They will go over the Pacific Railroad
to California, and from thence they
will proceed by steamer to Sitka.

associated in that way. The truth
might have had more force than—
what- was written.
rts..Fenianism has not yet died ont
in Ireland—in spite of the opposition
of the Catholic Archbishop and the of
forts of the Queen's officers. Ono of
these terrible fellows was found at
Cork, a few days ago, in a printing
office.
lerAnother Caban expedition loft
New York recently—eight hundred
men with arms—who professed to be
going on a fishing excursion. They
set sail in a clipper ship. Most of the
recruits are said to be from the West
and have seen service under Sherman.
.The party in power always
works at a disadvantage, but not nec
essarily so. By a proper attention to
the wants and interests of all classes,
much of the disadvantage can be obvi
ated, but - it is too often neglected,
hence, the disaffection.
ierThe suspension in mining opera
tions in the Schuylkill, Lehigh and
Luzerno regions, is likely to come to
an end about the first of July. It is
generally understood and believed,
that the "strike" was manipulated by
some of the operators to advance the
price of coal.
. t@l'rhe old llndian Ring' say that
Gen. Grant's Quaker agents are not
doing very well with the Indian tribes,
because they bring rain with them
wherever they go. "Urn !" cried Hole
in-the-Bottle, a big Indian chief of the
Arapahoes, "Quaker no good. Bring
water. No whiskey."
ikirin 1857 a company of Germans
purchased in Los Angelos County, Cal.,
1,265 acres of land for $2 an acre.
There are now 1,000,000 vines grow
ing on the land, producing yearly
more than 100,000 gallons of wine and
10,000 gallons of brandy. The land
is now worth $630,000, and is rapidly
improving.
Sfir The Republican party in Phila
delphia' has made its nominations for
the Legislature. Six of the old "ring"
members were successful in securing
renominations, but they may have a
happy time securing a re-election, as
hundreds of good Republicans in the
city are determined to put an end to
corrupt "Legislative Rings" by per
mitting good Democrats to be elected
in place of corrupt men in their own
party.
• ite6A. large number of the National
Banks throughout the country, desig
nated as depositaries of public moneys,
have applied to the Treasury Depart
ment for permission to withdraw their
bonds filed as security for Government
deposits, and to be stricken from the
list of depositaries. The officers say
that the privilege heretofore enjoyed
by their Banks has been a detriment
to their business, and that the bonds of
which they are deprived can be put to
more profitable use.
O' The through express train from
Washington to Now York on Wednes
day night, to which was attached the
special car containing President Grant
and family, Secretary Boutwell and
others, met with a serious accident
just north of Annapolis Junction. The
engine struck . a cow on the track and
tossed her so that she fell under the
wheels of the baggage car. This ; with
two passenger ears following, was
thrown from the track, overturned and
shattered. Several passengers wore
badly injured. The President and
party fortunately escaped injury.
"United we Stand, Divide d we Fall, "
Such is our warning to the Republi
cans of Pennsylvania. United, we
can maintain the supremacy of Repub
lican institutions and Republican prin
ciples, for a score or more of yoars to
come. Divided our principles will fall
into the hands of our enemies, and all
our good works will be undone. Tho
institutions of our government cannot
afford the transfer, therefore wo must
remain united or the work of the last
eight years will be all lost—lost never
to be recovered. The principles we
represent aro the only true ones by
which the Government can be sustain
ed, and if we fail to agree, as a party,
then our enemies, and the enemies of
free government will triumph. This
must not be. We have too much to
loose and nothing to gain by what is
generally known as "local dissensions,"
not only here but in every district
throughout the State. We can see but
one and only ono way to obviate "local
dissatisfaction," and that is, by placing
in nomination our very best men, and
then all go to work, as one man, and
continue to work until the, polls close
on the second Tuesday of October
next. Principles, not men, should bo
our rallying cry.
It is of the utmost importance that
we should carry the State this fall.
We have interests involved of more
importance than the carrying of the
State, for the mere sake of carrying it.
No matter who may be nominated in
Philadelphia on the 23d inst., we must,
and by a proper effort, can elect any
man nominated for Governor by that
Convention. We do not care who that
man may be, so that be will carry out
the principles of the party that crush
ed the rebellion. We have men, strong
mon in the Republican party,who would
make good Governors, and it is. for
that Convention to give us such a man.
We hope that our friends through•
out the State will nominate their best
men for the Logislature,and so on down
to County Coroner, and then go to
work in earnest and victory will again
perch upon our banners. "United we
stand, divided we fall."
Par The Democracy do not know
exactly what course to pursue in ma
king a candidate for Governor. Cass
and Packer aro the most prominent
candidates, but there is a strong under
current in favor of General Hancock.
The friends of Hancock claim that he
is the most available, whilothe friends
of Cass and Packer on the other band,
claim that they have "gobs" of mon
ey, and will spend it freely to secure
an election. Hancock hesitates to al
low his name to be used, because he
holds a Major General's Commission
in the Regular Army for life, or dur
ing good behavior, and it is asking a
little too much to resign a "good thing,"
for the uncertainty of Governor for
three years, at a salary of $5OOO per
year, which will amount in the aggre
gate to little more than a year's sal
ary as a Major General. In our opin
ion Hancock would be very foolish to
accept a nomination from the Democ
racy at this time. His record as a sol
dier is good, but his record as a politi
cian would most certainly prove dis
astrous.
..The announcement from Wash
ington that there will be no Deficiency
bill presented to Congress next winter
from any of the Executive Depart
ments, is almost too good to be true;
but that way lies the path of judicious
reform. If the President will enforce
upon the departments the imperative
duty of spending only what they are
allowed to spend; he will work at once
a proper obedience to law, and a de
gree of economy that will prove sur
prising to everybody in (and out of)
Washington. The Secretary of the
Treasury has reduced the number of
clerks in his different bureaus to the
exact quota allowed by law. The
other departments aro preparing lists
of employees to be discharged at the
end of the fiscal year. If they can
only see to it, that the clerks remain
discharged and then require honest
work from those left in office, we shall
have two good results—the public ser
vice well performed, and the public
money saved.
Dar The Democrats may take a
gleam of hope from the recent else-
Mon in Washington, where some of
the colored men endeavored to prevent
those of their own race from voting
the Democratic ticket; but such a
gleam is rather meteoric. We do not
justify the action of the negroes in in
timidating their brethren from voting
against them. We have no doubt,
when they become more enlightened,
they will know better than to molest
a man because he' differs in opinion
from them. This is a lesson, however,
both races should learn; and White
Democrats and white Republicans aro
no exception. We know instances in
past political carnpaigns wherein the
excitement ran so high among white
politicians that bloody noses and black
ened eyes were the consecluenees of a
difference of opinion.
iffirA band of negroes are in the hab
it of meeting in a church' in the lower
part of the city of Louisville every
Saturday night, where they go through
a regular military drill. This move
ment by the colored men causes con
siderable excitement. We don't see
why it should. We may have a war
with England some day, and if a ne
gro wont fight for his "altar and his
fireside," then he ought to go whipped.
Let them drill ahead, say we.
Governor Geary and the Politicians.
A rumor was .prevalent last week,
that President Grant would appoint
Gov. Geary Secretary of the Navy, hi
place of Mr. Boric, Who would resign
immediately upon the return of the
President from his trip to West Point;
that Geary had-accepted the position
and that he would withdraw from the
contest for a re-nomination for Gov
nor. The whole story originated from
the fact that Geary had visited Wash
ington and had a private interview
with the President. A correspondent
writing from Washington on the 9th
instant, thus explains the object of the
Governor's visit to the Capital:
Geary, of Pennsylvania, arrived here
last night, and to-day had a private
interview with the President on the
coming fall election in that State.—
Geary is anxious to be re-elected, but
there is a considerable opposition to
him among some prominent republi
cans in Pennsylvania, such as Alex.
McClure. Not a few of the federal
office-holders in the Keystone State
have been induced to take sides with
McClure and his friendsagainstGeary's
nomination, on the ground that ho,can
not.carry the State, and they are bound
to go for some man who will lead the
party to victory, and thus sustain
Grant's administration. It is under
stood that Goary'S'mission here was to
complain to . the' President of the con
duct of these federal office-holders.—
Geary assured the President of his
popularity in Pennsylvania, and
inti
mated that ho was about the only
man who could carry the State next
fall againt the Democrats. Grant is
not indifferent to the success of the
republican ticket at the coming fall
elections, but whether ho will make
the naughty federal office holders ral
ly to the support of Geary against the
field remains to bo soon. Thus far he
has only given his usual promise, viz :
"To look into the matter." This is a
phrase invariably used by the Presi
dent on all occasions where his mind is
not fully made up."
THE LAST SPIKE —SO much anxiety
has been manifested as to whether the
"Golden Spike" was permitted to re
main where it was driven in the Paci
fic Railroad tie, subject to any lawless
depredator who might be about, that
we print the following to give relief:
"That silver bound tie and golden
spike ! Oh, the prose of it, the plain
prose ! The poetry of the operation,
the tie and the spike, have all vanish
ed. Ceremony is one thing and busi
ness another. After the silver bound
tie wrs laid and the golden spike driv
en in ,be Pacific Railroad—after they
'had got done praying,' and before ed•
itors East and West had fixed to their
satisfaction what these emblematic
articles represented, the tie and the
spikes (there were two of them) were
quietly taken up again and deposited
with Nevada's silver hammer in a car
and sent to San Francisco, while a
common wooden tie was substituted
and the 'last rail' secured to it by a
common iron spike."
sai-When Longstreet was a rebel
and at the head of an armyof rebels,the
Democracy called him a "bully fellow,"
but since be has repented of his fol.
ly and sworn renewed allegiance to his
country, and left the ranks of the rot
ten horde, these same Democrats see
in him one of the very worst of un
hung scoundrels. Jeff. Davis, Robert
E. Leo, Johnston, Forrest and Semmes
are ever objects of their idolatry be
cause they are "unrepentant rebels
still," and despise the government they
tried so bard to destroy and which is
so merciful to them.
liteihe Lewistown .True Democrat
says it is ui,derstood that Wm. A. Wal
lace will decline 'being the Chairman
of the Democratic State Central Com
mittee any longer, and adds that it
would have been better for the party
if he had declined two years ago. Now,
to say tho least of it, that is the un
kind cut of all, after Sir William has
sacrificed principle, honor, reputation
—all—everything—that the Democra
tic Party might have a decent burial
in this State.
Irishmen in Pennsylvania
"who favor universal suffrage, protec
tion of American industry, and tho lib
eration of Ireland," are called upon in
an address from the President of the
Irish Republican Association of the
State, to choose dologates-to the Con
vention of Irish Republicans, which is
to be bold in Chicago on the 4th of
July. The address endorses Senator
Sumner's speech, , and commends his
position on the Alabama question to
Irish Americans.
FOREIGN AND HOME TRADE.--In the
matter of the foreign trade in bread
stuffs, it may surprise many persons
to know what a small proportion it
bears to the production of the country,
or to the amount distributed through
the groat internal linos of communica
tion to all parte of the country. The
production of corn and wheat in:the
United States in the year 1808, ie OA
timated at 980,000,000 bushels, or
about twenty-eight bushels per hoad
to the population. Rye, oats, barley
and buckwheat carry the aggregate
crop to about 1,400,000,000 of bushels.
The total export last year of wheat,
corn and flour (reducing barrels of
flour to bushels) was only 18,000,000
of bushels. It will bo seen, therefore,
how very important the internal com
merce of our country is, compared
with its foreign traffic.
The Republicans made a clean sweep
of the city, at the charter election in
the National Capitol, on Monday last,
carrying every Ward, and electing
every one of their candidates for city
officers, Aldermen, Councilmen, and
Assessors. Seven members of the
Board of Aldermen hold over from last
year, of whom only two are Demo-
crats, which 'makes the City Govern
ment rather Republican. ,
The largest elephant in the World
has arrived at Now York and is stop,

HON. ANDREW G. CURTIN.
PHILADELPIIIA, Juno 12.—City Coun
cils having tendered to Hon. A. G.
Curtin the use of Independence Hall
for a farewell reception of the citizens
previous to" his departure to assume
his duties as Minister to Russia, to-day
was set apart for the event.
The Mayor and City Councils as
sembled in the Select Council Cham
ber at two o'clock, formed in proces.
eion and marched to Independence
Trail. Governor Curtin entered a few
minutes afterwards, under escort of a
committee of City Councils, while the
Liberty Cornet Band, which was sta
tioned in the vestibule, performed,
"Hail to the Chief." In the hall the
members formed themselves in a semi.
circle_on the eastern side of the room.
SPEECH OF MAYOR FOX
Mayor Fox addressed Governor
Curtin as follows :
"I speak the sentiments of all the
members of this municipal govern
ment when I say that it gives us un
alloyed ploasuro, Governor Curtin, to
bo afforded this opportunity, publicly,
to testify our respect and. esteem to
you, sir, who have so ably administer
ed the affairs of our State as its ]so.
cutive; who have so earnestly devoted
yourself to the alleviation of the suf.
ferings of the gallant soldiers who
gave themselves to the country in the
late terrible contest for the supremacy
of tbo Constitution and laws, and to
you who now go abroad as the dis
tinguished 'representative of our coun
try to a distant Government.
' "You loave us, sir, appreciated by
your fellow-citizens as a faithful ser
vant, and by many of them as a warm
personal friend.
"We hope that your voyage may be
safe, that your mission. will redound
to the honor and glory of our country
and that in God's providence, you,
with all you take with you, in your
family circle and official connection,
may, after finishing this important
public trust, be permitted to . come
back in the enjoyment of good health,
and you happy in the consciousness of
having served your country in a very
important manner."
RESPONSE OF MR CURTIN.
Gov. Curtin responded as follows :
About -to leave the country, I feel
deeply. the honor conferred upon me
by the city authorities in tendering to
one the use of this eacred room to meet
such of my friends and fellow-citizens
who desire to call and say farewell. I
owe many obligations to the City
Councils for such a distinguished priv
ilege, and to you, sir, as the Chief
Magistrate of this great city, I offer
heart-felt thanks for the complimen
tary. and kind manner in which you
conveyed to me the resolutions of the
Councils, and for the personal and of
ficial welcome you give me to this
place. Feeling a just pride as a Penn
sylvanian in the beauty and prosperi
ty of this our commercial emporium;
knowing, as.l. do, the fidelity and pa
triotic devotion of its people to the
Government in its day of deep distress
and anguish, 1 would not have the in
stincts of a common humanity if my
heart did not well up in gratitude to
you and them for many evidences of
affection lam receiving on the eve of
my departure. In this sacred hall,
dedicated to liberty, this Mecca of
Ameridan freemen, I pledge myself to
maintain, with all the gifts it has
pleased Providence to endow me, the
relatioris of friendship which have
ever existed between our country and
the groat Government to which I am
accredited; and this is a fittin g place
and this a proper occasion to declare
to you, sir, to the co ordinate authori
ties of the city, and to the people, that
I will try to uphold and maintain the
interests and the honor of my coun
try. •
At the close of the speech the doors
were thrown open to the public—
Quite a crowd had gathered in front
of the hall, and the hand shaking com
menced vigorously.
The reception continued until 4
o'clock, and previous to that time a
largo delegation of the Grand Army
of the Republic paid their respects to
Mr. Curtin. • •
TUE BANQUET
The banquet given to Mr. Curtin
this evening was a very brilliant affair.
It came off at the Academy of Music
which was decorated in a style of ele
gance never surpassed upon any simi
lar occasion. The committee of ar
rangements having charge of the affair
left nothing undone which would add
to its eclat.- Mark Hassler bad been
engaged for several days in rehearsing
an efficient orchesta, and his selee•
tions of music were such as added
greatly to the pleasures of the guests.
Many distinguished gentlemen of
the country were present at the ban
quet, to show by their presence their
appreciation of the distinguished ser
vices of Governor Curtin to the coun
try during the war.
PHILADELPHIA, Juno 13.—The Board
of Directors of the' Union League of
Philadelphia will give a dinner to Ex-
Gov. Curtin and suite on Monday af
ternoon at the League house.
The joint committee of City Coun
cils on the reception of Mr. Curtin
have procured-a special car from the
Pennsylvania railroad company, and,
with Mayor Fox, will accompany Mr.
Curtin to Now York on Wednesday.
Ho sails for Europe on Thursday,
when they propose to accompany him
down New York bay.
A MAD llousE.—The West Chester
(Pa.) _Republican of yesterday says :
On Saturday last a horse owned by
Sewell Chambers, a colored man liv
ing in Thornbury township, was seized
with hydrophobia. The animal had
been confined in a field near Darling
ton's Corner, but by some means got
out of the enclosure into the public road
It attacked a team belonging to Wil
liam Farrell, who was engaged in haul
ing stone to the railroad.' The driver
of the team succeeded in driving off
the mad animal, and it is not believed
that it injured any of the horses at
tached to the team. When the fit was
off the poor brute would become very
weak—stagger and fall. When the
spasms returned it would again_ rise
and attack everything in its road.
Several persons were chased on to the
tavern porch, and ono individual nar
rowly escaped 'being bitten. In its
rage to bite, itsown tongue was nearly
bitten off. The animal was finally se
cured in a lot, where it died during
the night, in great agony. It was'a
valuable horse, and was used by Mr.
Chambers in threshing grain, with a
machine, through the neighborhood.
What is still more terrible to contem
plate, is the fact that this horse is sup
posed to have been bitten by a dog be
longing to Mr.' Elias Baker, that was
thought to be mad, and bit two per
sons some three weeks since—an ac
count of which was published in this
paper. This supposition is strength
ened by the fact that Mr. Baker's dog
bit two other dogs on the farm of Mr.
George •Ftiueett, where the horse was
kept. The dogs of Mr. Faucett were
killed immediately after. The two
young men aho were bitten, as well
as their immediate friends, aro much
distressed over these fact's; but it is
hoped that the means resorted to in
their cases will prove effectual against
this malady.
Eighteen in favor to one against is
the vote of the Methodists of Philadel
phia on the question of lay delegation.
Nineteen churches have been heard
from so far. This great and radical
change in the ecclesiastical organiza
tion of the Methodist church of this
country may already be considered as
an accomplished fact.
