THE WAR ENDED,
At last the welcome news has reach
ed us that the terrible war in Europe
between France and Prussia has come,
to an end by the surrender of the
French army under Marshal .111acMa
hon to Ring William, and the arrest
of Emperor Napoleon. A month and
a half gone, but not without witness
ing a largo and woll•contested battle
field on the western border of France,
where now lies thousands of good sol
diers, a sacrifice to the ambition of
war thirsty monarchs. low many
have been killed and wounded in that
short month (the battle of Saarbruck
occurred on the 2d of August) has not
been told; but enough have fallen to
blast the name of the Emperor, who
has mot the fate he so justly deserved:
Napoleon, humiliated• by his defeat,
scorned by his countrymen, denoune t
ed by the people of every clime; may
now live in obscurity to count tho cost
of the struggle he precipitated, and
ruminate over the folly of kings seek
ing to make their name imperishable
on the gory field of battle. And was
not the prussian king equally anxious
to havo his posterity, honored on the
same bloody arena ? What did his
message concerning "Our Fritz," the
Crown Prince, mean ? Was ho not
anxious to spread btoadcast his deeds
of daring on the battle field, so as to
add new lustre to the name of the pre
sent dynasty . ? The king of Prussia
may glory too much over the down
fall of NapoloOn, and if his ambition is
not tempted to try other fields, it will
be well with him and his people.
There aro over ono hundred ladies
announced to take the field as lecturers
the coming season. It was left for
free America to test the ability of wo
men in this field, and with such favor
do they meet that we would not be
surprised 'to hear of a larger number in
future years. Of course, the most of
them have the one topic "Women's
Rights," and if the naughty men do
not get enough of Caudle lectures this
winter, it will be because they won't
listen to what the fair orators have to
say.
Our candidates for State Sena

speetable gentlemen. Gen. McCoy of

dates last year, and with 'Mr. Swoop,

In addition to the resolutions for
mally adopted, the convention unani
mously put forth the following
ADDRESS
In presenting the Hon. Daniel 7.
Morrell to the voters of the 17th Con
gressional District, as a candidate for
re-election to the House of Represen
tatives, the members of the Confer
ence feel that they are giving effect to
the true theory of Republican Govern=
ment.
Signifying his wish to devote him
self to his private business, and refus
ing to 'make any effort to secure a re
nomination=leaving that question en
tirely to, the people they have in
every county of the District,, with a
full knowledge and appreciation of hie
publio services, called upon him to
forego his own wishes and again give
them the benefit of his industry, expo
riened and practical ability, by serv
ing them for another term in the Na
tional Congress.
Such an endorsement has far more
significance than any formal resolu
tions wo could pass.
Upon the record of these public
services, we place him before the peo
ple in response to their own call.—
They have found him the tried and
faithful friend of the government dur
ing the dark years when armed trea
son sought refuge and 'allies in its
counsels; the constant supporter of the
nation's credit against all attempts at
repudiation ; the able and efficient ad
vocate of the interests of American
labor in all its branches, mechanical,
manufacturing, commercial and agri
cultural; the fearless expositor of the
fallacies and misrepresentations of the
agents of "free trade" seeking to de
prive the American laborer of employ
ment, and the farmer of his home
markets without restriction to the
products of the pauper labor of Europe;
the friend of President Grant's admin.
istration of all measures by which it is
relieving the people of the burdens of
taxation,
and gradually paying the
National debt:; the true representative
over at his post and watchful of the
interests of his constituents; and as
such wo believe they will not only se
cure their own interests but confer a
benefit upon the country at large by
his triumphant re-election.
Tho following Resolutions, offered
by Gen. S. M. Green, were unanimous
ly adopted :
RESOLTJTIONS
Resolved, That the co-operation of
President Grant in all measures tend.
ing to elevate and strengthen the en•
slaved and oppressed of 'all nations
justly entitles him to the support of
the good and true men of all parties.
Resolved, That the administration of
President Grant meets with the hear
ty approval of the Republican party
of this District, and that it unequivo
cally commends the economical policy
pursued in financial affairs.
Resolved, That our confidence in the
statesmanship and patriotism of Hon.
John Scott, is strengthened by his
brief record in the United States Sen
ate, he having proven himself a great
champion of the best interests of our
Commonwealth, and by his earnest
and eloquent appeals in behalf of
American industry be has won the res.
pea' of all right thinking men.
Resolved, That, NV 11 iI o recognizing
the justice and wisdom of neutrality
by our Government in the deplorable
struggle now waging between France
and Prussia , ---•two nations with which
our own is on most friendly terms, wo
nevertheless cannot refrain from giv
ing expression to the earnest hope
that it may result in the spread of Re
publican principles and the elevation
of the people.
On motion, adjourned.

Deaths by Lightning.
Additional facts about the destruc
tive lightning stroke at Kingston, N.
Y., on September Ist, have just been
published. The first bolt that killed
any one came at eight o'clock. Five
persons were immediately slain and in
the course of the following day five
more died from injuries they received
at the time. Forty persons have ta
ken shelter from the storm under a
small willow tree. This trop was
next struck, but at about four. feet
from the ground the lightning left it
and killed three of the party, and
stunned all: It at once leaped to a
spot about fifty feet to the south and
killed two persons of another party.
Ono of tho most curious things about
the whole affair was that only colored
people were fatally injured. A white
man who was in the crowd of forty was
knocked twenty feet from whore ho
was standing, and his umbrella was
torn to stripes, but ho sustaining no'
further injury. A boy was standing
near him had an India rubber ring on
his finger with a small iron shield riv-
Rod to it. Tho shield and rivet were
melted and his shoes torn off and yet
ho escaped with his life. The state
ment that the largo • circus tent was
struck was a mistako, though all who
wore inside were more or loss affected
by the lightning, while the boasts were
terribly excited and made most. hide
ous yells and cries. •
Three Men Killed by Lightning
During the terrific thunder storm
of Monday afternoon, a terrible calam
ity occurred at Freeport, Armstrong
county. A gentleman named Groe•
ing, with his two sons, Louis and
Charles, in company with the Sexton,
visited a Church yard for the purpose
of selecting a spot in which to bury a
brother of Mr. Groeing's, then lying
dead in his house. Upon the storm
arising, the party sought shelter un
der umbrellas, and had been but a
moment grouped together when a
fearful bolt of lightning struck them,
instantly killing the Sexton,llines,and
the • two brothers. Mr. Groeing was
stunned, but when ho awoke to a con
sciousness of the terrible calamity
which had befallen him, his feelings
can be bettor imagined than written.
All the parties are well known citi
zens, and the town is mourning for
this complication of misfortunes which
has fallen upon ono of its most esteem
ed families.
The Great Canada Fires,
A correspondent writes to the Ham
ilton Times : "I came out this morning
from Ottowa. The country on the en
tiro lino of the Ottawa and Prescott
railway is on fire on both sides, all the
way from Ottawa to Prescott. Noth
ing can surpass the gloom which has
settled over Central Canada at the ter
rible visitation through which this
part of the country is now passing—
No one in this district has seen the
sun for days. Some idea may be form
ed of the terrible magnitude of the con
flagration now in progress when you
consider that it has now overrun, and
in many places totally devastated, an
area of at least over two thousand four
hUndred square miles.. Of the amount
of damage done oven the faintest esti
mate cannot be formed.
I passed through two miles of rail.
way in the' township of .osgoode on
Saturday., The flames nearly reached
the windows of the cars in some pla
ces, and some panes of glass were bro
ken by the heat along the way. I
have seen farmers sitting dejected and
in a state, of stupefaction with the
smoke from the smouldering remains
of their devastated farms and home
steads. The worst feature is that the
soil itself is destroyed in many places
by the fire.

Great Prussian Victory,
NEW YORK, Sept. 1-3 A. Al —The
Tribune, Times and Herald have all
specials from London confirming the
defeat of MacMahon by Prince Fred
erick Charles, near Beaumont,twenty
five miles from Mezieres. This report
comes not only from special corres
pondents in the field, but from an offi
cial despatch of the Prince, who says,
after two days' bard fighting, ho at
tacked and drove MacMahon back to
wards the Belgian frontier and kept
up pursuit uetil late at night. The
battle-field was so extensive that ho
had not time to estimate the large
number of guns and spoils captured.
The .French encampment was among
tho trophies. Ile was driven toward
Sedan. French adviecs say MacMahon
was at Mezieres.
The Surrender of MaeMahon's Army
Lorniorr, September 3.—A despatch
from Sedan via Bouillon, September 2,
midnight, says the die is cast so far as
MacMahon's army and fortunes of the
empire are concerned. All is over
with Franco. I have already tele
graphed briefly facts of battles of Tues
day and Wednesday, each day's fight
ing being terrific. The results at the
close of each day were favorable to the
Prussians. Thursday at daylight
showed the. French forces reinforced
and occupying a strong elevated posi
tion from Baziller extending down the
railroad . to Deuzy, and thence to Nan•
cy on the lino of the Monson railroad.
At- five o'clock the Prussians recom
menced the battle, making a simulta
neous attack on the French front and
left flank. The fighting was at first
confined to the artillery, both armies
firing incessantly, the French evident
ly having a weaker force of guns than
the Prussians. At noon a fierce at.
tack was made by the Prussian infan
try at Danzy, with the object of weak
ening the French center, but, after
tremendous fighting, the Prussians fell
back. A pause seemed to take place
at one o'clock, the firing being less in
cessant, but was only a prelude of yet
fiercer assaults. At two o'clock a si
multaneous movement was made along
the whole Prussian lino, the infantry
charging on- - the French guns.
At three o'clock the French lines,
which had been previously firm, wav
ered, and immediately - thereafter
broke. The battle then became a rout.
MacMahon is reported seriously woun
ded. The roads now present a terrible
tt , peet. 'The - French left everything,
firing in every direction and throwing
their arrns, The Prussians pressed
forward, bent upon cutting off their
retreat toward Belgium. The Prus
sian troops used the bayonet with ter
rible effect. -Night closed on the rout
and pursuit,Jeaving the Prussians ga
thering in Urge numbers around Se
dan. The Emperor remained at Sedan
throughout the battle.
At half-paSt two o'clock a message
was sent to the 'Emperor at his head
quarters, advising him to fly to Belgi
um, but he as too ill to undertake the
journey.
This morning the Prussians pre
pared to attack Sedan, which was not
in condition to resist. At twelve a
party of officers, headed by General
Wimpffen, left Sedan, bearing a flag of
truce. It was received by tho advanc
ed guard and conducted to the Prussi
an headquarters, where the General
formally surrendered the French army
and fortress to King William. The
French army also bore a letter from
the Emperor Napoleon to King Wil
liam, stating that ho desired to surren
der himself, hot having any command.
The formal capitulation took place at
half past one o'clock. It is said the
Emperor will be sent under a strong
escort to Madgeburg, but his destina
tion is a secret: A large number of
French escaped into Belgium.

ANINDEPENDENT CANDIDATE
to tiro Ropubli.ll voters of Huntingdon county:
I announce myself as an "Independent Candidate" for
Associate Judge, and ask the support of nil honest and
independent men who hate rings and "ring" candidates.
Having stood by the Republican party from its birth up
until its betrayal of the people, in the fraudulent adop
tion of the Fifteenth Amendment; I fool that 1 should
have some claims upon the true men of that party.
I stand upon the Chicago platform, upon which Gen .
Grant was elected ; but I utterly repudiate the fraud and
outrage by which the right of nogroos to vote has been
declared apart of the fundamental law of the laud. blot
ting out a part of the Constitution of our own State,
which as °filters we aro sworn to support.
If elected, I will endeavor to discharge my duties faith
fully, and I flutter myself thatmy profession in life has
not unfitted me for the position, besides, it would often
bo found a great convenience to have au Absociato Judge
