DURBORROW & CO., tf] Iluntingdon, Pa THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTA- TIVES. On Saturday the Democratic members of the House of Representatives met in caucus, and agreed upon the following of of the Forty fourth Congress, which were elected : For Speaker, M. C. Kerr, of Indiana, on the third ballot. The vote stood as follows : Fir:4 ballot, Kerr, 71 ; Randall, 59; Cox, 31. Second ballot, Kerr, 77 ; Randall, 63 ; Cox, 21; Milton Sayler, 1. The third and final ballot was—Kerr, 90; Randall, 63; Cox, 7 ; Sayler, 1. For Clerk, there were ten candidates, but the contest was -principally between Adams, of Kentucky, and Crittenden, of Kentucky. Adams was nominated on the sixth ballot, the vote standing : S 9; Crittenden, 56; Whitehead, 11 ; Du boise, 2; Banks, 2. For Sergeant-at-Arms, J. G. Thompson, of Ohio, was nominated on the first ballot. For Doorkeeper, L. El Fitzhugh, of Texas, was nominated on the second receiving 89 votes, to 21 „for Parker, and 11 for Daily. For Postmaster, James Stuart, of Vir ginia, was nominated on the second ballot, receiving 91 votes. On the second ballot, 11.ev. J. G. Towns end, of the Episcop•il High Church, was nominated for Chaplain over Rev. Mr. Poinsell, Methodist, There are various reasons asigued as the cause of the defeat of Mr. Randall, for Speaker, and the selection of Mr. Kerrl chief of which are that Mr. Randall is a Protectionist and hard-money man, while Mr. Kerr is a free trader and inflationist ; that Mr. Randall was a "conservative" Democrat during the war, while Mr. Kerr was known to be what was called a "Cop perhead" and States Rights man ; that :31r. Randall took his back pay and put it where it would do the most good, while Mr. Kerr converted his into the Treasury ; that Mr. Randall is known to be in favor of aid to the Texas Pacific Road, and Mr. Kerr is not; that Tammany hall was op. posed to Randall, and in favor of Kerr.— The selection of Beer over Randall, there fore. indicatas what the views of a major ity of the Democratic party are on all these subjects. George M. Adams, selected 1;r Clerk, was a member of the Forty-second Con gress, and took his back-pay as naturally as did Randall. J. G. Thompson, selected for Sergeant at-arms, will be remembered as the Chair man of the Democratic State Central Com mittee in the great contest in Ohio last fall. Fitzhugh, of Texas, who w•as selected as doorkeeper, was Sergeant at-Arals of the Confederate Congress. CHAIRMANSHIP OF COMMITTEES. The election of Mr. Kerr to the Speak ership indicates the following selection of chairmen of the several prominent com mittees of the House. Ways and Means—Fern an do Wood, of New York. .ippropriations—Sainuel J. Randall, of Pennsylvania. Banking and C umnu—Samuel S. Cox, of New York. Elections.—L. Q C. Lamar, of Missis- sippt Pacific Railroad—J. K. Luttrell, of California. F. Thomas, of Maryland. War Claims—VT. S. Holman, of In- diana Commerce—Brastus Wells. of Missouri. Post Offices and Roads—W .

Gibson, of Louisiana. Railways and Canals—W. R. Morri son, of Illinois. Public. Buildings and Grounds—C. W. Milliken, of Kentucky. Pr.oF. PROCTOR denies that he is about to accept the chair of astronomy in the new Catholic Univershy at Kensington, England. He says his position in scien tific matters manifestly forbids his accept ing the professorship in question. Mr. Proctor thinks that the sects must come to the scientists and not the scientists to the sects. "Two hundred years ago men were thought to be defenders of the faith who taught that it was os3ntial for Chris tians to believe in the fixity and central position of the earth, but such teachings wrought incalculable mischief to the cause for which they were so zealous. In our own time a similar mistake is being made by persons who suppose that thereby they are serving religion. Their intentions may be excellent, but they are, in truth, the worst enemies of religion. He who teaches men to believe that certain scientific views, which are all the time gaining ground, are incompatible with particular religious doctrines, helps to make it certain that those doctrines will, before long, be widely discredited. He is the true enern of those doctrines, not the man who would disso ciate them from dogmas whose erroneous nature is daily becoming more manifest." 11)11',1 hiv it umi - }cr. ar };1:1701t don.

TUTS WEATIHUL AND DUST. ..:ingularly enough, the weather-wise who are so ready to forecast storms and hard seasons nevcr think it worth while to prophesy a mild winter. Such a pre diction would be vast comfort now. Win ter h a s e lb.,w e d Thanksgiving out of the way and settled upon our streets and squares with a horror of ice and dust.— There has been no thaw for days, the streets are dry and ground floe by the wheels, it is impossible to sprinkle them, and New Yorkers endure an Egyptian plague in a vicious dust that blows and searches to the inmost folds of their gar ments, and the ruin of metropolitan skirts and stockings. The weather has been skirmishing about zero since Thanksgiving. Freights from the West have been hurried to market before navigation closes, and enormous tows have been floating down the Hudson for a Week. The hurry was none too soon, either, for the last reports say the upper Hudson is closing, and one large float of canal and towboats is fast al ready. TUE WILSON PAGEANT. Spite of the cold, last Saturday, the sidewalks on Broadway from City Hall were filled with a deep line of people to see the procession escorting the remains of Vice !'resident Wilson. The crowd waited front three o'clock in the afternoon till after six, When the patsage of the military and civil cortege in the shadows and half lights was more impressive than it could have been by day. A wan's good deeds are the best flowers to heap upon his name, and there are many such to tell of Henry Wilson's. Half a dozen years ago Jennie Collins, the bright little Bos ton lecturer, was drawn to Washington to lecture by an inexperienced speculator, who managed all the arrangements so as to make a dead failure, not paying lecture fee, traveling expenses, or hall rent. The getter. up of the lecture was a poor woman, who fancied she might put a few dollars in her pocket by the stroke, but it left both manager and lecturer in a sad plight. Somebody went to Senator Wilson and told hint how badly they were off—the lecturer a girl from his State—and he quietly made up the gave Jennie a fifty dollar bill and sent the woman off consoled. lie was doing such things of ten. Be bad a habit of kindness. It might have been politic, bat there are few men who study to be politic who find it necessary to scatter kindness with so wide a hand. He was wise in kindness, too, and knew how to make a thousand go farther in doing god to the needy than many rich men wake their tens of thousands, THE HARD TIMES, People here are not entirely taken up with groWling at the hard times. Pro fessor Orton projects an expedition in South Actieric. , , having for its end to find a route tor a railroad that will shorten the journey from this port to the Cape of Good Hope a hundred days. Then we shall get our African diamonds, bullock's teeth and fine tooth combs in a state of gratifying freshness. Perhaps, this will enable the cities to spread their popula tion thinner, and there may be a place for such unfortunates as tho plain spoken one whose advertisement is cut from this day's Telegranz : "I want a situation at anything, that I can make a living at. Address F. S.. Tele gram office." There are a good many thousands want ing the same thing, and will be more be fige winter out. here is another of the same sort: "Man 28 years of age wantsemploy ment at anything ; very low wages. Ad dress M. P. K., Telegram office." This one speaks of anxiety too heartfelt to hide itself. Must have employment at once, or self and widowed mother will starve; will do anything that is honest; good refer ences. Address M. Stevens, Station A." The Telegram announces that it will publish notices for those wanting work each Sunday, free of charge, This, too, may be politic, but that doesn't hinder it from being a benefit. There are faithful creatures in the world waiting and eager to do work which some one else is waiting and needing to have them do. It is my belief that there is a place for every starv ing one of these crowded thousands, if one knew where to find it—a place where he is wanted just as badly as he wants to fill it, if the two could only be brought together. And if any man or woman feels like help inn to bring want to woe, for heaven's sake don't let him stop, because it may turn out the mostprofitable thing he could do. The need in every city is saddening, and the outlook for the winter frightful in view of the scarcity of employment, but let every one take hold and do his small part, and the work will go through as gallantly as the Sanitary Commission of old As a beginning 100 tickets, each en titling a homeless person to a night's lodg ing in the dormitory ip Prince street, have been sent to every west-side police station: All or most of the benevolent societies propose to unite in one association, to strengthen each other's hands, and system atize the work of public charity, as well as to combine against tramps and bummers who intend to support themselves without work by going from one aid society to another, in turn. Vagrants will find such organized scrutiny brought upon them as will make them as well known as the prin cipal thieves and pick pockets arc to the police. TUE OTHER SILK Everybody doesn't have to look on this ragged, dirty, heel-sore side of life in these times. There be hundreds so rich that, for safety's sake, they keep their accounts in a half dozen banks. A man walked in on a comfortably off old lady in this city, one morning, and found her crying. "Why ! what's the matter—any bad luck ?" "Why, here," said she, "my agent, has just sent in $30,- 000 this month, and I don't know where to invest it." Tip Singer Sewing Ma chine Company have a surplus of $24,- 000,000, and though the late Mr. Astor, d nvn t,n this" tivTe nre. among lily icad vrA thw4e. who would excil:mge thy. m.

Th, or. of the Singer Sewing _Machine, worked in the employ compoy tOr years. at a mlary of twenty dollars a week, awl is there now, getting rather more than twice that, while Singer, who appropriated his brains. made out of the money enough to keep a halt dozen wives, and gorgeous mansions all (over the world.— The inventor of the mower diod poor, though the compauics that took his invert tion all got rich. The new writing ma chine, or Type-Writer as it is named, which bids fair to rival the success of the te.wing machine, being as useful to business 113011 as it is to women, was sold by its first in ventor, a Wisconsin editor, who never yet got seven hundred and fifty dollars fair it. The advantage from an invention, io money way, increases with its distance from the brain which starts it. On a popular patent in view costing over a hundred dol lars, the inventor gets one dollar on each machine. Magnificent liberality ! Yet this was all that was offered him, and he was forced to take it. One of the curiosities of the day is the advertisement of a certain Madame in one of the leading dailies, who makes a liveli hood by removing superfluous hairs from the face. The announcement gives very fashionable hours, and is the first open ad vertisement noticed of a cosmetic artist, though the existence of such a guild is made known to passers on Sixth Avenue by door plates, which announce that with in .hair of any color is bleached and dyed a beautiful golden shade by a few applica tions. The necessaries of life are the first to feel the pressure of a bad business sea son. The vices and luxuries still flourish. A man may go without food, but never without whiskey and tobacco. So a wo man may go with insufficient undercloth ing, but she will find the money in some way to beautify herself. All these people .are doing a flourishing trade. How many of your readers did not see Barnum's great hippodrome, either last season or the season before ? Not many, I warrant. Well, the great show has come to an cud, its glory is departed and the "mammoth aggregation" is Ws persed. _ _ The entire concern was closed out at auction, last wrack, which was the occasion of heavy groans from the great showman. Barnum always dolt fairly with the people, and when he advertised English race horses, that was the kind he gave them. He imported thirty of the best blooded racers in England, and it was absurd the prices they brought. Webster, an English thoroughbred, which c.ist Brown $6OO, brought only $2O, and the id hers went at about the same price. Ono. only, went up as high as $l5O. The hi g hest pri..e paid for his magnificent draught horses was $250 for one team, the nthors going as low as $5O. There were 162 horses sold, good bad and indifferent, including the trick and ring horses, and ;iii they brought was s2o,ooo—not a tenth of what Barnum paid for them two years ago. The fact is, running horses have no value in this coun try, beoause the trot is the only gait rec ognized as valuable. Wcro Webster as good a trotter as he is a runner, he would have brought $lO,OOO. Barnum would have made money had he shipped the horses all back to - England. His other show property wont at quite as ruinous a sacriace. The suits of armor worn in the pageants, which cost $l5O each in Lon don, went for $7. Almost anybody might go into the show business on these terms. But Barnum - is rich and he doesn't mind it. He will do the same thing over in two years. Are collapsing, one after another, to the terror of the poor, who have their little all in them. There is fear and trembling among these people, for bitter experience has taught them that in these times noth ing is safe. This feeling of insecurity has induced runs that have weakened banks that ordinarily would have got through. But those that have broken were never entitled to confidence. They were never started on right principles. A dozen men get together and start a savings bank for the sole purpose of making a place for one respectable old gentleman as President, and two or three brisk young men as cashier, teller and book-keeper. A dozen good names figure as directors, but the business is all done by the old noodle and the young recklessnesses. The money taken in from poor men and women is in vested in real estate mortgages, at fancy prices, to accommodate the directors and their friends. Finally, the tight times come—those who have borrowed can't pay —the property security is sold, and lo! it has shrunk in value a half, and down goes the bank. The nice old gentleman and the brisk young men get out of the way— the directors regret their imprudence—the poor depositors go starve, and the thing blowsover. Good times bring another crop, and the game is repeated. There are over thirty of these banks in the city that have failed, or will, within a few weeks, and it is sickening to know that in most cases fraudis at the bottom of their unsoundness. It is a pity that lynch low can't avenge the poor deposi tors. Of all the sharks, these robbers of working men, women SDI children, are the most to be hated. Thousands of laboring people who depended upon their little ac cumulations in the banks to take them through the winter, find themselves, these. bitter mornings, without work or a dollar to carry them through the day. Until some of these swindlers are hung, lamp posts will not have been thoroughly util ized. Continues as dull as possible, and faceF, long enough in the fall, are longer now.— There will be no improvement till spring. A wholesale grocer just said to me "there ain't no trade. in nothin'." True, it' not elegant. PIETRO. NEW YORK, December 4.—A year and a-day from the time when a false report of the escape of Wi l liani M. Tweed from Blackwell's Itlarid startled the city, he has altogether genuinely erlcaped from the immediate custody of Warden Dan ham, of the Ludlow street jail, and disap peared. Warden Dunham went to police head quarters at 7:30 last evening and reported to Inspector Dilks that he left the prison with Tweed yesterday to go visiting, and that in the afternoon they went to Tweed's house, at the corner of Madison avenue and Fifty-ninth street. Tweed asked to bo allowed to go up stairs to see his wife, and went. He was gone ten minutes, ac cording to the report to Inspector Warden Dunham tben asked Tweed's son to go and call his father. Ike returned at once and said that his father was gone.= Dunham searched the house, found that Tweed had left his hat and overcoat and taken a slouch hat, and then came to po lice headquarters and announced the escape, and suggested that Tweed had gone off in a sloop. Telegrams were sent out at once, alarming every precinct, and detectives la f,rt.trio of $40.0,A0,0(' FORTUNES 3 N PATENTS, COSINIgTIC BARNUM'S SALES, THE SAVINGS 13ANKS BUSINESS Tweed Runs Away.

Orris S. Ferry, United Slates Senator fig Connectient,died ;It 1 late residence, in Norwalk, Sunday, 21stult. He had been in bad health for some time, and his death was not unexpected. Mr. Ferry was born in Bethel, Conn , Ang 15, 1823, and was graduated at Yale College in 18-14 He studied law, and was ad mitted:l to the Bar in 18-16. In 1847 he received the appointnrdt of Lieutenant. Colonel of the First Divi,;ion of the Con. I:ecticut Militia. In 1819 he was ap. 'minted Judge of Probate for the District of Norwalk. After serving two years in the State Senate, Ile was in 1856 appoint ed State's Attorney for the County of Fairfield, and retained that position until 1859. In 1859 he was elected a member of CongresF for the Drth District by a majority of 567 over Mr. Bishop, who lied defeated him by 18 votes at the pre vious election. In the House he support ed consistently the Republican party. and was a member of the Special Committee of Thirty-three on the Rebellious States. Mr. Ferry ardently espoused the Union cause at the ouibreak of the civ;l war, and • labored zealously in organizing troops.— He went into the field himself, and at tained by his zeal and efficiency the rank of Brigadier General. In May, 1863, Mr. Ferry was elected a United States Senator to succeed Lafayette S. Foster. The Republicans had at the time a majority of 51 on joint ballot. His .chief competitors were Senator Foster and Gov. Bud:high:lM. He attended the Loy alists Convention, held at Philadelphia, the saute year. During the latter part of the Reconstruction period opposed vigor ously Prcsideut Johnson, and was one of the Senators who vsted '-guilty" at iris impeachment. In 1872 Senator Ferry was re-elected by a coalition of Republicans and Demo crats., defeating Mr. Hawley, the candidate of the regular Republicans. Subsequent ly Mr. Ferry disnppointed his supporters by supporting the Administration, and op posing the Liberal candidates at the Presi dential election in 1872. E. F. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron.

These lands are heavily timbered with Sugar, Poplar, Cucumbef, Wild Cherry, Hickory, Ash, Locust, White Linn and Oak. A projected raihimil, of which fifteen miles arc graded, must run through these lands. They are, when cleared, among the very best lands for Grass, Oats, Potatoes, Corn, Rye, Wheat, etc., and not surpassed :or Wool growing and gen eral grazing purposes. Coal has been discovered on one of these tracts and Iron Ore on another. Address 'Rev. THOS. F. McCLURE, Caravillc, Huntingdon county, Pa.
