SEVENTY thcusand dollars was the
amount risked on the late New York walk
ing match. Fools and their money are
soon parted.
THERE seems to be some abatement in
the yellow fever in Memphis. During the
past week there has been less than half-a
dozen fatal cases.
TILE blackguard of the sand lot, Denis
Kearney, is coming to Pennsylvania to
assist the Democracy. He comes on the
invitation of Hendrick B. Wright.
ON Saturday last Gov. Hoyt appointed
and commissioned William R. Leeds as
Clerk of the Court of Quarter Sessions of
Philadelphia, an office made vacant by the
murder of George Truman.
A FEW days ago the management of the
Louisville Zoological Association got Ilen
ry Watterson, of the (burr"( r-Journal to
make the opening address, and that night
the young hippopotamus died and the ze
bra broke out of his stall and kicked the
baby elephant to death.
WE have been doing business through
the advertising agency of H. I'. Hubbard,
of New Haven, Conn., for a number of
years, and always found him to do just as
he says. He drives a close bargain, but
he will pay a publisher promptly, every
cent he agrees to pay him. He deals on
the square, and stands a No. 1 with the
profession.
Two aeronauts, Profs. Cosgrove and E.
C. Williams, undertook to make a balloon
ascension from the Woodward Gardens, in
San Francisco, on Sunday evening last,
bat they had not got above the tops of
the houses when both were thrown out
upon the ground, crushing Williams into
a jelly, and rendering Cosgrove insensible
and injuring him so severely that he can
not possibly recover. So much for Sab
bath desecration.
THE nominees for Director of the Poor
and Jury Commissioner, Jacob Haffly and
Richard Wills, are gentlemen worthy the
support of every Republican in the county.
Squire Hailly will make one of the best
guardians of the poor that the county ever
had, while Richard Wills' large acquaint
ance throughout the county will enable
him to select the names of none but com
petent men for jurors. They should be
elected by an old fashioned majority.
PROF. JOIIN WISE, the well-known bal
loonist„ in company with George Burr,
made an ascension from St. Louis, on
Sunday evening, the 28th ttlt , since
which time nothing his been heard from
them, and it is feared that they have
shared the fate of poor Donaldson and
Grimwood, who were lost about three years
ago. Prof. Wise is 72 years old and has
made 462 ascensions. Some of his friends
think that the voyagers landed in the
Michigan pineries and that they will yet
turn up all right.
THE Ute Indians, on the 29th ult., at
tacked Maj. Thornburgh's command of
three companies of cavalry, in Bad Canon,
on Milk river, Colorado, and killed the
Major and thirteen privates. Capt. Payne,
of Thornburgh's command, entrenched
himself, and thought he could hold out
until reinforcements reached him. The
latest news from there is that Meeker, the
Indian Agent, and all of his employes have
been murdered. The indications are that
there will ba a general uprising of the In
dians and that a bloody war will ensue.
QUIET YAZOO.-Fifty colored voters of
Yazoo county, Mississippi, says the New
York Times, have published a card in
which they arc made to expiate on the
peace, concord and brotherly love now
prevailing in that region. Since the death
of that bold, bad man, Col. Dixon, whose
chief vice was his constant incitement of
negro uprisings, Yazoo county has been as
quiet as a country churchyard. At least
so the fifty colored voters say, or made to
say, in their admirable card. As the
signers of this interesting document ask
"all friends of the colored man" to circu
late their denial of the alleged disorders in
Yazoo county, their reasonable request
should be complied with. And it may be
added that, as life is sweet, even in Yaz)o
county, it was far better that the fifty
colored citizens should sign this card than
be taken out into the swamps "to see a
man."
THE RIOT LOSSES.-A decision was
rendered by the Supreme Court, in-Pitts
burgh, on Monday last, in the Allegheny
county riot test cases, which renders that
county liable. The opinion is written
by Justice Paxson, and expresses the views
of the entire bench with the exception of
Justice Sterrett, who did not sit at the
argument, and of the new Justice Green,
who will not take his seat on the bench
until November. The case in which this
decision is rendered is the county of
Allegheny, plaintiff iu error, vs. John
Gibson, Son Co , defendants in error.
This case was tried with others in Beaver
county, having been certified there front
Allegheny county, and was decided against
Allegheny county by the Beaver court.
The Supreme Court affirms the rulings of
the court below, and while the opinion is
written in this case other similar cases
tried also at Beaver are governed by it.
WE WANT TO BE JUST.
in au article last week,
takos strong grounds against the remark
urci , by us to th(7.• effect that Mr. Bergans,
Detnceratio candilate for Director of
the 1'07,r, was a member of the jury to
declare on the sanity of Jimmy Walls, and
informs us that the condition of Walls, at
the tinla of the finding. was very different
from what it afterwards became. Now, as
the says. we did not hear the tes
timony or the arguments of the counsel,
but we have heard no small amount of cen
sure heaped upon that jury fbr the finding
of that Verdict, all of which was entirely
unjust if the statement of the Monitor be
true, and as a matter of simple justice, not
merely to Mr. Bergans, but to the ether
gentlemen composing the jury, we are very
happy to be able to give them the advan
tage of tha information. If Walls was
sane at the time of the inquisition, and
became crazy afterwards, of course that
puts the ease in a very different light, and
the public censure for the finding was un
just.
Editor,
We would say to the Monit,»., so far as
we are concerned, that we arc not "hard
up" for argument against Mr. Bergans,
neither would we resort to any unfair
moans fur the purpose of defeating an op
ponent. That he is "esteemed as a true
and honorable man by all who know him,"
might be taken with some degree of al
lowance, and his record as a bitter and
uncomproa icing Democrat and sympathizer
with treason and rebellion during the war
for the Union, are facts in his history too
well known to recommend him very strongly
to the support of any honest Republican
in the county, especially when we have as
his political opponent as honest a man,
as thorough a Republican, as loyal a citi
zen, and one in every respect as well qual
ified for the office, as Jacob Haffly, esq.,
the Republican candidate, the man who
will lead Mr. Bergans some eight hundred
in November next.
WON'T SOME ONE HOLD HIM !
The editor of the Bellefonte Watchman
grows terrifically savage over the anticipa
tion of the election of a Republican Presi
dent in 1880, and intimates that nothing,
in that event, will appease his wrath, or
satisfy his stomach, short of revolution and
bloodshed. Hear him :
"But the American people will right this
great wrong in November, 1880, and, as
we said before, the man who takes his seat
as chief magistrate of this Republic on the
4th of March, be he Republican or Demo
crat, will have a claim to the office about
which there can be no dispute. Else blood
will flow, and in the throes of revolution
the red current from the hearts of usurpers
and traitors will be used to wash out the
stigma which a venal and corrupt party
has brought upon popular government."
Well, this is a bloody looking picture,
but we have an indistinct recollection of a
revolution being inaugurated once before,
by "usurpers," "traitors,"perjurers,thieves,
and murderers, all good Democrats, too, if
we are not mistaken, and they got more of
"the red current" than they bargained
for. But then we have no doubt the
Watchman man will feel better after blow.

NEWSPATOR IA L.-
The Shippensburg News last week
entered upon its thirty-seventh volume,
and celebrated the anniversary by an
enlargement and appearing in a new dress
of beautiful clear type The paper is first
class in all its appointments, and we are
pleased to note t his evidence of its pros
perity.
The October number of the enlarged
Conference \'rrrs has been received, and a
neater or cleaner looking paper would be
hard to find. The News is published
monthly at the low sum of 50 cents per
annum, and as the organ of Methodism in
this State, a copy of it should be found in
every Methodist family. It is well worth
the price asked for it. Address Rev. W.
Maslin Frysinger, Harrisburg, Pa.
THE Lewistown True Democrat and the
Democratic Sentinel have been consolida
ted under the name of Democrat and Sen
tinel, with H. J. Fosnot, editor and pub
lisher, and H. J. Walters, associate edi
tor. This is a sensible move, and cannot
fail to result beneficially. Mr. Sollenber
ger, who purchased the Democrat office
from Mr. Frysinger, has retired from the
paper, and is at his home in Sunbury very
sick. We wish the new paper and man
agement any amount of financial success,
but political death.
THE Philadelphia Press is of the opin
ion that nothing would add so much to
the prosperity of the country as a steady
advance in the price of wheat until it
reaches $1.50 per bushel at the place of
first delivery. When the farmers have
money to spend, all other classes get the
benefit of it. There is a good deal of
excitement in the wheat market at London
and Paris, occasioned by the apprehension
of a limited supply, but the rise in price
is said to be a device of speculators. .This
may or may not be true. Owing to the
short crop at home, the English have a
strong motive for keeping down the price,
and the English journals will be slow to
admit that a narked advance proceeds
from any other cause than speculation.
The expectation of a heavy foreign de
mand has set the Baltimore grain dealers
in a flurry, and the price of wheat. has
been forced up rather too rapidly for some
of the operators. Two firms have been
unable to fill . their contracts and have
suspended.
WE learn that our esteemed friend, T.
M. Conprobst, eqq , of Chicago, will be in
this place in a feiv' days, and has kindly
consented to deliver a temperance address
in Penn Street Hall, on next Monday eve
ning. He is a gentleman of ability, and
his many friends will fill the house to over
flowing on this occasion.
TIIE Democrats of Massachusetts, on

The Pensioners' Bureau
[IOW THE LIST OF PENSIONERS HAS IN
CIIEASED-THE MODE OF DOI NO BUST-
N ESS
Since the passage of the arrears of pen
sions act, fifty thousand rejected claims
have been presented again to the Gaut
missioner of Pensions. These, wi.ll the
number of unsettled claims now beta re the
Bureau, swell the total number to more
than one hundred and eighty thousand.
The number of claims received each week
since the passage of the act referred to,
averages twenty live hundred, which is
double the number that the Bureau can
consider under its present system of doing
business. The Commissioner receives
about twenty-two hundred letters daily
from inquiring pensioners, and over twelve
hundred letters are sent out daily in reply.
The pensioners now on the roll number
about one hundred and thirty five thous
and, the list having been increased more
than ten thousand during the year by the
settlement of claims of pensioners of the
war of 1812
Commis‘ioner Bendy has a plan to rad
ically change the present system of pay
ing pensions. It is to divide the United
States into districts, which shall be under
the control of a commission consistitur ' of a
surgeon and a skilled pension clerk, the
duties of whom shall be to attend to the
principal places in the district and bear
evidence in application for pensions. An
ingenious system of blanks has been sug•
gested for communicating with the central
office. The benefits of this plan would be
to subject old claims to a more rigid ex
amination, and to protect the government
and the pension fund against fraudulent
and unmeritorious claims, and at the same
time to greatly reduce the cost of the pay
ment of pensions. The first pension law
of which there is any knowledge in Eng
land was the act of 1592, which authorized
the payment of a weekly sum from every
parish for the relief of the sick, hurt, and
maimed soldiers or;marines, Commission
er Bendy goes back to the original princi
ple, and relegates the question of the right
to pensions to the people of the parish.
The witnessf.s would all be neighbors of
the claimants.

The Hanlan—Courtney Race
On Friday,the 17th of October,a great aquatic
contest will take place at Lake Chatauqua,
the greatest oarsmen living, Hanlan and Court
ney, contesting for a purse of $6,000, to be
known as the "HOP BITTERS PRIZE," which
is given by the Hop Bitters company, of [to
chester, New York,a company that has display
ed a wonderful liberality in encouraging ath
letic sports of the best class. The race will
not be a hippodrome, but a contest wholly
upon the merits of the two, and will create
more enthusiasm than any race that has ever
been pulled in this country, and extraordinary
time may be expected. The event will attract
men interested in athletic sports to the lake
from every section of the country, and arouse
a degree of enthusiasm that has probably nev
er been equalled. It is gratifying to lovers of
athletics.to see a firm like the Hop Bitters
company evince such an interest in sporting
matters, and when this class of people en.
courage sportsmen as they have l‘y running a
base ball club, and now by inaugurating this
race, it is certain that the standard will be
raised and sporting matters taken out of the
control of the gamblers, who aim to govern
all contests of this class. The men who help
to elevate our sports, and give real pleasure
to thousands, are in turn deserving of the
support of the public, particularly when they
present to it an article of real merit such as
are the celebrated Hop Bitters manufactured
by the company alluded to.
