jyEvery day we see new indications
of the growing popularity of the gallant
soldier and honeat citizen, Gen. Wra.
McCandlesa. It is not hia war record
alone, though fair that record be, that ia
gaining him such hosts of friends among
the people. It is his character as a man
and a citizen ; his many private virtues
and his stern integrity which endear
him to the people and render him in
vulnerable to Radical attacks. Added
to all this, bo is a native Pennsylvanian,
and not an Ohio carpet-bagger, like his
competitor, Dr. Stan ton. General Me-
Candless is well acquainted with the
varied interests of our Slate, and will
do everything in his power to promote
them. Dr. Stanton, on the contrary, is
a native of Ohio, and from his brief
residence in this State can know little
of our people or their interests. He is
a professional office-hunter; and allured
here by the fortunate career among us
of his'relative, Edwin M. Stanton, he
hopes to fare as well as did that lucky
carpet-bagger. But our people will not
minister to his ambition by electing him
to office, but will, on the 10th of next
October, elect to the high and responsi
ble station of Auditor General of this
State, that honest man and pure patriot,
Gen. William McCandlesa.
Evans and his loyal backers in this
State, the leaders of the Radical party,
nave cneaiea tine ot»u= fiS
•That fact ia upon record. It cannot be
.disproved. “In regard to this particu
lar cape,” says the Washington Patriot,
“a double fraud was committed. Many
of these ‘war claims/ paid to Pennsyl
vania, aslo other ‘loyal* States, had no
legal existence whatever. They had
been ‘disallowed/ or, in plain terms,
rejected, for want of any foundation,
and so remained in the pigeon-holes of
the accounting officers, until a‘Bing*
was formed to carry them by partisan,
personal and corrupt influences. That
4 Ring* embraced the officials of the
State, leading politicians in Philadel
phia, as well as hankers, editors, job
bers, and clerks in the Treasury, here.
They are all well known, and they can
be named Sf necessary. In one or two
cases of officials, threats of removal
were employed by thin powerful com
bination, to compel acquiescence in the
fraudulent allowances. All tho parties
engaged in tho conspiracy are promi
nent Radicals, some of them are now
holding high positions in this city and
elsewhere.”
We believe every Republican In the
country, not in a government office,
heartily despises Grant, is ashamed of
his administration, and would rather
not have him as a candidate for another
terra. Let them remember that he
despises them and looks enly to the of
fice holders' and the military for his
nomination. The only way to drive
him from the field is to defeat the Rad
ical candidates this fall. If Stanton and
Beath are elected it-will be taken ns an
endorsement of Grant, of the thieving
jobs, military interference 'with elec
tions, selling offices for money, bribery,
amnesty, to thieves, double salaries to
office holders, stock gambling by the
President’s family, subsidies to rail
roads, horse racing, and another four
years’ jolly junketing.
Tub New York. Nun says: “On the
3d of Match; just before ho ascended the
Capitol steps to take the oath of office,
General Grant accepted a gift of $64,000.
On the- sth of March, with the pledges
of his inaugural lingering on his Ups,
he appointed the largest contributor to
this fund. Secretary of the Treasury, and
the two most active agents in raising it,
Sub-Treasurer and Collector of the Cus
toms at New York." As Americans we
blush to acknowledge the truth of the
above paragraph. No other President
lias left such a record to darken arid
Mast his fame.
jgy-Governor Geary repeatedly wiled
attention to the danger of only taking
$50,000 security from tlia State Treasur
er, while he frequently was intrusted
with thecustody of a million of dollars.
At the same time, the Governor only
required his special agent Evans, to give
a bond for $lO,OOO, and then gave him
power of Attorney to collect two or
three millions. He knew, also; that
Evans had over $300,000 of money be
longing to the State.
Tub Lewlatowu Democrat has been
much enlarged andotherwlseimproved.
We are glad to geo this evidence of the
prosperity of so deserving a Democrat
aa Mr. Henry Fryslnger. Hia paper is
worthy the generous support it evident
ly receives and is a credit to the party
fia well as to himself.
THE SENATOR “ RISEN TO EXPLAIN.
Our amiable friends- of the Hp-ald
sooin muchmoro willing togivo the use
of their columns to Democrats than to
Republicans. Prom their own show
ing, when a certain Democrat, whom
they endorse as “ a gentleman of abi
lity,standing and attainments,” handed
them “a communication relative to the
Democratic ticket lately nominated In
this county, and the connection of the
Volunteer with its nominations and
candidates,” they toll us: >; Wo inserted
it, of course.’ ’ But when a very respec
table gentleman of their own party
proposed to insnrt a communication Ip
reference totheirSenntorlal nomination,
they didn’t “ insert it of course,” because
the editor of tiio .Herald “ believed it wag
likely he would be nominated ” for that
position. .
The editor seems to be as much
ashamed of the communication hs the
“Democrat of ability, standing and at
tainments” must have been himself, for
the former wades through,-a column
editpriairtodisowriitaauthprahtiv-while"
the latter hadh’t the moral courage to
sign his name to it. Surely if the writer
was “a Democrat of ability, standing
and attainments,” he could have wield
ed a greater influence with his, party
by appearing In print over his own
signature, than by an anonymous com
munication; and from the fact that the
signature was suppressed, some persons
might infer either that the editor of the
Herald regarded the author’s name as a
source ofweaknoo°*«ther than strength,
or that the,, author himself was just
enough of a coward to stab in the dark.
Now “ the Volunteer people ” do not
“know that the communication was
written by a Democrat," neither can
we guess the author, but the Herald can
readily set our doubts atTest by giving
us his name; and we pledge ourselves
to give it an ■extensive circulation, for
the benefit of the gentlemen who were
nominated, and their two thousand
friends who voted for them. Of course
no “ Democrat of ability, standing and
attainments” would object to such a
reasonable proposition as this, unless he
Is too great a coward to father his own
bantling.
Speaking of the Democratic ticket, we
said:
“ Had it been a ‘set up’ affair, as was
the Republican ticket, there might have
been just cause for complaint. What we
mean, the following amusing incident
will illustrate : A week or bo before the
Republican Convention,.a leading Re
publican entered the Herald office with a
communication recommending the nom
ination of a prominent Republican of this
town for the position of State Senator.
One‘of the editors glanced over the com
munication, and then replied ; 1 Well,
this is all very well, but I believe it is
generally understood that I am to be the
nominee The gentleman remarked that
such might have been the understanding
.around the Herald office, but he had not
heard of it before. .He left the office, and
the Communication never appeared."
The Herald replies:
“ The material part of this is untrur.
On the Tuesday before our delegate elec
tion, a gentleman who was in the office,
said to us that he 'intended to write a
communication recommending Captain
Porter for State Senator, na he was a good
man. and no one had yet been spoken of
for that nomination.* We replied that
our name hod been mentioned oh a can*
didate, and we believed it was likely we
would be nominated, but that Captain
Porter was a good man, and if a com
munication recommending him were
written we would insert It. The gentle
man said be had not beard our name
mentioned, and with this the conversa
tion closed. He prepared no communica •
itvn, nor Dad to one with him,..and if h»
or any other Republican in county
had presented a communication recom
mending anyone for nomination for that
position, it would have been published
cheerfully.”
It is astonishing what a Dig difference
there is sometimes ’twlxt twedledum
and tweedledee. The "materialpart"
of our allegation, which the Herald
charges to be untrue, was simply that
a gentleman called at the Herald office
to have q. communication Inserted re
commending a certain other gentleman
for State Senator, and frorp the manner
in which the proposition was received,
the communication was not published.
Any reader of average intellect, by
comparing the two passages, will see
that the material part of our charge is
corroborated out of the Herald’s own
mouth, and the attempt to screen its con
duct behind the plen that the gentleman
referred to “ bad prepared no commu
nication,” butsirnply “ intended to write
one,” scarcely rises to the dignity of a
respectable quibble; for the communi
cation would undoubtedly have appear
ed, if the editor hadn’t thrust his own
name forward as the probable nominee,
and thus placed his visiter in a position
where, to say the least, it was indelicate
to press the proposition further. After
this, the Herald tells us, “the gentleman
said he had not heard oijr name men
tioned, and with this the conversation
closed.” We don’t, wonder—for no more
efficient method coijid have been adopt
ed to bring it to a close.
This allusion to the nomination of our
friend over the way has by no means
been a grateful task to us, but when his
Journal charged us with dictation in the
nomination of the Democratic ticket,
we felt it our duty to remind him that
“people who-live in glass houses should
n’t throw stones," For him personally
we entertain the kindest feeling, and if
ever bereft of our reason, and permitted
to blunder into the Radical ranks, wo
know no one whom we would more
cheerfully support. As the late lament
ed Arlemus Ward would say “ For
the people who like that kind of a Sen
ator, he would’ be just the kind of a
Senator such people would like,” but ns
for us, we must confess the kind isn’t
much to our fancy.
Wo trust our amiable friend will not
take it amiss if .we suggest that ho is
somewhat premature in already assum
ing the Senatorial mode of expression,
"and “ rising to explain” so frequently.
The. fable tells u* of an old heh who
counted her chickens before tijey were
hatched—and they ail turned out to be
ducks, and took to the water, leaving
her tranship disconsolate upon lira shore,
cackling aloud her surprise and indig
nation. And yet we do not wish to
seem unreasonable. It will bo some
time after this when our friend “ rises
to explain" a» “the Senator from Cum
berland," and |t would be unkind to
deprive him of this I luxury pf j) little
side-show of his own—a mimic Scp.nte
Chamber where be may. Mrhm to ex
plain” as often as hla modesty will per
mit, without Interfering lit, all with t|)P
public business. The Senator from
Cumberland has the floor— Silence /” 1
Tub Democratic ticket Is received
with every evidence oi satisfaction hy
the people of the county. The Radical
leaders may “ rack their brains” for a
plan to defeat it, but it ia ali iu ygjn.
A TOUCHING APPEAL
There comes a cry of distress from the
"City of Brotherly Dove.” The Repub
lican party in Pennsylvania is getting
hard up for funds, as the following
touchlngrtppo.il scorns to indicate. The
letter which we publish below was ad
dressed to Thomas Armstrong, of this
place, late cigar inspector for this dis
trict. Always open to the call of dis
tress, he wishes to give the letter ns
widen circulation'ns possible, in the
hope that those of the faithful, who ItaVo
not received official notification of tlio
assessment, may lie induced to subscribe
without further notice. Tlio demand
is urgent, as every one who reads the
circular will see. The Democrats al
ready have control of the Senate—there
is great danger they will carry the next
■House, for under the apportionment
bill there is a Republican majority of
only six members—and a Democratic
ascendancy In both branches of tlio Leg
islature may cause defeat in the cam
paign of 1872. TiiOjßadicat office holder
:.whosaliear.td3‘.,nbt.louchecUby.,,suuh.an.
appeal as this, ought to be turned out
of office at once. ’Of course the Collec
tors’ office and the Post Office have
“ shelled out” to the tune of several
hundred each. How do you like it,
Major ? Goes like pulling teeth, don’t
It? Keeping this pure and incorrupt
Republican party in power is rather an
expensive thing after all, isn’t it? If
the Radical office holders in this vici
nity fall to respond, Gen. Bingham will
be kind enough to let us Ir""™. «•■«>
will see that they are properly dealt
with. Seriously, though, after Evans’
big steal of over three hundred thousand
dollars, they ought to be able to run the
machine a year, or so without further"
assessmen ts. Here is the letter;

, Siß—ThegreatßepubUcun party, which
has so successfully administered the af
fairs of the National Government and a
majority of. the s*late Governments dur
ing the past ten years, enters upon the
present campaign in tho State of Penn
sylvania with the confidence that its
glorious work in the past has beep en
dorsed and approved by every sincere
lover of his Stnleond country. Our party
must, in the present struggle for political
supremacy throughout the States, add
another victory to the many already won,
and place Pennsylvania as unqualifiedly
Republican In the coining Presidential
contest of 1872.
Every effort wilhbe made by the Dem
ocratic Party to gain control of the House
of Representatives, which, under the
Apportionment Billlpnssed by the Legis
lature of *7l,gives the Republican party a
majority of six members. This majority
must be maintained. A Democratic as
cendancy in both Houses of the Legisla
ture may cause defeat lu the campaign
of 1872. Wo ask for your aid, sympathy
and active co-operation in the labors and
movements which the State Committee
proposes to inaugurate during the present
canvass.
We, therefore, respectfully solicit from
you Twenty Dollars, as a contribution
for the use of the Committee. All the
funds will bo judiciously expended for
organization, documents and meetings.
The remittance should be made by

' In “rising to explain/* the editor of
the Herald , the Republican candidate
for Senator, says: “We approve the ac
tion of the general government, in giv
ing free homesteads to all citizens out
of tho public lands* and also that liberal
policy which has stimulated the con
struction of railroads by which these
homesteads are made accessible and
valuable. Is this bad?”
It may be a matter of interest to know
just what “ liberal policy ” is, to
which reference ,is made. The follow
ing table,compiled from official sources,
shows the amount of land granted to
various railroads since March 4th, 18(39.

entire State of New York. We should
say this was rather “ liberal .” After
such a streak of liberality as this, it is
scarcely pepessary for tho .editor of the
Herald to tell ps that 1)0 is “ decidedly
opposed to all raids upon tj\e treasury of
the Hate, for the benefit pf corporations
or individuals.’’ It is very much like
straining at m gnat and swallowing a
camel, to make such a wry face over the
nine million steal, and then swallow
the five hundred million steal with such
startling complacency. Does tho Sena
tor ’’ rifiP to explain ?”
THE EVANS IJWINDI.E.
In another colunjn will bo found a
letter written by Jos. M. McClure, Esq.,
late Deputy Attorney General, to Attor
ney General Brewster. It be re
membered that it was Mr. McClure who
unearthed the stupendous frauds which
the Geary “ring” had been perpetrating
on the treasury. Mr. Brewster, ns well
as the other State officers, took offense
at McClure’s exposure of the Evans
fraud, and treated his assistant in any
thing but a gentlemanly manner. The
Attorney General ‘‘protested” against
the exposure, and very readily gssented
to the renioval of McClure for making
it. This don’t speak well for tho Geary
administration. The public mind will
pot be long in coming to the conclusion
thif.t .a public officer whoso vigilance Jed
him to tho discovery of frauds upon the
treasury amounting to th fcp hundred
thousand dollars, and who bad the cou
rage to expose thn villainy, deserves to
be promoted for bis efficiency, rather
than to bo iguominlously dismissed
from office. By tills act Gov. Geary
and - Attorney General .Brewster have
made thomsoly.es the 'champions and
apologists of Eyaus, The flarrlsburg
Patriot puts tho points in tho Lq
strongly.thus : -

Mr. McClure brought the villainy t|

The oaae<of.Mr. McClure isan exampl
by which public officers will not fail p

and compound official felony if thw
would retain their places, and deserfe

McClure chose to reveal to the citizens of
the Commonwealth the conspiracy of
which they are the victims, aud lie has
fallen under the official wrath of Geary
and Brewster. Had he remained silent,
he could have retained his -office and
have received u share of the plunder at
the same time.*'
THE “EVANS FICAUD.
The Deputy Attorney General, J. M.
McClure, who has the courage to
'expose the *‘£vans fraud,” and who
was removed on Wednesday last for so
doing, has published the following let
ter, which will go far to confirm the
“perfect harmony” of our Radical
friends in this State:
Harrisruru, August 30, 1871, —Hod.
F. Carroll Brewster, -Attorney General
of Pennsylvania—Sir : Up until tire
time when I discovered your letters to
your messenger Mr, George F. Boss, I
expected that my removal from the office
of Deputy Attorney General would ta
made in a gentlemanly manner, but
those letters led me to expect just such
treatment as your bands as T have re
ceived.
I fully expected to be removed. First
—Because at our-interview, at my bouse,
on Tuesday night, the 15th ,instant, you
informed me that Governor Geary fer
vently demanded my removal. Second
—Because I believed such would be the
result that would follow my.exposure of
the nefarious transactions of Governor
Geary and his miserable Special Agent..
You will remember that I so stated when
I submitted the papers to you at Atlant
ic City, on Friday the 11th instant.
At our interview on Tuesday night
above mentioned, you informed me that
Governor Geary demanded my removal
because I had used my official or semi
official position to procure official papers
from the Treasury of the United States
and from the Departments of this State.
True it is I did not state, when I asked
for those papers, that they* were for my
private use, simply‘because such state
ment would have been false. Nor did I
purposely conceal the fact that I intend
ed to publish them, as Governor Geary
would testify, if he could in any way be
induced to speak the truth*
Governor Geary himaolf informed me r
at our conference on Tuesday ovraing,
the Bth instant, that ho had heard from
§ ergons in the Auditor General's and
tate Treasurer's Departments that I was
preparing a statement for publication in
relation to the collection of State claims
against the United States. The very first
use I made of the original paprrs in my
possession was an official or public one.
Immediately upon receiving them (ou
the Bth or 9th Inst.) I’exhibited them to
the Auditor General, and suggested to
him that immediate step* he taken to In—,
vestigate the matter and secure the money
clearly owing to the State.
I also submitted the papers to the
cushier.of the Slate Treasury, Mr. Nich
olson, in the absence of Mr, Mackey.—
Almost before the ink was dry upon the.
certificate of the State Treasurer ami
upon that of Mr. Weakly, Deputy sec
retary of State, to the copies of the com
mission and bond of: Mr. Special Agent
Evans, I took the cars for Philadelphia
for the purpose of submPllng the docu
ments to you, as I felt in duty bound.—
You were not In Philadelphia,'and I at
once, on ascertaining this fact by going
to your office, telegraphed to you at At
lantic City, asking where I could meet
you. Your reply reached me too late for
the train that ever ing, (Thursday even
ing, August 10th.) I then telegraphed
you that I would be with you uext
morning, j exhibited the papers to you
before, twelve, o’clock, noon of .Friday,
the 11th inat.
760.000
200.000
I then deemed my official duties done
In.that regard, but I connciehllously be
lieved that I had yet a duty to perform
as a simple citizen. So thick was the air
rumors and reports of fraud and corrup
tion In the collection of the war claims of
almost every State—more particularly
Kentucky—that I regarded the publica
tion—for the information of the people at
large—of the fads In my possession as a
duty I could not shirk. I bsve performed
that duty fearlessly, against your protest
and despite the whining pleadings of
Governor Geary tha C would not expose
his special agent. Quere: Was Gov.
Geary only concerned about' the exposure
of bis agent 9
Why is Gov. Geary so.much incensed
at the publication of those mere tran
scripts of the public records? Why did
be almost or altogether curse the Auditor
General and State Treasurer for giving
me their certificates, which simply curt!-'
fled what was part of their records, and
in addition thereto, that no demand had
been made for commission or per oentago
on the amounts paid by Governor Geary
into the State Treasury, and that no per
centnge ha<,l been paid? Why did Gov.
Geary complain so vehemently of the
form of those certificates? They con
tained nothing but naked facts.
Does it ijec.ome the Governor of a State
to complain when the people are permit
led to see a portion or nil of their public
records ? The. fact is that Goy; Geary
has afiowu much, more zeal in the en
deavor to suppress the knowledge of this
defalcation of hie agent than in the in*
vestigaliou of it, he has been more in*
censed at thp publication of the facts
than at the frauds of George Or Evans,
his special agent, the immediate'cause of
the publication.
Governor Geary has never alluded to
this matter of the collection of the State
claims in any of his annual messages to
the Legislature. Was it for the reason
seriously suggested by you, at our inter
view ou Tuesday night, the 15th Inet., as
a reason why it was bpst tbtyt a semi-an
nual report had not been made by the
Special Agent, according to the conddtion
of the agreement mentioned In bis boipl,
viz; because such rpporfc iplght have
prevented the collection qt fhe ppraafnlng
claims? Why was the employment qf
auy peculiar means necessary to the col*
lection of these claims? Was conceal*
meut of fuels necessary? And does the
chief law officer of the State approve of
the employment of any but proper
means, even to obtain what Is rightly
due the. State?
182,000
1,400,000
1,500,000
42.000.
20.000.
I trust uot, and I am sure the people of
Pennsylvania do uot want from the Gen
eral Government money to which they
are not Justly entitled. The State of
Pennsylvania Unotin a needy condition.
By the publication of the above mention
ed papers, I have done simply what Guv.
Geary neglected or purposely avoided
doing, to wit: I have given to the people
the information they wore Justly entitled
to have bad years ago.
Why did, not Governor Geary bring
his Bpepial Agent to account lung ago?
If uot bofljrp, ,f),a certainly knew two
months ago (that t)ils rgawt (md In f)fs
hands money pelppglng fo’ Jthe State. I
know that a ceftaln Imjfvlfjuijlpaljed pp 1 .

day .ugentlemunly note from you.lnform
llng me that I was removed. I expected
this courtesy, because I believed you to
be what you professed to be—a courteous
gentleman;' I also expected it, because
you expressed yourself—both at that in
terview und at our interview at Atlantic
City—as entirely satisfied with tho man
ner in which I hud performed my official
duties saving and excepting, perhaps,
the seml-oflVdttl duty of exposing Gov.
Geary ami Special Agent Evans.
At our interview (his morning you
affected the opinion that, by my charges
against Governor Geary, I had virtually
removed myself from the office of Deputy
Attorney Genera.l. ami you denied me the.
common courtesy of a written uatice of
n?y removal. I then charged you with
uugeutleinnnly conduct in writing letters,
t* your messenger, In which you ques
toned my integrity by Inueudo, and as
"Wmßd;theTelir what war uot- llie-faot-iu -
fcgurd to the preparations, &c.,of reports
<n applications for pardons.' Whereup
on you ordered me to. leave your office,
rhlch order—after telling you some plain
truths—l saw proper to obey. We will
jow let the people of Pennsylvania judge
letween us.
For my successor, permit me to suggest
♦ourson,F. Carroll Brewster,.Tr. While
J was your deputy, you carefully appro
bated to yourself the $3 Attorney’s fees
-which former Attorney Generals gave
o their deputies —all of the five per cent,
loiumissions collected since April 6th,
1371, and all fees for approval of charters.
jour son in my stead, you could
swell your limuea tUVULuO, fcy K>lilSr>m lti«
palary to the before mentioned perquisites,
and thus, in a measure, relieve your
straightened circumstances.
Another benefit would result from this
'arrangement. The name of your son
being tbe same as your own, the two
might be conveniently confounded, as
-occasion requited, and you could thus
ffevote all your time ,to your private bus-,
ices?, instead of seven-eighths of it, as
when tbe writer hereof was your deputy.
This communication is already too
long. It only remains to thank you for
your very flattering expressions of regard
Tor myself personally, aud for your high
commendations of tbe manner in which
1 discharged my official duties while oc
cupying the office of Deputy Attorney-
General, uttered at Atlantic City on the
lllh inst. und at my bouse on tho night
ofthelSiust.
I am, dear sir, yours, most respectfully,

Accident on the Philadelphia and Erie
Bailrond—LUt of Billed and Wounded.
Erik, August 27.— The Erie mall train,
bound West, collided with the Empire
freight train going east, between seven
and eight o'clock yesterday morning,
about a mile and a half west of Westport
Station, middle division of the Philadel
phia and Erie Railroad.
The following c peraoDB were killed and
injured :—Killed— B. C. Bryan, of Lock.
Haven, and R. Winslow, passengers,
and G. W. Hyman, of Williamsport,
conductor, and Thomas Gannon, of Dun
kirk, fireman of the mail train; ames
W. Ward, of Belfonte, Pa., conductor,
and William Killlnger, of Altoona, Pa.,
engineer of the freight train.
Wounded—A. W. Atwater, of Lock
Haven; R. Hiller, of Williamsport; J.
Scheffer, of Linne, Pa ; P. McConnell, of.
Baltimore, engineer of first passenger
train; Thomas McNanny, of Wayne, Pa.,
A. H. Steel, ofTioneata, Pa.;J.H. Corn
wall, of Binghamton, N. Y.; M. K. Foa«
ter, of Lock Haven; G. A. Lacey, of
Philadelphia; Judge J. A. Dull, of Tion
esta, H. A. Thompson, of Williamspoit;
Eben Biter, of Linne ; Frank Boon, of
Altoona, baggage master of mail train,
and Alonzo Lyon, of Renovo, Pa., fire
man of the freight train.
The passenger train was about an hour
late in leaving Williamsport, and was
running thirty-five miles per hour.
The freight train was running eighteen
miles an hour. The trains, meeting on a
sharp onrvo, wore not visible to caoh
other till they were only a few yards
apart, and their speed was not checked.
The baggage and smoking cars of the
mail train were telescoped all but a few
feet.
The passengers in the rear earn were
uninjured. An olficial investigation
shows that the accident was caused bj
the neglect of the conductor and engineer
ol the malt train to obey orders given
them not ■to pass Westport until the
frelgiit train had arrived there.
A copy of this order was found in the
pocket of the engineer, who was believed
to be fatally injured, but later intelli
gence reports him Improving, though
still unable to talk.
CaVa Upset.
Another accident occurred on the
Schuylkill and Susquehanna railroad,
near Forge Station. A train, ran over
three uqws, upsetting the cars. Mrs.
Jucksou,of Duncaanon, Pa., was injured.
