nomiccs were thrown overboard. That
is a joko on tho "Christian statesman"
who superintended that job. Thoro is
evidently another "ring" outside of the

liupiness. However, it mny only ho an
ornamental "ring" after all.

When she returned homo after church
she found her husband hanging by his

THE ELECTION.
Tho general result of the Kovembor
oleclion is not what wo desired, or the
trood ot tho country demanded.
Maekey Ii Co. must get away with
about fix millions more of the Stato
funds beforo the people will get their
eyes open. While we have lost Penn
sylvania we havo gained the plundered
State of Mississippi upon which Den
llutler's. relutious undtbo carpet-bag
fraternity generally havo fattened for
years nnd have plundered it to that ex
tent that tho Htntn bonds are worth
only rtrfnfy cciifa on tho dollar. Now
the peoplo hand this plundered Com
monwealth over to tho Democrats.
Wo elect all tho Congressmen, State
oflicors ami nearly all tho county offi
cers.
Tho official result in this State wo
cannot give at this time, as they aro
not done counting the votes in Phila
delphia, (iov. llnrtrand'a majority
will bo about 11,000. Outside of
Philadelphia the Stato is Democratic
by about 6,000 majority, Tho Prohibi
tion voto will probably reach 15,000.
The official result in this county will
bo found in tabular form in this issuo
and is as good as wo expected in view
ot the weather and roads on election
day, except, the defeat of Air. Wallers
our nominee for Treasurer. Falsehood,
bigotry, misrepresentation und square
lying succoetled, nnd ho is defeated by
Cant. Mcliauirhey by a majority of
171 votes. This is an outrage that no
intelligent Democrat can defend, lie
cause Jlr. Walter's Democracy, intcg
rety and businos.0. qualifications were
not questioned. When a iiomineo of
ou r party possesses t h cse t h rce essen tiul
qualifications he should not be defeated.
Hero clap-trap and bigotry should not
succeed among intelligent voters.
Til ATTOKNir liENZUAL. This
ofllco has been vaennt ever ainoe the
death of Mr. Dimmiek, and now that
Gov. llartrnnil baa been re-counted
into office legal gentlemen are looking
around for tho position. A Jlurrisburg
dispatch to tho Philadelphia Timet
says; Tho selection of an Attorney
General In place of Dimmiek, deceasod,
ia agitated by tho politicians, and the
prominont names are Benjamin Harris
Brewster, Win. II. Armstrong and
Wayno MaeVeagb. Cameron is very
anxious for the appointment of Mac
Vengh.but will not be likely to suoceod.
His noxt choice Is Brewster, and Gov.
Ilartranfl mny compmmiso with Cam
eron in that way. Ho was strongly
inclined to appoint Armstrong at the
time ho originally appointed Dimmiek,
and now would probably appoint liira
if left entirely to himself, but Philadel
phia has strong claims, while Lycom
ing can have no pretensions on tbo
score of her largo majority for Por
shing, and cither Brewster or an en
tirely new man will bo tukon.
How they do talk! says thfl Mew
ark Journal. Last year, when an en
tire Congress waa elected, and Govern
ors and legislature in a majority of
the states, tho Democracy swept tho
country. ''Oh, but it's an 'oft" year,"
explained tho itadloald. This your,
when the issues aro nowhoro national
but altogetbor local, and when there
aro no Congressmen to elect except
in Uiasissippi, where the Democrat
sweep tbo field again and when there
aro but one or two Kioto Government!
to elect, the Radicals are In the main
triumphant. Rut this, you know, Is
not an "off" year. Oh no, it ia a
''grand Republican triumph," a "mag
nificent vindication oi Grantism," from
in-Dent-ations down to UK-cvasions,
and "a bitter rebuke to malignant
slanderers." More, if wo are to believe
the Radical presses, it utterly routs
tho Democracy and make it aa easy
as swallowing an oyster for Grantism
with the third term on top. Well,
well, how circumstance do niter rascal
Split I'r. Wo observe by the olco
tion returns that Mother Centro was
considerably tangled, in a political
sense, however, adding largely to the
Democratic majority. J)uf, look out
the next time I Tim combination wjl
be sura to go the other way. For
awhile thoro were four tickets In the
field, but a short time beforo the elec
tion the Temperance and 70 leaders
united on one set of candidate for
county offices, and polled about 800
votaw for tho joint ticket. Tho Tern
poranco Htoto ticket received about
COO votes, leaving but 200 vote for the
70 organization in that county.
Tho handsome majority of 1,407 tor
Porshingis indeed gratify ing.andajiows
thnt Mother Centre ho come back te
tbo old landing from which she untied
in 1811 5. Wo hope the pilot will
keep hor thcro in the future. No "gig-
ing back" now I
How Handt. The voters of Jeffer
son county selected both of their Asso-
oiato Judge from Punxsiitawney,
twenty mile distant from the county-
scat. Thl piece of jugglery will cost
tho citi.ens of tlioU poupty hundreds
of dollars annually, unless (Ju (uoon
venienoe Is obviated by the rcnttunt
President Judge. If they keep on,
Punuutartioy will he full of Judges
in a few years. J

JAY COOKE OGOXTZ.
This played out money king still at'
tracts sortie attention. No greater
freebooter ever infested this country.
Yet, there are those who pronounce
him a "Christian Hunker," although
be has swindled widows, orphans and
business Anns ontof millions of dollars.
Tho Sheriff ol Philadelphia recently
"went through" his banqueting balls,
and "cleaned him out.". A corres
pondent relate the transaction as fol
lows: The romantic grounds that surround
Ogontz, the late residence ol'Jny Cooko,
havo been destwrntod by tbo Ibot-troad
of tbo plebeians who out of curiosity
took advantage of the opportunity pre
sented by a publio salo of furniture,
wines, rare plants, imported cows, Ac.,
purcbiished uy Mr. Cooko, out of the
money stolen from widows and orph
ans. As tho vulgar people trumped up and
down those grand staircases, finished
in polished woods, or stood fur the first
timo uKn those costly carpets and
gazed "t tho curved woodwork and
frescoed ceiling, or looked admiringly
at tbo black nod white marble that
adorned the grand hallway with its
revolving fountain in tho center, tailing
in jets over rare Chiueso fish, they, tho
people, not tbo fish, could lium some
idea of tho luxury in which the pious
bankrupt spent bis leisure alter the
arduous labors of the day, raking in
tho people's greenbacks, wero over.
It is not very consoling to know that
tho ebony and buhl inlaid liquor case,
with four decanters and twenty-four
wines, brought but $27.50, although it
cost .S-'.i, nor that tho coony and gilt
center table, Klorentine Mosaic top,
brought? but J30 ns against 275 paid
lor it ; nor that the suit of carved rose
wood nnd green plush velvot furni
ture, nine pieces costing (l,30.hmnght
only (238.
It was a sad sight to look upon the
paintings, statuary and rare engrav
ings, rich carpets, costly furniture, lace
curtnins of rare beauty and price, the
tropical plants, and in fuel everything
that tho invention of the times can ap
ply or tho tosto of man with boundless
wealth command, and known that
cvory ono of these costly articles was
stained with tho blood of victims who
havo gone broken-hearted to untimely
craves.
Jay Cooko A Co. are not yet out of
tho toils ot tho bankrupt court, or is
likely Boon to bo. I am of tbo opinion
that when a certificate of good charac
ter Is given him, whereby he will bo
enabled to rosnmo bnsinss and fleece
other confidimr fools, it will be alter
Judgo Cadwallader is led to conscien
tiously beltevo that the owner of an
ebony and buhl wine caso was a Chris
tian gentleman, and never intoi.tion
ally wronged anybody out of 10,000,
000, The case of J. Cooke Y Co., bank
rupts, will be a legacy handed down
by the Court to tho Centennial Exhi
bition of 1876 lor tho purpose of show
init the "National Messina-of a national
dobt," as understood by the princo of
bankrupt",

A Washington special to iho New York

SupnKMi! Coi'rt Dicisioh. Wclast
week published an important decision
in the Ofloo of Mcswrs. Lucas k Co. vs.

Slate decided in that caso that when
Kath'nsl Hank take more than tix

Interest on the paper tliscqunod, and
that the Interest thui token may be
recovered at any lime within air years
after the transaction. The Court also
decided that the Bank can he made to
pay double the amount of interest
taken over six per cent., if suit for the
penalty hi brought within tiro yran.
If thia decision does not reduce tho
prloe of money, there is tut little uao
to have any litigation on that subject.
Too Bad! Tbo Now York Sun, of i

THE 11 A VICAL OltXAMESTH.
Oa the morning after the Radical
County fnnrcntiot), a sealous Had. en
countered one u. the leaders of that
orgiini.ntion uu the Court Hiiuse corn
cr, und interviewed bim in this way :
liud. ' 1 thought it was generally
uiKiei-Hiotxi that our party would uotiii
nsie but one candidate fur Commis
sioner unil one for Auditor, and yet,
yon lenders havo gone on and nomina
ted two men fur uaeb ollice. How is
this? What docs Ibis trick import?"
Loader "Well, 1 will tell you how
it happened. Atler consulting with
the leading men of our party, we con
cluded to nominate two men for Com
missioner and two for Auditor, so as
U prevent our men from voting for
tbo Democratic nominoes."
Had. "Yes, but that trick defeats
Irwin and Wells, see it it don't ! You
defeated Cook, and and the man up
ill Jordan township two of the best
men beture the Convention, and next
yu want to defeat Irwin nnd Wells."
Leader "Oh, no! You are mistaken.
They will be elected wil limit a tloubt.
Tbey cannot be defeated. Hoover and
Conner wore nominated as urnx orna
ments to tho ticket, so as to keep our
men from voting for the ( 'nnticrlicnd
conuiiiutes I
Hud. "No, sir! This is one your
tricks, and you will see when tbo elec
tion is over that both Irwin and Wells
will bo defeated."
Rtid. moves off mad.
Tho intcvlvwer proves to be a pretty
good prophet Tho "ornanieiits" on
the ticket are both elected Hoover by
39, and Conner by 46 majority. How
is that for ornaments ?

''ATAI, EFFECT OF COAL GAS.

m' Collins ho been working
I this region for several weeks. On
(Tuesday of Inst week ho moved his
family, consisting of hi wife and three
children-two bov aired reancctivolv
ill nnd 13, and a beautiful little girl
uged (I years from Miilerstnwn to
tin place, and on udnesday they
occupied a newly finished house on
Franklin street, a few doors south of

ranging the tiro in the cooli stove fur
tho night by putting on coal, taking
of)' tho front lids and shutting the hack
damper, they retired, leaving the stair
door leading from tho kitchen open.
On Friday morning Mr. Collins awoke
feeling very sick, and his wife was
similarly affected. He went down
stairs, opened the bouse add stinted
for a doctor, but before ho had accom
plished his errand his landlord entered
tho house and discovered the state of
affairs ho ulso hastened for a physician,
procKring Or. II. li. Wright, who
ldund Mm. Collin in a stupid, semi
conscious state, tho girl quite dead, the
oldest boy with eyes fixed, unable to
speak, and very "faint pulse, and his
brother very much affected, hut able to
cry and refuse tho preacrilied remedies.
When tho father returned he was as
ono intoxicated and could scarcely bo
persuaded that they had slept from
Wednesday evening to Friduy morn
ing. He could recollect nothing in
that time except thnt about twoo'elock
on Thursday morning bo was awaken
ed by the complaining ot the little girl,
wuoin ue 100K irom Her Bed and
placed in another, never to wake
again. She was buried at three o'clock
Sunday afternoon. The other re
covered rapidly, and on Monday, when
wo called, tho boyi wore running
about, the father was at work and the
mother waa d ;ing very well, though
suffering from the effects of the torri
blo gas which so nearly robbed them
all of life. Sliamokin lerald.
THE OHIcTeLECTIOX.
Tho Cincinnati Enquirer, in ulliidiug
to tbo result in that State, says: In
forty-nino counties there is a gain for
(iovornor Allon at tho late election
over hia previous succoew. The remain
ing thirty -nino counties show a gain fur
his opponont, mainly in the counties of
Cuyahoga, Lucas, lianiislon, Franklin
and Ashtabula. Thoro is where the
reiMiatcrs put in their work. There is
where tho false counts were perpetra
ted. The bulk of tho business wss
done in Cuyahoga, Lucas ami Ashta
bula counties, convenient to Canada,
where in a lew houra thoro was safety

600 lVemocrntio majority in 174. It
was changed to 6,37ft Hepublii an ma
