THE EASTERN WAR.

of Bulgaria, leaves tho result,to flow
back and forth liko tho tides of the
ocean, while thousands ot men aro be
ing killed on both sides ovory week
Tho doBperntion now displayed by both
commanders, is to obtain a substantial
victory beforo tho winter campaign
sets in. Tho country for twenty-five
miles around Plevna is one vast battle
field. Not less limn Tu.OOO soldiers
and one third as many horses and
mules are buried within that circle.
Tho latest (up to tho 24th) news
train London and Vienna, are to the
cITect that fighting for tho last tun
days lias resulted in a stand off, and
that within tho next fortnight sonic

It seems that tho courts in Washing.

olina State thieves of high and low
degree, Irom U. S. Senators down
to the petty oftlco bolder. Among tho
rogues in tho box arraigned (or trial at
the National Capital, the other day
wo notice the names of Frederick A.
Sawyor, lute Ansistant Secretury of the
Treasury, and an ex-I'nited States Sen
ntor from South Curolina ; Frank W
Brook and Philip 1. lloddy, of tho lute
firm of Turkman, lirooks k Co.; Wil

William H. Ilristow, ox-Chief Clerk of

These aro some of the men that were
met every where denouncing the ras-
calilios of Tweed and Lis confederates
in crime, when that band of rogue
were arrested by Mr. Tilden and Mr.

themselves hoarse, declaiming against

Should tho Democrutio claimants
Irom Louisiuna and South Curolina be
admitted, and Senator Morton's illness
tormlntito fatully, tlio appointment of
a successor to tho latter by Gov. Wil
liams would huvo tho ell'oot to deduct
ono Senator from the llepubliean side
and to add ono to tho Democrats, tho
strict party voto would thon stand thirty
eight to thirty -eight. It is well known
titol Senators Patterson of South Car
olina, Conover of Florida, and Spencer
of Alabama, uro not in a very happy
l'ramo of mind, owing to tho action of
tho administration in removing many
of their friends and adherents; and
should such a result as indicated above
bo reached, cither of these Senators
will bo in a position to control tho bal
ance of power in the Senate, und dic
tate- terms to tho administration. Tho
opportunity to sottlo old sooroswill bo
presented, and at tho samo timo tho
hot fuo in tho rear, in tho shape of in
vestigations and strong local influences,
may result in somo sort ot compromise
that would enublo ft Domocrutic coup
ti'etiit to capture tho Senate committees.
In viow of tho action of South Caroli
na investigating committees, together
with tho expressed hostility of one ol
the Senators named, the organization
of the Senate on a Democratic basis is
not altogether so improbable us many
llepubliean Senators would suppsse.

Death of a Senator. United Slates
Sonator Lowis V. Bogy died at St.
Louis on tho 21st inst. The Senator
had been afflicted with malarial lever
several months, and lately an abscess
of tho livor was discovered, which has
tened, perhaps directly caused, his
death. Tbero was a touch of romance
in tho careor of Sonator Bogy. Forty-
five years ago ho placed in the hands
of his mother a letter declaring his
purpose to work till ho was sixty years
of ago to secure tbe United SlatosSen
aUirnhip from his lintlvo Stale. Ho
worked hard, and In his sixtieth year
ho was rewarded.
A son of the lato John Y. Mnson, of
Virginia, is a captain it) tho J'roncb
army. At thirteen years of age ho
was the bearer of dispatches from
Napoleon's Court to the Confederate
government, and subsequently served
on General Hampton's staff during tho
civil war.
Gov. Hampton wunt away from this
city without being itblo to secure any
Government arms for his State militia.
The critics who cried out at Hump

On examination at tho War Depart
ment tho astounding discovery was
mudo llttit South Curolina has already
received an ndvunco of all arms to.
which it is entitled for forty years to
come. II was also discovered that this
extraordinary issue of anna cunio
through Seo'y Cameron, who, at tho in
stance of "Honest John Patterson," run
this load of arms into South Carolina
for tho use of tho negrooa only. This
was done lust full when tho Camorons
and Chandlers wore crying out so loud
ly at tho dangers arising from tho pres
ence of the Whito Leaguers in South
Curolina. This, when the negroes had
twenty stand of arms to ono of the
whites. Hcsido this great issue of
linns, it will bo remembered that a
lurgo body of troops was ordered into
South Curolina. Everything was done
that could bo done hero to precipitate
a color-line fight, but the patience and
coolness of Gov. Hampton and bis peo
ple frustrated this well laid plan. Gov.
Humpton goes back without any arms
for his Stuto, but ho is satisfied with
the reason, as it will help explain to
the public tho extreme means adopted

toward tho South. jV. 1'. Sttn.
Nr.Aiti,Y a Rumpus. Tho Washing
ton correspondent of tho Now York
Tribune says that tho gossip about tho
war department is that Gen. Howard's
short and somewhat impudent dispatch
to Gen. Sherman w as occasioned by a
dispatch from Gon. Sherman to Gen.
Howard in which tho former directed
Gen. Howard to push the Indians to
tho wull and clean them out; but, if he
could not do it, to turn his command
over to somo younger ofllcer. It ap
pears that Gen. Howard has given
somo dissatisfaction to his superiors
by leaving his department severul
times during tho campaign to seek a
place of safety. So long as Gen. How
ard remain. within his department
limits it is not in tho power of (ieu.
Shcrmnn to remove him, ns ho is ap
pointed to bis position by tho Presi
dent, but if ho gets outside his limits
Gen. Sbermuii could appoint somo other
ofllcer to tuko bis place.
McCl.l HK on the Set-Up. The edi

political jack-knife. liutan announces
in the Beaver Argus that Ilartruntt
doesn't want to go to tho Senate ; that
ho is unanimously in favor of Camer
on's re election, and that Cameron will
insist upon llartranlt's nomination for
the Presidency in 1880. An outsider
onld just have thought as much on
hearing tho speech of Major Morris in
tho lato convention, and on seeing Ad
dicks Jerked away from Kembloin the
contest for the temporary chairman

Tho Danvillo Intelligencer, in alluding
to this humbug, says : "Tho old tariff

tho resolutions passed at tho Iiadical
Stuto Convention. What insufferable
cant this is. Hero for sixteen years
tho Radicals havo had control of the
government and could and have passed
such tariff bills as suited thorn, and
what is tho result ? Depression ap

tho tariff resolution mentioned T None,

Steamers Burned. St. Louis, Sep
tember 20. The steamer "Grand Re

about 12 o'clock last night and burned

A Proper Strike. 1 horo Is ono

Democrat, in which everybody looking

is to striko down the Republican par

have befallen tho country. It should

Now, tho fact is, that tho head and
front of both these establishments wero
at tho Stato Convention and were par
ticularly engaged in the platform busi
uoss and wero ovesceing our party af
fairs generally. And, yet ; they allow
ed this "oversight" to occur. If wo
mistake not tho representatives from
both concerns went there with a full
platform in thoir pockets and any
number of plunks. This we do know :
No other ton establishments in tha
stuto gave more "lip" on that subject.
Still, tho "Treusury mismanagement"
was overlooked by them and they now
call upon Col. Noycs to supply what
they omitted. Pretty lenders, to allow
a"Btrango oversight" liko this to occur,
and then turn around and "blub" about
it in tlio face of the enemy. If a sol
dier would perpetrate a trick of this
kind during a battle he would certain
ly bo shot. Mora : It mukes no differ
ence what Col. Noyct might sny now,
these men would not bo satisfied. Thoir
hobby is growl, Biinp and snarl.
The Lie Nailed. Tho Radical or
gan bl Pittsburgh sturted tho story
that Daniel O. Burr and his friends
wero opposing Col, Noycs, But tho
delegates from that county to the
Democrutio Stuto Convention publish
a card saying: "reiterating as wo did
in convention, our persnnnl pcfuroiico
and friendship for Daniel O. Burr, as
arguments why he should havo been
nominated, do now appeal to tbe
Democracy of Alloghony county, as
well as tho entire Stato of Ponnsylva
nia, to lay aside nil fueling, social, local
or religious, and support with their
well known ability the nominoes of Ibo
Democratic Convention, Trunkcy,
Schell and Noycs."
A Tidal Wave Tho Now York
ll'or'J, in alluding to the nomination
of Gen. MeClellan, says : "Tho aetion
of tho Now Jorsoy Stato Convention
was determined by ono of those rare
wavos of feeling, which sometimes
sweep ovor public assemblies, carrying
beforo thorn all potty passions and
small intrigues liko chips and drift-
wood. No sooner was tho name of
General MeClellan mentioned, than a
sound of acclamation arose like that
which used to greot his coming along
tho lines of tho great army of tho
Potomac, which ho called into being as
a disciplined host and fashioned for the
saving ol tho slate. Tho onthnsiasm
shown by the Convention undoubtedly
prefigures the nature and tho result ol
tho canvass. It will be a canvass of
tho people and not of tho politicians
swift, vigorous and vicious."
No, You Don't. Tho Philadelphia
Commomcealth sees fit to glvo us a lec
ture becuuso wo didn't swallow our
plutlorm without criticism. And ulso
culls upon Col. Noycs to rise and ex
plain to that junto. If -tho writers in
that journal uro not awaro of tho fact,
wo now inform thorn that they do not
own us. Whether they havo a titlo
to Col. Noyos,wo know not, but we bus
poet that their claims to him aro just
as flimsy as tho title under which they
claim us.

ho did pocket tho cash. It looks so at
this distance.
A Liberal "World." Tbo New
York World thinks that "nothing could
be more hostile ta thn true interests of
tho Democracy than any attempt to
mako tho crention of tho Electoral
Commission the great Republican crime
to bo condoned or to mako any faces
ovor its decision." Mistaken World.
It is not tho creation of tbo commis
sion to which wo particularly olrjcct,
but it was its action and the conduct
of tho Radical officials in falsity ing tho
election returns that constitutes tbe
groat crimo that can never be condon
ed nor wiped out. Wo doubt tbo au
thority for making tho creature, but
it Ib its conduct wo object to now.
A Bad Stomach. Senator Wallaco
and Col. Noyes, our nominee for Slate
Treasnror, seem to be annoying a writ,
er in the Philadelphia Commonictalth.
From this assumption, or presumption,
ono would suppose that ho was tho
owner of these two eminent gontlemon.
This will be nows to thoir party and
personal friends in tho West Branch
valley. Wo suspect, however, that
tho writur in quostion has his rest
frequently disturbed by a nightmare.
His stomach needs tar more attention
than tho two prominent Democrats ho
assails.
A Huoc Assumption Tho writers
in tho Philadelphia Commonwealth, by
thoir tone, ossumo to bo tho owners of
Senator Wallaco, and also lay claim to
the proprietorship of the Democratic
party in Pennsylvania. Wo would
liko to sco tho titlo papers that cover
this claim or investment. Their pre
tense is amusing. The ringmastor may,
for sport, assumo to be proprietor of
tho circus, but ho only docs il for tho
purpose ol amusing tho spectators at
fifty cents a hoad, Just how tho Com
monwealth men will got thoir pay, wo
cannot see.
Gov. Hampton, of South Carolina
joinod tho Hayes circus at Lcwiovillo,
Ky., on his return from delivering an
address beforo the Rock lord, Illinois,
Agricultural Society. His presence
added Immensely to the attractions of
tho caravan through Kentucky and
Tennessee We think It is about time
tho friends of Hayes haul him off bis
electioneering tour, if they want out
siders to bcleivo that "civil servico" is
not a humbug a dodgo, too infernal
cheap for a "Bwcat cloth" expert to
follow up.
Another Ticket. The ticket man
ufacturers are still at work. Tho
Grocnbackors mot at Williamsport on
tho 19th, and put up the following
ticket!
t'er Sapreme Judge Benijamla I. Rentlay, of
Lyoemlng ennnty.
Kor Auditor Auditor Oaneral-J. S. Km.reon,
of Hewver.

Philadelphia,.
Wo would sitpposo that with fivo
tickets in the Sold, every votercould be
satisfied.
Pi.entt on Hand. An exchange
says: "Tho secret service bureau in
Washington bason hand ovor $300,000
in counterfeit money, much of it In
bogus trado dollars, halves, and quar
ters." Bettor not let It stay there too
long; It might become scattered by
mislnks. .
Another Bank "Busted." Tbe
Merchant's, Mechanic's and Farmer's
Bank of Chicago, faas closed Its doors.
A million of dollars as stock and da

Omaha, Sepleiiibur IS.
ed this city at an early hour this morning
that
the Union Pucillu Express our on
ino.neomingtriiiu.wii cHieii, neyen-
no about 3 p. in. yesterday, was rubbed
at llig Spring, about II) p. m.
Too station where lliu ruhliery of
a.wi.e - .--e-r- .-. -r. .-J'
oust of hero. There aro only ono or
two houses besides tho stuliou. Tho
robbers rodo to tho station in the even
ing and took possession of everything,
tearing tho telegraph implements out
and throwing them iiway. A 1 red
light was then hung out to stop trains,
which reached there ubnul eleven
o'clock, On tho conductor stepping
oil to see wliut wus wanted lie wus
met by a man armed with a revolver,
who ordered him to throw up his bunds.
Tho engineer and fireiiiun woro secur
ed, und u guard placed at Ibe end of
tho coach door. The station agent
was compelled to knock on the express
door, ana on its being opened tor him
tho robbers rushed in, overpowered
Messenger Miller, und took possession
Ol tlio cur. 1 buy soon red (bo.UOU in
coin ami about $!i,000 in currency Irom
tho express car. Tho through safe,
which is stationary, anil lias a com In
nation lock, they left undisturbed. It
contained a very large sum of money.
The passengers in tho coach were
then visited ami relieved of their cash
and valuublus. Tho plunder taken
Irom tbe passengers is stated to bo $1,
300 in oiu.li, four gold watches and a
ticket to Chicago. Ono man named
Morris, lost a gold watch und $480 in
money. The arrival of a freight train
evidently interfered with their plan, lor
altur putting out tho fire In the loco
motive of thu express train they mount
ed and rodo away without disturbing
the occupants of tho sleeping car. The
Sherill's ol the surrounding counties
and cominundiug ofllcein of military
posts throghoul Nebraska unit Wyom
ing and along tho Western Pacific
roud huvo been notified of tho robbery,
and everything possible will bo done
to effect their arrest.
K. Morsoiiian, Superintendent of tho
Union Puculio Express, otters $10,000
reward for the cupturo ol the purties,
and lor tbe return of the money. Pro
rata of said reward will bo paid Tor tho
return of a portion of tho money, or
tho capture of any of tho men.
Auusino the Crowd. Tbe Balti
more (Inzette says : The correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commenint, traveling
with the administration circus, gives
us tho following bit ot Huyes humor:
"Culls wero made for Mrs. Hayes, and
her appearance was greeted by a
vol unto of applause of even greuter
magnitude than the President bud re
ceived, il thut were ossiblo. 'Ah,' suid
ho, turning around, '1 see I've lost my
importance.' This evoked l-ours ol
Inughtor." Tho crowd with Huyes
havo un enviable facility for boing easi
ly amused. Mrs. had better Jemaincd
in Washington and kept her eye on hor
Murphy friends.
An F.xiled Pastor.

no rcqucsicu an tnoso who were wit

eight of tho members stood up. "All

Butt turned pule and bade the us-
scmulugo lureweil.
Tit for Tat. Grunt, to accommo
date Huyes, issued an ordor on the 3d
of March last, ordering the army out
of Louisiana and South Carolina. Last
week, whilo "tho government" was
stumping Ohio, Grant telcgraphod
nayea to re appoint his brother-in-law,
Rev. Kramer, Ministor to Denmark,
and Gen. Adam Badcan, (Grant's mil
itary butty and biogrnphor), Consul
General at London. It was all agreed
to.
Without Orders. ThCjTyronoVm
ocrnt of Friday says that Isaao Boar,
late an engineer on tho Tyrono Divis
ion, was arrested at Altoona on Mon
day for recently running his engine
from tho Summit, on the Tyrono and
Cloarfield road, into tho railroad yard
at this place without ordors. He waa
taken to Belletonlo and released on
$500 bail for his appearanco at tho
next term of court.
"Hip, Hip," Etc. Tho Philadephia
Timet breaks out in this way: "Gen
eral MeClellan will accept the nomina
tion for Governor in New Jersey and
he will run liko greased Jorsoy light
ning. The best thing tho Republicans
can do is to shut np shop, declare that
they don't care a darn about tho thing
anyhow, and left the band play."
Decidedly Curt. Gen, Walker, tho
Domocratio nominee for Attorney Gen
eral of Virginia, tho other day, whilo
discussing the financial condition of the
country, among othor things said : "Re
pudiation ia larceny, and forcible ad
justment is highway robbery." If any
other man can state tho case in fewer
words, let him bo heard from.
Hayes Makes a Mistake. When
a Surveyor General for Montana was
appointed tho othor day, it was sup
posed he was an Ohio man. It has
transpired, however, that this was a
mistnko ; bo Is from another part of tho
country. Fortunately it Is not too
Into to revoke tho appointment and re
ward some Ohio man.
A RitiHTEous Result, A solemn
warning of tho peril of prosecuting ed
itors ftir libel has been given In Leba
anon, whoro tho verdict was in lavor
of the editor, and the libelod man is in
jail because he couldn't raise the money
to pay the costs.
Queer "Times." Tho wicked Chica
go Timet suggests that when Hayes
noxt wants to kiss a senator he should
"try Brnco foolorod of Mississippi,"
Tho osculnlory surfaces of llrncs have
all the oxpansiveness peculiar to his
race.
Clifford Ncglcy, a son of Gcnoral
James E. Negloy, ex-Congressman for
tho Pittsburg district, has just been
sentenced by tho Erio court to $25 fino
and a year in the penitentiary for lalse
pretense.
A PnETTT Balance. Tho four car.
pot-baggers in the Senato will bold tho
balance ol powor and oan at any time
defeat a party measure by voting with
tho Domocrats. They bold the whip
and Hayes will fool its lash.
Boston Corbott, who shot Wilkes
