But what are you going to do about
the Camoron-Grunt unit blocked nut
for Pennsylvania ?
SAiiDLK-BAaniD. TheTilden 'boom
ers" in this State are opposing the nnit
feature in the election of delegates to
the Cincinnati Convention, while in
New York they all go for the nnit
rule.
Sehd Them Adrift. It is said u pe
tition has been presented to Governor
Jloyt to dismiss Secretary Quay and
to resist the removal of Attorney Gen
eral Palmer, who refused to recom
mend Keroble's pardon.
A Bold Man. Tho editor of the
Bellcfonto Republican, notwithstanding
the Grant nnit rule adopted by bia par
ty irionds, has blocked out a ticket of
bis own : Blaine, of Maine, for Presi
dent, and Ferry, of Michigan, for V. P,
Poos Fkllow I The editior of tbo
Beaver Star got himself awfully tan
gled last week. Ho is a great Tilden
man for President j but some outsidor
injected a column of Seymour matter
into his columns. Now, he arises and
explains that he is for Tilden first and
last.
Hanoock. It looks now as though
(ioneral Winficld Scott Ilaooock would
receivo a two-thirds vote for President
in our approaching Stale Convention.
Ho comes from noble Revolutionary
stock. His grandfather executed tbo
boldest signature on tbe surface of tho
Declaration of Independence, and the
General has done tho same thing when
called Into requisition.
Tut TARirr Kobbrry. The editor
of the tbe Washington Post, in alluding
to this legal matbod of theft, says:
"Tbe word 'protection' has a kindly
and benevolent sound. It seems gen
erous and honest. But as most of tho
great crimes of all tbe agct have been
perpetrated in tbe sacred same of re
llgion, so tbo greatest robbery of mod
era times ia mado possible because it is
called 'Protection.' "
A Financial Measi'M. Washing
ton journals and correspondent are
just now crediting Senator Wallace
with Introducing one of tbe best finan
clal measures evor brought np In that
body. The Post, in alluding to it, re
marks:- "Senator Wallace's financial
bill is a good measure, wise and time
ly, just and expediont. Itproposesto
confine the Treasury to its legitimate
functions and mako the use ef public
funds in aid ot stock speculations an
Impossibility. If this bill does not pass,
Its failure will be due to no lack of

In addition to all theae charges, fuel,

tho occupant of tho White Itouae ia at
no expense but tor tho food and dress
ing of his lamily, and most of tho for
mor comes from tho Commissary De
partment of the army, at wholesale
prices for tho choicest articles. This

Gazette.
A .Nut for Hayes. An Ohio nuin,
who has known Rutherford for over
forty years, perpetrates a conundrum
of this stylo : "We would like to hnve
tho few portions w ho aro as free from
the surveillance of managers of asy
lums for tho feeble-minded, and who
still believo that Mr. R. B. Hayes is an
honest man, inform us, if they can,
whut the union is between him and
that well preserved specimen of a cut
throat and a political vagabond, J.
Madison Wells. Why is it that Wells
is always ablo to bring Mr. R. B.
Hay os to tonus, no mailer bow hu
miliating or degrading they may be
even to tho nomination to a rosponsi-,
bio office of one of bis sons, so obscure
that it requires a commission to dis
cover who hois? Was tho orcaturo
Wells sharp enough to get Mr. Ru
therford B. Hayes down in black and
white before bo stolo for him the votes
thot made him a dc feirto President ?
Is he still possessor ot Mr. ITaycs' con
science and the remaining shreds of
his reputation ? On what theory can
theso innooents account for this dis
graceful compact othor than that of
crime the guilty knowledge of which
both share, but of which Mr. Hayes is
the pricipal beneficiary?"
Decidedly CoNsohiNo. Tho Fraud
ulent Vice President, Wheeler, does
not like to stay In his seat in the Dem
ocratic Senate. The Washington Post,
in alluding to bis last run-off, remarks :
The season of piscatory sports having
arrivod, the Aoting Vice President of
the United States throws down bis
gavel and reaches for bis fishing rod.
In othor words, Wm. Almon Wheeler
vacates tbo Prosidential chair of the
Senate and turns bis longing gaze to
ward the merry brooklets that babble
among the hills beyond Malone. After
be has devoted a fow hours to digging
angle worms bohind tho barn tbe lono
fisherman will disappear from the pub
lio gaze for some woeks. The absence
of this important official from public
dutiee for a pretraeted period will be a
severe test of our system of govern
ment, but the old machine has stood
such strains, and the patriotio mind
will bo sustained in this crisis by tbe
cheering hope that tho same beneficent
Providence that has brought np thro'
perils past will still vouchsafe ns safe
deliverance from danger! to come."
Amonii tat MissiNo. Brevet Brig
adier Genoral Henry Pleasant, who
died at Pottsville, Pa , on Friday,
April 2d, would have been better
known to tame bad his efforts in con
nection with the Petersburg mine dur
ing the late civil war been properly
seconded by his brother officers. His
project of blowing np tbe Confederate
fort situated on Cometery Hill, in front
of Petersburg, Va., was looked upon
with comparative indifference by Gen
erals Grant and Meade, and was not
wholly successful because, as General
Grant subsequently said, "Tbe ad
vance was intrusted to General Lcdlie,
the very worst goneral officer in tho
Army ol tbe Potomac." Hud the en
terprise been successful it is possible
our sectional struggle might bave ter
minated in July, 1861, at Petersburg
and not in April-, 18C5, at Appomattox

will alao reduco the pay of numbcra of

diminish tho pay-roll while the quality
of the news und commont furnished
will be deteriorated. Tho business of
printing is of such vastly greater im
portance than that of Tnaking paper,
that it is simply monstrous tn tax the
grcator industry to enrich a few
wealthy manufucturcrs. The Intelli
gence of tho American people t omes
one hundred-lold mora from tho gen

Tho inurvelomly cheap form in which

portant element in this machinery for
the spread of knowledge a machinery
which has fur outstripped tho dreams
of tho (ji raids und Smithsons, who
have sought to benefit their fellow
men by endowing institutions to serve
the sumo end.
As tor the wood pulp millionaires,
who prostitute their seats in Congress
to maintain their monopoly, their
course is just us corrupt as if they sold
thoir votes. As long ns public opinion
will permit this sort of thing n thing
which the fathers sought to gnard
against by enacting that bankers should
bo incligiblo to scats in Congress and
that importers could not become Secre
taries of tho Treasury we may expect
a carnival ol raacality in public life.
To howl about a deficiency in tho Star
Service, and bo silent about tho fla
grant immorality of members voting
money directly into thoir own banks
or mills will not justily any talk in

nambor of complaints received by the
Secretary of the Interior of the squan
dering by pensioners of the monoy re
ceived by them from the Government
bas induced the Commissioners of I'en-

passugo of a bill providing that whero
pensioners are given to intoxication,
are insane, or bave abandoned their
families, or in prison, that their pen
sions shall be paid tn their wives, chil

mittee on l'onsinns recently heard
Commissioner Bontlcy on this subject
and was so favorably impressed with
his views tbat a bill has keen prepar

immediately. The same subject was
brought to tho attention of tho Senate
Committco on Pensions, and they will

a lot of "loynl Christian statesmen,"

The next crime committed by these

A terrible exciting alitor occurred
ui Saturday murning, at Caledonia,

fuir :

A man named Hurry Kngliah lived
ut Culudonia. Ho has for a long time
been regarded as a dangerous charac
ter, nnd justly so, as has now been
shown. Knglish nas been guilty of a
number of forgeries in Klk, McKean,
and other counties. He had become
emboldened by bis success and grew
more reckless in bis operations. Va-
nous uuempts were inauu to arrest bCcauso they aro tbo growth of years
loin, and onco or twice ho was taken of roeklcH. appropriatiuna, and also bo
into custody but managed to get ,. ,,,. ' . ' .,: ,..,

ly. Friday mgnt last, J nomas
lluike, Justice of the Peace, of St.
Mury's, acooniianied by t'onstublea
Philip llollmcr and I'runk Wurnolh,
sturted for Caledonia with a warrant
to arrest Knglisb. They arrived at
their destination ubsut eleven o'clock,
but did not proceed to Knglish's house
until 5:30 A. M., 8uturduy, (May 17).
Knglish knew that warrants woro out
for his arrest and he only remained
with bis family during the night. At
tno Hour memionen tno omeers cuiieu ,
Knglish up and notified him of their
intention to arrest him. Without ut
tering a word in reply Mgiisn gave
an tinearthlv yell, left the othcers
standing at the door, ran up stairs and
locked bimsell in a closet.
nFIIIKNI.in THE HA I.I.
Tho officer followed, demanded ad
mittance, whereupon English fired
three shots ut lliem through the pan
nels of tho closet door, wounding Jus
lice of tho Puaco I'm Ico in the lug.
liurke returned tho flro twice, through
the door, wounding Knglish in the left
hand. At this point A. J. Hummel,
father in law of English, appeared on
the scone and told the otllcers thut
they had shot Knglisb, and warned
them to go down stairs or he would
shoot them. The otllcers sturted to
go down stuirs when Kiimrnel handed
Knglish a loaded Winchester rifle.

aroused and tht house surrounded.
Warneth was removed lo the village

prevailed through nut the town. Tho'
crowd held tho desperado nl boy. but
with the irtmost coolness he would an-
proach n window and tnke (IWibcrnlo

another fatal SHOT. 1
Tho first shot Kmrlish fired from tho,
window struck Constable llollmer,
who subsequently died from the wound.
He was an aged man, and boro the
tilloof'.ludi'e. iShcoting was continued
between Knglish and Iho crowd. A
number of shots weru tired at Knglisb,
but without taking etlect. The siego
was continued until about 8 o'clock,
when English, watching his opportu
nity, escaped from tho rear ol tho
house, at a timo when nobody was
guarding that portion of his residence.
Ho ran liku a deer across tho fields,
and no less than a dozen shots wero
tired at him, but only ono took effect.
This shot wos fired by a, Mr. Lewis
b'egley, of Williamsport, wbo was arm
ed with a Winchester rifle. Ilia ball
struck Knglish in tbe calf of tho right
leg. The outlaw dropped on one knoe,
run a fow steps further, dropped again,
but only lor an inslunt, when bo reel-
od around and fired four shots at his
pursuers, none of which "took effect.
ILRKINU TO Till WOODS.
Knglish succeeded in getting into
the woods and disappeared among the
bushes. Tho effort to capture him
woro kept up, a large number of rill
tens joining in tho hunt. Sheriff Oyster
of this place, (Itidgway) having been
summoned, proceeded wilh a posse
to tho sceno. Tho latost advices re
ceived bero are to the effect that En
glish has been surrounded, tho citizens
being on one side nf him and the ofll
ccrs on the other, but they are not able
to get near him, as it involves groat
danger, ho being armed with a sixteen
shooter, and being well supplied with
ammunition. The doctors believe ho
is badly wounded, and that he will
soon die, if not captured. A reward of
(T00 has been offered for his body dead
or alive. Kngliih is a married man
and has two small children. Ho was
raised about St. Mary s, is 40 years old.
and measures sit feet six inches' in his
storking loot, and weighs 240 pounds.
Il is said that hois a man of very
pleasing address when not excited, but
lhat he Is treacherous. Ho was arrested
once by a Constable, and went along
with the officer very pouceably quito a
distance, but upon coming to a point
where the road crossed another, he
drew a revolver and directed the Con
Hlablo lo push ahead, and that if he
undertook to go the same road that he
(Knglish) was about taking bo would
kill him.

tbe tragedy occurred, on Saturday.
From biro the billowing facts aro ob
tained: Tbe wounded mull wero carried to
Dixon's bote! and placed in tho sitting
room, which soon boro tho appearance
of an hospital. Bollmer lay on two
boards supported by ban els on end,
and Warneth lay on a lounge, with a
blanket thrown over him. Doctors
iiartinun, of St. Mary's, and Sivoiror,
of Hencr.ette, rendered tho wounded
men all the service that human aid
could offer. Warnctb seemed to be the
most seriously wounded ot tho two, as
the ball had struck him in the lower
part ot the stomach and had taken off
a portion nl his liver, llo was lolly
oonscious of all that was going on, but
ho was as calm as if nothing had hap
pened, informing thoso around hi in
that ho was prepared to die. Esquire

the Committee on Postofticcs ana Post
Heads' bo directed to investigate the

was used as a placo of assignation hy
Postmaster I'oarce, thereby causing
great scandal, which resulted In two
attempts on I'uarco's lifo, onco by his
wito and onco by his mistress, a young
Irish girl, which resulted in the suicide
of 1'earce's wile. Tho fact will also bo
cited that tho position of Postmaster
in ono nf the south-western Khodo
Island offices was sold for cash ; also
that tho defaulting Postmaster at
Woonsockot has never been prosecuted,
but was allowed to depart and engage
in business in tbe West. Pacts will
also bo cited connected with thedefal :

Charles R. Craytnn, whose bondsmen
have not soilled as yet tor the f 37,0041

hypothecated a largo quantity of post
age stamps belonging to the Govern
ment, depositing them as oollntoral so
onrity in a national bank of which tho
present Postmaster, Henry W. G'ard
nor, was Presidont and director, and
tbat the appointment of Gardner was
to prevent an exposure of the unlawful
deposit of stamps in his bank.
