Tbe in consistency of tho average politician is signally illustrated in tho rase of Senator Fryo, of Maine, who lost yoar could not find language sovere enough to denounce the Domocratic-Grecnback coalition in his own Slate, but now urges the Republicans of Virginia to support tbe Mahone ticket which is pledged to tho repudiation of thirteen millions of dollars of Virginia's debt.

OUR NEW SENATOR. Theoditorof the Philadelphia Timet roads Senator Wallace's succensor a bit of tho political riot act in these words : "Sonutor Mitobuil shouldn't be so hasty in annexing bis publio opinions to the opinions of Sonator Cameron. llecauso he is generally accepted as an annex Senator, is no reason why bo must commit all sorts of publio follies simply becausoSenatorCameron makes a sido trade now and then with politi cal adventurers like Mahono. Besides, annex Senator Mitchell is a day be hind the fair in getting on tbo record in favor of Mahone repudiation in Vir ginia. Just whon Sonator Cameron is reportod as sick of the Mahone-Iuddle- borgor-Repudiation movement, Mitch M - -- ten concern. Cameron has too much senso to offend tbe intelligence of Penn sylvania by saying that free schools and fuir elcetions uro to boattainod by supporting repudiation in Virginia. Ho knows that one of the clap trap planks of tho repudiation platform is tho repeal ol tho poll tax as a suffrago qualification, when that tax is tho chief fixed revenue for free schools for tbe equal enjoyment of both races, and bo knows, also, that tho chief hindrance to fair elections in Virginia baa come from the Mahone leaders ; but Sonator M itchell doesn't seem to k now the facts and be rushes in blindly to annox him self to what bo supposoa to bo Bemitor Cameron's opinions. As our annex Senator ho is probably bound to follow Cameron even to the support of repu diation, but bo should be more careful about giving publio reasons therelor. Silence is often golden, and it is espe cially so whon roasons are to bo given in defense of au indefensiblo causo."

Tho Now York Sun always uses vorv plain English. It never obscures its meaning in ambigu ous languago. Every honost man in tho land will endorse tbe Sun's state ment that "it is onr duty to look for the good of tho country undor what ever party happons to be in tho asoond ant. Tbo Republicans bavo been in power too long. Twenty years of un- disturbod possession bavo led thorn into corruption, and into abuses that aro utterly inconsistent witb tbe wot fare of the people. Take, for instance, tbe fraudulent installation of Mr.llayea after Mr. Tildcn had been honestly elected, and consider wbotker such an offenco aa that ought not to be fol lowed by tbe destruction ot tbe party that is responsible for it. Tbe safoty of the Kepublio roquiros that the Re publicans should not remain in power any longer than is necessary to turn tbem out through a regular election." Radical Philanthropists. An ox- chango says: "W. U. Counoil, colored editor ot tbo HunUrille (Ala.) Verald, who is traveling now in tbo West, writes to his paper that tho negro hasn't as good a cbanco in Indiana, wbore the politicians have boon im porting his vote, aa in Alabama, H finds colored boys excluded from white schools by Republican trustees, jubiloa singers refused accommodations in Sonator Logan's and Socrotary ot War Lincoln' State (lllinoi.), colored boys kicked from school rooms in Ohio, the numory of Republican ofllce holdcrx, and In Republican cities the bouses of learning shut in the faces of anxious negro boys and girls." "Tbe Cambria Freeman fiiys that Toonry' was at the doctors' meeting at Cresaon last week. No doubt he bad a consultation hold over bis rase, Netrport Ltiijn. Why, what in the world ails the man? He was one of the most robust at Long Branch a month ago, and shook President Garfield with both hands. And out ol line now T A Good Index. Tho TagUalt, of Leipsic, says that tbe extent of tbe emigration from Saxony is shown by tbe fact that during tbe first four months ol tbe present year the amoont fiaid into tbe savings banks of that ittle kingdom bas been loss by 2,000,' 000 marks than for the corresponding period ot 1880, and the amount with drawn greater by 3,700,000 marks.

Tbo residents of the village of Chip pewa a small town two milos from Niagara Falls, up tho Niagara river, wore startled at dunk by hearing loud crisa tor help from tbe river, which was covored witb an impenetrable fog. It was soon learned that Jobn Lehman and his son and John Groenwood, all residents of that village,wbo had rowed over the American side in the morn ing had attempted to.return at dusk, starting from Port Day, about a mile above tbe rails, but they had been overtaken by a auddon land log com ing upon them as they wero nearing tho Canada shoro. Losing their course they wero swiftly bearing tho rapids and wore being carried to destruction through tbe rushing waters, Tbe town bell was rung. Noma parties lired guns. No otber erlorta under tho cir cumstances could bo made to save tbe unfortunate men, and those who bad gathered on the shore from hearing tboir cries stood stricken witb torror knowing the fearful death awaiting tbo occupants of the boat. Greenwood, aealng bis dangerous position, let go his anchor. It, fortunately, took hold ol tbo rot ka and he waa saved, lie kept shouting for help at intervals at night, and next morning was found riding safely at anchor. I he Lehmans hav ing no anchor in their boat, drifted down with the rapids, shrieking Irant ically for help. Almost by a miracle the current swept them against a pro jecting point, near the Burning Springs, and they were saved. They returned aa quickly as possible to Chippowa, secured aid and waited until daybreak, and with groat difficulty and daring rescued tbeir comrade. COUNTY FAIRS.

Tho wiedoiu and strength ul our Kederul system have beeu tented dur ing the month of July which bus Just paused away. Not lusted bi it was tested from tiilil to IHlitl, and dining tbo seclioiml war, but tested nevei lhu . lesn in a new and linp irUnt way. j Puring Ibo wboleoi me nioiiin nijuiy, excepting only one working day, tho President has been unable to discharge the duties and excremo the powers of his otlice. The public hu not been informed thai, since tho second luy ol 1 July, any ono ot tho seven heads of departments nns neiu any communica tion with tbe President ronpocling any official business. His nrderor instruc tion baa not bcon taken, no far as tbo country bas been told, respecting any Government transaction. I' or a inontn tbo Fcdoral Government bus been without a President "to take care that tho laws be faithfully executed and to commission all publio officers " And yet government life, business life, so cial lilo, having gono on in these United Statos without any Impediment ordis turbanco. No ono has been removed Irom office, and no ouo can buvo been constitutionally commissioned to an ofllce within tbo loot month, excepting on its flrBt day, or the early portion of the second. Vt hy has an event which has ao strongly alleeted to the feelings and sympathies nf men so little aft'ected their interests? First, because so little of tbe busi ness and social life nf the United Slates Is under tbe control and protection of the Government at WasbiiiL'ton, and so much of it is under tho control and protection of tbo thirty-eight Suite covornmonU. And next, becuuso tbo sovereign powers which belong to the Government at wustiuijinn bavo oocn so accurately divided among three de partmentsthe bxeculivo, licgitduuve und J udieiul the hint of v, Inch ban not been affected by tho inability of the President, if Congresa bus been in session no laws could have been enac ted during tho lust mouth, but tbo country needed no legislation, if dur ing tbe whole month ol July tbe beads ol tho departments bad all been strick en down the public businens cuuld prob ably bavo gono on all tho same in charge of tho acting Secretaries, for whom tbo law bas provided, aided by the beads of bureaus. Tho Presi dent bas boen surrounded during bis illness bv one or two officers who aro called "i'rivato Secretaries," wbo are officers of a modern erection quite un known to tho Constitution, and to whom scarcely nn iota of roal power bas been given by law. I bey are mere ly subordinate manual agents and mes sengers. 1 ho real secret of the absence of any political or businons disturbance dur ing the post month bas been in tbe fact that tbe Exocutlve Department at Washington has had so little to do that muni bo dono concerning the politics and buoinons of the couutry.

THE ASSASSIN S PRISON LIFE. The Washington .Nftir published i n interview last woek with (ten. Crocker, warden of tho jail, about Guitcnu's prison life. (ien.

Prom the day ho was brought here no ono bag manifesto 1 any friundly inter est in him. Ho doesn't seem to have any friends. His brother in law wus here but he did not appear to tnko any special interest in him. Thcro was no animosity shown, bowevei. If his mother, or brotbor, or any of his friends came to see him I would let tbem seo him, just as I would do in a case of any othor prisoner. Tho only people wbo bavo been here to see him are those who come nut of curiosi ty. (Juilcau is as quiet as any person. II o seems to have mado up his mind to patiently await the result. Ho has not asked for a lawyer. Ho has not asked to see any ono. I asked him if he wanted a lawyer, llo said no, not at present. He claims to ho a lawyer himaelf. Ho knows enough not" to talk, lie is sane enough for that. Ho has not even expressed a desire to talk with any ono except Mr. liailey, tho stenographer, wbo has been taking his stnlemonls. Ho has sometimes aikcd lo hawo him como. "There is no such thing as solitary confinement in this jail. Thoro is sep arate confinement, (luitcau can hear tho other prisoners talk and can talk with tbem, though bo is separated from them. Tho guards talk with him on subjects conncctod with his prison lifo, but not about tbo Prosi dent. Nobody here wants to talk with him about his crimo. I don't think be has any knowledge ot tbo President's oonditlon. llo rcuds a great deal." "foes he get tbe newspapers?" "He has no nowspapers. llo roads mostly the liiblo and serious works." ' There's nothing peculiar about that?" "Ho, I take no stock in his insanity. Thoro has bcon nothing in his actions here to indicate it any moro than in the conduct of other criminals. I do not think he is a man of strong moral conviction." General Crockor said that fluitcau reads tho Constitution of tbo Vnited States and tho flible moro than any othor books. Besides these ho had road throe boolin belonging; to tho jail library, two novels and one entitled "Nino Years Among tho Convicts; or, Prison Itominisconcos," by Kleazor Bmith.

Then bo was especially interesting. "How did that buppen?" Was my very natural question. ' It was in this way ;"sid bo. "Copt. J. Bugber, an old river man who cumo fiMin up tho Monnngahcla river, was a friend of mine. Ho wus t grout borne mun and ouo day wo wtnt over to a salo of blooded colls ut Alexander's farm at Woodburn, Kentu.-ky. Bughor bought eleven colts and then it began to rain torrents. Wo stod under an umbrella as tbe last colt on the cata logue was brought out. She was a pretty, bright looking Uiing and 1 told Uugber he had better buy bor. Ho suid he had bought enough, und 1 con eluded 1 would take h-i'iuvoll and so' I gave 11-15 for her. I put her in with Btlghcr's colts and tley were till sent ' to Ins lurtn. About a woek after this I went to the furui and aslc.-d where i my colt wn. Iliiglur allowed me n little nervous lookingeorrel colt, which had a piece ol string tied urotind its neck, fte suid thitl i-us my colt ami that tho string had been put on it in order todistingiiixh it.

The sorrel was Maud S. and tho bay was her sinter. Baud has trotted in 08 and the sister can't trot under three minutes. Ilugher put the colt into Hair's liundn to train when she was three years old and in a short time sho did magnificent work. Old man Ilugher died and his son gavo orders to Bairtosell the maro for fXIO. Hair came to mo and wanted me tq buy her. lie aaid she was tho distent thing in the way of horseflesh there was in tbe country, but I did not cure about milking the purchase. After awhile Stone bought the mare for tj.'loO and allowed Hair to manage her. She showed so much speed that William 11. Vanderbilt heard ot her and wanted to buy her. Stone suid ho would sell fur t?l,000, ;'0.000 for himselt'and 1,000 lor liair, provided tho maro trotted In 218. She was put on tho Lexington truck and made tho mile in 217, which was just Dextcr'o timo. Van derbilt bought her and put her in charge ot a man who could not do any thing with her. Ho treated hor very roughly and she would not trot. Mr. Vanderbilt wrote to Stono and said "1 bought that maru for $.'1,00(1 and she can't trot in 2 I don't want to be called an ars. What shall I do about il?" Stone replied that if the mare was sent in him to train he nuuiu liuko her me luitcal minor in tho world, and ho did. Only a few weeks ago a man named Woodipanseo who represented eome St. Louis men, wont to Vanderbilt anil offered him a oertilied check fur ? 1110,000 for Maud, but Vanderbilt only laughed and suid she was not for salo and tbut is the nervous littlo'sorrel colt that he would not keep" and Mr. Hulbert softly rubbed bis chin and looked at me with a queer smilo that spoke volumes. "You suid sho trotted in 2:08," said I; "Do you not mean 2:10 J 1" "Nosir;" said Mr. llulhert promptly. "It is well known that tho mare can trot in 2:08, and what Is more, she has trotted a mile on a regular track on two dillerent occasions. Of course it was in private, ami not on record, but sbo wus limed by competent men with stop watches." S 0 RROYSOF TIIE LE1 IS LA TOR.

A Westirn Kr.MARK. For a sam ple of plain spoakinir on the Western border, we quote from the Lcadvillo Democrat, ot July Uflth, as follows i "Tbe Columbus ((ieorgiat Jimc'.i, la too fresh for anything. Why, man, the stalwarts would not stop at mur der, nor, indeed any other crimo, to wrest the (iovernmout from the hands of the liberals. They stole it once from tbe Democrats, and bought it at another time. The stalwart mayn't nave snot uarneia, at tboy have oom tnitted crimes nearly as bad."

It was tho dreadful loth day of April, 18115. A vast tumultuous on, I puiwmnulu crowd was gutheied mar! the Amor Houhc, hoping thut the iiilal nuvrn uas not Hue. (ienuiul Hutltri attempted to paeily the mob feeling that colli I bo seen rising. Two uiilor lunate wretches had run counter to the sentiment of the muss by ineinua ting that tho deed huh well dune. They wero instantly trampled to the Bouibluuco of humanity. Then the crowd, gloating in the first draught of blood, Kbouted : "To tho World olliue!" Tho rush began and tho result would have boen frightful. Hut at tho mo incut a flag was seen in the hands ot a tall figure on one of the balconies. Tho surging crowd was chocked. Tboy grouped about tbe spot and then a peculiar voico, loud, clear and meas ured like, broke out in this astonishing aposirnplio : "Fellow-olllaena ! Clooda and derkoeaa are roond about llim!

Tho half preaeher hko tone .f the speaker, his large earnest eyes and enraptured visago produced un indcseribahlo effect upon tho seeth ing, passionate crowd. All thought ol carnage vanished. Kvcrybody said, who is he? It was James A. Garfield, and il wus fit, indeed, lliul Ins conH denliul friend should use the lino in telegraphing tho President's raltiinity to his wife. A TANNERY R U USED. Williammi-ukt, Pa., July 1.

Tbo tannery manufactured leather for belting almost entirely and employed about forty men. A abed containing seven bundled cords of oak bark was saved and the hides in the vats wero uninjured. About twelve thousand bides wero dressed annually. 11 win probably bo rebuilt at once. Millard T. Wbiltuker, a well-known printer, formerly of this place, who is w foreman ot tbe Mt.

No mar. or woman can do satisfactory work when tho brain is dull, the nerves unsteady, tbe system relaxed and they feel gen erally wretched.
