As the time draws nigh for the holding
of the Democratio State' convention. It ii
but natural that aspirants should present
their claims and ask recognition, nud all
tbe suitable men bo suggested for State
Treasurer, ths only Stute office to ba fill
ed this year. For this position wo have
had in view for some time, a prominent
citizen of this county, namely. Col. John
Craig, of Lehigh Gap. It is well kuown
that Col. Craig is a large busiueMi man,
nn able financier, and combines all the
requisite qualifications to make n com.
petent and efficient treasurer. The east
ern portiou of the State has bad no Dcm
oer.itio candidate for treasurer for many
years, and is, therefore, entitled to the
nomination this year. In the face of this
claim, we would urge npou the del gates
from eastern Pennsylvania, and especial.
ly those from tbe Xlth Congressional
district, to net as a. unit in the Dcnio-
cr.itio convention, on tbe 28th of Reptini
ber, and present bis name with a will and
purp ise of winning. He above all others
would add strength and dignity io the
ticket.
Col. John Craig has other attributes of
strength, besides those mentioned, which
recommend him strongly to the people
for' this position ; some of these are, bis
popularity, fine executive ability, com
manding influence, aud moreover having
been norava soldier during-the late war,
commanding the 147th regiment Pa. V,
there conld be no discount on his loyally
to the Union during those critical times.
Taking all in. all, we come to tbe cooclu.
siou that Coh Craig would be tbe strong.
est and most powerful opponent the
Democracy could present to tbe corrup
tiouista on tbe Republican side. His
name would be a harbinger of success,
and would arouse the latent forces of tbe
Democratic party to enthusiasm and ac
tion, which would mean triumphant suc
cess. Let Craig be nominated aud he
will be elected.
I'tiE riiM iiCAtj oiri jlohk.
The political situation remains un
changed. Tbe universal feeling which has
existed for months, that Democracy will
score a spleudid victory in tbe npproach
Tng. election, is intensified with tho lapsa
of time, Even Ohio, that hot-bed of Re
publicanism, where slippery Gov. Char
ley Foster is in oommand nud pouring
out bis money with a lavish hand, is
booked to come over to tbe Dtmocratio
side, with a majority that will stagger tbe
leaders of the pvrty who supposo they
are invincible, with unlimited cash and
offioial patronage at command. But they
are likely to find out too late, that there
are some things that lucrative offices and
money will not buy. The refusal of the
Administration to make good to ex-Senator
Conkllng, tbe promises made at Men
tor, daring the last campaign have begun
to react with terrible force. The ex-Senator
may not po sees tbe support of a
majority of the Republican party, but he
controls sufficient votes to defeat tbe Ad
ministration and convince them that iu
tbeir dealings with him, honesty would
bavo been the best policy. We have no
jiympathy itu Mr. UouMing and ue de
test the imperial principles that he rep
resents, but we da ubseit, that he is im
nieiusurulily the siiptnor nf any remeu
tive uihu iu bis puriy to-i'ay, both iu
poiutul ability ondiu hontsiy of purpose,
and though out of office uud nominally
in retirement, we believe that be still Las
the er and controls tb actions of tbe
eonstituucies nf tbe 300 delegates, who
held tho fort to bravely iu tbo Cbfcigu
Convention, until ov icmnaby thobUud
Ubmeuts of the GuiM.Mll.iiiio wing ol
tho party. These men were cajoled into
supporting UarrUl 1, aud they have been
hamelully abused since. Tbe policy ol
Mr Blditse. who, siuce bis acceMnn to
the See returyship of State, lias been tho
master-mind of the Admiuibtrutuin, has
been one of retaliation on those who
thuuited his uwu president! il apiru
tious. He bos unbelt a bitter and relent
less war on bis old time enemy Coukling
ai.d his ollovers, and it is but human
for them to return tbo compliment new,
when tbe opportunity so auspiciously
prweuts itelr. It is not open rebellion
llio critical eondi'iou ot the President
prevents that but it is a factional strug
gle vigoruu-ly carried on in secret.whieU
will provH more deadly and effective thai
an opeu fight.
Tbe uoudilinn of off i'rs here in Penn
sylvania is illustrative of tliU internal
strife in tU Republican party. Tho in
difference on tho part of members of tbo
parly is more marked tbau it has been for
xtliny yuarj, aud it is largely due to tbe
action of Blaine and bis satelites. Un
questionably tbe followers of Cameron,
vould gladly bare overlooked the actions
of Dbiine and Sherman In the Hirrisburg
Convention of lBt year nnd have forgot
ten the boll at Chicago, if the Adminis
tration had fittingly acknowledged their
services in tho campaign last fall. Hat
tbe Administration, in pursuance of the
Blaine plan of punishing all who opposed
his nomination. at Cincinnati and Chica
go,, did not choose to do so. For example
H.-.rry Oliver, who contributed J2.000 to
oarry Maine, when Blaine was wildly ap
pealing for money, r.nd $5,000 more to tho
Indiana campaign, was defeated in his
Senatorial aspirations, becauso Blaine
considered him tho Caracrt n candidate
and therefore bis enemy and a man to be
defeated. Iu a liko manner Col. M. S.
Quay was treated. He raised $7,000 for
Blaine's Maine campaign and $5,000 lor
Indiana, and yet when he was urged for
Secretary of the Interior, and bis valu
able services to tbo party were explained
tol'r.sideut Gurfleld, be was coolly ig
nored and left to his own sweet and bitter
fanclis. And there ore many other cases,
not quite so bud perhaps, but all of
which show tho malignant and ungrate
ful spirit that pervades the Administra
tion. Senator Cameron is credited with
contributing something like $25,000 to
the Presidential campaign and, what was
bettei still for the party, with bringing
about that memorable meeting at Mentor,
which resulted in conciliating Coukling
and Grant and saving the country to
Gaifield; yet, bicause he had previously
opposed Mr. Blaine, he must be made to
feel the Ush of tbe avenger and meet op
position at every turn. It is this sort oi
thing that has disgusted the Republicans
of Pennsylvania in common with their
political brethren of other states and
which tends to disrupt tho parly.
The official prizes this yeur are not
much to contend lor, yet they are worth
securing, while a victory r will be the
means of promoting greattr harmony in
the purty and preparing it for still more
substantial results in 1882.
is a r.vrnic co.him; ?
Mr. John Thompson, President of tbo
Chase National Bank, nnd a mau who is
not given to sens4tion.il conjectures, in
his paper read before the Banker's Con
vention takes a rather gloomy view of the
financial situation. Referring to panics,
he says .
Tbe last panio was in 1873; tbe pres
ent prosperity commenced in 1878. We
have now had three years of extraordi
nary argumentation of riches, much of it
really solid, but most of it emanating
from raising prices or putting up quo
tations.
Referring to the enormous credits
which characterize present dealings, he
very properly advises bankers to beware,
to take a look ahead, and to bo'fully pre
pared for the distrust which will inevit
ably follow contiactlcn when the credit
system is annihilated. Considering that
nineteentwentleths of our so-called
money is credit, .Mr. Thompson suys
there is no wonder that financial storms
burst upon and overwhelm us so sudden.
ly. It is a fact that cannot be denied
that 00 per cent, of the business of both
Americi and England is done on a paper
basis that is, by p.iper tokens, dratts,
checks, notes uud letters of credit; all of
them good enough substitutes while pros.
perity lasts, but utterly valueless when a
panic sets iu.
Mr, Thompson speak words of solemn
warning when he urges the minagers of
our banks epecially those of deposit, to
put on tbe brakes, so that the wreck,
when it does come, may prove less dis
astrous. To show the force of bis logic,
he quotes one significant item from the
panic of 1873, as tallows:
Eirly one mornin? tbe active manag.
ers of three of the New York City banks
were invited to tbe office of Jay Cooke &
Co. Wo were informed that $1,000,000
were necessary by 10 o'clock to save that
bouse from protest. What security do
you offer? was asked. Answer None;
our securities are all used. It is need
less to say that the million was not forth
coining. We left. Iu fifteen minutes
Wall street was iu n panic, aud this is
only a dnpllo.Ue of what ocourred iu
1857, when the Ohio Insurance and Trust
Company suspended.
Messrs. Ruddimau nnd Wolfe and
Representative Thompson, Secretary of
the Legislative Salary Committee, bad a
consultation nt Harrisburg on Tuesday
relative to tbe taking out of a writ in the
case recently decided against the claim
of tbe members of tho Legislature for
$500 more tbau the Stato Treasurer
would pay them. It was decided to re
quest tbe local attorney, Mr. Simoutau,
to take early action in tbe case so as to
insure its hearing by tbe Supreme Court
at its October term in Piltsburg.
Dr. Bliss, of W .tihiugtou and Dr,
Hammond, of New York, do not belong
to the Mutual Admiration Society. Tbe
latter has been sharply criticising Dr.
lili-ss treatineut of President Garfield,
and tbe result U a wrr.iy wrangle in tbe
nuwspiipeis. We must admit that we
coucur with Dr. II lUiinond in tbe opin
ion that hud tho President beeutreeted
liko an ordinary patient, be would in all
probability bo on tbe hili road to re
covery. Jjnies G, Blaine, with an oya to tho
main chance for which he is notorious,
has recently acquired some valuable rail
ro.d property iu Virgin!. aud now be is
au imt aud out repudialor. The present
attitude of the Secretary of State, who
sinco tbe disability of tbe President bus
assum.'d the. functions as far as possible
of tbe Chief Magistrate of tbe Nation, is
not ciil.'iil.itoil to inspire confidence iu
the minds of tbe European holders of our
bonds.
Tbe confidential clerk, wborau away
from New Vork three woks ago, with
$50 000 in cash and securities, belougiug
to his employer, has been arrested iu
England with nil the money except $200,
iu his possession. It is mora than likely
that tbe misguided youth will soon have
au opportunity to learn a useful trade at
tbe public expense.
It seems to be uu unhealthy period
for the dull jnestnnd tbe immoral. Tbeir
careers are brief aud full of liltternesi.
Ths t-peculatire carpeute r, ho recently
levanted with the wife, numey and ward
robe of a Brooklyu saloon keo er, has
been overhauled in Chicago, aud will be
returned to tho "City of Churches" and
tried for grand larceny.
The sad fate of beau'iful Jennie
Cramer, of New Haven, Conn., should
teach every parent In the United States,
a wholesome lesson. In too many in
stances young girls do about as they like
and parents loam when too late, that re
straint on their aotions is always beneficial.
There is considerable dissatisfaction
with Collector Robertson, of New York.
He has not yet set bis "bouncing" com
mittees to work, and expectant place
hunters are very muoh d-jected.
WASHINGTON.
our srr.cut. lkttkr.
Washington, D. C, August 20, 1881.
There, is an evident improvement to-day
in Mr. Garfield's condition. The only
symptom that caused solicitude outsido of
the White Huuso yesterday was the tem
porary swelling eil one of the glands
of tho throat, but the physicians dis
claim uneasiness on this pouut, attributing
Its cause solely to tbe President's extreme
debility. This new complication started
considerable excitement during the after
noon. Tho morning bulletin was a favor
able one; and people began to believe that
after alt tbe road to recovery was nn open
one for the President. The gratifying in
telligence was announced that tbo Presi
dent had resumed bis nourishment without
unsatisfactory results. Hopes were raised
ton high pilch and everything again looked
bright. The later information was of the
came favcable character. Next came the
news that Dr. Agnew thought the Piesl-
lent so much improved that he intended to
return to Philadelphia fur several days. It
was learned before he left that he assured
Mrs. Gaifield that the danger that was sup
posed to hover about the President for the
past four days bad passed away,and that be
was again in a satisfactory and hopeful con
dition. Dr. Agnew was accompanied to the
depot by Private Secretary Brown. On bis
return to the White House Mr. Brown told
thiise who were gathered there'of tbe opin
ion of Dr. Agnew. The temperature of the
President's body varied considerably to-day.
In the morning it was one point less than
normal ; at noon it was 98.4, and this even
ing it had risen to 100, showing a return of
the fever, which has been more or lessabsent
during the past three days. On the whole
the tlay can be stated to have been a favor
able one. All the signs indicate the return
of the stomach to a normal condition by to
morrow, though it will have to bo treated
with a good deal of care for some days yet.
Guiteau has, as heretofore stated, been
engaged In writing up his life, which, he
says, will make a book of SOU pages, and the
episode of yesterday morning seems not to
have interfered with his work. In the pages
he wrote yesterday, and which were bond
ed to the officers, he speaks of "tho late
President Garfield," and writes of Mr. Ar
thur as President of tbe United States. The
impression he has doubtless got from the
guards having been doubled and tbo gener
ul aspect of affairs about the jail. On Thurs
day morning one of the guards noticed that
Guiteau was acting in a rather suspicious
manner and on entering tho cell found a
piece of steel in his possession. On being
asked to drop it lie uncermoniously attacked
the guard with the instrument, and in tho
tus.se! that ensued tbe guard's pistol was ac
cidentally discharged. This brought other
quants ti his assistance and Guiteau was
fiually secured. Guiteau denies having had
the corset steel at all, but the officers are
under the impression that he had been
using it for some time for his own purpose
and keeping it out of, sight. The generally
accepted theory is that, the bed cots being
steamed the first week of each month, at the
last steaming wben they were replaced, the
cot from some other cell, in the slat of which
tbe "cheeaer" had been concealed, was sub
stituted for the one taken out. It is an or
dinary thing to find such things as knives
made of shoe shanks and corset steels about
tho prison, for no knives are allowed the
prisoners. Ol course when found such
weapons are taken from the prisoners. Since
his incarceration there has been nothing seen
by the jail guards to indicate that Guiteau
would destroy bis life, even if ho had uu
opportunity, and the possession of tbe
"cheeser" is not regarded as any indication
that he intended to use it for any purpose
except to clean bis nails, etc. To-day Gui
teau seems quite composed, and is iu his
usual spirits. Tbe mail the assassin receives
is about equal to that of a member of Con.
gress. There has recently accumulated per.
hap3 half a peck of postal cards and letters.
So many come that it is suspected parties
take this means of adyertislugtheir business,
expecting that their communications will
br mado public through the papers. Among
the postal cards received recently the fol
lowing is a fair specimen : "Brimstone
Quarries, I5th August, 1881," 'Comrade
Guiteau: My heart swells with emotion
when I witness the persecution you are
compelled to endure. You did my bidding
nobly, and verily you shall have your re.
ward, such only as lam accustomed to be
stow upon my laithful agcntF. Should you
need anything further to render yonr pres
ent condition more endurable, I will send
seven legions of little black angels armed
with red hot pinchers to make it pleasant
for you. Your's until death, when we will
havo a happy reunion, Satan."

Camp near Colohado Citt, Texas,
August 17th.' 1881.
H. V. MortniiMtR-SiR . The expecta.
tiou which I expressed iu my lost letter
has been duly realized. With 20 other
men, I was detailed to accompany Capt
Livermore on an expedition for explor
ing Western Texas. It Is my iutention
in this letter to show what a modern ex
ploriug expeditiou is like, bow tho work
H bUb-divided, etc., and also which is
tbe proposed route of this one, and leave
for another letter whatever else may seem
of interest.
Tbe expedition is under the immediate
oomnund of Capt. W. R. Livermore, of
the Engineer corps, Department of Texa .
The captain, accordiug to my judgment,
is a ui.eu of great attainments, a thorough
engineer and a good soldier, but eccen
tric uud often foolishly exact- Tbe other
officers of tho expedition are-Surgeon
V. Uavard, medical attendant and botan
ist ; Lieut. M. C Martin, 22ud infantry,
noting commissary of subsistence and
oUervtr ; Lwut. J, A. Johnston, 8th
cavalry, commanding cavalry, and in
charge of topographical survey; Lieut.
W. S. Dunning, 16th infantry, command.
iu(j infantry and geologist. Each officer
has bis respective assistants ; the doctor
has an orderly to collect specimens of
flowers, leaves and plants; the geologist
has an "assistant with the bammar," who
breaks tbe rocks and collects specimens;
the observer lias a recorder and on assist
ant, whose business it is to prepare the
silo selected lor the obsetvations, note
the time at which they are taken, etc;
Lieut. Johnston has a topographical' as
sistant, a clerk in ohargo of the odomo
ten and two draughtsmen to aid him.
Besides these there is at headquarters an
acting sergeant major and an engineer
cletk.
On ths march, each in bis own depart
ment attends to his work; the togograpb-
icol surveying party, with an odometer
carl, prlstnatio compasses, sextant and
barometer make "such sketches nnd notes
as will enable them Co make a map of
tho country in the vicinity of the day's
march, which Ibey do upon "making
camp" and while ths aspect of tho coun
try is still fresh in tlrelr minds. These
small maps ere all preserved, and are to
form ono complete map of Western Texas.
The doctor botanizes and takes such
notes of his observations and examina
tions as, when completed, will form a re
port to accompany tho map. The geol
ogist collects such specimens as he may
deem proper, and upon coming to camp
selects buch as represent the nature of
the country passed over, which he labels
and preserves. Tho observer, or astron
omer, with sextant and chronometers,
takes the position of camps, time, etc.,
which will enable the compiler of the map
to perform bis wcrk with accuracy.
Thus, each in bis department perform
ing bis duty, the result will be a good
map of Western Texas, that, with the ac
companying reports, will afford the emi
grant an opportunity to learn the nature
of the country without going to see it.
Tho expedition, including six officers, 30
cavalry and 30 infautry, with teamsters,
puckers, etc., numbers about 80 men.
The proposed route is from Ft. Clark
to Abilem, via Forts McKavitt and Con
cho, thence westward to Big Springs, tal
lowing the line of the Texas Pncifio RR.,
thence toward the headwaters of the
Canadian river, aud from there to the
Guadeloupe mountains. The last part
of the proposed route is uncertain, since
circumstunceB may completely alter the
intentions of the powers that be.
We are at present in camp on Champ
ion cre.k, six miles from Colorado City.
The country round about is undulating
and quite fertile. The great want in
Texas is water. The seared and desolate
appearance continually before ones eyes,
is eaused almost soltly by want of water.
Tbe soil in this section is a great deal
better than that near the Mexican border.
The grass is higher, more plentiful, and
of a more healthful appearance than that
seen a hundred or two miles southward.
The trees, too, seem less stunted ; wild
fruits are found here and there, while
cactus has almost disappeared.
As we go northward toward that mys
terious tract of country, the Staked
Plains, we are told to expect fruits in
abundance and game plentiful.
So mote it be. Leiiiouton Bot.
