It is re ported by a prominent citizen of Mauch yumiic, who Rives as his authority a pro- jessionai gentleman of Lchlghton, that Mr. Ilarvov B. Smith, nf UV.nlmi-lv. who Is the Democratic candldato fop onemt or uaruoti county, visited the ijenigiiton fair one day last week and whllo there became somewhat damajji'd InontaJly by too frequent collisions with the cup that Inebriates, not cheers. The story goes thut Mr. Smith was in company with an Andrew Jaekassonian Democrat who was Introducing lilln to various voters. Jlr. Smith's demoralis ation became so romplote during the day that his friend, when asked 'Is that James Gallagher?' replied that It was. Afterwards, when asked why ho made such an answer, he is talA to have re plied that he 'was ashamed of Smith,' " Mr, Smith arrived In Lehlghton on the U. -07 a. m. train Thursday, the 8th Inst., and took dluner witli us, leading shortly after on o'clock for the fair grounds. At that lime he was strictly freo from the influence of liquor of any kind. We met Mr. Smith again In tlm evening when on his way to tho V. depot,aboutlO minutes befero 7 o'clock, and held a shoitconver&ulioii with hlui, and most emphatically state thut he, omttn, at that time was In nowayiiu aer the influence of liquor.

Mr. EniTOit. Sir: The editorial In the Gazette of last week casting an Im putatlon upon Mr. n. B. Smith, that he was In a drunken condition while at the fair is manufactured out of the whole cloth and an untruth from beginning to end I eaw- an,i talked with him during the day and evening and ho was nt no time drunk nor unbecoming In his ac tions in a gentleman. Although a lie piibilcan, J deem it my duty as a matter of justice to Mr. Smith to deny such a report. Very Respectfully vours, . A. HoitN. We think it would be a graceful act on the part of our esteemed coteinpor ary, the Gazette, to retract the charge preferred agaiust Mr. Smith. IcosiJtvMr.vraM A PUBLIC CARD. Why li It that Editor Kauch attempts to throw his little dirty slurs upon Mr. Kapsher, hU conferees and friend"? Why Is It that Editor Kauch has be come the champion of Pike county? Why U It that Editor Ranch cares so littleabout the interests of Carbon Co ? Didn't Mr. Rapsher concede the Seua turshlp to 1'ike Co.? ,uon't tailor Ranch know that Tike land Monroe are amply able to take care tot their own Interests, without hla aid? Don't Editor Ranch know that on Nov. 4th, 1881, the total otc of Plko and Monroe for Presidential Electors was 6903-wh!Io-C,f rboii Co. alone polled (W30 that Is to fay Carbon bail 731 mora votes than I'lkeTind Monroe together. Yet each of the said counties has three Couferees.Seuatorlal and Congressional. Carton Co., with at least twenty times the business interests of Pike, and more votes and business interests than I'lke and Monroe combined, has only three conferees, Have Plko and Monroe not been tak ing, caro of themselves? They don't need any of Ranch's help, nor docs Mr. Rapsher." Why didn't Plko and Monroe, let Carbon know when and where tho lato Senatorial Conference, was to be held, merely .as a matter of eourtesyr - Mr. Rauch evidently sees no Angel In his pathway like Balaam's Ass did, to turn lilin from Ids folly. Mr. Rauch greedily publishes little fdlly article from tho Milford Mtpateh, undoubtedly Inspired by JiliuiMr. to In jure Mr. Rapsher and the.Denun.raiic ticket, and he alio publishes many of his own small productions hjs own monopoly. . Muuopoly don't take well, especially Ranch's kliid, yet I believe that .real monopoly will stand higher In history than1 -Balaam's Ass, because inonopoly-is-wrong anat grinds Umvn and' opprussna the poor peoplj, Mr luuuiier can wen afford to have tho enmity of political hirelings-like Rauch, It will only strengthen him and tho ticket which he to nobly advocates among tho people. But tho historical fact must not be forgotten, that the Am wbldUbepajpueUBiiUuiii. rode was a She Ass; and the- scriptures say, "The "dunib Ass, speaking with juan's voice, "forbade the madness of the prophet," Iflfaifcli could only see an angel In lil. patli,- like the Ass djd, perhaps even ur"-vn a. w Wic. lint liniich will hardly be able. to jcc aa much as tho Ass did.

He began his reign with a general massacre of relatives, and has continued to rule as lie began. Elko all Oriental mon archy ho believes himself to bo tho greatest and most powerful ruler in the world, and his pride has at length In volved him In such troubles with the British Government as aro very likely to lead to Ids deposition, and tho an ncxatlon of his kingdom to the British possessions In India. In 1820 similar causes led the English to Invade Bur mah, and the war resulted In the loss of a large part of tho most fertile territory of tho kingdom. It would probably be the best thing that could happen to the country If England should annex Bur mah to her possessions, and put Thee- baw where he would do no more harm for the rest ot his life.

It is do- nicd, however, that there has been any actual attack on Bulgaria. The Powers will doubtless Interfere In the end and prevent any serious conflict. Bismarck is said to be determined that there shall be no fighting. Broairiiii's Hew Yuri Letter. Soeclal to tho Cahuon Advocate. The revelations now being made be fore the Commission which is looking into tno workings of our Excise Board are as disgraceful as anything yet brought to light In tho history of tills ill-governed city. A license is applied for by tho keeper oi a disreputable dive, the known resort of prostitutes and thieves. There was no doubt about the character of the place, and when tho Exciso Commis sioners made application to the Police Captain of tho precinct for a report, ho promptly reported against it. The pro prietor of tho place, a notorious thief, finding his nefarious business blocked, applies for aid and advice to a local politician. This worthy, a gentleman of Influence In the ward, advises him to get somebody elso to apply for the li cense, although the person obtaining it has to swear that no ono but himself is interested In tho business, and the gen tleman of Influence promises to see the matter through for $300. There cer tainly eohld never have been a better test of tho value of political Influence, for the thrco Excise Commissioners had voted unanimously against it. The po lice captain of the precinct had reported against Jt. The jdacc was known to be u thieves' den, when tho gentleman of influence steps Into tho ring. First and foremost io .procures a reputable man to commit open and deliberate perjury; ho swears that he alone is Interested; ho pays five hundred dollars to the go-between, and hey, presto, fly, the license Is granted without any further delay. Bad as. this city Is, there never was a more flagrant case than this, and the man who received the money acknowl edged the fact without blushing, anil the only satisfaction that ho gave the commission was, that he did not sell his political Influence for nothing, and If Ik; Imd known at the time of his ap plication that Captain Williams had re ported against the place, he would have charged him double w hat he did. It seems as If every public ofllce was hon eycombed w ilh fraud. Formally years th Comnilssloiiershlp of Jurors bus bijep worth more than the Presi dency of the rutted Stales. The salary, though liberal, would scarcely furnish whisky and cigars fo'r the Incuiittout, but it is as inuch of a prlzo as Consoli dated Virginia was when they struck ihe big bonanza. You uiay ask how this Is. Well, simple enough, In Its way. The business of making up juries for the Courts Is delegated to tho Com missioner of Jurors. In making up the IKdl supposu ho puts hi tho box from which he draws the names of a lot of rich men Henry N.Sinith.S. V. White, ('. P. Huntingdon, Mr. Jaffray, Mr, Bates, Judge lllltou, Jay tionld, W. II. Vanderbllt and Russell Sage; now Out of the lot ho draws tenor twenty such names as these. Tho Deputy ierves them with a notl.ee. Here Is tho- caso of a very ilch man" whose business would suffer by hla absence, being com pelled to hit In a foul smelling court for weeks to listen to cases of murder, as sault and robbery. All the surround ings are degrading and disgusting. If the rich. man has a sick wife cr child, or lias Impoi taut business out of town, so much the better for tho commissioner of jurors the rich man Is willing to Jy for his Immunity; and tho official Is lilt ... . l ., .

War has been declared between tho factions, and 'the County Democracy has staked lis all upon the Issue. If It Is beaten In the coming election, It goes out of sight asa pollUciU factor, and no man prominent In its organization, from Hubert 0. Thompson to Fatty- Welsh, need expect a chance at the public crib for the next ten years. Irving Hall Is ground to pieces between tho upper and the nether millstone, and when the bolting Is fin ished there will not ho enough of It left to make a respectable Sixth Ward affi davit. If Tammany fs defeated In the a juaro fight which is forced upon It this fall, the oldest Democratic organization lu the.l'nlted States goes down in ruin, never to ilso as a dictating power In Democratic politics again. Taminanv Hull, In which tho Democratic Ark of the Covenant was supposed to be kept, has not the first spark of Democracy In lis composition; Itls an Autocracy pure and simple; ono man commands, and all tho rest obey. Any question of the Czar'fc pow er, or right to obedience, was punished by Instant decapitation, and all tho relatives of the poor wretch might just as well have been pariahs or lepers. This condition of servile and absolute slavery has awakened a bitter ness of antagonism which will only bo satibHed by the political destruction of our faction or tho other. Of late years Tammany has been a most unreliable factor In Democratic victories, nnd this seiipe of iiivecurily has made many men who have been identified with tlm n:irtv all their lives prefer Ignominious defeat 10 an existence wiueli Is the pi ice of de grading and intolerable slavery. In any num., me propie win no me gamers. Tho political hacks who havo dominated our politics for tho last two decades will havo to step back, and make place for Belter men. It will compel all parties to raise tho standard of their nomina tions, and perhaps brine us to e-ood government at last. While the stock market may not bo regarded as tho pulse of trade, there Is little doubt that it Is the sciatic nerve, and wo watch It with considers hln anxiety. 1 here Is no very good reason why stocks should advance, but, never theless, they have gono up at a rate that nas iiiaucino Dears' ueaus swim, and wlileli lias In the past thrco weeks brought many of them to grief. When an operator line Henrys. Smith goes down, all tho world hears of It; but nothing is sau ot the petty gamblers who have dropped their all. and then sunk Into poverty and aro never beard of again. I know a dozen who went under the samo day Smith failed, but their names never got Into the papers, though their ruin was absolute and irre- parauic. Tho appearance of two celebrated American, actresses In New York at the same time 1$ a sort of challenge for supremacy In .which the public has taken a very lively Interest. Mary An- iiursuii comes oaeic to us, lllislicd with foreign triumphs. She has been noticed by Royalty, netted bv Louis nml T)mU-m and Marquises and Earls and Counts aim unties and all sorts of neonle. It would not bo at all siirnrislni if Mile young lady from the Buw (-trass resion nan nor stately Head turned and came back tons looking' down on her poor iviaiiuiis. cerium il is mat awn iq nn tho Mary who left us two years ago. She brings back an English company to support her, and while they havo not put up the sign on tho St'arTheatie, "o Americans need apply," the fact stales us In the face that there arc none In her company nor Is tbern IlkMv n lie any during the present season. Her return creates no jtirore, and the critics asreo that while she looks well nnd speaks fairly, making lovo to her is like uugging an iceuerg. At the Union Square appears Miss Margaret Mather, who Is as different ironi .hiss Anderson as It is possible, for two women to be. Without M!m An. derson s physical advantages, she has me divine lire of true genius, which Miss Anderson never bad. When Miss Mather sneaks It thrills vim llk-n .in electric shock. You may admire Miss Anderson but she never mm-ii vnn. in witnessing .the performance of Miss Mather u forget tho theatre and the actrcsSj you seo only the character be fore you and tho woman. Mary Ander son Is always Mary Anderson Is always an actress, not always a good one, and uch-i a great one. The season onens ansnlelnntlv Cm. both of these ladles, but -Miss Mather carries the sympathies of the. town; for while she does not taboo an English ac tor or actress, believing art to he uni versal, Americans have a chance, and her instantaneous recounltlon bv the mblle and the press has made hersne- ccss assured.

FROM WASHINGTON Prom our Regular Correspondent. Washington, D. C, Oct. 17, 'So. The advent of a new Congress will In troduce a number of pcoplo Into Wash ington society who havo never trodden its tangled ways before. Many will bo lost in its Intricacies, during their first season, itmlwill do well if they get a fair understanding of it by tho end" of their term. Society here Is unlike that of any other city In the world. Etiquette that Is accepted elsewhere cannot al ways be successfully applied here. The. social relations are semi-political. Many havo written upon tho subject, and at tempted In ono way and another to give Illustrative examples of Washington life, but their essays In this direction have been far from comprehensive, and tho difficult themo ' remains, and wlll probably always continue undefined. Even thoso who havo been reared to Washington society fromtlieir earliest days, are seen to.faU wheji'tjicy attempt to nnalyjo It. 'fh'o President and hfs Cabinet, together with the court fain!, lies, are supposed to hold tho social lead; and so they do on all State occas ions, when society becomes merged In diplomacy 'politics or tucro formalities. Hut as a matter of fact our titled offic ials aro not necessarily given precedence lu more private circles. The edncatlon and social relations of two Cabinet olll- eers wives may be as different us nossl ble.

OPERATOR PRATT'S MISTAKE. HK TOOK THE CHANCES AND SENT ONE TRAIN INTO ANOTHER. EXACTLY WHY EI01IT FKHSOXS' WURH K1M.E1) ASP MANY INJURED ON TUT. IIA'CKENHACK MEABOWB ON HtTNllAY RIGHT PKATT's ADMISSION'S. The collision on tho Pennsylvania itallroad, on the Hackensack Meadows, near Jersey City, on Sunday night, was caused by the carelessness of Thomas P, Pratt, the telegraph operator at Marlon, which Is the last station, going west. In Jersey City. The Pennsylvania Pail- road many years ago adopted the block system. Its tracks arc' divided Into sections, and at no timo are two trains allowed to stand or move on the same section. Not until a section Is reported clear can a train enter upon It. One of these sections begins at Marlon and ex tends westward to the Fish House, a signal station situated a short distance beyond tho scene of the accident. Pratt, who Is a small man, 20 years old, went on duty nt 0 o'clock on Sunday evening In the telegraphic signal towcratMarlon. Tho emigrant train approached the tower at 8:12 P. M. The section ahead had been reported clear by the operator at the Fish House, and Pratt correctly flashed a white light as a sign to the engineer of tho emigrant train to go ahead. The train passed a minute later. At tho coal s'.mio beyond tho Hacken sack It stopped for coal and water, At 8:24 P. M., or eleven minutes later, tho outward-bound Southern express came thundering along through the big cut In llergen Hill, drawn by Long-legged No. 10, tho largest locomotive on 'tho Toad. Pratt had not heard from the emigrant train since It had disappeared In the mist. It had not been reported from tho Fish House, as It would have been if it had passed that station. Hn best taled for a moment as to what ho should do, whether to stop the outirolii" express with the red danger signal or give it the white light. After a few seconds of indecision he came to the- -conclusion that the emigrant train must have passed off the section and that owing to tho Inattention of thu operator at the l-lsli House, it had not been rcnorti'd Ho accordingly displayed .1 whlto light. and the express held on Its way at tho iiuc oi loriy nines an hour. It had no sooner passed him than I'ratt began to nave misgivings as to the courso he had taken. He called the Fish Houe operator on tho wire, and learned, tw ins horror, that the emigrant train had not arrived there, but must still bo lumbering alone the sect on. T ien. featlng that an accident was Inevitable, ho directed the Fish House man to sh6w- the Incoming Lehigh Valley train com ing on the other track and then duo mere a red light. Hut It was too late. The Lehigh train had already entered upon the section. It continued on Its course until Owen Hall, the engineer, nas annosi surprised out or his senses uy seeing not 11 tracks choked with wrecked cars twenty yards ahead of him lie wiustieu ttown his urnKcs- and re versed his locomotive, but In an Instant his engine had plunged Into the wreck anil was pushed down the embankment Piatt remained at his post until 1 o ciooic Jlonilay mornln. When h was told that ho was wanted at Police Ileadiiuartcr.she said he expected to be arrested, and had been advised by Id: menus 10 runaway; but as he had not intended to do any wrong, he deter mined 10 remain and lal:o thu ennsn- quences of his error. Ho was arraigned later In the day before Justice Wanser, ,1.-11 i-uiiiimtied 10 jail 10 await the result of the Inquest. Pratt has been 111 mo company s employ four years. The bodies of four victims wcro ills covered Monday beneath the ruins of me I.ehlgh Valley engine. They had been forced Into the soft earth by the engine a weigiu. in nildllloll to these mere was this uiisslu!! part of the bndv of a woman that had been recovered on Sunday night. This victim was about S3 years old, and a Norwegian. She and a man had been taken up by thu I.ehlgh Valley engine as it drove through me emigrant car. The body of tho man was round live feet under ground. Ho appeared to bo about 23 years old. Three 01 me new oodles round aro those of boys, one about 8 years old, one about 11, and tho third about 12. One of these had his shoes and coat off. The leg of a boy about 13 years was also unearthed. Tho leg, County Physician Converse says, does not belong to the body recovered last nrght, or to any of the other bodies In tho Morgue.
