Tae chair decided all discussion out of order, and called upon "the sergeant-at-arms" te preserve order or the hall would be cleared. This had the effect, net of re storing order, but slightly abating the hub bub, and the question was taken upon tabling McMclleu's resolution. The re sult was, yeas, 41, nays, 29. J. Hay Brown jumped te his feet and said : "Mr. Chairman, I move that Satur day, May 21, be fixed as the time for hold ing " a long pause, as though he were considering some doubtful point, and then added, "I move we de new ad journ." This odd speech met with laughter, cheers and jeers. J. "W. Jehnsen, esq., rose in wrath and attempted te make a speech, threatening that if the gag was te be applied in this committee an appeal would be taken te the people, who make and unmake commit tees. He was loudly called te order by the chair, but refused te sit down and finally Hay Brown said that as it was plain John John Jehn eon" would "bust" if lie did net have an op portunity or ventilating himself, he would withdraw the motion te adjourn. Mr. Jehnsen, somewhat mollified, said that notwithstanding some differences of opinion the members of the committee all professed te be geed Republicans and he hoped they were. He wished te offer a scries of resolutions, which he thought would meet the approbation of all. They were as fellows : Jlcselcctl, That at the Kepubliean pri mary election te be held in -May, 1380, the chairman of this committee is hereby in structed te place the names of the differ ent candidates for president of the United states en the tickets te be prepared by him in order that each Republican voter may have an opportunity te vote for his choice for president ; and the vote se cast shall be considered te be instructions te our delegates te the national convention te be held at Chicago in June, 1880. Iltxelccd, That the delegates this day elected te the state convention te meet at Ilarrisbiugen the 4th day of February. 1880, arc hereby requested te notify said convention that the Republicans of Lan caster county claim the right te, and will, elect their own delegates under the ruies of their party te represent them in the ap proaching national convention. Mr. Jehnsen made a long speech in favor of his resolutions; Hay Brown opposed them as a heretofore unheard-of preposition and moved te lay them en the table. Anether scene of great confusion ensued, and notwithstanding the decis ion of the chair that a vote te lay en the table cut oil all debate, the debate went en and was participated in by a dozen disputants. Finally it was agreed te take the ques tion upon Mr. Jehnsen's first, resolution. This was done, and the roll being called resulted in :(j yeas and :S2 nays. This partial triumph of the Blaine men threw Grant-Cameren men into some con fusion, but Hay Brown at once moved that the committee adjourn te meet at the call of the chairman, and, alter a world of confusion, the motion prevailed by a vote of -11 te Se, this cutting off all chance of getting a vote en Jehnsen's second resolution and upon another resolu tion which would have been offered, pledg ing the delegates te the state convention te vote for Cel. .1. A. M. I'assmere for Audit r General. i:i:i'eKi-: Tin: katti.i:. Politicians i the Anxious Seat. There weie plenty of Republican poli ticians in town last night, and most of tliem spent the evening at the opera house, where Madame Rente's niinstiels were perfei ming. Seme of the leading lights of both factions were present, but they all were anxious leeks and were net able te long remain sitting. J. Hay Brown, esq., who has never been known te sit in one place for an hour, kept running out at in tervals, as tlid Captain McMcllen. chief of the Heg Ringers. Owen Bricker seemed very anxious and started away befeie the close, but seen returned and called out Capt. McMcllen, who had a long and earnest talk at the deer with the blacksmith editor of the Tn- tittrer. A nuiuncr el tiie "heys who get the money and de the outside work were there also, but they seemed te take mere interest in the show than their leaders. There was a geed sprinkling of country pol iticians among the crowd, and the parquet circle reminded one of a Republican con vention, though it was net nearly se bois terous. During yesterday afternoon, also, there was no little degiee of excitement and anxiety prevailing in the Republican camp. The Bull Ring chieftains get word of the movement of their opponents te steal a march en them, and measures were imme diately put en feet te countermine the scheme of the crafty Heg Ringers. Trust ed henchmen of the Cameren clan, including many of " the best workers in the wards," were dispatched in all direc tions with instructions te summon the faithful and inform them of the urgency of the situation. The genuine alarm of Kshleman, Brown. and ethers of the faction represented by these gentlemen, was ren dered all the mere manifest, by the calm satisfaction of the Heg Ring leaders, who exhibited symptoms that betrayed their confidence of a favorable outcome of te-day's battle. Had it net been for the timely discovery by the ad herents of the house of Lomielef the plan te overthrew them in their own strong hold there is geed reason te believe that the Old Guard would new be included in the list of counties that may be safely counted for month. Biaine at llarrisburg next The American Engine l'inishetl. Fer the past six weeks the engine of the American fire company, Xe. ., has been undergoing repairs at the carriage shop of Fdgerly & Ce., en Market street, and it was finished yesterday. It has teceived a thorough eveihauling. four new wheels and a tongue being the principal improve ments. The engine has been painted in a very artistic manner by Jehn "Whitehead, who docs the work of that kind for the firm. The wheels, tongue and coal box are painted in English vermilion, with gilt stripe, edge with dark blue, between which runs a very small white stripe. On the rear end of the fire box is the word "American," painted in gilt letters with blue edging, en the sides are the figures " 1S33," and at each corner is a big " a " of the same color. The large head-light has been replated, as have the two smaller ones en the rear of the engine. On the front two patent silver plated reflectors have been placed, which are se arranged that they can be moved te threw the light te the front, rear or sides of the engine. The large geld eagle en the front has been regilded, and the heavy bands en the wheel hubs are geld mounted. Other improvements have been made about the engine and it certainly presents a beautiful appearance. It was te have been removed from the shop to day, but en account of the rainy weather it will remain where it is ter tnc present, Glass Hall Sheeting. Several members of the Lancaster coun ty society for the protection of game met at the Park house yesterday afternoon and practiced at glass ball sheeting.

Rew at Ilawlinsville. On Saturday evening a show was given in the basement of Odd Fellows hall, in Rawlinsville.

It. is commended te the attention of these af flicted with Indigestion and Dyspepsia. BRANDY AS A MEDICINE. This new much abused Alcoholic stimulant was never intended as a beverage, but te be used as 11 medicine of great potency in the euro of some of the destructive diseases which sweep away their annual thousands of victims. With a purely philanthropic motive we pre sent te the favorable notice et invalids espe cially these alllictcd with that miserable dis ease Dyspepsia, a specific remedy, which is nothing mere or less than Brandy. The aged, with Iceble appetite and mere or less debility, will tind this simple medicine, when used properly, A Sovereign Remedy or all their ills and aches. Be it, however strictly understood that we prescribe and ne out one anicic. ami tiiat is; BEIGART'S OLD BRANDY, Sold by our enterprising young Brandy has steed the test for trade mark, years, and has never failed, as far as our experience exienus, ami we inereiere give it the preference overall ether Brandies, ue matter with hew many jaw-breaking French titles they are branded. One-fourth of the money that is yearly thrown away en various impotent dyspepsia specifics would suffice te buy all the Brandy te cure any such ease or cases. In proof of the curative powers et Reigart's Old Brandy, In cases et Dyspepsia, we can summon numj hers of witnesses one case in particular we cite: A hard-working larmcr had been mulcted with an exhaustive Dyspepsia ler a number of years; his stomach would reject almost every kind of feed; he had sour eructatiens con stantly ue appetite in fact, lie was obliged te restrict his diet te crackers and stale bread, and as a beverage he used McGrann's Reet Beer. He is a Methodist, and then, as new, preached at times, and in his discourses often declaimed earnestly against all kinds of strong drink. When advised te try Reigart's Old Brandy, In his case, he looked up with astonishment, but after hearing of its wonderful effects in the cases of some of his near acquaintances, he at last consented te fellow our advice. He used the Brandy faithfully anil steadily ; the first bottle giving him an appetite, and before the second was taken he was a sound mau.with a stomach capable of digestinganything which he chose te cat. He still keeps it and uses a lit tle occasionally; and since he has this medi cine lie has been of very little pecuniary bene fit te the doctor. A Puactisixe Piiysicias. H. E.

A SOCIAL EPISODK. Jtlrs. Sjirague's Dlnuer te Mrs. Conkling. One of the Washington papers gives the following description of Mrs. Sprague's recent dinner te Mrs. Conkling : ' One of the handsomest entertainments imaginable, being perfeet in its minutest details, was the little dinner given by Mrs. Kate Chase Spraguc,en Wednesday evening last, te her friend, Mrs. Rescoe Conkling, who is visiting here. The cesy home en Con necticut avenue, which Mrs. Sprague has occupied since leaving Edgewood, is ar ranged with such artistic skill and en this occasion was se beautified by flowers that upon entering the brilliantly lighted saloon from the gloomy streets outside it looked like fairy land, and the illusion Mas net dispelled as its presiding spirit, radiant in white canter's hair and diamonds, ad vanced te welcome the favored guest. The table with its flowers and favors was a work of art, everything being de signed, from decorations te dessert, by the hostess. On the centre lay an oval mir ror in its tank of flowers, looking like a miniature lake upon whose besom appear ed te float a huge swan with a back lead of fragrant blossoms. At each plate, besides the customary bouquets, were exquisite trifles, such as, for in stance, a crimson stiu slipper with gilded French heel and cheniellu bordered top, a bow of handsome satin ribbon en the tee and long loops and bow of the same te carry it en the arm as a satchel, and the shoe filled with gorgeous Marshel Niel rose buds. Anether was a chocolate cake wrapped in its silver paper, upon which pranced a silver goat drawing a miniature" basket of fruits. Trail ing vines suspended from the chandeliers, and pyramids of fruits and flowers completed the adornments. Mrs. Conkling looked very lovely in black velvet with trimmings of white lace and orna ments of pearls. Mrs. Hamilton Smith were a black velvet costume with black lace garniture ; ornaments, amethysts and violets. Mrs. Conkling's trophy was a shepherd's hat of srtin filled with roses, which were held in place by a silver dart. Mrs. Smith's a long Turkish pipe of crim son satin, the immense bowl being filled with buds. There were but eight in the party, including the beautiful hostess." ANOTHER MOLLIK 31AGU1RI; CAUGHT. He Is Cellared in Canada The Crime of Which lie is Accused . An associated press dispatch, announc ing the arrest, at St. Catherine's, Canada, of Jehn McGuirc, alias William Leve, re calls the darkest period of the Mellic Ma guire troubles, and one of the most cold celd cold beooded murders of that cruel time. There is geed reason for believing that the per son arrested is William Leve, a notorious desperado and Mellic Maguire, who shot Themas Gwither, a justice of the peace, en his own deer step, in Girardville, en the night of August 14, 1875. That was a wild night in the Mahaney region. The day had been pay day at a number of the collieries, and every town was full of drunken, swearing, brawling men. The Mellic Maguires were in their glory, and men were murdered en slight provocations or none at all. That night, at a moonlight picnic in a grove near Shenandoah, Tem Hurley, a Mellic leader, walked t te a stand where Gemer James, a young Welshman, was serv ing beer, shot him- dead and es caped. Hurley has never been arrested. That evening Squire Gwither had issued a warrant for the arrest of Leve, who was violent and disorderly. Leve came te Gwithcr's office and began abusing the justice for issuing the warrant. He was put out, and went home boiling with rage. About ten o'clock Gwither locked tip his office and started te go home, when he was met at the deer by Leve, who had a leaded shotgun in his hand and was uttering violent threats ; his old mother followed, trying te restrain him. Leve rushed up te Gwither and fired the gun full in his face, killing him instant ly. Then he fled, and though the murder of se prominent a man as Gwither created an unusual sensation, and unus ual efforts were made te capture the assas sin, he was never caught. His arrest new, if it is indeed "Bill" Leve, of Girardville, is undoubtedly owing te the persistent ef forts of the detectives who have never given up the chase of the fugitive Mollies. They fellow clew after clew, and though many of them prove abortive, every new and then one leads up te a murderer. Hur ley was last heard of in Texas ; but when an officer went there after him the bird had flown. There is a small reward offered for the arrest of cither Hurley or Leve.
