WKDNKBPtY HVKNIMQ, JULY 3, IB34.
A Verjr Small Affair.
The Philadelphia Press und IVincs
have been for some tlrae debating aimI
aisevcrating concerning llielr rescc
tive circulations, and have finully readied
the belting point, llie customary end of
these newspaper disputations, though
the figures in this case make the issue
mere Mian usually Interesting. Tlie
Press preKsed a contribution of
h thousand dollars te charity by the
losing party ; whoruupen the 'JHmta saw
the $1,000 and went $9,000 better, in
poker parlance. We supiwtu that figure
will satisfy the Press charltable dlsto dlste dlsto
Bltien, and that it will net undertake te
raise it any higher.
Ten thousand dollars is a very respect
able wager, and Indicates that one party
or the ether In this dlspute has been
either very Ignorant of the condition of
its opponent or very braggart of its own.
But what a reflection it is that two
leading Journals In one of the greatest
cities In the country find themselves
bound te a wager te settle a dispute, be.
tween them, the facts upon each side of
which are known te one or the ether,
and which should be scttkd by their
simple statement.
The one journal asserts that its circtt
latien exceeds that of the ether by at
least 20,000 ; the ether asserts that it
does net equal it. Supposing that the
conductors of these journals are men of
honor, we can only conceive the ikjss!
blllty of bucIi difference of statement by
assuming that there is no honor in the
newspaper business, au.1 that every edi
tor and publisher feels himself at liberty
te say what he pleases in main of his
own paper, regardless of the truth, and
anything derogatory te his rival, with
equal disregard of the facts. It must
be that there is such license claimed by
editors, else the Press and the Tune
would find their dispute settled by their
statements. It ought te be the fact ihat
a newspaper editor who undertakes
te be a teacher and a critic,
should be something a little better than
a common liar. We believe, however,
that the tendency of the uewspaper
business is quite otherwise. It seems
te strongly cultivate the natural dispo
sition te falsehood, se that it has come
te pass that no eut: believes anything he
sees published, simply because it is pub
lUbed, and no oue is surprised te And
te-morrow the falsity of what he has
read te-day. In the eagerness, of the
daily press te publish news it disregards
Us truth ; and it is net surprising that
journals which fatten en falsehood
should Hud themselves compelled te
sustain their word by $1,000 or $10,000
forfeits. Hut, nevertheless, it is a sad
and terrible commentary en the virtue
aud strength of the fourth estate.
m m
A Magnet That Dues Met (Iran.
The Republicans talk of lvalue's
strength in this state as though it was
something extraordinary. They will be
deceived. While he has some most en
thuslastic and ardent supporters in his
own party, and their devotion te his Air
tunes in Pennsylvania in mere unreason
ingand reckless than in any ether p.irt of
the country, it is net at all manifest that
Mr. Maine will get any mere votes in
this state than any ether Republican
would have get.
All ever the state he is most cordially
hated by the Stalwart element, who have
always opposed him and whom he al
ready shows a disposition te chastise and
override at every turn. Frem them he
may expect the cold steel.
In the eastern and mere conservative
portion of the state them is no sign
of Democratic defection te ltlaiue.
Net a man is reported te have
geno ever te the enemy's camp ;
whlle it la very well known that in Phil
adelphia, in its business circles and
among the conservative class, of which
the Ledger la an exponent, Mr. ltlaiue 1 i
distrusted, his candidacy is disapproved
and his election will be ati'agonled by a
powerful element which has hitherto
been a very useful ally of the Republican
party.
It i3 in Western Pennsylvania, how
ever, where ltlalne was bein aud has ex ex
teusive associations aud connections,
which he has constantly cultivated, that
it Is expected he will have special
strength. As yet there aie no develop
luentH te justify this holier ; and new,
nearly four weeks after hid nomination
the situation out there is thus disclosed
in an extract from a private letter
te n gentleman in this city, from a poli
tician of wide experience and large ac
quaiutance in Western Pennsylvania.
" I knew Ulaine well ; slept with him
many a night ; knew his father and
mother. As beya he shouted for Clay,
I for l'elk ; and se we have steed politi
cally from that day te this. Personally I
like him very much and always did. It
has been claimed that ltlaiue will en
creach upon the Democratic vote in this
county en account of his nativity being
In this locality ; but be will nuU A
number of leading Republicans are op
posed te him, and I knew of no
Democrat for him."
Mkk may come and men may go, but
me mie surplus In the state treasury
keei en forever. The monthly report
of the treasurer shows that he has a
round balance en hand in the guueial
fund of fourteen hundred thousand dol del dol
lars.ef which that lucky llttle bank in
Unlontewn has $lM,O00,and the Peo Pee Peo
pe's bank or Philadelphia lias $180,000.
Wehaveall along been under the Im
pression that there was a law of this
commonwealth which forbids the accu
mulation of ever halt a million in this
fund, and requires that when it exceeds
that amount the Burplus is te go Inte
the sinking fund ; wohave uever heard or
any repeal of this law. Rut as the treas
urer regularly reports that his favorite
banks have a million or se that belongs te
ineBinKing iuuu ami noeouy calls en him
te pay it ever, he probably fancies that
uobedy cares. Meney is net wertli much
nowadays, but no doubt the Unlontewn
and the Peeples, and the ether banks
can ilnd use for and profit In a hundred
thousand or two of the public funds,
which they get for nothing aud lean out
at Interest.
Anummsk of estimable young gentle
man connected with the Yeung Men's
Domecrntlo association, of Philadelphia
mere given te theoretical than practl
cal politics are anxious te commit that
organisatien te a declaration in favor of
"a tariff for revenue only." Ata fuller
meeting of the association last evening,
than is usual, their preposition was de
feated by the prevalence of a motion te
adjourn, which was carried by the vote
of ,"! te 31. It Is new given out that
after the bulk of these who uie opposed
te the proe.sed declaiatieu shall have
left the city this week for the Chicago
convention, a special meeting of the as
sociation will be catted and advantage
taken of their departure, te give utter
ance te the doctrine of the minority as
the expression of the association, aud
disseminate tt abroad in due season te
meet the attention of the delegates
in the national convention. It is
needless te say that respectable and
worthy men would have no let
nor part in such a trick as this. While
the friends of the Watteisen doctrine in
the association have a perfect right te
held aud declare it, they have no right
te resort te any such device as that pre
Mjsed te misrepresent the actual senti
ment of the association ; and we shall
be very much disapelnted te hear that
these whose names are associated with
it have had any part in this kind of
" practical lnilitics " of the baser sort.
A .n(i many Democratic journals,
friendly te the candidacy of (Sew Cleve
land, are relieving their minds by abuse
of Jehn Kelly, who is net friendly te the
governor's nomination. It is quite the
fashion of Democratic editors te abuse
Jehn Kelly, lie is always doing some
thing te distress them, becuus'he has
a habit of doing things te plo.iie himself
and his adherents. These who abuse him
for this, nevertheless, are quite as fend
as he is of having their own w.iy. They
seem te forget that he has the same
privilege of selecting a candidate that
they have, and if he prefers Ilayard te
Cleveland, no one can count it against
him, though they may dispute
the goodness of his judgment.
Owing te the strange prejudice against
Kelly and Tammauy Hall, its opposition
te Cleveland is likely te help mere than
it will hurt him. After the nomination
is made, Kelly and his braves will be
found 1 ijally Mipertiiig the ticket,
though Cleveland be at its head. Tins
there is no manner of reason te doubt
Tammany Hall has always been loyal
te the national Democratic ticket, aud
if its fees had Wen as true te Hancock
as it was, he would have carried New New
Yerk aud been elected ; which is the
simple truth of his say.

William II. Stanten has been elected dis
trict attorney, member of Assembly, state
penaler, congressman ami judge in Lacka
wanna county within the past ten eats.
He w ,5 elected judge of IjUrortie county
during the tidal wave of labor leferin hiIi
tics in 1877, and in the trial of an import
ant lawsuit, iu which he snubbed ii.uuel
Dougherty, of Philadelphia, and ether
eminent eeuusel, be meused such bit

that the Assembly was iu the hands el

no fair play be resigned from the bench A
short tune age he lomeved, with bis wife
and their four children, te the West aud
located temporarily in Kansas City. Leav
ing them there temporarily he relumed te
Ser.iuteii for the puro.ie of running for
Judge this fall, but a few days age he wns
stirtle.l by a telegram staling that his
wife had deserted the children and gene
uobedy knew whither. Hastening te the
scene he fetiud that she had sold eveiy
thing in the way of household goods aud
taken the money with her. Judge Man
ten wrote a pitiful letter te a Soriuteti
friend, in which he states that he is pen
niless ami asks his friends te assist him
with blitheieut money te employ detec
tives te tearch for his wife. In his letter
he sajs :
Kverj thing is eveu worse than 1 im
agined. My piHir, darling wife was totally
iusaue dutiug the last few weeks as the
result et sickness, and she has dinappeared
out of sight, as il the ground or the sea
had swallow ed her. She lest a large sum
of uiouey that 1 left with her, anil it helped
te make her mentally niore excited. Then
she get the wild notion that she nmet get
out of the way of some imagiuary danger,
aud she gave away horses, furniture,
everything te goon tins journey, aud yet
no oue has seen her go. I will have a ter
rible time te ilutl her. She has left me by
her insane bebavnr without the means for
the work of maklug a search. If I don't
roseuo her promptly I fear, in her present
state of mind, she will be lest or de some
thing desperate. Iu a letter which she
left behind she said : " Geed bye forever,
darling, and may Ged bless you. Take
geed care of my peer babies. ( ! my
darling, my brain is mad and my heart is
broken. Kiss my babies every night.
Your heart broken girl wife, Ann."
The disappearance of Mr. Stanten is the
mere startling siuce she was alwajs re
garded as a niixlel wife and her home life
wa.s considered happy. An ellert is ou

Marriett Rresius says it is a base and
malignant calumny te say that many
L'u ou soldiers sought capture te escape
the perils of the field. All the sarne the
operatieu was performed . Parelo camps
were filled with men who were captured,
and who weut te the rear into said camps
te wait for oxchange. The subject was
often rehearsed around the camp lire, and
the return of geed seldieis from the parole
camps with the stories of the great num.
ber of comrades who were prisoners en
parole, and who allowed themselves te be
captured te kceji out or peril, is well
remembered.
We claim te knew as much about the
service as either Majer Greist or Marriett
IiresiiiH, aud have as much love for the
soldier, but we de net believe in thosehoiuo
or pensioning all prisoners of war, and
allowing thorn 43.00 per day for overy day
they wero prisoners. We did net say that
all pneoners were willing ones, but we did
siy, and will continue te say, that " many
were taken prlsoiieis, because it was safer
there than in the fluid, espoeially during
the lime of battle. The great majority,

Sum iNe, Scotland. June 17, IHSI. We
icm.ilucd iu Dublin ever Sunday. It Is u
veiy geed oily, and the oentiti of fashion
and trade of Ireland. It has a number nl
public buildings, among them the custom
house, Tnnity college, the old Parliament
houe,uew Iho bank of Ireland. Among
Its chinches are St. Pattiek's c.ithedial
and Chtist's chinch, both Protestant. We
visited l'ltieiiK park, and were shown the
spot where Loul l aveudlsh nud Societal)'
lliirke weie assassinated. It is In lull view
el the lord lieutenant's house. It is a very
large patk ; thete meat least two hundred
deer re.viulug iu It.
A line granite iiieiiiiiiieut te the Duke
of Wellington stands iu this park, nud at
the main entrance is n colers.il statue,
ou horseback, or General Gough, a soldlei
el the Peninsular war, it is east fiem
brass cannon, captured by the troops
nutlet him. I see that Ireland honors ber
great aud dutiugiushed men. Iu the
cemetery is a maguillcciit monument te
Daniel O'Cennell , immediately under test
his remains. We wero shown bis celli ti,
which is contained iu an elegant sarcepha
gus. A meutitueut te Nelsen, statues of
GrattJii, Rtirke, O'Cennell, Sir Jehn
Grey, 1'em Mtete, te Oliver Goldsmith,
and ethers, stand iu dill'erent parts or the
city.
There ate quite a number el railroads
ceuteilng iu Dublin; they have street c.us,
.tramways they call them hole.) There
is a railroad running down thu coast te
Rr-ay, Kingsten and ether suburban towns,
all or which aie Vt II pitrotiized.
The hotels are pretentious, but nuti
qualcd ; iu fact, as far as we have seen,
they don't knew " bow le keep hotel "
in this country ; and theso who have
traveled in America rreely admit it. There
is fortune iu store rer enterprising
Americans, who will ceme ever here and
start hotels ou the American plan.

We left Dublin yesterday morning by
way or Itclfest ter Scotland. As we begin
te approach the north or Ireland a great
change is noticed in the people aud iu the
nppearanee or the country. The dinners
are mere thrifty aud the country preients
adillereut apiHurauoe ; better agriculture,
mere manufactures aud a far better stale
of athurs prevail than iu the southern or or
Hen. Belfast Is a large and lletirishing city.
We only remained ever a row hours en our
way te Glasgow. We were te leturn te
Reir.ist te attend the sitting or the coun

We left Rellast List evening in the
steamer which leaves at t, arriving in
Glasgow at 1 this a. m. We left the
steamer at Greuech, coming from there by
tram, distance about 30 miles, passing
through Paisley. Reth it and Greuech are
thriving manufacturing towns. The
country leeks very pretty all along the
Clyde. The business houses and maim
factoring establishments are very large
aud substantial , the whole face or the
country is rolling, the fields ue.it and
clean, with nicely trimmed hedges
aud beautiful country residences.
We only remained in Glisgew for
breakfast, passing ou te the lake district
iu the Highlands, which we strike at
Italleiib, ou Lech Lemond, where we take
the steamer "ljueen" te liiversuaid, near
the head of the lake. There we take a
coach, drawn by lour elegant horses, up
aud around the side of the mountain four

It appears that for seme time he has been
iu bad health, aud in a lit of despondency,
blew out bis brains with a rovelvor. Mr.
Sharp was a uative of this county ; was
raised in Celeraiu township, whero he
lived uutil Heme twenty flve years age,
when he weut te Kaunas. Taking a front
rauk in that state he seen rose te distinc
tion, and was a prominent member e( the
Legislature, the Democratic candidate rer
govorner and has been a delegate te the
last threo Democratic national conven
tions ; at the last he was a very aotive
friend or Gen. Hancock.
He was a firm friend of Huntington, the
great railroad man of the West, and two
years age was in Washington with him,
helping te lobby notne 'mpertant bil!n
through Congress, aud while tbore paid a
visit (the llrst siuce he left) te his friends
in this county.
He was seme fi.1 years old and very
much rcsemblcd Henry Clay Dean in his

He was a promiuent momber of the Odd

At the time of his death he was filling
