It bad been bruited -.beat before; and both when .Mr. $ Cleveland yras a candidate for major Md when be waa nominated rer governor, all the facta of the case whatever they were and when they were several years f reeher than they are new were known ,16 the people of Buffalo and te the man en of the Bepubllcan party In New Yerk. That the latter made thein the baele of no attack then and that the former manifested no lack or respect for Cleveland, are the best evldence that they were discredited for the purposes of campaign material. Mr. rurcell ronewed them after he had been defeated for secretary of state and denied the appointment of railroad commissioner, which he sought from Get. Cleveland. He circulated these reports at Chicago and these te whom he told the tale were net impressed with them even aa he colerod the story, lie baa since been quoted as having said that Gov. Cleveland waa a 'moral leper." The best answer te Mr. Purcell'a accu sations la this card, which he, himself, new prints : " Twe days after the appearance in the Buffalo Ettning Telegraph of the luticle headed ' A Ter rlble Talc," in oenvorsation with n representative of the New Yerk Bun I remarked that upon the then ex litlng state el facta Gov. Cleveland must be considered a moral leper. Tbe cencln sien without the premise was and has bIuoe been extensively copied. I new desire te nay that information has oemo te me from a Bonreo in whleh I plaoe implicit contidence, materially changing tbe state of faets upon whleh the remark was made. llonce, in justice te Gov. Cleveland, te myself and te all ethers whom it may oencorn.I withdraw the charaoterlzatlon and request that here after it be net attributed te ree. William Flkcell. Reah ester, Aug. 0, 1831. In the meantime the se-called scandal has been vigorously Investigated. The whole foundation for It Is discovered te be the allegation that thirteen years age Mr. Cleveland had Irregular relations with n widow, who was net a virtuous woman ; that he assumed the paternity and responsibility of a child of doubtful parentage ; and in all things behaved as a man of sense and honor, who hud yielded te an Infirmity of human nature from which, unhappily, few men of whatever station have been exempt. Out of this has 'been woven the story that Mr. uieveianu was a libertine and man of immoral character. Such a charge Is as malignantly talse as if made of Washington, Jacksen, Web ster or a hundred ethers who have steed high in the affections and confidence of their countrymen ; and it has net nearly se much of truth in It refeired te Cleve land as if alleged of a long line of illus Irieus Bepubllcan statesmen from Alex. Hamilton, who founded their party, te James A. Garfield, Us last elected presi dent, whom the Examiner admits that the New Yerk Pest had in view when It said if a virtuous standard were set up " it would, had the Democrats chosen te apply it, huva defeated one Republican candidate for the presidency by charges worse by far than Cleveland's In that they added the sin of broken vows te the Bin of incontinence." Everything new known of Garfield was kuewn when he wa3 a candiate for presi dent ; that it was net exposed by the Democrats was probably due te the same consideration which has withheld them from an investigation Inte Mr. Blaine's family history or some of Mr. Legan's personal associations. But If there is te be a campaign of this sort, we beg te serve notice en all con cerned, whether with reference te the national, state or local campaign, that the Democracy can afford te say " Lay en Macduff And d d le he who first ciles: 'Held, enough.' " The Earthquake. Everyone yesterday who felt It, was delighted with the nevel sensatleu of an earthquake, and these who did net feel It are very much grieved. It is se seldom that we are favored with earthquakes that they are a very agreeable experl ence especially when they are a3 mild as this one was. It must have been a very young earthquake, aa se many peo ple never knew that It was In town until their neighbors told them. These who were Indoors generally noticed the ehaklng of the furnlture, but out doers the trembling of the earth was net conspicuous. We de net per sonally knew that thore was an earth quake, but the icpcrter? wake it out te have been n big thing, and no doubt It was for this latitude and season, and Sunday ; when newj is Bcarce, a very small earthquake may properly be made te go a very great way. Earthquakes are supposed te be the work of ttie earth' Internal fires and volcaueea te be the vent holes of relief. If we are going te have any mere of the quakes we will need te be provided with a convenient volcano ; else there may be a commotion which will be really disa- greeable in its rude shocks. . The pig Iren manufacturers are seri ously considering the advisability of abutting down all their furnaces for a month, te exhaust the stock of iron en hand, and obtain better prices by limit ing the supply te the demand.

The natural methed te re duce a redundant supply is for these faoterlea te step that are tee short In purse or tee dlsadvantageeusly sit uated te go en. But the same end may be reached by a tempo rary steppage of nil the furnaces, though when they start up again the same trouble la likely te recur.

Nene of the electors " will be chosen by the respec tive congressional districts;" they are all voted for en a general state ticket, upon which there is no distinction of representative, senatorial or nt large electors. Tun JYicte Era says Mr. Ilendrlck9 began his part of the campaign " bv publicly uttering most mendacious false heeds about the secretary of the navy." Will our esteemed contemporary please specify just what the "mendacious falsehoods " were, when and where uttered, and we will be glnd te tiave it prove that they were " mendacious false heeds." Mr. Chandler seems te be entirely satisfied that they were most " truthful truths ;" he never attempted te answer Hendricks' convincing reaflir matlnn of his original charges and the sure proof of them. - m m Mtt.

H0MANTIU8TUHY Or HKlt MAUItlAllR, Hew the Celebrated Inventor MetllU Help- intti llnei Centtnlilp hdiI iiiilr Alnrtled Mtn Kch1IhI. Mrs. Mary Stillwell Edisen, wife of the Inventor, Themas Alva Edisuu, died sud denly at 2 n. in, Saturday, at ber late resi deuce, nt Menlo park, N.J. She was 20 years of age, and leaves ptirvivlng her tbrce children. The story of her marriage te Mr. Edisen Is a singularly strauge nud romantic ene. Wheu he first formed her ncquatutnnce he vcm nbeut 25 years of age. He had .just invented the ohemlcal tole graph by means of which could be trans mltted, he claimed, en a single wire, 3.000 words n minute. The telegraph, not withstanding this, however, became subservient te the Merse system. While working ou tbe chemical telegraph he omnleycd soveral young women te puuen the holes in tbe paper. Among them was Miss ainry Stillwell. uue uay no was standing behind her chair cxamiuiug a telegraph instrument. "Mr. jMlisou'remarked .Miss btenweii. suddenly turning around, " I can alweys tell wheu you are behicd or near me." " Hew de you acoeuut for that ?" mechanically asked Mr. Edisen, Htlll nb serbed In his work. " I don't knew, I am sure," she quletly answered ; " but I seem te fed when you are near me." "Miss Stillwell," said Mr. EdUon.turu EdUen.turu lug round new iu his turn aud looking his interlocutor in tbe fuee, " I've been think ing considerably of you of late, and if you are willing te have me I'd like te marry you." " Yeu astonish me," exclaimed Miss Stillwell. " 1-1 uover " " I knew you uever thought I would be your wooer," interrupted Mr. Edisen, " but think ever my proposal, Miss Still well, and talk It ever with your mother." Then he added in tbe satne off baud, bnsi ucss like way, as though he might be ex perimenting upon a uew mede of court ship : " ly)t me knew ns early as possible as If you conseut te marry me, aud your mother is will.ng, we eau ba married by uext Tuesday." This was the extent of Mr. Edisen's courtship. It is hardly necessary te add that tbe highly favored lady laid tbe nb rupt proposal before her mother. "Ma has ceusenlcd," she told Mr. Edisen tbe next day. " That's all right," said Sir. Edioen in reply. " We will be married a week from te day." And se it was. The two were married in a wtek and a day from the beginning of Mr. Edisen's novel nnd procipitate court ship. In connection with his marriage, howevor, a story is told quite us singular, but fully in keeping with the ene already given touching his courtship. It is said that directly following the raarriage he entered his laboratory in his wedding suit, and, hastily throwing his coat en a bench, began work. "Why, sarejy you are net going te work en your wedding night ?'' remons trated his chief assistaut. "Suppese it is'.'" he quickly auswered, setting te work with reuewed zeal ; "tbe Geld und Stock company don't eare for that. They want their instruments to morrow, and they've get te have them, marriage or no marriage ; se bere gees." The wedding trip of Mr. Edisen rauinte tbe mysteries of inventions. Ills wedded life, bowevor, is Bald te have been a siugularly happy ene. A rKKMJll V1CTU11V Tbe Town of Helnng tturrendrred bjr ihe (Jblneae Wltueut a mew.
