Local Legislation.— ln the State Sen ate yesterday Mr. Fisher read in place and presented to the Chair “ An act to author ise the Governor to appoint an additional notary public in the county of Lancaster.” The bill passed to second reading, when, Mr. Billlngfelt, of Lancaster, moved to amend by authorizing the Governor to ap point two notaries public in the countyj of Lancaster—one to reside in the city of Lan caster, and one to reside in the township of Wurwick. Adopted. Sunday School Teachers’ Conven- tion.—'Tbe second Convention of minister o superintendents, teachers and friends in terested in the Sunday School cause, ap pointed at a meeting of the Vice Presidents of the Lancaster county Sabbath School Association, will be held in Fairyille, on Thursday, and Friday, the 28th and 29th inst.

The Particulars.—Tbe following par* tlculars respecting the manner in which Naibauiel Dorwart recently made bis es cape from tbe Lebanon county Jail are taken iroin tbe Advertiser; Dorwart was coutined in our jail on a charge of being concerned in the Kreider bnrgluiy at Annville, escaped on Thursday morning tbe 31st ult. Wo Jearntbat Dorwart did not tear up hia bed clothes for a robe, but tbut he was supplied with strips of rags from the out-_ side, from which a rope was manufactured with which he scaled the wall. He wus also supplied with a small grupple, which he attached to the rope and thew over the-top of tbe wall to hold the rope so as to enable him to mouut. How he opened the door of his cell is not known. The watchman left the jail at G o’clock, in tne morning, and between that time, and twenty minutes after, when tbe Sheriff unlocked tbe cells, he is presumed to have made his escape. Horse Stolen.—A valuable borse and set of harness were stolen from the stable of Washington Wulker, Esq., in Little Brit ain township, on Friduy night last. A fine robe and blanket were also stolen from the carriage house of Vincent K. Alexander, in the same neighberhood. No clue to tbe thief has been found. Since tbe above was written we lenrn that Mr. Walker,s horse was found run ning.ln the road near Steeleville, Chester county, on Suturduy, with the harness on and hitching strap broken. It is supposed the thief did not succeed iu finding a bug gy aud hitched the liorso somewhere on the Oetoraro hills where- lie broke loose. Tbe robe of Mr, Alexander (n valuable one, made of tiger skins), and the horse blanket which belouged to Dr. K. IlugersofOxford, were not recovered. There seems to be an organized band of horse thieves operating in tbo southern purl of Lancaster county, who have been stealing homes and other property very frequency dui ing the past few mouths. Some oi the citizens of Lancaster county have recently adopted the plan of taking a wbeoi off their buggies whilst standing un used and securing itelsowhere, in order to full tbo thieves. —Oxford Press. .

The Delaware and Lancastes Rail- I&oad. —Attention is invited to the follow ing communication written by & correspon den Vpf the West Chester Republican to that on the proposed railroad from this city to the river Delaware. It will be ob served that the charter contemplates the construction of the road from a point on the Delaware river, near Point Pleasant, to Phcenlxvllle, and from thence up the valley of the French Creek to the city of Lancaster. The Republican says that the following statement of its correspondent may be ac cepted as reliable and they show that the commissioners have already made consid erable progress; it will be noticed that the friends of this important enterprise are to hold a meeting in Lancaster on the 14th inst.; the correspondent writes as follows: The Legislature of Pennsylvania, at its last session, granted a Charter incorpora ting a company by the name, style, and title of the “Delaware River and Lancaster Railroad Company,” giving the said Com pany the right to build a railroad from Point Pleasant by way ofPhcenixville, and through French Creek Valley to Lancaster city, and with tbe concurrence of the Leg islature of New Jersey, to construct a rail road bridge across the Delaware, at, or near said Point Pleasant. On the Bth of last April, the Commissioners named in the Charter, met at Phcenixville, and took such preliminary steps as were deemed necessa ry towards organizing a company. Imme diately after this meeting, books were open ed along the proposed route for th 9 purpose of obtaining subscriptions to the capital stock. Tbe subscriptions have steadily increased during the summer, and as the property holders on the route, see more clearly the importance of the road, tbe in terest they feel in tbe matter increases. It appears the commissioners have met with sufficient encouragement lo continue their efforts, and a general meeting of Com missioners has been called at tbe city of Lancaster, on tbe 14th of Jan. 1889. Besides it will form a link in a direct line by way of Hanover. Littlestown, Fred erick, Md., to Harper’s Ferry ; and thence by the rail road now made to Winchester, an . Intended to be extended through the valley oi Virginia, (or Shenandoah Valley) by the way of Harrisburg and Staunton to Salem, where it will connect with the Vir ginia and Tennessee railroads.—Tbuk mak ing the Delaware river and Lancaster rail road a link in the most direct line thut can be constructed from New York city to Knoxville, Cbatianooga or Memphis. That thiß railroad will be built in a few 'years can scarcely bo doubted. • This entire road will puss through a sec tion of couutry not to be surpassed iu natural resources in the State, ana will con sequently have a great, amount of local trade. Its great importance however, only ap pears when we contemplate it as a link, in not only one, but several routes from New York city to tbe west and south-west. First, this road will forma link in the mostdlrectlineof railroads from Now York to Pittsburg. The route to Pittsburg, can be made out by connecting with the Penn sylvania Central R. R. at Lancaster, or else by extending the Delaware River and Lan caster R. R., about twenty miles west of Lancaster, and connecting with a series of roads (someof which are already completed, some under contract, and others projec:ed,) connecting with the Pittsburg and Connels ville R. R. It will also form a link in n very direct lino, to a junction with the Wostern Mary land road, to Hagerstown, and ultimately to Cumberland, and thence lo the Ohio river at the way of the Connels ville road, umTWheeling and Parkesburg, by tbe Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Items.—Wo clip the following items of local interest Oxford Press : A small faruLof 18 acres, iu Edeu town ship, Lancastey county, with tanyard, Ac., belonging to Caroline B. Morrison and Ly dia B. Rakeatraw, was sold at public sale to Johu Bushong, lor $2,005. gj A party of Lancaster countians favorable to the construction of the proposed railroad from Peach Bottom to Nottingham Station visited the latter place on New Year’s Day to find a practicable “ getting in ” place. Mrs. Veal, of Little Britain township, bus sold her farm of eighty-six acres to Henry P. Townsend, of the same township,, fer the sum of $7,500. A. T. Lincoln has sold a lot of ground at Oak Hill to Messrs, A. A J. B. Brogan of the same place, for $l,OOO. The results ofthe recent coat of sleet upon tbe trees are most wonderful. Fruit, shade and forest trees have suffeied torribly, iu rauny instances whole peach and other or ebards are crushed to the earth, whilst very few trees of any kind escaped without being more or Jess broken. The peach trees, be ing most teuderor brittle,suffered the worst; the apple orchards are much damaged, and the shade and ornamental trees are sadly' broken--tbe willowH and maplesapparently luring tbe worst. Io the forests tull trees, from 50 to 100 leet high, were bent until their tops touched the earth and in many eases their trunks were snapped off. In some instances trees 10 to 12 inches in di umeter were thus broken. The forests are filled with limbs broken off by the immense load of ice. Travel along roads leading through the woods was impeded by the bending and broken boughs aDd fallen trunks. Several fell across the track of tbe Philud’a A Baltimore Central Railroad and delayed the trains until cut uwny. The weight of ice was so great us to break down tbe telegraph wires in places, and our Hues have not been in working order since Frit day. Almost everybody predicts a great fruit yield next season on account of the heavy sleet upon the trees during tbe first four duys of tbe new year; it being a common suyiDg that fruitful summers folly Bleety winters. The question whether winter pruning is ol'udvuntage will bo settled next season, however as very few fruit trees in this section have escaped the loss of numer ous limbs from the weight ofice.

Secretary and Treasurer—J. C. Plahler. Tbe New Dominion King. Another ring has recently been formed in this city which may be termed the New Dominion ring. Its head is John W. For ney and its tail George W. Brega, witb all sorts of kith and kin schemers, lobbyists, wire pullers and shysters intermixed and interwoven, like mosaic work, between. Their object is to press upon Congress the re establishment of the old Canadiau recipro city treaty,and for this purpose they have al ready received from England $14,000 or $15,- 000 in gold, and as Congress is now about to resume its business they ha vedemanded and are anxiously expecting fresh remittances. Thetuilof the ring understands the busi ness, as he had a long residence in Wash ington previous to the war, but alter tho breaking out of the rebellion he found it convenient to take up bis residence in Can ada. It is said that Secretary McCulloch, if he has not a hand in, knows all about the movements and objects of the ring and will throw no obstacle in the way to prevent the consummation of its purpose. Secretary Sowurd’s position i 9 not yet certain, but time will soon develop the scheme and make known its supporters.— N. Y. Herald Tlie Negro <>ntra«;es on the Ogeechee Savannah, Dec. 30, 1868.—Tbe Sheriffof 'fcba county and two constables on Tuesday went to Hayward’s plantation, on the Ogee chee river, eleven miles from the city, to arrest seventeen negroes charged with shoot ing watchmen on the plantations and car rying off the crops of plunters. They made live urrests. At Station No.J on the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad they were surrounded Dy. übout one hundred' armed negroes, who rescued tbe prisoners and disarmed and robted the Sheriff, and destroyed the war rants, and threatened to kill him if he ever served a legal process’agaln in that vicinity. Tbe negroes then separated into squads, and marched back to the plantations, avowing tbut they would have tbe heart’s blood of every white man on the Ogeechee river, saying the war has commenced. One negro watchman is supposed to be murdered Two white men were badly hurt, and all the white men were obliged to flee the city to save theirltves. The women and children are in the hands of the mob and have been carried off into tbe woods. Great excitement exists in this commu nity, and a sheriff’s posse of between 300 aud 400 citizens will leave at daybreak to morrow to rescue the women and children. The military decline to interfere until the power of the civil authorities for preserving order is exhausted The Bill Homicide. Yesterday morniag, Camilla E. Twitchell was brought to court in the ordinary prison van, which was loaded with prisoners of all colors aud sizes, the occasion being the fix ing of a day for the beginning of her trial. She was closely veiled, and dressed in deep mourning, but she appeared to coverse willingly witb her counsel and friends. General Collis read a petition to the Coart asking a speedy trial of the accused and proies’ing her entire innocence of the mur der ot her mother, Mrs. Hill. The Court thought Monday a week, the 18th inat., would be a proper time for the trial to commence and that both sides would be expected to be ready by that time. With this understanding the prisoner left the Coart, leaning upon the arm of her uncle, tbe brother of Mrs. Hill. It appeare that many persons did not know this proceeding was to take place, for there was no crowd about or in the Court House. For the Lancaster Intelligencer. Gen. G. W. Oni of Allcgcoy County for Governor. Mb. Smith :—Will you allow me to ob trude oo yon for the purpose of bringing be fore yonr readers the name of a distinguish ed gentleman who is much talked of as a candidate for Governor. I know Gen. George W. Cass well, and can say of him that a better selection could not be made. I am confident if the Democracy nominate him, that he will be elected in triumph* The people will require a man of his solid abilities. Where he is best known, be is most popular. The Western counties are speaking oat for him, and there is mneb force in tbe selection of him at this partic ular time. ,From indications over the State, I believe their choice will fall on the General to lead us to victory in the next campaign. It is high time for us to name a candidate who can unite not only the strength of the Democracy, but one who can draw strength from the opposition. Tbe General is well-known as the talented President of the first railroad in the coun try, a high toned, honorable gentleman, incapable of doing a wrong, and tbe firm, consistent and devoted friend of Democratic men and measures. If placed in the Ex ecutive Chair, he would do honor to the State. He is fearless and determined in all transactions, and a man of great business capacity, which pre-eminently qualifies him for the duties of Governor. Gen. Cass is a of the Military Academy, of tbe class of 1832, was promo ted in the Seventh Infantry, served on topo graphical duty and inthecorps of engineers and remained on duty from ’32 to’3B, when he resigned, and commenced civil life as engineer, and merchant in Brownsville He was chosen President of Adams’ Ex press Company, was then made President ofthe Ohio A Pittsburg Railroad, and after wards ot tbe Pittsburg, Fort Wayno A Chicago Railway, which his ability has made the best paying road in the country. He wus also a member of tbe Board of Visitors to the Academy in which he graduated fourth in his class, first in Mathematics, Philoso phy, Engineering and other principal studies. Such is but a very brief outline in the history of this excellent gentleman whom the people are desirous to elevate to the chair of the State. The character of Gen. Cass is blameless in every relation of life, he is agood[christian, u member of the Episco pal Church. He never spoke or acted but in a manner worthy of praise; kind in heart,firm in mind and strong in intellect, heisstrong with the people. The masses out west are clumerous lor his nomination, knowing well that he could unite more votes than auy other man in the Slate. Allegheny county, the home of Mr. Cass, the strong hold ofthe Republicans, where Gen. Gran 1 obtained eleven thousand |majority, could be brought down to three|thousand with Cass as a candidate, Such'ia his[popularif p with business men in that section of the oountry. It., is clear by both the interest and the duty of tbe Nominating Conven tion to present his name, and their choice will be ratified in October by the will of the voters. The East should respond.to the West in their choice. In fact the honor is due to them, more especially when[one of the beat of men is put forth as an unanimous choice of the Western counties. .Pennsylvania ex pects every voter.from the Deleware to the waters ofthe Ohio, to do his duty in redeem ing the Slate from out of the hands of pecu lators, who are for spoils und not for the people. Democrats must unito and stand firm. The good of society, the welfare aud happiness of all classes require the tri umph of sound principles of government. It is cheering to find the Democracy stand ing firmly by the faith of the fathers who made us a nution. The gainsjmade in the late contest cleurly show what can be done. We have elected Governors iu New York, New Jersey, Connecticut,'California, Dela ware, Maryland and Kentucky, und we can and will elect one in Pennsylvania, if the Democratic party is true to itself and places before the yeomanry, a man who can properly fill tbo Executive Chair. We have secured iu Congress enough to pre vent the Radicals from the use of the two thirds majority, so much abused of late to override the power of the President. We are for the old flag, the old Constitution, and the good old times of Jackson, which will be secured in this State by the elevu tion of General Cass for Governor. Chester. After.tießry, Fitzgerald, of the Philadelphia Cily Item is again after Governor Geaiy with a sharp stick. In the last issue of his paper he criticises with much severity the preten sions of "bis excellency” to a renomination and says: With a standard beurer so ignorant and pompous and corrupt, we shall fail signal ly, and this will be construed into a dis trust, or disapproval, of tbe policy of Geu. Grant. Now, who will take the responsi bility of arraying the great State of Penn sylvania in opposition to the administration on important questions that may arise dur ing Gen. Grant’s term^ Doubtless the view of the demoralized condition of the Republicans— a demoralization certain to ensue upon the renomination of Geary—will put forward their best man—Judge Packer, perhaps—a sagacious, resolute, common-sense Penn sylvanian, whose popularity will carry Philadelphia county by a majority of at least ten thousand. Wire Harder nod Salcido in Cincinnati- A horrible murder and suicide took place in Cincinnati on Wednesday morning at abouttwoo’clock. WilliamAshbackkilled his wife Josephine by inflicting blows upon her head with a batebet and stabbing her ODce in tbe left side with a butcher knife. He then shot himself through the head with an Enfield rifle, the ball entering the left lower jaw, and tearing away tho right back part of his head and scattering his brains over tbe room. The deed was done in an upper room of'their residence, and both parties were partially undressed. The husband had for months threatened to take bis wife's life. It was a second marriage for both and they had been murried tor four years. Their ages were sixty-five aqd filty-seven respectively. He was a basket maker, and she kept a confectionery on the first floor of their residence at 570 Central avenue. None bnt the victims were in the house at the time of tho tragedy. Officers heard the women’s cries and the report of the gun and broke into the house. They were both found dead. They had evidently retiied to different rooms. She was jealous of his visits to a woman, keeper of a saloon near, and he doubly jealous of her on all occasions. They also quurrelled about their property, each owning some real estate, and she making more money by her store thßn be by his trade. They had temporarily separated a couple of times since their marriuge. She was on the eve of applying for a divorce. He leaves six children by his first marriage. Dreadful Explosion off Sandy Book— Loss of Life. A disastrous explosiou occurred on Sun day at about noon, at the wreck of the steamer Scotland, which lies off Sandy Hook. Some time since the Neptune Steamship Company made u contract with the Government to remove the wreck of the Scotland, which has become an impe diment to navigation, and in compliance with their contract have been at work at tbe wreck for several weeks past, when ever the weather would permit. Their mode of operating was with gunpowder, by means of which they proposed bv de grees to blow the wreck to pieces. There were about twenty meu employed in this service, under command of Cupt. VV. L. Churchill, late of the navy, together with the Company’s steamer Commodore Trux tou. On the day of theaccident two charges of powder were taken on board a smuli boat at Sandy Hook; and the latter towed out to the wreck. Another small boat was lowered, containing an air pump, diving apparatus, two divers and five seamen. The boat containing the two charges of powder (175 pounds in all) was manned by Captain Churchill and three men. a diver descended, and signaled for tbe first charge to be lowered, and soon after came up and reported everything ready. The lowered charge and that re maiuing in tbe boat were connected by wires several hundred feet in length. At the signal "all right” from tbe diver, both boats pulled away, but hud scarcely made half the usual distance when the sub merged charge exploded, and an instant later, the charge on the boat containing Capt. Churchill and three men, causing the instant death of tbe following: Captain,. Wm. L. Churchill; Diver, Louis Jurglns; Seamen, Geo. Moore and James O’Shay. Mr. Geo. W. Beardslee, the electrician in the employer the Company, was not pres ent. "Itis supposed that the charge in the boat was exploded by the force of the con cussion, but tbe cause of tbr explosion of tbe submerged charge is as yet a mystery. Beside those killed several men in the divers’ boat were severely injured, and were conveyed to the hospital by order of the officers of tbe Company. Runaway. —Two horses driven by Me. Good, of Conestoga Centre, this county, ran off this morning up South Queen street. Mr Good in endeavoring to bold them bad two fingers of bis right hand pretty badly hurt The horses after proceeding a short distance were stopped by their running on the pavement. The horses were not hurt, nor was the vehicle injured. Tbe Surratt Cue, The WAshiEgtoacorrespondent of the Baltimore Qaz&te says: : After strenuous eflortsupon the part of the Government to seen re another indict ment against John H. Surratt, the project seems to be abandoned as hopeless. A number of the old witnesses have been brought before the Grand Jury, but they refnaed to repeat tbe testimony given by them upon the former trial. Bnsan Ann Jackson, colored, who swore that Snrratt was in this city on the night of the assas sination and that she served him with sap per at his mother's residence, on being, bronght before the Grand Jury a few days since, denied any and all knowledge of Surratt’s whereabouts on that evening. The District Attorney is said to haye been taken greatly by surprise at the condnct of bis witnesses, none of whom are willing to stand np to the testimony given at the last trial. Thus will tbe trial end in a misera ble failure. It is reported that Snrratt has in course of preparation for the press a com plete history of his wanderings during his efforts to avoid the Government detectives and escape arrest, and that he will divulge everything he knows bearing In any way npon the parties concerned in tbe assassina tion of President Lincoln.

SINE HUNDRED ASB SIXTX HUES. Of the line West from Omaha are now com pleted, and tbe work Is going on through the Winter. As the distance between the finished portion ot the Union and Central Pacldo Rail foods Is now less thnn 400 miles, and both com panies are poshing forward the work with great energy, employing over 80,COO men, there can be no donbt that the whole GRAND LINE TO THE PACIFIC Will, be open Tor Business In tbo Sam* mer of 1809, The regular Government Commissioners have prononneed the Union Pacific Railroad to be FIRST CLASS In every respect, and the Special Commission appointed by the Presi dent says: “Taken as a whole, THE UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD HAS BEEN WELL CONSTRUCT ED, AND THE GENERAL ROUTE FOR THE LINE EXCEEDINGLY WELL BELECTED. The energy and perseverance with which the work has been urged forward, and the rapidi ty with which It has been executed are with out parallel in history, and In grandeur and magnitude of undertaking it has never been equalled,” The Report states that any defi ciencies that exLt are only tv se incident to all new roads, and that could not have been avoided without materially retardiogtoe pro gres of the great work. Such deficiencies are supplied by all railroad tompanles after the completion of the line, when and wherever experience shows them to be necessary. The report concludes by saying that “ the country has reason to congratulate itself that the great work of natlondllmportanco is so rapiuly ap proaching completion under such favorable auspices.”. The company now have in use 137 locomotives and nearly 2,000 cars of all de scriptions. A large additional equipment Is ordered to be ready in the Spring. The grad ing nearly completed, and ties distributed for 120 miles In advance of the western end of the track. Fully 120 miles of Iron for new track are now delivered west of the Missouri River, and 90 miles more are en route. The total ex penditures for construction purposes in ad vance of the completed portion of the road is not less than eight million dollars. Besides a donation from the Government of 12,800 acres of land per mile, the Company is entitled to a subsidy In U. 9. Bonds on Us line as completed and accepted, at the average rate of about $.0,000 per mile, according to the dffl culties encountered, for which the Govern ment lakes a second lien as security. The Company have already received $22,158,0-0 of this subsidy, of whlca $1,280,000 was paid Dec. 6th. and $650,000 Dec. Htb. Government Aid-Security of the Bonds. By its charter, the Company is permitted to issue its own FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS to the same amount as the Government Bonds, and no more. These Bonds are a First Mort gage upon the whole road and all its equip ments. Such a mortgage npon what, for a long time, will be ihe only railroad connecting the Atlantic and PaclflcSlate6, takes the highest rank as a safe security. The earnings from the way or local business jor the year ending June 30,1865, on an average of 472 miles, were over FOUR MILLION DOLLARS, which, after pay ing all expenses, were much more than suffi cient to cover all interest liability upon tnat distance, and the earnings for the last ttve months have been $2,386,870. They would have been greater, 1/lhe road had not been taxed to Its utmost capacity to transport its own mater ials for construction. The income from the great passenger travel, the China freights, and the supplies for the new Rocky Mountain States and Territories must bs ample for all interest aud other liabilities. No political aG- Uou can reduce the rate of Interest. It mnst remain for thirty years— six per cent, per annum in geld, now equal to between eight and nine per cent, in currency. The principal is then payable in gold. If a bond with such guaran tees were Issued by the Government, its mar ket price would not be less than from 20 to 25 percent, premium. As the bonds are Issued under Governmentauthority andsupervlsiori upon what is very largely a Government work tbey must,ultimately approach Government prices. No other corporate bonds are made so secure. $751,120 99 The price for the present is PAR, and accrued interest at 6 per cent, from July 1, ls6S, in cur rency.
