IN the debate that took place on the deputy marshal bill, at Washing ton, on last Friday, Sunset Cox made it exceedingly lively for Robeson, Hawley, Kelly, Keiffer and the stal wart advocates of "a strong govern ment" generally. GARFIELD AND ARTHUR! The one besmirched by connection with the infamous Credit Mohilier swiudlc and the De Golyer paving contract; the other disgraced by official corrup tion in the New York custom house. Fit representatives, indeed, of the party of "great moral ideas." IT is reported that the nomination for Vice President was tendered to Gen. James A. Beaver at Chicago, and that he declined the honor be cause he preferred to await the next Republican nomination for Governor of Pennsylvania. We think the Gen eral made a great mistake. "A bird in the hand is worth two iu the hush" and "doubtful things are very uncer tain." SOME foolish person telegraphs the Philadelphia Times from New York that a quiet effort is being made in that city to start a Grant boom for Cincinnati. The idea of making Gen. Grant the Democratic nominee at Cincinnati is so exceedinly Quixotic, that it can do no greater harm thau cause a smile to brighten the face of every person who reads the anncAince nient that such a moveineut is on foot. OUR esteemed contemporary, the Bellefonte Republican, quotes the New York Tribune as saying that Demo crats "seem to forget that all their am munition has been condemned as worthless," for the reason that "Gen eral Garfield's record as a statesman lias been built up almost entirely since these old autl feeble scandals were first published." Among these "old and feeble scandals," stands the wretched Credit Mobilier affair, and James A. (iarfield was one of the members of Congress who yielded to the seductive influences of Oakes Ames, took stock in the concern and then lied about it afterwards. After the investigation by a Congressional com mittee, the New York Tribune pub lisher! an opinion of this particular "old and feeble scandal" that reads very different from that which it pre tends to believe now. In its issue of February 19, 1873, it sums up the re sults of the investigation, and pays its respects to this same James A Garfjeld, who is now the Republican candidate for President, as follows: "Let ur gather up the ends front all this anarl of testimony and see, if pos sible, just where we stand. Read the evidence. With varying degrees of guilt or guilty knowledge, every man of of ihetn, with one exception (Mr. Blaine), has been obliged to confess that at some time he had held this stock, and at some time—under stress of conscience, let us hope, though that is not fully proven—got rid of it. Now let us go slowly over the list. James A. Garfield, of Ohio, had ten shares ; he never paid a dollar; received $329, which, after the investigation began, he was anxious to have considered as a loan from Oakes Ames to himself. • * * These men betrayed the trust of the people, deceived their constit uents, and by their evasions and false hoods confessed the transactions to be disgraceful. Pass no resolution. Drop it where it is. Remand the business to the people." Tho Garfield Scandals. On the morning afte* James A. Garfield was nominated for President, by the Republican National Conven tion, at Chicago, an article appeared iu the New York Sun which has at tracted wide-spread attention. The connection of Garfield's name with tho Credit Mohilier and DeGolyer scan dals had not been forgotten, though it is altogether probable that the majori ty of the delegates of the convention uever thought of his unsavory and vulnerable these particulars when they placed him in nomination, or they would never have jumped so readily to his support when the de cisive moment came upon them. The following is the article to which we refer: "Gen. James A. Garfield, of Ohio, was nominated for president by the conven tion at Chicago on the thirty-sixth bal lot yesterday. In making the nomina tion the supporters of Mr. liluine took the lead, and tho other anti-Grant ele ments in this convention promptly fol lowed. The imperialist phalanx re mained unbroken, and stubbornly cast three hundred and six votes for Grant down to the very end. In considering this nomination, we desire first of all to thank God for the defeat of Grant and the decisive over throw of the third term conspiracy. It is an event over which the American peopl® in a body may well ofl'er up re joicings to heaven ; and the friends of liberty and of the rights of man in all nations under the sun, should join witli them in the manifestations of their heartfelt gratitude. But is General Garfield such a man that patriotic citizens of the United States can well and wisely support him for President? Can the executive au thority of the republic bo safely en trusted to him ? These are the questions which every voter should now ask ; and we answer calmly and emphatically tbnt he is not such a mai. The character of General Garfield can be judged by the following conspicuous facta : When, in 1873, the Credit-Mobilier bribery and corruption among members of Congress were first exposed, General Garfield was one among those accused, lie immediately published a letter ex pressly and positively denying that he iiad any share in it. Next, on January 14, 1873, he appeared before the com mittee of the House of Hepresentatives, and under oath declared : "I never owned, received, or agreed to receive any stock of the Credit Mobilier, or of the Union Pacific railroad, nor any dividend or profits arising from either of them.'' But on January 23 next following, tho Hon. Oakes Ames was examined before the same committee, and proved by secondary evidence, partly in Gen. Garfield's own handwriting, thatOener al Garfield had had stock in the Credit Mobilier, and that he had received divi dends thereupon. Mr. Ames also testi fied that Gen. Garfield had visited him subsequent to the commencement of the investigation by the House, and had endeavored to induce hun to swear be fore the committee that money thus paid him as dividends had been deliv ered to him as a loan ; and yet at the •very same time that he had endeavored to procure this talse testimony from Mr. Ames, Gen. Garfield had called upon Ames to pay him an additional sum of money on account of the Credit Mobi lier, claiming that the dividends he had ! already received had not been as large as they should have been. A perjurer and a man who attempts to suborn perjury is not fit to be Presi dent. One other important feature in the history of General Garfiehi is his rela tion to the Do Golyer paving contract. : One I)e Golyer had made a contract ; with the Hhephard ring in Washington i to put down a quantity of patent pave ment. General Garfield was chairman j of the committee on appropriations in j the House of Iteprcseutatives. In order j to pay for this patent pavement an ap | propriation was needed from Congress. | The sum of five thousand dollars was ! paid to General Garfield on behalf of j He Golyer, and appropriations to the amount of millions of dollars were there after granted to the Washington ring, the appropriation for the I>e Golyer pavement being included therein. These are some of the facts in the | public record of James A. Garfield, now the Republican candidate for President of the United States. And yet, notwithstanding all this, the mischiefs of electing such a man presi dent would all seem blessings compared to the results which would have follow ■ ed the success of Grant and the third term. To the grave charges here made against their candidate the Republi can leaders have little to say. Rut the attempt to ignore them wilt not work. Mr. Garfield is called upon for an explanation, hut how will he make it? The record against him is conclusive and cannot lie changed. The truth, unpleasant as it may be, must stand. The independent press of the country, however, is disposed to give him a chance, as the following extract, taken from an editorial that recently appeared in the New York Herald, will show: "Such a charge, if unfounded, should be act at rest at once. It ia a species of accusation which the Republican party haa never before been called to meet in connection with any of ita candidates for the Presidency. General Fremont, ita first candidate, has since been in volved in some doubtful transactions, which came under the cog nuance of French courts of justice, but in IM.VI his pecuniary reputation was too pure to be assailed. Mr. Lincoln, the Re publican candidate in the next two elections, was above reproach or auspi cion, untl Ihe samo may bo said of (Jen. Grant, its candidate in the two following elections, and most emphatically of Mr. Hayes, its candidato four years ago. For the first time in its history the Republican party lit* nominated a Presidential candidate against whom charges are made which, if true, should be a liar to his election. It will not do to evade these grave charges by vaiige declamation against a campaign of calumny. No former can didate* of any party has ever been accused of breaches of pecuniary trust in ollicial relations. This is not an ac omution to bo ignored, but to be refut ed. It is idle to depreciate a campaign of calumny until it is shown by proper evidence that the charges are destitute of reasonable foundation. It they are true they are fatal. We do not profess to know whether they arc true or false. Hut if they are ficticious and malicious their falsity can be demonstrated, and when they shall have been refuted it will be time to cry out against a cam paign of calumny. When these grave ciiarges shall have been proved on good evidence to bo false their subsequent repetition will be wanton calumny. Hut it will not do to shirk investigation and shun inquiry on the pretence that all candidates are assailed. No previous eindidatefor the Presidency has ever been assailed on similar grounds. If Mr. Garfield is innocent, he, above all other men, is most interested in having the exact truth known. Our recent observation of the recent course of the tS'ua does not justify any suspicion that our energetic contemporary would make charges which it does not believe there is good evidence to support. In the particular case of Mr. Garfield the charges are not trumped up for the occasion. The Sun has been repeating them, year in and year out, for a long period when Mr. Garfield was of no consequence to the country at large and was responsible only to bis immediate constituents in his Congressional dis trict, whose vote for him is said to have fallen off about nine thousnnd after the i Congressional investigation of the I Credit Mobilier job." Schuyler Colfax und James A. Garfield. | Kr<>m tli* N York Hun, June* 12. In the summer of 1872, when Ihe.S'un first mode public the testimony of Col. j Henry S. McComb in the Credit Mobil ier suit, Schuyler Colfax and James A. Garfield were loth conspicuous leaders of the Republican party. Mr. Colfax was Vice President of the United States; (ieneral Garfield was chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations. Writing to Colonel McComb in IXGB in regard to Credit Mobilier stock set apart for the purbose of corrupting leg islators, Ames bad said;—"l | have used this where it will produce j most good to us, I think." Pencilled i on the back of the same letter was i i akes Ames' memorandum list of Sena J tors and Congressmen bribed. There I were thirteen names in all. Here are ' two of them ; ! S. Colfax, H|>eaker .....s'2,o<*> , Garfield, Ohio .*. 2,000 Most of the persons affected by this j preliminary revelation hastened to deny their guilt. The denials of Schuyler Colfax and James A. Garfield were alike explicit and impressive. Colfax went from his desk in the Senato Chamber before a committee of Ihe House of Representatives, and, having sworn in the name of God to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, made this statement; I state, explicitly, that no one ever gave or offered to give me any shares of stock in the Credit Mobilier or the.l'nion Pa cific Railroad. I have never relieved nor had tendered to nic any dividend in cash, stock or bonds accruing upon any slock in either of said organisations. I never re ceived a dollar in bonds, stock or dividends. In the Senate Chamber again Colfax shed tears while protesting his inno cence, and ai-pealed to the Kternnl Tribunal of Justice to establish the j truth of his words. | (ieneral-lames A. Garfield also sworn in the name of God to tell the truth, j the vvholu truth, and nothing but the truth, and having taken that solemn ' oath he said - Mr. Ames never gave nor offered to ! give me any stock or other valuable | thing as a gilt. 1 once asked and obtained I front him, and afterward repaid to him a ; h>Mn of $300; that amount is the only valuable thing I ever received from or de livered to him. I never owned, received, or agreed to receive any stock of the Cred it Mobilier or of the I nion Pacific Rail road, nor any dividonds or profits arising from either of them. <4. Were any dividends ever tendered to you on the stock of the Credit Mobilier upon the supposition that you wore to be a subscriber 7 A. No, sir. (/. The loan you have repaid, if I under stood you correctly ? A. Yes, sir. Hoth Colfax's and Garfield'* sworn denials were made under the pressure of the emergency, and before it was known or supposed that (Jake* Ames would ever be a witness to the truth. Circumstances which it i* not now ne cessary to recall brought Oak* Ames to the stand, with hi* memorandum book. • •••••• dieneral Garfield'* account in the same memorandum book was as fol lows : Garfield, ten shares Credit Mobilier, $1,000; seven months and ten day* inter est, $43 36—2)043 36 ; 80 per cent, bond dividend at 07, $776 —$267 36 ; interest, June 30, $3 64; balance, $271.

Garfield'* case was even worse. To the evidence of hi* corrup tion and perjury was added evidence of an attempt on hi* part to suborn per jury. His cssh dividend, paid to him June 19, 1868, by Oakes Amee, amount ed to $329. After the investigation had begun he went to Ames and besought him to let tbi* payment "go as a loan," and when Ames had refused to perjure himself to save him he made figures to show that Ames still owed him $2,400 ol the bribe money. Oakes Ames testified as followa : You may slate whether, in conversa tion with you, Mr. Garfield claims, a* he claimed before us, that tho only transac tion between you was borrowing S3OO. A. No, sir; ho did not claim that with rne. (7. State how he does claim it with you ; what was said ? State all that occurred in conversation between you. A. I can not remember half of it; 1 had two or three interviews with Mr. Garfield; he want* to put it on the ha*is of a loan. <4. What did you say to him in refer ence to that state of the case ? A.I slated to him that he never asked me to lend him any money ; that I never knew he wanted to borrowed any. I did not know he wu i short; I made a statement to him showing the transaction and what there was due on it; that deducting the bond dividend and the eash dividend there was $3211 due him, for which I had given hirn a cheek : that he had never mo to loan him any money and I never loaned hirn any. tj. After you made that statement what did he state in reply? A. He wanted to have it go n a loan. (J. I'id he claim that it was in fact a loan ? A. No,sir; Ido not think he did ; no, he did not. State all you know in reference to it. A. I told hitn he knew very well it was a dividend ; I made out u statement and showed it to him at the time ; in one con versation he admitted it, and said, as near as I can remember, there was $2,4(10 due in stock and bonds ; be made a little mem orandum of SI,OOO and $1,400, and, as I recollect, said there was SI,OOO of Union Pacific stock or bonds, I do not recollect what. (4. Have you the memorandum that Mr. Garfield made? A. I have the figures that he made. Paper in Mr. Garfield's handwriting was shown to the committee, containing figure* as follows; SI,OOO 1,400 $2,400 (?. You say that these figures were made by Mr. Garfield ? A. Yes, Sir. (j. That was his idea of what' was com ing to him 7 A. Yes, sir. All thia, be it remembered, occurred after the investigation hod begun— after James A. Garfield hud sworn that he "never owned, received, agreed to receive any stock of the Credit Mobil ier or of the Union Pacific Railroad, nor any dividends 01 profits arising from either of them." And after Garfield had sworn to this falsehood a Republican committee of of tbe House of Representatives, made up of lii* own political and personal friends, and with Judge Poland, of Ver mont, a* its chairman, branded him forever oa a bribe taker and a perjurer in these blasting word* ; He (Garfield) agreed with Mr. A me* to take ten shares of Credit Mobilier stock, but did not pay for the same. Mr. Ames recievod the eighty per ccct. dividend in bond* and sold them for ninety-seven |er cent, and also received the per cent, cash dividend, which together with the price of the stock anil interest, left a balance of s32*.'. Thi* sum was paid over to Mr. Garfield by a check on the Seargeant-at- Arm*. Tho Credit Mobilier exposure shatter ed a good many reputations ; but it left no characters worse damaged than those of Schuyler Colfax and James A. Gar field.

M., Friday IABI, Hie Sound steamer Stonington ran down her sis ter steamer, tbe Narragansett, on the edge of l/ong Band Shoal, just west of the Corn Field Point Lightship, off Say brook, Connecticut.

The City of Norwich is said to have refused to lieed signals for help. Twelve bodies have been recovered, and it is supposed that 50 lives were loat. But tho Nar ragansett's passenger list wa* lost and there is a confusion of the Stonington and Narragunsett's passengers so that all the figures may vary materially There ia much complaint of lack of discipline on the Narragansett and of lack of readiness and efficiency in the life-saving apparatus on both the Ston ington and the Narragansett. Tbe City of New York brought most of the saved to the city of New York, but fifty were landed at .Stonington. ExScnnlor Bayard Deceased. WILMINGTON, I)el„ June 13.—Ex-Sen ator James A. Bayard died at 1 o'clock this morning, after being unconscious for several hours. He had been sink ing gradually for several days, his death being hastened by a tall received as he was decending the stairs last Thursday a week. There were present at the time of his death his son, Hon. Thomas F. Bayard ; Dr. J. K.

IT takes a plumed knight to jiliow tbe white feather. OREGON has 10,000,000 acre* of good ' graveyard land. A Model Illinois Oity. It is difficult to believe that o'er all the wide stretch of prairie a more enchanting place can bo found than the city of Gales burg, K nox county, Illinois. The presence and labor of man have clothed the ejiot upon which it is built with loveliness. Its beauties and attractions cannot be realized save by experience. The only item lack ing is romantic surroundings. All within is a wealth of Inanity upon which the eye delights to linger. If all of mankind and his inhabitants, except one loving couple, were subtracted from the whole, it would be a spot which would surely remind us of that Rden where man first lived, loved and fell. Tho city is the county seat of Knox county, and is five miles from Knoxville, which formerly enjoyed that honor. It is exactly one hundred and sixty-four miles southwest of Chicago, and about fifty miles east of the Mississippi river. The popula tion is between thirteen and fifteen thou sand, among whom are many Hwedes, to whose thrift and industry the city is large ly indebted. This number of people would occupy only a small spare amid the hills of Pennsylvania ; hut with the grand freedom, which a broad expanse of habitable terri tory affords, tho people have selected their plots of ground and erected their homes without limitation of space, and the city now covers an almost Interminable area over which one may walk for a week with out traversing it all. Alluding to its imperfections first, it is projier to say that the business portion of the city is comparatively homely and in significant. There are no stately business blocks—no attempts at imposing architec ture. They are all plain and unpreten tious, frequently not over one story in height, and very deceptive of the true beauty of the city. None of the store rooms are deep and capacious, yet all carry a large stock and transact a lively business. The reason for the absence of lofty archi tecture is probably due to ttie prevalence of high winds. But it is exceedingly refreshing to walk from the business portion* of the city in any direction. On either side the streets are lined with glorious shade trees, the over arching branches of which almost touch at the top, forming a bower of beauty be neath. Neat fences or evergreen hedges enclose bountiful, well-cultivated grounds. Within is a wealth of tree* and shrubbery. Nestling far back amid this profusion of green is the neat frame dwelling in which the owner resides. The wonder to strang ers is the numbers of such homes. Instead of one or two streets thus beautified, every thoroughfare presents a similar scene. There are absolutely no house* built even with the street, and there are none without surrounding grounds. Nearly all are low, rambling, neat frame hou*e*. Many are commodious and pretty, though none are elegant. Words cannot express the ex quisite, home-like aspect which pervade* each of these delightful retreat*. None of the tree* are native, but they grow in limitless numbers and luxuriant ; beauty. They take naturally to their new i homes when planted in Knox county soil, i and thrive more exuberantly than in the Kast. The satne may be said of the shrub bery and other vegetation with which the | handsome ground* are ornamented. Fruit trees indicate that the seasons here arc at least two week* in advance of those of Centre county, a* the full, round, plump, ripe cherry is now hanging in rich beauty upon the tree*. An immense plot of ground just south of tho business portion is devoted to a Park. Promenades intersect one another through it and comfortable seats invite the wayfarer to linger. It seems to be an entirely su perfluous luxury where almost every fami ly have their own private grounds. It i* worthy of remark that riding is the princi ple recreation with the ladie* and children of Gaiesburg. Every one own* a horse and conveyance, and a pleasant afternoon presents a long procession of private car riages, driven by the ladies, who are ac complished and dexturou* horsewomen. Another and more refreshing peculiaiitv is the entire absence of poverty. All can procure the necessaries of life. Taxes are low, tho city is without debt, and ha* an unexpended balance in the treasury. The Gaiesburg markets are glorious to behold. Every fruit and vegetable in high perfection are obtainable. At the first blu-h of spring the early fruit* and vegetable* are brought up the river from New Or leans. Then they are prolonged until the glowing sun has ripened the last straw berry on th* bank* of lako Michigan. Peas, beans, cauliflower, cabbage, aspara gus, beet*, lettuce, strawberries, raspber ries, cherries, Ac., are now in their (idlest glory. One of tho industrial institutions of Gaiesburg is "Brown's Cornplanter Man ufactory,'' which employs an immense amount of labor. The car shop* of the Chicago, Burlington A (Juincy railroad are also a scene of active Industry. Illi nois ha* more mile* of railroad than any other Bute in the Union, and Gaiesburg is one of the cities which reap the advantage* accruing from theae enterprise*.
