WASH. 11171tNk:, of Illinois, is most likely to be the lucky man. Tim New York herald has started a CONE LING boom. That paper declares that he is the only Il l epublican named for the Presidency who could be certain of carrying the State of New York as against SEYMOUR. .Vii is it that every Democrat is so anxious that General Gn.►\T should not bo the candidate of the Republican party' for President? Is it because they are afraid they could not easily steal the PresEdenev from him? NEW HANIPTON, lowa, has a religious fanatic of the Freeman order named ELDER. Brcx, who has been detected in cruelty to a young son. The bey is miss :, ing and the I ;fanatic has lied the neigh borlid. while the citizens are making an-ii&estigation. SEVERAL of the counties of ) the State have instructed the delegates elected to the State Convention for BLAINE, but generally the delegates go Uninstructed, being left at liberty to advocate Such a coinse as will best promote the harmony and success of the party. ' Tim Commission appointed by the last Legislature to count the votes cast at the last State election met last week at liar rithnrg, Governor How presiding. All the members of the Commission were in attendance. The vote as compiled is as follows: Butler (Rep), 280,153; Barr (Ihml), 221,715 ; -Sutton (Greenback), 27,207 ; Itii:nsunsox (Prohib), 3259. TuE P, should: be more careful when it sets ont to manufacture a boOin, that it does not be caught at its tricks. BLAINE has deservedly many. friends in Pennsyl vania, who will manifest their partizan. ship without fictitious telegrams and pre tended _reports. Much of its manufactur ed "public opinion" is too thin 'to de ceive anybody. 'THE editors of the Lancaster genter have been. getting hot water, bys - criticising the official conduct a Judge PATTEEsON. On Wednesday the Judge summoned before him Messrs. STEINMAN and llUNsai.„ the editors,' who are 'ilse prattiiing attorneys, because of a criti cism made in Tuesday's Intelligeneer charging the-court with boipi; intiwesuwit by partisan considerations is disposing of a cue known as the SNYDER liquor case, which bas been a case of much notoriety there, and has already caused a libel suit. The Judge declared that they should be riled to show cause why they should not be stricken from the roll of attorneys. Messrs. STEINMAN and i l3/ISM denied the authority of the court to require them to answer, as attorneys, for their editori al criticisms. "Parr the sorrows of a poor old man." Lours ttoeswELL, aged 101 years, who 012C0 held the-office of Treasurer of Pike County, has applied to the County courts to compel his wealthy children to support him—a fact which' argues, at least, that his office did not enrich him. RocKwELL's wife recently died at the age of 95. Tun Cortes of 'Spain by a vote of 230 to 10 has finally passed the bill providing for the ibolition of alaiery in Cuba. the bill ha's been carefully framed so as to guard against the evil coisequences which would attend any suddmi 'change of such a radical nature as emancipation. -The operation of the bill will extend . ovee iten years, until the expiration of which time the liberty granted will not be plen ary. TEIERE , bavo been several announce ments (none of them official, however) that Colonel McCLunz was studying 'for the ministry. We have not placed much reliance upon them, as the columns of the Times showed no evidences of repentance and reformation, but at the last Sunday morning breakfast, at the Church on Vine street below Eighth, Philadelphia, Cola eel McCt.tna was announced as one of the speakers, with other clerical gentle , men. GENERAL MARRY WHITE is:stirring up the people alon e , the Kiskiminetas to pe tition Congress for an appropriation to aid in improving the navig a tion of that celebrated stream. During the late dry season the trout' had great difficulty in ascending. We , have no doubt with a sufficiently large outlay, the K. or the Susquehanna could be made navigabl6 by the steamboats which are constructed for traveling through meadows wet with a heavy dew. Tug Harrisburg Patriot is a hopeful newspaper, and like most of the Demo cratic organs knows what should be done by the Republicans, and what is certain to happen. It -helps the GRANT boom, with the following cheerful prediction, which is important, if true : "The chances - are that in a little while' the present depression in the third-term stock will be. succeeded I.liy an upward tendency, and it would not be at all surprising if General ORANT will in the eud be the only candidate before the Re publican National Convention." C., 11. Johntim, /D. . . - BY a late decisio n of the Supreme Court in the case of the Armenia Insurance Company vs. Petit, and wife, an import , ant question in fire-insurance law is set= tied in this State, Judge PAXSON deeidel that in other States the rule appears to be 't that the issuing of a policy when a ipoction.Of the questions in the applica tion remained unaswered is a waiver of 'answers to such questions. -. . As this rule seems reasonable we adopt it. Having issued the policy, the Company must be presumed to have been satisfied with the risk." llosr distressing accounts continue to come of the suffering of the people of Ire land from scarcity of provisions and fuel. All accounts agree that the distress is steadily increasing,' and news has been re ceived of many deaths fr m starvation. In the meantime the agitation goes on in all directions, and numerous agrarian out rages are reported. Further arrests have been made of persons suspected of com plicity in outbreaks at Claremorris, one of the leading agitators in that vicinity being among the number. At a meeting of the Home Rule League a resolutio was passed bfacclamation thanking the people of the United States for their sym pathy and liberality to the distressed peo ple of Ireland. We trust that the Republican Con, vention to meet on Monday next will be composed of delegates frdm every election district. The' Rep4blicans of the county should be well repre sented that there may be a well de fined expression of their sentiments and wishes. We hope that its .pro= ceedings will be conducted in no narrow 'spirit of partizanship, nor for the purposd of gratifying malevolent or vindictive feelings nor for the subservence of private or selfish in terests, but solely with reference to the promotion of the welfare of the party and contributing to its success in the coming election. Having no axes to grind, no mercenary schemes to promote, the REPORTER has no desire to create a feeling for or against any of the very acceptable names suggested for the Presidential nomination. What we particularly wish - to impress upon the Republi cans of Bradford is, the overwhelm ing importance of the struggle which is soon to take place, and the great necessity there is for harmonious and united action. Whoever would cre ate discord and confusion in our ranks is a traitor worse than an operi enemy, and should be treated as all traitors deserve.. It would be unwise to commit the Republican party to any candidate or to any particular course at such an early day. Although the Confed erate Brigadiers in Congress are now on their good behavior for the ex press purpose of quieting the appre hensions of the Northern people, Tet there is no security fqr the future, and occurrences may happen within a few months_ which will change the whole aspect of - political affairs, and make a nomination which would be very proper today extremely injudi cious in June. Hence, we do not believe that it is prudent nor proper now to tie the hands of the Republi can party; but we would 'leave it to the judgment of the assembled Na tional ,Convention to determine who, under the circumstances, was the most available candidate. /Who that will be, time and the situation alone can determine.. We hive the utmost confidence that, impressed with the importance of making a wise selection, and fully aware that the Candidate must be acceptable to the people, oving,to the closenesit of THE COENTY CONTENTION the contest, the ehOice may safely . be left to the judipient of the Conven tion. - _ We do not mean to hairnet° that the popular will maYilotbe expressed, but in nine cases out of ten where resolutions of instruction are forced through a Convention they are not a correct expression of public opinion, but intended for private use and . for the purpose of advancing selfish ends The Republicans of. Bradford have usually pursued a wise and sensible course by selecting reliable men as delegates—men' who understood the feelings and wishes of our people? confiding in their discretion and fidelity, and holding thenuesponsitde for the proper exercise of the power delegated to them. KEEP COOL! That is our advice to those excited Democrats --and hysterical Repub licans, who- are becoming terrified and boisterous over the matter of the Republican nominee for the Presi dency. That the Democracy should bother themselves about our candi date is perfectly natural. They are hankering after the flesh-pots. They have been kept out in the cold for twenty years, and they are painfully anxious to get control of the govern ment. Consequently they have a great interest as to who shall be our candidate. They cannot control nor disgOise their anxiety, and they of of course, attempt to' demolish the strongest first, because Ithe strongest • Is the greater obstacle ' in their way. The Democratic programme :is ,so plain that the dullest and most un• concerned cannot,mistake the inten tion. It is to seize upon the Presi dency should the popular declaration be against them. For this purpose :Republican Congressmen will be un seated in violation of bOth law and decency, so that a majority of the Congressional delegations will be controlled by the Democracy.' What has happened in Maine is an indica tion of the desperate and revolution ary measures which will be employed to set aside the popular will, and pre-, vent the peaceful inauguration Of the President should the 'verdict be against them. Raving such treason able and revolutionary designs, it is to be exqected that the plotters should be fn the greatest fear of the man who Would be most certain to thwart their plans. Of course, they cry out, the loudest against the man they dread the most. .No one can blame them for this, though it 'is not exactly discreet. But so far as Republicans are con cerned, , there is eser3 reason for moderation. It will not do to be terrified by the outcries of th 4 De mocnicy whose attacks upon the Republic /n candidatei remind us of the Chinese: method of •goingi into battle, with a great beating of gongs and tom toms, to frighteg the timid. The beat use to be made of the noise and Obuse of the Democracy, is to arrive at a correct understanding of the desires and purposes of our ad versaries. By doing this We can easily determine which of the per-, sons named is the rOost dreaded by' our opponents, and besides we can know in 'a great measure, what we will have to meet during a protract- ed and bitter canvass. Fair words from the Democracy are all very handsome before a nomination, but after that ; the vials of partixanship and vituperation will be opened, and the fair spoken words may prove to have been uttered for the purpose of entrapping the Republicans. When you know what an adversary desire's you to do, it is always best not to do it. We notice that some of our Re publican contemporaries are exercis ing themselves upon the Presidential question, in a manner which is neither discreet nor proper. They are endeavoring to create booms, with an eye upon prospective post offices, or for the gratification of their vindictiveness.. If the nomination of a candidate for the Presidency were equivalent to an election, Republi cans could afford to sneer at the prominent and active men in the party, and wrangle and stir up strife, and gratify their petty malignity generally. But such is not the , case. The leaden; will need to exercise all their wisdom, and the party must give a hearty and undivided support to the nominee or we shall not be successinl. It is no time now to denounce the men who have done such efficient service in the past for the party and the country. Bat for the CHANDLERS, the CAMERONS and Suransms, the Presidency would have been lost in 1876, and TILDEN would have taken the Presidential chair by virtue - of the forcible disfranchisement of Southern voters. Nothing but their courage, promptness and shrewdness saved us from the -perils of a Demo cratic Administration. These men are no less anxious now than they were in 1876 for the success of the Republican candidate, and upon them will depend in a large measure the conduct and successful terthins tion of the campaign. - Hurrah and gush does very-well before a Conven tion meets, but afterwards comes business. The ranks are to be closed up, and the fierce onslaughts of an unscrupulous and desperate enemy repulsed. There must not be any weak points, and to elect our - Fred: dent in 1880 will require the united strength of the party. There are several candidates men tioned, and the Republican voters have their preferences. It is their un doubted privilege, and it is bad policy to denounce them for it, or to By in a passion because there are differences of opinion as to who is the proper man. Bulldozing don't sower. 311 iho - Republica PaTth whether it qs attempted by Demo cmta or Republicans: So we advise our readers to keep cool; don't act hastily nor foolishly; partlcularly don't allow your enemies to frighten you with the spectres of imaginary evils; don't permit the Democracy to dictate what your preferences shall be, and aboie all be ready when the Chicago Convention makes its choice, to hurrah for the nominee and work for his election. . SHOT AT AND LIED AT Ex-Senatoi HOwz basin the North American Review for February an article in which he considers the third term question and what the framers of the constitution said and did with respect to, the propriety or impropriety of repeated -re-elections of, a citizen to the Presidency of the United Stated. We do not propose to give an abstract of the article or the argument, but refer to the view taken by Mr. Mows of the bugaboo business connected with the third term discussion, a matter to which we alluded the other day. Mr. Sows asserts that the bugaboo business de feated GRANT'S renomination in 1876 because " a political party must be brave and conscientious before it will venture to . stake its hopes of the Post-Offices upon the re-election of a President who has been fired at by millions of his countrymen for four years, and lied , at by more millions for eight years. But when to the hostility engendered by villifleation is added the distrust born of a .popu- lar panic, no matter how groundless, temerity itself would doubt the avail ability of the victim." The phrase "shot at and lied at" covers the case exactly. The men who _ fought in the rebellion and favored it are the men who charged GRANT, and do now, charge him, with entertaining treasonable designs against his cot i ttry. Thus we have the curious speetacle afforded of men who really did try to destroy the government accusing of a similar Purpose the man who saved the government from their assaults; 'and we have the far , more curious fact that thousands of loyal men' are willing to be frighten ed by the lie. But supposing the lie to be a truth ; supposing that GRANT did Cherish a purpose to keep himself in the White House if he should get there again ; there be any reason, in the event of his re-election, why the minas of patriotic men should be filled with panic ? Men who overturn governments by force have armies behind them. If a President bent upon revolution could get the whole of our:army just where he wanted it, what could he do with it that would endure against the wishes of the people ? And how many of the officers of that army could be depended upon to back up a traitorous and patricidal President ? But then he has the officeholders, say the bugaboo authors. There are eighty thousand of them . ; and there are more than forty millions of people. The odds are against the officeholders, even if they should be Unanimous for revolution. That they would be is not highly probable, and as Mr. HOWE remarks, "audacity itself has not yet. venturd to sug gest that a private citizen is likely to ride down people and Postmasters both, merely because be once con trolled appointments." The matter is almost too silly for discission ; it would not be worthy of discussion but for the fact that men of high political and• social standing hive over and over again warned the people of their. danger from this source, ,while the Demo cratic and guerilli press shrieks itself hoarse with alarm' cries, and Democrats in Congress 'pass resolu tions declaring that a third term for GRANT is "fraught with peril for our institutions." When these things are done and said it is time for people who have decency and-'honesty, with intelligence, to protest against them in the name of fair play: GRANT may not be the best man for the next Presidency. It may be inadvis able to break for him the precedTnt against a third term; probably it would be ; but nobody has any right' to insinuate that he is a traitorous rascal, and no American' who ..has any sense will permit himself to be frightened by such libelous. utter ances. If the people want GRANT in the . Presidency they have a constitu tional right to put him there; if he should be put there he would un doubtedly go out at the end of his term. If they do not want to give him a third term they can elect some other man. But, in any event, the campaign for and against the various candidates ought to be conducted in some other fashion than that used by nurses who compel. babies to behave by alluding to imaginary black men under_ the bed.

As this was the first annual meeting since the death of the lamented President of the company. ASA PACKER, much interest was manifest ed regarding the election of his annousor. Though the influence of• the trustees of the PACKER estate, a ticket way prepared lin advance, and, as the controlling inter. eat of the " corporstion Centered in the PACKER estate, they elected to the office of president the old- vice President CHARLES Eissmarmia, and following Board of Directors : DAM Tawas, ABABEL WELCR, WILLIAM L. Conant:mutt, Arno PARDEE, WILLIAM A. Drumm, Damon B.- 'MARKLE, Romer H. 13AiIRE, HARRY E. PACKER, JAMB I. BLAKSLEE; ROBERT A. PACKER, ELIBRA _P. WILBER and Josarn PATrznaos. Previous to the election, the reports of the vice president end sopirtutepdont 9f - • the road for the list year weraresiland approved. The vice president in hit# m. port, feelingly alluded to the death tribe late president of thOcompsny. Cruniam,gawrszoiuta,. who lir been chosen to Miami the late Asa PAC= as preoAttit of the 'Lehigh Valkry Rail road, was born in Philadelphialleptember 1829. Li June, 1857; ten years after his graduation from the University_ of Pennsylitania, he was .elected president. of the Quakake Railroad COmpany, in the coal regions of Pennsylvania. He was afterwards chosen president of the Lehigh and Mahanoy Railroad. When this company was merged in the Lehigh Valley Railroad •Company, in 1886, be be came emaciated in the trunk lir in the Board Of Directors, and in the spring of 1868 was elected vice president of the cor poration of which he is- now tlle head. "Twit Democrats have made a charac teristic mistake in sustaining the Maine conspiracy," said the Hon. GALTISIIA A. Gnow to a New York Triltine represen tative recently. " Their attitude is in harmony, however, with their general' ideas of government. They want a loose ly organized government, With no. final arbiter to settle disputes between differ ent branches on questions of the validity of powers &seamed by the Executive or Legislatures, so that when there is any hitch in the working of the machinery the whole thing will go into chaos. - They claim that the-Supreme Court in Maine has ntiright to dtermine whether a body pretending to be a Legislature was a le gal Legislature or not ; but if their posi tion was correct a Governor might give certificates totwenty-five men, and those twenty-five could vote whom they pleased into the vacant seats. The bogus body thus constituted could-go on electing the State officers and making lairs, and there' would be no way to right the wrong and constitute the legislative body from the legally elected members. Such a posi tion is absurd. ' It would reduce State, Govermnent to a succession 'of conspira cies and coup •d' etas. There must be some way of holding Governors and Leg islatures amenable to' constitutions and laws or the rights of the people may at any time be overthrown." • TRITE bills were found at Harrisburg last week against W. .H. Esurnur., CHARLES B. SALTER, 'and JESSE R. CRAWFORD for perjury before the House Investigating committee. AU of the.ac cused have now been indicted—eight for corrupt solicitation, and three for perjury in addition* In the case Of COMMIS B. §ALTEN• charged with attempted bribery of mem bers of the Legislature, on Wednesday the defence asked fora postponement of the trial, mainly on the groind of the absence of important witnesses. After some discussion the attorneys for the se emed agreed to plead as directed in all the cases, provided they were continued' to March. Mr. (lowan then drew up' an order, which all the counsel agreed W. and the Court adopted it. It provides that all dr) cases go over to an adjourned court, beginning on the second Monday in Marchan d continued two weeks, timi that there be no further continuance tor any cause. The effect el the pleas of counsel for the defence is to preclude the interposition of dilatory tactics to obstruct a trial. SENATOR LAXON . , of : Blair County, and Mr. PAssxona,' of Schuylkill, are the prominent candidates for Auditor Gener-• al. .Both are excellent men, and have many friends.. Mr. Pessmorts has the advantage of once receiving the nomina tion and suffering defeat, at a time when the Republican State Ticket was beaten,' and there is a strong feeling that justice requires his nomination now, when suc cess is certain. Senator LAMON has been repeatedly elected, and there is a &cling/ that he has sacrificed himself long enough to save the district, which is naturally Democratic, to the party. In 1872 he had no opposition, and received the full Re publican and Democratic vote of the old District, composed of Blair, Somerset, Bedford and Fulton Counties. In 1874 he:bad a strong opponent in Mr. &kunst. HENSHEY, but was re-elected by a large majority in the new district compnaed'of Blair and Cambria. In 1876 LAWN was again elected to the Senate by more than one thousand majority, though the fol lowing' year showed the District to be Democratic by nearly fifteen hundred • majority. WE agree with the North American in the sensible and, well-timed advice con tained in the following remarks. The suggestions are temperate and worthy of consideration and regard : , "The ground occupied by the North American is that there are no leaders in the party in the State who propose to set the fairly-expressed wishes and , pre ferences of the Republican masses at nought. We assume that the wishes of the people will be consulted, and, when made known, will be carried out so far as striking the balance justly is concerned.- Hence, should al majority of the counties send delegates to the State Convention instructM agaitd, a pledge, the Conven tioni will regard the instructions as •an thoritative, and govern itself accordingly. There is no oth r way so fair and so un objectionable, and the effort of the coun ty leaders should be directed to that end. So much may happen before the assemb ling at Chicago that the most sagacious among our skilled politicians are properly reticent when consulted about men, or the probable result of the .7.dne Conven tion. Though the Democrats have load. ed their party down with blunders and , crimes, it is best to bear in mind the fact that no amount of blundering can deter the Democratic rank and file from mak ing common cause with their leaders. We shall have an united Democratic party to fight under any circumstances at all like ly-to rule. And we must refrain from ty ing the hands of our delegates, and leave them free to unite on the man who shall seem to be the best for the country. That the Chicago Convention will nominate a man of positive character is a foregone conclusion. No other de scription of man will prove acceptable to the Republican masses, and no other can successfully contest the field." ''4 Tar. Washington correspondent of the North iimericen has the_ saggescicm of a ticket which is commanding coniiderable attention at the National Capital. The gamdp is to the following effect : I learn from a brainy and much posted Pennsyl theta politician that it is on the programme to press the name of Hon. Galosh& A.

St will astonish your farmers doubtless to be told that during the bat few - moths the sale of eleomarga; rine has reached such an extent that the trade of the regular butter dealers has fallen off fully fifty Or cent. —that is to say,' one-lialf of the "butter" weekly sold in Philadelphia is not butter at all, but an Imitation article. This computa tion has been arrived at on a basis of fig. urea supplied by some of the largest wholesale dealers in the city: Probably this estimate is too large, but there is doubtless a largetimount of the fictitious butter sold as the genuine product of the dairy, notwithstanding the laws regulat ing and prescribing the manner in which it shall be offered fur sale, which direct that it shall be sold as such. The regu lar Witter dealers are disposed to attack the venders of oleomargarine, and by en forcing a compliance with the law to break up the sale, as few persons would buy it, knowing what it was. 1 Winter has hardly put in an ; appear &bee, yet strawberries are here. Not strawberries fee the masses, however, but only for the epicures, and for only a few be these. The first arrivals for the year Were seen itr'is Chestnut street fruiterer's yesterday, having arrived in the.morning from Charleston, South Carolina. About thirty-two 'quart boxes were received. These were marked up at two dollars a quart; or about seven cents a berry. The old saying that "murder will out," has been contirined by the conviction of a rough named Theodore J. McOnrk, for the murder of James Needs, who was a colored porter employed in White's den tal depot in this city. The bloody deed was committed October 7, 1865, and the victim was found dead in the office of the establishment. He was lying in.a pool of blood, his hands and feet bound, a large gag in his mouth, and there were wounds in the head, which showed • that t he had been badly beaten. The safe was , open and a portion of its contents and other valuable property had been carried off. No clue could be obtained to the murder and robbery, and there is little probabili ty that the mystery would have been ever cleared up had not the guilty'agent found it impossible to keep the awful secret to himself. • McGurk, who belonged to a crow in this city, who were charged_ with ny crimes, after an absence of some ire in 1877, was in Wills hospital to have his eyes operated on. There ho enlisted the sympathies of one of the nurses, and af terwards accompanied her to Erie, Pa., where he resided until his arrest, which was brought about from his confessions to the nurse, and to the city editor of the Erie DispateX.' The jury found him guil ty of murder in the first degree, and now, after an interval of fifteen years the gal lows claims its due. The history of the case, the evidence and the tragic ending reads like a 'romance in which crime and retribution are prominent. ' . The annual report of Collector Tutton, shows that during the year 1879 the value of domestic exports shipped from this port was $50,685,838, being an increase of $2,306,807 over the exports of 1878. The shipnients of petroleum were : 3,241,. 1 503 gallons of 'crude, to the value of $218,184 ; 82,370,211'. gallons of refined, valued at $6,930,040. There were also exported 2,750,027 gallons of naphtha and benzine valued at $181,263. Bread stuffs to the value of $.?1,4,108,097 were ex ported, and provisions valued at $6,777,- 296 ; 1,910 *tassels, with a tonnage of 1,444,363, entered from, and 1,599 ves sels, with a tonnage of 1,273,083, cleared, for, foreign ports. The coastwise en trances were 1,068 and the clearances 1,385. The immigrants arriving during the year numbered 8,246 males and 4,337 females, a total of 12,886. Of these, Eng land sent 3,887; Germany, 2,433; Ire land, 1,870; Norway, 1,283, and Sweden, 1,233. The telephone has come into very gen eral use in the city. It has been intro duced into all the business places and many private houses. .Ifs banker or merchant down town wishes to converse with his family, all he has to do is to be put in communication with his resider), and ho can carry on a conversation as well as if his wife or- fainily was ate his side. flp a business man" can speak to thousands of other business men by ask ing the Main office to put him in commu nication. The convenience and value of the telephone will be readily seer, as it saves an immense amount of, time and travel. The huge CoMecum building at the corner of Broad and Locust streets, one of the unfortunate ventures of the Cen tennial year, has been taken down, and is going to Boston. , It was put up for the pnrpose of displaying the diorama of i "Paris by Night,"- but fora year or more past has been used as a market house. The quiet of the Sabbath was broken by two fires involving in each case seri ous loss. About three o'clock in the af ternoon flames burst from the fourth sto ry window of Whitman & • Son's candy manufactory, comer of Market and Twelfth streets. The third and fourth floors were burned, and the building del uged with water, making the stock of sweets a total loss. The total loss is $BO,- 000. Later in the afternoon the planing mill of Charles Doerr, West Philadelphia, was dfstroyed, with a loss of $30,000. • A graceless female, named Grace Black wOod,l becoming saturated with whiskey, sat down on a red-hot. stave, Saturday night.
