At the recent election in Iowa nearly very county Treasurer was defeated for re-election, and many of them seem to be terribly alarmed at the general overhauling of books that must follow. A local jour nal says : " The Jackson County Treasurer takes time by the forelock, and announces that 120,000 of the funds in bis keeping was stolen tbo other night by burglars." It seems to be the general impression that there will be no repeal of the con gressional salary bill. As congress is now mostly composed of place hunters and poli ticians, instead of statesmen, their motto is, " hold on to all you get, and got hold of all you can." All but two members of the next congress have already drawn their .salary for two quarters at the new rate. elections. The following may be summed up as the result of the elections held la.it Tuesday. In New York the Democrats bad a ma jority iu the State of about 20,000,aud have elected enough members of the Legislature to mnke the Republican majority quite mall. , , . Wisconsin has also been carried by the Democrats, who elected the governor and a working majority in the legislature. Massachusetts elects the Republican gov ernor by about 13,000 majority. General Banks who run as independent candidate for the Senate, beat his opponent and is elected. In Virginia, the Conservative ticket is generally elected. In New Jersey, the Legislature on joint ballot will be Republican bv a majority of 11. In Minnesota, the Republican ticket is elected with the exception of State Treas urer, for which office the Farmers' ticket was probably successful. , In Kansas, returns from 87 districts give the Republicans 20 members and the op position 01. In the Senate the Republicans have a majority of 30, but on a joint ballot the opponents have a majority of 20 or 22 Totes. In Maryland, the Democrats wore gen erally successful and have a majority in the State of about 20,000, and in the Legis lature will have a majority on joint ballot of over 50. The New Constitution. Tho Convention after a year's labor offer to the citizens of the State the result of their .deliberations. While not what we bad a right to expect from the time spent there are some exceedingly good points. The whole however has to be voted on,' either for or against, and consequently voters must decide whether they think the good outweighs the defects. In our opin ion it does. Below wo furnish a synopsis of the provisions embodied in the constitu tion. TUB LEGISLATURE. The House is to consist of not less than two hundred members, and the Senate of fifty members. The sessions are to be Biennial instead of, Annual as at present. Members are to serve two years and Sen ators four, and are to receive a fixed salary not to be changed during the terra for which they are elected, and shall receivo no ad ditional pay for serving on committees. Each county shall be entitled to at least one member, and additional members for each seventeen thousand of a population. Every bill passed must be read three times, one day io intorvene between each reading, and the final vote must be taken by yeas and nays which must be recorded. Most special legislation is prohibited, and local or special bills not prohibited must be ad vertised iu the locality affected, for thirty days, previous to the introduction of the bill, Another section prohibits investment of trust funds by executors, administrators and guardians iu bonds and stock of any private corporation. . .TUB EXECUTIVE. The term for which the Governor shall serve is increased to 4 years, and he is inel igible tore-election for the succeeding term. A Lieutenant Governor is provided for, subject to the same provisions, who shall be president of the Senate. The Govornor has the power to veto any bill and may veto any part of an appropriation bill, and approve the balance. This is a very good provision. A Secretary of Internal affairs to serve four years, an Auditor General for three years, and a State Treasurer for two years is also provided for, the two latter not to be elected for two consecutive terms. THE JUDICIARY. The Supreme Court will bo increased from five to seven judges, whose term of office will be twenty-one years instead of fifteen years. Thoy are not eligible to re election. Provisions are made that all cases of felo nious homicide and other criminal matters provided for by law may be removed to the Supreme Court for review. Parties, by agreement filed, may iu any civil case dispense with trial by jury, and submit the case for the decision of the court. Counties containing 40,000 inhab tants will constitute a separate judicial district. The judges are required to audit and settle administrators' and decedonts' accounts free of cost to the parties. Whenever two judges of tho Supreme Court are to be chosen for the same term of service, each voter shall vote for one only ; and when three are chosen, be shall vote for no more than two, and candidates high est in vote shall be declared elected. BUPFHAOE AND ELECTION. The general election is to be changed from the second Tuesday in October to the first Tuesday in November. The local election is to be held on the third Tuesday of February, at which the city, ward, borough and township offi cers are to bo elected. The article requires a residence of each voter of at least two months in the district to entitle him to a vote, and in the case of foreigners thoy must be citizens of the United Status for one month to entitle them to the elective franchise. Every ballot shall be numbered and recorded on the list of voters opposite the name of the elector. TAXATION AND FINANCE. This article requires that all taxation shall be uniform upon the samo class of subjects, and shall be levied and collected under general laws. It provides that the legislature shall con tinue and maintain the sinking fund, pay the interest of the public debt, and annual ly reduce the principal not less than $250, 000. It prohibits the use of the sinking fund for any other purpose. It declares the making of capital out of the public moneys by any of the officers of the State or member of the goneral assembly a crim inal offence. EDUCATION. The legislature Is required to maintain a thorough and efficient system of public schools, and appropriate f 1, 000,000 annu ally for that purpose. Women over twenty one years of age are eligible for any office under the school laws. - COUNTY OFFICES. County officers are to be salaried, and the fees whioh thoy are authorized to re ceive shall be paid into the state or county treasury. Provisions are made for the eloction of three county commissioners and three auditors ou the limited vote system, giving the minority a represontution in each board. ' ' ' RAILROADS AND CANALS. This article authorizes any association or corporation to organize for tho purpose of constructing and operating a railroad or canal between any points in this state. It prohibits railroad and canal ' companies from making any undue or unreasonable discrimination in freight in the same direc tion to an amount not exceeding the charge to a more distant station. It also prohibits the consolidations of railroads and canals with competing lines by lease or otherwise, and will not allow any company doing the business of a com mon carrier to engago in any other business, or hold or to acquire lands. No officer of any railroad or canal com pany shall furnish materials or supplies for such company ; and no company shall make any discrimination in charges or facilities between transportation companies and individuals. No free passes shall be granted except to officers and employees of such company, and no passenger railway iu any city shall extend or construct their road without the consent of the local au thorities. F2T Philip B. Harvard, of Jamaica, was shot and instantly killed last week, by one of two men who were gunning ou bis laud, It is supposed that, seeing them trespassing on his property, be ordered them to leave, as bis wife saw him from the bouse talking to them, when one raised his gun, took deliberate aim at Harvard, and fired twice. The men escaped iu a wagon. Mrs. Har vard ran to her husband, but be was dead. James Lennon has been arrested for the murder. IW The Hudson couuty, N. J., Grand Jury have presented the Police Commis sioners of Jersey City and Hobokeu for failure to close the liquor saloous on Sun days, and the newsmen who sell immoral sheets published in New York. Wade, the Murderer. Probably the hardost specimen of hu manity, was Wade, the murderer of the McBrlde family, who Wo hung at Wil- liamsport, 6n Thursday last. The Sheriff made a botch of the execution, tho rope slipped the first time, dropping the crim inal to the ground, necessitating the hang ing of him the second time. Perhaps as ho committed two murders, the Sheriff thought ho ought to be hung twice. On Hie Monday night preceding the execution the officer on watch Imagined that thoro was something peculiar in the appearance of the iron collar around Wade's neck, and he took occasion to engage Wade in con versation, and looked sharply, when he was confirmed in his impression by finding that the collar bad been filed entirely through, being in such a condition that it could at any time be removed with ease. A new collar was procured and placed on the pris oner, and a search of the cell was instituted which resulted in finding a pocket knife socreted in the wall. It was also found that he had a roll of money in bis mouth which he was vigorously chewing, with the apparent intension of swallowing it. Great efforts were necessary to force him to dis gorge, and it was not until he had been choked vigorously that the money was ex tricated therefrom. The roll contained fifty dollars in greenbacks, a fifty dollar bill and several small bills. The Impression is that Wade was saving the money to use in the event of his escape, and that with the knife he proposed taking his life before the day of execution, in case his efforts at es cape Bbould prove unsuccessful. He ap peared quite crestfallen at being thwarted in his designs and indulged in many ex pressions of chagrin at the plight in which he found himself. It has since been learn ed the knife and file wore supplied to Wade by tho girl Lillie Mitchell, who was con fined iu the jail for throwing vitriol. A New use for Wash-women. A woman living in Patchogue, L. I., has charged her husband with instigating his servant-girl to poison her. The girl, how ever, repented, and informed her mistress before it was too late that her tea was poi soned. Unwilling to give entire credence to so terrible a story, the woman tested the properties of the tea by trying its effects on a casual washer-woman, whom she induced to drink some of it. The washer-woman, being mado violently ill, all doubt was at an end, and the outraged wife immediately took measures to bring her husband to justice. The story certainly is a remark able ono, and the presence of mind of the woman in making her experiment to test the poisonous nature of the tea is quite unprecedented. Sho has undoubtedly add ed to the uses of washer-women. Miscellaneous News Items. tST Dr. G. W. Bernbeisel, of Columbia, was pushed from the door of a hotel in that place, and fell upon his bead, receiving probably fatal injuries. tW Rats attacked a little child of Ste pheu M'Cormick, of Butler, a few days ago, during the absence of its parents, and stripped tho flesh from one of its hands. VS" The trouble between tho employes and the East Tennossee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad is unadjusted. The men obstruct the running of freight trains, but there is no interference with mail trains. (3TJ, Nicholas Doyle, of Oneida, New York, arrived at St. Jobu'a New Brunswick ou the Ut with bis wife. The next day he shot hei dead in the street, and afterwards shot and killed himself. Jealousy was the supposed cause. t& Considerable feeling exists among workmen in Jeffersonvillc, Indiana, in con sequence of officers of tho Penitentiary hir ing convict labor cheaply outside of the State grounds, contrary to a decision of the Indiana Supreme Court. VS" Last week, Rose O'Neill, residing at Twenty-fourth and Kent streets Philadel phia, attempted to hasten a stove fire by pouring coal oil on it, and the result was that she was so badly burned that her life was despaired of. t2f The Steam Ship Bavarian from Liv erpool to Montreal, took fire and was burn ed in the St. Lawrence River on the 0th iust. The crew and passengers took to the boats, but fourteen persons are missing and are supposed to be lost. fW Several inspectors of elections are now on trial in the United States Circuit Court at Louisville, charged with having refused the votes of negroes. A demurrer was presented by Hon. Heury Stanberry that the Circuit Court had no jurisdiction over the case. The suit will occupy the Court for some time. CUT On the night of tho 3rd the negroes created a disturbance in Petersburg, Vir ginia, during a political meeting. Thcy smashed windows and threw stones at a number of persons. The military was called out, but the excitement subsided and tbey were not needed. ' , tiT In Wilton, New Hampshire, Mr. William Stockell had occasion to attend to some important business In town, and was compelled to leave his family of little chil dred by themselves. The little ones, in some manner or other, set fire to the house and one of them perished iu the flames. ty One of tho things you read of recent ly occurred In Wilmington, Del. A man was detected hurrying away from a butch er's stall with a steak which he had stolen under his coat. A policeman followed him to his home, and peeping through the window, saw him give the steak to bis children, who devoured it raw. Upon re port of this being made to the butchor, his bosom so glowed with benevolent sym pathy, that instead of prosecuting, be sent the starving family a large basket of meat and a little ensh to buy wood to cook it. Z3T C. M. Irwin, the conductor of the Freeport Accommodation on tho West Pennsylvania Railroad, was found dead on his train near Ross station Friday morning a week. Some passengers who wanted to get off there noticed that tho train did not stop, and went into the conductor's car to see what was the matter, when they found the deocased lying dead, ho having expired from heart disease. tW A student was expelled from La fayette college, Boston, for stealing. He had a regular jury trial before his class mates, which lasted three hours. BIATIC CHOLERA IN CHINA. AlmoHt Every Cno Cured Willi PAIN -KILLER I Dear Sirs : During a residence of some ten years in Blum and China, as a missionary. I found your Pain-Klllcra most valuable remedy for that fearful scourge the Cholera. In administering the medicine I found It most effectual to give a tea-spoonful of Fain Killer In a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar , then after about fifteen minutes, begin to give about a lablcspoonful of the new mixt ure every few minutes until relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to the extremities. Bathe the stomach with tho Fain-Killer, clear, and rub tho limbs briskly. Of those who had the Cholera, and took the medicine faithfully, In the way Btated above, eight out often recov ered. Rev. It. TELFORD, Missionary In China. DeakSius: During a long residence Iu China I have used your valuable- Paln-Killer, both in my own family and among the Chinese, and have found It a most excellent medicine In the summers of 18U3 and 1863, while resid ing In Shaughal, I found It an almost certain cure for cholera, If used in time. Indeed, us ing It in a great many instances, I rU not re member fulling In a single case. For three years I have been residing In this place, more than fifty miles from a physician, and have been obliged often to fall upon my own resour ces In cases of sickness. The Chinese come to ns In great numbers for medicine and advice. Though without medical knowledge ourselves, the few simple remedies we can command are so much In advance even of their physicians, that we have almost dally applications. We allow them to como,because It brings ns In con tact with them and opens a door of usefulness. In diarrhea, colic, vomiting, cholera, coughs, etc., your Pain-Killer has been my chief med icine. Yours, very truly. Kev.T. P. CRAWFORD, Tungchow, China. Those using Paln-Killer should strictly ob serve the following directions i At the commencement of the disease, take, a teaspoon ful of Paln-Killer, In sugar and water, and then bathe freely across tho stomach and bowels with the Paln-Killer clear. Bbould the diarrhea and cramp continue, repast the dose every fifteen minutes. In this way the dread ful scourge may be checked and tliw patient re lived In the course of a few hours. N. B. Be sure and get the genuine article i and it is recommended by those who have used the Faln-Klller for the cholera, thai In extreme cases the patient take two (or more) tenspoou fuls Instead of one.
