Bowen's testimony in the Beecher cab.
upset the whole theory of tl'e defence.—
The only explanation of Beecher's re—
morseful letteri has been that they re—
sulted from his profound regret for hav—
ing advised Bowen to •discharge Tiltun
from his employment. Bowen now
swears that Beecher never gave him such
advice and had nothing to do with the
difficulty which led to Tilton's dismissal.
The Republican journals say that the
fact that there is no serious opposition to
Hartrauft's nomination is phenomenal.—
The same phenomenon °enured at the
second nomination of Curtin and of
Geary. Probably a more striking par—
allel to Hartranit's case was the enthusi
asm which marked the selection of Gov
ernor Dix in New York for th.. slaughter
in November last. That Was phenom
enal too.
It cost one hundred dollars to call a
railroad millionaire in Massachusetts "a
public robber and public corrupter." The
Springfield Republican has tested the
matter in the case of one Phelps who
sued it for 8200,000 damages. A jury
trial having been dispensed with, it must
gratify Mr. Phelps to find out that in the
opinion of the Judge he was only dam
aged the two thousandth part of what he
thought he was.
One of our Republicans said to us the
other day, that the suggestion in the
Montrose Republican that the Democrats
who have lacked from 1,000 to 1,800 ma—_
joritY of electing their candidate for the'
last twenty years, have had a ring to
con troll their nominations, was a very
novel defense for the "Court House
Ring." He thought it must have been
desirable to be it candidate under such
circumstances and he would have no ob
jection to letting the "Court House Ring"
take the same position this fall.
The Harrisburg Telegraph undertakes
to soothe and caress the dissatisfied local
optionists who propose to bold a conven
tion in that city, June 16tn by calling
them "demagogues," "windy loafers,"
"‘vermine," and other pet names. Doubt
lees this considerate treatme:it on the
part. of the rauical organ at" the state
capital will consitice the friends of local
option that while the Republican party
may be first on one s•de and then on the
other of the temperance issue, the friends
of prohibition have not alike opinion in
shifting their position as they may find
expedient.
The Williamsport Gazette says that
last year, when the republican state con•
vention nominated Governor Hartranft
for the Presidency it was well understood
to be an expression against a possible
movement against a third term." The
nomination of Hartranft this year, with
a Democratic Lieutenant Governor ready
to take his place, in case he resigns, will
look very much as if the Republicans were
shamming last year isatheir opposition to
a third term. If they withdraw this year
the candidate for Presidency they put up
'last year, and vent their spleen in a reso
lution against a third term, the Presi—
dent will be at liberty to set off their ac
tions against their resolutions, and con •
tinue to flout a set of politicians who so
absurdly stultify themselves.
There was a terrible row . among the .
Philadelphia radicals in the Fifteenth dis
trict on Weduesday,last.as to the choice of
representatives at the state con veLtion.—
Two of the members of the I egislature
who contributed his share last winter to
disgrace themselves and their constit—
uencies at Harrisburg were contestants
fur the position of delegates. 'the police
were called upon to (pen the,disturbance,
and several-arrests were made. The Press
report says that "during the excitement
one of the members of the convention,
for reasons hest known to himself, left
the room coming out of a window."—
These are the sort of people whom Phil—
adelphia will send to assist in framing a
platform and selecting candidates for
which they expect respectful considera—
tion from the people of Pennsylvania.
The centennial era upon which we are
entering is destined to have one happy
effect. It is airing np a feeling of emu=
lation throughout the thirteen original
states in reviving the memories of the
ante-revolutionary period. A recurrence
to the fraternal relations of the colonies
at that thar will not only renew the pa
trioticpride and fervor of an earlier day,
' but will awaken a fresh interest in all the
incidents of the struggle that followed
the declaration -of independence. When
the people of Massachusetts learned at
their centenary celebration the other day
with whatardor their quarrel was espouti
- ed • by the people of Bonth . Citiohtia,Nurth
Carolina, Maryland and Virginia, when
the English government undertook to
vex them with its special displeasure, to
many'of them, doubtless, the old story
was like's new revelation. It is a bapky
thing for the country that the centrn&y
of its independence, of the preceding
battles at Concord and Bunker Hill and
the famous declaration of Mecklenburg,
should follow so hard upon the termina
tion of the late terrible civil struggle.—

HEAD KU KLUX HUNTER.
A special Washington dispatch to the
Baltimore Sun says:
J. G. Hester, who has for some time
held the responsible positions of special
agent of the Department of Justice,
"hood Ka-Klux hunter" and great Amer
ican White League finder,and who was
dismissed from those positions yesterday
says he was dismissed not because he did
anything wrong, but that he informed
the attorney 'general that he intended to
pub'ish a book, entitled "The Wander
mg Jew in America," which is an inside
history of the Credit Mobilier frauds and
other celebrated national frandulet t and
corrupt cases. He also intends to show
up the whole system of manufacturing
Ku Klux outrages. White League mur
ders, etc.. and in fact let daylight into
the whole southern outrage factory, the
head quarters of which is under, if not
in the department of justice. He fancies
that his book will cNate a stir, and if he
publishes all he knows in regard to these
ewes it will, beyond the probability of a
doubt. He says that after he gets his
book out he will remain in Washington
and practice law. He dOesn't like the idea
of returning to the south, being as the
force bill did not pids."
The haste with which the associated
press lispatch announcing Hester's dis
missal was toned down into a "resigna—
tion" gives color to the probability that
the department of justice finds it trouble
some to shake off its scoundrelly assis
tant, whoknows too much for the safety

RADICAL PROHIBITIO2I RING
AROUND.
The Ring organ says first, there is no
"Court House Ring" in the county and
then goes on to name all the inhabitants
01 Montrose and vicinity, except - our
clergymen, to prove it. Almost in the
same breath we are told that if there is
one the people should break it at once,
the last of which is true, and we are glad
to be able to unite with Homer upon
this recommendation, and we think we
can assure him that such a thing will be
realized in November next. The organ
says the Republican masses can nominate
antibody they please, this year, outside
of Montrose, if they will only stick to
the party. We never saw any old politi
cal rat who had grown gray, feeding up
on the people's corn crib, but that when
he saw the ship had sprung a leak and
was going down, he would jump upon
any plank that would as'ist him to secure
his own safety, and when he succeeds in
getting on hoard the new craft, he will
be up and at the "meal chest" again.—
Now we advise that there is but one way
of safety, and that is to drown these old,
depredating, politic/al rats, and then yon
will dispose both of their power for evil
and their bad example before the ris
ing generation. To show what this Ring
will do in desperate straits, we have but
tcrallude to their action last fall. They
transferred the Republican party of this
county into a Prohibition party,and nom
inated legislaturAwho accepted upon that
platform, and iiNgtidition, their, State
Senator pledged himself personally, up
on the question, because these prohibi
tionists were afraid to trust a Radical
hotch-potch platform, and then east his
first vote for a "Stringent license", law
with a Philadelphia and Pittsburg whis
key ring tickler in the form of an un
constitutional "protective tariff" for the
sale of liquor in tli- state. Governor
Hartranft sign?d the bill, after nursing
the prohibitionists for about ,thirty days
with all sorts of blandishmente,finally de
ciding, however, that his re-nomination
would spoil, if it did not have a "pre
scription". of whiskey, for the next fall
campaign. The Radical Prohibition
County Committee assembled this spring,
and immortalized their name by a resolve
against a "third term principle" to stop
the leaks in, this county, but don't say
one word in furtherance of the prohibi
bition swindle, of last ,year, nor declare
against a."second term" of Hartracift, for
betraying the prohibitionists. [f the edi
tor of the Republican bad only been there
to have added his "cock robin" story
about the editor of this paper, which he
applies to everything, and engrafted it
into a resolution, it would have read
somehow in this wise : ..Who repealed
Local Option?" "E. B. Hawley did."
"1 saw it die, with my little eye, I saw it
die!" their hotch-potch; would have
been complete and contained * the same
amount of honest sentiment, that it now
does. Of course the people hear from
the Republican that "E . B. Hawley - is a
rascal," but that does not relieve the
"Court House Ring.". Homer says it is
getting dangerous for the Radical offi
cials to-'"breathe the air of Montrose along
with E. B. Hawley," and he - advises the
Ring to be careful in their nominations.

.The`Alabama legislature, with an, in•
structive and: unwarrantable curiosity.
has set a committee to investigating the
means by which Hon. G. E. Spencer se=
cured his election to the United States
senate, where he expects to disport him—
self until the year 1879. Among the
witnesses lately examined, under oath,was
Hon. J. S. Perrin. himself a lute inember
of the legislature from Wilcox county,
who gives the following details ; "Troops
were retained in Alabama before the
election on a requisition of myself and
others, it baying been understood that
Spencer had arranged for the troops to be
put at the disposal of Mayer and other
revenue officers wherever intimidation
was necessary. These troops, accompan
ied by the United States marshals, who
had fictitious warrants, with citizens'
names prominently displayed and shown
to persons who would inform them, were
paraded in various counties. I shot a
hole in my hat and reported that I had
been attacked by the Klu klux, and I
sent troops to arrest the mythical assail—
ants. I kept the troops as long as I could
use them as a political machine. Our
purpose was to secure the legislature at
all hazards and elect Spencer." Other
witnesses corroborate the ingenuous Per
rin, and swear that money, as well as in—
timidation, was used in order that the
state of Alabama mi g ht be properly rep
resented at Washington. Is it any won—
der that the gorge of Republican states
men who visit the south, rise in view of
these nauseous disclosures ? How fine a
thing it is that communities numbering
millions of souls who take greet trouble
to ascertain the will of the majority and
send representatives to congress to repre
sent it, should find their voices neutralis
ed or overcome by creatures like Spencer,
Patterson, West, Clayton and others, who
represent nothing but the money they
have paid for their ill—gotten honors and
the brute force that has thrust them upon
an unwilling people.

So confident do we feel of the ability of
the democratic party to rame the next
governor of Pennsylvania says the Har
risburg Patriot, that our apprehensions
are turned not so much upon the chance
of the election as upon the choice of the
party. It is an office worthy the ambi
tion of any statesman in the common
wealth. Conspicitious ability in this po
sition has ever been the stepping stone
to political honors. There are a hundred
I)emocrats in Pennsylvania, men of un
sullied character and positive and pro
nounced ability, against whom the repub
licans with their foreordained candidate
could but make the sorriest comparison.
Such a man we want to lift the governor
ship from the dead level of merely toler
able men into the region of statesman
ship...,lVith this view we cordially adopt
and endorse the following' paragraph
from the Mifflin town Democrat and Reg
ister :
"Our convention does not give much
time after it meets for political work, and
we see in that a sign of the dawning o 1
better days and things. We see in it a
purpose to nominate only a man of un
impeachable integrity, and thorough
honesty. Too long have political parties
followed the lead of the men of smirch
ed skirts. We, of course, have our pre
ferences; but we are ready to let these rr
in a moment, if we can have the pleas
ure of raising the name of au honest,
upright and able man, as our standard
bearer in the next gubernatorial cam
paign. There is nothing that can hinder
our success or render our defeat probable,
but mistakes within our own rar.ks, or an
injudicious nomination. We have abun
dant opportunity to avoid the former and
plenty of good material, from which to
choose, so that we may escape the latter.
With a good nominee the battle is half
won ; we want to hear no questions about
the claims of men or localities but rath—
Jr let us know our strongest man and
present him to tre people. Indiana. New
York, Ohio and most of the democratic
states have governors who are the lead
ing men of their respective common•
wealths, and against whom the foul
tongue of aspersion never - dared cast her
baleful influences. Let our convention
give us a Tilden or Rendricks, and suc
cess is assured. L-t us have no bicker
Inge or underhand work in the choice of
the nominee. At certain times mistakes
may be corrected, but now on the eve of
an important political battle, when the
interests of the country and of the party
require a statesman at the helm any in
advertence on the part of the party lead
ers would necessarily prove fatal. We
counsel discretion on the part of those
who represent the Democracy of the
state, if we would succeed. No man is
so necessary to the party that it must dee
troy itself fur his sake. Let any and all
understand that they are only members
and not rulers of our organization, and
that this is a contest of principles, not
for .nen. We'shall take no part in push
lug forward second-rate men fur the po•
sition; but shall labor assiduously for the
nomination of a recognized statesman,
honorable alike for his past and present."
A cued of a nature quite rare in'the
courts, but involving a principle of con—
siderable importance, has just beendecid

is reported at length in the Tinto. The

were swimming with the tide, and land

life-boat put off for the wrick, and also a
life-boat and steamer from Penzance, but
in the fearful sea which raged on Satur

They succeeded, however, up to Saturday

all such acts tend directly to the destruc

To ALL. particularly invalids, spring is a try
ing season. Indications of sickness should at
once be attended to. Fatal diseases may be
caused by allowing the bowels to become eon
dipated, and the system to remain in a disord
ewd until the disorder has time to
divelort itself. An ounce of prevention is worth
a liour.d of cure, is an old and truthful saying.
hetefore,we advise all who are troubled with
the complaints now ery prevalent—headache,
bdigestion, disordered liver, want of appetite,
rausea, or feverish skin, to take, without delay,
Ichecick's Mandrake Pills. We know of no
remedy so harmless and decisive in its action.—
It at once strikes at the root of the disease and
produces a healthy tone to the system. People
never need suffer trom any disease arising from
a; disordered condition of the liver it' they
would take this excellent medicine when they
feel the first indications of the malady. Fami
lies leaving home for the summer months
ihould take three or four boxes at these pills
with them. They have au almost instt.ntane
ous effect. They will relieve the patient of
headache in one or two hours, and will rapidly
'cleanse the liver of surrounding bile, and will
effectually prevent a billions attack. Thby are
sold by all druggists.

their earnestness in the matter. Taking into consid
eration the rant quantity of mdtcino brought conspicu
ously before the public through the flaming advertise
ments in the newspaper columns, with no proof of
merit or pentane vouchers of what it has done, we
shoold be pardoned for manifesting a small degree of
pride in presenting the following treltuonial from Rev.
J. S. DICKERSON. D. D. the popular and ever-genial
pastor of the South Itaptist Church, Boston:
THE TIRED BODY SUES FOR SLEEP
Bascom, March 10.1871.
H. B. Smrins. Esq. :
Dear Sir :—lt is an Much from a sense of duty u of
gratitude that I write to any that your VEGETINE—
even if It in a patent medicine—ban been of great help
to me when nothing else seemed to avail which I could
nobly eon. Either excesnive mental work or unusual
care brings upon me a nervous exhaustion that deeper
ately needs sleep, but as desperately defies IL Night
after night. the poor, tired body sues for sleep until the
day-dawn in welcomed back and we be in our work
tired out with an al moot (mittens chase aher rut. Now
I have found that a little VEGETINE taken Just before
I retire given me sweet and immediate eleep.and with.
out any of the evil efferts of the usual narcotics. I
think two Minn. would tend to make brain workers
d cep. I,t—A little lens work. 2d—A little more VEG
ETINE. This prescription has helped me.
Now I have a particular horror of "patent medicine,"
but I have a greater horror of being afraid to tell the
straight out truth. The VEGETINE has helped me,
and I own It up. Yours Se.,
J. S. DICEADSON.
VALUABLE EVIDENCE
The folilowing unsolicited testimonial from Roy. G.
T. WALKER. TO. D., formerly pastor of Etowdoin
Square Church, and at present settled in Providence,
R. 1., must be esteemed as reliable evidence.
No one should fail to observe that this testimonial
is the result of two years experience with the use of
VEGETINE in the Rev. Mr. Walker's family. who now
pronounces it invaluable:
PIAVIDENCI. R. 1., 164 Transit SL
R Scrverts : Dear Sir—
I feel bound to express with my signature the high
value I place upon your VEPETINE. Ply family have
used it for the last two years. In nervous debility it is
invaluable, and I recommend it to all woo may need an
invitnrating, renovating tonic.
0. T. WALKER.
Formerly Pastor of Ilowdoin Sq. Church Boston.
THE BEST EVIDENCE,
The &Rowing letter from. Rev. E. S. BEST, pastor
M. E. Church. Nantick Moss.' will be read with into ,
err by many physicians. Also those suffering from the
fame diseases as afflicted the eon of the Rev. E. S.
Rest. No person can doubt this testimony. and there
is no doubt about the curative powers of VEGETINE:
Norm, Mass.. Jan 1, 1814.
Ma. ii It. STEVICTS:
Dear 81r—Wo have good reason for r , garding your
VEGETINE. a medicine of the greatest value. We
assured that it has been the means of saving our son's
life. Ile Is now seventeen years of age; for the last
two years he has suffered' from necrosis of his leg,
can sect by serofulous erection,. . and was So far red cad
that nearly all who saw him thought his recovery im
possible. A council of able physicians could give us
but the faintest hope of his ever rallying. two of the
number declaring that he was beyond the rea notfhu
man remedies, that even amputat on could save
him, as he had not vigor enough to endure the opera
tion.. -Just then we commenced giving him VEGE
TINE, and from that time to the, prevent he has been
continuously improving. Ile has lately resumed his
studies .thrown - away crotches and cane, and wa its
about cheerfedly anostrong.
That gh there te 'till some disclutige 'from the open
ing. where the limb was lanced, we have the con
ndence that in a little time ho will be perfectly cored.
• Ile has ashen about three dozen, bottles of VEGE
TINE, but lately uses t medicine- he declares that be
