" ' And this outburst," added Dr. Elder, " was punctuated with alternate sobs and swearing. I have given you one of the many causes, gentlemen, that have con firmed me in my abolitionism." It is impossible to convey an idea of tbe manner iu which Dr. Elder told this incident, or tbe effect produced upon the Southern men around him. They listen ed with profound and breathless interest, and more than one with a pale cheek and moistened eye; and though they did not say tliey agreed with the eloquent Doc tor, I saw that they respected him for tbe candor and warmth with which be had replied to their equally candid question Protection. If Jnniata county were the posses eor of manufacturing establishments of tbe magnitude of those located abont Harrisburg, Johnstown, or Danville, not a pound of the produce raised in the county would be taken outside of the county, all would be consumed at home, and would command better prices than it does by sending it to outside markets. Labor would command double its present rates, and property would bring much better prices, and a high prosperity gen erally would attend the community. Who would not be a protectionist f Hom Henrt Wilson, of Massachu ctts, last week was re-elected to the United $ttM Senile. Baa Dosing) Grant and Sumner. The attitude of the Republican party on the acquisition of Fan Domingo baa been the source of infinite delight to the leaders of the Democracy. In the position taken by Mr. Sumner against President Grant's recomtneudation of the annexation of that Island, they exultant ly express the belief that a division has been created in the Republican party that cannot be healed. They say it presages the dismemberment of the party. If Sen ator Sumner and President Grant, were men of a different cast of mind, if they were leaders of faction, given to the arts of a low order of statesmen, then indeed, would the danger be great j but they be long not to that order. They may differ as did President Lincoln and Sumner be fore, and yet remain earnest friends and the hearty advocates of the perpetuity of the political organisation that saved free government from the clutches of Southern despotism, and made them the prominent and great men that they are. We append an account from Mr. Sum ner's pen of the courtesy and friendship that existed between the Senator and President Lincoln, during tbe time that Mr. Sumner opposed some of President Lincolu's wise schemes. Mr Sumner says: 'That which the country knows tbe least about, my constant intimacy with Mr. Lincoln, and constant pressiug upon hitn of emancipation as tbe means to be used in crushing the rebellion.. I did not take it then as a moral question, for whatever m ly be said of me 1 have al ways aimed to be eminently practical, and to weigh carefully all that I say. I nrged emancipation the day after the battle of Pull Run, aud ever after war! . Mr. Lincoln hes.btted from th f' in- trritr, of which the public knows b'lt lit tle, and which was manifest in small and (rreat tilings. I was always honest and very plain ) with Mr. Lincoln, so much so that some- times he was almost angery with me, but : be never allowed difference of opinion or r I . .. .. i :!-!! j t : frankness to iuterrupt our familiar and I i ,:.i .j I There was a beautiful illustration of ' this, in February. I think, the last week f tae last session, when I defeated Mr. Lincoln's pet project of admitting Louis- ' iana. aud my friends all told me I had ade ff; "" "' I'rcsid'-nt i had set his heart on this scheme. But . my convictions of fidelity to ihe best in- luutry, as I viewed the i terests of the country . , , . , me ' no alternative. I at jlst, after earnest conversation with Mr. Lincoln, told him I would not oppose his Louisiana plan, provided he would require necro suffrage iu all the other otates, be- . b . e . "eGr0 8lfraS ' living that L t , bu, misiana could not stand ut that the influent wave from tbe other States would roll over her and she be compelled into the same de sired condition. But Mr. Lincoln did I .. U A T J..f.4 , , - .1 i r on the contary, on the day ot maugura tion ball I received an autograph note from Mr. Lincoln inviting me to attend the ball, and saying that if I would go he WOu!J Call,ff me in h.ie Wn on bis way thither, and you shall be party .. j intended tn fo. and for the four veara I had not been to any parly or entertainment, but, in the circutnt-tauces, concluded to accept i the invitation. At the proper time the carriage came to my door. I found Mr. and Airs. Lin coln, and Mr. Colfax within, and I took the fourth and remaining seat. I took Mrs. Lincoln on my arm to the dias or platform, and then told Mr. Lincoln I would leave them and mingle with tbe throng, as the crowd wanted to look at him (Mr. Lincoln); but be insisted that I should sit with him, and seemed to take this very conspicuous way of assuring the Senators, Representatives, and peo ple present that he still claimed inc as a friend, and that a conscientious discharge of what I thought my duty, although di reetly opposed to what might be his fav orite projects, would not sever or weaken our intercourse. This emphatic endorse ment made no little sensat ion at tbe time. At the proper hour I took Mrs. Lincoln to t'ie supper. This incident was certainly compli mentary and honorable to both parties, and it is certainly suggestive in the pres ent relations between the Senator and the President The War iu France. A week ago intelligences from the Old" informed the New World that all the French armies had again been defea ted. excepting the one under Bonrbaki, who, it was said, had gained some advan tage over the opposing German Comman der, General Von Werder. Bourbak; was operating southeast of Paris, evi dently with the intention of moving northward -to break tbe German line of communication and supplies with the "Fatherland." But a great battle that was fought on the 17th, inst., has entire ly changed the face of affairs in the de partment of the East. Bonrbaki was defeated and compelled to retreat with the loss of nearly 8,000 troops. Prince FredericCharles captured 22,000 nu woun ded prisoners in tbe battle about Le-Mans On the 19th the French made a sorte from Paris in force. They numbered one hundred thousand. They were beaten back with a loss of 15,000. Tub Legislature has elected General Frank Blair a L'nitid States Senator.

A Herrtbte Harder Recited TV Condett ad i Ms Cell Awaiting Death Ts-mor-rsvHls Appearance aad Conduct The L&gine of Heath Correspondence of tbe Pittsburg Oaietts Lima, 0 , Jan. IS, 1371. Through the courtesy of Sheriff Col bath, of Lima, Allen county, Ohio, I was permitted to visit Andrew 13rentlinger, who is under sentence of death for the murder of his wife in Shawnee township, about nine miles from tbis place. The minder was committed on the t9th of October last, at his residence outside of tbe log cabin, aud is almost isolated, eur rouuded by woods, on other residence nearer than a mile, and for fiendish atro city and cold blooded butchery, it has not its parallel in the annals of crime. A HORRIBLE DBED. It appears th at he and bis wife had not been living very peaceably together, and parted at one time, but got together again sometime since, but lived no better than before. Prentlioger was jealous of some of his neighbors who visited his house, and be thought they were crimi nally intimate with his wife. On Mou day afternoon about two o'clock, on the 29: h of October, he got into a quarrel with his wife ia front of his house, when he tripped her and struck her on the head, knocking her down. He then turned her over and stabbed her several times with a small knife, from the effects of which she fainted, he supposing she was dead lie then went to tbe stable and sa idled his horse aud was ready to escape, wheti be saw her rise on her knees with bands clasped in tbe attitude of prayer, calling to her little girl for water. lie prohibited the child from getting water aud theu told iter to go in ... ... .......... t"e nouse and bring to Uira his dirk auite. She refused to do this at first, but he threatened to kill her also and she fiually J got it for him, and with this he commenced j uis ne,li"u wor!t- Approaching his wife I be said. "G I l n you, have you not got enough yet." aud plunged the dirk in her breast and abdomen six or seven times in juccpps on. the blood spurting in his face ; aud strange to relate, she ' lived half au hour afterwards, feebly ut-l j terine her prayers till death released her g her prayers from her sufferings. THE CONCEALMENT. He then got on his horse and rode two miles to where his, son-in-law lived, aud to his two sous, nine and fifteen miles dis tauce, where they were working, and in formed them what he had done and di reeled them to go home and told them how and where to bury the body, saying that if they refused or told of the mur der he would kill them. The son in-law, iu the meantime, sent to the house and discovered tbe body weltering in blood aud placed a wagon bed over it till the shades of night set iu and to await the arrival of his sons. About two o'clock in the morning they commenced to dig a grave for her about thirty steps from the house, some two feet deep. They placed the body on a door and carried it to the grave and tumbled it, face downwards, and in the same clothes in which tbe was murdered, and all covered and stuck to gether with clotted blood. They then covered her up and ploughed, har rowed and sowed grain over the ground to conceal the place. ML'KUKR WILL OCT. It is sail that "murder will out," and it is my impression that if it had not been for the following accident it would still have remained a mystery as to the disposal of the wif,;. The night follow ing the interment of the body the family ! were aroused from their slumbers by the howling of a dog over the corpse, which was drawn there by the shallowness of the grave, and which so horrified the per sons in the bouse that they remained in intense agony during the entire night. As soon as day made its appearance tbey at once proceeded to give the information which caused the arrest and conviction of Brentlinger. The case was immedi ately laid before the Grand Jury and a bill was brought against him of murder in the first degree. He was ably defend ed by two of the best lawyers in the State, who raised the plea of insanity, but tbe case was to palpable and the ver dict of tbe jury was "murder in tbe first degree," and the Judge sentenced him to be hung on Friday, January 2Sth, be tween tbe hours of nine and one. THE CONDEMNED. Brentlinger is a man of forbidding ap pearance, and has not borne a very good character heretofoi e, though, to my sur prise, I was informed that he was a mem ber of tbe M. . Church, and held family worship ou the morning of the murder. The clergymen of the several churches have, for some unexplained reason, never visited him, either before or after the trial, excepting me .Minister ot me English xutneran vuurcn, wno uasnecn in almost constant attendance upon him It is sur mised that prisoner caused the death of his wife by gross cruelty, and probably by violence, but as to the correctness of that story I am unable to say. It is the determined opinion, however, that such is the case. PEtf PICTURE. He stands about five feet six inches high, is fifty two years of age, was born in Licking county, Ohio, is of dark com plexion aud greyish eyes, deep set, low forehead, but broad at the base, is ignor ant and superstitious, and cannot read or write. Phrenologically speaking, the an imal largely predominates over the re flective aud thinking faculties. His de meanor in jail has sometimes amounted to levity. He does not appear to realize the awful position in which he stands He often imagines and says that it is very hard that his wife should appear to him in bis cell at night and plead with him that he should see their children pro perly cared for. He has eight children. five of them by his first wife. Three of tbem are quite young, and these his spltitual adviser has kindly taken charge of and placed them already in one of our charitable institutions, where they will secure a Christian education, and be well cared for. A great deal might be said as to his imprisonment, but as he is so igno rant, I do not think it would be of any interest to your readers to relate his ev ery day life. TUB SCAFFOLD. The execution will take pluce iu the yard of the jail on Friday in persuance to sentence. Workmen are already en gaged in erecting the scaffold. The ex ecution will be strictly private, none ex cepting the officials and his spiritual ad viser, in accordance with the laws of tbe State will be aduiitel to the yard. I have been informed that the sheriff had ordered a number of muskets from Col umbus, he being apprehensive of some difficulty arising from parties endeavor ing to force themselves iu the jail yard to witness the execution, but after con sultation with the Adjutant of tbe State, he has determined to rely ou the citizens of the town for support. Telegraph to the Pittsburg Giiette. CoLCMBi'S, O., January 18. Andrew Brentlinger, who is sentenced to be hung in Allen county next Friday, and whose sentence tbe Governor has comranted for eieven weeks, telegraphed to-day to Gov ernor Hayes, through the sheriff, that he desired to be- hanged on next Friday, according to the original sentence. Ma. Robcht Bo.wtH, of New York appears to be detrniiued to keep ahead iu the fast horse line. It is well known that he never races ; his pride is to pos sess the fastest horses in the world, and at present he enjoys this celebrity. So far "Pexter" stands first; but be has other horses coming on which it is be lieved will equal hitn in speed if not sur pass him. Pocobontas will hardly do this, though an animal of great speed and of surpassing beauty. But there is "Joe Elliott," who is rrgaided as oue of j l''e greatest trotters for his years that has ever appeared. But Mr. Bonner has an other, aud one in which he has still gi eater confidence ; it is "Startle, a three year old, and it is said by the best judges to be the most promising animal of his age ever "trotted out." He is a brother to Dexter, and cau now make his mile iu 2.25. His trainer says of him : "He is the world's wonder and no mistake." But right on the heels of this we have a Kentucky three-year old, who is claimed to be an equal world's wonder. He is a son of the great Leamington, aud his name is "Longfellow." One who is familiar with all his good quali ties and gives a long description of tbem says : "It is my opinion that Longfellow is the best race-horse in America, if not in the world, and is the best foal in tbis century." So it is seen that horse flesh has by no means degenerated in tbe United States, whatever, it may be just now in Paris. Germantoicn Telegraph. m The Fenian or Irish Exiles. Some days ago, O' Donovan, Barra, Charles Underwood, O'Connell, Captain McClure, John Deroy. and Henry Mul lady, Irish exiles, arrived iu New York. Extensive preparations are being made in that city to honor them and others, who will arrive there during the week, with a public reception and procession. The Irish Republican Association of Pennsylvania also held a meeting a day or two ago in Philadelphia, and proffered tbem a kindly reception in the city of "Brotherly love." The time for the hon ors has uetbeen fixed. A resolution was passed inviting all civic. "State, and National Associations, the Governor, the Mayor, City Councils, the State Military the Fire Association, Beneficial Societies 4c c, to take part in the proceedings." The reception will take place at Inde pendence Hall. A GRfcAT Paper. That sagacious and most trustworthy journal, the North American, is doing yeoman's services in the cause of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia and tbe country at large for whatever benefits Philadelphia serves the nation. Mr. McMicheal, in his excellent paper, is forever proclaiming the resources and power of our city and State, and, like the statesman that he is, showing our merchants and manufacturers how to make the best use of their ever present opportunities. The Nortk American is, as it well deserves to be, a great stimulus a most wholesome influence in the com munity.

Tbe " Besieged Resident " of the Lon don Daily iVetM in Paris, in order to form an opinion as to the condition of the poorer classes, went into some of tbe slums in tbe neighborhood of tbe Boulevard de Clichy. His report is as follows : Tbe distress is terrible. Women and chiKlren, half starved ; were seated at their door-steps, with hardly clothes to cover them decently. They said that, as they had neither firewood uor coke, they were warmer out of doors than indoors. Many of the National Guards, instead of bringing their money home to their fam ilies, speud it in drink ; aud there are many families, composed entirely of wo men and children, who, iu this land ot bureaucracy, and apparently Iwi to starve while it is decided to what caie'ory they belong.
