Greeley miy be comely aud good l ut, like Eve, be is weak. Horace Grki-.lev and Gralz Brown are the Democratic candidates for I'resi detit and Vice President. David Pail Brtow.v, a brilliant Phil adelphia lawyer, died at bis residence on last Thursday morning, aged 78 Years. TllR people en tl.e north shore of Long It-l.turl, New York, were fiiglitened at the ehock of an earthquake on last Friday morning. . . . Greeley and reform say the Democ racy, to prove the sincerity of the cry William MeMulIen, of Philadelphia, was made one of the Vice Presidents of the Baltimore Convention. Tammany rejoiced over the nomina tion of Horace Greeley. The following was inscribed on one of its banners, in New York City, raised in honor of the nomination : J ammany responds to the nomination of the National Conven tion at Baltimore." I.N the great struggle to degrade! and flit-honor labor on the part of the south against the north that sought to lilt np dignify and honor labor. Mr. B u kalt w gave his sympathies to the former. The great free labor Slate of Pennsylva nia will not so forget herself as to put Mr. Buckalew at the head of the State Government. The following proposed amendment to tho Stale Constitution will be subject to the adoption or rejection of the peo ple?, at the October election : Strike out the sixth section f the sixth article of the Constitution, and in sert in lieu thereof the following: "A Slate Treasurer shall be chosen by the qualified electors of the Sta tn, at puch time and for such term of service as. shall be prescribed by law." The Democratic party, in its new Greeley dress, held a meeting at Iiarris burg on last Thursday evenitig, to ratify the Baltimore) nomination. Tho assem bly was small and the parties working the play appeared and acted as if their clothes did not fit them. The audience seemed mors taken op with the Dolly Varden appearance of the meeting than anything else. Election time will teli how the people accept this new collection of diilerent colored political posies. Ex Senator Cowan, Andy Johnson's dear friend, was the big sunflower in the col lection. ' " i The Fall -The People will net Snstaln It. . Horace) Greeley has fallen. lie was nominated at Baltimore last week, by the Democratic National Convention. Of the 733 votes in the convention he received 6S6 It is probably the most remarkable combination of political antagonistic ele ments ever combined. The worlds stands iu wonderment at the spectacle of a political organization,, numbering mil lions, placing a man at its Lead whose life has been chiefly spent in seeking its overthrow. lie was a champion against Democracy when it sought to overthrow American free industry, and when it sought to acquire territory in Mexico and Spain, out of which to create new States whose corner stones should be that "Capital shall own its labor " In former years ho regarded that party with the keenest distrust, aud declared his iuteuticn of never having aught to do with it, as may be learned from the following one of the many paragraphs of a similar character from his pen : "Of that Democracy which robs the effeminate Mexican of half his broad domain, and regards with a covetous eye the last of declining Spaiu's valuable posses -inns which plants its heels on the neck of the abject and powerless negro, and hurls its axe after the flying form of the plundered, homeless, and desolate Indian may it be wr Hen on every grave that I never was a follower, and lived and died in nothing its debtor." What a fall from a high aud lofty pur pose. Since the fall of Eve who was wooed and beguiled into the eating of the fruit of death, not because she wu-h ed to disobey and forsake the path of virtue and enter the way of corruption, but because she wished to please her se ducer, who impressed hei with the belief that there was no death but pleasure in what he proposed th'ere has been no fall like it. The consequences, however, will not be so direfull as those that fol lowed the fall of the mother of our race. The Democratic i nomination for the Presidency, formerly despised aud for bidden fruit to Horace, after being extended to him by the Democ racy his satan and assured by the chiefs of the party that there is no death in it, he takes it, impressed with ihe belief that there is no wrong or death to his former position aud views. He will find his defeat, and in that defeat he will be spared the humiliating sight of seeing his country and party humbled and dis graced. Through his liberal and mngnauimons nature, the Democracy expect to place themselves again in power, and to re trieve for themselves what they lost in their eff.irts to destroy free Government. They see in the man who believes that there is no bell for the punishment of the wicked, who believes in the abolition of all capital punishment laws, and who in the kindness of his heart declared that the confinement of more than a few days of the Chief of the llebel Government in prison, was wronj, aud willingly went his secuiity for his release, is the char acter out of whom they can mould a chief to pave the way for future man agetneut in the Government. Iu these lenient qualities, so seldom met with, and so utterly unfitted for practical operation in the present state of society, the Democracy see just the character to secure for themselves the most advanta geous position, if they can but get Lim placed at the head of the Government With the aid of Republican votes they expect to do it. Place Horace Greeley at the head of the nation, with the Democratic party as his counsel and patron which they would be and bis magnanimity will in duce him to submit to auy and all Gov ernmental proposals that are made that do not actually savor of oppression. He will agree to a Democratic management of the money affairs of the nation, to the payment of the rebel war debt, to dam ages done by the passage of the national armies through the south, and he will agree to the payment for the slaves set free, aud it would not be beyond the magna nimity of his nature to agree to the pay ment of bounty to rebel Eoldiers. This may seem like an impossibility, but cer tainly not more impossible than seemed the nomination of Horace Greeley by the Democracy fur the Presidency, five years ago. The safest and surest way is to elect Grant and keep Greeley "and his millenial notions out of the White House. The people will not sustain the fall. The Baltimore American says that Col. McClure, in a speech made in that city, declared that Le will support Buck alew for Governor. In that declaration read the trade between the leaders of the Liberal Republicans and Democrats : says tbe Liberal to the Democrats, you vote for Greely and I will vote for Buck alew.

Communication. , Tort R,Val, July 13. 1S72, Mr. Editor : There seems to be some doubt as to who the doctorstwere who hatched, or rather nursed a'fter it had Leen batched br others, the printing bill for Juniata county, passed at the last sea sion of the Legislature. One was D. M Crawford, our Senator, who always looks wise but says little, except on occasions when appropriation bil's are to bepasf-ed when he is said to grow eloquent, especially if there has been a little fire to kindle nn bis imagination. Whether i the passage of the printing bill required the aid of eloquent speeches is not known to me. There were none reported in the record that I know of. The other is Dr Jacob V. Mitchell, who bails from the neighboring county of Mifflin, whpm the peoplo of Miffiin and Juniata court ties were unfortunate enough to Lave to misrepresent them in the Legislature. He is a genial fellow, aud can tell some stale yams when around electioneering very well, and hknself smile largely when done, if nobody else sees the joke. He is a smart fellow and an able legis lator. He doses it on the Allopathic plan. He did not succeed, however, as well as his professional brother and co- laborer, in the work of rcfoi'mia the laws to govern his constituents. An ob noxious some call it a worse name "Bridge Bill" had been passed for Mif. flit) county, which this distinguished rep resentative ha'l, as rumor has it, proniis ed the good people of bis county to have repealed. But they were doomed to disappointment. Like Rorher with the printing bill somebody went to see bit aud the bill old ut pass that is it was not repealed, and I see by the papers that the Commissioners have been fined S5 00 a Lead for not building the bridge another allopathic dose. Homeopathy is not popular now-a days, it seems. This much for the parlies who pissed the bill Now cannot some man be selected to represent us who will repeal this bill, and either let the law be as it was in former times, or have the county printing let by contract aud other legal advertisements to bo published where the parties may desire them to be published. Juniata couuty Las been doubly taxed. Enough money Las been squandered in the last ten years together with what the citi zens of Mifflin promised to raise to build a new Court House, and I have uo doubt that if the law' was so changed as to have all the county priming done by contract by lowest bidder that iu the coutse of teu years more Juniata County could boast of a new and comfortable Conrt House, and the Treasury bo not one cent poorer, provided voir citizens would raise the sum promised when the question was before the peoplu Let the people act in this matter. Let our County Conventions take action iu regard to it. It should be. discussed there. It will not do to say, as no doubt some will say, that it will en Jaugi-r the success of Candidates, and that they should not be trammelled by any such questions Such arguments are too thin. The is sue should be fairly brought before the people, and if the majority are willing to be thus taxed, then of course the minor ity must stand it. ARGUS. Scraps From t!ie Pen of Horace Urceley. "Every ono who chooses to live by pugilism or gambling or harlotry, with nearly every keeper of a tippling-house, is politically a" Democrat." Ilirace Greeley. "If there were not a newspaper nor a common school in the country, the Dem ocratic party would be far stronger than it is " Ilornce Greeley. ' The essential articles of the Demo cratic creed are 'love rum and hate niggers.' The less one learns and knows the more certain he is to vote, the regu lar ticket from A to Izzard " H.race Greeley. "We therefore asked our contempo rary to state frankly whether tbe pugil ists, blacklegs, thieves, burglars, keepers of dens of prostitutions, etc. etc., were not almost unanimously Democrats." II rare Greeley ', A purely selfish interest attaches the lewd, ruffianly, criminal and dangsrous classes to the Democratic party." Har are Greeley. Ballou's Magazine for August.

Augustus Hoffman, aged about 13 years, son of Charles Hoffman, in playing about bis father's warehouse, in Peru, this after noon, jumped into a corn bin while the corn was running out through the spout into a car and was drawn under the corn into the spout and smothered. Mr. Hoff man leaped in to rescue Lis son, and shared the fate of Lis boy. Mr. Hoff man was a prominent grain merchant of Peru, and a much esteemed citizen. It is mentioned as a remarkable coin cidence that James Gordon Bennett, who founded the N. Y. Hern Id, and Nathan Randall, who was invited by Mr. Ben nett to unite with him in lbs enterprise as a business manager, were both carried to the tomb on the same day. . 1 Frightful Occukbe.ncr A Stage Couch full if PatitHgert Fall over a Hiyh 'Embankment. Oa July 4th miraculous escape occurred near Jeffer son, Greene county. Pa. The circum stances are as follows : On that day a Urge number of the citizens of Waynes burg bad been in Jefferson attending the dedication of a new college. The stage line of Mr. Edward Sexton, of this place, which runs between Waynesburg and Rice's Landing, was held over by a number of Waynesbargers at Jefferson to await a concert. The concert over, they started for home in high spirits. Between ten and eleven o'clock, the night being quite dark, in rounding a place called Stony Point, about a mile and a half from Jefferson, the coach' upset, precipitating horses, passengers, and driver down rugged embankment of one Lundred and sixty feet. The coach turned over six or eight times and then lodged against a small tree. Of tbe nine passengers in the inside of tbe coach none were seriously injured. A few cuts and bruises were the only mishaps. A son of Mr Sexton, who was riding with the driver, managed to jump off before the coach was overturn ed, aud running back to Jefferson, he alarmed the town. Lights were procur ed, and medical aid summoned The driver was found at the foot of the em bankment, having rolled the entire dis tance. He was slightly injured. One horse was killed octiight. and two others slightly injured, while the fourth one es caped uninjured. Terrible Tragedy. A Man Shoot His W ife and then Shoots Himself The quiet village of Stouchsbnrg was last week tbe scene of a terrible occur rence which has cast a gloom of sadness over tbe whole commuuity. Mr. George Reed, a resideut of the place, Lad for some time been deserted 'by Lis wile ou account of his intemperate habits On the 4th of July, having been to Read ing, and having become intoxicated, he, on his return home, abused his wife sit tinr in the door of her brother's house. with whom she had sought shelter and protection. Ho immediately accosted her, and asked her if she would not again live with him. She replied in the negative and rose to go into the Lon3e, when ho drew a pistol and fired. See ing his wife falling and supposing he bad killed her he hastily retreated up the street before he could bs arrestod. He kept himself secreted in the neighborhood until Saturday morning, when he was found a corpse on the back poarch of his sister s residence, a short distance from town. It is supposod be came to her house during the night and goaded by conscience, well filled with remorse ou account of his couduct. he placed tbe pistol to his head aud thus put an end to his own life. Fortunately the wife of the stiicido was not seriously injured The ball passed through Iter arm inflict ing a painful, but not a fatal wound. Harriihurg Tihsraph. Dastardly Murder. Memphis, July 13. Last evening wbile a party of boys were bathing iu the river, below the foot of Beale street, private watchman named Sturgeon. employed to take charge of some fl.it boats near at hand, came out on the roof of his dwelling, armed with a musket. and followed by his wife, who was arm ed with a revolver- After threatening the boys for bathing there, Sturgeon took deliberate aim at one of them, named John Murphy, who was in the water, and fired, three slugs striking him inbe bead, killing him instantly. Immediately after shooting. Sturgeon jumped into a skiff and made his escape, His wife was arrested and lodged in the station house. They came here recently from St. Louis and are represented as bad characters. A coroner's jury ren dered a verdict of wilful murder against Sturgeon. Disastrous Conflagration ani Loss of Life. Detroit, July 13. A disastrous fire occurred at Alpena, Mich., last night About twenty-five buildings were des troyed, including four hotels. TLe loss es aggregate SI 50,000. The fire was one of the 'most disas trous. Being entirely a lumber manu factnring place the buildings were nat urally built all of frame, and, although the town has a steam fire engine, all efforts to stay the progress of the flames were unavailing. Mrs Westbrook perished in the street in front of her store. George, her son, while endeavoring to save his mother, perished in the flames. The dead bod ies of two men were found in the ruins to-day. A sailor named Kelly and G. R. Westly were badly injured. The losses, as far as ascertained, foot up $130,000. Four men perished, in the fire and two are fatally injured. TLe total amount of insurance is $100,000. The most popular man in Vienna just now is a Turkish magnate called Kali- pacha.

It is saitl to b". a eurion fact tint while foxes, cranes and squirrels are abund ant on the Indiana ?id of the Ohio river, they are never seen on the Ken tucky side ; and strange enough, the gray squirrel, to f.iund anywhere on the Kentucky side, is rarely or never seen on the Indiana shore. Washington has a handsome hermit of some forty years, named John Bnrch, who has not It ft his own house and yard for twenty years, so intently has he de voted bis time to the attempt to invent perpetual motion. The outer world is all a blank to bim. He does not know any thing about politics or current news, the telegraph or the railroad. The Indians have learned the "emo tional insanity" dodge. Oue James Lane, living near Trinity Centre, Cali fornia, was shot recently by a treacher nus savage who had gained his confidence and, upon demanding of the Indian tbe cause for his act, the latter b ounded off with the riflo, crying out. "Me heap cra zy I Me too much crazy !" A party of United States Cavalry in Arizona, started from their post in pur suit of four Indian horse thieves. They rode 120 miles in two days, captured and shot the thieves, and returned with the trophies of their victory, reaching the post on the fifth day after starting. Two of tbe men were wonnded in the skir mish, and all the horses were nearly dead with fatigue. An Indian in Detroit visited an ice cream saloon. The Free Press says : "The first taste set all bid teeth jumping, and the next one satisfied him that some one had'put up a job on him lie hand ed it to the boy with instructions to warm it up. The boy melted it on the stove, and the Lndian siezsd the disb and drank the the sweet milk at one gulp and then licked the dish." Thb Stokes trial was concluded on the morning of the 14th and went to tLe jury at 11 o'clock on that morning, under the following points of the Jndge : That if tLe jury believed that Stokes went to that hotel with a premeditated design to kill, then they should find him guilty of murder in the first degree. If they be lieved the meeting was accidental, and that Stokes fired in the heat of passion, then they should find Lim guilty of man slaughter in the third degree. And, lastly, if they believed he fired in self defense, then they should acquit him of the charge. All doubts belong to the prisoner. Gentlemen, give Lim every benefit of them The jury failed to agree and were dis charged on the 15th. Eight were for murder in the first degree and"fourfor manslaughter in the third degree. ' Pennsylvania Reserves to Receive Bounty. Washington, July 12. In tLe mat ter of tLe decision of the Second Aud itor, Hon. E B French refused to al low the claims of the members of the regimeuts of the Pennsylvania lleserves for the $100 bounty under tbe provis ions of tbe act of Congress of April 22. 1872, stating that the act referred to ap plied only to men who were enrolled in the United States service prior to July 22, 1861- An appeal was made from this deci siou to tbe Second Controller, Hon. J. M. Broadhead, who, on a careful ex amination into the facts, reversed the de cision of the Second Auditor, and has decided that, as the regimeuts of the Pennsylvania Reserves were enlisteued in the State service prior to July '22, 1831, and were mustered into the United States service prior to August 6, 1861, bounty will be allowed and paid to men enlisting in the Pennsylvania Reserve regiments.
