Their Record Condemns Them.
It required two weeks of time for tin
editors of the Republican to produce an
newer to our article in regard to their
false charges. They replied in last
week's paper, under the heading of
"Heavy Artillery." The article does
not meet the questions, namely : did we
receive Judge Pomeroy's card from the
bauds of Col. Robinson ? Were we in
structed to hand it to the Republican by
the gentleman who gave us the card ?
Did we say in an article in the SeviIXEL
that Col. Robinson wtote the card I To
all of these points we have answered in
the negative, or in other words, said, no.
They have plainly charged us with false
hood for thus answering, yet they have
not produced a single item of evidence to
sustain themselves iu the charges They
have no case, as a lawyer would say, and
the briefless lawyer of the corps of the
Republican concern ought to know bet
ter than to allow himself to be drifted
into such au unenviable position Of
course the other creatures that belong to
the paper, who have not mental capacity
to distinguish a good case from a bad one,
and who are blockheads iu everything
except in conceit, low cunning, political
tricks, and unscrupiileus work, ar not
responsible, only so far as it becomes
necessary to hold such vicious characters
in check.
Their article no more proves their
charges to be correct, than did the lan
guge of the fallen woman, w hom officers
Ker'iin and Robinson took to prison one
morning during court week, prove her to
be a modest, moral and virtuous woman.
The conduct and language of the woman
was the best evidencs that could be pro
duced that she was anything and every'
thing but a modest, moral aud viituous
woman ; so their article on " Heavy Ar
tiilery" is the beet evidence that can be
produced lhat the charges they made are
not true. No intelligent man can be de
ceived by such trash. It was not writ
ten for intelligent people It was in
tended for blockheads and blackguards.

i it l .i j a. .i !
shall choose a third To this committee !
of three, and as many spectators as may
wish to be present, we will state the
name of the gentleman who gave ns
Judge Pomeroy's card. He is not a
County Commissioner, nnder the lash of
a clique master. He is a man who has
not debauched his manhood. If be tells I
tLa committee that Le instructed us to
. band the card in question Judge Pome
roy's to the Republican, we will pre1
geut to that office one hundred dollars.
On the point as to who wrote the card,
we will be equally plain. We say that
we nowhere declared that Col. Robinson
wrote it. Our file is opn to the Mine
committee, or any other chosen in the
pain.- manner. If they find in any one
! of llie articles bearing on these queetion",
! the statement that Col. Robinson wrote
: j Judge Pomeroy's card, we will present
j that office two hundred dollars. We ask
j no forfeit of them ; all that we atk is that
; ihey save themselves from the position
which they maliciously attempted to
place us in.
But in tltir List they intimated that
we were parpiuionious. Certainly there
is no Mint and closeness about our offer
It is all in their favor. If they can prove
their charges they get three hundred
ilollais, and relieve themselves from the
odious position of repeatedly telling what
j wasn't true. As to the parsimony of our
conduct in general, we may a Id that so
1 far it has not been of that character that
jn(juceg men (, purchase property on
j Jt pay fr ;t ad
not pay the wages due hired men. Their

The article on ' Heavy Artillery" has
a sentence or t o relative to the comma
nications over the signature of Barton
Speak. To that we say that if Barton
Speak should deem it proper to make the
Republican corps the subject to write on,
their characters will be truthfully delin
eated They also refer to communica
tious on the subjeit of the county print
ing. Their action on this question is to
a certain extent known throughout the
county.
If there is any honor left among the
people of Juniata, it will vindicate itself
at the proper time, through the proper
channel, aud lift the Commissioners' of
fice out of the slough in which it now
flounders.
They insiiuiate that our intercourse
with the State Centnl Committee is not
what it should be, and that we are not
supporting the ticket as we should do.
We do nat recognize their right to ques
tion the motives for what we have done,
or w hat we may do. Their conduct for
years has been such that tiiey are entire-
tlie late court, whose course had been so
defective iu point as to what was proper,
that when she came to denounce others
she was ruled out entirely and sent to
prison, these men have the meanness to
question the political motives aud actions
of others, when the influence of their
owu treachery to the Republican party
has not yet spent its force. It is just
now two years since these same fellows
were, as they are now, manipulated by
Dr. Crawford to espouse his cause for
the State Senate. Yliey helped to elect
him to that place. The influence of his
election against the Republican party has
not yet spent its force. His greatest
thrust is yet to come, for next winter he
will vote for the election of a Democratic
United States Senator.
We do not take the space now to look
at the Juukin Giaham campaign, aud
other pages of their record Their record
is nothing but a series of condemnations
of themselves.
Craut iu the Highest Degree of Statesman
ship. Grant has wou another victory the
greatest victory of the age. Not a vie
tory on the bloody field of war, but a
victory in the peaceful councils of Na
tions. The Geneva Board of Arbitra
tion has awarded to the United States
fifteen mill ion five hundred thousand dol
lars, as a payment for damages done to
American vessels by Rebel Ships of war
that had been fostered or cared for by
England.
A President who can thus inaugurate
a policy for the peaceful settlement of
matters in dispute between Nations, be
comes a statesman of the first and high
est degree. Can it be possible t hat Grant,
with all the greatuei-8 that surrounds him
as a soldier, is also to step away in ad
vance of all statesmen aud become the
instrument through which Nation's will
be iifte(1 to tliat L;gu pla;u of iu,erconri!e
with each other in which all differences
will be settled by arbitral ion or National
courts, as differences and disputes be
tween individuals are settled by arbitra
tion or Courts of Justice. Mau caunot

Wreeley from a Foreign SUafnoinL
In cases of doubt and disputation the
evidence and opinion of those uninterest
ed is taken as the more just, more reason
able and more reliable. To decide and
ward the prizea of the world, such ref
erees are chosen as are affiliated in no
manner to any of the contestants, and in
this way justice is done to those who
possess genius and have acquired genuine
merit. Safely, then, in this struggle for
President may we look abroad and with
benefit cousult the views of those across
the water, regarding the respective candi
dates. The London Time, in its issue of eev
eral d.iys ago, speaking of Horace Gree
ley, tells us that " his ra.-hness of judg
ment and looseness of speech are noto
rious fiom end to erul of the Union."
His honesty for years has been a by
word, but that he is a sincere straight
forward man no person pretcuds to allege.
His eleciion would surrender the negro
to the South again, would revive that 4d
compact and condense systt m of wrong
the elate dynasty would restore to
the balls of Congiess the foremost of
those who sought to disturb our peace
and government, and. in short, endanger
all that was accomplished by the war;
cause the thousands of patriots to have
died for nothing, made their blood to have
been shed and their homes to have been
desolated for only the dream of uational
tranquility anil repose. He certainly
does possps8 some admirable faculties and
some qualities of sterliug worth ; but to
exert them properly, beneficially and ef
fectively they niuct be employed in a
sphere far different from that to w hich he
aspires. Grant, on the other hand, in
his career as President, has not been free
from mistakes. The humanity of his
nature has been shown in a few instances ;
yet those who opposed him most bitterly
iu 'C8 such men as Pouglass, Lloyd
Garrison and Wendell Phillips are will
ing that he should be elected rather than
accept a man so much more unfit and
objectionable. From such reasons this
English journal, embodying the opinion
of millions of English speaking people,
seems to argue ; aud being a party un
interested and unconcerned, its voice in
favor of the man who trades not priuci
pies for success, we deem of some strength
aud importance

A Theory C'oneerninir Their Generation
A Kind of Cotton Impervious to the Pest,
A correspondent of the Memphis Aca
Imt'le, writing from Natchez, leun , un
der date of September 1, says :
The worm is making sad havoc with,
the cotton, and in many places they will
strip the stock for acres in twenty four
hours time. Many planteis are very
gloomy and anticipate hard times but the
majority have p'anted with their own
capital, aud their loss will not be so op
pressing as if they had received heavy
advances from the city merchants. The
worm does not seem confined to any par
ticular locality below Vicksbnrg, but
seema general. As there was but little
annoyance from womis before the war.
11 seems to puzzle all w;tli whom 1 have
conversed on the snljcc', what is the
cause, and where does the worms origi
nate By careful study and stall-lies
I find that the worm most generally ori
ginates upon plantations that have been
lertilized with the cotton seed, this is
to a great extent proven by the fact that
the moili first appears upon the Lower
Mississippi or Louisiana plantations.
where they fertilize extensively wi'h the
cotton seed, and advances Northward un
til the u u fertilized sections are reached.
when they disappear or do no iujiuy. ' I
think the trouble is caused by the im
mense amount of oil that the seed con
tains, which alone is one reason why seed
should not be used as fertilizer, until it
is thoroughly decomposed above ground
This plague increases every 3"ear, aud
destroys from twenty five to sixty per
cent, of the great crops of the South.
By a caieful study and close observation.
I have discovered a peculiar kind of cot
ton, that is impervious to worms. They
will strip all around it and never touch
it. The seed and general appearance of
of the stalk resembles the Sea Island,
bot it is pronounced by experts not Sea
Island. The staple is fully an inch and
a quarter long, and is very soft and silk
eu, with a bright glossy appearauce.
The leaf is like gum aud the stalk is a
dark purple. It blooms like ordinary
cotton The lint strips freely from the
seed and completely and the seed is rath
er small aud black.

A terrible accident occurred yasterday
morning at the American Iron Works of
Messrs. Jones & Laaghlm. at xtrowns-
town, resulting in the almost instant
death of a boy named Louis Hoopy.
The boy was about thirteen years ot
age and had been employed temporarily
at the works ia the place of his brother.
who had disabled hiowelf by burning hi
hand He had been at woik for some
time yesterday morning, when, about
five o'clock, he stooped down in front of
he rolls. Just as he did so, a bar of
red hot iron came through the rolls. The
end struck him on the leg and instantly
before he could get out of the way. or
even realize his danger, the hot iron had
been rnn completely through his thigh
As speedily as possible he was rescued
from his dreadful position. The main
artery of the leg was severed and the
blood was flowing in a torrent, bnt he
was alive when removed. He was car
ried to bis home near the works, and
medical attendance summoned. Of
course it was impossible to save his life,
but he lived some fifteen minutes after
the accidrnt, wheu death relieved him.
Coroner West was notified and held an
inquest- A verdict of accidental death
was rendered.
The family of the unfortunate boy
seem to have been remarkably uuforiu
nate. The father was engaged at the
works as a watchman, and a!out one
mouth ago met with an accident which
fractured one leg. Latt week one of his
children fell from a chair and broke its
arm. An older son, who worked at the
rolls, atwwhich lhe accident occurred yes
terday, was so seriously hurt that his
brother Louis had to go to work for him,
and iu doing so be met with a horrible
death as described above. Pit tlurg

Two Men Shot by a Crazy Negro in Wheat-
laud, Mercer touuty.
The Sharpsville A'h'crti-er gives the
particulars of an affair which created
much excitemeut in Wheatland, Mercer
county, on Saturday night week Mr.
J. Sh ffuer, manager of the firm of Wood,
Son & Co., in that place, has a fine gar
den attached, to his house, through which
runs a path to a pump, where the fur-
naremen and employees of the rolling
mill are in the habit of getting their
driuking water Ou each side of the
path, or walk, there is a tow of peach
trees.
Shaffuer had in his employ a negro
named Harvey Hallow, said to be half
witted or crazy, w ho:e time was occupied
in doing odd chorea around the house.
Shaffuer, it is reported, gave Hallow in
structions to shoot - any oue who might
be seen taking peaches from the trees
Arming himself with a shot gun, the nu
gro stood guard. Shortly before twelve
o'clock Sunday night, Hugh Cannon, au
employee of the rolling m il, went for a
pail of water, and stopped ou the way
t i ,i c j ii- . i
lor peaches, when the negro fired, infrct t
- . i
S a H12111 nuuiiii. i
Soon after. Michael Callahan, a fur i
naceman, went for water, stopped at one
of the peach trees and commenced to
shake it for the purpose of getting ripe
peaches Hallow immediately fired at
Callahan, the charge taking effect in the
abdomen of the latter and wounding him
eo seriously that he will probably die
The news of the affair spread rapidly
and a large mob was soon collected around
Shafiuer's residence, threatening to lynch
both him and the negro. The interfe
rence of prominent citizens, however,
prevented violence. Shaffuer and Hal
low were arrested Monday morning and
taken tJ Mercer where they are now
awaiting trial.

Safegnards Against Crime Co-operation
of Citizens with the Authorities-Indignation
Meeting in Chicago.
Chicago, Sept 13. A very large and
respectable meeting of citizens was held
in the hall of the Board of Trade, last
evening, to consider the best means of
aiding the officers of the law in bringing
murderers to speedy trial conviction and
punishment. Charles Reed, State Attor
ney, showed that officers of the law were
embarrassed in the performance of their
duties, and that criminals sometimes were
enabled to escape punishment through
the disinclination of business men and
and the better class of citizens general iy
to do jury duty, and nrged upon this
class of citizens the importance of doing
their duty in this respect. He also con
demned the law which allows the read
ing of a case in the newspapers to be an
objectiou to a man serving on the jury in
criminal cases, and the practice of the
Supreme Court judges in granting writs
of supcrcedeas in criminal cases during
vacation and allowing the hearing to be
postpoued for mouths until the regular
term is held. Resolutions were adopted
for the appointment of a committee of
twenty five to act in conjunction with
the officers of the law in causing the de
tection and the arrest of murderers and
bringing of them te speedy trial and
prompt punishment. The meeting was
very orderly throughout and a deep feel
ing was manifested
Judge Dowling of New York said, in
e recent case, that a ereat mistake per-
vadee the Dul lic mind in regard to iW.
that by law, they are as much a . man s
property as his horse, or an.vthiug else
ne ownes; and. more-over.that in case of
killing a dog, unless in self protection,
the party culd be made to pay the val
ne of the dog the same as though it were
a horoe.
