Escaped Jail.
This moruing, the jailor discovered
that one of his birds had Down, and
nothing was left to tell of his Might
but the rags that hung on the stone
wall. In a short period of time the
news spread over the town, and a large
number of persons visited the jail to
see where he got out. Hie prisoner
was placed in the lower cell on the
south side of the jail, and made his
escape from the cell at the southwest
corner. He had been provided with
two sizes of augers and a saw, of some
description, with these tools he made
a hole through the floor about
eighteen inches square, cutting
through a sill ten inches or more in
depth. This aperture allowed him to
reach the ground, about live feet below
the flour. After reaching the ground
he pried out a stone from the wall and
gained the jail yard, llavlug pro
vided himself with a rope, made from
the sheets of his bed, he attached a
stone to the rope and cast it over the
wall, where it caught on the outer
coping thus holding the rope so that
he was enabled to scale the wall, and
make good his escape. The marks of
the auger and saw were not fresh
showing that lie had made prepara
tions for his escape for some time
The namo of the recent prisoner is
Edward Garmerly, and he w as sen
teneed by the court, yesterday, to two
years at hard labor in the Western
Penitentiary for the seduction of a
young woman at St. Mary's about a
year ago. We would suggest In this
connection that the floor of the cell
from which Gannerly escajied, is in
very bad condition, and might be all
taken up by a strong man without the
aid of any tools whatever. We might
make some more suggestions but for
bear for the present.

Wilcox. Pa., Sept. 18th, 1870.
Polly-tlcka keep very quiet here.
A. B. Preston returned here from
Philadelphia on Saturday evening.
Hon. Jackson 8. SohulU of New
York is in town, ho is a otaunch Re
publican, he thinks Tilden's chances
very slim in New York.
Ross says "J" caught a woodchuck
last week, "korrect," if Ross had been
visible the next day when it (the
woodchuck) was served op he might
have had a slice.
The RejMibllcan rrimnry Meeting
was held at Martin Sowers' Hotel on
Saturday evening, A. B. Preston, was
called to the chair and J. D. Parsons
elected Sec'y. A motion was made to
elect delegates by acclamation instead
of by ballot, motion carried, and Capt.
John Ernhout and Joseph Tambine
were unamously elected delegates to
the County Convention, with instruc
tions to do what might seem to the
best interest of the party. The busi
ness of the meeting being over Mr. A
B. Preston made a few remarks on the
lolitical outlook, which lie thinks is
very fluttering for Hayes fc Wheeler
He attended a Hayes & Wheeler
meeting nt Philadelphia last week, it
was estimated that twenty thousand
people were present, and that it is the
general opinion that with due effort,
on the part of the Republicans, not
withstanding the fact that Peter
Cooper will take a good many Rejmb-
lican votes, that we shall be triumph
ant in November.

History of the 10"tli Regiment.
Having gone lo considerable trouble to
furnish, for "History of the Pennsylvania
Volunteers," at the request of the Stat;
Historian, a sketch of the l'5ih P. V. we
found that owing to the abridgment of that
work, very little of the data lurnished was
used, and that a very unsnticfactory ac
count of the regiment was given. We then
yielded to the urgent request of metnberi
aud frieuds of the 105th, and agreed lo
finish and publish a complete ''History of
the 105th" in book form. In 1873 we hud
the work almost ready for publication, but
owing to circumstances beyond our control,
we were obliged to defer publishing it at
that time. But we have now concluded to
finish it, nnd having completed arrange
ments fur its publication, as soon as the
work can be carefully revised it will be put
in the publisher's hands.
The work is designed to be a full history
of all the battles, marches, it J., participa
ted in by the regiment; with a personal
record of each man, biographical sketches
of all the officers, nnd copies of All official
reports as copied from the originals at
Washington. U is our desire to make the
work a complete, truthful nud impartial
history of the regiment; one that every
member of the regiment will be proud to
hand down to his children. Then, soldiers
of the 105th, we cull upon you to aid us by
at once seudiug us any fact, incidents, or
autidotes relatiui; to yourselves, your com
rades, or the regiment in general. Look
up your old letters, diaries, &a., nnd send
us all the data you can before we make a
filial revision of the work. It is your his
tory we are writing and we ask your aid to
enable us to give you credit for all the glory
you wou.
The work will contain full page port rails
of Cols. McKnight and Craig, Lieutenaut
tirccuuwalt, aud two or three others of the
line officers, and already twelve portraits
for groups are promised. It is necessiry
that the officers decide at onoe concerning
portraits, as the work is now ready for a
final revision, all data must be sent in
within twenty days. R. M. Scott.

The other day lhe St. Louis Repub

printed on its editorial page Fattier
Ryan's tribute to "The Conquered

prominent place to a series of verses
eulogistic of John Wilkes Booth.
General J. M. Tuttle, of Iowa, says
he is constantly receiving from ex
soldiers who refuse to sujijiort Tilden
and Hendricks. Indeed, he says, "I
don't see how an intelligent soldier
can do anything else, as the rebels and
copperheads are now running the
party their own way."
South Carolina Democratic papers
are printing the rebel war records of
their candidates for State officers. Of
one it is said that "he participated in
the grand movement ol Gen. Jackson
hurling McClelland's advance forces
back into Maryland," and that his
was "a military career of which any
Carolinian might be proud."
Kev. llarnar Sears, agent of the
Peabody Fund, has written to North

stole the fund, as follows: "Tho
money due to your schools has long

l?ut to save you and your teachers from
further embarrassment, I will pay it a .
second time and look to Mr. Pool to

It Is noteworthy that the General
James 11. Steadman who is believed to
have projected the now exploded story
relative to Governor Hayes' tax re

Collectorship.
Appearances are that the Republi
cans can elect Hayes without carrying
Indiana in October, but ujion tho
whole they should carry Indiana. We
are indeed of the ojiinion that when a

it should carry all the States within
its jxiwer. Cincinnati Commercial.
"The Democrats chose Sevmour
with their eyes open chose him be

must bear the burden of their choice
as well as the disgrace of their own
trickery aud double dealing with him

declared then that they could not hojie
for success with anybody else, and tho
people will now take them at their
word." New York Tribune.
The Democrat have been bragging
very loudly that Governor Tilden has
saved New York some live million
dollars in decreased taxes, but it turns
out now, as the Comptroller's last re
port shows, that this reduction is
simjily due to the extinguishment of
the State debt in the ordinary course
of liquidation, and that the cost of
Mr. Tilden's State administration is
just as costly, if not more than any
preceding.
Our South Carolina correspondent
is almost sure the Democrats will
carry that State at the ajijiroaching
election. We presume there is no
doubt of it. The Southern Confeder
acy would not be solid without South
Carolina. The ltciiublican majority
in the State will be overcome, as iu
Mississippi. The Derringer policy
will prevail. That is the reason why
there is such a howl about bayonets.

The Democratic candidate for tho

The New York Sun having stated
that Hon. Carl Schurz, in writinsr to
a friend in Washington, had aaid that
in Ohio the German vote was arrayed
against the Republicans, and he had
doubts whether Hayes would carry
the State, a friend of the ex-Senator
telegraphed him yesterday about the
Sun's story, asking for the facts ami
the privilege of making his reply pub
lic. Tho following is Mr. Scliurz's
reply:
Michigan City, Ind., Sept. 12, 1870.
I wote no such letter, aud entertain

sure for Hayes. Use this as you
please.
