"People who live In glass house should never throw stones." Our friend Miller of the Democrat, should commit the above homely adage to memory, and when, an awkward sentence or a small gram matical error creeps into the com munication of a correspondent of one of his contemporaries; a correspon dent who probably has never passed into the front and out the back door of a college or had his understanding sharpened by polishing the shoes of the students; instead of spending Ills time and wasting Ids ink, for the pur pose of pointing it out to his readers, he should take from Ills file thecmo crn of Sept. 21st, read carefully his urticle headed "Republican Co. Con vention," and t-hould any of the "Lindley Murray" which was ham mered into his head in his school boy days still remain he will discover that deeply as he may be versed in the rules of English grammer he makes blunders that would bo unpardonable in the composition of an ordinary boy of 12 years. Where is the grammer that teaches him to use the indicative torm of the verb in the subjunctive mode, or to use the nominative case of a pronoun as the object of a preposi tion? Fie on you Gene: Cast out the beam in your own eye, before you worry about the mote in that of your neighbor. We will lend you a boy of 12 summers if you desire it to correct your Mss. before it goes into the hands of the compositor, though we can but poorly spare him at present as we arc cutting our corn and digging our potatoes. NO PEDAGOGUE. Brandon of the Gazette, in his last Issue gives currency to a canard, started originally by some swill-milk paper in Sandusky of the Democratic persua tion, charging Gov. Hayes with fraud and perjury in his tax returns, of old horses, watches, &c. It appears the slander did not live 24 hours, and was virtually dead two weeks ago, and dis" missed by all respectable journals' Neutral, and Independent, as well as Democratic. Williumsport, September 24. In Forest county, on Thursday, the mountain streams became greatly swollen from the recent storm, the waters flooding the partly-settled val leys in the lumber regions and doing much damage. Near Ralston sixteen persons lost their lives. In McKeau county the storm was of long duration and severe. Two persons were drowned near Smethport. In Tioga county three lives are known to have been lost, and it is authentically re ported that four persons were drowned while attemping to cross a swollen stream ut-Wellsport. I'rvm the Williumsport, O. & R. The Democratic Spirit. The spirit animulingthe Democracy appears identical, whether it is ob served ventilating itself through the murder of negroes at Hamburg, mob bing Republican speakers at Augusta, Ga.; hurrahing for Jeff Davis and Samuel J. Tildeii in Indiana; cheer ing for the "lost cause" under a con federate flag bearing the names of Til den and Hendricks, in Kentucky and Missouri; insulting Liberal Republi can recruits, us Dorsheimer, in the Saratoga convention; hiding the cow ardly front behind the respectability of Charles Francis Adams in Massa chusetts, or soliciting instructions as to the political duties of the Demo cratic party from the patriotic private secretary of the late President Davis, C. S. A., who was imported into Maine for that purpose. The char acter of Democratic nominees for United States and state oftieiufs, from Tiiden down In this centennial year of American independence, might be cited as further proof, were it neces sary to prove what is self evident to intelligent citizens. Hardly a candi date has been named by the party north or south, who has not either a confederate army record, or who is not known to have been prominently identified with the copperhead faction in the north during the war; and many of them are especially abhorred aud detested by loyal men and women, because of their leading part in the atrocities practiced upon disarmed prisoners of war at Audersonville and other localities of rebel torture; in the organization of Knights of the Golden Circle; becuuseof their cordial approval of Blackburn's method of reducing the efficiency of the union armies, through the propagation of yellow fe ver and other fatal diseases, by infected clothing; the fiendish murder of Presi dent Lincoln in i860, and tens of thousands of Republicans in the south since. Is it a matter of any surprise that the present campaign has been and will bo fought to the bitter end on precisely the issues that buried Sey mour and Blair from sight in 1808, when they were so presistently forced by the lute confederate house and kept steadily at tho front by the Democracy, in their nominations and niethodsof the campaign? Not a pa per comes from the south that does not contain a southern version of some outbreak, terminating in the murder of one or more Republicans. Rebellion is openly advocated by some of their more injudicious speakers and papers. Among the latter the Baltimore Gazette, which has become so bitter in jts assaults on the govern inent recently, that tho leaders felt constrained, as a matter of policy to admonish it to be less violent at this particular time. These facto are suffi cient to convince the people that thjeir only safety, and the perpetuity of the government,, liea in the election of Hayes and Wheeler. General Notes. The Williumsport Sunday Times reoords the fact that Mr. Thomas Cantwell, of that ouy , a poor laboring man, and who works In a stone-yard, hns fallen heir to about $8,000 by the death of an uncle in Missouri. The Wheeler brothers who have been working their lirm (clfim No 2) below Gayville, on the Deadwood Creek, arrived at Fort Laramie on Friday night with a paid escort of twenty men. They bring as the proceeds of seven months' work over $300, 000 and 1,000 pounds of dust. Collector Cooper, of the Third district of Arkatisif, reports a recent raid by his deputies, with the Uuited States Marshal s posee, on illicit distilleries in Newton county. Four stills were seized aud thirteen illicit distillers were arrested. A laige quantity of mash was destroyed The locality of this raid has been notorious for the production nt "crooked'' whisky, and the officers have hitherto met with much resistance there. It is believed now that the most lawless of them are in custody. Washington, September 25. Tjo Nor folk authorities threaten Baltimore's sttatu boats With a rigid yellow fever quaratine. A fatal epidetnio fever of some sort is uu uoubtedly raging in Baltimore. As whs the case in Savannah, every effort is being made to suppress the real facts of the case. A suspiciously large n 11111 be of persvns are being sent to tho Baltimore hospital, and all strange to say, are afflicted with ''lypho malarial fever of an epidemic character." Boston, September 24 Yesterday deleo fives arrested 11 illiam Hurt on the charge of purlo ning o'l the Olh, inst., $5,000 worth of jewelry from the house of William H. Kemble. et-State Treasurer of Pennsylva nia in Philadelphia. Hart claims to be the nephew of Mr. Kemble, but this is denied by the latter. He pawned jewelry in New York for $1,200, but had spent it all when arrested. He will be taken to Philadelphia on Monday. Chicago, September 22. The bank rob bers caught by the citizens of Mudelia. Watson county, Miuncsota, last n'ght, are undoubtedly the Younger gang It is be lieved that Cole Younger is the one who was killed. Bob Y'ounger, or the man tup po.ced to be him, is dangerously if not falally wounded, as is another robber, name unknown. The three living members of the gang were confined in Mudelia jnil In si night, but have stinted under guard. No detectives and noue but countrymen were engaged in the capture. The recent suspension of the Miners' trust co in puny bank, Pottsville, with lia bilities of $1,500,000, and assets not amounting to oue-eighth of that sum is causing great distress. Want is beginning to be felt by the poor, numbering hundreds, who have been putting their savings in for years and have been in the habit ot draw ing out, at the approach of each winter, what little was neccessary to help them along when work generally was scarce. Y'esterday a crowd ot women met the prei i dent, Jacob Huntzir.ger, 011 Centre street and demanded their money, al the same time crowding and hustling him around un comfortably. Fearing trouble he called on a police officer to escort him home, fol. lowed by the excited woman. Yesterday evening the directors made an assignment and appointed il. C. Russell and S. A.

History of the 105th Regiment. Having gone to considerable trouble to furnish, for "History ot 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 .uruished was used, and that a very unsativfaotory ac count ot the regiment was given. We theu yielded to the urgent request of members and friends of the 105th, and agreed lo fiuish and publish a complete "History of the 105th'' in book form. In 1873 we had the work almost ready for publication, but owing to circumstanced beyoud our couuol, we were obliged lo defer publishing it at that time. But we have now concluded to fiuish it, and having completed arrange ments for its publication, as suou 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, lie, participa ted in by the regimeut; with a personul record of eaoh man, biographical sketches of all the officers, and copies of all official reports as copied from the originals at Washington. It is our desire to make the work a complete, truthful and impartial history of the regimeut; one that every member of the regiment will be proud, to hand down to his childreu. Then, soldiers of the 105th, we call upon you to aid us by at once seudiug us any taut, incidents, or autidotes relating to yourselves, your com rades, or the regiment iu geuerul. Look up your old letters, diaries, &o., and send us all the data you can before we make a final revision of the work, it it your his tory we are writing and we ask your aid tu enable us to give you credit foi all the glory you won. The work will ooutuiu full page pari raits of Cols. McKuight aud Craig, Lieuieuaul Ureeoawalt, and two or three others of the nne officers, aud already twelve portraits for groups are proanicd. It is uecebbary that the officers decide at once oonoeruiug portraits, as the worn is now ready tor a -final revision, all diti iiut be seut ia witbia twoaiy Uys. R 11. Soutt. Drtfoiivillo, Fa. CENTENNIAL LETTER. T'rom our regular Correspondent. Philadelphia, Sep. 25th, 1876. "Who ever saw the like?" is what every, body exclaims now. All previous accounts of tho rush hiiherward have fuiled to convey an adequate idea of Its extent at this writing.- The incoming trains from every direction are overloaded with humau freight, and come pulling into the depots beluud time. The hotels are packed lull from ground to at.io Boors, and there is a swarm of humanity blockading the streets and surging into every place ct enterlnine ment or amusement. People who intend coming in the noxt few weeks will do well to engage quarters iu advanoe, if they hme notalitady done so The attendance on the Exhibition grounds grows larger end! day, and fiom present indications promises to exceed the most sanguine expectation. On Wednesday, for the first time since the opening day, the number exceeded the highest figure ever predicted, being over 100,000 visitors at full rates. At the present rales of increase, with people still pouring into to A n from every quarter, it looks as though the attendance might reach 200,0n0 daily in another week. Even at the average of last wee, from now till the close, would make an aggregate of eight ttud a halt millions of visitors. Thursday was "New Yorn day." and brought many thousand from the Empire stale. Gov. ernor Tiiden held a reception in the New Vorn state building, which was throngel throughout I lie day "Pennsylvania day" follows next Thursday, when the greatest throng of the season is expected. The Hon. Benj.il. Brewster will deliver an address, and in Hie evening the graudeBt display of fire works ever wnuessed on this coutiuent has been arranged for 10 be supplied by a Lon don firm. The diBplay of minerals in various de partments of the Exhibition makes, col. leclively, one uf the most prominent and in teresting features. That portion of this ex hibit is chiefly the fruit of geological Bur veys of the territories under Prof. Haydcn and Major Powell. Dr. llayden'B survey was begun in 18H7 with a sm it 1 1 appropriation of $5,000, made by Congress for the examination of Ne braska. Iu 18G9 it was extended lo Colorado and New Mexico, with an in creased appropriation of $10,000. Since then, it has been going ou on a large scale, and with increased usclulness until now. This year's field work will be tho last, and already some of the flual memoirs on speoial KUhjccts have beeo priuted. Tne work has been conducted in the most thorough and systematic manlier, and it is surprising to compare the results obtained with the com puraiively sma'l amount of money ex pcuded. The special memoirs are, with out exception, from ihe pens of the most ac complished specialists iu the country, and (lie practical results of the survey in guid ing the prospector and miner in their labors are beyond estimate Among the most attractive objects exhibited are the beaut i fu.ly executed photographs of scenery, by Mr. Jackson, the photographer of Ihe sur vey, 'iheso are both on wood and glass. There is also a scries of water-color sketches, which convey much information to the geologist, besides beiug a very credi table work of art. The roups, bearing dates 1873-4 and 5, evince great care and accuracy iu their delineation of tho typo graphical aud geological details. Tho models ot the country explored, showing, iu colors, the geological structure, convey to the uninitiated a belter idea than could be obtained from a library full of books. Attached to the collection are a lot of pottery of the Indians from the Muucos cnuyou, aud models of tho ruins of the luiliau houses in the canyon of the 1Uj du Chelly as they now exist, and restored lo show how they locked when occupied. Tho Powell survey begun by un amateur trip of Major Powell, iu 1807, in the moun tain region of Colorado. Iu 1808, silmu. luted by niiut ho saw on that summer's ex cursion, ho organized un expedition for further exploration, which continued in 1809. During these several excursions tho piuii was conceived to explore the canyons of the Colorado river. This has finally ex panded into a detailed examination of Utah und 1 lie reports will form a haudsome series not inferior in execution, or in importance to tho others being executed by tho other purveys. Hut one vkIuuio of these reports lias so far been published though Ihe othots are under way, aud a series of the maps, not yet issued by ihe department, is ex hibited. Some of the diagrams, of which there is a whole atlas, display a high degree ot ingenuity in the maimer of execution, and they nlusira.e iu a striking manner the foldings and breaks of tlie strata over the desert table lands of Utah. With them I here is a model of about thirty thousand tquare miles of the area of Utah culored geologically and admirably doue. It would be a praiseworttiy work ou the part of the Government to cause to be made for the Na tional Museum a complete scries of such models illustrating the geology of the whole country. The necessary inhumation exists in great pari for this work in the reports of the geological surveys of the several States aud Territories aud but few spots would be left blauk, eveL at the present state of our kuoweledge, while the surveys going on will soon supp y a',1 deficiencies, Tu s sur vey also exhibits a large scries of photo, graphs. The space originally alloted in the Main Exhibition building 10 the display of min erals and mineral products of the United Stales, although apparently liberal enough was Boon found to be totally inadequate, and two additional buildings were ercoted in tne narrow area, Detweea tne main struoiure and the street. In these are placed the speciul exhibits of several of tho Slates, and numerous contributions of cor poral ions and private partios. Come of the Mates heve been couienl to preieut to the National Museum a series of their products, bui, in several cases, as for instance, Michigan, Kentucky, Ohiu, and Colorado have tent other contributions ei'ber as official state exhibits or as coming from in dividuals. The Kentucky limestone, Ohio saudstone, etc , are exhibited in various shades and varieties. The new eoonomio material, called carboualed stone, made with a uarbouuling process, is well shown aud gets a good deal of notice from parties molested in the subject ot building ma terials, etc The Odd Fellows parade on Wednesday was the grandest display ever made by this order, there were 15,000 in line and ihe procession ocoupied three aud a half hours in passing a given point. 1 he band ot the oollosal bronio statute Liberty Enlightening the World," re cently sent over from Frauoe, is beiug placed in position to-day on the Ex position grounds, and attraots a large crowd of admirers. This statue is the gift of France to America, und when com. pleted will stand upon an island in New tork harbor. The hand holding aloft a. torch is tho only portion of the statue that has beeu completed as yet, and shipped to this country. Ihe hand alone is a huge monument, and towers above surrounding objects like a giant among pigmies. Savannah, September 25.
