The opposition to Mr. Oyster seem to ho hard pushed when they need to tell the story thnt Mr. Oyster has witlnlrnw lroni the contest, to secure votes for their favorite, hut, you know, ' 'a desperate case needs despcrute rem edies." Colonel William IS. Hart. From the Tyrone Herald, William B. Hart, tho Republican candidate for state treasurer, is a rep resentative man in the truest sense of the word. He went into ofllee as a clerk of the lowest elm-9, and gradually worked his way forward, recognized at every step for his personal worth, until he reached the responsible posi tion of chief clerk of the treasury. He is a mechanic, bavins served a regular apprenticeship to a trade. Ho left hi crative employment to enter the army and fight for tho defence of his country, which h did as valiantly as any man who stood loyally by the old Hag. When the war was over he re ceived an appointment unasked, and has retained his place in the treasury by force alone of his personal merits. The same influence his own personal worth securert him the nomination for state treasurer. That was sponta neous, and if ever the oflice sought the man it did in this case. Mr. Hart was nominated because he had been tried and found true in every test applied to him. He is faithful, competent and honest. Wild geese are southward Hying, but they are few in number compared with the Oyster voters who will fly to the polls on election day. The Largest Crop or rain this Country lias jet Produced. The grain crop of tho United States this autumn is a vast increase over that of any preceding year in the history of the country. It amounts in the two principal cereals, wheat and corn, to 32-",000,0U0 bushels of the former, and 1,20,000,000 of the latter, accord ing to the careful estimates of Mr. Walker, the statistician of tho New York produce exchange. The move ment of this enormous crop has just begun to be felt, as up to the past eight weeks the expectations were of last year's crop ; but the sudden in crease already noted gives good prom ise of a golden futuro. During the brief period mentioned our exports of wheat from the ports of New York, Montreal, Boston, Philadelphia, Haiti more New Orleans and Portland have aggregated 11,525,187 bushels, against an exportation from tho same ports during a corresponding period of last year of 3,038,951 bushels, showing an increase of 7,580,238 bushels. There has also been an increase of 708,235 bushels in the exportation of rye Jduring the tunic time,nnd in peas an increase of 18,40!) bushels. In corn alone has there been a falling offto the extent of 1, 033,054 in that time. A Traveler Dispatches Two Highway men.' Cincinnati, October 22. A special dispatch states that a desperate en Counter took place on Saturday even ing at Hlg Clifty, Kentucky, near Louisville, -between two highwaymen and Joseph Hansen, a traveling sales man. Hansen started to walk from West Clifty to Big Clifty to catch a train, and was met upon the bridge, which spans a chasm one hundred and forty-six feet in depth, by two desper ate characters who demanded money. Hensen drew a revolver and shot one of them, when the other rushed upon him and attempted to throw him over the bridge, nut Hansen drew a butcher knife from his package of samples, stabbed the robber and succeeded in throwing him down the chasm and then escaped to Big Clifty. The rob bers were arrested, but not recognized by the people of the place. The one who was thrown over the bridge was saved from instant death by falling in Nolin river, but both men will proba bly die A Drunkard's Spree.
