. Henry A. Parsons, Jr., - WHor THURSDAY, JUNE 28, 1879. Republican SUte Convention. The Republicans of Pennsylvania, and all others to favor of an Honest Currency and the faithful discharge of National Obligations, and opposed to Communism and the Restoration to Power In the National Government of the Influences which produced the Re bellion of 1861, are requested to send delegates apportioned to their repre sentation In the Legislature, to a Con vention to meet a Harrlsburg, at 12 M. on the 28b day or July next, to nominate a candidate for State Treas urer, and transact such other business as may be brought before It M. fl. QUAY, Chairman State Committee, Philadelphia, June 9, 1879. The will of the late William Lloyd Garrison, after giving $800 to each of his grand-children, bequeaths the rest of his property to his five children, to be equally divided. It Is said to be decided that the Silver bill shall remain in the hands of the Senate Finance Committee, and that, accordingly, Mr. Bayard will not resign his chairmanship. The ultra silver men will endeavor to have the bill put on the calendar to be taken up In December. The alarm over the negro exodus from Mississippi has led to the holding of a public meeting at Caseyville in that State, where two hundred citizens assembled, and the speakers denounced the lawlessness that had prevailed In the neighborhood for ten years. An other meeting is soon to be held at the same place to form military companies to enforce the laws. The original Anti-Slavery Society In this country was organized in 1832, and was known as the New England Anti-Slavery Society. Its officers were as follows: President, Arnold Buffum; Vice-Presidents, James C. Odiorne, Alonzo Lewis; Treasurer, Michael S'mpson; Corresponding Secretary, William Lloyd Garrison; Recording S jcretary, Joshua Coffin. All of these, ic is said, are dead. Mr. Carroll D. Wright, of the Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics, is Compiling the facts regarding crimes fn that State In order to answer the question whether crime Is increasing. He says that the assertions of the pub lic speakers for the last twenty years are the result of guesswork, and the compilation will deal with the subject exhaustively and settle the question as clearly as that regarding unem ployed labor was settled last year. At the funeral of General James Shields in Carrollton, Mo., the two swords presented to him by the States of Illinois and South Carolina for gal lantry in the Mexican War were crossed over the coffin. The gift of Illinois cost $2,000 and that of South Carolina $8,000, aud both are richly studded with jewels. The immediate cause of General Shield's death was the opening of the old wound received by him at the battle of Cerro Gordo. At the last election In Callaway county, Mo., a man was elected Pro bate Judge after a cauvass In which he rau on an Independent ticket with the agreement, that, if chosen, he would accept only a specified amount of the fees pertaining to the office and would turn the rest over to the school fund. His defeated opponent Instituted pro ceedings ogainst him, and the State Supreme Court has decided that a " vote given for a candidate for a pub lic office in consideration of his prom ise in ease lie shall be elected to donate a sum of rhoney or other valuable thing to a third party, whether such party be an iudividual, a county or other corporation, is void." A little son of the Rev. B. C. Spil ler, of the Methodist church near Richmond, Va., met with a terrible death June 10. A man was hauling manure from the barnyard to the field with an ox team, and while he was in the rear of the wagon loading the child went In front of the ox, hav ing in his hand a large red handker chief. The ox seeing this become maddened, and dashed at the little fel low and gored him. The man ran to rescue the child from the infuriated animal, but before he reached him the ox broke and ran, trampling the child under its feet, and turning suddenly In annotber direction, brought the child into the track of the cart-wheels, which passed over him and crushed him to death. The Next Census. The secretary of the interior, on or before the first day of March, 1880, will appoint one or more supervisors of census for each State, but the whole number in the States and Territories shall not exceed 130. These supervisors shall appoint the enumerators for the various coun ties of the State. Any county exceed ing 4,000 in population shall be divided' into districts so that no district shall contain more than 4,000 inhabitants. These enumerators shall begin their duties on the first Monday . in June, 1880, and finish their work be for the first day of July, 1880, thus requiring the work to be done in leas than thirty days. The compensation will be two cents for each inhabitant : two cents cents for each death reported teu cents for each farm, and 15 cent for each establishment of productive in dustry. Application for appointment us enumerators oiuit be addressed to the supervisors of the State when appointed. Washington Letter. From onr regular Correspondent. Washington, D. C, June 28. A little more foolishness and grab bing and balr-spllttlng among Con gressmen has disappointed those who hoped for an adjournment of Congress this week. It would be wrong to charge the responsibility of all the foolishness of this session upon either party, for both are certainly mora or less to blame; but It Is oertain that so much petty squabbling was never crammed Into one short session before. The time was, I suppose, when Con gress came together to consider the best interests and greatest wants of the country, and to devise means of meet ing them; but in these latter days the Interests of ' political parties are the ends aimed at It Is one constant struggle for one party to get an advan tage over the other, no matter how it Is gained.whether by falsehood or gross misrepresentation, or by downright fraud. One-half the speeches made In the houses of Congress and there is an endless flow of gab are insecure harrangues, whose authors know their own statements to be unfair and un true. The people at large really care very little for parties. It is the men that live by politics who make all the fuss, and for selfish ends strive to keep alive sectional hatreds and all sorts of animosities and prejudicles. The country is in a reasonably sound con dition, notwithstanding the loud warn ings of revolution and new rebellious, and smashing of constitutions. There would be a much firmer feeling in business circles If Congress would go away and stay away for nine months or a year. Perhaps not one in ten of those who read this has ever stopped to think what the result of all this will be where this Indifference of the people and activity and scheming of the politicians will eventually lead us. Doubtless a greater proportion than nine out of every ten expect that this great Republic will celebrate its second Centennial. Speaking of the National Centennial reminds me that the regents of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Asssciation, composed of regents from the various States, have just held their annual session and made a report of what has been done about the old homestead of General Washington. During the year ending June 1 there has been 11,000 visitors, 2,107 of which were there during the month of May this year the largest number ever received in that month. There are under culti- nation 18 acres of corn, eight of rye, seven of oats, and ten of grass. Over $12,000 were expended during the year in repairs, which Is exclusive of the work done by the vice regents of Illi nois and Ohio. A noticeable improve ment at Mount Vernor is the refur nishing of the apartment formerly nsed by Miss Nellie Custis as a music room. This was done by Mrs. Broad well, of Ohio, and is known as the Ohio room. It contains the harpsi chord which belonged to Miss Custis, and which was presented to heron her wedding day by General Washington. The entire furnishings of the room, even to the peculiar lambrequins, are correct copies of the originals. Even the mantel vases are of the old royal Berlin China, procured at no small cost, because it is known that two sim ilar vases were also in this room. A handsome cabinet contains a Tokio incense jar and Cupo di Monti cup and saucer, of great value, while a large Venetian mirror rests against the eastern wall. General Washington's flute, mounted in ivory and silver, pre sented to the association by Mrs. Washington, of West Virginia, has been restored to its original position in this room. The furniture is covered with aac simile of the cloth which was used when the room was occupied by the Washington family. The reHcs added during the year include a suit of General Washington's clothes, worn by hiin when he delivered his farewe 1 address. They are of black velvet, worn when he was in mourning for his mother. The suit was deposited by Mrs. Charle T. Mitchell, of Charles ton, S. C, asisterof Mrs. Washington, of West Virginia, vice regent, and a great-great-grand-niece both of Gen eral and Mrs. Washington. The vice regent of West Virginia will complete the suit by adding the sword which! was worn with it. A movement is on foot to hold the first exhibition of the National Fair Association this fall, with every pros pect of success. Last year Congress passed an act incorporating such an association, and it is proposed by the incorporators to utilize the ground at Benui'g Station, near the city, where there is already an excellent race track. Undoubtedly such an enter prise would excite general interest, and prove of great benefit to the people at large. Especially in the matter of mechanical inventions and improvements, no place in the country Is so suitable for an exhibition. Thousands of men interested in such matters come here annually to visit the J'utent Office and they could, with no extra expense and little additional trouble, contribute to this display il lustrating the genius and industry of the country. The National Capital is the great natural centre visited by people from every quarter, and the idea of adding such an exhibition to its attractions will become a very pop ular undertaking. The horses presented by the Sultan of Turkey to General Grant have been nere mis weeK ana nave attracted a large number of peopld to their stable. most of whom expected to see some thing extraordinary, as they were known to have beeu selected from the old Sultan's stable ot 700 fine steeds. They are named "Leopard" and "ljinaen Tree." The former is a dappled gray, six years old, fifteen hands high, with a magniflcient form and carriage. The latter is five years of age, steel gray, with less spots than bis companion, about the sume size. and equally handsome. The trappings ana norsesnoes from Arabia are very curious. The latter are merely round. flat pieces of iron, with a bole in the centre, fitting to the bottom of the horse's hoofs. These flat shoes are fltted for the country where they are used, affording a safe protection from the sharp rocks, and giving a sure foot lug on sandy soil. The horses have never been in harness.

A correspondent of the Clinton Dtmotrat, writing from Hyner, gives the following description of bow the oil was forid through the flps Js Wllliamsport. He says: 1 distance pnoM hyner. As the pip line is within seven miles of Hyner, It being the nearest point to the railroad along the whole lino, a abort description of the oil's first advent may not prove uninterest ing, especially, when we reflect upon the Ingenuity of man lu lifting oil over two thousand feet from below the surface of the earth, and conveying it scores of miles over mountains of great height and almost purpendlcular. Many were the conjectures among us rustics as to whether the oil would flow up a steep mountain, even for the sake of getting to Wllliamsport. Most of us divined It would not but our predictions proved erroneous. Mr. Ntfer, who lives on the pike, tells us how the oil came In this wise. "I was coming along up the pike when I met a man ; says be , THE OIL IS COMING!" It seems when they first started the oil they dispatched men to follow right along to see that all went well. The man Mr. Nlfer met was one of them. He had got ahead of the oil. "Well, says Mr. Nlfer, "I had a dog and so had be. Well, we lay down close by the pipe, but the dogs lay some distance off. We all remained there some thirty minutes, when the dogs jumped up as though they were frightened. I thought it was a deer. I then beard the pipe begin to sound, and the man said the oil was coming. I sprang to my feet and heard the oil rushing by. I knew then it was a reality." Mr. John Ward, one of the watchmen, also gave us an account The line crosses Hayner's run, or its headwaters, at a place called McClure's Springs. Here there is quite a hol low or depression In the ground. From this place to the residence ofMr. Holding, some six miles beyond, there Is a gradual rise; this the oil had to climb after passing the hollow at the springs. Mr. Ward says: "I was told to watch well this hollow, as the oil had ascended Kettle Creek moun tain and was coming. I repared to the hollow and lay some hours there, when I heard a sound like a heavy wind and presently heard THE OIL GURGLING PAST. I waited some time. There was no leakage and all seemed perfect. I thought the pipe line was a success, for sure, and so left my position and passed along to see if it were all right ahead. I had gone some two miles when I received a dispatch to watch well the hollow and not to leave it for some time, so I hastened bock. Ijmagin my astonishment when I saw the place I bad left such a short time before so tame, now hissing at ten 1 thousand points. Jets of oil were flying twenty feet high and hundreds of barrels flowing down Hyner's r.uu never to see a market. I thought the pipe was gone up, sure. At first I was afraid to approach it, but soon grew valiant, and with calking chisel I set to work to stop the leak. I made poor headway, It was a dark night, and I dared have no light I had taken off my coat, the whizzing oil carried away my hat, and I very soon became thoroughly drenched with oil. My pockets and my hair and eyes were full, and if I was not then AN OIL MAN, I would like to know what constitutes one. I at length grew sick and sup posed I would have to give up and all would be lost, when all at once the whizzing stopped, and, instead of an out pressure, I could hear an in draw inga succtiou of air. I now realized the fact that the oil had all this time been climing the up-trade to Mr Holding's, but was uow on the decent for Pine Bottom run. This caused a suction, and relieved the hollow at the springs. I again waited some hours, when I received a dispatch to hasten to Hayneville, that the pipe was burst ing I procured a nurse and went with all speed. When I arrived the people there were greatly excited. The pipe was throbbing and whizzing at every pore. McClures springs were nowhere! The oil was spouting from the pipe for miles. I made no attempt to calk. I knew from my experience at McClure's Springs that the oil bad reached and was climbing the HIGH MOUNTAIN BELOW PINE CHEEK, but the pressure was so great that I feared every moment the pipe would burst. Here was a force aguiust which human power was of no avail, hence. we only stood and looked on, when suddenly, as quick as thought, all commotion ceased, except a sucking in of air, and I heard the air pass rapidly along the pipe and knew it bad crossed over the mountain and was speeding Its way to Williamsport, with no more mountains to climb, and, that the oil line was an established fact." A new counterfeit $5 legal tender note has made rU appearance in West em New York. It is of the series of 1875, and bears the names of Register Allison and Treasurer Wyman. It is executed on a printed imitation of fibre paper which is lighter than the gen uine. The portrait of Jackson is good, but the general appearanoe of the note is bank. Bankers pronounce it a dan gerous counterfeit. A quantity of this spurious money was passed ou Satur day at Buffalo, N. Y., and later several of the shovers were arrested at Dun kirk. The notes were probably Issued from some Canadian folnt, as the per sons arrested were traced from Canada and had In their possession a quantity of small bills on Canadian banks which were genuine the proceeds probably of operations there with bad notes.
