The evidence, in Ihe Centreville murder ease in which John Johnson, a Swedo, lofet his life was concluded on Thursday afternoon of last week, and is volumiious in extent, so extensive is it that we do not attempt giving even a synopsis of the proceedings, In addition to the men we mentioned as Lming arrested last week, Robert McCormick is now In the county jail In connection with the murder. On the evening after the first six Were arrested McCorniicksald said he could put nis nana on tne man wiio com mitted the murder, when ho was ar rested and held as a witness, John Collins goiug his bail for appearance at tho September term of court, when he threatened to decamp and leave Col lins to pay the bail. Hearing of this Collins again had him brought before Esquire Taylor on. the bail piece, Upon this examination he swore that lie knew nothing about the murder at all, when Esquire Taylor committed McCormick for perjury to await tho action of the Court in September. There are now seven men in jail all connected directly or indirectly with the unmlerof the Swede, Johnson. A tremendous amount of testimony, as we have before said, has been taken, and yet there seems to be surrounding the ease an air of mystery which nothing short of a trial in court will set right. We have no desire to pre judice the case of any person arrested in connection with this crime, but we sincerely hope that speedy punish ment will overtake the perpetrators of the foul and unprovoked deed. For when an unoffending man can be struck down in cold blood without auything being done about it, just then will our county be.ng in a social con dition bordering on barbarism. The law is for the protection of all and the KUilty narties Concerned in the death of this poor Swede will find to their tearful cost that its majesty cannot be violated with imnunitv. rVnytliing transpiring between this time and court week of interest con nected with the crime we will report. Antl at the trial we shall lay the evi dence before our readers in detail. Death of a Millionaire. About one o'clock Monday morning Walter Bryant stepped out of the second story window of the room at the Hyde House where he was slecn- nglanding on his back in a greatly leiiiorulized condition. His groans attracted the attention of guests of the house who on ascertaining the cause t once went to the assislance of the wounded man. lie was conscious when found, and said lie lm.l been dreaming Hid imagined that he was in a carri age ami being conveyed to a place to which he did not wish logo, when lie succeeded in freeing himself ami as he supposed stepped from the carriage. The distance from the window to the pavement is about fourteen feet, and a lerribic distance for a man to fa!! when awake. At half past nine Monday night theold man was called from la bor to eternal repose, after suffering considerable pain, Ills death being the result of the fall which caused a dis placement of some one of the vital orytns, and internal hemorrhage. No bones were found to have been broken He was about 73 years of age, and at the time of his death a citizen of Philadelphia, nil hough he had for many years been a resident of Alle gheny City, where with seven chil dren who had laid down in dust be fore him, lie was consigned to Earth's bosom. Mr. Bryant was well known in Elk and Jefferson counties, where he was largely interested in timber lands. Being, it is said, tho largest taxpayer in Jefferson county. In this county in conjunction with Daniel Euwer he owned 5, ();)! acres of pine lands in Ridgway and Spring Creek township from which the firm of Bryant & Euwer had realized a royalty of perhaps $300,000 in the past twelve or fourteen years. Mr. Bryant's busi ness here at the time of his death was to arrange for the rebuilding of the old mill at lower Mill Creek. Dying he leaves, it is said, a million and a half of property and money, and three sons, one daughter, and a widow to each of whom will be left a com fortable sum. His will was made, and his two sons who were summoned from Kane to their father's deathbed are authority for saying that their father's business could be settled in a very short time, so strict had he been in his business habits. A close fisted, penurious old man, who yet in the fleeting days allotted to him was as in tent on increasing his gain, us though the inevitable debt of Nature was never to be paid. Without attempting to moralize, it seems that in the death of a man of this stamp, although his millions had been accumulated, the world is no loser, and that the lesson of thrift whicli his example teaches is more than lost, by the lack of that sympathy for suffering humanity, which such great wealth might huve made something more than sympathy, which was a characteristic of the dead man. Idle is it to crowd around the tinseled casket of such a man and drop the tears of pity for his death on account of his milllions. Better is it that the tears should be saved for the poor who in his long career he has either oppressed or failed to relieve. For Hams, Bacon, Shoulders, and refined Lard go to Morgester's. The Pittsburg Post speaks of the Republican voters rushing by thous ands to the Hancock banner. It is like the boy who told his father thai he saw '.'niore'n a thousand dogs in the street," and on being cross-examined, at last declared that there "was Tige an' a nuthtr dog, anyhow." Derrick.

Dr. Tanner has experienced no nausea since midnight and his stomach altogether is in an improved condition. His features are still pinched and drawn and his eyes look hectic. His temper is irritable and the crowd of spectators annoy him. The usual drive failed to benefit him and he says he will give up going out, until the end of his last. During the morning lie drank at intervals less thali half a pint of ci'oton and mineral water. He is now on his thirty-seventh day. The record of Dr, Iloeber, who was one of the watchers last night says: "I don't yet find any thing alarming in Dr. Tanner's con dition and believe from the strength developed when he walks, moves and speaks, liiat if he abstains from ir riuiting drinks, like mineral water, that lie may fast four or five days more that is up to Sunday." This strength seems to leave him during the early luoruing. hours and at this time tho watchers arc doubly careful lest signs of a collapse should begin to show themselves. At one time dur ing the night lliere was no less than ten physicians in the gallery. Tanner seemed to wish for all the air lie could possioly get and had all the windows open. A refreshing breeze during the night was enjoyed very much by him. A Bay's (lootl Rcarons. The Ohio Xtntc Journal has re ceived a letter from one of tiie"boys (' seventeen years ago," who, it justly says, "is a sample of many thousands who will vote the first time this fail." The boy writes from Lithapolis, say ing: The question has been asked, "Why don't you vote tho Democratic ticket f'r a change?" I will give the reasons why I do not vole the Democratic ticket. My reasons are : ' 1. Democrats starved mj father to death In a rebel prison. 2. Democrats tried to sever this Union. 3. Democrats sought -to extend sla very all over this country. 4. Southern Democrats constitute the tree, and Northern Democrats are the "grafts," and "hy the fruit shall we know the tree." 5. "But," says one, "We are no rebels." Maybe you are not; but "birds of a feather llock together." You all vote for one ticket, and you are in hearty sympathy with the old rebels. Mrs. J. S. Stewart and children are at Warren on a visit. Goiug there yesterday. J. S. Maginnis has a sore hand the result of a thorn which he ran in while harvesting his oats. Ex-Senator Stanley Matthews de livered a great speech in Cincinnati on Saturday night. Its closing sentences were us follows: "In my opinion there is enshrined in the body politic of the Republican organization all there is good iu our present political situa tion, and all the mischief and all the lunger is in the Democratic party. To my mind, the Republican party embodies now,asit bus always done.the great idea of our nationality, and I spell the word Nation with the biggest N. All there is in the unity of this people, all them .js in the fraternity, of these races that are to inhabit and cultivate and civilize this continent in its keeping, the keeping of this nation in its own integrity and unity and greatness and power and glory, and in the idea of its nationality, is carried out by that political party which has upheld its banners and defended its Hag and preserved its constitution. In that to me lie the hopes of the world as they are to be developed on this continent. Try the 50 cent tea sold at Mor gvktor's Jt may fcuit you, List of Jurors.

A "Republican Manual" for the camps ign of 1880, Is announced as in print and very soon to be Issued. It is written by Mr. E. V. Smalley, long known as a brilliant newspaper cor respondent, and for many years a lead ing editorai writer on the New York Tribune. Leading features of the book, will of course be biographies of the candidates. It will be the most authoritive and most complete sketch of General Garfield which willuppear. Mr. Smalley was at one time the Generals private secretary, and has been bis intimate friend during the whole of his public career, and is therefore qualified by special advan tages as well as by talent and exper ience for the task undertaken. "Garfield as an Orator and as a Statesman" is a special department, containing extracts from the General's most celebrated speeches, upon topics of tiie greatest interest in the present impaigu; an I representing the best li'orts of a brilliant scholur. an orator of rare power, and a statesman or con summate ta'et aiid skill, it will be read Willi great interest. - Another depart ment, not only of great present inter est, but of permanent value, is a full history of the Republican parly, ils principles, struggles and victories, with important statistical tables, par ticularly valuable for reference in po litical campaigns. It Is a book which earnest Republi- ans will delight in, and find the best of all arsenals from which to draw ammunition for campaign use; a book which the independent and conserva tive voters will study witli interest and profit; a book which small Democrat! . tump si leakers will steer clear of when they can. It is published by the American Hook Exchange. New York, whose "Literary Revolution" lias been the wonder and pleasure of book buyers for mouths past, and its price, therefore, is only fifty cents, it h seven cents extra for postage here sent by mail. Leading book sellers, agents of the publishers, will have it. Chairman Jewell, while at the Boston dinner of the Massachusetts Republican Committee, alluded to the filing at Waahington, one week after Hancock's nomination, of the first claim for pension for a rebel soldier. I have bad it in my hand,' he said, and I honestly believe it is only the advance guard of hundreds of thous ands of claims of that kind. The Southern Brigadiers will say at once. if they get control, 'We have been pretty liberal with you ut the North; there Is nothing mean about us; put our boys on the same ground we do your' And as an earnest to these men and officers who fought to des troy this government, as an earnest that they shall be reeoguized In some parts, they openly avow that their men shall be put on our rolls, and so the claim is filed in Washington." Chicago Tribune: "The Hancock boom' resembles a bumble-bee in one respect that of being largest when first hatched. In the first week after his nomination there was con siderable ratification fuss and noise. Gunpowder was burned in large quantities all over the country, and the Democratic papers were full of despatches describing 'enthusiastic meetings.' Since the end of the first week the 'boom' has gradually but steadily declined iu fervor and mag nitude. The piles of straw have burnt out and the blaze and heat have ceased. Reflection has set in. and men are asking each other in regard to General Hancock's fitness for a proper discharge of the great duties of the Presidential office. Business men who are Democrats have discovered that Huucock is no statesman, and that he has never studied the political affairs of the the nation and has no opinions based on information and reflection on any publio measure or policy, and that he is now too old to P i ! 1 S !
