AMES, ChairmanM St. Marys, Sept, 21, 1881. The Nation's Bereavement. Monday night the sad news thatH President Garfield was no more flashed over the telegraph wires, sending a thrill of sadness over the world, and casting a gloom of sorrow and sadness over the hearts of his countrymen. The Chieftain is dead. The- great heart that beat BOjjworthy to lead Republicans to victory niddv in thnt mnnlv hnsnm 5 fnrovmlaiw led her regiments to war. Hi.- nobly in that manly bosom is forever silenced. The prayers and tears of a mighty nation were of no avail in staying; the edict of fate. By the cowardly hand of an assassin is he; whom his country loved, and the whole earth praised, laid low. The mighty public sympathy goes out to that aged mother, that loving, brave, noble wife, those gentle children, for their sorrow is our sorrow, their be reavement is the nation's affliction. The mourning draperies, tolling bell, flags at half-mast, and men! gathered together iu little groups, discussing the sad news with bated breath are but the outward indica tion of that great sorrow which is too deep for expression in words. Well may the newspapers appear with inverted rules for no such afflic tion has visited this Nation since the immortal Lincoln fell by the assas sin's hand. In sackcloth and ashes, with sorrow so great that other sor-J rows seem small by comparison, we mourn the death of this great and good, this grand and noble man so soon to bo onnfifWl to flip kvm!inr e ., . .I, fSsent the people, the power behind theK'scued from their homes, peered into ot the silent tomb. Although Hth rone.

The lesson of his struggles and triumphs, his manhood and noble character shall for ages inspire the hearts of the youth of the land to lives of nobleness and right. Immortal Garfield, in your death there I added another name to the galaxy ofi bright immortals who will forever be cherished and honored while the bright starry banner shall proclaim to the nations our freedom and our strength. Lincoln and Garfield, our martyred dead. Burial of the President.

Davies, of Bradford, whoQ is competent in every way not only toll be State Treasurer, but to be the Chieifl .Magistrate of this Commonwealth. Weeks ago he was suggested by the best men in the Commonweulth. and leading men in this very capital said they would not oppose him. In two weeks tnings nave taken a different turn. Nobody Knows now, but it has been done. Gentlemen, don't grind us between the. upper and the uethei uillslone. Third. The vote resulted In 157 foi Bai'y and 81 for Davies. Genera! Fisher, of Chester, was at once on hU feet, and he surprised the convention with a fiery speech, recounting Gen ral Daily's military record and pro posing that the nomination be made unanimous. General Fisher's speed; coming from a Davies man and a thinking county was just the sort of thing needed to stir up the whole con vention and send the delegates home to open an aggressive Bally campaign. He spoke as follows: Mb Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention:.! stand before; vou as one of the representatives ol Chester county, of 10.000 Republican voters, sent, litre under instructions to ast my vote for the nomination of Senator Davies for Treasurer of the Common wealth of Pennsylvania, and you will permit me to state tnai hi mv opinion these Instructions were t he earnest desires of almost every one Rlr.r 11.0.0 in noo.

While I may be of the opinion that the manner in which his nomi nation was pressed, and may feel that Jthe masses would have preferred that the choice of this convention had been 8enotor Davies, I am bound to acknowledge that I have carefully watched the movements of his friends, and they were, so far as my knowl edge goes, only the ordinary, earnest efforts to succeed, and having been successful and their choice having heen so eminently deserving in ca pacity aud integrity, and finding In hiiu one who as a member of the gal lant old 8th of the Reserves who at Mechanicsburg from the burning noonday sun to late in the night bore the assault of and pushed back the serried hosts of those that wore tin ray, and tho next morning at Gaines Mill through the long Bummer day thirty thousand strong held in cheek amidst terrible slaughter seventy-five thousand of the enemy; and with or ganization unbroken again as the forlorn hope to cover the rear of the old army of the Potomao, stood a wall of fire at Charles City Cross Roads until by overwhelming numbers they were overcome. But without enum erating, we find General Bally throughout the war was the patriotic, brave and gallant soldier. Thus pre sented to up, I cannot but believe it the pallid lips of him to whom we have this day sent our Inmost sympa thies could speal he would bid us all ratify theuction of the majority of the convention, and I feel that the ten thousand citizens of Chester county, whose representative I am to-day those whom no other ten thousand are more intelligent and patriotic who gave of their blood and their H.vuuin uau, wuusc wiiuiu iiraiwwcui . . . e a i - - ut for their country aud its defenders! when assailed by traitor hordes, that these ten thousand men, were theyj here to speak, would say make tliel action of the convention unanimous,! and I therefore so move.

All along the evidences of suffering were plainly depicted in the worn. haggard faces of the people, many of; whom, with the few small articles the members of the committee as they stepped from the cars; but at no time was there such evidences of distress as at this place At the depot were over; two hundred homeless persons, women and children predominating, and when the train stopped aud a member of the committee announced that food and clothing had been brought for them, it was with difficulty that were restrained from grasping bearing away the several packages a: they were put on the platform. It is almost impossible to give an adequate idea of the condition of the people and the county in this section; but it can be asserted now that the! true state of affairs has not been ex aggerated in previous accounts. As- has already been stated, rain fell for nearly three hours Thursday eveuing, extinguishing the fires, and thi morning another welcome shower came, entirely extinguishing tue imoldering heaps, and precluding the possibility of any further fires in the near future.

Wo have the pleasure of recording the fact tht prof. T. II. Eaton, brother of Mrs. T. K. Lltch, of this place, and principal of the Forbes School, Pittsburg, by his heroic con duct saved a lady from drowning at IChautauqua Lake Saturday before last, while stopping at that delightful resort. . It appears that on Saturday evening the Jubilee singers gave a concert on the boat. Mrs. Eaton and others jwent with the party, but the Profes a . . . i, ji j . sor, not leeiuig wen, uiu not go When the boat returned to the pier however, he Was there to meet his wifo. As the boat was siding up slowly to the dock, a lady whose name has not transpired, fell from it into the water, and most assuredly J would have beeu drowned, had It not been for Prof. Eaton's presence of mum ana courage. He at once jumped from the dock into the water and then, securing a hold upon one of the timbers of the dock, he thrust out his leg, so that the lady could catch hold of his foot. This she did, and then ensued an exciting scene. The? boat was closing in and there was danger in two ways to both the par tics in the water; from being crushed between the boat and the dock, and from being drawn beneath the boat. Mr. Eaton is a slightly built man, andg sixty years of age, While the lady was twice bis weight. Although a good iwinimer he was afraid to release his hold on the dock, as he felt he would be unable to support her in the water. Observing the situation some gentle men were enabled to reach him and hold to his hands until a rope was se cured. This was thrown to the lady. She managed to tie it under her arms, aid thus both she aud Mr. Eaton were drawn from their perilous situa tion. Mrs. Eaton did not know who the rescuer of the lady was until the whole thing was over, sopposiug the laring man was the unknown lady's husband. The act was a brave one for i man of Prof. Eaton's years to at leuipt, but at all events he is lionized it Chautauqua, and is receiving praise from all who witnessed the affair. Shooting a Well.

Fully Ave hundred persons, u! large portion of them being stranger In the city, were present. Aside from this every convenient poiut in the Aty was occupied by citizens inter ested in such displays. The ladies es pecially were numerous. Some of them having lived iu the oil regions lormany years and for the first time: 3-razed upon a well in the first act of: emitting fluid after receiving a doseFjtyom Long Branch to Washington as 1 ., ! fill. ,1 h'i - ... of glycerine. The well was com pleted yesterday at 1,500 feet and thi.- morning contained about 700 feet ofi fluid. Sixty quarts of Robert's best were used aud were inserted by the efficient Singleton, one of the regu lars. During the process of lowering the shot the pcoplo occupied couven shade having sweltered to an al iug extent in climbing the hill.

And aiifeJ iged Teutou chimed in, "I vood not huf misst it for fife tollers, py shim many." The shooting of another well in the city would undoubtedly bring out 1,000 people. The weatheroloclsts have at last found out the cause for the intense heat and drouth of the past ten weeks. They say that hereafter for some years iwe snail liavo cooler weather and more rain. The cause of this change is thus accounted for: The sun under goes changes, and the period of these changes is from 11 to 13 years. Dur ing this period tho number of spots on Jthe sun undergoes a gradual change Jt'rom their minimum to their maxi inum number, tho heat beiug greatest Iwhen the spots are the most numer ous; aud as this year the spots have arrived at their maximum number land will hence diminish, we may look Sfor coolersummers and more moisture thereafter.
