Mr, Epitor: Since last writing, our city
has assumed a passive quietness which, though
of late somewhat disturbed, in not, by any means,
foreign to it. How long thin state of things
will last, depends, more or less, on the quantity
of the crathur vended within our Milesian pre
cincts. I might say, those carnivals of broken
heads, for which this city is noted, appear to be
of a periodical nature, receiving their stimulous
from the pay desks of our many corporations:
verifying, in this instance, that not exactly "the
love," but the receiving "of money"i s "the
root of all evil."
The elections, which so generally excited the
attention of the people, being decided, local af
fairs will have to fill the wonderful void the
decision has created. The protracted eclebra
t"ou of t?ie r;!oi-:oiii victor; , and terrible defeat, j
I mentioned in my last, can hardly be commen
ded, when carried to bo alarming an extent,
even though circumstances might warrant a
slight innovation on the laws of sobriety. Still,
it has not been unattended with some favorable
results, as I hear of quite a number who now
contemplate joining our temperance organiza
tions. These decisions were, no doubt, promp
ted by their awaking on the morning following
the celebration with throbbing heads and tremu
lous hands ; when undoubtedly they would, ve
ry feelingly have concurred with the English
man who. havinsr participated in a eimilar
'cruise," found himself in a similar condition,
and, while gazing on a pair of lazy porcine,
soliloouixed thus : "No 'cad 'ache in the morn-
in' for you, 'appy 'ogs. 'Appy 'ogs : 'ow I wish
I vas a 'og."

The most inhuman deed I have heard of
lately, was the placing of an infant, tied up in

The Pike County Melee.
We noticed some weeks ago, the shoot
ing of Mr. Lyon, in Lehman township,
Pike County, Pa., near Uoose ronu.
We extract from the Milford Herald the
following additional particulrrs : Mr.
jyon had been attending to his daily la
ors. and returned to his home rather
ate in the evening : his wife, being of a
quarrelsome disposition (and at various
. . . ' . v . 1 . . .
times makinz threats tnat she wouiu pui
an end to his life), again commenced to
abuse and illtreat him. After having
several words with each other, My. Lyon
retired for the night, leaving his wife,
and a little son six years of age, in the
iitchen. Mrs. Lyon, not satisfied with the
words they had had, went to near neigh
bor s house and procured a load ol buck
shot, statiug to them that there was
deer iu the swamp near the house, and
that she wautcd to shoot t. Ihe buck
shot was given her and she returned to
her house, nothing being mistrusted by
the neighbor.
Mrs. Lyon took the double-barreled
shot-gun belonging to her husband, and
loaded the barrels, putting seven shot in
each, and proceeded to his chamber,
....a
where she found him on his back asleep
She took deliberate aim and discharged
the contents of one barrel into the head
of her husband, shooting out both eyes
and otherwise injuring him. In this con
dition he laid for two days, without any
assistance whatever, until a neigbor hap
pening to pass by, stopped in and found
Mr. L. in a helpless condition. 11c at
once called a physician. It is rumored
that Mrs. L. contradicted herself several
times, when questions relative to the
deed were asked at times statiug that
her son did it, and then giving different
versions. She is now in the jail at Mil-ford.

of mauy has become a fact. A Uuion Dc
pot is to be built at the junction of the
four railroads iu Phllipsburg. Engineers
have laid out the gronud plain and it is
proposed to erect a buildiug larger than
any in this section. One of the Engi
neers informs us that it will be after the
plan of the Uuion Depot in Chicago. It
will stand between the dopot now used
by the Morris & Essex and Central roads
iu Phillipsburg. Changes of trains and
the shifting of cars will take place there
instead of the Lehigh Valley depot across
the river. This will place Phillipsburg
among the great railroad stations along
this route of the West. Free Press.

GRANT'S MAJORITY REPUBLICAN CON
fiRESSMAN,
Raleigh, Nov. 14. Ry a close count
of the vote iu the Vllth District, Jones.
Republican, is said to be elected by "a
majority of from 200 to o'JO votes. The
Democratic had claimed this Distaict for
Durham by a large majority. This leaves
a gain of only one Democratic Congress
man. The State will probably give Grant
12,000 majority.
Two politicians of Indianapolis made
an agreement that if Seymour was elect
ed President, J M was to take a wife
ia six weeks or forfeit 5500, and if Grant
was elected (; was to do the same.
The gentlemen are both "old bachelors,"
and the question with the loser now is a
pecuniary one, whether $500 paid out
and no marriage won't in the long run,
be a better investment than a marriage
with numerous 500 bills in the future.
A ghastly scientific discovery is report

almost without causing them any pain.
Withiu the space of a few minutes four
rabbits, three dogs and a goat were kill
ed in this manner. The most remark
able thiug about this "killing made easy"
is the fact that it leaves absolutely no out

A New-York Repeater in Rhiladeipliia,
Forfeiture of Bail.
PniLADKLiMUA, Nov. 1C Michael
Fitzgerald was brought here from New
York, on Friday, on a requisition, and on
Saturday he gave bail to answer a charge
of illegal voting. His case was called,
this morning, but he did answer, and his
bail was declared forfeited. Mr. Maun,
representing the prosecution, said that
when the application for a countermand
was made on Friday he feared this re
sult the flight of the defendant. He
did not at the time believe that there
was any sincerity in tho application, uor
did he suppose that atty effort had been
made to secure the attendance of wit
nesses, whose absence was the ground of
a continuance on triday. Now if the bail
be sued out and the money secured there
will be another effort to ootam the man
for trial. Judge Peirce directed the bail
to be at once sued out.
Reverdy Johuson, who was appointed
juimster to rngianu a tew montl:3 ago,

such men as Lord Wharncliffe, Roebuck,
and Laird, the builder cf tho Alabama
all bitter and persistent enemies of the
United States during tho Rebellion. He
chief pleasure seems to consist in toady
ing to these aristocratic monarchists and
allies of slavery. His conduct and
speeches are criticised severely by the Li
berals of Great Britain, no "less than by
sensible men at home. They are mon
befitting the representative of Frauce or
Russia than the ambassador of a republi
can sovernraeut. Even Seward is sick
of him. His recall, if it does not come
sooner, will certainly be one of the first
acts of Grant's administration. Bucks

Lafayette College. We took a look
this morning at the new buildings now
being erected for students in the rear of
the main College building. Ono of them
is nearly finished, while the other two
will be ready for occupation by January
next. Each ot thcrn allows two rooms
for two occupants, one for study and ono
for sleeping and it is intended. to have
such also the headquarters of an eating
club, a dining room being provided. Be
tween the new buildinps aud the Astro
nomical Observatory the ground will be
leveled off and used for a campus, whilor
in the rear of them a gymnaium and ten
pin alley will be erected. We learn that
work on the new wing of the main Col
lege building will certainly be resumed
in the Spring, and that in connection
there with the building itself will be rough
casted or other-wise improved. Substan

Philadelphia, Nov. 16. This morn
ing the case of Michael Fitzgerald,
brought hero From 2s ew lork on a re
quistitiou, and charged with illegal vot
ing, was called. The defendant failed to
answer. The bail entered into on Satur
day was ceclarei forfeited. Mr. Mann,
who represented the prosecution, stated
that when the application for a continu
ance on Friday wa3 made he feared this
result, the flight of the defendant. He
did not believe at the time that there was
any sincerity in the application, and did
nut believe any effort had been made to
secure the attendance of witnesses, whose
absence was the ground of a continuance
on Friday. Now is the bail sued out and
the money secured, there will be another
effort to obtain the man for trial. Judge
Pierce directed the bail to be sued out
at once.
The State of New York, outside of the
city and its suburbs, gave more than 70,
000 Republican majority at the late elec
tion. This was met and overcome by a
still greater vote on the other side by the
ruling party in the city. These apposite
interests, so strongly manifested, have giv
en rise to a proposition for a division of
the btate, so that the city of New lork
and a few of the adjoining counties may
be set apart as a separate and homogene
ous Commonwealth. As tho matter now
stands, the city rules the State, fastening
all the corruptions of tho municipal gov
ernment upon tho couutry district, nearly
all of which are entirely distiuct from it
iu population aud material interests. J

Commissioner Rollins has issued a cir
cular calling the attention of all officers
of the internal revenue to the regulations
for the marking and branding of casks
or packages of distilled spirits. All of
ficers are notified that they must be strict
ly complied with. Gaugers will hereaf
ter be held responsible for the securo at
tachment of stamps for distilled spirits.
Ylter the stamp is affixed it should be
cancelled as prescribed, and then covered
with transparent varnish. Collectors and
other receiving officers, are instructed to
detain or seize any and all casks or pack
ages of spirits guaged after the receipt of
theso instructions, which are not marked
aud branded as required by law.
infTbe Democrasy are fearful that
Grant may tarn out a second Johuian.
We'll risk it.

The Coal Speculation. 1 he recent
suddeu advance in the price of coal is un
accountable, and cannot be referred to a
deficient supply ; for we larn that there
is more than sufficient to meet im nediatc
demands. There is said to be a t all fore-
at work in the mines. There is no in
crease in the rates of transportation ; an J
there is a gojd prospect of a contiued lib
eral yield, for some time to come. The?
rise uudoubtebly results from speculative
causes, aud is, to come ext:nt, bused upon
the probable necessities of the people ;
who, it is expected, will become alarmed
at the sudden advauce, and, like stock
speculators in a "bull market," will rush
in to buy, for fear that by waiting they
will have to pay more.
In our oriuion, those who are actuated
by such considerations will regret that
they did cot wait for the fall, which is
sure to come, an ! that too beicr.) long.
