KEAT1I, OF SCIIUYLKILL COUNTY. On BoTn Sides. An ckchango Bays : Last year the Democratic party, in order to get tho Votes of white men, took high ground against negro suffrage They eaid it was derogatory to the dignity of white men and against the Constitution. Ihey swore this was and ever should be a 'white man's government.' They played on this nirinir until It was worn out. They have 5 now changed tho tunc. They have secur- (ovcrnor.

The telegraph on Saturday morning last announced tho accidental shootiugof Hon. C. L. Vallandichatn by his own hands. Wo present' to our readers an obituary of tho deceased, and how tha accident occur "Ho was absent at Lebanon, defendin ono McGchah, charged with the murder ol one Meyers, at Hamilton some weeks ago. By comparing tho returns published in our last issue, it will bo seen that the can didates slaughtered at the late Democratic Convention were by a fair vote elected or nominated by majorities ranging from two to lour hundred. But as "there is many n slip between tho cup and tho lip," they ' unfortunately were compelled to submit. Tho candidates placed on the ticket are now endeavoring to bring bout aro concili- ntion.nnd urgcthera to "stick to the ticket." Many ot the old and consistent Democrats will probably begin to doubt tho sincerity of some of theso leaders, and begin to think that they are influenced nioro by tho love of oftlce than of principles. It looks to us itiul the old trick "Blick to tho ticket" has Lad it day, uud that Democrats arc begin ning to look more favorably upon men who work for principles than thoso who aro laying plans constantly to secure offices. and are ready to adopt any platform, mly so it ia wide enough to get them intra pay ing situation. The XorThCaroiiua Ku-Viux seem to have no regard-whatever for tho Demo cratic Varty oftno North. "While tho or gans of tho Northern Democracy aro itera ting and reiterating the Boothing story that all reports of outrages upon Republicans in the South arc merely political fustian, these indiscreet ruffians, absolutely regardless of partisan management, pull down and drag out n Republican printing office in Ruther ford County, capture a Republican Repre sentative to tho Legislature, beat him, and drum Win out of town, after making l.im promise to cease plaguing tho "Conserva tive" party, and bo play a variety of fan tastic tricks which arc all traceable direc tly to the Ku-Klux wing of tho Democracy of the South. All thin is naturally eSpec ted by those who aro familiar with the con- tlilion of thoso parts of tho South which have been described, but it is nam on newspapers and orators who have denied tho exi&tcnoo of anything like Ku-Klux. TrtAT $iM,600. It is very evident now that the County Commissioners aro deter mined to make the best of it this year. Last year they bad over 195,000 to Work on, and the present year it will probably go a thou sand or two higher. . .The amount reported by tho County Auditors for 1S70, was un collected taxes for 18G0 and previous years, $30,033 09. The amount of tax levied for 1370 is S55.919 43, making altogether 95, 553 42. Or this amount they report 834, 004 GS expended and 11,151 21 in tho bands of favorite collectors. After having this largo amount on hand they tell us that tho county is indebted 27,575 7G, on which interest is paid, whilo tho outstanding taxes show no interest. For 1871 wo learn that a tax of 7 mills has been levied, aud as tho valuation on property is much higher than previous years, it will run tho taxes up to about $50,000 00, which with tho 41,402, 21 outstanding will mako tho snug sum of over 97,000. Will the tax payers continue to uphold the Ring aud pay for the whistle 'at these rates ? Tue Pennsylvania Editorial Association met at AVilliamspoi t, on Wednesday of last weelu About ouo hundred editors, nc- compaiucd by their wives, from dillerent parts of tho Stale were present. During tho forenoon tho party kft the Herdic llouso for a visit to tho Boom. After din rioi tho Association met at Elliott's Aca demy of Music, and received a formal wel come from Mayor Perkins. Tho address of the Mayor was responded to by II. t Smith, of Lancaster, l'resident of tho Con vention. J. L. ltingwalt, read an essay ou "Newspapers," and a poem was ready by Mr. E. II. Mundy. In the evening a bail' quet was given at tho llerdic llouso. O. Thursday the party left on a visit for Wat- kin's tili'ii and Minneqna Springs. HOW AHETIIJC MlOJlTY FALLEN. The Democrats who supported the party and its nominations, from pi uiciplc, arc now very naturally indignant when they behold their loaders, without warning, and from motives of sheer policy, dropping opposi- tiou to utro suffrage, which was tho chiel corucrstouo of their political fabric. They had confidence In Mr. Wallace, and arc disappointed to see him eurreuder to the "abolition platform." The Cincinnati OuzetU says: "Unfor- tuuately, tho people of tlio .South applaud Duvia' iitU'ruinx's. Here is whuru tho dau ger lies, ami this u tho Indicator that poiuU to danger.

This is about tho most unblushing bid for negro votes that ever was made. Never was meat on the sham bles more the subject of barter and trade. No wonder honest Democrats are ashamed of such prostitution I Let us hear no more about 'Woolly Head Tarty' and "Negro Worshiners" from theso hiehtoned and patriotic Democrats I" had expressed a doubt as to tho possibility of Meyers having shot "himself in tho way described by Mr. Vnllandigham, when the latter remarked : "i will snow you in nan a second." He nicked un tho revolver, and. nuttiha it in his right-hand pocket, drew it out far enough only to keep the muzzle touching his body, and snapped tho hammer. Tho weapon exploded, ana sent its deadly mis sile into the abdomen, at a point almost corresponding with that in which Meyers was shot. Mr. Vallandisham immcdintclv exclaim ed that ho had taken up tho wrong pistol. Tho flash and report wero nlnrm enough for Mr. McBurney, who immediately sum moned assistance and despatched messen gers for physicians. Two revolvers wero on tue tame, ono loaded and the oilier unloaded. Unfortu nately, Mr. VallandiKham seized tho for mer, and in Ins eagerness to impress his surprised his friends and Rstounded,his ene mies.

WA. xu-u w.l 1 llkJ j 111 I 1 , uuu til .11-3 l-ll,-.! -IV.J.l l.v - limritCO I ' 1 Standing Committee of tho Democracy of idea hpon the mind of his friend, cocked -i i r -, i 1 1. T 7 7,. T?v.ii..-7 held a meeting at West Chester, on Thurs day of last week, to consider the action and platform of the late Convention at Harris burg. The "Ninth Resolution" was duly considered, and unanimously condemned as uncalled-for, time-serving and at war with tho settled policy of tho Democracy. Such, we understand, was the unanimous opinion of tho Committee, who also agreed that if this platform was endorsed by the candidates they could not receive tho votes of half tho Democratic party in tlie county, Thus far tho old line Democrats havo re ceived the "new departure" platform not only with, coldness but hostility. Having been educated1 to oppose negro suffrage, they consider that to bo consistent they must oppose it. The situation is ono cal culated to try their mettle. Consistency requires them to stand their ground. Party subserviency demand's them to change it, Mr. Wallace, aud tho wire-pullers at Har- risburg, say that tho success of the party demands that they shall take tho negro to their keeping. Principle whispers back tho lansuago of Hexby Clay : "I would rather bo right than successful." Tho situ ation is an embarrassing ono for the Democracy, the new platform lias not only left them , with nothing to stand on, but drives back into their old ranks all the Re publicans who were unwilling to swallow negro suffrage. Their opposition to tho Republican party has been ono of priuciplc especially on the negro suffrage question. But when their distinctive principles aro sacrificed by their leaders at Harrisburg, iu the mere hopo of power, no wonder that hundreds feel disposed to allow the Repub lican candidates to walk over tho course rather than by the'r votes to sanction tho schemes of treachery. The men who man aged the State Convention have shown that tho question of Negro Suffrage has been a mere catch-penny. They wore against Negro Suffrage last year they aru for it this year. Where they will be next year depends upon circumstances. They havo turned "faced right about." Many Demo crats have an old-fashioned idea that, on a question ofricjc,tliey cannot turn at the biddiug of political leaders. It Is cstini'UcH by Mr.- Dclmar that about 40,000,000 bushels of breadstuff's, or ouo-lhirtielh part of the total grain crop of the United Slates, is aunually made iuto whisky. The quantity of proof spirits ca pable of being extracted from a bushel of grain depends much upou tho skill of the distiller. As much as seventeen quarts has been produced from one bushel. Tho aver age iu good distilleries, wilh all the modern improvements, is from twelve to fourteen quarts ; but tho general avoraro in all the distilleries ia the country is much less, Strychnine and other powerful agents arc sometimes introduced in tho process of mnshing, for the purpose of increasing the production. Iu 1870 tho total Federal revenues from 6pirils, including produc tion, liceuse, stump, sale, aud all other taxes, amounted to 50,000,000. This leaves out of view fermeutcd liquors, such as beer and wiuc, and omits all custom duties, and dischareed tho weapon. Mr. Vallan digham shot himself with his own pistol, an improve Smith & Wesson, of thirty- two ennnre. Mr. Vallanditrhan. was In his 49th vear at tho time of his death, having been born in .Mew JLiiBbon, Uolumbianna county. Ohio, in 1822. Ho received a liberal edu cation at Jetlerson College, and spent a tew months in Maryland as a teacher. In 1810 he began the study of law, and in 1842 he was admitted to tho bar in Ohio. Ho en tered public lifo in 1845, being elected a member ot tlio Ohio Legislature, i rom 1847 to 1819 ho edited a Democratic iour- nal at Dayton, nnd from that time until his death he was a prominent, though rather erratic leader ot the democratic party, From State politics ho passed in 1850 to a more extended held, being in that memora ble year, when Buchanan was elected Pre sident, sent to Washington as a member of tho llouso ot Iteprcsentatives lrom his dis trict, and 1)0 served on the Standing Com mittee on Territories during the Thirty- uitn and jl mrty -sixth uongresses. lie was re-elected to the Thirty-seventh Concrcss. and became prominent as well as notorious i - i-1 , ... i - i . - uecuuftj ui uiH eugerunu uoiu ucicnse oi mo rebels and utter defiance of tho Govern ment of tho United States, llis utterances wero caught up by the Confederates as a sign of hope to them, which led Vallandig ham to further excesses. In 1803 he pass ed the limits of prudence, and was arrested by order of Genercl Ambrose E. Burusido for seditious utterances inside of the Union Hues, by publicly expressint; sympathy for those in arms against the Government of tho United States, and declaring disloval sentiment1? and opinions, with tho object and purposo of weakening the power of the government in its enorts to suppress an un lawful rebellion. Mr. Vallaudicham was tried by court-martial, General U, B. Pot ter presiding, nnd sentenced to close con finement at Fort Warren durum the con tinuance of the war. This sentence was changed by Presideut Lincoln to one of transportation across the rebel lines, which was executed by General Rosecraus. The Tub correspondent of the Philadelphia Evening Tclajrapli, accompaning the mem bers of the Press of that city to tho Penn sylvania Editorial Convention at William sport last week, in describing tlio scenery nlong tho Susquehanna says : "Along the banks of tho Susquehanna the scenery assumes a new loveliness. Its broad, placid waters aro farmed into glorious picture by tho grand contours ot Harrisburg. Further on, the graceful curves harden iuto severer maiesty, nnd palisade-like blulls rise from tho stream in long stretches of regular rock, looking like the vestigatcs ot the city wan girdling tho homo of some extinct -giant race. At each successive step in ascending tho river tho scenery is happily diversiucd, tho lulls at times assuming jrcntlo undulating curves and again risiug in harsher lines into pro portions of greater grandeur. Tho skies lent their best aid to heighten thr .harm by that succession of sunshine o d shadow which reveals every beauty in ' c landscape rich with the opblent vcrdur jfjune. Tlio wheat-fields cleanicd with .1 the soft and lustrous intermingling s ides that mark its approaching ripeuc s, and tho oats swayed in gentle ripples of silvered greenery whilo along tho roadsido a summer snow of elder blossoms showed an unwonted luxuriance. In tho midst of tho wido ex panse of tho waters of tho Susquehanna, lunuiueruuio uny lsmims were ciuuieu iu creencst crass or fancied thicket, and the luxuriant verdure spread on every side un til even that most prosaic ot all utilities, the towpalb, brichtcncd into a gleaming thread of green braided into the silvery ribbons of tho water upon cither sido. jsear .Nor thumberland a rugged landscape answers httingiy to tho name, and tho mountain sides are ploughed with -rifts that beneath tho softening ellect of distance show like neits oi rich, warm rrown gleaming lrom between the fine fonst trees, and to corn icle tho faultless panorama a sunset of golden haze rested upon tho mountains, changing them into i purple tint as rich as t is rare, and ushering in that lovelies oi nil hours when over tho green meadow stretches the golden rays of the lingering ight, and the stars slowly marshal into rank through the shedes of twilight. J. L. The Pennsylvania State Medical Society was iu session at Williasporl last week. Dr. G ross, tho celebrated Philadelphia Surgeon, delivered an ablo lecture on AVednosday eveuing. On Thursday a lulc of the society which prohibited, ou pain of expulsiou from tho bociely, consultation with womeu phyeieinuH, or with thoso wen who consul ted with them or taught them medieiuo, was resciuded by a vote 50 to 40. Mauy of the leadiug aud ablest members of tho Association advocated tho rescinding of this rule. The Couvcutlon adjourned on Fri- ilay.

All pcr&oiis who wero in tho habit of declaring sympathy for the cnomy wero to bo nirested, tried, aud, if louuu guilty, sent beyond tho lines into tho lines of their friends. Vnllandigham was, however, determined to be a martyr, and, iiiereioie, insisted ou the Uonlederates con sidering and treating him as a nrisouer of war, he not perceiving the absurdity of tho proposition. The arrest of Vnllaudichim caused great excitement among the Demo crats, aud numerous protests were tor- warded to Presideut Liucoiu, who in an swer to tho Albany protest, thus defined the position ot the government. "Air. v aiiiindigiuim avows his hostility to tho war on tho part of tho Union, aud ins arrest was made because ho was labor ing, with some ellect, to prevcut the rais ing of troops, to encourage desertions from tho army nnd to leave tho rebellion without an adequate forco to suppress it.

If Mr. Yal liiudighuin was not damaging tho military power of the country, then his arrest was niado on mistake ol lact, which 1 would be glad to correct on reasonably satisfacto ry evidence.

Because tho Republican nartv. as a political organization, has been faithful to tho country, defended its lifts against its en emies,, and maintained its authority when it was cicmeu oy traitors.

Because if there bad not boon a Re nubllcan nartv we would not now have a government. The strength and patriotism of the Kcpuoiican party ot the land, and the unwavering devotion of their leaders, alono saved the Union and perpetuated tho government. 4th? Becauso,if there had not been a De mocratic party, slavery would never have attempted rebellion, lho covenant into which the slave-masters encouraged them with the hope that treason would bo suc cessful, as they believed, tho Democratic party 'of tho North would be strong enough to prevent troops from going South to con tend with rebel organizations. 5tb. Becauso the material resources of the nation have always been protected by Republican policy. Tho labor which is now prosperous owes its vitality to tho in vigorating policy ot ltcpuuiicau rule. Gib. Because tho influence which used slavery to crush a frco government is now wining to allow pauper labor to destroy free labor. 7th. Because tho only reliance which the creditors of the country havo for the secu rity ot their investments, is in tho itcpubli- can party being kept in power, ucpudia- tion is ns sure to follow Republican defeat as rebellion was the direct result ot JJemo crntic teaching. bth. lsecausc our system ol internal im provement, now so potent iu its influence for good, would, by Democratic victory, become tho direct prey of a corrupt lobby, ever ready to use the representatives of tho poople in furtherauce cf schemes to plunder private and public enterprise. 9th. Because the Democratic party, as tho advocate of direct taxation, would re store tho tax on real estate, repealed at the instanco of a Republican Government. 10th. Because tho Republican party has secured for the American peoplo a foreign policy by which wo now wield moro power in Europe than our government ever pos sessed iu the old world, by reason of which millions of our bonds are held by European creditors. 11th. Because the Democratic party hay ing been and yet being ready to mako a merchandise of human ilesh.would not hcis- tate to barter in the honor of the govern ment, once they get it in their possession 12th. Because tho Republican nartv can bo trusted, having been tested and found faithful. State Journal. K tale of Elisabeth Jonea, Dec'd.

Dr. Connolly had been for some two or three day on a licriodical "spree," and Saturday and yesterday he took occa sional noses ot morphine to quiet his nerves. About 4 r. M. yesterday lie entered the bedroom of himself and wife, on tho rear o! tho second floor, taking his two children with him and locking the door, llis wife soon afterwards endeavored to enter, but without success. Tho police, warned by the neighbors entered Ihe house about 7 o'clock, and forced open the door. The room being dark the gas was lighted, when a horrible spec tacle- was presented. " On the bed lay the father anil children, nil dend, and literally bathed in blood. Tho children had noth ing but their night clothing on. The fath er was clad in a white undershirt, covered with blood, while a pair of red flannel drawers served to add to tho ghastliness of liis appearance, leading ono to believe, at tho first clancc, that his entire clothing was soaked in blood from head to fool. Tho head-board was spotted with blood, and the bed clothing and mattresses soak ed. A rubber ball, with which the chil dren had apparently been amusing them selves, all bloody, lay on the lied. The Wen pou the lunatic had used also lay on tho lied. It was a carving knife, with a blade sixteen inches in length, aud tailoring gradually to a line point. The throats of both children had been cut, their iugulnr veins being severed. The throat of the father was cut nearly from ear to car, and there wero besides several stab wounds in the breast in the vicinity of the heart. A physician examined the bodies, and an nounced that death had 'occurred several hours previous. Mrs. Connally was ren dered insane for tho time by the terrible discovery.
