"Record" The Jitorof tho "Vvatsontown Record is cvi sjcntly frightened, ftuil entertains fenrs that Homo developments will be rrmde in regard to the doings of some of his friends, and therefore tries to divert the Attention of the people by making false charges. Spcakiug of the ecnlp department in tho Commis sioners' Office, ho says : "This yeftr wo Cud that instead of a reduction in this pur ticular branch of mir county Affairs, we find tho expenses largely Increased and, of course, these who voted with a View (as they, Imagined) to rcduco tho expenses, have been grossly imposed upon. . Now, the qucslien presents itself who is respon sible? Certainly not the Democrat." Sure enough, if Democrats arc not respon sible for this increase., who is responsible ? CerLiiulv tho Republicans cannot be re sponsible), as they had only been iu office two moiuha previous to making out tho re port. Will our friend John etato whero this responsibility is to be placed if the Democrats who had control of rcAtifrq for ten months during lastj year are uot respon sibleY . Tho present Board of Commis sioners we believe is composed of three as honorable men as ever graced, that office. Due of tho first acts of tho" Commissioners after organizing the new Board was to close the vaults on the member of the King, who gathered daily in that office to dictate to the Commissioners and allow them to ruu the offices, mill threatened if ll.cy did not comply with their requests to have the Democratic rarty to cast them overboard. Tho skunk business also received attention, and orders were refused on unreliable cer tificates from members of the Ring residing away from town, aud certificates from jus tices are mora closely scrutinized as to their genuineness before orders arcranted. This has had the effect to reduce the traffic to some extent. This action on the part of the Commissiouerj is probably what hurts the oditoi of the Record, and hence iiis great cry and no wool. The stoppage of the sctlp traffic from Montour county Appears to be death to the tri-pod editor 'of the Record. The editor of the Record Also says : "Every office in the Court House but nnc is controlled by Republicans. A Republi can Bench and Court, a Republican Trea surer, Sheriff and Board of Commissioners, .and behold, there is au enormous increase t of expense. What are we coining to V Is tho county to bo made bankrupt ? " This is nrobftblv the best thine he could I ,, ; ... p .... ! tax-payers to the conditiou of our county affairs, which will be found to be getting into a better shape than they have been for more than ten years past, and will find that there is no clanger now of bankruptcy. When tho Republican officers assumed their duties they found matters in a de plorable state. Tho Treasury was bank rupt, not a cent having been turned over to the new Treasurer, while nearly tight thousand dollars were found to bo in the bauds of his predecessor. An indebted- isess of the county of some thirty thousand j dollars was resting upon the lax-payers, nnrl anmo fnrr v-nno thuiifs.and ilr.llnrs nf out. ! staudiug taxes were left in tho hands of collectors for them to speculate upon. Surely that looked more like bankruptcy than it dot s now, when the -outstanding tax duplicates previous tc, have almost all been compelled to b,c paid into tho Trea sury, and the exposes in every quarter been reduced, asd no more charges aro made to tax collectors for duplicates, nor fifty to sevcAty-five dollars paid for making out duplicates, .tc. This has all been ae eomplkrhcd by the present Board of Com tuissioners. If our cotemporary will have .patience these facts will prove themselves beforo long, aud the people of tho' county will find that they are not as much deceived as this wise Solomon aud great expouuder j of tho late Democratic Court House Ring nucleus i.iev tire I Since all these changes have been made j vc find that the county does not owe cue dollar to the State, and nevertheless the Couuty Treasury was bankrupt when tho present incumbent took charge of it, the couuty order b.aye been promptly paid when prcsepU'd, and we wee no more county ordojrs oiired for salo on our streets at a dis count.

The news of the sudden death of General Geary has been everywhere received with expressions r-frrgm: Whatever navelf been tho faults of the deceased during bis eventful life, iJL must be conceded that ho possessed rnatty qualities that will place him in a much higher niche in the temple of fame than those who through malice and disappointment, hyena-like pounced upon the (read hero before his remains were con signed to tho tomb.- We wore no admirer of Governor Genry, And did hot approve of a number of Ids acts as Governor of this Commonwealth, But these shortcomings do not justify such ruthless Attacks on his character nt this moment, when every in stinct of humanity would, seem, to sympa thize with hi .afflicted family. Governor Geary's record is a remarkable one, highly creditable, if uot brilliant, both civil au military... Ho distinguished himself not only in the war of tho Rebellion, but in the Mexican war, nnd his services were ac knowledged by such great chieftains as General Scott and General Sherman. Gov. Geary had his weak points, but no one questions his patriotism or his bravery and his success as a soldier. ' . . DEATH O - EX-JoWkXOK JOHN W. C.E.1HT. . llAttR&BVROi February ' H.-The city' was throwij ' Into great excitement this morning by the announcement thai ex Governor John W. Geary had died while nt thu breakfast table in his private resi dence. ' Yesterday afternoon ut -1 o'clock the deceased returned from New York, whero he had been for several days attend ing to private business. Iu the evening a number of visitors called and remained iu pleasant conversation for several hours, and after they departed the deceased aud Mrs. Geaiy retired, the family alt retiring also for the night. Xolhiug unusual was noticed iu the ap pearauco or bearing of the ex-Governor, lie wns iu line spirits, conversed freely wi.h his visitors, and wheu be laid his bead upou his pillow was iu comparatively as good health a6 he ever was in his life. At the usual hour the family rose. Governor Geary was in the parlor with the children, readiug the morning papers, and in pleas ant conversation with the whole family, until breakfast was announced. At the bieakfast table the Governor occupied one end and Mrs. Geary the cither end of tho table, the child reu being ranged on both sides. While Mrs. Geary was encaged iu helping the children nearest herself, the Governor occupied himself in doing the same with lb nee near him, and just as hu was ia the act of handing some butter to ouo of them his head fell heavily on his bo som, which Mis. Geary immediately no ticed and rose to assist him, ono of the el der children starting for a physician living next door. In the meantime) the servants came to the assistance, and when the doc tor arrived, which was not more than three minutes from the time ot tho attack, the pulse of the man Imd ceased to beat, aud life was cxtiuct. Ho uttered but ouo deep llKl "eavy sig i, inter ... ...aiu ; u , .... . i i - - i. - c. u l l Pit .. I. :,. bnsm and died seemingly without acute pain. In a very short time the news of Una sad event spread to all parts of tho city, aud soou the streets were tilled with u.ixiotis inquirers, seeking cither for dtullor cor roboration of the bewildering announce ment. The corroboration spe-edily came in the tolliug of the bells of the cily, the tiriug of signal guus from iio arsenal, and a black streamer flor.liag from tho flug stnfl'ou the dome of ;l;u Capitol. Mrs. K. W. Laiiibcrtou was tho first of the neighbors to go to the assistance of the bereaved tiiinily, and when she. entered the dining room ibe discovered the prostrate j form ot the itovemor on the tloor, he hav ju! fui;wl fom thu chair, and Mrs. Geary giviug orders with great pretence of mind SOU COOllK'BS to paillC-SlncKell servants U!1U ! the older children. She refused to have i the corpse takeu up stairs uud directed itn removal to the parlor, lor ttio reason tnai the cx-Govcrnor was largo in form, and therefore too heavy to bo carried to tho second tioor. Other neighbors cuietod and bore the lifeless form to the parlor. Mis. Geary soon after broke down with the load of her u miction, aud was taken to her chamber. Among the first to cJl at the residence so suddenly filled with mourning, was Governor llnrtranft, who offered every pos sible service nnd warm condolence to tho sadly overwhelmed family, and was fol lowed by Mrs. Jlartranft, who devoted her self iu teudcrly consoling Mrs. Geary. Col. Jordan, lata Secretary of State, and Mrs. Jordau, were niso speedily present, and were assiduous iu their attentions. Mrs. General Russell and many other ladies, aud a great number of tho personal friends of tho deceased, called to express their sympathy aud tender whatever service they could. AX OrriCIAT.

When tho defences before the City of Mexico were stormed, the Twenty-flist lost its colonel (Roberts), and Colonel Geary succeeded to tho chief com mand, receiving his commission soon after the triumphal entry of Scott into the Capi tal of Mexico. As soon es peace was declared, Colonel Genry returned to his native State, intend ing to resumo his profession of engineering. IIo was, however, induced in 1849 to abandon it, and accept from Frosidcnt Folk the appointmout of postmaster at.tho newly- established city ot San Franciscru and eutored upon tho duties of his position in April of that year. In the month of August following, he wus unanimously elected First AlcnM-'ji San Francisco.and at the close of . the yfhr was ro-clectod ' to the position by a- vote of ,7,10H to 12, .
