It appears that a secret meeting of the Democratic leaders of that State is to be held at an early date, for the purpose of "fixing up things" in which, however, there is nothiug particu larly 6trangc, less than a dozen men hav ing made the nominations of that party in that State for the past fifteen or twenty years. This year, however, there seems to be an unwonted freedom of political action among the rank and file, and some of the papers are threatening that if the manipu lations of the manager's don't suit, there will be a general kicking over the traces, even if things should thereby go to smash. Altogether, there is a promise of quite a lively Democratic funeral in New Jersey, next Xovember. Skvkral papers in the Eastern States, arc regarding the chances of President Grant's re-election for a third term, a pos sibility. They certainly cannot understand the sentiment of the people on th"is subject Custom, at times stronger than law, has limited the occupancy of the Presidential chair by one man two terms. An effort to hold it longer would be regarded as an usurpation, and would be signally rebuked. If President Gratt, through the sycophan cy and flattery of the men about him, has in any manner gotten the idea into his head that he can be re-elected for a third term, we oeg of him, fur the sake of his good name, to thrust it away at once. And if he should, unhappily which we cannot believe harbor the thought that the money-bag men of the rountry can keep him in power, he will find what a delusion he li:is cherished. Should the issue come between the power of wealth and the power of the jtcople, which would be the case should the President again be a candidate, the farmer would, politically, be ground to powder. inraiBlinbuliv I. I.... f.is tniS COUUvijr on a visit to Home, paid a visit to the Pope a few days ago, and were kindly received. Speeches were made, sympathizing with the Holy Father in his troubles, and con demning "the tyrannical persecutions of the Church of braggarts false to liberty and estranged from God." The Pope replied, expressing great pleasure with the marvel ous development of the true faith in the New World, and yet regretting that "false religion prevailed on a large part of that continent, and we must pray for the restor ation of all to the true faith." The "pil grims," although all, or nearly all, we be lieve, of the priesthood, are having a right good and jolly time ; aud that they have enough of the world's goods U evident from the valuable presents they are making the Pope. Sunday Licjroit Selling in Puila delphia. After the lieutenants of police had made their usual reports to tlie Chief of Police in Philadelphia on Monday last. Mayor Stokley called them before him and made some remarks upon the subject of wiling liquor on Sundays. He 6aid that in paKKing about the city the night before he noticed that many taverns were ojtcn arid doing business. In some places he could see from the street men engaged in drinking at the bar. This, he said, was defy ing the law and the proper authorities. He therefore issued instructions to the lieuten ants to go out with the sergeants on Sunday evening next, go through their districts, and where they see taverns or saloons open ly engaged in doing business, to endeavor to collect evidence enough to take the pro prietors into Court and make them amena ble to the penalties of the law. He would hold each of the lieutenants responsible for I he proper observance of the Sunday law in (heir respective districts. Latent The Ccbuency Hill. The conference committee on the bank bill, lield several sessions on Wednesday last, and decided to abandon the bill agreed to by the previous committee in toto, and re port a brief bill providing for the distribu tion of national bank currency to an amount not exceeding fifty-five millions, fixing the limit of legal traders to tlie present amount of three hundred au4 eighty-two millions of dollars, and prohibiting a reduction of that amount by tlie Secretary of the Trea sury. The Chicago Time gives the Democracy op as hopeless. It says : "There is no longer any twe iu trying to convince the political Bourbon the world moves. He will not be convinced, because the ouly world he is conscious of begins and cuds in himself. He knows that he is a 'Demo crat.' He knows that the two articles of his unchangeable creed are 'For the spoils,' and 'against tua damn nigger ;' and there fore he knows that these are the two arti cles in the ereed ot every 'Democrat.'

Herald thinks that the politi cal preponderance of New York State is be coming so great that it will soon be said that "As New York goes so goes the Un iou." The Herald U very much mistaken in this, as coming elections will convince it. For the past twelve years the East has exerted more influence on the country than it will ever do again. The editors, capi talists and politicians of that section have been extremely short-sighted in their pub lic course, the past year, and have given a fatal blow to eastern supremacy. We shall be agreeably mistaken if they have uot laid the foundation for the combination of other sections that will cause the pillars of the political power of the East to crumble about the heads of men who in the pride of their money and influence imagine that they are beyond the reach of the people. The municipal authorities of Salt I-ake City, the Mormons, in fact, have had a tilt with the military authority of the United States on the question of arresting soldiers, and have been beaten. In a case that came up where a magistrate of the Terri tory refused to deliver up a soldier who was imprisoned. General Morrow, acting on his decision of the Judge Advocate and his own sense of duty, sent a company of cavalry, battered down the prison door and and released the man. The Mormons, it appears, were stunned by this exercise of federal authority, but the Gentiles and those w ho arc chafing under the Mormon rule rejoiced. It is predicted by the Master of the Pennsylvania State Grange, whose session at Mechanicsburg closed last Saturda', that the Commonwealth would have fully a thousand granges next January, with a membership of over fifty thousand. That's all right ; the farmers have no legitimate grievances which the Republican party is not able and willing to redd reus. Danville has found a case of suffering from ingtatitude. Several days ago au Englishman named Thomas Smith made application to the Poor Directors for relief. 1 1 . y wub, tltafe putt, livffYfr iu Thomastown, Ohio, had sent for him to Engiaud, aud that he had been in this country ten months.

Joseph j Suook, living near locke's Mills, was at tacked a week ago by a huge black snake, in a mountain field. The snake came glid ing close to him, and rearing itself up as high as his chin, he struck it with his hand. He then made for a stick, aud the snake intimidated by the blow it had already re ceived, crawled into a brush fence, but only to renew the attack. Mr. Suook called the dogs from the house, and the snake attack ed both of them, the large dog running away but the smaller one caught hold of it by the tail, when the other returned aud took it near the head, tugging away until they tore it iu two. It was about eight feet long. Jj.vi.-tnen Gazette. The Rev. Jacob Miller, left his home iu East Muncy, n Sunday moruiug last, and wended his way through heat and dust to !

The DciVittrtl Currency Hill. The conference report on the Currency bill was iicalcii so badly in the House, ou Saturday last, as to extinguish the last ray of hope as to any bill being sent to the President, this session. The first hill, which was vetoed by the President, passed the House by 14it yea.s to 102 nays ; of the majority there were 32 Democrats, and of the minority about the same number, but the provision iu the con ference bill party retiring legal tenders as new bank currency is issued, stamjicdcd the Democrats from it, and not oue voted yea, and the result was thus reversed, and it was lost by 141 nays to 108 yeas. There was a number of Republicans who voted nay on the former bill who voted yea ou this as a compromise measure, and a nuuilier who voted for the former who would not vote for this ou account of the provisions for resuming tpecic payments iu 1878, as they think that provision would hang like a dark cloud over the depressed industries of the country until that time, aud accomplish nothing but trouble. For the other bill, General Rutler alone, from the New Engiaud delegation, voted "aye," and this time he voted "uo" with them. New York, which voted solid against the former bill, gave three votes for this. PENNSYLVANIA'S VOTE. Pennsylvania voted on the vetoed bill as follows : 14 ayes, 11 noes ; '2 absent. Ou the last bill, 14 ayes, 8 noes ; 5 absent.

When the roll had been called there were ll'.i noes and 1)1 nyes, aud no Democrats having voted for it, and the President hav ing been senii-oflicially announced as being determined to veto it, the majority was largely iucreased.

Eight, young men of Williamsport have been arrested by the police on the charge of having been engaged in starting many of the recent lires in that city. Thr nntnes of the parties arrested aiv as follows: William Slmltz, .las. Parker, Wanvn Mc ginness, Elijah Real, Robert Tinsman, a 3'oung man named Calluclush, Alonzo Parker and .las. Ryerbach. The. prelimi nary examination was held in the Court House on Tuesday, lie fore Daniel Kepasz, Esq., the city being represented by II.' C. Parsons, Esq. The arrests are the result of a determined effort on the part of his Honor, Mayor Powell, ably assisted by the Politt! force and special officers Boyd Wilk iuson and Robert Smith to bring the of fenders to justice. The testimony of Mayor Powell and special officer Wilkinson as given by the (luzttte and Ihdktin, to whom we arc in debted for the data iu this article, tells the whole story and is as follows : Mayor Powell was the lirst witness call ed. Upon ti e Kith of May, immediately after his election to the position of Mayor, he instituted plans for the detection of the incendiaries, and employed as a sjiecial offi cer, Boyd Wilkinson : I?obert Smith was also employed, the latter reporting to Offi cer Mar ley, and the former to the witness ; this was to prevent suspicion. Through the system he inaugurated he gained infor mation so definite that he was frequently apprised of attempts that were to be made for the destruction of buildings ; he (the witness) had slept iu hay mows and among the lumlier piles for the purpose of delect ing these parties. lie knew the barn of Mrs. McGraw, on Elmira street, was singled out went there and found matches. A package shown which his Honor col lected there.J After the prisoners were arrested he held conversations with them, in the presence of the Chief of police. Me ginness confess -d to being one of the par ties engaged in setting theWatson barn on fire ; also the P. & E. car shop, Seminary barn, and as being a party in the attempt on the barn of Mr. Rowley ; Shultz admit ted as being concerned with Mcgiuness at the P. & E. shops also Parker aud Calli clush ; Tiusman's boy and Meginness fired the Tinsman barn. Tinsman also admit ted being with Miginness at the Walson barn ; they described how they tired build ings ; one said he visited Foresman's barn twice before Saturday night last. Royd Wilkinson next testified : Resided I in this city ; was 24 years of age ; was ap pointed a special about four weeks ago ; lie worked in the good graces of Miginness, and learned from him that he was ring leader; through Meginness he came in con tact with the test of the party ; Meginness said he had set on fire the engine house and railroad shops, aud that Shultz and Parker were with him ; they tired Robe's store, ou Fourth street, twice, and also attempted McCormick's barn ; one of the number claimed that he had been interested in seventeen fires eleven of which was suc cessful ; one night he said to Miginness, where shall the fun be to-night ? and he replied, "we will tackle the Reaver Mill lumber yard." Witness knew just what places were to be fired on Saturday night last, among which was the gas house, Foresman's "barn, and a barn on Elmira street ; they went up to Foresman's and laid in the tall grass about two hours; they were finally interfered with by Otticer Flynn, who came up that way ; upon their return, matches were thrown into the barn on Elmira street ; one of the party remark ed that if it didn't go oil' they would try McCormick's; upon reaching the Ameri can Hotel the witness feared that the barn on Elmira street would be cotisumed, and other property jeopardized, and going within informed Homer Martin, requesting him to go up and watch it, and put it out if it got started ; in relation to McCormick's barn it was found locked, aud then matches were thrown in Rowley's; the witness was in the habit of communicating with the Mayor, and kept him posted iu relation to what was going ou.

St. Paul, Minx., June 10. A telegram was received at General Terry's headquar ters to-day from General Custer, at Fort Lincolu, slating that a small parly of Sioux appeared on the river bank, opposite Fort ISerthold Agency, the morning before, at 7 o'clock, and commenced firing into the village. The Indians from the agency at once crossed the river, and were met by about 400 Sioux, and a short fight ensued, in which five Recsanu ouo Grosventre were killed and oue Mandau mortally wounded. This is doubtless the party who have been threatening for some time Rerthold Ageucy. The Indiaus at Fort Lincoln, and a party of Auckarees and Maudaus, who have just returned, are wild with excitement, and the Indian scouts can hardly wait General Custer's movements, they are so eager for blood, and scalps, and revenge, but they will not have long to wait, as Custer's cavalry expedition is nearly ready to leave Foit Lincoln, the fiual preparations having been completed by ollicers of the 7tU Caval ry, now iu this city.

A special from Pes Moines, Iowa, says there is intense excitement over the mur der committed there ou Saturday night. John Johnson, a tailor, was always re garded as a quiet man, employed at the tailoriug establishment of E. P. Chase & Co. He was about 50 years of age. He was found lying iu a gutter, face down ward, his skull broken in, and his head gashed in a frightful manner. Near the body was found an envelope containing a peicc of paper, on which was written : "This is the twcnly-seveuth man we have killed, and we will never be taken alive." Robbery is supposed to have been the incentive to the deed, as the victim's watch and pocket-book was gone. A HKSTKl CTIYK TOHXAUO, OVERFLOW OF THE RIVERS BARNS AND HOUSES OVERTURNED.

Drain off the first water from rhubarb when it has slewed five minutes ; evaporate it to the requisite de gree of sourness and use it instead of vine gar for the table and for cooking. It is an agreeable acid, and iu many cases it can be used iustead of lemon. It is a natural acid, aud therefore much more wholesome than vinegar formed by the decay of sweets, or by auy other chemical process. It may be evaporated (by gentle heat) to an in tense degree of sourness, and kept in cans or in bottles for future use, and reduced with water when wanted. Democrats are mildly trying to get a little comfort out of the Oregon election, but it is hard work. Last fall they carried the State by 2,071 majority.

We congratulate James upou his success. Ifuiuy Luminary. Admitting Colorado. The House of Representatives, by a vote of 170 to 05, has passed the bill admittiug Colorado into the Union. According to the census of 1870 Colorado had a population of 47,104, of whom 7,300 were Indians (not taxed), leav ing 30,StVl as the population upon which representation would be based. Gov. Hartrauft has issued warrants for the execution, on July l'.l, of Rosenline and Moody, the colored men who murdered Abraham Rehni, near M'uldletown, in November last. The Rloonisburg Jlejivllican tells the fol lowing almost incredible story : "Ou the north side of town is an abrupt precipice known as the Rocks. A little girl, daugh ter of Mrs. Mason, of Rock street, aged about nine years, iu company with some other girls of about her own age, was play ing there, when she ventured too far and fell a distance of probably one hundred feet, and landed on the railroad of the Blooms burg Irou Company, stuuncd and consider bly bruised, but no bones were broken. This occurred on Mouday evening, and Mr. McMelvy reports that she is doing well and will probably recover. This child seems to lie fated with falls. When but an infant she fell from a third story window, and afterward from a high porch, and a little girl, one of her companions at tho time she fell, assured us that there was no cause for alarm, saying that she was used to it, hav ing ofteu fallen before anil never been kill ed." If Johnson's Anodyne Liniment is half as valuable as people say it is, no family should lie without it. Certainly no person, be he lawyer, doctor, minister, or of any other profession, should start on a journey without it In fact, it is needed wherever there is an ache, sprain, cut, bruise, cough or cold. Farmers and "Horse Men" are contin ually inquiring what we know of the utility of Sheridan's Cavalry Condition Powders and iu reply, we would say, through the columns of the American, that we have heard from hundreds who have used theni w ith gratifying results ; that ia also our experience. Civil war in nguin imminent in France. The Imperialists arc very bold and aggressive, and are evidently trying to provoke a collision. Tlie republican members of the Assembly have been nssaultcd and insulted by mobs, and Gambctta, the must distinguished of the Republican lead ers, has been struck by an impcriajist, in order to provoke n duel that he mi:ht. be put nut of the way. A phase of life in New York is hown by the fart that on Saturday niuht, in thai city, Pat rick Pryor shot and fatally wimnditd Michael Dougherty I'liriui; a drunken brawi in Eleventh avennc ; Margaret Watson, aired 40, was kicked and fatally injured by Michael Rums in a tenement house tight ; and Margaret Trainor was fatally bca'en in Sullivan street by her hus band, Frank, who was drunk. In Brooklyn, the same nisjht, Morris Murphy was fatally stabbed iu a drunken quarrel. The Mayor of Reading was sun-struck last week, but toon recovered. He now carries an umbrella, aud wears a lump of ice aud a cabbage leal in his hat. There is a great deal of yellow fever in the West Indias just now, and the authorities at the New York quarantine arc taking extra precau tions against infection. General Mackenzie has ret u me 1 from his raid into Mexico, without having succeeded iu over taking the cattle thieves who had been ojieratinu ou this side of the river. ' The Democrats In Congress vote us a unit on the side of the New York money bags, and against an increase of currency for the conveni ence of the people and the restoration of busi ness. The reports iu regard to the famine in India are distressiue;. It is said to have reached gi gantic proportions, and that the British govern ment has undertaken the euonuous task of feed ing three and a half millions of destitute people.

Cornpondence. OI K XEW YORK LETTER. ONE GOOD RICH WOMAN WHAT SHE DOES WITH HER MONEY DULL TIMES THE SUMMER MIGRATION BIDDY THE WEATHER. New York, .7ie 10, 1S74. ONE GOOD RICH WOMAN. We read iu Holy AVrit that it shall be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. I presume this ap plies to women as well, and I am iu no mood this morning to dispute the assertion. The care of my estate so worries me that I am seldom in a Christian frame of mind. Nobody knows the anxieties attendant upon great wealth. Mr. Vanderbilt and I weep over it hours together. Rut there is one exception to this rule. I know of one woman who has great wealth, who will, when Azracl waves his dark pinions over her head, go straight to hea ven, and by the shortest possible route ; and her name is Stokes, the wife of Anson Phelps Stokes, of the great house of Dodge & Co. Mrs. Stokes has the enjoyment of exceed ing great wealth. She might, if she chose, be the finest and most useless woman in New York ; she could dawdle in purple and fine linen ; she could loll in carriages ; she could cover herself with diamonds ; she could live from day to day in luxurious self-indulgence, and die, finally, leaving no soul behind to mourn her going. All this is being done by thousands of line ladies in the circles iu which she moves and adorns Rut Mrs. Stokes does not happen to be one of that kind, and I fervently thank Heaven for it. She is a strong, active wo man, full of the noblest impulses and the broadest love for her kind. She has a mag nificent house up-town, and a more mag nificent residence on that gem of the sea, stivUm Island. Ou that island she has had an immense building erected, which is in its way a sort of an asylum. Now see what one good woman can do with money. The charities of New York shelter and har bor thousands upon thousands of homeless orphan children, and during the summer they sutler iu their necessarily close quar ters. Mrs. Stokes takes seventy of these waifs at a time down to her home on the Island this being the capacity of the build ing aud keeps them there a week. They have the freshest aud best fruits, milk from her own cows, and the best of everything that the market can furnish. Ou the ex tensive grounds swings are erected, play grounds are arranged, and the children en joy not only the pure air of heaven and the best of food, but all sorts and kinds of in nocent and healthful pleasure. Their weeks up, they arc returned, and another seventy are takeu down, all at her own expeusc. And this thing goes ou from the time hot weather beings till the cold autumn makes it unnecessary, this good, kind woman superintending it all. Would that wealth always fell into such hands ! Would that there more such rich women in New York, and everywhere else ! Would there were more women who could so honestly wear the title "lady." Talk about position making the "first lady." Thousands of poor neglected children will in the days to come rise up and say ''blesss ed" of this woman, whose goodness was their first ray of sunshine. DULLNESS. The city is dull to a degree never known before. There is no business, positively none. There is no buying, no selling, for the reason that the farmer has no money to pay the country dealer ; the country dealer has no money to buy of the jobbers, and the jobbers' goods consequently lie on their shelves or remain hidden in boxes. The hotels were never so empty, and hotel proprietors never looked so blue. Indeed it has come to a point where a hotel clerk will actually give the weary traveler who seeks rest a civil word. By this you may imagine how much they want to see people. And the trouble is, no one can prophesy as to the duration of this stale of things. "Wheu will business revive is the query, the answer always being, "The Lord ouly knows." No human can tel', for there was no apparent cause for its beginuing. The country was strong and sound in Septem ber last, yet in a week a panic swept over the country like a tornado, prostrating the s trongest houses, unrootiug the most firmly established credits, and with its long fingers reaching down to the most humble people. For it has affected the most hum ble. With the suspension of busiuess every thing suspended. There i no building, and tiie builders are out of woik. The consumption of every thing that goes into the bowels (except wiskey) is lessened, and the coopers are idle. Men wear their boots longer, aud the shoemakers are on their oars ; in short, it is distress, and nothiug but distress. It goes even to the beggars. One placid looking, old blind beggar who has a seal on Fulton St, told me yesterday that the panic had ruined him. His col lections he said with a whine, had dropped to 8:1 per day, but he would't care so much about that, but rents had fallen 30 per cent, and he had two houses and three stores empty, even at this reduction. The old fellow has sat on a sidewalk, aud had enough pennies dropped iuto his hat to make a fortune, which, by judicious in vestment, has swelled to a fortune. THE SUMMER. Summer is on us at last. The sun is now hurling its rays direct upon the city, heating the pavements, heating the build ings, heating humanity, heating animality. A great city is terribly hot when it is hot The tall buildings not only retain heat, but they prevent the free circulation of air that would otherwise mitigate it. Then the ten thousand distinct odors the smell to heaven make it unhealthy as well as disagreeable. Consequently all of New York that can get out gets out Away to the mountains, to the sea-side, to springs, to every earthly place where fresh air and trees are to be found the New Yorker and his wife and daughter goes. The theatres, such as are kept open, are half filled with people from the country and the few desolate men who cannot get away. Houses are locked up, and inhabited only by the one domestic left in charge. This is Biddy's great .time. For when "Missus" goes to the "counthry" Biddy is left to take care of the house. Don't her "cousins" have a good time though I When Missus is at home Biddy has got to give her parties in the kitchen, and she is liable to constant interruption. But in the summer it is different. Missus is three hundred miles away, and Biddy is supreme in the house. No kitchen for her now ; the parlors are not good enough, Dinnis, Pathrick, Teddy the divil, and all the rest of them, with other Biddys, assem ble in the parlors in the evenings and enjoy high life in dead earnest. Refreshments arc spread in the dining-room, and such a time is had as the "Mistress" never dream ed of. It is well. Why shouldn't they have their innings ? Possibly, many of these houses never see so much of genuine honesty and jollity when its lawful proprie tors are running it And it is a question whether the masters and misausscs in the watering places enjoy themselves more than the Dinnises and Biddys do in the vacant houses. THE WEATHER is gorgeous. It got very hot laet week, but a succession of magnificent thunder storms cleaned and purified the atmos phere, and lowered the thermoneter to a living point It is fresh and good, and ex isting is now a pleasure. May it continue, PlETRO. 2eto ,Jbbediscmcnts.
