KUSSELL ERRETT, Chairman. P,9' (Secretaries. Jobs M'Ct'LLOuea, rftoxrsK or Better Times. Evidence of the approach of better times is accumu lating, and seems so strong as to leave no doubt that there will be a favorable turn in business before the lapse of many weeks in fact that we are already in the dawn of better times. - The Xew York Herald pro nounces all tbc signs of genuine prosperity auspicious. There are, it says, good tid ings about tbc harvests ; our wharves are crowded with ships to export our products to foreign lands, and the fear that the cot ton crop would be destroyed is over. Rail way and other shares, which have long ruled at tlse rates on account of dishonest management, watering and adding false quantities to their values, real estate which has been bought aud sold so long, not for what it is worth, but for whatevcre brokers or speculators could be induced to lend 'on a margin, are coming to their true value. Tbe panic was the end of tbe system of false hood opon which the business was based. We came down to hard pan. The Troy Timet informs us that all the stove found ries in that city are running, some on full time, others under a slight reduction. Trade is fair, it says, and there are no pros pects of tbe foundries shutting down this season. Pennsylvania iron dealers (con tinues the Times) say tliat during tbe past ien days they had more orders for iron than during tbo previous six weeks. Iron deal ers in Troy have not had any such experi ence as yet. They hope for it, however. And here is home evidence : 'It is rumored that within the course of a week or so the working time of the employees in the Al toona shops will be increased to ten hours instead of eight, as at prcseut, and six work ing days will be resumed instead of five. Again : 'The Lehigh Crane Coal and Iron Company are about blowing in one of their furnaces, which is the third now in blast since they eutirly shut down some time ago. At the Thomas Iron Company, where strikes have been threatened for some time past, it is said the hands have all gone to work, accepting the present situation.' The Two Parties Compared. It may not be amiss, as introductory to tbe campaign soon to open, to institute acorn pansion between the Republican and De mocratic parties. We shall perceive more clearly the strength of the former as we compare its general character and record with those of the latter. The Republican party (says the Buffalo Krpress) has, from the first, pursued a course which demonstrates its fidelity to the Union, its love of freedom and Usabili ty to deal with governmental problems, however complex or delicate, and settle them in a manner best adapted to conserve ....... . ... . . ! ine interests 01 ine wnoie country wiuiout I intriguing upon the rights of any particular part. The Democracy has proved itself to be the enemy of the Union by its efforts to rend it into fragments ; of freedom, by its endeavors to hold millious in hopeless bondage, and by shameless incapacity and treachery it has ever shown a disposition to sacrifice the interests and honor of the nation to its own selfishness and aggran dizement Tbe Republican party has redeemed its pledges to the people by effecting all prac ticable retrenchment and economy in the distribution of government expenditures, showing a saving of many millions of dol lars to tbe treasury. Tbe Democracy baa systematically disregarded every promise it has ever made, ignored all sense of moral obligation, and has seized every opportuni ty to enrich itself by wholesale plunder and robbery of the public chest The Republican party ha? rendered good service to the country, and nuiform con sistency and fidelity to the interests and honor of the nation, commands andenjtys. the respect and gratitude of the great mass of the people. The Itmocracy has done its best to entail ruin and dishonor on the nation, and finds itself cast out as an in famous malefactor by an indignant people whose confidence it has wantonly abused and betrayed. The Republican party, conscious of its rectitude, courts inspection, and shrinks from no scrutiny, however severe. The Democracy dreads the light, lest its true character should be revciled and its deeds reproved ; it hides its record in darkness as a plunderer would his pelf, and weighed in the balance of a righteous judgment it is found wanting in everything lhat could shield it from everlasting execration. Such are a few points of comparison, or rather contrast, between the political par ties as thoy stand before the country to-day, and when the facts thus presented arc put to the final test, in the approaching cam paign, it will bo shown that our estimate of the relative merits of the respective par ties will be roundly and triumphantly en dorsed. Railroad Accidents. Two through express trains on the New York and Erie Railroad collided near Canascraga, N. Y., at nine o'clock Saturday morning. N. Van Horn.of N.

The people arc groaning under a load of taxa tion. The current expenses of the State are not paid. Warrants are now outstanding on the Treasury to the amount of near half a million of dollars. The money derived from taxation has been transferred to Xew York to fill the coffers of the bondholder, in whose interest the State lias been and is now being run. The debts due our own people for services rendered to the Stale are unpaid. A largo portion of the taxes for 1874 have been collected, and before Janu ary, 173, the outstanding warrants for the current expenses of the State will amount to more than a million. Already 6ix or seven hundred thousand dollars of the cur rency have -been sent off to New York to pay the July interest, aud as much, or more, will have to be sent in the fall to meet the January interest." The conflagration at Chicago, on Tues day of last week, Btarted at half past four o'clock, in a paint factory at Twelfth and Clark streets and burned southwardly, and was then carried north by a change of wind into the heart of the city, encroached on the rebuilt district. At eleven o'clock on Tuesday night, hundreds of dwellings, the post-office, Adelphi theatre. First Baptist church, and several hotels had been burn ed, and the conflagration continued to rage until one o'clock in the morning. The fire destroyed over fifteen blocks of buildings, covering about sixty acres of ground. Among the buildings consumed were 344 places of business, 4 hotels, 3 churches and 2 synagogues. The losses arc estimated at upwards of 4,000,000. Another fire in the northwestern part of Chicago, on Wednesday afternoon, destroyed fifteen or twenty frame buildings, causing a loss of about 800,000. Several late dispatches show that Indian hostilities increase throughout tbo west CoL Carpenter, of the Sixth Cavalry, has been wounded, and six of his men killed in a fight near Fort Sill. After the fight the Indians killed and mutilated a stage-keeper, in tbe presence of his wife, whom they car ried into captivity, and it is believed they also massacred a party of wood-choppers. Thirty-five miners in Wyoming have been attacked by Sioux, aud one of them killed. In other directions, as far south as Texas, the Indians are equally hostile. "Our friend D. C. Dissinger has just re turned from a visit to Lebanon county, and brings the highly important intelligence that the Democrats of that county concede the nomination of that party for Congress to this county. As the district is composed of Dauphin, Lchanon and Northumberland, the majority for such a nominee couldn't by any possibility be over 100,000." Xunburtf Dai'v, of Wednesday last There is a supposition that Mr. Dissingdr made a visit to Lebanon for the purpose of fixing the political wires to secure the nomination for himself. If you are a can didate for Congress, David, why don't you say so. It now appears lhat previous to the ap pointment of Mr. Jewell to the jwsition of Postmaster General, the honor was tender ed to Hon. John B. Packer, of Sunbury, Congressman from the Northumberland district, but was declined by that gentle man. This action of his is to be very much regretted, as he is one of the best and ablest men of his party in this State and would have made a most efficient officer ; and would also have given Pennsylvania her position of having a representative in the Federal Cabinet. Bloonmbury Columbian. At last those feminine advocates of total prohibition in Ohio, known under the ap pellation of crusaders, have done something to merit the gratitude of consumers alcoho lic beverages. In a recent convention these once enthusiastic, but now methodical and and practical ladies, formally demanded the execution of a half-forgotten law of the " . . A ... , ., appointment of inspectors to test liquors, and empowering them to dettroy all that are adulterated. Governor Allen will be at once asked to have this enactment car ried into practical effect, and how he cau refuse to perform so plain a duty it is diffi cult to surmise. By the enforcement of a Pure Liquor law there will be more drink ing saloons closed in Ohio, one hundred to one, than were retired from business by the novel efforts of the well-meaning but over zealous crusaders. Divorce suits, where a separation is asked in consequence of cruel trcatmeut, are usu ally brought by the wife against the hus band. In a recent case in New York, however, this rule was reversed. The complainant was the husbatid, who charged his wife with cruel and inhuman treatment, and so satisfied was the Judge from the testimony giveu of the truth and gravity of the complaint, that the divorce was granted. So it seems that in this as in other matters, there is an important excep tion to the rule, and that there are some times husbaud-bealing wives as well as wife-beating husbands. A Terrible Fate. The Elmira Advertiser gives the follow ing account of tbc sad accident at Watkins' Glen, which resulted in the doath of a very estimable young lady, Miss Ruth Van Et ten, of Auburn. She came out with an ex cursion party of a dozeu or more compan ions, arriving at the Glen about noon. The accident happened a little above the second stairway from the entrance to the Glen. The Glen is narrow at that point with pre cipitous sides rising many f:et from the bottom. The pathway is quite narrow, too, but we should think sufficiently pro tected by a stout railing to forbid auy fear of danger or auy thing untoward happening. Miss Van Etten stood leaning on this railing looking into the abyss below. In some unaccountable mauner either some loose dirt or a slippery stone being the cause she lost her footing and slid down between the lower rail of the railing and the edge of the precipice into the gorge be low. She first struck on the opposite side, but bounded back to the same side down which she fell, a disLmce in all of at least ninety-five feet. She was litterally dashed to pieces at the bottom, her neck being broken and her brains crushed from her bead. She was taken to her home on the return boat The young lady is well con nected and highly spoken of, and her un toward fate cast a feeling of gloom through every circle where it was known. She was about twenty-five years of age.' Arents Klincken, who came from Hol land with William Penn in his first voyage in 1G82 built the first two-story house ever built in Germantown : and Penn was pres ent and partook of the raising dinner, which must have been an inviting one in those good old times when everything was cheap and plenty.

AN ATTEMPT MADE TO MCRDEU MRS. IIERING BY MEANS OF AN INFERNAL MACHINE ARREST OF THE SUPPOSED CULPRIT. About five o'clock on Saturday afternoon. a boy aged about 10 years went to the residence of Mr. Charles C. nering, No. 006 South Second street and deposited a paper package on the top of a roll of oil cloth. He said it was a present for Mrs. Uering. It was accompanied by the fol lowing note directed to Mrs. C. C. Hering. "Philadelphia, July 17, 1874. Mrs. C. C. Hering : You will have the kind ness of looking al samples of Venetian shades rollers inclosed in package. You will find something very saleable in your Btore. They are a new paterncd article which will demand a great call on you in a few days. You can exhibit the same in your store free of charge. If not suitable, return the same to factory, No. 5558 North Front street G. W. Esiiler & Co." Mr. Hering, perceiving that the note was directed to his wife, hauded it to her. She said the package looked like a "spite box," and refused to touch it. Mr. Hering opened it in the presence of all his family with the exception of one little child, and after removing three or four wrappers of paper, it proved to bo a wooden box, with a drawer or sliding lid. The box was opened, and it was found to contain three pounds of powder, a piece of wood in the centre pierced with holes, filled with matches, the friction Bide being up and the drawer lid lined with sandpaper, and made to come in contact with the matches, and so explode. It was a perfect miracle that the whole family were not im mediately killed and the house set on fire, which would certainly have been the case had not the lid been removed very cau tiously. Edward Wagner, residing No. 508 South Fifth street, was arrested yesterday after noon by Detectives Mears and Joyce, on the charge of having attempted to commit the murder. . The accused is a son-in-law of Mrs. Hering, and the note accompany ing the box was compared with a bill made out by Wagner for Mr. Hering, and the handwriting is almost identical. It is alleged that Wagner has a grudge against his mother-in-law for two or three reasons, one being lhat he wished to go into business with Mr. Hering, but she dissuaded her husband from doing so. Our readers will remember that about a year ago the residence of Mrs. Hering was the scene of a brutal murder, another son-in-law, named Schusterciter, having cut his wife's throat and destroyed his own life, having taken corrosive sublimate. It is alleged that a letter in German was receiv ed some time ago by Mr. Hering, which stated that the next murder would be worse than the first Wagner will have a hearing at the Cen tral to-day. rhiladeljihia Inquirer of Tues day. .

In connection with the application of General Sheridan as to effective operations against the In dians, the Kiowas, C'omanches, and Chey- ennes, the Secretary of War has instructed the General of the Army as follows : July 20, 1874. Respectfully returned to the General of the army, in accordance with the sugges tions and recommendations received to-day from the Acting Secretary of the Interior and Commissioner of Indian Affairs. The guilty Indians will be pursucded and pun ished wherever found, and the reservation lines should bo no barrier to such opera tions. Care should be taken not to strike innocent and friendly Indians who are near the the agency and who have taken no part in recent forays. Strict measures should be immediately taken to keep friendly In dians from the others, and permission be offered to others who are friendly and have not had opportunity to join them to come in. Then, all who persist in hostilities should be pursued and punished. The Secretary of the Interior will be im mediately informed of these instructions, and a copy of the letter of the Secretay of the Interior of July 18, enclosing a com munication from tbc Committee on Indian Affairs of the same date, received to-day m will be sent, as soon as copied, to you tor transmission to General Sheridan.

The BeectierRow Mr. Tilton's New Departure What Theodore is Go ino to do-Diptueria-Direct Trade of toe West with Europe Business Orangemen The Mayor. New York, July 21, 1874. The Tilton-Beecher trouble is, apparent ly, as far from settlement as ever. The most curious thing in the matter now, is the sudden separation of Mrs. Tilton from her husband. Mrs. Tilton went before the committee appointed to investigate Mr. Beechcr, and give her testimony. What she testified to the committee only know, but it is understood that she denied dis tinctly and explicitly that Mr. Beecher had ever offered her an indignity in short that the statement of her husband was false. At all events, she returned to her home and told her husband thai in consequence he had taken, their paths in life would henceforth be apart, and she left him, pro bably forever. Of course, this is all conjecture, but the probability is that the Beecher party knew what Mrs. Tilton would testify to, which accounts for their jaunty confidence in their ability to crush out Tilton. But what becomes of Mr. Beecher's confession? me thinks I hear one ask. Easy enough. Sup pose the astute Henry Ward Beecher should affirm that ho signed it under com pulsion ; or suppose that there is nolbin direct in it Suppose when it comes to be read it is found to be, well, anything but a direct confession of a specific attempt upon the person of Mrs. Tilton ; and suppose Mr. Beechcr should swear he never signed anything of the kind. It strikes me he has the Tilton DeoDle. At least he has them bo far as Plymouth Church is concerned, for those people are bound to believe in him anyhow. There is another thing Mr. Beecher can dd. Suppose when he gives in his testi mony he is asked, "What about that con fession which you gave Tilton, in which you wished you were dead?" He will probably answer : "Theodore was at that time running very wild. He was having affairs, as was supposed, with various wo men, and Mrs. Tilton came to me for ad vice. Believing that the reports were true, I did advise her to a course which, as I af terwards found, was unjust to Theodore. Therefore 1 made him the apology which he has since published. My zeal for Mrs, Tilton did get me into an awkward posi tion." This story Mr. Beecher's friends are cir culating at this time. One thing may be depended upon, viz : if the thing is possi blc, Mr. Beecher will be completely exon erated by the committee. They will not bring him in guilty of anything. The Tilton family have seen a great deal of Trouble. Theodore is an excitable, im petuous, impulsive man, who has wander ed after a great many strange gods, and a few strange goodnesses. It 4s said at the time he was standing side by side with the Woodhull faction that he was accustomed to take the Woodhull to his house, despite the tearful protests of his wife, and insist upon her being recognized as a woman fit for the companionship of any woman on earth. This it is justice to him to Bay he denies. But it is true, beyond question, that he was infatuated with tbe doctrines of the woman, if not with the woman her self, and that that fact, judiciously aud skillfully managed by his mother-in-law, a lady of very certain temper, made his homo an uncomfortable place. Theodore felt that he was acting upon principle in giv ing countenance to the Woodhull, while Mrs. Tilton felt that giving her any counte nance whatever, was an outrage ; and the mother-in-law, who possesses enormous capacity for trouble, raged between tbo two, serenely happy in the row that was developing. Then Beecher got into it. It was charged by Tilton that he attempted to outrage his wife, and another clement of discord was hurled into the already shaken home. Til ton and his friend Moulton compelled a document from Beecher confessing his guilt (the same, a portion of which was re cently published by Tilton) and a settle ment of troubles, financial and moral, was effected between Beechor, Bowen aud Til ton. Mrs. Woodhull was sent to the right about, and it did seem as though every thing would co on serene. But Dr. Bacon and Plymouth Church would not let Theodore alone. They want ed him out of the way, and to that end they kept continually poking sharp sticks al him. Theodore is not the man to poke sticks at, sharp or otherwise. He has trick of turning and pushing with the horn, and fearfully sharp horns he carries. He did turn and did gore not only the pur suers, but the man whose good name the pursuers wanted to shield. His mistake was in not punching deep enough. I am satisfied he has it in his power to strike a deadly blow at Mr. Beecher, and if he did j anything, that is what he should have , done. But Beecher decided to brave Theodore, and this gives him this opportunity. The plucky Tilton has given notice that in a few days he will make a sworn statement of the exact facts in the case, and that he will mash Mr. Beecher completely. Mrs. Tilton's action is regarded as very curious and queer, for it is understood that it was from her lips that Mr. Tilton first gathered knowledge of tbe outrage. Alto gether it is a queer mess, and our advice is wait coolly and calmly a few days. Til ton must either kill Beecher or be killed himself. He is in a position where noth ing but blood will answer. Wait and see whose head rolls in the sand. IIEALTn. Now that the hydrophobia scare is fairly off, New Yoik is getting into a fright over dypthcria. The papers are calling atten tion to the fact that while London averages about six deaths from diptheria per week, New York, with about one-fourth its popu lation, looses thirty-three. The physicians say it will increase unless the disease-engendering filth of the lower part of the city is cleansed out and new, clean, healthful sewers constructed in their stead. But as New York has to have some disease, why not diptheria ? Until the city is about as good as rebuilt in the matter of sewers, and until the abominable system of over crowding in tenement houses is done away with, New York will never be without an epidemic. Men, women and children can not live like swine without paying the penalty. THE SCHOONER BENSON, which sailed from Toledo, Ohio, direct to Cork, Ireland, with a cargo of corn, has arrived 8afely, making tbe voyage in thirty days a rather quick trip. The news pro duced a sensation on the Produce Ex change. She carried out about 28,000 bushels of corn, and made an excellent profit on the voyage. The query among the merchants here now is : If Toledo, Chicago and Milwaukee can send their grain direct to Europe, via the Lakes- and the St Lawrence, and load back, what is New York going to do for this very im portant business ? The lack of facilities for handling grain in this city, tbc infernal robberies committed upon shippers, and the general worry and trouble of getting grain through New York has driven . a large share of the trade to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston, and now comes this new departure, which threatens the rest of it. Gentlemen merchants of New Y'ork, what you have to do is to enlarge the Eric Canal, remove the tolls and other impediments in the way of trade, erect ele vators sufficient to handle the grain econo mically, and have some system in the bu siness. Otherwise the trade will leave you as sure as fate. THE MAYOR. Some days since it looked as though the Governor would relieve the city of one of its greatest troubles by the removal of Havemeyer from the Mayoralty, but as hia term is short he will probable permit him remain. It is claimed that the Mayor is actually insane, and his acts give color to the claim . If he is not insane, he is the most pig headed, stupid man that ever lived. Elected as a Reformer he has play ed perpetually into the hands of the ring, and has openly affiliated with them. He is very old and is probably somewhat de ranged. This theory of going to grave yards for officials never did answer. The citizens will know' their man next time. A HOPEFUL SIGN. Our Catholic Irish citizens do not rule New York as much as they did. Tbe Orangemen paraded the streets on the an niversary of tbe Battle of the Boyne Water, and were not molested. Possibly our Irish friends have come to recognize the fact that Protestants have some rights in America, and that St Patrick is not a greater man than the Fourth of July after all. The Orangemen are gratified, and we have no doubt that cool-headed Catholics feel better than they would had a riot oc curred.' BUSINESS is a little duller, if possible, than when 1 last wrote, but the business men feel bet ter. They know, now, that there is going to be no business till fall, and they have quit worrying about it They have re duced their expenses to the minimum, and are sailing lazily along under bare poles, till such time as the revival comes. They expect a good business in the fall, for the reason that the people must buy sometime. They doubtless will not be disappointed. Pietro. eh Sobcriiscmtnts. Xa. Cremo de la Grenie.Xo.4.Priee,so cu.
