The state convention of the Republican
part j lias been fixed for the 25th of May,
st Lancaster, and that of the Democratic
partj for the Sth of September, at Erie.
The candidates to be nominated will be for
GoTernor and State Treasurer. The re
uomiuatiou of Gov. Johu F. Hartranfl as
the Republican standard bearer for Gover
nor seems to be conceded, as no other name
hn9 been mentioned in connection with the
position. This is due entirely to the merits
of our present Governor, as be has filled
the duties of the position with ability,
honesty and impartiality. He has given
more general satisfaction than any Execu
tive wc have had for some time. We can
uot well select a stronger caudtdate. He
proved himself an acceptable oflk-er. Ha v
iu been elected by one of the largest ma
jorities ever given a candidate, despite the
most earnest, determined and persistent
opposition, coupled with the vilest abuse,
lie has managed the affairs of state gov
ernment m well that his vilest opponents
peak ot him in the highest terms of praise,
and but few Democrats can say aught
against him as a man of ability, honesty
Had integrity.
TnE Force Kill. Wo notice lUi it is
the general sentiment, cveu aniong Repub
licans, that the failure of what was called
the Force bill, which clothed the President
with the power to suspend the habeas cor
pus act and to deal summarily with south
cm violence, is a cause of congratulation.
The best way for the south uow to show
that tho measure was not needed is to dis
band their White Leagues, enforce law aud
order, respect the Natioual authority and
obey the existing statutes. As the Con
stitution authorizes aud requires the Presi
dent to onforce the laws, lie probably does
not need the force bill to enable him to do
so ; and t'aeir can 1 no doubt that if the
civil officers of the Government be dulled
sufilcknt force may be called in by civil
yosse or otherwise.
Senator Johuson, of Tennessee, does not

act with one parly or tho other, and that

pear in his judgdicnt best for the country.

partner in the advertising agency business
in X w York, Mr. Bates, says his sole
reason for closing bis pecuniary connection

The extra session oithe Senate commen
ced on Friday. The new Seuators, with
one or two exceptions, all appeared, and
were qualified. Five ex-Confcderatts
were among the number, and as they could
not take the "iron-clad" loyal oath, it had
to be adminsitercd iu a milder form. Ex

oath, and looked quite Senatorial iu hi

Should the Iouisiana question come up,

The Austin (Texas) St'ito-rttan is the.
official Democratic organ of the ultra Dem
ocratic government of that State, yet even
it is compelled to admit that their is no
security for human life there, and to sug-
jest the passage of a law creating perpet-
ual jury f-r the trial of murder case.
It
says:
! "Muuv uf-u arrested and guilty of the
j iwsi astrocious murders are never brought

If ench a statenv nt had nppe:md iu a

THE FL.V.tlES AGII.V.
Fire broke out in the lumber yards of
John DuBoia, at DuBoistown, west of his
mills, about. SI o'clock last night, and pro
ceeded west, through a thickly piled ppace
of ground be wr-cn the railroad and river.
A brisk biouzc springing up, carried the
(lames fioiupilt to pile, and, notwilhstaud
iug tho eli'orts to cut it off by tearing out
piles, the brave fellows were compelled to fall
back by the intensity of the heat.renewiun
their exertions at another poiut, only to be
again driven away by the approaching
flames. .t 11:50, Xo. 1 steamer which
had been loaded on a flat car at Mulberry
street, arrived at the scene, aud finding it
impossible to obtain water, was compelled
before unloading to run the gauntlet almost
through the midst of the fire, in hopes of
getting to the river above, which effort
proved fruitless. While the train wa3 pass
ing through the intense heat a cry of 'tire !'
drew attention loathe engine, tho cab ot
which was in a blaze, which was soon put
out with snow balling, after which the
train was aguin forced to encounter the
heat tin its return trip. Finding it impos
sible to got to the river the engine was left
upon tho cars a silent sjiectator to the
scene. Several small buildings along the
road overlooking the fire were in great
dauger, and were with the greatest difficul
ty saved. At three o'clock this morning
the tire was still raging with no prospects
of beinir controlled. I
The fire originated from a spark thrown
into a lumber pile by a passing engine, at
7:30. and when tiri discovered, could have
been quenched by a single bucket of water.
The loss in lumber is estimated at three
millions offset, aud will foot up, including
track and trestle work,nearly 00,000, upon
which there is no insurauce. The steamer
beiug unable to reuder any assistance, re
turned to the city at about one o'clock this
morning.
The yard contained about clevcu and a
half millions of feet of lumber, au account
having been taken a few weeks ago.
Several of tho men on the train with the
steamer as it passed through the flames,
were more or less scorched, and had their
whiskers burned off.
The fire broke out one hundred rods west
of the mill, which was at no time in dan
ger. A largo number of persons were at
tracted to the fire, some coming from Mon
toursville. All worked manfully to quench
the (lames by shoveling snow upon them,
but owing to the iuteue heat very little
good was accomplished. Fortunately there
was but little wind blowing which prevent- j
ed the file from making very rapid head- j
way. J
The light of the conilagratiou was seen
at Lock Haven and points above by pas- j
6engers coining down on the late train. I
Installation Service. Notwith
standing the severe snow storm of Wednes
day last, the Presbytery of Northumber
land gave an example of the perseverance
of the saints by assembling at Newberry,
to ordain aud install the new pastor elect
of tho Presbyterian church. The forenoon
was spent in examination of the candidate
for orders. Rev. Alex. Iltury, who acquit
ted himself handsomely. As a part of the
trial he preached a sermon upon the pre
paration of the world for the coming ol
Christ, which was recognized by all who
heard it as evincing fine scholarship aud
ability. In the afternoon the installation
was attended to. The rmon was preach
ed by Rev. Dr. Knox, of Bristol, Pa., aud
was exceedingly appropriate and good.
lhe charge to the pastor was given by
Ilev. W. Sterling, and was truly a faithful
charge and a cordial welcome to the young
brother. The charge to the peop'e by Rev.
II. W. Brown was pungent and clear,
while it was kind and timely. Dr. Watson
presided and propounded the constitutional
questions to pastor and people. The at
tendance was large for the day and the
oecassion lwth solemn and joyous. lief.
Mr. Heury is from tho ld Philadelphia
family of that name, which has given the
Quaker city a mayor and many successful
business men, and he bids fair to be an
honor to the name he wears. The Presby
terians of Newberry are to be congratulated
on their success in securing so worthy
a successor to our friend Caldwell.- JiaVe

An ArrECTiNC Scenic. On Thursday
in the Philadelphia Court of Quarter Ses-
sions, them was an affecting scene. Sarah
Iluhu, a tlelicate-looking woman and her
youug daughter, who gave the name of
Fayette Bowcn, were arraigned for ihe
larceny of four yards of cloth from the store
of Isaac Shivers. The mother pleaded
guilty, aud the daughter was acquitted.
When the former was first called she was
fust brought forward and then taken back
to the bench in front of the dock, where
she was taken with spasms. When this
occurred a wail a rose from live or six little
childrcu who were sitting among the fe
male witnesses, and a scene of excitement
was the result. The por little faces were
bathed in tears, and they gazed terror
stricken upon their mother, who was lying
back iu the arms of the olliccrs pale and
motionless. The children were couducled
from the court room by some women, and
the mother was taken into a private room
and a physician suiumoued. She appeared
to be far gone with pulmonary disease, and
mauy of the spectators were moved to tears
at the pitiful sight. The judge said the
dof udent should lie taken care of. He
would hold the bill over arid sud for her
if he wanted her, but she would be more
likely to apjwar before the Great Judge be
fore she would be called in this court.
The Civil Rights Bid is variously received
in the south. A majority of the papers
advise quiet submission, and that it would
uot be half as objectionable as was appre
hended. Indeed, since the school clause
is struck out, it provides for little more
than tlm blacks already have. At hotels a
seiHT.ite table and rooms could be provided
for tl::m. At theatres, ojicras, Acit no
one is obliged to sell them tickets unless
they choose to do en. At many restaur
auls thev are now accommodated. In rail
way cars, &c, they h ive all the rights of
the whites.
Snmn idea of the tnormou3 amount of
money paid out for hogs in the West, may
be gained, when it is stated that in Chicago
the purchases of live hogs for packing
alone, down to last Saturday, footed up to
thirty million dollars. This does not
include the money paid for dressed hogs,
or those purchased for shipment. With
the stiff prices that have ruled for hogs, can
their be any doubt that those sections
where they are produced are full of mouey ?
Their prosperity, for the present year at
least, is now well assured. Vimburq Cum-

The Bocxty Bill. The Senate on

congratulation.

vote, which is very generally being cast for
the Republican nominees. The Republi
cans already claim the Governor and the
Second and Third Congressional Districts.
The election of Frank Jones, Democratic
Congressional candidate in the First Dis
trict, is conceded by the Republicans.
Portsmouth, in the First District, has gone
Democratic by an increased majority.
Joues has a majority there of one hundred,
against a Democratic majority of eleven
last year.
A Concord dispatch from a Republican
source says : "The news of a Republican
victory is confirmed beyond doubt, and j
jubilatious have beguu everywhere. Che
ney's majority is probably small. The
Legislature is Republican by a good work
ing majority. It is kuown that Joues (De
mocrat) is elected in the First District, and
Blair (Republican) iu the Third. Kent,
his opponent, is running behind his ticket.
The contest is close in the Second Dis
trict." The Monitor savs : "The returns receiv-
J ed this afternoon indicate beyond a perad-
venture that the llepubhcan party has won
a triumph, even if it has not made a clean
sweep, and has undoubtedly elected Cheney
on the popular vote and carried the House
by au overwhelming majority, aud the
Senate two to oue. Returns from forty
uine towns give Cheney, Republican, 7, 680;
Roberts, Democrat, 7,715 ; White, Pro-
j hibitionist, 149 ; scattering, 3. These towns
last year gave McCu'.chins, Republican,
C.581 ; Weston, Democrat, 7,1G0 ; Black
mar, Prohibitionist, and scattering, 502 a
llepublicau gain of 007. The Republican
State Committee are confident that they
have carried the State. The indications
are that the Republicans have elected their j
Governor and carried the Seuate and House j
of Representatives. Wonderful Republican j
pains are reported from almost every sec-'
tiou of the Stale.
The Democrats are reticent as to the re
sult, but are confident that further returns
will elect their Governor, and probably
Pike, their Congressional candidate in the
Second District.
Concokd, X. II., March 9. Ninety-live
towns give Cheney Republican, 14.762 ;
Robert,. Dcmocnst, 13.JK17; White, Pro

towns last year gave McCutchins, Republi
can, 12,739; Weston, Democrat, 13.0S3 ;
Blackiuar, Prohibitionist, and scattering,
78.", which is a net gain for Cheney of 1,
711. Sutticient returns have already come in
to insure beyond doubt a sweeping victory
for the Republicans. The Republicans
claim that they have elected Cheney Gov
ernor by the people, aud all three Congress
men ; that they will have a majority of
thirty or forty in the legislature, also a
majority in tho Seuate, as the returns al
ready show the election of seven Seuators.
At present these claims seem well founded.
The Gubernatorial majority, however, will
probably bo small.

ONE CLASS OF THIEVES A PRETTY OP
"ERATION A THEATRICAL INCIDENT
. THE SCANDAL BUSINESS.
From Our New York Corrcpondput.
New York, March 9, 1875.
ONE CLASS OK THIEVES.
The ingenuity employed by the thieves
of this city is something miraculous.
Were the same talent and energy expended
upon legitimate pursuits, it would make
every oue of them independently rich and
of some use lo the world. It is one of the
mysteries of human nature why a mau
capable of putting up a scheme equal iu
point of vastness with the best of Tom
Scott'n railroad plans, aud involving in
finitely more labor, should devote himself
to the making of small sums illegally, and !
taking all chances that such operations
carry. J
With the small ones it is the same as
with the large ones. The favorite dodge
this winter is peddling. A woman appears
at an area door with a satchel of small
goods, pins, needles, or what not. By hook
or crook she gets up stairs into the main
hall, aud then her object is accomplished.
She tries hard to sell, for she wants all the
time possible. Nothing escapes her eye.
She takes the measure of the hall so accu
rately that she could walk blindfolded to
any given snot. She takes in the posi
tion of the doors, the kind of fastings in
side, and if left a moment to herself she
gets an impression in wax of tho key holes.
The position of bolts or other fastenings are
observed in short, she comes away with
an accurate photograph in her mind of just
as much of that house as her eyes have be
held. All this may be for the purpose of
plunder to the amount of a $25 overcoat or
it may be for a general raid upon the .house.
If the house contains valuables enough to
make it worth while, this information is
imparted to professional burglars, who,
with the iuformaliou thus obtained are
enabled to get into the bouse in twenty min
utes. If not so promising a house, there
are at least overcoats, umbrellas and over
shoes in the hall to be captured, and sneak
thieves make use of the knowledge. In the
latter case the time aud talent of the wo
man and of the thief who operates with her
arc employed for days and days on the
mere chance of plunder to the amount of
325 or 50, which, from the very circum
stances of the case must be sold for one
fourth its value. The parties interested do
not make fair days' wages at their bueiuess.
There is no class so poorly paid as the
thief, and yet once iu they never get out.
There is a fascination iu it that holds there
forever. Send one to the Sing Sing make
him labor hard for rive years, and discharge
him, and iu a week he is back at his old
trade, knowing the chances he takes of de
tection and the certain peualty that will
follow. It is au exciting life, and once
embraced is seldom relinquished.
A NICE OPERATION.
There are a great many ways of making
mouc besides stealing it, but the way a
Mr. Nelson, of Brooklyu, got capital to go
into business is about the ucatc.st for an
honest oue. Mr. Nelson went to a Mr.
Herring and purchased a block of lots for
5?45,000. When the deed was being made
he requested that the price should be stated
at 100,000, and as there could bo uo ob
jection to it, it was so done. The papers
were perfected and placed iu the hands of
a third party till Mr. Nelson should pay
the 515,000. Then Mr. Nelson went to a
big life insurauce company and said he
wanted to borrow seventy thousand dollars
on a block of lots in Brooklyn which he
had purchased of Mr. Herring. The in
surance company investigated the case aud
found that the deed represented a consider
ation of 100,000. They had tfio properly
appraised, and were willing to take a loan
of 870,000 on it, and instructed the lawyers
to draw up the papers. A mortgage of the
projierty was assigned to the company.
Mr. Nelson received 70,000. He paid Mr.
Herring 345,000 aud had 25,000 to use in
his business, which he ueeded. Mr. Nel
son ought to be immediately made Secre
tary of the Treasury. He would pay off
the National debt in three years.
AN INCIDENT AT A THEATRE.
A most paiutul incident occurred at oue
of the principal theatre- of the city the
other night. A youug and very beautiful
girl on the ballot corps, who during the run
of a spectacular piece had personated au
angel, died suddenly in the theatre in her
stage dress. She was arrayed iu all the
spaugles aud gauze of a stage-angel, aud
when struck with death was about to take
her place in the scene. The excitement
was intense, as may be supposed behind
the scenes. There were two hundred peo
ple iu the piece, and in five minutes the
entire company was assembled around the
inauimate form of the girl. The women
cried and wrung their hands, aud the men,
"albeit unused to the melting mood," could
not restrain their emotions. But the piece
had to go on all the same. Another angel's
dress was improvished aud put upon
auother girl, tho bell rang, up went the
curtain, crash weut the orchestra, aud ou
weut the piece, the audience never dream
iug that the smiling faces before them were
wet with tea is, aud that in a dressing
room lay a corpse. The girl died of abso
lute starvation. Her salary was the regu
lation oue of 0 per week, ou which she had
to support live persons. She was beautiful,
and could have sold herself for a high
price; high enough to have all the comforts
of life and even its luxuries, but she pre
ferred huuger and cold to shame aud sin,
and so died. She had been sick for weeks,
but had uot had a physiciau, for she could
not pay for the services of one.

in the caac which calls for special com
ment. The populace have thus far been
horribly disappointed because Beecher has
not been put on the stand. The appetite
grows on what it feeds on. After such
high seasoned dishes as Tilton, Moulton
and Mrs. Moulton. the Orvingtons were
flat and insipid. The spicy Beecher was
required to keep up the straiu. The Chair
man of the Lecture Committee at Winsted,
Connecticut, swore that the young lady in
Tilton's room, who was described by Tilton
as "a mere school girl of 17," was a mature
girl of 27 or 30. and that the condition of
dress in which he found them was not al
together so proper as it might have been,
though whatthat has to do with the ques
tion as to Beecher's guilt with Mrs. Tilton,
I am unable to see. Possibly the idea is
that if it can be established that Tilton
strayed into by and forbidden paths, his
wife and pastor had a perfect right to do
the same.
A promiuent member of Beecher's
church told me that the trial bad a fleeted
Beecher's Church seriously that over one
half of the old stand bys had gone out, and
that the immense attendance counted for
nothing, as it was made up largely by
strangers who went from sheer curiosity
to see the roan. There is some truth iu
this, but how much I am unable to say. 1
know personally very many families who
have been regular iu their attendance at
the church for years, who have withdrawn
under the belief that whether all that is
charged is true or not, enough is true to
make him an unfit man to keep his place
in such a church. And yet the pews sold
higher than ever. Probably the new-comers
in Brooklyn were those who made the in
vestments. There arc seventy-five wit
nesses yet to be examined, so the trial will
probably last a year. The testimony thus
far makes a closely printed octavo volume
of 600 pages.
BUSINESS
coutinues dull, generally speaking, though
some branches show an improvement. The
merchants are, however, hopeful, and the
feeling that a good spring trade must be
had, is general. The weather is terrible.
