Hon. Lazarus Shoemaker, M.

voted against the salary grab, but
afterwards pocketed the money, has
been pet aside by his constituents,

and Hon. W. W. hclehum uas uecn

TnE Republican State Convention
will meet in Ilarribburg on Wednes
day, August 19, when candidates for
Lieutenant Governor, Auditor Gen
eral, Secretary of Internal Affairs,
and Judge of the Supreme Court
will be-put in nomination.
Tue Republicans of Montgomcry
county, at their convention last week,
passed a resolution rc-nominating
Governor Ilartrantt lor a seconu
term, and the Xorristown Herald
doubts not that the resolution will
be heartily seconded by he party
throughout the State.
Voters will please keep in mind,
that the 2d day of September is the
last day upon which a person can be
assessed lo enable him to vote in No
vember. Sixty-one days, instead of
ten days, arc now required before
election. Taxes must also be paid
one month before the election.
Thk public debt statement just
made public shows a further reduc
tion during the mon'.h of July amount
ing to $1,2S2, SCO. The expenditures
of the Government during the past
fiscal year, ending June 30, were
$-3,211,372 less than the previous
year, and amounted to $237,133,871.
At the election for delegate to
Congress, a few days since, the Mor
man women all voted for Cannon,
the present delegate, who is possess
ed of three wives. This goes to show
that the female Mormans are not op
posed to polygamy as is so constant
ly nerted, or that they are held in
complete subjection by their husbands.
The Congressional Convention in
the Third Louisiana district was held
on Friday Irst, and Hon. C. B. Par
all was nominated by acclamation
for his fourth term. This will be
cratifvin? news to the niaDV friends
of this gentleman in the southern
part of this county, from whence he
immigrated to Louisiana 6ome years
since. As the Third is one of the
strongest Republican districts in the
State, be will undoubtedly be re
elected. Gov. Woodson made a ppcech ia
Lafayette county, Missouri, the other
day, w hich it was Loped v. ould have

Grangers to join the Democratic par

George Bergner, Esq., editor and
proprietor of the Ilarrisburg Tde
yraj'h, died in the city of Ilarrisburg
after a brief illness on Wednesday
last Mr. Bergner, many years since,
was the editor of this paper, and is
Ftill remembered by the older class
of our citizens. By his energy and
industry he made the Ilarrisburg
Tdcgrajth a very valuable property.
He was a prominent politician in the
Republican party and was extensive
ly known throughout the State.
The late elections in Kentucky,
Tennessee, Missippi and North Car
olina all resulted :n favor of the De
mocracy by large majorities. The
principal issue wa9 the Civil Rights
bill. These States are naturally
Democratic, although two years since
the Republicans carried North Car
olina by about two thousand major
ity. In Kentucky and Tennessee the
elections were in many places mark
ed by the usual series of riot and
bloodshed, the negroes being assault
d and attempts made to drive them
from the polls.
The New York World has this to
Bay of tie Indiana Democratic plat
form and iu repudiation plank: "A
very dead horse lies spread out, stiff,
etark, and cold, on the IndiaLa Dem
ocratic Platform. It is the Pendle
ton proposition to pay the five-twenty
bonds in greenbacks. Some ras-
rally Ohio politician dumped it there,
w e suppose, to destroy Mr. Hendricks'
chances for the Presidential nomina
tion ia 187C. That dead horse had
better be carted off to the rendering
vaU as soon as con v '.cut 'The

Is all the counties of this State ia
w hich county Treasurers are elected
this year, they hold their offices for
three years, instead of two a3 pre
scribed by the old Constitution.
The county Commissioner elected
in the fall will only hold their posi
tions for one year commencing Jan
uarv 1st. 1ST5. and ending January
1st. 157C. In the fall of 18T5 three
I Commissioners wul be elected to
j hold their offices for three years.
Each voter, however, w ill only be al
lowed to vote for two of these.
The
Cles of the English newspa-
pcrs, in
the latest mails, confirm the
tf. Cariist atrocities. "It
is reported from Olot," says one
journal, -that one hundred and eighty
men of the Nouvilas column, who
had been prisoners there for some
time, have been shot in cold blood.
The taking of Cuenca was character
ized by horrible brutalities, which
the wife of Don Alfonso is accused
of having instigated. The Civil
Guards had every tenth man shot,
end the town was given up to plun
der. But the ruffians were met by a
Republican party as they retreated
and had to disgorge all their spoil,
besides losing many of their officers."
These stories are confirmed by trust
worthy newspapers, and one journal
insists that ''something will have to
be done to prevent outrage on inter
national law."
Nearly two-thirds of the time of
the late court in Blair county was oc
cupied in trying case3 for violation of
the local option law. The provisions
of the law appear to be more rigidly
enforced in Blair than in any of the
counties in this section xf the State,
and Judge Dean enforces the penal
ties with a just and unsparing hand.
From aa exchange we gather the
following list of convictions, and fines
and penalties imposed: Levi Knott,
$220, costs, and ninety days in jail;
Samuel Rhen, $50 and costs; Pat
rick Redmond (the racer,) $50 and
costs; W. R. Smith, $200, costs, and
ninety days ia jail; Mrs. Anna Lash

F. W. and Charles Rauch, $200 and
sixty days each in jail. Total amount
of fines $1,170.
Congressman William Lawrence
of Ohio, Chairman of the Committee
on War Claims, has written a long
letter to the Ttie Cincinnati Commer
cial, in which he gives some interes
ting facts. lie says the claims now
pending before Congress reach about
$20,000,000, many of whirii arc test
claims, which, if successful, will be
toliowed by very many millions more.
The judgments of the Court of Claims
for the year 1S73 amounted to $439,-
034. The claims paid under relief
acts by Congress for the same year
were $797, 74S. lie could not state
the amount paid on allowances of
the departments, .but it was immense,
and included $1,930,079 for claims
for captured and abandoned property.
In concluding his letter Mr. Law
rence says: "On political questions
the people and the press arc vigilant.
But they should be more vigilant ia
watching the non-political votes of
members of CoDgress, or their failure
to vote, than they are. If they were
so the 'lobby' would de deprived of
much of its power. I venture to say
that the House Committee on War
Claims at the last session of Congress
did more work than the whole Su
preme Court of some of our States in
ia a whole year, and yet, as their
work was not necessarily political,
the people know but little of it. One
of the first claims reported against
asked for nearly a million. Others
but little less met the same fate.
Not one man in a thousand is aware
of the fact that claims most fraudu
lent iu character and amount have
been urged with immense power and
influence. One member of the lobby
declared his purpose to expend $3,000
to defeat the nomination of a certain
member of Congress who was re
garded as an obstacle ia the way of
some larrrc claims.''
Trenton Partially Iunndnlnl.
f Trenton, August 3. The
mam
reservoir which supplies the city
with water gave way this afternoon
and sent about thirty millions cf gal
lons of water over the city, and down
Pennington avenue, with a mighty
rush, filling the cellars of most houses
for a quarter of a mile distant. The
chasm in the south end is about a
mile in extent at the top. There is
no serious damage aside from the
filling of cellars, drowning of chick
ens and carrying away of fencing.
The accident was caused by leakage
around an old pipe which had been
icit lmueuaea ia ice sou ever since
the new reservoir was built.' One

BEECflER AND TILTOX.
Beecher. Beecher. Beecher. Til-
inn TiHmi Tilton. We are bavin
a serfeit of Beecher and rather too
much of Tilton. None of your sen
ses can escape either Beecher or Til
ton. As you walk the streets the
news,-- howl "All about tha Beech-scandal-l-l!"
You look over the
dead walls, and portraits of Beecher
and Tilton, in advertisements of sen
sation papers, stare you ou or coun
tenance. Sit down at table, and
your next neighbor will, a. thousand
to onp nit von. "What is the latest
regarding the Beecher scandal?" and
insist nnnn discussing the entire case,
finrruMth the marriaire of
Tilton, down to the absorbing conun
drum. "What will Jloulton testify
to?"
And bv the way the whole thing
?naf nnn- eimmers down upon i"'o
one man, Moulton. The fate of Hen
ry Ward Beecher is in the hands of
fnnlton While Tiltoc has been
gaining friends every day and Beech

after all Tiltoa's unsupported state
ment will never drive Beecher out of
For while Tilton affirms, Mr.

his statement. -oone wdo kuows
the parties doubt's Mr. Becchcr's
guilt, but the people get very judicial
in such cases, and insist upon the
charges . being proved judicially.
Now, Mr. Frank Moulton wa3 with
Tilton when Tilton charged Beecher
with the crime, and it has been stated
over and over again that Beecher
confessed to adultery with Mrs. Til
ton in the presence of Moulton. The
great moral, or rather immoral ques
tion is, will Moulton swear to this?
If so, it settles the entire question
and makes a funeral of Mr. Beecher.
If not, while the people at large, will
believe all that Tilton Las charged,
Plymouth Church will effect to disbe
lieve it, and hold its pastor.
."Why should not Moulton testify to
what he knows, he being a friend of
Tilton? Because it is no small thing
to incur the enmity of so strong and
powerful a body as Plymouth Church,
and whoever assaults Beecher does
just that To Plymouth Church
Beecher is more than a man, he is a
demigod. They believe in him, in a
wild way, as the sum total of every
thing that is good and great, and no
matter what the proof may be they
proposo to take him through.
If Moulton sides with Tilton to the
extent of supporting Lira by testimo
ny, vials of wrath equal in quantity
and quality to those uncorked upon
Tilton, will be poured over bis de
voted head, and that Mr. Moulton
cannot afford. It remains la be scon
whether he will Lave the nerve to do
this.
Now that Tilton has been arrested
for libel and the matter has got into
Courts, it is possible that Moalton the
may be compelled to swear. If so,
look out for the broken crockery. By
the wav.
IT IS A MISTAKE
to put Tilton down as a blatherskite,
cr as an utterly unreliable man. He
i3 a maa of great genius, a good and
true friend and in most things steady
and level-headed. He has notions
that take him out cf the channels in
which men float, and his cross-country
expeditions have been frequent,
and to him most disastrous. His
operation which the Wroodhull bore
him, though I doubt if there was any
thing more in it than what he stated.
She is a wonderfully attractive wo
man wonderful in intellectual force,
wonderful in conversation, and with
a peculiar wierd way about her that
could cot but catch and hold a
dreamy poet such as Tilton is at
times. Then they held views to some
extent in common on the questions of
love and .marriage, and there was
just enough of danger in supporting
her to make it fascinating to him.
Besides all these there was a business
consideration involved which Tilton
in his circumstances could not over
look. Altogether Theodore is a good
fellow. He ba3 his faults he is
indiscreet and impulsive, but who of
us is perfect? I presume I am not, at
least I am not going to hurl the first
rock at Tilton.
I predict that Mrs. Tilton will come
back to him, and that despite all that
has happened he will take ber back.
For he loves her and he pities her.
She is the mother of his children,
and Theodore Tilton can no more live
separated from her than fly. When
this wretched business is over they
will be reunited, and possibly a
change w ill be wrought in both of
them that will make their lives hap
pier. BOSS TWEED
has well-nigh gone out of public sight.
It is astonishing how soon a man is
forgotten in New York politics, when
he has nothing to give. He might
as well be dead. It is true be Las
influence enough to get better treat
ment than other convicts, but that
is about the extent of it The old
man went over to the Island, and
that day his star set. Other aspi
rants for power administered upon
his estate at once.
The venerable old villain's politi
cal property wa3 divided just as soon
as it was ' tolerably certain that he
could not get out for. a year. Mor
rissey grabbed a portion, and the
other gin-mill politicians took the
balance, and were Tweed out to-day,
he could hardly reinstate himself ; for
the men who have usurped his place
will bold what they have, and the
old man Laving no places to dispose
of, could not organize a new party
to eland at Lis back.N They like him
as well as they ever did that is,
those who liked him at all but per
sonal liking has little to do with such
matters. The politician anywhere is
6flSsh the New York politician is
particularly and essentially so. He
commands respect precisely ia pro
portion to Lis power once dead, al
ways dead.
But I am happy to be able to say
that the old rings will dcvct again
have the power once wielded. Tweed
held it all in his bands and used it to
the advantage of himself and Lis
friends unquestioned and unchecked.
He was the source of power and the
fountain of wealth. Whoever wa3
useful to him was rewarded magnifi
cently, and whoever w as opposed to
him was mercilessly killed. But now
that power is divided. There are a
dozen able and unscrupulous men as
piring to be Tweeds, and as they are
wavering with each other, it is not
impossible for the decent elements of
the city to wrest the power from them
and reform and purify the govern
ment it is fortunate that each of the
aspirant leaders Lad ra-ther see the
power go into the Lands of the oppo
sition than to let it be grasped by a
rival. Let us hone that heso rocucs
will continue to fall out, till honest
men come to their own.

here. A c.ild of about five years of

parents coufd get to it wa3 by adver
tising in the Herald. The answer
came promptly the child had been
stolen and was being held for a ran

hlooded villains made a mistake, for
tha parents of the child Lave no
means and cannot possibly raise a
tenth part of the sum demanded. The
fact that they lived in a good iiouo-c
in a fashionable quarter of the town,
and rode in a carriage and dressed
ia purple and fine linen deceived the
operatives. They did not know that
the house was mortgaged, that the
carriages were hired, and that the
daily profits of the head of the house
was absorbed in keeping up indicated
wealth. Hereafter fhe kidnapping

BERG II AND BARXU.M.
Bergh is after Barnum. Burgh says
the hurdle-racing in Barnum's Hip
podrome is cruel and dangerous, and
he cites the fallowing facts: The
performances at the Hippodrome com
menced on the 17th of April, and up
to the 17th inst the following casuaH
ties have occurred : Miss Hess, arm
broken by being thrown from her
horse; at the same time two rthcr
ladies were thrown, but not hurt.
Mis3 Lewis, hurt by being struck
with the pole of a chariot. Miss
Alice Costcneigra, hurt by being
thrown from the racer Castro, and
having a horse jump on her; Castro
was instantly tilled, but the lady has
since reported for duty. Frank Doo
ley, leg broken while riding an ele
phant rac, and death ensued. Mrs.
Anna Davis, collar-bone broken by
the horse Spot falling with her over
a hurdle, and dead.
But just as Bergh got ready to
move on the great showman, the en
tire concern was moved to Boston,
where, there being no Berg, horse?

I rather believe that Barnum started
the report as an advertisement.
People will go a long way to see a
horse fall on its rider.

The Steamer Pat Rogers Biimri!.
Cincinnati, Aug. 5. The steamer
Tat Rogers, owned by the Louisville
Mail Company, was burned to the
water's edge, at Laughrey's Island,
at an early hour this morning. About
five o'clock thi3 morning several
bales of cotton, which formed a part
of the cargo, caught fire, it is suppos
ed, from sparks from the chimneys,
and the boat was burned to the
water's edge. The boat and cargo,
the latter consisting of cattle, sheep
and hogs, arc a total loss. The pas
senger register and all the books
were lost. The boat was valued at
$G0,000, It was insured ia Cincin
nati for $32,000, aad in Louisville for
$5,000. The value of the cargo La3
not been ascertained.
Mr, Holmes, the engineer, arrived
at Cincinnati, and was interviewed
by several reporters and gives the
following account of the burning.. It
was just about six o'clock when jnstj
opposite Laughrey Creek, that Hows
into the Ohio river two miles below
Aurora, that I noticed a bright light
among some bales of cotton ia the
after part of the boat; hastened to
the spot and found the cotton to be
burning rapidly and beyond any
possibility of immediately extinguish
ing it. I hastened to the hurricane
deck and gave the alarm to the pilot
that the boat was burning, and told
him to run ashore. The pilot at once
turned the boat's head to the shore
aiid immediately she became unman
ageable. The pilot elates that he
could turn the wheel, but the steamer
would not answer to her helm. He
thinks the tiller rope had been cut.
From this fact it is thought the fire
was the work of an incendiary.
Another theory is that one of tLe
deck passengers, while smoking drop
ped sparks from his pipe into 1 cot
ton. When the boat became unman
ageable she drifted on to the sand
bar and there grounded. The' flames
spreading along the lower deck at
once 6hot up to the cabin and pilot
house, then swept across the hurri
cane deck. The passengers were all
aroused and boats lowered, and
many carried to the shore, but others,
in their fright, jumped into the water,
and those who were not drowned
reached safe landing places after
drifting a long time with the current.
There were nearly a hundred people
on board, but what proportion of this
number was actually lost is notj
known at this time, as many reported
missing hare been seen by some on
shore after the disaster.
The Suicide ofUorilou (;orilo.
St. Paul, Minn., August 4. The

Bain, a lawyer acting for Marshall &

Corbett's, where Gordon boarded,
and Monroe made the arrest in the
presence of the others. Gordon
seemed calm and self-possessed, but
asked if it was another kidnapping af-
iair. un ueinnr assured tbat it was
not, and hearing the nature and reg

be should not be taken through the
States. Ho also asked the privilege
of changing his clothes for heavier
ones, and the handcuffs were removed
for that purpose, Monroe following
him very closely. He went to the
foot of the bed pretending to look for
his Scotch cap, when he seized a pis

ard Tenbrock, the well known horse
owner, was shot and reported mortal
ly wounded at Oilman's Station, this
county, this evening by General Wal
ter AVhittaker, a lawyer cf this city.
Particulars of the affair are not known.
Whittakcr has already killed two
men, and is regarded as a desperate
character. It will be remembered
that Tenbrock took a number of
Am ericaa horses to England a num
ber of years since, and matched them
against English runners. A later
dispatch says, Col. U. Tenbrock,
shot by Gen. Whittakcr, wa3 not
dangerotisly wounded, Whittakcr
fired at him four times, the last shot
hitlinjr Tenbrock in the cener of
tho forehead, but fortunately glanced
upward, cutting a ridge through the
forehead and hair, but not penetra
ting the t-kull. Tenbroek's cseapo is
regarded as very extraordinary.
Whittakcr had an examination trial
and was admitted to $2,500 bail.
His attack seems to have been un
provoked. Tenbrock was unarmed.
There is much excitement in the city
over the affair.
Steamboat Disaster.
ViCKSBVRO, Aug. 8. The steamer
Henry Ames, with a full cargo, from
.St Louis for New Orleans, struck a
snag last night near Water Proof,
and sunk in twenty-five feet of water.
The II. C. Yeager is alongside the
sunken steamer. Only three lives
are known to bo lct.
The Henry Ames had a full trip,
about 1,500 tons through and 300
tons way freight, consisting of grain,
bacon, flour, potatoes and hay, and
1,500 packages , of sundries. The
sinking was caused by striking a hid
den obstruction.
A German woman and two Chil
dren going to lbiyou .Sara, and a
Frenchwoman going to Cook's Land

Xo cabin passengers arc missing.
The books and papers were saved.
Insurance $25,000 on the boat.

A little girl in the infant class of a
Brooklyn Sunday school appreciated
better the difference between being
good from choice and necessity than
many elders. At the close of a re

" Reekie, my dear, you were a very

couldn't help bein' good. I got a 'tiff

There was a duttf-pout at Central
Falls, R. I., tho other day. A dense
volume of dust was seen to suddenly

top of it seemed to dwindle to a mere
speck against the clouds. The sight
is described by those who' witnessed
it as wonderful, although of abort
duration, the cloud or spout beiug
soon broken and falling in showers
of dust in the vicinity. It was pro
duced by tho same peculiar rotnrr
motiou of the nir that produces water
spouts.
There is a young man iu a West

to do next time. Seeing a good
chance to kiss a pretty girl of his ac

willingness to interfere with his os
culatory intent, but stole the kiss,
and thought perhaps that it was u
knowing fellow who declared that
" stolen kisses are sweetest." Every
rose has its thorn, however, and the
young man fonnd it so by having to
pay a fine of $10. But after all there
came healing, for the day after his
trial he received a note from the
young lady enclosing the amount of
the fine, and telling him "the next
time " ho kissed her to be less rough
about it, and to be careful to 4do it
when father isn't round."
