We observe that a number of Dem
ocratic journals art endeavoring to
inspirit their readers of the same
faith with the jubilant cry of great
gains at the late election in Vermont,
and some of tbera even claim an ad
ministration defeat" in that State.
YTell the Republicans elected their
entire State ticket by Borne 25,000
majority, and" have 15C majority in
the Assembly, while in the Senate
the Pemocrats have one Bingle, soli
tary, lone member. If in tho eyes of
tho Democracy this is a Republican
defeat, we would like to know what
would constitute a victory.
" This from the Pittsburg Commer
cial: Latta,the Democratic candi
date for Lieutenant Governor, made
an active canvass of his own county,
a few weeks before the Democratic
State Convention was held, as a can
didate for Congress, and was beaten
800, by tis own immediate neighbors.
Tbev know him, and that is the way
they testify their appreciation of him.
The Democrats of Westmoreland
have passed their Tcrdict upon him,
that he is unEt to 0 to Congress ;
and if unfit for that, how can he be
fit for Lieutenant Governor ?
Jodgo Olmsted, on tho contrary,
was received, on bis return home
from the Republican State Conven
tion, with a refect ovation, -which
was participated in by Democrats
and Republicans alike. His fellow
citixensknowhim.justas tho West
moreland people know Latta; but
they turn out en mane to greet him,
whilst the Democrats of Westmore
land regard Latta as too poor an
object even to send to Copgress.
Judging from the proceedings of
the Bedford County Republican Con
vention, as chronicled in the Inquirer
of last week, "for tricks that are
vain," the' local politicians of that ilk
are peculiar. If they can't beat a
candidate one way they will try an
other, and they apparently under
stand the philosophy of the adage
that runs : "There are more ways of
killing a dog than by choking him
with butter." j
According to the Inquirer the con-
vention composed of twenty-eight j
delegates, casting cixty-four votes, as
Bcmhled on Tuesday last The scats
of four delegates were contested, and
the convention resolved to consider
these cases ia coromitte of whole. The
first case taken up that of the dele
gate from Southampton after state
ments by tho contestants and a full
discussion was decided against tne
sitting delegate, whereupon twelve of
the delegates entitled to cast thirty-
one votes, seceded from the Conven
tion. The convention then proceed
ed to nominate Hon. John Cessna for
nnnsrress. Gcd. D. S. Elliott for Sen-
O '
ator, and a full county ticket j
The bolters" effected a separate or
ganization, nominated J. B. Williams,
Esq., for Congress, and adopted the
balance of the ticket, nominated by
the regular convention. Both con
ventions authorized their nominees
for Congress to select their own con
ferees. From this 6tate of facts it is
apparent that the sole object of the
bolters'was the defeat of Mr. Cessna,
and being unable to do this in con-
volition, through lack of numerical
strength, ther seceded, and by the
nomination of Mr. Williams and the
appointment of confereea, now pro
pose to transfer their fight to the dis
trict conference. Clearly in a minor
ity in the county convention, we can
not conceive how they hope to gain
admission to the district conference
f.ir ihpir renrescntatives. As a re-
v. I
spectablo minority they have the
rlgtj, to protest against Mr. Cessna'6
nomination, and to urge the impolicy
of it in the faca of their hostility, but
we trust that their .candidate, (Mr.
Williams,) who is said to fc a most
estitnabh? gentleman, will not.endan
gcr the haruwny of t,he party in the
district by uxgiej; spon the confer
enca a claim which, uaisr tic circum
stances, be mus. feel to be fcoucjess.
Another piece of unseemly etrateri
gy resorted to by these Bedford coun
ty politicians was the presentation of
Col. Yutzy's namo as a Senatorial
candidate against the two candidates
their ova county. I his, in our
in
udgment, was not only wrong per ,
but was calculate to teriouslj injure
the candidate of our county Lj of
fensively thrusting him into contest
purely local, with which he bad no
desire to interfere. The object of
thus csing the name of Col. Yulzy
we do not Lwjy, but we are pleased
to observe that tU Inquirer very
properly and justly acqaiU Lici of all
previous knowledge of what It atyleai
"this discreditable business." '
On tie wjtole our Bedford friends
have pontrived to gX jup a very pret
ty quarrel among themsetaxi, to the
hure delicbt of the Democracy at
the district Jf, therefore, the con
ference deem it the part of prudence
to set aside the claims of their can
didates, they have only themselves
to LJame for it We trust, however,
tlat calm reflection and a desire to
conserve tho bet interests of the dis
trict will not only iniuenre our irri
tated friends in Bedford, but cootrol
the action of the , on(erees of ihe
other counties. Let m tare peace !

Ot R SEW YORK LETTER.
' New York, September 13, 1874.
Tnt Weather asp Babies.
The last weeks ot August in this
citT were cool, uncomfortably so. In
the middle of the day there would
be two hours of scorching heat, but
bvthno o'clock it wouldt get . cool,
and farther on atill cooler, till the
nighi demanded light overcoats, and
plenty uf clothing on the beds. But
September is making amends for it.
It is hot Warm is no namo for
it it is hot And with tbe renewal
tho heat comes the renewal of
mortality among the children. July;
nd Auirust killed four thousand
children; and September, unless the
rii-knroctill mnre
neat uecreses, iu
ghastly record. For New York even,
in its. best parts, istJop!ace for
children.
Even in the most comfortable parts
in the upper city, the heat of the
summer's snn, reflected from brick
walls and paved streets, keeps the
air in an unhealthy condition that re-;
quires the strength of maturity to en
dure it And then think of the can
dition of the children of the poor in
lower town! Think of the narrow
lanes and alleys, tbe insufficient
drainage, the utter absence of venti
lation, the scant and unfit food; in
short, the poison that is in the earth,
the air, the bedding, the food, in
everything, in short, and the wonder
is not that so many children die," but
that any lire. '
Of course charitable people do
what they can to alleviate and miti
gate this suffering; but what can pri
vate charity do, with such multitudes
to do for? It cannot touch one casein
atbousml What is wanted js law,
sweeping in its provisions and inexor
able in execution. The old rookeric s,
in which the suffering thousands ex
ist for a while and die, should be
torn down, and no buildings of the
kind should bo permitted. The
authorities Bhould have the power to
compel the proper ventilation and
proper drainage, and overcrowding
should be prohibited. Excursions on
the river are good as far as they go,
but the life a sick child gets in;
one day on the river is taken out of it
the night it gets home. It i3 a pity '
that our great cities could not be
governed with reference to the sani
tary condition of those compelled to
live in them. But they never are
and never will be. "Every man for
himself" is the motto in the city,
where it take3 a man's undivided
attention to keep himself afloat.

America will, eventually, feed the

The steamer City of Chester sailed
last Wednesday, and in her cargo

a Ccaious Suit for a Cuurcit.
A singular lawsuit has been com
menced in the city .court which is ex-
ritlnw sonws comment w rclisious
circles. .. .
The Fulton Street Church, known
far and wide for its noon-day prayer-
meetings, was built from a . bequef-t
made, over a century ago, by ' &'
Dutchman named Ilarpcndice, the
conditions of which were that tho
poPDel according to the Dutch Cal-
vtnbUa should be preactied mercm
forever, i$ tba Nether Dutch ' lan
euaffe. and tbe in'ices should be
conducted according to tho usages of
tbe Dutch Reformed Church oJ that
Kr.
The JTcther Dutch language is no
more spoken iaXfi.it, York, to day,
than is tbe Hottentot, ant the usages
and ceremonials of the Reformed
Church went out a century ago. But
there comes one William Hastings, of
California, who claims to be tbe right
ful owner of pew No. 76. on the
ground'floor of the venerable pile.who
prays that the court shall interfere to
restore the ancient services of that
Church the language of the Neth
er Dutch." ft is a question among
tbe legal lights wjietter. eccording to
the Uarpendich bcauesl. XJ. 1.183-
tings cannot make bis casq.
The terms of tbe bequest were plain
enough, and opinion differcs as to
whether there can be any departure
made therefrom. If ' he make3 his
case, tba .church will cither be com
pelled to gfvfi p revenues or go
back to a language which ?rent out
with the Dutch, and to cercBioolals
that died a hundred yeara ago. It is
a queer case. .
T.sje Great Bridge.
For some yea;? Jho cities of New

work on an enormous cusireesion
bridue across tbe East River. The
tower-piers on either shore are nearly
completed, some millions of dollars
having been expended npon'lheni.
And now comes an important ques
tion, over which tbe engineers are
pnrzling their wi.e beads: Can a
bridge J ,800 feet long be suspended
in the 'fir with 6afety? It would
seem that thfs'isfa rether late day for

and competent engineers assert that1
wire cables cannot be made' strong

The Mexnonite
A great deal has 1een anticipated
from the proposed movement to this
country of a religious feet known a3
Mennonites, from Russia Ttese
people are, like our Donkard3, oppos
ed to military servica, auu ins-i'im-"cipal
reason of their cmiraiion to
this country is to avoid that duty.
Three hundred of them arrived in
this city last week to join those who
have preceded them, and are now
settled in Dakota. They are a sturdy,
solid, coraforUWe-looking people. The
women and- children are dressed in
blue calico frocks., and for their head
gear wear the same colored handker
chiefs.'. Many of these emigrants
who bad arrived with a comfortable
sum of money had become wealthy
farmers in Kansas, but the majority
of them have had a hard time. The
men were burdened generally with
five or six children, and while seek
iog "work they had to spend what
funds they had accumulated.
The trouble with emigrants is, .the
condition of things in this country is
too highly colored. They are led to
believe that a living comes to them
tho moment they land, and when
they find that they have not only to
labor, but that they have privations
to go through with, the weak 6nes
are discouraged. Some of the Men
nonites in this party were met by a
few who bad come on from Dakota
to meet tbem, and when told of the
actual condition of things they beg
ged hard to return to their native
country that they might cam a liveli
hood, father than go to the wild
country they had been Eent to.
,., Oysters September.
'
One day last week ' every . man,
woman and child in New York ate
oysters, that day being the first day
of September. That is to say, every
one could and should have eaten
oysters. For there is a superstition
that oysters are neither good nor
wholesome m tne montus tnat nave
no "r" in tucm June, July and
August. The first ' of September is
the regular opening day for tho oys
ter trade, and a busy trado , it is.
New York supports something over
7,000 oyster saloon3, aad it is esti
mated that every day over one mil-
ion of dishes of stews, fne3, raws,
etc., are consumed in tocsc salooDS.
One hundred vessels are required to
bring the oysters from Virginia tbat
are planted in the waters in this vi
cinity, in which they come to perfec
tion, and the trade in Iho city aloGe
requires tho . undivided attention of
100,000 men. It is an enormous
trade. Suppose the oyster crop should
be aa entire failure for a single year!
What a terrible calamity it would be
to the world 1 WhatT would become
of church fa;r3? What would be
come of but I will not dwell
on a subject so painful. Let us be
thankful- that the crop tnis vcar
promises not only well, but more than
well that the oysters arc fat and in
good condition, and that there arc
plenty of them.
Business. ;,
Everybody expected as did I, that
there would be a revival of trauo ere
this. Alas! our hopes have not been
realized. There are a lanre number
of merchants in the city, but they an
not buving. The bouthern trader3
are making light purchases, but tho
Western, who are the best the-stand-
bys are buying little or nothing as
yet They do not complain of "hard
times" seriously, but they arc putting
off till they know something to a cer
tainty. There is a feeling of uncer
tainty tbat prevents transactions of a
large kind. In the meantime our
merchants arc waiting anxiously. Ob
ye people ! if you have any feeling for
distressed people, clean out the stocks
ofyour'own merchants, that- they
may be , compelled to buy. New
York is suffering for your money. '
Every man in business insists that
trade must be good this fall, but the
question is, when? Trade was never
so slack at this, season 01 tbe year,
and no one can account for it. Let
ps hope that the wheels will begin to
move immediately ; and that when
tney move, it will be to some pur
pose. "

This command has tollowed tho con

river, making rapid marcnea anu
gaining steadily on them until yester
day, when they turped and made- aa
attack, which was repulsed. They
retreated to a strong postion, display
ing a force of about 500 warriors. The
troop3 had made extraordinary efforts
and endured every privation in tneir
energetic and rapid pursuit. In two
days they marched BixtyrGre miles.
1 bey came op to the attacn in
splendid spirits and without a halt
went into the hgnt.
The cavalry, artillery and infantry
were all in, and tbe Indians, wbo
appeared very brave; at first,
broke and ran in every direction.
Whenever they made a stand they
were charged and rented. For 110
miles, from Sweet "Water to the
Stalked Plains, their line, of retreat
is strewn with abandoned property
and broken down animals. They
burned their : Tillages during the
nijrht. i ' - '
We have trailed small parties out
on the : Llano Estaco, and may fol
low them across tbe 'trail running
west. As we are 130 miles from our
base of supplies, I would request that
additional transportation be sent to
Camp Supply, to keep us supplied.

TUP ncvolnf Ion In Louisiana.
The Atlanta Daily News attempts
d justification of what it calls tho
"Revolution in Louisiana," the ob
ject of which is the compulsory vaca
tion of their othcial positions uy tne
Republican parish officers. . They are
given the alternative of death or res
ignation. Many have resigned to
save their lives, aud others have died
rather than yield. As some of our
readers may be disposed to disbelieve
the existence of this condition ot at
fairs in Louisiana, and to throw the
blame of tbe riotous proceedings on
the negroes, we ' annex an extract
from the Atlanta JVeir, which sets
the matter at rest: "
"It is not our purpose to conceal
any fact. The Louisiana marched
upon the capitals of tbe several par
ishes and forced tho Kellogg officials
to resign. There ' was violence in
the act, but it was a violence necessa
ry to their salvation. They had no
courts to appeal to; no government
that would redress their grievances,
and so they sought the last of all hu
man courts, and took the matter into
their own hands.
Thus far, parish after parish has
fallen into the hands of the whites.
What has been most remarkable in
the campaign is its almost bloodless
character. Now and then collisions
have oecured, and a few lives lost;
but in nearly all the parishes the quiet
resolution of tho whites, and the evi
dence they give to the perfect readi
ness for the worst, had the desir.
ed effect The negroes quietlye. dis
persing after due warning of the con
sequences of resistance, and the bogus
officials acquiesced in tho : revoluttcn
by sending in their resignations. 1;
"Such is the history of the revolu
tion now progressing in - Louisiana
If President Grant will keep '. his
bands off, it will result beneficially to
the State and to the people."
Tbe New Orleans Times, a leading
Democratic paper of New Orleans,
thus candidly speak9 : of the recent
murder of the six white Republican
parish' officials in tbat State.-

A Horrible Story.
St Louis, September 8. The
Globe ha3 a communication from
Saquache, Colorado, which states
that the bodies of five men were found
oh August 13th near the lake fork of
the4Gunpison river, in SauLu is Park.
These bodies proved to be ,il,c re
muiu? of a boily of miners who start
cdJasiNovemLer from Southern Utah
across the mountains to the San J uan
mines, in Colorado, and wero report
ed last March by ono of their com
panions, named Packer, to have un
dergone terrible hardships in tho
mountains, and finally becoming
nearly : crazed from hung -. chose
cuts tfo see who should I U-t to
furnish food for the rei:t.u-Kuv This
story was published at .1- tl.ue in
the Territorial and otlur papers. It
now proves that Packer murdered
those men bv chopping their hcad3
off with a hatchet, robbed them of
their money and other property, and
then told tho story of cannibalism to
hide the crime. He has been arrested,
however, and is now in jail. The
names of those murdered are Real
Swan, from Missouri; George Noon,
from California: Shannon W. Bell,
supposed to bo from Ohio; James
Humphrey, supposed to be from Phil-
ade'phra, and Frank A.Miller, a Ger
man.
KhocblnfC Outrage.
Memphis, September 8. At an
early hour yesterday morning a par
ty of negroes entered Mr. Durant's
residence on Pigeon Roost road,
near the city. A young girl of tbe
family discovered tbem and gave an
alarm, when she was set upon by the
party, knocked down and beaten so
badly tbat sho will probably die. Mr.
Durant hearing tbe noise, came in
and was fired upon by several of the
party, then seized and beaten, but
managed to escape and fled. His
wife was then seized, stripped and
beaten, and an attempt made to out
rage her, but her screams aroused the
neighbors and the negroes fled. It
13 believed the assailants wero from
Central Point a disreputable locality
in this citv. :

la 18H I mvemed and secured letters patent foraa
Improvement in Wash Boilers,
A simple arrangement by which steam was ap-
lled to the washing of clothing. I have hereto,
ore sold this under the name of
Steam Washer,
OR
WOMAN'S FRIEND,
For such It Is in fact. 1 hare advert il it in hmv.
ly evsry Religious Newspaper in the Cnitcd
States aud Canada, also in tbe leading secular
papers, using doublecolumn advertisements. The
readers of this paper may remember seeing my
card In the various papers of the country during
the past year. Extracts from letters received Iroiu
my customers. In another column, wlli indicate how
li has been received by the people throughout the
ewunirj.
300,000
Have Iteen sold already. It Is suffl'dent for my
purpose to say that I am satisfied that nothing
heretofore advertised ever rendered so general
Satisfaction. Yet this my Brst Invention was not
quite perfect, and lor the last two years 1 have ap
plied myseu to me study 01 constructing ami per
ecting a
NEW
STEAM WASHER,
And as the result of my efforts I feel every assu.
ranee that I have been entirely successful. My-
newair.Au w asiir.ti. pateuteii in 1x73, is ao
solutely faultless; so much so that I never knew
a single person, who hail seen it work, fail to be
delighted with IU Ithas rendered, thus tar,
Perfect and Universal Satisfaction,
And such must be the result, for It works like a
wow DDI never falling to do all claimed for it.
in conclusion, let me say, that should any one
say that he has seen a steam washer, atk him If he
nas seen tne new
