The Beaver Anjui and KatUcal, in
an article under tie abore cepuon,
truthfully remarks as follows
The ornosition newsnaoera are
makinff much ado over what was
reallr a friendlr contest between cer
tain leaders ot tbe Republican party
at Harrisbarg last week over tbe
nomination of Auditor General. That
Governor Hartranft would have pre
ferred the nomination of General
Reeder is not disputed, but that be
declined to interfere personally n tne
contest is equally true. Had be
chosen to make the Cent bis own
Reeder would have been nominated
without a contest. Even as late as
Tuesday ereuinir he was informed
by Mr. Mackey and other leading
friends of Mr. Pa-iSrnore that if be de
manded it they would retire Jrom the
contest, but the Governor would not
set up his privato judgment against
1 . . t i t 1 . 3
that ot tbe majority oi mairienus uuu
ol the delegates. Owinar to recent
events a larte majority of the dele
gates to the Convention believed that
1'assmore would prove a much strou
ovr candidate before the people, and
for this eause alone he was nomica
ted. Three months since Gen. llee
der would have carried threc-fjurihs
of tbe Couvention. A desiro to ee
cure the strongest candidate alone
actuated the leading friends of Mr
Passmore, and there is no other sig
nificance to the friendly contest
which occurred over the nomination.
Tbe relations between Senator Cam
eron, Gen. Hart'ranf:, Col. Quay, Mr.
Mackey and Mr. Kemble remain un
changed, and will, notitbBtanding
tbe efforts of the Philadelphia Timtn
and newspaj-ers of like position in
politics to disturb them. Governor
liartranft does not desire to succeed
Senator Cameron in the I'nited
States Senate, byt will support the
Senator for re-election, cud Penn?yl-
rania will present and insist cn tbe
nomination of our trusted and popu
lar Governor for President in 1SS0.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania
underitcad this, and are not to be
demoralised or divided by such shal
low device of tho enemy. The
ticket nominated comments itself to
every Republican in tbe Common
wealth, will command every vote,
ad can and must be elected.

New York, September 11. A let
ter from Latacuaga, Peru, gives tbe
storv of the eruption tf.the volcano
of Catopaxi, which took place on
Julv 2j. Streams of water poured
from all the craters at once
oa the
Calao sido, sweeping away every
thing in their course. Acother irre
sistible torrent followed tbe course of
the Saquimal river. Tbe dwelling of
Signor Ponoso is in ruins. The Alo
ques river ovei flowed, and caused
great damage. Tho Cutebio over
flowed, carrying eveiy.h rg before it.
The splendid machine shop ' went
down like a card bouse at tLe first
rush of the waters; so did the various
mills. The entire district was like a
sea. And tho inuodation would have
destroyed the city had uot the course
of the floods been timely diverted into
the river channels. The total loss of
life will reach, if it does not exceed,
one thousand persons. At least two
thousand head of cattle have been
destroyed, and of smaller aaimalstho
loss is much greater. In the midst
of the roar of the waters and crashing
of houses, tbe volcano poured out
enormous quantities of ciuders, which
gradually darkened tbo whole face of
the heavens, and left Latocanga in
tbe profjoudeat obscurity from one
o'clock in the afternoon uatil ten at
night.

Major Welsh, with his revolverdrawn,

Bull to put bis pistol away. Turning
to Sitting Bull, he said : "I want you

you and your tribe 6ve days to leave

London, Sep. l." To the Otto
man caaseevprv moment is now of
value. No one but Osman Pasha
himself can tell how long ho can
hope to staud a siege. As much de
p?nds on the stated his mignz;ne,
ammunition and supplies a on the
skill of his t.-neineers or steadiness of
his riflemen, but no besiegsd army
ever is relieved too soon. Meliemet
Ali and Suleiman Pasha, if they
wauid save to tbe cau-e the Islim
stronghold ihat hhs stood as stub
bornly us a linn iu the path of the
invader, should straiu every nerve to
hasten every bayonet and saber they
can command to the bitiks of ths
Vid.
Tbat McLamet Ali is beginnlig
to move we have uo-v soiiie slight in
dications He has at least 130,000
men at his cmnjand. If with these
be pushes forward baldly, be sboubl
march from the Lorn to the Yid in
ten days, driving before bim the 30,
000 men that tbe Czarowitch has
stretched as a thin curtain aloi'g tbe
Jaatra.
As his left wing sweeps through
Tirnova it would not "uly di.-!dge
15,000 men tbat are scattered along

Thus be wculd c pn that road to
Suleiman Tasha, who appears de
termined, wi;h perverse obstinacy to
decline to cross tbe mountains oy any
of the many routes vybich are unde
fended, for bis repcrted movement ru
Gabrova is now found to have bceu
merely a reconaoissance.
Suleiman and Mehamet uaited
would bring into the plains 150,000
men. Osman Pasha has in Plevna
at least 50.Q00. Tbe whole armies
under tbe command of the Czar in
Bulgaria do not muster now 50,0(J0
bayonets. There is a great epp-m:
nitff for the Ottoman commanders if
they can bnt grasp it, but the Jmpe

DETAILS OF THE D IS. A ST Ell IN THE
ENGLISH CHANNEL
London, September 13 Further
details concert iog tbe collision of
the s!iiM Avalanche and Forest,
show tbat it occurred at 9:15 Tues
day night, twelve miles southwest of
Portland. The ships were beating
down the channel on opposite tacks.
Tbe Forest Btruck tbe Avalanche
amidsbip, rebounded and a ruck her
twice further aft. causing her to
louuder ia abou three minutes frjru
drat strikiug. There was no time to
launch b)ats. Tho night wa3 so
dark it was almost impossible to dis
cern the mass of human beings strug
gling iu tbo water below, but tbe
survivors say thry cbali Lever forget
the scene.
The boo, mu it bve booa literally
alive witb bum in beings to "whose
cries for help thero could not be any
response. There was a steady driz-
z.e, witn ec.'jfiJUiil gusts of ram.
The wind was btrootr aad the mi
very high. Cries were heard by the
crew i T the I orest, but they were
unuble to give any assistance. The
Forest was very leaky, ihe water
guiuing so fast tbat tbe ere had to
abiudon bs?r Three biats were
luiiocbuJ, and ia these tha whole
ere a- of the Forest, as tbe Captain sup
pjcd, w ith three men belonging to
tbe Avalanche, took passage. It ap
pears, however, that in tbo hurry
and excitement of the moment some
of the crew were left, for the Captain
in bis boat observed signal-lights
burning at the time.' Iloweyer, res
cue was hopeless, aad the poor fal
lows had to be left to their fate, the
wind and sea boiqg f rough that
the men thought their boat would be
swamped every minnte. Unfortu
nately in lb? case of two of the three
boats ttcro ti too nnjch reason for
believing these fears have been real
ized. Tbethiidbat belonging to the
ship Forest, which collided with the
ship Avalncbc, was washed ashore.
All hops of aay more survivors is
bbandjned. An inquest began to
day, but nothing new was developed.

taining twelve bottles of whiskey, aud
when Francis Murphy was apprised

tbe stuff be buried with funeral cere-
nnoies. Mr. Murpby beadtd the
processi.in, M;. Horace Bemis, .f

David Hall and Eccles Robinson,
were tbe chief mourners. At the
crave Mr. Murphy suid : ' VVo aro

self tbat can do it
Give me the spade
to dig the hole to bury ibis divil. He
is a serpent, and has stung us alL
We hate him as we do a rattles oake."
Mr Murphy then seized one of tbe
bottles, and trying to break it it
slipped from bis haud, and rolled
off tbo aibor from which be was
speakiog. He jumped after it, a dis
tance of abont twelve feet, and grasp
ing a spade, and glaring on the bottles
like a tiger, he smashed every one
of the dozen to smithereens, amidst
tbe wildest excitement.
