While the results of the late local
elections in Ohio and Indisos sre not
especially eigniOctnt, it is noticeable
that tbellepuUicsnsbsre made gaios,
and that the rote of the National par
ty has fallen off in its stronghold,
Toledo. In Indiana, however, the
Nationals barre shown an Increase of
strenjrtb.
A model Democratic reformer hss
turned up in the Ohio Legislature.
A blatant member of that party nam
ed O'Connor has been identified as a
deserter from the Union Army and a
bounty jumper, besides from informa

Michigan Penitentiary it appears be
served a time in that institution for
bigbm ay robbery.
It was a nip and tuck wrestle be-twt-en
Djorkx-per I'lk and the Dem

tbe adjournment of tbe Maryland
legislature succeeded in bull-dozing
that body into passing Lis resolution
authorising the Attorney General of
that State to commence legal pro
ceedings to test tbe right of Mr.
Hayes to the Presidency, has ever
since been dodging about Washington
trying to get Lis party friends in Con
gress to take some action in tbe mat
ter, and vowing that be will have tbe
President out of tbe White House
within sixty days. Blair is generally
looked upon as a pestilent blather
skite, but there are enough Democrat
ic malignant in Congress to encour
age his assault upon the President,
whenever there is tbe slightest pos
sibility of success. At present the
Senate bar the way, but when a
Democratic Senate comes in next
year, if that party can contrive to se
cure the House also, we axe likely to
Lear more of this attempt at revolu
tion. The fear that Tilden may
thereby be galvanized into a candi

restraint on those Southern Demo

TntRE was a meeting in Washing -
too cn Thursday last.' of the members
J '
of the Republican National Commit-
tee, and the old CoDgrcwsional Com-
mittee for the purpose of hating a
free talk about the present condition
of the Republican party and its pros
pects, and especially to take some ac
tion looking to the prosecution of the
political campaign during the coming
Fall. Several of those present criti
cised the policy of the President very
severely, denounced his action in re
gard to the South, his management
of the Civil Service, and his failure
to recognize the Republicans who
had carried the hardens of the party
upon their shoulders. The only thiog
accomplished was a vote to afk the
Republicans in Congrefs to reorgan
ize the Congressional Committee and
to begin tte work of the Fall cam
paign. O Wednesday last, the Hime at
Ilarrisburg passed a bill, 105 yea?,
to 45 nays, reducing the number of
its officers aod employees about
twenty-five per cent., and also reduc
ing the compensation of those retain
ed ab Hit the same am uot. leaving
however, the salary of members tbe

, Economy is a shining virtue, these
burd timer-, tod to be virtuous is to

tail economy and meanness, that the
people will not see where tbe one
ends, and tbe other brgins. Why
should the clerk', and the poor devils
of messengers, pasters and folders Ac,
be cut down in wages, and your own

ibis kind of cheese paring, cutting
down the pay of the army and navy,

The Republican prty is the sole
hope of the cjuntry against tbe grasp-
less Northern repudiation. It is
the only bulwark against the danger
ous alliance of a Solid Sjuth with
the demagogism of the North. Tbe
Nation is confronted to-day not on
ly with enormous demands opon its
Treasury, but with wili and lawless
movements which threaten the foun
dations of public honor and security.
There are signs and portents in '.be
political sky which fill all thoughtful
men. with deep concern, if OJt with
grave alarm. Tbe Republican party
is the one conservative force which
standi as a barrier and protection
against there dangers. It never had
a more vital duty than that which
presses upon it now, aud its true pol
icy is to proclaim the lofty cause
wbicb calls all true men to its sup
port, aud say no more than i neces
sary of the differences which embar
rass it.

Nobody, we presume, entertains a
donbl that whatever requirements
were made by tbe South would be
complied wiib at once, for now, as in
ante bellutn days, the Southern Dem
ocrats are absolute masters in tneir
party, and permit no revolt from
ibeir conclusions to pass uurebuked
sad uupuuished. Not oMy tbe f 162,
000,100 demanded for Southern im
provements would be insisted npjn,
but buud.'tds of millions more. Dem
ocratic newspapers at the Sjuth do
not hesitate to say even now that
tbeir sectian is entitled to all it can
get out of the National Treasury, by
way of reimbursement tor tbe losses
it sustained during tbe civil war. It
behooves the people of tbe North to
take warning in time. Once turn
the legislative and executive divis
ions of tbe Federal Government over
to tbe Democracy, and there will be
no remedy available. Tbe North
niut-t then foot the bills of the South
on all sorts cf accounts, privat? as

Lot isVille, K v , April 10. Tbe
tragedv committed six miles back
of Louitviile, in Wet Woods, on
Monday, a short time before day

on Kentucky's calendar of dark and

but could liud noue. Subsequently
these two men were identilied as
Charles Cook and William Rrackett
by tbe Marlows io open court.
Cook had been in custodv before
ibis arrest lor arson sod murder, the
supposition being that iu the former
caae be bad burned a negro iamiiy
who resided in a rope walk near tbe

acquittal, but wbiie Charles Cook

wife recovered aod Cook is in tbe
peniteniiary. Charles Cook and
lirackett were convicted several
weeks ago for highway robbery, aod
sentenced to three years apiece.
Tbey were to have been tried for
xobbiog tbe Marlows yesterday.
The old couple were afraid tbeir
lives would be taken, and lived in
constant dread of assassination at
the hands of Cook's and Rrackett's
tricuds. Sunday their son-in-la-v left
them, and tbey could God no one to

Wextebxport, Md, March SO
One of tbe most daring burglaries
ever committed in this county took
place at an early hour this morning.
resulting in a loss of mere than $ 40,
000 to the firm of J. S. Jamison &
Co., merchants. Tbe business house
of this Grm is situated on tbe Main
street, in close proximity to the coun
ty bridge, over the Potomac river,
leading- to Piedmont. W. Va. This

wareroom. On one side cf tbe build
ing is an alley, and on tbe other aide
is the Allegheny Hotel, kept by John
Navin, a constable.
About two o'clock this morning
Constable Navin was aroused from
his sleep by a noi.se and a shock, ana
goiog to the window looked out on
tbe street. In front of the window
were two men, one of whom pointed
a pistol at his bead and threatened
to shoot bim if be did uot take bis
bead in. Tbe Countable withdrew,
and made no further appearance, al
though he afterwards saw two oth
er rueu jjia them in front of tbe
bouse. Shortly ufier daylight this
meming Mr. Kalbaugb, tbe manager
of tbe store, went to tbe store aud
found that a burglary had been com.
milted. Tbe burglars bad forced tbe
padkek f.s'.eoings from tbe front
door, and ufier entering proceeded to
operate on the safe, an old fire-proof
Tbty forced powder into the joint
ui a; tbe lock, aud blew the door
wide open witb such great force that
it flew back against tbe wall with
considerable power, ond besides tore
ibe door alinos: to pieces. Tbe in
ner iron box was crushed to pieces
with a hammer.
As a reward for tbeir lator the
burglars secured $35,000 in register
ed I'uitcd States bonds, $2 500 in
cash and probably $10,000 or $12,
000 worth of valuable papers. Tbe
books were not disturbed. luamuch
as the bonds are registered, they
cannot be negotiated by the robbers.
For several days past three susp:
cious looking men hare been seen
about towu, and on yesterday they
wero in the store. Afterwards tbey
were known to have bought a pow
der Dark at Fredlock's and some
pow der at E Fe Wen's, in Piedmont
It is supposed these were three of

Rattle Creek, Micb., April 3
Tbe startling information reached

ble calamity which has befallen an
entire family, residing ia the town
ship of Charleston, about seven miles
west of this city, near Augusta, a
farmer named Henry Crouch, bis
wife, and two children having been
drowned together in a small sheet of
water known as Wakefield's pond
Tbe family were first niUeed ibis

When last seen they were ia a boat

Lonioo.n, April 3 The following
further details of tbe assassination
of the Erl of Lsitriro, bis clerk and
driver, have been telegrsohed from
Dublin:
t The Earl of Lei trim left his resi
dence at Milford shortly before 8 o'
clock yesterday morning, accompa
nied by bis elerk, aod was driviog
on an outside car to Derry to meet
his solicitor. He always carried
arms. It is supposed that the assas
sins concealed themselves behind a
low embankment between the road
and plantation, and Laving first shot
tbe Earl tbey then shot the clerk and
driver, so th it there might- be no
witnesses. His Lordship's valet
was driviog about a mile behind, and
on coming up found bis master and
clerk lying dead in the road. Life
waa still in tbe driver. The assas
sins meanwhile escaped in a boat
across Muiroy Bsy.
Tbe valet drove back to Milford,
aud alarmed tbe police, who, com
ing to tbe place, found tbe driver
still alive, but unconscious. He died
shortly afterwards. There is no
doubt that the murder was agrarian.
Tbe relations between tbe Earl if
Leiirim antl his tenants were un
frieudly. His Lordship was kind
and liberal to tbe poor, but was very
particular and exacting in bis deal
ings with bis tenantry, visiting witb
nusparing severity the slightest in
fraction of the rules of his estate
Tbe R:ccn Society have a strong
hold upon the county, owing io a
great measure lo his harshness. He
bad an iron will, which disregarded
alike aopeals or menaces, and bo p s
sealed exiraordinarv courage and
perseverance in the pursuit of hu
purposes.
Tbe Times in an editorial on the
assassination say:
It is no exaggeraiion to say that
tne news of the murder of ibe Earl
of Leiirim which caused profound
sensation in the Hume of Commons
yesterday wben confirmed by the
Irish Secretary, hai struck ibis coun
try ffilh as much pain and amaze
ment as an unprovoked declaration
of war.
It is now proposed by ibe Demo
cratic majority n Congress to unsea.
the three colored members from South
Carolina, Rainey, Cain and Smalls,
the only colored men in the House.
Cain's seal is now undergoing con
test by an Irishman by tbe name of
O'Connor, who, in his argument to
the committee, lays down the good
old Democratic doctrine that "every
virtuous citizen cf tbe Republic
echoes back tbe indignant denuncia
tion" that Cain, the colored member
whose featliC is after, "is allowed to
ascend the steps or profane with bis
tread the pavements of the Capitol."
Tbe nominal ground on which tbe
seats of these coloreu Congressmen
are contested is that tbe oroclama
tion of General Grant disbaadiog tbe
ride clubs of South Carolina so fright
ened the timid and gentle Democrats
of that clime that tboy were afruid
entirely to show themselves or cast
tbeir votes. Well, on ih- whole, we
