Every one will be gW to know that the Mrs. Sartori whose death waa telegraphed from London last week, was Dot Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartori. bat ber mother-in-law, who died a few tiara since. The Democracy of Cambria coon ty appear to bare a eerious time in nominating a ticket. They bare bad two conrentionB, both of which, in point of harmony, resembled the fa moos fight of the Kilkenny cats. At toe late convention, held on Monday,, they seemed to have bad better lack than at the first one ; at that time they were unable to nominate one candidate for sheriff, on Monday they succeeded in patting two candidates in the field. General Ewikg the Democratic candidate for governor of Ohio, went up among the iron mills, the other day, to tell the idle workmen bow much the Republican pary bad op pressed and wronged them. He found all the mills running day and night ; every man at work at good wages, and not a single one of them with spare time enough to listen to bis speech. The General was disgusted at the prosperity apparent on all bands and denounced it as a Republican trick, to deceive the people and defeat his election. i The War department has selected the military barracks at Carlisle u this State, as the place to try a sys tem fot the civilization ol fcthe In dians. The barracks are large, hand some and convenient buildings, with fine surroundings, and it is proposed to bring there a number of young In dian boys and girls. The girls will be taught, not only the rudiments of education, but bow to cook and sew, and bow to be neat and tidy in their persons and apparel, while the boys will be instructed bow 'to read and write, and to maintain themselves by manual labor as farmers and me chanics. When graduated they will be ready to carry civil ization back into the wilderness, and it is hoped that it will be found cheaper to make good Indians than to kill bad ones. The experiment will attract attention throughout the world. It is boasted by Bourbon Demo crats that the principles of their par ty are immutable the same every where. It is becoming painfully evi dent that the morality of the party is also of the same stripe throughout the land. Thus in the Louisiana in vestigation it was made as clear as noonday, that, in the South, perjury and bribery are esteemed Democratic virtues, and now, before Senator Wal lace's committee investigating late elections in Rhode Island, comes a prominent Democrat and swears that be is in the babit of buying votes and be has no doubt the Republicans do likewise. Bat as he could not name the Republicans, he only proved that the 6am ideas of morality pervade the Democracy in Louisiana and Rhode Island. Wh it was shown that the Re publican party in the South was sup pressed by armed bandits, and that the numerous Democratic Congress men now holding seats secured them through fraud, and the shot gun, it was retorted by the leaders of that party in Congress, that it was no more than the intimidation of voters practiced by the large manufacturers in the New England States, and to prove it, a committee with Senator Wallace of this State at its bead, has been raking those States in search of endorsers of the "bayonet rule.' It is needless to say that the search has been a failure, bat Democratic mor ality, which holds every kind of in timidation to be right, when used to elect a Democratic ticket, and wrong on the other aide, is made brilliantly conspicuous. Will it not be the duty of Con gress when it again assembles to in quire whether Mississippi ha a re publican form of government f Sec tion IV, Article IV, of the Constitu tion provides that: "The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a republican form of government." Is the shot gun a republican form of goverament 7 Is the citizen who is deliberately murdered for offering himself as a candidate living under a republican form of government? TLeee are questions which will nat urally suggest themselves to our Democratic brethren, who claim to be the sole guardians of the Consti tution. Who will rise in his plsce in the next Congress and make the in quiry T Oh, for a day, or for an hour of brave old Thad. Stevens ! Having driven Dixon out of the field as an indepentent candidate, and then murdered him in cold blood, the chivalrous Democracy of Missis sippi are no asserting that their vic tim was a desperate character, who could no longer be tolerated in the community. It is slightly singular, that as long as be voted with the party be was petted, glorified as a leader, "the bravest of the brave," and presented with a service of sil ver in commendation of bis success, and that bia desperate character was not discovered until after be became an independent candidate against the regular nominee. If be as a crimi nal why did they not arrest him f What a lovely state of society, where men go gunning for crimi nals and shoot them down on sight without the formality of ar. arrest or trial!! The independents of Yazoo coun ty, Mississippi, fully understand that if 'they eutimit to being ball-dozed, the ; will soon be reduced ti the same condition of serfdom in which the negroes are now held. The as sassination of Dixoo, has, instead of intimidating them, apparently only nerved them to stand op for their rights. Accordingly on Wednesday last, they met in convention, and placed a full ticket in the field in op position to the regular Democrats, and resolved to support it all haz ards. If they do not rally all the decent element in the community to their support and beat the murderers' ticket, then we will conclude that all manhood has fled the South. John Rcssel Youno, the corres pondent of the New York Herald, who is traveling with General Grant, writes that paper that the Chinese Viceroy at Pekio, having expressed his pleasure over the rumor that General Grant would be again nomi nated for President, the General said, in reply : "Your excellency is very kind ; but there could be no wish more distasteful to me than what you express. I have held the office of President as long as it has ever been held by any man. There are others who have risen to a great distinction at home, and who have earned the honor, who are worthy, and to them it belongs, not to me. I have no claims to the office. It is a place dis tasteful to me a place of hardship and responsibilities. When I was a younger man, these hardships were severe, and never agreeable. They would be worse now." When the negro x -us from the South began, we were assured by the people of that section, that it was only the lazy, lame and worthless that were going to Kansas. Soon came rumors that armed men were driving the proposed emigrants back into the country from the steamboat landings where they had assembled in search of transportation. Next steamboats were seized and their owners prosecuted for carrying too many emigrants at a time. Then came the allegation that the South was glad to see the colored men go, so as to thin them out Bat now we have on the way an excursion of sev eral hundred negroes to Kansas, ac companied by a committee of plant ers, to prove to prove to the poor colored dupes that they cannot better their condition by going to Kansas. Does the South want to get rid of its "soft-top nigger" or not 7 Another straw: The Youngstown (Ohio) Evening Netct, hitherto a Democratic paper, has come out squarely for the Republican ticket. The Republicans of Bedford met in county convention, last week, and nominated R. L. Replogle, for Direc tor of the Poor, and T. W. McCreary, for Jury Commissioner. , The first of the fall elections will be in California, where on September third, State and Judicial officers, four members of Conirress and a full Legislature will be chosen. Congressman De La Matte, in a speech in Maine, recently, declared that education injured the colored people at the South more than it benefited them. Mr. De La Matyr does not want to have the colored voters spoiled. He wants to make Greenbackers out of them. When the negro exodus began, we were assured that the deluded people would quickly return to whence they came, as soon as they discovered that the State of Kansas did not endow settlers with forty acres of land and a mule apiece. Bat the prophecy has been falsified. Governor St John says that no instance of a colored immigrant returning to the South af ter reaching Kansas hsa come under his notice, and he adds that the new comers are decent, hardworking peo ple, and not the shiftless loafers they had been painted. Another southern falsehood nailed. Important to voters: The next election in Pennsylvania will be held on Tuesday, the 4th of November. Voters must be assessed two months preceding the election, that is, on or before Thursday, September 4. Voters must have paid a State or county tax one mouth preceding the election, that is, on or before Satur day, October 4. Members of Republican committees should see to it that every voter of our party bas complied with the law. Failure to pay tax in season de prives tne voter of the privilege of suffrage. An elector can swear in his vote, though be be not assessed, but the neglect may cause bim'mocb trouble. The Democratic quarrel in Missis sippi bas ended in a tragedy. Dixon has paid for his crime of independ ence with bis life, and the party is solid again. Only a few days ago one of the organs of the bulldozer said : "Let our battle cry be death to the "traitors and the enemies of our peo "ple. Dixon, Yasser, and their nor "rid crew of demagogues are more "dangerous enemies to the liberties "of our people than the worst leaders "that ever marshalled the hosts of "Radicalism in our midst" This command bas been obeyed with startling promptness, so far as Dixon is concernel. Let it be re membered that he was a Confederate soldier, a Democrat and an ex-bulldozer himself. He bas fallen by the same weapon which be formerly used against Republicans, and can have no claim on Northern sympathy like that of the murdered Cbisholm. It is useless to deny that his death is dne solely to bis political course. Had he consented to be bulldozed into withdrawing from the field he would be alive to-day. His fate emphasizes more strongly than ever the fact that the South is ruled by a shotgun des potism which meets all opposition with death. It remains to be seen what tort of justice is meted out to his murderer. H. Y. Tribune. ' IfMk ail r The following persons represent the State of Mississippi in Cougress: Senators L. Q. C. Lamar.

Yes terday at Yazoo City a difficulty oc curred between James Barksdale, the Democratic candidate for Chance ry Clerk, and Henry M. Dixon, re sulting in toe death or tne latter. Dixon, while passiog down the west side of the street, was hailed by Barksdale from the east side, who at the same time advanced to the middle of the street, armed with a double-barreled shot gun. Dixon halted and immediately placed his hand on a pistol, drawing it Barks dale raising the gun to bis shoulder and Dixon seeing tbis, moved towards a stairwav, when Barksdale fired, four buckshot taking effect in Dixon's back. Dixon then fired several times at Barksdale without effect Barks dale fired a second shot, but missed his victim. Dixon bled internally and died at 4:30 P. M. A preliminary trial will take place to-morrow. The d.mculty is represented as of a per sonal nature by Barksdale's friends. The Latest AuMitaMUa t Rerare Dentaeratle Daaataatlaa. Washington, August, 21. Con firmation of the report of the assas sination of Capt II. M. Dixon, at 1 azoo City, has been received by his brother, IJ. r. Dixon, a clerk in toe Treasury Department The mother of the murdered man, who also re sides in this city, has recently writ ten him a letter to keep oot of poli tics, as it cly involved him in con stant trouble, and to be content with his business and lands. HISTORT Or THE VICTIM. Captain Dixon was a boy of four teen when the war broke out and was a student at Georgetown Col lege. He was induced to run away and join the Southern army, but was captured after tour months' absence and remained neutral during the re mainder of the war. He married, at the age of seventeen, the daugh ter of a very wealthy Mississippi planter, who died not long after this event, leaving bis large plantation in the Yazoo country to Mrs. Dixon. Young Dixon went there to live, and has been a resident of Mississip pi for thirteen years. He kept away from politics until 1872, when he organized the rifle club and was made captain of the bull-dozers. His experience among the class com posing the club seems to have dis trusted bim with the unfairness of their intention, and in 1874 he left the Democratic party, sick of bull-doz Ing and its results. His chief ambi tion then seemed to be to repair the wrong he had brought upon a helpless class of people, and he be came the advocate of fair play in, po litical life, trying to sustain the rights of the colored people. When be be came an independent candidate for Sheriff it was evident his popularity would secure his election, and hence the threats that if he did not with draw be would be banged. Follow ing the advice of his mother he withdrew, for the alarming reports kept her in constant suspense. Last week he wrote to his mother that af ter long consideration and consulta tion with his friends he bad resolved to withdraw the card in which he de clared be would not be a candidate, and should try to protect himself. His recandidature was at once un derstood by his friends in Washington that be was not to be put down by the lawless acts of a mob. He was known to be fearless, and as bis friends had promised him protection from all barm, there was an unusual interest taken in the bold and manly step of Captain Dixon by the Presi dent and members of the cabinet THE FEELING OCCASIONED. The Secretary of the Navy when informed of Captain Dixon's fate said he bad carefully noted the course of tbis brave man, and be bad thought it indicated a manly resolve to break down the attitude of a "sol id South." "Assassination, did you say f Then there is no hope save in a solid North, and such acts will con. solidate the North, more effectively than all the speeches of Congression al orators. I wonder whether Gen eral Woodford will dare carry his in tention of escorting Mrr. Cbisholm to Mississippi into effect If they have savages down there who do not respect the resident property owners, what show has a Northern man, a Republican and Government officials, for Mali's when visiting sach a local ity ? There is a brace of good pis tols," pointing to a neatly wrapped package close at hand, which I nave just received. I would be glad if General Woodford would accept the loan of them. They might be of service in such a country aa Miseuip pi, and are of little use in this locali ty. It is jut such deeds as these that make the people of the North distrust the civilization of the South." Senator Brace says with mocb feeling that his views need not be sought The proscription of his race tells mors than any words be can utter. If the life ot a wealthy, influential and respected white man is worth less than that of a dog, what can be say that would still the angry feelings of a mob f Instead ot calling upon him to resign for not de nouncing the conduct of the ball-dozers, might it not come to pass, and perhaps in a verv short time, thai the Yazoo mob would threaten bis life if be did not vacate bis seat in the Sen ate r That, be thinks, is the tendency of political reutiment in Mississippi, The i a" aa Miajfttvatt' This system has m plan for dealing with every man wtj tries to organ ise an opposition to Democratic su premacy U any dL rict, count? or state, rarsonal al jt is first heapr ed upon hint, and slanderous stories are circulated to destroy bis good name.

If be stays at home at nights, and goes well-armed daring the day, and is known to be 'prompt in defending himself, he will probably escape bod ily harm ; but be will soon be wait ed upon by a large number of the "best men f the county," each fur nished with a persuasive argument carried in the hip pocket, and he will find it prudent te make up bis mind, as Dixon did, to withdraw from the canvass for the sake of peace and harmony. He knows that if he should refuse, his life would not be worth a farthing. He would be far safer among the Sioux or the Bashi Bazouks than among his own neigh bors and relatives. This is the sys tem which keeps the South solid, and will make it a compact force in the Presidential election next year. Tribune. . Clraat la Jaeaa. Mail advices from Japan show that Gen. Grant and bis party were the recipients of a most cordial welcome there, both from the native and for eign population. Addresses were presented him at Nagasaki, Tokio, Yokohama and other places which he visited. The streets were illu minated at nigh;, and every atten tion was paid by all classes to the distinguished visitor. The almost uninterrupted rain was the only drawback o the pleasure of the vis it The Fourth of July was celebra ted by the party at Seiyoken Restau rant, in TJveno Park, Tokio, several distinguished Japanese being present as well as a lsrge concourse of Amer ican cit:z-is. Dr. McCartie intro duced Getiral Grant, and Minister Bingham addressed him in behalf of the American residents of Japan. General Grant's reply is thus report ed in the Japan Daily Herald s mail summary: . , . , ne said that any praise . of toe country of the United States he could honestly accept, because it was a great country, but it was quite another thing with respect to the praise lavished on himself personal ly. It had been his good fortune to be in a petition which of necessity brought his name prominent before the eyes of the' world, while a great struggle, in which not only the peo ple of the United States, but the whole world was interested, was be ing fought, and with the successful issue of tuat struggle his name had been linktd. But there were thous ands of hU countymen who, it they happened to be in the same position, would have accomplished as moch as he did, nay perhaps more. In fact, the achievements were no single man's ; they were the achievements of the million noble spirits, who stood by each other, each of them doin? his doty bravely and honestly. He was much gratified to meet so many of his countrymen, . and he thanked tbem for tbeir kind welcome. He hoped that they ,would all, at some futu. d day, return to their coun try, and he should be glad to . meet them there on some future Fourth of July. The General's reply, which was delivered in a firm, clear voice, was enthusiastically cheered. To the the tosst "The Day we Cel ebrate" General Van Buren respond ed : "I firmly believe that I should pay a higher compliment to this old time-honored toast by simply saying 'God bess tbe day and the man' than by making any extended remarks. Were not tbe f ourth of July poeess ed of a c ustitution like that of the United S ates, it would have been taken to death long ago laughter, and I am very certain that oar illas. tious guest has found on his journey ing from the setting to ths rising sun that the gift of talking is not confin ed to the universal Yankee nation. Lond laughter. And seeing him here, after he has what he has gone through, in the enjoyment of such ro bust health, convinces me that his constitution is also one of the sound est, and that in this respect be is to be ranked with the Constitution of the United States and the Fourth of July. Great laughter and . ap plause. But as it would be consid ed most unorthodox thus to psss ov er the tosst, I beg yonr indulgence for a moment Our national holiday in this tar-off portion of the world appeals with peculiar force to the pa triotic heart of every true American. Outside tho whirl of politics, and re moved to a point where national char acteristics seem more clear to us, we hail with heartfelt enthusiasm every allasion to our nation's birth and the progress. This day is a bond of anion to us all over the globe. So far away from our native land, we think with pride of our country's great ex tent, of her giant strides in popula tion, wea!.h and power, of the free dom we erjoy, freedom won in fire and blood, and we love to think that wherever ve may flag that is, 'hard ly ever.' Great laughter. .In con clusion, I propose tbe health of the American people!

The murder of Dixqa jn Mississip pi Las attracted public atte'oa to a bgree only equaled by the kilTig of judge Ohisholm acJ his dangler by gang of ruCUna in the anas State more than two years ajjo. Both crimes were ei'mmi t"i by men of the same stamp ou..uilr repre sentatives of the beet local society; really a lawless set of Thugs whose intolemion ot any opposition to them in politics does not stop short . I ,,. . , . a . .. ui wm spitting oi uiooa it is all very well for tbem now to urge that Dixon was a man . of notorious bad character ; that he had taken bnman life by violence, and bis continued existence was a danger to tbe peace and good order of the community. They never made these startliog dis coveries until Dixon became a leader . - .... oi an lnaepenaent political move ment, and as a candidate for office solicited negro votes. That was the offence for which be was foully s sassioated by Barksdale upon a pub lic inorougntare in Yazoo City. General Singleton did not consider Dixon such a bold, bad man when, three years ago, he thanked Dixon for the aid that bad been rendered by mm in carrying the district for tbe Democratic party, whose nomi nee for Congress Singleton was. Tbe very men who compassed the death of Dixon aid are now showing bim np as a phenomenon of infamy in 1875 presented bim with a set of silver plate, on which was -inscribed : "To the bravest of the. brave," as a re ward for his service in redeeming Mississippi from the role of white Radicals and negroes. Can any one doubt tnat if he bad not broken away irom tne party bis lire would never have been jeopardized Z -As it was he might have been safe if be bad not attempted to resurrect the independ ent movement after the mob had con pelled him to withdraw from it at tbe mozzle of tbe shot gun. A letter from his wife, dated on July 29th, tells the whole story. She says: "But my beavest-trouble, to which tbe burial of all my little ones would be nothing, is about Henry. An armed mob of 500 men from all parts ot the county came after him Friday last, and at first ordered him to leave tbe country, never to re turn. He told tbera he was as good a citizen as any of tbem, and would not leave. Tbey then started into our house, trampling over me and my little baby, which we supposed was dying. VVnen Drs. Moore, Gad berry, Meyers, Hudson and Kellev proposed to tbe mob to spare bim if be would withdraw from the canvass, some said, 'No, no; rope him!" Others yelled, 'Ron him out of the country.' A great many speeches were made to tbe mob by the most influential c'tizens who were opposed to Henry, and they finally agreed to spare his life if be would withdraw, which be bad to do or be murdered. Now, you can understand his feelings under the circumstances. To be compelled to knuckle down to a vile mob, headed by men of wealth, posi tion and influence, who onght to be tbe best friends to us, just because Henry would run independent of the convention. No one knows tbe end of this. Henry's friends are influen tial and wish to raise an indignation meeting and demand bis rights, but lam unwilling that he should risk bis life in any such wsy. We would leave tbe State this 'minute if we could possibly get away,"- This matter should not be treated ordiscaseed merely for-what partisan advantages may be derived from it The importance which it posesses far transcends any such considerations. Here we have a state in the Union wherein party despotism is so fierce and reckless that it U. worth a man's life to antagonize the dominate fac tion even in a- campaign for purely local office. "Vote with ne, leave tbe neighborhood or order yoor cof fin," is the virtual demand of the po litical rulers, and we have seen by the most practical proof that it can be terribly enforced. No intelligent man can venture to say that in a community so regulated there is such a thing as reign of the law or the protection of individual rights. It lives solely under tbe despotism of tbe mob ; freedom is a farce, and whatever privileges are guaranteed to citizens are subject at any moment to be taken awsy by the mob. Noth ing could prove tbe desire of the ma jority to correct these shocking evils except the trial, conviction and pun ishment of Barksdale. In cold blood he committed a premeditated murder. He was "searching" for his man, and fired upon him at sight Moreover, he was inspired to the deed by the very language of the resolutions passed by the meeting of the Yasoo City people, who applauded the form er bull-dozing of Dixon, and as mnch as said that to extinguish him would be an act deserving of popular thanks. We wonder what Senator Lamar, Governor Stone and the judges who sit upon the bench in Mississippi think of a community in which it is possible for a crime of this kind to be done and t guilty man- let go uopuaithsd.

After the war closed Congress ap propriate! money and authorized the War Departntont to eause headstones to ba erected over ererv dead soldier that fell in the war uf tne rebellion. In tbe South this na beau done by tbe Quartermaster's department Be sides, the bodies have been gathered together from - the different battle fields and hospitals at central points through Oat the country and ceme teries established under the con trol of tbe National Government, with a superintendent selected from the disabled veterans at a s.lary of from $50 to $75 a month according to the size and grade of cemetery. There are some fifty of these Nation al cemeteries established. They are laid out . nicely and enclosed with strong fences and are inspected from time to time bj an United States army officer who sees that those ia charge keep everything in a neat and orderly condition. At ;the entrance ot each cemetery bas been erected a comfortable konae for tbe superin tendent and family who are required to be always on hand to welcome visitors who may be searching for missing friends. Each superintend ent bas a book in which is kept tbe name, rank, company and regiment of each soldier buried there as far as known. No body is allowed to be removed without the authority of tbe Secretary of War, which can be bad by tbe proper persons entitled to re ceive the bodies. The Government has made no appropriation which au thorizes the Quartermaster depart ment to remove bodies at the expeose of the United States for friends, but extends every courtesy in its power to those who desire to do so. A great many of the remains have been removed but thousands remain there aleeping under tbe Ameri can flag lor which tbey sacrificed their lives that tie Union might lire. Tbe same old starry flag is hoisted over them at reveille (sunrise) each day and lowered at sunset. All the graves are maiked with nice tomb stones. Those that are known have their names inscribed on the marble slabs with their rank, company and regiment, while the others have the solitary line, "Unknown." The grass is cut regularly around the graves by lawn mowers, the grounds kept in neat condition, and each year loving comrades and friends meet and strew flowers over tbe known and unknown alike. Com rades keep this custom op, don't let it die out but make it more beautiful and impressive each succeeding year.

The Government is doing its dnty well towards tbe fallen soldier. Rolls of Honor are now befng mad in Washington, giving the name, loca tion and burial place of each and ev ery known soldier buried in the Na tional cemeteries in the South. By consulting tbis roll the whereabouts of a great many missing comrades can probably be found. This roll will be examibed by the undersigned and full particulars given ot tbe whereabouts of every Somerset coun ty boy buried in these cemeteries in letters from time to time ia tbe- Her ald. . There was always in my regiment, 54th, when in the field, a secret un derstanding amongst us that the dead bodies of the fallen should be taken borne and buried by tho survivors. Chip in, boys, and fulfil this under- standing. See that by next Decora tion day every body that can be found of our comrades is interred at home amongst their friend. These poor fellows would have, done tbe same for you. Another thing that should be done :. I want every soldier in tbe county to consider himself without delay a committee of one with fall power to act and go to the graveyard or cemeteries, sa your different loca tions and boa 5b yourself that every Union soldier buried there bas a tombstone. Congress passed a law at the in stance of the War department au thorizing the erection of marble head stones over tbe unmarked graves of Lnion soldiers interred in private and village cemeteries, and on inquiry at the Quartermaster General's office, Capt Rockwell informs me, that tbe law in regard to headstones applies to all unmarked graves of soldiers who served in the army of tbe United States during the war of the rebel lion, whether they died in the service or since their., .muster out or dis charge.' There! .Every man that ever had on the blue uniform daring the rebellion is entitled by law to this much and should have it by all means. ' Notices have been sent out to tbe different postoffices, and postmasters have been requested to send tbe names, eta, of those needing tomb stones bnt as yet only some four or five thousand applications have been received at the Quartermaster Gener al's office for headstones. It is now estimated that some 17,000 will be needed. Contracts were let out yes terday to be filled. The contractors are D. W. Whitney, of Troy, N. Y., and S. G. Bridges, of Keokuk, Iowa. The contracts provide for both fur nishing and netting the headstones. Captain Rockwell very kindly ex hibited to mo specimens of tbe marble slabs contracted, for, and I mast ssy they are neat, pretty, and endurable. For tho benefit of yonr many readers I will give them a brief description of the headstone. Tbe marble slab w two inches thick, ten inches wide, and forty-two inches long. , Tbe part of the slab which will bo shown above ground (about 15 inches) is dressed in the usual manner for fur nishing marble headstones, with tbe top slightly carved and the edges slightly rounded. On headstones for the known are to be inscribed the nnmber of the grave, the name, com pany and regiment of tbe soldier, and rank, if any, thus: 274. ' Corp. H. J. PEN ROD. Co. "B ," 5th Penn'a. Vols. On headstones for the unknown tbe inscription will be: U.S. Soldier. Tbe figures and letters are to be one inch in length and one-eighth' ia depth and may be in relief or incised at the option of the maker. It will take some time to carry out the contract as the graves to be sop plied are scattered throughout tbe country, bat mainly in the northern, middle, and eastern States. It is thought at the department .that tbe contrsetors will be able to fill all the orders in leas than two years. First come, first served, ia tbe motto. Now see to u that the required da ta is famished without delay. Some or yon active young men tan hold or this or I will have to call on tho la dies. I nominate Sheriff Kyle, Sen- ator Gron and Captain Scull aa a committee on grave stones. The mo tion is seconded and carried unani mously. Now yon have goA the of fice without electioneering. Attend to your duty, fill ap the blanks sent you to-day and forward tbem to the Quartermaster General at Washing ton. 1 don't believe there id a man, wo man or child ia the North who would not be willing to be taxed for the par pose of getting these missiog soldiers wOo are scattered at different points in the South, back to their own hum ble church yards and burial grounds. borne eold-nearted people .think a soldier should be buried where be fell Their number is few. Every person knows, were these poor fel lows, fathers, mothers, wives and or phan children able to afford it, their bones would all be brought back to their homes. General Coffrotb, oar representa tive, could not do a better act in his public career, one that would bring an airen from tbouaands of sorrow ing hearts, man to have next winter passed iu Congress, a law directing tbe W r Department to famish nice burial caskets and forward home at Government expense, such bodies as may be called tor by friends. At a Cabinet meeting, yesterday, the qaesiion as to whom arrears ot pensions, under the recent act of Congress should go, in cases where the soldier were inmates ot Soldiers' Homes, came up for discussion. Ud der the law governingjthe homes and providing tor their support the pen sion that would otherwise be paid to the inmate is retained by the Gov ernment and applied to the support of tbe institution. The managers of the institutions now claim that their fund is entitled to be credited with the arrears of pensions due to each disabled soldiers ss msy be under their charge, to which the soldiers dissent, claiming that at least a por tion accrued while tbey were not a charge to the Government, and that Congress made ample provisions for tbe homes before the passage of the arrears ot pension act, and did not, when that bill passed, contemplate any enlargement of the asylum fond by it ' No conclusion wasrsachsd in tne Cabinet beyond a decision to refer the subject to the Attorney General for his decision upon tbe legal points of tbe question. The President and Secretary M Crary are understood to incline to the opinion that the money should go to tbe individual on whose account it is granted. A communication was received at the Indian Office a few days since from the Yankton, Dakota. Territorial Agency, stating that the Indians on that reservation have cut and stacked over 3,000 tons of bay for the use of their own and agency stock during the coming winter. There are 2,000 Yankton Indians, all told, at this point, and, while tbey bare been ma king considerable efforts in agricult ure for several years, there have been no reports of any material progress heretofore, the largest amount of hay cored not exceeding 200 or 300 tons. The German Secretary of the Interi or makes them work. Tbe Board of Army Officers exam ining candidates for the vacant sec ond lieutenancies is progressing and will probably close ia a few days. From present indications, all the can didates who are now being examin ed, will pass very easily. The term of office of Governor - II. H. Wells, United States Attorney for the District, will expire on the 1st of September. Delegations are now pressing their different candidates. Pennsylvania has not yet put in an appearance tor the place. Who the President will appoint is not known, bat it is quite certain Mr. Wells will not be the person. I think the Somerset croquet club might spare a candidate. Put those balls awsy, they are for children and ladies to play with ; besides, it is in jurious to play in black mad. How in tbe world did this naisence escape an effusion from tho Poet Laureate in his ramblingsf Squire Ogle, lay aside dog and hog cases for a day or two and look np the statutes on mur der. If yon want to gain the good will of tbe hard-working and indus trious people of Somerset, and grati tude of the ladies, abate this nuisance foithwith, as it is a bold and defiant infringement ot the rights of the gen tler sex to allow poor croquet to be foully murdered in black mud and to bacco juice behind tbe Mammoth building by overgrown men. Picket. A feartal Baee. Philadelphia, Aag. 21. While) Miss Helen Leeds, of Tioga, and Mrs. Richard Harper, of Trenton, were driving in a phteton across tbe track of the Pennsylvania Railroad, on the Lamb Tavern road, yosterday, freight train appeared coming north ward at a high rate- of speed.

She was taken to a dwelliog -near by, where she soon recovered. During the rsce tbe carriage was all tbe time a bo at twenty-five feet ahead of tbe engine. rratiaa SMarteHee There arrived at th e port of New York during th atoBtk of July, 119, 16,432 passengers, 13 ,710 of wbosa were, immigrants.

With gteut alarm they roshed into the streets, many mothers in tbeir flight leaving their children behind tbem ia the sbsEing houses.
