Speech of Attorney Gcncml 1'uliner, in Jirjmhliraa Slnie Cbnroifian. The rousing majorities in Ohio and Iowa prove that this is not an "oil year" for Republicans, and point the way for a similar victory in PennF3'lvania. Any man can nominate himself fur offioo, - m VP alto I ' J, mm! 4L people generally show him, when they come to vote, what a fool he is, ifhc liasjit discovered it sooner. No greater blow could be stricken at the life of the Republican party, than to permit New York and Penn sylvania to fall into the hands of the Democracy, at the commencement of a Republican administration. A few self-styled Republican newspapers, of the sorehead variety, arc bothering themselves about the Stalwarts. Without much trouble they can ascertain these facts : Stalwarts always have the interests of the party at heart, always go to the polls, and always vote the straight ticket. Two wct-kg more remain until the election. This time should be im proved by the Republicans of this county in working for Daily, Cessna and the whole county ticket They are all entitled to the full party vote, and should get it, in spite of a few growlers, who are playing into the hands of the Democrats. Gexesal Daily Is entitled to the vote of every honest Republican, lie was nominated by a two-thirds vote in the State Convention, and '.hat nomination was ratified by a unanimous vote. A candidate thus nominated and endorsed by the State Convention will command the vote of every manly Republican who believes in fair play. Ox the first page of this paper will be found a 6hort biographic sketch of Hon. John Cessna, fur nished us by a friend in Dedford county. We in vite the attention of our readers to it Mr. Cessna is personally known to many of the voters of this county, and his public career is familiar to them. To those w ho are not so informed, the brief sketch referred to will be of interest. A Titi'E bill has been found against Charles J. Guiteau for murder; he lias lten arraigned in open court, plead " not guilty," and his trial has been deferred for a short time to give him the chance of employing counsel, if possible, and procuring the attendance of witnessed The grounds of defense will bo first, in Siinity, and eecond, that President Garfield's death was caused by mal treatment of his physicians, and not by the pistol hot Peesidext Arthur has sent quite, a large number of appointments to the Senate lor confirmation, the most notable of which are Hannibal Hamlin, as Minister to Spain, and a eon of James G. Blaine, as Assistant Secretary of State. So far, not a single removal has been made, and all the nominees were 4he selections of the late President. The little fel lows who, a brief time since, were making mouths at Vice President Arthur, and Etyling themselves Garfield Republicans,'" are quite disgruntled. When the highest, and ablest and best Democrats in the land prove their willingness to profit by assas sination, and dely the will ol the people, ii it not the height of as surance to ask Republicans to place a member of that party on. the bench, where the liberties, the for tunes and the lives of the people are to be passed upon ? There is something essentially wrong in the teachings of that party, as its members always evince a lack of high moral principle( when put to the test ' - The result of the election in Ohio proves one thing, conclusively, that money is not the chief requisite in a candidate, and we doubt not Penn sylvania will emphasize the verdict two weeks hence. Dookwalter was made the Democratic nominee in Ohio solely because of his wealth ; and so in this state, the chief merit of Noble, the Democratic candidate for State Treasurer, is the length of his purse. The "mass of the voters of the country well know that it would be an evil day when money can secure power and political control, and as they have shown Tildcn, English and Dookwalter that their votes are not for 6ale, so we doubt not, will they prove the same to Mr. Noble. Cax any thinking Republican as sign a single valid reason why he should desert the nominee of his own party and vote for William J. Daer? Is not John Cessna his equal in legal lore, general ability, tried integrity, and personal character ? Why then should Mr. Daer receive a single Republican vote ? Did Mr. Daer in ail his lifetime ever vote for a Republican candidate? Was he not always a hide-bound partisan, voting lus party ticket right or wrong ? Will he now vote for a sin gle Republican, if elected Judge? Not a bit of it! He is the Democrat ic nominee, claiming his party vote as such, and the Republican who votes for him is betraying his party, and knowing' assisting to place a bitter partisan Democrat on the bench. The Democrats of the Senate came to gnet in their attempt to 6teal the Presidency of that body, and the possible Presidency of the United States. If anything was well settled, it was the fact, determined by the election a year since, that tae people did not want Democratic rulers, and yet, unable to withstand the temptation when the opportuni ty offered, to steal the power the people would not entrust them with, the members of that party, in the highest deliberative body under the constitution, violated every senti ment of manly dignity and honesty and refused admission to three duly elected Republican Senators from New York and Rhode Island, until after they had elect ed monf .lluiir number President Having thus, through fraud, ob tained the Presidency, the Republi cans, to whose title to seats not an objection could be urged, were sworn and admitted. The Senate being then full was a tie politically, pro vided, of the two Independents, Ma hone voted Republican and Davis with the Democrats. On consultation, the Republicans, believing that with but one life be tween the Presidency of the Senate and of the country, that some Dem ocratic crank might fancy that by killing President Arthur his party would obtain control of the govern ment, determined to elect Senator Davis President Accordingly, a motion to that effect was made, and Dayard, who occupied the Etolen chair, and Davis both declining to vote, the latter had two of a majori ty, and was duly installed, to the great chagrin of the Democrats who were thus deprived of the very thing for which they had sacrificed their characters for honesty, or common decency, or fairness. Jy their action in tins matter these leaders of the Democratic par ty have given another proof to the country, that no difference how high the station, how pure the per sonal character, how loud the pro fessions of Democratic politicians. they cannot be trusted where power is to be gained or party interests advanced. From the highest to the lowest tht y will drag their personal manhood through the mire for the sake of a partisan advantage. Mr. Daer is asking the votes of the Republicans on non-partisan grounds. Of course, Mr. Daer will not dare deny that as a politician be is, and always has been, a Demo crat of the deepest dye, and we therefore presume he means that if elected, he will as a Judge be non partisan. Now. while all sensible men ad it. .i T-t t inn mai juuges suoum know no party, after they have been elected, yet history proves that they arc often influenced in their opinions and judgment by the views and sen timents of their previous lives. It was a Democratic court that decided in the Dred Scot case, that a black man had no rights which a white man was bound to respect It was a Democratic court which decided, during the war, that the draft law was unconstitutional, and that citi tens of Pennsylvania could not be marched beyond her own borders to defend the Capital of our common country, and preserve the Union. It was the Republican party of our State that turned out one of the Judges that so decided and placed a Iwcpublican in his room and stead who helped to reverse the decision so made. Of course all these Judges were non-partisan, and yet it is somewhat singular that they all de cided as J udges just what they pro leased as men.- Republican Judges in this State sustained the laws! passed to suppress the Relcllion and Republican Judges on the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States sustained the laws passed to maintain I he credit of the govern ment and fcupport the army and navy for the overthrow of the Re bellion. The history of our mother coun try, as well as of this, proves con clusively that it is always dangerous to place on the bench men who en tertain unsound political opinions. Particularly is this the case in re- goru to hnanciai niauerg, aim uu who remember the financial vagaries of the party with which Mr. Daer is so thoroughly identified; their cry against govern i-tent bonds ; their ef forts to ruinously inflate the curren- .1 - . at A A? cy ; their hostility to tne restoration of specie payments, know and feel that minds unreasoning and reak enough to be captured by such fal lacies, cannot safely bo trusted to wield the great power entrusted to a Judge. crixjxus. Mr. Wolfe is unfortunate again in making an issue of veracity be tween himself and State Treasurer Dutler. Mr. Dutlcr's word goes a great way with people who know him. If a State Treasurer of his sterling integrity can not be secured to succeed him the State will be unfor tunate. rhila. Record. The Attorney General of Pennsyl vania has brought suit in the court of Dauphin county against the Standard Oil Company for the col lection of over $3,000,000 alleged to be due from that corporation in taxes, penalties and interest The case will probably be tried in Janu ary. Witnesses will be summoned from Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York. The nitro-glvcerinc magazine be longing to the Roberts Torpedo Company, two and a lialf miles from Dradford, Pa., containing 300 pounds of nitro-glycerine, blew up on Thursday evening. It is believed the explosion was caused by an at tempt of burglars to rob the safe, and there is evidence that two men were blown to atoms. For several rods around the ground was plowed up as if by an earthquake, and huge trees were blasted and scattered about Some fragments of human flesh and clothing were found. The statement is boldiy made that among the mummies recently discovered at Thebes i3 that of the identical "Pharaoh's daughter1 who rescued the infant Moses from his dangerous hiding place in the bulrushes. The body is that of a lady of rare beauty, and is so per fectly preserved by the embalmers' art that it appears as if only recent ly laid away. The coffin is decorated with mosaic work of cost ly stones, 6ome of which have been chipped oil by curiosity seekers, Ramescs the Second, the father of this lady, is said to have had many wives, and to have been the father of more than 150 children. It is supposed that many of his other sons and daughters are similarly em balmed, and that their mummified bodies will be. found among the treasures of this description which are now being brought to light a sLAxnnnEnAXDTnAnrcEn. The Democratic papers have been patting Wolfe on the back, publish inn hU speeches, and saying al kinds of nice things of him, because it was supposed almost every one of the few dozen votes he will get off Daily ; but in his Titusville speech he refers to the onlv State Treasurer the Democrats have had for many years in a way that makes their hair stand, and the Democratic papers don't like it This is what the Har- risburc Patriot says : Mr. Wolfe charges that during the administration of Col. Noyes the Governor, Secretary of the Common wealth, and Cashier of the Treasury used in the public funds for pur poses of speculation, in which they lost a large amount which was euS sequently made good. He makes his statements with the minuteness of detail and confidence of one who is, or ought to be, familiar with all that he asserts; for Mr. Wolfe cer tainly does not wish to appear be fore the people of Pennsylvania as a slanderer and a traducer of these highest officials. In the course of his speech Mr. Wolfe said : "Col. Noyes soon died it is supposed worried to desth over the irregulari- i ty and his lossses." Now, so far as the name of Col. Noyes is' involved, it is but just to him and to the party that elected him to say that he had no "losses" and not the slightest connection with any speculation with the funds of the Treasury. If there were any such speculations they were without his knowledge or consent When he left the Treasury he turned over a clear balance 6heet to his successor, and neither his sureties nor his es tate has been called upon to pay a dollar to make up any deficit in his accounts. So much for the Democratic side of the question. And here one of the "official persons" who is living does answer for himseL It is Gov. Hoyt, as foltows : 11 VRRISBIDH, Oct. It, 1HS1. My attention i.as been called to remarks made by Charles S. Wolfe at Titusville. In my own behalf and their relation to mvself I desire to say that they are substantially and circumstantiallv tul.se. I have never been concerned, alone or in connection with others, in any scheme or speculation, as he charges. I have never owned or con trolled, alone, or with others, a barrel of crude etroleum or a certificate representing sucn. i nave never oaa occasion to declare myself for or against a tax cither on derricks or crude oil. 1 have never had a transac tion in Mocks or any manner of business with Col. M. b. Quay, either in partnership or in any other form or relation. I have havt never had a financial or other business transaction with Hon. J. I). Cameron or Henry W . Oliver, Jr.. nor have either ad vanced one dollar to me, or on mv account, or in ray behalf. I have never hid the use, control, or possession of one dollar belong ing to the State Treasury, nor has there ever own a uciiat oi any kind in the State Treasury, growing out of transaction in which I have ever been concerned.

After the publication of Wolfe's speech a reporter of the Harrisburg Tekgrravh called upon Col. Butler, j the State Treasurer, when the fol lowing conversation ensued : ' Have you read Wolfe's speech, Colonel," asked the reporter. "Only partially," wus the replv. ReiH.rler "The Tdrtrronh would be glad to publish anything you de sire to say m regaru to these charges." ' Treasurer Duller I do not de sire to ta f anything over my own signature, but I authorize you to say that if Mr. Wolfe intends to say that anything is wrong in the Treas ury, or that anything is being held back from publication for the pur pose of deceiving the public, he grossly slanders this department Last winter when ho ottered a reso- ution in the Houso touching the publication ot Treasury statements and coupled therewith certain in nuendoes, I courted investigation. I earnestly desired it, because I knew everything in this department was correct, that every dollar due the State was in bank ready for use at any moment, and that the Treas ury's condition was such that a thorough investigation could not fail to rcmovo ,the suspicions engen dered by untruthful statements. Reporter as all the money in the Treasury that the books showed ought to be there, when you took charge." Treasurer Dutler "Every dollar, every cent 1 he money was turned over" to me not the evidence of money." Reporter V hat about the publi cation of the Treasury statements." Treasurer Dutler "lou remem ber that last winter Mr. Wolfe offer ed a resolution in the House asking me why such statements had not been published. My reply was that the Attorney General and private counsel had advised me that it was not the duty of the State Treasurer to order the publication ; that it was the Treasurer's duty to make an exhibit of the condition of the Trflnsnrv on the first dav of everv month under oath and forward such exhibit to the Auditor General. This I have done and any citizen can see my mothly statements made under oath by stepping into the Auditor General's office. There they are recorded, and are open to the public. My answer to Wolfe's resolution was pronounced satis rac tory by prominent lawyers in the House, and the best evidence that it was satisfactory to the House is found in the fact that that body took no further action after the re port was presented. Reporter "What about the state ments not being made promptly ?" Treasuser iiutler lhey are made as promptly as it i3 within our phvsical power. The law re- ouires the exhibit of the condition of the Treasury on the first day of each month to be made. Now, it it is the intention of the law that the Treasury's condition on .the 1st of October, for instance, shall be published on the 1st of October, it is a physical impossibility to obey the law. ISut if the law means, as all intelligent people believe, that the condition of the Treasury on the first of October shall be published as soon thereafter as it can be made up, then we are obeying the law. We make our monthly statements as soon after the first of each month as we ossibly can. This closed the interview with Col. Dutler, the reporter thanking him for his kindness in giving so satisfactory a statement. liut little remains to be added to the above. Every intelligent man will see that Mr. Wolfe is making charges which he has never offered any evidence to sudstantiate, and which the parties accused earnestly deny, and where it is possible ex press their anxiety for investigation. Mr. Wolfe says Gov. Hoyt used money of the State in speculation and lost it Gov. Hoyt says he didn't Mr. Wolfe says the money that was due the State was not in the Treasury when Colonel Dutler took the ollice. Col. Dutler says it was ; has made his statement that it is there under oath, and further declares that any one who doubts the truth of his statement can make the investigation which he asked the Legislature to make, and which the Legislature refused to make by a unanimous vote, because they knew everything was right. Finally Mr. Wolfe says the Treasurer does not make monthly statements. Col. Dutler declares that he does and in vites any citizen to come to the Cap itol and examine them. He does not publish them in the newspapers because the law does not require him to do so. Who is then to be believed ? Col. Dutler, who offers evidence to substantiate his state- menu?, or Charles S. Wolfe, who, driven to desperation by loilcd am bition, is making grave charges which he admits are founded only on rumor, and which he tried to raise last winter because Treasurer Dutler obeved the law and refused to pay him $500 extra salary ? Peo pie will not be in doubt as to who to believe with the above facts before them. - Wolf Wants His $500. From the Lebanon Coorier. If Wolfe held the office of State Treasurer instead of Dutler, the treasury to-day would be 125,000, at least, poorer than it is. V olfe wanted to, and is still trying to get his "reform" grip into the treasury to that amount, while larmer Dut ler stood and still stands at the Treasury desk, like a grand and true guardian of the people's treas ure, warning on the marauders. beautiful Wolfe.

His feet touched bottom, Mr. Deck testified, as he stood up, with the water about to his breast; but a moment afterward he started to swim for the boat to obtain some personal effect3. When he had reached the boat his strength failed, and he sank beneath the water, ris ing to the surface again and sinking three times before finally disappear ing. John W. Perkins, a man who was fishing from the steamboat landing near the bridge at tho time, stated that when Mr. Law turned to swim back to the boat he called to him that he had be tter come ashore.
