The one simple issue of this cam paign is whether the State is to be kept Republican or turned over to the Democracy, Vermont opened the fall cam paign last week, electing a Republi can Governor and State ticket by 22,000 majority. Tm: grand old Republican party cannot be overthrown bv a few self- important fellows who have fed at the public crib, until, like the ass pjx)ken of in the Scriptures, they have "waxed fat and kick." Thk Independent bosses hereabout are fully possessed of the juvenile faith that birds may be caught by sprinkling salt on their tails. The voters who can be canght this way are the iellows who must be salted, thev are so fresh. That lie of two hundred Inde pendents and a brass band from Meyersdalc, being in attendance at the meeting last week is doing duty in all the Independent and Demo cratic pajiers of the State, But that is just what it was intended for. Skxatok Cooi'KK, Chairman of the Republican State Committee, main tains that Stewart's vote for Gov ernor w ill fall materially below 50, HM, as many who at first intended to vote for him will not do so, find ing that a vote for him is a vote for Democratic success.

The Philadelphia Record, one of the ablest Democratic papers in the State, says : "The Free Trade League "of New York has given $5,009 to " wards the election of Pattison as a 'campaign starter, and ? 15.000 ad ditional has been promised." And yet Stewart and his lollowers. who are trying to elect Pattison, insist that the T; riff question is not an is sue in this fisht What manly, honest fellows j these Indcpenden s are !

Every Free Trade paper in the) land, inside or outside of Pennsyl- vania, is opposed to General Beaver. Why is this? Simply because every one of them knows that the election of General Beaver means a continu - ance of the protective system so far! as the voice of Pennsylvania is con-; cerned, and that hitf defeat will be ; construed into an abandonment of; ti, of r.-,....-. l,. onj Little bv little the cock-a-whoop Independents are lowering their j tone.

It was much less than half that time since the Judge was prancing around Bedford County, a blatant Democrat, trying to prove by the Bible that slavery was justifiable, and a Divine institution. But failing to procure a Legislative nomination by this means, he suddenly flip napped into the Republican ranks. And now after gorging himself at the public crib for fifteen years, he is preparing to turn a double-back-action somersault to the place from whence he came.

The Independents have stolen) the livery ot Uarl.eld to serve u.e Democracy in. Garfield was a Re publican who always fought inside the party lines. No better Republi can ever breathed. This is what he said ia his speech at Chicago, and his ringing appeal for unity and ha r-! mony among Republicans is as ap plicable, aa iorcible, as necessary j to-day as it was then : "In the sentiment of these ques tions, the Republican party has completed its twenty-five years of glorious existence, aid it has sent us here to prepare it for another lus trum of duty and of victory. How shall we accomplish this great work? We cannot do it, my friends, by as sailing our Republican brethren. God forbid that I should say one word, or cast one shadow upon any name on the roll of our heroes. The coming fight is our Thermopyhe. We are standing upon a narrow isthmus. If our spartan hosts are united, we can withstand all the Persians that the Xerxes of Democ racy can bring against them. Let us hold our ground this one ; ear and then the stars in their course will fight for us. The census will bring reinforcements and continued power. But in order to bring victory now we want the vote of every Republi can of every Grant Republican and every anti-Grant Republican iu America of every Blaine man and every anti-Blaine man. The vote of every follower of every candidate is needed to make success certain." Some very good people who realiy have at heart the welfare of the Re publican party, but who do not look closely into causes and results, think no harm will be done were Pennsyl vania to go Democratic this year. Thev seem to believe that because the election this fall is a State and not a National one that its result will have no bearing on National affairs. This is a grave error, as an examination of the subject will dis close. Aside from the influence a Democratic victory this year would have upon the next Presidential! ejection, and that it would have j powerful effect it is unnecessary to deny, is tiie nullification of the in- j fluence the State now wields in thejuauta information is given to the National councils of the Republican j public just as the announcement is party, which would follow even the j mad that the Pennsylvania lode temporary supremacy of Democratic; pendents are under the leadership doctrine in Pennsylvania.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany is about to construct in the city of Baltimore a new general pas senger station, at a cost of 82,000, 000, similar in architecture and in ternal arrangements to the Filbert street station in Philadelphia, which is believed to be the best in the country.

The Pennsylvania Canraxn. The following is from the Elinira Advertiser and it should be carefully read by every Republican, as it con tains much solid truth : The Pennsylvania canvass contin ues to attract the attention of the whole country, although the matter is not so generally discussed by the press now as it was a few weeks ago. The several stages of politics through which the state has passed the last six months have been the theme of earnest commenUon one !ide or the other by the papers of every state and territory in theuun. The question as to a new convenrym was perhaps more widely debated than almost any state issue which has arisen in years. But, despite all the hopes and admonitions touching that exigent question, the opportune moment came and went, and no such compromise was effected. There now seems no likelihood that any adjust ment of Republican difficulties as to a new convention will now be reached 'before the election. With this strong probability in view the Republicans of Pennsylvania will be called upon to pass judgement upon a very important issue whether the 9tate is to keep Republican or turn ed over to the Democracy. There can be no half-way ground in the case. The election next November will decide positively and radically one way or the other. Not only will there be no half-way about the case, the officers elected will serve out their term and no change can come except in the due course of time. If Pennsylvania goes Democratic, the Democrats will run the state on the methods so well kuownto their par ty, and the expectation, if any such exists that Mr. Pattison, if elected would be better than his party is vain and delusive. 1 he next Oover nor will come into office iust in time to bring his moral ami political iuilu - ence to bear upon the presidential campaign of 1884. In the hands ot his party, if chosed to the guberna torial otiice, Mr. Pattison would be as clay in the hands of the potter, and whatever his party wanted done to corrupt the politics of the state, to prostitute the patronage of the commonwealth to partisan and Dem ocratic ends would be done, and every lody knows it. It would seem as though it would be impossible to wrench the old Keystone State from its time-honored place in the Re publican arch, in a presidential year, i but that a tremendous ettort would be made to do so, if the Republicans permit it to fall into Democratic hands this fall, it were useless to de ny. In 187(i a powerful offort was made in ermont to reduce the Ke-j UjfIOSTOWS September 8.-The publican nia)onty simply tor thereof John Bayard Low, on trial mora efiect it would have. Now, it : fur the umrdet Jf Policeman Robb Mr. Pattison is elected, the coaoces , ;lt Cwnnt.llsvil i:i May ,a,t ent are that the Democrats would carry , - v'Uv the legislati're, make nil Hinan jjains of con;resmen and . I J c C To suppose, then, that with the vantage ground of the state govern ment on their side and the other gains to which we have alludco, the Democrats would not begin the work oi trying to carry tne state, in and push it with all their reckless and unscrupulous vigor is to suppose a very unnatural thing, and one which the record of the Democratic party does not warrant. rut the best interests of ti e peo ple and of the taxpayers of Pennsyl vania, we believe, require the con tinuance of Republican administra tion. We are confident and positive that, on the sole question, if left to all the voters, whether a change should be made from Republican to Democratic administration, there would be a very lame ma jority in I tavorot thelornier. 1 Ins being s lavoroi tneiorn.er. i ms wing i ind we doubt whether any cent man would dispute it the wish of the and the good of the people, they themselves tiring judges, are on the side of the Republican ticket. And the Democrats do not hone for success because the people desire such a change, but simply because thev think an irreparable breach lias occurred in the Republican ranks. ............ ...v ......... , sylvania permit the Democrats to ( steal into large urni i-n-cinunuei power in this wnv?

German! lieiormeu inurcn circles in tn:s ais- trict were considerably excited to day over the arrest of the Rev. Alex ander S. Keiser. a young married divine, while he was attending the services now in session at Womtls- dorf, in this county. The nro?. cu- tnx is Aliss -hlizabclo K. Miller, who alleges breach ot promise of marriage and claims damages to the amount of S3,0) damages. Shenfl Gerhart proceeded to the church to serve the warrant, and 1ms appear- ance created a stir. J he Lev. keu-er wascalledout, and when informed for what he was wanted mam ested AprllTL Jacob Shoemaker and W. R. BerkVy entered nan tor tne appearance ot" the defendant at court. Miss Miller is a single woman, aged twenty-four years.of respectable family. In her allegation she sets forth that seven years ago she resided in the family of the Rev. David Humbert, at Bow ers' Station, this county ; that Keis er visited Rev. Humbert when a theological student, and that he then paid his addresses to her and finally solicited her hand in mar riage. She promised to be his wife, but he especially stipulated that they should not be married until he was ordained as a minister; that she had received over four hundred let ters from him during a courtship of a few years and that while he was away at the seminary ; that they were couched in terms of the most endearing affection, and finally she became the mother of a male child of which he was the father. She alleges that she anxiously awaited his ordination that she might become his wife ; that he contribut ed to ths support of the child, and ! suggested that it Uft named "'.Milton 1 Obadiah Keiser that he spoke lov ingly of the child ; that he succeed ed in inducing her to rmrt with her love letters on the pretext that they might fall into the hands of stran gers ; that he was ordained to the ministry in May, 18S2, but that in stead of marrying her as he had promised he had married another lady and located in Pottsville. Miss Miller further alleges that when she ' heard that he was marri;d shu per sonally went to Pottsville and call ed upon him in the presence of his wife. He neither denied her charges nor offered any explanations. The clergyman bears a very good uaine land claims that he can snow ! the charges are groundless. that In The First DeRre. , ..... ,, ' vvuik iiuu.ic 'jt:u irnKjiim an- nounce an agreement About 7 o'clock v. m. nounced, in clanging on a verdict, the bell an tonts, that a V.Tft.ft 11--.

After a short delay the i Sheriff arrived with the prisoner, j Low nppeared reasonably cool. He i showed no signs of trepidation fur-j tiier than to finger his shirt collar,! as it to loosen it. As a verdict ot murder in the first degree was confi dently looked for, the excitement, though smothered, was intense. Prothonotary Searight called for the verdict and the foreman save it in a , 1;iiteriuK voice, '-Guilty of murder in i intelh-lthefirst degree." Peyond a slight! pallor, the prisoners countenance showed no signs of emotion. Ttie prisoner's counsel then requested that a rxiM of the jury be taken.
