The Republicans of Lancaster last week elected their Mayor and a majority of the City Council. This is the firtt Republican Mayor of that city since 1877. Last week the Roard of Pardons recommended that Ren Campbell, of Fayette county, imprisoned for ar son, be pardoned, because he is dy ing of consumption. Henry II. Payne, the newly elect ed Democratic Senator from Ohio, declares that he will not be a candi date for President. This proves that the old man is. not yet in his dotage. The terrific cycloue that has just devastated a portion of the South, was as fiercely destructive as the river floods, and the loss of life is much greater. The details which we print are heartrending. Since the elections of last week, the Democrats of this State are fol lowing the cxo:npleof the ground hog, wh having t-een his shadow on the second of the month, went into his hole and pulled it in after him. When fooling around the old Re publican machine in Philadelphia, Col. McClure evidently did'nt know it was loaded. Like the boy kicked by the mule, "if he isn't quite as handsome, he knows a deal more." The Republicans of Philadelphia walloped the combined forces of the Democracy and the too too Commit tee of One hundred, electing their Mayor by a majority of ten thou sand, and City Solicitor by thirteen thousand. Several Republican papers in this State have mentioned Chief Jus tice Mercur, of our Supreme Court, as a fitting candidate for President Judge Mercur deservedly ranks high as a law maker and a jurist, and is the peer in intellect, in purity of character and great personal worth, ofanyofthe distinguished gentle men who have been named in con nection with this exalted position. Unfortunately, however, availability will be chiefly looked to in the selec tion of a candidate, and as Pennsyl vania is held to be a certain Repub lican State, the politicians who nev er raise their eyes above mean tide, will give her the go by, in their search after some one, assumed to have the best chance of carrying such doubtful States as New Yoik, Ohio and Indiana.

Tuesday's storm wrecked hun dred, of submerged houses in the di.-trict around Fvansville, Indiana, besides drowning numbers of hogs and cattle. An immense amount ot corn was also lost.

Now there are o0,o00,000 sheep, and the annual clip is 320, 000,000 pounds, ; the annual value of which is $100,000,000. There are 1,020,000 flock masters and farmers engaged in wool growing, and by the reason of tne tariff on wool, competition has reduced the price to and support him cordially, if the convention should give him the nomination, but they do not regard him as the best or strongest candidate. The fact that Philadelphia, Pitts burg and Lancaster all gave hand some Republican majorities last week knocks the bottom out of Sam Randall's Presidential boom, and proves that Pennsylvania is not among the doubtful States.

The work gave mployment to bout 100 men a nd quite a little town baa sprung r.p named after the presideut of theco tnpauy. The coal is obtained by mx-ans of a shaft w hich reaches the mine at a dis tance of 4U0 feet from the surface. This morning a part of the force who had worked -during the night left the mine a little alter three o' clock aud sbventy others took their places, making the usual morning shillat about Li.oO o'clock, while the men were digging, suddenly and without warning, there occurred an explosion that shook the mine in every apartment, aud tiirew the uiea into the utmost consternatiou. The scene of tne explosion was in an apartment fully SIX) feet from the bottom of tbe shaft and therefore about 1,200 feet from the opening at the surface, yet the rejKirt was heard outside lor a considerable distance and the concussion was so great that the top ot the derrick, 100 feet high was knocked off. Two mules were standing at the bottom of the shaft, t00, feet from where the explosion occurred, and the rush of the air was so great that one of them was blown through a wooden cage, shattering j it 1 he other mule died from sutlo cation. The awful scene that ensued among the terror stricken miners cannot be described. All their lamps were blown out and they were left in darkness and confu sion. They had not recovered from the shock before tiiey found them selves unable to breathe. The ex plosion, which was caused by tire damp, a term which miners apply to the carbonated hydrogen or coal gas that issues from crevices of roofs in mines, left the mine filled with damp, which contains no oxy gen, and renders it impossible for lilc to be sustained for any length 1 time. This afterdamp is densest in the upper part of the mines and the men therefore congregated near thu bottom. But even here they did not long fuid relief. only one man escapes. Of atl the men who were in the heading where the explosion occur red, Dick Balsley aione escaped to tell the awful story. When the ex plosion came and all the lights were blwwn out, Dick Balsley was just changing his clothes. He at once wound part of his clothes tightly around his face and mouth to keep the foul air from choking him, and gave the rest of his garments to his companion with instructions to take the same precautions. He then started for the mine entrance, bid ding his companion follow. They ran over the bodies of men and shat tered wagons. They could see nothing but could hear the groans of dying men presently Balsley 's companion protested that they were nt going the right direction and turned buck and perished. Balsley pushed en until he finally saw light and was taken out. His escape is regarded by experienced miners as one of the most marvellous on rec ord. He says that some of the men kept their heads under water as long as they could and would change from water to after-damp intil finally they succumbed.

There is one train blocked near Waneeka that is out of wood and water. Snow plows are all ia motion and no further trouble is anticipated.
