Dabs BfRsen. On bust Wednesday morn
ing about half-pust three o'clock the barn
of Henry Curley, in Allegheny township,
was discovered to be on lire and in a very
short time burned to the ground, together
with a large quantity of hay and straw
which was stored therein, two stacks of hay
outside, two valuable horses, and a lot of
farming implements. The barn was a good
structure, only recently built. The loss
falls heavily on Mr. Curley, as he bad no
insurance. The fire is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary. G.
On last Thursday a man apparently about
10 or 00 years of age, was found dead in the
bushes near the shaft, at I!r:ok Tunnel.
Justice William Shaw empaneled a jury
which, after investigation, decided that the
deceased came to his death by having his
threat cut, by some jerson unknown to the
jury. From papers found in the satchel of
the deceased, it appears his name is John
Hays. His time-book denoted thai he had
been in the employ of the Connellsville
Coal and Coke Company at Leisenring, in
Fayette county From the appearance of
tbe body, the man had been dead about fif
teen days. Mac.

The Home or Jonx Stewart. There are
just three counties in Pennsylvania that
show Democratic gains over Garfield's vote
of ISK0. Franklin gives Blaine 102 less
than Garfield ; Lawrence gives Blaine 20
less, and Potter gives Blaine 12!ess. It will
be obseryed that two of these. Franklin and
Potter, were where the Independents large
ly flourished in 1S82, Franklin being the
home of John Stewart, who figured so
prominently in recommending the cutting
of the Republican candidate for Governor.
It is probable that some of Mr. Stewart's old
speeches were lying round loose this year
and cot into some people's hands who
thought his advice referred to this year.
Last Wednesday morning Mr. Henry -II
Weimer, a farmer living three miles south
east of this place, was making preparations
to butcher. Several days prior to this he
had carefully cleaned his rifle and laid it
away for this occasion, but in the meantime
a neighbor had borrowed the gun and re
turned it loaded. Going intothe house Mr.
Weimer took down the rifle, and to ascer
tain whether it was loaded he placed his
foot on the hammer and attempted to blow
in the muzzle. It was loaded and his foot
slipping from the hammer discharged the
weapon, the ball entering his mouth pen
t rated his skull and killed him instantly
Mr. Weimer was a highly respected farmer,
and an elder in the brethren chnrch.

their respective districts recognition oftheir
services to the Republican party during the
recent campaign. Senator Longcneckerdid
nobly in Bedford, almost obliterating tbe
Democratic majority ; Martin Bell carried
Blair through handsomely against tbe most
bitter fight ever made-there, and John 8cott
not contented with an old-fashioned Repub
lican majority in Somerset, rolled op the
figures until their size surprised the oldest
politicians. All three of tbe gentlemen are
successful lawyers and were selected as chair
.IX
men in their respective counties on account
of their peculiar fitness. Though they
would have preferred that Homebody else
should be chosen, they did not shirk the
responsibility, but went to work with their
sleeves rolled up and showed what good
men cacd do when they try. All honor to

The danger of incidental barm to the com
munity, or to certain classes of people, from
the increased use of machinery, the exten
sion of public works, etc., is greatly dimin
ished when those who make the laws, and
especially those whose duty it is to interpret
them, recognize that law- is a progressive
science ; that it is a means, not an end ;
that when a state of things arises for which
there is no precedent, a new precedent must
be made. How the most enlightened ju
rists hold this principle constantly in view
and how the common as well as the
statute law is thus made to keep pace with
the general advance of civilization, is ad
mirably set forth in the leading article in
tbe "North American Review" for Decem
ber, I Jibor and Capital before the law," by
Judge T. M. Cooley, of Michigan. To the
same number, William K. Ackerman con
tributes some suggestive "Notes on Railway
Management," Dr. Schliemann tells what
be found in bis excavations of the ruins of
Tiryns, in Southern Greece, and Principal
Shairp supplements his scholarly article on
"Friendship in Ancient roetry" with one
on "Friendship in English Poetry." The
other articles in the number are: "The
British House of Lords," by George Tick nor
Curtis, and "Resjiousibility for State Ro
guery," by John F. Hume.
JT The Vandehbilt Road. The following
i i.
article, which we clip from the Pittsburgh
Commercial-Gazette, will be read with inter
est by all persons along the line of tbe South
l'enna. Road :
The evidence accumulates that Wm. H.
Vanderbilt has, so fur as he is concerned,
canceled the offensive and defensive alli
ance heretofore entered into by the Reading
Railroad Company as the party of the sec
ond part, and the aforesaid Wm.H. Vander
bilt as party of the first part actual and
relative positions being here stated. Work
on tbe South Penn Railroad, pushed with
vigor when Mr. Vanderbilt opened his
purse under the stimulus of personal inter
est, is now languishing. The piers of tbe
bridge across the Susquehanna at Harris-
burg are built, but the contractors have
been notified to give over the construction
of the piers through the city of Harrisburg,
which are necessary to carry the South Penn
over the" Pennsylvania Railroid Campany's
tracks. The force of civil engineers has
been reduced, and work on the tunnels and
elsewhere is being reduced to the minimum
nothing more being done in reality than is
sufficient to keep np appearances. The ex
planation is said to be made plain by put
ting this and that together. Vanderbilt
helped Gowen to get control of the Jersey
Central, and has now sold out all his stock
in that road. And now he he bar with
drawn his support from the Reading, feel
ing hopeless of redeeming it from bank
ruutcv. The belief is current that he has
just joined hands with the Pennsylvania, so
that the New York Central and the Penn
sylvania railroads can combine against
their competitors, the West Shore and Balto.
i Ohio railroads. It is also believed that
Vanderbilt and the Pennsylvania Railroad
Companyare after the coal and iron lands
owned hr the Philadelphia Coal Iron
Company, and if they get them the Reading
railroad is doomed. The Pennsylvania
Railroad now runs into Reading, and is en
gaged in building a new road through the
Lebanon valley alongside of tbe Reading
road, from Reading to Harrifburg. It will
take about two yean to complete this
branch, and when it is built it is conjectur
ed that it will be made a connection of the
Vanderbilt road. At all events, the latter
enterprise will not be pushed until the
Pennsylvania branch from Reading to Hav-
Xrisbnrg is well under way,

It ESOLTTIONS OF CONDOLENCE.
Wiierehs, God, in his providence, having
seen fit to remove by death Mrs. Sarah
Thomas, wife of comrade Wm. R. Thomas,
therefore,
Jlesolred, That in this disuensation of the
Creator of ail things, that we, the comrades
of this post, deeply sympathize with Com
rade Thomas in the loss of his partner in
life, the sharer of his joys and sorrows.
Homed, That while our friends may die
and leave our hearts and homes desolate,
that we should remember that sorrow has
its useful lessons, when it is legitimate, and
death is the gate that opens out of earth to
wards that house " eternal in the heavens."
Let us remember that every step should
bring ns nearer the departod and their eter.
al home, where death never enters the
ranks, and where partings are unknown.
Who, even, when the tomb is closing over
tbe remains of her whom he most loved,
when he feels his heart, as it were, ciushed
in the closing of its portal, would accept of
consolation that must be bought by for
getful ncss.
Jiesolred, That Eorrow for the dead is the
only sorrow from which we refuse to be di
vorced, every other wound we seek to heal,
every other affliction to forget ; sorrow is
the night of the mind. What would be a
day without its night? The day reveals but
one sun only ; the night brings to light the
whole universe ; sorrow is the firmament of
thought, and school of intelligence. The
poet has truly said,
The good are better made by ill ;
As odors crushed, are sweeter still.
Eetolced, That while w extend our sym
pathy to our bereaved Comrade Thomas,
wbo during the late war devoted over four
years of his life to the cause of his country,
let him feel encouraged to press forward in
the battle of life, inspired by the hope that
when it is over we may close up our ranks
on the shores of peace and happiness, where
the sound of the " long roll " and " death
march " shall never again be heard.
Jiesolred, That a copy of these resolutions
be recorded on the minutes of this Post, and
that a copy be presented to Comrade Thom
as, and that the same be published in the
county papers.

lie was a uic-ioiia; resilient ui aoiuersci
township, in this county, and in the old
homestead, his birthplace, where he spent
bis entire Jife, he died. He was well known
in the community in which he lived as a
mau of sterling integrity. Through his
prudence and industry, he had acquired a
handsome competency. He was a man of
retired habits, but at all times, at his home,
hospitable and cordial, and his neighbors
bear universal testimony to his kind and
unobtrusive life. It can be said without
affectation, that but few men possessing the
means wbich;he possessed, transacted their
business with less difficulty, " His word
was as good as his boud " ; always demand
ing that which was his own, but with equal
honesty giving to others their just dues.
If the characteristic which he possessed
were more prevalent, there would be
less litigation in our county court. Some 3(5
years ago he was united in marriage to Mrs.
Sarah Kline, of this county. Four chil
dren, two sons and two daughters, were
born to them, all of whom survive him ex
cept one son, who after having grown to
manhood died of diphtheria during the ep
idemic some four years ago His surviving
son, Jacob K., our lately elected County Au
ditor, lives ou the old homestead, with
whom the bereaved wife and mother now
resides. His daughters, Mrs. Peter and
Benjamin Miller, having married honorable
and much rospected men, live on adjotning
farms, and by their gentle ministrations
render less severe the affliction of their wid
owed mother. At the earlv ace of 14 vears
i -
1 the deceased united with Christ's Lntberan
church,
His health had been much ira
Paired tor the last eight or nine years, and
frequently prevented him from attendance
upon church services. The funeral servi-
ces vere attendvd by an unusually large
concourse of friends, and the occasion was
improved by his pastor, Rev. J. F. Shearer,
preaching a sermon Subject, " Heavenly
Recognition." He rests in peace.
Yea, though w e journey through Death's
ebadowed vale.
No evil we rear, for His arms will enfold as ;
With his presence vouchsafed not a foe can
assail,
His rod and His staff through the gloom will
uphold us.
Tne National Bank.
Washington, Noyetaber 13. The
charters of 721 national banks, with
an aggregate capital of over $189,
(K30,0U0, will expire during the year
1885. This is more than one-third
of the entire number ot national
banks now in existence. From in
formation already received by the
Comptroller of the Currency it is ex
pected that a large number of these
banks will continue their existence,
either by extending their charters or
reorganizing under different titles.
There are at present more national
banks in existence with a larger ag
gregate capital than there ever were
before. Tbe capital invested in
national banks was increased about
$15,000,000 during the year ended
September 30, 1884.
