St. Cloud Hotel, ) Philadelphia, June 1, 18S5. J Pursuant to the rules of the party and the action of the State Commit tee the Republican State Convention will be held in the hall of the House of Representatives, at Harrisburg, on the second Wednesday of July, the 8th, 1SS5, at 10 o'clock a. m. Senatorial and Representative dele gate will be chosen under the old apportionment act as Senators and Representatives are nominated in their respective districts. By order of the Republican State Committee. Thomas V. Cooper, Chairman. Goversob Pattisox will be known to future historians as "Veto Bob." The public debt statement for May shows a reduction of the debt for that month to be $3, 350,833. The Senate has passed the House bill for adjournment on Friday next, the 12th inst. That settles it 1 Ocr ungallant Legislature last night refused to pass the bill allow ing women to practice law in this State. The Ohio Democrats are exhibit ing painful anxiety just now, to have the Prohibitionists nominate a State ticket If the speculators are not bulling the market, this year's crop will be one of the lightest we have had for some years. Governor Pattison evidently thinks that this is a Democratic State, and that he has a title deed in fee simple. The Republican Poetmistress at Napoleon, Mich., has married the Democrat whom she expected to be her successor. It any man has seen the great improvement in the times, which was promised if Cleveland was elect ed, let him stand up and be counted. The President has made one of Brother Beecher's sons a Collector of Customs out in Washington terri tory. Faith has thus it perfect reward. The high license bill failed to pass the House on Thursday last for lack of three votes. The liquor dealers can now rest easy for the next two years. State Convention, which will be held at Harrisburg on the 8th day of July. In Iowa there are 955 farms own ed by women, 18 managed by wom en, 20 dairy farms directed entirely by women, 125 women physicians, and 5 lady attorneys-at-law. The Democratic legend, daily found in the journals of that party, runs thus: Tom Jones removed for "offensive partisanship ;" Bill Sykes a staunch Democrat, appointed. Pcbuc sentiment has constrained Ins rresident to request the resig nation of Meade, the endorser of the mmrder of Prent Matthews, whom he lately -appointed a post master. It is asserted to be a positive fact that, since the clewing of the iron mills in Pittsburg by rea'on of the strike, the denizens of that smoky city get occaaiooal glimpse of the sun at mid-dy. Farmers should harvest and gar ner every bushel of their short crop of wheat, and sell only enough at present prices to pay for their daily and weekly newspapers and a copy of the revised edition of the Old Testament Either the gum is not good or the English have in these latter days lost their "licking" qualities. We infer this from the reported fact that this year GO.000 stamps have been found in the letter-boxes of Great Britain. It isn't altogether wise to place too much confidence in tne tales about locusts, grasshoppers, hessian flies, and other pests ravaging the crops in the western States. Spec ulators in grain are not an altogeth er guileless class; exuberant fancy ofttimes tinges reports from the "far west" The President has been swinging his axe pretty freely among the Col lectors of Internal Revenue. There are eighty-five of these officials in the service, and thus far forty-two of them have been decapitated. The remainder will find their heads in the basket before the end of the month. The Attorney General has placed the papers in the case against Dr. Smith Buttermore, of Connellsville who secured 812,500 of the State money for a bogus hospital in the hands of the District Attorney at Harrisburg, with instructions to have him indicted for conspiracy to defraud. We observe that although Samuel J. Randall is reported to be suffer-! ing severely from gout, his foot is not too sore to assist every few days in kicking out of eflice a member of the party by whose grace it is made possible for him to be return-! ed to Congress year after year, from the Republican city of Philadel phia. Georc.e William Curtis, in liar- jier'tt Weekly, has absolutely come io the conclusion that Mr. Cleve land's conduct in the matter of ap pointments is not consistent We would like to have Mr. Curtis' opin ion oi the consistency oi a gentle man who assisted in nominating the Republican candidates last fall and then went back on them. duties of self-government who have gone to that Territory from older States. Most o them are citizens who have been content to lay aside for a time the rights of suffrage which they enjoyed in order to build up for the Union on new ter ritory a strong intelligent, and pros perous State.

Two weeks ago the Hon. Henry Watterson sat in his darkened tent grand, gloomy and peculiar, breathing out threatening against the present rulers in high places. About the same time the Hon. Joseph Blackburn, like a young rooster in early spring, mounted the top rail of the highest fence, and cockadoodle-dooed the merriest crow ever heard in Ken tucky. But what a change ! Hen ry returns from Washington, once blind, now seeing, and with such strains of music in praise of the ad ministration issuing from his throat that the blackbirds on the tallest syc amores in the Ohio bottoms stop to listen. Blackburn in the meantime, connected by wire with the White House, heard something drop, and has been seized with his old mania about "walking knee-deep in blood;" but this time it is not the "blood of the Union Soldiers," but of the very saints whose charms Colonel Wat terson is now chanting. The situ ation is very touching and deeply instructive. Inter Oi'ean.

He Bays a party is raiding east of him. A dispatch from Gen eral Crook at Bayard, yesterday ,says thev have no definite news trom the scouts or Indians." In another dispatch to General Drum, dated San Francisco, June 3, General Pope says : t "Everything possible is being done to put a stop to the Indian troubles in Arizona and New Mexi co. Only 34 men of the Apaches have gone off with their women and children, and are trying to get to Mexico, killing and taking every thing that falls in their way. The difficulty is to overcome or head them off, but there is a large force of cavalry after them and it would seem that they must be caught General Crook, who knows more about these Indians than any other man, is in the field, and says he needs no more troops. Of course the newspaper reports are sensa tional and exaggerated and create unnecessary alarm.

The thieves vere tracked into the mountains to a place where three families reside, members of which have all served terms of imprison ment for chicken stealing before. None of the iwle members of the family were akout, but the moun tains are being diligently searched by farmers and townspeople. Daniel Hollinger, the father of the murder ed man, is one of the wealthiest and most influential citizens ot this county. He is almost wild with gnel and has offered a reward lor the appreheusion of the slayers of his son. The Commissioners ot Frank lin County this afternoon offereu a reward ot $500.

CoL Quay, of Beaver, Mr. McDevitt, of Lancaster, Mr. Greena walt, of Charubersburg, Mr. Wig ton, of Altoona, and Senator Long enecker, of Bedford, are all being boosted by their respective friends. The report of the New York State Dairy Commissioner shows that the people of New York and Brooklyn consume about two hundred mil cows. This, however, does not in elude the pump water, liberally col ored with chalk, that is served in three-fourths of the eating houses in the two cities. No action has as yet been taken on the vetoes of the apportionment bills, which indicates a fear that they cannot be reversed in the Sen ate. If party lines can be strictly drawn the Governor will be sustain ed, and apportionment will go over until next session. Thus the be trayal of General Beaver bears fresh fruit by throttling the 81,000 ma jority in th State. The anti-dicrimination bill is dead and done for this session, and the railroads have another two years' leae in which to recoup their looses made by cutting prices on through freights, by tkinning the local traffic which is at its mercy.

The question went before the people, and a ma jority of 81 Republicans were elect- ted to the present House. This Legislature, after long deliberation and a full interchange of sentiment, agreed upon bills apportioning the State, which were so fair as to meet the approval of a number of Demo cratic members, and leaders of that party in the State, but the Governor having apparently learned nothing from past experience, vetoed them on almost purely partisan grounds. An ordinarily sensible man would have concluded by this time that it was fruitless to further attempt to bulldoze such a body of hard-head ed representatives, but it is asserted with much tenacity by his friends, that the Governor absolutely con templates calling an extra session. On account of the unless waste of the public money, we trust this re port may prove false, otherwise we have no objection to his Excellency taking a whack at the wall with his in no other," saith the adage.

In April 18S3, Miss Mary Lilly, a respectablei young woman, daughter ot l eter Lilly, of this city, was married to John McMahon, also ef Galena, af ter an engagement of three years, the girl refusing to marry her lover until he had provided a home. 1 he latter having, it is alleged, agsured Mi6s Lilly that he was ready to tak3 her to a home of her own, the mar riage was performed with considera ble pomp at the Lilly homestead. Immediately young Mrs. McMahon informed her husband that she was ready to go to the house he had pre pared. McMahon coolly said that he had resorted to a trick to get her, that he bad no house of his own, and that they most go to boarding. The newly made wife refused abso lutely to live with her husband un til he procured a home as he had promised, and the latter left her within an hour after his marriage, since which time they have not liv ed together. Mrs. McMahou has just been granted a divorce by Judge William Brown.

The boys drove to a house in the neighborhood with the body of their murdered father and gave tho alarm. The woods were searched for the as sassin, but without result Circum stances kuown to the Sheriff caused him to suspect David T. Fairly, a neighbor of McKay, of the murder, and Fairly was arrested and lodged in jail. He stood well in the com munity, but popular belief in his guilt was strong notwithstanding he earnestly protested his innocence. Threats of lynching were made, and the Sheriff put a strong guard over the jail. A few days ago r airly made application for a writ of habeas corpus. This fact become known, and a band of masked men assaulted the jail at night over pow ered the guard after considerable resistance, and taking Fairly away hanged him to an oak tree in the neighborhood. None of the lynching party is known. There is great excitement over the affair. Both McKay and Fairly have many mends and rela tives in and around Leaksville. Naked Lamps In. a Mine.
