"" " A xsrT down-pour of rain fur sev eral days, ajKiilcl the procession of the i. A. R- men at their encampment in St. Louis last week. The parade catue off, however, alsait 31,000 veterans turning out uud ir umbrellas and encased in guiu coats, hid the weather proved propi tious it was anticipated that not less than 6u,(HX) men would have been in line. The Republican postmaster in the Mas sachusetts village of Kast Wrenthain re signed a few mont hs ago, and lscause no PeiiKKTat in the place could be persuaded atx-'-pt the position the postal authori ties at Washington have diswintinued the office. This is the same sort of reform polity w hich the dog in the manger used to prevent the cows from eating the hay. The report of Adjutant (ieneral Grey of the G. A. R. made at St. Louis last week, state among other things, that for the last year ending March ISK7, the or ganisation expended f 2-3,9l.54 in chari ty. This money was disbursed to I", 607 comrades and their families, and R,!l!l others were assistiil, making in all litl.oOti individuals who received tenefits during the year. The Democratic papers tliat have been trying to induce the public to believe that the Grand Army had leen turned into a political machine, are now vehe mently congratulating the count ry on the fact that politics was totally ignored at the St. Louis encampment last wet k. In other words they are exulting over the fact that they are convicted liars Some people are easily plcam'd. At a meeting of the Democratic Com mittee of Fayette county on Saturday last, a resolution demanding the nomina tion f Mr. Hoyle was adopted. This is taking a pretty stiff position for a candi date whose home nomination it is charg ed, was pps'tircd by corruption, and it re mains to lie seen whether the IeiiiisTats of Greene county will knuckle down at the dictate of their Fayette brethren. Chairman Coomer and Sanders, of the Republican and Iiemocratic State Coui iiiittees, have jointly issuwi instructions alsmt election tickets. The instruttions are simply a succinct statement of the law, which provides that State Treasurer shall lie voted under the head of " State : " that Supreme Jndgeandany local Judges shall be votetl for under the bead of "Judiciary,- and otlier ollicers shall be voted for under the bead of "County." The Democratic pajiers of the day are vieing with each other in placing before their readers, accounts of the royal state in w hich Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland are traveling through the country. A brief time since, these journals were fulsome in their praise of the President's " Jetfer onian simplicity," and went into spasms of delight over Governor Pattison's tramp through the muddy streets of Harrisburg ou his way to the place of his inaugura tion. The President and Mrs. Cleveland ar rived safely at St. Louis on Saturday at midnight The daily papers are filled with details of their journey, which are much too voluminous for our columns. Crowds met them at every station at which their train stopped after leaving Washington, and the enthusiasm, partic ularly over Mrs. Cleveland, was loud in expression, and doubtless very gratifying to the fair lady of the White House. Not the slightest incident occured to mar the enjoyment of the excursionists up to their arrival at St. Tni. At the Democratic city convention in Philadelphia, last week, the post-ollife and other Administration otticials, dow n ed Mr. Ramtall, and having obtained possession of the Machine, will have the advantage in selecting delegates to the iK-mocratic National Convention next year. It is evident that the Presi dent has entered the fight against Ran. dall in this State. The contest was the most acrimonious t hat has taken place for years, and would have ended in murder had not the pistol of one of the defeated cantlidates missed fine. The Democratic journals are trying to make a tKiint in favor of this administra tion and its economic methods, by pub lishing and commenting on the fact, that while the Internal revenue collections have largely increased during the past two years, the cost tier cent, for collecting it lias lieen decreased. As all the inter nal revenue officials are aid fixed sala ries, any school-lniy can see at a glance that, if the collections increase and the cost of collection dis- not, that the rate per cent, for making them must lie less. Our I Viuocrat ic contemporaries must think that arithmetic is one of the lost arts, among the people. We wouldn't for the world say any thing unkind or unbecoming of so beauti ful and charming a lady as Mrs. Cleve kud is represented to lie, But suppose just suppose for a moment, that Presi dent Grant, or tiartield had taken their wives on an electioneering tour with them, and had permitted them to lie placed on a stand from which speeches were being wade, exiiosed to the gaze, admiration and criticism of assembled thousand as the telegraph reports was the case with Mrs. Cleveland at Indian apolis on Saturday last, wourlu't our Democratic brvthren have been scandal ized? Wouldn't they have cavorted and snorted, and looked awful things, and whispered cuss word, to themselves, and denounced the President, and perhaps the " first lady of the land " also and finally criticised the taste and lack of delicacy displayed. We say wouldn't they ? Y'ou tliat can recall the bnitality of the average Democratic newspaper a score of years air" can answer. Death of Tho as A. Armstrong. PiTTssi ao, Pa., Oct. 2 Thomas A.

Notwithstanding tlie rain continued to fall and the tart that thous ands of (irwnd Army men hat left Ssr their homes, the order " tall in ttr parade" was given at 9 o'clock this mornina.

In the lead was one otvupied oy Mayor Francis and (ieneral William T. Sherman. Although closely sheltered from the rain and sight the crowds soon found where the Old Commander was, and cheer upnu cheer marked his progress down the street, while frequent groups of men would rush from shelter to the carriage door to grasp bis hand. Then followed the divisions of the Grand Army, ten iu uumlier. The Dejsutment of Missouri, commanded by tolonel Nelson tole, were givun the right of the line. They had oume with several thousand, and even with tlie raiu and mud had a long column of man-hiiiR men. Here and there a Post armed with muskets, or a drum corps, broke the monotony of the line. At the column transparency of General Grant, on Fourth street, between Locust and St. Charles streets all the men uncovered their heads and pass ed by in silence. General Sherman and the reviewing offi cers stood in the rain, which cans? harder as the pnsttssion passed the reviewing stand. It took the Missouri division twenty-five minutes to pass.

Alsut six weeks ago the young coup le tame to the city. One of the young man s friends, worked in one of the electric-light establishments,, and they went to see the machinery- While passing through the shop Miss Harmon received a severe shock of electricity and fell lo the floor. In a few minutes she recovered sufficiently to be re moved from the place and was taken to her home. Medical aid was summoned. For four days the girl lay sralyxed. Then she regained the use of her limln but immediate ly Is-gau to lose tlcsh. Tlie hair on the left side of her head turned gray and began fall ing oul Afier four weeks she was able to be about and able to attend to most of her household duties, but in tliat time she had been transformed from a young, handsome girl into a feeble old woman. Her form. which had been ultimo and rounded, is thin and bent and the skin on Tier face and body is dry and wrinkled. Her voice is harsh and cracked and no one, to look at her, sroultl imagine that she was less than ttO years of an-. The physicians claim that the electric current communicated directly with the priitt-ipal nerve of the spine and left side of the head, and that tlie shock almost destroy ed their vitality. A Miser's Hidden Treasure. Akkon. !.. Oct. 2. Washington Reich - ard and Williitru Snyder while chopping achkI at New Portage otieiicd a log in which they discovered two shot-bags full of gold and silver coin, besides a roll of bills con UiiniiiK not It than $.'.ono. The bills were badly molded. The men at first kept quiet alsiut their treasure trove, which amounts to fully tlO.tsai, but were so happy over their sudden fortune that they went to town and bought grand new suits of clothes through out and then returning to New Portage, a coal-mining and niaiiafacturiiig village, set up drinks, until the population of the place was drunk almost to a man. The source of the money becoming known, older citizens recalled the fact tliat about fifteen yeaes ago Jacob Track bach, a miser, died at that place. He was supposed to be wealthy, having done a big business iu laud speculation. After his death his house and land were turned over to find his casb, but all without avail. It is now claimed that this tree had been the miser's treasury. The tree was rut down to-day andalsmt six feet from the ground a good-sized hole was found which gave evi dence of a plug having rotted in it. The silver dollars rolled out when the log was oiened, and the treasure which had for year been searched for was laid bare before the eyes of poor and now almost crazy men. Cyclone) In North Carolina. Chakuuttk, N. C. Out. Li CitiBena of C'hurion township report that cyclone pass ed over their section on Wetlnestlay after noon, soaring through the clouds like a bal loon, dipping down and rising again, carry ing an eddying mass of fence rails and tree limits in its circling path. It looked like a big black funnel, and it whirled around like a huge top. It was about 100 feet above the surface of the earth, but would occasionally dip down, wrench off the tree-tops and sweep up fences, The cyclone traveled at the rate of ibirty-flve miles an hour, and made a tremendous roar. It dipfssl down on the plantai iou of Sir. Alexander, tore up a number of peach and apple trees, took away the roof of his house, and rising again disappeared in the direction of Philadelphia Church. The skies were overcast with heavy clouds, among which a risible com motion was made as the black fiiniifl-slias-d mass tore its way through.

When tlie encamp ment reassembled this morning the Commit tee am Vnsions made a report in which they spoke of the fculore of that bill, which would have removed 12,000 veterans from public pauper houses. They call attewtloo to the Mexican Pension bill, far more liberal than the one fur pensioning the soldiers against the rebellion. This bill met the approval of the President, and they were surly stunned when from the same band cam a veto of the measure of like principle, but infinite smaller in degree. Sir the Veterans of the war against treason. They appealed to the Grand Army of tlie Republic and the response came from 300,000 membess in no uncertain tones.

The Fuiin- rs Ilaiik, at New Castle, was entered at an early hour this morning by masked robbers. Their movements awoke the cashier, w ho seized his pistol and fired, wounding one of the intruders. His comismions picked up the fallen man and quickly carried him out the front door, making their escape. The lank fltsir is marked with blood where he fell. The robbers got no booty and left be hind them a kit of burglars' tools, a wheel barrow and a ladder. They are supposes! to have come and gone by way of a Unit in the river near by. Tlie burglars immediately on entering the building overpowered, bound and gagged William J.

" I wont," said Cooper, instantly leveling and firing his own pistol and wounding the robber, who return ed the shot without harming Cooper. Blistd arks lead to the suspicion that the wound ed robber fell into the river and was drown ed in attempting to escape. An Insane Engineer.

At Har vey water tauk he pulled past several length The fireman mounted the tank and called to him to back, but he pulled further ahead. The fireman returned to tlie cab. and seeing that the engineer was dazed, himself backed down. For several stations the engineer would run past the platform, and wonld give a vacant smile when the firemaa objec ted. Couvinced at last tueeneineer was drunk, the fireman at Knoxville Jnnctiou grasped the lever and saved the train from going through the switch. The conductor remonstrated with the smiling engineer, who responded " All right." The train was now late, and the engineer put an all the steam. Having passed flea- eon, he gave a yell, and started to spring from the cab window. The watchful firemen caught him by the legs, and while he balan ced bim in tbe window ledge, he managed with his foot to stop the train. The cotiuc tor then helped to get him back to the bag gage car, where lie was carefully guarded to Ottumwa, and there turned over to the au thorities. He was brought home to-day in sane and did not recognise his wife. An Ohio Farmer Stricken with the uianaers. CoLcasts, O.. October 2. The annual session of the State Board of Health in this city brought to light the existence uf a pe culiar disease at A.la, in this State. James Leslie, a farmer, about six months ago no ticed s small sore coming on his cheek. It became more serious in spite of treatment, and in a few weeks assumed a malignant form and began eating away the bones of his nose. , Local physician pronounced it glanders, and said be had caught tbe disease from a horse, and that the disease was fatal and very contagious. ... The effect of this was to completely ostra cise Leslie, even his own kinsfolk deserting him. No leter iu olden time was so com pletely cast ouC So fearful of contagion are the neighbors that Leslie cannot dispose of his home, although willing to sell at half price. Leslie has thus been driven to appeal to tbe Board of Health for an opinion that will, as he holies, set aide the fears enter tained by his neighbors. The Board has sent an agent to investigate tlie case. - . , An Itchy Jail. . Dattos (., Octl A eonsklerablennmlier of United States prisoners are confined in the county jail here, and one of them, Sam uel Wyrick, of Columbus, is causing them a deal of trouble from the fact that he has got tbe itch, got it bait. The oilier twenty jail birds have been more or less exposed to it and the fear are that the infection may get such s bold that tlie jail will not get rid of it for some time. The jail physician ordered Wyrick traiisferred to aa isolated ceil for the present, aud his clothes were burned. . Tbe Govern men t paid for a new suit for him, and within s week it became necessary to born these also. The disease did not yield readily to treatment, and other clothes were burned until the Government had paid for six full suits. Then a protest came from tbe United States Marshal's office, and there tbe matter hang. Whipping their Neighbor.

He kept them in line about two hours or until tbe stage from Ballingter came in sight. This wa the Mage for him to onler them into the coach and cause the driver to hurriedly drive off.
