Of course when he's gone—thedevirstopayintlie print ingolSee, In Suspense. As an "honest," earnest seeker after the "new and enlightened views" which the editor of the Republican of this place pledg es himself to "promulgate" in this benight ed region ; we, last week, modestly ven tured to ask of that reformer and "over thrower of antiquated prejudices," a few simple questions. Instead of receiving plain straightforward replies, we are told that our questions are "impertinent" and that we "will be told all about it next (this) week." Thus have we been left, by this dispenser of light, —on a dark subject—in "outer darkness" for seven long days—The suspense is well nigh intolerable: Do, Mr Editor, turn on a faint ray of light, "From Afric's sunny fountain" The stopper of which, for this region, you are now controling. Our Candidates. We place at the head of our columns to day, the ticket put in nomination by tbe Convention which met- at this place on Monday last. All our candidates arc so well and favor ably known, that no extended remarks on their merits are deemed necessary. FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER. Win. B. Overfield, of Tunkhannock Township, seemed to be regarded as the most piopermanto look to tbe interests of the people of the Connty. Mr. Overfield possesses qualifications which in view of the large expenditures we are now making in the way of building and repairs to the pub lic buildings, the people of the Connty cannot injustice to themselves, overlook. Being one of the best practical builders and workmen of the county, he is the man of all others best fitted for the position to which he is nominated. The tax payers of the County will endorse the action of the Convention by electing him with a hand some majority. FOR JURY COMMISSIONER. James G. Fassett.of Windham,one of our most intelligent and honorable young men was selected. Much might be said in his favor; nothing can in truth, be said against him, FOR CORONER, Dr. A.J. Tripp, of Xorthmoreland, was without his knowledge or consent, put in nomination for this office, which, tbongh not ordinarily a profitable one, is neverthe less a very necessaiy, and in certain contin gencies an important one. He will have the business of sitting super visum corpore in tl.e case of a certain defunct black-and-tan coloredjparty about the second Tuesday of October next. FOR ACPITOR, The Hon. Henry Love was chosen by ac. clamation. Nothing that we could say wo'd add to or detract from the merits of one who is so well known and highly esteem ed as is J udgc Love.' Our ticket as a whole, is a strong and good one.

ARREST OF THE BUPPOSED MURDERER It became noised about yesterday that a telegram had bqen received, stating that a man, arrested as the supposed roniderer of Dr. Durkin, was aboard the express train from New York on the D., L., 6c W. R. R. due here at 4P. M. The news created considerable excitement. The train was an hour and a half late, in consequence of an accident to the locomotive, but this on ly increased tbe excitement. Mr. Lorenzo Zeidler was in charge of the prisoner, and before they could cross the street they were surrounded by a crowd so eager and boisterous that St almost seamed as if tbe prisoner's safety might be endangered.— No attack was made on htm, however.— The officers started up Lackawanna avenue with him, with the idea of putting liirn in tbe city lockup, but it was finally thought better to take him to the Wilkes- Barre jail, and he was accordingly taken to a room in Zeidler's building, and detained until tbe 7:10 P. M. train, when Lorenzo Zeidler took him to Wilkes-Barre. The prisoner's name is understood to be James Delamatcr, though he sometimes calls himself Robinson and sometimes Dougherty. He was arrested at White Hall, N. V. where be has been since June 11th. He is supposed to be the same man who was heard of soon after tbe murder at various points on the Penna. Coal Company's R 11. and the Delaware and Hudson canal, and who was at that time unsuccessfully pursued by officers frow this city. It is said that the brake man on the Lackawanna & Bloomsburg RR. can identify htm as tbe man who came up from Wilkes-Barre with I)r. Durkin on the night of the murder—May 14th. Mr. John Zeidler also recognizes him as the companion of the Doctor when the lat ter called for bis key at 10 o clock on tbe night of the I4tb. The prisoner's wife—whom he left early in June for another woman—says he told her that he killed tbe Doctor and got from him SBOO. It was through his wife that Delametcr was discovered to bo in White Hall, On the other hand, the prisoner stoutly asserts that he was never in Scraoton be fore, and that be can account for every boar of bis time from tbe 22d of April to the day of his arrest. He says that he commenced work in the mines of A. Pardee & Co., near liazleton, April 22, and work ed there steadily without losing a day, un til the 3d of June. He gives the name of the "boss" in the mine, and asks to have him called and examined. Of course, if credible witnesses from Hazleton corrobor ate this, it will establish an alibi and clear the prisoner He says lie went from Ha- 1 zleton to Berwick and Wilkes-Barre, and j thence to New York, and from there to a | small town in Ulste>* county, where he met a girl with whom he lived illicitly, for a few days, and then started for Whitehall, where he arrived June 11th, and where he has remained evei since. The prisoner , is about 80 years old, and by no means a vicious look fellow, lie cannot read or write, but is ready of speech, and shows no signs of nervousness or fear. He seived in the New York Militia aud 120,h New York Volunteers, during the war.— / Scra- \ ton Republican. AN ACT RELATIVE to negroes on railroads and street cars.

The Radical officers at llarrisburg, have made a bold effort to replenish the Treas ury, and oue, as we think, by no means jus tifiable by any law or usage. A year or two ago, the Radical Legisla ture repealed the State tax on real estate, j and left the tax on personal property, about SBOO,OOO stand. The Geary organ at llarrisburg frankly admits that the tax on personal property may not be necessa- i ry, and certainly it is not, but because the Legislature last winter, wisely or unwisely, neglected to pass the bill proposed by the State Treasurer, to apportion that amount I among the several counties of the Com monwealth, therefore these officers gravely undertake to increase the valuation on personal property to such an extent over and above the valuation of the township assessors as to raise $625,000! Now, what reason was there for this arbitrary j addition of $-325,000 to the State tax. For the last year or two there has been on an average nearly three millions in the Treasury of the State, and when we re member the rich drippings that fall from so large an amount, which cannot be less than $60,000 per annum in addition to le gal salaries, we can hardly wonder that i there should be some zeal on the part of the officers to collect taxes. Perhaps also when these Radical officers found that the State sustained an annual i loss of over $300,000 by reason of borrow ing $23,000,000 at six per cent., exempt from taxation, to pay off a tax loan of a similar amount, at five per cent., tbey con cluded to resort to this mode of proceeding to make it up. Whatever may be the reason given for this gross outrage upon the tax-payers, it cannot relieve the Radicals from the charge of having repealed the State tax on real estate only with a view to deceive and ' humbug the people. Had the Democratic party remained in power, the State tax on real and personal property, would have been repeated years ago, and the State debt reduced $5,000,000 below what it is.— Columbian.

The following extract from a speech deliv ered before the N. Y. State Editorial Conven tion, (lately holden at Penn Yan,)by a prom inent Advertising Agent of N. Y. city, goes to show that he at least acknowledges its advantages. From Jamestown. N. Y. Journal of Aug 2nd Edited by 0. E. Bish-p, Chairman of Committee on Advebtibinu Auf.mciks. "Mr. Pettingill *p<>ke in opposition to that plan from the publisher's stand point alone, lie showed the publishers that by this system of contracting they were giving lower rates than they gave their own home customers or others equally as prompt and good customers; that they were selling one portion of their paper to be used to compete with and under* bid the other columns; that the owner of the space thus sold could come right in and beat the publisher's prices and take his business away from hint ; that if ihe publishers, fully understanding this, siill wish to continue so irregular and business like a system he (Pettingill k Co.)should of course cease try ing to get advertising for the papers at their regular rates and go into the other system of contracting—which he could stand if the printers could." The anxiety on the account, of newspapers is uncalled for. There is not one in twenty which would not prefer to receive all their foreign patronage on this plan, when it is fully understood.

IS6A- Messrg. THOS. ALLCOCC A Co —Please send, with dispatch, twelve dozen Allcocd's Porous Plasters Our daily experience confirms their very superior excellence. At tbis momc nt of writing a man ap plies for one, who, by, entanglement in the shfat of machinery, had both his legs broken, spine severely injured, and was for nearly a year entirely helpless. This man found relief very soon by the application of a plastei to his spine, lie was soon enabled to work, and now he labors as well as ever. He would cheerfully pay 85 for a single Plaster if tbey could not be had at a lower rate; lam surprised that surgeons do not make use of the perforated plasters to the exclusions of all othe s, as their flexibility and and adhesiveness are greatly in advance of all other plasters with which lam acquainted ; while the perforations peculiar to them rendered them greatly superior to ail others for ordinary surgical uses - Knowing the plasteis to be so useful, I have no scruplos that my sentiments should be known.
