TliE Auicricau Cheap Transporta
tion Convention met at Kici.inond, Va.,
on th 1st int. The noteworthy ques
tion before the convention was that the
" general govtrnuiout should control
the through lines of travel and trans
portation." Tbe Democrat." who have control of
thiogs in Arkansas, have an iutcrestmg
and beautiful proposition on hand. It
is to repudiate 15,000,000 of present
indebtedness, sell $2,500,000 in bonds
at 50 cents on the dollar, and run the
State two years without taxation ! In
other words the Garland Government
is merely organized to rob. The rea
son given for this is, that the debt is
b-M et the North, aud that it refused
to pay tbe Confederate debt. Pitts

Eidcs sending deputations to wait cpon
Congress and urge the passage of tLe

It appcata that tbe vote cast for the
State Tcu-pcrasce tieket iu some of the
counties was not included in tbe table
which we published list week. The
whole vote has not yet been received,
tut it is estimated that the aggregate
'will foot up somewhere between six
and eight thousand, which would bave
triumphantly elected all the Uepu'oii
can candidates. The men who voted
this ticket, and thus indirectly support
ed tbe Democratic nominees, will soon
be beseeching Republican Senators and
Kepresentatives to prevent the repeal
of the Local Optien Law. Tbe public
will await the issue with interest.

Ycsteriiat was the time designated
for the traasit of 'Venus." At this
writing no despatches have been re
ceived from the California coast, the
the nearest point from here where ob
servations have been made relative to
the passage of the planet "Venus" be
tween the earth and the sun. The last
time that the amorously named planet
passed between the '-King of day" and
our cwn mother earth was in the year
1769, more than one hundred years ago.
Astionomers estimate that in eii;lit
years from this date another transit
will take place. After that there will
be a lapse of one hundred and twenty
two years before the next transit. The
objects of tbe civilized governments iu
fitting out expeditious to observe the
transit is to pet an accurate measure
ment of the distance to the sun, and
other distances, such as to fixed stars,
&e., all very important to civilized
people.
TrMPKEscs people have already com
menced to realize that in all probability the
Local Option Law will be repealed by the
incoming Legislature this winter. Repub
licans in that body are under no political
obligation whatever to oppose its repeal.
Whatever iefi.ilatiou has been extended to
the temperance cauj hu been extenled by
Republican legislators. They did not view
the temperance question in a political as
pect; they viewed it as a moral question,
and as such they gave it ail the aid they
could consistent with the spirit of the times.
Temperance people have seen proper to
drag the question froni its moral plain, and
make it a political question. They have
gone al ter lalse geda ; they have placed the
dram drinker iu the secondary place, and
officers or State and Legilature in the
first place. Having set tip their standard
as a political party, as against all othei
parties, they hare no claims whatever on
the Republican or any other part-. It is
true that in an indirect way they gave aid
to the Democratic party If that party
chooses to give them aid and comfort, it is
tueir bushiest. If the Local Option Law is
regaled temperance people may appeal to
Governor Ilartranft to veto the repealing
bill. But what will they say if Governor
Hart rant t refer to the vote of the late elec
tion aad atates the fact that here are six to
eight thousand vote that were drawn away
from the Republican party when it was
doing what it could to further the temper
ance cause outside i4 politics f Temper
ance people bave no political claims on Gov
ernor Ilartranft. They cannot appeal to
him consistently on moral grounds, lor they
ignored the moral phase of the question
mud turned it into a political question. I

A F'!nl Uliw of ill the churches
or sects of Presbyterian creed is rieitrjr
attempted under auspices that seem to
warrant the belief in its success. A
convention for tbe purpose has assem
bled at New York, in which all tbe va
rious denominations are represented by
delegates, and tbe feeling seems ta be
harmonious and fraternal. It is not
proposed to assume authority or juris
diction, but to organize what may grad
ually develop into an associative feeling
and action among these churches, and
to facilitate connection and communi
cation between them. This is part of
the general movement looking to a Pan
Presbyterian Convention, bat it may
be regarded in a latger sense as drift
ing toward fraternity and evangelica!
onion among Protestants of all decom
nations. Many of the ablest minds in
all these churches look to such union
as a necessity of the age. JCorth .timer

A Troy, N. V., despatch, nnder date
of Nov. 129, says : A most horrible
story is current here of a singular and
barbarous murder. Recently a car
penter named Klias Williams began the
erection of a wooden frame bouse in the
midst of a forest, in a wild and unfre
quented district, about sixteen miles
north of Wellstown, Hamilton county.
He hired George Smith to assist him in
tbe work of construction. Oae day,
after they bad drunk many times from
a jug of liquor, the two men began des
perately to quatrel, and finally were
involved in a deadly fight. Williams,
in the course of the struggle, threw
Smith over a wooden saw-horse, and
with a band saw, which be all the time
held in his baud, sawed off tbe head ol
bis antagonist, severing it entirely from
the body. Iiis rage ceoling. remorse
came after it, and be followed his vic
tim into the diia land of retribution by
cutting the great vein of his own throat
with the saw, failing a corpse beside
the remains of Smith. A lad named
Grant witnessed the awful tragedy, and
conveyed the uews two utiles to the peo
ple who reside nearest the scene of tbe
crime. Williams was a married man,
and Smith a bachelor. They were both
buried the next day.

its mother's breast unconscious of the
awful fate of its parents. Medical aid
was promptly called, aud after the ap
plication of restoratives tbe husband
and wife rallied a little, but the latter
died within an hour. The husband
struggled on until this evening, when
he also died. The infant still lingers
in pain. When tbe husband was par
tially restored to consciousnesj, be said

A special despatch to the Louisville
Courier Journal says that three negroes
were taken from the jail at Morgans
field, Ivy., on the night of the 1st inst.,
by a band of masked men and banged
to a tree near the town. Uniontown,
in the same county, was visited by a
destructive conflagration some weeks
since, and these three negroes bad been
arrested, charged with having caused
the fire. They subsequently confessed
their crime, giving as an excuse that
the proprietor of tho distillery in which
the fire was started bad turned the
mother of one the negroes out of the TCry lLtimatc, and it is supposed that
house in which she was living. Thejsue is on her way with Haioes ta join

One Wednesday night, a few weeks
ago, a female fashionably attired enter
ed the store of Mr. Johu Koons, in
Cherryville, Northampton county, after
he had closed up, and representing her
self as tha wife of a gentleman in New
York with whom he did business, re
quested to be allowed to remain all
night at Mr. Koans' bouse, she having
a great dislike to staying at tbe hotel.
Her husband, she said, bad intended to
meet her there, but had beea detained
in Easton. Mr. Koons readily granted
tbe request of the lady. He lives with
his family over the btore. A colored
man in the employ of Mr. Koons, was
by and beard the woman's story, but
was suspicions of her, and went up
stairs and secreted himself under the
bed where he knew she must sleep.
When she entered the room and bad
locked the door she took out of a satchel
she carried two revolvers, a large knife,
and a long piece of rope, and laid them
on the stand. Tbe uegro also made
the discovery that tbe supposed woman
was a man disguised in female apparel.
The negro was badly 'tightened, but
was obliged to remain quiet where he
bad bidden.
Abcut midnight a peculiar whistle
was sounded outside. The man on the
bed sprang to the floor and went to the
window and cautiously raised it. He
leaned out of the window, and was evi
dently giving directions to some one
below. Tbe colored man thought it
was now time for bim to act. He
crept noisolessly from under the bed,
and creeping np to tbe man unheard,
he seized bim by the feet, and rising np
with him, threw bim headlong to the
ground below, a distance of twenty
feet. He then shouted for Mr. Koons,
and peering out of the window saw two
men pick np the apparently lifeless
body of their companion aud carry it
into the road, where a wagon was in
waiting guarded by another man. They
placed the body in tbe wagon, aod then
all rode swiftly away. Nothing has
been seen or heard of them np to this
time. But for the sagacity and cour
age of tbo negro, a heavy robbery
would Lave resulted. Ex.
A Mr. Frank Potts, of Warwick,
Chester county, called an evening or
two ago on a physician at or near Pugh
town, and said : " Doctor, should any
one call upon yon this evening to have
have Lis arm dressed and a ball ex
tracted from it, yon can take it for
granted that I pnt that ball there. The
fellow attempted to rob me on tbe high
way." Mr. Potls drove off, and was
scarcely out of sight, when the high
wayman came to get bis arm dressed.

O.N I of the most extraordinary elope
ments lately recorded is tbe main topic
of gossip among tbe people' of tbe city
f6r a sewing-machine company, piaeed
his wife anJ two children one three
years and the other ten months old-
iu a boarding-house in Caldwell, sub'
orb of Newark, and, in order to be
nearer to his place of business, pro
cured accommodations for himself io
the house of a Mrs. Smith, who keeps a
boarding-bonse on Snyder street, io
Orange proper. While residing there
he became acquainted with tbe band
some wife of a well-to-do carpenter
named George Roach, wbo resided in
the neighborhood. Ilia attentions to
ber finally became so marked as to elicit
unfavorable comment, and Roach for-
trade' bim"the hense. Tuesday after
noon last Haines visited bis wife in ber
Caldwell home. lie told ber that be
desired ber to live in tbe same bonse
with himself, and had made arrange
ments for her accommodation in tbe
bouse of Mrs. Smith. He wished ber
to move do sn on the following day, and
in order that the labor of moving might
be as light as possible for ber, be would
take their two children with bim to tbe
bouse that afternoon. Mrs. Haines
gathered and packed op the clothing of
the little ones, and with them and theii
baggage be went away. When Mrs.
Haines went to Mrs. Smith's bouse on
the following day she was astonished to
leain that neither ber husband nor the
children bad be.n at the bonse since
his visit to Caldwell, and that no prep
arations bad been made for ber enter
tainment. Bewildered and unable to
understand what this meant, she wan
dered back to the Orange Railroad de
pot and met Mr. Roach, who was in a
high state of excitement. He informed
ber that her husband and the children,
accompanied by Mrs. Roach and a wo
man uamed Rose Merrill, bad gone to
New York on a Morris and Essex train,
cn Tuesday night. Neither Mrs. Roach
nor Mr. Haines has been since seen in
Orange. Roach armed himself with a
fix-shooter and started out in search of
his wife. He declares that be will
siioot Haines on sight.
The fact that Rose Merrill a - om
panied the fiyiog party indicates an
other elopement. A man named Hern-
don, living ia East Orange, some time
ago disappeared from bis borne. His
wife bad been previously afflicted with
heart disease, aod tho shock produced
by her husband's flight ha) brought her
to the point of death. Rose Merrill
and Herndon are said to bave been
Orange?, where all the parties are well
kuown.
A bolt ten days ago a young man of
prepossessing appearance made the ac
quaintance cf a lady in Camden, who is
the mother cf several children, and
who, until the advent of the modern
Don Juan, lived very happily with a
dovotcd husband. The personal at
tractions of the young PhilaueipLian
proved stronger than her fidelity to ber
spouse, and at last, yielding to bis soli
citations, she left husband and children,
and cam? to this city, where ber par
amour found a quiet boarding bouse, in
which she would, as be fondly hoped,
be safe from pursuit. Had he taken
equal pair.s to conceal himself tbe re
sult might Lave been different. He,
however, engaged a room at the Mer
chants' Hotel, oil Fourth street, only
seeing bis inamorata at rare intervals.
Last evening two young, well-dressed,
and evidently cultured ladies, who af
terwards proved to be the sisters of the
frail wife and mother, entered tbo Mer
chants' Hotel and inquired for tbe
young gentleman alluded to. They
were informed by tbe clerk that be was
in his room and that they could see
him in the parlor. Thither they bent
their steps, and soon after their unsus
pecting victim appeared. Tbe scene
suddenly changed. Two pretty faces
which to the clerk bad been all smiles
suddenly became darkened with frowns.
Two little right hands which a few mo
ments before calmly reposed in their
muffs unexpectedly drew from some
dark recess two Colt's revolvers. The
young man was abruptly collared. Tbe
revolvers suddenly came into Unplea
sant contact with bis head, and be was
ordered in cool, determined toces, to
lead the way to the house ia which tbe
Camden lady was concealed, for a
moo.cnt he hesitated, but the cold
chambers of two revolvers stared him
in rbe facj, and he reluctantly left the
hotel with Lis fair captors, and went
with them to the house in which be bad
placed bis victim. When tbe brave
little women found themselves face to
face with their fallen sister, they let go
their bold and allowed a sadder and
wiser man to return to bis hotel. Tbe
Camden lady returned to ber borne last
e veiling. Phda. Press, Dec. 2.
On Wednesday night of last week,
Mr. Elias Danner, who resides on tbe
Walnut Bottom road, abont four miles
west of Carlisle, in Dickinson town
ship, heard a noise among his ducks in
the yard. On looking out, he observed
a man in the act of "bunching" several
ducks in a fence corner. Mr. D. chal
lenged the man, whereupon be jumped
the fence and took to bis heels. A shot
fired after bim by Mr. D. failed to cut
off bis retreat. Mr D. then procured
tbe assistance of bis brother, and fol
lowed the thief on horseback, who ran
down the road, jumped into a wagon,
and drove off. He attempted to elude
j pursuit by turning into all the by-roads I
and lanes be eould find ; but bis pur
suers were not to be bus baffled, who
kept following, and finally cornered him
in lane, near the farm of Mr. Evans,
about two miles southwest of Carlisle,
aud eaptured bim. Tbe man and wagon
were brought to Carlisle about 1 o'clock
on Thursday morning, and be was
lodged in jail nntil morning, when he
was taken to tbe office of Justice Shry
ock, where he gave tbe name of A. II.
Manzer. After bearing of the ease,
and in default of tbe required bail,
Meozer wad agaiu committed for bis ap
pearance at court. In the afternoon,
however, some of Lis relatives appeared
on tbe scene of trouble, who promptly
entered the required ball, and Metizer
was allowed his liberty again. The
wagon which he drove at the time of
his capture contained forty-two head of
geese and two ducks. It was at first
supposed that this, too, was purloined
property, but there being no evidence
to support this supposition, Mcnzer was
allowed to take bis property and dis
pose of it as he saw fit. Carlisle Vol

ganists come and try :t. and one and all say
that it is one of the sweetest and best toned
instruments in the niarhct. It has taken
tbe shine ont of ail the others around here.
1 am perfectly satisfied with it, and if I
could not get another cf the same kind,
money could not entice me to part with it.
You may publish this if you see fit, as my
crgaii can bo tried by any one wishing to do
