Wilson, that the Sen tinel and Republican has not recognized the organization of the Republican party. No more improper men to make ueh a charge can be found in the community than Messrs. Moore and Wilson. The Crst-named geutle luan is a discharged employe of the Government rrrntMig office in Wash ington. Since his arrival here his con duct has been of such character that would have warranted bis discharge from almost any other plaee than the office of the Independent, where he has been quartering on the bounty of Mr. Speddy, bis brother-in-law. It was from the office of that paper that the circular was issued. Capt. Wilson now bolds a lucrative t'ffice in the mail service under the Gen eral Government, that coald be easily dispensed with, and that much be saved for the reduction of the national debt. He travels from llarrisburg to A 1 too ns in one day, when on duty, and the next day, if on duty, back from Al toona to llarrisburg. About four hours a day is required to make the trip. One-fourth of Lis time, three months of the year, he spends here at Miffliu towa. Tue two other men who are on the route with him could fulfill all the requirements of die office easily with out birr.. In that situation be is like the fifth wheel to a wagon. His offiee reflects do credit on the man who se cured it for him, bet tells that there is something rotten where . soundness should exist, t'ffice held by such peo ple and under stub circumstances is what is bringmg the Republican party, notwithstanding its noble principles, into contempt and reproach. If a pe tition were circulated, the Republican party in this county, with few exceptions, would ask that he' be served like Mr. Moore was served, namely, 0iscbarged. The moral and politic! effect ef carry :vt such people in office is tellfcg lowly but surely, and if the banquet nd carnivil is tot (topped to heed tbe "handwriting on tie wall," o.L?r men, as of old, will come io aud occupy their place. People, though they be as loyal to a cause as loyalty itself, may be driven to a point where they will have to strike to save tbe cause. That was done last fall. lias the lesson been lost .' Let the men who appoint these tcrbulcnt people learn the lesson before it is too late. There is a wide spread discontent now atncrjg the people, and if such charac ters are not held in leash, they will raise such a storm, as that of last fall when compared to it, will be as nothing. We know what the souse of the people is, aud we say these things, " more in sorrow than in aorr," for the good of all, as one cf the great body of tbe Republican party who have no office and are not asking for place. Tbe columns of the Sentinel and Re publican bear testimony as to bow true the paper has been to ILe cause. It will compare favorably with any county paper in the State in the advocacy of tbe faith. - For weeks the names of tbe men at the bead of the organization tbe County Committee Lave been publish ed at tbe bead of column of reading matter, a publication that has not been in custom, except fcrone or two inser tions. Some time since the County Com mittee was called to meet in this town. Undesignedly, n6 doubt, it was called at socb a time when the members con stituting it were busy at borne with their business and could not leave with out some sacrifice to their personal in terests. The result was that on tbe day of meeting, a few men were in at tendance. TLe men present were, Geo. W. Smith, chairman, Reuben Caveny, 11. A. Stambangh, Mr. Hertiler, T. T. Pavis and Dauiel Kauffnian. At the meeting the following resolution was offered by Mr. Davis : Rewired, That the rule requiring all can didates' names to be announced lour weeks previous to the Primary Election be aud is hereby abrogated." It is plain justice to Mr. Davis to state that he was not the author of the resolution that at one stroke proposed to destroy tbe system under which the primary elections are conducted and candidates elected by the Republican party in this county. Mr. William Al lison, who is also one of the office holding class referred to above, and ranks admirably well with Moore and Wilson, and plays tlie part of the pro verbial '-fifth wheel" in an office in Philadelphia, and engages in private business there of which it is not our purpose cow to speak, iramed the reso lution and induced Mr. Davis to offer it. It was a malicious blow at tic system of rules or laws under which the Republican party vote at the pri mary election in Ibis county, and if tbey counted npon us becoming a silent partner in tbe outrageous attempt to violate the rights of the Republican pecplo in this county, they counted wrongly. Tbe resolution, however, did not pass in that form. Mr. Smith, Mr. Stambaugh aud Mr. Caveny knew, if tbe others did not, that it was an act of usurpation, and that it would prove an net of suicide almost as it were to all concerned to pass it. They knew that it was touching a matter that did not concern the Committee, a point with which it bad no business whatever, and that is passage would bring down the righteous indignation of the whole party on tbe offenders, and they so ex pressed themselves. The whole subject ehouTd Lave been dropped at that junc ture, for the Committee had no busi ness to act on it in any other way than to reject it. It was uo more their busi ness to act on it, than it is their busi ness to act on the matter of ruling out, or amending the State Constitution. The system which they attempted to rule out is the Constitution of lift party in this county for its' government, adopted by the Republicans on a pop ular vote, at the polls. Rut it was not dropped. It assumed an amended form, which we published, which we should not have done, nod as far as the publi cation of that amendment goes, one time, we are guilty of having been a party to a refusal to recognize the rules of the party. The file of the Sentinel and Republican, however, will bear tes timony that at the same time that we published tbe action of the Committee, we also slated that it was wrong for them to so act, that their act was an usupation of rights that belonged to the nass of the party, rights that can' not be touched by committee or con vention of return judges, and if tbe Republican party will forgive ns for conntenancing that violent effort to invade their rights, we are content. Thus it will be seen that we are not the party who have failed to recognise the organization, but the men who con cocted and framed the resolution are the parties wbo have not recognized tbe rules and laws for the government of tbe organization. They have attempted to set themselves above the organisa tion and ignore the system under which candidates ave nominated iu the Repub lican party in this county. By the aid of a few men, who tbey deceived into acting wi'.h them, they attempted to nndc what was reacted by a vote cf tbe people of the party, aud which csn only be undone by a direct vote f tbe party at tbe polls. They have been tbe people wbo committed the wrong on the organization, ignoied it, refused to reeognire it, set themselves above it, and then, with Satanie meanness, blamed other people wbo were straggling to maintain the rights of the party with what tbey were doing themselves. Let tbe people who bavo the cause at heart see to it tbit in the different die- tricts, townships, on tbe 25 tb of Sep tember next, when they vote tb uorai tate candidates for tbe different county officers, that tbey elect honest and om petent return judges, wbo will not come here and falsify the returns, and be eontroled by tbe men mentiooed. The party is becoming odious under the conduct of such people who are in office. They have already been too well served, and in excuse it can only be added that the general distress of tbe country caused by the Rebellion and a righteous feeling against tbe return to power of tbe men who inaugurated it has induced tbe Republican party to tolerate them in office and keep in places of trust such men as Wilson, Allison and Liggett. If the men wbo keep tbem in place, as it were by force, in utter disrrgaid of the widespread dis content, and urge them on to bound in obscene lacguage men wbo will not be come parties to their attempted usurpa tion, tbey will learn, when too late to learn with profit, tbat the people are the masters iu this land of free govern ment, and will put them all out and inaugurate a new set of rulers. W e would no more think of recog nizing tbe attempts of usurpation of Allijon, Wilson & Co., than we would think of raising standard for the Em pire of King William, or the Kingdom of Queen Victoria. Tbe Sentinel and Republican has maintained the rights of tbe Republi can organization, particularly, and tbe rights of the tax-payers generally, and again asks for a faithful scrutiny of all the management in the county, and townships, so as to secure a lessening of the local taxation, which is oppres sive. If tbe National and State taxa tion were on a level with the county and township taxatiou, tbe country would run into bankruptcy in less than three years, and tbe people be reduced to the condition of serfs. The country is in need of a change in many of its departments all round. Men who bold office where there is no need of officials, in such cases as tbat of Allison and WiFson, are fifth wheels, and tbe sala ries tbey get is just tbat much squan dered, that should be appropriated to the payment of tbe National debt. They should be put out. The county management id this county should pass into the bauds of the Republican party this fall. To make these changes it is not neoessary to abuse people. All can be done by a determined petition ing and voting, and if wrongs manifest themselves they can be righted in the courts. News Items. Lula is the name of the beast that has eclipsed Goldsmith Maid on tbe race course. Tbe oldest man lives in Troy, New York. lie is an Irishman by birth. 11 is age is 109 years. On the 17th inst. a sad case of sui cide was enacted near Reading, this State, by tbe wife of Captain Philip Rissenger, accompanied ty ber three children (two girls and a boy), aged re spectively 9, G and 3 years, leaving ber home and walking up tbe tow-patb of the Union canal, and when near Gring's Mill, thiee miles north of the city, she deliberately walked into tbe canal and drowned herself and ber children. The bodies were recovered and brought to Reading for iutermeot. A despatch from Reading on the 21st, says relative to the funeral Tbe ut most excitement prevailed. For- an hour belore tbe time appointed for the funeral the houso was surrounded by au excited crowd, the excitement was so great that a detachment of police kept guard on the premises. The cir cumstances attending the death of tbe mother and children were such as to crate the strongest interest, which partakes largely of indignation. Bis singer is keeper of saloon in Reading and bis family consists as enumerated above. His niotber also made ber borne with bis family. Of late there has been considerable nnhappinesa, caused, tbe neighbors say, by the treat ment nf Mrs. Kissinger by ber busband and bis mother. The report common ly accepted is that Bissinger bad be stowed bis affections upon an unmarried woman from Philadelphia, whom be frequently bad at his house. On Mon day as it is stated, a quarrel topk place between husbaud and wife on tbie ac count, and be ordered her out of bis sight, lie told ber he would give her $2 000 to go away and return no more, she to take tho two girls aud he to keep tbe boy, and threatened to kill her if she returned. . This was great distress to her mind. On Tuesday, accompa nied by her three children, she left the bouse and entered street car, io which she rode rut of tbe city for tbe distance of about two aod bilf miles to a point on the biok of tbe canal. She bad a basket with ber, this she filled with stones, ter children assisting ber. Having filled the basket she bound it securely to ber waist, and then tak- ehild under each arm, and holding tbe tbird to Ler breast, she jumped into the canal. A man near by beard the cries of the children but not being able to swim be could give do help, and before be gathered help tbey were all drowned. The bodies were recov ered and removed to the boose of tbe husband, and be was notified of tbe occurrence, receiving tbe news, it i said, in the company of tbe party wbo bad erased tbe wnbappiness. So great was (be indignation among tbe people at large that a detachment of police was kept guarding the bonse of Bissinger until sfter the funeral. It is stated thai in the crowd :n attendanco at tbe funeral not less than fifty men, and even some women, were arrested with pistols for tbe avowed purpose of shooting Bissinger. He was guarded by tbe police all tbe way to the grave and back, and, as a further protection, tbe coffin containing the little boy's body was placed in the carriage with him. When tbe bodies bad been low ered into tbe graves part of the crowd booted at Bissinger. and a number of women tried to get at hint. One abot was fired at him without effect. He was then instantly bustled into bis car riage and driven off. Another shot was fired at bim while passing the gate, and is supposed to have struck bim, as he was carried from the carriage into the bouse. Great indignation still exists in the city, and Lynch law is freely talked of. Tbe crowd of people at tending tbe fuueral is believed to have numbered between 7,000 and 8,000. A shooting case, with a woman at tbe bottom of it, as tbe ease is reported from Newburg, New l'ork, on the 17th inst., is as follows : Robert Gibson, as sistant superintendent of tbe Newburg water works, attempted to murder Al fred Post, a prominent resident of New burg, and president of tbe Highland National Bank of Newburg, by firing a pistol at bim in the street. Tbe bullet grazed Post's neck, and Gibson aimed for a second shot, but in bis excitemeut failed to cock tbe weapon. Post got out of tbe way before Gibson could fire agaic, and tbe latter was secuied and committed without bail to await tbe action of the grand jury. Gibson and bis wife have not lived or. good terms lately, and she left bim several times for short periods, alleging harsh treat ment by her busband. Gibson charges that Post had something to do with his wife's leavicg him. This time tbe attempted swindle is on an accident insurance company, and is reported from Oswego, on the 17th inst., in the following language : Alex ander Queal, wbo obtained a three days' aocideut policy of $3,000 in tbe Hartford Accideut Company on June 21, and was reported drowned on tbe day following by two of bis compan ions, by the capsuing of a sail-boat, bas been arrested at Carthage, Jeffer son county. At th time of bis disap pearance be was io the employ of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Rkilroad Express Office in the above named place. This ugly story comes from Philadel phia : A well-known and wealthy mar ried man named John L. Kates was be fore a magistrate on the 19th inst., charged with a fiendish assault on a Miss Pemberton. It appears tbat Kates seduced her when she was about fifteen years old, and she claims that be bas held ber in a state of semi-slavery ever since. Recently she attended a pic nic without bis permission, and when she returned he charged ber with infidelity and knocked ber down and beat ber in a brutal manner, and then tore all tbe clothes off ber person, and after pour ing burning fluid over ber, set fire to ber and endeavored to burn ber alive. Tbe timely interference of some of tbe people of the house prevented the con summation of his design. On Friday evening previous, be whipped her in a brutal manner and swore that he would disfigure ber so that she would never be able to go out again. Kates was held io $2,200 bail for bis appearance at couit for trial. A State Convention of colored citi zens wis beld at Carlisle last week. By unanimous resolution the Republi can candidates, Haitranft and Rawle, were endorsed. A St. Louis paper, under date of the 17th inst., published this article : In Franklin county, Illinois, for some time past a body of men disguised in Ku Klux style have been traveling over the country, whipping peaceable citizens and compelling them to perform acts they d'.clated. Up to 'bis time, in both Williamson and Franklin counties, cit izens have calmly submitted to these outrages, but yesterday J. B. Maddox, one of tba county commissioners, re ceived information that some of these murderers would visit bis bouse and whip bim for not obeying orders tbey bad given him. Maddox informed Sheriff J. T. Mason, wbo summoned twenty men who secreted themselves at Msddock's bouse, well-armed. About two o'clock last night the Ku Klux, fourteen in number; made their appear ance on horseback, disguised in white robes, high white bats and masked, and armed with shot guns and pistols. The sheriff stepped out, when tbey came to the bouse and ordered them to sur render. The leader of tbe band drew Hts pistol and fired at the sheriff, but missed bim. The sheriff and posse then ordered a bait, when the band shot and then wheeled their horses and attempted to escape. The ptse fired and one man was mortally wonnded and five others injured, but all suc ceeded In getting away except tbe man wbo was fatally hurt. Tbe names of tbe others were revealed by the wonnd ed man wbo was captured, and the sher iff and posse are after them. Great excitement prevails, and tbe citizens are determined to rid the country of tbese marauders. A meeting was held by citizens to day and resolutions were adopted. Active measures are being taken to bring tbe outlaws to justice. Tbese desperadoes are said to bo about four bnndfed strong in tbe county. Gov. Boveridge bas sent one hundred stand of arms. A military company is being formed, and bloody results msy be ex pected. - ' "' .' Since the abore was put in type de spatches state that the band has been completely broken up. Many have been arrested, and many fled the county and State. Last Wednesday a frightful accident occured in Mksouri, on the St. Louis and Sl Joseph biancb of the St. Louis, Kacsas City and Northern railroad. As a train was passing over a dry branch, six miles south of Gov eu sta tion, in Clinton county, the structure gave way, precipitating the mail and express car and two passenger cars down a distance of twenty feet. Feeling the trestle giving way, tbe engineer put on all stiarc, and succeeded in runn ng bis engine safely over, breaki ig loose from the train. There were fifty or sixty passengers on tbe train, over forty of whom were injured. Only one was killed a man supposed to be E. J. Auglin, a salesman for J. Weili Bro., of St. Louis. Several others are likely to die from their injuries. Samuel Henry, of Cambria county, while passing from one car to another on tbe Pittsburg express, on tbe morn ing of tbe 19 th inst., missed a step and fell nnder tbe cars and was killed. Mr. Henry was a piominent young man. A man in Erie county was drenched with two gallons and a half of wbisky to aave him from the effects of a rattle snake's bite. Singularly enough be re covered. The Potter Enterprise says : Last week Chirlea Wykoff, of Sylvaoia, missed several head of sheep. After searching he found tbe bodies of seven where tbey bad been killed and par tially eaten by a bear. To get even with bis bearsbip, Mr. Wykoff salted three of tbe dead sheep with arsenic. Although bruin returned to finish bis meal yet tbe arsenic failed to have the desired effect. The bear bas been back several times, aud Mr. Wykoff intends to try strychnine on bim." Tbe State Fair will be held at Lan caster during tbe last week of Septem ber. Tbe gates will open on Monday, September 27th, at high noon, and the exhibition will continue through Mon day, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The books of entry will be closed one week before the time fixed for opening the fair, and all entries are free except tboso of horses entered for speed, which are charged the usual ten per cent. No piemiums will be awarded to reaping, mowing or sewing machines, or musical instruments. The gossiping community of Hunt ingdon, N. Y., bave been furnished with a choice morsel of scandal by tbe elopement of the wife of one of its wealthiest farmers, .Mr J. H. Fletcher, with a greenhorn employed by her bus band. Thomas Leahy entered the ser vice of Mr. Fletcher in the early part of May, having arrived from Ireland but a few months previously. He is a fine-looking, intelligent sort of a man, with a wealth of raven curls about his head, and a complexion tbat would ex cite th3 envy of a city belle. He was not long in gaining tbe entire confi dence of bis employer through bis in dustry and activity, and he was fre quently left in cbsrfjo of tbe farm during Fletcher's temporary absence from the town, some of which lasted for a week. Mrs. Fletcher, from tbe time of tbe greenhorn's advent to the domi cile, seemed always very solicitious for him ; but ber interest in Leaby was mistaken by ber husbaud for a just ap preciation for the man's sterling quali ties as a laborep. On Saturday week Mr. Fletcher left bis borne to be gone for a few days, and, as was his eustom, told Leahy to "look to things" until his retnrn. Returning unexpectedly tbe following night, at a lata hour, be was surprised to find Leahy occupying his place in Mrs. Fletcher's boudoir. A scene ensued during which Leaby made his escape from tbe enraged hus band and fled from tbe house. Mrs. Fletcher went, ou tbe following day, to ber sister's, where the remained until last Friday. Tbe following morning she left for Chicago in company with ber illicit lover, leaving behind ber three children aod an irate husband, and taking with ber $3,000, together with all tbat was at all valuable in tbe bouse. Leahy is only twenty-four years of age, while bis companion bas passed npward of forty-five summers.
