JOHN T. NOCRSE, Cftatrmaa.
Last Sunday night about 12 o'clock
ilrs. Johu Adaui?, and daughter, re
siding id Walker towusbip, were awak
ened by a libt streaming ioto their
bed room through a "door ajar." The
daughter inquired of a sister what oa
caponed the light. The inquiry call
revealed the cause, for it disturbed a
robber who was at work plundering
id the Louse. lie immediately fled
toward the stairway which leads to the
basement kitchen, in bis haste he lost
balance and fell beadtoiig down the
stairway outening the light that be
carried. He awakened mother and
daughter, and the thumping noise that
the tumbling retreat of tLe thief made
aroused the second daughter, a grand
daughter, and a son, Mr. A. S. Adams,
and brought them all to the first floor.
Mr Adams, and Miss Thompson, were
reckless euongh 10 rush down into the
kitchen without arms excepting a stick,
which Mr. Adams carried, and a chair,
which Miss Thompson took with her.
They were in time to d? liver a t-trose
at the thief as he took his exit from
the kitchen window. Thj opened
the door and gave pursuit, tLe burglar
glided around one side of the bouse,
while they hastened around the other j
aide of the bouse, and the robber and
the robbed met in the road in front of j
the building. 1
The thief was ordered to stop but he
would not, Mr. Aiani bad lost his
stick, but nr thing daunted, took up
the nearest natural weapon, a stone and
delivered ir, but unfortunately it did
Dot bring the thief to quarters. Miss
Thompson gave the fellow a few
tickling punches in the ribs with tbe
nnwieluy chair, and Mr. Adaois was
about to lay hold of the rascal as Le
till persisted io going toward tbe
wooded ridge north of the place, when
their movements were cut short by
tbe thief using the intimidating threat
"I'll shoot jou," which caused them
to molest bis escape no further. Hav
ing a clear road before him tbe burglar
ran speedily io the direction of the
woods. The Adams people who live
in three houses, not far from each oth
er were all aroused, and then the
discovery was made that tbe bouse of
Mr. Jacob Adams, had also been vis
ited by the thief. Pursuit was given
but in tbe darkness of the wood tbe
burglar was safe. Silver spoons were
taken from both houses, and a silver
watch owned by Mr. A. S. Adams was
also taken with other articles. On a
number of tbe spoons the initials I. R.
A. appear, on others the initials M. A.
appear. A reward will be paid for the
recovery of the stolen property. Mr.
A. Si Adams is of the opinion that
the thief is a foreign German tramp, as
tbe tone of voice, and figure of the
man, who was intercepted in the road,
and who there threatened to shoot if
not allowed to pass, was like tbe voice,
brogue, and figure of a tramp that bad
asked for something to eat oa Sabbath
morning
Whoever the thief was he had also
helped himself to victuals in tbe cellar
iTevious to going up stairs, as me iuu
ble around state of the provicions in
dicate. He was in such haste to get
awav, that be did not stop to take np
bis bat which fell eff when he came oat
of tbe kitchen window.""'
Theii is a good deal of talk now as to
the current value of what is known as the
Trade Dollar. It was originally minted for
the trade between this country and China.
The dollar of the Jackson Democrats, as
they used to like to call themselves twenty
years ago, has 7J grains ot silver less than
the Trait Dollar. The dollar of the "dad
dies," or the Bland dollar, as it came to be
tailed last winter, when it was again made a
legal tender, has 412 grains, being less than
the trade coin, w hich baa 420 grains. With
in the past eight days, a number of business
tuen have refused to take the Trade Dollar
for more than 90 cents. Ninety cents is
what they wish to pay for It- It is said that
certain telegraph lines will take them at 90
cents; certain prominent business places
throughout the country take them at 90 eU.,
certain others take them at 95 cents, and
others at 99 cents. One of the leading
banking houses in the Commonwealth issued
the following last week relative to the dis
count on silver:

Editor Sentinel tnd Republican
Doar Sir, It is becoming; notorious
that those who through disreputable
practice have been brought into dis
repute among their fellow-men are at
all tiuica ready with whatever means
be it the base insinuation, the in
genious falsehood, or the glaring lie
to pull down those who rank above
them in honor or integrity, to the
same depthB of degradation to which
they themselves have -descended.
Thus the editors of the Democrat and
Register, in their last issue, endeavor
to cast reproacu upon the Republi
can return judges whom the people
chose to represent them in conven
tion, to count and declare the Tote
cast at their primary election, by de
claring that the returns were all ma
nipulated in Will back-room, and
the will of the party thus frustrated.
The editors of the paper just men
tioned have so long been subservient
to the will of their master, the Dem
ocratic rinr. that thev are ntUrl
unable to realize how it is possible
ror men engaged in any kind of polit
ical duty to be honest So long have
they been wallowing in the cess-pool
of political debauchery, suppressing
the crier, fan outrao-e.l
obeying the behests of the master
they serve in every kind of political
jobbery, that their existence in their
11 -a .
nnnaiiowea atmosphere has become
to tbem a kind of a kmv.h.1 ntnr.
and they are scarcely to be blamed.
Beimr so far from honor themselves.
they cannot comprehend the neces
sity ior it existing m others.
The facts are these : Thn ntir
eighteen judges did meet at the hotel,
ana alter enecung a temporary or
franisation. nroceeded to select offi
cers for the convention ; to consider
certain amendments which were after
wards directed to be nresented to th
people tor tueir acceptance or rejec
tion, ana to consiaer tne selection of
a chairman for the County Commit
tee. This and thn snnnint.mpnl. nf
some committees, and the naming of
delegate to the State Convention was
done. Xot a Kino-l rtnrn from hiv
district in the county was exhibited
n caucus, cor were the returns
ipoken of or mentioned until we met
a open convention in the Court
House. And therefore with thn re
turns in the tivket nf tl-.A inlo-
there could have been no manipula
tion. o, there was not a 6ingle
member of the eighteen return iud?es
who even enjoyed a year a experience
1 - . 1 - A I 1 -1 ,1
as a cierk. iu me --mentor uenerai s
office of Pennsylvania, under a Dem
ocratic chief.
Desperate indeed must be the case
of the Dem.jciacy. when they com
mence the campaign with misrepre
sentation and falsehood. With indig
nation and disdain we cast back upon
its authors this first Democratic cam
paign lie. Yours truly,
ti. Y. WLLSUN.
Tbompsostowx, Aug. 24, 18T8.
Editor Sentinel and Republican Dear S ir,
We noticed in the last issue of the Demo
crat and Register an article charging the
return judges of the Republican party with
having met in Will's back room, and then
and there nominating Mich rren suited
the individuals present; and it even aays
they changed tbe returns so as to count out
Je.se -N'.)b fur Prothonotary, and Jacob
Thomas lor Treasurer. Now, as one of the
men cotiijio.in the body aliove referred to,
we come out boldly and deny every word of
the accusation made in the Democrat and
Register. It is a falsehood f the deepest
dye, gotten up by parties to create trouble
and destroy the harmony which now exists
in the Republican ranks, atd they Ko use
it as capiii.1 to tight the Mercer or Crawford
Connty System of nominating candidates, to
which tbey are bitterly opposed. They feel
that to give the honest Democrats of this
county the right to vote direct for the can
didates, instead of voting fur delegates,
wuuld be dealt to such as they, and the
resurrection day is far distant. Again we
ssy the article above mentioned is an infa
mous lie, gotten np to breathe out some of
the corruption of which they are over
stocked. Yours truly,
J. P. WICKERSHAM.
COMMCNICAT10N.
Editor Sentinel and Republican! Some
fifty years ago or more the yellow fever
raged in all iu fury and was very fatal io
N'cw Orleans. In those days there were no
steamboats or railroads. Produce was car
ried on the Ohio au'd Mississippi rivers in
what were then called flat-bottomed boats, 1
which required several mn to manage.
After the cargo was disposed .f, the men
traveled home on foot for hundreds ol miles.
There were many of these crafts on the
water, going down to New Orleans to mar
ket, and some of them refused to continue
their trip when they were told by those who
were returning home, of tbe sad condition
of the New Orleans ptoplo houses closed,
city half deserted, and tbe principal busi
ness on the streets being funerals. One old
boatman said he could and would provide
a remedy against the attack of the epidemic.
So the crew to which he belonged ran their
craft to an island, and all gathered their
pockets full of garlic, of which each one
ate a little occasionally through the day. as
a preventive. That boat's crew stayed sev
eral days in New Orleans, and all came
home sale and well. The man from whom
tbe writer of this communication obtained
the above information said be was one of
that crew. I think it is a proper time to
publish this, so that tbe traveler and others
may, where there is any danger of being
contaminated, secure the vegetable and use
it as a preventive.
TACITCS.
The Democrat and Rcgater is dreadfully
exercised over the probable adoption of the
Crawford County System for the holding of
the primary election, by the Democracy in
this county, which is just what that party
should do. It is fearfully exercised, and
everything that can be used to throw
disfavor on the efforts that the Democracy
are making to adopt the system, the Demo
crat and Register makes use of. Last week
it published an article from the Carlisle
Volunteer, against the change. It charges
that the Crawford Connty Systemdebaucies
mm men. makes drunkards of them.
People here in Mifflin laugh at tbe use of
such an argument. The very opposite is
the case. Hundreds of people in this place
can be called who will tell ttat tne greauMii
day lor liquor drinking in thi puce Known
in many years was the day of the meeting
of the Democrats County Convention, held
under the old Delegate Sytlem. Tbere was
no drunkenness or debauchery on the day
of the meeting of the Republican return
judge. The boot is on the ether leg, and
it is not understood why tbe Democrat and
Remitter snould blunder on a question
which is so clear to all who were in this
place when the respective conventions set.

ereigns and other coins all dated previous

which they divided between them, amount
ed to several thousand dollars. It is sup
posed that all this money was deposited in

The Democracy pronounced the green

redemption will be destroyed, and then tbe
money will be worthless.

No act of Congress awakened so great a
feeling of contempt among the people as
the "Back Salary Act." Mr. Specr, who
was in Congress, not on ly favored the mea
sure, but he took the " b.ick salary ;" and
now a certain clique of bis party have suc
ceeded in putting him at the head nf the
State organization as Chairman of the Dem
ocratic State Central Committee. How
much reform can there be in a " back salary
grabber," or in any relorm measures that be
may propose. The people are not so blind
as to follow so blind a reformer. As a g:n
tleinan Mr. Spe r is pleasant enough, bat
how pleasant w is Satan when be beguiled
ibe first parens.
Tbe charge of the Democrat and Remitter,
that the return ju !gcs cheated Tbetias anl
Grubb out of the nomination, by changing
certain return papers, is entirely unworthy
of men who make acy pretension to being
men of reliability and truth. Of course, il
what they chtrged is true, it is right that
they should tell it, and the rascal who would
do such an act should be exposed, so that
he may be shunned by honest people. The
Democrat and Regitfer is therefore called on
to make good its charge. It owes it to
itself to lell. 1 1 it does not make the
charge good by proving it, its false testi
mony will bring down on it a penalty which
never fails to visit the false witness sooner
or later. It owes it to the Return Judges
to make g-wd its charge, for they were men
of character, as a body, and if a J a las got
among them and betrayed Lis trust, they
will not allow tlicniielveg to be huniitiat'd
by his work. Will the Democrat and Rem
itter come to the front and freely vindicate
its ewn good name, as clearly as it made
the charge ? Come, now, be men or no
men. II the Democrat and Register is nsing
such a charge to keep its people from adopt
ing the Crawford County System, and its
arguments should be grounded on a false
charge, the record will be exceedingly un
pleasant for those who made it. If the
charge should prove true, the system is not
affected by the bad work ; only the men
who engaged in crooked work are injured.
Tb Newport Ledger says that J. C. Leo
nard has the contract for removing the
bones from an old burying ground on W. S.
Staiubaugh's farm, (the old Leiby place,)
just east of Newport, to tbe new cemetery.
Mr. S. having purchased a lot in that city of
the dead in which to inter them. The old
citixena of this community remember this
burying ground ; but for the last forty years
there have been no persons buried there.
Very few of the remains have been un
earthed. Aside from a stray bone or skull
here and there, nothing has been found.
There were no marble slabs or stones erected
to mark the last resting place of the persons
buried there. Mr Stambaugh desires to
use the ground for farming purposes, hence
the removal.
