On Friday at 10 o'clock a. ., the case, commonly known as the B jrongh Ballot Box Case," came up before Squire London. It is an action against the election board to iind out who stole the ballots and election papers lliat were put in the box that was used at the February election. Lawyers, Parker, Lyons, and Stone were pro-sent, to conduct the case for the respec tive parties. David Watts was the first witness called. He saiii I hare lived in .MlWntown about twelve years. I voted at the February election, at the polling place in town. On the uiornina; of the contesting election I heard thai the bllot-bas had been broken open i that was the first knowledge that I bad of the robbery of the box. I saw the box at the Court House, at the February election. I never saw the box after tlu vote had been put io ; I saw a list of names of ruen who voted ; Robert Parker showed it to uie ; I tbiuk he got it in the Prothon otary's othee ; he said it was a copy as fiL-d in the office; I d m't know whether it bad those who voted on age, or on tax, marked ; don't recollect that t saw the word age' on the list. When the election contest was talked of be said we would examine it, the I'st ; it was in a book similar to the one that Squire Parker had. I saw the came ot Janies Uobiuson ; it was talked that he was r.ot a legal voter, on accouut ot age ; he was said to be an illegal voter I renumber that was said of hiui j I do not remember that the word ape was opposite' his name. McCleiUn and 1 talktd ot the right of Rob inson to vote ; I do not renumber telling lucCiellau that the word 'age' Was Opposite Robiuson's luuc I dou't kr.ow that 1 told him so ; if I told hiui, 1 mast have gut it from some one ; that is, I uu have heard it trora some ore; 1 did not see it on the paper ; if I said so I don't know where I got the information from. Kobert Parker told rue who he surmised votici. I do not know how leople voted; 1 Deveraaw a list ; I do not know how the box was opened ; have, no suspicions. A little list of illegal voters was made out; Squire Parker had it ; it was in Hubert Parker's ha id-writing ; I I had it in my hands and looked over the book. Squire Parker said be gut the list in the Frotlionotary 'a office. Xo one to'd me bow people voted at the February election. I was in the office frequently ; I waa iu the vault iu the winter previous to tne election in February; I did not know where the box was kept ; I never saw any of the ballots ; I may have seen a box similar to the ballot bv, on the morning of the last election. I have said nothing that will impeach the board ; I have no suspicions against them, i never aaw the contents of the box. I said I would like t.- look into the box ; I was so surprised a' the result the February elec tion that I sjid I would like to look into the box ; I said so on the morning after the election. In Showers' shop 1 said I am surprised at the result of the election, and that I'd give $5.00 to see in the box, if I did not feel to poor. I beard others say that they would like to look into the box, but I never asked any one to look into it. I cannot now name any one who said that they would give something to look into the box. I was surprised that Fs-ker was betten ; it was a tie vote, which I thought was equal to a defeat- I knew the boxes were in Mr. Musscr's charge. People surmised how some people voted. I know how they made the surmised lis! ; they eat down and Lamed such ani such jeople as would vote this or that way. I voted for Parker; I did not vote the straight Democratic ticket; I never asked anybody how to vote. A. J. Patterson was sworn. lie said I am a un-mW of the bar. I have the privi leges of the offices in the Court Uonse. I don't remember that I was in the vault of the Register's office between the spring elections ; I knew that the election boxes were kept in the vault ; I knew that they were there by reason of the order of Court. On the morning of the March election 1 first learned of the opening of the box. I have no recollection of being asked as to the law against such outrages as the open ing of scaled ballot-boxes. I beard rn mors as to how people voted. I h ive no knowl edge, suspicion, or belief as to how, or by whom the box was opened ; if I bad such knowledge I would cheerfully disclose it. I have not been consulted as to the penalty for breaking the box open ; I said I would help ferret it out. No one said to me, what tbey would testify to. Mr. Musser spoke of w ho had been in the office ; I rec ollect him mentioning Judge Elder's name, and the name of Mr. Parker and myself as Laving been in the office between the two elections. I approve of the efforts to find or discover the guilty parties. I do not know how any one voted excepting myself; I did not vote the whole Republican ticket. John Heck was sworn. He said I voted at the two spring elections. I do not know where the box was kept ; I did not see the box before the el-cuon, or at any time be tween the elections ; I have never been in the vault ; no one told me how such and such people voted ; never saw a list of voters. I do not know anything about the opening of the box ; I heard a general talk about it ; I have been in the outside room of the Register's office ; I havi- never been in the vault ; I voted at the March election. I don't know that I offered to bet that the robbery of the box would never be found ont ; it may be I said that it will be like the Bring of the town, which has never been found out ; I hardly know why I said so. Brodie Crawford was sworn. He said I to .Ad at lue two elections in the spring; 1 do not now know where the boxes were kept; I never saw the box between the elections. Mr. Books was the first person who told me of the opening of the box; tat was on the day of the second election. I beard suhdUl-j as to how ptople voted ; never heard of a list of voters ; I never hear! of any one that wanted to look into the box. 1 gave do advice, and never de clared it to be no offense to break open the box. I beard parties say how other voted ; Suloutf told me that Joba Heck had con-fe-d to hirn that be had voted for Haller the first time. D. B. Doty was sworn. He said I voted at the two spring elections. E. S. Parker and I were auditors of the Loan Associa tion .counts, aud audited the accounts in ft office of Mr. Vnswr. It was after the closing of the poll, of February elecVion i wm,w nowtng of the box or iu content. Sheriff Walls was swora. He sald-I re ski. io the jail; that is any placa of rest dencer I hava lived there over two tM,. since Janaary, 1877, I am High Sheriff of uis county j i frequently am called into the Register's officer I have not been in the vault since the February election, except ing on the morning of the March election, after the discovery waa made of the break ing open or the ballot-box and the robbery of its contents, when Mr. Musaer showed me where (be box waa kept. I never raw the box or ballots ; heard a list or Voters talked of; never heard anything as to how people voted, excepting a supposition. I have not the least suspicion or knowledge as to who opened the box ; I have no sus picion that would lead to a clue, that would lead to the arrest of any one. I heard aiip positions as to how people voted ; cannot recall the remarks of people who supposed bow others voted caunot give names ; the talk was in general conversation. I do not know how any one voted at ths February election ; I know nothing, directly or indi rectly, as to who took the ballots j I do not suspect the boa.d. E. I. Parker waa sworn. He said I have no recollection ot being in the vault be tween the spring elections, or to the pres ent day, or any other time previous, with out being accompanied ; I knew that by order of Court tbe election boxes were kept there. I Cist beard of tne opening of the box on the morning of the last election. I have no kuoa ledge, whatever, of the opening or the box, excepting by such evi dence as has been n ceived here by the J us-t-.ce- I was once in the Register's office alone w ith Mr. Okeson, for the purpose of consultation ; I had received permission ! from Mr. Musser to rise the office as a place to consult iu. In never touched the box ; I know nothing, directly or ir.directly,ofhow, or by whom the box was broken open. I never tjld any one that I believed the board had broken the box open. I advised the prosecutiuu of the board with the object of finding out who broke the box open aud took away its contents. James Deen was sworn. He said I bad been desk to the Commissioners for a num ber of years ; I bad an office in the Court House, across from the Register's oflioo ; I was frequently in tbe Register's office; 1 was not in the vault between the two elec tions ; I never exaiui.ied the b-x in which the ballots were kept. I havo ne knowl edge of who broke the box open ; I did not do it ; I know of no list ; I bare ao knowl edge or suspicion as to who opened tbe box. I know the box was ordered in the Register's office by the Court. 1 never heard that the box would te rifled ; I have beard that on previous occasions tbe box bad been rifled, or broken open. At this point lawyer Parker proposed to adjourn, unless persons w bo had been sum moned ss witnesses desired to testify. Mr. Amos G. Bocsall stepped forward and said, that as he had been summoned to appear as a witness, he desired to go on the record. Amos S. Bonsall was sworn. Be said I live in this town ; I voted at the February election ; I did not see the ballot-beX after that election till at tbe March election ; I did not know where the box was kept ; I never saw tbe contents of the box ; 1 never heard of any oue that saw the tickets that were in it; 1 never beard any one tell of a list of voters that was in the box ; I was never asked about the penalty against open ing a ballot-box that had been sealed ; I have no knowledge, directly or indirectly, that would lead to tbe suspicion of any one ; I first beard of the robbery of the box On the day of the March election. I did not know that the box was kept in the Register's of fice. I seldom go to that office; I have not been in the vault since the Court House was built. I know nothing of a list ; I know nothing, directly or indirectly, about the box or couteuts. Jacob Beidler was sworn. He said I was Prothonotary of the county last term, till last January. I voted at the February elec tion ; I knew that the box was kept in the Register's office ; I never saw tbe box be tween the elections ; I never saw any of the papers that bad been in the box ; I was never told of how the tjtes in the box stood. Mr. Stone aud I talked about t'le robbery in a general way, and about the election. I heard surmises as to how peo ple voted. Books told me he had a curios ity to know how people voted. I never told any one bow people voted ; I never accused the board ; I suspicion no one. L. E. Atkinson was sworn. He sail I am a member of the bar ; I have the privi leges of the Conrt House offices ; I did not know that the election boxea were kept in the Register's office till after the robbery of the box was made annwa to the puMic ; I have no recollection of being in the vault j between the election in February and th j election in Mavch ; wb n I go into the vault I have the ccmpany of the Register ; I did not oDeu the box : never touched it ; have ! no suspicion of who opened it. I was conn- j sel for 11. Her when it was proposed to con test the election ; Mr. Lyons was counsel with uie. I never remarked to Haller that the box should he open. In a consultation with Mr. Lyons, it was concluded that if it could be demonstrated or proven that illegal votes bad been polled we could get a cue for Court. We pro grease 1 so far in the steps toward a contest in the Conrt as to the drafting of a petition. The petition was put into the hands of Haller. After that, in consultation w ith i!r. Lyons, we egreH to not present the petition to Court. Tbe prosecution waa not abandoned because of any information relative to the breaking open of the ballot-box. I.'aller said that be discovered that he had not paid a tax in two years. Alter he told that, we looked upon bis vote as a questionable one in a legal sense. Vv"e concluded that if n illegal vote on the other side was rejected, and Bailer's vote waa rejected the case would be a b dance, a tie, as it had been ; and that is v.hy we abandoned the case or contest. Tbe legal question that would arise iu re gard to Haller's vote led to the abandon ment of the contest before the Conrt I have no knowledge of my own, or that 1 received from my colleague in i e coutest, or frorr any other person, relative to the owning of the box or tha taking out of the ballots or papers. Wuliara J. .'acknian was sworn. He said 1 voted at the February election; be tween thai aud the Match election I don't remember that I was in tba vault of the Reg ister's office. About 10 o'clock on the day of the March e'.ection I heard that the box s- tnmn had been broken open. I did not open the box ; I was not present when it was opeued ; I never betrd sny one say who owned it. I know of no list excepting tbe one that Robert Parker bad ; I had no knorledge of a list of how people voted ; I never beard any one say as to how such and such people voted ; I have no knowl edge as to how people voted that was ob tained from those who broks the box open. I saw Parker's Ust after the contest had been begun; he had it in a littl book; I think it was a list of those be wished to MaaasasaiasasaasBssassa Contest on. ! heard how parties wtre sup- voted; I oannot recall names; posed to hare uemru parties remark, but cannot tell whose Barnes were mentioned.

South Uarrisburg, tbe engi neer noticed tbe body of a man lying alongside tbe track, and be accordingly gave notice when the train .reached the depot. Tbe remains, whieb were fear fully mangled, were picked np and taken to the dead bouse at fhe depot and Cor oner Porter was notified of tbe circum stance. -j Io the pockets of deceased's clothes was found a pocket-book with a small sum of inon?y and aeversl black checks of Central Banking LV Port Royal, Juniata couuty, l'a., and some other papers, which led to the discovery that tbe man was Samuel Stem, aged about 72 years, a well kouwn tanner, residing near Waterford, Juniata county. Pa. Tbe injuries, upon an examination of be coroner, eousisted of tbe mangling of tbe left leg as far up as tbe knee, dislocation of the shoulder, fracture of tbe skull, loss of one of tbe foes, be sides having other bruises on tbe body. The jury, after having been qnal.fied by the coroner, rendered a verdict " That the deceased came to bis death by being struck by a train on tbe Pena lty It mia railroad." From one of fhe courteous employees of the Pennsylvania railroad company a Patriot reporter gleaned tbe following facts : Mr. Stem was tbe owner and propri etor of a large tannery (which bad not been running for sonic time past) Iocs ted near tha thriving town of Water ford, in tbe J uniata valley, say eigh teen or twenty miles from .iiiBintown. He left home last Tuesday for tbe par pnse of attending tbe tanners' couvn tion at Philadelphia on Wednesday. After the convection bad adjourned Mr. Stem purchased a stock ot bidfs and ktarted for bome the same ngut in com pany with a merchant from the village of JohnslowD, Juniata county, named Joseph Deerina, oo tbe Pcitio express, lie bad stated to Mr. Peering that be intended remaining in Uarrisburg over, night, and taking the way traiu for borne on Thursday. The theory as to the cause of tbe shocking and mysterious acoident seems to be this : When the train reached tbe point where tbe accident took place tbe man must bare been awakened from a nsp cr sleep by tbe brakeman calling j out "Harrisburg ;" that, probably, itu j agining the train vas nbout pasting through or had left th citr. he leaped from the steps of the car i'i half awake condition, and that ! t.;-, most likely, struck by t' fast tiu going east, (wbiob passes tbe Pacific express frequently at, or i- 'ar this point ) Mr. Stem was a man of cou.iderab!e wealth, and leaves a wife and married daughter to runurn over hi) sad fate. His daughter is married to D. li.

I!is remains were brought to this place on Wednesday and interred in Union Ceruitery oo lbursday. Tbe Alioona Tribune of the 10th inst. re lates the pailiculars of the accident that resulted iu bis death, as follows : About 12 o'clock on Tuesday bight Snuuei Ebbfrt, a freight brakeman on lb? middle division, met wi:h an acci dent at Tyrone wiiich cost hiui bis life five bonrs afterward. The crew were engaged in sbiftirg rut some cars for that poiut, and Eoberts ci"t tbe train for that purpose. Tbe engineer was signaled to go forward and then to came back. Kbberts was on tbe platform of I he car to which tbe tender was coupled, from which be waa kuocked off by the force of tbe concussion. Tbe tender ran over Lim. breaking bis right leg be tween tbe ankle sod knee joiut and bis left arm in two places. He also was severely cut about the bead and sus tained bruises on the chest and one thigh. He was drawn out from under tbe tender by one of his fellow-train men, conveyed to the depot aud tuedi- 1 1 ...... t . .

Cor oner Humes beld au inquest over tba body, when the jury returned a verdict that bis dsath was purely accidental, no blame attaching to any one. Train master Cramer, of this city, states that Kbberts was " a Erst class young man and general favorite with his com rades on the road as well as with tbe officials." It was a ea'f, still night, a soft sir placing caressingly witb the tresses of a lovely girl, and tbe noon shed its gen tle ray over the raJiant brow of btr lover. Her small Lrothcr, meanwhile, jnst borne for tbe holidays, was acci dentally watidenog in quest of a bat in tbe neighborhood, wbeu be beard tbe voices of bis sister and her betrothed.
