AUDITOR GENERAL,

OF BLAIR COIXTT.
Oxe of the great questions of the
day is what caused the wheat in Penn
sylvania to ripen ten days earlier than
ever before.
General Hancock, when he does
not attend Mrs. Hancock to preach
ing, goes to the Episcopal church.
Mrs. Hancock ia an Unitarian.
One of tbe doctors in this county
lits a patient on whom a surgical oper
ation has been performed, and upon
whom tbe operation of tkin grafting is
also being tested.
A iiaci. of counterfeiters was made
near Erie, Fa., a few days ago. Tbe
names of tbe men are John Davis, John
Monk, three Beach brothers, John
Phinnase aud John Shago.
The greatest sheep show ever beld
on this continent will be opened in tbe
Main CeiitenDial Exhibition Building
in Philadelphia, next autumn, immedi
ately after the close of tbe State Fait.
A New York doctor Dr. Tanner
is now on a fa.st of forty days, lie be
gan the fast at 2 o'clock p. M., June
'2$. On the 9th day be took tbe first
water, four ounces. Ou tbe 14th day
be Lad lost 21 i pounds.
' Mas. De Grout, who has built a
church in Newark, X. J., at her own
expense, lias had a clause put in the
deed to the effect that if fairs, festi
vals or other entertainments are held
therein the property shall revert to
the original owner."
The nomination of Hancock Las
inspired the bull-dozers of the South.
Already they have begun their work
of intimidation, breaking tip Repub
lican meetings. At Montgomery,
Alabama, several efforts were made
to hold Garfield and Arthur ratifica
tion meetings, but the bull-dozers
broke up the meetings.
Senator Hoar, at the Boston Gar
field ratification meeting : I think I
have heard that when the rebel pick
ets were in a close place and the fire
grew hot, they used to think some
times they could stop the firing by
sticking up alongside of a tree the
uniform of a Union soldier. And
that is their plan of this campaign."
The French government has closed
the churches of tbe Catholic order of
Jesuits. The thirty years war in Eu
rope was started through the closing of
two churches in Germany in 1618. Tbe
churches that were closed were Prot
estant churches. When tbe Protest
ants manifested a determination to
worship in tbe closed churches, the
buildings were torn down.
KeaI'-xetites and Democrats each
held a meeting on the Sand Lots, in
California a few days ago. The
meetings were held a little distance
apart. The Kearneyites became of
fensive. The Democrats raised the
shout, 'Hang Kearney!" and. made
a rush to get him. The police hur
ried Kearney into a carriage and
drove Liui away from the 6cene.
The Democracy bold up their hands
and 6ay, " Don't talk about the war ;
don't mention the rebellion ; that is a
dead issue." But how tricky tbeir pro
test appears in the light of tbe fact that
they have put man at tbe bead of
tbeir ticket who won bis fame on tbe
field of battle. What! forget a war,
when tbe reputation of tbeir candidate
was made by tbe war ! But such is the
inconsistency of the Democracy.
Thev have opened the campaign
down South, as may be learned from
the Mississippi i'fVir, a Democratic
paper. The Star says : " Inaugurate
social ostracism against every white
man north or south who gives Lis
support to the building up of the
Republican party ; discountenance
any man who will go on or assist in
making the bond of any man elected
on the Republican ticket ; refuse to
Lave dealings of any sort with the
Republican party, and show to the
world that you are in truth and deed
a true Democrat."
The Democratic platform declares
in favor of a tariff for revenue only,
and that means free trade. They
must be accorded the credit of Lav
ing told the truth this time. The
history of Democracy clearly tells
that iu the Polk campaign the Dem
ocracy deceived the people. They
declared that they were for Polk and
the tariff of 1842, and that Polk
would prove as good a tariff man as
Clay, but just so soon as Polk was
warm, or comfortably seated in the
Presidential chair he turned out to be
a revenue tariff man, a free-trader,
and the Democratic Congress acted
with him, and the tariff laws were
repealed and the manufacturing in
dustries of tbe country prostrated.
Now, however, the Democracy do
not come with a, double tongue on
the tariff question, and if the manu
facturing interests, and the people
who believe in American manufactur
ing interests yote for the Hancock
party they need not whine when
sweeping free trade laws are enacted
by Congress. The man who believes
in protection to American manufae
tors cannot consistently vote for the
Democratic Hancock party. If you
are a free trader, the Democratic
party is th party for yon. If you
area protectiosi.st, the Republican
party is tLo party or you.
Hancock's pedigree in America is
Puritan or Yaukee throughout. He is
tbe fifth etan of ibe line iu this country.
First there was a John Hancock,
Puritan or Yankee preacher, ia Massa
chusetts. Second ther was a John, also a Pu
ritan or Yankee preacher.
Third there was a John, a Puritan or
Yankee politician, tbe Jobu Hancock
signer of tbe Declaration of Indepen
dence in 17 76.
Fourth there was a Benjamin Han
cock, farmer and lawyer in Montgom
ery county, Pennsylvania.
Fifth there is General W. S. Han
cock, Democratic- candidate for tbe
Presidency.
If tbe Yankee preachers, and politi
cian could return to earth and talk to
the General, be doubtless would receive
such a lecture from bi vuoestors that
be would resign tbe position of a can
didate for tbe Presidency in the in
terest of tbe chieftans of tbe Lost
Cause. If there was. anything in this
wotld above another that the Puritan or
Yankee preacher disliked, it was No
bility aud Slavery. They looked npon
Slavery as a league with tbe Devil and
a covenant with IlelL But tbe Puritan
preachers and politicians are now lost
iu tbe champion of tbe Lost Cause.
Some one at Hariisburg has written
to a New York paper, proponing to Ji
vide tbe State of Pennsylvania. The
hue of division, as proposed, is tbe
Susquehanna "from the Maryland line
to Lycoming eounty, and trout that
point to tbe New Y'ork State line tbe
boundaries between Lycoming and Tioga
on the one side and Potter and Clinton
on the other, will be tbe line that is to
separate tbe two States."
New Y'ork is a strange place from
which to start a feeler as to bow tbe
project of dividing the State will take.
As tbe question of a division of a State
will be a question for both Congress
and tbe Legislature to act on, tbe candi
dates for Congressional and Legislative
favors may witb propriety be asked be'
fore the election how they will act if
they succeed to an election.
Tbe probability is that tbe people of
tbe State, when they get to considering
tbe question, will put their foot on it.
Tbey do not want to work to pay for
two Governors, two Legislatures and
two sets of governmental State ma
chintry.
Two million dollars stock is being
raised by New York capitalists, to be
used for the erection of a museum
building iu New York city. Tbe cor
poration will be called tbe Barnum
Museum Company, with P. T. Barnum
as President and General Manager. It
will be tbe grandest enterprise of the
kind in tbe world. Tbe building will
occupy tbe entire block bounded bv
Madison street and Fourth avenue,
'IClh and 27th streets, opposite Fifth
Avenue Hotel. Tbe floor room in tbe
Museum building will embrace eleven
acres. The lower story will be known
as tbe toiiosscum, size of room 200 by
400 feet, for circus races, political and
religious meetings. The first floor,
size 200 by 42o feet, will be tbe opera
house, theatre, xc. The second and
third floors are of tbe same size as tbe
first, and will be used fur the museum
proper. The wonders of tbe world will
be collected there. Tbe fourth floor
ill be laid owt iuto a vast Tropical
Garden, to be planted in tbe choicest
trees, flowers and vines of the Orient.
The observatory will be 250 feet high,
and will be lighted at night, rrom it
a magnificent outlook across the city
may be bad. It is a wonderfnl enter
prise that tbe company have entered
upon.
A number of Democrats liave ex
pressed an uneasiness for the fate of
the Government in case Garfield
should die in office. They say that
Arthur Las not the courage to ad
minister the eovernmint if he be
comes PresideuL The following,
from a New York paper, is to the
point, of Arthur s courage :
Early in the war a New Y'ork des
perado, named Billy Wilson, raised a
regiment of roughs, who refused the
government rations provided for vol
unteers, and were in the habit of
taking whatever they wanted iu the
restaurants of the City Hall neigh
borhood where they were quartered,
without paying a cent Governor
Morgan ordered Arthur, as Quarter
master General, to stop Billy Wilson's
men's bad conduct. Authur sum
moned Billy to Lis office, and spoke
to him on the subject. Wilson an
swered : "Neither you nor the Gov
ernor Las anything to do with me,
for I am a colunel in tho United
States service, I am, and you've no
right to order me." Arthur informed
him that he was not a colonel yet,
because Lis regiment was not full,
and no commission Lad been issued.
'Well, Ire got my shoulder straps
on," said BJ ly, -aud as long as I wear
them I don't tike any orders from
you fellows." Said Arthur: "We'll
make short work of your shoulder
straps," as he seized tLe offender,
tore off Lis straps, threw him into a
chair, and ordered Lim under arrest
One wLo claims to know all about
the nomination of Hancock, writes :
"But for the unexpected strength
which was developed for Hancock in
the Cincinnati convention on the first
ballot on Wednesday afternoon, the
platform presented to the convention
would Lave Lad in it a plank 6trongly
antagonizing the army. The com
mittee on platform were unable to
agree in their work, the squabble be
ing so bitter and determined that
they were not able to report before
balloting commenced. Hancock's
unexpected strength on the first bal
lot took the committee by surprise,
but at their meeting on Wednesday
night the anti-army resolution was
stricken out, and the insult that was
to have been put npon Sherman, Sher
idan, Hancock and ail the other brave
men of the army was left out of tLe
platform, This incident is given on
good authority. Is anything more
needed to prove the Lypocrisy, dou-ble-facedness
and insincerity of tLe
Democratic party T"
The reader, dorbtless, baa a dis
tinct recollcctiuu that a few weeks
ago two American ships were over
hauled by a 6hij carrying the Span
ish flag. TLe Washington govern
ment asked tLe Spanish government
for an explanation of the outracra
The answer is that no Spanish ship
has been sent on a mission such as
Las been pursued by tLe one that
overhauled the American vessels.
The conjecture now is that the Tessel
was a pirate.
The Pittsburg Commercial says :
"If Hancock is not a Pennaylfanian,
to what State should Le liroperly be
credited ?' An answer to this Las
been already given. In yesterday's
paper we stated that, although a na
uve oi jretonsylvania, he is and has
long been a citizen of Missouri. He
married there thirty years ago, and.
is now credited on the army rolls as
belonging to that State. It would
have been false and absurd for the
Democrats to have claimed Jackson
as a North Carolinian, or for the Re
publicans to have put Lincoln up as
a Kentuckian ; and it is just as ridi
culous for tho Democrats to claim
Hancoc't as a Peunsylvanian. It is
worse uan ridiculous. It is a glar
ing falso pretense, and one which
Hancock should scorn to sanction.
It is well understood why this false
claim is made in his behalf. It was
fitting that the Union General and
the "soldier statesman" should hail
from a Northern State One of the
greatest objections to taking np Bay
ard was the fact that Le would be
credited to tLo South. So, in order
to screen as largely as possible the
real purpose of the rebel brigadiers
in selecting a tool like Hancock, they
found it convenient to credit him to
Pennsylvania, which Le left wLen sis
teen years of age, rather than to
Missouri, where he has had Lis Lome
and citizenship ever since early man
hood. "One of General Garfield's staff
says that a fugitive slave with bleed
ing head came in Kentucky once, hot
ly pursued by a planter. The divi
sion commander, who believed in the
fugitive slave law, wrote an order to
Brigadier-General Garfield to Lunt
up and deliver tLe negro, wLo was
Lid in Garfield's command. Garfield,
on receiving tLe order, wrote on the
back: 'I respectfully but positively
decline to allow my command to
search for or deliver up any fugitive
slaves. I conceive that they are here
for quite another purpose. The com
mand is open, and no obstacles will
be placed in the way of search.' The
messenger told Garfield he was afraid
he would be court-mart ia'ed for dis
obedience of orders. The General
replied : The matter may as wed be
tested first as last Right is right,
and I do not propose to mince mat
ters at all. My soldiers are here for
other purposes than hunting and re
turning fugitive slaves. My people,
on the Western Reserve of Ohio, did
not send my boys aud myself down
here to do that kind of business, and
they will back me up in my action.'
He never heard of it again."
According to story, the Hancock
people are gathering recruits in great
numbers. The accounts of the mul
titudes that flock to Democratic stan
dards are calculated to cheer the
erring brethren to no uncommon de
gree, and it might be a source of
alarm to Republicans, if it were not
for the fact that the Democracy are
somewluit given to high coloring.
Erery one knows tLat during the
Greeley campaign the erring breth
ren told every day of great multi
tudes that flock to their party, and
everybody knows what the result
was. The Greeley campaign is only
used Lere to illustrate Low easily it in
for Democratic leaders to declare
that 60 and so will be tLe result and
that when the result is found it is
something entirely different from
what was predicteL If Republicans
will turn out at the polls, Hancock
cannot be. elected ; but let no one be
deceived that the victory is to be an
easy one. The Democracy propose
to contest every inch, and Republi
cans must be correspondingly active.
" One marked contrast between Gar
field and Hancock is that tbe latter was
educated by tbe Government at one of
tbe best schools in the country, while
Garfield got bis own education and made
his own living at tbe same time. And
another marked coutrast between tbe
two is that Garfield is a profound
scholar, a powerful orator, a deep
tbiuker, a strong reasoner, and one of
tbe nost thoroughly cultured and gen
erally well-read men of bis day, while
Hancock is a soldier, "nothing less and
noteing more," witb probably not an
idea on political economy, finance, in
dustry, business or anything outside of
tbe narrow rauge of bis profession.
Thinking voters will give due weight to
tbe differences between tbe two men,
and as a contrast between them cannot
but be favorable to Gen. Garfield. A
consideration of tbeir qualifications is
just what Republicans most desire, as
it must result in tbe election of tbeir
candidate."
" Mr. V. L. Royal, one of the Vir
ginia delegates to tbe Cincinnati con
vention, has published a letter since bis
return borne in which he says be bas
been opposed to nominating a soldier,
and never did give his assent to tbe
selection of Hancock until be bad re
ceived votes enough to nominate him.
He says : " Tbe Louisiana bauner bear
ing tbe General's portrait being brought
to tbe stand and waved in tbe face of
tbe convention caused tbe nomination.
A freDzy seised every one. Every one
thought it indicated tbat be was nomi
nated, whereas be lacked one hundred
and fifty votes. Every one was then in
a hurry to have bis vote changed for
Hancock. But for this singular coin
cidence I do not believe General Han
cock would have been nominated."
And further : " Tbe whole enormous
mass of human beings was absolutely
mad. There was no sense, no reason,
no judgment anywhere."

Republican and Democratic Tariff-1
Senator Hoar at Boston RAtittealiuu.
Under the Deniocratio policy of the
tariff for revenues only, the starving
laborer of England who cannot get
money enough to take him to tbe sea-
coast, toils wearily for sixpence a day,
aud bis month s work produces aloth
enough to make a suit of clothes. Tbe
farmer in Illinois, or in Pennsylvania,
or in Western New Y'ork, or in Iowa,
or in Massachusetts, bas to show for Lis
month's work a barrel of flour, and the
jobber and tbe merchant of New York
and tbe English capitalist who own tbe
store, or who conducts tbe exchange,
takes out of this man tbe price of three
suits of clothes more to make the ex
change by wbicb tbe cloth is taken
from England to Iowa, and tbe flour is
taken back from Iowa to England. Tbe
laborer in England and Ireland, the
farmer in the northwest, gets but one
quarter of his own product for himself
and paya out three-quarters to those
middle-men who make tbe exchange.
Now tbe Republican tariff says to the
English laborer and manufacturer: "If
you want to exchange your cloth for a
barrel of flour of the American farmer,
if you want to make clothes for us,
come over here and make tbem ; settle
yourselves down by tbe gates of the
farm-house, establish your factory on
tbe river on whose backs tbe wheat and
the beef grow, and save tbe product of
your labor on tbe one band and tbe
product of your farm on the other,
wholly for yourselves. Applause
And that is tbe tariff doctrine of tbe
Republican party."
What Garfield is Worth.
.In Official Statement of His Financial
Raourcet.
From the Cleveland Leader, Rep.
During General Garfield's seventeen
years' career in Congress, a portion of
the tune serving as chairman of tbe
committee on appropriations, and dis
bursing over a thousand million of dol
lars, out of which position Le could
bave realized millions if he was dishon
estly inclined, be never accumulated
any property to any great extent, and
that to-day be is comparatively a poor
man. All of bis worldly possessions
consist of a bouse in Washington, which
cost him $11,000, for wbicb at tbe time
be purchased it be bad to run in debt,
and bis farm 'Lawnfield," in Mentor,
consisting of 150 acres, costing bim
about $12,000. In addition to this be
put about $4,500 improvement on bis
bouse and about $1,500 in stocking tbe
farm. Tbe total value of bis property
foots up about $29,000. From this
should be deducted bis debts, amount
ing to $5,000, leaving Lim possessed of
about $24,000. ibis is tbe accumula
tion of seventeen years' service in Con

eral Garfield's financial status was fur
