It is oonseose fur Hancock to talk of beating General Garfield and Gen eral Prosperity. Another American ship bas been overhauled by a Spanish uiao-of-war. Was it a pirate ? Montgomery Blair bas boxed the political compass once again. This time be is for Hancock. On tbe 122 J inst. an American lady from New York, in Paris, committed suicide. Disappointed love was the cause. Garfield was a voluntoer soldier. nd wherever he was tried be manifest ed as much coinage, nd as great ability as Hancock. Gen. II. S. HuiDEKorER, of Mead- ville, bas bcsn named by President Hayes as the uew Postmaster lor Phil adelpbia- The conscientious Democrat, who could not thiok of voting to put a mili tary man into the .'residential chair, is now scratching bis head in perplexity as to bow be bhall become reconciled to voting for Hancock. It is not the soldier who will vote for Hancock. If he has become the cham pion of tbe cause that organized rebel lion, the northern soldier will not lot low him over into the ranks of the men who struck at the life of the nation. The shock of an earthquake was felt in Manchester, X. II., on tbe 20th inst Who were the people that inhabited tbe country embraced within the present limit? of .Sew Hampshire when tbe mouuUius of that State were upheaved Ox Saturday General Grant as elected president of the San Pedro sod Canon de L'Aqua Company, which owns 40,000 acres of land in New Mex ico. The company is a mining com pany. The General is to receive J5.- 000 a year salary. The capitalists of the concern are chiefly New lork and Boston men. The Spaniards, it appears, are not to have all the sport to themselves in firing at American ships, for a dispatch from Halifax says that an Englishman, or an English ship, amused himself by firing at an American t-hip, on the 4th of J uly , and everybody is asking every other body, " What does it mean ?" and the answer is an echo, What does it And now some learned man comes forward and declares that the ten lost tribes of Israel settled in Ireland, Scot land and England, and in parts of Con tinental Europe, and that the Goths, Vandals and Huns are desoendauts of the ten lost tribes. As nearly m!l the white people in tbe United States have Eprutig from tbe people just mentioned, they must needs be Jews, if tbe learned man ts correct. The Democrats cut a piece out of the brief of a lawyer named Doolittle, vbo practices in the Supreme Court, and pi'Miohed the piece as an opinion delivered by Justice Swayne against Garfield on tbe business of the De Golyer contract. Justice Swayne saw the article in Democratic papers, and that is the way tbe lie was found out. Justice Swayne bad no such case before him as tbey allege. At last it bas transpired that it was Spanish ship of war that fired on American merchant ships. And now Spain is in an ugly fix. She said ber ships of war did not commit tbe out rage. An apology tor the outrage, and for false representation will be rather an unpleasant kiod of a statement to make. Perhaps tbe commander of ber ship of war fired without orders from the gov ernment. The Democratic papers tbat have been printing tbe article tbat declares that the Supreme Court pointed to Gen eral Garfield as having acted corruptly in tbe De Golyer contract business, are (truck dumb by tbe statement of Jus tice Swayne of tbe Supreme Court, which says : " I never wrote a word of what is attributed to me on tbe De Golyer case. I never knew anything of the facta of tbe matter charged against General Garfield, and it was certainly never in any shape before the Supreme Court." No loan should detract from tbe merit of General Hancock as a soldier, but there is no use in loading him up with a reputation tbat be is not entitled to. For example, it is said tbat be cbose tbe strong defensive line on which the battle of Gettysburg was fought. Tbat is mistake. That line was chosen on tbe first day of tbe fight, alter General Keynolds was killed. It was chosen by General Howard, and if Generals Hancock and Meade, when tbey came up, approved of the position or line to fight on, so much tbe better for tbe judgment of General Howard. In Somerset county, this State, four bowmen violated tbe person of s girl aged between 13 and 14 years. Tbe abuse was inhnman. Tbey are in jail, and men, for a lee, will defend them. Tbe outrage was perpetrated some days ago. About the same time that the fiendish showmen were engaged in their inhuman work in Pennsylvania, a man near Shelby ville, Tenn., attempted to violate tbe person of a ten-year old girl. He was taken abont a mile from town and Laoged on the limb of a tree. Nineteen hundred and twenty-five years ago, tbe then known world was ruled by tbe Itotuan soldier, Julius Caesar. He waa the master of all the governments of tbe world. He bad a aife whom be greatly admired, but tbe being, above all others, who waa master of t assar, waa a beautiful Egyptian Queen named Cleopatra, and tbe sol dier was oftener found at tbt court of the Queen in Egypt, than at tbe bouse of bis wile in Rome. A magnificent obelisk, a monument in one whole piece twelve feet square and sixty seven feet two inches bigb, standing then in Egpyt, was called for ber called Cleopatra's Needle. by it was so called is Dot revealed at this day. It is singular that it was named after the fascinating Queen, for the inscriptions on its sides lead to the conclusion that it is a great deal older tbau two thousand years. Tbe Turkish ruler of Egypt offered it to America, bnt the trouble was to find a person on this side of tbe water able to pay the expense of bringing it here. At last William II. Vanderbilt came forward and promised to foot tbe bill for bringing it over. It was landed last week at New York City, where it will be put np. Tbe cost of bringing it here was seven-five thousand dollars. Tbe following from tbe diary of a New York City policeman is illustrative of the power of "red tape, in New York City : "A year ago tbe body of a dog lay for a week on tbe boundary between two precincts on tbe east side. Thirty policeman were tried and fined for tbat dog." Tbe inference is tbat tbe policemen of each precient thought those of tbe other precinct should remove it. The other day a worse cage than tbat was reported. A World reporter beardthat a police ser geant bad telegraphed to the driver of an offal cart that a dead dog was lying at a certain corner. Tbe driver re turned and reported that it wasn't a dog, but a goat. Tbe policeman who bad reported tbat it was a dog in sisted at first that be was not mistaken but at length "caved" and said it might be a goat be didn't examine it very closely- He waa sent back to do so, and returned saying it was a goat And then a fresh report bad to be sent t J headquarters that it was a goat in stead of a dog, and telegraphed again to tbe offal-dock before it could be re moved. The driver had been sent for a dog, and couldn't take away a goat witbont specific gnat orders." i m m It is not tbe intelligent citizen Bo! dier that is going to hurrah for Han cock. While be appreciates a brave soldier and an able general, be does not propose to be a bero worshipper, to the sacrifice of tbe cause tbat he fought for. It is net tbe soldiers tbat tbe Demo crats will catch with a soldier bait. If they catch any people that bave not been with them, they will be of that class who will be led away by tbe cry of ex travagance' and corruption. Men are often reached in that way. Tbey should stop a moment, reflect, and understand tbat no corruption is equal to the pluDg ing of a nation into civil war, such as that into which tbe leaders of Democ racy plunged tbe country. War and bloodshed, as a last resort of a bad cause, is tbe essence of corruption. There is an enterprise on foot to tunnel tbe Hudson river between New York City and Jersey City, tbe dis tance being between one and two miles. Work bas been commenced on tbe Jer sey side. A shaft 65 foet deep and 30 feet in diameter bas been sunk, and tbe tunnel commenced. Last Wednesday morning a break in the shaft below the surface of the river took place. Tbe water rushed in ; twenty men were drowned ; eight men escaped. m On Wednesday last tbe entire circus company of Boyd Peters were ar rested at Leesburg, Pa., for tbe out rage of a 13-year-old girl in Somerset county. Tbey were all put in jail, and a strong guard waa posted around tbe building to prevent tbem from being taken out and banged. Tbe public mind in tbe neighborhood is wrought up by tbe terrible crime of the show men to an exceedingly aggressive state. STATE ITEMS- The prospects for a large grape crop are good. Put in your best work for Garfield and Arthur. Lightning is a fearful source of de struction to oil wells. It is said there is a fonrteeo foot vein of nickel ore in UaT township, Cam bria county. There are eleven persons in tbe Alle gheny county jail charged with murder. Of these three are women. A sharp penknife, with which a man named Suively was cutting a cabbage, in Connellsville, on Saturday a week, slipped and fatally injured bim. It is said tbat the rich farms around the mouth of Pioe creek, Potter coun begin to show signs of exhaustion from tbe constant cropping in tobacco. Alexander Murdoch, of lloneybrook, Chester county, is over eighty years ot age, and bas worked in tbe harvest field every day throughout tbe past season. Chester county bas four mounted Re publican clubs, each a hundred strong, aud all composed of two-thirds of men who will give their first vote for Presi dent this year. The pilgrimages to Gettysburg this summer are greater than any previous summer since the great battle was fought there. Ualpb Gibbons, aged 38, who started for Ashland on Saturday night a week for bis borne at Cmtralia, waa fouud near Ceutralia horribly mangled and unconscious. It is alleged be was beat en by companions who bad attended a dance with bim that night He cannot recover. J he authorities are mvesti gating the affair. Two colored postal clerks bave been running on Cincinnati Express west and fast .Lido east since Friday morn ing a week. Tbe run is from Steuben- ville, Ohio, to Altoona. One of tbem, named Bacchus, bas been in tbe postal service tor nve years. A. J. Moon was brought to Bradford on Monday a week, for safe keeping. He enticed two little girls (Annie Har mon, aged 7 years, and Pearl Price, aged 9 year) inta tbe bushes at Reed City and attempted to outrage them. He would bave been lynched in Reed City but for a timely rescne. A woman in Waynesboro threw a brick at a dog a few days ago, but as is customary with tbat sex, missed the ob ject thrown at and struck a little boy, named George Boerner, on tbe bead. knocking him insensible. Medical aid was promptly on band and be soon re covered. Letter from an Old Jar kaoniaa Democrat of Urrennood TvwnsbJp. Near Seven-Star Taveric, ) July 24, 1880. My Dear Mr. Editor : I guess you know that never at any time in tbe life of living farmers bave the Saturday nights been so welcome as the past five. Down here we relished tbe past five Saturday nights as much as Old Andy Jackson relished his corn-cob pipe. Ton see, bay making, corn working, wheat catting and oats harvest have kept us farmers so busy that we bave not had time to- more than take a little sleep-, and work ail day. It was nearly as sharp work as wbea Old Hickory waa cut on a campaign alter the red coats. Sometimes be did not get his boots off from one Satur day night till another. It was haid this harvest on the youngsters that wanted to spark the girls, and many a tired one, after working hard all week, went off on a Satur day night sparking excursion, which lasted till nearly Sunday morning, and somo cf them kept it up over Sunday, and when Monday came it was for a troth a blue Mon day. Well, we are about through with the har vest, and I thought tint on this mellow Sat urday evening I'd go to the Stars and see the mellow friends. We had a good time. We bave a brass band down here that can toot more music than a little, and play Th Girl that I Lett Behind Me," sweeter than anything you ever heard. By the Eternal, as Old Andy used to say, it is astouishiog bow they can Mow it. We bad fresh new talk about tbe ladies. We talked about the census and the causes that lessened the pop ulation some three hundred in the lower end in the past ten year ;' but I will write to you particularly, some time, about tbe talk about the ladies and the census. Tbe most talk of all was about politics. It was high, yoa can bet your best. My old Jacksonian friends were stirred up, and the way they talked a Hancock boom was a caution. I guess it was the music that moved them so. Tbe eyes ot the old veterans, that is, I mean, the old Knights of the Golden Cir cle, fairly danced to the tune of the Green wood Band when it Mowed such nice music. But when the mnsic was over it was plain to my eyes that to tbem at least it isn't just so nice to take a soldier who got his fame fighting in the war that they declared a great outrage and a great failure. The Knights never took their charges back, and they only now want to make use of Han cock to make good their saying. But they are agoing to eat crow. They shouted against putting a soldier into the Presiden tial chair ; they turn about and eat crow, . and shout for Gen. Hancock. Oh! shades of Oiu Andy, have my old triends came to that 1 Let us not be so fast. Stop, think, and, by Jove ! tLe truth is that there was a good deal of sbam alout tbefr call for a civilian President, for you must recollect that tbey did their best to manufacture sym pathy for such rebel statesmen as Geuerals Jeff Davis, Beauregard, Breckinridge, Polk and others. I'll tell you what it is, my old Jacfcsonian friends down here are tbe keen est double-enders to be found anywhere, and they'd surprise Old Hickory himself if be c culd live in this neck of timber. The thing that cropped cut and struck the bard est, was the impression tbat they are get ting up tbat the army under Hancock is to do something, if Congresa will get up a dis agreement with the President next March. 1 couldn't just understand tbe whole ar rangement. I am not certain that they have it real clear themselves, but they expect the Brigadier Congress to get np some sort of a rumpus with Hares, and then Hancock is to side with Congress and use such part of the army as be can command, and call for troops. All the old rebel generals are ex pected to flock to bis standard. Ton can bet your life that's their plan if tbey can get up such a muddle as at the last Presl dential election. If they have a majority of the electors of course their man will be come tbe President, and then with a Con gress they will undo by legislation what was done on the field of battle for freedom. They will say tbat as the population of the country bas greatly increased, the business of the Supreme Court bas increased, and they will create as many judges as they need, and tbey ill frame cases and carry them up to the Supreme Court, and get decisions against the currency, the banks, and the amendments to tbe Constitution, and then where are you. Too will have to swallow it or rebel. Tbey hope, when reaction sets in, to make it a deluge that will wipe out all, and more than was gained for free government by the war. Tbe safe way is to vote for Garfield. Old Andy never trusted the nullification leaders after they tried to rebel, when he was President, and if be could speak to us he'd tell us not to be fooled into voting for the old rebel element, under the sham of a soldier who fought for free government. Who knows that Han cock is not a soldier of fortune ? He may be a patriot, but the soldier of fortune will fight on cither side if interest dictates. He is like a lawyer ; whichever side he is with he will consider his client, and he will fight for bis client. I could write you a longer letter, but it is getting late. I will write to you again. Good night. Yours, truly, BARTON SPEAK. B ITT EX BY 8.1AKES. Two Children the Victims One Diti. From the Lykena Register. Ou Thursday evening of last week, between five and six o'clock, Annie E. Wallace, thirteen year of age, and the only daughter of Mr. John J. Wallace, residing on his farm, about a mile west of this borough, was severely bitten by a snake a few inches above ber ankle. At tbe time of the unfortunate occur rence tbe girl was in the act of break iog a bash from a lilac tree in the door yard, beneath tbe shades of which the reptile bad doubtless sought relief from tbe intense beat, and she may bave stepped npoo it Internal and exter nal remedies were immediately applied, but, although tbe limb swelled to dou ble its natural size, and tbe wonnd was extremely painful for a day or two, tbe child ia now rapidly recovering from tbe effects of tbe poison. Tbe snake, which waa a copperhead, measuring three and a balf feet in length, was afterward killed by Mr. Wallace. A four-year-old son of R. C. Orn dorff, of Wiconisco, who lives a abort distance north of tbe Welsh church. sustained fatal injuries from tbe bite of a copperhead snake on Saturday after noon last, which caused his death on Supdsy, The little fellow waa playing just outside of the yard attached to the dwelling, and it is supposed reached down to take the snake in bis Land when the bite was inflioted. The'fam ily bave tbe sympathy of the commu nity at the melancholy event. The Democratic Convention in this coun ty will be held on the 23rd day of August. STATE ITEMS,' Berk's county baa a debt of $180, 000. There is to be no increase in the price of coal. Dysentery ia prevalent in Blair and Cambria countiea Tbe new census will make many of the countiea of the State separate ju dicial districts. Twenty-eight sheep were slaughter ed by dogs in one night on the farm of Joseph Gutwald in Cambria township, Cambria county. Two emigrants, while stopping at the Altoona depot tbe other day, caused a good deal of laughter by trying to rub the black off a oolored man's face. He was the first negro tbey bad ever aeen William Mamma, aged 18, son of Rev. 1. C. Mamma, a United Brethren preacher of Annville, Lebanon county, was Saturday night a week cut to pieces on the Lebanon Valley Railroad, Dear Palmyra. On tbe occasion of tbe celebration of Perry's victory on Lake Erie, Sept 10, there will be a grand demonstration of tbe firemen, in which companies from all the surrounding towns and cities will participate. While a new thresher was being tried ou tbe farm of Jacob G. Zerr, at Geig erstown, Berks county, on Friday, tbe boiler exploded. A building was wrecked and tbe boilor waa thrown a distance of fifty feet and embedded in the ground. There was do loss of life. A ootorious character of Schuylkill county is William M. Thomas, alias "Bully Bill," at one time a constable in Mahanoy City. He is now in jail for tbe aeventeenth time for disorderly conduct Ha was chosen as a mark for Mollie Maguire bullets at one time and made a narrow escape. . A terrific bail storm passed over Say lorsburg, Monroe eounty, on Saturday a week. Tbe corn is all cut to pieees. Tbe oats lay flat on tbe ground, and tbe seeds are nearly all threshed out, while tbe straw is injured so tbat it will not pay to harvest it. An emery atone, about twenty-five inches in circumference, in tbe planing mill of S. J. Smith, in Franklin bor ough, Cambria county, while running at tbe rata of one thousand two hun dred and forty revolutions per minute, exploded with a report equal to tbat of a cannon. On Saturday evening a week an emi grant atuck bis bead out of a car win dow as tbe train was about entering a bridge near Stearnburg, Crawford coun ty. Tbe upper portion of bis bead was torn off and tbe brains scattered about. His wife and two children were sitting in tbe seat beside him. A purse of $50 was raised for tbeir benefit Lioomeb, Westmoreland county, July 23. Some of tbe men connected with tbe "snide" BoydiPeters' circus gave it out tbat twenty of tbeui out raged Salome Burkett tbe first night of ber capture. fcbe is not 14 and is simple-minded. After sbe was aband oned by tbe circus villians in tbe vi cinity of this place, atnigutshe became bewildered and wild: would flee if ap proached and bide in tbe brush and and fields. Sbe was observed in tbe vicinity of Somerset playing in the road i by berself, throwing sand and amusing herself like a little child. It is sup posed tbe circus men drugged her. Tbey made an attempt to capture three other girls, bat were foiled by a young man in charge of tbem, who was assaulted by the scoundrels and bis eyes blackened before be succeeded in getting the girls away from tbem. So it appears that they followed the ab duction business. One of the three men identified by the girl at Greens burg as among ber assailants was Pe ters, one oF tbe proprietors of tbe show Tbe case will hereafter be moved to Somerset, the county of tbe abducted girl, for further proceedings. GESERAL ITEMS. New Orleans bas neither cellar nor sewers, because the city rests on a sub stratum of marsh. In the poor-house at Milwaukee is one Joseph Daws, who before the war was reputed worth over $3,000,000. This year's yield of tea in India is estimated at 70,000,000 pounds, near ly double tbat 'of 1878. Ten years ago it was nnder 14,000,000. The Massachusetts Supreme Court decides that a man travelling on Sunday except to and from church, cannot re cover damages for injuries received on the way owing to defective roads or bridges. Secretary Evans' income from bis law practice is estimated at from $80, 000 to $150,000 per year. His fees are tbe largest of any lawyer in the country, $25,000 and $50,000 not being an unusual ammount for bim to re ceive in a single case. Boston recently had one hundred and fifty sobool boys in prison for truancy. A lawyer of tbe city discov ered that there was no law to warrant imprisonment for, or punishment of, truancy, ao he took tbe matter before the courts and the boys were released. Mrs. John W. M'Coy, a married lady of Wilmington, Del-, assaulted George Lewis with a cowhide for an al leged slander. Her busband stood by with a loaded revolver while tbe attack was made. The man was severely punished. Lewis ig superintendent of a br.ckyard. Tbe Rochester Democrat bas discov ered the fate William Morgan, who was currently reported and generally believed to bave been killed in tbe neighborhood of Lake Erie by the ti - . -.. ... Masonic traternity because ot bis ' ex posure of the secrets thereof. Tbe Democrat' t information is to the effect that Morgan was not murdered, as re ported, but left tbe couotry voluntarily going to Australia, and receiving bis passage money and $200 therefor. He published a newspaper in Anstrali un til bis death, and bis son is there now and engaged in tbe sams business. This story comes from Morgans, second cousin. Petrifaction is common in t!e neigh borhood of Old Crown Point Fort. An old ferryman recently found the petri fied bead of a soldier which was wash out of the anoient French burial ground oear tbe mouth of Jack'a creek, on Lake Cbamplain. He stumbled against what he at first thought a stone, bat closer inspection showed it to be a hu man bead and neck, with a soldier a bat with the cross bands complete, all turned to stone 1 be features are of a Roman cast The color of the relio is like tbat of dark gray sandstone, re sembling the soil whence it came, which is a clayey mixture of gravel and sand. , From the Mount Union Time. Newton McLain, of Tod township, bas a large dog which be valuea highly, and be had a mule, bat the mule will kick no more. In tbe stable in which the mule waa kept there was a door having a triangular opening near its top, made by tbe splitting or breaking off of one of tbe boards composing it One day last week tbe mule put its bead out of this aperture to gaze around. In drawing back its head caught tbe broad bonea of its lower jiw on the boot-jack shaped sides of the opening and was securely fastened In its ef forts to pull its bead loose its feet slip ped from under it, and it was left hang ing by its neck. Tbe dog saw tbe di lemma in which tbe male, waa placed and saw that help was necessary. It ran to tbe bouse and made such dem onstrations as induced Mrs. McLain to follow it to the barn. Upon arriving there sbe fonod tbat the dog was hard at work trying to extricate tbe male by vigorously pulling at ita tail. Mrs. Mc Lain, finding tbat sbe and the dog to gether could do nothing with so large a body as a mule, went to the field for ber busband, leaving tbe dog still tug ging at the mule. By the time McLain got there the mule was dead, but tbe interest tbe dog took m trying to save bim will not soon be forgot tra by tbe family. ANNOUNCEMENTS.

COMMUNICATION. Tbe following communication from J. T. Nourse, Esq., explains itself: Editor Sentinel and Republican Dear S ir, I have been requested by several persons lo make an expbnation in regard to the sev eral announcements for Senatorial Conferee. The Committee met June 21, 1879, and it was then agreed to submit an amendment, which originally read '-That the Senatorial and Representative Delegates be voted for and elected by tbe people," but a motion was mado and carried, changing the amend ment to read as follows s - Resolved, That tbe Representative Delegate and Senatorial Conferee be voted for and elected at the primary election." This is the amendment as printed in the call for primary election beld Ang. 2, 1879, ao printed oa the tick ets, voted for and adopted by the voters, and so declared by the Chairman or the Convention, Aug. 4. 1879, and so printed by you ia the call for primary election to be held July 81, 1880. Yon print announcements for three Sen atorial Conferees tbe Herald the same number. The custom bas always been to elect a Delegate, with the privilege of se lecting his own Conferees ; and the mistake now made can only be rectified by the voters voting for only one person as Sena torial Conferee and the judges should only count one name. This, 1 believe, to be the eorrect view taken by the party throughout the county. Yours, very truly, JOHN T. KOtRSB. Ti member of the Republican party who proposed the amendment to the sys tem under which the Republicans of Juni ata bold tbt ir Primary Election is living. Other members of the party who were in Committee with bim when tbe amendments were proposed doubtless understood the spirit, or meaning of the amendment out of which tbe misunderstanding bas arisen. The framer of a law always knows what he means, and when a misinterpretation arises, it is the safest plan to look up the man or men who framed the law, and get tbeir meaning. Tbe amendment was adopted by tbe people, and cannot be set aside, except ing by a' Vote of the people of the party, and the men who proposed the amendment are all living and within easy reach, and as Mr. Nourse clearly foreshadows in the above letter, they are the persons above all others most competent to speak as to tbe spirit or tuear.injr of the amendment.
