Wit think that the position of the
Pennsylvania Republican delegation
in the lower House of Congress on
the nomination_ of Speaker is misap
prehended by the Philadelphia Press,
when it charges that the delegation
as a whole • violated pledges to sup
port Mr. 'Kisco& The Press is
again at fault in attributing Mr.
Keifer's nomination and election to
Stalwart influences. We affirm of
our own ' knowledge; that a number
of the delegation were actuated by
-entirely different motives and under
different influences, and very prop
erly and rightfully so. The causes
that led to the defeat of Mr. His
cock,
grew out of the very general
impression that as the State of New
York now held three or four high posi
tions, she was not therefore entitled
to the Speakership. That Messrs .
,
Conkling and Platt preferred that he
should not wield the Speaker's gavel
we do not doubt., but it was not their
influence in the case of at least eight
of the delegation that carried them
to Kiefer:
The extent of the pledges on the
part of these men to Hiscock, was
only upon condition that he was able
to secure a majority of the delega
lion. This he failed to do, and they
as honorable men asked personally
of hini to be relieved of implied
pledges, and were by him so relie t ed
prior the caticusi, We have no
doubt that the Press was actuated by
the best of motives in its sealifor
Mr. Hisoock, but a' moments reflect
ion should have satisfied it that his
nomination would have left our own
I gtate out in the Cold :without any
._ thing. 'At least half of the delega
; tied thought of Beifer's election
only in the light of a concession i to
the State iof OhiO as the hoine of tilt, -
lamented-TGarfield, and contingently
as securing the Clerkship to Penn , .
sylvitnia; in spite oLthe opposition of
- Barr, Erret and -others who refused
to be bound by the cantina to vote
for Mr: McPherson. The influences
that brought about Mr. Hiacock's
defeat were not weilded by the Stal
warts to any consideyable _degree.
It . was apparent from the time the
° members began to assemble that the
Speakership would go West, and
that Ohio held the commanding

men named below. In addition, the

This selection will be recognized as
eminently strong and judicious. It
combines fair geographical distribution,
high representative character, earnest
Republicanism. aggressive reform' pur
poses and practical political and organ
izing talent. It embraces men whose
faithful and disinterested devotion to
Republican principles will stand un
challenged throughout the State, and
who embody and represent the popular
demand for the honest rule of an hon
est majority: The Republicans Who
are engaged-in this popular movement
—for its whOle `strength lies in . n direct
appeal to thit people—believe that they
aro renderink the highest and best ser
vice to the Republican party . in seeking
to make it hilly responsive to the popu
lar will, and the members of the Com
mittee stand as good types of this Par
poie. •
Senator John Stewart is one of the
ablest and bravest champions of the
beat Republican sentiment In the
Legislature be was a leader, of leaders,
and among the people be is the oon
spicions representative liberal, i 'pro
gressive; true Republicanism. ! His
clear bead, broad views. honest purpose
and great capacity are a tower of
strength to any cause. Mr., Geist is
the fearless Editor of the Lancaster
New ,Ent. who bas fought through
many years- for better politics. Tbe
selections for Philadelphia are admir
able. The political standing and the
high representative character of Col.
William. MeMichiiel are as universally
recognized as his fine intellectual gifts
and his great personal worth, He
. brings to the eauseet ' popular rule an
honored name, a wide acquaintance,
life-long. Republicanism and brilliant
abilities: Samuel W. Pennypacker ha*
been devoted for years to the principles
of a better government, and is a gentle
asan of deep convictions, rare 'mom.;
plisiusienta. and clear, incisive, com-•
prehensive thOught. •
The remaining names from the State
ars equally well chosen. Senator
Davies was the representative and em-.
bodiment of public sentiment in the
atones preliminari to the recent State
Convention. He is a cool, judicious,
foreefulasa, whose coma, and co-op-,
arationlein be et great service. Mr.
„_
Philips was one of the nOnapienous sup
porters of Mr. Wolfepin the' last gain
paign--a widely-known and respected
representative of the, oil region-I-end
his designation signifies that the Re
pnblicans who vote for Wolfe as a pro
test against - pasty abuses are not to be
treated as having by that act put them-
selves outside of the pale of the piirty.
but are welcomed to act as Peptiblieana
for Ftepublimn reform within' the Re
publican organization. Mr. Fleming
was formilly Sheriff of Allegheny Cinn
ty and is a gentleman of large political
capacity, and experience. What is still
more important, he has behind him in
this movement and pledged - to his sup
port, as we am able to My, the" real
moral, intellectual, financial and busi
ness strength of Allegheny. Of. Sena
tor Lee himself, who, against his wish
es for a more retired poeition, has been
put at the front in this; movement, we
need only say but he •is one of the
barest, most disinterested and high
minded among all the Itspnblicaullead
ders.
One of the first duties of this Execu
tive Committee will be to designate the
General Committee:of 251, correspozid

WASHINGTON 'LETTER.
(Editorial correspondence of Tnz,Rgruntscsi.]
At this writing, Saturday evening
it is decided, so far as the caucus of
the dominant party can decide, who
will be the elective officers of House.
The Republican caucus assembled in
the Hall of Representatives at noon
to-day, Gov. Robescin, of New Jersey,
presided.
THE NOMINATIONS.
The contest for ; the',speakership was
animated and warmly contested. The
names presented were Hiscock, of
New York; Keifer, of Ohio; Kasson,
of Iowa; Reed, of Maine; Burrows, of
_Michigan; Orth, of Indiana; and
Dunnel, of Minnesota. The first
ballot demonstrated that Keifer held
the key to the position. The vote
stood, Keifer 53, Hiscock 45, Kasson
15, Reed 13, Burrows .10, . Orth 8,
Dunnel 4. This result indicated clear
ly that the speakership would go West.
Thirteen of the Pennsylvania delega
tion voted steadily for Keifer from the
beginning; the other five votes were
cast for Iliscock. The several ballots
up So the sixteenth and final ballot
proceeded wirh varying changes,
Keifer holding his own, and Hiscock
losing, when the break came, result
ing in 93 votes for Keifer., Thus,
Garfield's State and a Garfield Repub
lican carries off the prize of the
speakership of the House.
THE CLEZKSHTP.
Hon. Edward . McPherson, of Penn
sylvania, was notninated for this re
sponsible position on the 'first ballot,
receiving )93 votes. Two other names
were presented; Johnson, of New
York, and J. H. Rainey, of Southl
Carolina.. Rainey received 40 votes
and Johnson 10; This is a remarkable
triumph for Mr. McPherson, who
went into-the caucus with a. divided
delegation from his own State. Every
possible device was resorted to by his
political enemies in Pennsylvania to
force another candidate upon the dele
gation from their State. De B.
Skyoular lap 'isyitsihnglua" 'newspaper
correspondents for a week prior to the
caucus, 'as the coming man. State
ments were sent out that ' McPherson
would not have inore , than three votes
in his own delegation; that the dele
gation would drop McPherson, to
make Bunn of the Philadelphia Sun
day Transcript,
_Sergeant-at-Aims.
At a conference of the. Republican
Pennsylvania members on Saturday
morning prior to the general caucus;
this project was broached
.by the
•
opponents of McPherson, when the
fact was developed that atleast ten of
the delegation were for McPherson.
It also became apparent that with ten
Penn - Sylvania votes he would probably
be nominated on the first ballot. The
project of presenting Bunn was not
I pressed, and the conference adjourned
without, action on the question of the
Clerkship. Errett, of Allegheny and
Barr of Dauphin, are bitterly person-,
ally hostile to McPherson, and exerted
every possible influence to reduce his
vote in the delegation to the smallest
possible number. After the nomina
tion of . Speaker, these gentlemen left the
general caucus and would not partici
pate in the nomination of Clerk, assert
ing that they would vote against his
election in the organization of the'
House, as they probably will. Me,
Pherson will be elected nevertheless.
This is bolting at the other end of the.
line. The nomination of Mr. McPher
son is a handsome tribute to his capac
ity and faithfulness as Clerk of the
House during ten years of former
service in that capacity. •
SERGEd,NT-AT-ARMS.
This prize fell to Vermont, in the
person of Mr. G. W. Hooker, on the
first ballot. The vote in detail was as
follows: Hooker 80, Geo. Frances

Pennsylvania, 11; Fort, of:Illinois, 20;
and J. H. Rainey 1. -

The nomination of ' Doorkeeper was
accorded to Tennessee, and the nomi
nee is Col. W. P. Brownlow, a - nephew
of the late Parson Brownlow, who was
the unanimous choice of the" southern
Republican Members, and he received
123 votes on the first ballot' for
Jardine, of N. Y. and 3'scattering.
The name of Mark Sherwood, of
Michigan, a one legged soldier, and a .
thoroughly competent young man was
presented for the position of Postniaster
of the House, and his nomination was
made by acclamation.
There were several candidates for.
the office of chaplain of the Rouse,
but when the name of Rev. J. P. Power,
pastor of the Christian church,
(Disciple,) of this city was presented,
all other names were withdrawn, and
Mr, Power was nominated by accla
matipn. This is a feeling tribute to
the memory 9f President Garfield, as
well as a rospectfril consideration Pr
the church of which he was a member,-
both of which are represented in • Mr.
Power; pastor of thwehurch whey"; 4e
worshipped.t
These nominations will no _doubt . : be
ratified by the House on , : ?Sunday.
The Foity-seventh Congress will be
called to order at 12 o'clock; noon.
' Could this letter have reached you

is slowly progresadw, The prisoner
was put upon the witness stand by Mr.
Scoville, and his testimony. in his di- .
rect and Cross examination - occupied
four days time of the Court.
After he had gone throne' the
searching cross examination of witness Porter, of N. Y. he left the witness
box with an impression upon the minds
of the audience, that a man who could
so sharply and intelligently interpret
the force , of the questions put to him
by Judge Porter, and so readily and
cnnninglyj devise and deliver his
answers. is responsible for his acts,
and the very general impression is that
this will be the verdict of the jury.
Our member . Hon. C. C. Jadwin,
must not be classed as coining within
the censure applied by the i Philadel
phia Press to . the Pennsyliania Re
publican delegation for their action
in reference to Speaker and Clerk of
the House. He has acted with perfect
fidelity, and has been both wise and
consistent 'in his course. He was
personallyi for Mr. liiscock for Speaker,
and foe Mr. • McPherson:,. for. Clerk.
He stood by McPherson with his best
efforts , and ex4rted a controlling influ
ence in his 4elegation for him, and did
not abandon Mr. Hiscock until all hope
of his success was gone.

face, fringed with a bushy, broWn
beard and wears'a wealth of black hair
well:sprinkled with gray. He is more
than an average debater and since his
service in Congress has made the best
possible use of his oratorical. powers.
In his youth- he attended the common
schools of , his native " county and
finished his education at Antioch
College, Ohio. In 1856 he began Abe
study of law at Springfield,- where he
now lives and was admitted - to practice
in 1858.. He entered the Union army
in April, 1861, as Major of the Third
Ohio Infantry and less than a year
afterwards was_promoted to the Lieu
tsnant-Colonelcy of the same regiment
and later, in 1862,. was made Colonel
of the 11th Ohio infantry. He served
in the West Virginia campaign' inlthe
early part of the war,, and again in
Kentucky and other southwestern
States. He was transferred to the
,-Eastern army in 1664, and was severe
ly wounded in the battle of the Wilder

breveted brigadeer general for gallant
and meritorious conduct in Sheridan's
I Shenandoah Valley campaign of that
year in which he was twice wounded.
On the_ , lst of July, 1865, he was
breveted major-general for distinguished
services rendered during the campaign
rending lin the surrender of General Lee.
July 27, 1865, he was mustered out of
the service and resumed the pradtice of
law in Springfield. In 1868 and 1869
he was a member of the Ohio`State
Senate, and during the same time 'and
for alew years following,- a prominent
officer of the Grand Army of the Re
public. He was *; a delegate to the
National Convention in 1876, which
nominated Hayes for the Presidency.
In the same year Congressional :aspire=
Lions siezed him, and he defeated, - ,tifter
a hard fight, the Hon, William Law

Treasury, for the Congressional' nom

MIRACULOUS CURE.
I will now state that I made a miraculous cure
of one of the worst cases of skin disease known.
The patient is a man forty years old; had suffered
fifteen years. His eyes, scalp and nearly his
whole body presented a frightful appaaranco.
Had bad the attention of twelve different physi
cians, who prescribexi the best remedies known
to the profession, such as iodide • potassium,
arsenic, corrosive sublimate, sarsaparilla, etc.
Had paid $5OO for medical treatment with but
little relief. l,prevailed up= him to use the
Crrioulia lissoLviesx iaternaliy,end the Cu rictum
and Mumma ;Boas externally. Ho did so, and
was compklely cared. The skin on his head, face,
and many other parts of his body, which pre
sented a-moat loathsome appearance, is now as
soft an,l smooth as an infant's, with no scar or
trace of the disease left behind. He has now
been cured twelve .months.
