' Aks the Republican convention is to be

The Philadelphia Ledger
„ Unquestionably
the most influential Independent journal in
the State, is warmly supporting Beaver:
Mr. Childs says his paper does this not
because of any political feeling or bias, but
because he believes this much at least is

Crop dispatchesirom some sixty 'points

fine weather and a generally favojable 4p
pearance of wheat and other smelt grains.
The acreage of all grain in the . localities
covered by the disiiiitches is about the same
as last dear. except that of wheat, which
has dec = sed twenty to fifty per cent.

Repo from all over Arkansas as late as

some wheat is injured by cool weather, and

freshets. Complaint is general of injury
-to the cotton by the cool weather, bright
sunshine:and warm nights being nnw re
quired. ' In many Places the plant has died,
and replanting:has been necessary.

on a visit to Judge Black 'at York, Pa.,
and shrewd political observers think that
the object of the visit was to - arrange for
his nomination as Goren:y:o of . Pennsylva

crats have strong hopes of Carrying `the

' The Monroe Doctrine has crossed the
Atlantic, at least it looks as if Europe ' did
not `ant American interference in the old
worla. A-Berlindespatch, referring to two

Some folks cheer themselves with the
idea that wars and rumors of war are. at
an end - atnongst civilized nations; but they
must draw their conclusidns chiefly, if: not
entirely, from the situation in this &bun
try: In-Europe there is nn P c rospect of war,
ceasing. There, for instance is poor little'
Denmark, which has a popubition of about
1,800,000, and a national debt of $28,000,-
000,,and is going to spend 'slB,soo,ooo—a
good deal more than her yearly income—

The cases of the Commonwealth against

error, and the cases were argued together..
The. Commonwealth, was representbd by
Attorney General Palmer, Deputy Attorney
General S'uodgrai..4s and Lyman D. Gilbert.
The arguments on both tides differed but
little from those presented •' before the

It is good news for people in this State to
learn that the Delaware prach crop shows
uncommon Vitality this year in" more ways
' than ono. They luive resisted the deter
mined assaults of a hostile season, have
blossomed luxuriously, and now arel"all of
a strut with the young fruit," says the
Smyrna Tittles, which addti: "TM'S intent
of nature to do its best after a year of rest
is notable in the great number . of twin
peaches; one Winer tells us that he foutid
no less , than th'ree on a twig of six ~inches;
• • and says. others have noticed the ntitaber of
double peaches in the same bloom cup.
Such a strong intent in production has not
been noticed since 18n."

,Last year at This time in iigorous health, it
was only the circumstance of Mrs. Gar

the meeting a, Gettysburg, , where he was
to have takerr,conspicuous part in the cere
monies. But for that nearer duty there
would have been on record for the memo
ries of the day just past, some such clear
cut, loyal and broadly patriotic sentences
as will ever connect Mr. Lincoln's last ut
terances to his countrymen with the field of
Gettysburg. What a season of suffering
and hopes and united prayers, and still
more united sorrow, the American people
have lived through since Dec orati on day of

At last the Star Bouts trials are fairly
under way. A jury has been empatmeled
with less difficulty than had been expected,
and it is now in order for the prosecuting

task, and:as•the defence is certein to be

The Democratic papers are ail jubilant
over the prospect of the Republicans of
this State defeating themselves by division.
It means a Democratic Legislature, says
the New Orleans Democrat, and a Demo.
cratic Senator in place of Cameron, also a
Democratk apportionment, which will give
us twenty Congressmen instead of nine,
equal to a change of twenty-two votes in
Congresa—dolibtless more than enough to
:decide the majority. It is easy to see,
therefore, says .the Southern paper mention
ed; the great influence this Pennsylvania
bolt promisek to have; upon national poli
tics.
The anti-polygamy law seems to have had
no effect upon the emigration of - Merman
proselytes to this country. A bitch of
about three hundred ds these converts..from
Europe arrived at Neli York 'On Sunday,
and - others are expected to follow. Six
emissaries of the Mormon Church, called
elders, sailed for Europe last week to join
the missionary forcvnd help on Abe - work
of recruiting for the-Church. The charac
ter' of this class of immigration which aver
age several thouiand every - year, is of a
very low grade both physically and men
tally. The ixen are weakly, dull and igno
rant, and the women• fie anything but
intelligent or. comely. The last' arrivals
'were mostly Sweeds, Norwegian, Germans,
English, Scotch, Swiss and Welsh in about
the order named. --
• It is said that Mr. John I. Davenport's
long and patient search for the writer of
the Morey letter has at last been rewarded
With success, and that the guilty author of
the infamous forgery will when the proper
time arrives be delivered up to justice. In
the meanwhile, however, the mystery re
mains nnrevealed, sand a tantalized

mitisfied curiosityms it best can. Why,
however, if the culprit has been found,
there should be any delay in putting him

upon the story ,of the Capture. The author

The Census Office' has issued a bulletin
showing that by the census of 1880 the
number of persons in the United States 50,-
155,783; the area in square miles, 2000,170;
the number of families, 9,945,916; the num
ber of dwellings 8,965,812; the number of
persons to a square mile, 17.29; the number
of families to a square mile, 3.43; the num
ber of dwellings to a square mile, 3.02;
acres to a person, 37.61; acres to a • family,
186.62; persons to a dwelling, 5.40, and
persons to a family,. 5.04. The area is land
surface only, and exclusive of the Indian
Territory and tracts of unorganized terri
tory aggregating 69,830 square miles.
These details are very interresting. It will
be observed that five is the average of num
ber of persons to each family, assuming
that the whole population is nu/de up of
families, and that there is one dwelling

THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR HASTE.
Five months will intervene between
the present time and the November
election. A sufficient time for the due
consideration of the difficulties which
seem to be perplexing the Republican
party of our State. The ticket nomi
nated at Harrisburg has the .sanction
of prior party usage, and ordinarily
would receive the support of all con
sistent Republicans. But it is con
fronted with a second ticket, professed
ly Independent Republican, which
claims to be equally zealous in the
cause of Republicanism as the other.
If the "secondticket shall develop any
considerable following; it will defeat
the regular or Harrisburg ticket and
give success to the Democrats. The,
,
situation is easy of comprehension, and
it will devolve upon the voters who aim
to so vote as to protect the best inter
ests of the whole people, to consider
well the responsibility thus thrust upon
them. There is no cause for hasty
conclusions_ or hasty committals.
Wait and see what future develop
ments may demonstrate. - The people
will no doubt have an opportunity to
See, and to hear the candidates upon
both tickets in defence of their rela
tions to the purty andi Republican
principles. Before any Republican
should commit himself to the support
of the Independent ticket he should be
convinced that sufficient cause exists
for so casting his vote as to contri
bute to the defeat of his party and to
the success of a party with which he
does not hold a po)itical sentiment in
common. Our own course shall be
guided entirely by these considera
tions. We yet entertain, a hope that
there may he an amicable 'adjustment
of existingparty divisions and that we
shall have but one ticket presented to
us at the polls. Were 'it not for the
animosities existing between ambitious
party leaders,' the whole difficulty
might be easily adjusted.? Bu r t while
the party is threatened, 'both on the
one hand and on the other with dis
trnction, if there is any yielding of the
respective following of .the political
bosses, there is little prospect of any
"let up" of the' inen who have their
hand on the machinery of organization
on either hand.'. : lf our United States
Senators would lattend to their
legiti
mate dutieti and permit the Republican'
party-of Pennsylvania to take care of
itself, filt would be well.. It would be
united and harmonious, and on the
sure road to success.
If the party could ignore them and
keep them out of the canvass it would
get along much better. 'lt has always
been distasteful to us, as we have a
right to prilume it has to very many
othte that after we had worked hard

cause, the„. result of all our:.'-`,:;effotte

polities' syndicate organized to usurp
an unfair and tyranical rulership over
the party, while in mating our vote
we had but the one motive of promo
ting the general good. And then to
be told; if we complain of this,. that we
can't be recognized.* a good. Repub.' ,
lican, makes the situation still more
aggravating:: -If - ivabbieet to United
States Senator Or to any member of
.the party - cramming a whole State dele- .
gation to a Natienal convention down
into his pocket under the unit rule, and
delivering 'them blindfolded to be
wielded es a machine in his hands to
enable him to ostracise us after we
have done our beat for party success,
we are told we must be excluded from,
i
the party councils, that we are - only
wanted when it =comes time to -vote.
Thousands of Republicans in the State
have stood this kind of treatment for
years, and have condoned" o contri
bute to the success of the patty, as we
have done, and shall do - ndw. We
can better afford to incur risk of
curing these evils by r asserting our con
victions
and 'our influence *Rhin the
party, than to render - ourselves power
less by stepping outside and defeating
not only ourselves but the party , also.,
Our advice is to our Mends to stay iii
and fight our battles and settle our
grivancei there. But the methods Mid
practices to Which vFe have referred
have brought on the difficulties and
divisions with whiclthe party is' now
confronted. We need not ask, who Is
to blame for it ? The answer is to ap.
parent too require the question. If the
Republicans of the State do not pre
pare to eliminate the party of Such
bossism when they elect a legislature ,
whiti s h will have the choice of the, next
United States Senator, they will fail of
.their duty. It can' best; 'be done by

The decrease in the public debt, in May
ans $13,846,253, though, thd. ~,Lill in the
Treasuryhaving been reduced kiy' ab o ut
$3,500,000, the Oricial repeirt of decrease
of debt less cash in Treasury was $19,371V
441.19. In other words, the revenues ex-;
ceedcd all expenditures except for the re
demption of bonds by that amount; but, es
Secretary Folger had made three calls
which matured in May, and rhad to take
up bonds to the amount of $14,2001090
under these and prior calls, ho diew some
money for that purpose from the: i-cash re
serves. More money was placed in - the
market, therefore, than was drawn from it
by taxation, although the receipts in May
were over $36,590,000, and were • $4,300,-
000 larger than in May of last year. In
eleven months of the fiscal year the decrease
in debt less cash in the Treasury has been
$139,123,655, or about $36,000,000 more
than it was in eleven months of the pre
vious year, and it is likely to reach $150,-
_OOO,OOO for the Swill year ending June 30.
`The receipts have already been $374,425,-
*3l, and it is now believed that they will
be at least $405,000,000 for the ' year.
This has never 'been exceeded except in
the fiscal year 1870, when the were
$411,000,000.
, A bill in equity haS been filed in the York
County Court by Jacob and Mary' Minter
against the officers and directors of the
Southern Pennsylvania Belief Aksociation
of Hanover, to recover $3000,0n policy
issued by the defendant company on, the
life of Elizabeth . .ICohktr, who died some
time before the dissolution of the company.
Complainants allege that they have paid
assessments amounting to. over $4OO. and
at the death of the insured , the whole ,
amount of the policy could'have. been raised
by the levying and collection of the assess
ments autholized by the regulations of the
coniptmy. The case is an interesting, one
from the fact that it will be a test as to thi)
responsibility of the officers, and if' decided
in favcir.of thinplaintiffs hundreds of similar
suits will felkiw.
A difficult•question of parlimentary and
constitutional lawhas been raised for the
consideration of the United States Senate.
Acting' ice President DaVid Davis being
desirous of a respite ' from official duty,
undertook to deputize Mr. Ingalls to 'act in
his stead. The 'question is whether. it is
competent for him to do so;` and whether
if Mr. Davis were to die and Mr. Arthur
were to be "removed,". Mr.' Ingalls, acting
as temporary President' of the Senate,
under such circumstances would be eligible,
as Mr. Micawber used to say,. for. transla
tion to the Presidency. It can hardly mat
ter much for all practical purposes - how
this problem should tte solved, but that its
argument should hae been raised shows
what a keen eve that Democrats have to
Presidential possibilities.
Senator Hill' condition is described by
an Eureka S rings' correspondent, who

It is said that the importatioarof potatoes,
a few weeks ago, did not pay Very well in
the end. At the rimy high prices which
prevailed when they began to come in,
there vas Someprofit in •the ''transaction,
but it was Scion found that the potatoes
were of a very inferior quality compared
with those grown in this county, and the
demand for theni became light. They were
mostly of a soggy, watery, dogs-eied sort,
and not bo compared , for a moment with

Four Republicans have been seated in the
House from southern states in place of 'four
Democnsta, whom the itlimunittee on
lifiectione, after a full and fair investigation
of their respective cases, reported as hailrig
been declared elected through fraud and
unlawful methods: In.the case of Lynch
vs. Chalmersilotthe sixth district of Miss
issippi, in which .Lynch, was seated by the
House a month since,. the fraud upon which
Chalmer's certificate of hlection rested. Was
se palpable :the ;Deariocrats made but a
feeble resistance in seating the contestant.
The Democratic 'press, especially of..the
South, came down upon the House 'with
terrible severity for sitting in their seats
and permitting one of their number to be
unseated while they hid tfle power- to break
a quorum and, to have prevented nail*
This spurred the - minority to resolve inn
secret caucus that in the other cases' which
were to follow Ithey would fillibuster to pre
vent action %kin them. The first case in
which they put their tactics into operation
was that of Mackey vs. O'Connor, of the
second South Carolina district. ,The case
was called-up in regular order= Saturday,
May 20th, when Mr. Randall raised the
question of consideration, and called for the
yeas and naywupen the question, and they
were ordered. This move was for the pur
pose of testing whether there was a quorum
of Republicans present. On the conclusion
of the call of the roll, the Demegrats
having refused to vote, the House.,, was
foimd to be without a quorum. A call of
the House was ordered,_, and the doors
closed. A 4 unsuccessful effort to-find a
majority oE:Republicans, induced them to
dispens with 'further _proceedings under
the call and to move an adjournment until
Monday following. Every absent Republi
can was telegraphed for, and within three
days a quorum was present. But the Dem
ocrats still had the power to obstruct the
.E
admit of the House by dilatory motions, as
the rules prescribed no limit to the privi
lege. After a fruitless struggle of a week
the. Republicans determined to amend the
rules sons to cut off the power to obstruct
the action of the House' upon a question of
constitutional right involving the right of a
ineinber, declared duly elected, to occupy a
sent in the House. They, accomplished the
adoption of the rule on Monday last. When
the Democrats saw that they were defeated, i
their wrath was unbounded. Randall
ranted and roared, Beltzhoover belched,
Cox danced a pigeon-wing around Miller,
of Pennsylvania, Springer, of .Illinois,
sprung a leak, and there was hot blood on
the Democratic side generally. But Repub
lican patience had become exhausted, and
they adopted the rule, wiff then moved an
adjournment for the day. On Tuesday,
after occupying nearly the entire day in
debate, in which both sides had an opportu
nity of presenting arguments to go upon the
Record, the previous question was ordered
and the main question breught to vote, re
sulting in ',seating Mr. Mackey. There
were two other' cases ;which had been re
, ported in favor of the contestants, and the
Republicans determined to proceed with
them at once. These wore the case of
Bisbee vs. Finley, of the second district of
Florida, and Lowe vs. Wheeler, of the
eighth district of
,Alabaina. The first was
'taken up on Wednesday morning, and con
cluded Thursday 'evening, and Mr: Bisbee
iswoni in. The second was taken up on
Friday morning and conchided on Saturday,
and. Mr. Lowe sworn in. The dispatch
with which the last two cases were disposed
of is due to the new rule, which is entirely
just, and should have been tulcipted long,
long ago. _

BEAVER'S KEY NOTE

• .
UPZN*D.
- Haeritsnuno,, June 3.--General
Beaver, in a speech here to-night sound
ed the key -note of the' campaign and
cried, fi ght to the ': bitter end. The
General reached here from Columbia at
8.40 o'clock and was met at the depot
by the Young Men's ißepublican Club .
rigd 7 the consolidated cokqed 4011 P/ of
the ,City,'; each) having bands of music.
During-thelfternoon Senator' Dlivierc
Republican nominee for. Lieutenant-
Governor, alivfd here in response. to
a te'egram of nvitation, requesting him
to participate in , the demonStration,
Ho, with State Trensurer Bailey, were
at the depot in a barouch, and- when
General Beaver arrived he got in with
therm and rode throughthe line, which
- extended from 'the Lochiel Hotet to the
depot; Red lights in profusion lit up'
the Beene, and ithe cheering, as the
baronet) passed by, was very hearty.
After. General Beaver had entered the
,
hotel, ` the clubs massed on Market street,
1 and he was serenaded by both, bands;
the crowd cheering lustily for
meanwhile. When the noise had subsid.
ed Captain George G. Boyer, President
of the Young Men's . .Republic in Club,
stepped to the portico of the Lochiel,
and said: "Fellow• citizens, permit me,
on behalf of .the Young Men's Club, to
make an explanation. When the Re
publican ticket was nominated: at Ear
nslurrg, the club, believing the nomina
tions were in accordance with the true
principles of Republicanism; ' endorsed
them. The Philadelphia Press spread
it broadeast r that.the club had endorsed ,
the Independent nominatims at Phila.'
delphia. In order to , correct this mis
take we have prevailed on . General
Beaver to meet us here this evening,
and he has accepted our serenade 1
tendered to him as a man of honor,
worth and ability, and fit' lead the
grand old Republiran party for Gov
ernor. ' General Beaver then
stepped forward, he was greeted with
prolonged cheers, •
THE GENE..IIAL I B . SPEECH
,'Leaning upon his crutches, he looked
out ovei the assembled thousands, and
said:. 'Gentlemen: I accept this com
pliment, betokening, as it does, the
loyalty of the good Republican people
of. Harrisburg. I do' not accept it as
personal, "hut when an_ anonynions
correspondent attacks you, it is right
to show where you stand. , It is now
too early to declare
,yourselves in a
campsign which 4111°114 - Ts Ali that is
dear toyou. All the issues that we
have fought and strived for (Cheers)
The time has not arrived when Repub
lican.; are ready to hand over the Gov
ernment of the State - and Nation to a
party which does, not represent a
pasticle of the purity involved in the
principles cf Republicaism. The lines.
of battle have not yet been' drawn, but
When they are, the Republican party
will be found to be the amacliing Party.
No defense in this Carnpaig,n,. it s you
please. It means attack and _victory—,
that's what we fighb for, and thstN4 how
we will win. From Like Erie to the Dele
waie the same spirit animates the peo
ple as it does you to-night. and you
touch elbows with true Republicans all
over the State. We have known 'dig
aflrection before, but did you ever know
it to succeed? [Cries of .''"No! No!"]
The people of Pennsylvdnia are for
fair, play,!md haVe never gone back on
themselves, and have always given a
wise government. Ali, believe that our
Civil Service is ; well adininistered.
There 'is no fault to' find with the finan:
ces. - it will be seen before we finish
this campaion what the motives .are
that influenced thin faction to take up
arms and fire in the rear. We have
heard that fire in the rear before and
on our flanks. Our, faces are set to
the foci. An attack' on the flanks is
demoralizing, sometimes, but not this
year. I never was 'in the habit of
being scared much, and I confess I am
not in this campaign._ The heavy
artillery has all been fired on the other°
side, and it did not amount to much:
The line of battle , will be formed on
June 28. L From the skirmishers before
me. I believe we will `walk over the
other fellows. You are in 'sympathy
with the great mass of the people, and
I,know victory will crown us in No
vember neat.. It . is well foryou to be
stirred up. The interests of this city
are stirred up. The National interests
arnstirred up. If. you are ready for a
loss of power— . .to place this -Govern
nient in the hands of the Democracy—
drop your hands. .What they call the
tail of the Republican ticketit has
been chopped off lately' (Laughter)--is
all important, and there are vital inter
ests in the election of. a . Congressman
at-Large. '"his vote will be needed at .
Washington, in vital tatiff issues. Let
us. make no mistake on the issues. Let
us fight our own battles. I call upon
you here to-night to give yourselves to
the interests involved in this. contest,
and let us have such a victory on next
November as will teach factionists to
do their fighting in the party lines , and
not drag their quarrels before the
whole world. (Cheers.) I thank you
for your kindness to me.. Good night.
Gen. Bea;;Ter then introduced his .
colleague on the ticket, Senator Davies,
who referred to the fact that it - wasl i the
Young Men's Republican Club of Har- :
risburg which started the fightin Penn
sylvania for Hoyt in 1878, and for the
lamented Garfield in 1880, both of
which were victories. He asked if there,
were any reasons why a true Republi?
can should not vote for General Beayer
whose nomination was not only made
by the people before the Convention
met, but pride at the Convention in
accord with all precedents from
Curtin to thepresent official. Has any
thing that hebas done, or is there any
trait of his character against hini ? I
believe that all Republicans all over
the State will work together to -elect
him, and theßepublicans Of Bradford
expect to greet_ the Republibans of
Dauphin ' with the same old time
majority that always 'characterized us
as staunch and loyal. [Cheers]. I
bid you good night.
After music by the bands, General
'Beaver and Senator Davies held a re
ception at the ' Loethiel Hotel, and
greeted the many who called 'on them.
As the preliminary :demonatratiou of
the:eampaign; this was certainly the
largest that has ever taken place in
Harrisburg.

A - Philadelphia correvondent of the
New York herald writes: It has been
stated to your correspondent here this
evening, on the authority of an intimate
personal friend of Senator Ponald
Cameron, that he, is not a candidate for

foreseen could induce him to `spin

that the Senator's fe( lings in the-}matter
