'Ex-Governor Hendricks asserted that the
Democrats will certainly carry.lndiann and
elect a majority ,of the members of the
Legislature, and then, ho says, Ilthe Tem . -
perance bill wilt either be killed or allowed
to die a natural death from inertia."

aimed at by_ the "Independents" are to
:he achieved thimigh the election of the
Democratic ticket. That is something no
one else can see. It is not in the wood.—
Pittston Gazette.
Chauncey F. 7 Black's qualifications for
tlio.offiee of Lientenant-Gaernor, summed
up from original sources, •seem to be that
he is an editorial scold on the New York
Sun, is a son Of Judge Black, is handsOme,
and, like General Hancock; .weighs two
hundred and fifty pounds. .
Upon the return of the President, the
Assistant Secretary. of 'War, provided for
by an net of the last session of Congress,
will be appointed. The matter has not yet
been considered by the President, but the
impression is that a civilian rand not an
army officer will be appointed':
.;
• The Pittiton Gazette saYft that a gentle
man who has been traveling thiough Frank
lin county gives it as his *Men thnt Stew
art.
will not poll over six hundred 'votes in
that county. That is not a very heavy cots
for a candidate to get in his own home coun
ty. And t the very extrtuirdiruiry part
about it is that Stewart's father will vote
for General Beaver.
The contract for the lease of is portion of
- the Yellowstone Park, Dakota, to C. T?
Hobart, John Douglas, for a period of ten
years, was approved Friday by,' the acting
Secretary, Joslyn. These geritlemen will
erect hotels, run stage lines„ Mid in other
ways mak' :/ o general improvements, with the
view of accommodating the m ii i itors. The
annual rental will be' merely, nominal, in
consideration of the improve
mentsextensive,
made by the lessees. -
The pressure for the assistant secretary
ships of the War and Navy departments
diies not seem "to be great. The salary
fixed is 0,500 a year. Congresi evidently
anticipated that the President would, make
- these . apoointments before the Senate again
convened, for the law contains a proviso
that if 'such assistant secretarys shill be
first appointed during the recess of the
Senate, that salaries may, be paid them
until the end of the .next,i session of the
Senate.
In no possible way would the election of
any candidate for Governor affect the tariff
question.—Tilkes-Barre Recol. • What
trash! A Democratic Governor, elected on
a "tariff for revenue only" p'atform, if an
honorable man, would in acting upon a bill
apportioning anew the Congressional dis
tricts of the State, be governed by the inter
ests of his party. And whit sort of. o than
would such a Goyernor be likely to name as
United States Senator, in case a vacancy
were to be filled by appointment :—Pittston
Gazette.
The announcement that a company has,
been formed for the riurpose of sending
dressed meat from the western cattle mar
kets to the eastern centres of consumption,
will be received with great,satisfaction by
those to whom the prevailing high price of
meat is a serious item in the expense of liv
ing, for it holds out a promise ot cheaper
meat in the future. That the plan is fea
sible is proved by the success of 'the trans
atlantic shipments, and the expectation
that a reduction of prices can in this way
be effected is grounded in reason.
From all indications it is not at all proba
ble that Hon. C. C. Jadwin's successionlin
Congress will be disputed. • The custom has
been to give the member from this diStrict
more than one term and for a very good
reason. During the first two years in Con
gress it is hardly possible for the member
to become more than just acquainted with
the condition of affairs there and the work
of the committees. A second term is :ctin
sidered necessary 'to give any member a
fair chance. Mr. Jadwin :has been very
active in looking after the interests of the
people, and especially of the soldiers.l--Troy
Gazette.
AccOrding to War
. Department figures,
says the North American, considerably
o'er five hundred thousand citizens are
rated as . deserters from the army, bein g a
proportion of about one in four of the tonal
number engaged in the suppression of the
rebellion, As a matter of course many' of
these desertions were merely technical, and
during the recent sessions several -pricato
bills were introduced for the relief of some
of•the alleged delinquents. If the matter
stopped there, it might not be' of sufficient
importance to demand comment, but when
it is known that this process opens the way
- to the public Treasury and- restores claims
- for Pay and allowances, it will occur to
many People that further steps in this direc
tke Amid be taken with Oat care: The
are that otherwise a gigantic
raid on the national maxima may be look
ed for. It is well enough `to relieve a man
from the consequences of his error, so far
as penalty is concerned, but to give him a
bonus in addition is the very prodigality. of
clemency.

The seventh congtvnional district, com
prising Mont gomery and -the lower part, of
Buda vanity, aftera protracted
,straggle,
on Monday last nominated Hon. J. Newton
Evans in place of Mr. Godschalk, tho pres
ent member, for Congress. •
k now thought that thiknumber of em
igrants to arrive at Now York during the
current year will fall considerably short of
the orig,inal estimates, theral having been a
considerable falling -off in . 'arrivals for the
couple of months last past. The present
calculation is that from now . until the end
of the year we cannot expect more than
150,090 at the outside, so that less than half
a million will have'arrived at that 'port for
the year. The previous semi-official esti
mates, it will be remembered, ran up to at
least 750,00().
=I
Four i years ago Wayne comity not only
passed resolutions in her Republican county
conveption, complimentary to Col. Overton,
our then member of Congress, but instruct
ed her conferees for him. Our own con
vention held on Tuesday last, by some in
excusable overi3ixht forgot' ta even compli
ment Mr. Jadwin, our present member of
Congress, for faithful service to his constit
uents. It would have at least been becom
ing and courteous to have thanked Mr.
Jadwin for his votes on the river and har
bor bill, and for his efforts in behalf of the
maimed soldiers of his district.
• .It is probable that many of the proud but
'debt-bm,lened nations of the old world
will note with amazement that dur
ing the summer month of August, when our
entire community seemed given up toyest
and recreation, the grand work of wiping
out our national, debt was going on silently
but swiftly at a stupendous pace. Taking
working-day it twelve hours, the process
of reduction was carried out at the rate of
a fraction over forty-three thousand and
ten dollars per hour, or nearly seven hun
dred and seventeen do ' firs per minute, the
grand total for the month being about Six
teen millions-of dollars. It ;night be ad
mitted that thii is not had work for a peo.
ple during their .vacation period. •
"Train up a child in the way it "should
go," is a potent suggestion, says the North
American, and one which if carefully at
tended to is likely to be significant in its
results. ,It ii therefore with pain that we
notice a repert from West Point, Miss., ,
where, at an entertainment to t?aise funds
for paying the fines of some conilicted, bal
lot-box stuffers, a beautiful little to
slow music, waved the "bonnie, blue flag,"
shouting, "Unfurl it, waveit, and forever!"
Are the dying embers of secession t.ci t - lie
fanned into a flame, and by a future Amer
inn mother, far the aid and comfbit of
cowardly violators of the• Constitution'And
trespassers. upon the palladium of our liber
ties? Columbia forbid!
Bank burglary, says the Fidladelphia
North American, as a fine art,' has Made
rapid strides in the past few years, not only
in its methods but in its men. The burly
ruffian with a crowbar and a file lias been
supplanted by the sleek, broadcloth attired,
plausible villain, who is almost certain to
be a Sunday-schoOl teacher and a shining
light in his : community. The Kewanee
Bank robbery is an apt
_illustration. i All
the parties concerned held responsible:. pOsi
dons and were ostensibly engaged in peace
ful commercial pursuits; yet they were sor
did, soulless scoundrels, without a spark of
the brute courage possessed by the danger
ous classes, as it is customary to term those
who risk their lives in the 'pmseention of
their nefarious designs. For men who thus
`betray their trusts mere imprisonment is I
not sufficient; the public igominy of the lash
and the pillory would not be too severe a.
penally. ;
Thel Keely motor is coming tethe front
again.l At a meeting of parties interested,
held in Philadelphia recently, the inven
tor announced that In had at lad Overcome
the difficulties of his invention, and that the
work on his motor was practically finished
with the exception of applying the power
to the various machines to be run by its
power.. Thereupon the stockholders present
- voted to present him with $l,OOO cash and
1,500 shares of stock. 'Touched by this
generous evidence of confidence, Mr. Keely
blandly promised to thoroughly impart and
explain all the 'secrets of his invention to
Mr. Boekel, who was • appointed by the
courts some time ago, at the request of , the
stockholders, to receive them. Thus every
thing is lovely once more.: The'only draw
back to the pleasing prospect is the fact
that a time so far away as thelOth of De
cember is named as the day when the great
secret shall .1):3 revealed. That date, ac
cording to the`calendar,• falls on Sunday,
and a great many things may happen nienn
tinfe.
The sublimity of impudence has been at-'.
tained by Mr. Oscar Wilde,` in ( writing or'
saying to . the New Yoriz Sun thdt in his op
inion "a most serious problem for - thw
American people to consider is the culti
vatiou of better manners of its people."
This isn't very good English, tol, be written
by an Englishman who sets up for a critic;
but laying aside the lack of felicity in
pressing his meaning, Mr. Wil44 is anent
the last person in the world to ine prating
about good breeding, good manners; and
that sort of thing. To say nothing of the
bad taste of exhibiting oneself in an un
usual costume for money,—for that -is ex
actly what his so called lecturing amounts
to, and of which no true gentleman would
be guilty,—Mr. Wilde is himself singularly
wanting in the modesty, the graces,4your
tesies, and regards for the feelings and :
tastes of others, which are essential to what;
is for brevity sake called "manners," Be
sides, his big teeth : are not very- well kept,
and his finger nails are almost uniformly
dirty.
The °publican County Convention
held on uesday last passed off, qiiiet
ly and ha moniously- . The candidates
are all reput'able and good men. , Mr.
Coburn having carried a majority, of
the delegates of the East, Col. Aiers
the Centre and Capt. Mitchell the
West, they were accorded the nomina
tion for Representatives. :..' Nelson, E.
Gilbert, the old wheel-horse of Frank
lin, was accorded the nomination for
Jury Commissioner without Oppcisition.
Dr. C. H. Scott, the present Coro
ner was renominated, there being no
opposition.
The ticket is a strong one and will
be triumphantly elected, Mr. Leßoy
Holcomb, of Leßoy, though he did not
carry , imajority of the
. western towns,
showed that his :immediate neighbor
hood respected him and; trusted in him.
The two Cantons, Leßoy; Granville,
Franklin and Barclay-, the districts'Aff
Ins most familiar acquaintance were
all for, him, besides a number of other
districts. That he was not nominated
reflects nothing to his , discredit, and he
and his friends feel gratified we his
exhibition of personal strength for the
nomination of representative, . •
We trust there will be no kicking
this year.

Mr. McPherson, cliairnian- of the
Committee on Resolutions then read
the'iep)rt of the Committee:as follows.,
whichwas adopted: -.
Resoliccl, That we, the 'Republicans of,
Bradford county in_ convention assembled,
do re-affirm' our devotion to the principles
of the Republican party.; and claim that
slavery abolished, a rebellion overthrown,
the South re-united and reconstructed, specie
payment resumed, hard times endured, and
prosperity regained did not end its mission,
but that the best interests and most genu
ine reforms of the future, demand its Con
tinued:supremacy in both State and nation.
ReScilred, That in the- State of Pennsyl
vania wheroc`plcksperity for many years has
resultbd, from a protective tariff, any
attempt . by its artful enemies tc;,divide the
ißepublican Party (which party has always
been the friend of protection), Or to bring
the Democratic party into power (Which
party has always. been the friend of free
trade), should be oppesed to the utmost by
all wise, far-seeing and prudent inen.' • .
Resolred, That we heartily • enclonte the
platform of -the Republican State Canyon-
Lion, and believe that it respected 016 pop
ular will in the seleCtion of candidates,' pas
sensing in an eminent degree fitness for their
respective placeS upon, the 'ticket, ' which
should secure for it the earnest support of
all true republicans. That in the selection
of the Hon. W. T. Davies for Lieutenant=
Governor, Bradford county feels 'justly
honored ; and that his' friends should rally
tolhe support of Gen. Beaver and the en
tire State tioket, and thereby shoW that
this county appreciates the honor conferred
by the State in his - nomination. I
Resolved, That as- the representatiies of
the republican sentiment of Bradford cannty
we declare that it is the duty of the legisla
ture to submit to a vote of .the people, a
proposition to so amend - the constitution of
the State as to prohibit the manufacture
and sale of intoxicnting liquors, except for
nieircinal and mechanical purposes.
..
At the conclusion of the reading of
the resolutions, on motion the It.;onven-
Lion anjournpd sine die.

The prohibition question is; likely to play
an important part in the. Tennessee- cam

Walt Whitman's- Lcares of Grass
I asked the wife of a brilliant author, who
is an intimate friend of Walt Whitman,
"What sort of mania ho ?" • "He is a man
of the greatest refinement " in Conversation,
and, Ilielieve, in life also—a man to whoni
children and dumb animals „are always at
tracted." • But she added, "I regret that
ho has chosen to publish certain writings of
his, although d tun sure they were Written
With pure intention; they are to be under
stOod symbolically." Ainerieans.have gazed
astonished at the popularity of Walt Whit
man, Bret 'Tarte and Joaquin ,:'wfiller in En-

British :aristocracy doubtless finds - smile- •
thing ;refreshing in the wild, rough "bfirba
rie ypwps" of the three,:just as blasr city
people enjoy the utter change. of "camping
out" in the heart of uncivil Nattn*. The
familiar denizens of the. woods and "moun
tings" are at a loss to untlerstand their
charms for "city folks." Walt Whitman
has written some things for' decent People
to skip, as in walking they skip a .mud-hole
instead of - wading through. it. a person
whose pental perceptions .. are not alert
enough to discern a mud-hole in print, and
to skip it without i touching.is a person Who
ought'not to have learned to read or,ought,
rather, to have' completed that education.
He could put in his time - better chopping
1 wood. But Whitman has written other
things that have the primeval, unadorned
beauty of Greek sculptures. " These are
more enjoyed in England than' here, . be
