IIN6IICIIPIMUMB, SATURDAY, MAY 29th REPUHLICAN Primary Election next Saturday. SAMUEL H. MILLER, ESQ., of Mercer, is announced in the papers of that county, as a candidate for the Repub lican nomination for Congress. HORACE MAYNARD, of Tennessee, and late Minister to Turkey, has been appointed Postmaster General in place of Mr. Key, transferred to a judgeship Gen. Longstreet, of Louisiana, succeeds Mr. Maynard as Minister to Turkey. EVERY delegate from Philadelphia to the Chicago Convention bat one, declares that he is opposed to Grant's nomination, but only three or four of them at the same time have the cour age to say they will not be bound by the unit rale. WANT of space prevents the appear ing of many matters this week, among tbem a communication censuring the holding back of the names appointed as census enumerators in this county. A list of these appointments will be seen in onr paper this week. REPRESENTATIVE John W. Stephens, of Washington county, who had an nounced himself as a candidate for re nomination, has been compelled to print a card of withdrawal. He voted against the expulsion of PetrofF, and this was made an issue against him. SENATOR Don Cameron pronounces the reported defection in the Philadel phia delegation "all bosh," and reiter ates his oft repeated declaration that the Pennsylvania delegation will cast its vote for Grant, and that the ex-Pres ident will be nominated by acclama tion. EVERY Republican in the county should be at the Primary next Satur day. We nominate for Legislative of fices this year, and they are the men who make oar laws, and should be hon est men, with clear records, now and * in the past, both personally and politi cally. THE Pittsburgh Dispatch came to us last week in a new dress and changed to an eight-page paper, cat and trimmed in good style. It has also made ar rangements to have the earliest news by cable, and in other respects will be increased in interest. This enterprise of the Dispatch editors is in advance of its cotemporaries and is worthy of all commendation and patronage. A CORRESPONDENT of the Millerstown Herald, of last week, pats the contest going on for Congress in this county as follows: "Robinson is making desperate ef forts to carry this county at the com ing Primaries, bat McJankin will beat him 1,000 votes. Cameron—Kemble —Rumberger—Petroff—Salterism will salt Robinson's goose for him. Any man who favored the pardon of these roosters need never look an honest buckwheat in the face." Hon. J. D. MCJUNKIN, candidate for Congress in this district, is a resi dent of Batler, where be is actively en gaged in the practice of his profession. He is a first-class lawyer and a gentle man of caltare, possessing an abund ance of sound common sense, anited with fine business qualifications and unimpeachable personal integrity. He is not a wire-working politician, but a strong partizan, inflexible in principles, and incorruptible, and would make such a representative as the Republi cans of this district would delight to honor. He will recieve many votes in this community.— Petrolia Record, May 22. THERE is some absurd talk about that Grant will gain more than he will lose by the abrogation of the unit rule; that there are a number of Grant dele gates tied up by instructions from their States for Blaine. This is all moon shine. There isn't, so far as we have been able to learn, a Blaine delegate elected to the Chicago convention who hasn't a Blaine district behind him, and there are a good many delegates for Grant, who have anti-Grant dis tricts behind tbem. It is said that perhaps if Blaine does not make opposition to the unit rule he may get the entire vote of Pennsylvania, for Senator Cameron has been given notico that the Philadelphia delegates are for Blaine, but will observe the unit rule if Cameron will abandon Grant and go for Blaine. This hasn't even the con sistency of moonshine. If the dele gates from Pennsylvania are for Blaine tot them vote for him, and let those who are for Grant vote lor him, but we hope tbey will all let the unit rule go to the infernal regions, or the Cincin nati convention, which is only a short remove therefrom. The Republican party wants no such tyranny about its house.— Crawford Journal. ONLY two States are yet to choose delegates to the National Republican Convention, Louisiana, 16 votes, and Colorado fi, being but 22 delegates vet to be chosen. The friends of Gen. Grant claim be has already enough to nominate him on the first ballot. But this is claiming a solid vote for him under the "unit rule," from New York, Pennsylvania and Illinois. This we still hope and believe will not be al lowed. Should he be nominated by this unheard of wrong it at once pre sents a most serious question to the Convention, and to what we believe, a great majority of the Republican peo ple of the Nation. THE great contest at Chicago, says the Crawford Journal, will be over the Unit Rule. Any Pennsylvania del egate representing a Blaine district who votes for the enforcement of that rule, which will make him a cipher in the Convention, disfranchise bis district, and permit one man to throw the entire vote of the State, will vio late a solemn trust. A delegate to be a Blaine man must vote for a Blaine candidate for chairman, and then against a rule which will stifle bis vote as a delegate. The unit rule has never been adopted in a National Re publican Convention. There is neither precedent nor justification for it, and any delegate from this State who votes for it votes to disfranchise himself and his constituents. Be on Guard. We caution the Republican voters of the county to be on their guard as to last hour reports at the coming pri mary. Desperate candidates for nom ination, knowing that they are mis trusted, have and may start falsehoods on their competitors when too late to be contradicted. All that is good or bad of a candidate is generally known soon after he is announced, and it is only the candidate that fears defeat, and seeks improper means for his own sake, who will put or cause to be put in circulation any unfair or untrue stories about his opponents. A Safe Rule. If a representative betrays his peo ple once, that was his fault; but if allowed to betray them twice, that will be their fault. Apply this to the contest for the Congressional nomina tion in this county, to be decided on next Saturday, and we do not see how there can be any doubt as to the result. If a majority decided to again trust a candidate who once violated pledges it must be that the people have changed, or have forgotten, or are in different as to their own interests and honor. Blaine and Growo —in Lancaster County. The Republicans of old Lancaster county, this State, held their Primary election last Saturday. Iu accordance with a resolution of their County Committee they voted upon the ques tions of the Presidency and the United State Senator to lie elected by the Legislature next winter. This was in addition to voting for their candidates for county officers. The result is that Blaine has beaten Grant in old Lancaster county from three to four thousand votes, and Grov»-e, for next United States Senator, beats Quay just about as many. A False Report. We understand that it is being cir culated that the County Committee at its last meeting passing a resolution allowing Democrats to vote at the Primaries on Saturday. This is abso lutely false. No such thing was done. The matter was talked of by some men here in the Committee, but no action taken on it. Our old rule is therefore in force, as we said last week. That rule says, None but Republicans shall he allowed to role. It is still iu force, and it only. If the Committee had changed it the change would havo been published So let the Republi cans be on their guard, and not believe any reports or orders on this point, let them come from what quarter they may. Some candidates are said to be arranging to get Democratic votes at the coming Primary and asserting the Committee allowed it, and hence we again contradict it and caution all. Let there be a fair Republican primary, and let there also lie good and honest Republicans sent in as Return Judges with the votes. This latter is very important, and we hope good men will be selected as the Return Judges from all the districts to the County Convention. REPUBLICAN PRIMARY. Next Saturday is the day for the Republicans of this county to meet and decide among themselves who of the different candidates, for the different offices to fill this fall, they think the best to put in nomination. We decide by the popular vote, and the candidate having the greatest number of votes is entitled, under our system, to a nomin ation—if all is fairly done. How im portant then the primary is, must be seen by all. No Republican wants to vote in the fall for a bad or unfit candi date for any office. The way to pre vent such from being nominated is for all to turn out to the primary. The great mass of the voters are presumed to be intelligent and honest, and to have only the public good at heart. The Republicans of Butler county have the honor and credit of their party and their county at heart, and they want faithful and competent persons to rep resent them in the legislative halls and in all places. If they have made mis takes in the past they do not want to I make any now. A full turn out to the I primary of all the tax paying voters of CUisien: ISatteir, s9*., 3E«ff 28, tSSfI. tlie county generally procures satisfac tion. Let there then be a full turn out an«l a fair expression at our primary on Saturday next. IT is said that eertain Democrats of Butler have promised the Cameron ring a heavy vote at the primaries in this place next Saturday. If this is true the consideration will show itself in time. In the meantime the Millers town Republicans should be consulted about it. The above we find in the Millerstown Herald, of last Saturday, and insert here for the purpose of calling the at tention of the Republicans of that place to the same. We hope there may be no foundation for it, yet we have other wise heard the same report, and there fore take occasion to Fay to all inter- I ested, that a Democratic vote cast at Millerstown, or any other place, at our Primaries on Saturday, will only get the candidates profiting by it into trouble. The "Cameron ring, 'as used in the above, means Mr. Thomas Rob inson and some of the wire-workers in his interest. Let there be a fair and square Republican vote cast and all will be well. The present Republican vote of Millerstown and Donegal town ship is pretty well known, and is not the half of what it was some two years ago. More than half of all parties have left that section for the upper oil re gions within the last two years, and the true Republican vote of Millerstown and Donegal township can now l»e as well defined as in other sections of the county. So let it be seen that the "cer tain Democrats of Butler" caunot fulfill such promises. ILLINOIS. The Republican Convention for the State of Illinois assembled at Spring field, that State, on last week, and af ter methods even worse than those adopted in Pennsylvania, instructed the whole delegation of the State to vote as a unit in the Chicago National Convention for Qen. Grant. In place of letting the counties of the different districts of the State name the dele gates they wished to represent them in the National Convention, many of whom were for Blaine, the Convention, having a small Grant majority in it, passed a resolution giving its Chair man power to appoint a committee to name all of the delegates to the Chica go Convention, and the consequence was, an entire Grant delegation. The vote by which this greatest of any out rage we have yet seen was done, was close, being 389 for to 340 against. It seems to us that after that vote Gen. Grant should have immediately caused his name to be withdrawn from the contest. This was in his own State, where he now is, and with all the in fluence of State pride and of such aids as Senator Logan, but little more than a majority of the State could be forced into his support. As we said last week, if he is nominated at Chicago by the enforcement of this odious "unit rule" in Illinois, and upon the Pennsylvania and New York delegations, then we look for trouble. If, on the other hand, he is nominated fairly, all could cheer fully support him. This action in Illi nois may cast the nomination in his fa vor. CENSUS ENUMERATORS FOR BUTLER COITNTY.

The Petrolia Uncord, published at Petrolia, this county, is independent in politics and can therefore have only the public good in view. In its issue of last week in referring to the Republi can primaries, now soon to come oft", it makes the following suggestions which are worthy just now of a reading by the Republicans of this county : "Our first suggestion is iu regard to the necessity of giving a proper con sideration of the fitness of candidates. Let it be understood, to begin with, that no person can have any "claim" worth a moment's consideration to any office in the gift of his party that is not founded first of all on personal fit ness and qualification. By fitness we mean that he must be possessed of such downright and upright integrity as will render it sure that he will be proof against all corrupting influences. By qualifications we mean a degree of in telligence and ability sufficient for the creditable discharge of the duties of the office sought. No claim founded only on previous service to the party should bo entertained by a voter for a momeut, if these prerequisites are wanting in tho person who solicits support. It may help voters to decide . whom they ought to support, if they j will remember that the question for them to decide is not between the "claims" of the different claimants, but between the different claimants ! and the DEMANDS OE THE OFFICE If the voters of both parties would follow this suggestion, they would soon put an end to the disgraceful system of ring rule aud "machine government." ; A disregard of it will make a reform of the shamefully corrupt practices in connection with our public service im possible. Let voters disregard all "claims," then, except that of the per sonal fitness of the person who solicits their support. Our second suggestion is in regard to the importance of every voter, of both parties, with whom earnest gov ernment outweighs all other considera tions, attending the primary elections of their respective parties. Be sure that the "ring" will have out all the force it can muster. If honest men do not turn out and defeat them at the primaries, then none but riug candi dates will be nominated. Let no hon est voter, then, absent himself from the primary election of his party, for it is there alone that ring rule can be successfully opposed." After Illinois What? The Illinois Republican Convention concluded its delicate task yesterday by electing 42 Grant delegates to the National Convention. This was done in the grand style which so well befits the political boss. Senator Logan had played u[on the discords of the Con vention so lightly that they were al most transformed into harmonies, yet at the same time he consumated an outrage which must literally astound those who have imagined hitherto that the popular voice is omnipotent. Many of the National delegates in Il linois bad been chosen by their dis trict constituency. These, unless they were elected to support Gen. Grant, were coolly tossed aside by the com mittee of 10 Grant men to which was allotted the sacred duty of making up the roll of 42 delegates, and none were appointed except those who could be trusted. Delegates elected by the peo i pie were virtually told to go back to their constituents and tell them that Mr. Logan's committee did not choose to recognize their authority. But where will the Third-Termers get 400 votes upon the first ballot ? Giving Mr. Grant every State south of Mason and Dixon's Line, with the del egates of New York, Pennsylvania and Illinois intact, and he will have but 418 votes, which is only 39 more than the number required for a nomination. Now, glancing over the estimates made by the Grant calculators we find they concede 41 anti-Grant votes in the South, which is two more than enough to offset the 39 majority gained by giv ing Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois and the Solid South to Gen. Grant. But the Grant calculators also claim 20 votes in Indiana, Wisconsin and Massachusetts, and the auti-Third- Termers will have to counterbalance these by securing a similar number in Pennsylvania, New York or Illinois, or from the South in excess of the 41 which are already conceded by the (irant men to Blaine and Sherman. So far we have taken their own figures. Now, let us dispute with tbem the complete delegations of Pennsylvania and New York, and we find that a change of 10 votes from their column to the anti-Third-Term column will dis sipate the majority of 20 figured out. Can these 10 votes be secured '( We are assured they can, for more than that number of delegates in this State alone have solemnly declared that they will not support the Third Term can didate, to say nothing of nearly as many similar declarations of New York delegates of the most emphatic character And the unit rule will not help them, for its adoption would only benefit them in New York and Penn sylvania, while it would lose them in other States more than they would gain in these two. We do not yet see that the anti-Third-Tenn men have reason for despondency, but on the other hand, the above figures which are mainly based on Grant estimates, show that there is every reason for cheerfulness, proving conclusively, as they do, that Gen. Grant cannot be nominated on the first ballot, upon which his friends place all their de pendence.—Pittsburgh J)ispatch. Census of 1883. The work of taking the census will begin in June, and beads of families will do well to prepare themselves for a vigorous "pumping," as it will be the duty of the enumerators to find out the name of each person in the family ; the color, sex and age of each person ; the relationship of each person to bead of family ; what persons are single, if any, were married during the census year; get a statement of the sickness or temporary disability of any person at the time of the enumerator's visit; if there be any blind, deaf and dumb, idiot, insane, maimed, crippled or bed-ridden persons in the family : how many attend school within the census year; if there are any who can not read or write ; the place of birth of each person and that of his or her father or mother. All persons will be included in this enumeration who are living on June I, 1880, as well as members of fami lies who may die after that time, but children who are born after that date will lie omitted, 'ihe questions as to occupation and the ability to read and write are not to be asked with regard to childred under tea years of age. Tha Liability of National Banks for Special Deposits. A quite recent decision by tho Uni ted States Supreme Court in an action against the First National Hank, of Carlisle, Pennsylvania, settles one thing, viz: that a National Hank may as a part of its legitimate business, re ceive special deposits of securities, etc , either with or without compensation, ami that whether it is or is not paid for the service rendered, the bank will be liable for the loss of such securities resulting from negligence. In the case referred to, the complainant had depos ited with the bank for safe keeping $4,- 000 in United States bonds. The cash ier gave a receipt for them, ami was iu the habit of cutting oil" the coupons as they became due, collecting them and placing the proceeds to its credit on the books of the bank. The officers of the bank were accustomed to receive like deposits from other persons. No charge was made for this service. The bank was a bailee without reward. These facts were known to the Directors. The plaintiff's bonds were stolen, and suit was brought for their value. The jury found that the offi ers of the bank were cognizant of all the material facts rcla ling to the receiving and keeping of the deposits, and that the loss was due to gross negligence on the part of the officers. On these facts, the Supreme Court holds the bank liable. If a bank, says the opinion, be accustomed to take such deposits as the one here in ques tion, and this is known aud acquiesced in by the Directors, and the property deposited is lost by the gross negli gence of the bailee, a liability ensues in like manner as if the deposit had been authorized by the terms of the charter. But, apart from general prin ciples, the National Banking act frees the question f rom doubt. This declares that after the lailure of a National Bank to pay its circulation notes, etc., "it shall not be lawful for the associa tion suffering the same to pay out any of its notes or bills, or otherwise pros ecute the busines of banking, except to receive and safely keep moneys belong ing to it, and to deliver special depos its." This implies clearly in the opin ion of the Supreme Court, that a Na tional Bank, as a part of its legitimate business, may receive such "special de posits," and th's implication is as ef fectual as an express declaration of the same thing would have been. "We do not mean," says the Court, that a Na tional Bank can convert itself into a pawn-broker's shop." But it is un doubtedly authorized to receive such securities as United States bonds, and, whether paid or not, is bound to exer cise due diligence for safe keeping. FUNERAL OP REV. BREADEN. The funeral of Rev. W. P. Breaden took place on Saturday, May 10th, 1880, at 10 o'clock. A long procession of people followed his remains from the house to the church where he so long preached. The church was filled to its utmost capacity by the people of his charge and the community. Of the members of the Presbytery there were present: Revs. Kerr, Jamison, Shaw, Ewing, Clark, McElree, Young, Gilfil lan, Ferguson and Black. There were also present Revs. Coulter and Mar shall, of the Presbyterian Church, and Revs. Clyde and Graham of the M. E. Church. After singing and reading the Scrip tures by Rev. Clark, some opening re marks were made upon "The True Min isterial Character and its Reward," from 1 Peter 5, 2-4. It was affirmed that Father Breaden filled out in a very large measure the description there given. After this, opportunity was given for voluntary remarks by the brethern present, which was at once embraced. Rev. Jamison spoke of the large con gregation gathered to pay respect to him. It proved the truth of that word : "Them that honor me I will honor." He was one who lived under an abid ing sense of the presence. He remem bered, "Thou, God seest me." He was a noble man, a good citizen, a good preacher—to know him was to honor him. llev. Clark was associated with him 22 years. Father Breaden Moderated the call for him, examined him, assist ed with communions. He would hold him in fond remembrance. His modes ty, humility, tenderness, were to be admired. His preaching was solid, substantial food; his prayers were characterized by great solemnity. He was an example in conscientious fideli ty to all his appointments. llev. Kerr knew him for 20 years.— There are three things that comfort UM to-day: 1. The life he lived. 2. The death he died. 3. His destiny. He was the last ministerial brother who talked with him and to him he gave a message for the Presbytery. Scarcely able to speak and urging himself to the effort, he took Mr. Kerr's hand and said : "Tell the brethren of the Pres bytery, 1 die having no confidence in flesh, placing my hope only in the atonement of Christ anil in that faith I expect to pass safely into eternity. Tell them I expect to meet them all in Heaven." llev. McKlree spoke of him as an Israelite indeed, in whom was no guile —of the purity of his life and his tri umphant death. In whom was illus l trated, ' Thou shalt come to thy grave in full age, like as a shock of c"*n cometh in his season." llev. Clyde of the M. church, had but brief acquaintance, but felt con strained to give testimony to the de ceased father's worth. llev. Brown was touched with his valedictory words to the presbytery, and saw in his experience the power of divine grace. llev. Ewlng said he would be missed not only in his family and in the congregation, but in our families. He was one who took an interest in the children anil they loved to receive his kindly greeting. Father Coulter of the Presbyterian church, said with much apparent feeling, "I have lost a friend. I am almost afraid to say a word The words of appreciation spoken are such as ought to be said. I learned to love him. People have heard me say during the last ten days, 'There was no man in the world that I loved like Brother Broaden.' I loved to talk with him, pray with and hear him preach." Rev. Black said he was the first minister he ever knew. To him he was the ideal of a christian gentleman ami a minister of (iod. Father Coulter then led in prayer, a psalm wus sung and after the con gregation took a last look at their la mented pastor, his btxly was laid in the corner of the church-yard hard by the church, to await the Redeemer's appearing. The services were long— two hours or more in length, yet the congregation showed no signs of wear iness, Many eyes were wet with tears as some touching reminiscences were spoken of. It was a solemn, sad day, yet a day of spiritual refreshment. We do not often look upon our departed father's like. He has now gone up higher and well will it be for the church if his mantel falls upon others, who will imitate him in his diligence, willingness to labor, his modesty, gen* tleness, guilelessneas and faith In (iod.

EDITORS CITIZEN— Not having seen anything in your paper from Worth township, I thought I would write a few lines to satisfy any auxietf that may exist in the minds of some per sons with regard to our welfare. We have been having quite a warfare, as is gcnerall}- known, and what seems most strange, out of all the assaults and batteries, trespass, and false im prisonments, there has not been one person deprived of life or limb, or in fact anyone hurt, unless it was one of the lowlanders who wanted the Pro fessor who lectured on Phrenology over among the rocks, to feel his dog's head. But the Professor's hands as well as his mind seems to have been worried considerably, and he adopted a large hickory cane he had on the oc casion. Whether he intended to feel the dog's or the lowlanders head is not known, but be that as it may the hick ory lit on the lowlanders snoot, who dropped the dog and immediately took to feeling his own head, no doubt thinking it was a good plan to be inde pendent. The lowlanders held council and declared war and the Professor had to stay in the School house all night. War has been going on in other parts also. We do not know whether the authorities intended to adopt the martial law or not, but they adopted some kind of law by which they dep utized a certain young man for the pur pose of taking another, which he tried to do without success. Then to have revenge be got three or four others, and proceeded to take his brother, which they done without losing a man. The people are very outspoken on political matters. They do not endorse the proceedings of the Pennsylvania Par don lJoard. They do not like, and have a very bad feeling toward the Came ron ring and they are going to give vent to their feelings at the coming pri mary election by defeating oue of Cameron's imps. W. L.
