D. Lytle, Secretary, and Joseph Criswell, Treasurer. We have received from the pub lishers, Lee 4 Shepard, No. 47 Franklin St., Boston, a copy of a new book, entitled "How is Your Man." The man referred to is the one who has been insured for the benefit of others, who are anxiously waiting to hear of his death. It is a complete expose of the speculative life insurance business, is well written, and winds up with a laughable story of an attempt to bury a live subject, Paddy Fotrgerty, whose life was heavily insured for the benefit of speculators, and who shammed death. When Washington and his little army entered upon the siege of Yorktown, after that splendid march from the north, bow little it could have entered into the head of any mem ber of that company to conceive that a century thereafter the most important question relative to Yorktown would be how to provide shelter and provender enough for the thousands who should gather to celebrate the great victory for human freedom there achieved by their fore father*.

He had been subject to fainting spells for some. —Some tramps have voracious appe* tites. One who recently did ex-Commissioner Robert Barron, of Brady township, the honor of breakfasting with nim, took three boiled eggs, half a dozen large cucumbers and the half of a large loaf of bread for part of his breakfast.

Clark, partook of another hearty break fast, and then to Mr. Robinson's, near by, where he got and ate another breakfast, inpluding three eggs that they boiled for him. At each place he ate a* much as any healthy man could eat. His capacity was remarkable. The Court of Appeals in New York has decided that a divorced person, who under the law of New York is incapacitated from contracting another marriage in that State, can nevertheless contract a valid marriage out side of the State jurisdiction which must be recognized in New York. The principle laid down is that a marriage valid where contracted is valid everywhere. This ruling is contrary to the frequent datermination of the lower Courts, ana is a letting down of the bars for di vorced parties who wish to re-marry —The receipts from internal revenue for October were $12,866,219 48, an increase of $1,787,769 62 over the corresponding month last yea»-. The receipts for the quarter were $37,461,252 47, against $32, 684, 497 13 for the corresponding period of last year, an increase of $4,776,855 34. The total receipts for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1881, were $134,- 982, C 59 15, wbicb was an increase of $11,359,- 416 93 over the receipts of the preceding twelve months. If the receipts of the past quarter, the first of the present fiscal year, may be taken as a fair index, the increase for the year over the receipts of last year will exceed $14,- 000,000, and the total of our internal revenue will not fall short of $150,000,000. —The Catholic clergy in the eastern part of the State have set an eiftmple wlj iph may well be followed by the clergy of all Christian denominations in every part of Penn sylvania denouncing all parties having lot or part in the nefarious business of graveyard in surance. It is the peculiar province of the church to deal with forms of iniouity upon which the law does not take hola. Besides, there ii something more practical in preaching against active and seductive sins than in launch ing invective against abstract iniquity. By all means let the church crusade go on until at least the skirts of church members are clear and clean. The business of speculative life in surance cannot be carried on successfully with out violating the ten commandments. —The York State Convention met in New York City and nominated men for such of the offices of that State as have to be filled this fall. The Republican delegate* so far out numbered the stalwarts that nothing occurred to disturb the harmony of the Convention until the question of the re-organization of the party in New York and Kings counties came up. This caused much excitement and some bitter speeches were made. Senator Warner Miller was elected temporary chairman, and Ohauncey M. Depew permanent chairman. The platform which was adopted deplores the death of Presi dent Garfield, declares great confidence in Pres ident Arthur, and pledges him firm support. Governor Cornell was praised for his wisdom, prudence and economy.

Tens of thou sands of visitors from all parts of the State and the south filled the streets of the famous Geor gia city, manifesting the greatest interest and showing in every way possible their belief in the ideas underlying the movement. The ex hibition is one of the very mauy hopeful signs of the growing industrial strength aud import ance of the south that have been witnessed in recent years. The age of imaginary phiyalry has pawed away in that section, and it is begin ning to be understood that when a man becomes a worker he doea not cease to be a gentleman. The contrary opinion unfortunately prevailed down that way some rears ago, and it finally brought a deluge of almost the greatest calami ties that ever fell upou a people. —A terrible accident, resulting in the death of two boys named Jatnes I>eonard and Wilbur Turk, happened near Central Point, U*t Thursday on the Butler A 'Parker narrow guage railroad, between Petrolia and Kama City. From the Record, of Petrolia, we take the following particulars of the accident: "On the lflld of September last, Mason L. Leonard purchased the well now owned by J. B. Hill, located on what was formerly known as the Widow Steel lot, and moved his family into the old Sheakley house on the Brady road, near (Antral Point. Thursday forenoon, while Mr. his son Joryis, aged about ten, and Wilbur Turk, aged about nineteen, were draw ing rods, the swivel of the sucker rod wrench became in some w»v disarranged. The well was shut down and the wrench taken into the boiler and engine house for the purj>ose of re pairing it. At this time the guage indicated forty pounds of steam, and there were three gauges of water in the boiler. The three per sons named above were standing at a bench lo cated obliquely from the door of the boiler, re pairing the wrench. At or near half-past nine o'clock the boiler exploded, hurling the owner. Mason Leonard, through a side door near which he was standing, resulting in only a slight in jury to bis face. The two boys received the di rect force of the explosion and were literally overwhelmed in a mass of scalding water and steam. When found they were lying in or nfar a corner of the building almost under the band pulley of the engiqe. They vere both immediately conveyed to the residence of Mr. Leonard and medical aid at once summoned. The little boy seemed to comprehend his critic al condition ; he urged his father to hasten the doctor, for he said ne was going to die. The doctor, however, could do nodiing more for the little fellow thau to assuage his sufferings as much as |Kmsible. He died at 2 o'clock. Wil bur Turk lingered longer, but from the first it wan seen there was no help for him. Death ended bis sufferings at half-past three in the af ternoon. Both were scalded from head to foot, and it is said the flesh was literally cooked. Besides that they must have inhaled the hot steam. The boiler was au old one and bad be come so corroded the Iron was said to have been as thin as paptr. It '.rasa sad accident and lias thrown into mourning a circle of relatives and friends. "Wilbur Turk, one of the victims lived near Karns City, on the Smith farm, and was the n>ain support of his mother. Presenti ments are not generally believed in ; neverthe less they often reoeive a verification which is remarkable whether considered as a coincidence or a confirmation Mason is au adopt ed son of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. McKee, Sr., of near Fairview. On Wednesday, Mrs. McKee, weeping at the same time, expressed herself as having a strong presentiment that something terrible was about to happen. The next day her grandson, by adoption, was hurried into eternity." f&if* WnlUr Citizen: si®., ©ctccljjer 12, t88I» Police to Collectors of Couuty Taxes tor 1881.

MCCLYMONDS, Clerk. —THE STACK-O'HABA CASE.—The recent decision of the Supreme Court in this case was not a review of the original decision of Judge Gamble, late President Judge, of Ly coming countv. That was an equity proceed ing, iustituted'bv Father Stack for the purpose of beinz restored to his rights as a priest over his church in the city of Williamsport. The Supreme Court decided that case in October, 1879, and the case is reported in y Norris. That Court then held, as reported in the books, that the profession of a priest is his property, and a prohibition of the exercise of that profession by his Bishop, without accusation or hearing, was contrary to th£ law of the land, and also hold ing that Father Stack was unlawfully removed from his charge. This was a decision of three of the Judges of the higher Court, against two who dissented. The recent decision of the Court of Pittsburg was a review of the ruling of the Court of Com mon Pleas of Lycoming county in an action at law brought by Father Stack against Bishop O'Hara to recover damages for his unlawful re moval from his charge. The Judge of the Com mon Pleas in this trial charged the jury that if they found that the removal of Father Stack was not contrary to the law ot the church, he was not entitle to recover damages. The Su preme Court has revised, to a certain extent, its previous deliverance upon this controversy between Priest and Bisbop, and sustains the ruling of the Court below in their instruction to the jury, wbo found for the Bishop under the instructions. Judge Tfinkev, who delivered the recent opinion, refers to'the previous decision of that Court in the same controversy, ami now hnlds that the former opinion only related to the dis position of the costs. —The sanguinary massacre of which the cable brought fresh details from Tunis, Africa, last week, reads like an episode of the Indian mutiny. The butchers who entered the fatal house at Cawnpore, Irom which the shrieks of women presently rose ; the Sepoys who hunted the Europeans from station to sta tion, hanging magistrates in their own cutchc ries, cutting the throats of children before their mothers' eves, were animated by the spirit of fanaticism that led the Arabs to attack the sta tion at Wadzeergha and burn the statiou mas ter and his men alive. Scarcely a fortnight; ago the same tribes captured two French (Ira goons in the desert, kindled a fire and slowly borued the prisoners to death. It is a war of reprisals. General Logerot has ordered that all Arabs found with arms in their hands shall be shot. The Ar? 1 * !?ave determined that all Frenchmen taken by them shall lie burned alive. Their exasperation is intense. "I am convinced," telegraphs a correspondent of the London Times, "that unless the French occupv Tunis immediately an anti-Christian out-break may occur at any moment." Marabou have come from Algeria telling of the desecration of Sidi Sheikh's torab, of the holy sarcophagus carried off by the French. Songs have been chanted in Tunisian villages recounting the exploits of Abdel-el-Kader and calling for an other hero who shall free the country from the Frank. Emissaries in the guise of jugglersand serpent charmers have been carrying the signal of revolt. Yet wilh unimpaired confidence the i French push forward to the holy city of Kai rouan. Their generals say that when this town is in their bauds the war .will be ended. So said the British in DSo", when the holy city of Benares was recaptured. Aud at that time the mutiny had only just begun. The tragedy of Cawnpore was yet to come, the siege of Luck now, the defence of the little house at Arrah, the defections of rajahs, the death of Lawrence, and all the sickening scenes of bloody massacre and bloodier revenge which after twenty years of peaceful rule have neither been palliated nor forgotten.

KepreMentatlve Law, of IMiila. delplila, Drowned. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. f>.—Edward Law, Representative from the Eighth ward, of this city in the State Legisla ture, was rowing in a shell yesterday afternoon on the Schuylkill river near Oirard aud Bridgewster. The shell upset and he was drowned. His body was recovered. Kemble and Mat-key. Upon the 2d of last July Prince Ar- I cher and Lewis C. Cassidy, represent ing the executors of the estate of ; Robert W. Mackey, filed a bill in equi -Ity against Win. H. Kemble, which set ! forth that during Mackey's lifetime he j had been intimately associated with I Kemble in various ventures, in most : of which the great share of the money had been contributed by Mackey; that among these matters were loans made to one George K. Anderson, secured upon real estate in Crawford and Ven ango Counties for which Anderson confessed two judgements of SIIO,OOO each to Kemble, who declared that he held them in trust tor Mackey. An derson subsequently failed and was sold out by the Sheriff, and Kemble and Mackey realized only $15,000 out of the sums lent him. During these dealings with Anderson Kemble inj duced State Treasurer Mackey to de posit large amounts of money in the State Exchange Bank of Titusville, in which Kemble was interested and which suspended in 18T7, holding over SIOO,OOO in cash, partly 'trust funds,' deposited by Mackey, almost all of which was lost, and for which the bill alleges Kemble as & stockholder was personally liable. Still another ac count was involved in these transac tions. Mackey had become indebted on upon account with the People's Bank, of which Kemble was President, iu a sum amounting in December, 18T8, to $57,000, for which it i 6 claimed Kemble was jointly liable, and in part satisfaction of which Mackev paid the bank the $15,000 derived from the sale of the Anderson lands. On the 19th of December, 1878, when Mackey had lost SIOO,OOO in the Anderson matter and another SIOO,OOO by the failure of the Titusville Bank, Kemble wrote him a letter from the office of the People's Bank in which he styled him 'Dear Bob.' begging him not to give himself any uneasiness about the Anderson matter, offering to take one-half of the $57,000 due the bank, accepting in re turn one-half of the Anderson property, finally giving him the comforting as surance that 'justice shall be done though the heavens fall.' Three weeks after the receipt of this letter Mackey died, and when his executors called upon Kemble he at first, they claim, admitted the letter anc} otter, apcf agreed to carry it out, but, upon being pressed, not only refused to do so, but compelled the estate to pay the whole $57,000. The executors therefore ipr stituted an equity suit that the Court might direct Kemble to render an ac count of his dealings with Mackey and pay over whatever balance might be found due. To this bill of complaint M r - JCem. ble has Just filed an answer through his counsel, David W. Sellers, in which he denies in toto the allegations of the bill and answers the points which seem to implicate him as follows: As to the confessions of judgment to hini by Anderson, he says that Mackey inform ed him that, being the Treasurer of the State, he was unwilling to have his n ar Pe used obliged in the judg ments, and requested Kemble to allow the use of his name, and upon the lal ter's assenting, a declaration of trust was declared, by which Kemble be came what is known in law as 'a dry trustee.' Jq regard to the bank affair, Kemble explains that both he and Mackey were stockholders in the bank, but that he got out before its failure, and, therefore, cannot be liable to Mackey for the funds the latter had deposited. In explanation of the letter of December 9, 1878, Kemble declares that their mutual friend, Matthew S. Quav, informed him that Mackey was worried about the $57,000 ho owed ths bauk, and that with the view of reliev ing his mind he offered to take half the Anderson land for $28,500, bijt that neither Mackey nor his executors ever accepted the offer. Claiming that he is not liable, therefore, to render any account to the plaintiffs, he prays that the bill may be dismissed.— l'hila, PregH, Sept 30. Ciiarfleld'M KeiuuliiM, CLEVELAND, October 6. —At a late hour last night Mr. Garfield's remains were transferred very quietly from the casket in which they came from ftl beron to the air-tight case made of sheet broniie. Mayor Derrick received a letter dated September 28th, stating that on the representation of the Union League Club and prominent citi zens the body was not placed in a proper receptacle, and the Metallic Burial Case Company, of New York, offered a casket which vyas n»ad e a pe* cialjy for the purpose. Mrs. Garlield and Dr. J. 11. Robinson were summon ed by telegraph, and came here yester day to see the casket, which was sent on by a special car.

The solid gold plote to be fixed on the top of the casket will be inscribed as Mrs. Garfield The remains were in an unexpectedly good state of preser vation, and now that a proper casket has been provided it is probable that the plans of the Monument Committee will be changed, and instead of the body being put iri the ground a crypt will be erected and the casket exposed to view. I-IIIKIIMMI Ull<l (lie York! own A flair. Nor did the surrender of Cornwallia at York town end the war. England was weary of the struggle, though many, like the gentle poet Cowpcr, might have sympathized witti the con scientious scruples of the King in re fusing to cede any of the dominions he had sworn in his coronation oath to preserve intact. Hut others were of a different opinion. Fox rejoiced at tho news, knowing that it presaged the close of the unhappy war, and his opinion was so far shared by Parlia ment that on the 19th of April, 1783 —exactly eight years after it broke out —Washington was able toaunounceto his army that all was over We can not believe that anyone now-adays holds any other opinion than that of Fox. Dad Cornwajlis been able to carry out his plans, the struggle might have been protracted a little longer.
