At the head of this column trill be foun< the ticket chosen by the Republicans o Butler couaty at their primary alectioi last Saturday, and ratified by the con ▼ention of Monday. Mr. Stone, of course has yet to run the gauntlet of the Stat< Convention at Harrisburg on the 2»th o; next month, and Mr. Black that of the quadruple "fifteen puzzle," the time and place for the meeting of which has not yet been decided upon. This year, however, it will not be altogether a straight fifteen business, as in Lawrence county two ol Col. Jackson's delegates were defeated by independent candidates, supposed to be in Mr. Townsend's interest, and Jackson is trying to retaliate by securing some dele gates in Beaver Co. In Mercer county Mr. McDowell carried eleven of the districts and Mr. Brown four, and the latter gentle man will go to the convention with his delegates. Tbe primary of Beaver county occurs to-day (Thursday)_. and then the nominations will be complete. This is the second time Mr. Black has been endorsed by this county. He will again go to the convention with a solid delegation, and we hope he will not IK; disappointed this time in securing the nomination. For Assembly, J«>.-i«h A!. Thompson, oi Brady Twp., and Andrew G. William.-, Esq., of Butler, are our nominees. Mr. Thompson is a fanner by occupation, and he is probably as well acquainted with th»i interests of tbe farmer as is any man in the connty. He has had one term in the House and is therefore prepared to work intelligently. Mr. Williams is an attorney of Butler with a good practico and reputation. He was a soldier and is a member of the Grand Army and Veteran Legion. For Sheriff our nominee is William M Brown, of Foiward Twp. He is in the prime of lifti, a substantial farmer, is a clear-beaded m:in of business, has a rep utation for honasly and integrity second to none in his neighborhood and will make an excellent .Sheriff of butler county. For i'rothonotary our nominee is Capt. John 0. Bippus, of Oakland The Capt. is a man well up iu yearn; he earned his title in the army, and a rebel ballet made a long and deep wound through the top of hi* scalp, he is jet act've aud hearty, if a man of good mind and address, and in in every way competent to fill the responsible office tor which he has been nominated. For Register aud Recorder our nominee is David E. Dale, of Butler. He is a son of Rev. A. Dale, dcc'd, formerly of Fairview, and as he is yet a young man he may be said to represent the young Republicans on the ticket. He is well acquainted with the duties of the office, having been a clerk in it for five years. He is a very courteous gentleman and will make an obliging and faithful officer. For Treasurer our nominee is James S. Wilson, of Centrevillo, a merchant, clerk and old soldier, who will make as good a treasurer as Butler has ever had. For Clerk of Courts onr nominee is Jos. Criswell, of Butler Twp. He is a farmer, old soldier, and halo fellow well met with everybody. Ho is not a big man physical ly but what he lacks in quantity he makes up in quality. For County Commissioners onr nominees are Samuel T. Marshall, of Butler, aud J. C. Kiskaddon, of Allegheny Twp. k'r. Marshall has been engaged in the merran tile business the greater part of his life. He was clerk for the Co. Commissioners for several yeari*, and there is probably no man in the county better acquainted with its business than he. Mr. Kiskaddon is a carpenter and rig builder, and a clear-beaded man. He went into the army when a boy, and stayed there till a rebel bullet pierced bis right lung and lodged in bis back, aud as it is there yet, it will help birn to hold down his seat in the Commissioner's office. Our nominees for County Auditors are A. M. Douthett, of Penn Twp., and Jacob Albert, of Franklin Twp. Alt Douthett is a son of Itavid Douthett, Sr., dee'd, late of Brownsdalc, a uaine that is mentioned young man, a school teacher by profession, a good penman and accountant ai,J will make a good auditor. Mr. Albert is a highly respected farmer, a man well up in years, an excellent yen man and accountant and has been doing the auditing of the accounts of his town ship for many years. For Coroner our man is John Kennedy, of Butler, genera'ly known a* "Devil" John Kenned v, a men well up in years, an old soldier, and competent to fill the office. We have a good ticket, a worthy ticket, and one that should be elected from top to bottom, and now let our motto be, "The ticket, the whole ticket ai;d nothing but the ticket." Of course there were souii bitter dis appointments last Monday, aud some fault finding was indulged iu by one or two of those who wero so unfortunate a.i to miss tne goal of their ambition, but these should pause to consider that with from two to sixteen candidates for each county office, except Coroner, defeat was inevitable for the majority of them, and a« there was 110 radically unlair play indulged in that we have beard of, these should prove by bury ing the dead and closing up the ranks, that they are worthy of the positions to which they aspired, and will yet merit them at the hands of their fellow partisans. Thf Louisiana State Lottery offers the State half a million dollars a year for an extension of its charter for twenty-five years, bnt Governor Nicholls is bitterly opposed to it. He says tho previous char tering of this institution was "an outrage on other States and a disgrace to Louis tans." On this question the Governor's bead is decidedly level.

Beaver county holds her pri maries to day (Thursday) and the Con gressional Convention will probably meet in the course of two or three weeks, though neither the time nor place have yet been fiseJ. Mr. Black is making an effort to have the Convention meet iu Butler,as our town is just as coi venient for three of the four counties as is .New Castle, and has better hotel accommodations than any other town in the district. Tjik Farmer's Alliance is making trouble for the Bourbons in Georgia as well as other Southeastern States. It lias an uonnced its determination to put u com plete State ticket in the field in Georgia, and also to contest seven out of ten of the Congressional districts of that State. The Democratic Congressmen who were elected substantially without opposition from Georgia districts in which the Republican majority has been wiped out by fofce ijiul fraud, are greatly alarmed over the appear, auce of this new opponent, which draws its strength mi largely from the Democratic ranks. The Election in Butler. The polls were opened promptly at one o'clock, Saturday, and during the six hours that followed there was considerable animation in the vicinity of each When" the windows were closed at 7 o'clock, it was found that 209 votes had been polled in the First ward, 150 in the Second, 120 in the Third, 15.1 in the Fourth and 172 in [ the fifth, making 804 in all. out of an es timated Republican vote of 900. During the day almost all the work done was put on the State ticket and return judges, and the result was a complete vic tory for anti-Delamater people. Stone's vote in the town was 283, Dela mater's 73, Hastings' 20, Montooih's 11, and Osborne's 1, which shows that less than half of our people voted for Governor. Fleeger had 513 votes for Delegate to Slate Convention, McMarlin 304, Ilitter 197, Dindinger 150 and Hell 152, which shows that nearly all of Hitter's vote came off McMarlin. Each of the five wards also elected anti- I)elainater county committeemen, or re turn judges. In the First ward Alexander had 38 over Robinson, in the Second ward Nicbolls had 3 over McCandless, in tho Third Ensmir.gcr hail no opposition, in the Fourth Iluseltou had 34 over Lowry, and in the Fifth Raker had 14 over Gill.

VITA. Slander. Definition of slander, as it is found in Binns J usiice. Slander is the defaming of a man in his reputation, profession or livelihood, as if a man maliciously and falsely utter any slander or false tale of another, which may either endanger him in law by impeaching him of some heinous crime, as to say that a fp/tn bath poisoned another, or is per jured; or which piyy exclude him from society, us to charge him with an infectious disease; or which may impair or hurt his trade or livelihood, as to call a tradesman a bankrupt. Any words maliciously titter ed against another, which may tend to exclude him from society, or injure'him in any manner, let the words be true or false, is slander. The person that repeats slanderous words is as guilty of slander as till) mlytiiami. —#. T. TIIK S- nate and House seem to Lave arrived at a deadlock on pension matters, by the report in favor of the nonconeur rence of the Senate in the limine amend ment* which make the last pension measure a service pension bill. The is»ue between the two bodies is absolute and irreconcilable. The Senate is in fayor of u pension bill for veterans who are in need of aid, and passes a bill to that effect. The House says the only bill must be one awarding a pennon to ull soldiers as they reach a certain 4ge, ai;d converts the Senate dependent pension into a semc/B pension; and the Senate retorts that it will not stand it. IT is seldom that the Republicans of Hut lor nominate a man for office, on his first attempt, This was Brown'* third run, Hippus' second, Dale's second, Wil son's third, and Marshall's second. THERE is a man in this town who has nineteen rocking chairs in his home. It is said that the rocking chair is truly an American institution, and thai, it# incessant use is a constant curiosity to tin. average Knglishman who visits this country. All the same it good rocking chair i.» comfort. THE McKeesport postollice muddle verifies the truth of t'assio's maudlin declaration that "There be Soles that must be saved, and th< re lie Soles that must— not be saved." Congressman Hay recom mended Elmer Soles for the appointment of postmaster. Edwin Soles was also an applicant, liy miutake the papers were made out in Edwin's name, and lie secure* the plum, although it was not intended that he should havo it. Results ot Saturday's Elect'ons on Governor. On Saturday last the Republicans of Bedford, Butler, Cumberland, Elk, Franklin, Greene, and Indiana Counties held their primaries. lu Bedford and llutler Counties the anti- Delamater men centered on Stone, and carried the counties, electing f"ur dele pates for him. In Cumberland county the fight was between Hastings and Dela mater, and Hastings won. Elk county elected but one delegate and he is supposed to be for Delamater. In Franklin county two Stone delegates were elected. Greene county elected but one delegate, who will vote for Montooth 011 fir.-.t ballot. In Indiana county two Delamater dele gates were elected. There will be 204 delegates in the con vention that meets in Harris burg on Wednesday, the 25th of June, and it wiil take 103 to nominate. Of the delegates thus far elected Dela mater is supposed to have 59. Hastings 25, Stone 14, Osborne 6, Montooth 4, Davies 3, and McCormick 3. Ninety delegates are yet to be elected, and of these Philadelphia will elect 211, June sth, and it is supposed that Hastings will secure nearly all of them; Allegheny Co. will elect 16 next Saturday and Montooth will probably secure them all; and as the tide in the country, as shown l>y last Saturday's elec tions, it turning against Delamater, nobody supposes that he will get. the majority of of the remaining 45, and he would have to get all but one of the in to be nominated on lirst ballot, and if ho is not nominated on first ballot, it is not probable that he will be nominated at all. The Franklin Co. Convention met at Chauibersburg Tuesday, and the two anlt iWummiT tttrlegatcs *Vit rti->-tcd by the Convention, the vote standing about 100 to 60. They wiil vote at Harrislmrg for ant-body but Delamater. The resolutions endorse Harrison, Beaver. Kecd and MC- Kinley, but say nothing of Quay or An drews. THE Supreme Court of the United States has decided that it is for the Legislature of State to say what is and what is not cruel and unusual punishment, which means that Kemmler must die by electricity. It is rather a startling fact that the most densely populated square mile in the world is not in China, or Belgium, but in the city of New York, and that it is in habited by 270,000 people, the larger part of whom are Italians, who speak their native language only and retain their native customs. THE Pennsylvania Company has con tributed a large sum, said to be $275,000, to the World's Fair Committee, of Chicago. The vouchers for the amount were made out at the general offices of the company iu Pittsburg and the World's Fair Coin jljittee notified that the money could be drawn upon at any time. TII*T famous "Knglish Syndicate" whi. li has already purchased (on paper) at a fabulous expense all or nearly all our leading American industries is once more on deck. This time it is to purchase Pitts burg glass works and get control of the trade.
