Our Ticket.
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.

The tabulating of the votes proceeded
until Adams South was reached, when a
mistake wan discovered in the Return
sheet, the name of S. W. McGarvey ap
pearing on the sheet when that of S. W.
McCollough was intended, and as there
was no tally sheet in the envelope a dis
pute arose as to what should be done with

could be secured carried. The tally ,-hect
was telegraphed for and arrived before the

All ol' these gentlemen are personal
friends of Mr. Black and will heartily sup
port him. 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.

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

THERE is a man in this town who has

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*

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 Supreme Court of the United States

It is rather a startling fact that the most

THE Pennsylvania Company has con

trade. This syndicate may or may not be
a myth, but the tales of the fabulous sums
spent by it in getting control of American
industries puts one in mind of the Genii
