Hon. John I. Mitchell.
lion. John I. Mitchell, who was yester
day elected U. S. Senator from this State
for six years from the 4th of March, to
succeed Senator Wallace, is a native of
Tioga County. lie was born in 1838, and
is consequently 43 years old. lie was
educated in the common school and at
the Lewisburg University, but did not
graduate. Before the war he taught
school; served in the army as a lieuten
ant and captain. In 1804 he was admit
ted to the bar of Tioga County and four
years later was chosen District Attorney
for three years; for a year or two he edit
ed the Wdlsborough Agitator ; was a mem
ber of the Legislature from 1872 to 1876,
where he won honorable distinction by
his ability, unquestioned honesty and un
swerving fidelity to the principles of the
Republican party. He was once a con
spicuous candidate for tho Speakership.
He was also chairman of Judiciary Gen
eral, and Ways and Means Committees,
positions which made him the leader of
his party in the House.
In 1876 he was unanimously nominated
for Congress and elected. Against his
wishes he was rc-nomiuated for a second
term and re-elected.
During his long experience in public
life, he has kept himself above reproach,
and has served his constituents at the
expense of his own pecuniary advance
ment, as he is a poor man. To his integ
rity, uprightness and wisdom as a legis
lator, he is indebted for his present ad
vancement, as it is no disparagement
of his fitness to say that there are other
men who have been suggested for the
place quite as talented as himself: but he
will out rank the average Senator in abil
ity as a debater and legislator. His unan
imous nomination and election is credita
ble to himself and highly honorable to
the Republican members of the Legisla
ture. It will restore harmony to the par
ty whose unity had been threatened by
the long struggle, as neither faction can
claim nim. He is an independent, up
right man, and in his official capacity will
know no parties inside the political or
ganization which has chosen him.
This is the time for great enterprises
and the fever of speculation is thoroughly
aroused. In the railroad line is the
scheme te extend our railwap system in
to Mexico—General Grant, Jay Gould
and others being in the scheme. The
reclamation of the Everglades of Florida
is another affair of some magnitude, en
gineered by Philadelphia gentlemen of
large means. These are samples of the
spirit that is abroad. In the line of min
ing enterprises the number, good and bad
is almost beyond mention. Whether all
this indicates rising prosperity, or por
tends an ultimate panic, is a question to
be carefully studied.
Kearney recently made a speech on the
Sand Lots in San Francisco, in which he
said: -'lf one thousand Irish neu will
subscribe one dollar apiece to pay my ex
penses to Ireland and back, if necessary
I will go there, but will reserve the right
to use my own judgment after I get there
as to what I shall do." The money is
not likely to be raised.
A dispatch from Paris on Saturday to
the London Times states that the village
of Brevieres, in the Department of Savoy
Sardinia, has been completely destroyed
by two avalanches. Fifteen persons were
killed. The damage is estimated at 250,-
000 francs.

FEW FACTS
in regard to tike
VV hite
Sewing
Machine.
It is fin acknowledged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands pre
eminent among first-class machines, for
its simplicity and light-running qualities.
It is a mechanical fact that the White
Sewing Machine is made from the best
material and of excellent workmanship,
and all its wearing parts aro adjustable,
so that lost motion can be "taken up*' in
an instant.
It is an undisputed fact that the dura
bility of the White Sewing Machine is
sustained by a written warranty for five
years.
It is a progressive fact that tho White
embodies the most practical and useful
improvements of other sewing machines,
together with advantages peculiarly its
own.
It is a money-making fact that tho
Wnitci3 the easiest-selling selling ma
chine in the market, and therefore all
wide-awake dealers make it their specialty.
It is a gratifying fact that the White
gives universal satisfaction, and that it is
steadily and rapidly increasing In public
favor.
CAUTION.
Do rot b# imposed upon by agents and parties
who are interested in the purchase aud sals sf other
machines. It has become a common trick for un
scrupulous competitors to get a White rnachin# and
put it in bad order so that they might prejudics pur
chasers againßt it and in favor of their own machines.
To guard against such contemptible trickery, ws
advise all intending purchasers to correspond with
us direct, and ws will take pleasure in giving them
the address of a regular authorized dealer for the
"White" in their county, or ws will offer ts sell
them a machine direct at special prices, and guaran
tee satisfaction in every respect.
