Last week we called attention to the size and strength of the Democratic bolt from Cleveland but we did not, as a cotemporary confidently asserts, exhaust all our evidence in that one attempt to show a Democratic revolt. We have yet plenty of evidence to back our statements and every day brings fresh proof that the bolters are not few or without influence. The defection of John Kelly and Tammany Hall in New York, and the antagonistic attitude of the workingmen all over the country are facts that are only too painfully apparent to Democratic eyes. The pugilistic position of Butler and his strong Democratie following in Massachusetts, is another fact that cannot be satisfactorily explained by Democratic mouths, while the bolt of ex-Senator Davi', in West Virginia, and the more or less important bolts in Texas, Louisiana and North Carolina cannot be reassuring to Democratic hopes. The New York Tablet, a leading organ of the Catholic Church, and hitherto an advocate of Democratic principles, has openly declared for Blaine, and its editor asserts that the majority of the Irish people he has met are outspoken for the Plumed Knight.
Secretary Hobbs, of the Washington Assembly, Knights of Labor, says the feeling among. workingmen is "dead against Cleveland," and the organization to which he is attached will not support the Democratic nominee. The New York Freeman's Journal, another prominent Catholic and Democratic organ, is not enthusiastically for Cleveland. The passable Mayor of Buffalo, it says, made a failure as Governor and "he has no show" of carrying the State of New York "against James G. James Redpath, the well-known labor advocate, voted for Cleveland two years ago but he now opposes him and prefers Blaine to Cleveland "a thousand times." President M.
B. Gallacher, of the Land League, a powerful Irish organization, makes the emphatic assertion that he will cut off his right hand before he votes for Cleveland. As. semblyman Harrigan, an influential Democratic leader of Trenton, N. will not support Cleveland "under any circ*mstances." John F.
Henry, a wholesale. druggist of New York and President of the National Anti- Monopoly League, says that the laboring men and anti-monopolists will positively refuse to vote for the Democratic nominee. The Seamen's Union and the Painters' Assembly, two labor unions of Chicago, have declared against Cleveland, and the Tanners and Curriers' Union, of the same city, an organization which did not contain two dozen Republican votes, have concluded to cast their ballots and use their influence for James G. Blaine. Forney's Progress, a Philadelphia journal that is circulated everywhere in the States, has left its hitherto independent position and come boidly forward in advocacy of the Plumed Knight.
Edward McCarthy, a Democratic ex-official of New Haven, has publiely declared his intention of supporting Blaine, and other New Hampshire Democrats have followed his example, as was evinced by the recent monster 10389 meeting of IrishAmerican Democrats in favor of Blaine and Logan at Nashua. A large number of Troy Democrats have also espoused the cause of Blaine and Logan, among them being such men as Samuel Morris, President of Common Councils, and W. C. Cozier, editor of the Evening Standard, a leading newspaper heretofore independent in pollties but now an ardent adherent of the Maine statesman. Prof.
Win. H. Harrison, who has been not only a life Democrat, out is wellknown as one of the ablest in Delaware county, this State, has written to Chairman Cooper, as follows: After nearly a quarter of a contury's service in the Democratic party, I now find them without leaders, policy or principles, or perhaps should say, with many leaders, each the head of faction, whose only porpose is to crowd some one ont of office, and secure it for himself. The professions of the party have been forgotten when placed in power, their promises anfulniled. Believing, as do, that the party has become unworthy and treacherous, that 118 candidates have become venal and unsate, deem it my duty tosapport all worthy men upon the Republican ticket, of which frat and toremost la Hon.
James G. Blaine for President of these United States. We allude in another portion of this article to a Democratic bolt in Louisiana. This break from the ranks is headed by George L. Walton, a prominent Democrat of Concordia parish, for long years a member of the State Legislature, President of the State Senate, and acting Lieutenant Governor at the death of L.
A. Whiltz. In an open letter to the Concordia Eagle, Governor Walton declares that he will support Mr. Blaine for the Presidency, and quotes at length the reasons which compel not only him, but "thousands of white like himself, to do so in his Congressional district. The Eagle, to which Governor Walton's letter was addressed, conmenta upon the communication and while regretting his defection, says that it cannot deny he has good reason for his notion.
It concedes that thonsands of white Democrats in North Louisiana, not only in Concordia, but in a number of other parishes in the same Congressional district, share the the opinions of Governor Walton, and Are prepared to support the Blaine-Logan ticket in North Louisiana. As the Eagle has always been a strong Democratic organ this admission is significant of the 1 popular drift. The New Orleans Gazette, the only German paper published in the State, and a journal of large circulation and much influence among the German population, is no small factor in politics, and though independent, has generally favored the Democracy. Recently, however, it has leaned toward the Republican Standard Bearers, and it delivered itself not long since of the following language in its editorial columns: A quite interesting change of base is now preparing in Louisiana. Men who have been most prominent among the leaders of the Democratic party, and held high positions of trust, declare their defection, and proclaim over their sign manual that they will work for the Republican nominees in this Presidential canvass, and will vote for Blaine and Logan on the day of election.
General Rosecrana, "Old Rosy" of honored fame, expressed his regret at Cleveland's nomination. "He represents the capitalists and not the laboring declares this eminent Democrat; "he was not the choice of the If all this is not a bolt, what is it? A WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING. If a wolf is ever to be feared, it is when it masquerades in the clothing of a sheep. Such a wolf, and so disguised, is the socalled Prohibition party which held its National Convention in Pittsburg recently. This movement is not a step toward the cause it pretends to advocate, but it is a covered move in the direction of Democratic success.
In its true inwardness, it does not aim at Prohibition, but is simply an attempt to draw Republican votes and thereby strengthen 1 Democratic hopes of a national victory. It needs only a hasty glance at the leaders in this alleged temperance movement to prove that we have not in pronouncing it a wolf in sheep's attire. Indeed, some of these Democratic masqueraders have made no secret of their object, but have openly boasted that they will draw enough Republican votes to ensure Democratic success. It is, therefore, to be hoped that Republicans will consider well before casting their lot with this latest Democratic annex. Democratic success means Free Whiskey as well as Free Trade.
The Republican party, on the other hand, has always been the friend of temperance, and whatever good has been done in that line is due to the labors of the Republican leaders. James G. Blaine is a teetotaler and has always been a friend of the Maine law. Indeed, the only argument this alleged Prohidition party attempts to bring against his election is the charge that he advocated putting the revenue derived from the liquor trade to a useful purpose in the way of free education. These precious reformers would condemn man for seeking to turn evil into good.
Is that like the act of true reformers? And are the men who lead this movement likely to be seeking other than Republican defeat when most of them are men whose names have always been identified with the Democracy? Is it not probablethat they are aiming at Democratic success when it is an open secret in Pittsburg that certain hard-shell Democrats have backed this movement from the start and paid the expenses of the Convention and of many delegates thereto Is it likely that such men as B. Gratz Brown, of Missouri, M. V. B. Bennett, of Kansas, and Col.
John B. Finch, of Nebraska, are in favor of temperance instead of Democratic success? The answer can only be in the negative, it is considered who these men are. Brown was the Democratic candidate for the VicePresidency in 1872. Bennett is a man who is notorious as a Copperhead of the Copperheads. Finch is a well-known and leading Democrat in his own State.
These men have always been so closely identified with Democratic methods and measures, that to seriously regard them in any way other than a Democratic light, is ridiculous as well as dangerous. As for John P. St. John, the socalled Prohibition candidate for President, he is a disappointed office-holder who leaves the Republican ranks because the party has no further favors to bestow upon him. He only discovered the party's utter worthlessness when it declined him an office.
So long as it had honors and gifts for John P. St. John, the Republican party was quite enough of a temperance organization for John P. St. John.
It is well that the fangs of the wolf have been seen peeping from the jaws of the sheepskin. We know of the danger and foreed is forearmed. Let all Republicans who favor temperance rebuke this handful of men who would injure the cause by using it as cloak for base designs. Let the rebuke be a severe one, and let its shape be that of the largest Republican majority ever polled. CLEVELAND AND THE SOLDIERS.
When the Democratic National Convention nominated its Presidential ticket, it did not wrong the great soldier element of this counit as when it selected candidate a Inan try so much in not placing, one of them upon who has ever opposed measures that were favorable to the honorable body of American soldiers. When Governor Cleveland was Mayor of Buffalo he vefoed an appropriation of $300, passed by the Common Council, for the proper observance of Decoration Day. Such is the patriotism of the man that the Democratic party offers us as a ruler! Such is the veneration in which this fellow holds the memory of those who fought and fell for their country's salvation. Could anything else be expected of a man who. when drafted, sent a substitute to fight his coun try's battles while he served as a subordinate district attorney in one of the lower courts.
Governor of New Grover Cleveland bill passed last session of Sortie the Legislature which made it a misdemeanor for any person to wear a G. A. R. badge who was not an honorably discharged soldier. The petition for the bill had been signed by all the G.
A. R. Posts of the State. Yet this accidental Governor refused to make this righteous measure a law, and thus proved his utter contempt for the noble cause that is upheld by the patriotic and honored order of the Grand Army. A measure passed the same Legislature allowing G.
A. R. Posts to use State muskets if they gave bonds for their return and safe keeping, and Cleveland vetoed the bill. The G. A.
as an organization, had asked for the privilege. It was not an unreasonable request, and it was one of the last bills a man with a war record like that of Cleveland's should have rejected. Governor Cleveland's fourth exploit in opposition to the Grand Army of the Republic was his veto of the bill passed by the Legislature allowing a gratuity of $1,200 to John Young. Young, who had lost an arm in the service, was made a hopeless cripple by an accident which happened to him while working in the Capitol building at Abany. All the Grand Army of the Republic Posts of Albany petitioned the Legislature for the relief it extended, but the patriotic mind of the weighty Governor decided that it was wrong to assist a disabled soldier.
It is for such strong reasons as these that the Washington National Tribune, the organ of the Grand Army, does not favor the election of Mr. Cleveland, and it is because of such a record that all true American soldiers will oppose his success. An enemy to those who fought to preserve our country has no right in a Presidential Chair, and the members of the G. A. whether Republican or Democratic, will refuse to support him.
They will prefer to vote for the party that has recognized their claims in the person of General John A. Logan. "We are aching for another letter from Mr. Blaine. His first WAS the best Democratic political document thus far lasued," says the Spirit.
Why does not our cotemporary publish the letter, then, instead of telling its renders that "those who have not yet perused it need not hasten to perform that The Spirit does not agree with the Spirit more than two successive LEAVE THE GIRLS ALONE. A cotemporary expresses great anxiety regarding "many of the young girls of Chambersburg who are just blooming into womanhood." It is alarmed lest "ruin" may be brought upon them, and "happy homes made sad by their practice of promenading the streets every pleasant evening. Our cotemporary is needlessly alarmed. There is no danger where no harm is meant. The custom of Chambersburg's gentler sex is the custom of the ladies in every town situate in Southern Pennsylvania.
Yet.no part of our broad country has less "ruin" brought upon its daughters, or fewer happy homes made no portion of our land is more noted for the modesty and purity of its maidens than is this. Unto the pure all things are pure and a chaste mind can see no impropriety in our girls appearing on the streets. We know of not one case where a lady has been insulted in the thoroughfares of our town, and to forbid them the use of the streets is to place a ban over that which they do not get enough of- and exercise. Our girls spend too much of their time indoors, as matters now stand, and it is only in the cool of the evening that an opportunity is afforded them for promenading. Let them indulge in this to their heart's content, and with health of body, there will be health of mind.
The girl who flirts would flirt under any conditions. If she could not promenade, she would flirt from the door-step or smile upon passersby from the window. Her sing should not be visited upon the heads of her more modest sisters, and the girls of Chambersburg, A8 a rule, are not flirts. Ask any passing drummer and he will inform you that in no town is flirtation so difficult as in Chambersburg. The girl who is restrained is more apt to go wrong than the girl whose actions are left to her moral sense and to her own conscientious judgment.
As to the young men who would offer insult to passing ladies, they are few and can scarcely be called men. Punish them if they can be found, and whenever they are found, but as to girls- leave them alone. In its issue of July 26th Harper's Weekly says it "advocated the election of Mr. Can it be that moral Curtis is guilty of premeditated falsehood Is it possible that the truly good George William has told a naughty, naughty story? Harper's Weekly is a paper that outdid all others in its fierce of opposition to Abraham Lincoln's election. It presented him in its pages as a barroom loafer and drunkard.
It tattooed him with more malice and vindictiveness than it has recently displayed toward Mr. Blaine, and its record on this point is too well known for it to boast now of having "advocated the election of Mr. Lincoln." That Prohibition party cannot be other than a wolf in sheep's clothing. If it was, would it bow down before such men as Brown, the Democratic nominee for in 1872, and Bennett, the Copperhead? really the President friend of temperance, would its convention have denied a hearing to such a veteran worker in the cause as Hon. Hiram Price, of Iowa, a man who has done more for temperance, to which he has devoted his whole life-time, than all the St.
Johns, Daniels, Browns and Bennetts combined? Mr. Blaine is the Except Jay Gould arch monopolist, for and Cyrus W. Field all he monopolizes the the conspicuous finansupport of all the mo- clera in New York have expressed their Yet we are told adherence to the DemCleveland is "the ocratic nominations.nopolista' candidate." Harrisburg Pat niot, 10 so why don't the (Dem.) monopolista support him Valley Spirit. Truly, Democratic opiniona differ. The assertion of Puck is flatly contradicted by the statement of the Patriot, and the latter serves as an answer to the query of the Spirit.
Immediately after Cleveland's nomination, Harper's Weekly placed his name, minus that of his associate on the ticket, at the head of its announcement columns. Recently it has been taken down and this leads to the belief that the Democratic National Committee to pay the Harpers for the valuable advertising space taken up by the weighty Governor's name. Not long since we made mention of the fact that the country was threatened with two evils Asiatic cholera and Democratic rule. The former has since increased its destructive spread but, we are pleased to chronicle, the latter is now to be feared no longer. Its hopes are as dead as the victims of the dread Asiatic plague.
Cleveland is the Monopolists' candidate. We have the positive authority of the Harrisburg Patriot on this important point. Except Jay Gould and Cyrus W. Field, it declares, all the "conspicuous financiers" in New York have declared their adherence to the Democratic nominations. An exchange gravely observes that a professional base-ball player was recently "knocked senseless" by a blow from the bat.
Our cotemporary probably meant to say that he was knocked motionless. The word senseless is not applicable in this case, ax professional baseball players are naturally exempt from mental shock. Cleveland is a reformer, shout the Democrats and socalled Independents. Are Mr. Cleveland's friends, Dan.
Manning, of Tweed ring memory, Thompson the leader of a circle scarcely less corrupt than that of Tweed, and Davidson, the "machine" Sheriff of a disgracefully governed city, also Reformers? We pause for a reply. The Democracy is evidently a party of retrogra tion rather than progress. Four years ago it nominated a good man, weighing 250 pounds. This year it has nominated a man weighing 225 pounds. It thus lost an adjective and 25 pounds in a very short time.
A New Hampshire Democrat committed suicide last week by blowing out his brains. As he could not reconcile the latter natural gift with his political views, he probably, like a true Democrat, preferred to retain his opinions even at the expense of his brains. When Grover Cleveland was Sheriff he hanged two men. We wonder whether he is not sorry for it now. They were both Democrats and he has consequently lost two votes.
Even two votes are of consequence to the Democrats this year. Our esteemed neighbor, the Valley Spirit, is contemplating a new departure. It tells its readers that its columns will contain "many truths" during the next three months. It does not commence this new feature, however, in the current issue. GENERAL WINFIELD S.
HANco*ck, exDemocratic candidate for the Presidency.A (Solus) I am a good man, even if Cleveland does weigh twenty-five pounds less, and don't you forget it Like Hanco*ck, Cleveland is simply a good man sot weight. OPINION, July 12. He la simply a respectable party who weighs the historie two hundredand nifty pounds -OPINION, July 19. What? Good man! Respectable party Hold on there we take it all back! Revenue Reform is what the Democrats call Protection and "yonthful indiscretions" is the term they will probably apply to their Presidential Byronic characteristics. A Democratic exchange calls Cleveland the Man of the Future and Hendricks the Man of the Past.
In this way does the Democracy attempt to straddle the Present. An interesting picture would be a doublepanel, with Blaine surrounded by his family on the one side, and Cleveland surrounded by his family on the other. The Carliale Volunteer anya Logan "is as brave man as never 'amelled We refer our cotemporary to any history of the Unitel States. The Boston Globe recently contained an "'Oed to an Editor." A great many papers could publimb, if they so desired, what is owed to the ed. Itor.
LITTLE Sox in search of knowledge, to wellinformed parent: Pa, what is concentrated lye? WELL-INFORMED -PARENT. Concentrated lie, my boy, concentrated lie? Well, a concentrated lie is a Democratic editorial. The Democratic Presidential ticket is laboring under difficulties because the head has not enough of a political record while the tail has too much. Cleveland is fond of pie. As soon as this evidence of "intense Americanism" is learned in England, his organs there will probably bolt.
Stephen Grover Cleveland and Henry Ward Beecher seem to be two of a kind. No wonder that Beecher has declared for Cleveland. This is to be a campaign of character, cry the Democratic managers, and Grover Cleveland faintly murmurs, Dont President Arthur was a great social success. Governor Cleveland appears to have. been a great social failure.
Will the Spirit please explain why William Purcell left the Democratic electoral ticket of New York? Beware There is a Democratic wolf lurking beneath 1 a Temperance sheep-skin. Beware! Governor Cleveland seems to have been a sort of American Don Juan. Blaine continues to magnetize and Cleveland to antagonize. Lieutenant Greely is now "a bigger man than old Grant." Alas! poor Cleveland! We know him well -too well! Political Notes. General Grant at his Long Branch cottage said last Thursday "I see newspaper insinuations that I am opposed to Mr.
Blaine's election or am not favorably disposed to him. They are not true. He ought to be elected. He would be President of the United States in fact as well as in name. He has twenty-five years of experience in public life, and knows every feature of the public business.
To reject such a man in all the plenitude of his knowledge and ability and will for a man of Governor Cleveland's limited experience, would be beneath the good sense of our people." The General added that he had little doubt of the result." Secretary Vreoman grows daily more enthusiastic over the outlook in New York. He now says that Blaine and Logan will have 75,000 in that State. At the close of a Republican meeting in Rochester, N. the other night, Edmund Redmond, a life-long Democrat and one of the most eminent speakers and writers that party ever had, arose in the hall and publicly announced his intention of supporting Blaine and Logan, and said that he had hosts of friends who would do likewise. The Democratic party in West Virginia is split in twain, and the prospects of Republican success are said to be good.
The National Prohibition party has nominated ex-Governor John, of Kansas, and Mr. Daniel, of Maryland, as its presidential ticket. The Southron, an influential Democratic paper of Gainesville, comes out for Blaine and Logan. For thirty years the editor has been an unswerving Democrat, but he cannot support the Democratic free trade platform--a platform that would reduce the wages of American labor to the British standard, drive the products of our factories from the market, and force this proud nation to the condition of Ireland. "He says: "Tariff for revenue only" crushed a good man weighing 250 pounds, and this year a "tariff for public purposes exclusively" will crush a 250 pounder not quite so good.
To our wormwood, mossback cotemporaries, our deferential salutations. To all the world, our enemies, charity. To friends, gratitnde. To Blaine and Logan, success. The tariff question was the main topic of the speeches with which Senator Mahone, John S.
Wise and two other orators opened the Republican campaign in Virginia last week. They thought protection the thing for the Old Dominion. Evidently Blaine's letter has been carefully read down there. Mr. Hendricks recently made a fuss over the defalcations of a Democrat in the Navy Department under a Republican Administration.
The Chicago Ocean now gives him a list of Democratic defalcations in that department between 1854 and 1860, when his own party was in power. They amount to 8478,129.29 in six years. During the twenty-three years of Re000. publican administration, they amount to Here is the doubtful compliment that the New York Sun pays the Democratic candidate for President; -Personnally Butler is not so handsome as Cleveland. He is older, shorter and rather more obese; but, on the other hand, his manners are more distinguished and elegant, and the little bouquet he wears in his buttonhole becomes him well.
Mr. Cleveland is the candidate of the great Democracy, the oldest party that exists in this country, and Butler only the nomination of the Greenbackers and Anti-monopolists to go upon. Yet, if it were a question of personal popularity, of the attachment, ardent and devoted, of individuals, and especially of young men, Butler would beat Cleveland out of sight. The conviction of the Augusta correspondent of the anti-Blaine Boston Herald that the people of Maine are preparing to give their great -citizen a tremendous majority is confirmed by daily reports from that State. Captain S.
B. Washburne, a brother of ex-Minis. ter Washburne, writing from Portland to a friend in N. York, says "The Democrats have about concluded to make Blaine's election unanimous." It is the opinion of Henry Cabot Lodge, the effective Republican leader in Massachusetts who tried so hard to defeat Mr. Blaine's nomination, that the Republican ticket will gain four or five Democratic votes in Massachusetts for every former Republican who rejects it.
Mr. Lodge has means of knowing, and no favoring prejudices have warped his estimate of Mr. Blaine's strength. The Saint that Cleveland Is. Something for Those to Read who Think he la Such a Superter Man.
The following has been received by Rev. C. R. West, editor of the Adrance, a leading Baptist paper of Chicago BUFFALO, N. July 12, 1884.
Dear Advance It may be too late to do you any good and may not be needed, but I feel moved to warn you against saying much to the credit of Grover Cleveland. Heisa libertine. No Christian should condone his crimes 90 far as to commend his candidacy. About seven years ago he seduced the head of the cloak department in Flint and Kent's, leading merchanta here. He kidnapped the woman after was born, sent her to the Catholic Insane asylum and took the child from her.
She escaped, got Milo W. Whitney to help her, finally settled and gave up the child tor 430. This I know to be true, for have it confirmed by Flint Kent, by Mr. Whitney, her attorney, and Mrs. Mrs.
William Baker, where the woman boarded. Mr. Cleveland has the reputation here of the grossest licentiousness. Judge James Sheidon, of the Superior Court, told me this week that be had direct proof of his recent attempt to seduce a young lady of excellent character but she becoming aware of his intent, repelled him so spirItedly that he beat a hasty retreat. I have written to the Independent and the Christian Union, and they will piny shy of him, though they did not speak of him as irreproachable.
Having seen nothing in the Advance to alarm me, I did not write you but it will do no harm tor you to know the facts. GEORGE, H. BALL. Rev. Mr.
Ball is pastor of the Hudson street Baptist church of Buffalo. The Kind of Democrat He Would Vote For. My son, you will cast your first vote for President next November. don't want to influence your vote. don't want you to vote for a certain man just because cartain other wen do.
I want you to sit down and think about it before you vote. I want you to be able to give a reason for your vote. want you to go to the polls in good company. As a young man of progressive ideas want you to be abreast of the world and shoulder to shoulderwith the times when you walk up to the polls, I want you on entering politics, to align with the party that has the purest, most progressive record. I don't care a cent, my boy, whether you are a Republican or Democrat.
There are honest men, patriotic citizens, good Christiana, in both partien. Ouly I don't want to see you walk up to the polls and cast your vote with the party That upheld slavery na a divine institution; That bought and sold men, women and babien like so many mules That fired on Fort Sumpter That for nearly five years fought to destroy the Union That opposed the tenue of green backs when the go verament WAS fairly perishing for the want of them That organized mobs nad riots to oppose the draft; That swept American commerce from the seas with armed privateers; That is the party of Boss Tweed and Jefferson Davis; That polls its heaviest majorities in the most vicious and ignorant precints That is strongest in in the States where the percentage of illiteracy is greatest That has opposed every liberal and progressive measure in legislation during the past quarter of a century That was the defender of slavery That is the defender of Mormonism That slandered Garfield and That assassinated Lincoln. Now, as I said before, my son, I don't care whether you are a Republican or a Democrat. Choose for yourself. Just keep away from the crowd whose record I have very briefly outlined.
Find the party to whom this record belongs, and then forever after keep away from it. You need not be particular with which party you vote if you don't join that one. Always vote against that party, and you will always vote about right. I am a Republican, but I will shake hands with fraternal love with any Democrat who votes against that record. That kind of a Democrat is always a good enough Republican for me.
P. -I have never found that kind of a Democrat. -Burdette. The Filth of Toulon and Marseilles. A cable dispatch to a New York paper, under date of Marseilles, July 26, says: "I have made a five-days' visit to this city, to Toulon, and to Arles, in order to learn and report for American readers some facts and scenes in regard to the cholera.
I have discussed all the phases of the epidemic exhaustively with the hospital doctors, with priests and with nurses, and my conclusion is that the much-dreaded cholera, probably the most fatal and severe of all diseases to which human flesh is heir, is a thing of which no intelligent community of well-ordered lives and well-managed sewer pipes need have an alarming fear, even when brought into close contact with it, to say nothing of getting into a panic at a distance. Passing along the narrow and squalid Rue Caisseric, over one-half the shops were seen to be closed at every crossing. From a tenement region on the hill above a stream of fetid water flowed across the street and plunged down a precipitous descent on the other side through dark lanes crowded with towering rookeries swarming below with idle men and children playing in the filthy gutters, the women meanwhile swashing the water about with their brooms under the evident impression that they were cleaning something. Each glimpse of any one of these streets is enough to turn the stomach of any healthy man. "Finally, we got on a street known as TouJon road--a wide thoroughfare without a shade tree.
Along its gutters run rivulets of drabcolored water which had overflown from the canal, when the canal was dammed now and then by heaps of rotting vegtables or worse substances, including dead cats and dogs. Four out of every five houses were found closed. Those which remained open were mainly estaminets, where, under dirty awnings and on dirty sidewalks, men and women sat drinking or were already reduced to stupor from previous drinking, and junk shops in which filthy people were sorting rotten rags in an unspeakable vile atmosphere. Festering filth was around them, and a tropical sun beat fiercely down upon the scene, blinding theeyes as its rays were reflected from the white road across which, in the Quartier Capelette, courses a stream about the size of a main sewer in New York, winding its way uncovered among the houses on its journey to the sea. This stream was laden with the sewage of the vilest of the Marseilles quarters-Capelette and the adjoining one -which have furnished much over one-half of the deaths that have occurred in Marseilles, and it is an interesting fact that the largest proportion of them were Italians.
"If, in a sanitary sense, the condition of Marseilles was frightful, that of Touion struck me as simply murderous. Although Toulon has a back ground of mountains, the city itself is situated on a flat plain, four feet only above the level of a tideless sea. The consequences arising from imperfect drainage with a natural want of slope, are that the sewers have only a fall of eighteen inches, so, with a sluggish movement, the fHth of the town drops into an almost stagnant sea. What is worse is that at the points where these drains flow they are only covered with plank, and the filth, disgustof quite 80,000 inhabitants without the fainting to the nose, impresses itself on the eyes. You not only then 1 smell but see the garbage of Toulon.
Just fancy people living in this city est glimmer of common sense in regard to public hygiene! "The plain English of it is about this That it is impossible for people who live on fruit, who drink all kinds of poor Auids, who sleep in dirt and nastiness, who breathe an air polluted by the sewage of the town itself, and rendered doubly poisonous by the excreta left by the training ships, to escape cholera. The marvel is that this disease did not find its birth here years A Romantic Elopement. PARIS, July very sensational elopement by members of two families of the Blue Grass aristocracy occurred Sunday night, but has just come to light, having been kept quiet by those interested. Mrs. James Thomas has been entertaining Miss Susie Wells, daughter of a Georgetown banker.
Among other guests was Milton Smith, an employee of her father's bank. Sunday evening Mr. Smith, Miss Wells, Miss Thomas and a gentleman friend took a carriage-drive to Millersburg. Reaching that place, Miss Thomas was asked to go with the party to Aberdeen, 0., where Mr. Smith and Miss Wells proposed to marry.
She refused, leaped from the carriage and procured a conveyance and returned home. Friends of Miss Wells, with Mrs. Thomas, procurded a carriage and set out in pursuit. Overtaking the elopers after dark, about a dozed shots were exchanged on each side, no one being wounded, though the horses were hit several times. Mrs.
Thomas became frightened for the result, and on her entreaties the pursuers abandoned the chase. The eloping party went on, and presumed were married at Aberdeen, the Gretna Green of Kentucky. Attempted Suicide at Carlisle. Elward J. Todd, eldest son of Hon.
Lemuel Todd, of Carlisle, on Friday, while under the influence of liquor, quarreled with his father, and then attempted suicide by swallowing a quantity of Fowler's solution of arsenic, which his father was using as medicine. Medical assistance was at once summoned, as he was seen taking the solution, but it was found necessary to use force to get an emetic into the would-be suicide's stomach, and thus save his life. Todd, who is about thirty-five, is a graduate of Princeton. He held an office in Washington for several years, where it is said he contracted a fondness for drink. He is associated with his father in the practice of the law.
ADDITIONAL LOCALS. DEATH OF MISS ALICE H. -The many friends of this estimable young lady, will learn with sincere sorrow of her death, which occurred in Denver, of catarrhal pneumonia, on the 12th of July, in her 29th year. MisS Lowrie was a graduate of Vassar completing the course of study in that institution with the class of 1875. After teaching several years in the public schools in the city of Denver, in September, 1880, she entered upon the duties of teacher of mathematics--to which were subsequently added the modern languages in Wilson College, this place.
Last winter during the Christmas holidays, while visiting in Philadelphia, she was prostrated by an attack of pneumonia. Acting upon medical advice, in company with her mother and brother, she started for Denver, making a brief stay in Galesburg, while on her way thither. She looked forward hopefully to a sojourn in Denver, believing that the climate would effeet a permanent cure. But instead of rallying, her strength seemed gradually to fail. She was at no time confined entirely to her bed, and the day before her death was spent much as 118- ual.
During the night her mother was roused by her cough--a little more constant and troubled than usual--and summoning her brother, the two watched by her bedside until about a. when she passed away as to a gentle sleep. The funeral services, conducted by Dr. Mof. fatt, of the First Presbyterian church, were held July 15, at the residence of the Hon.
Jesse L. Williams, Fort Wayne, Ind. The body Was laid away to rest by the side of her father, for many years the honored and beloved pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Fort Wayne. Her mother and three brothers, Rev. M.
B. Lowrie, Galesburg, Rev. J. G. Lowrie, Den- Mt, Sterling, and Mr.
Harvey C. Lowrie, and ver, with other relatives, friends pupils mourn her loss. She was a lady possessed of rare intellectual attaluments. The Daily Republican of Galesburg thus pays a just tribute to her worth: dom, humor and modesty left mingled and delightful in conversation, her press. Her friends were sure of her interest and sympathy even in the little things of inex- life, and children found her ready memory an haustible source of information and pleasure.
An enthusiastic teacher, a sincere and sympathetic friend, a loving daughter and sister, and a faithful child of God, she has passed from the weariness and pain of this mortal life to heavenly rest and peace. Her faith was strong and coustant, hor Christian hope sure and steadfast. Her last sickness served to draw her still nearer the Master, and strengthen the preparation for death made long since in days health and notivity. THE CENTENNIAL CONVENTION. The township committees of the County Centennial Association held a convention in the Court House on Wednesday.
The meeting was called to order shortly after 11 o'clock by the Chairman of the Executive Committee, Benj. Chambers, and Col. W. D. Dixon, of St.
Thomas, was selected as President, with R. J. Boyd, of Peters, as Vice- and B. F. Gilmore, of this place, and Aaron F.
Snoke, of Lurgan, as Secretaries. The reports from the different townships were, as a rule, favorable. Speeches on the matter in band were made by Messrs. McKnight, Chambers, Bowers, Cort, McMullin and others, and these contained many valuable suggestions and recommendations. At the afternoon session, John A.
Seiders, was selected as Chief Marshal for Monday, Sept. 8th, and Col. Dixon as Chief Marshal for Tuesday, the 9th, each with power to appoint two aids. It was moved, and decided, that the Executive Committee should direct the township committees to meet on an early date for the purpose of choosing a marshal and two aids to take charge of the township displays. The following resolution was passed and a much-dis cussed question disposed of WHEREAS, while it is the intention ot this meeting, as it was that of the Centennial County meeting of April 4th last, that the celebration of the Centennial of the County in September next, shall be an exclusively Franklin county one, it is desirable that all the industrial pursuits of the citizens of the county shall be fully represented on the occasion: and whereas there are 8 number of citizens residing in the county, who as agents of manutactures residing out of the county, are engaged during a considerable portion of the year, in the exhibition and gale within the county, of farm and household implements and machinery manufactured beyond the limits of the county: Resolved.
That the citizens so acting as such agents be permitted to exhibit in our centennial procession of the 9th of September next, spectmens of such implements and machinery as they have been engaged in exhibiting and selling in this county during the past year, and preyious to this date. The township committees will be instructed and are expected, to give final reports of their arrangements at an adjourned meeting of the Convention, to be held in the Court House on Tuesday, August 26th, at 10 o'clock, a. m. 30, 1884. DEAR OPINION This is our last full day in camp.
To-morrow morning we will strike tents, pack up and go home. To the Explorers these ten days on the mountain-top have been as many days of continuous pleasure. Our enjoyment has not been marred by sickness of any one in camp. The rain has not troubled us, for we are always prepared for indoor amusem*nt when we cannot be out. The hills around us have been explored considerably, and the blackberry "bushes" have been divested of their ripe fruit.
The coops that came here full of poultry are empty. The "cookadoodle-doo" and the "quack, quack, quack" are no longer heard in our camp. During the evening hours we have listened to Cy. Gordon's wonderful tale of the goose, and his inimitable caricatures on "Old Steve" and other celebrities, and we have had several excellent exhibitions of legerdemain by Prof. Bloyernoski, who is sojourning at Blue Ridge.
One of these brilliant entertainments was given in the dining room of the Chapman House, in presence of the guests of that resort, and the Explorers, and it was preceded by magic Iantern views of persons and scenes that were for the time supposed to be in this vicinity. There were recitations by Prof. Maurer, to please the little folks. On Sunday evening a devotional meeting was held in the pavilion, at which the occupants of the various summer resorts in the neighborhood were present, and at a later hour, by invitation, a service of song was held in the parlor of the Chapman House. At both these services Mr.
L. B. Eyster's fluteplaying was a prominent feature. One of the happiest campers is, Doc. Seibert, who hopes that nobody in Chambersburg may need the services of a physician when the Ex.
plorers' camping time arrives. We were pleased to have with us, for a day, our fellow-member, Spangler, who was unable to camp this season, on account of sickness in his family. The annual meeting was held on Monday evening. The old officers were re-elected, viz President, Albert Hummel; Secretary, B. L.
Maurer Treasurer, J. N. Snider. Next year's camp is to be beld at Blue Ridge Summit, unless otherwise ordered, and will be known as Camp George. The Explorers are partial to Blue Ridge, as we have many conveniences here that cannot be found elsewhere, and our kind treatment from the residents of the vicinity is highly, appreciated.
With regrets that we must leave here, we will say good bye, until July, 1885. M. CAMP MAURER, Blue Ridge Summit, July BRIDGEPORT BUDGET. -July 29th, Last Saturday afternoon the ceremony of baptism, by immersion, was performed by Rev. Wickey of the U.
B. church at Lemaster, in the little Conococheague, near the Mercersburg Junction. The candidates were Mr. and Mrs. Al.
Etter, Mr. Samuel Brubaker and Mr. Mart Conrad. Quite a crowd assembled on the shore to witness the solemn ceremony. Mr.
Harry Wiland, of Atlanta, last week paid a visit to his mother in Bridgeport. He is en route to Minneapolis, which city he purposes making his future home if pleased with that portion of Uncle Sam's vast domain. LUCRECE. SYLVAN death of Mrs. M.Grier an interesting family of six or seven little children is left without a mother.
She will be greatly missed as she was a favorite in the community. Mr. MeLane, an aged man, is now lying serionsly ill at Mr. Grier's. The bereaved husband and family have the sincere sympathy of all.
J. C. A. Thirty head of cattle out of 200 bought by N. A.
Adams at Kansas City last week, died with Spanish or Texas fever. A large number of cattle suffering from the same complaint arrived in Chicago, and were quarantined. Another train with 240 head arrived at Chicago Tuesday from Southwestern Kansas. Fifteen were found dead in the cars and 55 had been thrown out dead on the way, and a great many others were sick. Cattle men deny that the disease is Texas fever, (as the doctors claim,) and say that the cattle were posioned by eating weeds on the cars.
A girl named Boyce, aged fourteen years, was run over and killed Tuesday, the 22nd of July, on the bridge at Saxton by a passenger train on the Huntingdon and Broad Top railroad. The citizens of Saxton became enraged at the engineer, William Grow, and a mob collected at the depot for the avowed purpose of lynching him on the return trip. Grow, how. ever, bearing of his danger, left his engine in charge of another person, and escaped at a station below Saxton. Philadelphia Markets.
