1nr klGuTs OF WoNrN.-Somc ladies' have
distinguished themselves by deelaimlng against the

We understand from passenger that it was
expected that the governor would direct tho
military TO surround the state house, with view
to the exclusion from both chambers of the leg
islature Of all persons except the officers and
members ofthetwo houses.
IL unfortunately happens that Tuesday this
day is the day appointed by the constitution for
the election OF United States Senator, the coun-
ting of the votes for Governor, and proclamation
OF the votes upon the amendment TO the new
constitution. We are told that unless the amend
menls are proclaimed to be carried, the old con
stituion continues in force, and if there should
I've no inauguration of the Governor to day un-
der the old constitution, the President Of the
Senate becomes governor and occupies the CUB
ernaorial office for one year. We are not sure
TINT this is correct statement of the provisions
of the constitution, but il is certain that the
great number Of special duties which are requir-
ed to he performed in the Legislature 10 day,
adds very greatly to the other difficulties of the
question.
The Senate formed quorum on Saturday,
and both divisions of the lower house transacted
business. The Governor we believe, has not
yet officially recognized either. There was no
attempt at violence.
The correspondent ofthe Philadelphia lnquir-
cr states that A. G. Eye. Esq. Of Carlisle, was fir
ed ut in llarrsburgh on Friday night, probably
by mistake for Mr. Peurose, whom he resembles
in stature The ruf1ian who fired was about II
rod Off and when Mr. Eye turned round was
seen running away at the top of his speed. The
ball, fortunately, did not hit Mr. Ege though it
passed within IL few inches of his head

"THE SUB TREASURY ON LEGSr


The New York papers contain account of the
defalcaon of ". NJ. Price, District Attorney of the
United States for the Southern District of New
York The amount Of his abstraction oil the funds
of the Government is variously sated-one account
puts it down at 100000, and others at more or
less But short time since, it will be recoilected
that Samuel Swarwout, late Collector OF Customs
at New York, was detected, or rather his inquiries
were made public, in similar transaction, only
embracing larger amount-about ONE MILLION
AND A QUARTER OF DOLLARS Swart-
won't left this country for Europe some time since,
and a lew days ago, Price "io!iowed IN the ioot'
steps of his illustrous predecessor, and Is now
doubtless. in England, beyond the reach OF legal
process. Price appointed to the office OF Dis
trct Attorney in 1884 by Gen. Jackson, as re-
ward for his loyalty to his admins tration The
office is said to be worth about $40 900 per annum
to the incumbent. Price was one OF Van bureh
captains in the City, and Tammany Hall orator
The New York Commercial speaks of these IN
famous transactions as follows
We are enabled to add curious circumstance as
between MIR Price and Swartwout. lhere Is no
doubt that Mr. Swartwouts deialcations were known
weeks before the election. We ourselves mad an
inlimattun of the fact, and gave nlhl upon t"e
subject to a friend in Wall street, before tho nun,
nations we've made. 1t was the po'cy vi .he sos
eminent however, to keep the delinquency secre
until after the elections, lest the b-Ireasury
scheme should be jeopardedby the explosion
That Mr. Swartw out, however, had been advised
of the detection of his defalcatons, long before the
government officers admit their knowledge OF the
fact, there is undubiable proof. Very soon after
the bursting of the bubble, Mr. Price received
letter from Mr. Swartwout, in which the ialter eH
pressed surprise that there was dealcaIon IN his
money matters with the Treasury. He then pro
ceeded to inform Mr. Price that he had negotiated
sale of his Maryland property or part thereof, o
and. in reference to his alledged defalcation, re
marked to Mr. Price that it would be very unws'
for the government to make stir upon the subject
at present-that an agent was coming over ron
England, to examine the coal lands, for the sale
of which he negociatng-and that as soon a.
