The North Bran Oh Canal.

The recent breaks in this canal has
caused great loss and inconvenience to
our Coal Operators. The dam across
the Susquehanna, 8 or 10 miles above
Tunkhannock, is complete wreck, and
will probably be impossible for a year or
more. Thus ends all our hopes for the
success Of the North Branch Canal. We
do not pretend to understand the why and
the wherefore of these constant Interrupt
tions, but there surely must be some serious
dereliction of duty somewhere. 1t is ex.
traordinary that This Dam should be so
lightly constructed as to give way to a
freshet, such as the one which caused the
disaster. Here we see the work Of some
200 men for six months, demolished by
one of the lightest freshets we could well
have-how the Dam could have been ex.
pected to withstand the high tides, and
powerful currents which we frequently see
is mystery. To say that this new and
serious interruption, is the result of acci
dent, for which nu one can be held
accountable, is sheer nonsense. There
must be gross misman agement somewhere
and we should like to see the matter,taker
up, and a strict investigation made.

Our Great Confederacy.


At the meeting of the next Congress
two new States will be in readiness for
admission into the Union - Minnesota and
Oregon. The progress made thus far fully
warrants the expectation. The Constitu-
ton of Minnesota prohibits slavery. What
position Oregon will take on the same
subject is as yet uncestain. IN effect,
however, Oregon is and will continue to
be free State. These will increase the
members of the confederacy to thirty three,
without counting Kans $, whose admission
in some shape now seems imminent. The
Constitutional Convention of Kansas will
meet again in, q few days, resume and
conclude its labors, and the Constitution
thus framed will either te submitted to q
popular vote or sent to Congress without
such endorsement, At the approaching
session of Congress, therefore, the Union
will be materially increased in numbers.
Steps will also, no doubt, be taken to
organize the new territories of Arizona,
Dacotah and Carson, thus raising the
number of territories to the same total as at
present.

Murder In Philadelphia.

About fyo o'clock Wednesday afternoon
last, the most shocking tragedy which it
has ever been cur lot to record was per-
petrsted at the St. Lawrence Hotel, on the
south side Of Chestnut street. As far as
we can learn tie facts, it appears that Mr..
Richard Carter, the president of-the An
thracite Bank Of Tamaqua, Schuylkill
county, arrived 10 the city, and took up
his quarters at the above hotel, yesterday.
A few days previtas to this, young man,
who gave bis name as Thomas Washington
Smith, arrived here from the South, and
put up at the Madison House. At the
above hour, yesterday afternoon, Carter
and Smith were observed sitting upon a
sofa, in the corner ofthe parlor fronting
on Chestnut street. There was nothing
exciting in their manner, and the casual
observer would have Supposed that they
we're engaged in the most friendly conver-
sation. They occupied their seats for a
considerable length of time, when Smith
drew from his pocket Colts revolver
Both parties arose from their seats, when
Smith commenced firing upon Carter AT
the third fire Carter fell fatally wounded,
and Smith fred two more loads into the
body of the wounded man while lying
PROSTATE upon the floor, in apool ofblood
and the coolness of the murderer, who
quietly walked Of, and the terror which
was depicted on every countenance in the
room, was scene most shocking.
The wounded man died in a few moments
and was conveyed tohis room, in the upper
part of the buildipg Officer Albright, o
the Reserve Corps, who happened to be il
the vicinity at the time, took Smith to the
central police station, where he appeared
perfectly cool and collec.ed.-1He Press

1t is now certainty that the election
in Minnesota for state officers has resulte d
in Democratic triumph. The Hon,
Henry Fl. sibley, the Administration
candidate for Governor, and 1.-THE Dem O.
cratio candidates for STATE ofhcers are
elected. Messrs. Becker, Phelps and
Cavanagh, the Democratic nominees for
Congress, are also elected by decided
majorities. The Democrats have also a
majority in both branches of the I.egisla.
ture, which gives them tho election of two
United States Senators.

The Elections.

The Massachusetts, election on Tuesday
last resulted in the choice af. Nath nrial p
Banks, the Republic an A merican candidate
for Governor, by large plurality over
Gardner, American, and Beach, Democrat.
The combined vote of the Democratic and
American candidates exceeds that cast'for
Mr.. Banks. An election was held on the
same day in New York for various State
officers. The Demo cratic majority in the
city of New York is $4,000 and Fernando
Wood is reelected mayor. The returns
from the interior of the State are frag.
mentary and incomplete, but they every.
where show large DemocSatip gains as
compared with tho vote Of last fall when
Fremont carried the State. The result is
extremely doubtful.

Dear Reader -
Spending few days with an
absent and younger brother--the youngest
Of six brothrcn-whom | had not seen for
about twenty.ope years, and have travelled
about 600 miles to see, / feel like saying
something to you respecting matters and
things in the BuokeyeiState. I have visit.
ed portion of the Western Reserve, and
sojourped, for a time, in Springfield, near
Akron, in Summit county, beautiful Sec
ton and excellent agricultural district Of
Ohio. Good wheat is raised here and all
kinds of produce, but the price is what We
North Eastern folks would call killing lov.
Wheat will scarcely command 81 90 per
bushel, apples and potatoes 25 cents each
per bushel, and other articles low in pro-
portion.
The scenery down the Ohio River, by
steamboat or railroad, west of Pittsburg,
with Ohio on the North and Virginia on
the South, is particularly picturesque and
delightfully."- pleasant. Politically, Ohio is
redeemed. The democracy has gained a
great victory, in electing their Legislature,
and although Chase has the certificate for
Governor, by about 1900 majority, it is a
fact that some 1900 negroes voted for him,
without authority of law, which when in
vestigated, as it will be, will no doubt,
place Col. PAYNE in the Gubornatorial
Chair of Ohio.
To-day Ireurn to Pennsylvania. Ex-
pecting to stop, temporarily, in Pittsburg,
! intend to revisit my native homo in
Clearfeld. And now as thotime approaches
when we must separate, IBID adieu to
friends we love and from whom we have
long been severed-how hard it is to take
the parting hand-to say farewell-dear
friends-farewell.
