Wh1n1ng.--A subscriber has shown us a
copy Of the Germantown Paper, and called
our attention to its whine over the defeat Of
Squire Gunckel, at the Justices election last
week, 1t claims that he was defeated by q
"wiry trick of the Democracy" who took ad.
vantage of the Republicans, We are unable
to "see it" We take it for granted that all
parties were posted on the fact that an cleo
ton was to be holden for Justice of the
Peace, and were made aware of the time and
place The Republicans we're especially in
formed Of the matter by the paper which they
read-and literally support, we hope, We
will not do the Republicans the injustice TO
suppose that they were ignorant of the exis-
tence and uses of rags, lamp-black and oil, +"
and of their availability and adaptation to the
fright of suffrage They are not innocent
Of the various small arts employed by parties
about election time, and theft conscientious
scruples in the use of "doubtlul powers as
applied to bringing out the full vote" are
probably not greater than those entertained
by the ''rest Of mankind"
The more we examine the dolorous claim
of our Germantown contemporary, the less we
are able to see that any injustice was done to
Squire Gunckel by the Democracy at the re.
cent election in Tulpehocken. 1t must be APP
parent to people who have acquired moder-
ate share of intelligence, that the knowledge
of the election being general and that an
election implies a contest between two or
more for place, no advantage in these re-
CARDS can accrue to any one. b If parties neg
lect to improve their Constitutional privileges
on such occasions, it is their own fault, and
it is childish to whine about the results, and
charge that they were obtained through par.
tizan advantage il ual48 5I
The gentlemen who were candidates for
Justice of the Peace at the recent election in
Germantown are our personal friends They
are estimable, intelligent gentlemen. Mr.
Gunckel, who was the incumbent, was the
Republican, and Mr.. Kern was the Democrat
ic candidate for Justice. Mr. Kern was sue
cessful, and the insinuation that he obtained
his election by any kind of fraud win not be
made by his honorable competitor, who is
cognizant of the circumstances attending the
election. And he is not the man to whine
over his own defeat, or, indeed, procure 9TH
ers to mourn over the event

Accident-The Messrs Rosenbury, mer-
| chants of this city, came near meeting with a
frightful death, one night last week. We
learn they were in buggy, and about to
cross the Hamilton q Eaton r. r. at deep
cut, and after listening to ascertain if there
was train coming, they proceeded. Their
horse was crossing the track whey they saw
locomotive under headway, and but few
rods away The next moment the rear of
the buggy was struck, crashing it to splinters,
and throwing the occupants out with violence
upon the ground, stunning and bruising them,
and cutting the head of Mr.. J. s. Rosenbury
very severely.
These gentlemen made an almost miracu-
lous escape with their lives. No signal what
ever was made by the engineer on approach
ing the dangerous crossing; and we learn
that the Railroad Company will be proseeu-
ted for this reckless disregard of life.

How the Hollins Ram was destroyed.

A correspondent of the Hartford Times
gives the following version of the finale of the
Hollins Ram, at New Orleans:
After passing the forts April 25) we had
not finished all the work that was to be ac-
complished. The first object of her attack
was the Verona, which ran ashore to save the
lives of her crew. After striking the Verona
she made for the Hartford. and ran along
side of her, but did no damage. Next she
tried the Pensacola, and then the Richmond.
(the latter vessel being the one she tried to
sink at the head of the Passes on the 18th of
October last Sh struck the ship on the
starboard bow, but did little damage As
soon as she cleared, the Richmond poured a
whole broadside into her, the effects of which
cannot state. In return, she fred upon
the Richmond. One shot Struck her stern.
Just above the water line, and started the
hood ends of six plank, and the shot is still
there. Another struck little further aft
close to the water line, and passed across the
berth deck, destroying mess chest and all
the provisions for tbe day. The Richmond s
hull received fourteen shots. one of which cut
two and half inch iron chain in two, and
is now in the ships side in direct line : it'll
the engine reom. Had it not been for the
chain, this shot would probably, haze pass
ed through ihe ship. The = RAM then
passed the Richmond and bore down on the
side wheel steam sloop Mississippi; and here
she @ caught it, IS soon as the Captain OF
the Mississippi saw her coming, he directed
his steamer into the ram, striking her in the
side and pushing her ashore. The Mississippi
then backed off and again dashed into the
ram: a second time She backed off, giving the
ram broadside then lowered a boat, went
on board and found her deserted. All the
steam pipes were cut, and she was in sink
ing condition. The officers and men had all
escaped among the bushes. As it was hardly
daylight they could not be seen.

ARE NEWSPAPERS LIARs.-Rev. Henry
Ward Eeecher, in the course of recent
sermon made an eloquent plea for news
papers, speaking of them one Of the po-
tent elements of our civilization 9 There
is,' said be, ga common vulgar objection
about newspapers that they lie SO, theY
don't lie any more than you do. Mar is
naturally lying creature. Truth is sifG
from Heaven, and very few Of US possess
it before we get there. The newspapers
give both fact and rumors, and they would
be blamed if they did not do so. 1t is for
the reader to judge of these rumors.-
The last economy should be in regard to
newspapers. 1t is better to deprive the body
of some ribbon or jewel or garment, than to
deprive the mind fits sustenance.

The CAPITOL BUILDING AT WAsHGNGToN.-
Air. Walter. the architect of the Capitol
extension, has made statement to the FL
nance Committee of the Senate of the estima-
ted cost of preserving the incomplete por-
tons of the building. The sum thus re-
quired will he considerable, and it is urged
that economy requires, as the work is sub
stantially near its completion, that it should
60 on. The very extensive and expen-
slve machinery for the construction may be
rendered yalueless by further delay in using
it, while materials in a finished condition
dressed marble, iron castings, etc. are at
hand, and need only to be put in place. The
Committee on public buildings have order
ed the contractors for the massive and COM
plete iron of the dome to go on. 1t is ar
gued by them that it had better be put in
place, rather than lie about exposed to rust
and danger of aeeident.-Sdc. Bee.
