Slenker's excess,

1t is thus seen that Wallace falls but
1888 votes behind the State ticket in the
district, As this may not be as we'll un.
derstood in Clearheld MS il is in Blair, we
will explain: s. S. Blair was the Repub,
lican candidate for Congress. against Mr..
McAllister, Democrat, l.. w. Hall was
defeated by Blair for the Congressional
nomination, and at the recent election.
wherever a McAllister Democrat could
be induced TO vote for Hall for the Senate,
Halls friends had Republican ready to
ercha,ge from Blair to McAllister. This
is the sole reason why Wallace runs be-
hind his State ticket in Blair county and
while we rejoice in the defeat of Mr.. Blair,
not orly on account of his radical Aboli>
sion principles, but also because of his
mean conduct in turning q poor orphan
girl out Of the Post Office at Tyrone, We
yet say it was dastardly conduct on the
part OF some 400 or 500 Democrats Of Blair
county. Blair would have been defeated
wlthoutauy such sacrifice Of principles on
thc' part. Their conduct bears a sad
contrast with the 1855 good and true
Democrats of Blair county whose integrity
cculd not be warped 70 prove that we
are correct let IS compare the vote oi
Blnir for Congress, with the vote for his
Stale iicket" in Blair and Cambria coun
ties.

weeks ago the wife of Mr.. George J.. Ford,
Of glastonbury, Ct, who has mourned un
ceasingly over the loss of two childIen
three or four years ago, and had recently
been troubled with church difficulties,
spiritualism, &c, and was in poor health,
became violently insane. Her father and
mother-Mr. Lucius Talcott and wife
came TO assist her husband in taking care
of her, and after four days and nights OF
ircessant care Mr.. Ford and Mr.. Talcott
and wife also became insane-through a
sort of mesmerc Influence, Mr.. Ford
thiuks-snd all four were shouting and
breaking all the furniture in the house
The neighbors removed Mr.. Ford from
the presence Of his wife, when he became
rational again and remains So Mrs. Ford
was removed to the Insane Retreat Mr.
Talcott and wife were taken there a few
days later, and Mr.. Talcott has since died.
All the parties ore of responsibility and
property. Mr.. TOlcott and wife were
spiritualists.

pESplt is sAID that careful calculation
shows that in many, if not most of the ag-

Federal government will not pay the cost
OF collecting. Thus the law only operates
to keep in pay horde of collectors, and
is provision !or an electioncering army
ofparty hacks. BY its indirect operation,
the taxes fall heavily upon these same
districts. The articles of purchase are
doubled, the markets Of sale diminished,

An engiuc started from Alexandra yesterday and
proceeded las far M Bristow. Shortly alter arriving
tAere train OF ears was seen approaching from the
other side but which, on discovering their danger,
starred back aud disappeared.
Eight Rebel soldiers were found at Brstow who
bad been stationed there to guard and assist in load
ing the debris found among tho runs OF the trains
destroyed ut that place. They were captured and
brought down AS prisoners. Sixteen freight cars
were also found unujured at MANASSAS, with about
half car load of ammunition which had been piled
Oh tie ground and covered with canvas.
The Rebels il seems, got The idea started by some
Union prfoners, that this was sn internal machine
and 70 refused TO approach ii. IL was loaded and,
with the cars, all brought down to Alexandria.
No other troops were discovered in the vicinity.
