HIcShane in Pittsburgh,

Dear Freeir1un: The Courts, State and
National, are AL in s'the full tide of sue
c,sstul operation," and thous ht it right
to attend here in for6prid persona, ard give
you such items as might interest you and
your readers. Stopped at the St Charles
got a room on the first floor, No. 93-
for at this house the higher the figures the
lower the room. OF course, was within
easy marching distance of the dining
room. On Monday morning l sauntered
up to the Supreme Court Room, which is
in an obscure corner of the Court House
building, corner of Fifth and Grant streets
| reached this point through about four
squares of dirty pavements and muddy
streets, and then had to climb three dis,
tinct series of stone steps, enough to take
the breath from anybody. This location,
above the surrounding world, may suit the
lauye1S, but it is very difficult for laymen,
(quere, lame men, to reach it. When
these difficulties are all surmounted you
may find your way to the chamber occu-
pied by the S. C.-if there is anybody to
direct you
But got there The. Court was COM
mencing It's sessions for the "old tenth
district" Westmoreland, Indiana, Arms
strong and Cambria-the latter county
having been since changed TO the twenty
fourth district.
On former visits to Smokedom I have
heard the word ''copperhead'' very freely
applied by those calling themselves gentle
men, to those who cere gentlemen. On
the present visit did not hear the term
used. This is the ''result of the election. >
l account for the fact Of Allegheny
county giving 6,0OO majority by the un-
qualified assertion that TO man can go into
anything here aC.th c!ecn hands
The St. Charles Hotel is better kept
than ever. The rooms clean to a miracle
for Pittsburgh, an excellent bill of fare,
and a very fair bill
The streets of Pittsburgh I found mud
der than the muddiest part of the road
from Ebensburg to Carrolllown.
Visited T.. s. District Court room.
Found the building damp and chilly, al
though Moore Cole was marshalled there
than usual.
But enough of Pittsburgh! Give me
in preference, now and forever, my own
mountain home. Uncleanlily;y ours,

National Democratic Address.

The following address has been issued
by the Democratic Resident Executive
Committee at Washington, d. c.:
FELLOW CrTIzENs-Patriotism and fra
ternal love unite their voices in calling
upon every American freeman to remember
that one day spent in the service of his
country, may avert many days of national
disaster and distress. The immediate
present, fraught with the mightiest affairs
of state, cannot be neglected by support
ers and defenders of constitutional law and
liberty. The present involves a turning
point i'll our history. A splendid and
crowning victory for Democratic conser-
vatism, stability, the integrity of our ma
tionality, will render our progress in the
march of nations equal and indivisible
1t is not our object to specify in detail the
reasons that ought to govern the action in
this crisis of all sincere friends of the true
principles of our government. They are
weighty and manifold They appeal to
the reason and judgment of the people
with the same force and spirit which
conquered the independence Of America,
sustained her honor and glory in 1912,
added to her renown in 1916, and pre-
served her unity and integrity in 1861.
1t Is our country calling upon her pa4ri-
otlc sons to do their duty. 1t is o.. .s1other
extending her hands to her children for
support. He who refuses to iced the call is
unworthy of his share in the rich heritage
of American freemen. Every recollection
of the glorious past, every remembrance
of the mighty deeds and mighty names of
our heroes and our martyrs, every consid~
Grafton in the present, peace, concord,
fraternity, union, prosperity aud happi-
ness-all demand that in the hour OF
coming action every true soldier OF
American independence, of the Constitu-
ton, of liberty, and of law5 shall be found
in the line of battle. Strike the enemy
by your votes with the strength of Joye.
Let your blows through the ballot box be
sure and effective, and let Radicalism-
thus practically and etfectually find Its
final death blow and winding sheet in the
lasting memory of its many crirues.

A Wolf In Sleeps CIothIEz.

We much regret that want of space
prevents Us from transferring to our col
umns, from the Sunday Mercury, a fur
ther account of that clerical scamp, Req.
J. L. Richards. This fellow reached
Philadelphia in the character of clergy
man, and was Hospitality received by our
former fellow citizen, Mr.. JAMES II. DA-
Wis, and kindly entertained for nearly two
months, This kindness was repaid with
base ingratitude, followed by gross libel,
for which lis reverence has just paid the
penalty, before Judge Ludlow, in the
Quarter Sessions.
Meanwhile the formee congregation of
Richards, at Big Rock, Illinois, was ad-
dressed, and they give their quondum
preacher anything bu! a flattering charac>
ter. They say: "He had to leave our
church disorderly, after doing a deed that
he ought not 20 do" &c.
Our friend, MIR. Davis, deserves credit
for exposing this hypocrite, and warning
his countrymen of the style of this impos'
tor, that he may not give further trouble
in religious circles.

A THRILLING RAILROAD ACCIDENT
While the freight train on the Mississippi
Central Railroad was going southwark
Tuesday morning from Grand Junction,
the track suddenly spread. The result
was the smashing and almost complete
demolition of one car, and the damaging
of six others. Fortunately, no person
aboard was injured. On the same morn
ing an accident occurred to the northward
bound passenger train on the same road,
eight miles from Holly Springs. The
train was proceeding over lengthy stretch
of trestle-work, at full speed, when sud-
denly the forward car ran off the rails and
commenced jolting over the ties. The
train was at least fifty feet from the ground,
and at distance of fifty yards from the
end of the trestle- work
The engineer. Mr.. Savage promptly
reversed the engine, hoping to stop the
train before it could be precipitated below,
which result seemed inevitable, but the
impetus was too great. and marvellous as
il may seem, the cars continued en- route
at great speed ,-every moment lessening the
distance between the trestle-work and the
firm track beyond. and passing TO place
of safety without single Car being detach-
ed or single car injured. A gentleman
aboard the train informs Us that no words
could depict the horror of the passengers
during the few moments Of peril. All
knew that the trestle>work was great
distance form the GROUND, and every mo-
ment anticipated being hurled below.
When the train finally stopped, the feel
ings of the lately imperiled passengers may
be more easily imagined than described.
Dnring the perilous passage of the train,
the conductor, Mr.. Long, deeming its es-
cape from destruction impossible, jumped
from the platform of car to the ground,
distance of thirty~fve feet at that point
The injuries sustained were of a trivial
character. This was one of the most re-
markable railroad accidents on record, and
the escape of the passengers from either
death or. horrible managing seems scarcely
less than a miracle.-.MemphiS Ledger,
October 26.

VlCTORY!
blN]CllTIG 7RIThEH IN IIE YORK
NEW JERSEY FELLOWS SUIT,
OTHER STATES DO NoBLY.

Wednesdays mail has brought US the
gratifying intelligence that the State of
New York has gone Democratic, in the
Election on Tuesday, by from $4,000 to
SO, 900. The city gave majority of 60, :
.O22 for the Democratic ticket. To add
70 the glory of this overwhelming triumph,
lit is considered probable that the pSSiIrlos
Gratis have gained the Legislature.
In New Jersey the true friends cf the
Union are said TO have carried everything
before them, defeating negro suffrage and
securing majority in the Legislature.
Massachusetts has gone Republican, ot
course, but even from that dark corner Il
creation there is reason to believe that a
ray of light, in shape Of greatly reduced
radical majoIities, will yet gladden. the
hearts Of the conservative masses
In Kansas negro and female suffrage
have both found their quictus.

The INsURRECrIoN IN ITALY.-The la
test intelligence per cable from Europe is
to the effect that on Sunday last, 4 III inst. i,
the PaPal troops, supported by the French
forces, attacked Garibaldi at Monte Ro-
tondo, and defeated him. Some reports
say that Garibaldi is prisoner, and others
that he was killed. About half an hour
after the attack commenced Garibaldi,
finding that his retreat was cut off, fought
his way to the town of Monte Rotondo,
where he was reinforced by some Italian
troops, bnt the French coming to the as
sistance of the Pontifcal soldiers, he was
beaten. Another account says that he
rctrcated and surrendered to the Italians.

RoME.-Garibaldi, the soap chandler
and general disturber of the peace, is not
getting along as we'll in his little filibus-
tering arrangement before Rome, as some
of his friends would desire. He has with
him lot of ragamufins, whose whole
object is plunder. They do not represent
the people any more than the brigands
of Mexico represent the true interests of
the people of that country. Victor Eman-
uel does not accept the offer of Louis
Napoleon to leave the question to a vote of
the Italian people, announced by the cable.
We should not be surprised to hear of
Mr.. Seward, who is always on the look
out for hit, and is frequently successful,
proposing to the ruling powers of Europe
TO guarantee to the Pope ten miles square,
making Rome the centre. This would be
an exact copy of the greatest republic
in the world, which has always claimed
for the free exercise of the Federal author
ity just that extent of territory. We
have doubt that the Holy Father would
be delighted TO be rid of the vexation
which has always accompanied his tenn
poral duties, His rule has always been
so parental and mild. that his limited do
minions have been the refuge of uneasy
spirits thrown off in the various disturb
ances in Europe, who, having nothing else
to do, stir up strife for the love of it, and
have, on more than one occasion, been
the means of embroiling surrounding ma
tions in contentious. If the Pope only
sympathised with the school ofpuritanical
Yankee pedlers, it would not be long be-
fore we;would hear of fleet of iron clads
in the Mediterranean 70 protect him.

1HE PEDESTRIAN AND HIS WAGER
Edward Payson Weston, the pedestrian is
twenty-eight years of age, weighs some
l35 pounds, is of light complexion, and
has pleasant expression of countenance,
without developing any particular charac-
terlstlcs. He has undertaken a journey
OF twelve hundred and twenty-six miles,
in thirty days, less the four Sundays,
on wager of $4,000. The startius
point was Portland, and the ending Chi
cago. He is attended by John Grindell,
well-known pedestrian, and Edward In
gals; and Mr.. L. +. Wilcox, the other
party to the wager is represented by Benz
Jamin NJ. Curtis and John 7. Laphen.
The latter gentlemen 60 over the route
with Weston, but ride in a carriage.
Messrs, Grindell and Ingalls, are also al
lowed that privilege when they desire.
Weston wears a blue sack coat, short
breeches close to the skin, red socks, and
galter shoes reaching well above the an
kles. Upon his head he has hat nearly
white, made of cloth, the rim of which
was bnttoned at the top from four sides.
In his hand he carries rattan stick. His
gait is easy and his speed fast.
The utmost care is taken to preserve his
health. He eats sparingly of eggs. chick
en-, beefsteak and stale bread drinks cold
tea, sleeps on husks and expects to accom-
plish his journey by the 28th inst; or
rather he has that period in which to ac-
complish it. The feat is one that will tax
the courageous pedestrian, and if he ac-
complishes it the sum named is none too
much for compensation.
