of Republican influence The Republican
party is q great and powerful organization.
and it may not be lightly broken down; but
while it was sufficiently strong to send to the
field scores upon scores Of regiments, to spend
scores of millions Of dollars in perpetuating
the Union, yet it is not strong enough to
stand another term Of the nlisrule of the pre-
sent Governor"
If, after all that: the Radical party will
persist in naming the fool Of fortune" for
reelection. ws can only say that ''Barkis Is
willing" and We shall be much better salts
fed of its consistency than We should De did

common decency. Tie Telegraph further
adds:
The opposition see our weakness il John

of it. They will put forward in the contest
no mere party hack-no creature of their

people are tired of imbecility and want Of
character in their Chi,f Magistrate, and they
mean to nominate a man of character and
capacity. With such a candidate arrayed
against John w. Geary, their task will be
an easy one. They vii! have the triumph

On wo or three occasions we have referred
TO the appointment by President Grant Of
James M. Ashley as Governor of Montana
Territory. 1t was most disgraceful selec-
tion, and is so regarded by. the whole couu-
try. 1t is among the strangest of Grants
singular appointments, and one that reflects
deep dishonor on the administration. Ash
ley will have hot time of it in the Terrific

did not own any town lots or quartz proper
ty in that region. The Gazette, published at
Helena, the capital of the Territory, refers to
this statement in the following style:
Now, one thing is certain: Mr.. A. must
have the poorest memory of any man living,
or be one of the greatest liars of the age -
We would not deem it important to give any
notoriety to this one horse, played-ont car
pet-bag politician, were it not for the fact
that he has been sent out to Montana as a
missionary in the cause of Radicalism, and
for the purpose Of eVangelizing the Democra-
cy. Hence we meet him at the threshold
and den0unce him according to his demsrits.
No political humbUgger need come here

population of Montana is Christian, and can

He does not come here with clean hands
he says he owns no quartz. He lies. The
evidence stands out in bold relief against him
ia the Recorders office of Lewis and Clark

morals, and once in his life do his best to be

TwITcHELL ONCE MoRE.-A Philadelphia
correspondent of New York paper. signing
himself "Vidocq," relates the following con-
cerDing the late Geo. S. Twitchell, Jr. !;
That TwiCchell was most conSummate
knave and hypocrite, and a villain to the
last, is shown il the remark made to visit
or Il would as leave go to - as submit
20 these pious e1hortations every day, but
must stomach them" This was said imme-
diately after the innocent youth, who merely
helped to throw the body of the old woman
out of the window, had shown such deep
contrition as induced the worthy clergyma
to believe that his charge had already caught
a glimpse of Paradise.
Such was the vileness and hypocrisy of
the man. We may know some day how
Mrs. Hill was murdered. One who had the
confidence of George tells me the poker was
not used. Then the story of the slung-shot
made in Camden and found in the house, is
strengthened. The public should know all
about the murder.
I'VE understand that Mr. John O'Byrne
has now in his possession the instrument
with which the murder was committed; that
Twitchell directed him to she spot in which
it was concealed and that the murderer
also made a confession to him, which if it
was made public, would entirely relieve
Mrs. Twitchell of odium. Why doesn't Mr..
O'Byrne come out philadelphia Star.

Governor Geary.

It may now be regarded as a foregone
conclusion. that John w. Geary will be re-
nominated as the radical candidate for Gov
ernor by the convention Of his party, which
is to meet in Philadelphia on Wednesday Of
next week. There has been good deal of
talk and bluster in his own party in opposi-
ton TO his again being a candidate, and much
elimination and recrimination on that ques-
tion has taken place. That he is by far the
weakest candidate that his party could nom
mate is apparent, for many reasons which
we will not now discuss at length. There
will be time for that. That he is intellec-
tualIy weak and in vanity and self-impor-
tance unequalled and indeed unapproach-
able, is not TO be questioned. That he will
be defeated. as he ought to be, we do not en-
tertain doubt.
The Philadelphia Erening Telegraph. a
leading radical paper, in a recent article on
this subject, uses the following plain and
significant language:
Without possessing single qualification
for the Office, without having the respect OF
any significant portion of the people of the
Commonwealth. and devoid Of every quality
which should recommend him for such a
high position, the sublimity of his impudence
and his grasping need alone induces him to
thrust himself forward as a candidate for
Governor. The slave of the Ring" and
their willing coadjutor, he is for them the
most fitting instrument, and he will, it is
feared, receive their nomination. But they
apd he must clearly understand that he is
not and cannot be the choice of the great
Republican party. whom for one term nc has
already shamefully misrepresented- The
small ward politicians may possibly foist him
upon us, but just as certain as they do just
SO certain will our party organization see in
the nomination Of John w. Geary the defeat
Of It's principles, and the State will, for one
gubernstorial term ct least, lose the benefits

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE AND MURDER By A
NEGRo.-A correspondent Of the Richmond
Dispatch, writing from Lexington, Va. IN
der date of the 9th inst. gives the following
particulars of a terrible outrage and murder
committed within a few miles of that place
by negro on the evening of the 9th inst. ::
Our community has been shocked by c
horrible crime which was perpetrated some
eight miles below here, on Sunday evening
las5. The confession of the negro and other
incontrovartible testimony elicit the follow
ing facts: Miss Susan Kits, young lady of
high respectability, was or her way to
church, when q negro named Jesse Edwards
met with her, dragged her into the woods,
outraged her person. and then murdered her,
and threw her body into the river. Suspicion
fell upon The negro, and when, after pursuit,
he was arrested, he confessed the murder,
but insisted it was ia self dsfeRSc. He told
where the body could be found. 1t has been
recovered, and the examination before the
coroner revealed the full enormity of the
crime. The negro now makes fall confess
ion. but, even without his confession, the
proof of guilt is conclusive.
The fsnd was lodged in Jail on yesterday,
and was this morning brought before the
Mayor and committed for trial. The fact
that he was not lynched, but permitted to
take the slow process of trial, and pardon by
Wells. speaks volumes for the disposition of
our people to submit to even badly admins
tered laws.
The young lady was about eighteen years
old, aud bore high character in the COM
munity. Five of her brothers lost their
lives in the Confederate army. Alas that
they should have fallen in a struggle which
has resulted in such a state of things as that
a negro dare perpetrate such an outrage,
and go unwhipt of justice.

THE editor of the Johnstown Tribune is
very much mistaken if he supposes that we
have been induced to change our views in
regard to the District Court question, because
we did no. again refer to the subject in our
last issue. We have neither real anything
in that paper nor have we heard anything
from any other source at all calculated to
produce a change in our opinion relative to
the exorbitant price charged for Union Hall.
We never intimated that any undue infu-
ence had been used to induce the leasing of
that building, we did not view it as en- act
Of favoritism, nor did we drag politics into
the discussion of the subject. but treated it,
simply as question effecting the interests
Of the taxpayers of the county. We ex-
pressed our opinion plainly, and as we can
see no good that can result from its further
discussion, we do not intend again to refer
to it.

IN Rhode Island white man cannot vote

at the next session of. the Legislature, the
Radicals viii adopt the fifteenth constitu-

less negroes in the State can deposite their
votes in the ballot-box. Iu the estimation
of the Rhode Island Radicals. white man
must own house and lot in order to be
equal in value and importance to negro,
who is "silnple beauty unadorned." Every

Is the motto of the Radical party. In Wash

hacked. in order to put the Capital of the
nation under negro domination, and the same

negro be equal with the white man? He
claims superiority. and the Radicals admit
the claim.-PhaG. Age.

Archbishop Manning and DR.. On,

Archbishop Manning and DR.. Cnm-
mings of the millennium-two very differ
ent characters-agree in calling attention to
one fact. The archbishop IN a recent sermon
claimed that Catholicism was making rapid
progress in England, and as proof stated that
within a very short period eleven new
churches had been added to the Diocese of
Westminster. In the matter of Catholic
conversions. DR.. Cummings points out, as
one of the ''signs of the times" that Arch
bishop Manning has converted 2 400 persons
in London alone. OF this number, nineteen
had been clergymen of the Church of Eng
land, ten were graduates of Oxford and
Cambridge. and two were nobIemen.

WE frequently see it stated in the papers
of both parties that the next Legislature will
be called on to divide the State into Senator
ial and Representative districts. This is a
misapprehension. The constitution requires
an apportionment Of the State to be made
every sevsnh year, aud as the last one was
made in 1864, it is plain that the next one
will not take place until the session of 1871.
