Union may, however, console itself
with the thought that although its
publication was too late to have any
effect upon the Gubernatorial cleo

cial and it will doubtless swell the
Radical majority a few thousand
votes or more.
What says the Chronicle and the
Call? Will they allow themselves
to be cajoled or kicked into Radical
orthodoxy?

TOTAL EXPENDITURES 1860 to 1871

From this table, compiled with the
most scrupulous regard for accuracy, it
will be observed that the total annual
expense of the Federal Government,
which nndes BUCHANAN amounted to an
average of less than seventy-two mil
lions year, rose under LINCOLN to an
average of eight hundred and fifty mil
lions a year. This latter having been
the period Of the war. we pass it over.
Under the Johnson administration, the
expenditures rapidly fell from 1892, 900,
900 to S404, 100000 per annum, and had
the same rate of decrease continued un-
der GRANT, the expenditures this year
would not have amounted to over $780,
100000 per annum, including reduction
of the debt. Instead of this they rose
during GRANTS first year to S505, 900,
600, and still continue at the astounding
rate of 1853, 100000 per annum,
Let honest Radicals examine the above
figures and cease their pratings about
the reduction Of expenditures.

The Grea, wrestling Match,

PrTTsBURGH, Sept 11.-The great
wrestling match for $1,000 and the
championship of America, between John
Cross and Ralph Wolfender, came off
this afternoon at Union Park, Allegheny
About four hundred sports were pres
ent. They wrestled on the Lancashire
fashion, known to the fraternity as catch
and catcb-as youcan. They wrestled
for one hour and three quarters before
one throw was made. Previous to the
throw each was down on their hunkers
once. Cross was thrown, but his friends
claimed that Wolfender attempted to
throw sand in his eyes 50 that he could
not see The referee, VIM, Winterbot-
tom, however, refused Cross claim Of
foul and called time Wolfender came
up again but Cross refused to continue
the match and the referee decided in
Wolfender's favor Cross filed pro-
test and the stakes have not yet been
handed over.

General Ben Butler is now in the
crisis OF his fate. He is either to sink
or swim. Which he will do is soon to
be determined. He announces himself
candidate for Governor before the
Republican State Convention of Massa-
chusetts, and by a bold and audacious
canvass has awakened hatreds, animos.

Devil himself. Capital, respectability,
piety Of the New England stamp, and
the odor of John Brown, all combine TO
crush him. But most Of all is New
Englands respectablity outraged by
Buffers canvass lie has no mercy for
it. He fairly murders it. He can not
do that and escape the anathemas of the
saints, who regard the sheen of hypoc-
risy as the most valuable covering that
society wears. Therefore is it that such
journals as the New York Tribune,
IIarper's Weekly, Springfield Mass. J

are so incensed against Butler, and unite
to crush him out The New York Trib-
tine opens on him in this wise, iikening
him to turkey-cock:
In appearance, when he spreads his
tail, rufflts his feathers and inhames his
wattles, there is 70 animal 50 fierce; his
aspect is grandiy martial; but at the
first prick he collapscs like a bladder;

sneak away with bIanched visage. He
is cruel and ovcrbearing; he has been
known to kill his young, and lie attacks
the weak with rapacity; he delights to
pursue timid women and little children !
he is an Grrant coward, and Instantly
abates his swelling pomposity 1T the
sight Of stick in the hands of reso-

acts of the gobblcr is his peculiar strut

he has attracted the attention O: specta-

A Frightful Tragedy In Kentucky
"A Brother and Sister of John
Harper, Owner of LOngfellOV.
Found with their Threats Cut.

LEXINGTON, Ky, September 11.-A
murder was committed last night at
john Harper's residence, the owner of
Lonfellow, near Midway. Jake Har-
per and Betsy Harper, brother and sis
ter Of John Harper, had their throats
cut by some unknown persons. Jake
Harper was dead, but Betsy was alive at
half-past seven this morning, though she
was not expected to live but few mo-
ments. She was insensibe. No clue
could be obtained as to who were the
perpetrators of the bloody deed. When
they were found, Jake Harper appeared
as though he had been dead several
hours. 1t is rumored that they were
murdered for money.
The negro men working for Harper,
and living within few feet of his door,
knew nothing of the deed until they
found them at daylight this morning.
John Harper was lere at the time, but
left for the terrible scene at once.
LATER.
& Three negroes living on Harper's
place have been arrested up to this time.
Blood was found on their shirts, ,and the
evidence is very strong against them,
and some others that worked for him
are missing, and are suspected to be
implicated in the affair. They are be-
ing hunted up now.

p RUS Ss1A AND RUSS STA

LONDON, September 11.-The follow
ing are the principal conditions of the
treaty made between Russia and Prus-
sia at Versailles early this year: Should
the war involve Austria by intervention
or otherwise, Russia was to act with
Germany, furnishing a specified number
of troops and ships. These allied pow
ers were to make peace only On the fol-
lowing terms: Austria was to renounce
in favor of Germany all of Bohemia,
Moravia. Silesia and the Duchy of Salz-
burg Austria was to renOunce in favor
of Russia the provinces of Gallicia and
Dalmatia. When the changes became
accomplished facts, Russia was to cede
to Germany five towns and harbors on
the Baltic Sea, with part of the coast,
and Prussia was to regard the Treaty
Of Paris null, to pledge herself to arm
ed participation in conquests in the East
with force equal to that of Russia, ,and
to a subsequent partition of the con-
quered territory.
Russia was fooled, as was France in
1866.

SINGULAR DISCOVERY,
A Number OF human Bones Found
Under a ssuge Rock about IL
Miles from wheeling,

w
EDITOR REPORTER: Last Saturday /
paid flying visit to Dillies' Bottom,
opposite to this place, and some twelve
miles below Wheeling The discovery
made at that place few days ago Of
human bones found buried beneath two
tremendous rocks on the side Of the
hill, on the farm of johnson L Jones,
Esq, but very short distance from his
residence, has occasioned quite an ex-
citement in that locality. Mr.. Jones
son, small boy, accidentally made the
first discovery while passing over the
rock, and Immediately communicated to
his father what he had seen, which led
to the beginning of general investi-
CATION. 1t appears that the rock in its
fall broke into about two equal parts
The rock before it was broken would
measure twenty five feet in length, ten
or twelve III width by three or four feet
in thickness Mr.. Jones being aided by
quite a number of persons who have
visited this place to satisfy curiosity, has
been able to remove one of the rocks.
and underneath were found eight human
skulls, two of them nearly perfect, be;
sides large number of bones of grown
persons and children, some of the chill
dlen have certainly been very small by
the appearance of the exceedingly small
bones. Two large bones, pronounced
to be the bones of a giant, have been
found with the relics, one of them a
thigh bone. A small excavation has
been made under the other rock and
quite number of bones have been ia
ken out. 1t is the intention to have this
rock removed as speedily as possible
Many are the conjectures as to what
caused those unfortunate persons to be
under the rock when it fell upon them,
1t is apparent that they have either fled
there for safety from storm to secrete
themselves from an enemy or to find ref
uge,and while enjoying their safe retreat
the rock gave way and crushed them with
its ponderous weight. The bones found
lay directly against the underside of the
rocks. 1t is generally believed that
they are Indian bones, but nothing has
yet been discovered, with the exception
of peculiar red paint or soft stone,
that the race of people to which they
belong can be identified. No doubt this
accident happened some centuries past,
a large walnut tree has grown between
where the rocks lay, and where it broke
off from the main rock. The Oldest in
habitant, an aged gentleman, in that To-
cality, says that in his boyhood he had
observed those rocks, and they had APP
parently been lying in position long be-
fore his day. Mr.. Jones is preserving
all the relics. If any thing new is found
in the further investigation of those re-
mains you will hear more. Anon.
