From one of our correspondents in Austria =
( SALDURa CRY, Province of Salzburg,(
,o August 10, 1871.
Your correspondent has obtained the fol-
Towing private information from diploma
hist of high position -
Russia and France, it is said, have formed
An alliance against Austria and Germany.
PREPARING FOR WAR.
The military organization in Russia is being
pushed vigorously on the Prussian system of
forced service and of two successive classes
tDf reserve.
ALL RUSSIANS MUST BIZ SOLDIERS.
It is carried out with the utmost vigor,
ho exemptions being granted even to the
privileged classes that have hitherto enjoyed
Immunity from military service.
MILITARY DEpoTs.
. In consequence of the enormous extent of
the country provincial depots for the recep-
Hion of recruits and war material are to be
Established all over the empire, as far as the
borders of China and Bokhara.
INSPECTION OF THE FRONTIERS.
A number of staff officers are examining
khe frontiers, in order that all the weak points
may be adequately guarded in case Of war
hnd simultaneous attack of several foreign
Powers.
These officers have already submitted re-
ports of their inspection to the imperial Rus
sian government.
OTHER PREPARATIONS.
The military authorities are also making
experiments to test how soon corps darmfes
In the advance can lay line Of railways for
fhe purpose Of forwarding supplies.
All these preparations are apparently di-
tected against Austria and Germany.
THE MEANING OF THE ARMAMENrs.
The relations between the Cabinets of st.
Petersburg and Vienna are said to be cold and
tnfriendly. The fact that the Emperor Fran
els Joseph has sent representative to well
come the Gear, who will pass through Austrian
territory on his return to st. Petersburg in-
stead of going to meet him personally, is
tnysteriously commented upon in diplomatic
circles.
FRANCO-R RUSSIAN ALLIANCE
On the other hand, the relations between
the Emperors William and Francis Joseph
have become markedly cordial.
In case of war everything is politically pro-
missing we'll for Austria. There are strong
apprehensions of an alliance between France
and Russia.
AN AUsTRo- GERMAN ALLIANCE.
To meet this alleged hostile combination
Germany and Austria are about to form an
alliance, offensive and defensive. This will
be the subject of discussion between the EN-
perors William and Francis Joseph at Gas
tein, where Count Beust is also sojourning.

Reported Indian Land Frauds.

The New York Times publishes
from it's Washington correspondent an
astounding exposure just brought to
light by an investigation, under
authority of the Interior Department,
of gross frauds and Irregularities in
the issue ofChippewa land scrip, under
the treaty Of 1854, by which a bounty
of eighty acres Of land was granted to
the hali-breeds of the "Chippewas OF
Lake Superior who were heads of
families or males Of twenty-one years
and upwards. Several hundred alleged
fraudulent applications were granted
and scrip issued thereon. The amount
of land involved is said to be sixty
thousand acres, valued at upward OF
SlSO,O0O. The commissioners who
made the investigation, and now make
the report, assert that they have
abundant evidence Of the completely OF
ex.Commissioner Dole in the improper
issue of this scrip. L. Z. Webb, ex,
Indian agent; Frank Steel, OF George
town, D. c.; n. w. Kittson, Isaac Van
Etten, and several other citizens OF st.
Paul, are also said to be implicated.

The Late John c. Rives.

We have been reading little Of the
life of the late John C. Rives, who was
for many years the sole proprietor Of
the Congressional Globe, and truly he
was a good and generous man. On one
occasion he asked his confidential clerk,
an old pressman, who had worked and
sweated in his service for many years,
show his (Mr. Rives) bank account
stood" The old fellow told him sup
ward Of $4,000" Mr.. Rives handed him
a check for a large sum, telling him to
take it, that he had worked hard for
him, and in future he mustn't work so
hard" At another time his foreman
was elected to some fat Office and re-
tired from the Globe office. Some
weeks afterward the retired foreman
found at his house dinner service Of
silver amounting to at least one thous.
and dollars. To another foreman who
was without a home.for his large family,
Mr.. Rives stopped before his desk
one day and asked: Have you
bought house yet" The foreman
couldn't see" and said mo" "Why
don't you p he asked. The fellow took
the hint and bought. "Got that house
yet p asked Mr.. Rives, soon after. " es,
sir? "How much p "$l700." Cheap
enough" said Mr.. Rives, and he paid
for it. These facts we find recorded Of
him, and it is only the pity that there
are left 80 few men like to rejoice the
poor laboring mans heart. He is in
heayen.-Hillsboro, (N. c. Recorder.

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

The Senatorial Convention of the
FIRST District was held in Wellsburg
yesterday and resulted in the nomina-
ton of A. J. PANNELL, OF Ohio and w.
X. PENDLEroN, of Brooke, to represent
the District in the Constitutional Con-
vention, and JOHN CUNNINGHAM, Of Han
cock county, as candidate for the
State Senate. This completes the ticket
to which we trust the Democracy Of
this county will give hearty and har-
monious support this fall. All Of the
candidates presented are we'll known to
the people of Ohio county, except it
may be Mr.. CUNNINGHAM, of Hancock.
He resides in the upper portion of Han
cock county, and is fully vouched for
as a straightforward, industrious and
upright business man and farmer; a
man Of sterling sense reliable DEM
ocrat: and enjoying the confidence of all
who know him. He has been nomi-
mated by the vote Of Brooke and Han
cock, the vote of this county having
been equally divided between him

THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS.

Public interest during the past few
DAYS has been so completely absorbed
in the tidings from Chicago that the
elections in Pennsylvania and Ohio
have been we'll nigh forgotten. The
news from the northwest engrossed the
attention even of those who were called
upon to vote and the consequence is
that in all the States that held elections
last Tuesday an unusually light vote
was polled and the returns are unusual
" slow in being reported. The infor-
nation we have is not quite as satlsfac-
tory as we hoped it would be, and,
although there Is still some room upon
which to build doubt, the probabilities
are in favor of Republican success.
The election Of MOVES and the re-
mainder of the Radical State ticket in
Ohio is, Of course, conceded
and creates no disappointment
because it has been expected. The
indications are, however, that the Re
publicans will have majority in both
branches Of the Legislature, and thus
secure the election of SHERMAN or some
equally Objectionable man to the Senate
of the United States. The calculations
OF the Democrats seem 10 have been
strangely at fault, for it is reported that
Belmont county that was considered
absolutely sure to send a Democrat to
the Legislature has been carried by the
Radicals. The Radicals also elect their
straight ticket in Cuyahoga county, and
thus disappoiDt the expectations of the
election OF Judge RANNEY and his
associates in the reform movement.
The result in Pennsylvania is not
absolutely known. The Republicans
claim to have Twelve Thousand major
;ty in the State, but their claim is not
yet allowed by the Democrats, anu
there is still possibility that there
may be small majority the other way.
The complexion OF the Pennsylvania
Legislature is not materially changed;
at least not for the better: and it is
probable that the Republicans will have
the choice Of Senator CAMERoN's sue
cessor.
Several days will probably elapse
before either the character of the Ohio
Legislature or the result Of the election
in Pennsylvania can be accurately
known, and, in truth, men will manifest
very little anxiety to hear until after the
excitement concerning the Chicago fire
abates something of its intensity.

and Mr.. GIBSON, of New Cumberland.
OF the other candidates 1t is scarcely
necessary for us to speak individually.
They all, except Professor PENDLEroS,
reside here, are our neighbors and &C.
ouaintances, and are favorably known
to our people And the acquaintance OF
the citizens of Ohio county with Mr..
PENDLEroN is scarcely less than that
with the most familiar name on the
county ticket. He is President of the
Faculty of Bethany College in Brooke
county, and is universally recognized as
one of the most profound scholars and
accomplished gentlemen in the State
As a member Of the Constitutional Con-
vention, his services will be invaluable.
The ticket being now complete, 1t
behooves the Democracy OF the county
to stand shoulder to shoulder in an
earnest effort for its election. 1t has
been fairly nominated in accordance
with the usual custom Of the party
and all who profess Democratic prIn-
ciples owe il 10 the candidates and to
themselves to give the ticket their
earnest and united support. These
men represent the principles for which
our party contends, they agree with us
in political sentiment, they will labor
to secure the constitutional reforms
that the majority Of the people
have demanded, and for these rea'
sons they are entitled to the vote
of every Democratic citizen OF the
county. The election on the Goth will
not hinge merely upon choice between
men; it involves something more I'M
portant 1t is a choice between pTln
ciples; it will express Il preference
between political measures. ThI;
being the case, evrey citizen whose
opinions are in accord with those oftht
gentlemen selected to represent the
Democratic sentiment OF the county
cannot hesitate nor refuse to lend hls
aid TO the election Of the entire tickle

THE Mormons had better pull up
stakes and light out" The course
adopted by the Federal authorities
affords slim margin for Mormoudom
TO escape from the law unshorn OF It's
distinctive traits. Further arrests Of
Mormon leaders continue, including
That of CANNON, the fre-eating editor OF
the Deseret Ne,cS. The point selected
by the authorities for attack is the
polyganous feature Of the Mormon
church, CANNON, like YOUNG, being
arrested for lasciviously cohabiting
with different women" The only hope
for the simon-pure Mormon is to pack
NJ and plunge into the wilderness.
