GOVERNMENT MONEY GoNE.-It seems
true that, BY. some process as yet unknown,
about five thousand dollars in currency
were stolen from the old Mint building, now
used as United States sub-treasury office.
Those in authority have used every effort
to keep the circumstances secret, which
resulted in creating some wild statements
about bags of gold having been stolen, ac-
tually carried of before the eyes of respon-
sible persons. No one is suspected as Yet,
but it is possible that the culprit may be
detected before many hours. There is no
news of the affair at police headquarters.
1t is believed that it was taken by some
one outside reaching overrthe railing when
the cashiers back was turned. No susi
picion attaches to any OF the employees of
the Mint.

opportunity, for, by simply depositing a
trifing fee, you will be able to present
some fair one with silver set or an organ,
q delicious cake or basket of rare flowers,
which she will cherish for years, remember
ing the object as a memento Of delightful
evenings in Odd Fellows Hall.
Instead of taking your dinner or supper

elsewhere. Even single visit may result
in good for yourself and "a praiseworthy

in the evening a feast of music and more

Great excitment was caused at
Fort Shaw by the buffaloes cross
ing Sun River just above the fort,
in Immense numbers. The garri-
son turned out, and slaughtered
them by hundreds. 1t is supposed
they wore driven across by a band
of Sioux Indians, who are said to
be moving in the direction Of the
fort. The bufaloes rubbed the
telegraph poles down faster than
the men could reset them.

The repeal of the law which provided
that the first session of each Congress
should commence on the 4th of March
instead of the first Monday of Decem-
ber, was wise and proper. There never
was any good reason for the change of
the old established rule. 1t was one of
the temporary devices of the Republi-
can party, of which the country has had
more than enough. 1t served their turn
during the time of Andrew Johnson,
but was found to be source of incon-
venience. Still the Republicans of the
House were disposed to perpetuate it.
1t was only repealed by majority of
one, with all the Democrats voting in
the affirmative. We hope the time may
soon come when the last one of the shifts
and temporary expedients of the Radi-
Gals shall be wiped from the statute
| books.

Sherman Retreating!

The whole administration at Wash.
ington and Radical leaders generally
'came down" on Gen. SHERMAN with
all the power of threats and fearful coax
ing because of his New Orleans speech,
and they assert that they have induced
him to say that he was not correctly re.
ported. Ahem! if Gen. SHERMAN has
been induced to this latter assertion
why don't they get him to tell the pub,
lie what he did say at New Orleans ?
There would be force in such an expla-
nation as that, but to say simply that
he was not correctly reported. without
other explanation, amounts to just
nothing. They attempted to get him
TO deny the main assertions in the
speech but in this they utterly failed.
Whether the Radical batteries can force
him to retreat entirely from his truthful
position remains to be seen.

The Coal Troubles.

Much negotiation in regard to resump.
tion has been going on during the past
week. At Centralia the miners have
gone to work. Also at Ashland and
Schuylkill county generally. Also in
the Lehigh region and in Luzerne,
except in the vicinity of Scranton, where
only few mines are in operation. The
probability is that work will be every
where resumed in short time.
LATER. The colicries in Schuylkill
are nearly all now in full operation.
The question of wages for this year was
settled on the 18th inst, at Pottsville, by
the decision of Judge ELwELL, cstab.
fishing a basis for the graduation of the
price of labor, which appears to be just
to all parties, viz:
Basis at Port Carbon, s2 per ton for coal.
Miners, wages by day work, p % per week.
outside laborers " 10 90
Contract work to be reduced 10 per
cent. below prices paid under the three
dollar basis of 1869.
Wages TO advance one cent for every
three cents advance in the price of coal
above 1915, and to decline at the same
rate when the price is below that sum
down to 81 %.

Democratic Convention...Auditor General

Democratic COnventiOn-.-A Auditor General.
The Democratic County Convention
on Monday was pretty well attended,
considering the season. 1t will be OBJ
served that unanimous instructions
were passed in favor of Gen. w. w. II.
DAVIS, of Bucks county, for Auditor
General. The Democracy of Columbia
have done themselves credit in this ac-
tion-credit in bringing forward fit
candidate who was not pressing him
self upon the party, and one who emil
nently deserves preferment. The action
of the county was spontaneous, not the
result Of effort or intrigue, and we trust
the State Convention will be controlled
by similar patriotic motives. DAVIS has
deserved we'll of his country on the bat
tie field as we'll as in the private rela-
tions of life. He is in all respects fit
man as candidate and will prove as
fit as an officer. He was the Democratic
candidate for thesame Office in 1865, and
rs such did energetic work to secure the
triumph of his party-work that was
creditable to him and beneficial to the
party that nominated him. Although
his vote at the election was most re-
spectacle one, he was overwhelmed by
the large Republican majority of that
day. 1t is but justice to faithful and
able man to give him another trial,
when there is hope of success, and when
the merits of the candidate will have
50 much to do with securing victory.

WHEN vast majority of the so.call-
ed Ku.Klux cases are investigated they
prove to be the merest bogus coinage,
issued from that mint of invention, the
brains of needy, ambitious Radical pol
iticians. Every instance of disobedience
to law in the South is labeled another
Ku-Klux outrage, and shipped to the
North and market. None of the ex-
planatory circumstances are given, but
old Sam is decorated with an extra coat
of black paint, in order to, the mere
certainly, impose upon the people of
this section. Not long since, report
was telegraphed from Raleigh, North
Carolina, that band of Ku-Klux ruff.
fans had maltreated some persons In
that vicinity, and that soldiers had ar.
rested several members of the gang.
The truth Of this case is that three
young men, not disguised, visited a
shanty where white women and negro
men were herding together like brutes,
to the scandal of the neighborhood, and
assaulted some of the parties. For this
they were arrested. This was no Ku
Klux outrage. 1t was only duplicate
of the common tale of popular indig.
nation and riot against the concubinage
of black men and white women. New
York, Ohio, Minnesota, and every other
State, no matter how well-behaved, has
furnished examples of similar intoler.
ance of such an association of the two
races, and may do so again, to-day OF
tomorrow. Dozens of such acts have
been chronicled in the North.

Radical State Convention.

This body met at Harrisburg on We'd
nesday, and nominated DIR. DAVID
STANTON, of Beaver county, for Aud
itor General. The Convention was
made up of majority of the adherents
of Gen. CAMERON, and no appeals by
the more moderate of the plundering
crowd was sufficient to induce them to
nominate somebody outside Of the cor
rupt Treasury ring for Auditor General,
Having seized the Treasury last winter
1t was necessary to have tool in that
Office to give them full swing at the
stealings. They already have the Treas
ury in the hands of an agent of the ring,
and if they succeed in the election this
fall they will have another agent of the
ring as Auditor General to settle his
accounts There will then not be the
least check to prevent them from gorg.
ing themselves upon the people'smoney
to their hearts content. Such is Radical.
ism! Personally we know nothing
about the nominee.
Now let the Democracy nominate one
of their best men and victory is surel

WELL SAID. When, after the elec.
tion of Lincoln, Seward boasted in the
Senate that the Mongrel party would
"now take possession of the CITADEL"
Senator Hammond, of South Carolina,
replied as follows:
"The Democratic party surrender the
country without stain upon her hon
or, boundless in her prosperity, incalcu.
liable in her strength. We have kept
the government conservative to the
great purpose of government. We have
placed her and kept her upon the Con-
stitution and that, sir, has been the
cause of your peace and prosperity.

North and West Branch Railroad.

In another column we give correct
copy of the act recently passed to incor-
porate the North and West Branch
Railroad company. 1t will be seen
that Notwithstanding earnest attempts
were made to cripple the bill by amend
ments designed to favor special locali-
ties, it is passed in the form desired by
the people of Columbia county. The
gentlemen named as incorporators are
already taking the initiatiory steps to
have subscription books opened with
the view to the commencement of i'm
mediate operations. Every citizen, es-
pecially those of bloomsbury and 9TH
ers residing along the line OF the pro-
posed route, ought to take deep inter-
est in forwarding this project. The road
is of more interest to the county gener-
ally than any other that has been pro-
posed, as its erection would give COM
plete railroad accommodations to the
people south of the river and also to
the two Fishingcreek vallies, as we'll as
to Bloomsbury and its vicinity. 1t is
hoped the people interested will take
hold of the project in earnest and drive
it through to successful completion with
hearty energy.
