THE ISSUE IN PENNSYLVANIA.

The Grant ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS have named for
the Governorship of the Keystone State Gen.
John F. Hartranft. Pennsylvania Democrats shave
named ex Senator Chas. X. Buckalew. Republic
cans received the first nomination with out
spoken disgust and almost universal denunci-
alton. Fair minded men of all parties receive
the second as one creditable to the men who
make it, and to the Commonwealth.
The statement of the case is the argument
of the campaign. If indeed the Republican
party, under the sordid personal dictation OF
Gen. Grant, has fallen so low as to be merely
the tool for putting c0nfessedly unworthy
men in high office, then the best Repuo-
licans will shed no tears over inevitable
Republican defeat If indeed the Democratic
party means to accept the wise words OF Its
candidate, which its delegates at Reading,
yesterday, cheered to the echo, and
unite, without reference to party lines,
with all who honestly seek reform, then
it has fairly won the right to leader
ship in Pennsylvania; and Liberal Repubh-
cans. recognizing in its candidate (as the
whole Country does) gentleman of ample
experience, high ability, and stainless integrity,
will cordially aid in bearing him to assured
victory.
We observe that sanguine Republicans are
calling in alaEp for the withdrawal Of Gen.
Hartranft and the nomination of new and
at least decently fit candidate in his stead.
They waste their breath. 1t is not In the
logic of the situation that Gen. Hartranft
should withdraw. Gen. Grant is about
to be nominated as the national candidate
of the same party; and when Gen. Grant runs
there is no reason why Gen. Hartranft should
not. Senator Buckalew has counseled the
only practicable way of defeating Gen.
Grant and it is fit on many
grounds that he should have the
honor of defeating Gen. Grants serving
man in Pennsylvania. With union and good
faith among the friends of reform, his victory
is secure.

Congress is not yet decided on the question
of adjournment. In the Senate there has
always been determination to linger, and
now, of course, somebody will try to answer
Mr. Summers terrible speech of yesterday, and
so will ask for more time. The House has
received the Tax and Tariff bill, which was
promptly sent to a Conference Committee, that
the disagreements Of the two Houses might be
barmonized. There is now every probability
that the differences will be adjusted and that
the bill will become law, with some cOnsid-
cradle notifications. The House nOn-cOncurred
in nearly all of the Senate amendments. The
Senate has substituted an entirely new free
list for that provided by the House, and has
struck out many items from the list of arti-
cles on which the reduction of ten per cent
duty was proposed Several new sections were
added to the bill, and many other radical
changes were made by the Senate. A day or
two must elapse before the whole scheme can
be perfected.

MR. pEYDLEToY-rHE oIHcINNAu TICKET

MR.. PENDLETON-THE CLNCLNNA1I 1IChEI.
Now and then it seems worth while to track
down one out of the scores of reckless falsiti-
cations wherewith the Opposition press teens.
OF late the game has been to quote every
prominent Democratic statesman, who had
been supposed friendly to the Cincinnati
ticket. as Indignantly repudiating it,
and demanding straight Democratic nomi-
inatiops at Baltimore. The latest to suf-
fer from this sort of Misrepresentation
is Geo. H. Pendleton, who was said, IN me
Philadelphia Age dispatches, to have pro.
nounced the Cincinnati ticket only capable OF
throwing the election into the House, and to
have declared without reserve in favor OF
keeping up tho old eight and nomi-
mating a straight ticket of their own

There was much well-founded alarm, last
Winter, at the prospect of a water famine in
this city. The bill depriving the city authOri-
ties of the right to draw from the water sup
plies of Putnam and Westchester Counties
narrowly escaped passage by the Legislature,
and, if enacted, would have certainly carried
CONSERVATION far and wide. But we were
spared the infection, and though there is not
enough water to justify lavish use, there is
plenty for the Summers supply, despite the
dry Winter and Spring.

Some notes on the gigantic farming of
Southern California are printed in THE
TRIBUNE, to-day, from the pen of an accom-

have been read with interest. 1t is something

but this, and other marvellous things, are
truthfully described by our correspondent

After all the turmoil and aCrimony which
have been created by the debate on the affairs
of the Methodist Book Concern, almost every
body was surprised yesterday that the matter
should be so summarily disposed of. The
report of the Committee, synopsis of which
was printed in THE TRIBUNE yesterday, was
unanimously adopted, without debate. The
Conference then proceeded to ballot for
the Managing Agents of the Book
Concern and elected Mr. j. K. Phillips and
the Rev. s. Nelson. This, probably, is the
best attainable result of the long and exhaust
ing struggle over the management of the Con-
cern and will calm the irritation which has
been engendered during the long discussion
and investigation. The great denomination
most directly interested has received a severe
and wholesome lesson. 1t owes it to itself, as
well as to the general public, that common
business shrewdness and good management
shall make a repetition of this scandal impOs-
sible,

Attempts at suicide may be expensive; and moth
ing can be more ridiculous than for man to pay tho
bill out of his own pocket for cutting his own throat
This happened to an unfortunate fellow lately at
Iowa City. He, TO make matters sure, not only
severed his windpipe, but slashed the arteries OF
his wrists. Then three doctors took him in hand
and stitched him up, and insisted upon his living;
and so live he did to receive from the high-eost
doctors bill of $500. He said that he would Mt pay
it, but the sawbones brought an action against him.
and the judge and jury said that pay he must. Tho
Door man will probably refrain from such luxuries

Gen. Howard, after a careful examination of
the Apache question, has come to the con-
clusion that Gen. Crooks policy-not Vincent
COlyer's-is the only one for the paciication
of the Territory of Arizona. Considerable I'M
friendly criticism was evoked by Gen. How
ards avOwed determination to quiet the In
dams by moral suasion, if he could; but now
that he is convinced that the Apaches are
robbers and murderers, who must be rigor-
Ously punished, his deliberate judgment will
be everywhere approved.

Never weary in ill-doing, Gen. Butler ana
his band of superserviceables rallied all their
cohorts in the House, yesterday, in an attempt
to pass the Force bill. 1t was understood to
be "party" measure for the denomination
lists ; it was really bill to give the President
power to transfer the machinery OF elecuons
from local jurisdiction to the hands OF United
States Marshals. But the plot failed, the Dill
receiving only 1O2 Yeas to 90 Nays two
thirds vote being necessary Perhaps tne
iunta will eventually conclude that this Dill
cannot be passed.

Some attempt is to be made at the scientific
cleaning of the streets by the Police Depart
ment, under the provisions of the new law re-
lating to that subject. The public generally
will be relieved to learn that the contract
system has been entirely avoided and that the
work is to be done under the charge of a city
officer with city employees and machinery; The
details of the work are not yet determined
on, but there is some talk of buying out the
property used by Mr.. Brown, late street-clean-
ing contractor. There can be no objection to
this provided the bargain is a prudent and
fair One The city is under no obligations to
take the ex-cOntractOr's tools because he has
lost his profitable job. Mr.. Brown cannot be
said to be that quiet gentleman celebrated by
Truthful James," for that Mr.. Brown, "On
"several occasions, had cleaned out the town.
which our Mr.. Brown has not even once done.

Senator Schurz appropriately finished the
long debate on the French Arms Sales yester-
day by Analysing the report and showing the
fallacy of the conclusions of the Committee.
The futile attempts of the apologists of the
Administration to cover this scandalOus trans
action have been frequently exposed, but Mr..
Schurz shows the absurdity of the views
of the Committee on international law,
and, by the process of their own reasoning,
proves that we have violated law and comfy
for the sake of selling arms, the receipts for
which would be just ten cents per head to
the inhabitants of the United States.

Stagnation prevails in many branches OF
local mechanical trade, owing to the continu-
alton of the "strikes." Heretofore, these
demonstrations have been chiefly confined 10
workers in wood, but the easy victory OF the
earlier "strikers" has emboldened others to
follow. And now uneasiness is reported
among the men employed in retail shops,
bakeries, pastry-cook shops, etc: 1t is difficult
for an outsider to form an impartial and just
opinion as to the rights of the adverse parties
to this dispute; but it is evident that the en-
ployGs have the upper hand now; how it will
be by and by is another question.

Serious Accident.

On the morning Of the 18th inst,
whilst Charles B. Wagner. wife and
son, were driving in double seated
express from their res dence 20 town,
and whilst coming bliskly up the steep
hill Just in front Of their home, his son
raised the whip, when the
horses sprang forward, summersaultIng
Col. Waggener, wife aud tack seat out
at the rear end OF the express. The
Colonel not making his evoIutions COM
plet-, fell with the whole weight o his
body on his left shoulder, dislocsting
the arm at the shoulderjoint and break
ing the bone OF the left arm at its
neck. The Coloners wife being the
more active, made her sfmmersaut
mosa omplete and fell rather broad
uponT&<f back, and whilst bruised con.
siderable no bones were broken or dis
located. Drs Barbee and Neale, after
getting the Colonel under the influece
of chlrrofDrm, succeed in reducing the
head Of the arm bone to its original
place and adjusting thereto the other
fractured portion. The report as we 60
to press, is, that Colonel Wagner and

hope that the Colonel will be able to

FINANCE AND TRADE.
Baltimore Cattle MARKET.

THURSDAY, June ~.
BEEF CATTLE-This week the
market has been very heavy and dull,
aud shows q decline of 2@icpe pound,
the latter being Oh the common grades.
while on those Of better quality the
concession was not so marked. There
was little or no difference in the quality
OF the offerings as compared with last
week, but the receipts show consid-
cradle increase over those of our last
report, and Notwithstanding number
of Eastern buyers were on the ground,
prices gave way as above indicated, and
at the cIo-e several car loads were lett
over, or may be sid after the market
to 20 East. The quotations ranged at
81 O0@7 81 per hundred pounds, very
few selling at the outside price. Prices
to-day for beet cattle ranged as follows:
Best beeves, Sc 759737; that generally
rated first quality, S. 25@6 IS; me-
dunn or good fair quality, "a 5O@5 %;
ordinary thin steers, oxen and cows,
81 O0@4 81; inferior and lowest grades
OF cattle, 50 00-general average OF
the market to-day, S. SD; extreme
range of prices, 81 OO97 37!. Most OF
the sales were from s. % to S. % per
hundrrd pounds OF the receipts 9O6
head came from Ohio, SO from Penn
sylvania, 337 from West Virginia, and
&c from Virginis-total receipts for the
week, l4lS head, against 93S last week,
and l25l head same time last year
Of the offerings 735 head were taken
by Baltimore butchers, 81 head sold to
Washington butchers, 80 to country
dealers, and 229 to spectators for East
ern markets. Total sales for the week
1867 head, against S9S last week, and
1864 head same time last year.
SHEEP AND LAMBS-We have
to record again this week another
heavy list OF arrivals of sheep, under
the effect of which prices have given
way &c per pound, though Philadelphia
and New York deealrs have taken some
1000 head from the market. The trade
has been very dull under the large
number OF receipts and expected ar
rivals, and closes weak at 496 cents
per pound gross, few selling at the lat,
ter figure. Lambs We quote in fair de.
mand at 50 0O@4e0 per head, as to
size and quality. Receipts this week
$40 head, against 5245 last week, and
2O92 head same time last year.
HOGS-There has been quite helvy
run of hogs on the market this week
largely in excess Of last week g arrivals
and to The limited number on the mar
ket last week may be attributed the
fact that there is no decline to note as
incident to the heavy arrivals now re-
corded. 1t is true that large, fat hogs
are dull OF sale, being unsuited to the
season, but there is quite good demand
Tor light, smooth hogs. We quote at
IS 75@G %, the larger part OF tie sales
being of good hogs, which range at and
above Sc per 100 pounds net few bring
ing our highest quotations. Receipts
this week 1852 head against SOL last
week, and 147S head same time last

Thursday, when President William
o. Hughart, SO long the head Of that
road, resigned the position. and William
Keyser, of Baltimore, second Vice

Under the severe labors which Mr.
Hughart has undergone in the compile.
ton OF this road his health has suffered
considerably. He goes to Tennessee,
it is understood, in connection with
railroad enterprise there, not involving,
however, such laborious exertlon as
the bringing Of the Connellsville road
through it's difficulties has in the past
i'm posed. The trade of the Pittsburgh
Washington and Baltimore road is
now so. steadily increasing, and its pros.

branch road this fall, on which the track
is now being laid, will, of course, add
largely to the business Of this road.

Found Dead.

We learn that a woman was found
dead at Willow Branch, about two miles
below the mouth of the Kanawha, in
CIendinen township, this county, on
Tuesday. When found she had her hands
tied behind her and handkerchief
tied over her mouth. She had evidently
been the victim of a murderers hand,
and suspicion, we understand, is
strongly directed to acouple of women
(sisters) of easy virtue" who reside in
that township, as being the perpetra-
tors OF the horrible crime. We do not
know upon what grounds suspicion is
thus cast upon them, and tor that
reason do not give the names Of the
suspicioned parties. The woman was
evidently murdered, and it is the duty
of our authorities to ferret out the guilty
ones, and il possible, bring them to trial.
The woman found belonged to Galllpolis,
and her remains were taken to that city
by officer Langley. An inquest was
held over the dead body, but we have
not heard the verdict of the jury.-F
