must expect in some way to reimburse himself
for his expense and trouble. He cannot DO
this honestly from his salary as legislator.
By law, no member of the General Assembly
is entitled to more than six hundred dollars
per annum, in addition to mileage, which in
no case would exceed seven hundred dollars
and yet we hear Of men who are willing to

The Jews and Jerusalem.
The Jewish Times. published in New
York, mentions the return to America Of
Prof Gratz and Messrs. Levy, Potzin and
Gottschalk, from Palestine. Their report on
the condition of the Jews in Palestine is set
down by the Times as ian additional argument
against the folly of encouraging the emigra-
tion of the Jews to country which has no
other claim than that of venerable monu-
ment of the past" There are now, it appears,
about 10000 Jews living in Palestine, and
"their average state of culture is much below
that of their Acknowledgements in Europe.
They have no visible means Of support, spend
their time in idleness, praying and Talmud
reading and foolish pining and signing on
the ruins of the temple, eking out misera-
BILE existence by the charity of the Jews in
Europe, America and Australia" Curiously
enough, the memorial of their visit by Prof.
Gratz and his companions also suggests "the
general elimination from all Jewish prayer
books of the portions referring to the hopes OF
Israel in the restitution of the Holy Land to
the possession of Israel, and the rebuilding of
the Temple by Divine Providence" The
Times considers it mot only folly but a
crime to feed the sickly imagination Of poor,
ignorant people by the hallucination, as if one
spot on earth had greater value in the eyes
Of God, and prayers sent up to heaven from
a certain locality find sooner a hearing from
the throne divine"

A Man Blown to Atoms with Nitro
GIycerine.

From the Titusville Herald of yes
terday we learn that another terrible
nitro -glycerine explosion took place
near Rouseville on Monday morning
at six minutes after eleven o'clock, by
which Mr.. VIM. II. Payne, torpedo
agent at that place, was instantly killed
and blown into diminutive fragments.
Mr.. Payne was partner of Mr..
James Sanders, the agent for Roberts
torpedoes, and the firm kept a maya
zine on the Tolls farm, about one mile
distant from Rouseville, where is con-
stantly kept on hand a large amount
Of the explosive and dangerous mate.
rial in cans.
Monday morning Mr.. Payne went to
the magazine with a buck board and
double team, for the purpose of pro-
curing some nitro -glycerine and tor
pedo to be used in Mr.. N. j. Depning's
well, ON the John Buchanan farm,
about half a mile to the west. He had
gone about two-thirds of the distance,
and had reached point ON the road
about thirty rods east of the Strong
well, when the can exploded. Mr..
Payne's body was simultaneously scat
tered over an area of about twelve
acres, the blackboard was literally torn
into splinters, but strange to say the
horses were not killed, but ran away
badly singed and wounded in the
launches. The explosion was distinct
ly heard four miles off. The hill
trembled to its very centre, and every
building in Rouseville was shaken
to its foundation. A man named
William McCandless was working on
the road few feet from where the ex
plosion took place and had gore of
five minutes previously to get drink
of water. He was on his way back
when he heard the explosion, and saw
the horses rushing down the hill. Up
on approaching to the spot, he fully
realized the terrible situation and thu
miraculous escape he had made. A
large crowd of persons from the sur
rounding wells, and adjacent houses
soon made their appearance, and thu
bushes were searched far and near fo
the remains of unfortunate man
What was found would not fill half {
bushel measure.

On Thursday last John Horn, of
Franklin, seventeen years old, brake
man on the Allegheny Valley Rail
road by his wonderful presence of
mind saved the life of child. In
less than ten minutes after perform
iEg this brave act young Horn him
self narrowly escaped the fate he had
just rescued the child from, suffering
loss Of his left arm. AS switch en-
gine was approaching the Franklin
station, John, who was riding on the
pilot of the engine, discovered three
year old child sitting on the track. 1t
was too late to stop the engine, and
unless something was done the little
one must be crushed beneath the pom
derous wheels of the locomotive.
Quick as thought young Horn let him
self down upon the extreme point of
the cow-catcher, placed his foot in
position, and, as soon as he came with
in reaching distance, kicked the child
from the track down a slight embank-
ment, thus saving it from a horrible
death. In about five minutes after
this the brave boy met with an acci-
dent which would have cost him his
life but for his GOODNESS. While the
engine was backing down the track
to siding John stood upon the
bumper of the tender, supporting him.

slight rod of iron. Suddenly the
standard give way from its fastenings
and Horn was thrown in the middle of
the track, where he would have been
torn to shreds. Quick as lightning he
rolled himself to the outside of the
rails, but did not succeed in clearing
his whole body. His left arm was
caught between the fange of the truck
and the ties and every bone in it
crushed. He was picked up, and sur
gical aid called. He had to suffer
amputation just below the shoulder.
At our last advices he was getting
along finely. The Railroad Company
should see that young Horn gets a
position which will support him life
time. 1t is rare that such brave boys

On Tuesday last, party of our

town on fishing and hunting excur-
sion to the islands above and below
Tionesta, in the Allegheny River. At
the latter place they were met by Mr..
Goodrich of Tidioute, and that
renowned hunter, trapper and fisher
man, Major Goodman, of old Forost

was under charge of the Major, and
consisted of an ample supply of eatables
and drinkables, among the latter be-
ing liberal supply of ice water

ing, but yet very desirable these warm
days. The party hunted over all the
islands for some distance above and
below Tionesta, drifting from one to
another in boat under the guidance
of the Majer, who not only thorough
ly understands the art of hunting, but
is something Of a sailor. The results
of the expedition was a large inroad

been running Democratic paper and
supporting Greeley.
We are led to remark the above by
scanning two or three of our Demo-
cratic exchanges, and noticing their
sublime Indifference to truth. When
the Democrats and Liberal Republi-
cans say "Anything TO beat Grant,"
they do not make any reservation,
mental or or otherwise. Truth, puri-
ty and patriotism are swallowed up in
this great desire, and if Thomas Pep
per don't lose his laurels when some Of
these Democatic editors kick the
bucket, then we have not the spirit of
prophecy.
For instance: They say that the
present administration is stealing the
money Of the government and that
the poor men are groaning under the
taxec imposed upon them that the rich
men may take their ease. The truth
is the administration is, and has been
steadily decreasing the national debt,
reducing taxation and rendering
more honest account of moneys receiv-
ed and expended than any Democratic
administration that ever existed; and
any man who is willing to work, can
support a family and save from one.
third to one-half his earnings.
They say that the present admins
traitor controls the ballot boxes by
military rule. The truth is that the
Government was obliged to protect the
colored voters from intimidation and
perhaps death by the Ku Klux, be-
cause the civil authorities either could
not or would not suppress the infamous
outrages of these Democratic assassins.
1t is gravely asserted by these daring
falsifers that President Grant trades his
Offices for presents and other gains.
The truth is that Gen. Grant has not
received present to the value of any
thing from any person or persons since
his nomination for the Presidency.
The Long Branch Cottage about which
such furore was created was built
from the finances Of the President
himself, and no one else contributed
the value of carpet tack toward it.
The persons making these charges
have been challenged to prove them,
and have failed to do SO. 1t can't be
did. 1t never happened.
Grant is accused by these editors of
appointing forty-six of his relatives to
Government offices. He has appoint
ed nine, and that's nearer than they
have come to the truth in any of their
other statements. Out of these nine
relatives, not one has proved dishonest
or unfaithful in Office.
They accuse Hartranft of compiled
ty i'll the Evans transactions, when
the head and front of the Greeley
Democracy of Pennsylvania, Hon. w.
A. Wallace, being one of n committee
TO examine and report in the matter,
declared Mr.. Hartranft's skirts clear
and his record pure.
These inaccuracies might be corrected
from now until election time, and the
corrections proven by men whose
word no one could doubt, and yet
these Democratic editors would reite-
rate the same old falsehoods into the
ears Of the voters until after the con-
fiict was over. But they won't fool any
intelligent voters.
