HARRISBURG daily papers, in their
report Of the proceedings Of the Stale
Senate, stated that citizens OF this coun
ty, through Senator Crawford. had petit
toned the Legislature to repeal the law
prohibiting the sale of liquor Oh election
days. The reporters Of said papers made
quite a mistake. No such petitions had
been sent from this county. Senator
Crawford did not present a petition or
petitions of such a character. He did,
however, present a petition from citizens
Of this county asking for a supplement to
the act preventing the sale of liquor on
election days, and asking that all liquor
places be closed twenty-four hours in
stead of twelve, as the law now requires
them to be.

AT a temperance meeting in Washing
ton the other evening Senator Ferry, Of
Michigan, related an incident in his own
personal experience, where he attended a
fashionable reception in company with a
lady. After being beautifully helped to
the viands of the table she requested
champagne. Two glasses were poured
out by the waiter, and the speaker was
asked to join his companion in the spark
ling cup. But in this trying moment he
had the strength to utter the saving words

FIRE.-The dwelling house and con
tents and store room and contents OF
Nelson Vandyke, at Centre, a place mid
way between this place and Thompson
town, on the pike, was destroyed by fire
Gu last Thursday morning, about three
o'clock. About that hour Mr.. Vandyke
went up stairs to attend to the wants OF
a sick child. lie was mortified on reach
ing the landing Of the second floor to find
the ceiling above and the attic floor all
ablaze. Three children, who were sleep
ing on the attic. were scarcely gotten out
when the floor fell. The whole house
waa soon enveloped in flames. and burned
to the ground. 1t is believed that fire
got on to the attic through a defective
fue. The fues in the building were con,
structed of title stuff" in sections that
were set one IN top of the other. Loss
$500. No insurance.
Since the above was put in type we
learn that Mr.. Vaudyke succeeded ii
saving most of his store goods.

together in the suburbs of the
Arizona capital, and lighting
full pipes, were soon wandering

the land where "The Law Of

then, swathed in one blanket, we
slept until the morning.

A Great Event in Arizona.

to Fort Whipple to witness the
erection of the first telegraph pole
in Arizona. When we arrived we
found a large crowd already as
sembled, which was constantly
increasing with arrivals of citi-
zens from town and soldiers from
the post. The ladies from the
post made gay the scene with
their presence. The 23d U. s. In
fantry were on hand in full uni
form, adding the charms Of mu.
sic to the already joyful scene.
AT 10 O'Clock, everything being
in readiness Mrs. Gen. Crook
broke the ground for the first tel
egraph line in A rizona, Mrs. Gen.
Dana at the same time breaking
the christening bottle of wine.
and work was commenced on the
Arizona Telegraph. In a few
minutes the working party under
the supervision Of Lieut.. +. T.
Trout and Mr.. Wisdom had up
the three first poles and the wires
stretched upon them, when three
cheers were given for the tele-
graph. Mr.. Marion being called
for, then made a few remarks APP
prOpriate to the occasion. Gen.
Crook was then called for, and
made his usual excuse and called
upon Capt. Nickers0n to do the
talking Capt. Nickerson came
forward, and after explaining that
Gen. Crook did the work and ex-
pected him to do the talking,
made eloquent and appropriate
remarks:
"The force under command of
Gen. Crook, having soothed the
savage breast of the Apache, is
now building roads through hi
therto unknown sections; and to-
day they are here for the purpose
of erecting the first telegraph pole
in Arizona. Truly our army to-
day is an army of peace, a2d the

With reference to the payment for compul-
sorry eXjra.W0rk in crop jime, it was questioned
in the Commission, if the rate proposed is not
pretty low. But as an increase Of that rate
could be but triAjng, while the bare mention of
an increase could easily cause a limitation
in the distribution Of cxtra-provisions during
the work on those busy days, and IS moreover
that sort of work is to a very great extent com
pensated according to the quantity (extra-pay
for every copper Of liquor boiled beyond a GER
tain number) so that for so far the conditions
will be free, it is found best to retain the Gus

The wages for Saturday work are here pro-
posed to be fixed to respectively %, Is and 10
cents instead of 20, l3 and Z cents in the Re
gulations. TO let the wages be entirely free,
as was proposed by a Member (Sarauw,) ap-
peared to the Majority to be inconsistent with
fixed days-wages for the other weekdays for,
a high days pay on Saturday could cover over
payments for the other days. Why the paw
on Saturdays should be higher than for an or
binary working day, is very naturally to be
accounted for by the fact. that that portion of
the compensation for labour which consists in
free house and free use of a provision ground
can only be said to be given in regard to work
done on the five ordinary working days, and
the strange estate on which a labOurer works
on Saturdays defrayS no portion of that COM
pensatlOn, therefore that estate ought to give a
corresponding higher amount in money wages.
1t has hitherto been the habit to give for Satur-
day work, besides the prescribed money wages,
a portion of bread, to the worth of 8 cents, and
a portion of rum but as it is here proposed that

The community at large will be
panied to learn of the death of Con-
ductor A. A. Latham, of the G.. T. r.
We understand that he was at church
on Sunday last, and in his usual health
up to late hour, when he was taken
suddenly with vomiting and ruptured
a blood-vessel in the head in conse-
quence. He expired at his home in
Yarmouth, Me. lie was a model con
duttor, with few, if any, enemies. We
noticed an order issued to the employ
ees, for as many of them as could, to
attend the funeral obsequies.
A fireman named Phearson fell
from the top of an engine tender to
the ground, while taking water at Mi
Ian Water Station, on Tuesday last,
striking upon his head. He was pick
ed up insensible having sustained, it is
feared, some internal injuries. Mr.
Charles Loring, an engineman on the
Maine Central Railroad, and former.
ly of this road, met with like acct,
dent recently, at New Gloucester,
Me-, from which he has not yet recov-
cred. In both instances ice was the
cause.
With all the iron-trying weather
which we have experienced this sea-
son, the railroad boys say they have
not discovered a broken rail on the
Eastern Division.
There are several fatal cases of scar.
let fever reported at Berlin Falls and
vicinity. Much sickness prevails here
in the way of colds and a few cases
of typhoid and lung fevers.
