The English aristocracy have had


The English aristocracy have had
another Scare,-a church scare,
which is the most terrible of all. 1t
was rumored that His Grace the
Duke of Northumberland mad de-
liberately and with malice afore-
thought flung himself and his desti
MES into the open arms of the
Church of Rome, the bugbear Of
British spinsters and the terror Of
its yeomanry. Now it appears that
the rumor was without foundation.
The press made it so warm for the
Marquis of Ripon, whom the Times
declared was suffering from q moral
obliquity which entirely uLfitted
him for further political life, that if
the Duke of Northumberland en-
tertained any idea Of doing likewise
he has been frightened out of it.

THE LEGISLATURE REPUBLICAN.
UUShbul11 Sure for L. s.
Senator!

Sufficient returns are received to
indicate that Wisconsin has gone
Republican by 5000 to 10000 ma
Ilority. The Assembly is certainly
largely Republican; the Senate
close and doubtful. On joint ballot
we have a good working majority,
which insmes the election of Re-
publican u. S. Senator.
Reports from Green county
Thompson's home-indicate that it
has good for Magoon by about 500.
Lafayette county gives M. Jag
majority, and elects Campbell (Rep.)
to the State Senate, and some of
the Republican county officers.
Geo. Weatherby, we regret to say,
is beaten 10y small majority, owing
to the treachery of a few calling
themselves Republicans.
Grant county gives Magoon about
900 majority, according to to re-
ports, and has probably elected
three Republican Assemblymen, and
the entire Republican ticket.
OTHER STATES.
Illinois on the State ticket is Re-
publican. SO far us heard from
there is gain of I Democratic
Congressman. Gen. Hurbut has
defeated the sorehead Farnsworth.
Of New York enough is known to
show that the Democrats were tri-
umphant. Governor Dix was de-
feated by S. j. Tilden. The prob
able Democratic majority in New
York is $4,000. The Congressional
delegation from that State will be
largely Democratic. 1t is almost
certain that the Democrats will have
o majority in the Legislature, thus
securing the United States Senator
ship.
Massachusetts, has undergone the
most astonishing change. That old
time banner Republican State has
at last offered laid and comfort" to
the Democracy. Governor Talbot
may have pulled through" but his
Democratic opponent, CASTOR, viii
be close to his heels, if not actually
ahead, in the race for the Governor
ship. General Butler has been
overwhelmingly de+eated. At last
Massachusetts, has thrown that po-
litical nuisance overheard, The re-
action in the State is mainly due to
Butlerism. At the next election
new and better mem win be put
forward. DR.. Aver, the pill man,

upon money. The party can better

Theodore Thomas and Wis Or
chestra.

This world-famous musical organization
appears at the Opera House on Thursday
evening of next week, the 10th inst Too
much cannot. be said in praise of the COM
pany or of the management which has
made it so successful 1t is the largest and
most perfect organization Of the kind
which has ever undertaken concet tour,
either in this country or in Europe, while
their concerts are unequaled by any Of the
so-called Philharmonic concerts given ey-
where. The success and universal appie-
citation with which this organization has
been received have led Mr.. Thomas to in
crease the proportions of the orchestra
during the past year, and bring it to still
greater degree of perfection. This in
crease has resulted naturally from the vast
repertoire, embracing every branch of mu-
sic from the symphony down to the dance
form. Mr.. Thomas does not adhere to one
style of music, his aim is TO pay tribute to
all that is good, whether of the old or new
schools, and thus he has gained the high
and UNIQUE position of being the creator
and conductor of the best and most versa
tile orchestra in the world.
The orchestra insists of sixteen viollns,
led by Mr.. b. Listemann five violas,
four violoncellos, four double BASES, one
harp, one piccolo, two flutes, two oboes,
one corn oanglais, two clarionets, two has
soons, four French horns, two trumpets,

THE BHAsHEn, N. Y. BURGLARY
Probable Arrest of the brandon
Jewelry Thieves.

Our readers will remember, says the
Ogdensburg Journal that on the night of
Friday, March Goth, the station house of
the Ogdensburg and Lake Champlain rail-
road company, at Brasher depot, was brok-
en- open and the safe robbed of $647. OF
this sum S247 belonged to the railroad COM
pany, 5000 to the express company and
$500 to priyae parties. Last week four
persons suspected with having participated
in this robbery were arrested and brought
TO Oglensburg and locked up. On Satur-
day an examination before Elijah White,
justice of the peace, twas commenced 1t
was continued Monday afternoon. The
parties arrested are Horace G. Salisbury,
who resides at Brush Mills, Charles Ford,
brother-in-law of Salisbury, Thomas III.
Peters of the same place and one Myers.
The arrests were made on information
communicated by. Peters, who s ems TO
have labored with good deal of determi-
nation and energy for some time before he
could get the authorities to listen to his
statements. In the disclosures thus far
made, the officers have been put upon
track which needs only to be well followed
to capture as precious gang of scoundrels
as were ever banded for plumber, and whose
operations have ranged from Ogdensburg
to New Hampshire line, and extended
through long term Of years. From what
we have heard it is certain that one or
more Of the gang were conconed in the
robbery of n. p. Woolley's safe, here. in
May, 1869, in the various burglaries that
have taken place along the line of the Os-
densburg IS Lake Champain railroad, in
Canada near the lines, and in several over
in Vermont one at Brandon in which
5000 worth of jewelry were stolen
Salisbury and Peters have been commit
ted TO Jail to await trial, and Ford admit
ted to bail in the sum of $500.

The Strangcst Ot Accidents ana
the Most singular OF Ncdi-
cal cases

One of the strangest of accidents that
ever befel a human being or that puzzled
the brains of the most experienced of ply
sicians occurred in Rutland on Tuesday
night last. Mr.. Charles Backus, an en-
ploye at the Central Vermont car shops,
who lives at the Farmers Hotel, on pre-
pairing to retire on the night named and
while relieving himself OF his pantaloons,
tell backward into chair, in which was
set, bottom side up, glass tumbler, of the
small size generally known as q 'whiskey
glass" Mr. Backus is quite heavy man,
whose weight is about 2l0 pounds, and in
his fall struck the glass squarely with his
lower bowel, or Tectam, and with such
force as to drive the tumbler so far inside
as to prevent its being dislodged from its
very singular and painful position. Vain
endeavors were made by the sufferer him
self to remove the tumbler by the use of Il
pair of pincers, in which he broke off an
inch or two of the rim. DR.. George NJ.
Fox was then called and after various
means had been tried a council of doctors
was called to attend the case ut eight
O'Clock Wednesday morning. At that hour
he walked from his boarding place to DR..
Goldsmith's Office in the Baxter bank build
ing where Drs. Fox, Goldsmith, and Pond
were in consultation together. and
several theories were advanced as
means of removing the glass,
all however agreeing in the fact that the
case was something never before heard of
by them. Every endeavor to move the
glass caused great pain TO the sufferer and
much loss of blood. 1t WIS finally agreed
upon that it must be turned from
its original position, which was accordingly
done and the glass at last taken out

solicitor Banticld has also made an addi-
tional statement to the committee, defend
ing his official acts in the matter of the
Sauborn contracts against reflections upon
him by Secretary Richardson and Assistant
Secretary Sawyer. The point of Bantield's
statement was that his duties in regard to
the Sanborn contracts were not original but
merely advisory that he was not RESPONSE
bic for initiating the system, but that he
was willing TO share with other officials of
the department the responsibility of having
concurrcd in it. The system had been mi

Richardson.
He stated that with the exception of is
suing secret service credentials to Green &

he had written or signed no paper and done
no act connected with Sanborns contracts
from beginning to end, except by direction
of the secretary or assistant secretary.
He stated that some time before the pas
sage of the act of 1872 in relation to con
tracts of this character special appeal was
made by Mr. Kelley of New York, and
Sawyer, then senator, now assistant secre-
tary of the treasury. to give to the act of

it would bear, for the purpose of making

An accident occurred on the Rensselaer,
and Saratoga railroad Tuesday afternoon,
near Ballston. Just after leaving the sta
ton the engine of the train due here at
1;45 o'clock ran off the track by reason of
misplaced switch, and taking milk car
with it fell partly down an embankment.
Great commotion among the passengers
was caused but fortunately the train was
running very slowly, and no one was in
jured. Another engine was procured and
the train was again in motion, after a delay
of half an hour. The engine that ran off
the track was raised during the after
noon, and was found to be only slightly
damaged.
