CAUGHT.--It has been no secret for
long time, that Mr.. Thomas Il
MetBgar, worthy passenger conductor
of the p. & 4. r. 4, was the victim oi
domestic infelicity; that he suspected
his wife of improperly receiving the
visits of men during his absence, and
the general impression was that there
was some groundwork for these suspic.
ions, especially by those who remembered
a circumstance of bygouo days. Once
upon time a detective named AL
Horrell was caught there at an unseas-
onablc hour by the indignant husband
and tried to use sluug shot, but Mr.
Mctsgar wrestcd it from him and gave
him a rap with it which caused HorrelI
to carry the mark for many day.
That was forgiven. How much more
probably few will know.
About month ago Mr.. Metzgar
after paying some heavy bills contracted
by his wife, published notice warning
merchants that be would pay none con.
tracted after that date. Since that time
he applied for divorce, and subpoena
was awarded and the case is pending
The complaint charges his wife with
adultery and the first person named i:
Charles Joachim, painter, aged about
%.
Mrs. Mctzgar and hired girl occupy
the house, which is a comfortable dwell
ing on Eighteenth street, near Peach
MIR. Metzgar boarding elsewhere while
in the city. That Joachim has been III
the habit Of visiting there often, seemed
to be well known and he was warned
respectfully to stay away. On Saturday
when Metzgar should have gone to En-.
porium with his train, he quietly
changed off with another conductor;kcpt
out OF sight and went to the vicinity of
his house last night to see if any visitors
came. He espied man on ali fours
pass an alley way but the fellow diSap
peared before he could get another view
and after waiting awhile, he went into
the house aud instituted search
There was nobody to be found, though
every nook and corner was looked into
aud during this time he was aided BY
the jeers of his spouse who denied any
one had been there and made fun of the
searching. Finally he was going out
baffled, when Mr.. Dieffenbach, neigh
Dor, shouted out; "There he is Tom, or
top Of the porch" and there he was
hatlcss and coatless as he had emerged
from an upper window, waiting Tor thc
hunt to cool so that he could get down
Mctzgar ordered him down Under ;
threat that he would shoot him if he
didn't, and like SCOTS coon, the young
man came down by going back though
the window. 1t was Mr.. Charlie,
Joachim, and just as he got to the from
door where Mr.. Metzgar awaited him
he applied very opprobrious epithct t
the latter and the next instant was lyine
on his back from the effects OF Mir
Mctzgar's fist. There was a brief melee
in which Mrs NJ. joined, against heI
husband, but the upshot was that Mr.
NJ colared Joachim, took him to thu
police station and had him locked up il
readiness for maeisterial interview to
day.--Efie Dispotch.

MOTH IN CARPETs.-One can never
~ quito sure that his carpets are not be-
hg consumed by moths, except for a
flew weeks after having taken them up
and thoroughly cleaned, unless some
thing is used to prevent their growth or
! destroy them. This often necessitates
the taking up and cleaning Of carpet
Iat otherwise would not need the reno
Jon. With an ingram or Lowell,
5 needless labor may be saved by lay
down a damp cloth, and over it
ughly rubbing the edges with a
lat iron; this will kill the moths,
- lave accumulated. But with ta-
pestry, Brussels or velvet the ironing is
not effectual; besides, it Injuries the car
pet. Much hard work can be saved,
however, by removing the tacks, one
side at a time, rolling back, and exam
lining the edges. If there are any
moths they must be brushed off aud
burned; and to effectually destroy the
life of all deposits, the edges of the car
pet must be ircned, as before stated, but
on the wrong side. The edge of the
carpet-llning should be thoroughly
looked to, and the exposed edge of the
floor washed, and while damp sprinkle
. with salt. If the carpet is to be folded
under in any place sprinkle salt between
the folds, and see that the aoor iswell
covered with salt for an inch or two un-
der the edge of the carpet all around
If salt were always put under carpet be-
fore tacking them down moths would
have but slight chance to trouble them.

A GooD ORGANIZATIoN.-It is
gratifying to learn that this quarter of
the State is to have the advantage of
an agricultural organization, which will
give this and neighborlng counties all
the benefit usually derived from State
Agricultural Society. A number of
prominent and wealthy gentlemen have
obtained a charter for "The North :
western Pennsylvania Fair Association"
Hon. VIM. L. Scott, of Erie, is Presi-
dent, and o. B. Grant, Esq, Of Elk, is
one of the Vice Presidents. Tie So
Siety offers the sum of $4,000 in pre-
miulas, and the first Annual Fair will
commence September 18th, and con-
tinue four days. 1t should be the
proud duty of every enterprising agri-
culturist, horticulturist, manufacturer
and stock grower in Western Pennsyl-
vania to aid in making the Association
complete success. The Premium
List will appear in our paper next week.
Hon. A. G.. Curtin will deliver the ad.

WEST TENNESSEE7S STRONGEST
MAN FOR GOVERNOR.

Under this heading, the Columbia
Herald and Mail of last week strongly
urged the claims of Mai. w. ]. Sykes
as the best man that West Tennessee
could put forward as her candidate for
Governor. But the Majors ambition
lies In the direction of railroad or man
ufacturing enterprises, calculated to
develop the States material resources,
rather than Of political preferment.
lie writes, in Il note to the editor of
this paper: Under no circumstances
would l be willing to accept a nOm-
ination for any Office; the article in
the Herald and hail was written
W thout any intimation to me that 1t
would be done. l am very anxious for
the success of the Democratic party
upon a sound and honest platform.
Oar danger is that the twenty-cents
tax men viii attempt to divide the con-
vcution. The Democratic party cam
not afford TO ignore the question. We
should select able delegates from each
county to our State Convention, and
then we should run our ablest and most
popular men for Congress and the
Legislature. This is no time for
small politicians. Too much is at
stake. white thus freely to you be-
cause l cannot in any event be a can
dilate for any Office. l am for cOncil-
iation and harmony and the election of
first-class men.

UNRELIABLE REPORTS OF CROPS

Business men in cities, as well as
farmers, should be ON their guard and
not place much reliance on statements
which come from any so-called Crop
Reporter" whetherpublished in Wash
ington, Indianapolis or elsewhere. We
have reason to believe that the tele-
graph is disseminating to the press
daily not little erroneous information
in regard to the fall of rain, weather,
harvests and crops, perhaps for the
benefit of interested parties. The rain
is telegraphed to the press in this city
as being lone inch and ffty-nine hun
dredths in the Mississippi, Missouri and
Ohiovalleys" last week as coming from
the National Crop Reporter. In
the week reported there was a good
rain within three miles of Nashville
and not a drop in this city; and no man
in Davidson county can say, and no
truthful man will attempt to say, what
was the average fall of rain in the week
last past. 1t is a glaring humbug for
any paper calling itself National
Crop Reporter" to assume to give the
average rainfall over several States in
any week. If the publishers had twen-
ty rain-gauges well distributed, watch
ed and managed in the countyin which
their paper is located, a fair
average of the rainfall in that
county might be obtained; bat
no such advantages exist; and where one
guesses to find his ground work of
facts, he is obviously subjected to great
temptations TO guess and report
through the telegraph wires in way
to benefit spectators in grain, flour,
cotton or other staples. Can there be
a more ridiculous waste of time, unless
paid by some unknown parties, than
for man to telegraph that the yield
of hay in the Northwest is a decrease
of ten per cent, and that of swine a
gain of seven per cent, as is
done? Barley and rye are six per
cent. below an average" What
truthful person viii swear or can swear
that he knows what an average yield
of barley, rye, hay and the hog crop is
in the great Northwest? We believe in
reliable agricultural statistics, but we
have little patience with a counterfeit
article. Let statisticans tell what they
kaOlg about temperature, rain, yield
per acre and in the aggregate, and
stop at that point. Truth is what the
public wants, nothing more, nothing
loss

HOW 1T HAPPENS.

Mr.. Ryan, the newly appointed Chief
Justice Of Wisconsin, is Almost amiable
gentleman and accomplished lawyer.
We do not name him but to praise;
but doesn't it seem a little odd that,
whenever they have an Office to fill, and
place Reformer in it, he turns out to
be a Thoroughbred and dyed-in-the
wool Democrat?-St Louis Globe Rad
The reason is, they can't find the
proper timber outside the Democratic
party. The newly appointed Chief
Justice is denounced by the Radicals
as a notorious rebel sympathizer. "
But they don't tell us what rebels he
sympathizes with. Is it the Cubans,
the Carlists or the Rackensackers? So
far as at present advised, however, We
are inclined to think that the Judges
chief offense consists in sympathizing
with the rebellion of the people against
a faithless and profigate administra-
ton, and Wisconsin has already exhib-
tied its sympathies very emphatically
in the same way.-Sk. Louis Times.

PLENTY OF MONEY IN EUROPE
New York Tribune

The European money markets are
now in a condition of great ease. The
Bank of England yesterday fixed its
minimum discount rate at two-and-a-
half per cent, which is lower than it
has been for more than two years. Tt
gained nearly FIVE million dollars in
specie during the week. The Bank of
France, ON the 4th inst, reduced its
minimum rate to four per cent, having
at that date brought its note
circulation below five hundred mil
lion dollars and its specie re-
serve up to two hundred and
twenty-eight millions. The French
mint has commenced the coinage of
twenty frame gold pieces. Meanwhile
this country looks idly on the scene,
exporting its gold to France and Eng
land and hugging the dear greenback
to its breast. Paper currency is super
abundant here; and Congress proposes
lin the last conference report to give
us practically ffty-six millions more
of it. Like the sacred cats of Egypt,
our dollars are free to multiply, but
woe to him who attempts to destroy
one of them. Egypt was a pleasant
land for those who understood it. Con-
gress would have been venerated there.

The article from the Nelo York Bull
letin, a journal devoted to finance and
trade and not partisan politics, which
is reproduced in to-day's UNION AND
AMERICAN, shows conclIsively that
Grant has again been playing for the
benefit of the gold gamblers, and prob
ably with the same result as on the re-
markable Black Friday'-substantial
gain forhimself. tits quitecle that the
"weli known banking house, intimate
with the President" who appears to
have been favored with a knowledge of
the the memorandum" in advance of
of its PRONUNCIATION, made not less than
a quarter of million by operations
predicated upon that knowledge. 1t is
singular, TO say the least, that by almost
every turn of the Presidential crank,
Grant and his friends make money.
