The U. $. senatorships.

Several Legislatures balloted yesterday for U.
$. Senator. In Maine Mr.. Hamlin, (Rep) had a
majority in both Houses. In New York, Herman
(Dem.) had 10 majority in the House
against Republican majority in
the Senate, and will be elected on joint ballot,
to-day. In Rhode Island. two additional ballots
were taken, the result of which showed that
Burnside has lost ground and Dixon has gained.
The vote on the second ballot stood; Burnside,
81 Dixon, 81 Barstow, Is ; scattering, IS Nee.
essary to a choice, SO.
In Massachusetts,, also, there was no choice,
the division of the Republicans between Dawes
and Hoar being continued On two ballots,
Dawes received Is votes to IA for Abbott for
Hoar, and three scattering. The House, on the
second ballot, gave Dawes 90, Abbott, II
Hoar, 43 Charles Francis Adams, Is, and 5
scattering. Dawes had received SO votes and
Hoar so on the first ballot. and the transfer of
strength from Hoar has encouraged the friends
of Dawes.
The vote in Pennsylvania elects Wallac g,

and that in Michigan. Chandler, (Rep.) In Ten.

legal mind can elaborate, and attenuated as only
cross-examining attorney can draw 1t out. OF
what good slt all ? The fact is Mr.. Beecher
has been tried. The whole country was his jury.
His assailants leveed every possible charge at
him, and brought up every shred of their evi.
dence. The result was that the jury disagreed.
Some thought him innocent, some guilty, some
said "not proven And now, unless new testi-

The Last Pennsylvania slave


Betsy Williams, one Of the last of Pennsylva-
MAS Slaves died in Lewisburg, recently, at the
advanced age of seventy-fve. She was pur-
chased by William Davis, of Limestonevlle
Montour county, when only eight years old. At
the age of eighteen she became free. Her skill
as a cook was unsurpassed and she welded her
authority with regal sway in the kitchen. Her
fame spread throughout the neighborng country.
Many are the recollections possessed by as many
persons. of the royal way in which she Drowned
a: turkey. Her doughnuts were unsurpassed.
She was good friend, or a good enemy. She
was perfectly identified with the interests Of the
family with whom she lived. Her masters friends
were her friends his enemies, her enemies his
joys her joys his SORROWS, her sorrows. AS age
crept upon her, her manners became remarkably
kind and winning. The smallest child did not
hesitate to climb into her friend
ly lap, and even the brute
creation such as dogs and cats, was attracted
toward her and always found her ready to be-
friend in all emergencies. The old homestead
was at last broken up, and old "Aunty" found a
home with one of the daughters of her old mas
ter, Mrs. DR.. Mari, Of fLewisburg.
