A Relic.

The Charlottesville (va.) Jeffersonian
says: "George Carr, Esq, informed us the
other day that one of bis farm hands in
plowing field on his farm, brought to the
surface gold coin, coined more than one
hundred years ago. This farm of Mr.. Carr,
is seven miles nearly north from Charlottes-
Vile, and is the place where the army sur
randered by General Burgoyne in the Revo-
luton we're located as prisoners of war. and
this coin was undoubtedly lost by one of
the prisoners. The foundations Of the cab
ins in which these prisoners lived can be
seen at this day, and in the forests are seen
the graves of those who died while quar-
tered there. We believe the fields retsin
the names given them at the time, such as
eadquarters, etc. When the prisoners
were removed from the county the place
was purchased by the late Garland Garth,
ESQ and he said there was not tree on
the place. The forests in the vicinity had
been cut down for fuel. Quite number of
the prisoners remained and married.. In
the list ofold men published two weeks
since are the names of two brothers, one
being IS and the other 81 years of age,
whose father was one Of the Burgoyne pris-
oners."

It Is hardly any longer doubtful that TIL

twenty thousand. The majorities of the

breath ont of the other side, as they come
in at figures never before given, and the
problem on which the State trembles in the
balance, is whether the Republican coun-
ties can keep up to anything like their old

with $500; Indiana with 1890; Dauphin
with 1890; Chester with 5000, and Della
ware with 2,10O, the majority of Tilden
outside the city will be nominal, and Hayes
will carry the State by say O,OOO out of .
poll of over 100000. But If Allegheny shall
drop to 5000, Lancaster to 5000; Erie to
1000; Bradford to 2,sOO; Dauphin to 800,
and Chester to 1900, Tilden will come to
Philadelphia with quite enough to overcome
any possible unknown quantity in Philas,
delphia majority. With Berks certain to
overlap the long dreamed of majority Of
1000, with Northampton, Luzerne and
York sure to score up $500 each; with the
West Branch Democratic counties of North
cumberland, Lycoming and Clinton likely
to range from 1000 to 1,50O each; with Cen
tire safe for full 1000 and Clearfeld for
900; with Cumberland crowding close to
900, and Adams to half as much, and the
Western and Northwestern counties dis.
tracted on the Republican side and united
on the Democratic side, no dispassionate
observer will set Pennsylvania down as GER
tain for Hayes. On the contrary, while re-
garding it as fairly doubtful, we consider
the chances on the side of Tilden, and likely
to improve daily until the election.
