than our duty in advising every housekeeper
who does not have q Charter Oak Stove to
get one with the least possible delay.

Pulling down our houses, our vessels on the strand
HaIf e century had passed and no gale had we seen.

SCRANTON, Marcel 23.-The opera
house and Boston dry goods store burned
this morning. inhicting loss of $780,
900; insurance $75 600. Positive evil
dence exists that the fire was the work
of an incendisry. Only few moments
before the fire broke out in the Opera
House, an attempt was made to fire
the Second National Bank, and
tonight an incendiary fire was
discovered in the postofiice
block. The Council was called by the
Mayor TO take special action in the
matter, and the city has offered n reward
of $4,000, for the arrest and conviction
of the incendiaries. Two previous at
tcmpts were made to burn the opera
house within the past week.

come to light showing that j. I. Bsbcox,
late coiner ut the mint, has embezzled
about $4,000. General La Grange,
superintendent of the mint, in an inter-
view. said he advised and accepted Bah
coxs resignation last December, because
he failed to compile with the regulations
governing his department, and he La
Grange considered him such failure
that be opened the door for the entrance OF
grave abuses; but that a careful eIani
nation of Babcox's acts and comparison
with the coin and bullion on hand, show
ed no misappropriation of funds, and on
presenting the matter TO the United
States district attorney, no evidence
could be found on which TO base an in
dictment.

II. Garrettscn and Edwin Cowles dele
gates to the National Convention. The
following resolution was adopted:
Resolred, That while we do not deem
it advisable at any time to instruct
delegates as to whom they shall
cast their vote for, neverthe-
less having full confidence in
Gov. K. b. Hayes, we believe him to
be eminently qualified for the position
of President OF the United States, and
worthy of our support; that his record
whether as private citizen, soldier,
member of Congress, or as the chief execu-
tive of the State, is without blemish;
that in all public positions he has hon
ored himself, and given entire satis!ac-
ton to his constituents; that his
name is presented not from the feelii of n
state pride nor for compliment, but
because his integrity, ability and hon
esty is a sure guarantee, and that in the
event of his election the offices of the
nation will be honestly administered as
Ohio Is to the battle ground in the COM
ing campaign. We earnestly recon-
mend the delegates elected this day TO
give Governor Hayes their earnest and
hearty support in the National Conven-
ton ut Cincinnati

More Diselosures-Assessm for
Political Purposes.

WAsHINGros, March DE. N. Peck
was recalled and testified, before the
Committee on Expenditures in the War
Department to day, that post traders
were assessed for political purposes, and
that during the last Presidential canvass
he paid from 81, 900 to $1,000. he thought
he remitted the money to the chairman
Of the. committee at Washington. he
presumed they were asked to subscribe
because they held the post trsdershlps
under the administration. He did not
consider they were obliged 10 pay, but
we're notified that contributions would be
acceptable. He thought that the amount
of contributions from military posts was
designated in proportion to the number
OF troops there.
j. j. Fisher was recalled and testified
that the firm of Evans & Co, post trad
ers, contributed money for political pur-
poses IN pursuance ofa request contained in
n printed circular. He did not under
stand that the contribution was compul-
sorry, but he thought it the safer way to
pay the money. Apart from political
considerations, Mr.. Evans testified that
during the last Presidential canvass, he,
in compliance with circular, sent $500
to the Republican Executive Committee
in Washington, and had paid $3.50 to the
same committee within the last six
months. He voted for LincolR as Presi
dent against Mcclellan, but he was not
now mixed in politics. He would not
have paid the money if he had not been
called Oh 10 do So He sent check for
the money to Postmaster Edmunds,
Eli Leonard, of Cincinnati, testified
that he was in the hardware business
with the late Mr.. Bower. The estate of
the deceased was from twenty-eight TO
thirty thousand dollars, fifteen thousand
being for life insurance. The money be
owed to Mrs. Bowers was paid, as a sur.
viving partner, to George ii. Pendleton,
u mutual friend OF both parties, and who
was attorney for Mrs. Bowers, Witness
never heard what investment was made
of the money. He knew &. Z. Marsh.
who, at that time, was in Cincinnati, but
he had no connection with the transac-
tion. Marsh said he was glad the widow
came out so nicely in her business.
John Fletcher, of Indianapolis, testi-
ned that in 1871 he made application for
the post leadership at Fort Dodge. He
bad interviews with the Secretary of
War, but was told that the position had
been promised.
The testimony was not important
Lieutenant Colonel McCook testified
that he believed the Secretary of War or
some middle man had been selling the
post traderships. This WAS matter OF
common conversation at the western
posts.
