The Republicans expect to carry the

calculations of either party, great i'm

satisfactory to all parties. The Demo
Gratis say that Indiana, Ohio and West
Virginia, in every Presidential election
heretofore. have cast their votes for the
Republican party twice for Lincoln,
twice for Grant, and Ohio once for Ere.
mont besides. Now Indiana and West

gone the other way, but the Republicans
hope to see them back, as usual, in No.

The Congressional Nomination.


The CongressiOI al conirees Of this
district assembled at Stroudsburg, Mon
roe county, on Tuesday afternoon last,
as per adjournment at Milford. After
the preliminary business the members
proceeded to ballot for O candidate for
Congress, and after a number of bal
lots had been taken without any choice,
the Convention adjourned until We'd
nesday morning, when having taken
several ballots and no choice of candi-
date being made, they adjourned till 2
o'clock p. m. Upon reassembling at
that hour, the 1Slth ballot was taken as
follows
Collins, ll-Luserne 8, Pike 8, Montour g.
Monroe
Kotz, 4-CarboD 3, Monroe l,
BrOckway. S-C0lumnia
Collins was therefor declared the
choice of the Convention. The friends
of Col. Klotz are very much dissatisfied
at his defeat, and he certainly should
have had the nomination in accordance
with promises and pledges made two
years ago. OF the two there is no doubt
but that KlOtz is the most popular
among the people.

Considerable of sensation was
created throughout the country Mon
day morning by what appeared to be
an authoritative announcement of the
death of Commodore Vanderbilt. The
morning bulletin of the veteran rail-
road kings health had been unusually
favorable. He had passed the previous
day as comfortably as any day of the
past week, and the evening was spent
in front parlor adjoining his bed room,
where members of his family, at his re.
quest, sang some of his favorite hymns.
Yet the report of his death at ten min
utes after ten O'Clock Monday morn
ing was sufficiently credited to affect
the stock market in a perceptibe de
gree. Before noon, however, came
the official announcement that the
Commodore was still alive, and matters
gradually resumed their normal cOndi-
ton. About noon Monday, the follow
ing despatch, signed by the Commodore,
was sent to Wall street firm am
alive and we'll better than l have be-
in mauy months"

DIPHrHERIA AxD ITS CURE.

A small quantity of either sulphate Of
irsn, tannin, or chlorate of potash, put
dry upon the tongue, and allowed to
dissolve there, once in every-hour, have
been found most efficient remedies in the
early stages of diphtheria. This terrible
disease appears under three varieties or
forms: 1st, There is a fever, severe
pains in the back, bones and limbs, and
very great prostration. There may be
soreness of the throat, but, on examining
it, small white specks will be noticed on
the tonsils, but few or none on the rest
of the throat. These cases will recover
under any and every variety of treat
ment in four or six days. The great, but
false reputation of many physicians and
remedies is based upon necessarily favor
able results of these causes. ID. Large
patches of false membrane will be observ-
ed, both on the tonsils and on the back
of the throat but the glands of the
neck do not become swoolen. The ma
iority of these cases will also recover
under very simple treatment, unless the
disease extends down to the wind pipe,
which it really does. 8. True malignant
diphtheria, with swelling of the glands
of the neck and under the jaw; profuse
and often offensive exudations in the
mouth and throat; more orless discharge
from the nostrils. ChlOrate of potash is
a disinfectant as well as a curative rem
edy, and If given pure and dry upen the
tongue, every hour, night and day, will
rarely disappoint the practitioner. A
small dose, every night, may act rs q
preventive remedy. Sometimes tannin
may be given more readily than the
chlorate of potash. The sulphate of iron
is rather more irritant, and must be Civ.
en- in smaller quantities. The main
points in the use of these remedies are to
give them dry upon the tongue, and fire.
quently and regularly, both night and
day.

HOW THEY SEE Us.

The correspondents have been inter
centennial to get their opinions of us
Americans. The Turkish gentleman
says he thinks we are dreadfully inquisi-
tive, and that he has occasionally had to
say he himself was not on exhibition.
The Frenchman thinks we eat very bad
food, and need school of eating. More
good wine and less bad whisky would
help us, in his opinion. Our clothing is
cheap enough, but our drink is dear.
The Spaniards and Portuguese think
things here are cheap and good. The
Italian interviewed thinks we lack senti-
ment and principle. Our women puz-
zle Kim. He asks "is it innocence, vir-
tue, ingeniousness, or what % Our food
and clothes cost more than those In Italy,
and our custom-house officers are brutes.
The Swiss think business is impossible
in country with custom-houses ike
ours. The Austrian gentleman laments
that the average American don't know
the difference between an Austrian and
an Australian, and takes him for the
latter. Life in America is twice as costly
and not quite as good as in Vienna
The Danish gentleman thinks that II he
were back in Denmark he should like
America first rate; while he's here he
considers it very costly. The Belgiaps
think our stomachs must be out OF or
der, or we could not want TO eat what
we do. The Dutch do not like our wo-
men, but think our men are first rate
very ike Dutchmen. The Mexicans
want to improve our streetcar system
and think we manage abominably in the
matter of local travel. The Chinaman
| thinks the Chinese make muchee
money in Melica and Mclean man
makee d-n little money in Chilee."
The World says the Germans are 'he
people who really like us. They regard
this country as the paradise for working
men, and thoroughly like the way we d'
rhings here.

Arbitrary illegal arrests by federal
soldiers, under the orders of federal
I deputy -marshals, have begun in South
! Carolina Governor Chamberlain, can
didate tor reelection, opposed not only
by the democrats, but bya considerable
and increasing faction in his own party,
fears that he viii be beaten. According
~ he appeals to the federal administra-
tss;gV .i,lrss -iOan of soldiers to help him
intimidate the recalcitrant voters.
Having arranged board Of state can
vassers of election and a returning board,
the majority of whose members are can
didates on the same ticket with him, and
are thus by a monstrous perversion of
Justice entitled to decide the vote in
their own favor having further managed
that Of the ninety-six commissioners of
election in the counties seventy should
be his declared paItisans and forty Office
holders who hold their places by his ap-
pointment; having thus prearranged the
count in his own favor, Dir. Chamberlain
now summons federal troops and federal
authorities to arrest citizens known to be
opposed to him in politics And all this
in the United States, and under the
auspices Of q party which once called
itself the pre- eminent friends of liberty,
and some Of whose leading members held
the fugitive slave law to be unconstitu-
tional because it interfered with the
rights of the states. Mr. Charles Fran
els Adams, in recently published letter,
warned the people against the revolu-
tionary tendencies of the republican
leaders. Was he far wrong? \ multi
tude Of respectable citizens, among them
all the republican members of the su-
preme bench of the state assert publicly
that there is no trouble, no political
violence or Iawlessness in South Carolina.
The citizens who have been arrested have
submitted quietly. The governor him
self has made no preteuse even of an eff
fort to subdue 'lawlessness; he has done
nothing but issue violent and incendi-
ary proclamation, and sent for federal
troops, like his prototype, Perrin, in
Alabama, who shot hole through his
own hat and then called for the soldiers
Does the republican party of the north
consent to such revolutionary acts rs
this? Is this a sample of what it pro-
poses to do if it is continued in power
another four years? II so, then the
safest, the only safe course for northern
voters, is to turn it out. This is not
Mexico, but these acts of Governor
Chamberlain, this misuse of federal troops
and federal power, would, if continued
four years longer, set US a long way
toward Mexico. If it is granted that
the political party which happens to
possess the federal government, may
march its soldiers into the states for
political purposes, then we have paved
the way broadly for general civil dis
order. If these proceedings in South
Carolina are not promptly disowned by
the republican candidate, every northern
citizen, who has stake in the country,
ought to vote against him.
