y GREAT many absurd and amusing
things often find their way into the plat
forms adopted by State Conventions. and
one of the mos; notable instances of tIIc
kind may be- seen I'm the last plank of the
platform of the Republican state Con
yrutiou which met at Iarrisburr last
week. In the resolution. or plank. re-
ferred To-, the Republicans OF this state
are made To- say That I'VE heartily ell

Hoyt and the stalwart attitude of Sena-
tor Cameron and The Republican mem
bers of the House af Representatives i'm

Sisteutly pressed Lg the Democrats i'm

the same credit that 1i'c Republicans of
New York in a State Convention wouId
accord To Coukling, or that the Repub-
licaHs in Maine would gstcud TO Blaine

that Cameron was ever known to take

and important OCCASION, SUCH f1riustauce
as the races at Baltimore. he showed his

Cor. TOM BUFOED. who last spring
murdered Judge Elliott, of the Supreme
Court of Kentucky, at the foot of the
steps of q Louisville hotel. was convicted
last week of murder in the first degree
and the punishment. which 10y a law Of
that State is under the control of the
jury, was fixed 10y it at Imprisonment for
life in tine pcuiteutiary. This was not
the entertainment to which the Repub-
licau press OF the North expected TO be
invited. for ever since the murder it has
predicted that because Buford belonged
90 a wcll-buown Kentucky family he
would escape any severe penalty. When
Cox q short time after shot and killed
Col. Aston i'm the State House at At
lanta, the same Republican press secuted
at the idea That he would be punished,
simply because, like the Kentucky TRACE
dy. the crime took place i'm what was
once a slave state. But Cox met with
the same fate that Buford has. so that
deliberate murder cannot. as Republic
cans are constantly asserting, be COM
mitted with impmity i'm the lately re-
belliOus South amy more than 1t can in
the lOyal North.

WE now have the authority of no less
a man than Harry White for the state
ment that the project of a third nomina-
tiOn Of Grant is a failure. This news
reaches us from Washington, where
White put in an appearance yesterday
week, full of wisdom on the Presidential
question. He said that when he went
to the White House he would tell Mr.
Hayes that 1.-THE people had began to
talk about him for President again, -
which, being rightly interpreted, simply
means that White has a dull axe which
he wants Hayes to grind. He gave as
his authority for the HAYES feeling "a
big merchant of Pittsburg'' who told
him White) that the reelection of Hayes
would 3e better than anything that has
happened to this country for a great
while, and that it would settle Grant,
Sherman, Blaine and all the rest of
them. II find a good many people in
Pennsylvania, added White, ''who
think like the Pittsburg merchant -
-'Graut." " he said -'seems to have lost
his boom. He has lost largely of late,
not from any cause, but his name seems
to have dropped out. It may come up
again, but there is now much less heard
of him than formerly" It is quite pro
bable that White may make Hayes swaI-
low his statement that the people are be-
ginning TO talk about him for President
again, but he Will not succeed in getting
any other man in Washington who has
lucid intervals to believe any such dis
NAL nonsense. When john Tyler was
President. Daniel Webster said in a
speech that Tyler's party could easily be
carried IN a large omnibus {; and that is
just about the size of the crowd that
White meant when he said that he
would tell Hayes that '.the people" had
began to talk about him for President
again. White wants some change made
in the internal revenue districts in
Western Pennsylvania for the benefit of
some friends of his. and when it comes
out, as it surely Will before a great while
the Hayes milk in Whites cocoanut
viii be fully accounted for.

n AFTyE-YEAR-OLD HERO.-The following
instance of wonderful and valuable presence
of mind displayed by a mere child is related
in recent issue of the Pittsburgh Chronicle: ::
At GAINESVILLE, Ohio, recently. as the west
bound Baltimore * Ohio RrailrOad train was
coming into the city, little fellow, aged about
five years, named Willie Schwarden, was seen
standing in the middle Of the track
\ number Of bystanders saw him, but supposed
that he knew that the train was approaching.
and at first said nothing. But the train came
swiftly along and the little fellow paid no atten-
tiOl to IL.
Becoming alarmed, the bystanders called out
TO him to get of the track, but still the little fell
low stood there. needless of danger The train
came on under pretty high rate Of speed with
the bell ringing, ami the whistle screaming. 70
apprise the lad Oi his impending doom.
Michael Ryan. n playmate aged about FIVE
years seeing that his little friend would he killed
In moment, il he was not removed, rushed out
from among the men who were halloaing at the
impeTiled lad, and when the locomotive was with
IN ten feet OF Schwarden. he leaped on the track,
and with almost superhuman strength bore him
out OF danger. The engine steamed past leaving
Ryan there with his little companion in his arms,
the hero Of the hour. So daring and prompt an
act in one so extremely young has rarely been
known, and Willie owes to his little playmate
the debt OF his life.

GEN. EwING. the Democratic cahdI-
date for Governor of Ohio, opened the
campaign on yesterday week 10y address
ing an immense mass meeting at Ian
caster, Fairfield county, where he re-
sides. Gen. Ewing expresses great con-
iidence i'm his own election, while Foster,
the Republican nominee, is not willing
TO compromise upon less than twenty
thousand majority. This is a very
pleasant and happy delusion for one or
other of the candidates TO cherish until
the balIot-b0Nes declare who is victor
and who is vanquished. The election
will take place on the second Tuesday
Of October. and from now until then
there will he no pause inthe great battle
for political mastery in that State.

SOME idea of the enormous amount OF
grain and provisions that are now being
exported from this country to Europe,
may he formed from the simple state
ment that during the week ending July
22d, the shipments from New York of
wheat and corn amounted to l-455,UOO
bushels of bacon $500, 1873 pounds, and
of cheese T,4TS, ,S63 pounds. 1t is esJi-
mated in England that the shOrtness OF
the wheat crop in that country, as well
as in France. will compel the purchase
of wheat in the United States, to supply
their wants. to the extent of three b,u,-
drsd millions of doII0rs. This immense
foreign demand for grain viii of course
greatly benefit American farmers. and
ON the other hand increase the price OF
living in England and France.

JONI SIBERIAN is the only man in
this country, with the exception Of the
Imatic George Francis Train, who has
ever undertaken publicly to advertise
himself us candidate for the Presiden-
cy. Hppropriating to himself govern
ment revenue cutter, he has been sailing
along the Atlantic coast, visiting New
York, Boston and other cities, and max
ing speeches intended to boost him as
the next Republican candidate for the
Presidency. lie spent most Of last week
thus engaged in Maine. whose State
election viii occur early in September.
lie says he went away down to Maine to
help Blaine To- carry The election, but
that is too transparent, since it is not
the custom Of one Presidential candidate
to give aid and comfort to another Pre-
sidential aspirant in his own State. or
indeed anywhere else. If the RepubIi-
cans lose Maine. as the Greenbuckers
and Democrats claim that they will. it
will he a very large slice Of the day of
Judgment, both. to ''Bully Blaine" and
Agnes jerks special friend, John Sher-
man. In his speeches in Maine, Sher-
man presumed largely on the ignorance
of the people who listened to him. At
Portland, in eulogizing The Republican
party, he nnpudently proclaimed that
1T lthe party never robbed the ballot
box. Who stole the vote of Louisiana
but John sherman and his confederatcs
in the crime, all of whom were leaders
of the Republican party? He also said
of his party. 1T has done more than
any other party that ever existed to
provide land for the landlcss. =" The
people Of Maine, as well as the people of
every other state, know that John Sher-
mans party in Congress has literally de
spoiled the public domain by its nm.
limited land grants to monster rail road
corporations, and thereby prevented
more men from becoming land owners
than any party that has ever existed i'm

WHY BUTLER WAS NONuN NATED-Speak-
ing of the Republican nominee for State
Treasurerthe West Chester JeferSOHiaa says:
Mr. Butler, who IS n brother OF Hon. VIM But
Ter, Judge OF the United States District Court
has been n member Of the Legislature from Ches-
ter county since 1877, and is honorable and up
right man. whose character is beyond reprolch.
However, il is not for moment TO be cOnside red
that the nomination was made out OF compliment
to himself or the county which he represents.
Had it not been deemed eXpcdicnt by Cameron
from the political necessities Of the times to make
some concession to Chester county, Mr.. Butler
would have stood no more chance than if be had
been the worst political scalawag in the common
wealth. Mr.. Buffers chances were helped by tho
fact that he did not desert Cameron in the Sena-
torial contest, and Cameron never fails TO repay
favor. It seems rather odd that the Republicans
of this county, who have always made such q ter
rble ado about the Cameron ring and It's corrupt
Influences. should be willing to accept such a sop
from its hands as the nomination Of Mr.. Butler.

bright blue color. He thought at first that Il was
but vtping of some color that accidentIy got upon
his face, and then that It due to the indigo in
his shirt, but no matter how he may change the
blue peTspiration contriyes to come out. A towel
on which he wipes hangs in the shop and Mr..
hohi said that when hrst used It showed but a
faint color but soon became bright ccrulcan
blue. This VIII be an interesting case for the
physicians to investigate and ascertain causes
Mr.. Kohl assures Us that there is sell or hum

No GOOD PREACHING.-No man can
do a good job of work, preach a good
sermon, try law suit well, doctor a
patient, or write good article when he
feels miserable and dull. with sluggish
brain and unsteady nerves, and none
should make the attempt in such a con-
dition when it can be so easily and
cheaply removed by little Hop Bitters.
