now TO PAY POLITICAL
DEBTS.

The Lancaster Intelligencer says; As
We understand the suit of Republican
printing firm in Philadelphia, against
Matthew s. Quay, Secretary of this
Commonwealth, and an aspirant for
United States Senator, he gave a check
TO the printers for s2,667.35, which he
owed them for debts contracted as
Chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee and signed the
check, M. S. Quay, Chairman" Hc
had no money in the bank on which
the check was drawn, it was protested,
and he is sued for it. His defense is
that he contracted the debt as "Chair.
man." gave the check as "Chairman, y
and hence is not liable. As the Com
mittee has no corporate existence, ol
course Quay is not liable, nobody is
and the printer must be cheated out Of
his money. We believe Mr. Quay

The GRAND JunY FRAuD.-A co.
temporary remarks. "rhe bribery
cases originating in the Legislature at
the time tho bill relative to the Pitts.
burgh riot losses was before that body,
came up for trial in the court at Har.
risburg last week. The case of Mr..
Slater member from Philadelphia,
was the first called and he got on a
technicality. 1t seems that the law,
in summoping Grand Jury, twenty.
four persons are summoned, but only
twenty.threc are sworn, in order that
in finding true bills there may be a
majority voting for them. There were
twenty-three persons sworn, but in
acting on the bribery bills there were
twenty.four grand jurors; but how
the twenty-fourth man got into the
room is mystery. All the bills were
consequently quashed and new bills
will be presented before the Grand
Jury in January next 1t was shrewd
trick to get the twenty fourth man
into the Grand Jury room, and its per.
petration showed that the persons in.
dicted did not wish to try tho merits
of their respective cases-that it was
better to get of by technicality than
by the verdict Of a jury. All we have
TO say is, that persons who act in the
capacity of lobbyists about Harrisburg
are up to all manner of tricks, and it
takes courts and juries to keep their
eyes wide open to beat them"

The New WAR SEcRErARY.-The
Harrisburg Patriot, in alluding to the
confirmation of Mr.. Ramsey, the new

McCrary's confirmation for United
States Judge of the Eighth Circuit has
been followed by the nomination OF the
Hon Alexander Ramsey, of Minnesota,
for Secretary of War Mr.. Ramsey
thirty years ago represented this dis
trict in Congress. After the close OF
bis service in Congress he emigrated
to Minnesota Of which he was Terrific
rial Governor. When the State was
admitted to the Union in 1857, he was
elected to the Senate of the United
States in which be served three terms.
He has been continually in Office since
bis election to Congress from Pennsyl.
vania, except theshort interval between
the close OF bis service in the Senate
and his present appointment, which he
owes to the partiality of Mr.. Hayes.
He is q man of fair abilities and popu-
lar manners. As ho regards Office as
a means of personal advantage he will
take care Of himself and his friends in
his new position of Secretary of War.
But he will suit General Sherman who
runs that Department

A VACANT SEAT.-The death of Hon.
VIM. W. Ketcham causes vacancy
on the Bench of the United States
District Court for tho Western Dis
trict. He died suddenly at midnight
on Saturday, the 9Th INST, at the St.
Charles Hotel, Pittsburgh, Of apo
pleAy. The following are the details
of this sad and sudden affair. The
Judge had been on duty, upon the
Bench Of the United States District
Court, up to 3 P. NJ on Saturday. He
then went TO his hotel, took dinner,
and passed the rest of the afternoon
until 8 P. NJ. with Mrs. Ketcham. AT
that time hc got up from the chair
where be was sitting and approached
the lounge. In SO doing he was over
come with faintness and sank to the
floor. His fall aroused the occupants
OF the room beneath, Mr.. and Mrs,
G. A. Cotton. They hurried to the
Ketcham apartments and helped the
dying mans wife to get him to bed
and attend TO his wants. He was un-
conscious at the time, but remarked to
Mr.. George Gamble, Of the hotel, that
in few hours 1t "would be all over
with him." Shortly after the Judge
rclapsed into Inconsistencies, and
death ensued few hours before mid
night.

THE MAIN QUESTION.


The New York Sun was nil for
Hancock the other day, publishing bis
orders while 10 command of the do.
partments of Missouri and Louisiana
during the posi- belim reconstruction
days. No Democrat will be found to
dispute General Hancock's noble record
in those days Of great trial, and the
Sun may be right in supposing that
they have gained for him the political
strength which makes him to day the
most available candidate for the party.
For We assume that this is the position
qf the Syn, since otherwise 1t would be
folly to urge General Hancock's nom.
inotion. The Democratic party is not
so flush OF strength just now that it
can afford to give its Presidenture TO
any man as q reward Of merit. 1t has
no votes to throw away, and cannot be
asked to nominate any man who is not
certain Of cordially receiving every
Democratic vote in tho country, and
who does not bid fair TO command the
support of the men hanging on the
ragged edge of parties, and voting
manly their independent convictions.
If General Hancock is this man we
want him If not we cannot afford to
take him, whatever his deserts may be
at our hands. Will he be the strongest
candidate in New York is the simple
question for the Sun to answer, and il
il can convince itself of that fact il is
right to advocate his nomination, and
if he can convince the party OF 1t be
will bo very sure to receive it.

CANDID, ANYHOW.

The Washington Republic, a Radical
organ, takes ii straight this way "0ur
Minister TO China, Mr.. Seward, was
last winter convicted, in the minds Of
all who took the trouble to read the
testimony taken by the Springer Com.
mittce, of dishonest practices in bis
high office. The State Department
stood between him and infamy, and he
was allowed to go back to the office be
had disgraced. 1t is said now that he
will be superseded during the present
session Of Congress. There is no rea.
son for his removal now that did
not exist last spring, and it will not
be strange if the Democrats take ad.
vantage Of the circumstance and say
that Seward is removed now to save
impeachment ut the present session Of
Congress. 1t looks as though ii was
tho intention Of the Administration to
saddle the blame on +. W. Seward, tho
retiring Assistant Secretary of State,
and the cousin of the Minister. 1t is
a pity that the great Republican par
ty should suffer for tho acts of few
cowardly incompetents." What a pity
it is that "a few cowardly incompe.
tents" do such ugly things. "A few?''
Why, their name is legion.

A MODEM DESPERADO.

An exchange relates the following :
No greater rogue nor more desper-
ate criminal is kept within the con
fines of the Eastern penilcntiary than
Ralph ROLAND. His adventures at
Chambersburg, where he edged him
self into good society by pl.ying ;he
part OF moral aristoorat his ATTEMPT
on the bank and his capture bis sub.
sequent escape and recapture, and bis
sentence for term OF years to the
Eastern peniientiary-are all familiar
to newspaper readers. In the peni.
tentiary be became i'll at ease He
brlbed one OF his attendants and plan.
ned an escape, but his plot was dis.
covered his health declined until un.
derncalh a kid plaster on his back was
found an assortment Of fine saws,
knives, &C., showing weakness only
for liberty; he adopted the insanity
dodge, hoping TO DO removed to an
asylum where escape would be easy,
but that failed him; and on Sun.
day, The 9TH inst, he played bis most
desperate game, and lost. During re-
ligious services, when the oells were
opened that the prisoners might hear,
ROLAND emerged from his cell with his
dinncr.knife, which he had sharpcned
into dangerous weapon, in his hand
and made a bold attempt to regain bis
liberty. In most prisons bo would
have been shot like dog, But here
one keeper with revolver compelled
him to drop his weapon, when he
leaped down a distance Of twenty feet
TO the floor below, where he only sue.
cumbed when knocked down by tho
keepers there. He then refused TO
return TO his room, and had TO be car.
red to cell and was left there de-
prived Of every comfort but blanket.
Prison life is calling TO ROLAND, and be
is not philosopher enough to endure it
like a man. II is to bo hoped they'll
keep him there.

THAT STOLEN DocuMESr.-Hayes'
Message was stolen and published in

to the theft, says; "Tho stealing and
premature publication of tho Presi.

English copyist in the For,ign Office,
who last year surrcptitiously and for a
consideration furnished TO the London
Globe the project, as yet confidential,
Of a subsidiary treaty on tho Turkish
question. II is much worse case,
however, as the scandal affects direct.

His title rests upon Acknowledgement Of lawful

SoouNDRELlsM AT AN EHp.-There
being no longer Returning Board
in the State OF Louisiana, an honest
count of the vote cast at the election
held last week was had and the result
is the election of tho Democratic candi-
date for Governor by nearly 10000
majority. There was no rioting or
lawlcssness, as there were no rascally
carpet-baggers there to create disturb.
ances and q peaceful and honest cleo
ton was the result. The campaign
was an open and lively one, and Re.
publican speakers were nowhere inter

what took place in that State in 1876,
when the election boards and return.

A NEW "ApvocATE. The Pitts.
burgh Christian Adrocate has opened q
new field. The territory Of godliness
seems to have been too small field
for the huge brain Of the editor. In
his last issue he advocates the cancella-
ton Of all the greenbscks, but tails to
suggest what is to take their place in
the shape Of money. In the same is
sue he also promulgates this wise say.
ing "Readers of the Adpocate need
only have the matter referred to, TO
call TO mind the fact, that this has
been the doctrine we have advocated
during tho entire financial contro.
versy." Our suggestion to this modern
saint is, that he had, for the benefit Of
his readers, give little more attention
to genuine godliness and less to green.
backs, IL he wishes his readers to be-
licve that he is Christian.
