InoondIary Fires at COIumbus.

Columbus was considerably agitated on
Saturday night last BY the breaking out
Of incendiary fires in different parts Of
the city. The first and most. destructive
cohfagration was the burning of the ware
house, Of VIM. Manypenny, containing
oyer 10000 bushels of grain, and inyolv-
ing an estimated loss of over 800, 200, or
more than the aggregate loss in the city
by fire in ten years previous. The grain
elevator and warehouse of Gee. Money was
also destroyed; loss $26, 900. These were
followed in quick succession by five other
fires in the eastern part of the city being
started in barns ON private premises. The
residence Of VIM. Murphy was destroyed
loss s., 900. Several parties have been ar
rested, suspected as incendiaries. Mr.
Manypenny had $31, 600 insurance on his
property. III

Special TO the Dispatch
NEWARK, Feb. %, 1872
The following is the report of the Com
missioners in the matter of the lnYesJlga-
ton of the accounts of S. 5. Wells, Clerk
of the Court:
The County commissioners, pursuant
to their order of February 18th, together
with George n. eraser and Z. D Brady,
proceeded to the Office of the County
CLERK and proceeded with the examina-
ton and comparison of all accounts filed
bv said clerk during his term of office
and obtained the following result:
The amount claimed by w els was $3,-
295. SO; the amount allowed, $1,817 .6S !;
amount overdrawn, with interest, 81 ,55S, :
40: less the amount heretofore deducted
by Commissioners, $506. SO making the to-
/ tai amount to be refunded by Wells ST.
| O51 40.
1t will be seen by the above that the
| interest on the amount OverdraWn IN ac-
count dated July, 1873, $4.4O, is small in
consequence of said account having been
| reduced to within $70.05 of its proper
amount at the time of its allowance
of the Commissioners. 1t was thereupon
| on motion of Mr.. HoskinsOn, ordered that
1.-THE County Auditor proceed to the Office
Of the County Clerk and notify him OF
the completion of said investigation and
its result. and that said Clerk shall pay OF
aforesaid, being $1O51 40, into the County
Treasury.
Mr.. Wells paid back the amount into
Il the County Treasury within ten minute:
after receiving the notification.
FURTHER INVESTIGATION
Win be made in Clerk Wells affairs. Il
is thought that the unclaimed fees tha
he has paid into the treasury has been ex
, ceedingIy small, and the matter will b.
investigated at once. Other matters tina
do not look exactly square in the eyes o
the Commissioners will be looked into
The Commissioners have determined t.
carry the investigation to the bottom, lie
I it strike whom it may.
Sheriff SchOfield will be the next maj
to be brought up to explain matters IL
which he has, from all appearances
. drawn more fees from the county than b
,. is entitled to. For instance, Sheriff
J allowed $500 per year on cases wherein
2 the State fails to convict. The Sherl1
: was in office four years, and he has fUe O
these bills paid by the county. The Con
missioners say he must explain this mat
ter satisfactorily or pay back the $500. I
: large number of cases in which the Sherl
' has made overcharges have come to ligh
: In fact, things are getting SO warm ths
! / the ex-Sheriff's friends have teiegraphe
I him to come home at once, he being
: the Weston business. One man, who hs
e a number of bills where Schofield hs
: overcharged, Informed a DispDtch reports
y fthfs Afternoon that ne would commend
: suit against SchO1feld if he did not pa
J, back the money forthwith. 5.s,4.

Always Hostile to Honest ElectLOnSs
1t is a noteworthy circumstance that
the Democratic party cannot in all its
history show q single instance in the Fed
eraI Congress or any State Legislature of
its originating or faYoring laws for the
protection of the ballot-boX. Their re-
cord is one of unvarying opposition to
every form Of legislation calculated to se-
cure a pure ballot and an honest election.
A IL registry laws have met their bitterest
opposition, every measure intended to
protect the citizen in the exercise of his
right, and to insure to each voter his just
share in the Government, has encounter
ed Democratic hostility at the threshold.
Until the condition of affairs in the South
after emancipation suggested 1T to them
as mere dodge to defeat negro rule, they
never favored restricting suffrage by an
intelligence test. All the acts to prevent
repeating ballot-box stuffing false count
ing and cheating in general which are
now in existence on the Statute books of
any State, or the statutes at large, have
been placed there by the opponents of the
Democratic party, and almost without eX-
ception have been carried through as
party measures upon strictly party votes.
By its record in every State Legislature
and in Congress, the party is committed
to opposition to any and every effort to
make honest elections sure. Upon nc
other political questions has their record
been so consistent and inHariable. The
instincts of the fresh emigrant to vote
with the party Ffagin the Government" i!
not more certain than that of the average
Democrat to oppose all election laws
which obstruct the operations of the lille
gal voter, the ballot-stuffer and repeater

The excellent discipline Of the Institu-
ton made all this possible, without aeci-
dents or any untoward manifestation of
alarm, and in a comparatively brief time
all the occupants of the vast building
were ready, with portables packed, to
withdraw to the grounds outside in per
feet order, should necessity demand it.
Fortunately, although second fire was
actually lighted, and barn burned in the
near neighborhood, the precautions taken
were so effeetual that no harm was done
to the buildings connected with the Insti-
tuition, and after the last of the fires had
been extinguished, and quiet had been
restored on the streets, Superintendent
/ Fay and his efficient assistant, the Matron
of the institution, Mrs. Babbitt, under
whose united personal directions much
had been accomplished in preparation fol
an emergency, had the satisfaction of see
ing the different bands composing theil
charge safely returned to their dormi
tories for the remainder of the night.

Captain Boyton came very near losing
his life yesterday. 1t will be remembered
that he is the inventor of an apparatus
which permits the wearer to remain in
the water for an indefinite length of time
without drowning. No doubt it is very
valuable invention, but we confess that
we do not see any utility in the expert
ments he is now making. A short time
ago he made a trip down the Allegheny
river, a hundred and fifty miles, and
nearly perished from cold and floating
ice. He is now engaged in making trip
to New Orleans, but unless he has better
luck than he has had thus far, he will
never reach there. If he persists in these
foolish and unnecessary experiments, the
people will soon begin to consider him as
a Snowman, desirOus of exhibiting his
skill, rather than as man who has, a
| valuable invention.-Disatch.p

STOCK ITEMS.

From the Pittsburg Price Current, Feb. z7th.
The only reason for the dulIness and
decline in the sheep market this week is
in the oversupply.
The supply of hogs from the States trib-
utary to this market will no doubt be
short for the next two or three months,
but we apprehend no scarcity after that
time.
Stable-fed cattle are coming in pretty
freely for this time of the year, and judg-
ing from this fact it would seem probable
that many more have been fed in this
way during the past season than usual.
New York buyers are operating rather
sparingly this week, having somewhat
discouraging reports from that market.
Hog men, having worked off the West
ern glut which embarrassed them last
week, are feeling better now, and buying
more freely and confidently this week.
There haye been good many stock
cattle on the market this week, which, as
country buyers were plenty, sold readily
at $393.50 per cwt. The demand is not
vet as strong as it will be. although the
season is now fairly opening.
No live cattle at all were shipped from
New York last week for England, 50
head for the Bermudas being the total
number exported on 1901. Il ne amount
of dressed beef taken to England was 7,-
$40 quarters, and of mutton 2, ,42O car
casses.
The trade in prime cattle will be under
a kind of depression for the next week OF
two, until the status of exported cattle al
Liverpool is more clearly defined. BH
few live cattle are leaving New York
and this of course must react on the in
land markets.
The season of Lent opened yesterday
and we will now have a few weeks ii
which a large per cent. of our population
abstain entirely from the use of meats
This will of course affect the butcher trad
to some extent, and slightly curtail th'
. retail sales of all kinds of stock.
Hogs, and especially good ones, ar
, still on the advance, giving East libert.
little higher quotations than any othe
market west of Philadelphia. The bes
! grades are in fair demand, and reall
l first class Philadelphia hogs will readil
bring $4,75 per cwt. We do not look
E however, for figures to go much, if any
5 higher.
2 The handsome profits which pork pack
I ers are certain of realizing on their win
| ter's work will no doubt be much NOR
than sufficient to make up for the losse
: which they sustained in the spring {
!. 1873, and will encourage them to go int
the business more extensively than eve
;. next winter. The prospect of pork fC
y the ensuing year must be regarded b
U those who carefully observe such mattel
I as most excellent.
