The MONASTERY During the past summer
it was announced that the Monks Of the Order
known as the "Trappists," had purchased a
tract Of land and would begin the erection in
the summer of 1879 of large Monastery at a
point somewhere along the line of the Pigeon
hills, either in York or Adams county, and
that large number of the Monks had al.
ready arrived in this country from France
and Ireland, preparatory TO entering upon
the work. As yet it is not definitely known
where the Monastery is to be located, but we
have heard it rumored that the location will
probably be in that part of the Hills near
what is known as Turkey Spring in Der.
wick township, Adams county, abou, midway
between the Hanover and Abbottstown and
Oxford and Abbottstown pixies, and some
three or four miles North of Hanover The
work of erecting the buildings and other labor
will be performed exclusively by the Monks,
who differ in all respects from the other Mon
astics. Orders of the Catholic Church,
their lives being devoted to the striciest Sc
clusion and retirement from the outside

and other means of spiritual pur6cation.

The New York Sun puts the Presiden-
tial fraud of 1876 in the following clear
and forcible light before the public:

Two days after the election Of 1876 every.
body conceded that Mr.. Iilden had carried
1874 electoral votes, and needed only one
more to insure his election. At the same
time it was universally admitted that Hayes
had carried 1853 electoral votes, or twenty-five
short of the number to elect him.
The twenty-five votes in dispute were those
of Louisiana, Florida, South Carolina, and
Oregon. The Republicans have all along as
serted that soon after the election these votes
were offered for sale, and were kept on the
market for some weeks.
There is truth in this assertion; they icere
offered for sale But Tilden did not get one
OF them, and Hayes got them all. Then,
which side bought them? Why, the Hayes
side, Of course. Men are sent to the peniten-
tiary and even to the gallows, every week, on
testimony no stronger than this.
