Mr.. Joseph Taylor relates that a
ooys residing at a school hundred
miles from home, dreamt that he
went to his fathers house, found all
eesed for the night but the back
a0or, went TO his mothers room and
foand her awake IL come to bid
YOU goodbye" !" he said, "I am going
on a long Journey" She answered
with great trembling, ooh, dear son,
thou art dead" And he awoke.
Soon after he received letter from
his father making anxious inquiries
about his health, in consequence of a
frightful dream which his mother had
on the saline night, and which was
exactly identical with his own, even
to the very words ofthe conversation.
Fortunately no sad results followed,
though it may have proved a warn
ing to the boy in some inscrutable
manner unknown to his friends.
The case of the gentleman from
Cornwall who dreamed eight days be-
fore the event that he saw Mr.. Per-
cival murdered in the lobby of the
House of Commons by Bellingham
and distictly recognized from pub
lie prints, after the murder, both the
assassin and his victim, whom he had
never seen previously, seems capable
ony of supernatural explain alton,
especially when it is remembered
that the gentleman was with difficult
ty dissuaded by his friends from
going to London to warn Mr.. Percial
known to him in his dream as the
Chancellor of the Eychequer.) He
urged that it had occurred three times
in the same night, but his friends,
thinking it FOOLS errand, he allow
ed the matter to drop till the news
of the murder rudeIy resuscitated it.

A PROPOSED NEW STATE.

An association has been organized
in the western part Of Pennsylvania,
with headquarters in the city of Pitts
burg, which has for its object the erec-
tion Of new State out of a portion of
the Keystone State, called the State
of Allegheny. 1t is proposed to di-
vide the State of Pennsylvania SO as to
follow the county lines between Nc
Kean. Cameron, Clearfield, Blair, Hun
tingdon and Fulton counties on the
one side, and Potter, Clinton, Centre,
Mifflin, Juniata and Franklin counties
on the other the new State to con-
sist OF all that part Of Pennsylvania
west If the line so defined, 1t will en-
brace twenty-eight counties, with a
population of 2,+54,l9 The total
population of the entire State of Penn
sylvania is 4,237, ,312. This would
leave the State, after taking from it
the State of Allegheny, with 2,TSS, ,llt
inhaEitauts, or nearly twice the popu-
'lation of the proposed State of Ale
gheny. A number of leading men are
interesting themselves in the move
ment, who are very earnest in adyoca-
ting the formation of the new State
1t is not likely though that the pro
iect will meet with much favor
throughout the State generally, unless
there are stronger reasons for it than
appear on the surface.

THE TRUTH WELL TOLD.

The following pointed and truthful
analysis of our polit ical states as ma
tion we clip from the Washington cor
respondance of the Selinsgrove Times:
The election is over, and all that re-
mains of the political excitement Incl
dent to the campaign will shortly be
transferred to this city. The Repub-
lican party again triumphs. 1t is
needless to further discuss the means
and appliances by which that result
las been accomplished, Or to argue
now upon the Justice of the Democeat-
jc cause. The influences that have en-
c0mpassed it's defeat are we'll known.
The power of the 0ffice-hOlderS, the
corporations and concentrated mOnied
interests Of the country is greater in
the balance than the mere will OF the
people. Practical politics are too
much for sentiment and principle.
The national banks, railroad monopo-
Giles and other special interests reoog-
nized the Republican party as the agent
that has enabled theHa to grind large
profits out the masses, and they hope
for still further benefits from it.
These interests control, by coercion or
other influences, million voters, who,
left TO their inclinations, would vote
the Democratic ticket. Add to this
tie efforts Of an enormous army Of
cfice-holders with the friends they
control and we have a combination
which no simple majority can ever
overthrow. Nobody doubts that ma
iIrity of the American people are to-
day opposed in sentiment to the Re-
publican party, but the most of us will
HOW agree that nothing short OF revo-
luton will eyer loosen its grip upon
power.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, d. c. Nov. 18th, 1880.
There will always be a belief that
Mr.. Barnum, Mr.. HerYilt and others,
who had the management of the late
campaign on the Democratic side, fail
ed to do all that their means and Op-
portunities made p Ossible. We were
defeated where we had right to eX
pect success, and much of the blame
will always remain, in the Democratic
mind, with Mr.. Ba rnum and his aSso-
ciates. But no man of common sense,
unless under great excitement, would
think of accusi ng any of their gentle
men deliberately selling out the cause
they were selected to manage. Meth
er are they the kind Of men likely to do
a dishonorable thing to advance the
cause they ad vocate. IL is, therefore,
a highly dis creditable proceeding on
the part of the Republican managers
in New York to intimate that these
gentlemen were improperly connected
with the alleged Garfield Morey CHI
inese letter. If these Republican
managers have any charge to make
they should make it, Their present
course is such that not only viii the
public acquit MesSrs. Barnam, Her
wilt, Randall and Others Of any I'M
propriety in the matter, but will be-
gin to believe there is some thing more
in connection with the letter than has
been made public or ever will be.
General Garfield telegraphed yeeter-
day that he would be here in ten or
twelve days lie will not take his seat
in the House, but will remain long
enough to close up some private busi
ness. His reception will be nonparti-
san. So will the Inauguration day
parade and ball. 1t is believed, by the
way, that there will be more people in
Washington OH the 4th Of March next
than ever before. The call for accom-
odations is already very great.
General Grant will be here, for the
first time since his term closed, earlyin
December. He, too, will have gen.
eral and nonpartlsan reception.
Between this time and March, it is
evident, great effort will be made,
in Virginia and other States to secure
supporters among conservative men
for the moderate administrator which
it is claimed q General Garfield will give
US. There is much reason to believe
that the General would like to enter
upon his term with strong support
from the South. 1t is not, however
by any means certain that if he should
try to repay confld ence so expressed,
he would be able to do so. Neither is
it certain that he would not. The
party of which he is a member was
able to control Grant and Hayes, both
of whom believe, entered the Presi-
Dental office with as friendly feelings
for the Southern people as Garfield has.
Neither of them, however, bad his ac-
quaintance with public men, knowl-
edge of political affairs, or general in
formation. He may do better than
they. If he should make the attempt
it will be soon enough 1 think, to Or
ganiza in his support.

MURDER.

An old man by the name Of Finkbon-
er, aged so years or more, and residing
some distance in the country back of
Georgetown, Northumberland county,
vas SO badly beaten by his own son, on
the 2Sth of October, that he died three
days thereafter-on Sunday last. The
son is near about sc years Of age. The
old man owned a small farm which he
decided to the son, with the und derstdnd-
ing that the son Was to keep him the
remainder of his days. But soon af-
ter the conveyance of the farm trouble
ensued. The old man made applica-
tion TO court for admission to the poor
house, but the court refused and de-
cided the son must keep him. Last
Thursday whilst Mrs. Finkboner was
away from home, her huS band got the
CID man into the barn and there beat
him with cluD and threw him down
from the barn above. Finkb1b cr was
taken to Sunbury Jail on Friday. 1t
has been said that some other party
had heavy insurance on the old man,
but We do not know if this is correct.

A DEFINITE DENIAL.
General Hancock Denies a Let
ter Imputed to Him.

New YORK, November 1l.-ln an
interview with General Hancock at
Governors island by an Associated
Press reporter this morning, the Gen
eral denied that the letter purporting
to have besn written by him to an ar
my officer at Washington touching
the New York vote was written by
him, and said that he was one Of the
few persons who could not discuss the
presidential election at present without
indelicacy. He also said that Il there
was a letter in existence from him pur-
porting to he of that tepor let it be
produced.

COMING CHANGES IN THE
u. S. SUPREME COURT.
From the w ashingtou Republic.

From the w ashington Republic.
Que Of the most important dntes
the new President will have to per-
form will be the appoin tment of four
Associate Justices of the Supreme
Court of the United States. Justice
Clifford, Notwithstanding the natural
sensitiveuess of his fri ends on the sub
Ject, is mentally and ph ysically incapa-
bic of ever taking h is seat upon the
woolsack again. He is seventy-seVen
years old, and his health il so precari-
Gus that he can hardly be expected to
long survive. Justice Hunts health
is also threatening. He has not been
upon the bench for two years and will
probably never be able to resume his
duties. He is seventy years old. JUS
tice Swayne, although in good health
! is seventy six years old, and it is under
stood that he will retire within year.
Justice Strong is also in good health,
but he is seventy-two yea rs old and 1t
is understood that he, too, will retire
after the 4th of March and take advan-
tage of the full pensio IL allowed by law.
Thus Mr.. Garfield will have the ap-
pointment of four new Judges, res
possibility he ought not to regard
lightly. OF course only Republicans
will be selected and the Court will
then stand eight Repuplica MS to one
Democrat Justice Field }, who Was ap-
pointed as Republica n. One Of these
Judges should come from New Eng
land, one from New YORK, one from
Pennsylvania and one from the South.
Justice Swayne is from Ohio, but
that State has the Chief Justice and
the South has hardly her quota.
