Death.

PHILADELPHIA, March 26--Mrs. Catbe-
rine Carson was taken 10 the hospital this
morning In dying condition, suffering
from severe burns. She made deposition
before magistrate accusing her husband
Of wilfulIy burning her by throwing q
lighted coal-ol lamp at her. The husband
was promptly arrested, but denied the
charge, averring that his wife was drunk
and accidentally set herself on fire while
sitting near the stove. The police could
lind no trace OF broken lamp or evidence
Of a struggle, and II seems that the hus-
band, wife, and a party Of friends, who had
all been drinking in the house, are unable
to account for the burning. The matter is
being investigated by the police.

DIVISION OF THE STATE.
THE susQUEIIANNA RIVER TO ne THE DI-
v1DING LINE BErwLEN THE OLD AND
THE NEW ATEs-PoPULAT1oN
AND POLITICAL COMPLEXION
OF EACH,

1t is quietly mooted that there is a scheme
on 70, to divide the state of Pennsylvania
Just who is at the bottom of this move
ment is not stated, and the story is given
for what it is worth. The division plot,
however, is said to have the support Of
number of leading politicians throughout
the commonwealth, The proposed two states
are to be called respectively Pcunsy vania
and Western Pennsylvania The plan
of division, it is further stated, has been
prepared with great care, the following coun-
ties to form that part of the state that will
retain the name it now bears Berks, Brad
ford, Bucks, Carbon, Chester, Columbia,
Dauphin, Delaware, Lancaster l.ackawanna,
Lebanon, Lehigh, Luzarne, Lycoming, Nom
roe, Montgomery, Montour, Northampton,
Northumberland, Philadelphia, Pike,
Schuykil, Sullivan, Susquehanna, Ti)ga,
Wayne and Wyoming.
Under the census now being taken the
population of these twenty-seven counties
is estimated to be :, 100000, leaving an esti-
mated population of 2,30O,OoO for the re-
naming forty counties that are to form the
new state. The parties that have this scheme
in hand have made an estimate of the pO-
li,ical complexion of both commonwealths
They have taken the election for President
in 1876 as the basis. and ten of the counties
named gave a total Republican majority of
81 ,472 leaving net Republican majority of
5, l22 for the new state.

Mr.. English's Popularity.

Some of the republicans are very busy
circulating that our fellow townsman, Hon.
William II. English, is personally unpop.
uar. Men of positive traits of character
and fine business qualities often are, and
yet they make our best and most successful
citizens and public Officers. But it is easier
for the republicans to say that Mr.. English
is unpopular than it will be for them to prove
it. Where is the evidence of unpopulsrity?
Was it in early life, when he was elected to
the legislature in a county opposed to him
in politics? Was it when he was elected to
Congress in district which was then very
close ia politics, by 500 majority, and by an
increasing majority in the same district at
each election, until the majority reached .
600, and this at time when the Democrats
where on the down grade everywhere
else?
Was twhen he was elected principal clerk
and afterwards speaker ofthe House of Rep
resentatives.
Was it when he was elected principal Sec
retary Of the convention that formed the
present constitution of Indiana?
Or, coming down to later times, was il
when, aided by the Eiitor of The People,
he defeated the celebrated coal road project
in this city, carrying every ward against the
most fearful odds in the beginning?
Or, was it only last year when he elected
his son to tie legislature in a republican
district?
No, gentleman republicans, your assertion
in this regard is mere partisan gasconade,
and you do not believe it yourselves, You
know that William H. English WAS never
defeated before the people, and that he gen.
orally succeeds in what he undertakes. AL
your misrepresentation and lies will make
him stronger before the people. If Mr.
English lives he will be the next Vice
President of the United States, and he vii
be credit to the state of Indiana, of which
he is a native, as we'll as favorite son.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. c. July l4lh, 1880.
THE POLITICAL sGTUATIoN--MR. GARFIELD
AsA VISITING sTATEsMAN-HIs PART
IN THE ELECTORAL FRAUD.

II is conceded in political circles here that
the Democrats have much the strongest and
least vulnerable candidate The Republi-
cans have been placed on the defensive from
the first. They have been trying to explain
away the DeGolyer and Credit Mobilier
business to disproye the yerdicts of their
own investigating committees ; and to re-
cant their own damning editorials of only
eight years ago. But the Democrats have
given prominence TO their strongest accusa.
tion. The Credit Mobilier and DeGolyer
matters can be explained on the hypothesis
of innocence, only by the stultitying admis-
sion that their great intellectual, brainy
candidate" is a simpleton. But,great as the
crime Of public pecculation may be, it is
dwarfed by his participation in the crime OF
the century, the crimes of crimes, the count
ing out of the lawfully elected President of
the United States. James A. Garfield was
one Of the conspiratOrs who went to New
Orleans, who cOnspired with the Louisiana
Returning Board, and afterwards voted to
make their conspiracy successful, when he
was Il member of the electoral commission.
Four years ago the Nation stood aghast be-
fore this crime against Republcanism, and
the rights OF man, and hundreds of thous-
ands of men swore that, at the next ptebis-
citua, this crime should be branded that
its perpetrators, sbetors, condoners, and
benefciaries should feel the deep loathing OF
an injured people, Of nations insulted
majesty.
If a single sane man, who believed, four
years ago, that Tilden was elected should
vote for Garfield, think it would prove that
popular government isa failure, and the
elective franchise a too precious trust to be
given to the human race.
When Mr., Garfield accepts purse he
takes trash, but when he nullifes and re-
verses the emphaticaly expressed mandate
of great people the crime is such, alas as
no punishment can compass. Its enormity
csn be fully appreciated only by those who
know how slowly, through ages Of night and
blood, and thross of hoping, despairing evo-
luton, the rights Of man have attained the
yindication of the ballot box.
