The issue between Messrs. Manning
and Springer in relation to the Min
nesota contested election, Donnelly vs..
Washburn, does not appear to besettled
yet. Notwithstanding Springer's gush-
ing pathos, the reader could not fail to
discover in his speech unmistakeabIe
evidence Of his tergiversations and
double-dealing. He seems TO rely more
upon the sympathies Of the House. than
its sense Of justice. True manhood and
consciousness Of right would have de
manded am investigation from which he
has manifestIy shrunk. Politically his
action may have an important bearing.
1t may decide the Presidential election
if it should devolve upon the House.
4 suspicious feature Of Springer's con
duet is thatit Is approved by the Repub-
iicans, and the press Of that party are all
against Manning whose conduct has
been frank and manly throughout.

OBITUARY..


Barnhard Mann, farmer, of Manor town.
ship, one of the most widely known and
highly respected citizens of Lancaster
county, died this morning at o'clock,
aged about Y years. Some weeks ago,
while attending funeral he contracted a
cold, which settled on his lungs, developed
into pneumonia, and resulted i'll his death.
The community in which he lived all his
life has suffered severe loss in his
death. He was not merely esteemed as
a perfectly honest and upright
man, in conducting his own affairs, but
he was SO implicitly trusted, and such
confidence was placed in his judgment and
probity that he was constantly being called
upon to take charge Of the affairs of others.
trustee, he has perhaps settled up more
estates than any other man in the county,
and in all his many transactions the uni
versal verdict has been "well done, good
and faithful servant He was
man of fair education and
liberal views, but held tenaciously to
his opinions when formed. He was
Democrat of the old school and clung
firmly to the principles Of Jefferson, jack
son and their successors throughout his
life, and though not accustomed to obtrude
his views upon others, he was ever ready
to answer for the faith that was in him.
For more than half a century he was
subscriber to the INTELLIGENCER and
made it a point to call annually at the
Office and pay for his subscription. always
taking the money from the same old "Con-
tinentar' pocket-book, out of which he paid
his first years subscription, and which
had been in his family for more than
hundred years.
He leaves large family of children and
grandchildren to mourn the loss of their
best friend, while the community in which
he lived will largely share their grief. His
funeral will take place on Saturday morn
ing next, the interment being in the pri-
vate cemetry at Central Manor.

WOODS FIRES.



Burned.
Yesterday morning the hills along the
Pequea creek, between Martic Forge and
the Susquehanna river, caught fire from a
spark of locomotive on the Columbia and
Port Deposit railroad. Between 40 and 80
acres were burned over and about 100
cords of wood, belonging to Robert Potts,
of Martic Forge, was consumed. Men
worked hard all day yesterday endeavor-
ing to extinguish the flames but it was of
no avail and the fire was still burning this
morning.
A large woods fire has been raging for
several days past Oh the Welsh mountains,
in the vicinity of the Sorrel Horse hotel,
west of Beartown. The wind blew very
strongly during the fire and it swept over
at least one hundred acres. A large guam
tity of timber was burned and some of the
people residing in the vicinity are said to
have made narrow escapes from being
burned to death.
