TOFFICIAL PAPER. ]
Msrday. November %, 1881

Indications from Pennsylvania show thai
politics in that state win continue to grow
more and more interesting. The election
next year is for Il Governor, Lieutenant
Governor, Secretary of Internal Affairs
Justice OF the Supreme Court, 25 State
Senators for four years, POI members OF
Assembly for two years, 81 members OF
Congress, and important local officers in
every county in the State.
The fight for Governor and other state
officers, and for members of the Senate and
House, viii be the most holly contested
ever known in Pennsylvania, both as re-
CARDS the nomination as well as the elec-
ton of these officers; and this applies as
well to the democrats as to the republi-
cans.
The twenty-five State Senators to be
elected will have vote for United States
Senator in January. 1885, and in republi-
can districts the most cxtraol binary efforts
will be Rade by the friends and opponents
of Senator Cameron to nominate or to de
feat the nomination of candidates friendly
to him. In the democratic districts the
friends of Senator Wallace will make super
human efforts to place the most trusted Oh
Wallace men in nomination, while the OPP
ponents OF Mr.. Wallace will be quite as
earnest in their determination that only
the most positive and unfaltering Of anti
Wallace Senators shall be nominated.
The fight on the part Of the republicans
for state officers has not sufficiently devel-
oped yet to Indicate whom the stalwarts
will put forward as their candidate for
Governor, but at present they are trying to
elect delegates under banner of reform
on which Is painted in glowing colors the
names of Galusha A. Grow for Governor
and Joseph L. Caven of Philadelphia for
Secretary of Internal Affairs. 1t is quite
probable that if the name of Grow falls toe
fatty upon Independents ears the name OF
Chas. s. Wolfe viii be substituted, for the
purpose of securing delegates for Tom
Cooper of Media In the election oil
reform delegates Col Quay is determined
to keep ahead of such reformers as Wolfe,
Mckee, Mapes, Garrett ct al, and it is
quite probable that he will be successful.
The contest for Governor on the demo
cratic side is between Senator Wallace and
Col Hopkins of Pittsburgh, with Robt e.
Pattison, City Comptroller of Philadelphia,
pegging along as compromise candi-
date. The desire is general among repub-
licans that Wallace should be the demo
cratic candidate; but whether it is Wallace
Or Hopkins, either will doubtless be cut by
the friends of the other to the extent OF
many thousand votes. This is the way
the democrats invariably conduct their
campaigns for Governor in Pennsylvania.

The new and elegant three masted
schooner David w. Hunt, commanded by
Captain Colcord, arrived here from Bath,
Me-, on Saturday morning with a cargo Of
ice to the Knickerbocker Ice Company.
The David W. Hunt was built at Bath by
Messrs Goss & Sawyer for Messrs. b. W. &
Fl. w. Morse & Co., for the lumber
trade, and IS to run between this
port and Bath. She has a carrying
capacity of 34S tons; her length is 14S feet
over all, l35 feet keel, is 81 feet wide, and
her hold has depth of 10 feet; her masts
are pieced and are made of choice hard
pine instead of soft pine, which Is generally
used, and are securely bcund with iron
bands. She is also supplied with a new
patent capstan windlass (ouly five of which,
we are Informed, are in use at present.,
which gives her greater power with less
labor. She brought out 472 tons of ice, and
is capable of carrying 275, 600 feet of lumber.
The Hunt was launched on The 3lst of
May and cost $40 900, and her n liden trip

Death ofRev. p. Dufau,

This distinguished prelate OF the Catholic
Church died at the st. Joseph's Infrmsry
early yesterday morning after a brief Ill
ness. Father Dufau was at one time Vicar
General, under Bishop Verot, when the lat
ter was Bishop of the Catholic Diocese
OF GeOrgis, and removed
with him to Florida when he was made
Bishop of that State, occupying the same
position there. He was a native of France,
and was a resident of the South for nearly a
quarter Of a century. He was a man of
great piety and benevOlence, and was
greatly beloved and esteemed by the entire
congregation and by our citizens generally
with whom he was acquainted. He came
to Savannah recently en- route to France
for the benefit of his health, which
was quite feeble, we learn, when his
indispOsitiOn increased, and he was com
PEELED to 90 to the infrmary. The deceased
was about fifty-five years of age, and was
quite venerable in appearance.

Yesterday was the day appointed in
Mother SYMPTOMS wonderful prophecy for
the termination Of all mundane things and
the destruction of the world. All OF her
other prophecies have been verified, and
there was some anxiety on the score of the
last and most important. But the 18th has
passed, and, in the language of Rev. JAS
per, the "Sun continueth to move. "
Professor VennOr, however, is to be con
graduated upon the accuracy OF his prog
nostication. The day opened very suliry
and oppressive; at noon the heat was per
fectly intense; towards three O'Clock the
distant muttering Of thunder was heard
and a succession of vivid flashes of light
ming gave token OF the coming shower
About four O'Clock rain began to fall, and
continued until nearly seven O'Clock, greatly
refreshing the parched earth The TEN
peratUre after dark was quite pleasant and 8
good breeze sprang up from the Southwest
While the rain was not very heavy, it wa:
very acceptable not only to truck gardeners
but to the town folks. The crops of the
latter have been greatly retarded by the
drought. and, had it continued, they would
have suffered considerable loss. Vegeta
ton generally was benefited.

Color Kindness.


The inquiries being made into the nature
and extent Of color blindness are being
watched with great interest. The evils
and dangers arising from It were scarcely
suspected few years ago, much less
known. 1t cannot of course be proved
now, but It is nevertheless certain, that
many railway and shipping accidents can be
attributed to color blindness as. a primary
cause. Now, however, many railway
corporations have made rules for the ex-
animation of employees in order TO prevent
those found to be color blind from being
placed in situations where they would have
TO distinguish signals by color; and the
United States Steamboat Inspectors refuse
licenses to pilots found to be color blind.
But these only afford slight precautions.
The extent of the danger to be
guarded against demands more and better
means of protection. Interest in the scien-
tific aud pathological views is not so great
as in the relation which the subject bears
to the safety of the travelling public. The
dangers arising from color blindness, in
those who arc employed in any situation
where safety depends upon their abili-
ty to distinguish colors, are apparent.
1t needs no argument TO show that
if engineers or pilots are to be guided by
certain coloTs and yet are unable to dstin-
guish them, they should be discharged as
incompetent. They might as well be blind
The colcrs convey no meaning to them, and
owing to their defect In vision, lives are i'm
periled. A man unable to read and walking
toward an unsafe place past signal with
the word danger painted on it. might
as easily expect to escape injury.
This fact has been well demon
5trated lately in the case of the steam
ship City of Austin. wrecked at Fernandina,
Fla, through the inability of her pilot to
distinguish between the colors red and
black. This man had never been examined
for color blindness. The Florida Pilot
Commissioners do not enforce such an ex-
animation, but they and all other Pilot
Commissioners should do so. The City of
Austin case is but one instance. 1t serves
to show that there can be no safety where
men afflicted with color blindness are en-
ployed ~ Maritime Register.

A had DarkeY.

Ben Arkwright is apparently bad dar-
key, and has by his evil passion at last got
himself into trouble. 1t appears that Ben
has stepfather named Reuben Thompson,
living on the Ogeechee road, about seven
miles from the city, with whom he is not on
very good terms. He was prowling around
the old mans place on Friday, when he
was ordered away, but refused to leave, and,
after abusing Reuben, assaulted him in
vigorous STYLE. He was arrested and brought
to the city Saturday morning, and was COM
mitted to Jail by Magistrate Waring Russell,
Jr., for appearance before the City Court.
After his arrest it was ascertained that Ben
had been guilty of an ugly assault on Isaiah
Allen, colored, on the 18th inst, and a sec
oud charge Of assault and battery was en-
tered up against him.

Lively Contest In ETOsPSCes
Saturday afternoon between one and two
O'Clock two young colored boys. aged about
seven and eleven, who have been In the
habit Of carrying meals to some
of the hands IN the machine shop
of Mr.. John w. lyman, on the occasion
of their usual visit fingered ABOUT the place
and began to raise disturbance. 1ney
two of the apprentices secured small
street hose. used about the yard, and
souirted some water on them. ms IN
duced the little rascals to leave, and moth
ing more was thought of the matter, which
was regarded as amusing and trivial. Later
in the Afternoon the young apprentices were
surprised by a visit from a colored man, who
represented himself as a constable, and
stated that he had come to arrest them.
They did not believe his represen-
tatiOns, and refused to go, when
he departed, and shortly afterwards con-
stable, whose name we did not learn, ap-
peared with a warrant, charging the Youn g
men with assault and battery. 1t seems
that the little colored boys, doubtless insti-
gated by some parties, In some way had
two warrants issued, one peace warrant,
the other for assault and battery. One of
the young men. VIM. Herman, was arrested
and was required to give bond in the sum OF
$500 for his appearance, Mr.. lyman be-
coming his security. The other young man,
who had left the place before the arrival of
the constable, had not been arrested at last
accounts.
The costs, we are informed, amount to
81, and as the young man is only receiving
apprentice wages, the payment OF such a
sum would be difficult. Mr.. lyman, their
employer, is very indignant at the proceed
ings, and has employed lawyer with the
intention of having a thorough investiga-
ton, and ascertaining II the ends
of Justice demand that warrants should be
issued on such trivial grounds, on the aft
davits of mere lads. The colored boys were
annoying those in the shop, and refused to
leave when ordered and were not in the least
injured by the little stream of water used to
eject them. 1t is understood that full
investigation will be had, and tina.
the Solicitor General has been notified. The
above are the facts as we have received
them, and they would seem to indicate no
justification for the issuance Of the warrants,
but until the hearing, when further particu-
lars may be developed, we forbear COM

A Mean Thief.

William Mitchell, colored loafer, who is
addicted to petty stealing, was arrested yes
terday afternoon, about half past twelve
o'clock, by Policeman Muse, on the charge
Of stealing. 1t appears that William meaD-
dered along the bank of the canal yesterday
morning, and came upon place where some
colored men were bathing. Their shoes aud
clothing were lying on the bank, and VIII
liam, taking advantage of the inability
of the parties in the water to pursue
him, grabbed up the articles aud started
to run. Fortunately be was seen by some
others who were in trim for a race, and he
was soon oveIhauled, and Policeman Muse
got bis clutches on him and waltzed him
off to the barracks. IL was sscertained that
William was guilty of another act of the
same offense. On Saturday night, about
eight O'Clock, seeing favorable opportuni-
tY to steal in the Market, he snatched up a
coat belonging to a colored man and
skipped from the building. It is probable
William will have to go before the City
Court.
