i Nihilism is not all that the people of Russia have to contend with. Just now the atten- i tion of the press and society in all the large towns is concentrated on the daily announce ments of bank failures, peculation, embez- element, frauds and robberies of every kind. Scarcely day passes without the news of some bank having been found insolvent or in critical condition, or of some cashier of a government institution or benevolent sccie- ty having appropriated the funds and E'cooked" the accounts. The Municipal bank of Skopin, in the province of Riazan, has failed for over $9, ,OOO, 900. It is legal point whether in this instance the whole Of the in habitants, through their pal euthori- ties, will not be held responsible. 1t is cal culated that the embezzements and rob- berries, both private and official, have this year amounted to over $16, ,750,OO0
 There has been trouble enough in Maine about defective ballots, defective returns, carelessness in voting, etc., but the voters do not appear to have profited by the lessons they have had. in that State at the recent election there were but eight candidates for Congress nominated by the two leading par. ties, but not less than seventy different names we're voted by electors who intended to vote only for the regular candidates. Seven hundred and seventy. eight persons voted for Thomas H. Murch, meaning to vote for Thompson H. Murch; 615 voters voted for Nelson Dingley when the only Dingley who was candidate was Nelson, ir. ; other voters put in ballot for Mir. Miiligan, when they intended that their ballots should be counted for Seth L. Miliken still others voted for ''Thombs" Reed, when it was their intention to vote for Thomas B. Reed.

 Gents Upon the recommenda- ton of a friend I tried BRowN's IRON BIrTERs as a tonic and re- storative for my daughter, whom was thoroughly convinced was wasting away with Consumption. Having lost three daughters by the terrible disease, under the care of eminent physicians, I was 10th to believe that anything could arrest the progress of the disease, but, to my great surprise, before my daugh- ter had taken one bottle of BRowN'S IRON BrTTERs, she began to mend and now is quite restored to former health. A fifth daughter began to show signs of Consumption, and when the physician was consulted he quickly said "Tonics were re- quired;" and when informed that the elder sister was taking BROWNS IRON BITTERs, responded "that is good tonic, take it.

 TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of life, it circulates through every part of the body, and unless it is pure and rich, good health is impossible. If disease has entered the system the ouLy sure and quick way to drive it out is to purify and enrich the blood.
 These simple facts are well known, and the highest medical authorities agree that nOtAfng but iron will restore the blood to its natural condition and also that all the iron preparations hitherto made blacken the teeth, cause head ache, and are otherwise injurious.
 BROWNS IRON BITTERs will thor oughly and quickly assimilate with the blood, purifying and strengthen ing it, and thus drive disease from any part of the system, and it will n0t blacken the teeth, cause head ache or constipation, and is posi- lively uot injurious.

 A whole man or woman is worth about $5, 900, according to numerous verdiots in cases of death by railroad accident, etc. The value of a finger tip has just been established by a Brooklyn jury. Miss Agnes Sanger sued the owners of the factory where she was employed for the loss of the extreme tip of one of her fingers. She asked for $1O, 900 damages, but the jury. after grave delibera- tion, decided that she was only damaged $150 worth.
 There appears to be some doubt as to who will be the legal Governor of the State of Pennsylvania between the 16th and Fist of next January. The constitution says the Governor shall hold office for -four years from the third Tuesday of January next suc- ceeding his election" Governor Hoyt, un- der this law, was inaugurated on the Fist of
 January, 1879, and his four years will not expire until January 21st, 1883 But under
 the same rule Governor Pattison must be
 inaugurated on the 1Gth of January next, five days before the term of his predecessor will 1 legally expire. This condition of affairs has
 existed ever since 179o, but custom has de-
 cided that the term of one Governor expires 1 when his successor has qualified.

A recent decision by a Minnesota court is of interest to tenants. The owner of 8 build ing in Minneapolis let the various stories of it to different persons. As may be supposed, neither tenant hired the root, and nothing was said in the brief, somewhat informal agree ments made about the duty of keeping the roof in repair. In course of time the roof grew leaky, no one repaired it, a rain storm occurred, and water percolated through the walls and floors and drenched and ruined tho stock of goods of the tenant of the ground floor, dealer in freq and ammunition. He sued the owner of tle building for dam ages. But the court held that tho owner and general landlord is not bound, even where the building IS let in portions, to make re pairs unless he has agreed to do so or the structure is becoming a nuisance.
 It Is little curious that the manufacture of spurious butter should make the price of the genuine article from one to three cents g pound more at Chicago than at Boston or New York. The explanation is that at Chi cago, the headquarters of the bogus manu facture, creamery butter is largely used in making what is known as creamery butterine the process being to mix lard thoroughly pu | rified and deodorized, with 33b per cent oi the best creamery butter, into which it ie churned. This stuff is packed in any ] manner desired, and wholesales at 24 or 25 cents pound.

PITTSBURG, August 14.-According to in
telligence from Youngstown, something is
going to happen in iron circles, in the Ma
hOning Valley, within the next forty-eight
hours. Brown, Bonnet & Co, the largest
mill owners in that district, whose weekly
payroll will foot up to twenty-seven thou

workmen that they would be taken back at
old rates provided they reported for duty
Immediately. If this offer did not suit,
they, the firm, would start up with nom
union men.
A district convention was immediately
called to consider the prospects. 1t is
understood that the men in that district
consider that by the action of the recent
Amalgsmated Convention, held in Chicago,
they have the right to act independently of
the Pittsburgh District, and agreed to sub
NIT proposition to the firm that if six
dollars per ton was finally settled upon at
Pittsburgh, they were to receive that
amount, and if the old scale was accepted
they would be governed by it.
The convention adjourned until to-mor-
row, and awaits the arrival of President
Jarrett.

ed Jail Delivery at Toledo.


TOLEDO o., August l4.-Yesterday after
noon at three o'clock most desperate eff
fort was made to break Jail in this city. At
that hour a number of ladies who hold Sun
day services at the Jail were just entering.
In following the usual custom, Deputy
Sheriff Edgar unlocked the first door and
stepped inside to let the ladies in. The
prisoners who were in the conspiracy
had sawed the iron bar which
held the inner door, and, be-
fore the outside door could be
locked, they threw the inner one open and
made rush for liberty. There were six.
teen in the gang, and included the worst
prisoners in the Jail. They were led by
Clark, the Chicago desperado. who several
closely backing him up were two burly
beck, who stood near the outer door, hastily
drew a small Jimmy from his hip pocket
and began operations. Knocking two men
down, they obstructed the passage for o
moment
In the meantime the prisoners were at
work with pepper and salt, aad made the
eyes of the officers suffer. The fight was
a most desperate one for about three min
utes. officer Edgar fired one shot at
negro, and just grazed the top of his head.
The Sheriff continued to do lively work
with his jimmy, and the two finally drove
the prisoners back and locked the door.
The iron bars had been sawed in two by a
saw made from q corset-steel conveyed to
the prisoners through some of their rela-
tives.

iSDeciGl TO the Register.

sOnal.
Special TO the Register.
FAIRMoNT. w. Va, August 1.-THE out
come of the Keyser Convention has been
subject of some speculation here, the ORR
GIN of which is not, however, difficult to
ascertain. The REGISTER may be interest
ed to know the prevailing sentiment here
as regards the action of that body.
The Democracy of Marion do not express
much surprise that there were two bitterly
opposite factions in the convention, nor is
the result at all different from that wished
for by the Democracy of the county, nor
even unexpected. But the Republican ele.
ment, whether sincere or not, affect great
jubilaticn, pretending to believe their day
of deliyerance from Borboun representa-.
ton is at hand, in this district. They even
90 so far as to name Rev. DR.. Bolton, OF
Palatine, this county, as the mighty man
of valor, who shall unhorse the Democratic
aspirant, and warm his seat in the Forty
eighth Congress.
A prominent Republican was heard to
remark that whereas, heretofore their par
ty could not get candidate, now they all
wanted to be candidates.
That there is slight division OF senti-
ment among the Democracy, there can be
no doubt; but the impression among those
best entitled to know, is, that the breach
will be healed, and that old Marion will
roll up her usual Democratic majority for
Judge Hoge, in whom the Marion Democ.
racy recognize the regular nominee Of the
Convention.
David O'BSien, a reckless Irishman, is re-
ported to have been killed near Farming
ton, in this county, Saturday afternoon.
The hearing of Felix o. Hawkins, for at
tempting to Kill David II. Lowman, took
place before Justice Christy on Saturday,
and the prisoner was held to appear at the
November term of Circuit Court.
Judge Fleming has gone to Morgan
county to hold term of Judge Faulkners
Court, at Berkeley Springs.
The appearance of the first SUNDAY
REGISTER was hailed by Marion, yesterday,
who hereby tenders her respectful congrat-
ulations.
