ELECTION FRAUDS IN PHILADELPHIA, Pa
Awholesale scheme of fraudulent registration
has been discovered in the Fourth and Fifth
wards of Philadelphia. Thirty men had been
registered asvoters at a lodging house on Penn
street, which contains only saloon and three
bedrooms. Out of the thirty names regis
tered only two were actual residents. An
other house, where only six names were regis
tered last year, is now set down as the residence
of thirty six voters. Numerous other places
have been investigated, with similar results.
Two United States supervisors have already
been arrested BY order Of the United States
District Attorney Valentine to answer the
charge of illegal registration.

Two hundred bushels of wheat was re-
Gently sold at Oxford, Chester county, Pa.
at FIVE dollars per bushel. 1t was sold by
an agent who travelled through that region
since harvest, and sold it for seed wheat
under the name of Russian Golden
Wheat, grown in New York, which yielded
so bushels per acre. The whole thing
sounds like another fraud upon farmers.

An English Victory.


On Tuesday last the cable reported that SIR
Garnet Wolseley had ordered general ad-
vance on Arabi's works at Tel-el- Kebir. The
same evening the entire British force, with
the exception of small body left in charge
of the encampment at Kassasin lock, took
up the line of march for Tel-el-Kebir on the
Ismailia and Cairo Railroad, close alongside
the parallel line of M. de Lesseps' fresh water
canal and about twelve miles distant from
Kassasin lock. The object of the night march
was that the men should be within easy strlk-
ing distance of Arabi's position by break of
day, at which time the assault upon his works
was to be made. The movement seems to
have been completely successful. The at
tack was begun by dawn and the engagement
was very brief The main attack was on
Arabi's left flank, and under cover of the
guns of the heavy artillery the troops advanc-
ed and carried Tel-el-Kebir with rush.
The time occupied in close fighting does not
appear to have lasted more than 20 minutes;
but that it was sharp, though short, is evident
from the fact that "many officers" are includ-
ed in the report of the killed and wounded.
The brunt of the action was borne by the
Highland Brigade. The probable British loss
is put at only tive hundred the Egyptian loss
in killed alone at two thousand, which, if true,
would indicate massacre rather than battle,
and that the slaughter must have been princi-
pally of the fugitives as they were pursued
north and south of the fresh water canal by
the Indian cavalry on one side of it and by
the British cavalry on the other. Besides
the actual Egyptian loss in killed and wound
ed, forty guns and large number of prison
ers are said to have been taken.
The War Over.
The war in Egypt is over, and Cairo and
efr-el-Dwar are in the hands of the British.
Arab Pasha is in Cairo, virtual prisoner.
When he entered Cairo. after his defeat, al
Tel-el- Kebir, the inhabitants stoned him.
Deputations have arrived in Alexandria from
Cairo rendering the submission of the people
to the Khedive. The Sultan of Turkey has
congratulated General Wolseley and requested
him not to occupy any more Egyptian towns.

Don't scOwl; it spoils faces. Before
you know it your forehead will resemble
small railroad map. There is a grand
trunk line Eow from your cowlick to the
edge OF your nose, intersected by paral-
lei lines running east and west, With
curves arching your eyebrows; and oh.
how much older you look for it. Scowl-
ing IS habit that steals upon us I'M
awares. We frown when the light is too
strong, and when it is too weak. We
tie our brows into knot when we are
thinking, and knit them even more
tightly when We can not think. There is
no denying that there are plenty of things
to sco"l about. The baby in the cradle
frowns when something fails to suit.
The little fodder who has sugar on his
bread and butter tells his troubles in the
same way when You leave off the sugar.
"Cross" we say about the children, and
worried to death" about the old folks.
and as for ourselves, we can't help it.
Butwe must. Its reflex influence makes
others unhappy; for face answereth I'M
to face in life as well as in water. 1t
bellies our religion We should possess
our souls i'll such peace that it will re-
fleet itself in placid countenances. II
your forehead is ridged with wrinkles
before forty, what will it be at seventy?
There is one consoling thought about
these marks of time and trouble-the
death angel always grasses them. Even
the extremely aged in death often wear
a smooth and peaceful brow, thus leav-
ing our last memories of them calm and
tranquil. But our business is with life.
Scowling is kind of silent scolding.
For PHYS sake let us take sad iron or a
glad iron, or some smoothing tool of
some sort, and straigten these creases
out Of our faces before they become in
dclibly engrayen upon our visage.

Science and Imagination.

Science can never extinguish the i'm
agination nor that thirst which human
nature feels for something more juicy
than facts are apt to be. think that as
long as the human race lasts, wonder
and delight in certain things which, per
haps, are not useful, and which are GER
tainly hot scientific, will be born into
the world with every child Wonder,
which is the raw material of the magma
ton, will exist as long as the race exists.
/ do not believe that imaginative litera-
ture will ever become n thing of the
past. Goethe, in the 'Walpurgis Nacht,
makes one of the characters say to the
wild shapes that are dancing around
him: You still there? Why, this is
something beyond belief. Disappear,
all of you. The light, SO to speak, had
been let in, but the figures persisted
and would not disappear. flames Rus
