A CORRESPONDENCE VIEWS on THE LATE
ACTION OF THE BERKELEY srArEsMAx.
EDITOR New DOMINION:
The index, OF last week, has very
sensible article written by q Demo
crat showing that 1t is the amount
to be raised by taxation, and pot the
valuations or kind Of property that
increased or decreased taxes; and
that where valuations were uniform,
all this hnb-b ub was nonsense-for
IL the tax was not paid on one kind
of.property IL would have TO be on
another.
The article referred TO calls Ito
mind the granger business In Belike-
ley county and the part taken
therein by certain prominent Dem
Ocrats.
This attack by the Usage OF Bcrke-
ley" on his successful rival of four
years ago is-not what We expected
OF the man, and brings its author
down from his place as Statesman
to the rank Of demagogues
Without endorsing Or defending
Gov. jackson, we think the action
Of the great defeated comes with bad
grace at this time, and will BE- con-
strued, or misconstrued, to mean .
bid for popularity with the Repnbli-
can party. In this is the mistake.
If any one expects votes from that
party he mist put on the whole armOr
and wave his CORY garment. Merely
Mahoneizing will not do in the fu-
ture. They have had enough Of that.
The old map- eloquent may be
toadied 4 little just now, and his
name written Hon. G. j. instead OF
Charles Jecmes, ~ formerly; but
after all, he will find that this little
episode has gained him nothing from
those seeking the overthrow Of De-
mocracy, and will leave had odor
in the house OF bis friends. We would
learn Lessons Of wisdom from the
past, and we have no sympathy With
those who attempt to disorganixe the
party. We lived under Republican
rule once and have no great desire
to return again thereto.

ANOTHER FAYETTE County MURDER
A Son SHOOTS HIS FATHER IN CoLD
BLOOD. Another murder has been
added to the catalogue of Fayette
county crimes. Saturday night be-
tween eleven and twelve o'clock AL
pheus Wilson, a man about go years
Of age residing near Cool Spring, in
North Union township, was shot and
killed by his son Frank, young man
about % years Of age. The circum-
stances connected with the sad affair
are as follows: Saturday was pay
day at the Stewart Iron Company's
Works, where the unfortunate man
and his son had been at work. After
receiving The amount due them for
work, Alpheus and his son came to
Uniontown, and before leaving both
became somewhat intoxicated. The
father arrived at home early in the
evening, but his son did not get home
until near eleven o'clock at night
Upon going into the room he found
his sister had not retired yet, and in
quired what she was doing up so late
She said that she was watching her
father who was at that time lying on
the floor asleep. Frank then asked
his father what he was lying there
for and wanted to know why he did
not go to bed. After some words he
left the room and went out.
In few minutes he again went
into the room where his father was
lying and rousing him up they took
several drinks together. They were
both somewhat under the influence
Of liquor, and there were some un-
pleasant words passed between them.
The father finally ordered his son to
leave the room which he did, but in
a few minutes came to the door and
said to his father. "Old man if you
want anything Of me come on and
we'll have it out" The old man then
staggered to his feet, and just about
the time he got Strengthened up,
Frank who was still standing in the
door, raised revolver which he then
had in his hand and fred the fatal
shot. The ball entered his fathers
head directly under the left eyebrow,
and he immediately sank to the floor
and death ensued in about twenty
minutes.
The murderer was arrested and
lodged in Jail at Uniontown.- Union

POLITICAL.

The republican mass convention at
| Point Pleasant, W. Va, declared in favor
| of Blaine and Lincoln.
The first republican county conven-
lions in Iowa this year were held in Bre-
mer and Clinton counties, and delegates in
favor of Blaine for president were chosen
in both counties.
The directors of the Louisville board
of trade have endorsed the action OF the
New York chamber Of commerce, asking
congress to stop the coinage of silver dol
lars.
The result of the republican city eau
cuses at WATERFOWL, n. Y, make that
congressional district for Blaine.
Democrats of Pennsylvania, in state
convention, declared in favor of Samuel j.
Randall for president.
The greenback national convention
has been postponed till June I'd. The con-
vention was to have been held ON May 2Sth.
The Thirty-second IN. W congress
sional district republican convention elected
James d. Warren. and Josiah Jewett dele
gates to the national convention. Resou-
lions were adopted endorsing Arthur's ad-
ministration and commencing him for re-
election.
A correspondent gives the following
summary of presidential preferences of the
delegates from Missouri to the republican
national conventions Blaine IL, Arthur 8,
Logan 7, Edmunds 5. None Of the dele
gates are strongly pronounced in their
preferences, however, and will doubtless
be governed largely by the views Of dele
gates from republican states.
The republican conference of the
Fourteenth congressional district met at
Harrisburg, Pa, and selected delegates to
Chicago. They were required to sign a
pledge to support Blaine long before the
convention.
Republicans of the Ninth congress
sional district at Gilman, ILL.,, renominated
Lewis E. Payson for congress.
The fight in the congressional dis
tricts embraced in Chicago aud Cook coun-
ty resulted in the defeat of Logan in three
out Of four.
The republican convention of the
Fourteenth IN. " congressional district
elected Collector VIM. X. Robertson and
Assembiyman James w. Hustled delegates
to Chicago. The delegates are uninstruct-
ed. A motion was made that Blaine was
the choice of the convention, but substi-
tute setting forth that any good republican
was the choice Of the convention was car
ried.

$4,000 Gone !

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.-The Chroni-
Gle publishes in substance the follow
ing marvel. Captain w. F. Swasey,
the oldest pioneer of the coast. makes
a statement of the intense suffering of
his friend Colonel D. j. Williamson,
an army officer of distinction, and an
ex-U. S. consul, who was attacked in
the winter of 1862 with violent rheu-
matism. So great was his agony in
after years, he became helpless Grip
pie, and after trying numberless rene
dies, the baths of other countries and
spending fortune of $4,000, the dis
ease seemed to assume more virulent
type. Finally, he was persuaded to try
St. Jacobs Oil, the great conqueror of
pain. 1t worked a miracle of cure. In
letter to the Chronicle he confirms
Capt. Swseey's statement and adds:
81 cheerfully give my unqualified at
testation to the truthfulness of the
statement, because feel perfectly GER
tam that knowledge of my cure by
St. Jacobs Oil, will prove the means Of
relieving hundred of sufferers

Emerson and Phillips.

Boston Letter TO Hartford Oourant.
Mild man rs Ralph Waldo Emer-
son was, he resented Wendell Phillips
attacks upon personal character with a
feeling such as was shown by few of
his contemporaries. Mr.. Phillips and
Mr.. Emerson being both Boston boys,
and in the Latin school at the same
time, and also sympathizing with each
other in the early days OF the anti
slavery, were on Iathei intimate terms
of intercourse through much of their
lives. The placid philosopher was
probably led to wonder at the vehe-
mence of manner of Mr.. Phillips on
more than one occasion. Mr.. Emerson
never had controversies with anyone
himself. He simply Stunned the soci-
ETY. of those who were not congenial.
You may remember his quiet remark
when he was once represented by q
clergyman of the orthodox faith as the
incarceration of evil because of his lack
of agreement with evangelical sects in
his theological views. "Our friend
seems very earnest man," he is re-
ported to have said. But Mr.. Emerson
did break with Mr.. Phillips. The lat
ter went to Concord in one of the But
Ter campaigns, and uttered a violent
philippe against Judge Hoar. Emer-
son heard it, and after the address was
over, when Mr.. Phillips approached
him to take his hand rs usual, it was
declined with dignity and frmness.
There was never any intercourse be-
tween the two men after that. They
met not frequently, but when they were
thrown into the same company Mr..
Emerson declined all intercourse with
one who, he said, had been so unfair
and unjust in his treatment of his friend
Judge Hoar. His language was still
stronger than this, but perhaps it is
not gracious to quote it mt the present
time.
