that Lees original plan was to march df-
rect TO Harrisburg, where the army was
to be concentrated, and twas with this
understanding that Stuart separated nom
his main army, and moved drought
Hanover towards Carlisle.
Col. swallow will fowllow this article
by others describing the Battleof Gettys-
burg and his story is certain t2 attract
genera attention North and South, as 1t
most interesting. contribution to war
history. The movements of the various
commands are followed with great care
and are described with accurate lucldity
and clear comprehension of the apparent
purpose of the commanders, What Col.
Swallow has to say concerning the
course of Gent. j. L b, Stuart, and the
manner IN which he executed the orders

attention; MS accepting the position he
assumes, the responsibility for the fail

We desire to again call the atten-
ton of the Court of Claims to the
fact that the people of Lawrence
county, the tax payers, desire an
exhibit ofthe financial condition Of
the county. 1t is not enough to say
that a certain amount has been col
lected and certain amount paid
put. The people want to know how
much has heen paid into the road
fund, the bridge fund and the COM
mon school fund, and they want to
know how, when and to whom this
money was paid. 1t is asserted
with what degree Of CORRECTNESS we
do not know, that the county was
scarcely ever SO deeply in debt. i
this is true, and the debt was Great
ed in building roads and bridges
nobody should complain, and We
feel warranted in saying that if it is
shown in facts and figures, as We
have no doubt it can be shown, that
the money expended and the bonds
issued went for the purposes men
toned, there will be little complaint
But the exhibit must be made,

The Democratic party Of this
Congressional district, in common
with the party at large, has been
afflicted with a surplus of great
men at least with men who imag-
inc themselves great, and they
cause as much trouble and disaster
as If they really were great. The
bother Is that hey bring confusion
to theirown side and not to the en-
envy. The Importance and great
ness of these embryo statesmen
would not be, SO pestiferous and ru-
nous to their party if they would
curb their aspirations and seek on
'ly for the positions which thew are
qualified to- Fill. But no, every
mothers son of them wants to go to
Congress. In every county in this
district there are at least two, and
in some counties there are half a
dozen, men who imagine they can
beat any Republican who may be a
candidate, and who vainly think
that in comparison with them such
men as Clay, Crittenden and Brock
enridge sink into insignificance.
Biennially these wonderfully great
men come to the front as candidates
for Congress. Biennially one Of
them succeeds, through his persist
ency and the sore-headedness Of
somebody else, in obtaining the
nomination, and biennially he is
defeated-just as be deserves to be-
We.had hopes that, learning O
valuable lesson from the teachings
of past campaigns, the Democratic
party of this district would sit down
with weight and emphasis on all fu
ture tenth-rate candidates for Con
gross. We believed that the party
managerssnd fuglemen would have
learned by this time the ruinous fol
ly of attempting to put an eight BY
ten man into twenty by thirty
place. If such is their intention
now is the time to begin the work

there is not pne who could not be
defeated by o decent Republican.
There are men, however, in this DIS
trict who have carried the banner
OF the party tc 'ictcry, and there are
men who can lead us to triumph
again. Why are these men not
again in the arenas 1t is because
they will not descend to the dirt and
trickery which of late years have
characterized the struggle for the
nomination. They will not spend
the two years salary of a Congress
man, simply to obtain the nomlna-
ton and then run the risk ofdeieat.
The News wants these gentlemen

Morning of the 9th of October.
Action was taken and resolutions
passed as follows
WHEREAS: For the third time
within two years and six months
our little town has been visited

confidence of Insurance Compa-
MES, under whose protection we
have heretofore enjoyed large in
demnity against losses and
WHEREAS, The circumstances I'M
der which, in each instance, these
several CONGREGATIONS occurred,
have been such as to point to the
work of incendiary, and necessarily
produce on the part of our citizen

gard to their property and their
homes therefore
Resolved list. That wa hereby
pledge ourselves to use all lawful
and honorable means to discover
the cause of these disasters, and il
any person be found guilty in the
matter, to have such one convict

will afford the Companies jnteres-
ted in the present losses every pos
sible facility to the fullest and
most satisfactory investigation Of

that person who has no capital to

WHAT WILL START BUSINESS. For
three years, up to the present, the
country has been consuming many
things which must be replaced sooner
or later. Though prices have been
and are, ridiculously low for most ar
ticles of iron and steel, yet sales have
not thereby been improved. There
has been very general disposition to
permit things to go toward wreck and
ruin. But it should be taken into
consideration that this condition is
least likely to last. Those who have
deferred painting their houses must
ultimately paint them, and when the
time shall be forced upon them, all
the more paint will be required for the
same numberof houses because of the
delay, and there will be a large addi-
ton to the usual yearly number. The
same is true of numerous other pro-
ducts. The longer the demand is
postponed the greater it will be when
it comes.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,
Aug. 81, 1885.

1t is now expected that the Presi
dent will return to Washington about
the ninth of September. The White
House is in readiness for his recep.
ton and he will doubtless be able tc
enjoy his luxurious appointments by
comparison with the fishing camp in
which he has so recently lived.
1t is not known when Miss Cleve-
land will return, but probably not be-
fore the first of November. The talk
of her appointment to the Presidency
of Vassar College has been revived,
and her acceptance of the position is
at last a possibility.
e Advices from Secretary Whitney
state that he will return to Washing
ton the latter part of next week in Or
der to dispose of the accumulation of
business on his desk. He proposes
to pay a great deal of attention to
the preparation of estimates of ap-
preparations for the support of the
Navy Department for the next fiscal
year, and instructions have been for

THE SEPTEMBER STARs.-A gentle.
man learned in such things sends the
following for publication: Mercury is
morning star on and after the I'd. On
the 18th Mercury rises nearly 10 min
utes before the sun. Saturn is morn
ing star and wins second place for
being at present the most brilliant of
stars. Venus is evening star and
reigns supreme in the western sky,
being the only planet visible after the
sun goes down. Venus sets on the
first about 7.30 a. M, and in the eve
ming, on the t30h, about 6.45.
Uranus is evening star till the Goth,
and then morning star. Uranus sets
on the 1st soon after Z p. N. Nep-
tune is morning star and pursues his
far away course without encountering
another planet. Neptune rises on the
first about $50 p. M, and on the 30th
about 1880, Jupiter is evening star
till the 9Th, when he is morning star.
The moon fulls September oath at
2.54 a. m.

Many of the days on which no rain
fell were cloudy.
One reason why the Oregon farmer
cannot find it profitable to make but
ter is, that he cannot or will not make
a first class article. The stuff sold as
butter is enough to make one weep
strong, IRONY, sticky. 1t is said that
a dealer recently left tub of the av-
erage Oregon butter open in his ware
house one night, and the next morn
ing when the porter opened the place
he noticed rat lying on the edge of
the tub. "These rats are getting to
be nuisance" said the porter, and
tried to drive it away. But the rat
would not bulge. Cautiously the
man approached, but the rat did not
stir. "You like that butter, don't
you, Mister Rat" said the man in his
ignorance. "Pll fix you," and he
made dive at the rat. Still it did
not move; it was dead. And not a
rat has been seen about that ware
house since.
Judge Deadly, of the United States
District court made remark long ago,
which characterizes very we'll the re-
lations of the Indian and the white
man in this judicial district. The
Judge cheerfully remarked, "Since l
have been upon the bench l have
never known an Indian to escape
hanging for the murder of white
man, nor have 1 known of white
man being hung for the murder of an
Indian" That's it, exactly; ''Lo the
poor Indian" Doctor.
