AT PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 4.-The Chicago
men balted Daley fiercely to-day, and, aided
by wild pitches and passed balls, they scored
in every inning except the fifth and eighth.
They seemed to hitDaley when they pleased,
and scored two runs in the sixth and sew
enth after two men were out. In the fourth
inning Williamson sent the ball over right
field fence for home run. The visitors
punched four fielding errors in the fourth
inning, and the home club were thus saved
a whitewash. Good catches were made by
Dalrymple, Gore and Manning. Attend

MONTREAL, Oct. 2.-Owing no doubt 10
the very excellent precautions taken BY the
Mayor the city last night was quiet and the
streets were almost deserted. There are
three companies of garrison artillery under

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES.
A Negro Ravisher,

ST. LOUIS, Oct. Isl. King, the negro
rayisher who had been pursued for week
by a mob near New London, Mo, was cor
rallied in g corn-feld a few miles from that
town last night. He was shot twice, but not
seriously injured. There is great excite
ment in that locality, and it is not improb-
able that an attempt will be made to lynch
him. Friday, Sept. 25, he outraged two
women-Miss Laura Jeffries, Of Pike county,
and Mrs. Harris, ofRals county. Both acts
were committed in localities a few miles
apart. The outrage on Miss Jeflries was
committed about o'clock in the morning.
King went to the farm house occupied by E.
Jefries and family. In the barn lot he
found Miss Laura II year old girl, milk
ing cow. The girl says he assaulted her
without saying word. He found Mrs. Har-
ris alone in her farm house and cooked n
pistol, and put it at her head, at the same
time demanding al! the money in the house.
She pleaded with him not to kill her, at the
time giving him $l.15, which was all the
money she had in the house. Hethen grab
bed her by the throat, and after beating her
severely, rendering her about half uncon-
scious and perfectly helpless, he dragged
her her into all adjoining room and outrag.

A SHORT time after President Cleveland's
election he was called upon by committee
of pastors from colored conference then in
session, and during the interview the Presi-
dent informed them that the front door of
the White House would always be open to
them. How different was that from Mr..
Wise's statement, short time before, that
when negro legislators called upon him he
received them in his kitchen. And yet Mr..
Wise, presuming upon the negroes fear,
ignorance and prejudice, is striving to be
elected Governor of Virginia by their solid
vote. The negroes say they are like white
people; but few white men treated as the
negroes have been by Mr.. Wise would ever
think Of voting for him. Mrs. Hendricks,
the Vice Presidents wife, says her husband
receives his colored callers in his parlor and
treats them with as much consideration as
he does his most distinguished white visi-

WHILE EVERY body regrets that Mr..
Wise was prevented from concluding his
speech last night, for every word he uttered
was calculated to make votes among intelli.
gent and self respecting people for General
Lee, it is only right to say that he brought
the trouble upon himself by his insulting
retorts to Interruptions, and his coarse and
unseemly attempts to ridicue, not the Lub.
lie political acts, but the personal charac.
teristics of his opponent, who was the
schoolmate of some Of his hearers, who is
the personal friend ofmany ofthem and who
not only merits, but receives, the highest
respect from all the reputable men who
composed his audience, no matter what
their politics may be.

were answered emphatically in the affirma-

The public Schools,

We have frequently exposed tho hollow.
ness of the pretensions Of the Malone party
that they are the friends of the public
schools, and we have shown by the official
reports of the Superintendent of Public In
struclion that the greater the Mahone ma
iorty in a county the smaller the amount
contributed to the support Of the public
schools. Talk is cheap and costs the bleat-
er nothing, but it does not build school
house nor pay the salary Of teacher, and
the friends OF the schools are the men who
put their hands into their pockets volunta-
rly and contribute money to their support.
There are two kinds Of school funds-one
levied by the State and beyond the control
of the local county authorities, and the
other INCLUDING county and district funds)
which is entirely voluntary upon the part
of the county authorities. They can levy
much or little as they feel disposed, and
their friendship for the schools may be
gagged by the amount of money they thus
voluntarily contribute to them.
We gather together below, in groups Of
two, number of democratic and Mahoneite
counties, arranged together in pairs, so as
to show as nearly Us POSSIBLE an equal
amount of receipts from the State funds.
They are taken from the report of Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction Farr for the year
1854, and in each pair is an intensely Ma
honeite county and an intensely democratic
county, and our readers have an opportuni-
ty to witness an unfailing test Of the practi-
cal friendship of each for the public schools.
The first named in each group of two is

EVERY REASONABLE man will deprecate
the occurrences at Armory Hall last night,
and doubtless in their cooler moments, those

mart thew took. But it must also be taken
into consideration the provocation which
induced theinterruptions that brought about
the premature termination of the meeting
Men will not calmly listen to abuse and viii
fcation of their friends without retaliating,
and 90 it was that Mr.. Wise, forgetting or
ignoring the courtesy due his opponent and
the feelings of his supporters, by his vitu-
pe.ation and blasphemy brought down upon
himself the opprobrium of a very large part
of his audience, manifested in such way as
to prevent his concluding bis speech. The
good Book tells us that ut needs must be
that offences come, but woe to that man oy
whom the offence cometh;' and Mr.. Wise
must learn that if he will commit offences
against tho peace and dignity of the people
of the old Commonwealth, ho must expect
the .swoe,n and the utter condemnation he
so frequently meets with in his canvass.
In this connection we may say that moth
ing could more fully have vindicated the
wisdom of the suggestion of the State Exec
utive Committee as to joint discussions, or
any participation on the part of good citi-
zens in the meetings Of the adversaries, than
tho occurrences Of last night. Denuncia-
ton and abuse lead, and can lead, to moth
ing but bad blood and turbulence, and every
