North for Governor. THE SINKING FUND. The Commissiooers of the Sinking Fund met at irarrisburg on the 2nd inst. The State Treasurer submitted a statement showing the balance in the Sinking Fund to be $435,533.08, and the Secretary of the Commonwealth, having in view the Gubernatorial campaign this fall, offered a resolution to redeem $434,850 of the 5-10 loan and Chanibersburg certificates amounting to all 26, of the state debt, exceeding by $72,485.18 the present available balance in the fund. This was a great -come down.

From holding and using thousands of the public funds, in a freak of "virtuous in- dignation'' they offer to pay more money they have in the Treasury. The State Treasurer, aho certified that the amount in the General Revenue was At the last report of the State Treasurer, it will be remembered that the balance in the General Revenue Fund was the magnificent sum of $1.70. It will readily be seen that Auditor Temple has been collecting a considerable sum ofmon- cy since the 1st of May. The collections ofMr. Temple, embrace for the most part moneys that were long since due theState, and these collections lie is pressing all the time.

The gentlemen who are speculating off monies due the State will find that the Auditor General will hunt them up closely. Settle pay up, appears to be his motto. IJT a recent case in Elk county, Judge Williams decided that a purchaser of land at a tax sale took no title at the time; that lliepurchaseFliadno fight under his tax deed until the expiration of the term for redemption, and no remedy in law or equity, although the owner might remove all the limber and everything else of value on the land before the two years expired, and if the land -was of no value except for timber, compel the unlucky purchaser at tax sale lo lose Ihc money he had paid the County Treasurer for the lands. A FAIE and square test case under the Civil Rights law will now be made up in Indiana. In direct violation of the State statute Frank Miller, white, has married llary A.

Ginis, colored, and is in jail for BO doing. The marriage license was regularly issued by the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Clark county, and the ceremony was regularly performed by a Methodist clergymen of Xcw Albany, who has been indicted together with the incarcerated bridegroom. The trial is fixed for October. Miller is a German by birth, has been in this country about six years, and declares that he loves his wife and would "rather have her than any white woman he ever saw." She is described as "a decent, honest woman," and both announce their intention of fighting the matter to the end. IT delights the Radical editor and the Radical stumper to pitch into the Ohio platform and to tell the people thatmoney is cheap and plenty in the money centres of the East.

But it does no good to the people of Ohio to know that money is plenty in New York, and it can be borrowed at reasonable rates on government bonds. The people of Ohio and the people elsewhere want money in their own localities, notlocked up in New least that is they say. If a man needs a chunk of ice when the mercury is hugging one hundred degrees, does it do him any good to tell him that he can get plenty of ice in Alaska for nothing? If he wants work does it help him to say that harvest hands are in demand out in Kansas and Jlissour- ri There are two ways looking through a telescope; one end contracts and the other expands. There are two ways of looking at this financial question. One is from the Wall street money changer's standpoint, nud the other Vcnango Spectator.

THE NEXTELEOTION. We commend the attention of the voters to the following: The new- Constitution forbids all persons from voting unless they have been assessed at least two months and paid their taxes one month before the date of the election. No one of foreign birth can vote unless, in addition to the above, lie has been naturalized a month previous to the election. The date of holding the next election IB Tuesday, November '2. Wednesday, September is the last day 01 whicli voters can be assessed.

Friday, October 1, is (he lint day on which they can pay taxes, Friday, October 1, is tlie last day for taking oul naturalization papers. Each of these important duties can be performed at any time before the days mentioned. Let oar friends see lo it that the matter is attended (o before it is too late. OBITUABY. Ei-Prendent Andrew Johnson.

The telegraph announces 'the sudden death of Andrew Johnson', late'President of the United Stales, which, event took place in July 31st Mr. Johnson-vas'born in Raleigh, N. December 29, His father died while endeavoring to save a friend from drowning. At that time young Johnson was four years of age, and at ten he was appenticed to a tailor in his native town, with whom he served seven years. Owing to reduced circumstances caused by the death of his father, his mother found herself unable to afford the lad any regular schooling and he was thrown entirely np- 011 his own resources foran education.

To this object he devoted all his leisure hours while learning his trade; first with the help of the journeymen, acquiring a knowledge of letters, and thus going on step by step until, at the completion of his apprenticeship in theautumn of 1824, he was a fair English scholar. From Raleigh young Johnson went to Laurcns Court- House, S. where he worked as a journeyman tailor for about two years, and while there became engaged to be married, but his poverty excited the opposition of the girl's friends, and the match was broke off. In May 1826, he returned to his native city, where he worked at trade until September. He then determined to strike out into a new field, and with this object in view he induced his mother, who was entirely dependent upon him for support, to accompany him to Greenville, where he again commenced work as a journeyman tailor.

He remained there about one year, married and then went further West, but finding no place to suit him as a permanent home, he returned to Greenville and commenced business for himself. Up to this time his education was limited to reading, and he now completed his knowledge of the En- lish branches under the instruction of his wife. His first public office was that of Alderman of the village, to which he was elected in 1828. He -was re-elected to the same office in 1829 and again in 1830. In the latter year he was elected Mayor, which position he held for three In 1835 he was chosen to the Legislature.

Taking decided grounds against a popular scheme of internal improvement which he considered would entail upon the State a large debt, he -was. defeated at the next election (1837). Events proved the wisdom of his policy, and he was at the next subsequent election chosen by a large majority. In 1840 he was Presidential Elector-at-Large from the.State on the cratic ticket. In his canvass through the State he met several of the leading Whig orators.

In the year following he was elected to the State Senate. In 1843 he was sent to Congress, and served in the lower house for ten years. Among the prominent measures which he advocated were the bill refunding the fine imposed on General Jackson at New Orleans in 1815, the annexation of Texas, the tariff of 1846, the war measures of Mr. Folk's Administration and a Homestead bill. In 1S53 he was elected by the Democrats Governor of Tennessee; his opponent was Gustavus A.

Henry. He was re-elected in 1855 by a large majority over Meredith P. Gentry. In 1857 he was elected to the United States Senate for a full term ending March towns and cities on the way. Notwithstanding the enthusiasm with which he was at first received the mission was failure, and the new Johnson party still-born at its birth.

The continua- Hi'tm of the President's constant battle with Congress. The majority in that bo3y becamei so inflamed hJiii thaty after several abortive attempts, they succeeded at last, upon the occasion of his removal of Secretary Stanton, in procuring his impeachment for high crimes and misdemeanors. The trial began March 13, 18GS, and lasted until May 16, ending in the acquittal of the President. Mr. Johnson received a handsome vote in the New York Democratic National Convention.

From his retirement lo privale life at the conclusion of his Presidential term, Mr. Johnson remained unidentified with any political movement or Last year, however, he entered the field as a candidate for Tennessee The result of the popular election showed him lo be mistakably the favorite with the people, but a stubborn fight look place in the Legislature, and it was not until the 26th of January last that he secured hii election for the six years' term beginning March 4,1875. In the extra session ol the Senate, March 22, 23, he made a brief, but vigorous speech, concluding with his prediction that "an stratocracy ahead." This was practically lib last public political appearance. Rumor accredited him with an intention to canvass the West in behalf of more currency and a desire to unite the Johnson claimed to have been instrumental in founding the the mechanics and laborers in a political party. with a view to his own elevation again to the Presidency.

The death of Andrew Johnson leaves the country without a single ex-President living. This has not happened since the death of Washington in the administra- lion of the elder Adams. When John Quincy Adams was inaugurated, fifty years ago, all the Presidents for the pro ceding seven terms, twenty-eight years were living, namely, the elder Adams, Jefferson, Madison and Munroe. When Polk was inaugurated, thirty years ago, the cumbents of the previous twenty years, five terms, were living (except Harrison, who was in office but one mouth), namely, the younger Adams, Jackson, Van Buren anc Tyler and when Lincoln was inaugural ed, fourteen years ago, no less than fire his "illustrious predecessors" Van Buren, Tyler, Filmore, Pierce ant Buchanan. The mortality among oui public men has been very great.

Of Lin coin's Cabinet officers only two, Montgomery Blair and Gideon Welles, are now living. son identified himself with all the leading Democratic measures before Congress, entering into their advocacy with characteristic energy and taking upon himself the special championship of the Homestead bill. His position before the country as a thinker and speaker had become so prominent that lie was the favorite candidate of a portion of the Democracy in the Southwest for the party nomination for President, and in the Charleston Convention of 1SCO he received the vote of the Tennessee delegation for many successive His fidelity to the Southern side of the great slavery controversy was not then questioned. When, however, the flames of civil war broke forth Mr. Johnson took an immediate and earnest stand for the Union.

He became in the Senate the bitterest opponent of the secession movement; and at home, in Tennessee, he took the stump in denunciation of the secessionists, greatly at the risk of his personal safety. Endowed with a pluck that never deserted him, he stood up before the most exasperated audiences and made his characteristic appeals for the Union cause. Tennessee was nearly unanimous for the South, and when it was overrun by the Federal armies in 1862, President Lincoln felttheneed of a strong, vigorous hand to govern He accordingly appointed Andrew Johnson Military Governor of the State. His confidence was not misplaced. The Governor ruled the State with a rod of iron, and very much to his vigor was due the success of the Union arms in that quarter.

In March, 1863, he madehisfamousspeech from the steps of the Capitol at Nashville to the newly liberated in which he promised to be their "Moses." Qualities like these, together' with his weight as a Southern War Democrat, influenced the Republican Convention at Baltimore in 1864 to place Mr. Johnson's name as second on the Presidential ticket then nominated. During the campaign which followed the candidate for "Vice-President spoke for himself and his cause with his usual spirit. In November he received a majority of the electoral votes for the high office, and in the following March be took the oath prescribed by law and entered upon his duties as presiding officer of the United States Senate. The assassination of Mr.

Lincoln suddenly elevated him to the head of the nation at the most critical moment of ite history. The events of the administration of President Johnson are comparatively fresh in the public mind, and do not require an extended review. He broke with his parly a few months after his inauguralion. He denounced its leaders just as he had Ihe secessionists four years before, and classed tliem alike as enemies of the Union and the Constitution. May 30, 1865, he issued the proclamation of amnesty.

He vetoed in succession the Civil Rights bill, the Freedman's Bureau bill, the Reconstruction bill, the Tenure of Office bill and other leading Radical measures. Early in August, 1866, the Philadelphia Convention assembled and fully indorsed hi? policy. He started upon a tour through the Union immediately afterwards, taking the Cabinet and General Grant along with him, and addressed the people at all large DEATH OP GEN. GEORGE ETT. E.

The telegraph announces the death Gen. George E. Pickett, after a brief illness, at Norfolk. His name will forever be associated with the most remarkable battle of the American rebellion, a battli memorable amongst all the bloody and im portant struggles which have crimsoned the pages of history and changed the des Units of the world. The battle of Gettysburg embraced three days, July 1, 2 and Gen.

Lee had invaded the North with the largest, besi anuy Tvnlcn'me Uorilederacy' ever placet in the field. On the first day of July, Hil and Ewcll began the fighting, driving i portion of the Union forces in confusion through Gettysburg. On the followin day, Meade having brought all his forces up, the two armies were in position anc after desperate fighting, Gen. Warren the Union army, retainded Little Rounc Top, from which the enemy could not dis lodge him. On the fateful 3d of July, Lee ordered the grand attack with which the name ol George E.

Pickett is imperishably associated. The Virginian veterans aided by Pettigrew and numbering eighteen thou sand men moved out against all the Union batteries from Round Top" to Cemetery Hill with the purpose of piercing our lines, and in the midst of an unparalleled fire, Pickett's division pressed steadily on until they charged straight over the' stone wall behind which Gibbon's front line was posted, and charged among the Federal batteries. It was a superb demonstration of courage, and Union officers to this day refer to it with soldierly admiration. The attack disastrously failed, and the fate of the Southern Confederacy was scaled. In this battle the Confederates lost 28,000 killed and wounded, and 8,000 prisoners.

The man who led the famous charge, now sleeps in peace, and his countrymen will, only recall the valor which he so magnificently displayed in a mistaken Telegraph. THE failure of Duncan, Sherman was followed by that of the Commercial Warehouse Company of New York, of John Mason Co. of Philadelphia, and of two small grocery houses. These disasters were in no sense precipitated by the failure of the day Advances on sugar had involved both the Warehouse Company and the Philadelphia firm. The liabilities of the Commercial Company are placed at $1,500,000 with large assets, unavailable at the time, valued at $4,000,000, The liabilities and assets of the Philadelphia house is not known.

Little additional information could be obtained relative to the the condition of the affairs of Duncan, Sherman Co. Their late losses on cotton are reported to have aggregated a million dollars. The reported loss of $700,000 by the Mobile and Ohio Railroad is confirmed; in addition to this, it has been ascertained that the firm held $300,000 of the bonds of the State of Alabama, quoted at 35. A large amount of real estate in New York was transferred on Monday last by Mr. Sherman lo the father of.

the former. The effect of these several failures was hardly felt by the money and stock markets yesterday, and produced little depression in the Cotton and Produce Exchanges. PECULATION. the Chicago Tribune, AJir.inls'rnilon Republican At the'last session of the Pennsylvania legislature the House passed a resolution directing its Speaker to appoint a commit- -iee charged with the investigation of the State Treasury, and authorized to send for persons'and papers, and to have access to all records in the office of the Treasurer. The Committee was duly appointed.

It waited upon the Suite Treasurer and suggested that it would like to look at some figures. He refused to "recognize" the Committee. Hfc declined to produce his accounts. The representatives of the people of Pennsylvania were informed that not a scrap of paper, not a leaf of a book, not a row of figures, would be shown them, Dishonesty had no idea of furnishing the proofs of its own guilt. It will be remembered that a certain official thief named Tweed once declined to "recognize" a demand for the production of his accounts.

The maneuvre did not pay in the long rnn. The wily person who sits in the Treasurer'office at Harrisburg is apparently not versed in recent political history, else he would scarcely have taken this disastrous leaf out of Tweed's book. The refusal to submit the accounts is tantamount to an acknowledgement that the accounts No other inference can be darwn from it. Yet mark how the press of Philadelphia re ceives his exposure. Here is the Press, which prints the Commitee's report on an inside page, gives it a contemptuous heading, and makes not the slighiest editorial reference to the grave matter.

The Committee managed to recover from the blow of not being '-recognized" by Mackey. It proceeds to investigate this person without assistance. It has published a preliminary report, which is important, not only for what it says of future investigation when the Legislature has met and the House orders the necessary books and papers to be produced, but for itself. Three points are made. During twelve years from Dec.

1. 1SG2 the State Treasury has received not a cent of interest on the funds deposited in banks The avrage monthly balance in the hands of the Treasurer has been $2,100,000. Interest on this, at 5 per cent, would have amounted to more than $1,200,000, Who got Ihis money It was paid to somebody of course, and Ihat somebody was not the State. If the Treasurer retained this interest for himself, he is liable to fine, imprisonment, and removal from office by impeachment, or judicial decision. In plain English, the matter amounts to this From December, 18G2, to December 1874 some person or person 3 pocketed a year which belongs to the Treasury the people of Pennsylvania.

This is whai the Philadelphia Press considers not sufficient importance to require editoria notice. The Constitution of Pennsylvania pro vides that, "unless in case of war, invasion, or insurrection, no part of the sinking fund shall be used or applied otherwise than in the extinguishment of the public debt." Nevertheless, nearly $3,000,000 of the fund has been so A law of April 14, 1870, which seems to be plainly unconstitutional, authorized such a disregard of the constitution, but more than $1,500,000 ot the sum was divertec even before any such wretched excuse was The law requires the commissioners the Sinking Fund to use "all moneys" in their possession on the first business day of May, August, November, and February in reducing the pnblie debt. Instead doing so, they have repeatedly carried bal ances amounting to over a million dollars over these days. This was done, ofcourse in order to give somebody the interest on these- large sums. The people of Pensyl- vania have been forced to pay interest on millions of debt in order that some dishonest person or persons might receive interest on the money thai the law said should be used to redeem this debt.

The chairman of the Republican State Central Committee has felt it incumbent upon lurn and the position which he occupies to make himself heard through the annual address "to the Republicans of Pennsylvania," whom he invokes lo cooperation with him in Ihe effort to save what is left to the organization whose destines are committed to his unskilled hand. He of course considers the salvation of the country secondary to and dependant upon Republican success he "points with pride" to. the reduction of the state debt, the "unflinching integrity" ofGov.

He has nothing to say about that $200,000 of interest embezzled by Republican officials from the state, and wisely makes no promises that Mr. Rawle will not follow in their footsteps. He prefers not to go into details regarding the differences between the two parties but contents limself by pointing out one great distinction, which is Ihat "the Republicans be- ieve in the indissolubility of lite union of he slates, whilst the Democratic party be- ieves Ihat the federal -government has no tower to protect its own existence or pre- any state from asserting its independence."
