A friend begged her for it that she ihigbt frame it and keep it, and the lady gave it to her. Mrs. Simms meanwhile informed Officer Gibson of her loss. He hastened to the fel)Ot, and managed to recover of the amount, amoug It the twenty dollar note gotten by the lady mentioned above. Tbe discovery of the facts caused consternation among those who bad so freely made away with what they believed to be bogus treasure, and much regret was expressed for the loss sustained by Mrs.

Simms. The ease is decidedly one of the most singular on record. In its last issue, the Miltonian, the leading Kepublican newspaper of Northumberland county. came out squarely for Hancm'k, and so enraged were the Renublicans that they hired a gang of lawless fellows to steal the forms of the paper. The whole edition was run off, however, and its contents created con- of a stir amoug the politicians of the vicinity.

In his leading editorial tbe editor says: have to-day raised the name of Gen. 'Winfield Scott Ilaneock, the gallant and illustrious son and soldier af our mother Commonwealth, for Fresident of the United States. It requires a strong conviction of duty and a high, sense of the obligation which a journalist owes to the public to break away from party shaCKles, and to make a new departure, even though it be dictateil hy reason and sanctioned the highest motives of patriotism.

The answers imist be based largely on belief, 1 ailier than actual returns. We have no pur- but to deal fairly with our fricmls and the readers of fhe Fost. but the opinions expressed honestly entertained. Ohio has undoubtedly gone Kepublican. Indiana may have done tlio same.

It should be remembered that the inaiorities in both of large states have been such as to ren'der everv jtrecinct debatable ground, and that, at best, it takes days to obtain accurate statistics.

Thus far there have been rafted through the Fenob.scot boom 112,000,000 feet of logs, the largest quantity sin'ce 1875, when feet were rafted.

There are now about 22,000.000 feet of logs hung up, owing to low water, and these cannot be driven into the boom until next spring.

Tin: 1 TK l.YlllAAI TBOIBLICS. DESPATCH TO THE BOSTON New York, Oct. 13. The returns from Indiana come iu exceedingly slow, and at midnight not one half the State have been lu'ard from. While tbe figures are not such as the Democrats hoped for, they are certainly very unsatisfactory to the Kepuhlicans.

YVell Informed men know that the Demoiratic candidate for Governor was so iiupoptilar ivith ttie masses of tbe Democratic tliat his vote Ls far behind the rest of the ticket, and that the State is not sure to give its vote for (Jarlield, even if the Democratic candidate for (ioveruor is defeated a smuH plurality. Everybody laughs at the l)oin- liastie despatches sent here by Dotsey and Gorham, and many cool-headed Republican' severely censure such extravagant aiidridicu Ions claims as they are making. The result in Ohio and Indiana docs not alarm the Democratic leaders here or elsewhere. All that Ihe Republican' can claim is that thej' have not lost ground in those two States. At the Rc- pulilican headquaeters this afternoon a gentleman offered to liet $500 that Hancock's majority in Indiana would equal Garfield's majority in Oliio, and nobody acceiited his proposition.

nigli! both parties are claiming Indiana. It is believed that the Demoeratic ticket is elected by at least 2,000 majority it is possible that is defeated. The is in doubt, and as only one-half the State is Iteen heard troni, all estimates may be classed or brag. The host informed Democrats in Indiana that the final Slimming up will sh05v a clean Ileiuooratic majority. Ohio will probably give a Republican majority of 10.000.

The Republicans have nothing to boa.st of. for they barely hold their own. The following despatches were received at the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee to-night. ndi napolis Oct. 15.

The Democratic party does not need the electoral vote of Indiana in November, but that vote is assured by tbe result ot The Gazette says that the result insures ftOO Republican majority in Ohio in November, This is answer to the menace of a Solid South. There are no longer any doubtful Northern States, but the electoral vote of several Southern States may be reasonably claimed. The Commercial displays a quarter-page cut, on its first page, of the American eagle shaking a dilapidated looking rooster by the neck, and says, editorially, that the result ot this Yvill be a Republican victory in November, probably Kepublican control in Congress, and a final breaking up of the Solid South.
