however, have varied considerably, and
have only been estimated. It is under
the government of a despot, and has not
been regarded, heretofore, as a region of
mucn consequence. Its southern part is
a sand waste, at best, and the rest of its
surface consists of wild mountain ranges
and some fertile valleys. Its productions
have been principally wheat, rice, tobac

The Cleveland Plain Dealer possesses
a correspondent in this place who writes
under the very modest but rather com
prehensive nom de plume of "Lake
County." A late number of that paper
contains a short article from his pen
which being exceedingly illogical is pe
culiarly characteristic. For the personal
notice, and well wishes we make our pro
found obeisence. As to. the balance of
the communication it is evidently dicta
ted from a frantic desire to find some
where some grain of comfort. But his
anxiety leads him to mistake cause for
effect. "Lake County" forgets that the
number or newspapers in a community
Is a very fair measure of their intelli
gence. Thus the three newspapers now
published in this county are - not needed
to "take care or' the 2,200 republican
majority but are simply the natural re
sult of the existence of that majority.
- As was announced in a late number of
the Journal , work has at last been fair
ly commenced upon the Painsville and
Youngstown Rail-Road and from present
appearances the cars will actually be
running before the winter shall have set
in. A full corps of engineers, with J.
C. Sharpless as chief have been at work
for several days and have about eomplet -
ed their part of the work as far as be -
tween this place and Chardon. There
are now at actual work upon the road
some three gangs of men and more are
being put on as fast as work can be laid
out for them and as fast as they can be
procured. The number is thus continual -
ly increasing and will probably reach
two hundred within a few davs. The
engineer and all who are connected with
the work say that the prospects are much
oetter than they anticipated, and we
have no doubt but that this winter will
witness the completion of the road.
Through the politeness of Horace Steele
Esq. to whose indefatigable labor and
exertions we are in no small degree in
debted for the attainment and probable
early completion of the enterprise we
were shown photographs of the cars,
locomotives and other rolling stock in

tainly nothing can be ' more perfect in
detail or neater in design and finish than
the stock proposed for the road. These
photographs can be seen in the Rail-Road

rapidly as possible.
Postmaster General Creswell went
down to Long Branch to obtain the sig
nature of the President to the treaty for
the interchange of money orders between
the United States and United Kingdom
of Great Britain ; also a postal convention
between the United States and thaAxgen-
tive Confederation. Of course it is
right that public officers should have
their proper recreations and relaxations
from the labor of their offices. But after
all is'nt the present way becoming a
little monotonous? Human nature is
very much alike whether it is republican
or democratic and the temptation to per
sonal aggrandizement to patronage of
office and to devote too much time to mere
personal pleasure at the expense of pub
lic duties, is just as hard to be resisted by
one as the other. What would the early
Presidents or the country at large have
aiouht ot Httle Puties
iinis nature,
this nature, and what excuse can be
found for any officer of the people being
continually found absent from his post,
even when official duties require his
presence, merely from a seeking of per
sonal pleasure.
As the time approaches for the hold
ing of the Conventions the question of
candidacy for the several offices natur
ally excites much interest. The princi
ple of rotation in office has become so
well established as to have almost become
a matter beyond doubt. For three terms
the office of Judge of the Court of Com
mon Pleas has been held by a resident
of the County of Ashtabula, so that in
this present campaign it seems almost
past question but that the claims of either
Lake or Geauga counties must be con
sidered. The onlv name we have heard
mentioned in connection with this office
from either of these counties,' is that of
Judge Canfield of Chardon. . That the
Qualifications of this gentleman for the
office are of the highest order, there can
be no doubt. The present incumbant of
tlie office it seems fully recognizes the
force of this reasoning as is shown by
tne following card :

To the Bepublican Elector of Ashtabula,

being a candidate for Judge of the Court
of Common Pleas, I desire to say this,
in explanation of my position in regard
to it.
Many of my friends have requested
me to again be a candidate and tendered
me their earnest support. But in view
of the fact that I have been elected and
re-elected, and of the further fact, that
several responsible gentlemen are now
seeking the office, some of whom belong
to e county that has not had the office
at all, I deem it to be my duty to say that
I am not again a candidate. Kot un-
mindful of the many favors 1 have re
ceived from the people of this and other
counties In this district, but feeling deep
ly grateful and tendering them my
warmest thanks therefore, I respectfully
decline being a candidate before the
coming convention.

The Explosion tn New York.
Another of those horrible events has
happened which canters term "myste
rious dispensations," but in which sens
ible and honest men see the inevitable re
sults of criminal and human carelessness,
There are not a few people who, in the
explosion on Sunday last, of the Staten
Island boat Westfield, will profess to see
the hand of an avenging God, wreaking
His wrath against wretched breakers of
I His law. Let these be left to the cruelty
of their convictions. The more natural,
I sensible and satisfactory explanation
I seems to be hideously wicked t indiffer-
ence, neglect and carelessness of the
proprietors of the line of boats to which
the Westfield belonged. Several hundred
I of sky, and in exchanging 'kindly talk
with one another, they are more religi-
I ously employed than the majority of
I those who express their piety in church
I attendance and the formal observance of
festivals and fasts. At any rate, bad or
good, noble or groveling, they are the
children of one Father, entitled' to the
I f bounties and generosities with which

mated and happy scene is blasted, and
the demons of fire and steam are let loose
among it through the selfish and damn
able economy of a patched cylinder,
Elsewhere the reader will find a full ac
count of the tragedy, than which one
more acute and dreadful has scarcely
ever occurred in the history of this coun
try. It is fully time that some steps
were taken to protect people from the
terrible effects of careless or worse than
careless officials. The people are sick
ened and horrified at the blasphemey of
the frequent verdict, "No one to blame;"
Sooner or later they will find some one,
and fix a punishment that will prevent a
repetition of the crime for a long while

Woman's
Bights and
Woman's
Wrongs.
: Almost every person in the country
knows that there is a woman by the name
of Laura Fair who is now under sentence
of death, in San Francisco for the mur
der of Judge A. P. Crittenden, The
daily papers have given full accounts of
the trial and have also given the full
evidence by which her past life . was
thrown open to the gaze of the world
and by which it was shown' beyond dis
pute that even previous to her acquaint
ance with Judge Crittenden she had led
a disreputable life. She was found to be
not only unchaste, but bold, selfish and
perfectly unscrupulous as to the means
she took to gratify her desires or her
avarice. Judge Crittenden became
victim to her toils and was deliberately
sought out by her and shot, on a steam'
boat in the presence of his family. She
1 did this, not even claiming thnt he had
1 seduced or deceived her but simply be
cause he had determined, to break loose
from the siren-spell and return to his
wife return to his family and to respect
ability. As to him, we do not propose to
make any excuse fer he has paid the
1 death penalty for his folly. Nor have
I we one word more to say as to the base
I woman who took the life which ought
1 perhaps to have been forfeited. A cold-
I blooded courtizan and murderess, she
now awaits the just penalty of her
crimes.
But with regard to Mrs. Elizabeth
Cady Stanton a lady who is acknowji
edged to be the ablest leader and advocate
of the so-called womans-right-movement
a lady who travels through the country
to desseminate her peculiar views a lady
who has appeared before our own citi
zensas to her, and her utterances in re
gard to this woman we do desire to say
something. Mr. Stanton is now in San
Francisco and while there paid a visit to
the condemned woman audi spent some
time in her cell. The reporter pf the
San Francisco Chronicle had an inter,
view with Mrs. Stanton upon the subject
and here Js what she said to him :
"Whew I went to that jail to-day and
saw what I did see, it was the saddest
moment that I remember. And when I
looked into the mild blue eyes of that
poor woman, and studied carefully that
pale and sorrow-laden face, I could but
feel that no amount of testimony, no ar
ray of evidence that might be piled up
against her, could ever convince me that
she was the bad, bold woman that - the
press has stated that she is. Mrs. Fair
may not have been a saint, but she can
not have been a demon. I think that the
treatment of this woman is an outrage
and a disgrace to the city of San Fran
cisco.". . '.'-.-' '- t '
There! Is not that a good specimen of
Mrs. Stanton's judgment. The woman
was convicted of a cold-blooded and re
vengeful murder of a man because he
would not desert Ms wife aud live in
adultery with this shameless harlot. The
killing was admitted, because it having
been committed in the presence of a cloud
of witnesses, could not be denied. The
motive, too, was admitted, and it was
what we have stated it to be.
In view of these undenied and unde
niable facts, what does Elizabeth Cady
Stanton say? She "looks into the mild
blue eyes of that poor woman and studies
carefully that pale and sorrow-laden
lace," and then decclares "that no
amount of testimony, no array of evi
dence that might be piled up against her
could ever convince me that she was the
bold, bad woman that the press has star
ted that she is."
Mrs. Stanton is no mere weak sent!
mental spinster, ignorant of the ways of
the world and life, but a robust, burly
woman, mature in years, a wife and
mother, a professed teacher of what
laws ought to govern a civilized people,
And yet, consider the judgement that
she passes on the case of Laura Fair.
She looks into her "mild blue eyes and
pale sorrow-laden face," and away goes
evidence, and admitted facts. The cruel
and deliberate ' murderess the expe
rienced strumpet who for years pursued
her trade for conquest and gain, and who
was an adept in the use of the pistol as
well as in the display of her charms is
not, according to this apostle (or apost-
less) of tlie new gospel a very bold or
very bad woman. - 1 . .; ' ;
How is it, then, that a woman of Mrs,
Stanton's intelligence, : years, and ex
perience, can deliberately utter such daft
absurdities on such a serious matter? X
other answer can be given than that her
irrational theories about the character,
position, rights aud wrongs of her sex.
have turned her head, and lead her to
apply the same kind of "reasoning" by
which she supports her crazing hobby of
"Woman's Rights" to every subject in
which a man or woman is concerned.
This kind of lunacy is the natural fruit
of those radical and dangerous theories
which ignore the lessons of experience
and the nature of - the race, and strike at
the foundations of social life.

The motion for a new trial was over
ruled by the Judge without argument,
The court then asked Hunter if he had
anything' to say in his defense. He
arose and expressed himself dissatisfied
with the course taken, saying that he
had not received a fair trial, and that he
had not committed murder and did not
remember of seeing Mrs. Gargett. The
last he remembered was jumping off of
wagon, his closing words were : My
last dying words shall be "God bless the

that the verdict was given after an im
partial trial, and that, regardless of what
he bad said, his duty, although a sad one
was to pronounce the sentence. ;

sentence, that the prisoner should be ta

NEW YORK. .
The Staten Island ferry boat, Westfield
while" in her slip at Whitehall, and
crowded with passengers, exploded her
boiler, at 1 :2l) p. m. The concussion was
terrific, shattering the forward part of
tne Doat and Killing ana scalding a great
number of people. The hurricane deck
was carried overboard, and a large num
ber of persons fell over in the water.
and were drowned. The scene was be
yond description. Men were struck
dumb by the loss of wives and little ones.
and women were distracted, having lost
husbands and children, while little chil
dren were crying for their parents who
were lost.
The front part of the boiler was sud
denly blown out, lodging in the -bow,
thirty leet distant. The forward part
of the boat, the upper cabin and all, was
instantly shivered and split into a thou
sand pieces. As an' eye witness expres
sed it : "The forward part of the boat
was lifted fifty feet in the air, the smoke
stack fell, and' then everything was
buried in the hold." Passengers, chairs.
stools, horses, benches and life preservers
dropped into the hold at the boiler, which
poured out a deadly volumn. Many per
sons were mown overboard. A. lather
and mother had their children blown
from their arms. In an instant the wa
ter was alive with men, women and chil
dren struggling for life. The after part
oi tne boat, wnicnnaa escaped the loree
ot tne explosion, would have been safe
for the uninjured, but they were panic
stncKen, ana leapea overboard without
regard to the consequences.
Captain Unman, of the New street
police, hearing of the explosion, was
promptly on board. The fire alarm was
sounded. Dr. Shine was at the scene
within ten minutes, well provided with
medicines and bandages; cool and col
lected, he saved several lives by pru
dence. Within twenty minutes, Inspec
tor Jamison was on the ground directing
the efforts o the police and keeping back
L-iv vavtvm. a ntw kjvi jiunut; uoac came
to the rescue and a gentleman who was
in a row boat near by, saved several lives
The firemen also went to the rescue and
right bravely did their work. The de
bris in the fore part of the hold was first
removed. The cries of the poor, half
boiled victims were heart rending. Sti
mulants were given them as they strug
gled beneath the beams, and oil poured
upon their burns. As fast as the wounded
recovered they were borne to the deck
of another ferry boat that was moored
alongside, where they were tenderly
cared for by Dr. Shine. Within twenty
minutes ambulances from the Center
Street Hospital were at the wharf. The
scalded victims were placed in the am
bulances and driven to the hospital at
full speed. Private carriages and express
wagons were also brought into requisi
tion, The insurance patrol wagon bore
several foads of mangled human beings
to the hospital. Some died on the way,
others were delirious with pain. One am
bulance was filled with children, whose
eyes were closed, and the whple pf );heir
faces swelled beyond all recognition.
Their feet and legs were cooked and their
tender muscles laid bare. By four o'clock
over seyeniy wouuded had beeu recover-:
ed. In the Center Street Hospital five
of them died within on hour. The scenes
here were heart-reudinr
One of the two firemen on board the
boat, napied Robert Crasson, in the pre
room nt the time pf the explosion, suys
that fiStepf). minutes before the accident
he was on tjie cylinder. He then went
to one of the cabins for a drink of watc'r
and then entered the fire room, while
from the rear of the Txriler and went to
see the cause. He had gone but about
half way the length of the boiler, when
ne iound the steam so aense that he could
go no further. He turned to come back,
when he was struck in the lace by a fly
ing splinter and knocked down. He made
his way to the deck as fast ss possible.
This hissing noise which he heard must
have been the starting of the plate patch
ing on the boiler and the first premon
ition of the impending disaster. A cur
sory examination of the boiler, as it rest
ed in the bottom of the boat, revealed the
1 act that tne explosion occurred at the
rear, and that a piece about four feet long
and two feet wide was torn out of the
Jacket and thrown a distance of about
one hundred feet on to the dock at the
barge office. Another and a larger por
tion ot the holier was thrown forward on
to the bow of the boat. ; -5
No theory is offered by the officers of
tne company lor the disaster.
T he engineer or the- Westfield - says
that when the Westfield steamed out
from the island she had four cocks of
water, and from the feet that only a
slight report accompanied the explosion
there could have been but a small head
of steam on.
Mr. Stevens. Secretary of the Staten
Island Ferry Company, says there was a
government safety valve attached to the
Doner.
The most reliable information shows
that there must have been over fifty
killed and one hundred wounded, of
which latter number a great many will
not recover,
The call for a meeting of business men
to take action on the recent exposure of

that the community are determined to

Special London dispatches state the
earthquake in the Phillipine Islands on
May 1st, affected in a terrible manner the
small islands of Carrijum, hve miles irom
AUsamis. For some months previously,
especially in March, there was a succes

tensive crevices in the earth. Finally on
May 1st, the level plain near the village
ot Datermin began to gradually suDsiae.
until the tops ol tne houses became level
with the surface of the earth. This re
markable phenomenon attracted a large
number ot people, when suddenly some
terrific shocks were felt, and before the
thundering reverberations had died away

persons. - The plain became the crater of
a volcano 1.500 feet wide and irom it
smoke, ashes and stones were thrown
into the air. A pause until dark suc

upon. Such a course, however, will lead

The clerical agitation throughout
Prussia over the questions now pending
relative to the riglits of the Papal See
continues. The question of the succes
sion to the Papal chair, which is now
being discussed in Rome, and in which
the college of Cardinals have taken ac
tion, also excites considerable interest.
The Prussian government has announced
its determination to prevent the attempt
of the Italian Cardinals to nominate a
successor. It is stated that Cardinal
Pietie will probably be the nominee of
the College of Cardinals.

A London special says that there is a
growing uneasiness in the public mind
over the fact that the cholera has raged
for two years in Russia. As this terri
ble scourge has not yet found the fron
tier, a close watch has peen instituted to
prevent its progress. Apprehensions
exist that it not having advanced into
Germany the usual way it has ap
proached heretofore, it may now come
by the sea, and the government has pre
scribed regulations to be enforced on all
snips irom tne .Baltic ports.
Persia.
Special cable dispatches add but little
to information previously received of the
dreadful lanime in Persia. The drought
last year in' the central and southern
provinces and tne consequent partial
lailure of the crops caused great destitu
tion and misery all the winter. At the
same time taxes were increased on the
people of Laristan which brought on
famine, causing a number of people to
leave their homes and a consequent de
crease of taxes to government. The new
Goverment promised to raise not only
the usual sum but still more, and this op
pression drove the rest ol the country
people from their homes and thronged
cities which pay no taxes. The failures
of crops in Laristan was rendered more
disastrous because the other povinces,
which mostly raise opium, cotton and
silk, depended on it for their grain.
The results in Ispahan, l ezd. Kirman
and Shiraz were terrible by the end ot
winter. Before the new crop the cities
were crowded. Wheat rose to nine
times its usual price, and starvation be
gan. Yezd raises opium; the people
could buy no grain and they ate grass
and roots. In Khorassan the people sold
their children to the Turcomans to save
their lives, and in other provinces the
people ate their children, having eaten
all their domestic animals and even ver
min. In Ispahan men were caught dig
ging up corpses to feed their starving
tamilies, and pestilence, in consequence,
has committed fearful ravages. One-
half of Persia is said to be depopulated,
Ireland.
A dispatch from Dublin, and dated on
the 31st ult.,says : "The Prince of Wales
and party arrived this evening and had
a popular reception. Tne weather is un
usually cold for the season, and although
the streets were crowded with spectators,
the demonstration was not so enthusias
tic as it might have been under more fa
vorable circumstances. The Fenian ele
ment was not absent, and as the Royal
visitors passed over the route to the Cas
tle, some hisses were heard from tbe
sidewalks. The city is gaily decorated
with flags, but the illumination to-night
is not so general as was expected."
1 In fact the days when mere royal vis
its could appease an indignant people
have gone by. A later dispatch ot the 3d
of the present month says, however, that
the Prince of Wales presided at the ban
quet of tlie agricultural society to-night.
On the presenting of a toast to the Queen
and the Royal family, his Royal high
ness expressed the hope that the Uueen
would soon visit Ireland, and defended
his brother from the charge of useless-
ness. Prince Arthur responded to a toast,
He protested his lasting interest in Ire
laud's welfare, whicli he declared was
engraved on his heart and predicted
prosperous future for the country. The
Princess Louise, in reply to a petition
irom tlie Irish Amnesty Committee
says it would be impossible for her to in
tervene for the release of the Fenian
prisoners, and the question of pardon
must De lett with the tjovernment."
Austria.
Considerable excitement was lately ere.
ated in Vienna from the fact that the Aus
trian government pronounced a decree of
expatriation against a citizen named
Salfrine, who visited Rome and asked
King Victor Emanuel to annex Trieste
to Italy.
Nothing of much interest comes to us
however, except the fact that the Italian
government has requested Count lieust,
the Chancellor of the Austrian Empire.
to act as mediator in the difficulties with
the Pope, and propose a consolidation to
the Vatican. .The Italian .government
nas promised to accept the spiritual in
dependence of the Pope, the pledge by
an international treaty to the full amount
of the papal guarantees, by placing it be
yond the power of Parliament to rescind
the conditions already secured to the
plaintiff.
Spain.
The change in the Spanish Cabinet
will work no change in the administra
tion of affairs in Cuba. The President of
the Ministry, Senor Zorilla, in represent
ing the new ministerial programme to
the Cortes, stated that there would be no
departure from the colonial policy of
marsnai oerrano's late government. He
declared that the Spanish government
could not help sustaining the contest
with the rebellion while a single rebel
cries "Down with Spain." "Our prop
erty, our blood, all we have and all we
are will we send to defend the integrity
oi me opauisn uommion."
Guadeloupe.
A cable telegraph from Halifax, dated
Tuesday last, says that the Royal mail
steamer Delta, from Bermuda, arrived
last evening, bringing intelligence of
fire at Point-a-Petri, Guadeloupe, on the
18th ultimo. Nearly the whole town was
destroyed, and thirty thousand persons
left without shelter. The only buildings
that escaped were the church, theatre,
Many wharves were burned, and the su
gar ready for shinning was destroyed.
The Are commenced in the middle of the
town, and, the wind being very high
the flames spread m all directions. , The
town was rebuilt entirely of wood after
its destruction by an earthquake in 18-13.
The fire is supposed to be the work of an
incendiary. .
Canada .
Canada is in a ferment over the pro
posed ratification of the Treaty of Wash
ington by the Dominion. Tlie anti
ministerial press opposes the treaty ve
hemently, and Sir John Macltonald is
roundly abused ; and yet, according to
the special of a well informed corre
spondent, indications are favorable for
the prompt ratification of tne treaty.
Some of the Nova Scotia and New
Brunswick papers talk strongly in favor
of annexation to the United States. The
St. John's Globe is of the opinion that
two representatives from New Bruns
wick in the Senate at Washington would
be of far more importance to that prov
ince than the number it has in the body
at Ottawa,
Greece.
Tlie latest news from this country are
of no interest at all except the item from
Athens, to the effect that a panic prevails
in that city, as an invasion by tho brig
ands is considered imminent. Large
numbers of these outlaws have assem
bled in the mountains in the vicinity of
the city and are committing most start
ling crimes. Traveling is rendered un
safe, and the inhabitants are forced to
remain within the city walls under the
protection of the authorities.
Turkey.
The troubles in Albania still continue,'
and the Porte bus dispatched two thou
sand troops against the insurgents. The
Poie and his influence enn hardly be
said to be entirely gone, when the pub
lication ot tne newspaper Tnrqnte has
been suspended by order of the Turkish

THE ITOBLD.
1871
The vcar 1871 bids fair to be one of the most
important and fruitful in our political history.
In it will be shaped the grt issues on which
the Presidential election of 18H2 must turn. It
will be an era of new political energy in the
s-outh, which, for the first time in twelve years,
comes unlettered iutos national canvass; and an
era oi connoent Dopes to tne uemoerauc party
everywhere. The superannuated issues on
wmcn tne Kamc&i party nave stood are pass
ing ont of Dolitics. and tlie blunderiue imbecili
ty and profligate extravagances of General
tyrant s administration need onlv to oe laithtui
ly exposed to turn the tide of public feeline
trontrlv atrainst it. In this, the oreat work of
the comimr vear. The Woblh will act no sec
ondary part, its location in the great focus of
national commerce and intelligence, the fresh
ness and abundance of its news, and its recog
nized position as tlie leading organ of the Dem
ocratic party, lay upon it a mission and apostle-

Xlie share allotted to Thk Wold in this com

to victory, is the dissemination of political
truth; a work which can be fruitful onlv in pro
