(wilt thereto our county coinmKilenorn win no doubt ha'eu slowly te aolect it alto nnd advertise for proposals for plans and hk:c1 hk:c1 llcitlena for the new prison. And this reminds us that our fellow -townsman, Jehn i:ans, arclutect, Heme tlme ngeltncnled a plan for a uowjnlltnlie con structed en an entirely dlllereut prlnclple thin any ether ever built Ordinarily, Iho Jail la built Inside the Jail-yard. Mr. llvans proposes te build the jard luslile the Jail. In ether werdH,hIs plan contemplates aoemploto clrcle el cells, placed back te back, the In terior cells opening Inte a large court or yard In which will be placed four large work werk work ahepa, togethor with the ateam heating ap- liaiu3, uAKury, Hiiciitju anu lauuury. liie euter circle of cells es)ti Inte an outer corri dor, which Is enclosed within n heavy circu lar wall, pierced with a sulllclent number el grated windows le glve light nnd ventilation te the cells. The dlsmeter or tlie clrcle of cells, accord ing te Mr. Kvana' plan, is 3b0 root, made bv 4S tangents or straight linen, making loe cells en each iloer or 320 en the two Hours. 'Iho calls are te be 0 by 15 feet oaeh placed be tween the walla, back te back, and lighted from the euter walla. The corrldera will lie 15 feet wide. The frenta or the cells will be of epen Iren work, partly glazed with ham mered plate; the galleries nnd Htalmaa of Iren. In tlie centre of the court yard will be n three mery building with Iren tank en top for water Hupply j all the structures te lie lire proof and burglar proof, anil overy part ventllnted ami heated by Meam. Mr. Kvaus' plan leeks very well en paper, and iirchltecU who have examlned It are favorably lmproased with It. Auieng many ether mlvantnges claliued for It Is that It is inore compact than any ethor Jail plan; that It Is belter lighted nnd ventilated than any ethor; that the cells are large enough te ghe convicts the noceasary amount of Ireah air ; that the distauce from the centre te nuy part of the building la less than in any ether Plan j the drainage will be better and cost less j that tlie hteam beating pipes being In the corrldera and net In thecella, will mipply a uniform beat te all pirts or the building. As the clrcle of cells Is cut by corridors nt right angles with oaeh ether, Itlnlljw.i that no matter which way the wind blows the Jail must get the bonellt or It ; nnd It will also lie seen that every cell will have the boneiltel sunlight at some tlme or the day. There are many ether details In Mr. hvana plan that are worth consideration, and will no doubt ricolve It at the hands of parties Interested. The plan or the Jail was net made for Lancaster county, nor has It been presented te the county commissioners for adoption, but brehably it will be, arter they shall have asked for plans mid speclllc.i tlens. As our local astronomer Hush has dlsoevoroU that the heavenly bodies uiove In circular and net clllptle orbits, se our local architect has discovered that the clrcle is the best form for a Jail In which te keep the earthly bodies who uilsbebave themselves.

As 1 am rosiietislhlo for a great deal of the agitation it is but properthat I should l per milled te siMiak ti as large an sudlonce as that which listened te these who have criti cised, misconstrued and distorted the words and the Idea Intended te be conveyed by my utterances et October 1, when I'rancls l'arrell Introduced uie te the meeting assembled In the armory. I staUxl te the meeting that It was at my request that Mr. l'arrell, a ropro repro ropre souutlvo of the colored race, introluced me; It was left le ma te tnake the seloctleu and I did It after mature dollberatieu nnd careful thought I have net neon nor heard an argu ment slnce then that would cause me te de dltlerently te-day. Critics have seen lit te decide what I meant by selecting this man te Introduce me and they have asserted tliat my niiuii iiiuai reuaruuci in me iigui ei an atlaCK iieu tholawsef social eiuallty. A part of the pros ortheSouth has attacked In a most un justifiable manner n man, who under the Hag and constitution or his country, solected anether man and a cltlen of the republic te iwrfurin a publle duty In a public place. In acknowledging his Introduction I rorbrred te the prejudice which oxlsted against the colored man. If previous te that 1 had any doubts that a prejudice oxlsted they have been removed by the hasty and lnoensldorato actions el these who wero se quick te see an Insult whero nnne was attended. "My sole object In selecting a colerod man tolntredu e me was te enceurage and help te uplllt bis racofrem a Imtidagu werse than that which held blm lu chains twenty-live jears age, viz, mental slavery. I desired te impress upon the minds or whlte and black that the same result fellow oil action In the Held of labor whether that ac tion was en the part of the Caucasian or negre labor. As te social equality the sanctity of the liroslde clrcle cannot be Invaded by tnose who are net wel come. Kvery man lias the right te say who shall onler Iwjueath his reef, who shall occupy the same lied, private conveyance or such ethor places as he Is master of. My critics lnnolergotten that persenal liberty and so cial equality stand slde by slde. They would deny me the right te make my own seloctleu as te which of the assembled representatives should perform a certaln duty. Had I se lected the colerod man te Introduce Hev. Loe it would have been qulte another thing. It Is (lerhaps unfortunate that our coming was at n tlme when political excitement ran high and all things snrv ed as excuses ler these who wlslied te use them. When I heard that thore was a likelihood of trouble because .Mr. l'arrell attended a place or amusement, I asked or him net te subject hlmsell te Insult by going where he was net welcome. He told me that he had no Inten tion or again going te that or any ether place where his prosenco would give rlse te com ment I'ntil that tlme I did net knew that colerod moil were denied admittance te thea tres In this city. " While I hae no wish te Intorfere with the social relations which exist between the races In the Seuth, 1 liave a strong desire te bee the black man educated. Southern labor, regardless or Its color, must learn te read and write. notuiiern cheap labor is inore a menace te the American teller than the Chinese, and this labor must be educated. Will my critics show me hew the laws or social equality will be banned by educating the black man se that be may knew hew te conduct himself as a gentle man Will they explain hew a knowl knewl edge or the laws or his country will cause n man te vielate the laws et neclal equality? Will they In a cool, dlspvtslonate manner explain te me whether an education will net eleute the moral standard of the col ored man and will they tell mu that such it thing Is net necessary ? Will It be explained te me whether the black man should con tinuotework for starvation wages with sa manynblo-bedlod colerod men In the Seuth who de net knew enough le ask for living wages? It Is net hard le guess that whlle this race continues te increase In numbers and Iguorance prosperity will net even knock at the deer, much less i nter the home, of the .Southern laborer, and that country that has an abundance of Ill-fed, ill-bred laborers Is net nor cannot be a prosperous ene. "There need be no further cause for alarm. The colerod representatives te thlsceiiv entlen will net Intrude where they are net wanted, and the tlme honored laws or social equality will be allowed te alu m boraleng undisturbed. The equality el American citirens Is all that we insist en, and that equality must net be trampled upon. We are hore under no Invi tation from nuy one. We came of our ew n Iree will atitl accord and are paying our own way , thoreferu such gratuitous Insults as thoseotlorod by a few mischievous meddlers are net In order and de net admit of defence. een though given in behairer the lawsef so cial equality. Te the convention I soy let no member surrender nu leta or the Intel lectual freedom Isx-aiise of any clamor.

HBtVUTMH Uf TUB MAJUH1TY. Tin Pallary of the I'miilhitlen Argument llrlclly and Emphatically KpeMl, Frem the I'lillndeltiula Itccerd, The prohibitory liquor resolution of the KopuhllcatiHlate convention Is dorendod en the ground that it Is In strict accerdance with the Jollersonlau Idea " of the rule of the ma jority." This Is a very platislble theory in a government In which the majority is sup sup sup poaed te make the laws but Jellersen nover inculcated such a doctrine. The " Jellerson Jellorsen Jellersen Ian Idea " Is that all men have certain "Inalionable rights," and that "among theiu are llfe, liberty and the pursuit of hap hap plness." These rights, being Inalienable, cannot be aubjocted te the rule of a malerltr. When these inherent rights are assailed It makes no dilferonce in the Joirersonlan idea whother the act of tyranny is dene by a single desjiet or by a innjerlty of ten thou sand. " Hut who shall decide this utinstinn nr. cent the people 7" exclaim the promoters of this unlimited sway of the majority ever the happiness and liberty of the rest of thelr neighbor. The right reason or men must be the only arbiter. When a majority has enacted a wrong and an oppression Inte law the minority must, or course, submit or suirer the ienalty of disobedience. Hut until the wrong be consummated It is the duty of tliose who have hlglier conceptions of right te resist by all means In their power, and net te go with a multitude te commit an Iniquity. The doctrlne of the divine right of tlie ma jority would sanction overy crlme that ma jorities, real or prntonded, have committed under the forms of laws nnd constitutions. The confiscation under the law of Pennsyl vania of millions et capital that has been in vested In manufactures with the protection and sancUonerthostatowould be an iniquity. The passage of a law prohibiting the manu facture of ilquern In Pennsylvania would ef fect Just such a sweeping confiscation of prop erty Invested In breweries and distilleries. Would this be any less an iniquity it dene by a majority under the form of an amend ment te the constitution ? What mere odious act of tyranny could lie Imagined than the promulgation by nn absolute monarch et a decree that from and after such a day the use of spirits, wine and beer should be prohibited lu his dominions 7 This, accord ing te the Jeirorsenlan Idea, would boa high handed Invasion of the Inahenable right te liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It would be uone the less an act of tyranny If committed by a majority of 1,0U0 or 10,000 In a stale. Whenever a majority in the state has attulned that degree of discipline that it prefers rain water te all ether drinks, let It be content with Its superior virtue instead of attempting te intorfere with a mlnortty,how mlnertty,how mlnortty,hew over large and small, which bellevts, no matter hew perversely in the estimation of me aquarians, mai wiue anu iieer are essen tial for Its health and enjoyment. When the majority Invades this boundary that belengs te tastes and customs hitherto utiassalled by government It exercises an odious tyranny. If Prohibition be Incapable of becoming n universal law because It Interferes with the health, customs, tastes and happiness el mul titudes of men, the question of Its adoption should net be submitted te the decision of a majority. The socialistic philosophers who demand that accumulations of property shall be limited, that wealth shall be divided In equltable proportions, and that the Individual shall be absorbed and UUced by the state, expect te accomplish thelr ends through majorities at the bnllet-txix. They, tee, with the onceuragoment they are recelving, will be coming along after awhile with their con stitutional amendments for a now-fratne of society, for a redistribution el property, and for forming all the citlens Inte phalansteries and workshops with a common stock of capital and labor under the supreme control of the state. Why net' They can in sist with the same plausibility as de the Pro Pre Pro hlbitleuisUioii the divliie right of the major ity te de a wrong. Their notieus of individ ual liberty are Just as clear as are the notions of these who maintain that a majority in the state has a right te prescribe what a minority shall or shall net drink. The poeplo who preach or upheld this doctrine of the power of majorities are doing mere te confue the Ideas of persenal freedom and rights of prop erty than has all that Karl Marx, Lasalle and the rest of the Socialist leaders hav e ev or ac complished. 1IUHS ly DUVMUItE.
