Oor neighbor of the Democrat, seems in
capable of comprehending tb difference be
tween Jeffersonisn and a Jeff Davis demo
crat This is not surprising in one who
can see no difference between a onion and
an unreconstructed reUl democrat ef tbe
present day.
We observe by the papers, that onr mem
far Oen. Case, was stopped very uncere
inonlontly, while attempting to make a
peech on the 15th Constitutional amend
ment on Wednesday of last week. The
corespondent of the Philadelphia Prm,
thus refers to tbe matter:
The first speaker was Mr. Ease, of Nor
thumberland, wbo, in a temporary season
-of good humor on tbe part of tbe House,
was greeted with bursts of applause of a
rather sarcastic character.
' Mr. Kase progressed by slow and easy
stages, reading a carefully prepared speech,
but being of somewhat an excitable temper
ament, several tiinps lost the thread of bis
discourse, and found difficulty in resuming.
He also found it necessary at intervals to
viae a lemon to clear his voice ; but, at a
momr.Dt when hit attention was attracted
to his manuscript speech, some irreverent
member filled tbe lemon with ink. The
result was rather disastrous upon the next
application of the lenion to the mouth of the
honorable speaker, whose remarks immedi
ately degenerated Into a rapid series of
personal denunciations. Rolling up his
manuscript, he retired into the cloak room
irst, however, using the lemon as a missile
to discharge at an adjoining member.
Tbe ludicrous affair having toiminated,
the regular Speaker of the Hons resumed
bis chair, nud the orderly consideration of
tha amendment was resumed.
Tkk following article from the Minert
Journal in relation to the discovery of new
coal veius in the Shtmokin coal region, wltl
be read with pleasure- by alt who take an
interest in the development of our great
mineral rcsourses :
"A very valuable discovery of coal veins
has been made on the luuds of the Fulton
Coal Company, near BliiimnUin, by tbe En
terprise Coal Company, lusaees. The veius
discovered are tbe Lykens Valley or Frank
lin, aud are sis and ten feet nine inches in
thickucss respectively, free of all impurities,
deep red ash, and somewhat harder than
the Fraukliii of Lykens district. The veins
underlie the "twins" (E. or the mammoth
vein whicb is divided) of the Shamukin
Coal Field about 200 yards, measuring at
right angles with the dip, and aro overlaid
by very heavy conglomerate rock. Tbe En
tcrpriso have comtnencod tbe development
(it both veius, nid intend erecting a first
class breaker at once. The veins are reach
ed by a drift near the centre of their tract,
with a run of 1C09 yards west, and with
breast 90 to 110 yards. They will also pro
bably sink a slope on the top vein (10 it. 9
in ) at ouce, which will give them a ruu of
3000 yards on both veins. Tho basin of
these veins is tbe deepest in the Shamokin
C'oul Field, and will furnish five or six heavy
lifts.
Tho discovery by tin Enterprise of these
veins at that point is particularly fortunate,
as the. veins lie so deep in the coal formation,
that they can seldom be reached in that
Field except by deep and expensive shafts." j
These two veins are evidently A and B,
the two lower veins of the Coal flaslu, or a
split of B or Buck Mountain Vein, though
larger veius frequently divide at certain
points.

show fteadtrs how ft member of Congress
It run flow b ky office banters, we publish
tbe following sketch of the eituatloi of af
fairs by ft Washington correspondent of tbe
Philadelphia Prm, which is not overdrawn,
bnt in some respects falls short of the reality t
"Every office seeker has mode of operat
ion which speaks volumes for bis originality,
and which needs bnt one thing to make it
easytnd successful, vis; that Gen. Grant, or
some other patron, shall think bimes im
portant as he thinks himself. A man comes
on here, who is ft mighty fellow in his little
village. lie is armed with lettcra from the
squire, testlmouial from ft Grant and Col
fat Club, a blank application, and two clean
shirts; and as he kisses his proud wife good
bye, to return postmaster, triumphant over
dozen competitors, be blames himself for
not having aimed higher. If Graot only
knew his wortb, he, the applicant, would be
a dispenser of post offices. One hundred
miles from home, be falls ft peg; in Wash
ington he is lost, and, estimating himself
more accurately, he fears for bis chances. He
finds that Grant will not read his glowing
testimonials, and tbe Postmaster General
files his application in ft box containing ten
for tbe same place. His member of Congress,
busy In the House end on the committees,
has not made tip his mind ts to the proper
matt for postmaster. Tremblingly the can
didate calls at his rooms at night, to see
the member alone. Alas I there are twenty
more important-looking men there, each
begging the member's particular influence
for b particular place; besides this, there are-1
two ot Ms rivals present, ana lie begins to
think of all tbe mean things bo ever did, and
wonders if tbey will be offered in evidence
against him. Besides all the visitors to an
noy him, be looks on the piles of letters on
tbe member's table, and he is startled when
the member tells him each letter is an ap
plication for an office, to obtain which the
heads of departments and the President
must be called on, and the claims mentioned
in the letters are, as a rule, "I am your con
stituent, end voted for you once," twice, or
three times, as the caso may be. Tho candi
date for postmaster fritters his time away in
Washington forming resolutions to see and
press his claims on big men, which he never
carries out, and, at last, when the clean shirts
aro thoroughly soiled, and the candidate's
money spent, he returns to his village but
little wiser or better. Soon be becomes vain
again, and, by a torrent of buncombe letters,
tries and secures what be failed to do in
person.
Your correspondent has of late been fre
quently at tbe rooms of a friend whose mis
fortune it is to be in Congress at this time,
and to honest thinking men who heretofore
may have felt themselves slighted by his not
replying to their letters, I will give a sketch
of the manner in which tbe gentleman pass
es his time, and the same may be said of
nearly every man in the Beuate and Congress,
and in it tbey can see an excuse for apparent
neglect. Eight o'clock is not late to rise
when a bardworked man stays up till one or
two in the morning. This is the case with
the gentleman referred to, who rises to Cud
some half dogen applicants waiting for his
influence before breakfast. lie rushes away
from them in time to meet the same number
at tbe door of the breakfast room, the chums
of each so important as to require the mem
ber's immediate presence nt one of tbe de
partments, lie succeeds in getting in to
break f ns t, nervous and excited. A feverish
sleep is a poor appetizer, but he knows he
must eat, though he would rather sleep. But
even at the table he finds himself attacked.
Some of the nspirauts have gained admission,
and the wretched member gulps down bis
food while he listens to the pressing claims
of some man w hose strength lies not in qoal
ideations, but in fact that ho has been insane
enough to vote with the party he deemed
right.
Breakfast over, tbe members walk from
the room with an office seeker ou each side,
one wanting oioi to go to tho Navy Depart
ment, the other constituent desiring that he
start for the Interior Department at once or
bis case is lost, and this accompanied by an
intimation that in case of failure the Repub
lican psrty will lose a vote, more particular
ly 'be member in question. At the door
tho troop is augmented by fresh arrivals,
some of them on tbe morning train, still big
in their local importance. Tho Congressman
must go to the Treasury, and in one half
hour attend tho meeting of one of bis com
mittees. Up to tbe Treasury he is dogged,
and after be leaves it he is again followed.
The committee room is sacred, and he finds
rest in its work till twelve o'clock, w hen tho
session begius, and with it another attack
from tho army of oflice seekers entrenched
in tbe lobby. Letter after letter aud card
after card, ate sent in through the
doorkeepers. He is perhaps iuterested in a
question before tie House, and feels it im
portant that his views should be recorded,
but excited and annoyed by the paper billets
he rushes out to see some man whom he
fctils it to be his duty to see, and in the lob
by another attack is made from men with
piles of papers and leugtby and self laudato
ry applications. He puts them off "call at
his rooms in the evening ; he will see them
and do w hat be can." He enters tbe hail of
the House again to be reassailed by the cards
and claims of a score of new arrivals, and be
yields again to tho clamor."
Thb National Ciieuit. The first bill
signed by President Grant was ''an act to
strengthen the public credit," which was
passed by the House of Representatives by
a vote of 97 yeas to 47 nays, aud by the
Senate 43 yeas to 13 nays. Tho law is as
follows: L'c il tnactikl.etc, That in order
to remove any doubts as to tbe purpose of

the public credit, and to settle
conflicting questions and interpretations of
laws, by virtue of which such obligations
have been contracted, it is hereby provided
and declared that the faith of the United
Mates is solemnly pledged to the payment
in coin, or its equivalent, of all tbe interest
bearing obligations of the United States,
except in cases where the law authorizing
the issue of any such obligations has express
ly provided that the same may be paid in
lawful money or other currency than gold
or silver; but none of aucb interest bearing
obligations not already due shall be redeem

Therefore, the Committee have decided to
do as they have done in other counties in
similar circumstances heretofore, believing
that that is the most speedy manner to set
tle this maUer, and that in this way both
parties may be benefitted by settling this
mattor while everything is going on as usual,
and not left until soma' future time, and
thee, perhaps, try to settle It when there is
aa emergency upon us ;

a committee of three to meet our committee,
either in Wilksbarre, Pittston or Scronton,
at any time (after due notice) before the 3d

The Fisii Question. We suppose that
tbe Legislature will adjourn iu two weeks
from this time, but there is still time enough
to pass a law opening tho dams on tbe Sus
quehanna for the admission of shad and
other migratory fish. This duty, it having
bean decided, if done at all must be done
at tbe expense of the state, bow well it
would rook if tbe many bad schemes before
the Legislature would be thrown aside and
this one to restock our streams with fish
would meet prompt action of the Legisla
ture f The report of Col. James Worrall,
the State Fish Commissioner, having in
charge the Fish question, for a copy ol
which we are indebted to Mr. Ilamersly,
the attentive Clerk of tho Senate, is a very
interesting document, and were its sugges
tions carried out many of the streams of the
State would yield such an annua! supply of
ffsh as would prove of the utmost impor
tance to the sumptuary welfare of the people.

Horrible Mardr ana Suicide.
PiitLATM.rnfA, March 80. A horrible
murder was committed hers yesler day under
peculiar eirenqtstancee. Jiarly yesterday
morning ft mis threw himself into the Del
aware and drowned. Subsequently hand
kerchief wai found la the water bearing tbe
name of BJackatone. Thie afternoon the
body wee recovered and found to be Black
atone, Of the firm of llureton ek Blackstono,
picture frame makers, 913 Market street.
The body was sent to his bouse in the ex.
rreme northwestern part of the city. Arri
ving there the parties found another party
of police in possession, and that Blackatone'a
wife and two small children were dead,
chopped to Diecca with an axe.
It appears that previous, to committing I
the act, yesterday, Blackstone wrote a letter
to his wife's father, in Connecticut, saying
that he bad killed bis Wife and children and
would kill himself. Parties in Connecticut,
this 2 p. m., then telegraphed to the police
authorities here, who went to the bouse and
found the dead bodies as before Stated, aud
were investigating the case when the dead
body of the father was brongbt in. On
Blackstone's body was found a paper stating
that be bad been robbed and was ruined
man, and giving this as tbe reason for tbe
deed. Tbo wlfo appears to have been killed
while lighting a fire in a stove, on Monday
morning, as the neighbors beard a noise
about that time. The children were killed
up stairs, and carried down stairs and laid
at the feet of the mother. Blackstone was
probably insane.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
By inquiry of the proper persons, we as
certained at a late hour last night that the
report that the defalcation of a clerk caused
the insanity, murder nnd suididc, is not true.
The deficiency in the cash account was a
comparative trifle. Besides, the father of
Mr. Blackstone, who lives in Madison, Con
necticut, is worth $10,000 or $50,000. It is
now believed that the sole cause of tbe mur
der was insanity. Blackstone lived on the
best terms with his wife, was very affection
ate with bis children, and to everybody kind
and liberal. He was temperate, moral and
a strict church member. But for some weeks
be has acted strangely, though no one seems
to have suspected that his mind was affect
ed. These, at least, are the statements of
those who were intimate with him, and ac
quainted with bis business relations.
It has also been ascertained that about six
o'clock on Monday morning a next door
neighbor heard a dull, thumping sound in
Blackstone's kitchen. She thought that
Mrs. Blackstone was moving tubs, and gave
no further thought to the matter.
The bodies of the entire family have been
removed to the bouse of Cyrus Home, un
dertaker, Eleventh andMaiket streets.
Horrible Murder.
A shocking murder was committed in the
Twentieth ward, Philadelphia, at an early
hour ou Wednesday night of last week.
The scene of the murder was "Girard Hall,"
corner of Sixth street antl Girard avenue.
Joseph W. Smith, the janitor of the ball, a
young man aged about twenty-eight years,
was found there dead, and under circum
stances which leave no doubt that he was
foully murdered. When discovered be was
lying ou a table in bis shirtsleeves, wtap
pud in a quilt, his lees and arms tied with
a rope, and gagged by a handkerchief tied
around bis mouth and head. He was shot
in the bead, over the right temple, with a
pistol ball, and the pistol, a four barreled
revolver, was fouud by bis side. The GMe
says : "Tho table was covered with blood,
aud his face aud bands were much scratched.
There was a broken chnir in the room,
which is a ball used by societies, and sever
al boards were fouud torn up. The Inst
seen of the deceased was about four o'clock
iu the afternoon, and shortly after a pistol
shot was heard. Tho deceased wns a bin
gle man. The cae is enveloped is much
mystery,, and tbe whole lorce of the
detectives is engaged in etvlouvoring ti
ferret out the murderer. Deputy Coroner
Fletcher has the pitdol, handkerchief and
sash in possession, awaiting developments.
This is one of tho most cruel aud barbar
ous murders that we recollect ever having
been committed in this city, and every effort
w ill bo made to find aut the perpetrator.
The most intense excitement prevails
throughout the neighborhood, and an exci
ted crowd surrounded the home and gath
ered in the neighborhood dining the night,
talking over the tragic affair.
Terrible Torpedo I3x1omIou.

FATALLY INJUItSD.
A fata! accident took place in Church
Run yettertlav, resulting in the instant death
of A. I). Oritfiu, W. II. Todd nnd William
Bills, and the fatal injury of Col. P. David
son. The accident occurred about 4 J -o'clock,
at tho ollice of Col. Davidson, on the
territory leased him on Church Hun, about
ono mile from the city. Tho parties were
engaged iu preparing a torpedo for one of
the wells. While Griffin, Todd and Bills
were standing about the torpedo, jarriug
down the charge, Col, Davidsou was about
walking toward the door. It is thought
that the charge contained about six pounds
of fulminating powder (Cul. Davidson's iu
veution,) while about twenty additional
pounds weie lying near. Tho explosion re
sulted from percussion, and the shock was
preceptibly felt all over tho entire city. The
building was, of course, blown into fiag
meuu, and its inmates, with the exception
of Mr. Davidson, were instantly killed.
Their clothing was almost entirely stripped
from their bodies, w hich were shockingly
lacerated in every part. A crowd of men
was speedily gathered from tho vicinity.
Col. Davidson was found to be conscious,
but utterly helpless, und experiencing tho
iutenscst pain, liis right thigh was severed
to the bone, as though laid open by un axe,
and his chest, back, arms and bead were
covered with ghastly burns, his face burned
to a crisp, and the sight of one eyo destroy
ed. His first inquiries were concerning the
fate ot his companions, whom bo feared
were moro severely hurt, and desired that
tbey should be attended. A litter was con
structed, upon which as speedily aa possible
he was borne to the Bush House aud placed
under medical treatment. The remains of
Gritiin, Todd and Bills were conveyed to tho
city, and placed in charge of the acting
Coroner, Justice 8trouse,aod an inquest was
in progress last evening. Tituicille (Pa.)
