The Psper "now that Campbell was a treatment at the time this report was made. The report of the Superintendent is very ink-resting, tnd the statemeiit is made that hardly any two persons can agree as to the precise uniount of influence any particular cause 1ms had in the production ot insan- uy. It is said that all who profess to lie ex perts on the question of mental maladies agree upon one point, and that is that all hope of cure diminishes as the disease be comes older. If proper treatment is insti tuted in good time it is possible that the patient may get well, but if nut on too long the chances arc lessened. It must not be understood that every case of in sanity is curable, no matter how promptly the best treatment that science may suggest may be called in. We are quoting, in sub stance, from the report betore us, which states that a certain number of the insane are hojielesoly doomed from the outset of their ailment. There is no malady in the whole cate gory of diseases to which humanity is sub ject that appeals more strongly to our sym pathies than this one feature ot insanity To see a phvsicallv strong man or woman i he victim of a disease which deprives him or her ot distinguishing between right and wrong; w hich leaves them powerless to exercise the faculties of mind with which human nature is endowed, is indeed the saddeat of all allmcnu. and to all such our createst commiseration should go out, Xo more worthv charity could possibly Ik; fostered by the State, and we hope that the improvement.

Mr. Pillow rcc ivered several thous and dollars damages againsl the Coininy in the District t'oiirt and the Supreme Court has recently ' confirmed the judg ment, in ths following i pinion by Justice Uordou : We cann.it perceive Ihe force of the argument ot the counsel fur the plaintiff m error, w herein he endeavors to raise a distinction between accidents arising irom negligence in the equipment or management ufUic train, and tho aris .ug frum llid misconduct ol passengers upon it.

Judgment affirmed. The Boaud of Pardons. The board of pardons at its recent meeting considered thirty five applications, in. ten of which pardous were recommended to be granted, eight refused and the remainder held under advisement. Following is a list of those recommended for pardons : William Kelley, of Fayette, sentenced for bi.'fclaryLT.ttnng a uellar and carry ing away liquors. The petitions praying for a pardon indicated that he was an iru bee.ie and that he was drawi a into the crime by more experienced thieves. Antoine Loder, of Bradford county, sell icg liquor ia violation of law. I oder had a itu.u;c allowing Lini l6 self" beer in quaDtitie5 less than eve gallons, but ac cording to the application for pardon he had in his ignorance miscrinsT.rB.iM me law and soM tUe nialt an a larger scale. He w as sentenced on the otU of January, is7o. to thirty davs' imnrisooment and to pay a fine of tl'A The proecming at un'oey in a letter stated that according to bis opinion Loder did cot wilfully violate the law. Henry S. Rcigbart, of Philadelphia, sen tenced to seven years in Ihe penitentiary in lrXlO for perjury. P.eig'uaTt perjured Himself in behalf of" a friend, staling that he owned property to which he had no title whatever- He coramltteU the crime so that he could go bail for an as sociate.

The judge who sentenced him said that had he known at tho time what be found out afterward he would hare been much less severe. James Servisen, of Delaware county. selling liquor. He was con tided under a special law and sentenced to six months in prison. Of these he has served fire. In view of the imprisonment he has already undergone and the fact that his family is ucsiuuic una nis nenun iauing, iiis case was favorably considered. Samuel Mack, of Philadelphia, sentenc ed to eighteen months' imprisonment for larceny, llis offense consisted in remov ing shutters from a bouse and putting them on onevhich be fas repairing. The dis trict attorney was among those who sinn ed the application for pardon. John il Uovern, ot rittsburgb, sentenc ed in January. 18 72, to four years in the western penitentiary for forgery. Tho papers set forth that he (a youth) had been induced to perpetrate the offense bv expert criminals and without appreciating the enormity of the crime. The judge gives it as nis opinion tnat the forgery was more the result of youthful indiscretion than criminal intent The case was favorably considered for these vaiious reasons and tho additional one that through him an accomplished and successful forger was convicted. John Flemming. of Philadelphia, sen tenced in Uecemtier, is.., to two years and six months in prison for receiving stolen goods. Flemming, who is about sercnty years old, is represented to be in declining health and weak in mind. He is said to have pleaded guilty to save his aged wifu who was indicted with him. The prosecutor, who was among those w ho asked bis pardon, is of the opinion that tne o.d man was imposed on by the thieves. Richard Morris, of Montgomery, sen tenced in December, 1872, to two years and ten months in prison, for larceny. Applications in the following cases were refused : Dr. L. Vance, of Franklin, count', sen tenced on August 16, 187, to seven year and three niontl(S in, tiio penitentiary for inciting a boy to commit an outrage on a smalt gill. The lad was convicted and I nu.nctd, but obtained a pardon when the circumstances were laid before the governor, the board of pardons not having yet been constituted. Dr. Yance was convicted principally on the testimony of the boy. John Slurry, of .Northampton, arson. Abraham Martin, of York, assault and battery. tteorge Lynch, ot PhdHUelphia, larer.y W, Howard Williams, of Luzerne, rrmrialaughter. John llkinson, or Allegheny, larceny. John Frankfort, of Lancaster, larceny, John Bishoff, of Allegheny, receiving atoleri goodi. Henry lltines, of Lancaster, robbery. There seems to be an impression abroad that the governor is dilatory in issuine warrants lor the execution of convicted murderers. Tho cae4 referred to are either tied up in the Supreme Court on writs of error or the governor haa not received official notification of the action of the judicial triuuna',. In the Ortwein case (Allegheny county) the Supreme Court two weeks ago affirmed the Judg-j ment of the lower court, but the governor has not yet been officially notified, Lecture by Profcaavr Loom As promised by advertisement, our citi zens bad a rare treat on last iVdaV even ing, in a lecture bv Protlisor'C. L. Loos. f Bethany College, AVest Va. His sub ject '.'America in Europe" -was one of in crest to & large and appreciative au dience. The lecture was given under the auspices of tho Ladles' Mile Sock-ty, to procure aid lor the completion of the" Dis ciples' meeting-house. The court-room was well filled, and a bandsorrs3 ium thus placed in the band ; cj tho ladies to further the good, weak in w hich they so zealously Mar, Our ft pa co wilt only permit us to give an abstract of the remarks ot the learned lecturer. After introduction by Elder B.ittek Mr. Loos observed that at the birth ot the re public, and k-M fv (a more decades there after, the influence of America In urof was not so great as many supposed. The reasons for Ibis were various. The broad Atlantio was a barrier which few sur mounted. The old world received all in- tormat ion of us through British sources, and our "fond parent" had indulged in wholesale misrepresentations of her off spring. Most meagre and false were all the received stories regarding the now re public. A very eminent Ufcuuan professor declared, nf-er ke Lad been to America to hear and see for himself, that in all the public libraries of Europe there Yi'i not a Vmgle book giving just or fvtfert iofurma ion about our ctmUy uud its institutions. The sfiftrt-livijd French, iVpublie in part ur work had shaken the pillars of the thrones of Europe, and led the then all powerful ruling classes into unrelentcot mg hostility. Mapy pewits In sympathy with us duiHisied the experiment. We were then a small people, with little liter it u re, few newspapers, and scarcely any ships. tv e sec another thing to day, TV ri ing greatness ot this couuliy has chal lenged the aloiaoii of )l civilized men. The lecvuwer could scarevty stop to crow. )ur wonderful prosperity has excited in tense amazement in -Europf. "The enor .nous extent ot our land surpasses the be lief of the inhabitants. You have to take he map and point og,; ;a tiie dwellers in small countries tbe immense domain that lies between lb two oceans, the St. Law rence and the Kio Grande, before they are ible to obtain the faintest idea, of tke area of our giant republic.. Our great wealth is known ia Eurojiej even the peasants say, how rich 1 The endurance ot our country is per plexing to Europeans. Ten years was he limit of life assigned us by many ot heir wise men. Now, when our institu ions, like the tree of Horace, are grow ing leepcr and higher, no wofcdyt aftiajcmcni I levai.i. Our JVavy u,taus something in Europe now. Persons may talk as . they please about tho American marine, bat a respec table navy is an emblem of power, and that of tbe United States is known and respected in every European country. Europe is overrun with American trav ellers. Yankee men and women are on the Alps, in London, Paris, Itom.e, Ber lin, Vienna, St. Petersburg. American residents iro tUew by thousands. John Bull is "overtopped even in Paris. The first restaurant in the world is called Am erican. Tbe universities of England. Fiance, and Germany have many Ameri can student. It is a rare thing for European travellers men of culture to visit us, to see and know what we are. A notable exception is the gifted lie Tocqueville, whose per sonal study of us, given to the world in his splendid volumes, is pn enduring monument to Lij fOftdoeM and greatness. There is iu the correspondence of the immigrant; who have made this country their home a most subtfe influence. Let ters from friends and relatives wb have prospered here, and who tell their stories in simple eloquence, received in almost every hamlet, have aroused a wonderful love for our country. Ia Ireland, maidens drop their mi Ik. pails and men their hoes and slip down tbe green lanes to bear the story of the land of liberty. Servant-girls in uermany nave receye Urt irom their brothers, tnd, sometimes froon those dearer than Withers, and know the story.

The lecturer is a thorough believer in the good old JetTersoniaa doctrine of the right of the people to regulate their own affairs. Let the township elect its officers, let the county and State do likewise, and the people ot the nation choose its own rulers and through representatives enact its own laws. Even preachers are ap pointed in rrussia, and since the consoli dation of the Empire matters arc worse. The best men are afraid to settle the question of a free church in ii free state. They arc unable to conceive how religion can live w ithout state support. Kchgion does not suffer. A comparison shows that we have a lictter. purer, holier reli gion than the old world. McMahon appoints the Protestant clergy i in France, Bismarck chooses Catholic priests in Germany. Do not Americans by glorifying Bismarck lend an endorse ment to this adulteious union of church and state? It is an enormous mistake. America is doing herself immense harm by laudation of one of freedom's worst foes. In Europe flic people are unable to do anything of moment without government support The government owns part of every railroad, llere the people own them ; we have free development of enter prise. Civil power is suniemc in the United States ; In Europe just the reverse, to an extent not dreamed of here. Their armies are stretched to the utmost of nnwer Judge and jury are awed by the bayonet. The fact thit our army contains onlv 30 000 men is scarcely believed. In little Ireland are stationed 13,000 mounted dra goons, exclusive of an immense constabu lary force. A proportionate military forcj in this country would give Somerset aliout forty men to support. There are 60,000 gens d'armes in France and 400,000 soldiers ; about the same in Germany. You meet troops at every corner, and night, noon, and morning ia heard the everlasting drum. We have many enemies in Europe. All the monarchs, with the exception of the King of Wurtemberg, and chiefest among them, Wilhelm. Emperor of Ger many, are our toes. Wuca, lu 1S13, the people attempted to unloose the shackles of feudalism, this same Wilhelm declare! he would put them through, and mowed men down in the streets for (taring to as sert their inalienable rights. His brother was at that time king, and when Wilhelm inherited, the kingdom, seized the crown and placed it upon his own head, asserting that he w as chosen by the law of Christ and receded his crown direct from the Almighty ! Republican institutions meet with little favor at the. hands of such a man. Although Ireland wor.uipa us, when I reaclcd pious Glasgow I found myself chilled. I'lie men who pretend to be abolitionists hate us because they can no longer make money out of the slave-trade or by blockade-running. The same feel ing exists to a great extent in England. In Britain and Germany we have few friends. People go in tor the old, and distrust the new. Feudalism is still there. In France the ca;? is different. Free thinkers L&d evejved the great questions relative to the natural rights of man before the revolution. The French constitution of 1780 embrace ours. Its principles never die. Jt is law in France to-claj. Although there has been some regurgita tion, the minds ot the people have got hold ot It. To day it has an overwhelminz majority in the nation. This result ha: not been obtained without violent eonvul iuu. m me woms ot one oi ruci'; s Irtvor-'c poets : " Hot It urc j ii fcr Mere wrongs expire : fi'jr n'rc the bao-l That tn.m tbe ian-1 Vl'ruuti ttie ancient ei il.' In the noble little republic among the Altis Switzerland we see American in stitutions predominant. The S.wUi, too, bad their war of seceyioc, w'hieh they made short w;t:k of.

When asked why their constitution so much resembles ours, the Swiss reply : " We intended it to lie ; it was modeled upon the American." The people there are economical to a de gree unknown here. They have a stand ing army of enly 300 men ; little revenue is raised, salaries are small, thirst for office rare, and peculation unknown. The fruits of American genius are met with at every bind- Oar printing-presses, rerers,and sewing-rna'diines. have irous'1' us into prominent notice. America is creUitauly represented in the arts at tb,P various European galleries at Paris, Itoine, Florence. We are munifi cent patrons of the arts. In the greal bronze works at Munich the lecturer per ceived Hint the greater part of the work was to be sent to the Lnitcil Mates. When he saw an American eagle of im mense proportions, whose outstretched wings had just been cast, he could not re frain from singing "Hail Columbia," even in the presence of John wta stood behind him. The UoiJu uf nanv American authors are ow on the shelves of nearly all Eu ropean libraries. We are forced to omit more than a mere mention of the lecturer's description of the surprise of Europe at our immense civil work performed duruvr wc reoeuion uie building Oi ike Fw.uk. railroad. &c; their amazement at Die millions ol men raised on both sides, which knew no Umnils when they were rjuiotly disbanded am! resumed their former occupations. The orderly impeachment and acquittal of President Johnson excited much favorable comment on our institutions. Our task is not done. Let us show by our purity and smplictty that we ar e wortuy ol our republican miners, j.ci us banish corruption, extravagance, lust of power, from our broad and glorious land. Letus cheer every heart that aspires te lilierty and strengthen every hand that strives to obtain "freedom, and this voice and this action will be heard throughout the world.
