of a definite character. Pure nnd foul

especially sickening at present. How

it is certain nothing more can be de

charge a desire1 to the Republicans of
wishing -to secure party power nnd tin'
dispensing of patronage to control

One way of Jising of a matter is
to talk it Into or ut ot existence.
Agitate nnd it can soon be .known what
the actual worth of n plan is or how
much it passes for among those whom
it interests. Talking railroad is stale,
nnd anything said at this time in ad
vocacy of their utility is trite enough
to those who have given thought to
the work. Wo have been publishing
a scries of communications to the Pitts
burgh Commercial, by citizens of our
county, one this week, containing in
them many reasons why we should
have an outlet for trade. In the pro
secution of the project as set forth by
the writers mentioned, the aim it np
pftns is to enlist Pittsburgh capital in
the cnterpri.se, which is a sieming apol
ogy for the otherwise strange idea of
going abroad fur aid in developing
home resources. It is well enough to
secure the co-operation of capital lor
pushing improvement, but the sooner
it is ascertained that cur land-holders
along the th-sirt d route, nnd popular
cxpn s-ion, favors its cause, the sooner
capital will be persuaded of earnest
ness in the premises. Ifwcniav be
lieve our own cars and eyes, railroad
fruit is fist ripening, and whether it
falls to the ground and decays or is
taken tip and used depends more upon
home vigilance than foreign capital.
Our people ere "waiting for something
to turn up," when in reality they
should turn up something, Commu
nicate your thoughts and wishes to the
publio through the local press, hold
meetings and move the subject, carry
it into the family circle and discuss the
question if needs be, pray for a rail
rend ! .Men, whom wc believed un
willing to give a cent for any enter
prise, we have beard of late express

made towards the completion of ;!l8 ; George V. Lnvrencc and myself with
Chart ier.s Valley Railroad between
Pittsburgh and Washington, Pa., has
just been commenced in Canou.thurg,
and judging from tho interest manifes
ted a! a meeting held on the lSlil in
sianl, the prospects, are fair for an early
completion. It was slated that the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company were
willing to go on and fiui-h the road
in .six months, provided the farmers
and properly owners along the route
would subscribe 8-00,000, no portion
of which is to be paid until the road is
completed aal the cars running.
Within a few weeks past, Mr. Westley
Greer obtained a fair amount of sub
scriptions from farmers on tho line of
the road, and many more persons were
anxious to subscribe provided they hail
assurances that the road would be built
in a reasonable time. In order there
fore that a definite proposition might
he obtained from the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, a committee, com
prising William McKcnnan, Esq., Mr.
Westley Greer, and M.-.nsfield B.

pointed to visit Philadelphia and con

road. This committee are now attend
ing lo the duly of their appointment,
and in a few days the ultimatum of
the Pennsylvania road will be known.
A committee of six were appointed
hy the meeting (three ftom Washing

county,) to proceed with the subscrip

Jso. W. Wallace, Esq., of New

date for Congressional honors in the
Lawrence County Convention. It
would be unntitural, because Greene
County asserts her claim to the dis
tinction of sending tho next represen
tative to Congress, if every County in
the District did not present its man.
Daniel Webster well said: "The
right of revolution always exists, hnd
there may be such a degree of oppress
ion as fully to justify it !"
A STKOXO movement is developing
in Pittsburgh to bring forward as the
candidate for the Congressional honors
of the twenty-second district Maj. Gen.
James S. Neglcy, who represented
Pennsylvania with such distinguished
ability and conspicuous gallantry on
the fields of Stone River and Perry

the merit that is claimed for him. lie

Many of our ladies will remember
being called upon at their residences,
last fill, by a "lady" agent going
around ami selling ladies' "corsets"
and fitting them at a remarkably low
price. Recently, in an interior town
in this State, the very same woman by
the cheapness of her stock, and a de
cided and unwarranted partiality shown
a beautiful lady customer,aroused sus
picion, and on the "lady" being arrest
ed she was found to be a young man
in disguise fitting and selling just for
the fun of the thing. He says ho has
passed through Eiston, AUentown,
Rending, Pottsvillc and many other
towns, fitting corsets to several thous
and young latlies. AUentown (Pa.)

A "young lady" of the same des
cription made this section a visit about
tho time stated, but, wc venture to
say, none of our young ladies would !
allow manor woman to fit them a
corset. They would faint at the men
tion of it.
A. Johnson may,after his disgrace
ful dismissal from the Presidency hold
State ollices. The Constitution of the
United States (article 1, section 3) pro
vides that "Judgment in cases of im
peachment shall not extend beyond
removal fromoffice and disqualification
to hold and enjoy nny office of honor
trust or profit under tho United
States." In case of Andrew Johnson's
conviction in tho pending impeach
ment trial, lie will be disqualified for
holding any office under tnc United
States Government. But ho will not
bo deprived of citizenship, and if anv
State, county or city or town want
him for n loal position, he will still
ba eligible to an election. lie may
even bo an Alderman ngain, provid
ed ho can obtain votes enough to elect
him.
Is addition to the bill prohihitinag
person having any "visible admixture"
of negro blood from voting, the Ohio
Legislature have introduced another
disfranchising all college and seminar'
students, of whatever age. The only
exception is in those cases where the
uarents of Student live in the county
and township where the institution is
situated. It is estimated that some
10,000 students will be deprived of the
ballot if this becomes a law,
A correspondent of ono of the De

may work at me ten years and you

J, Foreigner. I was recently informed by
an intelligent Democrat that a leading
tinancinl doctrine of the party is the
equal' taxation of all kinds of prop
erty. . .
Jkmocrid. Yes : that refer to the
Government bonds, which are unjustly
exempt from taxation, whila all other
kinds of property nro taxed.' '
For. And do you rejar l the debt
of the nation as on a pat with all
other kinds of property. , ..
Dun. Certainly. 'Why not?; '.
For. Because, if that wore (rue, then
tho more the nation were in debt the
richer it would be. '
Dem. No 1 Because this is a debt
duo from one class of people to anoth
er from the ta.i-pnyers to tho bond
holders. Of course such a debt does
not add to thu total-wealth, of tho
country. - i i
For. If it is a debt dim from the
tax-payers to the bondholders, then
whatever increases the rate of interest
upon it or theamoiiut of tho principal
adtls so much to what tho tux-payers
have to pay.
LUm. Yes, I Htippoio so. 1
For. And have vou not always heard
that the "borrower is the servant of
the lender," meaning that tho lender
could lend where he pleased, bat that
thu borrower nust borrow where he
can. Thu lender to a government
will lend or not, as the rate of inter
est suits hiio. If the Government of
fers live per cent, mid he would lend
at live, then, if the Government, im
poses to tax tho loan oiie percent, he
will only lend at six. Has not every
proposition introduced into Congress
for taxing tho bonds recognized these
Units by adding to the rati) of interest
payable on the hon 1 a percentage
exactly equal to dm amount ot tax it
was proposed to collect from tho bond
holder. J km. Yes, I ndmit that on all new
loans, if it were known in advance
that the bonds were going to ho taxed
an additional rate of interest would bo
charged, equal to the tax imposed.
For. And this additional rate of in
terest must be paitl by the tax-payers ;
so that if it were proposotl to tax all
the interest-paving part of the nation
al debt, viz, 5:2,000,OI)0,OUO one pol
ecat., exactly fJ-JO.OOO.OO'J more inter
est would have lo be collected from
thu tax-payers to pay it with? How
would this benefit the tax-payers.
IJi'M. AH,- lint you art! suiujusiug
that the tax is levied before thu loans
so that tin creditors of the
it h ive notice f it. We
are proposing to tax tho bonds al
ready issii'sl. Such a tax we think
would fall on the bondholder would
it not.
For. In the first instance it certain
Iv would. But in the long run it
would fall upon the tax-pavers. But
docs not the i )c:no Tatie party profess
to be bound by (nu Constitution ol
tlie Liiitoil htates upon ail ques
tions.
Jim. les. 1 lie l.im.slilutnm as
construed bv the Supreme Court
Fr. But that, court has tit least
three times decided that 110 State of
orotlierloc.il government within the
limilsoi'the United Slates had the power
under the Constitution to tax tho
bonds of tin United States.
Dan. Indeed! . I have read 'the
Constitution through, ami found noth
ing whatever 011 the point.
For. Did yoa not find two clause,
ono authorizing digress to "borrow
money on the credit of the United
States," and the other declaring
iho National Constitution, and the
laws made in pursuance thereof
to be supreme over any law of tho
States?
Dem. Yes. But I fiil to see how
that prevents a Stato from taxing a
national bond.
For. If a State can tax it ono per
cent. 011 the interest, can they not
tax it six per cent ? And is not a tax
of six per cent, annually equal to a tax
of 100 per cent, on the principal, and
so absolute repudiation ? And would
not that make the power ol the nation
to borrow completely dependent up
on, and subordinate. to, tho power of a
.tate to tax.
J)ch. Well, if tho object to be at
tained is right, there mint be some
way to accomplish it. Certainly there
is no justice in taxing the property of
tax-payers ami leaving the property ot
bondholders untaxed.
For. Why not? Have we not seen
that the exemption of the bonds from
taxation lowcra tho rate of interest by
so much, and consequently lessens the
amount to be paid by the tax-payers
by i20,OO-),OO0 per annum, ami that
tho benefits of tins rcduetiou are dis
tributed among the tax-payers exactly
in proportion to tho amount of taxes
they pay ? Can there bo any fairer
mode of dividing tho benefits of the
exemption of bonds from taxation than
to divi.de it among the tax-payers in
proportion to the amount for which
they are taxable?
Dem. Well that is not exactly the
point of view from-whioh I looked at
it. It has looked to me very much
like the oppression of tho poor tax
payers for the sake of tho rich bond
holders. '
For. Now you arc returning to a
point upon which I -was talking with
a member of your party the other day.
He did not seem to have read Hora
tio Seymour's speech at the New York
State Convention, in which ho shows
that. the bondholders are, ns a class,
much poorer than the taxpayers, and
that most of the national debt is own
ed by the poorer classes.
Dem. Yon refer to tho fiet that de
posits in Saving Banks, and the capi
tal of tho insurance nnd banking corn
panic!, have taken that form.
For. Yes, tlw attempt to divide the
American people into two; classes, and
call one taxpayers and anotner bona
to divide 1 tliii AntU ' producers and
consumers, or into buyers and sellers. '
j. on aro ttu-payer-ana ton are all
bondholders, whether you' desire 'to? lie
or aro even conciotis of being so or not.

Tho New York Tribune, in nn arti
cle taking ft survey of the Presidential
field, starting' out with Grant as the
Republican candidate, nnd Pendleton
the candidate of the Pemocrats, comes
to the conclusion that it "is: morally
impossible that tho Sham Democracy
should elect the next President." In

fails to mention thu strongest, to wit :
tho general coufideueo iu Gen. Grant
whereby ho .will reoievo tuns of thou

Whoever is familiar with tho public
mind, realizes that he fits perfectly its
ercat want stability ,nnd honesty.
This is better than nny platform that
can bo framed. Frame the most per
fect platform possible, and without this
want satisfied in tho candid ite, the
platform would be of little avail.
There is something remarkable in the
hold General Grant has on the confi
dence of the nation. Nor is it on ac
count of his military achievments.
great ns they have been. He has
boon tested and wcar-i like steel. If
he is not a complete statesman ho is
not a politician, but is a iuau of great
good Jsense, perfectly familiar with tho
public service, complicated by no en
tangling alliance, honest as tho sun,
self-reliant, invincible in determine
and equal to the thorough per
formance of any duty. As President
ho will have a polity. Ho has filled a
position of weightier responsibilities
than the president ial oflice, and his
manhood has been tested in tho sever
est trial that ever fell to ono of our
countrymen to endure. It is impossi
ble that there should bo nny mistake
as to the kind of a man General Grant
is, and just hero is tho secret of his
strength with tho people. The coun
try recognizes in him tho. true ptwiftea

From the prominence of tho parties,
and their previous good standing, the
trial is eliciting a wide-spread interest.
It will probaby bo concluded this
week.
A Him Art
General Buchanan, in command of
the Fifth Military District, has issued
a circular, that reports have como to
him that freedmen, who nro laboring
on plantations, under regular contracts
are being discharged, or aro threatened
with dischnrgo by their employer, on
account of t.ieir participation in the
existing political contest in that State.
All such employers are notified that no
action. of the sort will bo tolerate?,
and any platiter wdio discharges a
frcedman for such catne, will bo held
bound by tho tonus of his contract
with sinih freed non. If tin contract
is on shares, it will hu held that the
frcedman is entitled to his share of the
proceeds of the crop when sold ; If for
wages, tho freed men will bo entitled
to receive wages from tho dalo of his
discharge, iu addition to tho amount
dun him at that tlate, or provided for
by existing State laws,
tunnll.'i Without Itiitlruntli.
The Ilnrrisburg Telegraph calls nur
attention lo the iiict that the only
counties in Pennsylvania through
which no railroad passes, and tho limits
of which are uot likely to bo touched
by a railroad, aro' Fulton, Forest,
Potter anil Greene. ' Tho Buffalo and
Washington Railroad, now in proecs3
of construction, will approach nearly
to Potter county, while the lately
projected Greensboro and Browsville
road, it is hoped, will be extended to
Waynesburg, in this county. There
is n vast amount of railroad work now
in progress in this State, a fact which
we are gratified to ascribe to an ener
getic spirit ol focal dcvelopeinent.
Thus the illimitable resouces of wealth
as yet scarcely touched in Pennsylva
nia, nro to be rapidly brought to light
by tho genius of public enterprise.
The remains of the great raider
John Morgan, were recently taken up
from the spot where ho fell, and on the
17th of this month they wcro reinter
rcd at bis old home in Kentucky. His
funeral was made tho occasion of a
tremendous gathering of tho Confed
erate element which is still so- strong
in Kentucky. Morgan's old compan
ions in arms, headed by their old offi
cers, led the procession, nnd then fol
lowed various other Confederate celebrities.
The Tribune is losing its patience
with tho impeachment sjiceches, and
delivers itself this wise: "Gentlemen,
you aro ma'::ng very stupid speeches!
No one reads them! They will not
affect a vote one way or another. This
wate of time and endless stream of
"gab" arc merely evidences' of vanity,
and you have no right to thrust your
selves iu the way at a time when every
hour of delay is an injury io tho coun
try." At Buffalo, on the 1st inst., the
propellor, Governor Cnshman, owned
by Dwight Scott, of Cleveland, while
moving out of tho creek for Port Col
burn, exploded her boiler, killing
eleven persons and injuring three.
The vessel 1s a complete wreck. She
was valued at 837,500, partly insured,
and contained 20,000 bushels of wheat.
Ono of the deck bands was thrown a
height of ono hundred and fifty feet.
Tun Lynchburg, Virginia, Adverti
ser of Friday, has over fifty thousand
acres of land in that State advertised
in its columns. On Thursday ono
hundred and ten acres in Henrico
county, five miles below Richmond
were sold nt five dollars per acre, and.
six hundred and twenty acres on the
York river railroad, fifteen miles be
low Richmond, at 85 25 per acre.
