LEGISLATIVE REFORM.
There is one point in the discussion
of this question upon which the Rad
cnls preserveasignificantsilence. Here
tofore, amendments agreed 011 in con
vention have been subinittted to the
people for adoption. Is this to be done
now? The people want to know. The
tendencies of the times are revolu
tionary. The party in power are un
scrupulous, treacherous and cowardly.
What they dare not propose- openly
they will effect by stealth if they can.
It has, when occasion seemed to require,
struck down the most vital principles
of constitutional liberty. The propo
sed convention, ostensibly for the pur
pose of reform, may in reality be for
the purpose of establishing negro equal
ity. It would be in perfect harmony
with the antecedents of this party to
cheat the people into a convention 011
the plea of reform, use it when assem
bled, to white-wash the negro, and
when its work was done, assume that
it was sovei'eiyn and refuse to submit
its work to the people. What does
Col. McClure say on this point?
OUR Legislature seems to have es
tablished a national reputation. It is
known in Washington, and seems to
be in as bad odor thereas it is at home.
It appears that this imposing body
made an excursion to the national Cap
ital to see Senator Cameron sworn into
office. Tickets and drinks were free,
so everybody went along, clerks, mes
sengers, pages, postmasters, pasters and
folders, and the sag-tag and bob-tail
generally. Of course they got drunk
and had a good time of it. As the
crowd was exceedingly select, and (in
their own opinion) well behaved, a mo
tion was made inviting them to seats
on the floor of the Senate, but the Sen
ate "couldn't see it." One Senator
said there were one hundred and thir
ty pasters and folders in the crowd!, and
that these were the most respectable
part of it. Another called attention to
the fact that most of the Senators were
that day paid off, and had themoney
about their persons. Another was wil
ling to admit the rag-tag and bob-tail,
but not the members. After a run ning
debate of this kind, during whiea the
modest excursionists were waiting at
the door to be ushered into the august
presence of the Senate, the motion was
voted down, only two Senators voting
in its favor, whereupon the excursion
ists adjoured to take a drink. Thus
were these men of "great moral ideas"
snubbed, jeered and humiliated in pres
ence of the whole country. Hvery
Penasylvanian will blush that such a
rebuke should bemerited. When will
this cancer on the body-politic be heal
ed? When will this seething, loathe
some mass of moral putrescence be bu
ried, that it may no longer be a stench
in the nostrils of honest men?
RADICAL legislation is beginning to
bear its legitimate fruits. Money is
scarce. Labor is at a discount, and
capital at a premium, Hard times are
upon us. Thousands find themselves
unable to pay their debts, and buy
bread for their families. All this was
to be expected. The opposition id the
Democratic party have always been in
favor of a monied aristocracy. This
they have established di'rmg the last
six years. Their laws have been cun
ningly framed to shield wealth and op
press poverty. Labor must pay , capi
tal is exempt. Of the two thousand
millions of government bowls not a
ce:it is paid in the shape of taxes to
support the national treasury. Thus
nearly half the wealth of the country is
exempted from taxation. Where then
is the burden to fall if not upon the la
boring classes. It is true, heavy man
ufacturers and other capitalists pay im
mense revenues to the government,
but all this is assessed upon the value
of their wares, and comes eventually
out of the pockets of the consumers
who are the laboring classes. Is not
this so? and If so, how long will it be
endured?

TIXADSTEVENS' "GOBBLE" BILL.—
Thefollowingsummary of Thad Ste
vens' bill will be found interesting as
showing the length to which "loyal''
thieves are prepared togo to satisfy their
cupidity. No age, perhaps, was ever
cursed with a greater number or a bas
er lot of villaiA than the present—and
they all appear to be in the Rump Con
gress :
The confiscation bill which Mr. Ste
vens introduced into Congress confis
cates all the public lands belonging to
the ten rebel States, and all the lands
and other property forfeited by the act
of Congress of Juiy 17, 1862, all of which
is to be seized, condemned aud sold.
Out of the proceeds each adult male
freed slave is to receive 40 acres, and
each one who is head of a family 40
more. Out of the balance a sum of s>o
for each household is to be appropria
ted to the erection of buildings for the
use of the late slaves; $200,000,000 is to
be invested in United States six per
cent, bonds, and the interest added to
the pensions of Union soldiers; ami
$300,000,000 is to be appropriated to pay
damages .done to loyal citizens by the
civil or military government .of the reb
el Confederacy, under which clause
Mr. Stevens would be reimbursed lor
his property destroyed by the rebel in
vasion of Chambersburg, Pennsylva
nia. The remaining sections of the bill
prescribe the methods and machinery
by which it is to be carried into effect.
INCREASING THEIR PAY.— Mr.
Waddell, of Chester county, Chairman
of the Committee on Ways and Means
in the lower House, has reported a bill
increasing the pay of members of the
Legislature to 51,500 per annum. They
are also to have, besides this large ad
vance, mileage and stationary adfibituni.
Of course it will pass. Such bills al
ways do; but we hereby give notice to
any Democrat in either House, who
may vote for this increase of salary, that
we will publish his name throughout
the State as recreant to his trust, and
as a fit object for public reprehension.
Let us have a solid vote of the Demo
crats of the House and the Senateagainst
this bill. That may kill it. We hope
no Democrat will think of voting for
it.
The present salary of members is
sufficient to pay any honest man for
his services. If there be one who does
not think so he can easily retire and
leave his place to be tilled by another.
There will be no scarcity of candidates.
Any Democrat who votes for this in
crease of pay ought to he immediately
repudiated by his* constituents. Let
them stand as a unit against it I—Lan

WASHINGTON NEWS.
WASHINGTON, March 23.
A. H. Garland, ex-member of the
Confederate Congress, whom it will be
recollected raised the question of the
constitutionality or the test oath as ap
plicable to attorneys before the bar of
the Supreme Court, and who was ad
mitted to its bar under its decision, has
arrived in this city. He is one of the
Senators elect from Arkansas. As it is
certain that any application he may
make for admission to the Senate will
be rejected, it is understood he intends
bringiug the matter before the Su
preme Court of the United States.
Snrratt will not probably be tried be
fore the next of the Criminal
Court in June. The prisoner and ills
counsel are anxious for a speedy trial,
but for some unassigned reason hisease
is thus delayed.
The President stated to several mem
bers of Congress from the city of New-
York, who called upon him to remove
Mr. Smythe, that he did not believe in
the truth of the charges, and that he
would not remove him unless they
were clearly established.
Mayor Hoffman is here, and had an
interview with the President this morn
ing.
The veto was received this afternoon,
and the House passed the bill over the
President's objections, by a vote of 114
yeas to 25 nays.
Evidence inculpating Senators Pat
terson and Doolittle, was read in the
Senate this afternoon. Senator Patter
son arose in his seat and pronounced it
wholesale forgery. Howe defended his
colleague, anu also pronounced it false,
and thought that the Senate ought not
to consider it.
The President's veto message of the
Supplementary Reconstruction bill was
read in the House immediately after it
was received.
The President objects generally to the
provisions of the bill, and especial'v to
those relating to the registry, 110 per
sons being permitted to vote whose
names are not recorded.
He says, as the preliminaries to hold
ing Conventions are under martial law,
and conducted by the commanding offi
cers, and as there is no appeal from the
registry, those in control of it may so
act as to prevent the election of such
Delegates as may faithfully represent
the wishes and sentiments of the State
in the Conventions to be called to frame
new Constitutions. No considerations
could induce hirtri to give his approval
to such an election law.
He speaks of the Reconstruction bill,
and tins supplementary one, as estab
lishing, under martial law, military co
ercion, and making political disfran
chisement.
He then refers to the remark of Dan
iel Webster against military govern
ments founded on force and mock elec
tions, and takes occasion to reiterate his
views heretofore expressed 111 relation
to the restoration ofthe Union, express
ing the liopa that eventually all the
States will be admitted to the enjoy
ment of their rights under the Consti
tution. ''
RUTS AND ROADS. —The public high
ways throughout our county,excepting
always turnpikes, are in a most melting
condition of mud and misery. Team
sters and farmers, when they visit
town, are compelled either to load their
wagons very lightly or make a very
free use of horse flesh. We shall be
glad, and people living in the country
will no doubt be pleased, when spring
comes in earnest and makes the roads
fit for travel.
INCOME TAX.— the income tax is to
b3 on the amount in excess over $l,OOO
instead of $6OO, and at a uniform rateol
five per cent. The real taxes, insurance
and repairs of all kinds are to be taken
out of the income. So in effect the in
come is to be exempt to an average a
mount of $1,500.
—There is good authority for saying
that Ex-Senator Foster, of Connecticut,
will receive the nomination of Minis
ter to Austria, in place of Mr. Motler,
resigned*

| \ ENT IS TR Y ! DENTISTRY!
A BEAUTIFUL SET OF TEETH FOR
TEX DOLLARS
I)r. 11. VIRGIL PORTER,
(late of New York city,)
DENTIST,
Would respectfully inform his numerous friends
and the public generally, that he has located per
mancntlv
IN BLOODY RUN,
where he may be found at all times pvepared to
insert from ONE TOOTH to full sots of his
BEAUTIFUL ARTIFICIAL TEETH,
on new and improved atmospheric principles.
THE TRIUMPH OF MECHANICAL DENTISTRY,
RUBBER
FOR THE BASIS OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH, j
This discovery which has met with such universal
approval throughout this and other countries, has
seemingly placed Artijicial Teeth at tbe disposal
of all who require them. Dr. -PORTER is now in
serting most beautiful and durable, at prices
ranging from ten to eighteen dollars per set.
Temporary sets inserted if desired.
J^ 13 All operations warranted.
TEETH EXTRACTED, without pain,
by the use of NITROUS OX IDE or
LAUGHING GAS.
This is NO HUMBUG, but a positive fact.
Gas administered fresh every day.
As the Gas administered by Dr. Porter is pre
pared in accordance with the purifying method of
Dr. Strong, of New Haven, Ct., and Prof. Siliman
(late Professor of Chemistry in Yale College), he
has no hesitation in asserting that it is attended
with no danger whatever.
Persons desiring the services of a Dentist, would
promote their own interest by calling upon Dr.
Porter, as he is determined to spare no effort to
please the most fastidious. Dr. Porter's mode of
operating will at all times be of the mildest char
acter, avoiding the infliction of th'e slightest un-
and carefully adapted to the age,
constitution, health and nervous condition of the
patient.
Spceial attention is iuvited to Dr. Porter's
scientific method of pre-ervirig decayed and aching
teeth. H. VIRGIL PORTER,
