Last Thursday in the Senate of
Fenqfylvonia Mr. Ernientrout, <
Democrat, offered a joint resolution
Ajprppriiitingsl,ooo to defray the,
expenses of the Governor's inaugur- i
fltion. Mr. Ermeutrout defended 1
the resolution by advocating re
trenchment, and cited ft he expenses
f former inangurations to show
that the cost had been gradually in
inel-easing trom the time of Govern
or Cuilin, win se first inauguiation
cost the State SBT], until the last
inauguration of Governor Hart ran ft
flhicn cost the State nearly $5,000.
On the same day in tbo House,
Mi. Sherwood, Democrat, of Nor
thumberland, offered a similar reso
lution. If the State gets off with a
ftsonable turn to inaugurate Hoyt,
the people will have tbe Democrats
to thank for it. .
▲n Interview with Mr. Moeby.
From the Xevada gflxxr State.
The celebrated Vlrgiuia bush,
whacker and guerrilla chief, John
8. Mosby, who was converted by
Grant's wine and a promise of office
from an ultra Secessionist to a radi
cal Republican, while on a visit to
Washington a Tew Years ago, passed
here Tuesday evening with a com
mission as Consul-Genera J to Hong
Kong, signed by Hayes and approv
ed by the United States Senate. At
Palisade the citizens manifested con
siderabic curiosity to see Mosby, but
no one seemed to know him until
agent Duff of the narrow gauge road
pointed him out. "1 have cause to
remember him, and never will forget
him," said Mr. Duff. "I was on a
train which he captured In Virginia
during the war. He compelled us
to stand in a row alongside the cars
tffi a eoid wintry morti!??, while he
robbed the train and pasacnjprs.
We complained ot being cold to
Iffwby, who said : "I'll make it hot
enough for jou directly,' and kept
bis word by setting Are to the train
and keeping is alongside the burn
log cars until we were almost roast
ed."

Sfrtxgfiw.d, 111., January, 17.
The Republican members of the
Legislature held their Senatorial
caucus to-night, and nominated
General on the first ballot.
The votes sa>od—Lagan, 80 ; Ogles
by, 26. All the Republican mem
bers were present.
Gen. James shields has recently
Mrr elected United States Senator
by the Legislature of Missouri, to
serve the unexpired term ending
March 4th, next. He is the only
man who has ever represented two
states in the U. S. Senate sin e the
formation of the goverameut, and
he will soon represent the third
His has perhaps the most checkered
historv of any public man in the
country. He was born in Ireland,
and emigrated to America in 18:26.
In 1836 ne entered the Illinois Leg
islature ; in 1839 he became Audi
tor of the state, and a few years lat
er he was elected Supreme Judge.
President Polk appointed 11 n Com
missioner of the Land Office in
1846. He served in the Mexican
war as a Brigadier General, and was
severely wounded at the bat' le of
Cerro Gordo being shot through the
lungs. In 1849 he was elected U.
8. Senator by the Legislature of
Illinois; in 18-57 Minnesota sends
him as one of her first Senators, and
now Missouri honors him as well as
herself by bis third election to the
Senate.
The last j .1} on tlie project* d
Aar< nsburg road, as it is called fui
short , are doing their work over to
day. They are assessing the dam
ages—a thing they bad forgotten the
other time they were here. The
jury consists of Ex-M.eriffs Alexan
der and Kline and Engineer Brug
ger.
The Republicans are having a
high time ot it at Harrisburg this
week. They have a Governor to
iaMgurate, a cabinet to construct
*od a U. fc>. Senator to elect—all
which gives them plenty to do for
one week.
Hoyt,the new Governor, will be

Governor in the fullest sense of the
word, aid will devote his best ener
gies to take care of the pariv, while
the interests of the people may care
for itself. That's exactly what he
wdk elected for, aud he will fill the
bill.
Oon, the son of Simon will of

ever much the rank and tile of the '
party may be ashamed of the choice
And thus poor ring-ruled Penn

' tv-first anunal statement of the
! Farmers' Mutual Insurance Com
: pany ot Centra Co. It is a concise
I and p'aln statement of the .ransac

, the business of the company is in
good hands. The current expenses
are but nominal, while every loss
the com pan v eve- had has Wen
promptly paid. The Farmers* Mil
j tual is an excellent example to prove
1 that local insurance can be conduct
ed on an safe, as well as economical
basis.
The annual election was lield en

For the Journal.
Ma. Frrro*: I noticed in ronr ls*ne of
Jan. 9th the proeeeMnr* of the School Dlrec
ton* Convention, which met on Inntimte
week. Since reading the same we are tniil
that the second part of the plan adopted to
, carry ut the preamble and resolutions.
! was adopted through the Influence of cer
tain agents of a New York Publishing
House, who had been traveMne threueh the
1 eotmlY flu' Ing The Ave or *lx month* pree<l
' Ine'the convention, dolne all thev could to
• hare their books introduced. Tills action is
! likely to deter publisher* from enterlnc the
contest w ere one house has *ueh a decided
! advantage over all others. Many good text '
books may. on account of sahl action, not be
presented at all.
In our country schools we want our series
of text books much curtailed. In ArPhme
j tics the series consists of about a half doren
: books where two would be amply sufficient.
! It we had a Fir t Lessons and a Practical.
combining both mental and written. It
i would he all we would need. We know of
two or three houses In oi r state, who pub
lish lust such books as we need.
Ureenleafs ate very good Arithmetics in
many particulars, hut the series is so large
that it requires too many classes. and there
are so many editions that It Is very hard
retting aiong with them. Persons who
have used thein will no doubt remember
that in Oreealeaf the pupil Is required to
solve examines containing fractions long
before he baa entered "fractions," or has
any knowledge ahotit them.
We do think that clause should not have
been passed, and hope that the Directors of
Miles, Penn, Oregg and Haines townships,
will look to the best Interest of our schools,
and select such text books as they tMnk
will best suit our wants and further the
cause, that clause, tbe New York bouse and
Its agents to thcontrary notwithstanding.

Foughkoepsie Solving the

VouonKKEPSiE, Jan. 20. At- J
ached to the city almshouse is a |
quarry from which stone is taken l>
boulders by pauper laljor, and car- '
ried to the stoneyard of the instil u- 'i
tion.- This yard is supplied with
wood boxes which hold two, three,
or foursquare feet of broken stone
of the size of stove coal. Many ,
sledge hammerß are lying around j
loose. At dusk, when the tramp t
applies for shelter, he is told that he
can have a bunk for the night if he ,
wifl break three snuare feet of stone, j
If he consents he is conducted to the j
stone yard, and when his task is , e
finished he is given something to eat ,
and a tvd. In the morning he i
wants breakfast. "Will you earn it
in the stoneyard ?" asks the Super
intendent. If he concludes to do so
he is again sent to the yard, breaks
the stone, is given his breakfast. ]
and departs. In nine cases out of j
ten he never comes here again. The <s
records of Bujeriiitendent Dutcher \
shows that the tramp applications \
for temporary relief at the city i
almshouse since the stone yard sys- •
tem was instituted has fallen off \
fully seventy percent. !

The Wonderful Story that Comes
From an Indiana Town.
Covington Special to the Indianapolis Jour
nal.
On Tuesday night last. Lennidas
Grover, who resided in the vicinitv
of Newtown. Fountain county, met
his death in away that is probably
without parallel in this or any other
country. Mr. Grover was a widow
ei, living on his farm with a mar
ried daughter and her husband. On
the evening referred to the married
couple had been absent on a visit to
some neighbors, and ujain returning
at a late hour entered the house,
finding everything, to all ap|earance,
in usual ordei, and sup)>osing that
Mr. Grover had already letired,
went to lied themselves. Next morn
ing the daughter arose, and having
firepared breakfast, went to the ad
oining room to call her father, and
was horrific to find him lying on
his shattered bed, a mutilated corpse.
Her screams Drought the husband
quickly to the bedroom, and an in
spection disclosed a ragged oponing
in the roof, directly over the breast
of the unfortunate roan, which was
torn through as if by a cannon shot,
and extending downward through
the bedding and fl ior ; other holes
showed the direction taken bv the
deadly missile. Subsequent search j
revealed the fact tnat tne awful ca
lamity was caused bv the full of a
meteoric stone, and the stone itself,
pyramidal in shape and weighing
twenty pounds and a few ounces,
avoirdupois, and stained with blood,
was unearthed from a depth of near
ly fire feet, thus showing the fearful
impetus with which it struck the
dwelling. The posit ion of the corpse,
with other surroundings, when found
showed that the victim was asleep
stricken, and that death to him
! was painless.

BEAUTIFUL! Header, were you
ever awaked from pleasant dreams, I
in the silent watcnes of the night,
by the harmonious, celestial sounds
of song * If so you need not be told
what is beautiful. At such a mo
ment the imagination would gladly
fancy that it hears the happv voices
ot Heayenland singing "good will to
men." O how is the weary pilgrim
cheered on his journey to the bliss
ful shores! How is the heat soft
ened in gratitude to God for his ten
der compassion to man! How is
faith elevated and strengthened, to
giaspthe ideal, the spiritual— the
eternal ! How is every good resolu
tion, every noble aspiiation, of the
soul encouraged and made stronger !
The enchanted listener does not
know who the vocalists are, list he
blesses in his heart the pious thought
that prompted the atft. He dots
not know who sings for liira, but
*'ln the sweet by and by
WB shall owft on thai beautiful shore."
