If any further evidence that Arthur's
administration will bo an out-and-out
Stalwart-Grant rule, the appointment
of Ex-Senator Frelinghysen as Secreta
ry of State, furnishes the proof only too
well. While he may not be personally
corrupt himself, he certainly was a
silent witness to all the loathsome cor
rirp*m that will forever brand Grant's
second ... j . Tie .liUcd
Grant's San Domingo speculation
scheme, helped to smother up the
French arms fraud investigation, and
to crown all, was one of the notorious
"eiqht "on the Electoral Commission
that so wickedly cheated the country
out of its choice for President in 187 G.
It is altogether fit that Arthur, who
. himself was removed from the New
York Custom House for dishonest prac
tices, should appoint Frelinghysen his
Prime Minister.
ThsNation's Humiliation.
From the Pottsville Miners' Journal*
A perusal of the proceedings attend
ing the trial of the infamous wretch
Guiteau is sufficient to cause the cheel s
of every American citizen to burn and
tingle with very shame and mortifica
tion. When we recall the thrill of hor
ror that shocked the nation on that -fa
tal second of July and the consuming
indignation against the base assassin
tnat burned with a fervid and feverish
iuteusity during the £ong and wearing
suspense of President Girfiald's strug
gle for life, it is impossible to realize
that the hideous mockery now going
on.at Washington i 3 the culmination
•of tbat awful drama.
Notwithstanding the several state
ments to the contrary. President Ar
thur will not take formal possession of
the white house until the latter part of
t is week, possibly Thursday orFridiv.
Steward Crump says, however, if the
president desires to move in earlier,
they can give him accommodations,
though the room 3 selected by the presi
dent for his private use are not ready.—

How a Sharper Makes
Money.
From the Poughkeepsie (N. Y.) Eagle.
A sharper is on his way up the Hud
son with the "Ninty-five cent game."
His method of doing business is to en
ter a store and ask for five cents worth
of some article; on receiving it he ten
ders a two dollar bill in payment; the
change given him by the storekeeper
generally consisting of a dollar bill or
silver piece and ninty-five cents in
small coin, he places the dollar in his
pocket, and, suddenly finding a five
cent piece in that receptacle, apologizes
for making trouble in gettiug the bill
changed, aud, placing the five cents
on the ninty-five cents, pushes it to
wards the storekeeper, asking for a
dollar dill, saying he dislikes to carry so
much silver; upon the unsuspecting
storekeeper placing a dollar on the
counter the sharper engages h/m in
talking until ho can place both the
change and the bill together, when he
coolly asks the victim to exchange the
two dollars on the counter for the two
dollar bill he had originally given him.
I A Lycoiriing- County Specimen.
As a specimen of death-rattle insur
ance, the case of Samuel Miller, of
Clinton township, is instructive. Sam
uel held a SI,OOO policy on the lite of
his father, Joseph Miller, in a Selins
grove concern. Joseph died in July
and Samuel was suspected of hurrying
off the old gentleman; was cast into
jail, hut was subsequently proven in
nocent and released, at a cost of about
S4O. In the meantime the assessments
were dropping in with distressing re
gularity and Samuel, who is a,poor
man, was sorely pushed to pay them.
This week be went down to Selinsgrove
and-received the magnificent sum of
sl3 for his policy, after having paid out
and lost in money and time lull SIOO. —

Preparations are being made to
pass a bill in the next congress for the
admission of Dakota as a State. The
purpose of this scheme is to get two
more Republican U. S. Senators hnd
thus secure a Republican majority in
the Senate. When the intelligent mind
calmly considers modern politics in
this country, the conclusion must be
readied that everything is being pro
stituted for'the fctike of party and party
ascendancy. The public interest is en
tirely uncared for and the only inquiry
with politicians in regard to any meas
ure is, not whether it is a public benefit
but whether it will help their party. If
the history is.read with any degree of
attention it will be seen that we are
fast traveling in the road which loads
to the destruction of our form of gov
ernment with liberty in name but not
in reality.— Ex.
The Kintzler Murderers before The
Pardon Board.
fIAKKISBrBO, Nov-
Ex-Senator Dill, of counsel for the
murderers of John Kintzler and wife,
who were killed in Snyder county in
December, 1577, appeared before the
board and suggested the cases of Jona
than Moyer and Isratl Erb, sentenced
to be executed December IG, be heard
at a subsequent meeting of the board,
lie stated that since the day of hang
ing had been uxed by the Governor
statements bad been made by Jona
than Moyer and the lato Emanuel Et
tinger exonerating Erb from participa
tion in'the crime. Testimony had been
takpn in the matter, but not enough to
justify present action in the case. Mr.
Dill stated that the Governor, after
having been informed by hiro'tlitft the
necessary papers could not be prepared
in time to be heard at the November
meeting of the board, agreed to respite
the prisoners. Mr. Ilower, of JSelins
rrho tfcS&ISUkl 111 tll6 UrOSSCUti Oil,
contended that the defendants' counsel
had a month - and a half to prepare evi
dence, ect., and opposed delay because
of the insecure condition of the Snyder
county Jail. Referring to Ettinger's
statement he said it was no confession.
It had been drawn from him while in a
dying condition by leading questions,
the prisoner answering by a shake of
the head. He promised to show that
Ettinger did not die a natural death,
but committed suicide. The board
agreed to hear the murder case at the
next meeting, provided the Governor
granted the condemned a respite.
A SENSIBLE GIRL.
The Ktnd of Younor Ladie3 We
Want, but Which Are Hard to Find*
To the Editor of The Times:
I read with a .great deal of interest a
communication in your Sunday edition
! of October 16, signed "Junita" who
made a reply to a "committee of one T '
touching the relatiye rights and priv
ileges of young ladies who are as yet
under parental restraint. Most girls
of this age have an idea that they
ought to be allowed perfect freedom
and do as tliey please, simply because
they happen to be girls. This is a mis
taken idea. Girls under eighteen
should always ask permission when
they wish to go any place or to do
something which they are not quite
sure they have a right to do. It may
be taken for granted that if a girl dis
obeys her parents she will be disobedi
ent all through life, and such a person
would naturally make a wretched wife
for any man except those of a puny na
ture. There are too many girls who
can be seen running around the streets
when they should be at home, helping
their mothers or engaged in some
of her useful work. Men do not care
particularly to 'have wives who aro a
quainted with all the latest slang
phrases, and w r h en called upon can act
the lady to perfection. What they
want are true, sensible and well-bred
girls, who have been bro uglit up to
work and know wliat is expected of
them as wives and mothers. The too aw"
ul nice young ladies, who arc neither
wax doll nor human l>eing, but a be
tween will do well enough for the dan
dies but ior mj part give us the girj
who has an inborn knowledge of the
household duties and who has been
broughtup under true parental restraint*
It is quite time girls got this foolish
notion out of their heads that they must
have a beau before they are 12 years old.
them remain girls until nature pro
claims them old enough to put aside
their girlish ways and then it will be
time enough to receive the attentions
of young men. Di ck.

Astonished to Hear of
Garfield's Death.
Atehi.an Letter in the Kansas City Times.
I dislike to state the fact, but yester
day a ruan was in towu to purchase
goods for bis family, who lives down
in the Missouri tl its, who was surpris
ed to hear that James A. Garfield had
been assassinated, and that Guiteau
had been undergoing trial for the crime,
and then begged some one to tell him
when "Gawfell" was elected.
The Rev. Dr. Pomeroy, of C leve
land, in a sermon exclaimed: "The
feeling is profound that the halter it
ttie only proper remedy foriusanitles
like GuKeau's."
