Who is the Mau Y—We notice that
the State Treasury Ring organur are now
claiming that the people of Peunsylvana
are indebted to General Hartranft for
having the State tax on their reel catate
removed! When Mr. M. S. quay was a
candidate for the Assembly here some
years ago, we were made to believe that
be was the man who had this tax taken
of by act of the Legislature, Bud believ
ing what watold us, we urged his elec
tion on that ground. Since then, we see.
that almost everybody who was in the -
Legislatu re at that time, or loafing about
Harrisburg claims to have been the es
pecial iustrumen - t through which Oat
;relief was effected. We will, therefore,
not be a lit surprised to see that Mr .
Itutan's friends, by and by put in the
claim that the credit belongs to him , al
beit the act was passed smiler three or
four years before he became a member
of the Senate.
"Duckaiew voted to pay our ;cadgers
in gold in 18113. Our expenses then
were $2,500,000 per day. Gold waaV.4o.
• • • Taxpayers, what do you
think of this?"—Har. Telegraph.
Well, taxpayers, what do you think
of it? The pay of the soldier then was
$l6 per month, which, with gold at $2.40,
had a purchaslug power of only $6,66
per month, or less than the wages of a
servant girl. And now. when the Tel
egraph and other rink organs are court
ing the soldier in *hundred ways, tax
payers, who are presumed by the Tele
graph to have grudgingly al malt° the
soldier , bis miserable monthly pay ot
$6.56, are balled upon to express their
opinion of Mr. Buckalew's action in
voting to pay the soldier to gold, aspen
-
Ling that opinion will be adverse to the
Liberal oandidate for governor. Is
Otis the Telegraph's low estimate of the
people, or is it possible that such an ap
peal can be made with effect? Are

amendment increasing the pay of the
private soldier nay per cent. ;or . fr;oln
$l3 to 19.50, and on another occasion
Mr. Bucksiew voted to increase the pay
of the soldier from $l3 to $lB per month.
Indeed, if Mr . Buckalew's record be ex
amined, It will be found that he voted
for every masaure looking to the iin
prOipment of the condition of the pri
vate soldier.- Soldiers, what do you
think of appeals like that of the Tele-
,
graph.* Was the fact that the expenses
of the government were $2,500,000 per
day any reason why you families should
starve I.—Har..Paenfot.
Admitting the Faet..—The Harris
burg State Journal, General Hartranit's
organ, admits that General IL, "went
back" on the soldiers, In the matter of
giving thema bounty to the shape of an
unappropriated farm, but wriggles
around the question In this "thin" way:
"At the annual convention of the G. A.
Department of Pennsylvania. the
question of bounties, land warranti, de.,
tt.c., was fully discussed, ands resolution
passed by that convention opposed to
certain bills before Congress, and Hart
rant% was elected delegate to the Nation
al Convention, instructed to vote as he
did against certain bounty ads." -
Now let us hear no more about the
"due bill" candidate, and gambler in the
"Sinking Fund stocks," being the sol
diers' friend. A pretension of that kind
Is only adding Insult to injury.
Soldiers of SesserConn ly. Look
nil This.—The Harrisburg Patriot of
last Thursday soya;
"Last winter a bill was introdtteed to
Congress granting homesteads on the
public lands to Union soldiers . and
sailors in which there was contained a
provision enabling the grantee of the
homestead to set/ or transfer his land
warrant. General Ilartranft and a few
others in the interest of the land•grab
bing railroad corporations got op a re
monstrance against this bill and laid it.
beft•re Congress. The result svas that
the measure was emasculated of the pro
vision most important to the soldier,
that which enabled him to sell or trans
fer his land warrant. It was against
this feature of the bill that Iltirtrauft's
remonstrance was especially directed,
The soldiers' homestead bill, as pirated
by Congress, is of no practical 'ewe to
thousands of soldiers entitled to lands
under Its provisions. They are unable
to Leave their homes and employments
and squat for years in the wilderness in
order to perfect title to lands, as they are
required to do under this bill. If Hart
ran ft and his follow objectors bad not
interfered, Congress would probably
have passed such a bit as is desired by
the soldiers of the country. He is re.
sponsible for its defeat. We make this
charge broadly, plainly, and unequivo
cally, knowing whereof we speak. Lei
the Grant Soldiers* Convention soon to
assemble at Pittsburgh inquire into this
matter and satisfy themselves of the
truth of what we affirm.

Robbiug Ciarro—Two of the Rob
bers Arrested.—For some time past
frequent robberies have taken place in
the vicinity of Homewood and Clinton
stations, in this county. "At these sta

standing over the Sabbath day, and on
several (we-a...ions these ultra were opened
and goods take from them. The rail

another party, opened a car at Clinton
station, and took away a load of goods,
and on returning for a second load two
of them were "bagged," as has already
been stated, the third one making his es
cape, The two who were arrested are
Reuben Greenough an Thotnas. Rook en;
the one who made him escape is named
Thomas Davenport. They all reside in
that locality and have been working lu
the mines of that region. A search was
at once instituted for stolen goods, and
after sometime a hole was discovered in
a body of rocks on Mr. Beatty's farm,
and on an entrance being effected some
five or aix hundred dollars worth of
goods were found within. These goods
consisted of calicoes, muslins, merinos,

ited with the authorship of the lath reso
'Anion of the Philalelphie platform, and
as their is some difference of opinion in
reference to what evilsare alluded to, if
you would condescend to write me a line
in explanation, it may serve the cause of
truth and free government.
'Yours, etc. J. M. MILLER.
The folickfing is Mr. Raster's reply :
July 10, 1872.
J. N. MiGer, Deur Sir: In reply to
yours of July Bth, I have to say that I
have written the 16th resolution , of the
Philadelphia platform, and that it was
adopted by the platform committee with
the full and explicit understanding that
its purpoSe was the discountenancing of
all so-called "Tern perance" (prohibitory)
and Sunday laws. This purpose was
meant to be ex pressed by reference to
those rights of the people which had not
heen delegated to to either national or
state governments; It being assumed that
the right to drink what one pleases. (De
lug responsible for all acts eommitted
under the influence of strong drink 1 and
the right to look upon the day upon
which Christians ha ve their prayer meet
ings as any other day, were among the
rights tot delegated by the people, but
reserved to themselves; hether this
explanation of the meaning of the reso
lution will satisfy you or not I do not
know. But, as you want to serve the
cause of truth, so do I: and what I have
stated here in regard to the "trno mean
ing anti intent" of the 16th . resolution of
the Philadelphia platform Is the troth. -
Very respectfully yours, '
H ERMAN RASTER.

- En, A nous:—The Liberal Republican
Senatorial CA ' mforence for this district,
met here this week. You, of coil rse,
know that Mr. Samuel Idekitiley of
Lawrence county is the Ring nominee
for the office of Senator. Who the anti
ring nominee will be is not yet known,
as the Conference which met hero this
week, adjourned until the I I th. Gen.
McCalmont of Venanir s o county is mit
forward as a candidate by that county.
Dr. Giebner of Mercer county, and Lion.
William Stewart of the same county are
also spoken of in that connection.
We would not be surprised, however,
if Hon. David Sankey of Law renee eoun
ty would tlnat,v be agreed noon as the
candidate tor the District.. Your neigh
bor Quay, of the Radical, was prowling
around the hotel when the conferrees
were hero, evidently as the agent of old
Cameron, whom he is trying to 6e-elect
to the United States Senate. More anon,
Dix E
Roles fbrTrarelers.—On arriving
at a hotel alwayA'insist on being served
with a room Brat, no matter how many
aro before you.
A proper show of indignation at being
assigned a room above the second flight
may impress people with nn idea of your
own opinion of your consequence.
itwell,_also, to act as thong)) all the
ma were front rooms, commanding a
lookout on the mountain, or lake, or sea
view ; and, although you may arrive tit
the height of the season, and the house
crowded, ex press astonishment that such
a room cannot be given you.
At the dinner table ;live your order to
the servants by inatallments—that is,
send him out Fla often as possible. This
will keep him at work exclusively for
yourself, and teach others a wholesome
lesson of patience.
If the express neglects to bring your
luggage, curse the hotel clerk for it.
Ask him "why in thunder hasn't that
expressman brongbt my trunk?" Of
course the clerk ought to know, and re.
ally be held somewhat to blaMe; at least
he's the most convenient man to pitch
into.
The shorter the time you intend to
stay, the more fuss it is necessary to
make about everything-.
If you are a cheap clerk, on a three
days' excursion', brag about Saratoga at
Newport, or rice versa; throw in all the
knowing wine talk' possible, and ask
about the drives, and what accommoda
tions there are for gentlemen's horses.
Anything you don't like about the
watering Ogee abuse the hotel clerk for.
Ask him why be don't have a new han
dle put thbAMan pump. or *by ; the
street einitslngs are not better. Trot the
seaside, frown at him when the ►eater is
too cold, or pitch into him about the
weather when It rains; he ought to a►•
range thina dif f erently.
Ask Ottol course of grumbling, growl
ing, and loudly expressed dissatisfaction
with everything, Interspersed with some
judiciously applied profanity, will have
a wonderful effect, and ►nay succeed in
impressing an idea of your importance
upon the whole establishment, which
undoubtedly would have perished, but
for the two days' patronage you gra
ciously bestowed upon it.

On Jut Monday evening, in accord

hear addresses by Goo. Charles R. Bock

Jolla Piersol, Wm. Hurst, Vice Presi
dents. \
Frank' Wilson, David Eakin, John
Buchanan, Wm. S. Barclay, Secretaries.
Mr. Wilson, on assuming the duties
of chairman,,rnade a few brief remarks
in which he referred to Mr. Buckalew
as the next governor of Penniyivinla ;
and stated that lu all that gentleman's
long experience in public affairs, no man
had ever yet accused him of making
or accepting a single dollar illegitimate.
ly. Mr. Buckalew next came forward
and began his address, but as delegation
after delegation came pouring in he was
frequently interrupted by their coming,
and finally the crowd became so large
that it was thought advisable to adjourn
to the front of the Court House, where
he resumed ids remarks, and where he
was attentively listened to by the large
concourse present. Alter Mr. Bucka
lew concluded, Hon. Montgomery Blair
of Maryland, was next introduced. and
spoke for about one hour. M r:11. made
some telling hits, and closed with an
appeal to voters, to vote at the October
election for Buckalew and Reform, and
In November for Honest Horace Gree
ley and B. Gratz Brown. Mr. Kalbfus
was next introduced, but before com
mencing his address, ho invited the
crowd into the court room, preferring
to speak / there to the open air. They
followed itim in, and it larger, more at
tentive and enthusiastic audience, we
have seldom, if over seen in the Court
House. Mr. Kalbfus is a Liberal Re
publican, and he made ono of the most
telling speeches we have heard during
the ("Impalgn.
Mr. Kalbfns swayed his auditors at
will, and at times the applause shook
the whole building. Nearly everybody
—Grant and anti-Grant—wore pleased
with ids speech ; and. on closing, he
called for three Cheers for Greeley,
Brown and Buckalew, which were given
with a will.
The persons present trust have num
bered two thousand. a very large major
ity of whom were voters. Several
bandy were in attendance, and the ut
most decornm prevailed both in and out
of the Court House during the meeting.
lithe same feeling. that seems to exist
here, prevails all over the State, Bucks
lew will be elected by at least 3e,000 ma

A Swimming 3lnebine.-.A French
Inventor has patented an apparatus for
swimmers; but we think that any frog
alight bring an action against the man
for iufringestient of a device secured to
the batrachians by endowtnet t of nature.
Fur the bands he has • large menbra
noes fan, which is held in its place by
l oops passing over the fingers and a
strap around the wrist. The surface
presented to the water by these fins Is
so large as to add greatly to the effective
ness of the stroke of the arm, but not so
large as to exhaust the muscular power.
Their effect is to reduce very much the
effort required to swim without them.
But the greatest ingenuity is displayed
in the form and fitness of tho tins for
the legs, which are attached to the ankles,
iind are so formed that they act upon the
water, both in the movement of bringing
the legs together and throwing them
back. They act so finely in "treading
water," as swimmers call it that one can
really walk, if not on the water, at least
lb it. . The difference between swim
ming -with this apparatus and without It
to very much like the difference between
rowing a boat with the handle and the
biado of an oar, The old swimmer has
no trouble in using the fins at first trial,
and is surprised to 'find with e rhat case
ho can swim without - exhaustion. He
easily swims twice as fast•with the ap
paratus as without it, and he tan sustain
himself for hours upon the water, or
swim with it.
