Ora editorial colums this week
show the effect of the warm Spell of
weather now prevailing. Jumping
from extreme cold to a heat littleless
than 80 degreettla the shade, baa
somewhat demoralized us, and we
fear several days will come and go
before we are properly reconstructed
again.
THE Legislature, last week, "went
back" on the cumulative system of
voting -for Town Councilmen, and
repealed thelaw passed a couple of
winters ago. The "old order of
things," is therefore re-established,
and each candidate for a "City Fath
ership," can in the future, only re
ceive one vote from each voter. • It
is claimed that the new method was
generally unsatisfactory, but we are
inclined to the belief that it was too
cafly to know whether the new sys
tem was a good one or a bad one. It
should have been given a longer trl
al, before its blotting out was resolv
ed upon.
A CORRESPONDENT of The Phila
delphia Press writes from Harrisburg
that a combination is to be formed,
next, fall, by Regular Republicans,
I )emocrats and Liberals, and all other
friends of purity at elections, to se:
cure an honest election i n 1874.
There is talk of calling a Peopie's
Slate Convention, whose sole purpose
shall be the regeneration of State and
municipal affairs, and which shall
prepare for the election of a 'Reform
Legislature. If ever a State needed
such an organization, Pennsylvania
does. There are many other States,
also, where the experiment could be
tried with profit, judging from the
complaints of worthless legislatures
which are heard on all sides.
SETH HVED of the Brownsville
Clipper says that himself and Vice
President Wilson, traded fifes, time
upon a time, in New Hampshire,
when they were both boys. He
claims now that the Vice President
cheated him badly in the exchange
—the presiding officer of the Senate
giving him a boxwood fife which
rust thirty-seven and a half cents, for
a black . f-bony, for which Hurd paid
two dollars and fifty cts. This is
Hurd's version of the transaction.
As there are always two sides to a
•'fiary, public judgment should be
suspended until the Vice President
is heard from. Possibly an investi
gating committee,• with power to
sand for persons and papers might
reach ali of the facts.
God E RNO R H ART RA Sri . has exer
eked the veto Power with an unspar
ing nand. Special legislation of a
certain character finds in him a de
termined toe. So far so good. There
are those, however, who cannot see
aiiy distinction between a gift of
'Z4 - 2:41,000 of the State funds to the
Centennial exposition and an appro
priation of $75,000 for the Somerset
sufferers, except that the former is a
large sum and given for the aggrand
izement of the chief city of the State,
while the latter was intended for the
relief of the suffering people of a
mountain village. Governor Hart

JusT at-this time, when the indig
nation over the salary steal is becom
ing exceedingly warm, the following
extract from Gen. Hawley's speech
in the senate, Feb. 24, when the mat
ter was under consideration, is pecu
liarly interesting: "One party Id
ready has its grave dug, and the
other wants to beside by side with it.
!lack of these two political parties
are the American people, who will
have something still further to say
about the question. I care so little
ahout parties and elections that, if

what party comes after it. We can't
have an yt hing worse, in my opinion,
than the party which begins, six

slums of economy, to raise our own
salaries, so that we way put iti our

Tut.: Washington county news
papers are just now publishing a
correspondence between Moses Scott,
(-4 , 1 ., of Monongahela city—formerly
a roßitient of this place—and Hon.
Benj. F. Butler, a member of Con
gress from Massachusetts. Mr. Scott
wrote to General Butler, complaining
of the latter's course on the retroac
tive salary bill, whereupon -"olci
Ben" proceeds to "score" Mr. Scott
for daring to protest ,against a law
which is very properly called a
"steal" by every person who did
not share in the plunder. Mr. Scott's
letter as furnished for publication by
General Butler. his no doubt been
badly mutilated since it left the
writer's hands ; but aside from its
spelling and grammar, it points out
a great many Congressional delin
quencies which Genemlßutler, does
not in his reply, explain away. On
the whole, we cannot see that Butler
has made much off of Scott in the
controversy.
Ora law-givers at Harrisburg are
afraid pf the truth and are decidedly
averse to having it told. A few
days ago a libel law bill, which seem
ed to be fair to all, was voted down
in the House. The bill referred to
was known as the "Brockway bill,"
and provided that in all cases of libel,
under the criminal laws of the State,
the truth of the alleged libel, and
that Its publication was - not prompt
ed by malice, but was for and in be
half of the public benefit, might be
given in evidence.

that the aforesaid wife had suffered
cruel and ihhoman treatment at the

more than $1,200 per year. Now in.

AN ENGLISH LADV IN PUISON.
A Remarkable Story by the Daughter
of an English Colonel of infante I:
From Affluence to a Larger Beer Sa
loon.
[From the Newark, N. J.. Advertiser. March 9.1.]
Now being detained at the second
precinct station house in this city is a
fine looking young woman about
twenty-seven years of age, whose
genteel and becoming dress, lady like
manners and evident culture stamp
her person who hasindeed seen bet
ter days. A descent was rnade some
days since upon the saloon under Or
ator hall, a place of questionable rep
utation, and presiding at the piano
at the time was the subject of this
paragraph. She was taken into ens
tody with the other parties found in
the saloon, but when brought before
Judge Lambert she protested her in
nocence of any criminality, and
dt
clared that penury had driven her to
r4 - ek employment as a pianist in the
only place which, as a stranger, and
without any means at hand to prove
her respectability. she could expect
to obtain it.
Her cultured manner and conversa
tion, her evident sincerity and un
a 'reefed dignity of demeanor satisfied
the judge that her representations
were truthful, and he took pains to
separate her as much as possible from
disagreeable prison associations, and
subsequently drew from her a brief
story of her life. She said she was
the daughter of Col. John Hutchin
son Garner, of Garnerville, near Bel
fast county, Down, Ireland, who for
merly commanded the Fortieth Reg
iment British infantry, hut is now a
retired officer, living in wealthy ease
At the place which bears his name.
Several years ago she was married to
Francis Hull, then cashier
of the Ulster hank, at Dentist, the
proprietor of a manor of 100 acres at
Killyleigh, near Belfast. Soon after
their marriage, which was not- one
wholly approved by her father, her
husband attached himself to a club
and soon bee:tine so addicted to gam
hling and drinking that accumulating
debts and the threatened from his
position caused him to abscond to
this country, where she followed him
soon after. fie had saved from the
wreck of his fortunes some ;1(1,000,
but he continued his dissipation and
gambling in New York, and squalid
poverty Soon drove them to apart
ments in a garret.
Then came a struggle for which
neither was prepared, and, after some
weeks of deprivation and goading
, want, the husband caused their three
children to be placed on Ward's
island, and then deserted his wile
and fled to Canada, which is the last
Ow has heard of 'him. Mrs. Hull,
being an accomplished musician, and
quite proficient enough to [earl] it,
sought for employ tent as a tutor.
But she was friendless and without
endorsement of any kind. Hence
she accePted the distasteful occupa
tion of a saloon pianist, while in
that vocation she wit,3 arrested. She
claim, however, that she had been
but a week in - the place, and knew
nothing of its bad reputation. Judge
L . ain ben, believiug her rep ren -
:fon, has written to her father tt de
-1 tailed account of his daughter's
troubles, also to Robert Herron, of
Arlingtou house, who is
heribrother-in-law, and one of the
;wealthiest men of the county Down.
In the mean time, however, he
would like to have Ake assistance of
benevolent people in securing for her
a proper place to stay until her friends
are heard from.
—Here and there a newspaper
makes a heroic effort to say some
thing about future political organi
zations, hut never with success. It
is a had time for new parties to form,
atul a still worse one for the old par
ties to keep their lines firm. There
is it tendency on all sides to forget
partisanship and to look more closely
to honesty and efficiency in high
places. It is- a good sign, and sil.7,ni
lies the awakening of the public tam
sciencv after its long s'eep —a thing
more to be desired that the forma
tion of new parties.

Gift,. From the Governtneut.
It is astonishing to what lengths
the idea ofasking gifts from the gov
ernment now runs--gifts alike from
State and National governments.
The main business of Congress seems
to he to give gifts—and there are cer
tain men in the country, wise saga
cious and prudent Individuals, un
derstanding all the risk's and Intrica
cies of business, who Never enter on
an enterprise without • asking a gift
friim the government. There was a
time when a man would have been
regarded as insane to ask the goyern
ment to pay for other than real ser
vice rendered or actual property and
materialfurnished. Fifty years ago,
the appropriation bills of Congress
never contained an item for other
than money legitimately required to
carry on the government. Now,
however, the times have changed—.
men have changed—buisness is-not
what it formerly was—a fair, square
transaction. It has beeome a wheel
within a wheel—and is operated by
pulling strings. The government is
looked to for all manner of assist
ance. It builds railroads. and gives
them to sharp men. It stretches
long lines of telegraphic wires, and
then bestows them on ft ring. It
subsidizes lines of ocean steamers,
and is in return snubbed byt he own
ers thereof. It gives gifts to men
and women for all imaginary purpo
ses—to some as charity, to others as
payments of claims, and still others
as a recognition of genius and patri
otism, courage and pioneer fortitude.
On all sides, the cry assails the gov
ernment, give,GIVE,I iiVE!!: The
State government is no less harms
sed. Its general appropriation bill
is . a curiosity, its dishursernents
mystery which no man has yet been
able to-fathom. The whole object of
legislation is to secure money—to
get gifts out of public treasuries, to
make money out of the public reve
nues. It is amazinc. On one hand,
a city asks for a million of dollars to
carry on a national anniversary; and
on the other, an individual asks for
an annuity, because he dug the first

The Atlantic Disaster.
The year 167:1 promises to be as
full of dreadful accidents—the result
of negligence, carelessness, or some
other eause that might have been
cohtroled -as was 1572. Indeed, it
could not le otherwise, since every
calamity of the kind, the holocausts,
as the newspapers call them, the
collisions, and • the other varying
forms in which human life is .sacri
ticed now-a-days to the appliances of
modern civilization or man's cupidi
ty, have no effect whatever than to
temporarily ruffle the nerves of the
timid-and elicit an investigation that
ends in smoke or in something worse.
Each one of these accidegis seems out
to he the forerunner of another.
Only a few weeks ago "Northfleet"
went down in the English Channel
with four hundred and fifty souls on
hoard, nod now there is another case
of shi pwreck:still more heart rending,
the news of which will send a thrill
ofhorror through the people Of two
continents. The steamship Atlantic,
one of the noblest of the grand fleet
that ploughs the ocean, has been lixst,
and with !t seven hundred and fifty
lives. As we write, nothing but this,
awful fact is known to us, but the
details that will come later will not
lessen the horrors of theealamity.
The primary cause—lftving out of
consideration the secondary ones, the
pessible, incapacity of the captain,
I the igooranc- of the pilot, the insub
ordination of the crew, and the lack
of life-saving apparatus;--of the logs
of all these precious lives, seems to.
have been a want "Of coal. The At
lantle's supply gave out. To replen

inquire if the Atlantic and the other
vessiOs of the 'White Star Line were
not built more with regard to speed
than safety? They make the fastest
trips; may it not be owing to the
fact that it is because they-carry less
coal in their bunkers than the N'es

morning about ten o'clock word was
sent to the Mayor's °glee' that, a
young woman had committed

tective Guppies . went down to the
house and Coroner West Ull.l nottfied
to hold an inquest. A *porter of the,
Gazette repaired - to• the hi:Mae and
there gained the following informa
tion, from Mrs, F.enma Johnson, the
prOprietress.r 'The house .is a *to.
two story brick, very commonly and
only partly. though respectably fur
nished. The" Madame 'is not what
may be termed of worst, class.
she stated that the girl's name was
Jennie Dyer, that she was born and
brought U D in
Youngstown. Ohio.
She came to her house, on Saturday
evening about five o'clock and asked
her if she could become an inmate of
her establishment, as she was sick
and wished to obtain medical treat
ment. Permission was given her
and the bed of the landlady was
shared with her. She told the land
lady many incoherent stories, and
said she was tired of the life she was
leading. She was not yet sixteen
years of ago, her sixteenth birthday
being the fifth day, of next June.
The reporter wentto the room where
The corpse lay, and a more beautiful
face and form could be hardly im
aginable; lier eyesttjet black, hair ra
ven, and a form plump and petite
and well develoved, though a mere
child in feature—beautiful and natu
ral even in death.. Mrs. Johnson
stated that she first became acquaint
ed with the girl in Cleveland some
eight months ago, and had not seen
her until a few days since, and the
last time when she came to her-house
to board she told her that her moth
er was dead; --. whisky killed her.
Iler mother'became a prostitute after
the death of her father, but she had
always loathed a life of shame; a year
ago last February a wealthy old man
in YoungstoWn who knew her,
sought her out and accomplished her
ruin, under a promise of marriage.
After keeping her for some time he
i red ofher and she was turned adrift.
The girl tried to procure work, but
her condition was such that she
could not obtain any. She had no
chance left her but the "town." She
never used vile language, and it is
said of her that sheabhorred cursing.
even - among her associates. She had
tried once before to - commit suicide
by taking morphine, but a 'stomach
pump was applied in time and she
was restored to life. Saturday
morning she had• a quarrel with her
landlady at Youngstown and came to
this city. In the evening at the
house she went into the kitchen and
it is supposed' there she took the
morphine which caused her death.
At three o'clock Mrs. Johnson no
ticed that she was breathing very
heavily awl tried to waken her, but
she was instetisible. - One of the girls
was called who said that she was
poisoned. Dr. Le. Moyne was sum
moned. he responded immediately.
but arrived ton late as he stated, and
could do nothing for her; she
lingered insensible for several hours.
and then 'wised - away apparently
without a struggle. An inquest was
held by the Coroner, when a verdict
of death from an overdose of mor
phine administered by her own hand
was rendered. The deeeased is sup

—A WilEhi6gton "AI Islip Oh to the
Chicago Tribune hasnthe following in
regard to brother Newman.
About a week ago, after the Rev.
J. P. Newman had been elected
Chaplain of the Senate, SenatorCtun
eron, of Pennsylvania, entered a mo
tion to reconsider the election. There
was a good deal of curingity as t o
Cameron's object. I t now appears
that the movement waa the result of
a little - disagreement among Mine of
the lights of the Methodist church.
Dr. Taffany, whosucceeded Dr. New
man as pastor of the Metropolitan
church, which the President attends,
was a candidate for the position of
Chaplain at the Senate, and was back
ed by Bishop Simpson, who it is
stated, has grown jealous of ,New
man's Influence at the White House.
Simpson, so the story goes, was anx
ious to defeat Newman, and get him
out of Washington. Newman, how
ever, was backed by Grant, who, it
is stated, has taken a dislike to Bish
op Simpson, bemuse the latter Is for
offices for his friends. Morton, act
ing as the Prebident's friend, nomi
nated Newman and had him elected
one day, when the frietids of Dr. Tif
fany were not on guard. After Cam-.
eron made his motion, some person
friendly to Newman went to the
Pennsylvania Senutor and told him
of the fight in progress 'among the
lights of the church. This person
also informed Cameron that he Was
being the eatspaw of the Simpson-
Tiffany party, whereupon the veter
an wire-puller withdrew his motion
to reconsider. To show his confi
dence in' Neriman,,the President not
only backed his claims for the posi
tion of Chaplain, but appointed Win
to the position of Inspector of Con
sulates, with a roving comtnisslon
to go around the world at the salary
of $(1,000 a year in gold, expenses
paid.

Pomeroy and Garrett Davis• Du-
Mons Compliment.
[From Forney's Chronicle.]
When, one day, weary with the
caresof State, the Senator from Ken
tucky was snoozing in his chair, his
name was called to vote. A neighbor
punched his ribs, and said, "Wake
up Mr. Davis." your IIaMP is called."
Half unconsciously the Kentuckian
arose and asked the Vice President
what they were voting on. The Vice
President explained that it was a
railroad bill in Kansas. "Well,"
said Mr. Davis, in that shrill voice
and pointed manner of his, "what I
want to know before I vote is. the
amount of stealage in this bill."
Whereupon the great and good
it /Mercy arose, his face beaming all
over with the smiles only a clear con
science will produce, and said :
"If the Senator • from Kentucky
will permit me I will explain. I have
thoroughly investigated the bill, sir,
and I assure you, if there is any steal
ing in it I cannot find it."
"All right, Mr. President," m
sponded Senator Davis. "if the Pena
tor from Kansas can't find any steal
age,P m satisfied there is none there."
[Laughter.]
An Indiana Juror Offers to Sell
The Indian polis Journal, of March
25th, says: A startling disclosure
occurred yesterday in the trial of a
case in the Superior Court of this
county. A juror, respectably con
nected, and heretofore , well esteemed,
seeks out a litigant and delinerately
proposes to secure him a verdict for
8100 in money. Such a thing has
probably never happened in the state
before, and we doubt if a more fla
grant outrage on the duties of citizen
ship has ever come to light anywhere.
The man is not a "professional ju
ror:" indeed, so far as we know, has
never sat on a jury before; but it
seems he no sooner found himself in
a position of trust, than ho began
casting about to make money by be
traying it. The offense is an outra
geous one, and, though not defined
by statute or common law, it is to be
hoped the Court will find some means
of inflicting a severe penalty. The
accused man is a well-to-do fanner,
being reputed to be worth at least
$.10,000.
