It is no uncommon thing to find editors of newspapers shedding crocodile tears over the moral depravity of the age, the increase of crime of every kind, and the general flood-tide of venalitv that is deluging the country. The same general strain of com plaining is taken up and repeated by that chronic set of grumblers, who see only the dark side of things present, and are ever staring backward at the bright side of the good old times. We are of the number of those who, though not denying the general prevalence of much that is evil, are not disposed to condemn the present as worse than the past, but on the contrary look upon it as buoyant with hope and promise tor the near future. But our preseßt ob ject is to show the hypocrisy of those fault fiuders with the existing state of things. A close examination of the class of newspa pers addicted to these gloomy jeremiads i will show that they take special care to fill their news-columns with police reports, murders, robberies, adulteries, and every species of criminal news and statistics. In their zeal to expose the wickedness ot the times, they become the teachers of crime, the cultivators of a taste in their readers for criminal statistics, from which it is but a step to participation. It is thus that thou sands of the youth of the land are yearly made familiar with the whole criminal vo cabulary, are trained to think of, and to dwell in imagination upon every species ot '■rime, and from thinking upon, the way to participation in it, in every form, is easy, and the passage swift and sure. But the res ponsibility resta not alone with the editor, who thus basely panders to vicious and depraved tastes in some, and cultivates them in others. The patrons of such pa pers arc scarcely less guilty than the pub lishers. .111 over the country are men by hundreds and thousands, who estimate the value of the paper they introduce into their families for daily reading, by the size of the sheet or the amount of reading matter, with out regard to quality. From our own expe rience, we know that there is scarcely one in a dozen of either city or country papers that is not literally crowded, with disgust ing police reports, the minutest details of criminal trials, and in which are not adver tised gift enterprises and lotteries, to train the young to gambling, and patent medi cines and obscene books, the character of which is not to be named in decent society, all calculated to initiate the young into the worst of vices. Yet these are daily patron ized by those who complain of the awful de dravity of the times, and the appalling ar ray of crimes every where committed. o believe that there is a much greater preva lence of crime than there should l>c, and that much of what now prevails may be res trained and prevented; but it can only be done, when these same, hypocritical, grum bling editors awake to a sense of their res ponsibility, in wielding for good or evil the immense power of the press, and when men making pretensions to common morality cease to patronize the thousands of filthy and obscene sheets that now pollute every corner of the land. This is a subject that comes home to every head of a family and to every one interested in elevating the moral standard of our people. Let all such heed the lesson, and live up to the princi ples they profess, and henceforth beware of lending their aid in the training of the peo pie to vice instead of virtue. Half of the opposition voters in Bed lord Borough are candidates for County Treasurer, while the other half would be if they thought there was any chance. AVag was overheard to 'say the other evening, within the hearing of half a score of the rivals, that he was determined to support the man who would give him the use of the greatest amount of the public funds, in case of election. He was button-holed, it is said, by half the number present, as soon AS tbc coast was clear, and told they would "make it all right. It is apparent some body wants the use of the public funds. Within the last week, the prices of Hour and grain have received a "grand and lofty tumble in th&Eastern and Western markets. The speculators are rapidly com ing to grief. There is a better day coming. EXISTENCE—LIFE. —Existence is dream ing. Life is action. THE REVISION and CODIFICATION OF OCR STATUTE LAWS. The necessity for a revision and codifies tion of the statute laws of Pennsylvania at tracted attention earlv in the present centu ry. and the project was recommended to the Legislature by several of the Governors of the State. Fruitless efforts were from time to time made in the Legislature to pass the measure. The difficulty seems to have been to agree upon the Commissioners of revision, divers motions having been made to "strike out Alexander Thompson and insert Hugh. Bellas"—"strike out Horace Binney and insert George M. Dallas," &c. Finally, on the 23d of March, Is3o, resolu tions were adopted authorising the Govern or, George Wolf, "to appoint three Com missioners, learned in the law, to revise, col late and digest ail such public acts and statutes of the civil code, and all such British stat utes in force in this State, as are general and permanent in their naturo." By virtue of these resolutions Gov. Wolf nppoiated William Bawle and Thomas I. Wharton Esquires, of Philadelphia, and Joel Jones. E-quire, then of Easton, to be the Commissioners. The statute laws were at that time the accretions of one hundred and thirty years. No attempt had been made to revise or cod ify tbetn from the year 1700. More than six thoti-Hiid six hundred acts had been adopted -ince the commencement of the eighteentli century. The Commissioners brought to the work assigned them great legal learning and diligence, and reported to the Legislature at different times, bills on on the following subjects: 1. Registers and Register's Courts. 2. Orphans' Courts. 3. Last Wills and Testaments. 4. Descent and Distributions of Intes tate's Estates. .. Executors and Administrators. 6. Counties and Townships, and County and Township officers. 7. Weights and Measures. 8. Relating to the Oiganizatiou of Courts of Justice. 9. Roads, Highways and Bridges. 10. Inns, Taverns and Retailers of Li quors. 11. Support and employment of the Poor. 12. County and Township Rites and Levies. 13. Militia. 14. Elections. 15. Inspections. 16. Jurisdiction of the Courts. 17. Commencement of Action - by Sum mons, Capias and Attachment 18. Actions concerning Real Estate. 19. Lunatics and Habitual Drunkards. 20. Assignees for the Benefit of Creditors and other Trustees. 21. Domestic Attachments. 22. Writs of Quo Warranto and Man damus. 23. Liens of Mechanics. 24. Attachment of Vessels. 25. Suits on Penal and Official Bonds. 26. Replevin. 27. Reference and Arbitration. 28. Executions. 29. Insolvent Debtors. Their first report was made January 31, 1831, and embraced the first two bills named above, which were enacted into laws in March. 1832. Of the twenty nine bills repotted, twenty six were enacted, for the most part, substan tially as reported. The 13th, 18th, and 26th. as above enumerated, do not seem to have been enacted. The revised laws were not at first received with favor by the profession; the older practitioners particularly objected to them. Some reading and study and a change from established modes, was rendered necessary. Old lawyers were put upon 3 plane with the younger members of the bar, and deprived of tbc advantage which familiarity with the old laws and methods of procedure gave. However, in a few years, when the laws had become better known, it was generally con ceded that the Commissioners had done their work well, and that the revised code was a great improvement, so far a3.it went. But their work was incomplete. Al though their labors and reports cover a period of six years, from April, 1830, the date of their appointment, until January, 1830, the date of their last report, a great deal of the statute law then existing was left untouched. This is to be collated and codified by the present board, which is also to revise, collate and codify the public and general acts passed since the former revi sion, which constitute an immense accumu lation of legislation, for a volume of pam phlet laws now is thrice the size of one of forty years since. A thorough revision and codification of the public and general statutes is a pressing necessity, which the flight of time makes every year more urgent. It is to be hoped that the gentlemen appointed by the Gov ernor will give the work—a most arduous and responsible one—their undivided at tention, and that their labors will result not only in abridging the size of the Digest, but also in superseding the necessity for so much special legislation, thus reducing the pon derous and unwieldy volumes of pamphlet laws into a more convenient arid reasonable shape. The Copperhead County Convention comes off on the 16th inst. Already the "little tub?,"' which are usually thrown to the whale, are in motion, to secure the po sitions accorded them by the central des potism in Bedford. It is customary for this despotism to select the merest block heads that offer, so that good men are sel dom successful. Men who have minds of their own are not wanted, only those who will submit to the yoke of the leaders, and do their bidding in all things. OoNfF.RVATISM is manhood asleep, and in his dream* worshipping at the shrine of the dead past. RADICALISM is a fierce iconoclast, crush ing the brazen images, and grinding to powder the golden idols of Conservatism, and urging awakened manhood forward to a greater good, a purer life and a higher in telligence, by pointing him to the embodi ment of all perfection in the great 1 A.M. .

While not dar ing to condemn biui openly, they are Dearly all, the administration organ leading off, finding fault with his judgment, charging liim with unnecessary severity, Ac., and re commending (Sen. Thomas as a more suita ble man for the position. All this is done no doubt understanding!}', with a view to prepare the public mind for the removal of "Little Phil," and placing some one in his place, who will consent to subserve rebel interests. In the meantime the hero of Winchester keeps a sharp watch over h : s rebel wards, allowing no fear of Presiden tial frowns to interfere with his sense of duty in keeping the peace. A few days ago when the rebels threatened to break up a Republican meeting, in New Orleans, be promptly placed his troops under arms, drew up the gunboats along tho levee, so as to command the city, and was himself, with his subordinates, in the saddle, prepared to put down any attempt to repeat the Mon roe massacre of last year. Such faithfulness may bring the eallant soldier under the Presidential ban, but it merits the appro bation of all peaceful, lova! and law abiding citizctis, without regard to political opinions. THE Chicago Tribune says that the pres ent inflated prices of wheat are but tem porary, and intimates that they arc mainly due toa "corner" established by speculator" on exaggerated statements of the scarcity of breadstuff's. The Tribune says: "In iess than six weeks the wheal harvest will be gathered in the southern half of the wheat growing belt of the country, and that harvest promises to be a most abundant one. A few weeks later will follow the harvest up to the northern line, and that, too, promises to he a most liberal yield. Under these cir cumstances, every one must perceive that the present high prices rest upon an exceed ingly flimsy foundation. The corner upon breadstuffs has been successfully maintained much longer than the speculators expected; but its time is nearly spent. Miller- l)u\ no wheat at present prices, and sales ol flour are confined to retail dealers, to -u;>j .y i.c imuiediatc wants of their CUMOHICI-. IC - terday there were 1 lIMXH) bushels of wheat and 67,000 barrels of flour in store in Chi cago. The daily receipts are fully equal to the demand for local consumption, and there is no other demand now, and will be none until the new crop runes in. This is a cheerful view of the matter, which wc hope will be -oon verified by the market quotations. FROM WASHINGTON. Th I'li-xuleutial trip to Ralci'jh.— Tin Impeachment matter. Snrratt's fax,. WASHINGTON June i.—The President left at six o'clock this evening on the trip to Raleigh, accompanied by Secretary Seward and Col. Moore, hi- Private Secretary. His departure was in striking contiast to his trip to Chicago last summer. Th< n he was escorted to the depot by iarge delega tions of people of this city, while now a coup le of private carriages containing the Presi dential party wended their way to the Rich mond boat in a most unostentatious man tier. The Secretary of State did not makt up his mind to accompany the Pre-iuent until a few hours before bis departure. The .-ame suite of rooms at the Spottswood House have been assigned to i lie f'resident that were occupied by Jeff. Davis (luting hi- recent visit to that city. At the White llou-c, Itefore the President left. .11 of the Cabinet now in the city were > n band to 1 i 1 the President farewell. Chief Ju-tice Cbasr was al.-o present, anil had brief private interview with the President. The Impeachment Committee will adjourn about Tuesday, until No vein lair or Decern her. thus abandoning all attempts to obtain a quorum in Congress in July. Messrs. Woodbridge and Eldridge leave for home at onec. Yesterday the Committee exam ined Mr. Morrow, another of the Presi deot's clerks, relative to the pardon of'Gayie, who w.i- arrested for offering a reward dur ing the war lor the assassination of Presi dent Lincoln. The counsel for the prosecution have de cided after all to adhere to the indictment for murder found m Suratt's case, and to abandon all intention of trying him on a charge of conspiracy. The trial will, there fore, commence on otie week from to mor row. FKO.W .VKXICO. Maximilian and All J/is Officer* Abac* tht Hank of Lieutenant Ordered to he Shot. Capitulation of tht'apifal. Vera < '/ nz Heady to Surrender. New om.fans May 31, 1867.—T0 night I received a confirmation of the news of the fall of Quo. re turn and of the advice sent relating thereto, together with official correspondence from Vera Cruz. The in telligenee from Vera Cruz says the .-urren der of the Imperialists was beard of all along the lines. The city of Mexico has certainly capitula ted. Gen. O'Haran was shot there lor cor respondence with the Libeials. Vera Cruz will soon surrender. Upon the surrender of Maximilian Juan z sent to Vera Cnt/., I'uebla and the city of Mexico, dispatches similar to thai .s nt to General Berrioza'oal at Matamoras. These state that all the Imperialists, their ammu nition and supplies, were captured on the 15th icst. Maximilian and all efti; tuabove the rauk of Lieutenant are repotted to have been shot at suveu o'clock on the evening of the 16tli, by officers who escaped and ar rived at Brownsville on tbc 27th Iroui Queretary. Private letters received at Matamoras state that Juarez had >.rd>-red Kscobedo to execute Maxiu.i imi and his Generals, and the official paper i San. Lni- Potosi, after narrating the particu'ai <•: :lte fall of Querela ro, states tliut the Secreta ry of War forwarded order- to Bscobedo on the 15th to shoot Maximilian and his gener als. Minister Campbell has received no dis patches but believes the news to bo correct. He is indignant that the letter ot the United States government has been <> unworthily received. The news is universally believed here of the shooting of all. The Liberal forces which took Quaretaro started for the capital on the morning of the 15th. Commodore S. D. Payan, of the Mexi can navy, has been ordered by Borriozabal to command an expedition to Wo; Ciuz, Carmen and Campeachy, to terminate the struggle. The Liberals took po-.-ession of Brazos Santiagnon May 24th, anil also ofthe steam cr Gen. Sheridan for naval purposes. THE DISTRESS OF THE SOITII is shown in i the fact that Virginia raised s4o'ies> for the comfort of Jeff. Davis and his family. Nnnh Carolina contributed &iO,OOO or S."*>,OHO for a monument for tbe rebel dead. The State of Mississippi appropriated H)0 to test the constitutionality of the reconstruction act. Memphis can raise large sums of money to get up tournaments, and, indeed, whenever there is an occasion for honoring the rebel dead, or of testifying in regard to living traitors, there seems fo be no lack of funds, and no difficulty in raising what is required. This to say the least, is a little remarkable. U'ENEKAI, NEWS ITEMS. Tu* Copperheads of Monroe eounty, West Virginia, talk of running MCnu-land, the in cendiary of Chambersburg. for Congress.

Those rebels who were not soldiers, and never mean to be, were disposed to resist reconstruction on the terms proposed. THE complaint recently made against Gen eral Ord iu the interest of the freedmen is not, iti the opinion of General Howard, well founded. General Howard's chief of staff has just returned from an inspection in the Gull Steteu. and reports that tfie situation is, 1 en the whole, very satisfactory. i'nk peop'e of Montana, driven to despera tion by the attack of the Indians and tile neglect of the Government, have determined lo open a war on the ledskins, on their own account. " 'I.o, the poor Indian" may look to his sculp, for there are keen knives being whetted all through the mountains. A s effort has beeu made to cauvass the in dividual views of the Judiciary Committee on the impeachment question, and so far as can be ascertained there is little doubt but that the Committee will fail to report in favor of continuing the project by asking for a July session. A pKMfa RATH c andidate for alderman in Washington solicited the votes of his colored friends, and they said to hiin, "What does yoni official record show that you have done for the advancement or even for securing jus tice to the colored people?'' He could not retm mbei. and they did rot promise to vote as he wished. WARD BEXCHEK says he can give 110 spiritu al help to a man who gorges and oppresses his stomach. He cannot remove obstruc tion- between u man's soul aud his God, un less he can control his habits of eating.

A rich old farmer died and bequeathed a large .-tint to 1)1* daughter, provided she happened to get married to a Catholic priest: if she did not marry a priest, she was to get nothing. As celibacy is an all important vow with clergymen of that denomination, the girl's chat ees ere very slim for fortune, and doubt less the old man wanted to cut her off. and feared to do so ope lly and above board. The practical joke will-be decided unlawful in a court of justice. Mit. GREELEY congratulates himself that the course he has lately pursued in reference to Mr. Davis, has bid a most conciliatory effect on the people of the Southern States, and that the evidence of it is given in many letters received by hint from that quarter.

Pei.-unt of .-edenfary habits troubled with weak ness, laa.-ilude, palpitation of the heart, lack of appetite, distress after eating, torpid liver, con stipation, Ac., deserve to suffer if they will not try the celebrated PLANTATION" BITTERS, which are now recommended by the highest med ical authorities, and warranted to produce an t'm medintc beneficial effect. They are exceedingly agreeable, perfectly pure, and must supersede all other tonics where s healthy, gentle stimulent is required. , They purify, strengthen and invigorate. They create a healthy appetite. 1 hey are an antidote to change of water and diet. They strengthen the" system and enliven the mind. They prevent miasmatic and intermittent fevers. They purify rbe breath and acidity of the stomach. They core Dyspepsia and Constipation. They cure Liver Complaint and Nervous Head ache. They make the weak string, the languid bril. liant, and are exhausted nature's great restorer. They are composed of the celebrated Calisaya bark, wintergreen, sassafras, roots and herbs, all preserved in perfectly pure St. Croix rum. For particulars, see circulars and testimonials around each bottle. Jt Beware ■ tors. Examine every bottle hec tbat it ha- < ■ r private U.S. stamp unuiutila ted over the cork, with plantation scene, and our signature on a fine steel plate side label. See that our bottle i: not refilled with spurious and dele terious start. Any person pretending to sell Plantation Bitters by the gallon or bulk, is an impostor. Any person imitating this bottle, or selling any the material therein, whether called Plantation IJittci- r not, is a criminal under the U. S. I.aw, and will be so prosecuted by us. The demand for Drake's Plantation Bitters, from la dies, clergymen, merchants, Ac., is incredible. The simple trial of a bottle is the evidence we present of their worth and superiority. They are sotd by all respectable druggists, grocers, physi cians, hotels, saloons, steamboats and country stores. P.

It prevents hair turning gray and falling off. It restores hair upon prematurely bald heads. This is just what Lyon's Kathairon will do. It is pretty—it is cheap—durable. It is literally sold by the car-load, and yet its almost incredible demand is daily increasing, until there is hardly a country store that does not keep it, or a family that does not use it. E.
