When tho corruption and venality of
a Legislature Is so notorious that tho
Governor of tho Stalo is compelled to
appeal to tho pooplo against their ro
turn, it is timo fortho frco press all over
the Commonwealth to Join him in
purging ouu Legislative temples from
tho money-changers who yearly con
gregalo there. Ono would supposo that
ilto direct representatives pf tho people
would bo lltoro honest than an Exocu
tive ; but experienco shows that such is
not tho fact, nnd demonstrates that
small pot-houso politicians generally
seek and obtain party nominations, and
aro bought up for tho session by "tho
ring," or by some of our mnmraothcor
porations.
Knowing tho power of tho press nnd
its hold upon tho peonlo.an effort is now
making to subsidize it, and wp aro not
surprised that tho Philadelphia papors
do not publish Geary's message to tho

while giving it, at the samo timo treats
us to a column editorial supporting tho
"pinchers" and "roosters" of the last

Tho Cumulative Vote.
In tho Episcopal Convention for tho
Dioccso of Now Jersey, sitting at New
ark, on Wednesday, Juno 1st, Dr. Gar
rison of Camden innilo a very cogent
argument in favor of minority repre
sentation and concluded by introducing
tho following canon, which was sup
ported by Bishop Odcnhelmer and ac
cepted after a warm but courteous dis
cussion. "In all elections by ballot each voter
shall bo entitled to ns many votes as
there aro persons to bo elected, which
votes maybe cast all for ono name, or
may iliviuo thorn among any numbor
not exceeding tho whole number lo bo
voted for, and any ticket having such
excess shall bo rejected."
This canon will apply to tho election
or tho Standing Commlttco of tho dlo
ceso, to the choice of Delegates to tho
National Convention and to all other
elections ordered to bo taken by ballot,
Its adoption is ono of tho many signs of
tno times whlcn provo tho rapid pro'

Tho midden death of tho famous nov
elist lira caused a general'feellng of sor
row throughout tho English-reading
, world. No writer of modern times has
over attained fo wonderful npopularity,
or dyiug left such an army of sincere
mourners. Tho London Times says
"Millions of people will feel his death
u personal bereavement." He was pre.
eminently a writer for tho people, tho
characters in his novels being taken
from tho middle or lower ranks of life,
ana sketched with inimitable skill and
faithfulness. His works abound in gen
ulno pathos, with true humor and with
tho most rollicking fun. Whether de
pleting tho knowing nnd slangy cock
ney servant, tho desperate convict, tho
tonder and loving young girl, or the
terrible death scenes of tho abandoned
and wretched of humanity, ho was
equally fortunate In his efforts. It Is
certain that no writer has over gained
so ninny sympathetic) aniT loving read
era. He "was but fifty-eight ycara of
sge, and, with his powers in lull force.
it was hoped that many bright and
charming stories would yet be given us
from his pen. His loss is Indeed
irreparable. In tho famous Poet's Cor
ner of Westminster Abbey, In the com
pony of tho great men of letters who
have preceded him, Addison, Sheridan
Thackeray and Handol tho composer
jymg by Ms side, he, who has given
moro genuine pleasuro to tho reading
worm man almost any other who lias
essayed it, sleeps his last sleep, await-
ing mo sounuing or tho Archangel's
trump, ins placo Is ono which will

TUB DEFEAT AND UUTUtiAT.
Sunday morning (May 3d) fouud our
lines reformed and well entrenched.
Our ballcry was placed In tho extrcino
front, relieving Sccloy's regular battery,
which tho day before had In one clmrgo
lost uO men nud as many horses. A
narrow field 2o0 yards wide aiouo sepa
rated us from tho enemy, who held tho
woods behind. As wo occupied tho key
to our wholo lino, orders wore given to
hold It at all hazards j and as retreat
was beyond question, wo unhitched our
horjes and sent them and their drivers
to tho rear. Tho canister was also si
lently piled up near tho muzzles of our
guns, as no other kind of ammunition
would bo so effective at that distance.
Notwithstanding tho disaster to How
ard's Corps tho day before, tho men
wcro In good heart and anxious to bo
led forward, llut a wonderful timidity
seems to have seized "Fighting Joo
Hooker." After gaining so signal nn
advantage at tho beginning of tho cam
paign, his very success seems to havo
paralyzed him. Leo, with a forco half
thoslzoof that of tho Army of tho Po
tomac, divided It In two parts and put
them a day's march apart, and In tho
meantlmo our forco crouched llko cow
ards in tho woods, awaiting an attack
Sunday morning, then, found Hooker,
with 80,000 men, nwattlng an attack
from Lce's'50.006.
It soon Came, nnd was terrible 1 Their
artillery occupied Hazel Grovo, a com
manding eminence, which Sickles aban
doncd under Hooker's orders. Stuart,
who now commanded Jackson's Corps,
put thirty pieces of artillery In position,
which completely enfiladed our lines,
while we could not reach them. Leo
put all his men into tho fight, whilst
two cntiro eorps of our army did not
flrongun! Our bravo men, outnum
bered, wcro beaten In detail, nnd wero
being driven from ono position to nn
other, when Leo's progress was stayed
by tho nows that Sedgwick had carried
tho Fredericksburg Heights, and was
advancing down the plank road to join
Hooker.
To meet this now danger Leo de
tached at onco u largo force, leaving
barely 20,000 men In Tront pf Hooker,
Strangely enough, tho latter lay su,
plnely behind his entrenchments, leav
ing tho Sixth Corps to fight alone against
heavy odds. During tho cntiro night
their thin lino kept making assaults,
but they wero easily repulsed, and wcro
doubtless feints to cover other Import
ant movements.
Monday, May 4th, was n day of terri
ble inactivity to us. Griffin's Division ,
it is true, lnauo a reconnolsanco to our
front, und finding the enemy entrenched
along tho plank road, returned without
loss. Their sharp-shooters, howover,
unuoyed us very much, nud seemed to
pick off our oillcors and men nt will.
Among their victims was Gen, Whip
ple, who was shot close to our Battery.
Berdan's Sharpshooters were then
brought up, and succeeded In routlug
all except ono persistent fellow, sta
tioned behind a large tree, in tho forks
of which he rested his riflo Ho put six
bullets in a sapling covering ono of our
men, nud wa,s only shot by putting
three of Berdan's men to watch him.
On Ills person wero found $18.00 in gold,
$i.50 in silver, $200.00 in greonbacks,
$50.00 in Confederate money, and
three packs of cards.
Their artillery fire was also very effec
tive, and while their guns wero unseen,
their shells wero well directed, correctly
timed, and completely enfiladed our
lines, To protect themselves our forces
hastily built long lines of works, in
which they placed logs, battered limber
chests, knapsacks, dead horses any
thing, in fact, that would stop a bullet.
Abattls, or the Jagged limbs of trees and
brush, wero also placed In front of the
works, so that thoy could easily have
been 'held by a small force. During all
tho firing our men kept as calm as if on
parade, passing tho lelsuro In reading
dime novels, letter-writing, or playing
cards. Among tho curious Incidents of
tho day was tho capture of n Confederate
soldier by his brother, who belonged to
our army. Among the terrlblo ones
was tho announcement that tho woods
were on (Ire. When It is remembered
that our army was stretched out in this
Wilderness, and that It contained our
supply and ammunition trains, thoim-
mlnenco of tho danger will bo seen.
In conscqucnco or tho terrlblo heat somo
portions or tho line had to bo changed.
Hut worso than all was tho fact that
hovernl thousand of our wounded wcro
lying In tho woods, many of whom
could not movo. Somo of these In add!
Hon to tho torment of their wound!
had to sulfor tho torture of n slow, Hn
coring lire.
About 10 o'clock at night tho quiet
along our lines was Interrupted by tho
enemy ndvanclng in strong columns
and tho volleys or musketry ntsuch
closo range became almost deafening,
So closo wero tho combatants that tho
choer and answering yell seemed to
como from tho samo body of men. Our
lines wero easily held, and tho enemy
suiiereu much loss.
Tuesday, May 0th, fouud us still in
Jino of battle, but how humiliating was
our condition. Sedgwick had been do
feated, Fredericksburg ro-occupied, and
Lee's army ngoln consolidated and
flushed with victory, while Hooker
perversely refused to do anything him
self, or permit any ono clso to act
against tho enemy. Early In tho morn
Ing wo wcro attacked in forco, and
continual roar kept up by tho rapid
tiring or tho Infantry and artillery. Our
guns wcro loaded with double-shotted
canister, and proved so destructive that
no break could be made In our line, and
our roes were compelled lo retlro with
much loss.
In the afternoon an unusually hard
storm set in, nnd tho water filled all our
rifie-pltsand trenches. About suniot
wo wero ordered to fall back. For the
first tlmo, then, dismay came upon the
army. After all our efforts and sacri
fices, wo must retreat bofore an Inferior
foe, when no necessity for such n movo
ment oxisted. If, in an open field.
Hooker with 85,000 men could not do.
feat Leo with 47,000, ho should havo
turned tho command over to' Hancock
or Meade.

.MlLLVILLE, Juno 8, 1870.
Editou Columiiian iDrar Sir, You
will pardon my prosuinpllonr&but I.
havo a strong inclination to seo tho sub
ject of "undordralnlng" somewhat von-
tlllatod through tho 'columns of your
valuablo paper. I therefore send you n
few facta pertaining to this subject,
which If you think proper, you may
publish :
"Underdrnlning" Is not of recent ori
gin. It has been in uso to n greater or
less extent rrom tlmo immemorial. Tho
Homau writers on agriculture, Cato,
Calumolla, Pliny nnd others, mako
mention of "undofdratnlng." Differ
ent methods, thoy say, havo been In
uso in different places: such ns form-
lug drains with stones, branches of
trees, straw, Ac, itc. Somo mention
carthen-waro tubes. Such aro in use nt
tho present tlmo, but then, wcro used
moro frequently for conveying water
rrom placo to place. Every Intelligent
farmer cannot but help nt a glauco to
seo tho Importance of undcrdralnlng.
It is estimated by practical writers on
this subject, that two-thirds of tho til
lablo land of tho U. S. need to bo
undcrdraincd. This cstlmato may bo
too high, but It Is an established fact
that thcro Is entirely too llttlo of it
done, particularly In this section of
country. A writer in tho Country Gen
tleman from Ohio, says : "Ono or two
things must bo dono by us. Clay pro.
dominates in our soli, and wo must un
dcrdrnln our land, or sell nnd movo
West." Governor Wright or Indiana,
in n public nddross a short tlmo since,
estimated tho marshy lands or that
State at 3,000,000 or acres. Theso lands
ho says, "wcro generally avoided by
earty settlers as being entirely worth
less.' But when underdraiued thoy be
came eminently fertile." Ho further
says: "I know a farm of ion acres
which was sold live years ago for $500,
which at an expense of less than $200
In draining and ditching, has been Im
proved to so great an extent that tho
owner has refused for it an offer of $3,
000. Farmers frequently nttrllmtc tho
failure or their crop3 to tho "ily" or
other insects, but if thoy wero lo exam
ine more closoly into tho truo cnusu of
tho failure, they would fiud that In ma
ny Instances it Is caused by tho sub soil
consisting of a clayey, rocky or other
impervious substnnco lying too near tho
surface, which provcnls tho downward
course of the water, and consequently
it remains stagnant a greater length of
tlmo than it should. Now it matters
not how much tho laud may bo eleva
ted if this "hard pan" ns it is frequent
ly termed, lies too near tho surface; it
should bo underdrained. Hcnco nil
high lands that contain too much water
at any season of tho year,rcquiro drain
age. Drainage has been defined "The
art of rendering land not only so frco of
moisturo as that no superfluous water
shall remain in it, but that no water
shall remain in It so long a3 to injure,
or even to retard tho healthy growth of
plants required for tho uso of man and
beast." In future articles I will wrlto
upou tho various methods or "drain
age" as used at tho present tlmo. Tho
costor drainage, draining Implements,
what fall Is necessary; effects or drain
ago on tho condition or tho soil ; drain
ago with tiles ; practical directions nnd
suggestions far npcni'ifg ilralns and lay
ing tiles, &c.
Hoping that the farniers'of Columbia
and adjoining counties may glvo this
important subject tho attention It do
mands, I will closo tho preseut nrticlo.
Itespcctrully Yours,

reigns again. According to a careful
count, over 7,000 buildings, of all sorts,
havo been destroyed. Many or theso
wero tho best in tho city. Tho loss or
life has greatly exceeded tho estimate
mado somo days ago. Tho total loss
caused by tho firo is computed roughly
at one hundred and twenty Jive millions
of dollars.
Tho loss of life by tho conflagration
was fearful. At ,somo points wholo

Tho panic among the people was terri

AND DEMO CHAT,
GOVERNOR GEARY'S MESSAGE.
Fellow Citizens! In receiving tho
various testimonials of confidence
which havo been' conferred upon ino
by tho pcoplo'of my natlvo State, 1 nm
deeply senstblo or tho circumstances
under which they havo been bestowed,
nnd or tho corresponding duties nud re
sponsibilities Imposed upon mo during
thu fulfillment of my term of the Chief
Exccutlvo ofilco In your Stato govern
ment. Notwithstanding a heart ani
mated with puronnd iqirlght lntontlons
toward tho welfare of tho Common
wealth, and with all tho faculties allot
ted to mo unceasingly dovotcd to Its
service, I feel deeply conscious that 1
stand In need of your Indulgence, while
1 thus exorcise our of tho prerogatives
of tho position or Governor to address
tho pcoplo when in his opinion ho is
J ustlllcd by circumstances affcctlug their
welfare aud Interests; nnd lo expect
from them an honest, candid nnd liberal
support In return.
With such clrcumstnnccs now beforo
tho peoplo of Pennsylvania, I fed that
I would bo recreant to my duty, un
grateful to a generous peoplo, and un-
truo to myself, If I should fall to express
to you my opinions upon a subject of
public concern, which demands from
you immediate attention, nud prompt
intelligent aud independent action,
Tho inviolability of thoSinklng Fund,
by which your public debt Is to bo ro.
duccd and finally extinguished, must
bo maintained against all nttacks upon
it, whether open or secret I A public
debt is not a blessing but an evil I an
evil not to bo measured by tho amount
of tho direct pecuniary burden It im
posos upon tho pooplo, but by its wholo
effect, tho cntiro nmount of nil Its con
sequences. Theso consequences have
been pointed out so fully by tho fathers
of tho republic, and by tho most reliable
writers upon political economy, nnd a
conviction of them, is so deeply im
pressed on tho minds of nil reflecting
men, that I need not recapitulate them,
nor Insist oven upon their existence.
Tho Stato debt must bo paid; paid
honoUlynnd to tho utmost farthing,and
as soon ns it can reasonably bo delic
to this doctrinal am irrevocably pledg
ed In every possible manner and tho
credit of tho Stato must bo kept up to
its highest point, In order that this im
portant object may bo most readily ac
complished. No belief or suspicion of
bad faith or of profligacy, on our part,
should bo permitted to got abroad or to
derivo tho slightest support or counte
nance from tho conduct of our govern
ment in any of its branches. It should
bo understood overywhero that wo
havoan incorruptlblo and faithful ju
diciary; a Legislature and an Exccutivo
disposed to work together, aud to co
operate heartily in maintaining tho
honor of tho Commonwealth.
Tho operation or tho Sinking Fund
was temporarily Interrupted, or rather
weakened, by tho recent war, but by
tho blessing of Heaven upon tlio patri
otic efforts of tho nation tho days of
peace havo returned. Thcio can now
bo no excuso for divorting from that
fund any or tho monies pledged to It by
tho Constitution and tho laws, nor for
tampering in nny manner with Its reg
ular administration.
But it is known to you that a bold
and daring attempt was mado in tho
legislature during its last session, to In
vado tiio Treasury and seizo tiio pro
ceeds or tho saio or tho public works or
tho State, deposited thcro, in tho sink
ing Tumi, for the uso or certain affiliated
corporations of this Commonwealth,
and that that attempt was defeated only
by tho interposition of tho Executive
veto. This was to mo an ungracious
and unpleasant task, lo resist tho ma
jority in tho legislature composed of
Senators and Representatives clioosen
by you, under tho regular forms of tho
Constitution, presumably for their In
teliigoncennd integrity; and it was in
expedient", perhaps, as n question or
personal Interest and ease, that I should
incur the hostility or powcrrul enemies
by tho course adopted. But I saw bo
Tore mo tho open path or duty, pointed
out by tho clear words or tho Constitu
tion and by my oath or ofilco ; and I
did not hcsltato brtroat tho subject with
tho firmness nud action which tiio urg
ency or tho case required-
Tho bill to distribute tho securities Jn
tho sinking ftmd among sovcral newly
Incorporated railroad companies, and to
substitute for them very inferior, ir not
utterly worthless obligations, was sent
to mo only on tho day next preceding
tho final adjournment of tho legislature
although It had passed both houses
about two weeks beforo. Borrowing
tlmo from tho usual hours of rost,
was enabled, tho next morning, to ro
turn tho bill with my objections to tho
House, In which it had originated,
xnero its lurtner consideration was
postponed nnd no final Judgment upon
it was pronounced. It stands now
nmong tho open questions which may
no revived at a future session. It may
agabi bo introduced and passed next
winter or at any subsequent time, with
out embarrassment from any prior de
cision of either IIouso against It. And
if the membership of both houses shall
ue so mado up at any tlmo that a two,
third voto for thomoasuro can bo oh
talncd In each, its enactment into a law
will becomo certain, and tho burden of
your taxes will bo Inevitably Increased
and prolonged.
An executive veto is In tho nature of
an appeal to tho pooplo, to enablo them
to pass upon controverted questions In
volving gravo considerations of public
policy or safety. Upon a question of
tills kind, iu which every man, woman
and child In tho Commonwealth Is in
forested, this great prerogative of the
Executive, conferred by tho Constitu
tion, should bo fearlessly exorcised. Is
not this such an occasion? Is not tho
subject to bo considered vitally Impor
tant? Isit not urgent that you should
determine It for yourselves, In tho so
lection of men to represent you in tho
legislature of 1871 '.'
Bo tills a? It may, this question is Iu
fact submitted for your Judgment. Tho
Issuo upon It was distinctly and ononly
mado at tho last session between tho
legislature and tho Executive, and that
issuo is now before you for your arbitra
ment, and you should Instruct your
representatives, in oach and ovcry
county In accordance with your wishes
and determination upon this Important
subject.
Should you, by your indlffeienco to
tho question, or by u careless and uucal-
culatlng choice of the persons to rep
resent you In tho legislature, encourago
and strengthen the combination of men
who doslro and threaten to invade your
treasury, icst assured that tho vast
fund nowfiiicredly dovolod to tho pay
KLOOMSBUlitt,
ment of tho public dobt will bo seized
und cnrrlod off. . ' ;
Tho nlno and n half millions or dol
lars or securities In thaf'fund, with nil
tho interest to nccruo thereon, will bo
voted nwny rrom tho people's treasury;
tho Stnto credit will bo prostrated; your
taxes will bo Increased, ami your Exc
cutlvo will bo impotent to help you.
If, on tho contrary, allvo to your In
terests and honor, you sustain tho np-
neal sent to you from tho Exccutlvo
Chamber, and you nro now about to
select your candidates for representa
tives, you should detcrmluo to re
affirm, with emphasis, tho command of
tho Constitution; thut "no part of the
said sinking fund shall bo used or up
plied othcrwiso than In-tho extinguish
ment of tho public debt," you win
strlko a Just, sovero nnd timely blow nt
corrupt legislation und protect your
selves against grics-ous pecuniary loss,
Tho lesson will not bo lost. Its salu
tary effect will bo great and lasting.
Both for the present and tho ruturo It
will Improve tho tono or tho public
morals; repress tho unblushing effront
cry and corruption or tho lobby; cur
tall the influence or nrrognnt corpora
tions; and secure tho sincoro commen
dation or all good aud patriotic men.
Tho assault upon tho treasury, in the
passngo or tho nlno and n hair million
hill, though tho most conspicuous ox
nmplo or tho ovil influences or corpora
lions upon tho legislature, is not tho
only one. It possesses pre-eminent Im
portnnco, but .It does not stand nlono.
Then, fellow citizens, has not thu tlmo
como for determining tho question ol
titlo tosoverclgn powerin this Common
wealth? Is that power a rightful and
Indefeasablo ostato of tho people, or
docs It rcsido In incorporated compan
ies created by our laws? Will you
with your eyes open, consciously sur
render tho control over your own rep
resontatives, and glvo your consent
that corporatloin shall dccluo your
laws ? Shall your government bo pure
patriotic and just, truo to yourselves
and truo to sound principles of admin
istration; or shall it bo tho instrument
of corpornlo ambition nnd avarice, and
nn object of public Jest, rldiculo and ro
proach ? Or, in other words, shall cor
porations supersede tho government
aud becomo tho masters of tho people?
And now, my fellow-citizens, witii
this warning, I loavo this Important
subject In your hands; trusting that you
will bo inspired with tho will and the
resolution to defend tho integrity of
your government and to prescrvo un
sullied tho credit and tho honor of tho
Commonwealth.

the Nwiito Vote. At a recent elec
tion for Town Commissioners in Ches
terlown, Maryland, tho negroes carried
tlio day by ono of tho meanest specic3
of fraud that tho Fifteenth Amend
ment lias yet produced. According to
tho charter of tho town nil voters nt a
town ckcllon are required to bo free
holders. Out of tiio ono hundred and
fifty darkeys who desired to march to
tlio polls not moro than two or threo
could point to a foot of laud they pos
sessed. Hut this being tho first election
nt which tlio negroes wero to voto in
ICent county, tlio emergency required
that they should deposit their ballots,
right or wrong. Hence tlio fraud wo
refer to. It happened that llioro was
ono negro in Chestertown who owned a
small and worthless patch of land adja
cent to tho river. This ho divided into
lots of ono foot squnro and mado dcods
of it to his fellow colored would-bo
voters. As a consequenco ono hundred
nnd fifty negroes, representing just ono
hundred and fifty feet of land, went to
tho polls, nnd claimed and secured
votes as freeholders, nnd elected tholr
ticket. Tho wholo thing, which throws
Iho repenting frauds of Now York en,
tlrely in tlio shado was cugiucercd by
radical politicians. Naturally euough
tho bonajldc freeholders of Kent county
nro highly indignant nt tho outrage,
but tliero appears to bo no help for
them, and thoy aro obliged to look for
ward to tho day when a "whlto man
will bo ns good ns a nigger" in renlity.
