Our Next (lorcrnor.
For tlio past twelvo years, thu ollleu
ofUovornor of this Coiiiinoiiwoaltli hits
been held by Republicans, nuil thu
Detiiuorullo voters nro noxiously Itinulr
Ins; who shall bo our nominee this lull.
It Is coiicmled by till that hu should bo
u HttittMiimu of rlpo experience, onlurB
ol rcputiltluti and utilitipeMcliAblo 1 u-
tegrlty in ordor to bectiro tho votes,
not only of his own party, but also
those of tho iudependout voters of tho
opposition. For six yours past tho Gu
bernnturlal chair has boon filled by n
woak, vaclllulnp; nnd potupous Execu
tlve, whoso namo in fact has becoino rt
byo word nnd a roproach In his own
parly and his successor will undoubted
ly bo a man of thosauio stamp If taken
from tho saiuo party.
In political centres no ntuno is moro
frequently mentioned in connection
wlui this high ofllco, than that of
ClIAULErl It. iiUUKALEW of this CoUll
ty. Wo do not know that ho would ac
eept tho nomination in fact ho has re.
fused it whon it was equivalent to an
election but wodo know that ho would
command not only tho full Democratic
voto of thu State, but also tho votes ot
many Republicans who caro more for
an able, honest nud economical admin
istratlou than for party rules and rogu
lalious. On this subject wo append tho
following editorials from tho Lancaster
Intelligencer and tho Eastou Argus. The
formersays;
Hon. Charles IV. Buckalow lias been
spoken or by sovcral prominent Demo
cratlc tiuwspapers as a candidate for
Governor. Wo Uo not know whether
Mr. uuettnluw would accent a nom
inatiou, but wc do know that ho would
make a very strong candidate. Thero Is
no man in tho Stato who occuulesn
higher position in tho estimation of tho
people than Senator Uuckalow. There
is an nbldini: confidenco in his eoori
Judgment and his integrity, which Is
not eouilued within tlio lines of tho
party 10 wntcn no nas always adhered
nom principle. Tho clovation to tho
uuuuruaionui cnair, or so able and so
pure a statesman, would irratlfv mull!.
iuiK-s who have not been in tho habit of
voting wiui tno Democracy. -We mean
not to disparage tho claims of nny other
candidate iu speaking thus of Senator
Uucifuiow.
Tho Argus says :
Now that tho Democratic Executive
Committee has fixed tho tlmo for tho
meeting of the Stato Convention, tho
question, wno snail no our canuiumeior
Governor? will Intcrestnotonly Demo
crats hut every lionost anduprlghttnan
of either party, wno is in uvor 01 in
nusura'intr reform In tho Lcelslauv
and Executi vo Departments of tho stato.
Tho spirit of reform in tho management
of both National nnd Stato affairs Is
manifesting Itself among tho people.
Thoy want to be secure, in tho future,
against tho enactment of any more
violent, unju3t and partisan laws, for
political purposes, and in tho interest
of corruption. Our enndidnte for Gover
nor should boa man who from his well
known purity of character and unsel
llshnes3 of purpose will inspire tho peo
plo with confidenco in his Integrity and
capacity to reform tlio abuses which
havo made our stato government a
scandal and n reproach to all fair-minded
and honest men. Ho should boa man
who can combine nil tho elements in
favor of honesty in tho administration
of governmental affairs, who will pur
sue no selfish object, whether of ambi
tion or of private gain, but will bo firm,
honest and faithful in tho dischargo of
the duties of his oflico and in elevating
tho moral tonoof public life above Its
present level. Wo desire to say nothing
in dUparagemntof other distinguished
gentlemen who have been named in con
nection with the Gubernatorial nomina
tion when wo assert that in our opinion
tho Hon. Charles It. Buckalow would
bo tho moat nvallablo candidate In tho
comlngcampalgn. Thoconservatlvoand
compromising course pursued by Mr.
Buckalew, In tho past, in relation to tho
political questions which divided the
Democratic and Republican parties; his
statesmanlike abilities, purity of charac
ter and large experienco in public affairs
would necessarily win to hima large por
tion of tho opposition who havo become
dissatisfied nnd disgusted with the imbe
cility and corruption which havo dis
graced tho National nnd State Govern
ments In tho past. We do not know
that Mr. Buckalow desires a nomination
nor oro wo aware that he would accept
one if tendered him. but wo feel con
fident that we speak tho sentiment of
nine-tenths of the Democratic and Con
servative voters of tho eastern section of
the stato when wo say that with him as
our Btanuara-uearer victory win come.
Reform is domanded in all departments
of our government. Tho pcoplo will no
longer trust tno men wno navo rooueu
them In tho past, butthoy must yiold
their place to others In whoso ability
and Integrity thero is no doubt. Tho
"cohcslvo power ol public plunder" will
no longer serve, to hold together tho
diswlving fragments of tho putrid
political comhinations which have their
existence at Washington and at liar
rlshurg, but Hko Tammany thoy must
soon perish by reason of their own
innato corruption.
By tho nomination ofacandldato pos
sessing tho ability,-high honor, spotless
character nud ofticial experienco of Mr.
Buckalow, the Democracy of our stato
will prove their determination to bring
about tho reforms so much talked of
nnd so much needed.
The Libel Law,
Tho Lycoming Standard, in a lengthy
article on thoabo vo subject, takes ground
against any alteration of tho present
law, but makes soveral full-grown mis
tat.es in stating what it now is. In fact
our libel law is n relic of tho old Star
Chamber Court of England, except so
far asnl tered by thopresent Constitution
But that does not protect an editor in a
suit for damages. Ho can not glvo nil
the facts in ovldonce, nor tho clrcum
stances under which tho alleged libel
was published, except In mitigation of
damages, unless he Intends to Justify,
iu which caso tho proof must bo precise
ly n9 broad as tho charge, or it la held
to exaggerate tho libel.
While tho publisher maybe personal
ly Innocent of an Intention to do wrong,
whllo his motives may havo boon Justi
fiable, yet ho may bo mulcted heavily
In damages under existing laws. In
any other civil suit all tho facts may bo
given In ovldcnco, and it is not right
that tho law of libel should bo an excep
tion to tho rulo.
It is bcllovcd that tho appointment
of Soth J. Comly as Collector of tho
Port of Philadelphia will still further
complicato Republican matters In Penn
sylvania, Mr. Comly having been ap
pointed at thu instance of Forney and
ugalnst tho wishes of Cameron, who
threatens to let tho Stato tako caro of it
self, so far as ho is concorned. Grant
evidently believes nnd trusts Forney
uud expects him to carry tho Stato
next Fall. A fight botween Forney
and Cameron would bo nspectaclo worth
soolngand might result in honest men
getting their dues.
Opinion of Judge I.lwcll-
In tho matter of theVExceptlons by

Tho Act of Assembly under which
theso proceedings wero had oxprcssly
authorizes tho Court upon hearing to

of tlio viowers. In this respect tho
Gcnernl Borough Law of 1851 is unllko

In very cloar cases, disturb tho report

ono, fivo to six hundred dollars moro
than tho report. In their estimate of
tho vnluo ot tho property iu Its pres
ent condition somo of theso witnesses
differ fifteen hundred dollars from the
others. We mention theso facts uot ns
any discredit to any of tho witnesses but
merely to snow now mucii moro aim
cult-It is for tho Court to arrive at a cor
rect conclusion man Tor viowers upon
tho spot with nil the fads boforo them.
In ordinary road cases where thero is
dissatisfaction iu regard to nmount of
damages tho only remedy Is by a rovlow,
uu imiaiur ly uuiu yivuii iu iuu mini
to inouny. .,
Under tho borough net thero Is no
provision for n rovlow : but ns beforo
seen wo may refer.the report back when,
lrtho complainant can satisfy tho viow
ers that injustico isdono hlm.they would
without doubt cheerfully chango their
awaru.
IT tho viowers can bo satisfied that
they havo fallen into nu error in resrard
to tho costs ol removing tno houso.dig
glng a cellar nnd filling up in front or
it uy reason or uot Knowing tno condi
tion of tho house thev havo erroneous
ly belioved that It can all bo moved
when it cannot, they will havo tho
power to so chango tho report us to cor
rect tne error.
As tho caso now stands tho Court
would not bo justified in chancing the
report ; tho report being equal to tho
oaths of seven men selected for their
Impartiality and good judgment,agaiust
nlno men of nerhans eauallv (rood
judgment in addition to that of tho
complainant. Tlio testimony is there
fore so nearly equally balanced as to
forbid any attempt at modification. Wo
might perhaps do justico by dividing
tho dllferenco between tho estimates,
But wo think wo would thereby set a
bad precedent. Wo prefer thereforo to
recommit tho report to tho sntno view
ers with Instructions to reinvestigate
tho question of tho damages of Jesso
Coleman1 and, if they seo cause, to in
crease tho same as they shall think just
or to report tho sumo unchanged.
In regard to tho except'ons of George
Weaver wo think llttlo need bo said. In
addition to tho report of tho viowers,
than whom wo could not select better
Judges of tho value of property and tho
probabio enecta oi improvements, tno
testimony produced by tho complain
ant proves that tho market vnluo of his
land would bo much enhanced by tho
opening or tins street.
According to Mr. Appleman's esti
mato tho wholo land is now worth
$2000. It can bo cut up into four lots on
the north and four lots on tho south
sldo of tho proposed street, tho lots on
tho north would bo worth four to fivo
hundred dollars, say $1800, thoso on tho
south sldo from threo to four hundred
dollars each, say $1100. When tho street
is opened, tncrcroro, tnis ianu win bo
worth tu tins estimate, iizw. itir.
Sterner says that as lots for salo it will
bo worth $1000 moro wnen tho street
Is opened. Mr. Shannon testifies that
tho loto will bo moro valuablo after tho
street is opened, but does not say how
much. Mr. corrcu mini! tno vaiuo
would not bo Increased. This with tho
testimony of Mr. Whary is all that is
adduced uiralust tho report. Mr. Whary
is not wen enougn acquainted witn tno
property to givo an opinion.
Whenever prlvato property is taken
for nubile uso and damages aro claimed.
tho rulo of damago is how much less Is
tho proporty of tho complainant worth
In market with tho improvement, than
it was without it. And when tho kw
allows assessments for contributions,
tho question to ba first settled is how
much is tho property worth moro by
reason of tho Improvement. Whon that
is ascertained as to all tho properties
benefited, n basis for contribution is
established.
It Is ovldent from tho report and
from tho testimony when fairly con
sidered, that tho contribution required
In this lnstanco is not exorDiiant.
Mr. Weaver, however. Insists that ho
docs not deslro to sell his land nnd
thereforo this compulsory proceeding
Is to htm unjust. Tnis ground or ob
jection Is wholly unteimblo. Every
citizen when ho accepts a grant or land
from tho Commonwealth docs it upon
tno impiicu conuuion mat no win sur
render it up whenover tho exigencies
of tho public shall require, upon com
nensatiou mnde ond besides this com-
innt thero oxlsts of necessity iu every
sovereign stato tholrlght to tako prlvato
proporty ior puune usu, xius rignv.
of eminent domain or power or tho
poopla existed ludopeuuent or tno con
stltutlon. Tho provision which it con
tains was merely restrictive of tho power
nnd forbid Its exerclso unless provisions
should bo mauo ror compensation.
No citizen by declaring that ho de
sires to keen his property in Its present
shano or for purposes for which ho now
uses It, can thoroby block tho whoels of
progress and prevent thu construction
of needed Improvements in tho shupo
of railroads or streets. As towns and
cities Increase In size and encroach upon
tho arable land or tho county, tho own
ers must submit to the construction or
roads or streets for tho advantago of tho
public otherwlso It would bo in tho,
pOWCr OI a u muiviuuui iu siuy iuu uu-
ward march oflmprovement by saying,
thus far Shalt tnou como put no itir
ihfr.
Tho uiodo of proceeding adopted iu
this caso and the prlnclplo upon which
fhia nwrflsmpnt for contribution was
mado has been sanctioned In u long lino
THE COLUMBIAN
of decisions nud its constitutionality Is
not now nn open question.
Wo seo no reason for disturbing tho
report so far ns regards tho assessment
mado ngnlnst Mr. Weaver.
But ns wo refer It back for reinvesti
gation wo will nt this tlmo confirm no
part oi ltnusoiuiciy.
And now,February 17, tho roport or
tho viowers referred back to them with
instruction to reconsider tho claim or

JJV THE COUIIT.
"An Intelligent colored gentleman"
having been n spectator ul tho Labor
Convention which nominated Judgo
Davis and Gov. Parker, for President
and Vice President, was not pleased
thereat, consequently, In tho naturo of
things, Forney's Press is greatly oppos
cd to tho nominations.
The ovldcnco submitted to tho Clay
ton Investigation Coinmlttco goes to
show that tho Arkansas Senator, nnd
tho pot nnd friend of Grnnt, was only
guilty of bribery, perjury, forgery, and
larceny. That is rather moderate for n
carpet-bag U.nltcd States Senator.
A Fort Wnyno correspondent or tho
Cincinnati Mjnnmrcr lins thrown n
Hood or light upon tho extraordinary
nnd mysterious ploasuro which Presi
dent Grnntseems to tako In tho fortunes
or George K L?et. By this correspond
ent's statomont it would appear that
tho said L;otis no other than n cousin
or tho President's wife.
"A salutary lesson has been taught

vants In tho great number of prosecu
tions and convictions of tho last two

It might bo still moro satisfactory
that tho President shoultl appoint to

Col. Fornoy, apparently uuder grc:
pressure,has let out somo curious secrots
concerning tho ways and moans by
which Gen. Grant was first brought be
foro tho public us caudldato for the
Presidency. It now nppears that some
body promised that ho should bo ro
nominated, if ho would consent- to be
elected by tho Republicans In 1808
Whother that somebody was nuthorlz
cd to make that bargain Is not so clear,
but it Is very certain that tho aforesaid
somebody may havo some difficulty In
carrying out his compact. X. Y. Trib
une.
Tho Truth Aliaut Col. Forney.
Somebody has imposed upon tho
Herald a story that Col. Fornoy is to go
into tho cabinet iu Creswell's place,
Tho fact is that Crc3wcll is not going to
resign, nnd Grant is not going to dismiss
him. Creswell, with his Chorpeuning
frauds, whiskoy robberies nnd nil, i3 a
man after Grant's own heart
But it Is truo that a bargain has been
mado with Fornoy. What ho wants is
to be elected United StateH Senator to
succeed Cameron, nnd that wily old fox
has agreed that he will staud aside on
tho oxpiration of his present term and
allow Foruey to bo elected.
This is tho milk in thatcocoauut, nud

About tho coolest thing that has oc
