TI10 Htnto Capital. .
To utterly satisfy tho city 6f Philailcl
plila It will bo noccssary to chango tbo
nnmo of this Commonwealth to that of
"TI10 Stato of Vhllttdolphla" with head
quarters at that metropolis. Tho pa
pers of that city nro vigorously urging
tho removal of tho Slato Capital from
HarrUburg : tho Mayor and Councils
nro pushing tho matter ; a meeting of
citl."iis 1ms been held and a committee
of thirty appointed to proceed to tho
Legislature for furthcranco of thsjob-
J cct. Tho benefits of tho chango nro set
forth as follows: "Tho wholo Stato
would bo benefited if Its law makers
wcro brought Into Intimate contact
with tlio social refinement of n great
metropolis ;" "In a great cltyllko Phil
ndclphla tho rascalities which havo
characterized tho Legislature at liar
rlsburg will no longer bo posslblo;"
"Ilarrisburg is out of the geographical
center of travel" and "tho forco of
habit nnd tho inoonvonlenco of reinov
nl havo alono prevented a chango from
being mado long ago."
When wo consider tho manner in
which municipal mattors havo boon
managed of lato In tho City of Brother
ly Love, a prominent official bolng now
in jail for his sharo of tho business, and
tho fraud nnd corruption broucht to
light at tho recent election, aided nnd
abotted by tho police, wo aro not in
clincd to bolievo that the morals of our
Stato legislators will bo benefited by a
moro closo contact with a pcoplo whoso
city government Is moro corrupt oven
than that of New York. If members
of tho Legislature can bo bought and
sold at iiarri8burg how much moro
will thcy not bo bought nnd sold in n
city where monoy is vastly moro plon
tlful and where scoundrels to uso It do
greatly abound. It Is nbsoluta folly to
talk of a chango bolng wrought in tbo
charactors of venal men by a chango of
tho location whore thoy sell themselves,
It Is urged further that tho air of liar
rlsburg "Is loaded with miasmatic va-
por" and "its water is poisonous" but
how much bottoris Philadelphia? Dur
ing tho prevalence of tho epidemic at
Harrisburg, Philadelphia was suffering
terribly from small pox and it is dlfll
cult to convince sensible pcoplo that
this dread dlseaso Is prcfcrablo to diar
rhoea. As to the water, an investiga
tion of that used by Philadelphia has
proved it to be Ailed with noxious and
foul matter contributed by tho various
mills and manufactories along the
Schuylkill and tho drainage from com
oterles. There is not much to bo said
favorably of that argument. As to
Harrisburg being out of "the troozraDh
leal center of travel," bo that as it may,
n nu,, ctfnnirwi 4i i . V,
a city situated on tho extreme edge of
theState can offer no improvement in
that respect. Mr. Samuel Josephs, ono
of Philadelphia's moral legislators
states that tho feeling in tho Houso Is
almost unanimous in favor of a chango.
Wo havo no doubt that thero aro many
members who would gladly welcomo
the removal as offering larger opportu
nities for money making. But tho peo
ple of tho Stato aro not altogether guid
ed by the opinions of Mr. Josephs and
his kind or inclined to accept their
Judgments as in any manner convinc
ing. If a chango should bo mado, great
benefits must bo proved to bo resultant.
As the mattor now stands tho removal
would be attended by an cxponso of
millions of dollars nnd would bo pro
ductive of not ono good result in any
direction whatever.
We are in favor of nil honorablo free
dom of speech nnd freedom of thought
but thero aro those who tako advantage
of both to the manifest Injury of society.
Prominent among tho30 abusers of an
admirable principle aro tho avowed dis
ciples of freo lovo. Thoy should bo sup
pressed by tho poll co authorities as dis
turbers of tho public peaco, and teachers
of pernicious doctrines and as breakers
of all law moral and civil. One f theso
shameful and shameless followers of
Free Lovo, a Mrs, "McKlnley, recently
gave a lecture In New York in which,
among other vile remarks,- she made
uso of the following: "Lovo confined
to one will bo unknown when lovo Is
perfectly developed.'' Thero can bo no
denunciation too strong for such lan
puago, no condemnation so utter ns not
to bo merited. Womon who load noto
riously impure lives, aro under thosur
veillanco of tho police and nro liable to
arrest, but this McKInloy woman is
permitted to openly advocate a life of
degradation which tho laws exprcs-jly
prohibit and punish.
That puro and disinterested polltl
elan Simon Cameron, whoso dovo-Iiko
innocenco and freedom from gullo aro
familiar to tho pooplo of this State, Is
reported to havo mado a speech recently
In which ho used the following remark
ablo language:
"About tho only pleasure and cer
tainly tho only prollt I havo over had
from being In tho Senate, was that onco
in u while I could tako up some lonely
creature and be Instrumental In putting
jnui ur uer iiuo 11 pmco wnero no or sno
would bo independent of tho world for
tbotimo bolng."
Wo know of nothing moro sad in tho
history of modern law-makers than tho
total want of appreciation which has
attended this Christian and charitable
Cameron. After profitless years spent
in tho Senato profitless savo iu tho ro
ward which virtuoalways confers upon
its followers this good andgentlo man
whoso aim has been to succor tho unfor
tunato and aid tho neody, has only sue.
coeded in acquiring a reputation as an
unscrupulous schemer and wily dema
gogue with whom the end has always
Justified tho means. It Is too lato now
for tho world to do him Justice, but in
tho world to como what rownrds will
not bo his.
A FiNEplcturo of Boston is given by
Wendell Phillips In ono of his recent
lectures ou labor reform : "Boston Is a
clly in which overy tenth, person Is u
criminal and every seventh a pauper.
Three-quarters of our farms aro mort
gaged for drink ; two-thirds of tbo pul
pits uro filled with drunkards and tho
bench of Justice is nearly vacant be

Proposed Ch II Sen Ico ltcforni. !
Tho Loulsvlllo Courier-Journal sug
gests that tho following bo Included
ntnoug tho questions to bo put to asplr
ants for scrvlcoln tho civil branch of tho
government by tho proposed board of
examining pedagogues :
1. Who Is your candidate for tho
presidency?
2, How much of your salary as post
master do.you think you could contrib
ute to secure his re election ?
n. Can you swear that you aro physically
strong enough to work llko n dray horso
In his bshnlf from now until tho polls
closo ?
4. About how many votes could you
mnko for your candltlato by working in
that way?
5. Havo you always boon truly loyal,
and If so, how many tlmos did you voto
for tho prcsldont'noblo chief cxccutlvu in
18CS, and do you think you could do It
again In 1872?
G. If tho administration should hap
pen somo.tlrao or another to need n first
class witness In a KLu-Klux case, do you
Bupposo you could remember what It
would bo necessary for you to swear to
on tho occasion?
7. Whon you shall havo found that
you aro n uoraultcr to tuo government
In n very considerable amount, you will
understand, won't. you, thnt you must
kcop tho fact concealed from tho Demo
crat!cprc3s, and that, If the thing should
leak out In splto of us, you must pay for
tho whitewash yourself?
8. In caso it should chance- to occur
to you at no distant day that It would
bo emlnontly propor for you to forward
a Durham colt or a Ucrkshiro calf, a tor-
rler pig or a Shanghnt pup or all four
of them as tho caso may bo to a cer
tain $2.j0,000 farm near St. Louis, whoso
gifted proprietor Is not wholly uncou
nected with tho cxecutlvo mansion nt
tho present time, nro you qulto euro you
would remember to ship, with great caro
and pay tho oxprossago and all other
charges on tho shipment?
V. In conclusion, how much chango
do you happen to havo about your
clothes, and do you think you could bor-
row onough hero to tako you homo ?
10. And finally, where did wo uudor
stand you to say that you keep your cl
gars nnd liquor?
Tho man who knows enough about
opening, shutting up nnd distributing
the malls to answer theso questions to
tho satisfaction of an oxamining board
thoroughly in accord with tho presont
administration would mako a postmas
terof whom tho administration would
Justly bo proud.
Tlio lira of Small Men.
There is much forco nnd truth in tho
following, which wo find in tho Louis
vtlle Courier Journal
Never beforo in our country's histo
ry were tno jpgisiauvo nans 01 tho na
lion so crowded with small men. Not
only small intellectually, but also small
in morals, and small in evervthin? clso
that goes to mako up tho. full staturo of
men wormy to mi tno position of law
makers lor a great nation liko ours,
when the United States Senato was or
namented by such men a3 Henry Clay,
John C. Calhoun. Daniel Webster,
Thomas Benton, Thorna3 Ewlng, Silas
Wright, and their compeersmon no
ted for their intellect, eloquence, pntri
otism and high senso of honor, loved at
homo and respected abroad it reflected
credlton tho pcoplo whoso interests it
represented, and whoso honor it upheld.
Americans everywhere, regardless of
party, regarding It as tho greatest do.
llberativo body In tho world. Not
withstanding tho excitement and bit
tor partisan feeling of tho time, no Sen
ator was over charged with having ob
tained his seat through fraud, bribery
and corruption, or being mixed up with
any rascally scheme to swindfo tho
Government or defraud tho pcoplo to
enrich himself. Then every Senator
was an honorablo man, and thero was
not ono among thom who would not
rather havo received a wound than
bprno a stain. But how have tho
mighty fallen 1 Harlan, Nye, Clayton,
Caldwell, Cameron andBrownlow, and
others, noted for their solflshuess and
moral lopro3y, havo taken tho places
made vacant by tho great mon who
preceded them, befouling tho Senato
and disgracing tho American nnmo.
GovernorCurtin.Wo understand
that Governor Curtln, Minister of tho
United States at St. Petersburg, has ro
signed that position and will return to
his homo In Pennsylvania within a
month or two. This resignation is not
altogether unexpected, and has a polit
ical significance nt this tlmo, which
will soon find authoratlvo expression
in nn Important form. Tho friends of
Governor Curtin havo been systemati
cally proscribed by tho Administration,
through tho controling inlluence of Mr.
Cameron, not only In tho distribution
of patronage, but in every form of po-
litlcal consideration in tho Republican
party. Thoy aro powerful enough to
make tholr strength felt in tho Presi
dential canvass, but havo all tho dlspo
sltlon to redress past grievances.
Horace Greeley declines to bo
considered as a "bolting" Republican,
but, on tho contrary, as representing
tho truo Republican party. In a recent
number of tho Tribune ho says : "Tho
Convention to bo held at Cincinnati on
tho first day of May Is to bo a Republi
can Convention. Neither tho Grant
nor tho Democratic parly can partici
pate in its deliberations." From this
It would appear that ho looks upon tho
Grant faction as notn Republican organ
ization but as simply a corrupt out
growth of tho wealth and power which
tho party has acquired in years past.
Mr. Greeley is right in this, that tho
present Administration docs not rescin
blo a Republican form of Government
in tho truo meauing of tho word.
The Slgus tliatlVlse Men Heed.
Tho lesson of tho political situation
should bo full of Instruction to tho Re
publican party. Tho selection by tho
Philadelphia Convention of a Presi
dential candldatootherthan Gen. Grant
would at onco dlesolvo tho hostile com
bination which is closing around him.
Tho danger of tho disruption of tho
party would thus bo wholly avoided ;
Its success would bo assured. It Is evi
dent he has lost much ground with tho
people within tho last few weeks. Tho
rovelatlons of Custoin-houso frauds, tho
scandal of tho sale of arms to tho
French, tho fastening of tho grossest
corruptions upon gravo Senators, as woll
as upon legislative clerks, and tho vio
lent tirades of his frionds from tho na
tional forum and through tho press
upon thoao who conscientiously differ
with them havo all seriously weakoned
his popularity, even though In none of
the cases mentioned need it bo alllrmcd
that ho Is personally ltnpllcatod. With
all tho disadvantages under which he
would labor as a caudldato it does Boom
tho height of folly longer to press his
nnmo, though ail tno custom-nouses in
tho land swell with arroganco and all
the post-offlcos lncreaio In desperation.

between tho railroad nuthorltlcs nnd
tho oil men.
Tho latest Mexican ndvlcc3 confirm
all tho previous reports of revolutionary
defeats, nnd show that tho rebellion Is
subsiding Into anarchy in tho northern
portion of tho country. At Monterey
tho forced loan is being mercilessly
executed. Soveral foreign stores havo
been closed aud merchants Imprisoned
among them J. Ulrich, tho U. S. Con

"He is fighting a windmill," said Mr,
Coukling of Mr. Edmunds in tho Unl

said Mr. Edmunds "tho gentleman
from New York."
The Chicago Times thinks tho epi
thet "bolter," which has long been used
with effect by tho Radical leaders, is
losing its power, and 6ays that "to bo
styled a 'bolter' is much tho sarao as to
bo described as a citizen who does not
woar about his neck n collar Inscribed
' Ulysses, his dog.' "
Governor Gratz Brown waslatoly
interviewed by a New York Sun re
porter, to whom ho said:
Tho Liberal movement is not strictly
ngainst Grant personally, but in oppo
sition to his pernicious policy. Thero
nro a number or persons in his ndmln
istrntlon who nro equally as bad ns ho,
xn somo respects no is simply tho In
strumont. Tho Liboral movement Is
against that policy which seeks to de
stroy our form of government, which
oncroaches upon tho rights and liberties
of tho people, and concentrates nnwpr
In thohand3 af n small party at tho seat

Is also in behalf of honestv nnil nnnn.
omy, in tho administration of the Gov
ernment, nnu tho necessity for this is
apparent to nil.
The Washington correspondent of
tho N. Y, Tribune says:
It is reported, on good authoritv, that
tho President recontly asserted that ho
Is determined to forco his nomination
by tho Philadelphia convention, even
If ho should bo satisfied that his dofeat,
If nominated, would bo inevitable Ho
said that ho had been so unjustly criti
cised, and so much abused, of lato, that
ho would prefer to bo re-nomlnatedand
beaten at tho polls, rather than havo
tho Republican party succeed with an
other candidate.
An attacheo of ono of tho Harrisburg
papers recently "interviewed" tho
Now nampshireglantes3 whllo sho was
stopping at ono of tho hotels In tho Stato
capital. Tho newspaper man was first
cousin to tho bar-touder of tho hotel in
question, which may possibly throw
somo light on tho following rather po
cullar description which ho gives of tho
Eastern wonder: Tho New Hampshire
giantess is thirty-nino years of height,
and on her last birth-day in Juno, 1871,
was flvo fect old, making her about flvo
feet six inches at tho present writing.
Her waist is precisely twenty-seven
inches in circumference, whllo her arm
is doveloped to the immense slzo of six
feot two Inches round, and weighs six
hundred and soventy-flvo pounds. She
is iu fine health and apparently married.
Leweneoeck tells U3 of an Insect
seen with tho microscopo of which 29,-
000,000 would equal a mite. Insects of
various kinds may bo seen in tho cavi
ties of a grain of sand. Mould is a for
est of beautiful trees, with tho branches,
leaves and fruit. Butterflies aro fully
feathered. Hairs nro hollow tubes.
Tho surfaco of our bodies is covered
with scales llko a fish ; n singlo grain of
sand would cover 150 of theso Bcales,
and yot a scalo covers '200 pores.
Through theso narrow openings tho
sweat forces itself llko Water through a
siovo. Tho mites mako 500 stops a
second. Each drop of stngnunt water
contains a world of animated beings,
swlmmlug with as much liberty as
whales In tho sea. Each leaf has n col
ony of Insects grazing on It like cows
on a meadow.
Tho world uses 250,000,000 pounds of
tea each year, and 713,000'000 pounds of
coffeo, China furnishes nearly all of tho
tea and Brazil ovor ono half of the coffeo.
Over 110,000 pounds of Java nnd 18,000
pounds of Mocha Is produced. Tho
United States consumes nearly ono
third of all tho coffeo produced In tho
world, nnd tho English aro the greatest
tea drinkers out of China. Tho Ger
mans rank next to tho Americans as
coffeo drinkers, Tho Amorlcans con
sumo about six pounds of coffee and 122
pounds of beef per head, counting ad
ults and Infants, cacli year. This looks
largo, but thnn tho Yankees nover do
anything by halves.
WATEit-proof Cements for mending
broken crockery nro usually not flro
proof,and flro proof cemonts aro seldom
watar-proof. Tho following, however,
Is claimed to bo both: Mix a tea cup
of milk with two ounces qf vinegar.
It will curdlo. Soparato tho curd from
tho whey, and mix tho latter throughly
with tho whito of an egg. Finally add
qulck-llmo passed through a siovo until
it as thick os a paste. The cement is
then ready forme.
COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA.
Tho Woman Question.,
In discussing tho Governor's voto ol
tho bill ropoallng tho grant of tho right
of suffrngo to woman, ono of tho mem
bers of tho Wyoming Legislature said s
'Tho Govornor has'nl got no right to
veto this hill. Ho hasn't got no right
to voto this bill nor nothln' that wo pass
unless it is somcthin' witch after it lias

If sho wants ono and icon got it.
No womnn ain't got no right to set

every lawyer lenows it, nnu l uoirt
b'lovo it anyhow. I don't think wo
mnnjurlc3has been n success hero In
Wyoraln'. Thoy watch tho face of tho

Ill Nature. Every day wo meet
with persons who In their f.unllcs nro
cross, illnntttred, dissatisfied, finding
fault with everybody and ovcrythlng
whoso first greeting In tho breakfast
room is a complaint, whoso conversa
tion seldom falls to end in nn cnutmcra
Hon of difficulties and hardships, whoso
last word ut night Is an nngry growl
If you can get such persons to reason on
the subject, thoy will acknowledge that
thoro Is somo "want" at tho bottom of
It ; tho wfcnt of a better houso, a finer
dress, n moro hnndsomo cquipago,
moro dutiful child, n moro provident
husband, a moro cleanly, or systematic,
or domestic wlfo. At ono tlmo It Is
"wretched cook" who stands between
them nnd tho sun; or a lazy houso-sor
vant, or an Impertinent carriage. Tho
want of moro money thnn Provldenco
has thought proper to bestow will bo
found to cmbraco all theso things. Such
persons may foci as3urod that pooplo
who cannot mako thoinselvcs really
comfortable In any ono set of ordinary
clrcumstnncos would not bo so nude:
any other. Dr. W. W. Hall.
A Quarry of Mad Turtles.
A Wood county, Ohlo,paper contains
tho following account of tho discovery
of n quarry of Mud Turtles. Recontly
two men wcro engaged in tho construe
Hon of ditch No. 183. Tho ditch leads
through n marshy swamp, which has
not probably In tho recollection of tho
oldest Inhabitant, been ns dry as this
year, aud oven with tho presont great
drouth, tho team of horses mired
badly that in somo instances they had
to Ulg and pry them out from among
tho sunken bogs where thoy became
entangled. In ono placo whilo plowing
and about 2 feet below tho Burfaco,
they camo upon n literal patch of hit go
mud turtles, somo of which wcro
03
largo on tho back as tho bottom of
Windsor chair, and so firmly imbedded
were somo of thc30 tough customers
that they obstructed tho plow, and
throw it out of tho furrow tho samo
a stono or root would do. Fivo or six
of theso lusty fellows would sometimes
bo turned out of a singlo furrow. They
had probably sought this moist spot
from somo dlstanco as tho best placo to
go Into winter quarters.
In tho city of Romo, thero aro vari
ous and important chnnges going for
ward. Old houses aro being swop
away, new streets opened, new squares
mudo,great excavations in tho old ruins
commenced, and tho city is taking
on a show of life and activity. Wo
trust King Victor Emanuel will bo ablo
to hold his own in Italy, and not mak
such n failure ns poor Maximilian mad
in Mexico. It is quito certain that nei-
tnor tno iinnan nor tno Mexican pcoplo
were fit for self government, nnd will
not bo for many years to como. Both
need n wlso nnd strong personal gov
ernment, nnd wo did tho Mexicans moro
harm, than wo did tho causoof republi
can government good, by interfering
with thom, and threatening tho appli
cation of tho Monroo doctrine.
It is believed that tho oldest roso
bush in tho world Isono which is trained
upon onoslde of tho Cathedral of Hlld
esholm,in Germany. Tho root Is burled
ed under tho crypt, below tho choir.
Tho stem Is a footthick, nnd half adoz
en branches nearly cover tho eastern
sldo of tho church, bearing countless
flowers in summer. Its ago is unknown
but documents oxlst that provo that tho
Bishop Hezllo, nenrly a thou3and years
ago, protected It by a stono roof, which
is still extant.
A HuaE Pie. Tho largest chicken
plo ever mado In Now England, and
perhaps In tho world, was oxhibited at
Bridgeport at tho Episcopal Fair. An
Immenso crowd had asso'mbbled to wit
ness tho unveiling. It required over
ono hundred largo slzPd chickens, fifty
pounds of flour and twonty pounds of
lard for tho crust, a special pan nino
feot in diameter to hold it, four stout
mon to carry, and A. W. Wallaco was
tho only man in tho city who had an
ovon largo onough tobnko it. It was n
