Client) anil Xnstr,
The Scr.inton Times oifers tho follow
Ing suggestions to tho Incoming legis
lature of this stato :
There Is ono thin? we wish to seo at
tended lo at Ilarrlsburg this winter,
Hud tlii-t is to liavo tho prico of legisla
tutors Mtsedto some sort of decent price,
As lttfowis wo havo to blush every
tlmo ivp talk with a New York man on
tho suMect of legislation. vvV'liIIo lozi.s
latnrs at Albany oro worth from $1,000
to $10,000 wr lioad tlio samo article can
lie bought hero for from $5 to $o0 each.
When wo consider tho great wealth
nrulmrilvl intorMts of our state, this
i.( a most humiliillng c3mparison. Wo
nail iiujii all our senators and mom
ber.s of tho assembly who havo any
state prlilo, not to sell themselves ono
cent short of tho ruling rates at Albany.
Tlio dignity of our stato must oo mam
talned and in order to do it wo must
show tho country that wo havo as val
uablo legislators as can be furnished by
any otnor stato in tno union.
Wo endorso tho abovo cleverly sar
castle advico of our sprightly cotempo
rary, but perhap3 it would bo as well to
look a little further into tho matter,
On tho general princlplo that a man
ought to receivo tho worth of his mon
py parties ongaged In tho business of
bribing legislators should hardly be
called on to pay much tho law-makers
aro not worth it. AVo do not know
of what material New York members
of assembly aro composed, but wo havo
no hesitation in saying that tho aver
Hgo Pennsylvania member, who can bo
bought, Is dear at $50. Wo have no re
gard for men who bribe, but as between
them and thoso they buy, they are by
far tho less contemptible. It would af
ford us great pleasure to know that not
only were these legislative rascals kept
down In prico, but that thoy weroswin
died out of oven what was promlsoil
them. Wo might oven alford to sink
our Stato pride, to have tlieso fellows
"sold" In moro ways than one. Tho
Times Is inclinded, for "tho dignity of
tho State," to put up tho prico of legis
lators and as they are bound to sell
themselves it may bo best after all to
make them as expensive luxuries as
possible.
The Next Test.
Tho world's history is full of examples
of brave men struggling to repel Injus
tice and correct wrong, and howover de
feat may como to thorn, their batllps
never eeaso until their objects havo boon
accomplished. A reform once begun
never goes backward. It may be Imped
ed, defeated temporarily, but this only
tends to purify those struggling for its
uccess and Intensify their vigor for its
final triumph. Thu3 with tho men of
Pennsylvania who havo started out to
remedy tho evils of a foul political rule,
and whoso first bittlo was fought in Os
tobor la-it. Those heroes aro resolved
never to closo their werfaro until thoy
have attained that for which thoy fight.
Tho Oetbrr election In this Stato was a
vindication of all that was alleged
against tho foulness of tho Cameron
Treasury King, because tho develop
ments already tnado In tho city clearly
show that tho b id moa thon arraigned
KHor'od to far worse frauds than thoso of
which they wero charged to escape tho
penally of their Justly deservod de
feat. Tho next great test will boon tho elec
tion of a Stato Treasurer by tho peoplo,
whon wo want to seo deneral Camoron
allvo and ablo onco moro to lead his
latcllltcsinastrugglo for power. Whon
tho time comes to elect a Treasurer there
will bo "nothing behind It :" tho con
test will bo ontirely on Its own merits,
nnd tho virtues, Integrity, and capacity
of tho men Involved in it. Thcro will
bo no national olectlon to sccuro or mora
partisan dlsclpllno to maintain. As a
matter of coursOjtho Treasury Ring will
bavo Its way, becauso tho dark corners
lu tho vaults of that department cannot
bo swept up, their foulness purified,
and their records arranged to tho satis
faction of tho peoplo In ono year. Tho
Itlng must control that office or becomo
bankrupt. Hence wo look to tho election
of a Stato Treasurer by tho poopla with
a Uvoly interest, and trust wo may Uvo
to tako part in it. Tho field is now an
open ono on alltheso great tests. To day
tho work of reform will comraenco In
tho Constitutional Convention, and In
tho meantime let tho pross all over tho
Stato contlnuo tho bold denunciation of
wrong lu politics whorovor thoy dls
covor It. Lot fraud bo exposed In all Its
shapes, and ovontually tho wrong-doers
will be brought to justice Press,
The Loulsvlllo Courler.Journal, tho
editor of which has 'boon accused of

annlveriary tho wirld has ever

That tho completion of tho ilrst con-
turv of our cxlstenco should bo mirkod
by somo Imposing demonstration is
wo bellovo, tho patriotic wish of tho
peopl ) of tho wholo country. Tito Con
gress of tho United Statos has wisely
decided that tho Birth diy of tho Great

Ills designed to bring together, within
a building covering fifty acres, not only
tho varlod productions of oar mlnoj

specimens of ovcrythltig that America
can furnish, whether from tho brains
or tho hand of her children, and thus
mako ovident to tho world tho advan
cement of which a self governed poo

In this "Celobration" all nations will
ho invUcd to participate ; Its character
being International. Europo will dls-
tilav her arts and Manufactures, India
hor curious farlcs, whilo newly opened
China and Japan will lay baro tho troas

for tho palm of superior excellence.
To this grand gathering every zone

No mineral shall bo wanting ; for what
tho E-tst lacks tho West will supply.
Under ono roof will tho South dlspl.iy

that cotton into cloth. E ich section of
tho globo will send its best offerings to

Union, as a member of ono united body
politic, will show to her sister States
and to tho worTd', how much alio can
add to tho greatness of tho nation of
which sho is a harmonious part.
To mako tho Centennial Celebration
such a3 tho patriotism and tho pride of
every American demands will reiiulre
tho co-operation of tho peoplo of the
wholo country. Tho United States
Centennial Commission lias received no
Government aid, such as England ex
tended to her World's Fair,and Franco
to her Universal Exposition, yet tho
labor and responsibility Imposed upon
tho Commission is as great as in either
of thoso undertakings. It Is estimated
that ten millions of dollars will bo re
quired, nnd this sum Congress has
provided shall bo raised by stock sub
scription, and that tho peoplo shall
havo tho opportunity of subscribing in
proportion to tho population of their
respectivo States and Territories.
Tho Commission looks to tho unfail
ing patriotism or tho peoplo or ovcry
section, to seo that each contributes its
share of tho benefits of an cntcrprlso in
which all aro so deeply interested. It
would further earnestly urge tho for
mation in each Stato and Territory of a
centennial organization, which shall In
tlmo seo that when tho nations aro
gathered together in 1870 each Com
monwealth can view with pride tho
contributions sho has made to the nation
al glory.
Confidently relying on tho zeal and
patriotism c'cr displayed by our peo
plo in every national undertaking, wo
pledge and prophecy, that tho Centen

greatness, wealth and intelligence, can
be fostered by such institutions as those
which havo for ono hundred years bless

Keep Him Out.
Wo notice that soveral prominent
democratic journals aro urging tho cau
cus of tho democratic merabors of tho
legislature not to permit tho Honorable
Samuel Jo3ophs to participate In their
proceedings. Wo Join with thosojour-
nals In expressing tho hopo that ono so
notorious and unscrupulous, whoso
namo has passed Into a synnoym for leg
islative corruption, should no longer bn
recognized as a democrat. Tho fact that
such men partlcipato in tlio proceedings
of tho democratic organization is an clo
ment of weakness in tho party. It Is
Idle for us to denounce radical corrup
tion, howover glaring and widespread.
when tho chief of legislative rings and
tho most sharaeloss of legislative roos
tsrs claims affiliation with our own par
ty and has his claim admitted. Wo must
purify ourselves from tho contamination
of such parasites beforo wo can enter
with success on tho mission of reform
ing tno stato government, uesiuos, wo
know that a man whoso moral convlc-
tions aroso bluntod by a long course of
political prostitution, will not hesltato
to betray thoso with whom ho protends
to act, whenever his own Interest seems
to require It. Thrico, at least, If ho bo
not wofully bellod.has this man Josephs
beon induced to desert his party colors
and act with tho enemy. To expect any
better of him In tho future Is an oxhi
bition of tho purest mental Imbecility,
and to refuse to purgo tho party of him
now is a manifestation of tho simplest
moral weakness. And let no man sup
poso that the party will bo weakened by
tho excision of such tumors. Tho organ
Izatlon will gain health and strength by
tho lopping off of such excrescences
Wo hope, tlierefore,that tho domocratlo
caucus will havo tho nervo to oxcludo
this man from their body,and wo would
rejolco If thero would bo nulllcient lion
oaty and moral forco In tho houso noxt

over, n very decided majority in favor
of adjournment. An amendment was

Mr. JCalno said that a resolution had
beon offered a fow days ago directing
tho president and clerk of tho conven
tion to issuo certificates to various
members for their fifty dollars, as pro
vldcd by tho act of assembly, for
stationery and postage. Tho resolution
had passed, but ho understood from tho

ho had tho powor, and would not as
sumo any such authority, as to glvo
certificates to moinbcrs for their station
cry, postago or anything olso, until tho

by the commltteo on accounts. That
was tho reason ho offered that resolu

TIjY TO TIIE UENEWAIj OP NOTES.
An opinion was recontly dolivered In
theSuprorao Court by JustlceSImrswood
in tho caso of Ellzaboth A. Brown el al.
va tho Second National Bank of Erlo,
Involving tho Important legal point
whether a national bank which holds
Its charter, or authority to transact Its
business, undor tho act of Congress, for
feits tho amount of monoy loaned by it,
whon a higher rato of interest Is taken
than Is fixed by tho law of tho Stato
wheretbo bank Is locatod. Tho caso Is
an error to tho Common Pleas of Erie,
and carao up In this wise. Ono V. M.
Thompson, nn oil operator at Erlo.from
16G1 to 16G0 had sundry notes drawn by
himself to tho ordor of Conrad Brown
(and endorsed by Brown) which notes
wero discounted by tho BecondNatlonal
Bank of Erlo, nt nlno per cent. Many of
tlio notos woro ronowed from tlmo to
tlmo, and tho discount paid ntoach ro
nownl. Ono of tlieso notes for $10,000,
now In suit, was so discounted and the
proceeds wont to Thompson's credit ;
two other notes existing under similar
circumstances and drawn for $1,000 and
$2,000 respectively, being llkowlsa in
suit, making n total of $22,000. Court
below ruled that tlio act of Congress Is
tho law of tho bank that it makes no
buch ponalty as a forfeiture of tho dobt
BLOQMiSBUHGr,
for tho violation of lis rcstrlcllon as to
tho nmountof Intorcst charged that
It docs mako n forfeiture of tho Interest,
but not of tho body of tlto loan. This
ruling tho plattitlH' In orror,Mn Brown
testator of Oonr.ul Brown, tho ondonor,
who was sited for tho notes dishonored
by Thompson), makes tin bads of her
writ of error.
Justlco ShflMWood, In passing upon
tho caso Monday, said s "That n closo
examination of tho' words or tho net of
Congress or Juno 3 1, 1801, will show
that It Is Intended todraw n distinction
between tho rcnowalof n discount nt nn
unlawful rate of Interest nnd tho actual
consummation of the usury by receipt of
It In payment of the noto when duo. It
Is declared by the 30th section that "tho
knowingly receiving or charging, n rnto
of Interest greater than tho aforesaid
shall bo hold nnd adjudged n forfeiture
of tho entire Interest or tho nolo, bill or
other ovldonco carries with It, or which
was agreed to bo paid thereon." This
has evident roferonco to tho lndorio-
ment of tho contract by Judicial process
In which caso It Is provided that It shall
bo held and nil) udged that tho bank shall
forfeit nil tho Interest that is, shall re
ceivo only tho sum actually loaned.
Where tho bank shall actually recclvo
tho U3ury, provision Is tnado for tho re
covery of twlco tho nmount nf such il
legal interodt by the person paying II ;
on condition that tlio action bo corn-
menced within two years from tho tlmo
tho usurious transaction occurred. This,
in tho opinion of tho Justice, defines
clearly tho distinction with regard to
tho renowal of notes mentioned In the
opinion nt tho outstnrt. If there were
no special limitation in tlio act, (and It
has no necessary connection with tho
other clauses no consistent construction
could bo put upon tho Iangttigo of tho
section taken altogether, oxcept by
holding that no nclioncau bo maintain
ed for tho singlo Interest neither bo
foro nor after it is paid but as to that
tho remedy is by defence ns to tho no
tion on tho nolo or loan, In which caso
tho entire interest shall bo hold nnd nd-
udged to bo forreltod. There may bo a
good reason forth!?, if It was tlio inten
tion of Congress to glvo f ho banks a
locus penitcnatiac, so far as tho penally
of doublo tho amount was concerned,
nnd nllow them to savo It by not act
ually taking It upon tho maturity of tho
debt. This nccords with tho general cur
rent of the decisions upon tho Intent
of tho usury law, wherever tho contract
is not of itself declared to be void of tho
statutes. It is actual payment of Iho faco
of tho usurious contract cither in part
or In wholo which consummates (ho
usury, and from which tlio limitation
of tho action for tho penalty commences
to run but lawful interest may bo re
ceived in an action for the principal.
The opinion winds up by affirmation of
Judgment in favoroftito bank, and tho
citation of numerous authorities on tho
subject.

Tho Prosidont has remitted the son-
tenco of Paymaster Hotlgo who was
convicted some limosinco of embezzling
tho sum of $150,000 ofthopeoplo'a mon
ey, and sentenced to ton, yoaw impris
onment therefor. Wo think tho Presi
dent's action t wrong one. Hodgostolo
this itnmonso amount whilo acting as n
Government official, and sunk it in
speculations. Tho deed, or rather se
ries of deeds, extending over a long
period of tlmo was dono deliberately
and with a full knowlcdgo of its crimi
nality and fully merited tho sentence
pronounced.
In this Stato whore scoundrels aro tho
recipients of oxecutlvo clomoncy when

paign require, tno paoplo liavo been
mado heartily sick of tho power placed
In tho Governor's hands, and would
willingly soo it abolished, but it is a
much worso thing to contomplato when
tho President Interposes between a felon
and tho wrath of an indignant peo
ple. There is little or nothing to restrain
public plunderers, if thoy can bo sure
of Influenco sufficient to obtain Presi
dential iuterferonco in tho event of
their detection and sentencing. It
would doubtless liavo had a beno-
ficlal effect upon all such men if Hodgo
had beon compelled to undergo his itn
prlsonment to tho uttermost day.
