Hhodo Island is kicking up a miniature

ble. Hlntc, it is true, promises not to resist
the t" tilted States by forco of .mm, but he
plainly intimates that it is because lie is too
weak It seems some of tho United States
officials hnvo been riding over the authorities,
and laws of little Miotic Island as roughly
as they are accustomed to in the South, and
when resistance was threatened they called
an armed vc-sel to their ail. The Iihodr

ll.n. Butler says he is going to Uurope
during tho ensuing season, As most if not
all the countries of that continent have laws

cessary for the President to give him some
sort of commission to enable him to stay
there. Silver spoons aro plenty iji Europe,
but unfortunately for lien, ho is known and
tho police are efficient there as well as abun
dant. If Grant must commission him lie
had better be sent as plenipotentiary to some
of the cannibal islands.
lion Joseph K. Chandler, of Philadelphia,
in a paper read before the social science
nssocilttian of that city, takes the ground
that education is not to be regarded as a
prevention of crime; it is the power of
science nnd religion and not of intellect
which keeps men virtuous. lie has had a
long experience as a careful observer of con
vict life, and says: "While, in the lowest
order of crimes, T may have found more
unletteced than lettered criminals, I have
found the former more amendable to gentle
moral dealing than the latter were."

Sonic queer cases are likely to arise under
tho Civil-Kights-Xegro-'Equality bill. In
"Washington city, n few days ago, a Saloon-
keeper was arrested under it for refusing to
sell liquor to two darkies. Tho magistrate.
however, decided that the bill did not apply
to bar-rooms or the sale of liquor.
In another case a darkey barber refused
to sh.avc two sablo bicthreu, wiying he
worked only for gentlemen. Held, that a
man may work for whom he pleases, despite
tho Civil I'ights bill ! The armv will have
to enforco tho bill, as the petty officers ovi
dently will not, except in extreme cases, or
where political necessities require.

The Senate is pushing through a consid
erable amount of legislation, of indifferent
interest, which it is hoped the House will
not toti-'h. 1'he bill attacking the new Con
stitution puwed tho Senate, in a bungled
iliapo, Jtnit has not yet been taken up in tho

IVth Houses have agreed to adjourn on
tho 18th inst
Congress Adjourned 1
bsoiutcly and certainly the most glori
us adjournment that over occurred on the
Imcrican continent. It is conceded to have
been not only tho most corrupt, but in all
respects tho lt'.nt patriotic and basest body
that ever had official existence at Washing
ton. A universal sense of relief pervades
the land since its demise and there are none
to give it honor. Thera wero good men of
both parties in it as well as bad of both
but tho majority was led and controlled at
pleasure by Ben. Butler an 1 the carpet-bag-
gers. It is gona forever, and may its like
never bo seen again. Nearly all the worst
characters of it, including Butler, have been
defeated by tho people, and retiro to a de
served obscurity, where at least compara
tively they will be powerless for mischief.
J no (Jivil-rigtits-negro-equality but was
tho worst measure passed, shorn of its most
offensive features. A worse and far more
dangerous measure, tho Forco bill, was de
feated by non-action in the Senate. It had
passed tho House by a majority that was
mall in view of tho fact that tho Iladicals
had a two-thirds majority, and was urged
through two reading-, in the Senate. But iu
upportcrs in tho latter liody shrunk from
any attempt even to bring it up for final
passage. It therefore lies dead!
The bill to admit Colorado as a State
passid tho Hou-!e by the aid of half a dozen
Democratic votes, after having passed tho
Senate, was signed by tho President and is
therefore a law. The New Mexico bill was
defeated in the House for want of a two-
thirds vote.
Tho appropriation bills nine in number,
wo believe wero all passed. They are all
high in figures and extravagant.
Tho bill making tho third or fourth at
tempt to equalize bounties failed for want of
agreement between the two Houses. It
would havo taken a hundred millions from
the Treasury.
Tho Toxin Pacific railroad subsidy bill
failed by a small majority. It is only
scotched, not killed. Heretofore the most
reliable and formidable opposition to etich
grants caaio from the Southern Democratic
members. In this instance many of them
support the measure, alleging that the
Northern roads have been similarly aided
and thin this grant will only be giving them
a shire of plunder back.
This Congress, therefore, deserves com
mendation for having refused to pasi two
vicious measures among tho largo number
proposed, aud that is all tho praise it is en
titled to.
Ilxtra Session of tho Se'uate.
Pursuant to tho proclamation of tho Pres
ident, tho Federal Senate convened in extra
session the next day afier tho adjournment
of Congress. All tho now Senators appear
ed and were sworn, except one from Oali for
ma and ono from Nevada. Five of those
admitted had been Confederates and took the
modified oath. Tho Senate has no power to
pass laws at this extra session, and its duties
will bo mainly to act on nominations aud
upon treaties.
ivmong uio nrst, uusiness proposed was a
resolution to admit that everlasting darkey,
Pinehback, to a seat. Immediate action was
postponed.
When ex-President Johnson advanced to
the clerk's desk to be sworn, and again when
he returned to his seat, there was eiithusias
tic cheering in tho galleries. During a short
recess a sort of voluntary ovation was ten'
dered him on the floor. Kvcn Vice Presi
dent Wilson, who had been a leader in the
impeachment business, advancod and obse
quiously grasped him by the hand. Tho ex
President seemed rather gratified at this
humbling of his enemies, yet took littlo no-
tico of them personally. Tho citizens of
Washington greeted him with cheers at all
points and with music where opportunity of
fered. Ho is evidently just now tho lion of
Washington, much to tho discomfiture and
mortification of Geu. Grant and the extreme
Kadicals.

Some of our oxclmnuej comnlnln becnusn

bills this session, whilo others, wo think with
good reason, congratulate tho pcoplo of tho
i ommouweaiiii upon sucu Dcing mo case,
Tho new Constitution was Intended to check
the great evil ol unwise and hasty legislation,
audits netioii has been most beneficial in
this respect. 1 i,e fewer bills are passed tho
better, so long at timso which becomo laws
are carefully cons.di'red and made to sub
scivo tho best interests of tho people. I! tail-
iriy tnunic,
The above la from the KnglUh organ of
the stern nnd Invincible Democracy of Berks.
Hrcess of Legislation is ono of tho material
evils from which tho pcoplo of this country
hnvo long been suffering, nnd It is a linppy
result if tko new Constitution tias succeeded
In checking It. We think, however, thnt
our Democratic Douse of Representatives is
deserving of much of tho present credit.
Aside from tho neccss try appropriations, nnd
the adjustment of a few general subjects, tho
investigation of tho condition of the Treas
ury and tho frauds thnt have been perpetrat
ed upon it, the repeal of tho unnecessrry tax
upon coal, and here and thero tho repeal of
a local law, thero is little necessity for legis
lation. Heretofore the shelves of our law
yers havo had the annual addition of a large
volume of nets of Assembly which almost
every ouo of them would pronounco a nui
sance, and of thn contents of which people
would have littlo knowledge until brought
in contact with some of their provisions; ob
scure, arbitrary and otherwise objectionable.
A citizen could scarcely remove from town
ship to township, much less from county to
county, without encountering u new set of
laws for. ills government, and it was impossi
ble for any except lawyers to acquire famil
iarity with all their .provisions and especial
ly tho obligations they imposed. In fact,
even the lawyers, when asked some questions
regarding every day events, were compelled
to consult a half a dozen huge volumes of
act of Assembly to seo what legislative in
terference there had been with common
sense, before they could safely answer a cli
ent as to his duties and responsibilities.
The abatement of that nuisance is a public
benefaction.
Hut very few laws aro needed. Somo of
the old ones might bo profitably re-consider
cd, condensed, their expressions cleared from
ambiguity, and a heavy assortment entirely
repealed because neless, as well as some
that aro mischievous and others that can
not be enforced bjcausa public opinion will
not sustain them. But that perhaps would
more properly bo work for a legal commis
sion in the first instance.
What tho present Legislature is to be
complimented for especially tho Democrat
ic House is for not passing many laws, for
the invaluable cxamplo of passing but few
and they mostly necessary ones. Wo hope
to see the time when a dozen Legislatures,
meeting but onco in two years, wift pa-s only
a dozen laws, outside of tho routine business.
Tiicn people will have a chanco to know
what tho law is and govern themselves ac
cordingly. Although such notion would
probably greatly diminish legal business we
think good lawyers would all approve it. If
:iets of n-'sembly, like wheat, wero worth a
dollar a bushel, there would be some use in
producing them, but as most of them are of
littlo if any value, and tho great bulk auc
positively injurious, it is bettor to dispense
with them.
T!i o Troth.
Tiio ChiimomsecUth of Philadelphia speaks
out in relation to some of the delegates to tho
next Democratic Stato Convention, and ap
peals to the rest of the State to save tho rep
utation of the party, by expelling them. It
says :
It was the hope of tho pcoplo that tho De
mocracy would exert tho inherent power in
its organization to confer tho important pub
lic trusts of city government on able, fearless,
capable, honest men. The wish has been the
f ither to tho thought, for a largo majority of
the nominees ot the Democratic party for
city office! aro entirely unworthy of the po
sitions neoorded them.
As to tho delegates from this city to the
next Stato Convention, thero aro simc whose
names appear on the list of "honored repre
sentatives" who, we assert, will never be ad
mitted into a Democratic Convention if tho
delegates from the party in the State, outside
of Philadelphia, aro unwilling to admit
is equals in Democratic principles and prac
tices, tho "politician" who votes against his
party, or tho trickster whose allegiance to
cash is his highest attribute in political mor
als, or tho condemned "rounder" who, for
"thirty drinks" debauches delegates, or the
"ringsters" who prepare in advance "oertifi
oitos of election" which never represented
tho actions of conventions. Such has been
tho demoralization produced by the Radical
party in this city that it is now epidemic in
political circles and contagious among fifth
rate politicians.
White Washing of Cameron,
In 18(52 tho lower Houso of Congress
passseu a resolution condemning Uen. (Jam-
eron, then Secretary at War, for making a
series of extravagant contracts, for the spe
cial benefit of a peculiar class of people, a
coterie or tolitical family, specially known
as his "friends." It was understood at tho
timo that this action nnd Cameron's removal
from offioo wero rendered necessary to enable
tho Government to obtain loans in New
York.
In tho expiring days of the lato Congress,
tho resolution of censure was rescinded, and
tho allegation was freely mado by tho Re
publican loaders that President Lincoln had
"assumed tho responsibility of tho acts for
which Cameron was condemned." Why,
then, was not tho rescinding resolution
adopted at the time? Tho fact is, there is
no truth in the assertin. To break his fall,
it was claimed by Cameron's friends that he
was censured for tho enlistment of negro
troops, and that was tho aet assumed by
Lincoln that is, ho said It was not Camer
on's nt all, but bis own. Certainly ho never
endorsed Cameron's contracts, and no sucli
document can bo shown. It was for making
them that tho resolution of censure was
passed
As to this latter day white. washing, with
out a voto of yeas and nays being called, it
is only in other words saying: "You havo
ono foot in tho gravo wo aro willing to let
you go in an unblntted shroud." It is a
pieoo of clioap bonovoleiico an emblematic
xinn oi sugar-pium to stop whining, or

New Counties.
A new county bill is pending before the
Legislature, with a probability of its final
passage, for the erection of new counties tin
der the limitations of the new Constitution,
which provide that the new fledglings inn
contain 400 square miles and tho lines daroj
not run within ten miles of a present county
seat. The now county must also contain
20.000 inhabitants and must not leave the
counties from which it is taken with Ions than
the number of square miles and population
required for the new. So much is settled bv
the Constitution.
The Legislature now proposes a plan by
which new counties may bo formed. Tho
details are of no present importance The
ono provision of interest is that, after com
plying with the Constitution and Legislative
conditions, the project is to be left to thedc
cision of the pcoplo within the proposed new
county, and the rest of the people of tho
counties proposed to be divided will have no
voice in the matter. The bill as it now
stambi is in the interest of those who want
new counties. In discussing the bill the Lu
zerne Union savs :
Under this bill, old Luzerne will bo carv
ed up effectually. The old part of the coun
ty will have no vote or voice in the matter,
and the receding sections will readily depart
under the hope of being benefitted by the
new county seats and the many new offices.
".Lackawanna county would bo tlio lirst
in order with the seat at Seranton ; "Pardee"
county would be the second in order with
the i-eat at Uazlcton ; "Moosic" county
would be. third on the prngrnniino with the
seat atCarbondsle ; and "llollenbaek" coun
ty would fall into line, with Shickshinnv or
Berwick for the county seat.
Besides tho proposition to take off a slice
from tho upper end of this county, with a
view to making Berwick a county scat, thero
is also a Schuylkill project, to make Ashland
a county seat, cutting Ceutralia and Conyng-
liam from this county. Whether Berwick is
more than ten miles from tho extreme limits
of tho Town of Bloomsburg, in a straight
hue, may boa matter of some doubt. Scott
township might bo added as additional
wards and thnt would settlo the matter.
The physicians in tho Legislature have n
hill before that ho ly designed to "regulate"
the sale of patent medicines that is, in
plainer terms, to destroy the Mile. While
molt legislation may lie mado annoying to
dealers, it will be ineffective for good. Thnt
the sale of those medicines do uiatei ial harm
is by no means established, and that many
pooplo at least think they aro benefitted by
them is quite certain. Whilo this is the
case they will bo used, and of courso sold
and bought, in spite of legislative enact
ments. This matter of dictating to people
by legislative enactment what they may or
may not uil has been sufficiently tested to
satisfy every body that it is wholly impossi
ble and only amounts to a public annoyance,
ill-will, litigation and fruitless expense. If
people want to take medicines let them do
so, without thru-ting an act of Assembly
under their noses to increase tho nausea, or
popularizing what is at worst a compara
tively harmless folly by gravely interposing
the Stato as an objector to its indulgence.
We observo that tho druggists exchange
of Philadelphia has unanimously protested
against tho passage of the bill, ns simply an
impediment to trade.
If fanciful legislators nro suffered to have
their way people will in time have to consult
tho nets of Assembly before they get up in
tho morning to see at what hour it is legal
to put on breeches.
Speaker of the Next House.
Wo nro assured from various souices that
Hon Samuel J. Randall, or this State, is
the most promising candidate that lias yet
been named for Speaker of tho next House.
Thoroughly honest and capable, with long
experience as a Representative, no man in
the ensuing Congress would fill the Speak
er's chair with mora ability and honor than
Mr. Randall, But for tho'singlo mistake of
voting for tho extra pay, Mr. Randall's
career in Congress has been unexceptiona
ble. Erie Observer,
It ts scarcely in harmony with propriety
to condemn a man forever for a single wrong
net of error of judgment, and when the ob
jection to which tho OWiw alludes is
removed, Mr, Randall loims up as an un
exceptionable candidato for Speaker of tho
next Houso of Oongroii, His qu ilifieations,
never doubted, wore fully proved and illus
trated by tho great struggles of tho lato Con
gress, wherein, ns tho parliamentary leader
of tho Democrat), ho completely noii-pbused
and defeated tho two-thirds Itadieal major
ity, until ho compelled them to resort to tho
despcrato rcmody of altering tho rules to
suit tho exact caso. That alteration now

and to benefit that Democracy Mr, Randall
so (.dlantly lo-l, for whoso injury it yas in

didates of tho Democratic nnd tb'p'.iblioan
parties. Tills year these mostly voted for the
Republican candidates for Governor and As-

former and a majurity of tho latter.
In the first Congressional district tho Dem

As often stated in these columns hereto
fore, we h ivo much less hope of the yankee
States than of those of tho middle, west and
south. Yankees of tho puritan breed have a
kind of fondness for dictation nnd hard mas
ters. There is a vast amount of truth in th'fc
pithy summary which tho St. Louis Kepub-
lican makes of General Grant's six years of
presidential service: "Ho has established
precedents which will vex us ns long ns the
nation lives, and he h:ts set an example
which embraces all those blunders and crimes
which the ruler of a fice country should
avoid. Hn wrought more damage to tho re
publican n stein in these six vcars than his
successors can repair in the next fitty, and
by lii3 pi'i viple.s and actions has done more
to (b-moia Republic sentiment nnd weaken
public co'ifidenco 111 the stability of free in
stitutions than all tho trials and tyrannies
of ciyil war. And with these credentials lie
tins tlic m ignitieent lmpiulcaeu to aspire .1
third term, and there aro f'o.'Lt and knaves
wliw are willing to encourage and assist him
in it!"

un jiouuay 1:1st a joint resolution was
offered in the House nt Harrisburg lookiii:
to tne removal m me stato uapitol to some
other point Philadelphia being intended
It failed In yeas 02, nays 102 Messrs Mc

no lnw to compel any body to go to the

Wlule a vindictive majority in Uongress
menaces the country with eternal conflicts
through force bills and other measures of
partisan oppression, the alarmed capitalist
buttons up his pocket book and refuses to
mako investments. Yet people are still
wondering why business continues depress
ed, trade languishes and prosperity refuses to
return. Confidence is a plant which does
not flourish under such treatment. J'afriot.
Tho SuprenVe Court Judges of Pen nay 1
vnma want tho Legislature to pa-s a law
that no case can bo carried up to the Su
prcme Court in which the claim is less than
SoOO 00 This would simply be nn outrage
If these Judges do not like to bo kept busy
let them resign. In this Republican govern
nient we want no pensioned aristocracy or
no more laws cutting out poor claimants

The Legislnture of North Carolina expell
ed a member, named J. W. Tliorne, because
of his non-belief in tho existence of God.
It appears that Tliorne is a enrpek-bagger
from Chester county, in this State, and out
raged thu religious sentiments of the people
of the obi North State by printing and cir
culating a ,.amphlet in which ho treated nt
length the question of the existence and
non-cxistein:e of 11 Supreme Being. It is
not probable that all carpet-baggers at the
Snith ngce with Tliorne; but they certainly
net as though they did.
