Kxchnnge.
We havo seen the forgoing and similar
statistics in various publications, but who
took the census or upon what authority tho
statement is based docs not appear. We
specially repel tho idea, so far as people
hereabouts are concerned, that dogs are held
in higher consideration than preachers. We
do not doubt tho cost of the former is mon
strously over-stated, while tho contributions
to the latter are as far short of tho reality
We do not doubt our community is a fair
sample of tho others, and while thero are
many lovers of dogs amongst them, they are
not yet by any means negligent of or illib
eral to preachers. Dogs beget generosity
and true and faithful friendships by thoir
example, and it is difficult to withhold in
voluntary respect for the man who loves,
trains and caresses them. Their relative im
portance to preachers, however, is scarcely
a subject for comparison, but men governed
by tho generous impulses that lead to fond
ness for pets will seldom, if ever, neglect or
ignore the higher and nobler purposes o
life, and if they do not they will not neglee
or ho parsimonious to tho preachers. We
are not, therefore, prepared to regard the as
sertion of tho extract as containing a grain
oven of truth.
A. fabulous sum is also put down "for
iquors." If the author of the statistics
means to convey tho impression that such a
sum is annually spent for liquors used as a
beverage, he is simply a fool or desires to be
an importer. "This country" is a big insti
tution and has a big throat, but has not belly
enough for all that load. Wo suspect the es
timate for tobacco consumed is equally ab
surd. But for does, and tobacco, and whis
ky, we have no special plea to mako just
now people will indulgo in each or all of
them to suit the special fancy of each indi
vidual but we protest that the bare recapit
ulation is a slander upon the preachers and
a far greater one upon the communities "in
this country" and tho sovereign people there
of. We decidedly Incline to tho opinion
that as a rulo trie clergy are liberally sup
ported.
A Repeutuut Aspirant!
An otd, retired, and no doubt childish ed
itor, who in in his palmiest days was more
distinguished for the enormity of his romau
ces than for any other quality (Mr. Ben
Bannon, of Pottavillo) is out in a publi
communication in favor of Win. D. Kelloy
for President I ile carefully adds a uoto to
his rigmarole to the effect that his articl
was not instigated by Kelly, but why he
deemed such a denial noct'&.kiry is not ex
plained.
While nobody not childish or insane would
think of Kelly for President, that personage
no doubt flatters himself with the Ideao
being a candidate for the distinguishek post
tion, upon the old familiar principle that
"fools rush in where angels icar to tread.1
To this end, however, he has recently been
traveling south and comes homo with the dec
hiration that all is peace and quiet there,
that all tho tales of blood, danger and vio
ieneo are false, that no troops aro needed
and that he is heartily ashamed of bavin
voted for tho foico bill. Wo suppose it
safo to believo what is otherwise known to be
true, although Kelly is never to ho beliovei
under different circumstances. The admin
titration organ at Washington abases him
roundly for not lying us usual.
Tho President and bis Cabinet.
Tho Cabinet is ouco moro reconstructed.
Delano will remain in until people will quit
clamoring for his removal. Judge Kdwards
Picrrepout, of New York, takes the Attorney
Generalship. The city paper say he is a
inau of ability and good character, but his
chief distinction la that he contributed 520,
000 toward tho purchase of a (fift house for
tho President, He was opposed to thecouise
of tho administration In the Louisiaua busi
ness and his apiointaieutiudi(utcs a change
in that programme.
Not oneof Grant's original cabinet now re
mains. 0ir!ously enough, tho first was driven
out ((tea. Cox, of Ohio) because too honest
to permit his clerks to be taxes) for corrupt
purposvM, bat lattcraly nearly all havo been
compelled to resign because of personal dis
honesty, and Delano will yet have to go on
that ground. After that, tho personal Integ
rity of tho Cabinet will bo above reproach.
When umaii abuses his wife Iu Berks

THE COLUMBIAN AND
Capital, Labor anil Enterprise.
Last winter Mr. Peter Ilcnllc, of Williams-
port, built twenty-flvo or thirty houses In
that city for the ostensible purposo of giv
ing employment to mechanics and others out
f work. Ho also proposed to furnish tho
ground and build houses for anybody upon
tho payment of twenty per cent, of tho cost
in cash, giving Ions credits on tho balance
Ho is now out with a card in which ho
ays :
Tho conflict between capital and labor
s paralvzlne tho industries of tho country.
Continual strikes Indieato tho bitterness of
tho contest. Capital has it in its power to reg-
Into this stato of affairs and start business
anew. Workinemen should bo nolo to live
early as cheaply now as they could before
tho w'ar, and it Is tho duty of capital to sup
ply them with the necessaries nt mo at low
rates. For ono. I am determined to do this,
and nm now stocking stores witli goods,
bought at wholcsalo for cash, from which to
upply workingmen at the lowest possimo
prices. I shall also hoard mv laboring men
at $3 per week If tiioso who control capi
tal will tako lioldofthls matter, and do their
lutv. there will bo no difficulty in starting
business anew with health nnd vigor. My
store will bo open on tho 1st of May next "
Wo have never been a special admirer of
Mr. Herdic, nor havo wo expended any
friendship upon htm or had business trans
actions with htm; nor havo wo tho least idea
that these, enterprises of his, noted above,
will in any degree diminish his receipts or
lighten his pockets ; but wo do not hesitate
to hold up liis cxauple to capitalists ns
worthy of all admiration, and to point to his
enterprise as the efficient means of building
up nnd improving a town and of benefiting
every body. That Mr. Herdic makes money
out of his projects is to liis credit nnd is only
an additional inducement to capitalists to do
as he is doing. Ono such man is wortli more
to tho enterprise and prosperity of a healthy
town than wholo regiments of drones who
nvestand finally loss their means in stocks
and government and corporation bonds. We
have witnessed the effects of Mr. Hcrdic's
enterprise nnd know whereof wo speak. Of
courso our words apply to tho subjects tho y
refer to and not to other matters.
Wo know of no place offering so grand a
a field for similar enterprise and vast specu
lation as Hloomsburg Hero tho opportuni
ties lie open, tempting tho embrace of en
terprise, and offering profitable, honorable
and safe speculation in showery abundance.
The intelligent application of energy nnd
capital is all that is required to- dovelope
the richest gains.
Corporations Shaking !
The war of tho Baltimore and Ohio on the
Pennsylvania railroad is beginning to tell
with tremendous effect. It is carried on by
means of reduced freights, and is prosecuted
with tho utmost vigor. During tho past
week the stock of the latter was sensibly af
fected, and when, on Saturday, the Directors
were compelled to declare a four per cent,
semi-onnunl dividend, instead oi live per
cent, as formerly, the shares fell from 55 to
51, nud it was only by the utmost effort that
a further decline was prevented. This is but
tho first shock of battle. The times portend
that all great and complicated corporations
must go down and tho circumstance to which
wo refer is but a premonitory symptom. The
Philadelphia papers of course make every ef
fort to smooth tho matter over and hide the
extent of the disaster, but in the mean time
the battle of the giants goes on, and tho end
must be tho serious crippling if not utter de
struetion of tho corporations concerned, as
well as others. The cry will bo raised that
the business of tho country will suffer from
these circumstances, but it will not. If any
thing it will be benefitted, especially if it
have the effect to make investors take their
money out of stocks.
Desperadoes in Luzerne.
On the 29th ult., Constable Michael Casey
went to Flymouth township, near Wilkes
Barre, to levy on the goods of James Con
neli. He was resisted, and returned to
Wilkes-Barro for assistance. Policeman
Itcibscniier went back toConnell's with him
tvlieu they found the whole Council family
ten or twelve in number, gathered together
in one house, the doors and windows being
barricaded. When tho officers approached
the house they wero fired at, and both
wounded, Itcibscnner fatally. Casey may
recover, though fourteen buckshots aro in
his body. As soon as tho news reached
Wilkcs-Barre, Sheriff Kikcndall with a posse
of about ono hundred men, went tp the house
of the Connells, and after breaking in the
door, succeeded in capturing old Conell and
tlirco of his sons, Edward, Lawrence and
Thomas. The Sheriff and his men were
fired at several time?, but escaped injury,
All the Connells including the old man, who
is between sixty and seventy years of age
fought desperately. More than a dozen
muskets and rifles, most of them loaded
were found in their house. Lawrenco and
Edward, who fired at Itcibscnner, have been
lodged in the Wilkes-Barro jail to await th
result of liis injuries. The rest have been
held in default of $5000 each.
A Word in Season.
The indications aro unmistakable, that in
the next political campaign the moral an
mental qualifications of candidates aro to b
tho test rather than blind adherence to any
party or creed. A long-suffering people re
quire honesty and capacity in those they in
trust with power, as tho surest tafeguan!
against corruption ; and tho party that mis
calculates or ignores this popular sentiment
will come up missing at the polls in Novem
ber. The success which lias so far fallen to
the Democratic party, within the last year,
is partly owing to a wide-spread disgust for
Badical men and measures, and partly to tho
wisdom shown by the Democracy everywhere
in nominating men of good character for of
ficial station. Those two elements combined
created the tidal wave that Bwcpt over half
dozen Stateslast fall, carryingsurprisc to one
and consternation to the other.
In its present situation tho Democratic
party has a serious mission. It is tho nu
cleus around which will rally all those lion
est elements of opposition toGrantism,as the
only hope of saving the country from abuse
by a reckle-is horde of public robbers. Ours
is the only strong political organization ar
rayed against tho party in power. If w
would command further success wo must
prove to tho masses of tho people that wo
descrvo it. We must piano in nomination
for every office, from tho highest to tho low
eat, men of well-known capacity and integ
rity. Our candidates should not only bo
proper men, but they should bo known to
tho pcoplo m such. One-liorsn politicians
who want to bo governors, nnd ignoramuses
who lift their eyes to stations for which they
are not fit, must bo made to stand aside for
hotter men. This is not the time for expert
mcnt-s upon the supposed credulity or stu
pidity of tho aveiago voter, There is not
tho shadow of a hope that tho Democrat!
paity can succeed next fall unless it puts
its best men on tho ticket, and we may ns well
look that fact hquarely In tho face, With
ticket composed of proper men, success
certain, With a ticket composed of mon of
"lirst rato incapacity and ioiirihraio aoiu.
ty," defeat Is sure to follow. And, what is
worst of all, defeat under such circumstances
would be u proper rebuke fur Insulting not

The Harrisburg Patriot discusses tho sub-
ect more intelligently. It says :
Some idle fellow with lots ol timo hntior-
ng on his hands has made a calculation of
tho cost ol the speeches of all tho members
of tho legislature in the last session. This
is done by ascertaining the cost of a page ol
the nji'ktive JournaiawX multiplying it by
uie amount, oi pages consumed by each
member. The statistics tints prepared arc
not Important, except as showing that iu
many instances tho members who talked tho
most perlormed tho least service. It was
frenueiitlv charged dnrim thn Insf Rplnn
that the itepublican members of the House
who assumed tho leadership of the minority
deliberately wasted the public time with
frivolous speeches in order to throw the re
sponsibility on the Democratic inniority.
1'rool ol the justice ol tho charge is con
tained in this table. The leader ot the Ite
publican minority of the Housi and tho chief
obstructionist ol tho public business was
Mr Mitchell of Tioga. The speeches of
this nicmuer cover thirty-six pages oi tho
Journal and cost $213.12 Next comes Mr,
Wolfe of Union who constantly interrupted
the business of the session and wlwuespeech-
cs cover twenty-eight pages of the Journal
at a cost oij;j'ju.u. Tho third in tho list is
Mr. Christy of Alleelicnv who was constant
ly on liis legs and consumed twenty-seven
pases of the Journal. Not a Democratic
member of the House who was iu cliaigo of
important measures of legislation, which lie
was obliged frequently to explain and de
fend, consumed nearlyas much of tho public
timo as any ono of these three leaders of the
opposition. Tho Democrats would not have
tolerated in ono of their own number what
they submitted to from these petty orators
of the minority who babbled away from day
to day with the deliberate purpose ol bring
inir the House into odium and contempt and
of delaying or defeating tho business of the
session. They probably did not dream that
one of their own party' friends to kill time
would measure their drivel by tho paee and
snow now mucu it cost the state.
The civil rights bill finds no favor witli fed
eral judges who find themselves called upon to
piaeo a construction upon it. The Baltimore
.Vimsays : In an address to tho grand jury of
tho United States court for the eastern dis
trict of North Carolina, at Elizabeth, last
week, Judge Brooks charged the jury that
the criminal features of tho civil rights law,
in which they as a grand jury alone were in
terested, were unconstitutional. During the
same week Judge Dick charged the grand
jury of the western district of North Caro
lina, at Statesville, in which ho declared
that "a citizen of tho United States, under
the broad constitution of this country, can
go to any portion of it and cxcrcino all the
immunities which by his freedom he possess
es, but no law, human or divine, can compel
a hotch-potch of citizens; nil that is necessa
ry aro suitable comforts, and every innkeep
er lias a right to exercise his privilege as to
where lie shall place his guests, convenience
and comfort being all that is required, and
no law shall say all men shall be equal so
cially." Tho refusal of the Kidderminster carpet
makers in England to send any of theirgoods
to tho centennial next year, and tho speech
of Mr Bright at tho reception given to M.
Chevalier, in which ho says it is ludicrous
for us to invito foreign manufacturers to
compete at an exhibition when our protect
ive tariff prevents tlicni from competing in
our markets, aro both spleeny exhibitions
unworthy of merchants or statesmen. Not
withstanding our protective tariff which lev
ies an average duty of 55 per cent, upon for

tho duty. As long as our people aro willing
to pay twico as much as they need to do to
carpet their houses, we cannot see that it is

or Mr. Bright's, They may pity our stupid

TlioNew York Lveniny Pot calls attention
to a striking illustration of the mutations iu
political sentiment which a few years of Re
publican impolicy havo wrought, iu tho
factthat ex-Governor Curtin, who was the
"war governor" of tills State, was enthusias
tically welcomed by an immense Itepublican
meeting at Muuic Hall, New Haven, a few
years since, and was only prevented by sick
ness from closing tho Democratic canvas
witli a speech at tho samo placo on Saturday
evening previous to tho lato election. Tho
ex-Governor had got as far as New York on
his way to Connecticut when lie had a severe
attack of neuralgia, and was thin prevented
from joining with other Liberals in ex
pressing to tho pcoplo of Connecticut the
universal sentiment of tho nation, outside
tho postofiices and custom houses, that tho
war was over ten years since. But ho will

thero has been appropriated by Congress and

AlTROVBU The 18th day of March, A.

Clerical lllasplicmy.
Henry Ward Beccher concluded a recent
sermon in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, N.
Y., in the following words of flagrant blas
phemy !
'When I come up before tho Eternal
Judge nnd say, nil aglow, "My Lord nnd
my God," will He turn to me and say, "Go
down ; you have never been immersed ; go
down ?" Will ho turn to 1110 and say, "You
did not come up tho rielit road: you don't
coino up from the true church ; go down 1"
I to the face of Jehovah will stand and say,
"God! I won't go to hell! I will go to Heav
en. I love Thee Now damn mo if Thou
canst. I love Thee." And God shall say,
and the heaven flame with double and trip
pie rainbows, and echo with joy, "Dost thou
love mo? Enter in and bo forever blessed "
Let us pray.
And is it so, that the "Eternal Judge" is
bound to take tho mere word of Mr. Becch
er, when ho defiantly says, "I won't go to
belli I will go to heaven. I love Thee.
Now damn 1110 if thou canst. I love Thee?
Such sacriligoiis language ns this, might com
port witli utter want of faith in God, but it
is anything rather than evidence of lovo for
Him. Tho Scripture rulo is : "If you lovo
mo keep my commandments." "This is the
lovo of God, that you keep his command
ments." The Biblo furnishes no other test
of lovo than this. Christian Mcmmjer.
Witli the induction into office of Messrs.
Templo and M'Caiidlcss the Democratic par
ty is placed fairly iu possession of the fruits
of its November victory. Tho action of tho
lieutenant governor, and the acts of the
Democratic majority iu the House, havo
been curbed and restrained by political op
position, and cannot be judged of separately.
The management of tho Auditor General's
office ami that of the Secretary of Internal
affairs stands upon a footing of independence
winch carries along with it completo respon
sibility. Tho party throughout tho Stato
will insist upon an official fidelity corres
ponding to its high hopes and just expecta
tions. Iu the meantime wo bespeak for the
new officers such consideration as their high
character deserves. Patriot.
The Hon, William M. Evarts' remark that
ho did not think there wero "100 men iu this
country who realize how near wo aro to a
completo change in the form of our govern
ment," seems to meet tho approval of tho
St. Louis Hepublican, for it says: "The a
proaching Presidential campaign will not
merely decide whether this or that man shall
occupy tho Executive chair, whether this or
that parly shall hold the reins of power, but
whethor tho government as our fathers mado
it shall stand or fall. This is tho issuo and
the only issue, and unless tho American peo
ple recognize it and act accordingly they de
serve to share the fate which lias overtaken
all other republics and now threatens our
own.
It is not generally known that the Stato
narrowly escaped a bituminous as well asnn
nntlirncito war. There is as much military
ardor in tho breast of tho general of division
who directs the movements of the stato ma
litia iu tho west as iu him of thof ast. More
over lie has his awn mines to protect, Ho
called for nid somo timo slnco to repel an
anticipated raid of Ohio miners, and muni
tions of war was sent forward, Doubtless
troops would havo followed thocatridges, but
the aggressivo miners, for reasons best known
lo themselves, have not taken advantago of
tho opportunity afforded to oiler their bodies
as targets for rillo practice, Jlarruburg i'a
Mot, During tho quarter ending March 31 there
arrived at New York 12,100 immigrants, of

President Grant has pardoned Hodge, the
Assistant Paymaster who stolo four hundred
thousand dollars of tho people's money for
which lie was tried, convicted and sentenced
to tho penitentiary for ten years.
Grant is unloading. Attorney General
Williams has sent in liis resignation. This
is tho first evidence that tho administration
is begining to wince under tho repeated man
llestations ofttho public displeasure.
The Bads have got tho Stato Treasury down
to tho last dollar (s!l.70) and if they keep

The Illinois Legislature lias repealed the

a lack of votes had something to do witli it

their largest vote in the past while tho Bad
lost uuu votes, as compared with their largest

Baltimore's new City Hall covers an en

Its cost was $2,500,000 and we believe it was

Under Attorney General Williams, justice
like any other commodity, is bought nnd

The impeachment of ono rascal in publ

if the clouds would blow over after awhil
and tho whole country be at peace once

the Baltimore American lias taken some
pains to ascertain the views of leading mer
chants and dealers as to the prospects for tho

that the outlook is hopeful. Business men
