When fjr any reason a newspaper lies dead in
any post office, it is tho duty of the po-tmaster
to notify tho publishers by letter stating the
reason, if he knows why the paper is not taken
out. Iteturning the paper to the publishers is
prohibiten! and does not answer any require

the law in this respect ought to be, and perhaps
may be, reported to tho proper department.

The 7, nuWiYim of yesterday wails over tho un-
ijenlhiitanli) and ci7ruiti Icons manner in which the
Coi.i muia.v treats its editors in theso columns,
and talks aboufperhonal journalism,"! imP'rccV
ing in the filth of peisonal nbuse," and all that.
The object of this kind of stud' wo cannot under
stand, as it is In no way applicable to us, wo
having carefully avoided eveiything like per
sonalitics in our rtfeie'iices to Unit journal. As
to "personal enmity" or a desire "to injure tho
editors of tho Jliimlilicait in their social or busi
ness relations," tho writer of tho articlo knows
very well that such an accusation against us is
without the slightest foundation. We challenge
them to quote a single article from the Col.VM
lilAN which shows anv such intention or desire,
The names of tho Hepiibllcan editors havo never
belli mcntiemid in our columns in a way that
could possibly be consltucd into personal nbuse
We havo mentioned them in connection with
tho peculiar poliiical tenets which thi-y promul
gate, for the purpose of showing tho weakness
of their position, and not with a view to injure
them personally. o hare not tho slightest ol
jeetion to their using, our mimes in the same
manner tint wo have used theirs.
Wo havo alluded to one of tho editors of the
7MiV(i)i, who holds an oflico under tho United
States, and is therefore n public man ami bin;
hit to ciitici-min his official capacity. Last
week we told how much salary ho receives, ami
peihaps this is what the Jltyubliam terms "per'
sonal abuse." When editors endorse such incen
diarv speeches as that mado by Illalno in Con-
gress a short time ngo, ought iney to unci i.iuu
with stie.li paragraphs as the lollowing:
lllalne, lirown it Heekley, it idijeimi homo,
want another war, so that they can Illustrate
their valor by staying at homo and abusing
thoso who go.
With theso exceptions, which nro in no wiso
personal, wo havo seldom if ever used their
names, and yet they would givo out tho impres
sion to their readers that the CoHJiililANBpends
most of Its timo in writing about them.
Tho illustration of such personal abuse as
they say they might heap upon us Is not i;ro-
iws. first, becauso It woum no uiise.anuseconuiy,
because tho object apparent on the faeo of It
would be to injure us in our business relations
as nrivalo elltens, ami not as public officials,
As to the ''inexperltuetd," wo aro willing to
leave th0 verdict in the hands of the publlc.wlth

is of vital importance that our best men should

that Convention to meet, and July 4th as tho
time J but decidedly object to Col. Wright's
buncombe resolution about meeting In Inde
pendence Hall, even if it could bo obtained.
It is entirely inadequate to bold tho delegates,
and that fact was known to tho author of the
llesolution. A spacious, well ventilated Hall
is a necessity for such a meeting, eapccailly in

Vamjamxto Every IIomi:. Wo shall do
our readers a favor by calling their special at
tention to tho value, the usefulness, and wo may
say tho direct profit, of supplying themselves
the present year, with one of tho chcapat, as
well as the most valuablo Journals issued In
this country. It costs hardly half a cent a day,
a sum easily saved, while its practical hintsand
suggestions will bo most likely to bring buck
that nmonnt many times over. Tho ("00 to
000 beautiful, instructive I'ngravings, are alone
worth many times the cost of the paper. W'c
refer to the American AijrkuHurkl, so called
because started .15 years ago as a Itural Journal,
but now enlarged and improved to suit tlie wants
of every family in Country, Village, and City.
It is packed full of good tilings, useful, reliable,
and instructive. Each number contains -11
largo (double octavo), pages, beautifully print
ed. It has much for instructing and pleasing
Housekeepers and Children, and Farmers, Me
chanics, Merchants indeed all classes. Its
Ilou-e Plans and improvements, witli Engrav
ings and particulars as to co-t, and tho common-sense
directions, arc worth more than
many costly architectural works, Its constant,
presistent, fearless exposure of Humbugs and
swindling schemes, is of great value to the
whole country aud every individual. In
short, it is full of good things for everybody
and wc advie everybody to take it this year.
It will be specially valuable in this Centennial
year, its circulation, w Inch is a hundred iold
greater than the majority of other journals, en
ables the publishers to supply the American
ijriculturist at the very low rate of $1.00 a year,
post-paid, or four copies for $5.-l0. Tako our
advice and send for it to the publisher'', viz :

llAimisnuno, Feb. 1, 187C.
Tho work of tho Sctiato during the-past
week lias been somewhat notablo. Impor
tant measures havo been considered and tho
action of that body In rcgatel it somo of them
will doubtless awakeh harsh criticism in
various quarters. Tho most important meas
ure consldered,at least that ono in which tho
members of tho Legislature havo moro than
a passing interest, is tho financo bill. Your
readers will remember that this bill went to
tho Senate In a shapo assumed after tho
Houso had thoroughly digested It. Though
fears wore entertained that somo of tho pro
visions inserted in tho bill would not meet
with tho approval of the Senate,' tho radical
action taken by that body was scarcely
antlcipatcd.aftcr striking eut in preliminary
reading atl tho provisions of tho bill except
ing tho simple transfer of revenue from ono
fund to tho other, tho Scnato last night
capped tho climax by defeating tho entire
bill upon third reading, A chango of votes
however on tho part of Jlcssrs. Strang and
Nowmyer has placed them.in posltion'to movo
arcconsideratloniot tliotleleateel bill it at any
future timo they may sco fit to do so. Unless
such reconsideration is effected a means for
relieving tho embarrassed condition of tho
Treasury cannot bo devised this session, as
tho rules forbid tho introduction of tho sub
ject again dc novo. Although no money will
ho paid out by tho Stato Treasurer until this
matter la adjustod tho Houso received tho
news of tho Senate's action on tho bill with
seeming indifferences. Various aro tho
surmises as to what tho action of tho Houso
will be, should tho matter bo brought before
It again for Its consideration. Somo of tho
Democratic members it is thought will have
back-bono enough to stand up for tho origi
nal provisions of tho bill while others it is
deemed, cannot bo depended on with tho
samo degreo of certainty, Taken all in all,
tho result of the action of a conference com
mittee on this subject should such committeo
be appointed cannot bo foretold.
The supplement to tho conspiracy act do-
fining what action of workingmen and others
assembled for tho purposo of resisting em
ployers, shall como within tho meaning of
tho act of 1S72 has reached a final pa'sago
in the Scnato after "running the gauntlet"
of amendment. In the shapo in which it
passed, it provides that no action of com
bined workingmen toward others, shall be
coiisti ued to bo within tho meaning of the
phrase "in anyway hinder" unless ac
companied with menaces of threats of vio
lence. Although not exactly as desired by
them the bill in its present shapo is accepta
ble to the workingmen.
Tho bill reducing tho rate of boomage to
be charged by boom companies in general
and the Susquehanna boom company in pai
ticular upon its passage to second reading
to-day in the Senate elicited a lengthy and
very spirited discussion which may be but a
forerunner of others to come. A very strong
effort will bo made this session to secure the
proposed repeal.
A most salutary measure providing for the
erection of watering troughs on highways
throughout the Commonwealth, for the use

other will no doubt become a law.
After once defeating tho chronic bill for"
tho purcha'o of Purclon's Digest for tho
members, the lloiiso again to-day took up
its consideration aud consuming considerable
timo upon its discussion guvo it a final quie
tus for this session. Tho act increasing tho
pay of Arbitrators to two dollars per day
was treated in a similar manner, mirnliil
llrlit tho skunk scalp bill, of ancient renown
although all tho tactics within tho category

is concerned becomo a law and tliogcntlo-

A novel cas has lately been settled m
O.swcgo county. It appears that one farmer
sold forty turkeys to the other at a certain
prico per pound alive. It was tho under
standing that tho seller should keep tho tur
keys until tho buyer called for them the
next day,Jand in tho mean timo they were
not to bo fed. According to contract tho
latter called for tho turkeys, weighed, took
theni homo and dressed them, when twenty
two pounds of corn were taken from their
craws, it tins tno buyer uecamo angry
aud deducted the abovo number of pounds
from tho weight of tho turkeys, and refused
to pay more. Seller, in return, became an
gry and sued for thocorn. Thocasowas tried
and decided in favor of tho latter, cacli pay
