Under this caption tho UualleA liulUtm reads
us a lesson concerning our article last week in
regard to "I'riuling Tickets." The criticism is
right in Sl-elf but bad in its application. We
dM not claim that an cdilor should charge for
editorial labor, but alluded to the fact lhat as
candidate leeeivcd it ymluiloiuhj, they should
cheerfully pay it reasonable sum for fpriiiliug
and circulating their tickets.
The (i:f A HMdin adds;
"It is a mistaken idea that a newspaper imut
defend a candidate from assault, A paper run
upon the proper basis would not do so unless it
had sonio better reason than simply the five or
ten dollars which it might expect to leccivo
fiom tho candidate. There me few newspapers
so shameless as to acknowledge lhat such Is
tin Ir reason."
In answer to that wo repeat that "The-newspaper
not only announces tbo names of the can
.llelatu for a small sum, and gives publicity to
Ihu fatt that they seek oflice, but when unjustly
assailed ky political enemies, mut ilevote their
coliimr.slo n proper vindication, which isf.tr
more ellectual than personal ele-etlonteiing, lor
which no compensation is received " -
No ingenuity can toiture this language as
meaning, Ihu blind support of a candidate under
all circumstances; but It means a defence uguiust
unjut assaulH. Nowadays most patty journals
consider It Uielr duty lo attack their opiioneuts,
whither right or wrong, and defame an opposi
tion candidate, however utiles and puro his
.chra:tcr may Lb. fiuch i not our isolic-y.

Li:xr. The following, in reference to the
Lenten sea-on, will bu found interesting : "Tho
season id' Lent begai on Wcdnc-d.iy, the 1st in
stant. It is lelc'iouslv ob-trved bv the uoiii.ni
C.ilholic and Fpi-e-opal Cliurehes, eeltain days
with the former being s.t apart on which only
meits can bo p.ulakeii of, while in the lalle'r de
iioniinaliou more or ic-s of abstinence is al.su
inietiee'd. One object of the obseivance is the
we-auing of tlie mind from fiivoloiis amiiseiueiits,
vain di-plays of all kind", in subduing the ap
petite, ami in every way to live a mole spiritual
life, and at the same lime to be not stint in giv
ing alms lo the poor and needy. The festive
sea-on of the present winter may now lie con
sidered as over, as strict member ol certain de
nominations of cliurehes abstain from partaking
of amusements during Lent. In largo cities it
is customary to hold high carnival on the day
and night before the first day of Lent. The
most solemn day of the season is Oood Friday,
which is observed in commemoration of the suf
feiings ol ihclicdccmcr. Faster day closes the for
ty days of prayer and fasting. Tlie fast of Lent is
one of the oldest observances of the Catholic
Church, as it dates back to the very earliest days
of Christianity. Tlie Latin and (ireek names of
the fast signify 'forty days.' Tho Knglih word
fastmcans 'Spring fast.' Lenleii tide in tho Sax
on language signifies 'The spring season.' In tlie
second century tho eli-puto icgarding the time
for the celebration of Faster or,iu other woids,
tho elo'o of the solemn jcailyfist occurred,
and then it was agieed on all sides lli.it the sol
emn anti-l'a-ehal fast eif Lent should be kept.
There is some doubt as to whether it was at first
distinctly understood lhat tbe.ist should last
forty days, lait at Iat the council of Ami-
ocb, in the fourth century, it was confirmed
lhat it was by precept necessary to fast
for forty days, u-lng only dry meat. It was
required that nothing should bo eaten at Ihe
meal after sunset but bread, salt and water. The
season is not now ob-erved so strictly as former
ly, but tlie rules and legulations 'me genrally
complied with under the modern modification'.

I think under the New Constitution, and, the

sav differently. I have been Informed that cer

as follows.-. " And it shall be the duty
of such (poor; directors aniuiall-, in tlie month
of March, to publi-li such accounts and state
ments at least twice in two or more newspapers

This is to be done nfter the accounts liavo
been audited, so that tho auditors, who are au
thorized to meet as often as necessary, must set

has nlrcady been fixed so as to Include only
n salary for tho ono hundred days. The
chief object In withdrawing tlto bill from
tho liotio was lo prevent tho time of tho
Iiottso being wasted In quibbling over it to
the detriment ol tho more Important incis
ures pending. If tho majority find.that tho
work ol tho session Is sufficiently advanced
to admit of an adjournment nt the close, of
tho one hundred days, tho Legislature will
then iuljoiirn,but if the work is found not to
bo In fit condition no adjournment will tako
pinco nt that time.
A question which seems very much to in
terest tho Legislature, nt least somo members
of tho House, nt present seems to be, how
and when, with the greatest honor and least
expense to themselves, the present Legisla
ture is to participate in tho approaching
Centennial festivities. A resolution, or
rather n trio of resolutions, was Introduced
into tho llouso with this object in view.
Tho first mentioned of these stinted out with
two patriotic "whereases," and "Itcsolvcd"
that tho Senato and House, if tho Senate
concur, meet in fraternal reunion in Phila
delphia on the tiny of , A. D. 1870,
and also that n committee of five be nppolnt
ed to niako arrangements for tho occasion.
Another was offered fixing tho time of meet
ing May 10th, 187(3, and tho plaeo at Memo
rial Hall, on the Centennial grounds. After
a considerable waste of timo in discussing
the propriety of tlieso resolutions they were
finally referred lo the Centennial Commit
tee, which Committee will likely grow- very
patriotic in its discussions.
To keep in order and lc-drain, us it were,
the more enthusiastic members, whoso pa
triotism when excited to tho highest pilch
might induce llieni to vote- nwav millions of
oilier people's money in addition to the mil
lions gono before, there is it certain admix
ture ol an economical clement in the com
position of tho House. Tho last mentioned
element tendered the passage of the last
Centennial appropriation, viz., the 10,0(10
to build :t Plate pavilion, "jut as much as a
bargain"' by their opposition. Yet not con
tent that it should now rest in tiio hands of
the .Senate, Mr. Invln, of Allegheny, a rep
resentative of tlie economical clement, last
night made an effort to get it back again in
tlie Hoii-o for tli" purpose of still further re
ducing the amount appropriated, l'ltiiadel-
pliia and vicinage being nrotl-o 1 to action
by this warlike demonstration promptly ral
lied in opposition and the resolution recall
ing tho bill was indefinitely postponed.
La-t night's session was, we might say,
iguominiously closed, and all through an
other silly attempt on part of Mr. Leierh. a
member from l'hiladclphia and a member
of the mliioritv at that, to have tias-cd a
resolution stopping the introduction of new
busine-s after the llilh of March. Tho
House by a storm of noes refused lo receive
the resolution. I'.ut Mr. Morgan, of Law
rence, who entertains for some reason the
insane idea that lie may pos-ibly become
Speaker should the Republicans gain the
next House, sreing another opportunity to
iintnortali.o him-elf, moved a reconsidera
tion of tho matter, and being recognized
through a blunder of the Speaker rendered
an adjournment of tbo House liecc-sary in
order to end tho senseless ilicusieui which

lit the repott, which is signed by till tho
Committee, it is recommended :
That an amendment to the charter of this
institution be made, by which tho Hoard of
Public Charities shall hereafter name seven
twelfths of the Hoard of Managers thereof.
That a choice of a Superintendent shall
bo subject to confirmation and approval by
tho Hoard of Public Charities.
That the admission of infants under seven
years be forbidden, and that provision be
mado for them at tlie Homes for Destitute
and Friendless Children.
That all appropriations shall bo paid only
on certificate of Hoard of Public Charities
that above provisions have been complied
with.
That tho contract system of labor bo dis
continued, as well as the severer mudes of
punishment.
That greater restrictions bo placed upon
the power of committing magistrates and
courts as to the age and character of person
sent to tho I'eform School, to exclude bar
dened criminals and modify restraints ol in
