Hiindiuck H. Wiuciht, (lltANT. Of courso tho President of tho United States would not for a moment bo suspected of complicity In tho corruptions that have recently been unearthed at Washington, and yet a fen pertinent questions suggest them selves just now. First. When Belknap went to Grant and tendered his resignation as Secretary of war, with a confession cf his guilt, wliy did the President accept It so promptly with regrcll Was it to prevent, if possiblo the impeach' ment of his bosom friend ? Second. Why did Grant order tho Attor ney General to Institute prosecutions against all who wcro connected with these little "Irregularities?" Was it to frighten those who knew all about tlio matter luto leaving ttic country, so that thcro would be nono to testify against Belknap in tho courts and thus secure his acquittal ? Third. Ever slnco Col. Fred Grant gradu' ated at West Point ho has amused himself by travelling in Europe, and slnco his re turn, by loafing about Washington. Now, that his name is used in connection with this rascally business why is ho ordered to report at once for service on tho plains? Was it to get him out of tlio reach of legal pro cess, which would summon him to appear before tho House committee and force him to divulge somo family secrets? Fourth. Gen. Schcnck, minister to Eng land, has been accused of complicity in the Emma Mlno frauds. Why was his resigna tion accepted by Grant, while ho was upon the high seas, on his way home? Why was it not accepted white yet on British soil or postponed until after his arrival in this country? Was tho first to prevent his ar rjst in England, and tho second, his itn poichmeut by Congress? There are a few other little matters concerning Brother Orville, and brother-in-law Dent that the people would like to have explained. This affair from beginning to end, shows a desire and effort on the part' of tho President to prevent a full investigation and to screen the scoundrels that have brought disgrace upon tho nation. What a sublime spectacle to foreign pow ers I What a glorious inauguration of our great Centennial Exhibition I BRASS. Among the Legislative proceedings wo find this item : Mr. Yenkel An act making an appropriation of $25,000 to tho Pennsyl vania Medical University of Philadelphia, Tho New Constitution in order to check reckless appropriations mado a provision that no such institutions should receive State aid except by a two thirds vote of the Assembly. It seems to be of no avail, be cause Kepresentatives are somewhat prone to be liberal with public funds. This particular institution has not the shad ow of a claim for public support. It is a private institution very wealthy and not subject to State control. It came to the State Legislature and demanded an appro priation of $500,000, which it received, ac companied by tho pledge that no further sum jvould be asked for. The following year another delegation visited tho Legis lature, and, in forma pauperis begged for $500,000 more, with the dwtaict assurance that no more was needed. In order to fac ilitate the appropriation the Legislature was luvited to Philadelphia was hand somely toasted and wined and of course voted the appropriation. And now the same institution applies to the present Legislature and begs for $25, 000 more. On this and all kindred subjects tho votes of Representatives should be examined with care. . The Loudon Times thinks that "on tho whole, wo cannot but feel that even though tho investigations or prosecutions now pend ing should, prove futile, the impression on tho public must be that a nice sense of hon or does not prevail iu tho official world of tho United States." An impression of that kind is beginning to prevail on this side of the water and by the time the remainder of tho Cabinet has bedn disposed of will prob ably bo quite generally adopted. "A nice sense of honor" is ono of those things which has not been deemed a requisite for states men holding office under this Administra tion, which accounts for tho political ex- istoiKO of tho Belkuaps, Babcocks, Schcncks, Shepherds and similar shining lights of the Republican party. It Is very much to he doubted whether any of these gentleman know what "a nice seneo of honor" means unless It may bo Schenck, who perhaps may have a glimmering of such an idea In paying uu poker' debts. 0UH PAMPHLET LAWS. The Philadelphia Press calls attention of tho Councils of that City to the amount that may be saved iu the printing of ordi nance by abbreviating the enacting clauso and conclusion of each ordinance, This reform In printing our Pamphlet Laws was brought about by tho writer of of this ar tide. As an illustration for the Pamphlet Laws of 1871 It would have iaved 420 3-5 pages. This act not only reduced tho bulk of tho volume but saved the Stato a large item of expense, as tho Stato printer was paid so much per page. In fact the abuse had become so great that in some instances an act of four lines was spread over ouo page. Daniel Drew Old Uncle Dan'l who for thirty years has fought the bulls and bears of Wall Street, Las gone into bankruptcy. Too much shrinkage in some oi tho old man's stocks did tho business and the vet eran succumbed. His indebtedness is ktated to be same $000,000 a tiuall sum indeed to cause the failure of ouo reported to he to rich but In his case, as In many others, his fortune wan larger by report than lit fact Mr. Drew gave a quarter of million to the Theological Seminary bearing his name, which sum Is of ourt secured to the Institution. THE 0UK LIIIMi ItAWS. At tho last meeting of our State Editorial Association, n Commltto was appointed to draft a bill to amend tho existing law on tills subject, and present it to tho Legislature Tho Committee has never met, and wo pre sumo that It Is too lato to accomplish nny thing this session. Although believing In tho "freedom of the press," as guaranteed by our fundamental laws, wo do not bcllcvo in indiscriminate license. But it is not truo that tho press Is untrammeledln all matters proper for public information, nnd wo are surprised that tho Patriot, nnd other equally well informed journals should tako such ground, Tho Constitution of 1873 says : Sr.C. 7. Tho printing press shall ho fr.o to every person who may undcrtako to examine tho proceedings of tlio Legislature or any branch of government, and no law shall ever bo mado to restrain tlio rights thereof. Tho frco communication of thoughts and opinions is ono of tho invaluablo rights of man : nnd every citizen may freely speak, writo and print on any subject, being re sponsible for tho abuso of that liberty. No conviction shall be had In any prosecution for tlio publication of papers relating to tho official conduct of officers or men In public capacity, or to any other matter proper for public Investigation or information, where the fact that such publication was not maliciously or negligently made shall be establiihed to tho satisfaction of the jury; and in nil indictments for libels tho jury shall havo tho right to dctcrmino the law and tho facts under tho direction of the court, as In other cases. This section applies to criminal prosecu tions, but docs not chango tho law of evi dence as to civil suits. In other words, ono class of evidence is admisslblo in ono form of action that is not in another. Not only that, but by existing laws (or rulings) iu a civil suit for libel, presumptions nrc formed and evidenco excluded that is not the fact in other civil suits. The severity of our common law, which wo inherited, is a matter of history. Theft, and wtleh craft, wero punishable by death. Under tho Roman law, libel was punishablo by death. But prosecutions for libel under tlio common law wcro extremely rare. In fact previous to Edward III. no caso is re' ported, and only ono during his reign. Tho existing law was instituted by tho Star Chamber of Charles 1st,, but was expunged from English Courts by G and 7 Victoria, and tho reform has been adopted in most of the States. It may bo truo that tho accepted common law laid down by Sir Edward Coke and con firmed by Lord Mansfield that "tho greater tho truth tho greater tho libel" no longer is maintained in this State, and that s'ince tho decision of Lord Chancellor Erskine in the case of Dr. Shipley tho jury nro not con fined to the mere factof publication, but are also judges of tho law. The statute of 32 Georgo III. settled this question. The act of 1S43 (G and 7 Victoria,) before mentioned, provided in substance that tho truth should bo a valid defence if it wcro published for tho public benefit, and that tho defendant might plead in defence that the alleged libel was published without actual malice and without "gross negligence, ana that before the commencement of the action or at the earliest opportunitij afterwards, the de fendant inserted an apology. Wo therefore insist that in allcascs of libel criminal or civil, the jury are entitled to havo all the facts bearing upon the case,and make up their verdict accordingly. In conclusion wequoto tho following from Jeremy Bentham, ono of England's most distinguished writers, as peculiarly applica ble to this question: "It cannot be denied that men are apt, both as judges and jurors, when coolly deciding in a court of justice, to take offence at cxpressions.which, as ordi nary readers, they never would havo blamed. The judge comments upon the violent words which he has no right to do, seeing that It is the solo business of the jury to decide whether the publication complained of is or is not a libel ; and the jury, recollecting the oath they are under, bewildered by the vagueness of the law, are not permitted to seek for all tho light winch might bo de rived from investigating the truth or false hood of the matter before them." Bv invitation of the Pennsylvania Senate and House of Representatives, as expressed In their joint resolution, Hon. John W. For ney addressed the members of Assembly and a large number of Invited guests last Tuesday cveningtn the Hall of the Houso of Representatives. Mr. Forney was ac companied by Hon. Mortou McMichacl, Hon. A. K. McClure and Col. H. B. San ford ; also by Peter A, B. Widener, John F. Graeff, John W. Forney ,Jr., J. G. L. Brown and John Dunn. Tho meeting was presided over by Lieutenant Governor Latta, assisted by Speakers Davis and Patterson. Mr. Forney was frequently applauded. Col, McClure, Hon. Morton McMichael nnd Col, Sauford also mado speeches which were well received. Tho Centennial was the sub ject. Brother Orville, besides controlling half a dozen Indian tradcrships, admitted, in his evidence beforo tho naval committee, that ho has been doing a large business in the way of getting contracts for business houses. One Baltimore firm told a reporter, somo days ago, that they found that it paid them to retain the President's brother in their nominal employ, paying him $2,400 a year on account of his influence in getting con tracts from the department. Orville con firmed this statement, and confessed further that ho received half tho profits on certain contracts procured'from the Navy Depart ment. Is it any wonder that the expense of this department, iu 1874, amounted to $30,032,587, while they were only ?U,514 G40 in 1800? There can bo no such things as economy when the President's relations pre not only quartered upon the country In all sorts of positions, but also permitted to job out contraoU at extravagant figures. Times. Reform and retrenchment is heard from all parts of the country, but the most prac tical movement in that direction! comes from Governor Chamberlain, of South Car olina. In his recommendation of a reduc tion of all salaries not protected by the Coil' stitution, ho enforces his argument by de- elariili: that although his own salary was protected ho would voluntarily submit to as great reduction as may bo made generally in other salaries, and lie recommended that the reductiou bo one-third. Tho Governor's message contains ono kenttneo of golden quality, which sums up the duty of tho hour not only In tjouth uarollna out in every State, and places It iu the right: "Tho work of retrenching expenses and removing abu hcs is always difficult, but it is ulwaya honorable, and at the present moment It Is npcessary. ledger.

One colored and five white Republicans voted iu the affirmative tlio Hitjyea were all colore J Tho Radical prwi havo hot ijald much a yet concerning this little accident to Ja. vis but will soon have some choice abuse of tho "rebel element," no doubt.

Past precedents nro no justification, Tho gravest errors of tho ago aro covered with tho mouses of antiquity, Tlio pcoplo demand n genuine reform not only In tho matter of legislation, but in lis manner Tho pcoplo madon new Constitution, but nbiNes creep iu notwithstanding. We aro led to this subject by observing tho numerous hills Introduced at Harris- burg for Centennial purposes, nnd the ra pitllty of their passage. Tho amounts aro not needed, nor should tho Stato squander Its money In this manner. It may bo n fine thing for our poorly drilled nnd badly clad militia to cxposo themselves nt Philadelphia at tho tax-paycrs'expense, but wo nro of tho opinion that if they deslro such a display they should pay for tho frolic out of their own pockets. And next comes n bill to erect n building on tho Centennial grounds for tho Governor nnd Legislature. If tlicso gentleman must go, nnd cannot pay their own expenses their constituents do not feel under obliga Hons to foot hills for them. Tho proceedings give thofullowing: Houso bill making an appropriation of ?iu,uiw lor rt proper representation ol tlio mineral resources of Pennsylvania nt tlio centennial exhibition to bo held nt Philadel phia. Called up and passed secoud read' nig. Then wo find this morsel: Pomology is also to be represents at the centennial on an extensive scale, and a bill hns been introduced in the houso asking for an appropriation of $2,500 for defraying the expenses ol tlio saveral counties iu present lug their productions of pomology and pay' inc commissioners to attend to tho macule and taking chargo of them ; said amount shall be paid by the state treasurer in sums oi uu each until all expenses shall have been defrayed ; when, should it be found that n sufficient sum had been drawn out to defray all such expenses, without exhaust ing the amount appropriated, the balance to uo rclunucu or returned to tlio stato treasur er. And then the Grangers want $50,000, and various other Institutions nro forming col umns for n grand chargo on the Treasury. The Stato has been bled enough, and not ono cent more should be appropriated. The people havo had enough of jobbery and ex travagauce. CENTEXXIAL JiEWSl'Al'KK EXII1IIITI0X At the Centennial grounds iu Philadel phia, a building is in course of construction to bo used solely for an exhibition of news papers. It occupies n conspicuous position near tho minature lake, on a lino between tho United States Government Building nnd Machinery Hall. The plan of exhibition is alphabetical ar rangement of partial files of each newspa per or periodical in such n manner ns will make them instantly accessible : the space devoted to each bearing a label with the namo of the publication printed thereon, and further designated by a uumber, by means of which a stranger upon reference to his cataioguo will bo able at onco to ap proach tho section of tho building where the particular journal which lie desires to examine or refer to may be found. Tho coses containing theso files will form alcoves similar to those iu public libraries for the arrangement of books : these alcoves forming long tiers, ono on each side of tho building throughout its entire length, a por tion of the space between being reserved for tho accommodation of attendants, leaving a passago way for tho public eighteen feet in width extending from one end of the structure to tlio other. Tlio beconil story, approached by four flights of btairs, is devoted to reading rooms for the accommodation more especially of newspaper men, nnd will be supplied with conveniences for correspondents. A. catalogue giving tlio namo of each newspaper, its frequency of issue, and tho number which designates the position allot ted to it, together with buch statistical in formation us will servo to convey a compre hensive knowledge of the nature and extent of the business of newspaper publishing iu America, will be issued in a compact form, not dill'eriug very much iu sizo and appear ance from tho Official Catalogues of tho four departments of tlio principal exhibition. Air. Geo. P..Rowell, of New York, will ossunio tho management of tho enterprise, and witli him will rest the responsibility of making it what it should be. For the suggestion of this Exhibition of Journalism iu the full and complelo man ner proposed, the press and public are in debted to Gen'l Jos, R. Hnylcy, President of the Centennial Commission, himself a nowspaper man of large experience and ad vanced views, who knows better than most men thai in this particular'interest tho Unit ed States are not only in advance of any other country, but that they furnish more and better papers, having a larger aggregate circulation than thoso of nil tlio other na tions of the world combined.

Tho crisis camo when nu ignorant soldier, co.ir.so in his tastes and blunt In his percept ions, fond of money and material enjoy menl nnd of low company, was put iu tlio presi dential chair. Wo blame nobody for this, and nobody was blamcable. Tho party did the best It could under tho circumstances, but his real character as a civilian began to appear very early in his administration. It was fully revealed when ho received his second nomination nnd tho day ho received It tho republican party assumed tho respon sibility for him and his followers which is to-day covering it with infamy. We havo been warning tho readers of this journal for soven years that to this complexion it would como nt last: that tlio regime- under which wo wcro living was so co.trso and venal that It must cud In somo awful catastrophe that would cover us with shanio and fill us with dcstnlr; that tho southern "outrages" wcro but a blind, setup by tho thieves to throw tho polico off tho scent, nnd that tho great enemies of the freo government in tills country wcro to bo found not In Louisiana and Mississippi but In Washington; nnd that tho chorus of adulation and apology which was addressed every year by Republican editors nnd Republican conventions to tho President wcro only hardening a somewhat obtuso and selfish naturo in courses nnd asso ciations which wero full of danger to tho country. Tho mischief is, however, by no means Irreparable. Wo havo just ouo year moro of this deplorablo administration to bear with, and during that period wo must, while pushing on tho work of investigation and praying that tho discovery of guilt may stop short of tho highest place, possess our souls In patience. But it is still in the power of the American pcoplo to seo that tho aflliction does not recur by ctceting a President whoso sympathies nnd assochv 'ions connect him with the best social life of the country, who belongs to its meu of honor and intellect nnd morality who is familiar with its best political usages and traditions, nnd who Is cither content with tho fortuno ho has" got or whoso character has been tried by temptation and resisted it, nnd who has tho courago which is needed to head a revolution. For revolution there mu9t be. The reform of tho army of 80,000 civil officers must come, nnd it must come in spite of the Camcrons and Mortons and Couplings and Boutwclis mid Chandlers if tho form of tlio government is to remain unchanged. The Nation, To The Farmers of Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Stato agricultural so' ciety at its meeting in January last resolved to call the attention of tho agriculturalists of this state to tho vast importance of a proper display of that industry at the cen tennial exhibition which commences in Philadelphia, on tho seventh day of May next and is to continue six months. Great efforts havo been made on tho part of its managers to bring into a combined ex hibit a complete display of tho products of the soil of Pennsylvania so that comparison may bo had of our modes of tillage with those of neighboring states and foreign countries. No expenditure of money can bring this about; no intelligence or activity of management; only thoought earnest, liberal contribution from the producer him self, can make thin portion of tho exhibi tion worthy of the profound attention which it should receive. It is the advantage offered to us as farmers and citizens to sustain the honor of tho stato in peaceful rivalry with tlio great industries of tho world. Our en deavor should be to excel them all. It is impossible in a circular nolo to go over the whole of this subject. Our society has taken such action as it was througli be coming it should tako on behalf of the in terests of the National Exposition in omit ting its own exhibition for 1S7G, nnd by tho offer of a largo sum to such objects of merit ns may deserve reward. In view, therefore, of this action of this society, nnd in compliance willi the resolutions to which notice has been called, wo respectfully ask that the various county societies through out the state who havo not yet perfected ar rangements for holding fairs this year will follow the example of our society and post pone the same until 1877. We find it impossible to stato iu detail the regulations to be bo observed in making entries on tho part of societies or individ. uals, but it will afford tho president of tho state society who is one of the state com missioners great gratification to reply to any application for information that may bo mado to him by letters addressed to Cat- tawissa, Columbia county, or under caro ol D. W. Seiler, secretary, Uarrisburg. Letters of inquiry may also bo addressed B. Landrcth, exposition room Philadelphia. I havo tho honor to be very respectfully your servant, Gnonnr, Scott. President. An Honor to His Ancestors, Mr. E. I). Winslow, it appears is an honor to his ancestors. Ho comes of a family ofdissoluto characters and lawbreak ers, who wcro well known, years ago, in and around Barre. Thomas Winslow was repeatedly nrrested for counterfeiting, and at last a box of bad bills was found in his cellar. His brother, Mark, was ono of the most noted counterfeiters In tho state, and ended his life by suici.lo rather than serve outasentencoof 12years. Edward, another brother, followed tho saino trade, and spent about half his life in jail. Lucrctin, a sis ter was in tlio gang, nnd signed tlio bills. Aftorward, removing to Pennsylvania, she became tho reputed wife of a man who was presently hanged for murder, and had her self a narrow cscnpo front conviction as an accomplice. Still later, sho joined a strol ling theatrical company, and died nt the south. Sho was a person of talent and win ning manners, but of no prineipel. Two other sisters of tho Winslows married well- known counterfeiters. This family history accounts both lor the cleverness and tho crimes of the Boston forger. Ho had in herited a tasto for deception and for getting money dishonestly earned. Grant's Disregard of Law, That Grant has no respect for tho laws of the land has been so often proved that it is useless to cumulate evidenco to demon strate it. But the caso of Priest Newman Is so open a disregard of common decency that it ought to be known, now that Ulys sen objects tq cectarhui influences In govern ment. Priest Newman it Grant' confessor. Ho preaches to him. Enlightens him. Uses him. So to reward this right reverend pro late, Grant sent him on a pleasure trip over Europe, To puy his expenses Grant made lim Inspector of consulates, and caused tho public money to be lavished on him, This trip cost tho public Treasury many thousands of dollars. Mr. Fish, tho Sec retary of State, disclaims all participa- tion in this grab of the public money. It wua (Irni)t who did it. Now how any ofli. ccr who has pontrol of (hp public money, could payout theso thousands or the peo ple's money without authority of law, ahowa the power, the abuse of power, tho disre gard of law which Grant commits whcnevei t spits his will, This cose is only ono ex atnpleof Grwifidiireearti for law. (W. WASHINGTON LETTEK. Washinuton, 1). O., March 1 1 , 1870, Sjiccial Oirrcspondcncc. Plnchback's claim Is now settled, It Is to be hoped forever, and tho places which know him unco will know him no more. Tlio burden of his song to tho Senato now is somewhat thus : "I'd mourn tlio hopes Hint leavo me, Slnco thy votes havo toft mo, too j I'd weep when friends deceive me, It they, llko you, had proved untrue." Ho also had tho eubllmo Impudcneo to claim $22,000 for having been for tlirce.yearB a bono of contention botwecn the two par ties In the Senate. If justico was done and n balance struck it would bo found that Piiichback really owes tho Government a much larger sum than this, for occupying bo mucn valuable time. Ho has not been con testing a scat already occupied. Ho has merely been attempting to establish a claim which is now declared entirely unfounded in law, nnd therefore tho costs should fall upon him. It is said that his rejection can bo traced to tho speech nf Senator Tliurmaii. Up to the'tlmo when that speech was deliv ered it was pretty certain that a majority was in favor of Ills admission ; but Mr.Tlmr man made such n logical statement of both sides of the question as to convert Edmunds, of Vermont; Morrill, of Maino; Christlan cy, of Michigan, and Paddock, of Nebraska, so that when the matter camo to nu Issue tho result was a voto of 32 against to 29 In favor of admission. Tho best lawyers hero think that Kellogg has no authority to ap point a Senator, but that the vacancy must continue until the Legislature meets again. Probably tho best feature in tho wholo af fair, and that upon which tho country is to bo congratulated, as an evidenco of u re turning sense of what is due to justico and the Constitution on the part of hitherto ex tremely p.utiz.m Republicans, is the defeat of Morton on this, his pet scheme. Ho has nursed this project for such a Icngtn of time, has displayed so much malicious ingenuity in pressing it, and has counted upon Its suc cess with so much faith, as something which should obtain for him tho good opinion and support of tho colored race South and nssist his Presidential aspirations, that tho disap pointment and chagrin must bo very great, outsido of tho loss of prestigo as u leader, which will certainly follow so signal a do feat. Ono circumstanco deserves mention in this connection as illustrative of tho real sentiments of our Radical friends iu tlio up per Houso as to tho "nigger." No sooner was tho question decided against poor Pinch back than Mr. Ferry gave orders that ho was no longer to bo allowed upon tho floor of that august and aristocratic body, while the House, Democratic in nil things and far moro charitable, gave him tho freedom of tho floor during its sessions. Here is a fruit ful theino for Senator Bruco, and wo would respectfully suggest that ho "touch 'em up" ou it. This instance of want of feeling for tlio misfortunes of a would bo Senator reminds me of another, involving tho most flagrant exhibition of ingratitude on tho part of friends toward tlio lato War Secretary. When he was taken beforo Judgo Suell of the Polico Court, on the warrant of arrest, and his bail fixed at $25,000, it was natural ly to bo expected that the long train of friendsif) who had for years feasted at his table, rode m his carriage, and in a thousand ways enjoyed a hospitality which was prince ly and gorgeous extravagance, would havo rushed forward in an enthusiastic and eager crowd, vicing with each other us to who should havo the distinguished privilege of showing to an astounded country his indi vidual confideuco in tho honor and honesty of Mr. Belknap It was to bo expected that some of the wealthy men of his party, some of the Fishes and Chandlers, who saw iu his fall tho premonitory symptoms of their own decline would havo stepped to the front in the bitter hour of his adversity ,aud sworn to bind up his wounds nnd pour upon them the balm of friendly offices. But, alas 1 such was not the case, and like the priest and Le vite, they "passed on tho other side," For hour after hour he sat iu an ante-room ad joining tho court, his head bowed upon his hands, alqno with his crime and its punish ment, whilo Mr. Carpenter, his attorney, hurried hither nnd thither to find a bonds man for tho pitiful sum of $25,000 1 It isan old, old story of "man's inhumanity to man," and gives Belknap much reason to believe that Goldsmith spoko truly when he said : All I what Is friendship but a namo? A charm that lulls to sleep; A shade, that follows wealth nnd fame, And leaves tho wretch to weep. In the matter of tlio demand of tho Grand Jury for the secret records of its committee, embodying the evidenco of Marsh,tho House stands upon its privileges and refuses to send them beforo tho jury. The Republicans, headed by Blaine, are anxious to make it appear that tho Democrats nro by this action obstructing tho ends of justice, when, in fact, tho Houso cannot, consistent with its own dignity, adopt any other course. Blaine complains that tho Committee released Marsh, and gavo him money to pay ills way ti Canada. The fact is, they released the witness, liko any other court, when through with him ; he received the witness fees to which ho was entitled by law, and then, of his own freo will nnd accord, and for reasons known to himself, left for Canada. But another fact was brought out in tho discussion the other day, which is of much importance. Mr. Ilhilnc, with his usual cunning, took tlio trouble to goto tlio Ar lington Hotel, and there saw Marsh depart at oxactly 1.30 p. in. Ho then rushed spas modically and franiically up to his scat iu tho Houso nnd proclaimed that the Commit tee was tho causo of his cscapo from tho hands of justice. Nuw the question very naturally arises in our minds: If Mr, Blaino was at tho Arlington at 1.30 p. m nnd knew ns ho charges, that Marsh had com mitted perjury and been discharged from cus tody, why did ho not arrest him ? Why did ho allow him to escape when ho could havo prevented it?

IlAitttisiiuna, March 14, 187G, During tho session of last night, as usual, several "apples of discord" wcro cast upon tho tapis, First and foremost nmotig theso was a resolution offered by Mr. Foster, of Schuylkill, Instructing Congress to present it medal or somo other mark of distinction to tho llvo military companies of Pennsylva nia who first responded to tho call for troops in tho lato war. Two companies from Potts vllle, ono from Reading, ono from Allen town, and ono from Lcwistown wcro named. The resolution was adopted, and no sooner was the Houso adjourned than linllcirtloiis were manifested that this resolution is likely to oxelto no little ienlousy among tlio veter an soldiery of tlio Commonwealth. Your readers will recollect that last year gravo charges wcro mado against a corpora tion formerly styled "The Laurel Run Im provement Company," but nt present doing business under tho namo of "Tho Reading Coal and Iron Co." A commlttco of Inves tigation into the condition of tho affairs of this company was appointed, which commit tee, after working arduously all summer nt Cape May, succeeded iu making up a report which didn't mean very much and which on its presentation to tho present Legislature cnuscd scarcely a ripplp. Last night Mr. Jameson, of Bucks county, again disturbed the equanimity of this company, which has been resting lu fancied security, by introduc ing a bill which in a summary manner au thorizes the Governor to appoint fivo disin terested persons in whom shall be vested all tho properly, real mid personal, of tho "Reading Coal nnd Iron Company," these persons to bo known as tho board of receiv ers of this company. They aro to givo such security ns tho court of common pleas of Dauphin county shall fix, Theso receivers having sold tho property and effects of said company and having marshalled tho assets shall apply tho same to tho payment of tho dehu of said company, and the balaneo of tho money to and among the stock-holders therein pro rata according to the number juf shares held by each, Now "wo shall see what wo shall see" in regard to this move ment. Tho bituminous coal initio ventilation bill has not yet been rescued from the clutches of the House. Nearly tho whole of to-day was passed in its consideration. Amend ments without number were showered upon it, and to cap tho climax of its troubles a bitter partizan fight sprang up upon the question of the appointing power to be nam ed in the bill, for niino inspectors, &c. The Governor alone was first mentioned, but it was deemed by the Democrats rather an uu safe proceeding, so they determined that the Secretary of Internal Allliirs at present a Democrat should bo associated with the Governor in the making of these appoint ments. So bitter grew tho fight that for a littlo while this morning tho fate of tho.bill was very uncertain. Tho amendment, how ever, was finally inserted. Tho bill now awaits tho final action of the House. Quito a littlo stir was mado to-day by tho refusal of Speaker Patterson to place his namo to a Senate bill because the Speal-cr of tho Senate had first placed his there. Mr. Patterson claiming that according to parlia mentary usago tlio name of tho Houso Speaker should appear first. When tho ac tion of Mr. Patterson was announced to the Senate it was met with a storm of indigna tion. Tlio Speaker of tlii House was de nounced for his action, and there was somo wild talk of compelling him by the courts to aflix his signature to the bill. In tho af ternoon Speaker Patterson placed his name to the bill, but before that of'tlic Speaker of Senate. Tho matter will probable rest jut where it is. Certainly no further notice should bo taken of it. Hon. J. W. Forney is delivering his ad dress on ''IlisC'entcnniiil Experience in Eu rope" beforo a crowded audience in the Hall of Representatives to-night. Philadelphia, Jan. 1 187G. .Messrs. beth V. howleoifcoiis. Gentleman: Miss S. Burns, nf 17th and Coates Streets, has long been a sulleier from a severe cough and hoarseness, which I con sidered chronic. She was treated by some of our most eminent physicians, but they wero onlv able to afford her temporary relief I prescribed Uu. Wistau's Balsam op Wim Citr.r.nv, tho use of four bottles of which entirely cured her, as ,it is now fuiir months since she took tho last of it, during which time sho has had no return of the complaint. Eortho good of sutlering hu manity, Miss Burns has requested ino to lav tho caso before tho public. Yours truly 'T. D. McOhath, M. IX, Druggist and Chemist, S. E. cor 7th and Wharton Streets.

If ho will drop Bnbcock and Luck cy, cut Boss Shepherd, toss Secor Robeson overboard, drum out Belknap, ignore Ills ro tations, dismiss Marshal Sharp, and stand by Bristow nnd Solicitor Wilson, it will let bygones be bygones. Such a modest reipiist ought certainly to receive favorable con sideration. MARKET REPORTS. BlAOOMSIIUItU MAltKKT.
