lean party in this County, or a f.ilr account
if political matters generally, does not till
lerstattd tlio "true Inwardness" of that Instl-
utlon. It daro not criticize tlio official
ictions of tho President or his satellites for
a vacancy in tho Post
Office at this plaeo. It dare not asall tho
management of affairs by Hartranft, Mocker
or Camcion, however exceptionable, or the
samo result might happen,
We will briefly Ulustrato :
For several years two gentlemen of tin
doubted Republicanism Capt. Robison and
Mr Peacock held tho positions of Notaries
Public in this place. They had performed
their duttcs faithfully. anil wero recommend
ed for re-appolntmcnt by both our Hanks
and citizens generally. But the fiat from
1 the centralized Republican Ring, composed
of half n dozen men went to Uarrisburg,
muu in mo piaco oi iwo eiuciem quiccrs uau
.two new and unexperienced men appointed.
Later, Sheriff Grover died. In nntlclpa

1 But at once the Republicans from the
country became interested. An office in this
County seldom falls to their lot, and however
much they may ridicule tho contests for office
i among Democrats, none are to hoi or hungry
a they when there is an opening. The Gover
nor became alarmed. Perhaps the Ring was
not omnipotent ; Cerjtralia, Catawissa, Ber
wick, and dissenters in Bloomsburg might
have a reserved Influence. It wa3 explained
' to him that tho Republican conventions in
this County generally consisted of half a
dozen delegates elected by themselves, aud
, that the 2000 Republican vuters followed the
ticket, because it was tho ticket.
In this dilemma he waited, and his mind
inclined to tho appointment of some man
ouUide of Bloomsburg. Beckley, the head
of tho Ring then determined on a "flank-
movement" (which ho learned in the army?)
and his brother-in-law was put forward. It
. was supposed the Governor could not resist
such an appeal, because Hartranft is a can
3 didate for President, and must follow Grant's
precedents of appointing brothers-in-law.
Besides, how could Hartranft get over the
fact that Beckley was a constant Delegate
to County Conventions, constantly chairman
of tho Standing Committee as well as its
Treasurer, (and by the way never accounted
for money received) a regular Delegate to
State Conventions, a Delegate to the National
Convention, editor of the Republican organ,
and last, but not least Post Master I What
could be moro irresistible?
Yet, the Governor hesitated. But Provi
denco took from us our Associate Judge,Mr.
Scott. The scramble was renewed. Even
Ben. T ortner was sorry he had taken the
appointment of Justico of tho Peace. Ber
wick clamored for Phillips, Centralia for
Camp, and other localities for their respect
ivo favorites. But tlio generalship of the
Ring now came into play. Mayberry Hughes
became a candidate for the vacant Judge
ship. He was genial, popular, and the Cut
nwissaians could not well oppose him, and as
the Ming did not, his nomination and con
Urination were at onco secured. The Ring
said with reason "Catawissa cannot claim
both, as a compromise we abandon tlio
brother-in-law, and insist on Fornwald."
"By this sign they conquered," and thus the
Ring triumped.
THE NORMAL SCHOOL APPHOPHIAT10X
BILL.
The announcement that Gov. Hartranft
iiuu signeu me out upprujiriuiitig ou,uuu t"
nnr Ktntn TJnrmd Splinnl unt ilirt.ll nf
gladness through every heart in our commu
nity. Our citizens had shown great enter
prise ill erecting the former buildings, and
we all felt the calamity when they wero de
stroyed. But the Trustees, encouraged by
tbe citizens, decided to rebuild the institu
tion not only on a better plan, but on a lar
ger scale, and to-day it is a monument of
what pluck and intelligence can do. The
passage of tho bill without un amendment,
by a unanimous vote, entitles tho Legisla
turo to our hearty thanks. Nor can too
much credit be given Senator Allen and
Representatives McIIenry and Rynu,
For a time it was feared that Clov, Hart
ranft would veto the bill. Wo never enter
tained such an idea. True, other institutions
not of a State character clamored for aid
and too many have been recogniztd, but he
could hardly afford to fee a child of the
Commonwealth die for want of help, and
aid institutions which lind no sneeial claim
il pon the Treasury, and had suffered no such
misfortune as befel us. I!ut wo aro now re-
heved from anxiety, and trust that our
School "may livo long and prosper."
The Dloouisburg Coi.umiiia.v hoists the
name of Gen. Winfield S. Hancock n its
candidate for the Presidency, nnd declares
that he "has more elements of strength than
any other candidate who could bo namrd."
The Coi.umuias. may bo right in its conclu
sions, but General Hancock can never be
l'reiidcnt. Ills very record, which it eulo
gizes so highly, would be distasteful to tho
mass of tho Democracy particularly the
southern wing. uazeuc & Jiuiutm.
If our cotemporary means that Hancock's

political history of tho past in vain. The
Democratic party has been generous in glv
Jug oflico to Northern soldiers, and the in
stances aro too numerous for recital. As a
matter of fact, If the Democrats should nom
inate tho best eoldlcr In the Union army
against the meanest bcalawug in the Repub

Magistrate, but not to tho incumbent
lDce when his course is such as to descrvo
public censure. To say that if a President
were to steal tho public moneys, disregard
the laws and continually misbehave, ho is
nevertheless entitled to public respect is too
absurd for serious discussion. Tho oflico
makes tho man respectable but the man can
not make tho office disreputable his be-
havior affects himself alono. Presidents as
well as other servants of tho People aro open
to criticism and must so deport themselves
as to render adverse criticism impossible.
But Grant has done nothing of the sort ho
invites criticism if not worse,
Columbia county 13 without a sheriff, nnd
so there are many hungry aspirants. The
family of Sheriff Grover has removed to
Mifllinvillo, and the prisoners are fed by
Milton Cox. If Columbia county cannot
furnish tho Governor with proper mater
ial out of which to make a sheriff, wo have
lots of that kind of timber lying around
loose in Luzerne. Why not co outsido to
Andaman to do your hanging? Hazekton

Why bless your innocent heart, not a Re
publican in Columbia County, but whoso
heart palpitated to fill tho office, evcu be
fore Sheriff Grover was dead, and tho cars
were burdened with candidates Uarrisburg-
ward who wished to show their devotion to
the country by selling out their neighbors,
and raking in the fees. As to the hanging
business, we have none of that to do here,
and .o scaffold was ever erected in our jail.
We leavo such low business to Luzcrue, if
Hartranft don't relieve the Sheriff from such
a grave necessity.

it appears tmu at Jerseytown there is a
"house of public worship;" nt Mtllvillo
there is "a niecting-houso in the vicinity ;"
at layers Urove a denominational meeting

(in truth, there are three of them ;) at Cole's

In casting my eyes over the pages ofbam
cl O. Warren's "Ten Thousand u Year," I
was deeply impressed with tho beauty of too
follnwing'passnge, descriptive of an interview
between tho hero, Tittlebat Titmouse, nnd
Iii -t discriminating mend, J'.obcrt Hucka
back :
"At length they arrived nt tho open doors
ot a gloomy-looking building, into which
to or three sad and prim looking people
were entering. After walking a lew paces
past the door 'D'ye know. Duel-,' hiiid Tit-
mouse, stopping, 'I've ofb-n thought that
th.it Iheru's something in rclinion.'
To be sure there is for thoso that like it
who doubts it iv a nil very well in Its
place, no doubt, replied Huckaback, with
much surprise, which increased ns lie felt
himself slowly being swayed round toward
the builJing in question, -well, but what

'"O. nothing; but hem I heml' replied
Titmoiine, sinking his voice to a whisper 'a

that way. somehow.'
'Religion a all very well for them that

me I what have either you or mo to be '
" 'Hut. Huck how do you know but wo
might tet MJinethiue to bo thankful for, by
praying I've olten neurd ol great things;

Huckaback stood for n moment irrefo-
lute, twirling about his cane, and looking
rather ilivtastcfully towards tho dingy build
ing, "lo be biire,' said ho liiintly. lit-
iiiouso drew him nearer: but he suddenly
started back 'No! oil, 'tis only a mcetinn-

let me be bad as I may. Give mo a regular

What a delightful thing it is in an impar

dolicale distinctions.

Rr.(iui.ATi.s'(i Catholic Funeiialu. At
a convention of Irish societies, lately called
bv tho priest-hood, at Kcnuiton, it was re-
solved to hereafter dlspenso with tho use of
carriages at funerals except for tho use of
mourners, anil mat tno processions oo niauo
This plan has been adopted in soveral regions

tmel.
This is a sensiblo suggestion. Funeral
expenses have grown to bo inordinate. Re
latives dlallke to discourage sumptuous ar
rangements for fear of being charged with
disrespect to tlio dead. As wo all know the
poor endeavor to rival the wealthy, and the
result Is costly pageants for the benefit of
street gazers, ami distress to actual mourners,
In fact, our ideas of funerals are that they
should ho quiet, and iinoBtentallnus. "Let
the dead bury the dead." The aflllctcd oiks
do not wish to parado their urlef before
the multitude. Many go to thegravoasa
mero matter of form und respect, and more
I from curiosity.
