ISIFOllTANT DECISION.
Judge Dean recently rendered a decision in
the Courts of Blair county lhat is of consider
erable importance. The poin t decided is that
the signatures of the maker of a note executed
in pencil and afterward inked over by a second
or third party to preserve the signature is a
"material alteration, and is therefore void.
This quistion has never been decided by a Sn-
reme Court, but if it should become a law
ow important it is not to doctor signatures by
nking ihem over.
Under a new law passed at the last session of
the legislature, SherilFs inquisitions are com

PENNSYLVANIA PROHIBITIONISTS.
PIIOCKKIIINOS OF TIIK STATE CONVENTION' AT
ALTOONA.
Ai.tooxa, September 23. The prohibition
State convention met nt Ibis Oily at 10 o'clock
this morning. J. N. Pierce, secretary of the
state committee, read a call for Ihe convention,
and Dr. Nesbitt, of Pittsburg ltd in prayer.
Geo. T.Turner, of Pittsburg, waB made tern:
porary secretary, and subsequently they were
made permanent officers of the convention.
Mr. Turner, on taking the chair, further exi
plalDcd the call. He had interrogated, he
said, the republican, democratic and greenback-
labor candidates for State treasurer, but they
had so far declined lo answer, or to place them
selves on record on the questions addressed to
them ; hence, the prohibitionists were impelled
to take political action.
About sixty delegates were present, and let
ters were read from Hon. James Black and R.
Audley Brown, Speeches were made by Mr.
Hendrickson, of Bucks; Prof. Moffit, of Lan
caster ; S. P. M'Calmont, of Venango, and
oilier.
The resolutions denounce the liquor traffic,
refer to the refusal of the legislature to re-
enact local option and to the absolute ignoring
of the temperance question In any address of
Gov. Hnyt or in tbe platform of the democrat
ic, republican or national parties, all of which
show an unwillingness or iinpntency lo change

THE HEPUnLICAN CONVENTION.
The tolling of the Court House bell on last
Monday aficrnoon causeJ several cltlns lo
Inquire as lo tho cause. Investigation Iproved
it to be a Convention summoiitd to hold an In
quest oyer the decayed renmalns of the Repub
lican psrlr. Slowly and sadly about 30 mourn
ers gathered In to witness the sad ceremony ,and
Iwenty two spectators Joined to see tho rite
duly performed, The Assembly was called 10
ordtr by J.C. Brown of Ihe Jlepubtican, J. V.
Logtn was sdecled as Secretary. A list of
townhlps was then rallisl to get a list of Ihe
chief mourners. About half of Ihe dislticts
were represented, and but two men presented
credentials. The others were picked up hap
hazard. Not one Republican vote In fifty was
polled at thi primary election.
On motion Hon. M. G Hughes, was called
to preside. Our space will not permit us lo
give his rem sr ks In full. In substance he
thanked Ihe assembled multitude for the dis
tinguished honor conferred upon him In
view of the mlghly issues at slske he counsel
led harmony. Tho Ufa of the nation was at
stake and hydraheadeil treason must be put
down, even if substitutes had to ba cilled Into
the field fjr lhat pursse, (silent applause).
Let the office-holders but do llieir duty, and
the Democrats will not have over 2200 majority
in old Cilumbla, We could not bear distinct
ly, but presume the speiker made a touching
allusion to the widows and orphans, and after
a grand peroration, sat down and resumed his
five cent cigar.
On motion J, V- Ligin was continued a
Secretary.
Dead silence then reigned for a time, but the
machine commenced moving afier Mr. Brown
hinted lhat something ile must bo done.
Thereupon Reece Fairman and Divid T. Jones
of North Scott were nominated for Sheriff.
The vote stood 21 for Fairman 8 for Jones.
Of course as a prominent Republican remarked
"This soldier business is played out." It was
poor Jones' misforlune lo have served through
tho war, and In the performance of duty was
severely wounded. lie got tight votes, from a
class of men who, when he audolhers went lo
tho front, said, "we will take care of your fami
lies when absent, preserve your memory if dead,
and honor you if you return "Certainly."'
Nominations for Jury Commissioner were
then declared in (order. The following gen
tlemen were placed In nomination j G; A.
Buckingham, Berwick; John Hnrlman, Hem
lock ; G. B. Hasler, Fishing creek ; Thco. W.
Smith, Jackson.
Tho ballot resulted as follows, viz .
Buckingham 10 , It irt'iun, lo ; Hosier, 1;
Smith, I. llosler.Iliickingham ami Sinithhav
ing been soldiers, of course were beaten. The
second ballot was as lollows i Buckingham, 10 ;
Harlman, 17, Smith, 1. John was therefore
nominated. The "machine" worked as smooth-
as it did wiien he was nominated for Sheriff
1S73 by tl.e Republicans, and sold out to
Aaron Smith, Bolter, for so much cash down,
d the balance was paid when Smith now
Temperance candidate for the same office was
elected. Good enough, Harlman, sell out
again.
CORONER.
For this important office the following noin-
ations were made ; Hon. M. G. Hughes, R.
Neal, Jos. Crawford, J, V. Logan, Samuel
Kisner. With a patriotism unequalled, the
nominees declined the proffered honor, some
suggesting press of business at home, some ig
norance as to the duties of the office, &c. &c. A
quiet suggestion from Mr. Brown to Mr. Kis
ner, however, that there was no danger of his
being elected, induced the latter to accept the
nomination.
Another dead silence then reigned for some
time finally broken by tho selection of J. C
Brown as Chairman of the Standing Committee,
True, Mr. Brown was not a delegate, and it
usual for the Commute to select their own
Chairman ; but as Beckley and Brown owned
the Convention, it was deemed advisable to act
then, on the principle that 'a bird in the hand
Is worth two in the bush."
A few members of the Standing Committee
were then namel and tuo firce ended.

THE

Justlco Warren J, Woodward of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania, died nt Ills summer

New York, on Tuesday, September tho
Iwi-nty'thlrd nt live o'clock in jhe afternoon,

day of the present week.
We can only In our present issue giro somo
britf tiotico of tho life and character ot this
distinguished jurist, whose service as president
judgo In this county from 185(1 to 18fil, ob-
taint il for him the profound respect nnd
nttachmint of all our people. Ho was never a
candid ilo for political office, in the ordinary
sense of thnt term, but by devotion to bis
profession of the law ho qualified himself for
high judicial positions nnd obtained them
without 1 ersonal solicitations or effort. Although
a Democrat of tho siralghtcft sect he was
appointed by Gov. Pollock to be president
judge of our judicial district composed of
Columbia, Sullivan, and Wyoming counties
upon a general request of the members of tho
bar of both parties, and was afterward elected
to the same position by tho people without
opposition, Upon the bench he exhibited
great ability and impartiality united with a
faithful devotion to the duties of his office
All business beforo him was promptly disposed
of and the intrusion of political feelings or
other sinister influence into bis Courts was
sternly prevented, Ho brought to the bench
qualities which had received their training nnd
discipline under Judge Conynghnm of Luzerne
county, before whom his professional lif; at
the bar bad been passed an admirable Judge
nnd a finished gentlemen whose memory yet
hofds the respect of tho people of all Ihe Courts
In which his judicial duties were discharged
These qualities constituting high qualifications
fur a judgo were great integrity of purpo'e,
great industry, and a most sincere unassuming
devotion to justice. And in social intercourse
off the bench, bis temper was genial and
kindly, and his friendship was considered n
proper object of pistand honorable effort.
In 1801, Judge Woodward was invited to
accept a nomination for president Judgo cf
Berks county, and was chosen to that position
nt the general election of that year by a largo
majority. In 1871 ho was reelected without
opposition, for he hnd then becomo known to
the pcoplo of thnt county as a most admirable
Judge nnd an estimable man, and his retention
upon tho bench was considered an object of
tho utmost importanco lo tho pcoplo of that
county. From thnt position of usefulness,
however, ho was called to the bench of the
Supreme Court by an elec ion in the fall of
IH74, taking his seat on the first Monday of
Jsuuary following, soat the time of his death
he hud served as a Justice of tbe Supreme
Court something more than four years and a
half. From notices that aro being published
in leading daily journals, it is plainly tube
Been that tbe great abilities and high character
of Judge Woodward had come to bo known
and appreciated generally by tho legal profes
sion and by tbe people of tho whole state, and
most sincere regrets aro expressed nt tho loss
which U10 administration of justice bus sustain
ed by his death, His opinions to bo found in
tho books of reports will remain to bear evi
denco of his ability, and their language and
composition to gratify all readers of sound
taste, and learning.
Judge Woodward was born in Wayne
county, this state, secured in his youth an aca
demic education nt Wilkes Barre, taught
school several terms in his native county,
entered a printing office of the Wayne County
Herald, at Bethany, and conducted that news
paper for a time in the tdjsence of its proprie
tor and was then for about two years connected
with the Pcnnaylcanicm nt Philadelphia in an
editorial capacity.
He next studied law at Wilkes Barre, and
then practiced for about fifteen years with
eminent success, holding at the time of his
appointment to a judgeship, the lendinjj prac
tice at the Luzerne bar.
He had the habits and tastes of n student,
and wa one of the most laborious of men,
always disposed to matter difficulties and go to
the bottom of a subject. A conscientious per
formance of judicinl duty involves much of
cone ntruUd a'tention and effort, quite
known to the outer world because perfoimed
mostly in private. Even in the lung run
results on y become evident; it comes to be
known that the faithful Judgo is a great or
accomplished lawyer thst Jus work
correctly and promptly performed that sound
law is pronounced and impartial justice ad
ministered by him but little is known by tbe
general public of the days or weeks or years
of potent toil, and of self-disclplirre which
have made him what he is on accomplished
minister of justice-
The immediate cause of the Judge's death
was nervous exhaustion, accompanied by an
enlargement of the liver. For twenty years ho
had been subject to recurring bilious attack
which with overwork appear to bavo caused
bis final sickness and death
His walk was remarkably erect, bis limbs
and face clothed with little flesh; but his frame
was of fair size, his body substantial, nnd hi
head showed intellectual development and
power. His eye was kindly and kindled in
lsmdiar discourse, his conversation was cm
phntic, without violence, nnd hnd tho charm
of earnestness and variety in intercourse with
friends. He read much of general literature,
and obtained larger views of mankind and
affairs than those of the mere laMter or plod
dingjudgc. But of all his characteristics
conscientiousness was perhaps tho most com
manding nr-d constant; this was the spur to
cd and found these 11,000 bonds were In the
Glrard Hank nnd unused. .Subsequently the
bank gave n receipt in Joseph T. Italley, Ms
successor niStato Treasurer, for these bonds.
The receipt was Imndid hr llslly, nt the
expliatloii of his term, to Lit K. Ulifer, his
successor.
These bonds remained nt theUlrnrd Hand
until Henry J. Mogratv was appointed Slate
Treasurer in 185G. It appears that he be
came anxious tn recover these bonds nnd
haven settlement with the Glrard Dank,
and that from an entry In Iho hooka of the
Treasury Department during his term, and
made by him, ho had A settlement with tho
Glrard Dank on tho Ot li of December, 1850.
From on entry It appears that tho Glrard
Hat k bail used $l,000 of these bonds nnd
was unable to deliver them lo Mngraw. Hut
In lieu of these the bank delivered to Mn
graw $23,000 of the five per cent, certificate
loan and twenty-one bonds of 4,000 each
of the loan of Ihe 4th of May, 1852, and
fifty-ono bonds of the loan of the l'Jtli of
April, 1853, of J 1,000 each. Magraw re
ceived at tho same time the Interest which
had accrued and a check for tho difference
between tho market-value of the five per
cent, certificate loan and the bonds which
hnd been used.

The Superintendent of tho Census Bureau
las issued a circular in relation to tlio offico
of the Knumcratorunder Census law, in which
tho duties of that offico aro defined, and oth
er information in relation to tho discharge of
those duties given. The duties in tho main are
identical with those of an Assistant Marshal
under the last three censuses, but the provis
ions of tho law regarding tho time and tho
size of the enumeration districts make tho of
fico differ widely from tho former. Under
the old law subdivisions nro limited to twen
ty thousand inhabitants, whila by the present
law they aro limited to four thousand, and
will bo generally confined to a singlo town
where tho number may bo oven less. By tho
old law from Juno 1 to November 1 was al
lowed for tho enumeration, wliilo under the
present statuto it is required to ho made in
June, and in cities of more tliati tenthousand
inhabitants in two weeks from the first Mon
day In June. Tholaeercirato amount of com
pensation to an enumerator cannot exceed inuor nnu stuuy turouguout nuc-Hrcer, carrying
one hundred dollars, as but one month's time Idm with tireless activity through nil tho ob-
I
s allowed, and Ihe pay not to exceed ti per
diem. It is expected that enumerators will
in llieir own immediate locality, knowing and
known to most of those they enumerate with
out incurring traveling txpenscs in a majori
ty of cases, and that in many instances tho
work can bo dono without materially interfer
ing with their other vocations, so that a mora
competent class of enumerators may ho se
cured. Township assessors, local officers and
postmasters at small offices, etc., aro suggest
ed as men likely to perform tho work faith
fully and intelligently. Country physicians
within tho circuit of thuir usual practice
would, it h thought, often muko excellent
enumerators. Their knowludge of vital con
ditions, their appreciation of tho Importanco
of trustworthy statistics, together with their
knowledga of tho history ot families, would
combiue to male returns aliko of deaths, aud
of tho living population from officers of this
class especially valuable. Thero would also
he tho practical consideration that men of this
prole ion are, as a rule, already mounted,
and their service iu tho capacity of cnunicra
tors would involve 110 'expense whatever for
outfit. Schoolmasters havo largely been
found in England among tho best qualified
enumerators. Accustomed to keep lists and
raako reports, almost aoenrato in accounts,
traiued in punctuality and precision, aud ac
customed to enforce them upon others, the
teacher within his school district would gen
erally do his work rapidly, neatly ar-d accu
rately.
