A despatch from Pittsburg btates that

A horrible stench arises trom the grav

This is due to the interment of bodies

Htances tho bodies tilling the grave to

of city authorities aro there in Pittsburg,
that such a shocking condition of affairs

tho sooner steps are taken to remedy tho

II LI K CANMDATKS,
Tho gentlemen nominated at tho Conn
ty Convention last Tuesday, aro all re
putable citizens, consistent and reliablo
Democrats, and deserve tho solid sup
port of tho party. Only three of tho
number were re-elected R Ti. Shu-
man tor Associate .luilge, William
lCriekbaiim for Prothonotary and
Chailes Relchait for County Com
missioner. The others are men of in
telligence nnd capability, who will ad
minister tlio nltairs nl their respective
offices with satisfaction to the people and
credit to themselves. The Democratio
majority is steadily increasing in the
lounty and tho ticket this year should
cceivo tho voto of every Democrat, in
order that thu full party strength maybe
shown. After every convention thero is
huio to follow sonic feeling pf disap
poinlincnt on tlio part of deleated candi
dates nnd their friends, but this should
never bo permitted to affect the voto in
the fall. Wo do not believe that there
will bo nny opposition to tho nominees
at tho coming election, but that, on thu
contrary, all will bo chosen by triumph
ant majorities. Apathy is a moro dan
gerous foe to success than disaffection,
nnd all good Democrats should deem it
a duty not only to voto but to seo that
their neighbors do likewise.
Why American Omuls aro ('referred-
The growing reputation of American
manufiiolurers in the maikets of tho
world has alarmed competitors abroad.
Whatever Americans iinderlake,wliether
I. be machine tools, cutlery, silks, flour,
cotton cloth, or any other merchandise,
thoy make their brands the leading ones,
selling lor tho most money, and univer
sally sought after. Tho reasons for this
aro plain. It is not on account ot tno
better nnd moro direct processes employ
nil! it is not, liv diseardini? workshoi) tra
ditions and old-time methods j it is not
by such adventitious aids that wo have
achieved so great an eminence that our
trade marks aro counterfeited and for
eign goods nro represented as of Atneri
can make. It is beoauso our manufac
turers havo found that merchantilo hon
esty is tlio only policy, and that when
they attempt to adulterate or lower the
standard tlio criticism 01 competitors ex
poses them at once.
American machine tools of first-class
makers aro not cut in weight or 111 work
inansliip. It is a race to seo who shall
discover a weak part that can bo made
stronger, or a detail exposed to wear
that can bo mado more durable, f ho
simois true of cotton goods and silks,
Tho senseless weighting of both with
adulterants of one kind or another is not
practiced here, for experienced teaches
our people that the best is tno cheapest.

ATTOUNEV GENEUAIS COMMISSION.
Under tho above caption tho Patriot
of the Sthinst. lias an extended editoiial,
in which it claimed that the Act of April
7th 1870, under which tho attorney
general's, sinco that date have drawn
. 1! . 1ST Mn
commissions iiiiiuuiiiiiii iu pi,uju
annum, is unconstitutional and void
The title of this act is as follows : "'An
Act to enlarge the -jurisdiction of the
court of common pleas of tho county of
Dauphin 111 cases wherein tho common
wealth may bo plaintiff, and to provide
for the issuing of writs of foreign attach
ment in such cases." The first- section
which nominally provides for tho exten
sion of the jurisdiction of the Dauphin
county court, does not do so in realjty.as
tho court already had full powers in the
premises. The second section purports
to civo tlio attorney general power to
collect debts duo tho Commonwealth
but ho was fully empowered so to do by
the Act of April 21, 1857. Tho thn
section provides that for certain unjiaii
claims duo tlio Stato thero shall be pah
by tho debtor or debtors "a commission of
"live percent, to the counsel or attorney
"of tho commonwealth, which shall be
"charged 111 addition to any mteiestor
"penalty payable under existing laws
"provided that no greater amount than
. , 1 , ,1 1 - ! I I
"seven tnousaiKi uouars ou pain 101 pro-
"fessional services during any one yea
"and that any surplus shall be paid into
"the state treasury." There is nothing
in the title of tho Act to indicate tho
presence of such a provision, importanl
as it is. This is in direct conflict witl
the Constitution, which expressly pro
vides that ''No bill shall be passed by tho
legislature containing more than one
subject, which shall bo clewhj expressed
tn the title, except appropriation bills."
Tho language is plain and cannot be
misconstrued. It is equally plain that
the bill does contain moro than one sub
ject not clearly expressed in tlio title. It
follows, that tho Act is unconstitutional
and, as a matter of course, that the sum
of $7t)Jl) drawn annually from the treas
ury by different attorney generals dur
ing tho past eleven years, was not law
fully drawn and ought to bo returned.
Tho peoplo aro iu tho humor for re
trenchment just now, and would bo as
well pleased to recover $77,000 taken un
lawfully by attorney generals as they
were to save tho expenditure of $125,
000 to legislators who were not entitled
thereto. It may be well for Mr. Wolfe,
or somo other member of tho legislature,
to request tho atteiidancoof Attorney
Ocueial Palmer iu court, to havu this
little matter judicially determined.
