Tho safest thine to do nowadays, if

at home. If you aro not killled on tho

Another terrible disaster occurred in
tho German ocean last Friday morning
in tho sinking of tho steamer fimbria.
Sho was run down by tho British
Steamer Sultan in a donso fog, nnd
about 300 peopio perished.
Last year M. S. Quay, secretary of
the commonwealth, advertised for pro
posals for stationery for tho stato in
thirty seven nowspapers. The bills for
advertising amounted to $10,702.
Tho stationery itself cost only 10,-

Tho State Senato with its republican
majority does not seem to catch on to
tho retorra Idea. .Last t ruiay it aaopt-
ted a resolution introduced by Senator
Davies, filling all the vacancies in tho
Senato offices, and another ono by Mr.
Myltn, directing the clerk to issue or-
ders for the one hundred dollats
worth of postage stamps for each Sena
tor.
J. Mcdowell Sharpe, Esq., who takes
n front rank in the leadership of the
Democratio house, will iutroduco what
is known as tho "border raid" bill ap
propriating some $2,250,000 of tho
state's money to pay the adjudicated
claims of certain citizens of Pennsylva
nia, residing chiefly in Franklin,
Adams and Cumberland counties for
losses sustained in Longstreet's raid
into Maryland in tho fall of 1802 ahd
Lee's Gettysburg raid.
Tho House hns followed the exam
pic of the Stnto Senate, nnd the mem-
.
.I
laws, thoy nro entitled to $100 worth
of postago stamps. Whether tho law
allows it "or not, such an amount of
stamps ought not to bo drawn from
tho treasury unless tho members actu
ally need them for correspondence
with their constituents. Tho Stato
ought not to pay the postage on pri
vato letters. There is a good chance
for reform by the introduction of a bill
that will put an end to tins abuse.
Rev. Elliott, Chaplain of tho House
ot Kepresentatives at Jlamsburg, in a
recent prayer gave thanks that tho civ.
ii authorities aro now greater than tho
military, and that no bayonets wero
present nt the inauguration. This sen
timent has given great offense to so mo
republican members, because it was n
"political prayer.1' They Beem to for-
get that during tho war which has
been their stock in trade for tho past
twenty years, it was a very common
thing for ministers to preach
politics from tho pulpit, nnd men
who wcro unwilling to sit quietly and
submit to tho abuso heaped upon them
selves and their party, wero called
"disloyal, it strains a point consid
erably to detect anything of a political
character in what Chaplain Elliott
said, but republican nerves arc in a
very sensitive couditon, not having
fully recovered from their overthrow
last fall, aud some allowance must be
made for them.
Notwithstanding tho severe criti
cisms that havo been passed upon the
now administration iu tiiis state, by the
so-oalled independent press, it is proba
bio that Governor Pattison and his cab
inct will survive Tho principal sub
jects of complaint wero that Mr. Patti
son walked from the depot to a friend's
house, on his arrival nt II irrishurg, lie
foro tho inauguration, that ho had
walked up to tho capitol to take the
oath of office, that ho refused to ridu
in tho procession, and other trivial mat
ters. Theso were nil things of porson
al taste, nnd u Uovernor rattison
chose to bo inaugurated in that way,
ho had a right to do so. iNo doubt, it
would have been moro satisfactory to
uio many peopio wno went to Harris-
burg to seo tho sights, nnd it would
undoubtedly havo beeu much moro dig
nified and linpressivo if there hud beeu
somearrangement to keep back the
crowd at tho tiuiu of tlio delivery of tho
inaugural address. A platform would
havo been moro convenient for tho
Governor to speak from, than the small
tablu on which ho stood. Hut these
matters, if not properly conducted,
must bo charged upon mo committee
of arrangements, aud not on tho ad
ministration. Gov. Pattison wanted
simplicity, nnd ho had it. and his man.
tier of being inaugurated has very little
to do with tho public administration of
nlluirs.

tended to be a caurt of Inst resort tor

has the confidence of tlio community.
Their judgments should not bo lightly

whelraing reason. Tho Pardon Board
is not a court for the. trial of questions

prevents wrong-doing, This certainly
cannot be secured it it is understood

been fairly heard ond passed upon by
every court known to tho law, thoy
may still experiment with tlio sympa-
thy and various iudgments of a mixed
board of lawyers and laymen. I shall
mako it a rulo to grant no pardon 04;

tice.

tho latest information -145 lives wore
lost in tho Cimbria disaster. Thoro wero
102 passengers and 94 officers and
crow on board. Of theso cnly 5G so
far havo been rescued. Of six steam
ers sent out by tho Hamburg-American
steamboat company on Saturday night
four havo not yet returned, but as thu
two which returned found nothing,
thero is scarcely auy hope left that
more of tho unfortunates aro alive.
Tho cold at tho time of the disaster
was so intense that many perished
therelrom before sinking into their
watery grave. Tho question who is to
blamo tor the catastrophe will, as usual,
have to be settled by a court ot inquiry
Thero is the samo amount ot assertions

borne ot Uovernor rattison s mends
feel called upon to deny some of the
rumors that havo been atloat regard
ing him and tlioso near nun inaugura

instance that in which it is represented
that he snubbed a reception commit
tee nt tho depot on his nrrivnl hero
and refused the tender of a carriage.
So far from doing this, tho Governor

they got out of the cars, but there wero
none, ami -Hi', x'nltison and his gentle
men friends walked, while tho ladies
were crowded into ono of tho old fash
ioned omnibuses ami hauled to the exe
cutive mansion. Thero was no snub
bing of n committee. Another iustauco
was his rotiisal oi an escort from tho
Americus club. In defense of this it
is urged that Governor Rattison had
already, in a quiet way. refused an es
cort from the Statu fencibles, and it
would havo been a gratuitous insult to
tho nntioii.ll guard to accept a civilian
escort after refusing tho offer ot tho
crack military organization of the
Stale.
A gentleman close to tho governor
was asked how tho governor regarded
the attacks inailu upon him by certain
nowspapers because of his appointment
of Hon, I.uwis O. Casssdy, as nttomoy
general. "Ho doesn't caro tho snap of
his linger for tho attacks," said tho gen
tleman. "Ho never said ho would not
appoint Mr. Cassidy nttornoy general.
I havo been close (o him for months,
and I never heard oven a hint to that
effect.
Having failed in their attacks on tho
goveiuor,',his enemies aio now turning
their attention to ridiculing Rov, Mr,
Kverett, his private secretary, alleging
that iu presenting a communication to
the Senato the latter snid : "I have n
message- in writing from tho governor,"
iho Irievercnt critics foruet to stato
