4 ' 3 a &xtmmi. EBCNSBURC. PA.. FRIDAY. JANUARY 23. 1885. The committee in charge of the in auguration ceremonies at Washington has selected Geaeral McClellan as Grand Marshal. General Hancock was first designated, but felt constrained to de cline in consequence of the recent death of his son in Mississippi. The Demo cracy of the country will endorse the choice of McClellan. the leading Union General who is a member of the Demo cratic party. CniEF Justice Waite left Washing ton on Tuesday last for Florida and will be absent for some time. He goes for the benefit of his health which has been Tery poorly for several months. John Kelly, the boss of Tammany Hall, will also tarn his face towards Florida in a few days in search of the same precious boon. It is said that Mr. Kelly, wb3 never does anything by halves, over worked himself during the closing days of the late Presidential campaign, and hah not since its close been a well mau. If there are enough Iemoeratic mem bers of Congress so intent upon getting money for their districts through the River and Harbor bill, or the different bills for erecting postoffices and other public buildings, that they will so shape their course as to prevent the passaee of any of the necessary appropriation bills, and thus compel Mr. Cleveland to call an extra session at the beginning of his administration, they will be visited with the consuming wrath and blue brimstone curses of every true and hon est Democrat in the land. State Senator Lewis Ii. Emery, of McKean county, who is a loyal Re publican, but at the sarre time the most bitter anti-Cameron man in the State, openly asserts that he furnished six hundred dollars to Thomas V. Cooper, Chairman of the Republican State Com mittee, to aid Blaine's election ; that Cooper diverted the mouey from its in tended purpose and spent it in secnring the election of Cameron's Triends to the Legislature. Emery also makes the charge that Cooper even sent some of the money into h'm own (Emery's) dis trict to defeat biro, owing to his well knowu hostility to Cameron. Cooper denies the last allegation, but judging the size of Hercules from the dimen sions of his foot its looks like the very thing that Cooper would do. He is a wonderfully tricky politician and in ways that are dark is hard to beat. Tiik 1'ittsburgiVf of Wednesday last says : The financial troubles of the Oli ver Itrcs. are in a fair way of adjustment that wiil enable the firm to continue operations and secure the creditors. The list of total liabilities presented at the meetingof creditors yesterday aggre gated ?2,410.(kx), and the assets are stated at 5.5,."78,0tO. The firm proposes to adjust the liabilities in yearly pay ments of one-fifth, commencing Febru ary 1, isw;, and ending February 1, 100 ; giving six per cent, notes there for, secured by a mortgage on all real estate owned by the two firms in Alle gheny and Westmoreland counties. The individual indebtedness to be ex tended on the same terms. A commit tee of the creditors recommend the ac ceptance of these terms, and the nego tiations, it is presumed, will be ratified at an adjourned meetirg of creditors to be held to-morrow. These proceedings, as usually stated anout little affairs of honor, sie honorable to all the parties concerned. Johv I. St. John, the late Prohibi tion candidate for President, has pub lished a lengthy letter, denying in the most positive and absolute terms the charges made against him by the Re publican press, that he offered to with draw, or at lea-st to cond jet his canvass In the interest of Blaine, if the National Republican Committee would pay him f 2r,0W, and that the Committee having refused to do so. he was paid by the Democratic Committee to stay on the track and make it lively for Blaine and the tepublicans. J. S. Clarkson, editor of the Des Moines (Iowa) Remitter, and aljo a member of the Republican Na tional Committee, and J. B. McCnllagh, editoi of the St. Iouis Globe-Democrat, a Republican paper, started these charg ers ajtinst St. John, have persisted in them and have asserted that they could prove them, but xMtser of them has ever offered a spark of evidence in sup port of their allegations except a letter fiom Jim Legate, of Kansas, to one It. C. Ktrens, of St. Louis, which Legate says is "a cold-b!ooded forgery." St. .John has publicly invited Clarkson and .McCuIlaeh, two or three times, to pub lish any evidence they have in support of their allegations, and until th-y do o, all honorable men wll acquit him of the charges they have preferred against itim. T.TtE two houses of the Legislature of this State voted for U. . Senator on Te;liy afternoon. The vote wa hh toii.v.s : In thu SciiHte, Cameron, 2 ; Va. A. Wll.u:e, 1m ; Agnew and Em ry.

This bill will an swer its purpose in regard to the coun ties enumerated in it in which the offi ces of Register, Recorder and Clerk of the Orphans' Court are separate and distinct and not all three held by the same person, as is the case with Cam bria. As the bill stands in its present shape the salary of the Register, Re corder and Clerk of the Orphans' Court in this county would be $4,000, and we think that no man will contend that this is not too much. By the terms of the bill the salary of the Prothonotary and Clerk of the Sessions is fixed at $3,000, and the pay of the Register, &c, ought to be the same. We call the at tention of Senator Boggs to this matter now so that he can have a proviso in serted in the bill, if he concurs La our views, limiting the salary of the Regis ter, Recorder and Clerk of the Orphans' Court, when all three offices are held by the same person, to $3,0u0. The salary of $1,000 fixed by the bill for the Coro ner is exhoibitant beyond all measure, and it would be the right thing to limit that officer's compensation either to the fees which the law now prescribes for him, or else fix his salary at a reasona ble sum. When we can procure a print ed copy of the bill we may have some thing more to say about it. The Republican members of the New York Legislature met in caucus on last Monday evening, and nominated Wil liam M. Evarts, the wtll known New York lawyer, for U. S. Senator, the vote standing 61 for Evarts, 28 for Mor ton, and 3 for Depew. This is one of the few instances of late years in a portheru Stat? in wh'.ch the longest purse lias failed to win the Senatorial prize. Morton being now Minister to France, and a very rich man, was, of course, not present at Albany to manage his own case, but he had able and skilled representatives on the ground to take care of his interests, and if they were as liberally supplied with the sin ews of war as it was universally believed th?y would be, his defeat is most re markable and can alone be attributed to the worst kind of management. As Morton, however, had nothing to back him up except his money, it is a satis faction to know that a majority of the Republicans, even in a New York Leg islature, were proof against its seduc tive influence. Mr. Evarts was Attor ney General during a porton of Andrew Johnson's administration, and Secretary of State for a considerable portion of Hayes' fraudulent term. Johnson ap pointed him because he was his ablest counsel when he w.as impeached before the Senate by Thaddeus Stevens, Ben. Butler and a few other Republican fanatics, and Hayes piaced him at the head of his administration because he assisted in urging his case before the 8 to 7 Etectoral Commission, and aided in putting him into the office to which Samuel J. Tilden had beeu elected. Congressman Wm. D. Keli.ey, of Philadelphia, "Pig Iron Kelley," as he is familiarly called, in a conversation in Washington the other day about the present hard times and the assertion made in the House last Saturday by Iliscock, a Republican member from New Yoik, that they were precipitated upon the couutry by Cleveland's elec tion, said that had he been present in the House he would have taken issue with Hiscock, and told the House and the country that Cleveland's election had nothing to do with the matter. He said he had reached the age of three score and ten and was" too old to be swayed by political considerations. The trouble was deep seated and world wide, and Cleveland's election could have no connection with the over-production and consequent depression of business in Great Britain, Austiia and other European countries. "I should have inquired," said Judge Kelley, "what the election of Clevelaud had to do with the depreciation of the value of real estate in England some ninety per cent," He said that the introduction of machinery had revolutionized the world ; that the present social conditions are worn out and that we are on the eve of such a far-reachiug crisis as that which destroyed the feudal system and brought about the French revolution. He says be has no remedy to suggest. but holds that something must be done very quickly to avert impending disas ter. A iull has been introduced into the Stale Senate by Mr. Adams, of Phila delphia, for the infliction of corwral punishment upon all male persons con- i victed of wilfully beating their wives,! lashes, the puniahment to be indicted in the prison yard by the Sheriff or his deputy, ud iu Hie presence only of a physician and the prison keeper.

The Iowa State lieqisler says : Prof. A. L. Perry, of Williams College, has written an article for the Million, of this city, in which he declares the Re publican party dead asCjesar. Wegive his exact langnage : "It is as certain as anything in the future votes the other day than ever before in its history. The great Whin party cast more votes Id 1852 thau ever before in Its history, but for all that it never went into another Presidential contest, and its very name per ished before there was aDOthei Presidential contest. This is a very striking prediction. At first blush it seems extravgant, bat if we examine the Professor's reasons, as adduced in the article, we are not so much surprised at his conclusion. His vigorous English leaves no obscurity on the subject in hand. For instance, to begin with the course of the party in the recent campaign he says : Virtually, the only inducement offered to the people to vote the Republican ticket was that the party lu power would, if continued In pwer, zealously keep up and heap on the shoulders of the people the present bur dens of national taxation. And then in righteons indignation he exclaims : "What a boon for a great political party to offer to a sensitive and enterprising peo ple fettered in every economic action at home, worse taxed than any other nation in Christendom, already thrown off the ocean as far as shipping is concerned, excluded to their manufactures from every foreign port, and depressed and barrassed as never be fore In everv Industry and entereprise ! What a worn oat party thev must have been, tow empty of principles and oblivious of all obligations to the Million, to have) nothing to say of sound significance whatever as a ground for continuance of power, exeept 'We'll tax you, men and brethern, to the ut most of our power and to the very limit of our lives ! ' Sure enough. And then when Prof. Perry goes on to mention that all the great privilege corporations were mar shalled on that side, this feature culmi nating in the "golden dinner at Delmori ico's," we see the blessed tie that binds the whole combination together and makes a god of taxation. "In one word" he says, "the party has been shown by that dinner and its sequels to be aristocratic and plutocratic, and the Many started up against the Few. A thrill went thro' the land, and a will was born in a day to thwart the privilege ahd to stand for equality. Their rights and no more for the rich ; their rights and no less for the poor. No party in a free country could stand such an exhi- j bition as that was, and least of all the Republican party, whose drift towards privilege has been pronounced for twen ty years. It is doomed to die for its manifold sins agaiust equality. Let it die. And? echo answers, "Let ittlie." We have space only for an extract of that portion of the article relating events occurring since the election, which con firm Prof. Perry's horoscope. The par ty "knew," lie says, "that one defeat was deatti, and so it refused for a week to acknowledge defeat." In conclu sion : "They died very bard, and ac cordingly they died very dead. The whole country observed their unreason able contortions and made a careful note of the death rattle too long defer red." The Professor concludes with a pre diction that the Democratic party wiil be impelled by the force of circumstan ces and of public opinion to adopt a pol-. Icy of free trade, and thus it will ob tain a hold on the country that will last through several administrations. It is not often distinguished men of letters like Professor Terry venture such bold political predictions, and his words will be widely heeoed. " Inas much as Prof. Perry is as .well known, the world over, as any writer on public, questions iu America, and has beeu the college teacber of mmy of our leading public men. including Garfield, his pre dictions of the Republican party can not be rejected or hooted at. But then they won't fill the people with unmiti gated sadness. Ireland's Improved Condition. The Loudon coi respondent of the New Yoik World had an interview on Sun day with Mr. William O'Brien, editor of United Ireland, and a member of Parliament for Mallow, lu the county Cork. Iu answer to a question by the correspondent as to tho condition of the people in Ireland, Mr. O'Brien said: "Tue prospects ot the Irish peasantry were never belter than they aie al the present moment. There have beeu many winters before this wheu it has required desperate means to obtain food and fuel. Thank God, that is over. The I rsli ieople are now so situated that they can take Care of themselves and each other, and that is about ail they have ever asked. Come what may. inerb win ue no more famine m Ireland to appeal to the benevoi-nce of the rest I ot the world.

During the past week the debates and acts of Congress have touched a variety of subjects. The French Spoliation bill, whicb was first brought op eighty-three years ago, has passed both houses, and the Nicarauguan bill, which opens up the widest and giavest possibilities, has just been debated. Jefferson Davis and Tecumseh Sherman have both revisited the glimpses of the moon, and the Sen ate has voted to restore General Grant to his rank in the army. There was considerable surprise expressed at the fact that Democratic Senators voted with the Republicans to restore Gener al Grant, but more surprise will be ex pressed if the Democratic House sball allow the bill to become a law Human idolatry never reached a more supreme depth than in its worship of Grant. The country does not owe as much to him as it does to hundreds of others. But because he has lost his ill gotten fortune through stupidity and fiaud. and his wonderful health through prolonged dissipation, the Senate, a portion of the press, and a herd or mil lionaires dissolve into maudlin pity over an example of spurious greatness to which history furnishes no parallel. There are decided objections aga.ust restoring Gen. Grant to his rank in the army. The last time he held power as President or the United States, he used it to disperse Southern legislatures and to overawe opposition to the fraudulent seizure in the presidency by conspira tors of 1876. The Edmunds bill propo ses to place him only on the retired list of generals, bnt the Supreme Court has decided that the retired list is as much a part of the army as the active list, and the latter may at any time be called in to service. Suppose there should be another dis puted election, as in 1876, or like that whicb occurred only last November. How easy and bow natural (had anoth er than Arthur been in the White House) would it have been for Blaine to summon Grant, as senior general, to assume command. And with his r.ame and prestige, and the fanatacism of his idolators, the crime and shame of 187G might have been repeated. History nev er repeats itself, but folly and crime are perpetual. These dangers may be treat ed as trivialties, sine they are not immi nent, but it will be the part of folly to make them even remotely possible bv placing Graut again in the army. There is a disposition on the democratic side here iu both houses to do nothing at this short session except pass the ap propriation bills. The remaining days of the session are so few and the appr j priation bills still to be considered are so many that this postponement to another Congress of a'l legislation will be easy to accomplish. It is not among the impossibilities that there may be an extra session, and, for a number of reasons, it need not be deprecated. As it is now, more than a year commonly intervenes between the election ot Congressmen and the begin ning of their duties. This fact has fre quently been commented upon as opposed to the spirit of our laws, and objection able. The election and the seiviee should be brought nearer together, either by spring elect ions, or spring ses sion. There is certainly no reasou why of two men elected to co-ordinate public trusts at the same lime, one should en ter upou office on the fourth of March and the other on the first Monday of the following December, But apart from the abstract questions involved, it will scare!y be disputed by those at all familiar with '.lie work now thrust upon Congress, that its ordinary sessions are of inadequate length to en able it to cope with its legitimate busi ness. It is true that much time is now wasted, and that more would be if the sessions were longer, but that does not argue that Congress should not give ilself a fair chance to do ils woik. The President's social duties have kept him busy during the past week, and are likely to employ his evenings for some time to come. He has aban doned all hope of visiting the New Oi leans Exposition in an official capacity, and has so notified the board ot mana gers. He expects, however, to make a short visit to the Exposition after the fourth of March, and thtn, of course, he will go as a private citizen. He had hoped to attend the Exposition during the month of February, and had conse quently refrained from extending his engagements into that month K- Business Depression and Poli tics. It is surprising that the Repub licans have waited so long to proclaim that the present general depression in business is attributabre to their defeat at the recent election. The cry was raised on Saturday in Congress when Mr. Hoar declared that the business troubles of the cou-itry were mainly due to distrust of the Dem ocratic parly. He might, just as truly say that dis trust of the Democratic party caused the wind to blow fiftv miles an hour the other day, or cansed the destruction of a Long Island factory by lightning in Jannar. Thf business troubles of the country began long before the election of a Democratic President, and when there was every prospect of a coiitinn-tnc of Republican power. They originated in causes with which political parties liHve nothing to do, and they will ter minate without regard to political influ ences. The attempt to make the Democrats responsible for the existing depression in business is demagogism pure and sim ple. X. Y. Sua.

Do lin was suspected, tried and convicted on circumstantial evidence, and sentenced to be hanged. The Supreme Court remanded the case, no motive being shown, and Dolin was again convicted, and the case was to come up next week. On Monday a dying confession was received from a man in Ala bam a, acknowledging the murder and the theft of a roll of money missed at that time. Dolin Is 82 years old.
