Antiquity of Corruption. Taking all the corrupt practices ti men in high places, in this country, the readers of the KKroirrrit might suppose that such things were not so "of old but we find that in all ages there were bribers and bribe-takers too, though the instances of that vi cious habit are nut as numerous. Ju dasJUxtk a bribe, aud for tbe oultry sum of about thirteen dollars, betrayed his Lord and master. That case of bribery dates back Some eighteen hun dred years, and shows that in the days of Christ money was all powerful, and was used, as it is by the politicians and placi-*cekers of to-day, for corrupt purposes. Passing over bribery and corruption that might he cited since the days f the traitor Judas Iscariot, we find a record of still greater anti quity dating back to I*7 years before Christ: Jason, by corrupting king An tiochus obtained tbe eftice of high priest—a fit subject, fiir such u pi tion indeed, ebt-iuing it bv a corrup tion fund. The "plum" held out by Jason to Autiocbus, waa a promise of three hundred and three score talents of silver, of another revenue eighty talents, and to obtain a certain license from the king, one hundred and fifty more—just like our governors and presidents, uow-a-days, are bought to sign their names to acts granting spe cial privileges, and sell out their ap pointments. Had the system of voting, in vogue with us, been one of the modes of elec ting officers in the days of the ancients, we have uo doubt tbey would have •hown themselves as expert iu repeat ing and ballot-box stuffing as in the 4th senatorial district of Philadelphia. We see they understood the power of money, and knew bow to use it as a corruption fuud. Christ certainly was net a present taker; for when satan took him upon an high mountain aud promised to make him a present of all the kingdoms that could bo viewed from that elevation, he felt highly in sulted at the offer, and said, "get thee hence, satan." This was au offer of a present considerably more than a cor ner lot, aud which some men in high places now would not treat with that just scorn felt by the Master when sa tan tempted him, and we think this chapter from the New Testament Aould have a pcrmaueut place upon ! walls of the white house, where it would always be in the eye of our pres- , idents, on account of the great lesson t it teaches. 1 Portlaud, March 11.—Mrs. Chap aan, of Boston liny, strangled her in fant child on the 4th of March, while in a fit of religious iusanity.

A* nobody will buy these bonds under such conditions, the money caunot be raised to complete the road, and hence the work will be abandoned, and the arnout already spent by the people of Pennuvulley. will have been spent for nothing, thus swamping the stock and killing the the road to boot 6th. The previao, instead of put ting the stockholder's bond* on equa fooling with bond* held by nun flock holders, make* us accept them at par while outside parties may buy iheiu at 40 or 50 cents on the dollar, tak ing it fur granted that this uoiiseiisi rai proviso wen- practicable. 7lh. Stockholder's mortgages don't draw interest, by this absurd proviso, until twenty mi es of the road are in running order, while outside parties ran purchase the balance ot the bunds at a great discount, and draw interest from date. Blli. As stockholders our [KO| J* have a voice ill the elections and g\- ttrt'ineni of the mad ; if they change Ie ami Income bondholders, then all th 5. rights and privilege* iu stockholder lf art- forfeited, of course. Are our |eti e pie prepare)l for this ? p.

O Lord, what legislation ! are the fools not all dead yet, or has demo- L gogueism the sway? We now would . not object to "ventilating" the insane 1 asylum a little even at a cost of $50,- 000, for we are sure, that by giving some of its idiotic a little fresh air, and putting them in the legislature, they would be quite an improve ment upon some who a-e tryiu-' to legislate for the people.
