The Constitutional Convention.
The convention (br revising the
constitution of this state, will meet in
a few days. The people look to that
body for such reforms aa will correct
the abuses they have been subject to
by bad legislation and the intrigues of
politicians and men in high places.
The legislature must have a curb—
the people of this commonwealth are
skinned and fleeced by the fraud
which sits at Harriaburg every winter
called the legislature, to legislate for
tho people's goo J. It must bo shorn
of all the room it has for licentious
ness. Take the same number of men
from our penitentiaries, ami let them
do our legislating, and we would have
just as much done for the public weal
as we have received at the hands of
our state legislaturee, for the past ten
or fifteen years. Take two-thirds of
• the men who each winter fill tho
chairs as senators and members of the
house, and put tbem into the eastern
penitentiary, and there would be no
injustice done, in fact, they would be
more properly where they belong than
aotne who now fill the cells,
loose an equal number of convicta,
and the people in general would have
less to suffer, and be all the richer, for
where one convict has robbed an indi
vidual of one dollar, our legislative
pinchers and rooalere have robbed the
people of thousands.
Private legislation and jobs must be
prohibited by the new constitution.
The new constitution should pre
scribe an oath for members of the leg
islature, by which they swear to re
ceive no compensation, directly or in
directly, for the support of any meas
ure or for voting for or against any
bill before that body.
The power of Committees to withhold
and kill bills, in spite of a major
ity, she aid be prohibited. The re
peal of the infamous Philadelphia
building commission bill, after passing
the senate, was choked and killed
by hired members in the boose com
mittee, which never let it see daylight
This has been the fate of hundreds of
just bills. In the committees is
where the most villainy is committed,
and where the pinchers and roosters
have their field.
Every officer connected with the
.Mate government, from governor
down, should be required to take an
oath similar to the aboTe.
We want something that will ensure
fair elections. If the convention can
offer a plan by which frauds, repeat
ing, and ballot box stuffing can be pre
vented, that, of itsself, would be worth
all the cost, of the comming togeth
er of the convention. Let a residence
of at least three months in a. district,
be required, before a man can vote ;
this would prevent colonising. Let
all attempts at ballot-box stuffing and
other fraudulent modes of defeating the
will of the people, be made punish
able by heavy .fines, imprisonment, dis
franchisement. and disqualification
from holding any office.
Let it be provided that the legisla
ture meet only once in two years, and
then for a period of not more than
sixty days, unkm an, extra session is
called by the governor, in which extra
session no measure shall be legislated
upon, except such for whkfo the ex
tra session shall have been called.
These are p few of the many needed
reforms. Let us see what will be
done by the convention.
Woodhull A Claffliu's Weekly af
ter a short suspension, has again made
is appearance. The issue that reached
oar office a few days ago, is what may
be termed "rough"—rough on Henry
Ward fieecher—and "rougher" still
for the ladies—Mrs. Victoria Wood
hull and Tennie Claffiin — if ladies
they be—who publish such indecent
stories, as the Weekly has about Beech
er being too intimate with Mrs. Theo
dore Tilton. We doubt the whole
thing, and think that the women pub
publishers manufacture the story
against Beecher, in order to gain no
toriety for themselves and their pa
per.
If the Beecber-Tiltoa scandal is
true, it is indecent and criminal, to
print it in the obscene manner in
which those women have it in their
paper. No woman who has any respect
for herself, or her sex, will father such
stuff, and it is about time that the
grand-jury of New York pronounce
Woodhull & Ciafflin's Weekly a nui
.saoce. The shameless advocacy of
free-love, put out in the most vulgar
and indecent manner, as we find it in
the issue referred too, warrants the sup
pression of the paper, as an indecent
publication, and a decent regard for
society and a purer literature demand
its suppression.
How it was Done.
L. D. Shoemaker, and several other
prominent Radicals, in and abont
Wilkesbarre, Luzerne county, were ar
rested after tbo late electioo, charged
with "bribery and corruption," in re
lation to the contest. That fact was
published in the Democratic State pa
pen, but treated by "Ring" journals
as a mere election rumor, a dodge of
the beaten party to account for their
overthrow. At the same time it was
predicted that the matter would not
be pushed to an examination, oaing
to a want of evidence to substantiate
the allegations.
IBut the "Ring" was mistaken. The
charges were pushed with vigor and
determination, and evidence of a most
damaging character submitted against
Mr. Shoemaker. Patrick Cordornn,
a Judge of election# in the Twelfth
ward of the city of Sorsnton, awore
that "previous to the election he #aw
Mr. Shoemaker, and told him, he, Cor
coran, was Judge and Michael Judge
was Inspector of Elections. Shoema
ker then asked hew many votes could
be polled, and we said that there were
| not more than six or seven Republi
can votes in the district He said that
he had two agents appointed to settle
up his election business. Mr. Shoe
maker said that ho was a candidate
for Congress at that election. He said
he was surprised that some of his
agents had not aeon us before. We
had a talk with 0. M. Miller, Recei
ver of Taxes, aud John Stewart. 1 hey
told us to go and see Mr. Shoemaker
ourselves. We said about 250 voles
would be polled in our district. He
asked if we would not give him a ma
jority then. I told him we could give
no majority, perhaps could balance
the vote. Mr. Shoemaker there at
that time offered each of us #lO, aud
•aid we could get some more before
election, for the purpose of defraying
exneuscs. I saw the money iu Shoe
maker's hands. He took it out of his
pocket-book. It was after he knew
we were election officers. The uexl
thing he said that if we took any of
the monev not to change atv of it in
Wilkesha'rre, or it would be knowu by
his own bank. John Stewart, of
Lackawauua towuship, was at my
house a few days before election, aud
agreed to give Michale Judge and
myself, #175, if we would Shoe
maker a majority iu the Third district
of the Twelfth ward. We said we
could not give him a majority, but we
would try to balance the vote. He
■aid Mat. Miller would be around the
night before the election and pay some
of the money. 1 did not see Mat.
Miller. Judge and 1 did sit on the
election board. Judge, the luspector
named by Corcoran, corroborated iu
full the above statement, and strength
ened it by some fresh and strong de
tails, fastening the charge distinctly
upon Mr. Shoemaker. Mr. Eckhart
testified on the same investigation, that
he was introduced to a man who said
he was acting as Shoemaker's agent,
and was authorized to offer three dol
lars for votes for Shoemaker for Con
gress, and three dollars and a half for
rotes for Hartranft. Other witnesses
Sve evidence to the same general ef
t, showing that m ney wss freely
offered for votes in Scran ton by per
eons working for Shoemaker's election.
Corcoran also swore that Shoemaker
at the first interview said : "Couldn't
manage to balance the votes in
counting IT® tickets f' Stewart said
we could fix the * n counting
them and give a majority . r
maker as large as we wanted to. *
told Stewart that it would look very
badly to give Shoemaker a majority
where there were but six or seveu Re
publicans votes."
Hugh Mara shot Revenue'lnspecl

terest of the Whisker Ring. Pardon
ed for this by Gov. (xeary, he shot Al
derman McMullen. lie belongs to
the Pennsylvania Ring, just as Hag
gartv, the Voucher Thief, belongs to
the New-York Ring. We said, be
fore the October election, that the
story of Pennsylvania pardons would
be incomplete without the pardon of
Mara, the political assassin. But Mr-
Swope, District-Attorney and servant
of the Ring, did better; he brought
Mara into court, and by a series of ad
roit tricks with the law, sent forth this
man, who bears the blood of two half
accomplished murders on his hands,
a freeman and a citisen. Yerkcs is
pardoned, Mara is cleared of crime,
and Hart ran ft lives —a prosperous
gentleman. Is there anv such thing
aa law or justice left in Pennsylvania?
Why should we ask ? Simon Came

Death of Mrs. Horace Greeley.
(First.Dispatch.)
New York. Oct. 30.—The wife of
Horace Greeley died at four o'clock
this morning.
(Second Dispatch. j
New York, OA 30.—The death of
Mrs, Greeley took place at the resi
dence of Mr. Alvin Johnson. Yester-
day evening her symptous inspired
some faint hopes of her recovery, but
during the night she had two chills,
after which she was very easy until 4
o'clock, when she passed peacefully
away. The funeral will take place
from Dr. Chapin'e church, at 12 o'-
clock on Friday.
Death of Mrs. Greeley.
(N. Y. Express.)
The death of Mrs. Qreeley, while it
is a great shock to her many friends,
and a deep sorrow to all her husband's
friends, is also a release from severe
bodily suffering. The community
sympathizes sincerely in this affliction
not excepting most of those who differ
from Mr. Greeley in politics; bat
hardly those, we fear, who for months
daring bis wife's illness have poured
ont such a torrent of abuses upon bis
bead. We may at least hope that so
great a domestic calamity for the few
days left of the canvass abridge some
of the personal asperities which this
election, above most others, seems to
call forth. Tjke grave, from which DO
man escapes, may aim prgll stop the
voice of calumny and open thn hearts
of all to the conviction that more men
in this world mean well than do ill,
and though this good intention is not
enough to satisfy the demands of ex
treme justice, it at least ill becomes
the least perfect to be harsh judges of
the dead or their survivors. We know
little of Mrs. Greeley's life, but she
was the beloved wife of oa eminent
public mas, and the beloved mother
of daughters who have watered by her
bedside through long months of pain
ful illness and until release came in the
great sussnon* of the grave. In such
griefs often the survivor dies, while
those who have ceased to liyp on earth
find releaae from paia here and joy
hereafter.
The maiden name of the dece&tfd
ras Miss Miry G. Cheney, and her
marriage with Mr. Greeiev was an
nounced aa follows in the New York
er, of July 16,1836:
"In Immauuel Church, Warrenton
| N. C., on Tuesday morning, sth inst.,
!br Rev. Wm, Norwood, Mr. Horace
Greelev, editor of the New Yorker, to
Miss Mary G. Cheney, of Warrenton,
formerly of this eity."
The acquaintance between the par
ties commenced at the Graham House,
New York, and when the lady, who
was by profession a teacher, had taken
an engagement in North Carolina, it
was carried on by correspondence with
the happy result stated.
Mr. Greeley thus gives a pleasant
description of the manner in which his
wife managedJier domestic economy.
"My wife, wiioaa acquaintance" I
made at the Graham House, and who
was long a more faithful, consistent
disciple than I was, in our years of ex
treme poverty kept her bouse in strict
accordance with her convictions, never
even deigning an explanation to her
friends and relatives who from time to 1
time visited and temporarily sojourned I
with u; and as politeness usually re I
pressed complaint or inquiry oil their
part, their first experiences of a regl
meti which dispensed with all they
|deemed most appetising could hardly
ibe observed withont a smile. Usual
ly a day, or at most two, of beans and
potatoes, boild rice, puddings, bread
and butter, with no condiment but salt,
and never a pickle was all they could
J abide; so, bidding her a kind adue,
each in turn departed to reek elsewhere
; a more cougvnial hospitality."

Coufe&iiou of a Murderer
The Brwokville Jetfersoniau gives a
lengthy description of the arrest on
Sumi*" couleased mur-;
dererand horse foamed Hiram
Daley. The culprit states u.-! ,n lh ®|
year 1867, he was one ol the party whoi
murdered a man named Sproul, in
Washington, Washington county, Pa. j
that they murdered him for his money
aud procured $43, and that they tied
his wife to a bed to prevent her from]
raising au alarm. Upon the strength
of thie confession, Esq Steiuer com
mitted him to jail.
Sheriff M'Pherson also telegraphed!
to the Sheriff of Washington county, 1
informing him of the confession of
Daley, in regard to the murder of
Sproul, and asking for some informa
tion.
The*e telegrams received confirm
Daley's statement, and there is no
doubt that the mystery which has
clung to a foul murder for the past five
years will now be completely cleared
up.

ascribe too much honor to the teachtri fori
their disinterested philanthropy, In train- 01
ing tho young almost gratis, since with n
them it i* not so much a matter of flee 'j]
choice a* imposition.
Tho faithful teat Uor, a* a incmher of a *<
profession, work* harder th.to person* of *
any other profession, yet hi* salary i the ",
lowest of all. The teacher's work Is no lest {i
imporiant than that of tho minister.
lie mould* the mind* of the young- makes
Impression* which will not be effaced
while life remain* and give* tendencies to *
the soul which it ohall bear with It through |
eternity. The minister addresses himself r
to older tiiiuds which are icldoiu changed t
after being once tlrmly settled In acer- •
tain channel. A minute's talk, a look or t
a smile ha* more influence over a child |
than an hour'* preaching to gray-hair*. t
Let u* see, for a moment, what the salary '
ef a teacher of Fennsvallsy and Urusbval- *
ley amount* to. On sn areisgo, he re- *
eciv * about thirty-Ave dollar* a month, not i
r more. Now, deducting lor boarding 1
about ten dollar* a uiontb there are left t
twenty-flva dollars. For Ave months it •
! would run up to tha magnificent sum ol '
I one hundred and twenty-Aye dollar*. J
Fifteen dollar* of thi* sum, at tho loweet ]
estimate, it will require to defray county f
Institute expense*, If one I* sufficiently in-
. spired professionally to attend The lit- j
lie utorsel that Is left L to keep him in de- i
i cent clothing, defray etpense* incurred in *
preparing himself professionally and en- J
able him to make a respectable appear-
aiice in refined society, lteckoning one t
hundred and twenty-five dollars a year a '
teacher would have a little over ten dol- ,
lars a month or thirty-three cent* a day, a I
sum not quite sufficient to pay hi* own '
boarding le say nothing of clothing or fmu- '
ily expense* if he should have tlm tuisfor ,
' tune to be married. Hut, lays some one,
he uemplojypl only five month* in teach- (
i ing and during the rest of the year he ran ,
' work mi the rail-road or chop wood. True, i
and teachers, in general, do not feel them- '
, selves above werk{ some sr# excellent (
t workmen, but rail-road digging and wood
' chopping are not calculated to make bright >
j ornament* of the profession of teaching,
t The teacher that ha* to work on a farm or (
* at ati ade seven month* of the year to keep.
j himself from starving, I# not fit to leach
f the other five months, lie cannot prepare
c himself for hi* profession, nor is there any'
'' inducement for him to do so. Why do 1
. not minister* work during two-thirds of
i the year to maintain themselves and
- preach the rest of the lime J It is not be
* cause they cannot work, but, by auch an
!l arrangement, it is not likely that they
would accomplish much in the line of
County Supt's get so much a"
|l!year, no matter whether they devote all,
s or only part, of their time to the interest*
Hof the schools, If they p;epar for the
_ i ministry or the bar during their term of of-'
fice, or make money by some other bui-
I. nee*, there is nothing said about it Ido
*. not w i*h to say that this is proper or im
proper, but why should not the teacher,
b who after all does the real and important
u pari of tha work, be treated with more
J consideration ? But, It is said, a teacher
must.not expect his reward in the shape of
i- dollar* and cent*. The consciousness of
having been a benefactor to hi* fellow be
y ings in freeing them from the bond* of ig
i, noruace and elevating them to a higher
! *phere, and the gratitude and veneration;
with which he will in future he regarded
by hi* pupiln -these are to be his reward.
' 1 would detract nothing from this com pen
'ration; especially, since it is about all a
I teacher tcwvjves, he should make the most
of It Glory ha HobU Uiiug, even for a
teacher if he die* early, but If Is a very frai;
staff to support old age.
Teaching does not par. No man can af
I ford to stiend from iva hundred to a thou
sand dollars or UfOtf tv £•*,*£*'* himself for
• the profession and revive s jcfc poo* •>-
jootupenso. This accounts for so many
poor teachers, and until people are willing
to pay teste*. children will be taught
by boys and girl# a# hemto^irw.
Thar# is another circum*xance to bich
it U vail to pal) fh e attention pf director*
oeesukmaily. 1 mean the mo 4* of grading
islaries which preraila in some township*,
j Directors seem to lay considerable stress
on systematic uniformity in their business
transactions lupsriuous complica
tions a) fixing the wage* *
teachers and the grade of his
certiorate are carefully a>-udad- Pry|>a
bly, they base their action on the good old
principla that "all men are created equal,'
and of course, the pay of teachers should
be equal too, no matter how unequal their
senicaa. ft is a principle that must com
mend itaqlf favorpbiy to young boys who
contemplate entering fh profosiion, also,
to ttranded doctors, lawyers, and mimstm
who feel like turning their bands to tobocl
keeping. Bui it is a principla not so much
admired by esperleneed loaehsrs who
have spent much time and money to pre
pare themselves for this work. They are
ucnbaritabla enough to think that a good
workman it entitled to better pay than an
nefllcient one. The thing puts ono in
mind of the story of Procuttet, who tied his
victim upon an iron bed, and as the case 1
required, oither stretched out or cut off
their legs to accomodate them to its
length.
But, in order that oblivion may perform
its kindly office, I will not mention the fact
that a certain board oi directors not a bun- ;
drod mile* from here, passed an ordinance j
in tha plenitude of tbler wisdom, that /- j
M4iU teachers shall receive, during the 1
coming term, the sum oftwentr-aix dollar*
per month for teaching, whereaa the male
teacher* irom thirty to thirty-nine. Tho
ralary of the male wa< fixed according to
the grade of the certificate, that of the fe
male* not according to qualification*, but
prejudice.
