Last week's local option election hav
ing resulted rather strongly in freer of
licsnMi. in tbe larger countioo of the
state, we nre inclined to think tbnt
the loonl option net will not bars
toore tb*" one year for its age before
there is n modification or repeal of it,
which will bring us back again to
•unething like tbe old liesoss system.
Tbe asen interested in tbe liquor trade
will not be found sleeping, and we ex
pect to find tbem carrying to
Harrisburg next winter, such "weigh
ty N arguments, as will secure a ma
jority. Tbe liquor men will spend
money and work like bearers to get a
modification of tbe ecC And money
is alKpoweribl. Tbe anU-liosnet men
cannot, and would not if they wuid,
raise any thing like tbe fund which
tbe liqntr dealers can raise to aid
tbem in theirjdans. Hence we look
for a modification of some kind. The
attempt would bare been made tbis
winter and it would bate euoceeded.
but tbe first half dosea counties spoke
so beasiiy against license that oorleg.
ialators did not dare attempt it in the
fbee of such n rote. But now tbe
larger counties of tbe south east with
their endorsement of license, will em
bolden such as feel inclined te listen
to argusoeots as are betimes used st
Harrisburg, to make a fellow "see it."
80 just look out for a change next
winter. Local option is not destined
to ootlire its three years—tbnt is our
opinion. Temperance men will not
spend money freely in n matter in
which they bare no direct pecuniary
interest It is so unnatural. Tbe
liquor men will do this, because with
them tbe matter is n profitable one,
and when one has to fight against
money—particularly in our legisla
tes balls—it is always tbe biggest
pile tbnt wins.

The lower and Maters oouotiea
which voted upon local option, last
Friday, west strongly is fcvor of li
cense. Then is a gnat deal of lager
aad ale manufactured down there, and
these hare become a favorite beverage
with the people of Lancaster, Lebigb,
Berks, Lebanon, Ac., and they do not
feel like denying themselves their fa
vorite drink, and local option strikes
as directly at those liqnors as it does
at whiskey aad brandy. Then we
have the result in Pittsburg aad Alle
gheny, where a great deal of capital
is invented in the manufacture of "old
Moaongebela " and local option meets
with no favor there. Allegheny goes
strongly for license. The contest there
between the friends of license and no
lioeose, was a very lively one—there
was a regular eampaiga of it, with
meetings, speeches, Ac., similar to the
most bested political campaign, aad
the liquor men have carried the day.
Grant baa re-appointed brother-in
law Casey collector of the port of New
Orleans. This Casey has been noto
riously corrupt daring his former
term, and the better portion of the
radicals were, aad still, are ashamed
of him, hut it don't matter, nepotism
will continue, and the Freundchafi
most be provided for.
Judge Ricbardeoa, of Illinois, has
been appointed Secretary of tbe Treas
ury in the place of Mr. Bontwell, who
was last week elected U. S. Senator.
The Williameport Register, we aee,
thanks Mr. Singerly for copies of the
constitutional debates. That's queer,
when we happen to think that Mr.
Singerly gets to many thousand dol
lars for printing thorn, and besides it
is not through his favor, but by an
throity of the convention that the
Register gate the debates. Mr. Sin
gerly deserves no thanks whatever, he
gets well paid for his job, aad the
Register had better recall its thanks.
The constitutional convention baa
before it a proposition to require 300
square miles and 18,000 population in
the erection of new counties, also, to
prohibit the liquor business bj consti
tutional enactment.
The propositions brought forward
in that body are almost numberless,
and many are hardly worth reading
and receive very little attention at the
hands of the convention. We do not
deem it worth while to publish more
than such as are actually passed, as
likely to pass, or such as are of graver
importance.
James Bowkes, a prominent radi
cal politician of Philadelphia, hung
himself in bis place of business on the
morning of the 22nd. To some other
mdical leaders it might fittingly be
mid, "go and do likewise. 1 '
Epizootic is now raging in northern
Arizona and southern California.
Slavery has been abolished in Par
-10 Biol.
The appropriation* made bv con-!
graaa to carry on the government, are |
25 million* dollar* larger than lat
year. What doe* thi* mean in the
face of the prontiaad economy and re
duction of expenditure*? Inatead of
a decreaae we are treated to an mor
mon* increase of expenditure*. The
rreaideot'a salary ha* been doublet!,
the congreaamen have increased their
pay, and a hundred other *uoh little
leak* tell where the additional little
matter of 26 million* l swallowed up.
A few leaaona on economy and pro
feasions in the same line, from some of
our radicals would be ao refreshing
jut now.
Exempting from taxation cemetery
associations, odd fellows halls, mwon
ic hall*, Ac., all owned by individual*
formed into stock-corn pan its, aud iu
which they bare their profits on stock,
has been tbe rage, in this state for
rears. The amount of properly thus
exempted may amount to several mil
lion dollars iu tbis state, and tbe leg
islature is continually pestered with
nsw applicant* for special acts, to ex
smptcertain property from taxation not
withstanding it is as much a source of
profit as forming, manufacturing or
lumbering; tbie ie all wrong—all
property and all men ought to be
made bear their equal share of taxa
tion. Nona should be exempt We
are pleased to notice tbnt our represen
ts tire, Mr. Orris, has kept a sharp
aye upon that kind of legislation, and
has objected to erery bill—and they
were many—that has thus far been
presented. He deeerret the thanks of
•eery taxpayer in tbe state for killing
tbis "breed of cats."
Qor. Hsrtranft has vetoed the bill
appropriating $75,000 for the suffer
ere by tbe Somerset fire. We think
tbe Governor did right, for it would
soon get to be a common thing to
bare an appropriation for every fire
that occurs within tbe state.
Congress Pay
There are, sajs the PitUburg Poet,
366 members of the two Houses of
Congress who are now paid $2,820,000
for their valuable services. The ef
fort left aeaaiou was to make it $3,-
760,000, but the affair was com pro
mised by the old-fashioned way of
"splitting the difference" between that
sum and the old pav of $1,870,000, by
adding enough to bring it up to the
first named amount Some of these
high-priced gentlemen complain that
it ought to have been as high as the
highest sum named above, and ex
press the idea that double that amount
would be about the proper thing.
They allege that a member should
take his family with him to Washing
ton, and that a bed room and parlor
with boarding cannot be obtained for-
Uaa than sls per day. A western pa
per thinks it would be well for the
government to build a large Hotel at
Washington with room for each mem
ber, allowing an average of four to
each family. It estimates ths cost of
the building at about one half the
yearly pay of the members. In the
basement there could be a restaurant
at which meals could be furnished at
fair prices, or sent to the family rooms
at a slightly increased price. All this
could be done at a yearly cost of sl,-
500,000, and each member could be
paid SI,OOO for spending money each
session.
Really, when only a few years since
they raised their salaries from $8 per
day to $5,000 per session, end now to
$7,500, and many talk of making it
SIO,OOO, it is tiros to see whether the
treasury cannot be protected from the
in-roads of these loyal and patriotic
gentlemen, not one in ten of whom ev
er earned bnlf as much as tbs old sal
ary, beforwtbsy assumed their seats
in Congress. Government feeds,
clothes, and lodges the Cadets at An
napolis and West Point, wbv not try
it on ths Congressmen at Washing
ton.
Benator Bayard, of Delaware, in a
very vigorous speech on the Louisana
question, which has been published in
pamphlet, made thia apt retort on the
majority in tbe Senate:
Your political party has bad in
tbeee ten years unlimited control
of every branch of tbe Federal gov
ernment. Congress has made and un
made tbe State governments in the
South at will, and there is no element
of misgovern men t for which your par
ty majority are not responsible. The
mingled web of ignorance and fraud,
of corruption and venality, of rapacity
and crime, in whoee meshes those un
happy communities are vainly strugg
ling, was woven by your bands alone.
And when you cannot untie it, you
call in tbe sword to cut it.
Such baa been since tbe war cloeed
tbe bistorp of your rule ; such it will
continue to be'until the whole basis of
your rule is changed, and you cease to
sustain ignorance and vice in tbeir
contest with tbe virtoe and intelligence
of tboee communities.

[From the Button Dally Hlokn.J
A correspondent—whose statement
Una siuct been verified--writitig froui
one of the miuirg settlement* on the
shore* of Lake Superior, say* that the
remain* of a conideral>le number of
ancient copper iuine have lately l*cii
diecovered on Isle Royal, In Thunder
Bay, on the northern border of the
lake, which exhibit undoubted evi*
dcnce of having bean worked by a
race of nteu long since extinct, and of
whom we ponucM uo kuowlelge save
that left behiud by such trace* a* are
now being brought to view. Shafts
of considerable depth, filled aud chock*
ed with the accumulated debris of
ages, have been opeiivd, aud in |>eiio
trating to a depth of sixty feet tools
of wonderful worktuaiulup have been
discovered together with charcoal re
mains, which mark the point where
skilled artisans formed, from copper,
tools whose temper aud durability
would astonish the iugeuious tuakent
of the present day. Hammers and
chisel* seem to have been the priori*
pal implements for working the tniue,
which, together with the tire, reduced
the ore to a condition which rendered its
removal in detail easily accomplished.
Finely tempered knife-blades have
been picked out of the pit, aud grauile
hammers of such site as to require the
strength of no ordiuary man to wield
succeealully.
These discoveries, wonderful as
they are, do not slaud alone, nor do
they preeent any new facts in relation
to the people who formerly inhabit*
ed thia continent. They simply go to
strengthen the evidence that, centu
ries before the written history of
America, powerful aud civilised com
munities occupied every portion of its
domain, who, disappearing, left behind
them proots of their progress in the
arts aud scieucesand their iudubitahle
skill in architecture. For three thou
sand miles along the valleys of our
great western rivers traces of towns
and cities occur at intervals, together
with the remains of large fortified en
campments, which show, from their
position and arrangement, that their
builders were no mean adepts in the
art of warfare. Vaat tumult, with
the buried in a sitting poeture, and at
their feet shells unknown to this con
tinent, exist by the hundred in the
Ohio and Miasipppi valleys. In the
dense Yucatan forests there are ruins
of temples and palaces,.resemblingjin
solidity of construction, niassivenes* of
materials, general design and execu
tion, the aucieut remains of the old
Egyptian dynasties. Yet neither in
Western America nor in Yucatan ex
isU the faintest tradition as to that
mysterious race which has left behiud
it the imperishable record of its geni
ous and* civilization. We can do
nothing but conjecture. Pursue our
investigations as we may, we are still
lsd back to the starting point with no
more definite knowledge than when
we set out. The thread is lost, never
to be recovered.
It is a singular fact that, thus far,
there has uever been discovered upon
any of the ruins, or in connection with
the tools and war implements men
tioned, any mark, letter or trace,
wnereon any clue, either to the origin,
customs or language of this mysteri
ous race, might be caught or gathered
up. In Europe the gradual process
of development from a half savage
state to the high culture of the pres
ent d*y can be traced, stage by stage,
and every distinct era marked by a
definite date. But here ths links
thst bound one generation to another
bsve been abruptly severed, and lbs
nflbud-builders of tbs Ohio, the archi
tects of Copan and Palenque, and the
copper-workers on ths shares of Lake
Superior alike lie beyond the reach of
(hs historian and the speculations of
the archaeologist. The relics they
have left behind tbem only serve to
excite the conjectures of the curious
and ths investigations of the scientific.
Possibly, in some yet undiscovered
ruin or tomb, the key msy be found
to the problem which now puzzles the
worid ; but then it is only a possibil
ity. There is little doubt that tbs
mystery will remain a mystery uutil
ths great day when the sea shall give
up its dead and the past be stretched
before us like a scroll.
A Kerosene Horror.
Grand Rapids, Micb., March 11.—
In the towuship of Cascade, Kent
county, last Monday night, Mrs. M.
G. Smith was sitting up doing some
work, her husband and son having
gone to bed, when a kerosene lamp
exploded, envelopiug tbe unfortunate
woman in flames. With a shriek of
terror she awakened her husband and
rushed out of the bouse, followed by
ber husband. Mr. Smith, with his
bands and snow, endeavored to extin
guish the flames, but did not succeed
until tbe clothing of bis wife was
burned completely off, and ber body
so badly burned that she caunot live.
Mr. Smith was so badly burned that
he will be a cripple for life, and it is
feared totally blind.
While this heartrending scene was
going on outside, the boy, a lad about
14 years old, and the house were for
gotten. The burning oil set the bouse
on fire, and it and tbe sleeping boy
were consumed.
THE CALDWELL CASK.
Washington, March 21.—1t having he

that the Morton resolution in the Caldwell
case would fail by a large majority, Mr.
Ferry, of Connecticut, to-day offered an
amendment to it, to strike eut all after tho
word resolved, and insert that Caldwell he
expelled. If this is adopted, and there is
no douht it will be, the next vote will be en
the expulsion.
It is expected that on the question of ex
pulsion several more days will he consum
ed. Many of tbe senators are getting very
tired, and are anxious to get away.

the Court of Niti Priut in Philadelphia on
Wednesday 19th, Judge William* pretid
ing. A* it i* of great intereet te banker*
and the public generally throughout the
State, we furnith the following tynopei* :
It wae an action to recover for loet sustained
byj,laintiff by the robbery of thi* bank on
the night of February 2, 1871. The plain
tiff*, who reeidee at No. 91$ Franklin etreet
had been a depoeitor in the bank far thirty
years. With the permission of the cashier
ha had left bond* in the bank for eafs
keeping, they being placed in a tin boi
marked with hie name on the end, and
locked up in a vault, ead he paid nothing
for the privilege, neither did he ever
inform the cashier of the conteat* of the
bos.
On the 17th of January, he last saw the
bond* in the bos ; there were thirty United
States 6-'A) bonds of f 1,000 lis cut off ike
coupons, locked the box, replaced it in the
vault; put the key into bis pocket, aad
walked off. He next tha morning
after the robbery, when it was lying on
the floor, broken and empty. The ground
upon which he sought to recover wns that
the bank officers did not use due diligence
to secure the place against the robbery.
On Monday, at noon, Judge Williams
cbsrged the jury, instructing them that if
the robbery resulted from the aegl igence
of the watchman, the bank was not respon
sible. This charge was supposed to be fa
vorable to tho bank. After remaining out
two days and nights, tha jury on Wedaea
day returned n verdict for plaidtiff for 9*7-

THE APPORTIONMENT BILL
The ruthlesaness with which the radical
majority in the legislalure are resolved to
exert a political power acheired mainly by
fraud at the ballot box i* ahown in ihc con
gressional apportionment bill which ha*
been forged in the committee in the house.
Lait year an apportionment that wai in the
main juat and equitable, giving equal rep*
resents lion to ell parte of the common*
wealth, wax aecured by the demecraU of
the senate, but waa defeated by a cembi* i
nation of diaappolaled aapiranta who pre* l
railed on Oorarnor Geary te exerciae the
veto. The aucceaa of that intrigue ie wit* j
neaaed in an apportionment which con
cede* to the democrat* of lha atate nine
diatricta in twenty-seven. ' The almplej
plan on which this partiaaa work ia con*
atructed ia to pile pepulou* democratic
countiaa together in large diatricta out ef
republican countiea. For example, York
and Cumberland, with a population of 180*
(HG, are not entitled to a member of con
greea, but the democratic county of Adama
with a population of 30,116 ia thrown in to
aa not to endanger a republican district,
while te the republican diatricta of Waah
ington. Bearer and Butler, with 121,141 in
habitanta, ia giren a member. This a dip
crimination of about thirty thoaaand
againat the democrats, and the aame rank
injuatice runs throughout the entire bill.
In other respect* the hill is a monster of
gerrymandering iniquity. The ancient
and populous county of Bucks ia diyided,
one part being flung to Montgomery, and
the other te Lehigh and Northampton.
Not only are these counties thus mutilated
but a ward of a democratic city ia torn
from its municipality, and thrown into a
rural district. That ia a refinement of ger
rymandering rascality which attaches the
Twelfth ward of the city of Scrantoa to the
Monroe and Wayne diatrict Montour ie
separated from the counties with which it
baa been associated politically ever sine#
it* organisation and i* put with Potter and
M'Keen into a straggling diatrict of more 1
than one hundred and flfly miles in length. <
Such are some of the features of a gerry
mander in which radical fraud has surpass* i
ad all its former achievements in the aame I
line. But this wanton assault on the right
of popular representation will meet with <
no resistance within the party. The hill i
will go through the legislature and obtain <
the signature of a partisan governor With
the aame ease with which it was maaipu* <
luted in a radical caucus. Partisan ends 1
justify any political villany which the red- i
ical leaders may cbooee to perpetrate. It .
haa been already demoai>trated in this sea- |
aion tbat there is no conscientious sense of i
right and justica in the majority who con- i
trol the legislature. It would be the ut- ,
moat simplicity to imagine tbat ttkia ma- i
iority will balk at this iniquitous gerry- 1
mender.—Patriot. ,

that well preserved and extensive ruins
have been found which indicate the form

account of these by Colonel Roberts in the
ButUrr we quote the following descrip
tion "L is surrounded by n wall el sand

12 ft thick, and originally, judging from
the detritus, 16 ft or 3D ft. high. Within
are the walls of bouses, temple*, end tuar

with hieroglyphics, cut deeply into the
•tone. The whole ef the ruins, like most
ef thoee of the Orient, and more especially
those of Arabia and Assyria, are more or
1 lee* buried in sand. According to the ac
count, this city 1* tome 90 mile* from the

an equalfdlslanco from the Western Colo

THE MILLERITE SCARE.
i|
(From N. r. Observer.)
The year 1843 was marked by the sud
den rise, and IMS by the fall of the Mil
> lerites, n sect who had been deluded with
the notion that the Lerd Jesus Christ
would cema in visible person on n certain
j day in a latter year to receive his saints, to
dastroy his enemies, and establish hi*
threne on the earth. They took their name
from William Millar, a Baptist ministeria
tha northern part of this St*ls, who had
studied the prophecies until he knew noth
ing abeut them, and by a process in arith
metic peculiar to himself had hit upon the
year when the flnai catastrophe was to ec
icur to the confusion of the wicked aad
| the glorification of all who were found
waiting for tha coming of the Lord. It
was wonderful with what avidity thi* da-
Ilusion was received. Its dupes numbered
thousands. They were not of the more in
telligent clsssas; indeed very few educn
| ted people were led estrny ; but of serious
i minded and unlettered multitude* who
composed the great mas* of the commnni
.ty at that time. The sudden converts la
Millaritm were many. One reason that
operated rapidly upon thia sort of poopla
j was the tbertaa** of tim# allowed them to
make up their mind*. They were told
I that the end was at hand. First the year
was fixed; than the month and the day.
And to make a sure thing of it, they
thought the safest course was to fofirrs, and
if tha crash came at tha appointed time
they would be all right, and if it did not
they would be no wore# off than before on
account of their faith in the figure* of Mil
ler. And lam inclined to think that Mil
ler's name having an apparent analogy to
Millennrinninn helped to faith in his cnlcu •
lations. Thousand* of excellent Christian
man, scholars, divines— some ofthcra men
of wide repute for learning and religion—
are Milenarian*; believing in the future
personal reign of Jesus Christ upen the
earth and in bis speedy coming to set up
his throne. But they do not set the time
Some writers ef thi* school have found in
the figure# of the Prophet Daniel a starting
point and a period, and have, therefore,
ventured to fix the year when the King
might be expeited to appear iu bis glory ;
but in all auch esses the march of time has
compelled them te find errors in their cal
culation* by which the great event was
necessarily postponed.
But in the Millerite year the delusioa
took the form el an epidemic or panic
The leaders ef the sect perambulated the
ceuulry with Immense tents in which to
hold public meetings, and these were
crowded for Joys and nights in succaesion
by axcited congregation*, whesa prayers
and songs and cries bordered on the deliri
ous. Many did become deranged. Lu
natic asylums reported this delusioa as the
cauee of ineanity In many case*.
Oae night, vary late, a man came to me
with a message from God tbat I must be
lieve in the Bpeedy Advent, and leaok it
to the people. He would not Be pat off
with the excuse that it was nearly mid
night and I could nstlistau te his discourse
al such an unseasonable hour. He said
that nothing was so important as tne rev
elation he had coma to make, and that it
was high time I heard it. Then he began
with his figures. He added, subtracted
end divided, plied up datee from history
and prophecy, told of the "abomination af
desolation" that wa* to be set up and that
was set up, and started off from that data
and calculated the downfall ef the Roman
Empire and the death of Napoleon, and
brought out 184* as neatly as the most ac
curate mathematician could desire. Out
of breath at tha end of his computation and
triumphing in tha result, he demanded my
assent to hie conclusion.
I looked up at him and quietly asked,
"And what do you make of the two
etkks?"
"Sticks, what sticks T" ha said.
•'Wall, air," 1 replied, "if you are an ex
positor of the prophecies and do not know
the two slicks of which tha prophet speaks,
you must excuse me from receiving any
messages from yea as earning from beet
en." Be soon left me to my fate
gone of th societies were so sure the
end was at hand, that they put their ladi
vl4u*l possessions, WW* usually
very Ueader, litejelbt (tort, la ititttiea
of the early Christians who had "ail things
common," In Oneida county, N. Y., a
well-to-do farmer being converted to tbelr
doctrine came to Join thair church and,
en being told of this rule, said he would
think of it awhile, and pray oear It He
want awejr sarrowful far ha was eery rich.
At the nest meeting he appeared, and up
on being called upon fer hi* answer, he
•aid he had received a message from heav
en and was prepared toebey. " While en
gaged In preyar for divine direction," said
ha, "I have had on# passage of the Bibla
so powerfully Impressed upon my mind
that I know It la from Ood and ! shall do
a* 1 am commanded."
The brethren and slater* were in breath
lost expectation of the tremendous sacri
fice be was about to make. The elder hade
bim be of good courage, and declare the
message. And the rich man said
The passage that came to my mled,
and which I am resolved to obey, was in
these words, 'Occur* TILL I Com'"
And when the appointed time arrived,!
thousand* of them were ready as far as
their while raiment could be regarded a*
readiness for such an avent. So purely
carnal and earthly ware all thair views of
thi* great spiritual change, that they made
liaen garments called "A*cen*ion robes,'
with which they arrayed themselves
Some of them, in dlie, took their ml>
upon the edge of the heuee top*. Other*,
in the country, ascended hills, er climbed
en tree* and sat at still possible, while their
lock* were wet with the dews ef the night.
They thought they would see the Lord de
scending from the sky and that they would
| rise to meet him in the air. It was easy to
believe that a mistake as a day, or area el
month had been made in reckoning
! thousands of years, and many, therefor*
thought the advent was still at hand
theugh they had not hit upon the identical
day. Others gave up to wild despair.
Many were made faithless in Scripture,
when they found they had been duped by
false teachers. I never heard that any
were made more charitable, store patient,
bumble Christians. The prominent trait o:
character ia the Milieritas was their can
sorieus and denunciatory spirit toward
those who would not adopt their arithme
tic. But their end came when they thought
the world was coming to en end. The
awful day came. Tb# sun rose, shone a*
usual, and Just as it was ia the habit of do
ing. And then tb* moon made its quiet
tour among lb* stars, and died away la the
light of another day. And all thing* went
on as frarn the beginning. Two or three
other data* were ftsed upon, and previou*
error* of calculation were es plained, hut
the end would not come any way they
could As it. Miller subsided into his farm
which it was reported be had vastly en
larged by cheap purchases of thoee wh*
did not set a high price on the lands they
were seon to leave Elder Himes, who
had been the ftdus Achates ef Miller, and
bad blewn the trumpets in advance of the
coming King, blew on, but. es before, it
was all wind, sound and fury signified
nothing. And now, after the lepee of a
quarter of e century, there ia net e vestig
remaining of e faith that took poeeession
ef thousands, and had its disciplas ia al
most every city end village, end rural
parish of the Northern, Eastern and Mid
dle States.
In the month ef January, 1866, I found
a miserable, half-starved colony of this
sect in the Uoly Land. Their delusion
had received the additional article of faith
that the Lord would set up his kingdom
in Palestine, and rtign again in lha city of
lha great King. Tbey had gatherad what
earthly posseasion* tbey had, aad finding
their way across the ocean, and through
tha Mediterranean sea, had laaded at the
ancient Juppe, where dwelt, once on a
time, that Siman tha Tanner, to whom
! Cornelia* sent Near thi* city they had
bought n little land, which coat them but
a trifle, they had reared little cots, and
were there waiting. Poverty came, but
the Lord did not. Loneliness, homesick
ness, disease, but no signs ef the Healer
and Saviour. Home of them lived te be
brought away by the hand of charity, aad
some ol them died there, aad their bodies
do rest in the grave until the resurrection,
when they shall be raised up. let u* hope,
lin glory. But the Son of Man has not
come, and is not likaly te come soon. Te
each one ef us he comes when our work is
i done, and it ie lha part of wisdom to be al
ways ready.
But this Millorile scare is one of tha
most instruct!v* chapter* in modern reli
gions history.

• voretes interest or compensation for the
0 use of money, what can be got for it.
This la giving the money lender a limit in
1 power, thet the needy money borrower,
i would have to comply with, that would be
ruinous to him. It is very poor deaocra*
t cy that legislates at all in the direct inter*
s eats of money and monied men, and I am
> very much surprised at Mr. Orvis, for 1
. supposed him the last man, to advocate
i legislation of the sort. We are taught,
I the love of money is the root of all evil,
, and I fear the love ef money is the mia-
I chief and the root of the evil with many al
; the present time, in the democratic party,
i Our fathers, it seems, were wiser men than
- we are, for they, in this particular, strictly

interest, and if he took more his penally
, wa* a forfeiture of the principal. They
reasoned that money in itself had power
, and in tbaOhe possessors ofpnoney had an
> advantage, that the destitute of money had
i not, which was all tha possessors of monay
could claim ar had any right to. This be
, ing the|case, which undoubtedly it is,
legislation in the interest of money and
monied men U wrong and only calculated
, to make the rich richer, and the poor
poorer. The money lender has tha right .
, to lend his money to whom he will and ,
pleases, but here he stops. Neither he nor
the money borrowers are allowed to fix
■ the interest ar tha compensation lor the
use of money. That power must come
from the authority af law or otherwise
there could he no equality, justice, and !
fair dealing between man and man, and
not law in this ewe. hut money, would be
the masters and controllers of the people. '
Rich and poor, capital and labor, must j
alike be independent and no law is right
making the strong stronger, and tha weak
weakar. The greatest interest we haee is j
the forming interest of the country. Doe*
money invested in land pay fl per cent?
What say yau farmer* of Pennsvalley, t
shall the usury law be repealed or chang
ed that tha shave shope and monay sharp- j
era shall epeculata and drain tha pockets
of formers and tha needy, that they be
come nabobs of the land and live at their
ease ? Such a bill must ba opposed-and ia t
in opposition to the mind of every man 0
who antertains tha principle of the wise
democratic atateeuien who have preceded
them in the foundation of our government,
making tha paopls and all intarsete alike fi
and on equal footing. If thie government P
