During the ten months, ending 81
Oct. 1872, our imports exceeded our
exports to foreign countries $128,278,-
787- We exported specie aud bullion
to the amount of $81,731,957, and our
imports of the same were only $lB,-
000,000. These are rather alarming
facts, and we would ask, how long
can the country stand this? Such
operations as these cannot work well
for the financial condition of the
country, and if it continues thus, the
country will soon be hopelessly drain
ed.
This picture does uot argue well
for the effect radical rule has upon
the commercial prosperity of the
country. Under its rule we see the
gold aud silver of the country driven
to foreign lands at the rate of 681
miUlion in ten months over -that is
imported of the same precious metals
in the same time. At this rate, the
jingle of specie will never again sound
in the ears 'of the hardfisied farmer
and mechanic of this country as cur
rency, and rag money will continue to
keep its place. Fer twelve years the
administration has been under com
plete control of the radical party,
with full power to shape the legisla
tion of the country for its commer
cial prosperity, yet in ten months the
country finds itself in debt 128 mil
lion dollars to foreigners on imports.
Nov this does not look like establish
ing a boasted American policy of
protection to home industry; such
things were not promised by the high
tariffites, who continually cried down
the democracy, when that party was
in power, because it was uot sound
upon the tariff, and because its policy
in that respect was "ruinous to the
trade and commerce of the country."
How does the picture look aow, after
a fair trial of radical rule, and under
their boasted tariff? Why the coun
try is drained annually of about 65
millions of gold and.silver, and our iro
portsof merchandise exceed ourexports
nearly $218,000,000! When a man
buys more than he sells, and keeps
paying out cash largely in excess of
what he takes in in cash, why bank
ruptcy must follow, that is clear, and
its effect cannot be different upon the
country. If this goes on thus, the
country will be prostrated,—it is im
possible for it to hold out when the
trade runs against us to such an enor
mous extent The specie that goes out,
foreigners hord ; it never returns ; and
we keep the miserable rags. Were
we not promised something better un
der radical rule ? Were the democra
cy in power now, and the account
stood half as bad as it now does, what
a hoe and cry would be raised by the
radical press and orators, about
the ruinous policy of the. demo
cratic party, and well might they.
But this is now going on under radi
cal rule, and no alarm is felt.
The World thinks that the Demo
cratic party must survive and win on
ly under its time-honored name and
flag. That its triumphs must be by
recruits rather than alliance :
This strength of purpose which is
characteristic of the Democratic party
would, perhaps, have been productive
of immediate political results if the
party bad been smaller. Throughout
these long years of adverse fortune we
have always been formidable enough
to put our enemies in fear and keep
them united ; whereas, if we bad been
bat a resolute handfull instead of an
inflexible host, the Republicans would
long ago have split, and we, holding
the balance, conld have extorted con
cessions from one side as the price of
making it victorious over the other.
But the Democratic partv is too large,
and made ot too unyielding stuff, to
conquer in this way. At the very
time its enemies were talking about its
funeral, they stood in such mortal fear
that they made voters of all the ne
groes to protect themselves against the
re-ascendancy of the Democratic par
ty. We shall overcome even tbet ob
stacle. But our path to victory will
never lie in any other direction than
a straight Democratic course, leaving
honest Republicans to join us wben
they can no longer stand their own
party. We shall never sink into a
mere balance of power party. Our
success will come everywhere, as it
has come in Connecticut, by recruits,
not by an alliance. The Christian
church might as well make an alliance
with one sect of the Mahometans, in
stead of baptizing them as converts.
A oew movement in behalf of lew
and the people's rights is io progress
in Louisiana, and the Kellogg usur
pation of the Governorship of that
Stole is to be met a sharp and decisive
method of retaliation. The tax-pay
ers throughout the State, by which is
ment those of the people who did not
vote for Kellogg for Governor, are or
ganising in the parishes for the pur
pose of resisting the payment of the
taxes which the Kellogg tax collect
ors are about to call for illegally and
unjustlp. Congress, it is hoped, will
put an end to the Kellogg regime
when it meets next December: but in
the meantime the minions of radical
ism will be refused the funds without
which their administration of affairs
will be to them an empty show indeed.
There is howling at hand in our Rome
down in Louisiana.
The democrats last week carried
Cleaveland, Columbus, Dayton, and
Dubuque. The democracy evidently
are not yet dead. Connecticut shows
a great deal of life.
The Democrats last week also car
ried Keokuk, Cincinnati, and Toledo.

The Next Senator.
As utuhr the new apportionment
we have changed from a double to a
•ingle senatorial district, we will have ,
but state senator to elect next fall.
Who shall he he, is an important ques
tion, foi the democracy of this die
trict and even for the state. This dis
trict is democratic, hut is what may
be called a close one—composed of
the counties of Centre, Huntingdon,
MitHiii and Juniata. At the late
governor's election the vote in the-c
counties stood as follows :
Centre - ..1712 22W
Huntingdon ...3WO d24V)
Mitttm. ITUo 7s>
•Iu mats 14tt ISS
Total ism w
Showings democratic majority of
only 227. Now this is a small major
ity, but sufficient for every purpo-e
if the democracy make a wise and ju- !
dicious nomination —one which will
have the confidence of the party and
which will command the united demo-'
cratic vote. lu other words, with
such a smalt margin to go on, tlx
democracy must put in nomination one
of its strongest, best and most populai
men, otherwise the district will be en
dangered. The day has pretty wreli.
gone by when all men of a party will
longer cling to a nomination for were
party's sake—this is the sentiment of
thousands, and the set-up tools of wire
pullers an J political gamblers do not
go through so readily auytuore on the
cry of party, as in former days. The
people, the common classes, the plun
dered tax payers are getting to under
stand that a man's character needs
looking into as well as his politics be
fore they a til vote for nominees set
up by tricksters ami prostitutes in
politics. Thomas Jefferson's test, "Is
be houest, is he capable," is more and
more becoming the motto of the voter,
and the mete fact that a candidate is
a Democrat or a Radical, is loosing
| its importance with hundredsand thou
sands. This is right and proper in
! these days of Credit Mobilierism, state
| agency swindlers, addition, division,
land silenoe recommendations, thiever
' ies, forgeries and every conceivable
species of political roguriy with
which the dear people are cursed by
men who resort to any thing low- and
mean to get into office.
The cry is for gqod men, and he
who will kuowingly vote for any oth
er, violates his duties as a citixen and
does not deserve the sacred privilege
of the ballot.
What we must have in this district
next fall, is a nominee for seuator,
who is honest, capable, aud proof
against rings and roosters at Harris
burg. If we can't have such an one. it
were better for the good name of the
democratic party that we suffer defeat.
!We prefer seeiDg the radical party
disgraced by a bad radical, than to
have the good name of our time-hon
ored party sullied by a corrupt demo
crat. It would be batter to have a
good and honest republican to repre
sent this district thau a corrupt demo
crat who would affiliate with rings and
roosters and thereby only injure our
party. Thus reason honest men of ail
pariies to-day.
Then let us have a good, honest, ca
i pable democrat placed in nomination
for state senator next fall; with
j such au one we can carry the district;
; with any thing else the result will be
doubtful. We refer to this important
matter timely. We trust democrats
will act wisely in this matter. We
have good material, and we also have
some that is bad. Tricksters will at
tempt to obtain tb^nomination by
their accustomed schemes of fraud and
bribery. A defeat at the polls is the
only way to head off these scoundrels.
We shall consider it our duty as a
journalist to warn democrats against
tricksters who may seek to obtain a
nomination for senator. Honest men
must combine and put an end to
political scoundrels.
Let democrats ponder over this mat
ter. Let us resolve to have a good
and strong nominee ; we do not care
about supporting any other. We
want a nominee of whom we need uot
feel ashamed, and one who, when elect
ed, will be true to the interests of the
tax-payers and especially the working
classes. For such a nominee we
would battle with a will.
During the day a queer bit of gossip was
set afloat to the effect that certain members
of the American syndicate hnd been lock
ing up currency and sending money to
Philadelphia. Tbe object of this Is to
make money stringeat and depress gold
and governments. By this means they
have been enabled to purcba* bonds be
low,' par in gold, and then, by their ar
rangement with the treasury department,
to turn them in at par, thus realizing hand
some profits on large transactions. This
probably accounts for the curious feauture*
of the bond market
The above gossip, which came from
New York the other day, shows how
the money scares are gotten up, and
which so often disturb trade. This
kind of infamous gambling is done
with the connivance of government
agents, and the well known "black
Friday" transactions, in which Mrs.
Grant figured, and cleared 825,000,
about two years ago, was a plot of this
kind to create a gigantic panic, by
which scores of large business houses
were bankrupted.. And with this de
testable business government agents
are connected, even up to Grant's
family.
At what period of promised economy
did we have more salary stealing than
now, under radical domination ?
Grant has his salary doubled ; the radi
cal congress increased its salary to
110,000 per member for the term ;
Hartranft's salary was doubled, the
first thing the late radical legislature
did when k met. Now we ask any
honest republican whether this thing
is not in violation of the pledges of
that party. Are republican taxpay
ers pleated to have the salary steal go
on in this manner, in addition to the
other endless stealings by government
agents ? Is that what you voted for ?
if so, why did you not have the man
liness to say so? If our radical
friends in Centre county do not ap- j
prove ofthowj hold stealing*, then why
longer vi< with tltd radical party ?;
It i filt-liiitlV.>m radical pocket*and

HOUM- - -- .4pril .
Agreeably to special order, the
house resumed the further considera
tion of the bill to elect the stale treas
urti —providing that a treasurer shall,
lie elected on the second Tuesday in
October next, and annually thereafter
and that his term of office shall com
mence on the tiisl day of May follow
ing, and that the present incumbent
shall continue in office until May 1,
1874. being the commencement of the
term of the tirst treasurer to lm elected,
next October.
Mr. Orvis usadc a lengthy speech,,
showing by iiguica coined from the
governor' message, auditor general's
reports, and the stall int-uts of the
commissioners of the nuking fuud,
that under the pro-cut state treasurer,
during the last six years, there have
been a uumber of discrepancies, irregu
larities, defalcations and disregatd of
laws.
Mr Klliott said it was not an easy
matter to answer, without preparation, j
such a speech as the one telivered by;
the gentleman from Centre [Mr. Or-j
vis], which that gentleman had care-;
fully prepared and made up largely
froiii campaign argumeuts referred to.,
lie entered upon a discussion of the
subject, however, and answered some |
ol the points presented by Mr. 0., aud
defended the administration aud par
ty against the charges of corruption
and misapplication of the public fuuds
He remarked that if the gentleman
from Centre knew of any defalcation
or violation of law on the part of the
treasurer or other officers it was his
duty to offer a resolution calling for
a committee to investigate such af
fairs, and ol such committee he
would have been made the chair
man.
Mr. Orvu allcdged that he did of
fer a resolution of the kind on auolh
cr subject, but the committee was so
constituted by the speaker as to de
feat anv real investigation.
J/r. Latta said he introduced a bill
as early as January Inst providing lor
the election of a state treasurer, but it
was kept in committee for a long
while, and fiually came out with a
negative recommendation, aud he was
satisfied that the majority party then
determined that no such biil should
be passed during the sessiou, aud that
thus the will of the people was intend
ed to be violated, and the constitution
disregarded.
Mr. Mitchell replied to Mr. Latta,
answeriug the charge of indisposition
on the part of the republican party to
provide for the election of a treasurer.
He contended that there was no dere
liction of duty on the part of ths legis
lature if such au act is passed at auy
lime duriug the present sessiou. He
pointed out some alledged errors iu
the figures presented by the gentle
man from Centre.
Mr. Orvis denied that the figures
referred to are mete rehash of the
state campaigu matter, and made some
further remarks in regard to the
treasurer's accounts. He referred to
a resolution offered by Mr. Brock way
calling for certain information from
the state treasurer and auditor geuer
al, which was adopted, but it was re
ferred to the committee on ways and
means.
Mr. Brockway corrected the gentle
man from Centre [Mr. Orvis] by in
forming him that the resolution refer
red to was unanimously adopted, but
information was never furnished.
Mr. Orvis stated his experience as
chairman of an investigating commit
tee in regard to a bill (relating to
Delaware avenue), which committee
could not oe induced to meet for busi
ness, because each member invariably
seemed to have some other special ap-
f ointment at the time proposed by.
imself for such meeting. He was
therefore decidedly of the impression
that he could not reasonably hope for
practical results had he moved for an
investigation of state treasury affairs
as suggested by the gentleman from
Philadelphia, [d/r. Elliott.]
Mr. Brock way entered into a brief
description of the pending bill, and re
ferred to an amendment which he in
tended to offer, so as to fix December
1, 1873, as the commencement of the
term of the treasurer, instead of May
1,1873.
The first section of the bill was
agreed to, when Mr. R rock way ofTered
the amendment above referred
to.
Mr. Elliott hoped it would not be
' adopted, as the surveyor and auditor
generals enter upon their office on the
first of May, and the two offices
should continue to run together. Not
agreed to—yeas 32, nays 61.
The several succeeding sections
were read and agreed to and the bill
passed veas 67, nays 26.
Mr. Lntta, when his name was call
ed, said he voted aye because he be
lieved it his duty, under the constitu-!
tion, to do 60, although this bill was
not in the shape to command his ap
proval.
TtlK MILITIA SUPPLEMENT.
Mr. Ballantine, from the committee
of conference on a supplement to the;
act of March 4, 1864, entitled an act
for the organization of the militia of
the Commonwealth, reported that the
senate had receded from its amend
ments to said bill, and the report was,
adopted.
WILLI A MS PORT.
Mr. Petriken made a statement that
a hill had mysteriously disappeared,
or was stolen, entitled a further sup
plement to an act to incorporate the
city of Williamsport, and moved to
suspend the rules to enable him to in
troduce a new bill. Objected to.

A ( urlous Bundle
r A correspondent of an excbaDge
; gives this account of 3/r. Stephens' re
i cent appearance at a public reception
t in Atlanta ;
Alexander 11. Stephen emerged
1 from the Kimball house, wrapped up
' in three overcoats and a horse blank
et. The bundle with a white head
sticking out put in a carriage right
end up, and propped in position by
two crutches. The bundle then
' said it was all right, and away the
carriage rolled to the capitol. The
bundle was then taken out, uurolled,
till Stephens was found. Leaning
on two stout men, with two more car
rying each a crutch, the procession en
tered the house of representatives.
; The building was packed'as I never
saw it before. Ladies, politicians,
members of the legislature, citixens,
negroes and children had all turned
out. When Stevens appeared there
went up a shout. It was long and
loud, aud was followed by another
louder and longer. Then when that
died out another started and rau its
course. Mr. Stephens bowed ac
knowledgements as well as he could,
considering that the two stout men
made sort of a moving straight jacket.
When he arose in the speaker's stand,
the bright light falling upon his pale,
(hin face and white head, there wes
more cheering and applause. It waa
plain that Stephens had the hearts of
tho people. He Spoke in an erect po
sition, supported hy a crutch under
Iris left arm. His voice is clear and
shrill, and not a word was lost in any
part of the hall, unless the sound was
drowned hy applause. I waa in an
extreme corner uf the hall, wedged in
among a mass of humanity, and 1
know that each word came with mar
vellous distinctness, although bis
voice did not seem to be unduly ele
vated. And this weak aud wasted
skeleton of a man spoke thus for
more than two hours.

ABOVE THE ARCTIC CIRCLE
The Marvel* of the Frtgid Zone —Interct-
>ng Erprritntr. . in the Starch for the
Open Polar Sea—Surrounded hy lee-
Dr. Isaac J. Hayes, delivered the second
of his course of lectures descriptive of his
researches and adventures in search of the
open polar ten before a large audience in
Association Hall last[ night. The gla
ciers and icebergs of Greenland were viv
idly described. All the interior of Green
land, the lectuier said, it one vast field of
ice, which gradually and imperceptibly
moves downward to the sea the centre
moving somewhat more rapidly than the
■ides, end by the fractures thus created
giving to the ice those fantastie shape*
which from time immemorial have been at
ence the marvel and admiration of explor
ers. When the glacier reaches the sea it
passes on as before over the inclired plain
beneath tho surface, until so much of it is
immersed that it it no longer able te resist
the buoyancy of the water, and breaking
from tke glacier, with a roar that can be
heard for miles, the icebeig risee to the
surface, and floats away sometime* as far
as the coast of Newfoundland, while the
glacier continues its ceaseless movement
downward to form new icebergs from age
to age. The masses oi ice thus detached of
course very in six* hut in all of them there
1* seven times a* much ice under water a*
appears above the surface. From the
deck of his vessel Dr. Hayes once counted
as many as COO, seme as large as the hall in
which he stood, ethers as largo as Trinity
Church, still others twtlve times the sixe
ef New York. One In especial arose 817
feet above the surface, ami he computed
lis weight to have been not less than twen
ty, seven billions of ton*.
THK uinvtoiir si x.
With regard to lbs midnight sua, Dr.
Ilsyos related an incident wlilali, had he
not actually witnessed It himself, might
l-ttasibly have been received with incrsd
ullty by his audience. As ba travelled
northward the days gradually lengthened
until darkness ceased altogether, and the 1
sun was never out of sight. Thepasaengar*
on board the ship were much incommoded,
and were obliged to create artificial dark
ness by drawiug curtains all aiound them
when they desired to sleep. The dumb
animals on board were in a pitiful state of
conternation , tbe dogs howled unceasing
ly, and evinced a desire to hay the *un
Hut tbe must remarkable effect was crea
ted upon an old rooster, the last of their
•lurk of fowl*, whoaa life had been spared
in consldeiatien of his age and consaquent
toughness. This venerable bird, day after
day, watched the beaveas, but found no
•pportuulty of heralding the approach of
dawn by his wonted crow, liis mind at
last gave way, and oae morniag, in full
view of tha astounded vovagers, the uti
.happy bird flew upon the rail of the ship,
stretched his neck toward* the sun, and
giving the merest apology for a crow,
•prang into the ocean and was seen no
mora
In IMM Dr. Hayes # first expedition sail
ed northward, and breaking through the
n-a in Haffin > Hay, penetrated a* far a*
latitude 76*. thU, up to that time, being
the ftirthoet point ever attained by explor
ers. On the icebergs which he encounter
ed |Hilar hears were very numerous. These
animals, ha said, are far from being the
ferocious monitors which voyagers are so
fond of depicting. They are, in fact, vary
timid craeturea. As an instance of their
cowardice, he related an accaunt of his
suddenly meeting ona in the middle of an
artic night, that is to say broad daylight
Without a moments hesitation the doclo r
turned end ran, never slopping until his
breath we* exhausted , he then looked be
hind him to see, as he said, how long a
lease of lite remained for him, and to his
unspeakable relief saw the hear was run-
I ning also, but in tha opposite dirtction.
AM HODS or Txaaoa.
| A very perilous adventure through
I which he pa seed duriug this voyage was
j listened to with breathless attention. The
Übip was lying in a large natural bay or
| harbor, cloae to a glacier; one day a ter
rific roaring startled every one on board.
LAn immense iceberg had partod from the
I glacier, and risen to the surface ao near tha
hip that the flrat of a auooaasion of waves
which it created carried the veasel, drag
ging bar anchor, entirely acre*# tha hay,
ilaavlng her within a few feet of the rocks
ow tbe opposite side. The wave recoiling,
threw over the deck a volumeof water that
swept before it everything not made last,
jand forced the crew to hold on for their
(lives.
Two of the fineat glacier* th* lecturer aaw
| he chrialened after Prof. Tyndall in com
pliment to that groat acientiat for hia Al
pine roaoarchea. Among the intereatmg
j feature* of th# lecture waa the eihibitien
ofaome exquisite photograph# of Arctic,
scene* reflected upen a curtain on tne
•lege. One of those waa a gigantic rack
on the conat of Greenland, which waa in,
all rMpacta aim liar to that on wHlch the
ill-fated Atlantic had struck, and It waa a
matter of aurpriae to Dr. Hayea, in view of
i the nature of the coast, thai #o many of the
Atlantic* paaaengera had been aaved
' Melville Bay waa tbe higheat point reach
ed in thla expedition. In concluding hi*j
lecture Dr. Ha ye* aaid that Ihi# trip might
be made by any gentleman during the
the rummer month* In hi* own yacht.
Noble a port could be found in abooting po
lar bears, and the trip weuld be no more
dangerous than crossing the Atlantic. At
the ftrat blush it might seem that sailing
among lhaae tremendous glaciers and ice
berg* wa* perilous navigation, but it
should be berne in mind that at th* proper
season darkness never hide* them, and
i hence danger from this source need scarce
ly be apprehended.
e
MOXKKYISM IN THK LEGISLA
TURE
The following monkeyish scene took
place in the House on Wednesday evening.
1 last, 10th :
The Houte continued in session thi*
1 morning until two o'clock A M. Nobus
j uncs* of importance was transacted, theob
ject of continuing in aaaaion being merely
to receive message* from tbe Senate, and
j to concur on amendment* made by that
body.
During the interval* or ben there were no
message* the member* of the House in
dulged in the usual amusement* attending
the close of the Legislative body. These
I consisted in calling the most incompetent
* member* to preside, and then overwhelm
ing lb cm with mast absurd question* and
r ridiculous motion*. In one esse the mem
ber who assumed the chnir was driven out!
of it by repeated discharge* of paper end
. document* from all parts of the House. A*
i some of these missile* weighed helf a
. pound eech, and were thrown with great
r force and velocity, the fan of dodging
- them wo* more exciting than pleasant
Finally, a* a sort of intellectual relief to f
the entertainment, Mr. Brockaway offered
r a resolution appointing a committee to in-<
. vile Hon. A. K. McClure and the belnnce
| of the Liber I Republican party to address
. the House on the condition of all the po
litical parties in existence. The resolution'
,'was agreed to. Messrs. Brockaway. Jo
seph* and Tintermary were appointed the
committee, and proceeded in quest of Sen
, aU r McClure. He was soon found and
I was escorted into the hall. As ha entered.
[ the members of the House rote and greet
<ed him and the committee hy whom he
i vsj eecourted with a volley of paper mis
tile*, consisting of a general aseortmeiit of
, all the legislative documents of the session,
, in addition to cigar-boxe, newspapers and |
large printed film of bills.
After running the gauntlet the entire
length of the hall, the Senator took his
, piece upon the Speaker's stand amid ap
plause, half in earnest and half jeeringly.
Ho addressed the member* as fellow* :
Mr. Speaker and Commeners of the
State of Pennsylvania: I thank you for
the di*tinction you havi conferred upon
me by your invitation to addres* you on
I the tuhject of reform. I know of no other
| pody of tuen, either of the preeent or past,
that needs instructions en the necessity of
both public and private morality, so much
as the House of Representative* of this
State, now before me (laughter), or that
bat so broadly and deeply experimented
in the line of individual and official profli
gacy. (Laughter and applause.) I am
not surprised, however, that it is to when
I consider that of the members serving in
this llouto from my immediate locality,
many wore not even nominated, and few,
if any, were ever elected. (Shout* of '
Laughter.) I tent you reform bills, which ,
cost me many day* of anxious thought and
labor to perfect, but you danced not when
I piped to you, neither did you weep re
*p< ntive to my mourning ever the degen
eracy of the body {•olitic. 1 must admit,
however, that you were prompt execution- ,
ers, for every bill that looked toward re- -
form was negatived with a yell as fast a* i
rule* would allow. But in political, a* (
often in mernl and religious cycles, the ,
darkest hour is just before the dawn of day ; <
and it is gratifying that after you have "
consummated all the harm you can pessi- '
bly inflict upon the State, you have by a
unanimous resolution called for a confas- j
sor. [Laughter.] It was well to pause „
thus, just far the sake of novelty or refer- '
enee, so that when the tempest breaks you
can point to this becoming act of contri- v
lion for the wrongs done to your constitu- *'
ents and to the Common wealth. [Applause „
and sarcastic shouts.] Most of you who c
have for three months been serving in the a
pieces 19 which 9ther persons were elect- 1
'ed by the people, hate diicanntnd the re*lf
tributive wove of popular reprobation by
creating offices by legislative enactment*,
to which you have to retire; and those un
provided for hope folio placed on the in
definite payroll of the pastera and folders
of the House, in accordance with tha prey
•lent custom hare to pension decay d
>l*l #swon. (Hhouts of laughter.] That
you seek liberal rounanls to have good
seed sown In the cl-oos of virtue that sur
rounds >au is a hopeful sign of the times
and if you do not cheat us more than 80,-
000 in Philadelphia next fall the |> !<•*
{that know you now will know must of you
no more forever. (Laughter, J Hut 1 turn
! to the faint silver lining on the deep cloud
of your record. One act of this House,
gladdened the heart*of the whole people
of the Hlate, and relnspired hope through
out the length and breadth uf the Common
wealth 1 refer to your vole in the midst
of disorder, that a Philadelphia fir# would
be called a riot, on Monday evening last,
fixing an early day for your final adjourn-,
rnaiit | Laughter and applause) I have
heard of no citiaan of tha Hut# who did
nut heartily approve of that act. 1 am
happy to point to it aa the oasis in tha.
withered desert that you have made about
you, and to accord you credit for k. llup
in*, gentlemen, if I may be pardoned the
use of tha term, that the length of your
livas may coriaspond 'with the measure
of your virtue#, and that you will be auc
ceeded by better men than yourselves, 1
bid you good-nigbl. The Senator retired
amid roaring applause and a liberal show
er of paper ball#.
A committee wax appointed to wait up-1
on Senator Klisha W Davia, who wai
i then escorted to the chair lie took an an
i lirely different view from Senator M'Cture
i He thought that after fifteen years expe
rience at Uarrisburg ha had never seen a
- Legislature that tried as hard to do its du
i ty to the people.
As to the remarks of Senator M DURE
that some of the members had never bean
elected, he thought the repreeentalive of
■ the Liberal Republican party was about
in tha same boat. He should be glad to
i #e all the raambeiw, and particularly all
, the Philadelpbians, hack next year, [Greet
Applause.)
1 After Senator Davis bad retired the vol
ley* of paper hooks were renewed, and,,
' after a variety of scenes entertaining and
otherwise, the House adjourned. It may
he well to explain to the general reader,
!wbo is comparatively ignorant of parlia
mentary rules, that on the last night of the
tos*io% it is impossible to transact any bus-
I inesa except simply to act upon Senate
amendments, and the .House therefore
amused itself a* above stated, license en
'those occasions being always given.
