The Grant policy of usurpation, in
Louisiana, is bringing its fruits —
bloodshed has already resulted end
lives have been loet. The people
want no bayonet rule and will resist;
they think they can govern Louisia
na themselves, and have indicated by
their votes who shall do it, and
Grant's backing up the bastard gov
ernment of Kellogg is usurpation of
the wont kind.
Local Option, so for as Clinton
county is ooooeroed, does not amount
to much. Lock Haven city has vot
ed for licenses, while the county voted
against The city being the market
and centre of trade for that county,
almoet; every countryman seen going
from Lock Haven, has a bottle with
him. Selling whisky and botllee ie
now a big thing for the Lock Haven
liquor sellers.
Civil war has broken out in Louisi
ana —nothing less was te have been
looked for the way the scalawags
went on, under the advice and pro
tection of the Grant regime. It it too
much to expect that a people shall sit
down quietly under such a usurpation
as it attempted in that unfortunate
state. It is the right and the duty of
every citizen of Louisiana to resist
The Kellogg government is a damna
ble imposition, and were it >ot for the
federal bayonets, it would have van
ished months ago and the state have
enjoyed quiet.
Blood has been shed, and upon the
Grant administration rests the re-
sponsibility, for having triad to fiuteo
upon the paople of that state a set of
state officer* whom they repudiated at
the polls. The administration at
Washington had na right to inter
fere at all ; it was not called upon to
to do so, and we truat that the men of
Louisiana will aucceod in driving out
the minions and tool* of the white
hoaee tyrant, and that not a single
one will fiad her soil congenial enough
to stay. If the people wiah to pre
serve their rights end liberties they
must net themselves, there is no use
in appealing to, and expecting juetice
from the Jaeobine who now tyranise
over the country. Forbearance has
ceased to be a virtue, especially in
Louisiana, and God speed the cause
of ha sons.
The Congressional Steal
The dishonest and disgraceful steal
of Congressmen in the increase of
salaries, and especially in making it
aDply to the last session, is condemn
ed by the people generally, as ie the
act of Grant signiugtbe bill by which
it was made a law. Below we give the
officers affected by the law, with the
old and preeeot Salaries :
President $ 25,000 $ 50,000
Vice President 8,000 10,000
Speaker 6,000 10,000
Chief Justice f,600 10,100

Delegates 60,000 100,0U)
Total ama't tal'r* $1.781600 $3,210.00
Increase $1,415,500 annually
Thia is an additional burdan planed
upon the people, at a time when taxes
are already high. The salaries of
Conga—men hare been increased
three timet within the past twenty
yean, and every time whan the party
opposed to the Democracy wore in the
majority. In 1854, whan the Know-
Nothing* had the majority in Con
grem, it wae increased from $8 per
aay to $3,000 per year. In 1864,
when the Republicans controlled Coo
grem, to $7,500 per year.
The radicals hare the District of
Columbia under their own rule now.
The population is 136,000, or about
four times that of Centre county, yet
it [coats $2,224,000 to carry on the
government of the District For aala
ries alone $543,596 are spent in a
year, and the rata of taxation is
$1.76 upon SIOO. The worst of rings
have things under their control and
the governor is appointed by Grant
Astounding frauds are practiced by
the radical office-holders there—and
there's where the money goes. Un
der democratic rule the District was
entirely free from the curses which
have of lata years fallen to its lot
Gen. eberraan says there seed be no
fears of a general Indian war.
Oakes Ames was struck with para
lysis on 6th inst. He struck some fel
lows pretty badly with Credit Mobil
ier, which was just about as fatal.
The tunnel of the Baltimore and
Potomac railroad under the city of
Baltimore is on the verge of comple
tion. When finished i* will enable
passengers to go through the city
without stopping.
Trenton, in Louisiana, was nearly
destroyed by fire on the morning of
the 6th. Loes 6300,000.
Stokes has been denied a new trial,
by the supreme oourt. Next the court
of appeals will be resorted to. It is
about time "new trials" be played out
in this case.
Chief Justice Chase died in Hew
York on 6th, of apoplexy.
A salmon weighing 9} pounds, and
31 inches in length, was shot in the
Susquehanna, near Hanieburg, a few
days ago. That must have been old
Sam-one.
The democrats carried Pottsrille by
230 majority, the other day, and on
Grant.
The Graphic hits the nail on the
head, elegantly in the following little
article:
The news from Louisiana, as will be
seen from our despatches, is depressing
in the extreme. The State is on the
brink of civil war, and the slightest
movement of either party may precipi
tate a bloody contlict. Behind all
the conftisiou* and complication* of
this sad case, the people do not lose
sight of two salient facts: The Kel
logg Government has been pronoun
ceil a usurpation by the Senate Com
mittee, and it owes all its power to the
unauthorised interference and the un
qualified support of the Federal au
thorities. But for the presence of the
United State* troops, there would
have been no difficulty fo apeak of.
The negroes have been excited to take
up arms by a faction, ami feel stroug
enough to attack the whites because
backed by Federal artillery. It is to
be regretted that, while affairs are iu
this critical condiliou in a great Com
monwealth, the President i* riding
about the country, partakiug of the
hospitalities of the rich, aud evideutly
enjoying himself to the utmost with
congenial companions. It would
seem that while the Modoc* are shoot
ing our soldier* by the score at the
Lava Beds, aud our nation is irietriev
ably disgraced in the eyes of'lhe
whole world by corrupt commis
sioners at Vienna, aud a whole State
is inarms|in consequence of Federal
usurpation, Geo. Grant should be any
where but where he is. If he canuot
attend to the duties of his great office
'at a juncture so critical as the preseut
certainly L, he ought to resign at once
and make way for a man who is will
ing to sacrifice pleasure to business,
and does not need a vacation every
week.
"How the President Draws his Sala
ry," is the caption of a three inch ar
ticle, going through some of our ex
changes. What the President draws
the $50,000 for and where it comes
from, are matters that interest the
dear people more than "How he Draws
it."
Gov. Dix. of New York, will not
sign the local option bill, unless cider
and lager beer are exempted.
The Strength of the Democracy.
The Albany Aryu* exhibits with
vigor and clearness the actual
strength and resources of the Democ
racy and the waning power of Radi
calism. It recalls that "in 1860 the
Republican party was in an actual
minority on the aggregate vote of the
country of 947,2897 This minority it
has wiped out, not by gains from the
Democratic party, but by adding
1,032,475 voters from the colored
race. The gains of the Republican
party have not been from the white
race but from the black race, for the
Opposition to-day is able to bring to
the polls from the great reserve vote
of the country 350,000 more voters
than it was able to poll in 1860; leav
ing still a million and a half of non
voting citizens subject to the call of
that organization which shall best suc
ceed in quickening their conscien
ces.
"The country to-day contains three
millions of active Democrats, two and
a-half millions of white Republicans,
one million colored citizens, and one
million and a half of non-voting citi
zens who are so disinterested that only
deep political excitement reaches
them. The aggregate white vote of
the coontry was about 800,000 more
last fall than in 1860.
"The Democratic party has to-day
a stronger nucleus than the Republi
can party. Its three millions hare
been baptized in fire and blood for
their faith, aod are held by ties strong
er than even 'the cohesive power of
public plunder,' for tbey have re
mained banded together notwithstand
ing every reverse. They are Democrats
because they believe in Democracy.
Republicans have been such, also, be
cause tbey believed in Republicanism ;
but that party having accomplished
all it undertook to do, and its leaders
having organized as public plunder
ers, those who now believe in the Re
publican party are rapidly diminish
"Counting in the one million of col
ored voters, and yet there are five
millions of the eight and a-balf mil
lions of voters in the country which
the Republican party cannot bring to
the polls. With the lo of confidence
and loss of interest, now apparent
among Republicans on every hand,
and with the growing conviction that
there is security only in the tried
principles of Democracy, it requires
very little faith in the ultimate tri
umph of the right to become convinc
ed of tbe complete success of the
Democratic party.
"A comparison of the returns of the
elections with the census reports shows
that of the non-voters full one million
belong to tbe non-voting whites of the
South, who if they bad voted, would
have cast their suffrages for the
Liberal ticket, thus giving the oppo
sition a large majority of the entire
vote.
"More than one-half of the electors
of the country, including two-thirds
of its intelligent population, are wed
ded to the Democracy ; and political
courage and popular confidence can
not fail to make that sentiment effec
tive at the polls.
"Tbe State of New York contains
981,587 citizens, a majority of whom
are naturally Democratic; as has been
attested by the many and brilliant suc
cesses achieved by tbe Democracy.
Over 150,000 voters stayed away from
tbe polls last fall.
"The Republican party having
trampled upon its platform of last
J ear, and having been convicted of
igh crimes against public morality
and sound principle, it but remains
for tbe Democratic party to vigorous
ly assert its own distinguishing princi
ples, to secure tbe confidence of the
people, and to redeem the Htate.
The Republican party misgoverns
wherever it rules. The application of
Democratic maxims in the conduct of
government will remedy all the con
sequences of its misrule. He prattles
lika a parrot, then, who prates of
Democratic doubt, and Democratic
dismay. Just now is tbe precise time,
above all others, when the Democrat
ic party has the right to be most con
fident Its principles are eternal, and
the validity of ita organization equal
ly so. Immortality possesses it, be
cause its life is the life of the nation."

Lofiisliii lon in Pennsylvania - j
Speech of K\ Allornpy (irncrfll
lllMCk.
The llud. Jeremiah S. Black has
lately delivered n noteworthy *|H*O<l>
he tore the Constitutional Convention
of Pennsylvania, in which lie i* one
of the delegate* ut Inige. .l/r. Black
wa* Attorney-General of tho Tinted
States in the day* befoie mediocrity
had become a imsspoil to that otlicc.
lie is a lawyer of unquestioned ability
and integrity, and his views on the
present condition of his own Slate are
entitled to great consideration.
Mr, Black thus speak* oi Pennsyl
vania ancient glory :
The titue was when the State of
Pennsylvania, then a mere colonv,
containing perhaps It ss than .*>o,ooo
inhahitants, had a reputation through
out the earth for independence, jus
tice, pence, and good order • for eve
rything that goes to make up the hap
pines* of nu organised society. There
was no portion of the world from
which the eyes of the l>el and wisest
men were dot tinned in admiration
toward this ooiuniuuity. All this re
sulted from tho wise und just system
oi laws adopted by the illustrious
founder of the colony.
And then he dwells on her pre-cut
shame:
What we want above all tilings
ii|H>n the earth is houest legislation ;
aud when I say we want it, I use the
word in the double son-e of needing
it and luckiug it. It cannot be de
nied that the legislature of the State
ot Pennsylvania has habitually, and
constantly, for the last twenty-five
years or more, betrayed the trust re
posed in its members; aud ibis has
gone so far that we mutt have reform
if wa would not see our institutions
perish before our eyes. There was a
time when membership of our State
Legislature was a passport to honor
aud admirmtiou everywhere, from a
Parisian drawing room to the cottage
of a peasant. Now that same Legis
lature is a sleuch iu the nostrils ul the
whole world. The cry against this
corruption comes up, not only from
every part of this house, but from eve
ry quarter of the Commonwealth. It
is borne to us on the wings of every
wind. Nor is it a mere popular
clamor. It is fouuded upon IUCOU
testable facts which have pawwd into
the dooiaiu of history, and will staud
there forever.
The speaker gives two specific in
stances iu which this utter abseuce ol
morality aud houesty iu the Legisla
ture has worked terrible injustice,
l'he first is the pas-age of the charter
of the hank of the United Status m
1837. How this resulted is eloquent
ly teld :
The Bank of the United States
pushed its charter through, partly by
direct bribery aud pwrtly by a hase
combination of private interests,
which were speuly aud shamelessly
avowed upon the face of the bill it
self. The speculation exploded in
the course of a short time ; but it
scattered destruction evtrywhere. and
brought desolation to a thousand fire
sides. It disgraced the character ot
tho state ; destroyed her credit ; re
duced her public securities to torty
ceuts on the dollar ; branded her
name with repudiation and made her
name a hissing byword among all the
ostions. The perpetrators of that
atrocious outrage were never called
to any account, and their impuuity
was an invitation to ail others to go
and do likewise. For years after
ward the other banks, conbining
themselves together, corrupted the
| Legislature and robbed the public ac
; cording to the statutes in such case
made aud provided.
In the growth of the existing rail
road system is to be found the otfter
striking illustration of the unfaithful
ness of the legislators. Mr. Black
says of the company which was origi
nally organized to build a road from
Harrisburg to Pittsburg:
It swallowed up nearly all the
; properly that the State ever had. It
took it substantially as a gift ; the five
or six millions it paid was no consid
eration for the fifty or sixty millions
it got. The gift of this immese do
main was followed by a surrender on
the part of the Commonwealth of her
right to collect her own revenue,
amounting to millions more, and
which belonged to her as much as the
purse iu your pocket belongs to you.
I allude to the repeal of the tonnage
tax. I refer to that fatal, that perfid
ious statute which the Legislature,
the lobby, aud the railroad company
conspired to pass disarming the State
of her just right to collect the duty
which was her own of three mills
upon each ton of produce carried. It
was a terrible wrong; for it grouud
the face of labor to pour a great
stream of wealth into the imperial
treasury of a corporation which had
no claim of right to it. By such a
dereliction of duty on the part of the
Legislature that corporatiou has
grown so mighty that its little finger
is thicker than the loins of the Com
monwealth which created it. Her
stride is across the continent, from
ocean to ocean. Her head is in the
clouds, and the arms of her gigantic
power stretch out on either side from
one horizon to the other. The several
Legislatures which have stripped me
and my fellow citizens of our just
rights to clothe this corporation with
imperial power were treacherous to
their duty and basely unfaithful to
their high trusts.
But this company is not alone in its
infamy:
Other corporations have powers
i similarly bestowed, and nearly as
i great. Four of them have hmi the
j advantage of the loose legislation at
Harrisburg, so as to secure monopo
lies a thousand fold more oppressive
than that which made the name of
Bir Giles Overreach infamous in the
dramatic literature of England.
What was the exclusive privilege of
selling sweet wines in the reign of
Elizabeth compared to the power
which puts its own price upon every
basketful of anthracite coal that is
consumed in a country like this?
We are told that these are only a
few of the instances in which the leg
islature has proved treacherous ; that
one in a hundred hns not been men
tioned, nor the worst cases selected ;
and that the corruption has now gone
so far that the veto power is utterly
incapable of stopping it.
'l he members of the lobby and the
Jromotcrs of the doctrine of Addition,
)ivision, and Silence are thus sharp
jy portrayed :
The foulest birds that wing the air
have made the tree of liberty their
roosting place, and their obscene droj>-
piugs cover alii the plains about
them—the kite, with his beak
always sharpened for some cruel re
past ; the vulture, ever ready to
swoop upon liis prey ; the buzzard,
digesting his filthy meal and watching
for the moment when he can gorge
himself again upon the prostrate car-1
cans of the Commonwealth. And the
raven is hoarse that sits there croak
ing despair to uil who approach for
any clean or honest purpose

A Male Treasurer who (lives no
Security.
The absolute control which the plunder
ing King politician* exercised over the
late degraded Legislature of l'ennsylva
his i* writ illustrated ia the succe** which
a l ten tit-<t their audacious project for re
taining control of the State llnance*. Kv*
or since the state treasury foil into the
hands of the notorious Wiltiaui 11. *Keia
ble, whose proficiency in Addition, Divi
sion and Silence ha* given him [a reputa
tion, such as it is, throughout the I'liited
Stale*, the most remarkable confusion
ho* pervaded ilia aecouuU of that depart
ment of the State Government, giving
rise to very ugly suspicion*. According
to crib ial reports, a* was last* demonstrated
by Mr. Or*is in the Pennsylvania House
of Representative*, there have been defal
cation- amounting to nearly three million
dollar* since the King got the handling of
the public fund*, a period of only six
years.
The pre*ent Treasurer, Robert* W.
Mackcy, is a friend of Kemble, and abt
representative of the school of Pennsylva
nia politician* which ha* brought that
Slate into wide and well deserved disre
pute His term of office was about ex
piring, and there sa> no piobability of his
being re-elected , therefore the King, ill
order to keep their man iu place, procured
the passage ufa law extending Mackcy s
term until May 1, 1574
This extension of Mackey • leiua is a
great thing for the King in mure ways
that one. In the first place it prevent*
investgation into the interior atTairs of the
treasury which would follow a change of
troa-urers, and might prove unpleasant to
seme of those interested. In the next
place it will give the King control of the
public fUud* for another year, an advan
tage that no one understand* better than
those who have enjoyed the fat picking*
from this source during the past six year*.
And in the third place it relieve* Mackey *
bondsmen from all liability in case be i*
found to be a defaulter when he is driven
at last from the place to which he so perti
naciously cling*.
There are many unpleasant rumo!•
afloat regarding the condition of the Penn
sylvania treasury. It ha* been repeatedly
asserted that Mackey carries hi* own per
sonal chock lor f lUi.OUU among the asset*
oi* (be treasury, counting it a* cash, and
strung Administration journals have inti
mated that should all the secrets of the
treasury vault* be brought into light, the
people of Pennsylvania would be astound
ed. Mackey ha* given bond* heretofore,
a* treasurers usually do, which base barn
renewed from term lo terra, and of course
hit bondsmen are in the Ring But the ,
resolution extending hit tenure ot office'
d.s not provide for any security, and the
responsibility of his pre-ent bondsmen
will expire with the term for which he at
elected. For the nest year, therefore,
Mackey will have the handling of all the
money* of the great commonwealth of
Pennsylvania without being compelled lo
giva one dollar of security for the faithful
performance of hi* duty. So hit bonds
men are alt afe, no matter what hap-
One of the staiichesl Administration
newspapers in I*ennylvania recently char
acterised the last Legislature of that
Slate a* "the vilest herd of villains ever
seen in this nation." But what belter
could be expected where suck a creature

State in the National Committee of a great

A member of tho Ohio Legislature has
found un amendment to tho Constitution
proposed by Mr. Madison in 1789, but nev
er ratified by a sufficient number of State*
to become a law. It has a special signifi
cance nt the prtwent time and is as follows :
"Article Second.—No lnw varying |lhc
compensation for the services of the Sen
ators and Representatives shall takn effect
until I un election of Representatives shall
have intervened." When the amendment
was offered there wore only 12 State* in the
Union, (and consequently tho ratification;
of nine was sufficient to make it a law. It
never received but eight, and it is proposed
that enough moro States ratify il now, and
thus put a stop to future salary grabs. It
is an interesting question whether the ac
tion of those eight States still holds good, l
and if the amendment may still be acted 1
upon, since the Constitution names no limit i

SufTorated in a Limekiln

Life it) an Attempt to Have the
Other—Narrow Escape of a Third
Man who Attempted a rescue.
lost evening between six and seven
o'clock occurred one of those fatal acci
dent* which from time lo time startle the
community and which occasionally recall
the native heroism of unpretending wen,
who, in a moment of peril lo their fellow
creatures, are ready to ritk their own
; lives to save others.
The scene of the fatal disaster was Mr.
Lichtenwallner's limekiln, situated on
what is known a* the Hath road, about
half a Naxareth. The lime kiln has
been in operation for som. time past.| but
it was found on Sunday, that a* often hap
pens, the fire was choked and theie was no
draft through the kiln. Mr. Lichtrnwall
ner. assisted by a man named ilaldeman,
undertook to remedy this defect, and ac
cordingly, provided with an iron rod, he
mounted the top of the kiln and reached
dow nto still the lime, etc. Wbile in the
art of doing this h - was overcome by the
sulphurous fumes arising from the lime,
and, to tho horror of his companion, pitch
ed headforemost into the kiln. Ualdem.n
now made a brave effort to rescue Mr.
Lichtenwallncr. and in doing *• sacrificed
hi* own life.
He reached far down into the kiln, en
deavoring, if possible, to render hi* unfor
tunate companion some assistance, and for
a few moments strained with frantic eager
ness lo take hold of him. Suddenly he
was overcome by the noxious vapor, and
while in the act ef reaching, hi* grasp re
laxed and he fell seascle** Into the kiln,
Theodero Walter had happened tc be paw
ing the kiln and wa* near it at the tlrnc of
the accident. The action* of Haldemen
; attracted hi* attention, and when he aw
him disappear he quickly ran to the tip
of the kiln, procured a ladder, and with
out a moment'* hetilation started to go
.down. He actually reached Mr. Lichten
wallner and had raited him hall way up
on the ladder, when, to save his own
; life, he was compelled to drop the body,
and make make hi* difficult way to the
pure air. Paer* along the road wore at
tracted to the kiln, and soon Uie new*
spread far and wide, and a large number
of people gathered. The bodie* of Lich
tenwallner and Haldcman were recovered,
and medical aid wa* summoned. Dr. 1
Philip Walter, of Naxaretb, did every,
thing in his power to restore animation, 1
but without effect. —LeAiyA YnlUy Arte*.

Is there anj Cure
It is most encouraging to see men of high
character and distinguished abilities tak
ing hold of tho greatest public question of
tho day and seeking in earnest to find a
remedy for tho moral pestilcne© tha tnow
rage* among us.
On Sunday ovoning President Woolsey,
of Yale College, a man of voncrahlo years
and most eminent authority, opened the
j forty-seventh anniversary of the Ameri
can Home Missionary Socioty with a ser
: inon at the Tabernacle in this city, a brief
I report to which graces the columns efyes
jterday's Tribune. "Yea, woe is unto me
jif I preach not tho gosple." was his text;
and appealing for liberal aid to heme mis
sions, and especially to those in the West,
fie plainly declared that the promulgation
of the gospel among tbe pioneers and set*
tier l ol the border, and the building up of
Christian churches there, were matters of
indispensable public duty. "Failing to do *
such a work" he said, "would be a woe in
Wt thw AnVrt mkfWd off VbV*rtlnf tw*
tional corruption would thus ho ignored.!
During the war there was such earnest
nest, and prayer, and heroism that the
whole nation was lifted to a higher tone J
and it seemed as if, with victory, a noble!
career was open to the land. Hut, now
thai twiee the years of the war had passed
there was sueh corruption a* had never
been seen in the nation's history. Cor
ruption of public official* ; corruption in.
the parly which was foremost in loyalty |
during the war; alliance for parly end !
with men of known want of principle;
feverish thirst for speculation ; an era ofj
crime ; a weakening of family feeling ami
|purity these things were most ominous,
and especially sinee they wore demoralis
ntg in tlu-ir influence en the best of men." ,
1 All good men will cordially thank Pros-!
idenl Woolsey for these words of warn-
ing which are at thfisame time words of
encouragement. It is a great thing thai
such citiacui m he conservative, dignified
and able, should perceive ihe evils that
beset the country, and shouhi understand
and lelj us that it is not by silence respect
lag them, or by treacherous and plausible
palliation, that the republic can be pre
served.
WHAT IT Hit ALLY* A MoI'NTH TO
The extra pay vated by the | a *t Congress
to the President and the members of the
two houses amount* to gtuu.uui a year.
This turn i* equal to five per coat, interest
on eighteen millions el dollais. and thu*
eighteen million, is the exact aggregate
represented by this robbery.
If the Protidetii and Congress had put
their hand* into the Ueasury and stole:
eighteen millions of dollars outright, and
there made an end of it, the transaction
would be precisely equivalent to what they
have now done. They have not taken
eighteen millions in gross, but they have
taken the interest on that sum, and left the
matter in Mich a shape that it will betaken
•very year to the end of time unless the
thieving law is repealed.
What the member* of Congress have
dene i net merely to filch the beggarly
•urn of Jk'i tut apiece ; and what the Presi
dent has done i* not merely to filch hi*
WW a vaar lor four year*. They have
done thi*. and they have done more.
They have virtually run the nation in
dent hi the tune of eighteen million* In
order that they might grab their miserable
thousand* for themselves they have added
thi* great load to the enormous burden* of
I the people.
ls not eighteen million* too dear a price
