The Williamsport Standard, Joe
Furey's able and spicy democratic
sheet, of last week, pays a fine tribute
to Mr. Orv'u, on account of the em
minent services he rendered the (peo
ple of this stats, as a member of the
Legislature iu killing jobe and expos
ing the scheme* of the rooster* laet
winter. All our democratic exchang
ee contain articlee in the earn* strain,
earo one, which ie eurly, and spitefbl!
and wastes its time in eulogitiug roos
ters of the House, whoee company iu
editor has ever preferred to that of
honest men, notwithstanding iu con
tinued hypocritical professions to the
contrary.
The present Massachusetts I*gUla
ture, which should have adjourned
long ago having been in sessiou near
ly hve months is very mfech snubbed
by the Boston and ether newspapers.
The Post for instance,* says: "The
present Legislature is the mqsl stupid
one which we have ever had it doesn't
know enough to go home." And The
Advertiser: The grass on the State
House lawn was mowed yesterday
Isn't it about time for the legislators
to do a little mowing at home ?" Ever
since we can remember .Massachusetts
has been trying to shorten these legis
lative sessions ; and the only result
seems to be that they grow longer and
longer.
An unfortunate snake iu Teuneaee
recently swallowed a rabbit and then
attempted to crawl through a fence,
but was stopped by the iatarnal rabbit
when about half way through ; while
in this quandary another rabbit was
as one of our cotemporaries would say
canvenient, and the snake swallowed
him like-wise; so with a swallowed
rabbit on each side of the hole he was
crawling through he stuck, and was
killed daring the process of digestion.
This snake reminds one oi the Radical
party just now, with the salary grab
ofGrmntonone side of the fence and
the eloquent denunciation of that
grant larceny on the other the reptile
seems doomed to die with its belly full
of thievery.

Constitutional Convention
Philadelphia, May 27. —In yester
day's session of the Constitutional
Convention, the oath of office was un
der consideration. The motion by Mr.
Cuyler to strike out specific provi
sions were agreed to, by 35 to 33, as
also an amendment by J. N. Purvi-1
ance.
As amended tha article specifies j
the following as the form of oath to
be taken by members of the General
Assembly, all judicial, State and
county officers before entering their
offices. •
Ido solemnly swear (or affirm) I
that I will support, obey and defend ,
the Constitution of the United States j
and the Constitution of this Common
wealth ; that I will discharge the du
ties of my office witn fidelity; I do j
further solmnly swear (or affirm; that I
I will not knowingly receive, directly
or indirectly, any money or other!
valuable thing for the performance j
or non-performance of any actor duty j
pertaining to my office, other than
the salary and mileage allowed by law |
nor will I vote for or advocate the
matter in which 1 have, or expect to j
have, any private interest whatever,
directly or indirectly.
The article on Elections was then
commenced and partly concluded iu
the Committee of the Whole, Mr.
Walker in the chair. The sections
paAed provide for constituting the
election boards of a judge, two inspec-1
tors and two appointed clerks, each ;
voter to rote for but one inspctor.'
No person is to be an election officer i
who holds any position under the Na-.
tional, State, city er county govern- j
ments, or in any municipal heard or j
commission. Pending the vote upon
the third sect on authorizing Courts
of Common Pleas to appoint overseers
of election whenever the Courts shall
be satisfied that the appointment is a
reasonable precaution against fraud,
the Committee rose with leave to sit
to-day, and adjourned.
At 9:1-2 o'clock to-day the Conven
tion was called to order, President
Meredith in the chair, and went inte
Cbmmittee of the Whole on the above
article, Mr. Walker, of Erie, in the
chair, the third section pending.
The section was finally adopted, and,
as amended, is as follows:
The Courts of Common Pi ess of
the several counties of the Common
wealth shall have power within their
respective jurisdiction to appoint ov
erseers of election to supervise the
proceedings of election officers and to
make repoit to the Court a* may be
required, such appointment to be
made for a part or for all districts in
a city and county, or in wards or di
visions thereof, whenever the same
shall appear to the Court to be a rea
sonable precaution to secure the puri
ty and fairness of elections. The ov
erseers shall be two in number for an
election district, and shall be persons
qualified to serve upon election boards
and in each case members of different
political parties Whenever mem
bers of an election Board shall differ
in opinion, a majority of said Board
aad said overseers acting together
shall decide the question of difference.
In appointing overseers of elections
all Law Judges of the proper Court,
able to act at the time, shall concur
in the appoiutment made.
Sec. 4. The trial and determination
of elections of President and vice
President, of Senatore and Represen
tatives in the Legislature, and of all
public officers, whether State, Judi
cial, municipal or local, shall be by
one or more law judges thereof. The
Legislature shall by general law des
ignate the courts and judges by whom
the several classes of election contests
shall be tried in the regular manner
of all matters incident thereto;
but no such law assigning jurisdiction
or regulating its exercise shall take
effect as to any contest arising out of
an election held before its passage. (
Agreed to.
The majority report of the Com
mittee on railroad* and canals was be
fore the Constitutional Convention on
7th, Bitting as a Committee of the
Whole. After an anni mated discus
aioo the following aection was adopted,
the balance remaining to be passed ]

or corporation organised for the pur

other railroad, and no discrimination
shall be made in passenger and ,
freight tariffs on persons or property 1
passing from one railroad to another J
and no unnecessary delay interposal j
in the forwarding of such passengers |

THKNKW PRESIDENT OF THE;
FRENCH REPUBLIC.
Marshal MacMabon,unou whom has
fellcn the mantle of M. Thiers is he-,
fore all a soldiee. He has been uear-
Ily half a century iu the French Army J
and siuce the dav of the storming of
{the Malakoff be has.beeu iu pride ami
glory. Before the recent Franco-Prus- i
sian war MacMabon was regarded as j
; the coming man who would give the i
j assailauu of France a lesson in the art
of war. For some reason possibly the
combined reason that his military abil
ity was aud is overrate*) and that his
plans were thwarted bv imperial io
; terferaucc Jhe failed to do any thing
I worthy of even a fifth rate geuera) in
resisting the German advance, lie
suffered an iguomioiotu defeat at
jWoerth tha Crowu Prince of Prussia
completely out-geueralliug him aud
; his combinations led to the fatal day
jat Sedan. To be sure when he enter
ed Paris after the siege he performed
feats of valor that made him doubly
dear to the reactionary classes. It
will be a long time before the world
' will accept as anything but cruel and
; useless carnage the slaughter by thou
sands of the ill-advised defenders of
Paris against the Thiers Government.
' Marshal MacMabon was the hand iu
execution of this bloodthirsty scheme
I I and perhaps it would uot be unnatu
ral to infer that he had much to do
I with the conception of the scheme it
'self.
| j As an administrator MacMabon has
j uot been a success. He left Algiersa
liu a most terrible state. The disor
ders which broke out there ou the
- : close of the Prussian war were bis leg
- 1: acy to his successors. Every severity
• | that arbitrary power could think of
I I was executed in the harshest manner,
# but without reduciugeither the French
* colonists or th* Algerian natiues to
{ obedience-
To his new position as Presideot
MscMahon comes st the ripe age of
sixty-five—he is ten years younger
| than M. Thiers. He brings with him
to the task an immense reputation for
military ability and a great populari
ty due in part to his unpretending
manners. He is a royalist at heart—
a legitimist of the legitimist. Repub
licanism he has always hated. The
very name of 'liberty has been odious
to him though he has never been
backward in claiming the liberty for
him and his party to be legitimist and
to brand as criminals those who do
not honor. Constitutional
ism he regards as neither fish nor
flesh. Louis Philippe he served with
out respecting him or his ministers
In 184b he was lukewarm towards the.
Provisional Government- He took the
earliest opportunity of going over to
Bonaparte when he was maturing bis
scheme for [making himself absolute
master of France. Next to Henry V.
NacMahon thought Napoleon HI.
the best governor for the French. The
Marshal has never said a word in fa-
vor of the present republic. He has
studiously avoided all reference to its
| existence, and though it was said that
I he and Thiers were on the best of terms
jit was never pretended that he shared
j with the ex-rresident the belief that
| "tha republic " was the only possible
government for France.
The purpose of a majority, perhaps
of a large majority of the 390 delegates
• who voted ou Saturday for MacMahon
|at Versailles was to* make him the
| new President a second Jfonk—to
make him the restorer of the Bourbon
dynasty, But does J/acMahon wish
to become a "Monk"? That he is a leg
! itimist of the purest type is admitted
on all sides and it is not unlikely that
he may now look upon himself as the
holder of a power which will before
long pass into the bands of Henry V.
But will MacMahon be ready to carry
out such a programme a year from
now? M. Thiers entered' office as a
' constitutionalist and he left it as are
j publican. The taste of power is very
. sweet. ifacMahon in the army might
[wish to see Henri V. restored, while
j MacMahon as- President might not
raise his band to restore him. The
situation in France is in spite of the
popularity ot the new President a larro
ing. The Marshal has no claim on
the republican masses who if recent in
dications are not misleading, are in
the majority. The least indiscretion
on his part might lead to revolution.
The " Right," who feel elated by their
victory will not be slow in advising
the use of arbitrary measures against
their enemies, and unless the Preaiden
belies all his history he will not be slow
in executing such measures. He ac
cepts office as s party leader. If he j
executes his grest trust as a party
leader stable government in France
can only be achieved by severe fight
ing.
—The Evening Telegraph ofPittsbrg
of which H. Bucher Swope, United 1
States Cistrict Attorney for Western
Penusylvan a, is the editor, ic its issue
of Wednesday has a notable article,
double leaded and more than a column
long entitled the "Power of Political
Rfngs,' aod attacking all such. The
Telegraph admits that there is a ring
iu Pennsylvania, and that a few men
"Without intellect, education or moral
sense," control the Republican party
of the State"dictate its candidate* and
mould its policy." It further says :
"Blind, unwavering devotion to this
Pennsylvania Tammany has Ixcome
the price of public honors, so far as ,
the ring can control and the complete
ness of their organization and resour
ces enables tbem to penetrate almost ,
every county in some disguise or other. ,
Nothing is too high or too diminutive
to escape them. They are equally at t
home, whether it is a paster and folder ,
United State Treasurer ,
or Supreme Judge. They have apres- j
criptive right to the Legislature.—
City governments afford the most sue
culeni ?abs that bring grist to the mill
State officers are a convenience that
cannot be overlooked. They aim to
influence every Federal appointment
aud dictate who shall fill offices under
the State." The Telegraph thinks this
year a good one to break A
postponement of this duty it says mean
multiplied dangers to the parts "for
in a twelvemonth the question will
have passed beyond party control,"
All of which ought to be consoling to
those who fought the good fight and
failed in 1875.

If the above estimate of the public

! then we have wouderfuily tuiecott
ceived C. H. Brock way'a career as a

ber of the lower branch of the Legisla

led to tbe belief, taking his legisla

at Harrisburg was the verv reverse
of that attributed to hiiu by his friend
and admirer, the editor of tho Watch
man And we think, too, that the
Democratic press of the State will
uot endorse high souuding eulogium
which the Watchman haaseeu fit to pro
nouuee upon him. ASpauishadage tells
us that a man is to be judged by the
company he keeps, and thia is as true
i of ajlegislator as of a private citixen.
: When, therefore, a member of the
! Legislature consent* to become the
mouthpiece of ao infamously notorious
a character as Peter Herdic, aud ai-Js
| him by his iufluence aud votes in ac
! compliahiug his corrupt aud selfish
' purposes, although he may possibly
'oe above actual guilt, he is not above
strong aud well grounded suspicion.
| C. B. Brockway was the guide, coun
j seller and frisnd of Herdic at the last
teasion iu driving through the house
; his (Herdic's) infamous project tv
, erect tbe new county of Minnequa
| against the unanimous protest of all
the representatives from the counties
out of which llerdic's proposed uew
county was to be formed. No Koneti
representative can help to row Petei
Herdic's piratical craft and at the
aarne time preserve his reputation un
tarnished. This has passed into i
proverb at Harrisburg. C. B. Brock
way is also the same gentleman, whe
in pursuit of a little cheap notoriety
and at the same time to iusult Col. A
K. M.Clure, of the Senate, (made lbs
motion, on the night previous to th<
final adjournment, that he (M'Clure
be iuviled to address the House on
the subject of reform. In that hasty
movement Brockway aud his friends
Sam Josephs, Bob Titteraiary, el ia
yenu* twine, bargained for much mors
than they ever dreamed of, and wers
made to quail aud cower under tht
witheriog rebuke administered tc
them by the fearless and eloquent .Seu
a tor.
When a democratic newspaper like
tbe Watchman, whose editor is suppos
ed to be familiar with tbe damaging
record which several Democratic
members of the last House saw propel
to make for themselves, undertakes to
invoke public opinion in favor of a
political trimmer like Brockway, and
to endorse him as a "watchful, faith
ful and efficient" representative, w*
most emphatically dissent from iu
commendations. The Legislature
needs reformation, thorough and com
plete, and tbe people demand it. To
accomplish that great purpose let lbs
Watchman contribute all its well
known energy and ability.

INTEREST ON CAPITAL.
We extract the fullowiug remarka
ble facta from a lecture by Mr. W. P.
Groom, editor of the New York Mer.
can tile Journal and think they cannot
fail to be of interest as illustrating ths
rapid increase of capital when well in
vested :
Many men carelessly conclude that
three per cent, is just one half of six
peJ cent. But this is uot the case, at
will be seen from tbe following state
ment of facta :
If one dollar be inveated and the
iutereat added to tha principal annu
ally, at tbe rates named we anal! have
tbe following result as the accurals
tioa of one hundred years :

In Ilildreth's"History of the United
States," it is stated that Manhattan
Island—afterward called New Ams

wa* bought by tbe Dutch from the
Indians, for sixty guilders or twenty
four dollars (924), and this only about
two huudred and fifty yearsago. And
ret if tbe purchasers could have secure-1
ly placed that $24 where it would
have added to tbe principal annually
interest at tba rate of seven per cent
the accumulation would exceed the
present market value of all the real
estate of the city and county of New
York.
Again, if a man at the age of twen
ty-five, shouldjcorotnence business wit
a capital of one hundred thousand dol

thereto interest at our legal rate of
■even per cent, annually, the result

huvc everything pleasant she put her hand
in her pocket and bought him of his master
But she was shrowd enough to take a bill
of sale of him, fortanately, as it happened,
tor Jack turned out tube utterly worthless
and a perfect sot. But little need was
there for Nancy to go to the Courts for
relief by divorce. Sho knew n better way
than that. She owned her man and she
simply sold him to a slave-dealer who
carried him off to the far South-West, so
that the sharp Nancy was never bothered
by him again, liusbands have beon badly
sold before though not in ttii particular
way.

ed to be done j and to efface the disturbed
pail and to provide concord, good will,
and love, for the future, do declare and
covenant, each to the other, as follow* :
I. 1, llonry O, Bowen, having, given
credit, perhaps without due consideration
to tale* and innuendoes affecting Henry
Ward vteecher, end being influenced by
them, a* wa* natural to a man who reciev.
a* impression* suddenly, to the extent of
■ epeating them, (guardedly, however, and
within limitation*, and nut for the pur
pose of injuring hitu, but strictly in tbe
cofideiice of consultation), now feel that
therein 1 did hiin wrong. Therefore I die*
avow ell the charge* and imputation# that
have been attributed to me a* having been
by me made against lleary Ward Beech
er -and 1 declare, fully and without re
serve, that 1 know nothing which should
prevent me from extending to bint my
iiuM cordial friendship, confidence, and
Christian fellowship. Arid I expressly
withdraw all the charger, imputations, and
innueiidoot imputed at having been made
and uttered by me and tot forth in a letter
written to ute by Theodore Tillon on tbe
first day of January, IK7I (a copy of which
letter U hereto annexed)—and 1 sincerely
regret having made any imputations
charge*, or innuendoee unfavorable to tbe
Christian character of Mr. Bercher. And
I covenant and promts# that for all future
time 1 wilt never by word or deed recur
to, repeat or allude to, any or either of
said charge*, imputation*, and innuen
does.
, 11. And I, Theodore Til ton, Jo, at my
, ire# wit) and friendly fpirit toward Henry
C. H"* en and llcnry \Vnl Beecher, here
by covenant and agrae that 1 will never
ag/tiu repeal ky word of mouth or other
wi.eany of tlu* allegation*, or imputation*
or inuuendoea contained In my letter
t hereunto annexed, or any other injur!-
I out imputation* or allegation* suggested
i by or growing out of the*#—and that I

• heretofore dieting between the taid Ben
t ry C. Bowon and niytelf, or the taid

11l 1, llenry Ward Beecher, put the
i pat forever out of tight and out of rueui

, picion, jealousy, and elrangement which
have come between u*. It U a jay
to me to have my old regard for Henry C.
. Bo eu and Theodore Tillea restored, and
f a hafipinr** to me to retume the old re
i lation* of love, re-poet, and reliance to
each and both of them. If I hare taid
anything injuriout to the reputation of
i either, or have detracted from their ttand
f ing and fame at Cbrittian gentleman and

a and heartily covenant to repair and rein

' Mr. //rnry C. BotrtH
SIR: 1 received latt evoaing yoursud
' den notice* breaking my two contract*,
one with the Independent, the other with
the Brooklyn Union. With reference to
f thi* act of your* I will make a plain state
ment of fact*. It wa* during lha early
, part of the rebellion, if I recollect aright
I when you Aral intimated to me that lb*
. j Ker..Henry Ward Beocberbad committed
I act* of adultery for which, if you tbould
( expotehim, he would be driven from the
, i pulpit From that time onward your
! | reference* to tb# tubject were frequeal
, and alway* accompanied
lion of doep teated injury to your heart
. In a letter which you addressed to me
| from Woodstock, June 16, 1863, referring
. to thi* tubject you *aid . "1 eometimee feel
that 1 mutt break tilence ; that I mutt no
longer tuflfer at a dumb man and be made
, to bear a load of grief moel unjuttly. On*
word from me would make a rebel
, lion tbrougbout Chriftendom, I bad al
i motl *aid, and you know it You have
Jutl a little of the evidence from the great
I voluma in your po*tea*ion lam not pur
. tuing a phantom—but Tolemuly brood-
I ing.over en awful roaltty."
Subsequent to thi* letter and on frequent
interval* from thi* till now, you have re
petted the ttalemcnl that you could al
' any expel llenry Ward Beecher
from Brooklyn. You have reilarated the
•anio thing, not only to mo, but to other*.
Moreover; during the year ju*l cloaed
your letter* on the *ubject were marked
with more feeling] than heretofore, and
were not unfrcquently coupled with your
emphatic declaration that Mr. Beecher
ought not to bo allowed to occupy a pub
lic petition a* a Cbrittian leaoher and
preacher.
On tha 25th of December, 1870, at an
interview in your boute, al which Mr
Oliver Joknoa and I were preeent, yeu
•poke freely and indignantly againtt Mr.
Beecher a* an untafe visitor in the fami
lie* of hi* congregation. You alluded by
name to a woman, now a widow, who**
husband* death you did not doubt wa*
haatened by hi* knowledge that Mr.
Beocber had maintained with her an im
proper intimacy. A* if to leave no doubt
ontbemindtof Mr. Jehnton or mytelf,
you informed u* that Mr. Beecher hed
made to you a confession of guilt, and had
with tear* implored ycur forgiveuett.
After Mr. Johnton retired from thi* in
terview you related 10 ma the caae of a
weman of whom you (aid (a* nearly a* I
can recollect yeur word*) that "Mr.
Beecher took her in hi* arm* by force and
threw her down upen the tofa." • •
During your recital of thi* tale were fill
ed anger toward Mr. Beecher. You
raid with terrible eiuphatia that he ought
not to remain a week longer in hi* pulpit.
You immediately suggested that a demand
•hould ba made upon him to quit his sacred
office. You volunteered to bear to him
tucb a demand in the form of an open let
ter which you would pratent to him with
your own hand and you pledged youreelf
to iu*tain the demand which thi* Utter
• hould make- namely, "That he akould,
for reasan* which he explicitly knew im
mediately ceaio irem hi* ministry at Ply
mouth Church and ratire from Brooklyn."
The firtl draft of thi* letter did not contain
the phra-o "for reaton* that he explicitly
knew," and tlieae word* or word* to thi*
effect were incorporated in a *ecoad at
yvur motion. You urged furthermore,
very emphatically that tha letter ahould
demand not only Mr Boechar't abdication
of hi* pulpit, but the cemtion of hi* writ
ing for the ChrUtain Union—a point on
which yon were overruled. Thi* lettei
you protonUdto Mr. Beecher at Mr. Free
land'* house. Shortly after it* presents
lion you nought an interview with main
the editorial office of the Brooklyn Union
during which with unac countable emo
tion in your manner your face livid with
rage your threatened with Uud voice that
if ever I itiould inform Mr. Beecher if the
xtatement* which you made concerning
hi* adultery orabould compel you to ad
duce tho evidence on which you agreed to
sustain the demand for Mr. Beecher'* with
drawal from Brooklyn you would immedi
ately deprive me of my engagement to
writ# for the Independent and to edit the
Brooklyu Union and that in can I should
aver attempt to enter the oftoet of theit
Jurnalojrou would have too ejected by form, 't
1 1 told you that I obould inform Mr. Heeeb*
er or anybody alaa according to tbo die.

ly bad your violent worda raaood ringing
in my oar* when I received your summt
ry notice* brooking my contract with tbo j
l/ulfpnuUnt and the Brooklyn {'men. To

' detail* of wbicb have been given in the
• Tribune.
In 1853 the writer of this traveled through
the Modoc country, end became a resident
in Southern Oregon, not far from the scene
of the present Modoc war. The settlement
of the country had then only juH began
and with many others, I went there with
tbe understanding that tbe Government
had uiade tieaty provision for lb# Indians,
but we soon found out our mistake Tbe
war of race* bad begun and the spirit of
tbe golden rule was extinct. To shout In.
Diana, and take their weir.en end horse#
and children for menial servitude was rep
utable andjth# men who killed tbe greatest
aumbe reclaimed the moHhonorable distinc
tion. lu regard to tbe poisoning by Ben
Wright about wbicb there be* been so
much dispute. I was informsd by Dr
Ambrose, who in 1866 was agent for the
Indians in Rogue River Valley that Ben
Wright with 16 white men and two In
dian interpretors went among the Modoc'
and invited thorn *te assemble to make a
treaty of peace. A good aumber (abou 1
400) of their chiefs end other* with their
squaws and little one* collected together
He caused seven oxen to bo killod and roas
ted and seasoaed with strychnine and then
, invited tbe Indian* to partake of the feast
but as one of tbe interpreters bad discover
ed tbe fiendish plot, be gave information to
tbe chiefs of hi* poopla, and they wisely
refused to eat. The murderer* being de
feated txi one way accomplished their ob
ject in another. This is but one out of
many similar case* known to the writer in
wbicb Indian chief* met a# peace commis
sions.* to negotiate treaties for their re
spective tribe# end were deliberately mur
dcred by so-called Christian men. So fre
quently wa* this tbe c#we that Cept. Jack
had just reason to believe tbet treachery
we* the while man's rule and dot the ex
ception. There were fact# connected with
tbe shooting of Gent. Canby and Thomas
which when properly considered, will do
much to modify our judgment if not to
clear Cept. Jack from guilt and blame for
the sad result John Bxbox.
