The centennial hill as passed the
senate appropriating a million dollars
for the celebration, tnceU with obsta
cle? in the house. The Harrisburg
special of the Press, of sth, says.
The Centennial project is endan
gem! by the action of the legal de
partment of the Pennsylvania, Read
ing, Lehigh Valley, and Lehigh and
Susquehanna Railroads. The attor
neys of these roads have just giveu
notice that they will appear before
the finance Committee of the Senate
next Wedneeday evening to oppose
• and, if poesible, defeat the two bills
now before the Legislature taxing
corporations.
Slate Treasurer Mackey giv an
equally positive notice that if these
bills do not pass be will not be able to
contribute any money to the Centen
nial.
In the House thie afternoon Mr,
Orvis opposed one of the tax bills for
the avowed purpose of defeating it
in order that he might thereby pre
vent the Centeunial appropriation.
The World has a report of the whis
key war in Philadelphia, aud heads
it, "Crusade in the Country.' 1 The
Gothamilta look upou ike Quaker city
as a mere inland This is
about as amusing as when South
Caralina seceeded, the N. Y. Herald
brought its despatches from that slate
under the head of "Foreign News."
The senate of the United States, on
6, defeated the proposition to appro,
priate 3 million dollars for the cen
tennial exposition—the vote was, yeas
17, nays 33.
In our state legislature the senate
voted in favor of appropriating 1 mil
lion dollars for the centennial, but in
the house, under the lead of Mr. Or
vis, it is thought the measure will be
defeated. Philadelphia, ruled by
rings, just now feels a little chop-fal
len. If the rascals in that city, who
have been plundering its Treasury for
years, uuder ring-rule, were to dis
gorge one half their plunder, Phila
delphia could put the centennial
through on the moat magnificent scale
without a cent from either the natiou
al or state Treasuries.
In the house, a few days ago, Mr.
Orvis administered quite a castigalion
to the talkative member from Union,
Mr. Wolf, for committing the impro
priety of reading a private note aud
shutting off debate by calling the
previous question. As the member
from Union is incessantly talking, it
ill became bim to attempt to shut
down the gates when other and far
abler members than he desired to give
their views upon important questions.
Union county's Wolf does mors howl
iog in tbe house than any other five
members on tbe floor, and be has thus
far been enjoying the fullest liosnie .
in ouueombe speeches. Mr. Wolf
will yet have to learn that it is notj
much talking that will make the peo
ple consider bim smart, for common,
sound seuse, is always embodied in
few words —many a mau has killed
himself by too much gab aud the
member from Union is fast talking
himself to death. We will print this
tilt in our aext issue.
Since Gen. Butler's triumph iu put
ting through the appointment of Sim
mons as collector at Boston—and
which threatens to tear up the radi
cal party of Massachusetts —the hero
of the Dutch Gap canal, has assumed
to himself the leadership in -the House
and spokesman for the administration,
and now cracks the party whip with
almost the same effect as once did
Thad Stevens, who bad
the Senate and House under his
thumb, that his word was law and
promptly obeyed whenever be issued
bis behests in favor of radical and ex
treme measures, even when hs admit
ted their unconstitutionality with the
same breath. No man ever had such
perfect control of the two houses of
congress, as had old Taps-worm ; rad
ical senators and congressmen were
Lis slaves, and feared him as doss the
dog his master. Ben.- Butler has now
taken the lash iu bis hands, encourag
ed by the backing up he received
from the administration in the ap
pointment of his friend Simmons, in
spite of the earnest protests of tbe
Massachusetts senators, congressmen,
and leading radical politicians. We
do not believe that Butler will find
the same obedieuce to the crack of his
whip as did Thad Stevens. Tbe
proud and independent radicals of
Massachusetts will rebel and art al
ready on the war-path. Never before
was there such a convulsion in tbe
radical camp in Massachusetts, and
ijmebody will surely be licked before
this little affair is over.
While the appropriation bill wu
op in the House, the other day, our
representative Mr. Or via, true to the
interests of the taxpayers, made sev
eral attempts to have the expenses
cut down. In some of these, however
where it affected radical appointees, j
the majority party eould not surtain
kirn, and the supernumeraries will be
retained.

There is one men in Pennsylvania, {
upon whose capacious maw the new
Constitution of Pennsylvania lies a#
heavily though lie had wallowed a
ten pound lump of putty. We will
introduce this gentleman to the fend
ers of the Centre Re|xirter, as Ilrandy
noscd Bighani. of Allegheny, or as he
now delights in signing himself,
"Thoa. J. Bighani, Commissioner of
Statistics". This Bighani is one of
Pemnyl vania'a political Bigamists—
a cra*y, hogs head Iwllied subject,
with a face red aud excitable as the
worst apecimeu of scolding turkey
gobbler that ever strutted a dung yard.
He was once a member of the state
senate, and wheuever that sedate bo
dy wanted a diversion, they would
•tart Bighaiu ou some subject, aud
hit cratv rantinp served to amuse the
{senators.
This is ft hasty photograph of the
chap who haa craiup ou the sloiuach
ou aecouut of the new Constitution,
and ha is about the ouly old cuss in
the state, who spills 00l his bile over
the new fundamental law wheuever
he finds occasion to sj*ak. This he
did at the late legislative reunion,
whore that kiud of bile was uncalled
for and out of place, but the old gob
bler had to have his rave.
But what we wih particularly to
refer to, is that he puts hie ill timed
dings into a public document, the He
port of the Bureau of Statistic*, which
ha* just come to our labia- Mr. Big
haiti will not dud it a part of hie du.-
lie* to put his flings into a state doc
ument, whether he like or dielike the
uew Constitution. There are lots of
**6cr men in the state who differ with
the brandy faced "Commissioner of
Statistics," as to the merits of the new
Constitution, and his flings in his re
port, under the brad of "Constitutions
of Pennsylvania," are just sutih politi
cal bigamy as Thus. T. Bigham
alone could be guilty of, and is an in
sult to that large majority of voters in
this commonwealth, who so recently
ratified that iastrnmeut. >Ve would
uot hava referred to this political
mauiacand his ravings, had he shown
common sense enough to furnish a
Report minus his flings, which are en
tirely uncalled for and out <>f place,
in a public document.
In auether column will be found
the report of the committee to inves
tigate the usury scandal, of which
committee our member, Mr. Orvis
was a member. The cemmittee
have fixed the crime upon the
guilty parties and we trust that it
will serve as a warning to unprinci
pled men hereafter, that under the uew
constitution their corrupt practices
cannot be carried on with impunity
as under the old order of thiogs.
The special committee of the L >gr
ialature appointed to investigate the
conduct of A. L. Guss, who ha 1
charge of the Cassville school for sol
diers' orphans has concluded taking
testimony. Enough and more than
enough has been developed to stamp
Guss as one of the mosl infamous
wretches in the country who should
receive the heaviest peuaily of the
law. We will publish a synopsis of
the testimony next week.

THE PROSPECTIVE BITTER EIGHT IK
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY—WHAT
THE BOSTON MERCHANTS HAVE TO
fear-sutler's plan for the
FCTUia
Boston, March, 4. —It has been ap
parent for a long time that a breach
in the Radical party in this State was
only a question of time. That time
is come. The party is to all intents
irrevocably divided. To-day tbe
followers of General Butler sing
peant of victory, but it is onlv on tbe
result of a skirmish. The battle is
yet to be fought.
The Boston merchants have every
thing to fear and nothing to gain by
the appointment of Mr. ttimroons.
General Butler hates the merchants-
hates them for their opposition to his
political aspiratioDi, so far as the Gov
ernorship is concerned ; and being a
strong friend of the moieties system
will make every Boston importer
writhe and sweat that has or may in
any particular violate customs laws.
Simmons is only a creature of But
ler's and tbe col factorship will be run
as distinctly for Butler's profit and
advantage as if the General himseli
sat at the receipt of customs. By
gaining the position he will now also
retail tbe Federal patronage in New
England, and the Republican party
must bow down before bim or repu
diate him altogether. Which will it
do? Tbe party itself in New Englaud
is as corrupt as the party at Washing
ton, and so all the talk about honesty
in the p*-'ty here is mere moonshine,
the historical achievements of the
party having been lost sigbt of, and
the "independent and honest voters
being very scarce indeed.
That General Butler means busi
ness is evident from tbe fact that
Butler clubs are already being formed
the first new one organizing at Mai
den. It is also surprising bow many
Sinimona men there now ere, Every
man at£(tbe Custom-house is a "Sim
mons man," but this will prove "too
thin," for when the time comes for
rolling the beads into the basket tbe
slaughter will be frightful. Every
important Federal office in the State
is now beld by a Butler man, and be
fore the fall campaign comes round it
will be found that every postmaster
of every considerable town will be a
Butler man. Tha programme for the
final battle will soon bs developed.
The General intends to make a four
months siege of the Slate House, and
among his open helpers will be not
only the Prseident, but Messrs. BufT
inton, Dawes, Crocker, aud Boutwell
who now has nothing to expect from
the Hamilton Hall side of the party.
ID view of all these facts there never
was n time in tbe history of the State
when for tbe sake of good government
and the purification of our politics
that the Democratic party should
girdle its strength about ita loins aud
be ready to take advantage of the
inevitable reeuH of the Republican
quarrel.— Worl^.
