opponent of Butler.
The democrats of the Seoate. on
last Thursday 15th,: relbstsl to vote
for the confirmation of Hartrsu
judicial appointments, and a 1 1 l> °*

The democratic senators, some of them
at least, are required to make up the
requisite two-third* for the confirm*
tion of appointment by the Gover
nor. We ihiok the democracy justifi
able in taking this means to defeat a
{jerrymander. The radicals take un
due advantage of their power in mak
ing the apportionment, and caa not
complain of tho course the democrats
intend pursuing to bring them to fair
dealing.

Col. Brown's friends are thinking
of bringing out the great leader of the
Ceutre county rada for the district at
torneyship. If the Col. agrees to ac
cept it, they cau't go back upon him,
it was be who "carried Ceutrt county
for Grant," and surely he can do bet
ter and carry it for himself. Col.
Brown for district attorney'
what a happy thought, what a
splendid figure he would cut,
dressed in broad-cloth, before 'your
honor" Judge Orvia. The radical
party must recognise the Colonel s fit*
ties* and claims. What say you to it
Colonel, will you give way to the
importunities of your friends in this
matter?
Brown in his Republican has become
sort of reconciled to Orvis' appoint
ment as judge, judging from bis last
week's {taper, iu which he passes over
the matter in a jokeing kind of way.
Brown's prospects for district attor
neyship may have caused this soften
ing down. He seems to be auxious
to practice before his honor Judge Or
via, and is not so much disgusted with
him after all.
Brown wouldn't the lieutenant
Governorship suit you better than dis
trict attorney, say? We're commit
ted on the latter, and feel like sticking
to you to the last ballot.
THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.
The Judiciary Committee of the
Senate reported back a substitute for
Mr. Sumner's Civil Rights bill. It
differs in some features from the mea
sure which the late Massachusetts
Senator introduced on the first day of
the session, and only grants equal
privileges in public, not private
schools, though it is questionable if
the bill provides for mixed schools.
It throws open theatres, all kinds of
public conveyances, hotels, restaurants
juries, Ac., to all classes without dis
tinction of color or previous condition
of servitude. The present substitute
removes the constitutional objections
to Mr. Sumner's bill, aud it remains
to be seen who will champion the let
ter's measure.
The House of Representatives pass
ed a bill abolishing the system of pay
ing mileage to members of Congre*,
and providing that they sball be paid
their actual travelling expenses to and
from Washington once each session.
Two thousand five hundred of the
leading business men of New York
have signed a petition asking the
President to veto the inflation mea
sures of Congress.
THE APPOINTMENT OP MR. OR-
The actios of Governor Hartranft in se
lecting a prominent democrat for a judge
ship, in a democratic district appears to
meet with the approval of both the repub
lican and independent press of the state.
We copy from various notices the follow
ing :
(From the Clearfield Republican, dem.)
Many of eur readers aie so doubt per
sonally acquainted with Mr. Orris, who at
the time or his appointment held a teat in
the Assembly as a representative from
Centre county. He ileed "number one"
in that oody of 100 "picked men" from all
portions of the Commonwealth.
(From the Lewitburg Journal , dem.)
He was the ablest Democratic represen
tative in that body, and his nomination
by Governor Hartranft shows the respect
in which he is held by our political oppo
nents.
(From the Pbila. Evening JiulUlin, rad.)
The promptness with which the senate
has acted upon this most excellent ap
pointment is highly commendable. Mr.
Orvis, during hit two terms of legislative
duty, has occupied a most enviable posi
tion on the democratic side of tho house
and bas exercised a large influence as a
legislator of clear judgement, cultivated
intellect and sterling integrity. Mr. Or
vis took a leading position upon his
entrance into the legislature, and has
maintained it with digni'v and ability.
His appointment to the bench deprives
the legislature of one of its most valuable
members. We congratulate Governor
Hartrenft on the impartial wisdom of hii
judicial selections, and have no doubt that
in thus choosing a portion of tb# judges
from tho best of the democratic material
at bis disposal he will receive the approv
al of the people at large, irrespective of
party.
(From the Phil a. Chronicle, red.)
Ths appointment of Mr Orvis for the
Contrs couaty district ia especially gratis
fying, because k seem e to • boar that the
governor has been able to overlook, in
view of the abundant qualifications of M r
Orvie, who would veij probably be the
choice of the people of his district for th is
position, the fact that he is the most con
spicuous opponent of the state adraiaisra
tion in the house of representatives. It
must be admitted, however, that there is
apparent ground for the idea suggested by
some of the country papers, that the ad
ministration was not unwilling rid
•fa member who had away of ask trig im
pertiasnt questions. Still the appeint
ment is a good one, and we may as well
give the goveraor credit.
(From the Beaver Radical and Argue.)
Hon. John H. Or vis, of Centre county,
appointed assistant law judge by Govern
or Hartranft, is a landing democrat but a
strong lawyer, and his appointment was
asked by the entire bar of his district irre
spective of party.
(from the Clinton Democrat, dein.)
The appointment of Mr. Orvia a* addi
tional Judge in this District was a juit
recognition of the will of the majority in
the district, for we believe that had that
will been expressed, it would have result
ed in the same selection, and this will no
doubt be verified in next November, when
he will, we believe, be elected to the posi
tion by a handsome majority. The lead
ing lawyer of the District, it was altogeth
er proper that he should be raised to the
hanch, where be will uo doubt prove as
able a Judge as he has beeu a fearless and
t&VtUigent advoaate.

When Mr. Toner. <f \\ ol morel and,

The Graugers of Indiana, at a re
cent convention iu Indianapolis, de
termined to iuiliat* a movement lor
the orgauisatiou of au independent
political party, anJ have issued a call
luvitiug the farmers aud industrial
classes generally to meet iu mass con
vention in Indianapolis on tho 10th of
June to devise ways and means to
emancipate tin? State from the evils
brought about by the misrule of party
politics. In the address iued by the
farmers they say that the old political
organisations are corrupt; that there
is uo faith to be placed iu their prem
ises : and that there are no queslious
at issue which ought tu divide the cit
ixeus of Indiana ; while the people de
maud a purification of local. State and
uatioual polities. In a circular which
ih >y are distributing through the
counties they exhort tho people, irre
spective of party, to meet in town
ships, counties aud districts to select
delegate* to the ludianapoSis conven
tion, aud in the selection of such dele
gates to guard vigilantly against the
intrusion of auy oue not Lnowu to be
in cordial sympathy with the object
of the movemeut, and to exercise es
pecial care to exclude all party man
agers and self-seeking demagogues.
The practical work of tba convention,
according to the terms of the call, will
be the preparation of a platform anil
declaration of principles unon which
all honet men may join iu hearty co
operation ; but it if not to be supposed
that the promoters of this movement
will be satisfied with a mere manifesto
of opinions. The State conveutious of
the Republicans aud Democrats are
called for July 15 ami July 17, aud
it will be seen that the date set for the
Independent convention is more than '
a month earlier. The Independents
will doubtless make nominations for
all the important offices to be filled.

The Loudon Times gives us a de
scription bf the Atmospheric Tubes
now in use in that city to convey
packages and the mails.
The length of the tube is just a mile
and three quarters; it is of a flattened
horseshoe section, five feet wide, and
four and a half high at tba centre,
have a sectional area of the seventeen '
square feet. The straight portions of i
the line are formed of a cast-iron tube,
the curved lengths beiDg constructed
in brick work, with a facing of co
ment. The gradients are easy the two
chief are one in forty-five and one iu
sixty, some portions on the line being
on the level, and the sharpest curve is
that near the Ilolborn station which
it seventy feet radius. The tube be
tween Holbom and the poatoffice lacks
one hundred and two yards of a mile.
Tho gradients of ODC in fifteen on the
pootoffice, iu no wise prove inimical to
the working of the system. The wa
gons, or carriers, weigh twenty-two
cwL, are ten feet four inches iu ieuglh,
and have traverse contour conform
ing to that of the tube ; they are, bow
ever, of a slightly smaller area than
the tube itself, the difference—about
an inch all round—being occupied by
a flange of india-rubber, which causes
the carriers to fit the tube exactly,
and so to form a piston upon which
the airs act. For propelling the car
riers, the machinery consists of a steam
engine having a pair of twenty-four
inch cylinders with twenty inch stroke.
This engine drives a fan twenty-two
feet six inches in diameter, and tht two
are geared together in such a manner
that one revolution of the former gives
two of the latter. The trains are
drawn from the stations by exhaus
tion, and are propelled to those points
by pressure. The working of the fan
however, is not reversed to suit these
continuously varying oonditions ; it
works continuously, the alternate ac
tion of pressure and exhaustion being
governed by valves.

KNPOFTIIK FINANCIAL DK
RATE IN mNCKKSS.
\N ashingtou, April 14. Congress
at last has reached a finality on the
tiiiancial question. The I'ouse to day
by a vote of 140 to 102 passed the
Senate hill without amendment pro
viding for 190,000,000 of bunk note
and legal-tender xpau-ioti of the vol
ume of paper money circulation. To
morrow the act will be laid before the
I'rosident for his approval. If it is
duly signed or allowed to become a
law without bis signature it bill un
doubtedly he the end of the iiuaucial
legislation for this session ofCougica*.
If he should veto the act it is not dit
ticult to predict the general result.
The almost universal impression
among the friends and opponent* oftbe
measure is that he will sign it. hve
ry legitimate parliamentary efunt was
made in the House to defeat the Sen
ate bill bv points of order to send it to
the Committee of the W hole Sev
eral were raised involving the gem i
al principle that as it increased the
public debt and indirectly involved
taxation, it was not within the consti
tutional province of the Senate to or
iginate a bill of this nature. The
Speaker verv shrewdly submitted the
itue to the House, which atfiruied by
a vote of 179 to fit! that the measure
had properly originated tu the Senate.
Then the point was constitutionally
raised that as it was evidently in or
der to amend the bill to raise addition
al revenue by increasing the bank
note tax, it was in effect a revenue
measure, aud should go to the Com
mittee of the Whole, but tins was
abandoned, and without further de
lute the bill was passed He fore pass
ing the Senate bill, however, the House
adhered to its bill for free banking
sud finally passed it by 128 to 11 <•
aud sent it to the Senate, where, in
view of the subsequent action of the
House on the Senate bill.if is likely
to remaiu unacted on. Before its pas
sage there vrcie two votes of some
significance, as showing the iudi-imsi
tiou of the House to eugrafl anything
on lluancial legislation looking t >
specis resumption. The tirst was nu
amendment pronged by Mr. Jv K.
Hoar abolishing the legal-tender fea
ture of the United States notes after
July 4, 187 d. aud providing after that
date that said uotes shall be redeemed
in and cancelled for 4} |>ei cent, ten
thirty coin bouds. This was lost by
70 to 171. The next was an amend
ment proposed by Mr. Foster, provid
ing that any increase of national bauk
uotes beyond 3a4,000,000 shall be
followed by a retirement aud cancella
tion of legal tender uotes to the ex
tent of 25 per caut. of suob increase
until the outstanding unpaid legal
tender volume shall be reduced to
$300,000,000. This was lost by 105
to 133. On this record ended the
firotracted struggle of the financial
egislation of the Forty-third Con
i great.
Only A Woman
It would never do tor Weal Point-,
ers in the army to admit that a lay
man could make any suggestion, tn
strategic maremeiiU without being re
duced many cubits in their own esti
mation, bui when it is gravely airt
ed that a woman and a Miss at that,
should hare furnished experienced
Generals a detailed plan of a cam
paign by which the Mississippi was
opened and the rebel power in the
Southwest brokeu, what humiliation
to the service may not be expected.
Yet it is true Miss Anna Klla Carroll
did this thing, for which she makes
claim for services rendered, and for
which she is undoubtedly entitled
from the War Department.
The Hon. Thomas A. Scott, Assist
ant Secretary of War, certifies to the
justice of the claim in tho most posi
tive aud unqualified terms. His
statement is worth giving in his own
words:
Pmi.Anxi.iMiia, June 24, IS7O
On ar about ths SOih of November,
Mis* Carrol, a* slated in her memorial,
called on roe. Assistant Secretary of War,
end „ggied ths propriety of abandon
ing the vspedilmu hieh wee then prepar
ing to defend the MitU*ippi itivur. and
to adopt i a stead lheTenneee ltiver, and
handed to me the plan of campaign. At
appended to her memorial, which plan 1
tubmitted to the Secretary ef War, and iU
general ideat were adopted. Oa my re*
turn fram the South-Weat, lsyjii. I inform
ed Mi*s Carroll, at the ttal in her memo
rial, that through the adoption of this plan
the country bad Leeu tared miliioa*. a d
that it entitled her to the kind contidcra
tion of Congreti.
THOMAS A. SCOTT.
Col. Scott repeats the unreserved
declaration in two or three different
forma. The Hon. B. i\ Wade is
equally cmpnatic. He says that Pres
ident Lincoln and Mr. Stanton both
informed him that the credit of the
Tennessee campaign was due to Mia*
Carrol. The Hon. O. 3. Browning,
Seuator from Illinois, gives the same
evidence with equal distinctness.
Chief Justice Evans of the Supreme
Court of Texas goes further into de
tails, giving the case of the memorial
ist far more fully and strongly than
she presents it herself. The venerable
Elisha Whitllesay joins in the same
representations. Such legal authori
ties as Reverdy Johnson and Truman
Smith say that the evidence is com
plete in fier favor. Finally, the Mili
tary Committee of the Senate in the
X List Congress, after maturely weigh
ing the case, reported through their
Chairman, Senator Howard of Michi
gan, that Miss Carroll had established
her claim.
Let it uot be *&id that Republics
are ungrateful by ignoring services
rendered in unofficial or unex|>cclcd
quarters, in the moment of national
peril. If Miss Carroll's plan, which
was certainly adopted, saved millions
of dollars to the country, it should not
reduce the pride of the army to admit
it, nor should Congress hesitate to re
ward those services, as it has often in
the case of bearded hi pels, with less
merit.

at the place of meeting rather early at the
and presently be was at < osted by a yom.g
w (nan who was ei \ neatly though p>r
ly dressed, and of a luoet respectable ap
pearance She began by saying "Aie
vou ready to go witn me now, sir'' aud
then in apparent confusion begged bit
pardon ter speaking to biut Mie atd she
had taken him for a gentleman the bad
seen iii the Dollar Store.
She then went on to tell htm that she
was 111 great trouble and distress "I have
a d\ing mother and a sister in the last
state of consumption, she said, "and 1
am ui,able to paV the rent of our room,
and the landlord threatens te turn u>
out .bis \erv night if I flo not pay.
"Here." said Mr. Morn. "she began to
cry, and great lean ran down her cheeks ;
there was no humbug there, for I saw
•hem He asked her bow much she
ow ed, ami she told him 1J Hut 1 don t
waul vou to give m# the money here, sir,"
she said "I want you to see for yourself
that I em not deceiving you. I never
asked fur charity before, but when the
panic cauie 1 wa* discharged along w ttb
seve ml other gir!, from the Dollar More,
and since then have heeu unable to get
any work 1 live enly a few blocks away
from here, etui if yoft cult spare the time,

"And, like 4 fool." said Mr. Morris "I
looked at III v watch, and, seeing that 1 bad
wt half an fiour to fcpird, I went with her*
A\> wrnt -A*t from Canal •ireH, an*l turn*
ed into a side street, and after a wbi.e we
came l a bouse and ascended two or Ihiee
steps, and entered a narrow hallway
There the women opened a door on the
light and asked me to walk iti and wall
until she tould advise her mother that
someone was coming to see her. The
r- in Was warm and comfortable | a lire
s • . burning Iu the grate, and at the fur
ther end thi-ro was a lounge In front of
;! . tire, and nearer to it than the lounge,
was a ,Ullage bedstead 'You will have
'to sit on the bed. sir, said the woman,
'at there are no chairs. 1 will take off my
shawl and ge at once to my mother.' 1
hud been warming my heads at the fire,"
continued Mr Morn's, "and at ths we
man's tuggeesion sat down on lbs? bed,
about two feet from the foot, the wemsn
-landing in front vf me, with ber shawl in
her bands. Hardly bad 1 seated myieif
w hen ths sprang upon me like a tigress,
throwing the thawfl over my head. At tho
same moment I felt my feel gresped by
ftrtio one under tho bed. i thou 101 l that
l bad to struggle for my ltfe
"l I ad in money in my pockelbook,
a draft for sliM. and a Watch in my
pocket. I ceuld not see, at my head was
rnpleteiy enveloped ill the shawl, but I
felt a strong pull at m* watch chain, but
aft. r ward 1 fell a ban Jin my pocket where
mv monev was. I made a tremendous
effort, and ;>•> eeJod in throwiag the wo
man over the foot of the bed. I then
-prang up at:J freed my fort and rusbssl to
tbu luriher corner ol the room. There
the woman again attacked tu*. but I

arc* pearled handlrd, silver-mounted
ftwm my pocket I swere that if any

room no d "ibt j>revonted thorn from *—•

"I then went to the d.w.r, and to my as
tonishment f-und it locked, bolted, and
1 arrod 1 drew the lu.lt and took down
the bar, but could md unlock the door, at
the kvv wa* gone Finally. I broke off the
atch ..f the 1 ck with the bar, and found
myself at liberty. 1 rushed out through
the hall into the street, and did hot slop
until 1 found a policeman. Thru a reac

by a mere cbat.ce. and besides, the des

unquestionably to the sacrificial elements
to urn most solema part ef the wqrshlp of

turc are without holiness; we have Loon
: aught that hy reason of the fall of our
great anieste'r wo all foil ; that wo are, all
of us, inheriting n certain something, and
among other thing* that wo inherit a want

and then gradually devaloli; rise up step

not mi* whit more aro diey deficient in

1 these, and the work of each man it to e*.

'' Mr. Beech ev proceeded to criticise the I
4 method* by which men attempted to de-j
velop tin* kingdom of God. Seine made]
" too much ue ol conscience, which waj
* like • New England housewife, that make*
1 the bouse o intolerably neat and clean
' that no man can live in it.
A man'* conscience it like ihote delcc

I they measure everybody in the place
* There are people with consciences just
* like that. You cannot thrive under con
-1 science Conscience i a step mother, that
knows how to wash, hew to d rets, how to
! whip, end the give* lessen*, lesson*, les
r ton*, lessons, but very little bwsum. Love
e it like a mother, and many a mother lake*
' her child to her bosom and melu its de
'• nravity out of it . and there it uior* in onr
1 love crush to make a child feel guilty than
y there it in all the spanking in the world
'• (laughter- -though the arm be strong and
r the will goed Men that are attempting
0 te build up the kingdom cf God by mere
conscience might as well try to organise
1 summer in \N estcbester County lake the
I whole ceunty at a job, and see that every
thing cornet up at the right time. Slay at
* borne ; only let the air be warm enough
r and everything will come cf it* own ac
* cord at the proper lime.
Continuing Mr. Reecher said that in
* churches too much attention was paid to
' external form* and net enough to thi*
' great spiritual element A man might be
° selflsb and mean and greedy and toll of
' all uncbariiablenes* and be considered a
* g*od church inetnber, "but if he don't be
