The Lieutenant Governorship, an
honorable position, nnd one to which
an able man should be chosen,
well-nigh gets to be looked opus with
hatred by every sensible citiienofour
state, because so many fools have
already proposed au equal number of
popinjays for Lieutenant Governor
Ninty-niue out of the hundred radicals
and democrats already propose.! for
the place, would hardly make a tan
back woods debating club. Among
those who have been running this
thing in the ground aud who have been
making fools of themselves, are some
of the uewspaper editors who should
have show n more reuse than to make
light of the matter, by seriously pro
posing Tom, Dick and Harry for Lieu
tenant Governor.
We trust that none of the unfit
uauies, mentioned for the place, in the
democratic rauks, will ever In? brought
forward in our slate convention.
None but an able, sound, sterling
democrat should be nominated—for
the place is a responsible one, aud
requires talent and ability —uot
nincompoops and men of straw.
Not a Bit Ready
The Louisville Courier-Journal
says that "the democratic party at
this moment is half ready to lake
Graut as its uoroiuee." Not a hit of
it, is the time-honored democratic
party "half-ready" to take Grant;
not one-eighth-ready, no, nary a hit
is it ready to take Grant at all. The
democratic party has no such foolish
dream even —it was opposed to his
first election on account of his noto
rious unfitness for the place; it was
opposed to his second election be
cau>e his first term proved he was an
incompetent, and the democracy, uni
tedly staud opposed to Graut for a
third term because he is a salary
grabber, an incompetent, and nepotist
an j right hand maa of financial gam
biers, jockeys aud sportsmen. If the
Courier-Journal thinks that the demo
crats are "half ready" to take Graut
because he has just now stepped upon
a sot t of democratic hard-money plat
form, it is egregiously mistaken, and we
are at a loss to see [where it finds its
indications of it.
Grant has disgusted the eutire
respectable portion of his own party,
aud has set the radicals to quarreling
among themselves. His stubborn
nature, connected with his iguorance
of state affairs, is the cause of this.
He has originated nothing —he has
driven the Suraners, Schurzes, Fen
tons, Curtins, et al., from bis party,
and proven an unmanageable boor,
and as such the democratic party has
no use for him, and he wili receive no
invitation to step iuto our parlors—
yes, he must eveu keep out of our back
yards.
Grant may fight it out with his
party —the democrats are under uo
obligations to him, thank Heaven.
We have great and good men in our
rauks, statesmen fit to govern any
country and grapple with any question,
and these will be the chosen leaders
and nomiuees of our party, and not
the noted smoker by a long shot.
Fur the Reporter.
Hi nt. A. Wallace
MR. EDITOR. —AS soon a* it WAS known
that Centra, Clearlield and Clinton coun
ties formed our present senatorial district,
we heard but one opinion expressed as to
the person who should represent us in the
senate, and that was : We will have the
Hon. \V. A. Wallace, of Clearfield, as our
senator under the new Constitulii n. His
superior talents, statesmanship, devotion
to the best interests of his native state, are
acknowledged bv the honest men of all
parties, who would regret hi,u in
the stale senate which h~- has honered so
Jung by his experience aid e!oouen<-e.
But a neighbor ef mine was in BelWonte
last week and conversed with some of the
pciiticiani, who told him that Mr. Wal
lace would not accept the deniecratic
nomination for senator of the new district.
Is there any authority for this rumor er is
it only an interested trick of political as
pirants who are circulating this report to
deceive the people? You will confer a
favor on your democratic readers br let
ting them know the truth in tim t ana thus
enable them to prepare and act advisably
in the premises. A DSMOCXAT.
Keplt.—"W'e can inform our correspond
ent, and all who wish to know the truth,
that the Hon. W. A. Wallace is no office
seeker—he never did nor does he now ask
for office. It was the people of his county
and senatorial district, unsolicited by him.
tendered him the nomination and elected
him to the senate several times, and would
now re-olect him again if they had a
chance and keep him there as long as
Massachusetts did Webster, Kentucky
Clay, and Missouri lienton. They know
he reflected honor uu their senatorial
district, credit on the state, and became
the idol of the people by bis honesty and
brilliant administrative powers. The
report that he would not accept the nom
ination of the democratic party of Centre,
C.earflcld, and Clinton, >s a canard to
catch gudgeons, and is simply untrue, and
we do assure our democratic friends that
Mr. Wallace will accept the nomination
of senator if freely tendered to him, that
be has always acted upon the principle
and acknowledged the right of the people
to call upon any of their fellow citizens to
serve them in a representative capacity—
and that it is the duty of every citizen to
comply with their request when it can be
done without injury to them personally.
That Wm. A Wallace will receive the
nomination of Clearfield and Clinten is
patent, and wo are satisfied that the demo
cracy of Centre will make his nomination
unanimous and his election triumphant.
THE EARL OF YARBOROUGH
AGAIN MISSING.
London, June 5. The Karl of Yar
borough, who is said to be frequently
drunk as a lord, is agaiu missing, and
the police are now making earnest
search to find him. Ou Tuesday last
the Earl was in the House of Lords,
and a Deputy Sergeaot-at-Arms,
tl inking him in a worse condition
than usual, accompanied him into the
ante-room. A short time afterwardr
the Deputy returned to the room, but
the Ear! was not there. Since then
no one who knows him has seen him.
THE BREACH BETWEEN
GRANr AND His TARTY.
The correspondent of the World
say* that the breach between Grout
ami the rndieal party ha* been na
rurally widened by the financial posi
tion assumed by tlic former. The ef '
feet of hie manifesto is that a thunder
bolt has fallen from a not very cloud
less skv. The white house lias hurled
forth its fiery shaft, and senator June
has proved a sort of financial light
ning conductor. The conference com
in it tee sitting on the currency bil ,
; with the single \cepti*n %>f that
; thoroughly honest and able democrat.
1 leister t lyiuer, has been slum, red,
while republican inflationist* are ly
ing prostrate and republican aiili-iu
tlationists stand aghast and stu|>efied
that their god should have thuitdcied
at all, and especially that he should
have chosen Senator Jones for his
lightning rod. The President has evi
dently chosen anew path, in which
the Mortons, logan, Kelieys, etc,
are not likely to tread. Ihe lYtiu
svlvania politicians are especially de
moralized I they had supposed that in
the present congress rennsvlvaiu.i
would only have to sneeze and all
would bo awe stricken. But they
i have been snubbed most dreadfully in
the centennial scheme, and in the in
, tlation swindle. Their career was cut
short in trying to re impose the 10 j er
eeub rebate tariff law ef 1872. And
' even now they hear a reciprocity
■ treaty with Canada i iku e-!. ,'rtbs
. finished. Kellev and t ameroii
prophesy all sorts of dreadful things.
Probably the only true prophesy they
1 make is'that the party, as they undei
f stand it, which weans inflation, high
t taritl' ami subsides, is irrevocably
broken up, aud the reign of the Cani
, erou elan and the Kellev sans oul
* loltes has vanished from the land.

NEW PARTY MOVEMENTS
We gave a pretty full account iu ,
our issue ofyeatenlay, says the l'itta |
burg l\*t of 12th, of the two great
Reform Conventions held iu Indiana
and Illinois on the previous day, in
which they adopted platforms tttul
State tickets. So far as the reforms
' called for iu the two platforms ate
I concerned, they have for years Iweu
. proposed and advocated by the Dem
ocratic party.
• The Democratic patty has never j
1 been devoletl to the interest of any
■ particular class nor two cr three
i classes, but advocated the iutcr>ti
of all classes of men. It does not and
never did believe iu arranging cla?-e?
against each other. It is one thing to
oppose the aggression of a particular
• class, and auother thing to attack the
i legitimate rights and interests of any
particular class. To do one and not
to do the other has always been the
1 object of the Democratic party, and
the general national and local proa-'
L perity when it was in power show that
it was reasonably successful in its mis
sion.
All the interests of a community. |
" although they may widely varv, are
t common alter all, and to depress otic
i is to injure all others, or to set one up
j over the others and give it u unfair
1 advantage, is also to injure them.
'jThe I>etuocracy have been protesting
*' for years that tbo monopolies created
by the Radicals, exalting oue interest
, and depressing others would finally
result in just such a state of case as
' the Reformers aud Independents of
• Indiana and Illinois complain of iu
I their platforms. Had the advice of
; the Democratic t arty and pre.-s been
taker, years ago, and this pernicious
} system of monopoly vold down, it
would have been much better fur the'
" country.
, But it is not too late to do it even
t now. The people have only to make
} up their minds to go back to the old
system of home rule, State and muni
' cipal rights and the total abolition of
" the monopolies which have grown up
; during the last fourteen years. We
think that upon reflection our friends
g iu Indiana and Illinois will come to j
the conclusion that the surest way for j
' them to bring about the reforms thai
• they propose and dctnaud, is to join
r with the Democracy. The latter par
r tv bu a compact organization, aud is
devoted to the achievment of the very
V reforms that the lodependenls insist;
I I upoD. The Democracy does not pro
'■ j pose to abandon its organization, that I
is very clear, and the only hope that'
i the friends of King monopoly have is
to see their opponents divided up into
different organizations.
| There is no necessity for the crea
. tion of any new parties at this time
The Democratic platform embraces
| every reform that is called for bv the
people, and consequently, all that is
necessary for them to accomplish their
1 desires in the way of political refor
, ma tion is to step up to the support ol
Democratic principles. The work is
an easy one to perform.
Did the world ever sec an Admin
istration so insensible to honor and
decency as this of Grant ? General
Thsruas B. Van Buret) is collared and
kicked out of Vienna. He asks and
he receives an advanced position else
where. Minister John Jay, who col
lared him, grvmbles when he is only
told (in substance): We are unable
lo believe you told the truth nbotit
Van Buret). Secretary Richardson is
made a judge because he cannot de
cide against the Treasury robbers. So
it has been from the beginning. Tom
Murphy was driven from the Custom
house by the exposures of his misrnnr.-
agemeul. Grant take* hi* resiguatior
and keep* him for an intimate. Col
fax ia proved a liar and a perjurer
Grant writes him a letter of uodimin
ished esteem. And so on and so on
World.
The World speaking of the recent
financial manifesto of Grant snvg ;
The practical truth is, that while
the publication of such a paper by
such a President may be accepted m
pretty clear evidence that the drift of
(he popular will is taking this direc
tion, nothing can be more certain than
the utter uselessncbs of expecting n
permanent applicatiou, of sound fi
nancial principles to our public nffairt
from any other source than the elevu
tiou to power once more of sound
Democratic statesmen holding by in
telligent conviction the truths which
come to men like President Grant on
ly in meteoric showers.

Ma. Editor— Dear Sir: —Having ceen
my name announced us u candidate for As
sembly would say, 1 ain certainly under
many obligations to my friends for their
preference, but should 1 be nominated and

THE CONGRESSIONAL NOMI

'The Elk Kidgwuy Democrat of
last week emphatically eapresM's ilsell
in favor of 1.. A. MacVey, I ->q . tor
Congress in the 20th ilistrict. Ihe
article is us follows.
The tint* is near at hand when the
Twentieth t 'oiigt• ssioiial di-ti iet, coin*
posed of I'niou, Clinton, Clearfiehl,
Elk, Milllin and lYntie counties, will
ho called upon to muuiiiala a demo
cratic candidate l- i t otitis - Hence,
it is important that the attention id
the eiti. en* of Elk county should I <
drawn to the suhjiit, and th. merit*
,; of the gentle.mil who niav be named
for the iiomiualioii be disi u >< >1 by the

i such leader the moral of the party

I ! interests of the people be seivt-il by
1 the selection.
With due deference to the chaiue
tei aud qualification* i 1 other g.nllc
men of the district who may aspire to
the honorable distinction, and in the
least in the spirit of disparageincut,
; u Is our opinion that the gentleman
who most completely fills the bill of
I our wishes and leouirenrents is 1. A
Mackev, lv-q., of Clinton cuuutv. lie
| is a gentleman of fine abilities, of ex
cellent address, of enlarged exp< riei.ee
j and great personal populaiity. 1 hi
cation as a lawyer, lie combines with
: a loug business experience of the ino-l
'successful character as president <1
the Lock Haven national bank, in
which be is widely known far lr* lib
eta! and accommodating spirit, ptov
• tag that the succs-ful management 1 ,
ja t.mk w entirely consistent with the
greatest amount ef accommodation t
the public. On the subject of the na
tional finauccs, his position is <q en
and pronounced. Although i reed
iuto the mtlional banking system by
the taxation of the General Govern
ment, he has uever | übliealy approv
ed of the system, and believes that a*
, the Government ha> assumed the pre
-1 rogalive of furuithjng the circulation
of the country, the people shotti i Lav-,
wherever pi tit is to be made by the
. issuing of currency. He believe* that
' the principle of Cc>uati:> in the lights
of our citizens should be applicable to
banking, as well as other busiue*.-.
Mr. Mackey is a fine speaker, he .
an earnest aupportcr of democratic
principles, and his record shows that
he has been uniformly s.>, rcgardlci-s
..f side issues and irregularities of the
past few years that have been t -ted
i upon the party. W iih a thorough
knowledge of the characteristics cj
the people aud the busii.c* ii!lcrvt
of the district —with a comprehensive
mind, liberal spir.t and principles in
' full accord with the democratic par
ty, which he led with marked j pti*
laritv in the c ngrcssioual campaign
of 186£ in the largely rail cn! district
composed of Centre, Clinton, I.ycom
| tug, Roller and Tioga counties, in
which he carried his own county by
an unprecedented!v large iiiajmily —
! L A. Mackey, Esq , of Clinton coun
ty, combines all the elements of a u*<
ful and highly creditable represent.!
: live, of the democrats of the I weutn th
congressional district, and we it. st
, heartily recommend his nomination.
BRIBERY AT ELECTION.
Our Constitution jealously piovides
j against evil practices in election-, aud
lit is important that the mind? of the
public should be refreshed with the
salutary provisions, tiiat the spirit as
well as the lettei of the law may sink
■ deep into their recollection. It says:
Any person who shall give, or prom
ise or offer to give, to att elrctor, any
money, reward or other valuable con
jsideration for his vote at au election,

■ shall give or promise to give such con
sideration to au v other periou or j-ar
ty for such elector's vote or for the
withholding thereof, and any elector
who shall receive or agtee to receive,
for himself or for another, any money,
reward or other valuable cot sidera-
I lion for his vote at an election, or for
I withholding the same, shall thereby
< forfeit the right to votes) such elec
tion, and any elector whose right to,
vote shall be challenged for such cause
! before the election officers, shall he re

THE DjSAGTiEEMENT BE
TWEKN GKANJ AND.SHER
MAN.
The gossip in Washington is thai;
the first ugliness originated in Slier-,
man refusing Fred. Grant on his staff
This was resented by the President
refusing to make Sherman seeretnry
of war during the absence of Belknap
jn Texas, Since then Sherman has 1
been ignored by the President. The
last feather that broke the patient
camel's back were orders sent to Ar |
knnsoii by the President, directed,
instead of, as usual, through the gen- '
e a), to the Captain in command.
The fact camo to Sherman's know!- .
•dge while on the Howard court of in- '
quiry, and Sherman broke out public ! ,
ly and said he supposed the next move |
would be the President conimunica
ting directly with the privates. Tin t
next thing heard was the request to „
move his load quarters to St. Louis.
There was something pathetic in
the position of the German tlorist,
who, in the bitterness of his hvart, ex
claimed : "I have so much drouhle
mit do ladies ven dey come to buy
mine rose ; dey vants him hardy ; dey
vants him doubles; dey vants him
nice golour ; dey vants him aberyding
in one rose. 1 hopes I am not vat
you call on uncallant man, but I
have aomediincs to say to dat ladies,|
'Madame, I never often ec ladies dut
was beautiful, dat vns rich dat vas
good temper, dat vas youngs, dat vas
clever, dat vas perfection, in one la
dies. I see her much not.' "
It is now conceded that the House
will not pass the Civil Rights Rill, for
the reason that the President would
veto it. Rut what is the colored Re
publicans going to do about the mat
ter ?

seems to demand. The compositors of
a newspaper struck and refused to
work. ()n this account one or more

and the proprietor* sued the printers'
union for damages. The court decid
ed every jioinl of law against the tin

question, and it remains to ho seen if
the precedent will IK- taken advantage

Sl lIoRDINATION OF WOMEN.
That woman lis* not competed with men
ia the active work of life was probably be
jcause, not having the power, she had not
] the tlriirc to do so, and because, having
the capacity of functions which man lis
not, she ha* found her pleasure in per
forming them. It is not simply that man.
being stronger in body than she is, ha
held her in subjection, and debarred her
from careers ol action which ho was re
solvcd to keep for himself; her maternal
functions must always have rendered, and
most centinue to render, most of her ac
tivily domestic. There bs\c been time,
I enough in the history of the world, when
the freedom which she has had, anil the;
Iposition which -he lias held in tho estima
tion of men, would have enabled Iter to a.--;
•ert her claims to other funrlions, had she
so willed it. The mo-t earnest advocate id
her rights to b>- something else than what
-he ha tilth, i lo Veen, would hardly argue
that she has always been in the po-itiou oi '
a slave kept in forcible subjection by the (
superior phytivial force of nun Assur
edly, if she has been a slave, she lias been
a -lave content with her bondage, llul it
may, perhaps, he said that iu that lie- the;

ambitious to achieve popularity, vied with

I the earth, in eider te fittingly amuse tho
r masters of the world This li-J to the <-ij..
. tup of turning w>ld animals into the arena
to make them contend against one anoth
, rr or against men.
The first sroofi.. < f which the historians
, make mention took place in the year "bl
n i Meleliu* bad taken from the Car
| thsginians, in Sicily, one hundred and
twenty elephants The Srnate, to show
hasr little these animals w ere to be feared
had them first bela!">red w lh cudgels and
( then killed in the circus. This Spectacle
t gave the papulaco a taste for this kind of
divers >n Fortunately the e-.r-juests
of the republic soon enabled the generals
an I pri couult lo lay Europe. Aia. and
Africs, uvder contribution; and, toward
1 the s: d at the s I'.h century, after the
' foundation of Rome, troops of animals nr
" rived in Italy from every direction lions,
' tigers, leopards, panthers, lynxes, ole
-1 | liants. giraffes, gasellcs, rhinivcerisses,
' hippopotami, crocodiles, bears, bisot.s,
. etc , etc Then, frotn lime to t.me, on cx
traordinsry occasions, tho pc 'p!e were
■ treated to a grand conflict between mine
hundreds of into the arena
' together.
At other times, the animals were pitted
| against men tailed boast-fighters—i. c,
i men who followed beast-fighting for a liv
i ing They w ere distinct from the glndi
store, and had a lower place in the •• cin!
i -cale. Hut, in time, these men abandoned
a calling which was so dangerous, and it
iircaino nece-'arv lo supply their places
jrifh criftiinslsor prisoners of war. To
iler the emperors, substitute- were also
taken from among the Christiars. This
WHS a veritable windfall for the |>pu!ace,
who, uti are told, delighted in nothing so
much H- seeing the defenseless adherents
of the new religion, men and women, torn .
limb from limb by v*i!J beasts. Hardly
les-woi the people edified to soe the no
bles, the senators, and even the emperor
himself, "the divine" Cemmodus, descend
into the arena, and engage in mortal com
bat with the fiercest nnimals. Oemmodu*,
jil we can believe ihe historians of those
limes, was unsurpassed in such exercises.
Having the figurs and vigor of un athlete,
iha gave to himself the surname of Hercu
les iitid.wu* desiriousto juslify tno appolla-
Tiun by imitating the feats of demi-god—
that is, by exterminating a certain number
of ben-ts of prey, which surely were not
so dangerous us uu- he.
Pnihus, another of the emperors, ens
ceived the idea of giving the people the
privilege of taking all active part in the
-ports of the amphitheatre. He caused
the arena to he transformed into a forest,
into which he loosed, the first time, one
thousand deer, as many wild-hogs, M>:d as
many ostriches. Then the gates were '
opened, and n many amaturo* entared u
ehose, who killed and carried off what and
as much as they pleased. Another day,
instead of comparatively inoffensive game,
Prbu* presented the people with one hun
dred lions, one hundred leopards, one
hundred panthers, and three hundred
bears. Hut this time the festivities had s
tragie terminatii n. A goodly number of
tho hunters were attacked and torn to
pieces, while several of the animals escap
ed from the xtailium, and caused a fearful
panic - among the spectators, which cost the
lives of several. Finally all the animal*
were killed ; "hut tho frte was," says pin
historian, "grand rather ihan agreeable."
The consumption of animals at Rome, in
providing for the amusement of the good
people, from the end of tho republic to the
fall of the empire, surpassed the concep
lion of the liveliest imagination. Let us
iry, nevertheless, to g-t hi; approximative
idea.
In the 507 th year of Koine— lSC, years n.
Marc us Fulvius for tiietirst time intro
iuecd lions and panthers into the arena—
ha number is not stated. Eighteen years

Limited liability cotnpauies, which

The Governor ha* signed ihe Union
county hunter's bill and it is therefore
now a law and will allow the hunting'
,f de-er with dog* hereafter as is doue
iu ('.*ntre oud Clinton counties.
Law on Tri-po is a- follows:

That when the owner of the premise- shall (
become the informant then ono-h*lfot the
penalty shall be appropriated to the school
fund of the district in which tho trespass'
was committed.
Again, the 'dl-t section of the fish law :
Any person trespassing on any lands fori
the purpose of taking fish from any privaie
pond, stream or spring, after public notice
on the part of the owner or occupant there- a
of, such notice being posted adjacent to e
such pond, stream or spring, shall be t
deemed guilty of trespass, and, in addi-.i
tion to dulling" 4 - recoverable by lew, shall v
be liable to the owner, lessee ar occupant t<
in n penalty of on# hundred dollars foi fi
every such offtnee a
In explanation of this the legislature,
passed an act, approved May 13, la-t,
that the above shall he eontrued to ap
ply only to scull ponds, streams or spring
as shall be Used or improved by th own
er- or Inssev-s for the prcpogatian of flh or

SPECIAL DETECTIVE -The following i>
one of the a> t passed by the Legislature
Section 1. lie it enac ted, etc , That it
shall h lawful lor the district attorney of!
any county in this common wealth, with
the approval of the court of quarter ses-'
lions of the proper county, whenever said!
court and district attorney may deem it:
,noee-ary to appoint an odirer as a special
detective, whose duty it shall lie t> a-isl
in obtaining such evidence as shall be di
rected bv the district attorney for the
eommonwralth in all criminal cases, a-i
the court may direct.
• s Sc i! Much dctcc live officer.ball haw
all tho power of a duly (|uulltied constable,!
uiiil shall hold his appointment during the
pleasure of the t-ourt appointing him, not;
longer, however, than the term of the dis
trict attorney, on w hose recommendation j
he was appointed.
Svc. H The raid detective officer shall j
receive for hit services such compensation j
as shall be approved by the court appoint
ing him. This court shall order warrant
ior such compensation to he drawn by the!
clerk of the court on tho county treasurer,
who shall pay the same.
In the act making Decoration day a le
gal holiday, a proviso states that it shall
in no wise interfere with the usual pro
ceedings in reference to maturing paper
at hank. Ihe Philadelphia Ledger says
this lakes from the enactment the charac
ter of ale holiday. Making this day n
legal holiday, was at best but a piece of
legal folly,' Tho Legislature has ho right
to make holidays of any kind. In a free
country every man has a right to keep
holiday whenever ho pleases, and the at
tempt to compel people to keep holidays
is un arbitrary exercise of power unwar- |
ranted by the constitution or by common '
sense. 1
