U.S. Senator.
Christianey, is the name of the new
Michigan senator in place of "bloodlet
ting" Chandler.
Tom Rallard. a noted counterfeiter,
was convicted in the Cnited States court
and sentenced to thirty years' imprison

What do youghink of it. the adiulnL

tax will ho levied on certain neceaaary
articles of ixmsuuiption, such as tea, oof

of expenditure* is the doubling of the
Rre.-iilent's )*y and the salary grab.
This is all fight, becauae Grant and his
party an- doing it. Raise the salaries
and then tax codec to get it out of the
people.
Zack t handler, late 1 S. Senator
from Michigan, failel in re-ele>-tion.
This is the Zack who before the late civ
il war w rote a letter saving that he
''thought a little bloodletting would do
.ood," but when the bhKMilettiiig came
..t! he never went near enough tube in
danger of having a weed top of hi* juice

Mr. Wallace v* ill not resign hi* -*'< in
the senate Wforv the 4th of March next.
To cuunilt his <xw n feeling*, his resigua
tioii. no joabt, would have taken place
iiuntetliatelr after his election as I . >.
Senator, but he will hold ou at the so
licitation of his constituents ami lecaus*-
it s> the earnest desire of his brother
-enators ami of leading citiaena general
ly throughout the state. This a ill save
several thousand dollars for holding a
special election in this district, and leave
the vacancy to bo filled at the general
electionin November. to the distnav of
some whose mouths were watering to
become his Mmwor, and who liad many
niec little plans laid to slip into his
shoes, although not able even to prop

Walker township has a weighty re
sponsibility upon its shoulders —a can
didate has actually sworn that "if if did
not instruct for Mm, he would go hack
on the party." Well that would not !>e
his first "going back on the pty." But
w liat kind of meat doth this fellow eat,
that he should speak thus?
The Senatorial election at Harrisburg,
last week, is another evidence of the im
portance of democrats remaining faith
ful to their nominations; the loss of a
few more members would have been the
defeat of Mr. Wallace for I". S. Senator.
Had the plot succeeded last fall, by
treacherous men in our party, to defeat
the district nominations ami the county
ticket, a radical would now probably la
the new Senator from Pennsylvania, as
our majority would have been cut dow u
to -t narrow a margin, as to place it in
the power of theCameronsto carry their
joiut by money.
The Kejtorter last fall, pointed out to
the democracy of Centre county the ob
jH-t of the Modoc movement and the
secret and open assistance it received
fn.ni a few treacherous democrats in our
county who conspired to defeat Mackev,
Wallace, and to drag down the county
ticket, oat of sheer spite because they
were disappointed |for office, and far
abler and better men nominated, and
thus to make it appear that the party
<-annot get along without them, and un
less it always keep them at the crib. Let
the men who hatched the movement be
kept in remembrance —some of them
will soon be asking for office again.
The greater portion of the radical
journals and members of congress en
dorse Grant's Louisiana outrage. Of
these we can not believe many to be sin
cere—they endorse it out of fear of the
Presidents displeasure and on account
of their party. They know it was an in
terference unwarranted by law, and in
violation of the constitution and laws.
But it will not do to admit this. Al
though such distinguished and able
republican leaders as Bryant, Evarts,
and others denounce the outrage and
three cabinet members wash their hands
of it. Those that defend the doings of
banditti Sheridan cite nothing from the
constitution or laws to show that the
president's conduct has the sanction of
law. In another column we print the
report of the congressional sub-commit
tee, composed of two republicans and
one democrat, which recites the unjus
tjge that has been practiced upon the
people of Louisiana.
THE PA TR ONS SPEAK.
The Patrons of Husbandry of Louisi
ana and Mississippi have issued an ad
dress to the order throughout the United
Htates endorsing the report of the Sub-
Committee of Congress. The address
concludes as follows : "Believe us, this
report, made by gentlemen of the North
and intelligent Congressmen of both po
litical paries tells the truth. We refer
it to you, and trust every Patron to
whom this appeal may come may give
it an attentive reading."
The clergyman of all denominations,
chamber of commerce and all other
boards pronounce the stories against the
southern people malicious falsehoods,
and now come the Patrons of Husband
ry and add their testimony. We think
this makes the evidence against Grant
and banditti Sheridan too strong for
doubt.
The little campaign now gaing on, haz
unearthed tome "promising" thing*.
Promiaes have dropped into nearly every
township ; about a dozen fellows have
been "promised" the next Sheriffalty, ten
or fifteen the next treaaury-thip half doz
en the prothonotaryihip, and so en, if they
"help me get the instructions" in their
townships. This beaU the "promised"
land all hollow, for good things that are
to be showered upon the idolatrous just
out of Egypt'
Europe looks warlike. The London
Times of 17, in its leading editorial article,
says: "In the gloom surrounding us one
thing isjserceptiole. All men are arming,
Germany is arming en masse, and sur
rounding nations, including the best part
ofthe world, cannot do otherwise The
momentary dreams of peace have fled
away. Germaay recognizes the stern ne
ve.-sity that what she wop by nam
only hold by arms, and while aims are /n
her hMH? The Times ennftmses that 1
raise a third arjny
hopes are in heavy.
IH/ A -WALLACE
The rlrdioii of Mr. Wallace it- I s i
Senator from Pennsylvania, i* well re
ceived by the democrat* in general, *lw ,
a large class of the republican* admit
that the honor :e conferred upon a
gentleman of ability ami purity of char
acter. We have ntanv gets! ami able
democrat* in thia eotninonwealth who
would have been tit for the position, hut
there wa* no one more deserving than
ho upon whom the distinguished honor
ha* lwen conferred.
Mr. Wallace has litliorod imre earneat
ly ami effectually to keep the denuwrat
ie party of Pennsylvania in a healthy
condition than tytv other leader that can
l*e mentioned. To this work he has de
rated himaelf 111 aunahine and rain for
the lat twelve rear*, ami a*' know of
no man who would have a<voplcd the
task ami been willing to |crforiu the la
bor* that were performed by Mr. Wal
lace, amid alt the discouragement* ami
disadvantage# which he had to encoun
ter as t'haittuan of the State Central
Committee; during the name |*>riod he
also sUeil as the leader in the state sen
ate where his integrity and unlwrnling
devotion to the public interest- was not
only the pride of the detiKa racy hut also
gained for him the rv>|eol of the opposi
tion.
With Mr. Walhnv in the I', s. Senate,
tVnnsylvania will have a true reprcsvu
tative, and the democracy one win- will
continue in the work of building up the
|artv and securing the triumph of those
great principle* of which he is one of the
most able champion*. Mr. Wallace will
lie missed in the state senate.

In the senate, Mr. Krmentrout offered

adopted:
That the committee of finance be in

holding no session in 1878, except a spe

If this should be finally adopted, the

COMMON SCHOOLS
The report o( tho Superintendent of
Common Schools for the year ending June
1,1874, shows that the number of schools
in the state it 16,641; of these, 5,606 arc
graded. There are 19,327 person* employ
ed as teachers. The average salaries of
male teachers, per month, are $42.95, and
of female teachers 85,97. The length of
the school term is nearly 64 months. The
nnmbar of pupils is 850,774, with an aver
age attendance of sixty-seven per cent.
The average coal of tuition for each pupil
was 96 cents per month. The aggregate
cost for tuition, buildings, ftiel, contingen
cies and expenditures of all kinds $8,847,-
939.88, The estimated value of school
property in the state is $22,569,068.
There has betn an increase, during the
past school year, as compared with the
previous year ot 386 schools, 279 graded
schools, 238 teachers and 16,754 pupils.
The cost of tuition was increased $202,-
510,66; and the cost of buildings, fuel and
contingencies, etc., $301,296.91. The in
crease in the average attendance of schol
ars was nearly double that of new pupils,
which shows an increased efficiency of the
system.
The following #tatement indicates the
extension ofthe educational system in the
past ten years:
1865. 1874
Cost of tuition... $2,615,628,62 $4,527,308,03
School bouses...... 466,068,06 2,100,614.87
Total cost 8,614,238,56 8,847,939,88
No. of graded school*. 1,743 5.586
Daring the same time the average sala
ries of male leachera have increased thirty
per cent., and female teachers forty per
cent. The increase of the cost of tuition
per head has been twenty-seven cents per
month, since 1866, and the increase in
average attendance haa been about ten per
cent. The comparison it note-worthy as
showing the tendency to provide for the
physical comfort of scholars. The expen
diture for tuition In 1866 absorbed over two
thirds ofthe whole amount of school tax
and appropriations, while in 1874 it barely
exceeded one half. The expenditure for
school house* in 1866 amounted toless than
one-seventh of the gross school revenue,
while in 1874 it exceeded one-fourth.
These results are exclusive ofthe amounts
appropriated by the state for normal
schools and the soldiers orphan schools,
which swell the amount of total cost by
half a million of dollars.
During the past year 664 new school
houses were erected; 1,701 school houses
are reported aa "unfit for use;" 6,681 "bad
ly ventilated;" 1,968 are properly construc
ed .and furnished, 2,666 have seats and
desks so badly constructed as to compel
children to violate the laws of health in
using them.
There are in the state 73 separate schools
for colortd children, with an attendance
of about 2,600 pupils. Text books are uni
form in 12,1645ch0015; the Bible is real in
12,129.
The whole number of students attending
Normal school* was 3,856; the number of
graduates during the year 131. The dis
position on the part of the legislature to
multiply the number of Normal schools
bsyond tha requirement* for the supply of
trained teachers is deprecated by the state
superintendent.

Thursday at midnight, at Island 08, in the
Mississippi. She is now on the bar in, 7

cargo is being unloaded.

Washington, Jamtari 1V The sub
committee ap|Hiinted to visit New Or
leans for tlie purp-e of investigation
has re|H>rted to the general committee.
.Vfler giving a full account of the action
oft he Returning Hoard, the committee
rejH'rt that they are constrained to ni>
the action of the Hoard to rejecting re
turns in the |soi*h of Rapides and giv
ity: seats for that parish to Republican
candidates was unfair and without war
rant of law,
If the committee wa re to go In-himi
the pa|H-r* before the Hoard ami is insid
er the ullegisl charge of intimidation on
proofs before the committee their tiud
ing would nmwwhlt lie the same.
Rapides jiarish was taken a* a sample
parish of intimidation, many witnesses
frotu which, of lioth parties, -how lc
--yond ipie-tinii that there was a free, full,
fuir ami jwaceablc election ami n-gistra
tion. There araa no evidence of any in
timidation of voters prart iced on the day
of election, although it wa* asserted that
the intimidation of colored men liefore
the election had la-en adktol liy threat*
of refusal to employ themortodiseharge
them if they voted the Republii-an tick
et. Nil evidence either of discharge or
of refusal to employ wa. produced. t'er
taiit witnesses themselves, every one of
fice holders, testified generally to such
action, hut hardly■any one was tdde to
specify it single instance on which he
heard any employer mi threaten or dis
charge any voter or know n of any em
ployee being so threatened or discharg
ed. Not one single colored man through
out the entire, parish was produced to
testify either to sueh threat or to the ex
ecution of such purpose whether Wfore
or afler the election.
THE IKMRD IVI MM IIS M*\\ ILUtUJkL ACT*.
The cummittee alluded t> ttutnerous
illegal acta of the Returning lluael ami
says: Again we an- constrained to say
that the action of the Returning Board
on the whole was arbitrary, unjust, and
in our opinion illegal, and that this ar
bitrary. unjust and illegal action alone
prevented the return by the hoard of a
majority of Conservative memliers to the
la>wer House.
The committee confined their investi
gation to two jarishcs and find that no
general intimidation of Republican vo
ters was establi-hed. No colored man
was produce*! who had been threatened
or assaulted by any Conservative l>e
eause of political opinion or discharged
from employ nieut tr refused employ
ment. Of all those who testified to in
timidation there wa# hardly any one
who of his own knowledge could specify
a reliable instance of such acts and of
the white men who were produced to
testify generally on such subjects very
nearly all. if not every single one was a
holder of office. No witness*-*, we be-j
licve, succeeded in naming in any jmr-t
ish

who were not themselves offlce-hoMeiv
or related to the office-holders r those
having official employment. Dn the
other bund, applanations to the 1 idled
States Commissioners in various parish
es not only for alleged crimes, but be
catiae of allege-1 threats of *lie-harg*- and ,
non-employment or other interference
with political preference were frequent.j
("{sin these applications warrants wer*
! often iwned and white citizens arrested j
and bound over for trial. In many lo
calities Federal troojis were detained for
service under marshals ami not only
made many am-sts immediately before
the election, but reports an- that they
were coming to particular neighbor
hoods about the time of the election for
the purpose of making Mich arrests
which served, as the Conservatives
claimed, to Intimidate and sometime#
even to pnslucr a stampede among
white voter#. Ilow differently the two!
parties look upon the same fact will ap
pear from the testimony of Mr. Riddle.
He was United Stat-is Commissioner in
the jmrish of Iberia, shortly In-fore the
election, upon application of colon-d per
sons, he issued a largo number of war
rants. He considered it his duty, upon
the arrest of the persons charged to re
quire bail from sureties who |>ssv*sed
landed estates within the i>arisli certified
by the Assessor of the parish to la- of
sufficient value, and of wljich the title
was approved by the Register of Deeds.
This rule necessarily produced delay in
procuring bail for persons arrested, and
he was waited on in one case bv a
PROCESSION OF CITIZENS
who offered him a bond sig4Fi by every
man in the procession. This he regard
ed as in derision of his proceedings, and
refused to receive the bond. He was
called as a witness to prove that any in
timidation existed in that parish. He
had himself no knowledge of any act of
the kind except this procession which he
thought was calculated to intimidate
colored voters. He had no idea that ar
rests made under his warrants and pro
ceedings under them had any effect in
interfering with Conservative voters.
On the other hand the Conservatives in
that neighborhood thought about this
just the reverse. Indeed, the reports of
military officers in command of forces of
the Unitad States in the country, though
generally indicating the condition of
qniet and order take sometimes an en
tirely different view of the situation.
NEORO CONSERVATIVES INTIMIDATE!).
On the other hand it was in evidence
that the blacks who sought to act with
the Conservative party were on their
part sometimes exposed to emnity and
abuse. In the interior one colored man
was shot for making a Conservative
B]>eech, and in New Orleans it appeared
from the testimony that the
colored men who sought to co
operate with conservatives were subject
to so much abuse from the police and
otherwise that an association of lawyers
volunteered to protect them, bat with
little effect.
The Committee gave an account of the
general condition of affaire in the Stale,
The conviction among the whites that
the Kellogg government wax a usurpa
tion ; the general want of confidence in
the State and local officials; heavy de
cline in State securities, and exorbiant
taxation; the deduction of wages ; non
fulfilment of itereonal and political
pledges; malfeasance of home and local
officials ; disputes among leading colored
persons ; loss 01 embezzlement in some
cases of school funds, and failure of the
Freedman's Bank, all combined to di
vide the views of the colored voters dur
ine the late campaign. Aw effort was
accordingly made by t*he Conservatives
to acquire a part of the negro vote. With
that view, it was sought in many quar

1 the product of modern but of ancient *kill

of a - la# whoee conduct had caused them

which has kept him from seeing thern be
hie, flushed with shame, he "itand#
afar off." not venturing to go to the wall i
>of the inner tempi* where other* prayed. I
Thi* wa* not only unlike the Pharisee with
whom he i# placed in comparison, but un
like multitude* in our day, who rush P.
ilie chief seat* in the sanctuary, and flip
pantly *r their prayers a* a business mat
iter, and would tie unable even to do that
with any t of grace, should they find
jsome other wor*hi|wr in their accutiomed
place ; unlike tho* who are more anxious
jt'i pray eloquently than penitently ; unlike
tli< whose language, intonations, and
' gesticulation* betray a greater desire to be
j praised of men than to praite God. He
'would not lift up so mueh a* bis eye* un
do heaven." It was mercy he sought,
ile made no demand# upon justice, based .
upon the fact that be bad done some de-
,rent thing- A* if he haled his sinfultelf, ]
he "*m>it* upon his breast, saying, God be
; merciful to me a sinner." And Jctus in
the parable make* haste to say, "I tell vou .
this man went down to hi* house justified
rather than the other." We may con
clude primarily fiom thi# thai forgiveness
will couie to tbe vilest sinner if penitent,
and that even he may come to be more
'.dear to God than the religiou*bigot whose
real and strictures are evidences of his
•>c!f-rtghleou*net, and not the result of]
hi# devotion to God.
Humility constitutes the virtue of this!
character we are considering It consist#;
i ill lowliness of inind, • deep sens* of one #i
own unwoftbyoms in the -ight ot God,]
self abasement, penitence lor sin, and sub-!
mission to the divine will—"serving the!
• l-ord with all humility of mind." By tbe !
: sire#* laid on humility in thi* parable it
. is made tbe distinguishing grace of ll.ci
children ofljod, and brand* as hypocrite*
those who make great pretension* and poa-.
, -ess it not.
Kepeitance. faith, and Jove, require a]
. distinct exercise of the sou! Humility is'
it resultant of these, together with the In- 1
fluence of normal view* of r*vealod truth,
it i a ju*l view of our actual selves, art*-
> ing from correct view* and lealing* toward,
tbe Divine government and Go.pel It
, <!•>#• not desire vainglory. Il remember* i
"that r, > flesh should glory iu Hi# pre*-j
'en re, hut that he who glories should'
' "glory In the Lord " Humility is palicnt
, under provos-ation* and trials,* and luoksj
( u|xn all men with the eye# of Christian
charity. It doe* not degtadc its posse*
- sor, but sets a proper estimate u|son the;
i graces and talent-G-sd has loaned us. It
k our religious convictions do not produce,
this grace in us then they are radically de.
feclive. Kvery conviction based upon IH
' v ine truth humbles the soul. Yet anp>ng
. honest people there are yariulie* of I
r giour VIJH ricncc in refv-mnca to humility. I
line will be superficial, showy, and rash, j
1 i..sd* op mostly of animal feeling* and in -,

j When lie speaks be sends chill instead of'

' dirious. cautious, modest, but not silent, .
e t ei-au-e <d his enlarge ] view* of human
} duty and destiny. When he speaks the
proud feel a-tuimeJ. and every soul feels
that religion vk a sacred and a beautiful
reality. Kvidencc* of pride are attractive
s to men ; but evidence* of humility attract
the notice of God
lint there must be puter.l cause* open*-'
J tiiiji wl.et, this central grace of Chrlstiani
*tv it espelled from religion The natural.

The pride of Christian i* alw-ay* due to the;
'j absence of holiness Hut what are sotnej

- the want of humility It not ope reason.
J found in the poverty of scriptural knowl-i
edge* Satisfaction with superficial views
c and experience surrender* the soul to pat
• si ui and pride, and uiakesil tbe easy and
pliant tool of any egotistic heresy. An
other rauss- is, that a religion which in it*
1 externalities appeal* to the pride of the'
* eye, and the natural de*ire of the heart'
- for display, i* more congenial with human
tl nature than the religion of the meak and .
Ilowly Jesus Another cause is flnund in
• the absensc of genuine piety, among a
t large rla** who think it respectable to he
k counted rehgiov*. but whose pride and
*clfitbne have never been crushed by the'
'• powei of God. Their religion it of a kind
that does n<>t disgust their own consciences!
nor worldly mind* with whom they
more.
A(pin, I fiar that a uertain style of pre-,
0 tenting the (Lwpol, rc-orted to by some
r preacher*, banishes humility and culture*
_ pride. That kind of preaching that calls
people to the sanctuary to find a substitute
* for the drama, to hear immaculate rhetor
ic. to a J mire talents rather thnn to be bum
bled before God, and to be led to make
the publican's prayer • "God he merciful
0 to me a tinner." The harmless arrow* fall
at their feet but do not pierce their heart*.
The religious pyrotechnic* glitter and
"'coruscates far above their beads, but no
g live ooal burn* the proud flesh out oflbeir
„ I souls. Thpy go away praising tha prefix
ing hut not praising God. These are a
,f few <>f the many foe# of humility among
•I profe*M>d Christians. But there are more
j reason* why man should le humble than
, there ore causes to koep him from being.
] Humility i* a grace inherently beautiful
'* and lovely in the eyes of God and all pure
i-[ intelligences Splendor is admirable, but
. humility i* lovable. "Thus saith the high
' and lofty Gne that inhahiteth eternity.
'• whoso nsmo is holy, I dwell in the high
i- and holy place; with him alt* that is of s
P contrite and humble spirit, to revive the
r spirit of the humble, and to revive the
hert of the contrite ones."
n Pi-ace follows in the train of humility,
jr God ha* charge of the tw. worlds, and the
humble soul, with a serene and silent
* | transport, moves in harmonv with Hi*
' purposes. The fact that wc have sinned
s against the Holy Gne ought to bring proud
. I man with blushing cheek and scalding
tear* to the Redeemer's feet
Being sinners, humility I# the first con
