The nellefonte liepublican, or hist
week, announces that a republican who j
won f 100 on Hayea' "election w ishes to
dispose of the stutl" to charities, and in
vites applications for that purpose N.
decent charity will be the neeixer
stolen funds. Money bet on Hayes
"election" was lost—for llsyos nevct w..
elected, he holds the office hx theft,
and money taken on a bet on that a.-
count is on the same tooting, the
republican who has taken the ah rcs.u.l
sltX\ha*a troubled conscience aUntt
and wishes to wipe out the sin by offer
ing to make charity of it. iam'i totiM
it—let it remain as a burning coal in t! e
hands of the wrong possessor.

conclusively that Well* did n. ;. wn t ie

that in f.-vt it belonged to other jitrtii -
who emplovetl Wells to as-".me the
ownership and collect the money, l'he
claim has been rejected by .xuigri s-s, aud

Kx-Mavor Hall, of New York, las
been missing for about aw eek, and de
tectives have failed to obtain :,y clue as
to his whereabouts. Foul ploy is
suspected and some think he was mur
dered in a dangerous portion of Bro *■
lyn whither he intended going for evi
dence in a divorce case, in which lie was
engaged as attorney. Others think he
tied to Europe, to escape Wing involved
in the well-known ring suits, np<on wh: 1
he had stood a trial onte before, and
came out acquited, r.o evidence having
Wen found against him.
Hayes w.tiks to church ot. Sundays
and shakes hands w ith his "mittens" off.
This is evidence conclude® that he is
not a fraudulent {resident and that
Madison Wells is a saint and Fiiza
Pinkston a virgin, and that John Sher
man knew all abont her.
SO MORE COJtUIsSIOX.
The not-elected -president, Hayes, is
nbout to appoint a commission to go to
Louisiana and see who is entitled to the
governorship, Nicolls the democrat, or
Packard the returning boarder. The
House and Senate committees have done
all the investigating needed, and mote
than Hayes' new SxTers can do. He
knows well enough who has the best
title bot has not the moral courage to
act. The country has enough of the
commission business—the late Bradly-
Morton 8 have disgusted the world for
the next century. The face of the re
tumsshow that Nicolls has Sfts) majori
ty, and if Hayes sustain.- Pat hard, he is
simply a perjurer and usurper. That's
the whole of it.
a EX. irCLELLAX > TJLI. IIATEEUL
TO REP LRU C: I.V PUI.I TI( 7 A Xs.
Albany. N. Y March "!.—The nomi
nation of General Otons It. M'Clellan
for superintendent of public works was
rejected by tho dbnate to-day.
These republicans are a terribly spite
ful set indeed. The latest evidence of it
was given a few days ago, when the v
vented their spite against that great
American military chitf'ain, tieo. P.
M'Clellan, who was nominated by the
Governor of New York as superinten
dent of public works, and the nomina
tion rejected by the republican senate
of that state I If M'Clellan had Wen a
rebel guerilla chief like Mosebv or a
reWl General like Loncstrcct and gone
over to the republican pafcy afterwards
like these, his appointment would have
been confirmed, but because he was a
democrat, his unblemished character,
and great services in the army of the
I nion which idolized him, were nothing
to these cowardly and hypocritical jaco
bins, and they showed their petty spite
by refusing to confirm his nomination to
a place for which he was so eminently
fit. Such littleness belongs to radical
politicians alone—the democrats of the
U. S. Senate pursued an opposite course
when Fraudulent Hayes sent in his
cabinet appointments.
As has already been noted the pro
position is seriously made to form a sea
of the desert of Sahara by cutting a
channel to let in the waters of the
Mediterianean—an enterprise regarded
as entirely feasible, more so, in fact,
than the cutting of the isthmus of I'arien
which may be said to be an assured pro
ject. A German scientific writer, how
ever, goes so far as to assert that the
Sahara project, if carried out, would
eventually turn Europe into another
Greenland. He alleges that the diver
sion of the Gulf htream, by the cutting
. of the Suez canal, has already begun to
have an influence on the climate of Eu
rope, and that the covering of the burn
ingsands ofthe great African desert with
water would destroy the hot winds,
which are necessary lor the melting of
the Alpine snow and ice, and would
finally result in a glacial formation that
would ov rwhelin Italy. He instances
the changes in climate in Australia and i
New Guinea by the deviation of a warm ■
current of water which formerly ran
through Torres Straits as a practical illus- t
tration of his theory. i
John D. Lee the Mormon leader in the I
terrible Mountain meadow massacre, I
some 20 years ago, was shot for ids crime '
a few days ago, having been tried and i
found guilty. He chose death by shoot- '
ing. lie confessed his crime, and im
plicates many other Morm ns in the
murder in which 127 Arkansas men, wo
men and children were brutally butch

.J.-hoWaii profligate waste cf money in
high siilaries thai fully accounts for the
embarrassed condition ..f some "f the
companies. It appears that the plan of
the directors is to make way with the
- lrpltis by voting theni-. Ives cfli..-
with enormous salaries. It costs nltou-i
a* much to run one of tlie-e insurance
companies as it does tojwy the salary of
the President of the United States and
the heads of departments. The Mutual
l.ifuofNew Y'ork, for instance, pay* its
Pro.dent Hi>.i*X> per annum, first Vice
President $1 A.iXXI, second Jlk'.oOO then
comes a small army of secri taries actua

salaries ranging from so,l* o to * 1 -Ti.i * -
No one appeared to hare a salary It
than SB,OOO. The President of the Ikiui'a
bleLife commenced in 1859 with a sala
ry of $1,500, but last year it had reached
$37,-V**, with {22.0(0 to the Y'ice Pre.-i
--deut, $2t),000 to the Actuary, and $1
""O to the Secretary. This last official
ha* received from tho company in the
last eighteen years, in salary and fee-,
the snug sum of $P*V"'5. Of course this
is where thesurplusgoesofthe Lifecom
panies, and probably ac. ounts for their
frequent smash-tips and systematic op
p>-itionto the payment of insurance,
until conqieHed to do so by legal pro
ceeding-J after every inch has been con -
tested to force a compromise.
The hopes of Hayes are that he w ill
be able to get an Administration ma
jority in the House, through a discreet
use of his Southern patronage, and by
promises of large expenditures of public
money in Southern internal improve
ments. The lurgain lie is trving to make
is utterly discreditable, and it 1- gratify
ing to see that so far the Fraudulent
President has not succeeded in purchas
ing his men. It is ofthe highest impor
tance to the welfare of the South, to the
cause of Government economy, ami to
the interests of the whole country, that
the Democratic majority in the House
shall work together, and l>ear unceas
ing testimony to its hatred of the frauds
by which the people w ere cheated out of
an election.
After being inaugurated as Fraudulent
President, Hayes told Grunt that if there
were any special friends of his in office
whom he might desire to have retained,
and of w hose 'names he would make a
memorandum, they should not be di--
turbed. The list furnished is said to he
long and embarrassing, hut Grant hold*
his successor to the offer and expects a
fulfilment of the bond. Hence the
Cramers and that crew of loafers and
adventurers, w ho were pensioned on the
Treasury by Grant, are likely to con
tinue on the rolls during your years of
usurpation, and all for the sake of civil
service reform as preached by Hayes,
Evarts, and Schurz.
THE COMMISSION HIES IX THE
BORXIXG.
Washington, March 2fi, 1877.—The in
dications are that Hayes' High Joint
Commission to Louisiana will fall still
born. The trouble is to get men of char
acter to join in such a wild-goose chase,
when they have no certainty Hayes will'
not reject their recommendations and
humiliate them before the whole coun
try. There was a great diminution in
the small stock of confidence hitherto
entertained in Hayes' promises and
capacity. He has managed to offend all
parties without making friends with
any. The general feeling is that he can
not be trusted. The assertion is made
that the Southern members, before thev
treated with Stanley Matthews anil
Charley Fos'er, were shown their auth
ority from Hayes in a letter of credence.
They were given to understand if the
count was allowed to go on, Nicholls and
Hampton would be acknowledged ami
the troops withdrawn. This was the
substantial agreement. It is not suppos
ed Matthews or Foster lied in the mat
ter, so Hayes apjiears in a bad light. He
repudiates the agreement which made
him President. He telegraphed Pack
ard at New Orleans to-day, that orders
had been sent General Auger to main
tain the situation unchanged. This
means the protection of the Packard
usurpation by Federal bayonets. Kellogg
says that Hayes on Saturday denounc
ed the Nicholls Government as having
no legal courts, and having declared that
the judgments of Nicholls' Supreme
Court were entirely worthless.
Ex-Governor Brown, of Tent issee,
the only person whose acceptance of a
place on the Louisiana Commission has
i>een announced, withdraws from the
position. Ifa commission is made up it
will be second-rate, and carry 110
weight.
Hayes is getting into bad odor for
violating his pledges u.- to the South
Carolina and Louisiana governorships,
We would hesitate about tuking Hayes
word cn oath.

God's laborer- may he divided intotbree

reward- of tho laborers in time and eterni

islornn. Those who are diligent an i
faithful spiritually and attend to the work
of their salvation well, repent of'.heir sins,

this present world, shall he abundantly

proper to do so ; for as long ns wo are in
the world we cannot do without the neces
