The state penitentiary is full to over
flowing. Suppose there be another such
institution erected centrally, say at
Ttellofonte, it would Ire so handy for tit
in this part of the statt.
Tha coal operators and shippers, last
tfeelt, at their meeting in Philadelphia
foiled to effect a combination to monopo

the proposed percentages, and a unani

The Rellefontc Republican appeared
last week with a new head and dressed
in new type, making it look quite hand
some. We suppose it indicates financial
prosperity of the paper, and are pleas
ed to know it gels along well enough to
make the improvement. The sumo
issue fives the name of John 11. Love as
associate editor, who will show him
self competent to flop the "bloody shirt
to which school of republican politicians
he belong*.
The Failures for the Year in New
York city were very heavy—in all eight
hundred and aeventy-fonr, with liabili
ties amounting to nearly fifty-two mil
lion dollar* and assets about twenty-one
millions. Manufacturers, numbering
forty-four, head the list, followed by
thirty-five hankers and brokers, who
went down under the heavy load of
more than six millions.
One of the fruits of Giantism is com

and upwards in the United States, from
which it appears the money stolen dur
ing the past four years—beginning at a
period just prior to the panic of 1*73
by reason of defalcations, embezzle
ments, anvl breaches of trust on the part
of city and county officials, hank officers,
executors of estates, Ac., foots up at over
$30,000,000.
An insurance president has come to
grief. A few days ago in New York, T
ti. I-arnbert, ex-president of the Ameri
can Popular life insurance company,
convicted of swearing to a false annual
report, was arraigned in the conrt of
oyer and terminer, lie spoke for about
two hours and a-half, claiming that he
was hounded down by the press and
that the witnessed against him were in
terested, and he asked the lightest
sentence possible. Brady said the
prisoner deserved to bo punished, and
the court without sympathy or regret
sentenced him to five years iu the state
prison.
There are quite a number of like ras
cals who are still unwhipped, and above
is the kind of example that should be
made of them. It has been too much
the custom to let the big thieves down
easy and make penitentiary colonists of
the minor criminals.
England would like to have a hand in
negotiating peace between Russia and
Turkey, so that she may dictate stipula*
tions, and is willing to be a mediator.
Russia says she will treat with Turkey
direct, and on application of that power.
That is, Russia means that England shall
mind her own business.
England has a peace party and a war
with-Russia party.
Gambetta has spoken with moderation
and wisdom of the submission of Mac-
Mahon. The following are reported as
his utterances:
How should I bo dissatisfied when I
see so grievous a crisis so happily ended.
It is the first victory gained by the legis
lative power over the proceedings of per
sonal power, and that without any revo
lution, riot or disturbance. That is a
new event in our history, and all due to
Democratic institutions. If you are not
satisfied you are very hard to please.
We must be prudent, moderate, con
dilatory. The Republican partv must
be in power when the universal Exhi
bition is opened; it must govern when j
we have to proceed to the elections of
the Municipal Councils and to the re
newal of the Senate in 1879. After these
two great acts are over, the; Republic will
no longer have anvtbing to fear from its
adversaries; it will be definitely found
ed.
The Protestant clergymen of Philadel
phia who are organized into a Ministe
rial Union, have unanimously resolved
that the orthodox hell does exist. Now
let Beecher and some of the other New
York preachers subside until they get
there when they will know all about
it.
The women suffrage gals have been
refused the U. S. Senate chamber for
speeches of the representatives of the
women suffragists. There's another big
Wrong—bow the sisters will rave and
scold at the cruel men in some other
hall about it. Petticoats ain't trump af
ter all yet. Get away, sis.
Hayes has been interviewed during
the holidays and declarea he will ad
here to his policy and not yield toConk
ling and hia tribe. The republicans are
now hatching a move to investigate bis
title. They won't have much trouble to
find that a fraud, and will not need go
far from home to do it. What a judge
ment the republican party has brought
upon itself by the presidential steal!
There is a statement said to be well
founded that Patterson intends to re
sign the senatorsbip and that Cameron
has advised bim not to return to South
Carolina, but resume citizenship in
Pennsylvania, and he would use his in
fluencc to have Patterson elected to con
gress in 1880. Simon and John J. al

The Aldermanic Committee, of New-
York which was appointed in July to in
vestigate the ring frauds, bavingconclud
ed its labors, have made a long report to
the Board of Aldermen, summing up the
result The committee make it appear
that between January 1,1868, and July
1 1871 the enormous sum of
was fraudulently diverted from the City
treasury by the corrupt practices of he
ring and that this does not include the
amount stolen by the ringimlthe Board
of Supervisors between 1860 and 1866
It is safe to assume, says the report that
from 1860 until July 1871, the people of
this city havebecn robbed to the exten
of $50,000,000 at least. The amount re
covered by all suits amounts to only 1,-
119,525, and when legal expenses are e
ducted there is left as a total net amoun
recovered only $876,241, or lesst lan one
fiftieth of the amount stolen.

The Philadelphia Times lias had
seventeen libel eases in the three years
of its existence, and has come out of all
of them with a verdict in its favor. The
prosecutor* of the Times wore men who
had betrayed important trusts a* public
servants, and as an independent journal
—and all journals should be independ
ent— it atoodupon the watclitower, do
tnanding, "Who rocs there," without
fear, favor or affection. When it found
the password came short of "honesty
in the approaching form, it charged
upon him, exposed his attempts to prey
upon the public as well as held up to the
public ga.o the wrongs already commit*
ted by the pilgrim politician.
The parties who sued the Times for
libel were men at the public crib who
were stealing fodder from al! the other
racks, and they took it as the height of
impudence as well as a personal wrong
that the Times should exjoso them as
defaulter*, thieves, and plunderers.
The Time* has taken high ground in
this iSatter, and descries the thanks of
the people of Philadelphia and outside
for lauciog the ulcere upon the body
politic, a duty which the press of
Philadelphia has alwnvs shirked be
cause it lacked that independence which
every journal should possess.

The state legislature convened at liar
risburg, on Ist. The old either* were
pretty much all re-elected.
Mr. Newmver, in the senate, wtlcren a
resolution amending the t'onstitution,
reducing the number of senators to Jo

pass-since the number has been doub

one-fourth what it used to be, and then
it was light enough.

July riots upon the state. I.uckoy will

The senate and house are in a dead

GERM.I .V }"> EASIERS FOLIC 1
Herald Berlin correspondent: Ever
since the l>eginning of the Eastern com
plications I have maintained that Bis
marck, not caring a fig for them, is only
ruled by the one thought of preventing
Vrance from forming any alliance in her
war of revenge against Germane. By
founding the "Frvi Lair*-/ Bund.' the
chief object of which aims at settling all
important international question! in ac
cordance with previous agreements be
tween the contracting parties, Bi.-marek
succeeded in isolating France and bind
ing Russia and Austro-Hungary by
strong ties of friendship to his country.
I do not go so far as to aver that Bis
marck intentionally thrust Russia into
the war. but I cannot help admitting
that he must inwardly chuckle at seeing
the Czar, who liked to pose himself as
the arbiter of Europe, entangled in a con
flict so ruinous to Russia's power and
credit. Nothing could have happened
more advantageous to Germany than
the difficulty experienced by the Czar
in overcoming his adversary, rightlv or
wrongly considered the weakest among
the great European Rowers. No victory
ever so glorious can remove from Russia's
fame the tarnish of having been for
months held at bav by the Ottoman's,
at first so despised by them.
THE TIIKEX EMPERORS' ALLIANCE.
However the war may end, we may be
sure Russia will bo so crippled that she
will long hesitate before again unsheath
ing her sword. As all the hopes of
France for crushing her German foe
were centred on an alliance with Russia
one easily perceives what a great profit
this country has gained by the Turco-
Ruseian campaign, not only humbling
the Porte but weakening Russia and
rendering her unfit for new warlike en
terprises during the next decade at least.
On a conclusion of peace, for which
preparations are undoubtedly already
making, Bismarck and Andrassy will
qnietly step in between the contestants
and name the terms on which they will
admit a reconstruction of the political
state of affairs on the Balkan Peninsula.
Without being averse to Russia com
pensating herself to some degree for
enormous losses sustained, there two
statesmen will, nevertheless, not sanc
tion any territorial aggrandizement of
their good and faithful ally in European
Turkey. If the Czar sWould therefore
insist on acquiring new territories he
will have to turn to Asia, where any ex
tension ofhis empire, far from strength
ening its power, involves great expendi
tures and pecuniary sacrifices, owing to
these countries not being in a position
to raise the means necessary for their
self-administration. The late Czar Nich
olas, the father of the pre-ent Russian
Emperor, who in 1849, was chiefly in
strumental in crushing the Hungarian
revolt, only a few years later had thes.nl
opportunity of complaining of Austria's
ingratitude in making common cause
with his enemies during the Crimean
war. It appears as if a like feeling will
not be spared his son.

Some one looking over some old
Virginia papers in one of the Culpepper
families found the following document
which the fair readers of the Reporter
can read at the sewing circle:
"A shipment of English fair ones is
being made in due order and well con
ditioned by an English merchant, and
he thus advises his consignees:
"August 12th, 1821, LONDON.
"We send you in the 6bip one widow
and eleven maids for wives for the peo
ple of Virginia. There has been espe
cial care had in the choice of them, for
there hath not any of them been re
ceived but upon good commendation.
In case they cannot be presently mar
ried, we desire that they be put with
several householders that have wives
till they can be provided with husbands.
There are nearly fifty more of the sanio
class that are shortly to come, and are
sent by our Most Honorable Lord and
Treasurer, the Earl of Southampton, and
certain worthy gentlemen who, taking
into consideration that the plantation
can never flourish till females and fami
lies be planted, and the respect of wives
and children for their people on the soil
therefore have given this fair beginning
for the reimbursement of whose charges
it is ordered that every man that mar
ries therein gives 120 pounds of the best
leaf tobacco for each of them. Though
we are desirous that the marriages be
free, according to the law of nature, yet
we would not have these maids deceiv
ed and married to servants, but only to
auch freemen or tenants aa have means
to maintain them. We pray you, there-1
fore, to be fathers to them in this busi
ness, not enforcing them to marry
against their wills." Here follows the
names whose bearers both in England
and Virginia at the present day would
be rather amazed to know that their an
cestors were shippers of this class of
live Btook. I may, on some future occa
sion, give an airing to a few other docu
ments of this old Virginia style, and be
fore long I may be enabled to draw some
pictures of the "first families" of Ohio as
painted by the early residents, for their
interested relatives rn England. It is
pleasant to know that some people have
had fathers and mothers as well as
grandfathers and grandmothers, though
, they have no dollars."
THE SOUTH CA ROUS A SENA

The scheme to unseat Senator Butler
was decided upon Friday before the
holiday adjournment, at a meeting held
at the residence of a Southern Republi
can Senator. The speakers at the meet
ing were Senators Edmunds, Cameron of
Wisconsin, Hoar and Dawes; it was de
cided that the contest would be made on
the ground that the Legislature which
i elected Butler was not legal and the
next thing in order was to devise away

Perhaps nothing in science is uu>re
mysterious than the cause of that sim
ple phenomenon that when a bar of
steel i* magnetized it bss acquired a
tendency to assume a definite relation
to our earth. 1 ike a great magnet, the
earth acts upon a magnetized needle
with nearly a directive torce. At the
present moment a mariner's compass
needle points 111 a direction of about
twenty-one and a half degrees west .•(
true north, termed a declination to that
extent, and at the same ttaie dips .!<>* n
wards, making an angle of about sixty
eight degrees with the horizon. It is
declination and dtp vary with time and
place. But theio uic other changes
which the magnet experiences w hen
kept suspended in the same place, viz.
the secular change, during a great many
vears, the annual variation, the daily
variation, and a changedue to the moon.
In addition to these are those curious
ami unaccountable changes, termed
magnetic disturbances, or storms. At
mospheric storms,even the greatest, are
only local phenomena; but magnetic
storms arc ccsiuical, and occur almost at
the same moment all over the world.
Philosophic investigation shows that
these magnetic disturbances are connect
ed with the sun, inasmuch as they obey a
daily law, and are moreover independ
ent of the light of the sun. they have
a vet stilf more mysterious relation with
our own luminary. M. Schwube, hav
ing for nearly forty years watched and
recorded the spots on its disc, saw that
these spots exhibit a maximum ami
minimum nearlv every ten years, and
General Sabine having discovered that
magnetic disturbances have also a ten
years' twriod, fortunately though of com
paring the two periods, and found that
ii-ev were precisely the same, having
the same years of maxftnum and mini
mum. It has also been proved that the
magnetic disturbances are accompanied
by auroras and ul-o by electric earth
currents, in soune cases interfering with
the telegraph wires, both having a ten
vearly period. The nature of the bond
by which these phenomena are allied is
still a profound m\ sterv.

ON' I" NIGHT OF SAT EARING.

V Sleeping Car Awake nil Night.
From the Burlington Hawkey®.
< It iv i* in 3I IP (Vdnr Rapid* xlecpvr
S Outside it wn* dark ns the insula ot an ink
bottle In the sleeping car people slept.
I >r tried it.
Some of thi ni s'opt, like Christian men
M and women, pom dully and sweetly and
quietly.
Others slept like demon*, malignantly,
.hideously, fiendishly, as though it was
I their mission to keep everybody else
awake
„ ilf these, the man m low er number three!
wa Ut ' ' t>• >- * When it came to a|
square snore with variations, you wanted
to count "lower three" in. with a full'
han 1 an if ii pocketful of rocks
We never beard anything snore likci
bint. It wm the most systematic snoring
that was ever done, even on one of those
touti anient* of snoring, a sleeping car.
Mo didn't begin as toon as the lamps wre
turned down ami everybody was in bed.
Oh. no. There was more Cold-blooded
diabolism in hw system Mian that. He
waited until everybody Lad bad a little,
taste of sleep, just t ste how good and!
plewaant it via-, and then be broke In on
their slumber* like a winged, breathing,
lemon, and thev never knew what peace
•j was again that night.
He started out w ilh a terrific
- "Gn-rrr t I"
That opened every eye in the cur. We
all hoped a w as an accident, however,and
trusting that lie wouldn't do it agniti, we
all forgave him. Then he Mailed our
hopes and curdled lite sweet serenity ol
h our fogivrncts by a long drawn
"Gw-a-tch h hah 1"
Thai sounded toe much like business t.
be accidental Then every head in thai
sleepless sleeper was held of the pillow
, for a minute, waiting, in breathless tus
i peine, lo hear the worst, and the sleepei
, iu "lower three" went on, iu long-drawn,
regular cadences that indicated good stay
. ing qualities.
"Gwa-a-ah ! Gwa-a-h ! Gnhwahwab !
, tinhwahwah 1 Gahwa-a-a-sh !"
Evidently it was going to last all i.ighi
, and the weary heads dropped back on the
sleepiest pillows, and the swearing began
It mumbled along in low, muttering
, tope-, like the distant echoes of a profane
thunderstorm. I'retty soon"'lower three" j
, gave us a little variation. He slot off a
Ipitulul
"Gwook 1"
AVhich sounded as though hi* note had
got ungry at fattit and was going to tlr.ke.
Then there wa- a pause, and wo began to
hope he had either awakened from sluep
or strangled to death, nobody cared very
particularly which. Hut he disappointed
every- body with a guttera!
"Uurooch 1"
Then lie paused again for breath, and
when lie I.ad accumulated enough for hi*
purpo-u he resumed bu-inrtt with a
•tcniorn u*
"Kow| f!"
: He ran through all the ranges of tho na
>al gamut, he went up and down a verv
iichromatio scale of snores, he ran thipugu
intricate and fearful variations until it
• earned bit nose must be out of joint in a
thousand plaies All the night and all;
j night through he told his story.
''Gasroh ! gurrab I gu-r-r r! Kowpff'

, Just as the other passengers had con
