so commuted the sentence of Blasius

At the state Millers' Convention held
at 1 Jin caster, lately the lultx w.iea,
was condemned. There was considera
ble of this grain raised iu Centre county
of late vears. hut the millers, who should
know, do not seem to think much of it,
they passed the following resolution
with but one vote in opposition :
K .1 That'this society] will dis
coutage the growiig of Fultx and Claw
son wheats. For milling purposes they
are not desirable, and have been the
cause of mnch of the complaint about
our flour. We .suggest {Lancaster, Old;

in preference.
President Hayes is putxled concern
ing the disposition to be made of the bill
to pay arrears of pensions. In the Cab
inet Secretary Schurxjpreeented a letter
from Mr. Bentley, Commissioner of
Pensions, saying that the bill, if approv
ed by the President, will take!-' '• OOKOeO
from tbe Treasury immediately, and in
years to come, as the result of new ap
plications, Ac., about 120,000,000 more.
Secretary Sherman, who is greatly op
posed to the bill becoming a law. in
formed the President that according to
the estimates of the Treasury I>epart
ment through which pensioners are
paid, about; $ 100,000.000 would be re
quired to meet the demands for the pay.
xnent of arrearages. Mr. Sherman said
that it would be impossible to pay this
sum without encroaching upon the fund
for resumption purposes, unless Con
gress authorized him to sell bonds or
passed an act providing lor levying ad
ditional taxes. It was the unanimous
sentiment of the Cabinet that something
must be done to avoid the extraordina
ry draft upon the Treasury which the
approval of the act by the President
would entail. The President was of the
opinion that it would be useless to veto
the bill, as Congress would probably
pass it over his veto. It originally pass
ed the House by a suspension of its rules
which requires a two-tbirJs vote, and
there were only four votes against the
measure in the senate. It is probable
that the President will permit the bill
to become a law, either by approving it
directly or withholding his signature
from it for ten days, and send a message
to Congress calling attention to the ef
fi tof the operation of the act, and re
commending that the deficiency in the
Treasury be supplied either by the sale
of bonds or a tax-levy.
Women will have their own quser
wav, although they get hurt by it some
times. It is well enongh for a woman
to know when to stop talking, and stop;
but she most know that she will stop
walking when she should not stop.
Dr. Hale of Chicago, taking as his text
the case of a woman who was run over
in the street and killed, because she
drew back after starting to croae ahead
of a pair of horses, says that fie is sur
prised that more women are not hurt in
the same way."A woman starts to
cross the streets," he says, "and when
she gets one-thirdjor half way over she
sees a team approaching; the driver in
nearly every instance watches her
movements, and seeks to drive in be
hind her. If she keeps on her way, all
is wsll. still she is
perfectly safe. Bit here comes in the
fatal idiosyncrasy of her sex.
Just as the driver tkinks he can safely
drive behind;her,*she>tops, starts back
a few steps, and, unless the2driver is
prompt, and draws his horse back on his
haunches "the women|i.*|under] his feet
or knocked down."
Since Blaine's Teller committee on
southern intimidation does not promise
to pan outjwell and way for
him to the white house, he will hare to
fall back uponjsomething else to raize a
commotion. Suppose the Maine states
man would raise tbe old cry of 'Two
dollars a day and good roast beef," which
answered so well for "Tippecanoe and
Tyler" too. We thiDk this would take—
the J2 and roast beef we know would in
these times, if set before the thousands
who are out of bread and employ, in
Bpiteofallthe promiseaJof7good times
made by the BlaiDe party within th
last dozen years.
It may Bound strange to hear of a man
freezing to death down in Florida, but
it's so. An old man had himself and his
trunk left on a piece of land that he
imagined he owned in Ocala, Fla., and
declared that he would fi tay there until
his rights were established. It was a
cold night, and in the morning |he was
found frozen to death.
This establishes his right to a lot 3x
feet.
Evening Telegram"Probably the
White House has not seen inch poorly
attended receptions for a quarter of a
century. Of course the general dulness
of politics has something to do with this
dulness of the Booial side of official life ;
but this administration never could be
a brilliant one if it were prolonged to
the end of the next quarter of a century.
The only really interesting thing that
has happened at any of the White House
receptions thus far was the presence of
Chief Joseph last week. This savage,
having slaughtered a large number of
United Slates soldiers and battled their
commanders and shown himself a man
of genuine abilities, was the object of no
little attention. The presence of the
President was quite forgotten, and Chief
Joseph was the lion of the occasion—'a
biger man than Old Ilayes,' to speak af
ter the manner of Fitzhugh."
'TIS POSiK). <
Pennsylvania is to have Don Cameron
for one of her senatois. If any ropubli-,
can organ can fell nswliy this young mi an
was chosen to so high ami h movable
I position, no should like to hear it.
Pennsylvania ccrtainly|haa nothing a',
all to feel proud of in IKm Cameron, for
he is not able to de lend our state in a
two min. speech if attacked upon the
floor of the senate, lie can not express
his sentiments, upon any measure that
may come before the body to which he
has just been chosen. I poll finance,
commerce, education, agriculture, 01 un>
of the other great interests of this gieat
state and nation IKm t atuerou wHi he as
silent as an oyster. Farther, we asser!
that he has no thoughts or ideas upon
any important public measure that he
can put upon paper which would le
worth listening to if read by him.
This is Don Cameron ;in<l t enn\
rania is the second state of the t nion
However, Pennsylvania still has a
man theie alio ha the anility lo ivpre
sent and defend toe state, that is Win.
A. Wallace, who makes up for a in
which IX)n Cameron is lacking. It wa*
tirains that took a Buchanan. a
lew, a Cowan and a Wallace to the t
S. Senate, but it is nothing vise but
money that ever made a Senator out of
a Cameron.
The republican party has men of dis
tinguished ability upon whom it should
have bestowed the senatorial mant.e. It
has tiros , and MT'lierson. and Agnew
and Scott. and a dozen others, but all of
them w ere v ct aside for young t ami r n
whose voice sill never have an echo iu
the chamber that rings with the elo
quence of the distinguished and able
men who represent sister common
wealths.
The republicans could have throw not!
the Cameron yoke on 21, but they Puk
ed tho nerve and mora! courage, and
could not resist the sweet jingle that
sounded from Cameron's chests. M e
can pick out a score of republicans in
our county of Centre, who are better tit
ted for I". S. Senator than Don Cameron,
naruly, 1 wrst. Beaver, Lain. Keller.
Hastings, and others. So in any othsr
county in the state and if Don t atueron
is the standard of the article wanted,
we have just 10,000 in the state as well,
and better, fitted than he is.
Shakespeare would say, Tis Don, ! ut
it were better if'twere well done, when

On Tuesday 21, inauguration day,
there was an interval leaving Pennsyl

the state was without a governor.
From the city of Brotherly I-ove
comes a sad case of starvation. That a
child should actually starve to death
in the beautiful ar.d Christian city of
of Philadelphia, in a time of plenty and
when the necessaries of life are so
cheap, is almost beyond belief, never
theles it is so. and we give the story re
lateJ by tbe I'hi'aJ. liecord of 22 inst,
as follows:
In a little second story room of the
house in the rear of 1,311 Ogden strest
tbe shrivelled rsmaias of an infant live
months old lie on a rough board, Irigid
in death, and covered with a repulsive
looking calico rag. The emaciated body
and pinched features confirm the deci
sion of the Coroner that the little suffer
er died from debility caused by war.t of
sufficient nourishment. The father of
the released sufl'erer iies in a cell in
Moyamensing Prison, where he has been
aince last Christmas, and whither lie
was sent for attempting to steal a turkey
being driven to the act by the cries of
his famishing wife and children for
something to eat. His wife says it was
his first offence and that she little
dreamed of bis purpose when he left hi*
home on Christmas* morning to procure
food to keep them fnsrn starving. In the
room where the family live the bervav
ed mother sat last evening moaning for
the loss ef her starved baby, while her
children, five in number, plainly show
ed in their wasted forms that they, too.
had felt the pangs of hnDger. These
were thinly clad, one of them having
simply a scant piece of calico pinned
around him to cover kis naked shoul
ders and to protect him from chilling
winds.
The furniture in the room is all com
prised in the constable's levy, which lay
on the mantlepiece —a clock, stove and
pipe, looking glasa, table, four chairs
and carpeting, the Sattar a mere rag.
These articles, all that the distressed
family possess, were seized yesterday in
payment.of |lt due to Jacob Sebandein
for two months' rent. The constable
came to the house to make the seizure
on Monday, but while he was there the
child died, and the officer, though used
to scenes of suffering, turned away from
the house without performing his duty;
but the cruel task was performed yester
day. In the evening, their sufferings
having been made public, several kind
hearted people called to tender them aid
and among the number Mr. J. J. De
Kinder, a shipcbandler and grocer, at
Girard Point, who at once offered em
ployment to tbe husband. The broken
hearted wife explained that her hus
band had "been sent below" and could
not work for tbera. Mr. De Kinder,
however, has promised to give the hus
band work as soon as he is discharged
from prison. Provision has been ma le
for the interment of the child to-day in
Cathedral Cemetery. A more complete
picture of destitution and suffering
couid not l>e imagined, nor one that ap
peals more directly to the charity oft be
benevolent. The cause of all this was
rum, both father and mother indulg
ing.
From an account in another paper we
see that when little one was in its
coffin the real situation of the family
only become known. There were then
an abundance of kindly offers of assis
tance and scores who said they would
have been willing to render the family
aid if only they had been informed of
their destitution. Perhaps so—but why
notlook around like a Samaritan and
see whether there w ere houses w here the
wolf had entered before death by starva
tion made it known? An abundenceof
all kinds of provisions lias] since been
sent to this family as also considerable
sums of money, enough to make them
all comfortable during the rest of the
winter—but it ia a sad commentary that
in such a city a human being should
starve to death.
Mr. Hayes has signed the Arrears ot

drain on the treasury, taking out from

Score one for New Jersey justice.
Nine public functionaries of Warren
county, N. J., have been convicted of
malfeasance in office and sentenced to
hard labor in the State Prison for peri
ods of from one to sixteen years each.
Conspiracy to cheat and defraud the
town, and forgery to help out the pur
poses of the conspiracy, are the crimes
of which all these men have been found
guilty.

i The Chicago Tribune gives the f"ll iw
i ing pen portrait of Pennsylvania's fav
orite SOU :
Senator Hon Cameron's personal ap
. pearauce is more remarkable than Lis
i mental characteristics. lie is five feet
• eleven inches in (tight, but looks to be
an inch or two taller, lie is aa straight
i as one of Cooper's Indians and poetical
ly slim. 1 iis step is firm and quick.
■ His features are Scotch, florid and wsll
developed. His hair and moustache are
the color of a fox-squirrel. He is in lore
with bis moustac he, which he tries hard
, to domesticate or civilize, but the obdu
rate appendage will not respond to his
affectionate caresses, and grows up and
down and crosswise, verv like the hair
on a cat's back when It is absorbing
wrath, for a battle on the roof. But, aa
it is a veiy good moustache of the kind,
no one has a right to rriticiso it; besides
it has nothing to do with iiis brains.
He is a silent man. He never made a
speech in his life —we were going to say
he never will, hut look at General
i Grant since he went to Europe' That
. I)tib!in speech astonishes two continents.
But it is safe to say that Bon Cameron
will never surpass the ex-I'resideut iu
the graces and profundities of oratory.
, He seldom .■ miles. In this he resent

Cleveland a few months ago, he was
provoked to a mild sort of laughter,

since.

A True Story.
You ask iue now. brethren, is tbis story,
' which is recorded in the Hook of Geneste,
i literally true' Let me answer that que*-
t in f.r-i, be tute it it of great importance
Most assuredly it is exactly true We
have no doubt of that whatever. Those
event* occurred just as they are related.
The iMd Tostaini iit it full of such start
ling pictures as that. It is very natural
' a tueu to iir*w a contrast ef their expert
cm a in this age with that of earlier ages,
il it very natural for them to say we da
not have luch exnentnee now, and there
i fore there muit t># some mistake II is
scarcely f*ir to contrast our age with oth
er ages We aught to recognize the fact
that the ages are different in their com
• plicati'ins, tn their susceptibility of light,
, at,d that, if there it a (sod at all. there
must bo a difference in tho manifeslatioa
of God.
Hv.w Got] Sftcak* to Men.'
G"J speaks to men according to their
1 j condition, and tha voice has varied from
t the infancy of the race to its majority to
, day We teach the child with pictures,
but the growif nun with philosophy. Gad
' spoke to Mosii and to Jacob through the
- rye and through the imagination. One of
, tiose pictures we have bt-et reading.

in Lis heart for years and years, and even
sn Lis l id age it was a eemfoftiag strain.
T" Jy tfcst song goes to our ear* and out

•now lam not so sura of that. There are j
j isi a* many miracle* in our century a* in

Those who hat e bctn close to the bounds!
f f Jordan have teen visions hard to de-|
scribe, and heard things sitßcull to tell.
' Li t nto find th# lesson that the story
• teaches, and let us look at the ladder The
ladder had two resting placet First, it,'
rested firmly on the earth, and 1 am glad
j of that. Faople who believe in Übristi
aaity -*tih all their heart hae an abiding
iaitb in the lasss thai govern this world.
We must not forget the commend to holy
b'living. Worldly piant are, I believe,;
righteous in the tight of God. It is our
d i|w :e be "f service U> our fellow men,
and we ran do this by meant of commer
cial enterprise Without the instinct of
trade man would lapse into Barbarism A
farmer does not work selfishly though he
(works fur his own interest, for all reap the
■ benefit of bis toil and h.s labor. The huge
a manufactory spinning the river is not
, * de'y th- representative of a mean use of
gra;#. It represent* something higher
'• aud has a mis*.en that is unparalleled in
({human history. It repraaenu the genius
) of the country, the intelligence and moral
Ji vlepm#nt of society.

re*vement, poverty—you cannot under
' stand thein unless you up la the be
" yend and see something there There is
, many a life in which trouble, sorrow and
' b-ri Nvement are hieroglyphics because!
the philosophy of life does not gel beyond j
• the circumference of time. Tbera is a
'f biassed significance in them, but we e#n-;
. not understand a single letter. Therefor#
f 1 say that we must rail the other end ol
the ladder in tbe heaven*, end that re*t-
it g plai a is just a* firm and ju*t a* real as
I this. Every ladder has two ends, but it is
• only "ne ladder. Every complete life has
two ends, but ;it is one life— one end on
