his country as by sustaining the Flag the

A. Potral.As
TuE next Republioan State conven
tion will be held at Williamsport, on
the 20th of ,Tune next. A candidate
for Supreme Judge will Lie nominated.
The number of aspirants for the
next Presidency are increasing. Theo
dore Tilton found a dozen or twenty
on his late visit to Washington ; they
were so plenty, indeed, he did not
think it worth while to count them
very accurately.
James L. Graham of Allegheny
county was elected Speaker of the Sen
ate previous to adjournment. Should
Gov. Geary die, Mr. Graham will take
his place until the office could be filled
by election. Office holders don't often
die.
NOMINATIONS AND REJECTIONS.--ti on.
John Ross of Mifflin county, was, a few
days since, nominated by the President
for Revenue Collector of this District.,
and rejected by the Senate. The office
is still being filled by Rev. James C.
Clarke, a most excellent officer. Why
not nominate and confirm him? Who
objects ?
. There has been no nomination to fill
our post office since the rejection of
Col. Sohn S. Miller.
The Senate is afraid to adjourn for
fear the President will fill vacancies
with his friends.
OUR LEGISLATURE ADJOURNED.-Our
State Legislature has adjourned. The
appropriation bill, after being cut down
by the Senate:some three or four hun
dred thousand dollars was finally pre
sented to the Governor for his signa
ture. The Republican press have but
little to say of the honesty of the body,
a few honorable exceptions of course.
Many of the distinguished legislators
have gone home, it is hoped never to
return again. They will disoover that
the people are not blind to corrup
tions, no matter what the efforts may
have been to pull the wool over their
eyes.
The Ilaunood. Suffrage Bill in Ohio.
The following is the Manhood Suf
frage Bill, as passed by both bran,3hes
of the Ohio Legislature :
That it be and is hereby proposed
to the electors of this State to vote at
the next annual October election upon
the approval or rejection of the follow
ing amendment, as a substitute for the
first section of the fifth article of the
Constitution of this State, to wit:
"Every male citizen of the United
States of the age of twenty-one years,
who shall have been a resident of the
State next preceding the election, and
of the township or ward in which he
resides, such time as may be provided
by law, except such persons as have
borne arms in support of any insurrec
tion or rebellion against the Govern
ment of the United States, or have fled
from their places of residence to avoid
being drafted into the military service
thereof; or have deserted the military
or naval service of said Government in
time of war, and have not subsequent
ly been honorably discharged from the
same, shall have the qualifications of
an elector and be entitled to vote at
all elections."
THE INSANITY OF OFFICEHUNTING.—
Greeley has sotno sound philosophy on
this subject in the Tribuno of the lst
instant, which we give to our readers.
He says
Some of our readers will undoubt
edly remember the menagerie man's
description of an ambitious animal—
"He can't live in the water and be
dies on land ;" and this is precisely
the purgatorial position of a great many
seekers for office in Washington. If
the President smiles upon them, the
Senate frowns ; if they are distasteful
to the White House, there can be no
confirmation--and thus their money
is expended and their patience ex
hausted, while the rays of hope vouch•
safod to them are cold and scanty.
Under such distracting circum
stances, sensible men would pack their
valises, pay their tavern bills if possi
ble, and return to their sweet homes
without delay. Half the time and
money, and ingenuity, often expended
in fishing and fighting for a place of
small perquisites, and less honor,
would set these deluded gentlemen up
in business, and keep them profitably
going afterward. But there is a dis
temper which men• catch in lobbies
and canons rooms,which,without being
kind enough speedily to kill, makes
fools of them and sends thorn upon a
feverish chase after wild geese for the
rest of their days.
if anything could cure them it
would be the present dead-lock in
Washington ; but they are long past all
chance of recovery. The lesson which
they afford, we hope, will not be lost
upon our youthful and more unsophis
ticated readers. A stern resolution at
twenty-one, never to seek for place,
but to wait for place to seek him, will
be money in the pocket of any young
man wise enough to make and firm
enough to keep the wholesome vow.
The Democratic members of the
Pennsylvania Legislature caused a
salute to be fired over the Connecticut
el action from the same guns which
thundered over the Radical victory
last April, and the Radical members of
the Legislature attribute their signal
def eat to the efforts of Congress to
fort e nog,ro suffrage upon the North
ern states.
Tho Now Jury Law.
The following is a Copy of the jury
law lately passed by tho Legislature
SECTION 1. Be it enacted, d7c., That
on the general election to be held on
the second Tuesday of October, Ann°
Domini one thousand eight hundred
and sixty-seven, and tri-ennially there.
after, at such election, the qualified
electors of the several counties of this
Commonwealth shall elect, in the man
ner now provided by law for the elec
tion of other county officers, two sober,
intelligent and judicious persons to
serve as jury commissioners, in each of
said counties, for the period of three
years ensuing their election ; but the
same person or persons shall not be
eligible for re-election more than once
in tiny period of six years: Provided,
That each of said qualified electors

commissioner, and the two persons
having the greatest number of votes
for jury commissioner shall be duly

county.
-STEPHEN
SEC. 2. It shall be the duty of said
jury commissioners to meet at the seat
of justice of the respective counties, at
least thirty days before the first term
of the court of common pleas, in every
year and thereupon proceed, with duo
diligence, toselectfrom the whole male
taxable citizens of the respective
county at large, a number, such as at
the term of the court, of pleas next
preceding shall, by the said court, be
designated, of sober, intelligent and ju
dicious persons, to serve as jurors in
the several courts of such county, dur
ing that year; and if the said commis
sioners cannot agree upon the names
of the persons to bo selected by them
as jurors, they shall proceed as follows:
Each of the commissioners shall make
a list containing the names of one-half
of the requisite number• of persons, and
ten per cenLum in addition thereto,
and the proper number shall be ob
tained by each of said commissioners
striking from the list of furnished by
the other, a number equal to the said
addition ; and the names not stricken
out shall be the selection of the names
of jurors, and the said jury commis•
sioners shall, in the mode and manner
now directed by law, place the names
of persons so selected in the proper
jury wheel, and the said jury wheel
locked, as now required by law, shall
remain in the custody of the said jury
commissioners and the keys thereof in
the custody of said county.
Sac. 3. The said jury commissioners
and the Sheriff of the respective coun
ty, or any two of them, shall draw
from the proper jury wheel panels of
Jurors, as grand jurors of the proper
county, and as petit and traverse jur
ors, for the trial of issues in fact which
may be taken in any action in any of
the courts, civil and criminal, in the
several counties aforesaid, in the man
lier now practiced and allowed; but
before the said jury commissioners and
sheriff shall proceed to select or draw
jurors in the • manner aforesaid, they
shall severally take the oath or affir
mation now prescribed by law to be
taken by the sheriff and county corn
! missioner.•s before selecting and draw
ing jurors.
6E:C. 4. That se much of any act or
' acts of Assembly of this Common
wealth, as makes it the duty of the
sheriff and county commissioners of
any of said counties to select and draw
jurors, shall be repealed, and cease to
have any force or effect from and after
the first day of December next, Anno
Domini one thousand eight hundred
and sixty-seven : Provided, That all
acts, and parts of acts of Assembly,
now in force, in relation to the custo
dy, sealing and unsealing, locking and
opening of the jury wheel of the re
spective county, and all acts. and parts
of acts of Assembly, now in force, inn:
posing any penalty or punishment on
the sheriff and county commissioners.
or either of them, for anything done or
omitted by them in relation to the
keeping, locking, opening, sealing or
breaking the seal of any jury wheel,
or in relation to the selection or draw
ing of jurors, shall be taken, deemed
and held to apply to the said jury com
missioners and sheriff.
SEC. 5. Each of said jury commission
ers shall ho allowed and paid out of
the respeetivo county treasury two
dollars and fifty cents per day, and
four cents per mile, circular, from the
residence of the commissioners to the
court house.
SEC. G. It shall be the duty of each of
said jury commissioners to take upon
himself and discharge the duties of his
said office, under a penalty of one hun
dred dollers for each and every neglect
or refusal to attend the same, to be
sued for and recovered before any jus
tice of the peace of the proper county,
as debts of like amount aro now by law
recoverable, ten dollars of which shall
go to the person suing and the residue
to be paid by the said justice to the
treasurer of the respective county for
the use of the same.
SEC. 7. In case of the inability of
either or both of the said jury com
missioners, by sickness or death, or
other unavoidable causes, to discharge
the duties of said office, or in case of
neglect or refusal to servo thereon, it
shall be the duty of the president judge
in such county, wherein said vacancy
may have occurred, to appoint a suit
able person or persons, as the case may
be, possessing the qualifications afore
said, to perform the duties of said Oleo
during such vacancy, and such person
or persons, after having complied with
the requirements of the third section
of this act, shall proceed to discharge
the duties of said office the same as if
elected by the people, until the next
general election, when the people shall
elect a commissioner in lieu thereof,
ti! One phase in New Rork life is
illustrated by a curious little affair
which took place up town recently. It
seems that a gentleman, well known
in society, gave a large dinner party,
to which he invited both ladies and
gentlemen. The dinner was served
in the most elegant style, the table
cloth, we aro told, being white velvet,
and the china, glass and silver of the
most magnificent description. Soup
was served, then fish, and just as the
waiters wore preparing to bring on the
third course, and while the host was
relating a very interesting story, in
which ho was the hero—the folding
doors were suddenly thrown open, and
a man walked in, and, advancing to
the host, laid his band on his shoulder,
and said, in a voice loud enough for all
to hear, "I am the sheriff, sir,and have
a warrant for your :meg "

Pennsylvania Lagislaturo.
Harrisburg, April B.—Three more
days, and the Pennsylvania legislature
of 1867 will belong to the past. On
Thursday next at high moon, the gay
roosters will be dismissed by their re.
spec live presiding officers, and each
will weud his way, rather in sorrow
than in anger, to his own barn-yard.
it will be a sad and
.solumn scene, for
never befOre did such a congregation
of roosters meet and part. They aro
busy exchanging photographs with
each other, and most of them will bear
with them 'pictures" of the venerable
capitol—the place that once know them
but will henceforth know them no
more forever.
To ono principle this legislature has
been faithful. It has been inconsis
tent in defying the wishes of tho peo
ple on every important question. In
vain did the press, the organ of the
people, ask for the people the poor
privilege of deciding for themselves
whether they want constitutional re
form. It was enough to know that it
was desired, and it had no show what.
ever. Had the question of a conven
tion been submitted to the people,they
would have called one by not less than
ono Hundred thousand majority, and
by another year the disgrace of de
bauched legislatures, such as the ono
about to close, would have ended ; but
the people had no agents hero to buy
reform, and it fell to the ground. Mark
how earnestly the candidates of both
parties in all sections of the State, will
voluntarily pledge themselves, in the
next campaign, to favor a call for a
convention. No man will dare to say
in any:distriet,that he will deny to the
people the right to say whether they
want a convention or not, and no mat
ter who wins, a convention will be had
and substantial reform will be attain
ed. Les no man suppose for a moment
that the debauchery that rules here
is confined to any party. It has been
less conspicuous in the Democratic
party because it has been in a political
minority, but its thinned ranks are
just as thoroughly corrupted as the
other side. To fly from Ono party to
the other therefore, is simply to invite
the old regime of pollution back with
the additional evil of modern Democra
tic principle. Let the Republicans
maintain their organization in tact,but
lot them sou that no unworthy nomin
ations are made, and . it' made, let
them be stricken down regard
less of consequences. Let the
people be inflexible in demanding
who will return the question of reform
back to the fountain of power, to be
exorcised through a convention, and
reform will comp with beneficent fruits,
while if it is hoped for through ?Inland
'fleas to be proposed by the legisla
ture, it will be but a mockery and a
fraud. The people have the matter in
their own hands, and they cant restore
the government to purity if they will.
Shall it not he done ?
The Free Railroad struggle in the
House, on Wednesday evening, was a
novelty in its way. .Fiverybody pro
fessed to be for a free railroad law,and
for forty six voted for one sort of a law
while 36 voted for a different one,
just as if it made any di fterence,at this
late day, what the House might do in
the matter, If the House had passed
the Senate bill, it would have been
declared a cheat, and if it had passed
the defeated bill of the Senate, the
fight would end in a disagreement be
tween the two houses and no legisla
tion at all. It seems to Inc that be
tween these two upper and nether
millstones the free railroad policy has
about as much chance as a man would
have to scale Niagara in a ladies work
basket.
No CONGRESS THIS SIMMER —Sena•
tors Will separate this Week', tired of
the Capital, and with the understand
ing, as there was in the House of Rep
resentatives last month, that there will
be no session before December. In
the meantime, the Southern Conven.
tions will be held, and from all appear
ances, b 0 perfectly subdued and suffer
ing are the people of the South, the
majority in theSe Conventions will con
form to the laws of Congress,. As for
impeachment, wo regard it as practi
cally over. The Judiciary Committee
will sit, hear evidence, deliberate, and
in time report, but as there is no plea
upon which the President can, even
upon party grounds, plausibly be im
peached, the end of the solemn throe
will come sooner than was at one time
expected. This for 1867. In 1868,
after the first six months, the attention
of the people will be given to Mr.
Johnson's successor. The nomination
of May of Juno will be followed by the
summer and autumn campatgn, and so
practically end all that belongs to the
noise and passion of long-threatened
impeachment.—New York Express.
The Supreme Court was not in ses•
sin today, but the judges held their
usual conference in cases already sub
mitted. It is said that on Monday,
unless the counsel desire more time for
argument, a decision will be rendered
refusing the motion to file a bill for an
injunction to prohibit the enforcement
of the Reconstruction Act in Mississip
pi, on the ground that the court has
not original jurisdiction.

The New Territory.
Our new territorial acquisition ,front
ing on the Pacific and Arctic Oceans,
can now he considered on its merits.
For better or for worse, we have now
got Russian America. The Senate,
which bait the best opportunities for
learning all that is known about its
value, decided all but unanimously for
its acquisition. Radieal joined hands
with Democrat, New England with
Kentucky and California, to secure the
domain which our diplomacy had pla
ced within grasp. The spectacle was
a pleasant one; for it was'the first oc
casion during many years on which
men of all parties acted together fur a
national and patriotic object.
We do not, by any means, imagine
that Sitka, Kuitchpek, Behring, or
whatever the new Territory may he
called, will prove, even under Ameri
can enterprise, the most inviting por
tion of the American Union. Even
:Ur. Seward is not accused of holding
out any such prospect. But wo be
lieve it is quite as wide of the mark to
represent the entire country as worth
less. Those who have talked this way
have done so either from ignorance or
merely from opposition to the aequisi-
Lion because it was brought about by
the administration. The sources of
knowledge about the country were
new, and not of recent date. We had
some items from books of travel, some
notes in the cyclopedias, and we gath
ered a few fitets from American ex-
Morel's, navigators, or adventurers
drifted northward from oar Pacific
territories ' within the lust twenty
years. Limited as nil these were, they
were yet sufficient to show that the
Russian American possessions had
sources of prosperity which Russia had
never developed, and moreover,
had a value to us which they never
could have to the Russian government.
The vast distances which separated
thorn from the centres of Russian
population and enterprise, and the
more inviting field open to, Russians
in other quarters, caused them to be
neglected by all but a few traders,who
settled mostly on the islands of the
coast. But that the fisheries have
proved valuable to them, and will
prove far more so to us ; that the
great supplies of lumber can be made
available in a region where it is of the
uttermost itnportanco ; that the fur
trade has been carried on to a largo
extent, and yet opens up great oppor
tunities; that minerals and ores abound
I and can be worked to advantage ; that
the commercial value of the Aleutian
Islands is of prime consequence to our
opening oriental trade; these are mat
ters which are no more open to dis
pute than existence of the territory
itself. Our fellow citizens of the Pa
cific wore quick to apprehend the
bearing of those things on their future
prospects, and have not been slow in
letting the Senate know their opinion
as to its duty in the premises.
It will doubtless take us a year or
two to learn much more than we now
know about this important and distant
territorial acquisition; but we confi
dently believe that time will justify
the wisdom of President Johnson's
administration in making the treaty.—
