A. PouoiAs fts../dany persons say business is dull and times are hard, simply because they contrast the more quiet movements and the slower gains of the present with the unnatural activity and the in ordieate profits of war times. The man who made one hundred thousand dollars in the year of 1861. thinks times are.very dull now, because lie makes this year, perhaps, only half that amount; when very probably in any year before the war he would have been amply content with such a business as ho is now doing. The fact, is, there was so much speculation during the wor;lortunes were made so rapidly and'eaeily, and business of , all kinds was transacted on such an inflated scale, that men have hardly yet re gained their senses, and find it ex tremely difficult and irksome to return to the old order of things. 'WENomous'—The attempt of the Globe to implicate our Congressman in an arrangement for the poet office here. This insinuation amounts to about as much as any thing oleo emanating from that source. "—Journal & American. Not quite so fast, Mr. Nash & Co. Your wholesale attempt to cover up your tracks is played out in this noigh boyhood. if Mr. Morrol had nothing to do with the post Office arrangement for this place why did you represent •to -the candidates that you had instruc tions from him to make the best ar rangements with them you could—and any ono you would name would be confirmed. Did you not demand from Mr. Miller $5OO to secure his confirma tion? You might have done it with ono as anxious to turn a penny, at the sac rifice of prineiFle, as yourself. If you, in your haste to make a "ten strike" were foolish enough to "blow" on a friend, that is yourfault, not ours. To get out of a very unpleasant standing with your friends, don't "go back" on yourself. Stand by the truth at all times and you will be respected for that at least. .The York Republican, Radical to tho backbone, thus discourses in regard to the shameful character of the last Log- itilaturo "We desire 'nothing to extenuate, and set down naught in malice; and `with charity to all,' but demanding in flexible fidelity to the people from their official representatives, we hold it tgo be our duty as conductor of a public journal—even though the work be vol untary and gratuitous—to sot down rnattersjust as they present themselves to our observation and judgment. The late Legislature cannot afford to be charged with more than it deserves. It is precisely in the position of the trembling culprit before the bar of the criminal conrt, who, being assured by the Judge that be should receive jus tice, replied, 'Shure, that is just what I am afraid of, your honor!' The members were very dear ac $2,500 each. The people can parody the sen timental song and say, "Though false to trust, to pockets dear." If Republican and Democratic pa pers generally would talk thus plain, members of the Legislature of both parties would be more honest, or be sure never to be returned. A divide of the stealings is sufficient to close the eyes and the months of some party or gans to the corruptions of offiee-holders. WllO 13 TO BLAME ?—There is on the part of the corrupt logislatora baseness which is peculiar. The &salon ho occupies is a fiduciary ono. Ho has solicited and accepted a public trust. He is bo - ind to conduct himself in it, not for his own private ends, but for the public good. When, therefore, be turns aside from the legitimate path of a popular representative ; and is con trolled in his actions by motives of personal gain—when he pollutes his hands with a bribe, he descends to a very ignominious depth of crime. He has outraged the rights of society far more grossly than does the ordinary thief; the burglar, or the counterfeiter, for he has violated a most sacred trust, and has prostituated an honorable pub lic position to the most dishonorable ends. And just bore is the inconsistency of society, that while the thief; the burglar, and the counterfeiter are kick ed out of all decent companionship, and made to feel that they have lost all standing among the virtuous and the respectable, the corrupt legislator, notorious as such, apparently loses nothing socially by his dishonorable and dobt.sing career. Wo say appar ently, for there-must be in every hon est man's bosom a feeling of infinite contempt for the wretch ; but to all external appearance be comes and goes among his fellow-men as much respected and honored as over. This thing ought to bo changed. So ciety ought to put the seal of ite pub lic disapprobation upon such villany, and make it socially as disreputable as are the more ordinary and less guilty class of crimes. But to do this society itself must bo more pure, and must cease its idolatry at the shrine of Mammon. As long as wealth atones for everything in the public oyo, the root of the difficulty will remain to throw up new shoots as fast as we cut down the old ones.—Philadelphia Even ing Telegraph. Tho Registers for the District of Columbia have recorded 7,064 colored cotes and 7 077 white votes. SUPREME JUDGE.—Horace, the know ing correspondent of the Franklin Re pository, from Harrisburg, writes as follows upon the present situation as regards the candidates for Chief Jun. tic°. Although it looks very favor ably for Huntingdon yet the political wire-pullers may change things consid erably : "It is now well nettled that Judge Shorewood, of Philadelphia, will be the _Democratic candidate for Supreme Judge. Ho has been formally waited upon by anumbor of leading Democrats and has given his consent to run. Al ready a number date leading Democra tic journals have declared for him, and be will be nominated by acclamation. A feeble effort has been made, and is still being made, to re-nominate ex-Chief Justice Lowrie,of Pittsburg; but it has little popular support, and will Boon give way entirely before the predeter mined purpose of the leaders to pre sent Judge Shorewood. You may, therefore, set it down that he will be the nominee, and tho wise politicians on the Republican side, will at once appreoiato the fact that be is the strongest man the broken column of Democracy . could rally around. Ho is an able, upright judge, personally popular, and, whatever may have been his convictions, he has made no record, either judicially or otherwise, against the government during the late rebel lion. On Or Republican side there is no concentration of opinion in favor of any particular candidate. Judge Pear son would doubtless be nominated but for his ago. Re is deemed too old to place ou the court of last resort for a term of fifteen years. He is ono of our ablest and purest judges, but a younger man will ho sought for. .11 John Scott, of Huntingdon, would ac cept the positionAhe would be nomina ted; but be is not a candidate, and I learn would not allow the nee of his name. Judge Taylor, of the same place, is strongly urged, as is Judge Linn, of Centre, and Judgeßutler, of Chester, and various others on the Common Pleas bench ; but I look for the choice to fall upon either Taylor or Linn. Either would make a strong candidate, and a most "acceptatdo judge." • -STEEN EN A National Home for Invalid Soldiera. It will be a subject of gratification to the soldiers and the soldiers friends to learn that an effort is being made to erect a national home for Invalid sol diers at Gettysburg. Wo call atten tion to the advertisement of the Get tysburg Asylum for Invalid Soldiers, and herewith publish a notice of this benevolent enterprize, taken from the Philadelphia Press, of the 28th ult : "Measures aro now in hand which are calculated, after the lapse of a few mouths, to establish, on a grand scale, tho desideratum—a National home for Invalid soldiers. The design is an ad mirable one, and is as follows is well known that all efforts to obtain voluntary subscriptions sufficient to erect a Soldiers' home have been with out avail. In furtherance of the ob ject, however, the Legislature of Penn sylvania have passed an act dated March 6, 1867, creating a corporation of which Major• Gen. Geo. G. Meade is President,and Gen. Horatio G. Sickels is Treasurer, with an efficient board of supervisors, who have the power to distribute to the holders of certificates a large number of immensely valuable gifts, consisting of diamonds, pearls, emeralds, rubies, &c., purchased from citizens of the Southern States during the rebellion, and which articles will soon bo exhibited in this city. By this scheme it is confidently anticipated a large fund will be created towards the erection of the Home. A great feat ure of the affair consists in the fact that every purchaser of the certificates becomes a contributor to this Nation al Home fund, and at the same time has a direct interest in the distribution of the rare gems mentioned above. The details of the entire scheme will be conducted in a perfectly fair and honorable manner. The site for the Home has already been purcbased,and consists of thirty acres of laud, used by General Meade during the battle of Gettysburg as his headquarters. The plan has been approved by ex- Governor Carlin, Major Gen. Meade, Governor Geary, and a large number of prominent military heroes." 1E41.. The Albany Journal, without denying the charge of corruption brought against the Legislature, main tains it should not even if true, ho made by Republican journals. Whore. upon the N. Y. nines remarks, if this is the decipline - that is to prevail, "then the office of a party organ is a post much more contemptible than any honorable man ought to be asked or expected to fill." The Tribune, back ed by the Union League, reverses the position ; because the charge is true it holds all the more pressing is the duty to expose corruption, and call on the people to apply the remedy. Other wise the party will bo made to ,bear the odium that properly attaches to the corruptionists. Which is the better organ, the journal that denounces, or the one that seeks to hide corruption At Harrisburg, as at Albany, there is a Republican journal which would stifle expres3ion--thus give perpetual license to the corruptionists, and make the party boar the odium. Without a word of rebuke for those who sell their votes, it manifests great concern for the "honest mon" who will suffer from a repetition of the charge. Rogues, ever since the world began, have at tempted to bide behind honest men— a trick they will avail themselves of just as long as the hush policy can be enforced. But honest mon have noth ing to fear from the exposure of cor ruption in the Legislature, and the in terest which the rogues manifest for them is the evidence of how much they fear their own rascality will be exposed. The time has come, how ever, for the sifting process, and it is to be hoped that at least a majority of the rogues will, in future, be compelled to remain outside the State Capitol. T - Commercial. A gentleman in Hartford, Connecti cut, has had manufactured to order a veritable wooden nutmeg. It is made from the bark of the Charter Oak, and is so complete an imitation that it ac tually deceived a dealer in the article, who offered the market price for a car go of the sort. = Pen and Scissors Late Idaho advices represent Indi ans committing numerous outrages. The receipts of Internal Revenue for the week were 56,890,351 49. Disbarse ments for tho week $1,896,362. The Nevada State Prison was de stroyed by fire on the lot inst. None of the prisoners escaped from custody. Four thousand bushels of California wheat was purchased in Philadelphia, during the past week, says the Com mercial List, at $3 40 per bushel, for shipment to Pittsburgh. A cable dispatch states that the Emperor of Brazil has abolished sla very throughout his dominions. Chil dren are to attain freedom on reach ing the ago of twentyono. Seventy thousand Germans, it is said, have engaged passage by steam to tho United States. The new Prus sian conscription laws are driving many to our country. A fire at Rochester, N. Y., Saturday morning, destroyed property to the amount of 5100,000. Three persons aro known to have been buried in the ru ins, and it is feared others perished. The wife of President Juarez was present at a reception given by Secre tary Seward to the diplomatic corps, on Saturday evening. She is said to have attracted as muchattontion as the Japanese Embassadors. The Mobilocolorod convention unan imously resolved that it is the umlo niable right of nogroes to hold office, sit on juries, ride in all public convey ances, sit at public tables, and visit places of public amusement. Justice is in danger in Texas. A Judge of that State writes that no Court will be held . in his county this spring, because the Indians have stol en all the horses, and neither lawyers nor clients oan procure conveyances. _Robert Toombs, of Georgia, has re• contly written a letter accepting the situation, saying: "No true patriot South will forsake his native land. Let us remain hero and endeavor by the favor of God'to build up our waste places." An unusual mortality prevails among the Vermont !limbs. Some of the most experienced shCop raisers are the greatest losers, The rot also prevails among the sheep. Ono farmer in Kir by has lost 57 since March .set in from this disease. Elevator A, on 16th street, Chicago, bolonglng to Armour, Doh) & Co., was destroyed by fire on Saturday. Loss 200,000, fully insured. ' Six firemen were buried in the ruins, three of whom were rescued but 'little injured, the others being dead. Meterological records kept at Sitka in Russian America, by the Russian Government, aro.said to show at that place, in latitude 57.03 degrees, the springs, summers and autumns are colder, but the winters aro warmer than in Philadelphia. It is well known that the climate of the Pacific coast is much milder than in the same latitudes along the Atlantic border. The New York Evening Gazette tells young ladies what to beware of if they would have afresh, healthy and yonth ful appearance : "Late hours, largo crinoline, tight corsets, confectionery, hot bread, cold draughts,pastry, decol late dress, modern novels, furnace registers, easy carriages ' late suppers, thin shoes, fear of knowlodgo, nibbling between meals, ill•tomper, haste to marry, dread of growing old." There is little change in the aspect of affairs in Chicago. Work has been partially resumed in some establish ments. No work of consequence is be ' ing done at either railroad shops or freight depots. Resolutions were adop ted by the strikers Saturday night, in sisting on eight hours as a legal day's work, and expressing their willingness to accept . eight • hours' pay for eight hours' labor. Correspondents and others travel ing in the South say that it is a com mon thing, in almost every State they passed through, to see white women laboring in the fields. This 'is one of the most marked and conclusive evidences of an inferior grade of civilization. No women North could be found, unless it were among the commonest class of German emigrants—who would drive ploughs_ or hoe out corn and sugar. Several years ago a political con vention in a New England State nom inated a quiet well-to.do farmer for the office of Lieutenant Governor. The nominee graciously received the com mittee appointed to wait upon him at his residence, and after expressing his thanks for the honor conferred upon him, informed the committee that he had peculiar qualifications for Lieuten ant Governor, "for gentlemen" said ho, "that is just the office I have held in my house for the past twenty-five years." Notwithstanding the contradictory character of the news from Mexico, enough of the truth is known hero to make it evident that the Empire is at an end, and that Maximilian will be fortunate if he succeeds in escaping the toils of the liberals with a whole skin. The moment Juarez occupies the city of Mexico, Minister Campbell will be instructed to go thither, and the recognition of the Liberals as the constitutional government of Mexico will ho continued, despite the efforts made there to force the claims of Orte ga upon the notice of the administra tion. Tui N . \roof, ItmtEsT.—Tho growth and manufacture of wool is one of the branches of industry that has grown immonsoly during the last few years in tho United States. Both in quality of the wool and the excellence of tho articles made from it, the manufactur es of this article will compare favor bly with a large portion of tho foreign importations, and it is reasonable to expect that ore long we will be able to rival to the finest woolen litbries pro duced in Europe. Duridg the year 1866 the wool growth in the United States amounted to 137,000,000 pounds. We have 1,600 woolen mills, containing 65,000 sets of carding machines, which are capable of . working up 170,000 pounds of the raw material. Tanning with chestnut wood has been introduced to the notice of "La Hallo aux Curls," of Paris, by J. Algetiero, Jr., a tanner at Lyons. He claims that the tanning obtained from this source instead of the bark, makes loather of peculiar fineness, uniformi ty and excellence of color, and superi or quality in all respects as compared with the best oak tanned, NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. -N0 T I C E persons having clalthe against the Parsonage belonging to tho First Regular Baptist Church of Ountingdon, are hersby notified to present the same, in proper form, at the office of E.
