,Great floods and terrific hurri
canes have occurred in the central and
western portions of New York, and in
Vermont, Massachusetts and States

away in various localities, making up
a very heavy aggregate of loss.

the Quakers into accepting office under
him. They are to take charge of the
Indians and teach them civilization,

11lirChief Justice Chase has decided
in the Butler—Kimberly case that a
member of Congiess is not exempt
from arrest in a civil suit. In his
opinion members are only exempt
from - forcible detention looking to im

per 'Simon Cameron said in the Sen
ate of the United States that in his
opinion, Gov. Curtin was not the choice
of the Republican party of Pennsylva
nia, for the mission to Russia. If he
was not, who was, pray ? Was it the
Senator himself? On another occa
sion, Simon stigmatized a friend of
Curtin's whose name was before the
Senate on confirmation as a "Constitu
tional drunkard." Let us have peace
~Political Doctors will differ. The
Journal d American, Republican,speak
ing of Capt. B. X. Blair's appointment
as Post Master for this place, says :
"The appointment, as might reason
ably be supposed, is regarded by our
citizens generally as ono of the most
unpopular that.could have been made."
The Atonitor, Democratic, says :
O We are pleased to note the fact
that the appointment gives general
satisfaction."
AV-Seven women two of whom wore
colored, presented themselves to the
13oard of Registry of Washington the
other day, And requested that their
names be placed on the list of qualified
voters now being prepared. They
also presented the following paper,
containing their signatures :
To the Judges of Election of the City of
Tfra-ehinYton ; The undersigned residents of
. the First Ward, request that our names be
placed on the list of qualified voters, which
you are engaged in preparing. Wo know
that it is unusual for those of our sex to
make such a request; we do so because we
believe ourselves_ entitled to the franchise.
We are ready to make oath that we aro in
other respects qualified. We do not know
that any law expressly forbids you to com
ply with our request. If such there be, we
hereby solemnly protest against an exclusion
from the highest privilege of Amer', an chi
7enship, to which our consent has never been
asked.
The Board received the paper, and
promised to give it due consideration,
Their appearance attracted considera
ble attention, but they declared that
they did not experioricp any remark
able inconvenience, and were not sub
jected to any disagreeable remarks.
"The Dear People,"
- flow often have we heard this phrase
from the lips of politicians. During
times of political excitement it is as
common among them as the shaking
of hands and tho "flow d'ye do ?" of
every day life. Indeed, so common is
it that we have been led to wonder
whether any amount of earnestness
can be placed upon its utterance ;
whether the expression is merely the
result of custom or of heartfelt signi
ficance. We aro inclined to think that
much of it is buncombe; for the actions
of many mon in position belie their
assertions when seeking that position,
We do not say this by way of reflec
ting upon the actions of any man in
position, but merely give it as our
opinion as being one of tho lesser evils
of society, with which we are obser
vant. It is an expression, all will ad
mit, that too many men make use of
for effect; and it is one too which, like
every other evil, will work out its own
result, and thus make itself apparent.
A man found guilty in the eyes of the
people of betraying their interests, as
a body, which he professed, while seek
ing their suffrages, he would to the
best of his ability maintain, will sooner
or later meet with just retribution at
their hands.
The dear people, as they are called,
will endure much; they suffer long, and
are not as ready as some people sup
pose, to treat a man unjustly. There
is a feeling of common sympathy im
planted in their breasts that will ex
tend itself to every human being; and
it is only when their claims are re
peatedly ignored and their wants defi
antly overlooked, that they will turn
their faces against him who forsakes
them. We have seen and heard of
men who have kept long in position
that have defied public opinion, but
this was the result of want of 'proper
enlightenment in regard to their ac
tions. A man of influence can do much
to injure the reputation of a fellow
man who is exalted to position, for
slander works great mischief in all
communities; but the record of an
honest man will often controvert the
misrepresentations of those who try
to injure him.
We believe in the people, and where
is the man who does not. They aro
not to be treated with contempt nor
indifference. The individual who at
tempts to got along without the aid and
sympathy of the people has a wretch
ed pilgrimage. Ile is looked upon as
sordid and selfish—as ono who cares
nothing for the progress and eleva
tion of his fellow-man, and who there
fore is not worthy a place in the hearts
of his countrymen: It is to point out
the hypocrisy of the human heart that
we thus refer to this subject; and it is
to keep over before tho minds of per
sons who have been honored with po
sitions by the "dear people," that we
indite this article, hoping that they
will not forget their professions of faith
in them, nor fancy themselves secure,
for they are in a slippery place, and
their deeds aro open to the criticism of
a critical public as well as a "dear peo
ple." "Love thy neighbor as thyself"
is an injunction they well should heed.
Election of County Superintendents.
For the information of School Di.
rectors and others, we give the follow
ing extract, relating to the eligibility
of persons to the office of County Su
perintcndent. This act was approved
on the 9th day of April 1867.
SEc. 13. That no person shall here
after be eligible to the office of coun
ty, city, or borough Superintendent, in
any county •of this Commonwealth,
who does not possess a diploma from a
college, legally empowered to grant
literary degrees, a diploma, or State
certificate, issued, according to law,
by the authorities of a State Normal
School, a professional certificate . from
a county, city, or borough, Superin
tendent of good standing, issued at
least one year prior to the election, or
a certificate of competency from the
State Superintendent of common
Schools, nor shall such person be eligi
ble, unless he has a sound moral char
acter, and has had successful experience
in teaching, within three years of the
Limo of his election. * * * * *
This is all of the act relating to the
eligibility of persons to tho office. A
proviso is given relative to the evi
dence of oligibilty to the Superinten
dent of Common Schools,,&c &c.
THE PROSPECTS OF A WAR IN EUROPE.
is evident to every thoughtful
reader that a'terrific conflict of arms
in Europe is inevitable at almost any
moment. All Europe is preparing for
war, while tho only talk is of peace.—
The crowned heads are jealous of each
other, as well as fearful of the power
the others wield. Combinations aro
being formed between France, Italy
and Austria, against Prussia and of
course the cunning and ambitious Na.
poleon is at the head. The success of
Prussia, in her war with Austria has
aroused the fear and the ire of Napo
leon and he seeks to humble her,but that
yet remains to be accomplished, and
whether it will not endanger his own
Empire, is a question that might very
properly be considered England has
enough to do to take care of ber own
affairs without meddling with others.
She will not fight unless in self-defence.
The clouds of war aro rapidly gather
ing over Europe and may burst out
at any day.
The Covington (Incl.) "Free Prose
tells of a man at that place, who is a
candidate for postmaster, going into
the churchyard to copy names from
the tomb stones to go on his petition..
rel,The following act, allowing "par
ties in interest to be witnesses," hav
ing passed both houses of the Legisla
ture, and been approved by the Gov
ernor, is now a law of Pennsylvania :
SECTION 1. BC it enacted by the Senate
and House of Representatives of the Com
monwealth of Pennsylvania in General
Assembly met, and it is hereby enacted
by the authority of the same, That no
interest nor policy of law shall exclude
a party or 'person from being a wit
ness in any civil proceeding; provided,
this act shall not alter the law as now
declared and practised in the courts of
tbig Commonwealth, so as to allow
husband and wife to testify against
each other, nor counsel to testify to
the confidential communication of his
client; and this act shall not apply to
actions by or against executors, ad
ministrators, o• guardians, no• where
the assignor of the thing or contract in
action may be dead, excepting in is
sues and inquiries devisavit eel non and
others respecting the right of such do
ceased owner, between parties claim
ing such right by devolution on the
death of such owner.
SEC. 2. That a party to the record
of any civil proceeding in law or equi
ty, or a person for whose immediate
benefit such proceeding is prosecuted
or defended, may be examined as if
under cross examination at the in
stance of the adverse party of any of
them, and for that purpose may be
compelled in the same manner and
subject to the same rules for examina•
tion as any other witness to testify;
but the party calling for such exami
nation shall not be concluded thereby,
but may rebut it by counter testimony.
SEC. 3. That the testimony of wit
nesses authorized by this act may be
had by deposition or commission issu
ed as the case may require, with such
notice to the party to be examined
and to the adverse party as is now or
may hereafter be prescribed by the
rules of the proper court touching the
taking of depositions and testimony on
commission.
THE LATE LEGISLATURE —The fol
lowing is a summary of the action up
on some of the most important bills
before the State Legislature :
Tho general Registry law, which
includes Philadelphia, passed both
Houses.
The Cattle Market bill passed the
Senate, but was killed in the House.
The revised tax bill, taxing coal oil
and whiskey, passed the House, and
was killed in the Senate.
The adulteration of Drugs bill, was
killed in the _House committee.
The militia law, reducing the tax
from $2, to 50 cents, was defeated in
the Senate.
The bill to create a State Board of
public charities passed both Houses.
The bill taxing national banks and
savings institutions ono per cont. on
their capital, and exempting them
from all local taxation, passed both
Houses
Both Metropolitan Police bills were
killed by the Senate, us was also the
Metropolitan Telegraph bill.
The bill allowing parties to be wit
nesses in their .own own eases has
passed both Houses.
The Broad Street Omnibus bill, was
killed in the Senate.
The bill authorizing the Governor
to commute the death penalty, was
vetoed by the Governor.
The bill abolishing capital punish
ment, was killed in the louse.
The, hill driving farmers off Second
street Phila , was defeated in the
House.
The bill changing the rule in Shel
ley's case, was defeated.
The proposition to repeal all laws
exempting property from taxation,
was incorporated in. the general Tax
bill, and was of course defeated.
The bill requiring coal mines to be
ventilated passed both Houses.
The cruelty to animals bill passed.
The American brig Mary Low
ell was recently captured by a Span
ish war frigate off one of the Bahama
Islands, and as far as known, the cap
ture was a gross violation of a princi
ple generally recognized in interna
tional law. The Spanish admiralty
court, having however, declared the
American vessel a legal prize, for rea
sons not yet known to ue, our Govern
ment, according to a cable dispatch,
has officially demanded from the'Bri
tish Government an explanation in
relation to the case. As the outrage
of the American flag occurred within
British territory, the case, in the opin
ion of our Government, is in the first
place one between the United States
and England. The English Govern
ment must explain why they did not
protect the American flag. The Span
ish Government has had of late more
than one difficulty of the same kind
with foreign Governments.
WISE TARES A HELIOCENTRIC VIEW.
--Henry A. Wise says that God "order
ed and directed and forced the result
of etnaucipation of slaves in America,
knowing that there was no other way
to bring it about," and that he (Wise),
taking a "heliocentric view," agrees
with God, and is glad slavery is gone.
The New York East Conference
of the Methodist Church, at its late
session, has taken the position that
Methodists must not only refrain from
whiskey, brandy, rum, gin, curoacoa
and absinthe—not only from. porter,
,ale and lager-beer--not only from
mixed drinks and all sorts of bar-room
concoctions, but they must abjure the
use of cider and domestic wines as
beverages. They must "abandon the
patronage of those physicians who
prescribe alchoholic mixtures freely."
They must labor for prohibitory en
actments against the liquor traffic.—
They must commit their conscience as
to the "expediency and oven the right
fulness" of using intoxicating, wine for
sacramental purposes. They must,
by precept and example, discontinue
the use of the powerful narcotic tobac
co. And the Conference required each
clergyman under its jurisdiction' to
preach, at least once a year, a sermon
embodying these principles.
Kansas has appropriated $1,400 to
bey tobacco for the prisoners in the
,State ;Penitentiary.
THE BANKRUPT LAW.—As the law
now stands no person can obtain the
benefit of the act unless he is able to
pay fifty per cent. of his liabilities, or
unless he can obtain the consent of a
majority of his creditors, who may bo
willing to accept whatever he, as a
debtor, is able to pay out of hie estate
—in ease he has any. if a party com
mits an act of bankruptcy by the stop
page of his commercial paper, or
makes an assignment of his goods or
property in fraud of certain creditors,
other creditors claiming to be do.
frauded by such procedure have the
power of petitioning the Court to de
clare such a person bankrupt within
the meaning of the law.
