A MALICIOUS SLANDER
The last ..lianitor contained the following
malicious slander, in an article commenting
upon the nomination of John Dean, Esq.,
as the Republican candidate for President
Judge of this Judicial district :
EDITOR
"Mr. Dean is said to be an al,le lawyer and a
clever gentleman, yet if the charges openly prefer
red against him upon our streets, during the past
two weeks, be true, he is not a proper person for
the important office of President Judge. We refer
to the assertions made by many respectable Repub
licans that he paid Dr. Orlady one thousand dollars
to set up the Republican Convention in his inter
-04. If this charge be true Mr. Dean has been
guilty of conduct which should forever disqualify
him for the office he aspires to, and we hope those
who claim to know the facts of the matter will at
once give them to the public, that our people may
vote intelligently. We do not wish to he under
stood as preferring this charge against Mr. Dean
or would we lend our columns to aid in the circula
tion of a libel of him, but the matter we refer to
has been so boldly proclaimed, by his own parti
sans, that we deem it but simple justice to thus
publicly call attention to it in the hope that if false
the proof thereof will be presented, and if true that
the people will have ample time and opportunity
to reflect upon it."
We brand the imputation that Air. Dean
paid Dr. Orlady, or anybody else, ia this
county, a single farthing to set up the
Republican Convention as a MOST MALI
CIOUS AND DELIBERATE FALSEHOOD.
And, now, Mr. Monitor, we want to know
who makes this charge ? Come, give us
the names of the "many respectable Re
publicans ?" No halting or squirming
about it, but come right square up to the
mark, or acknowledge that thismendacious
falsehood was imposed upon you by some
of your friends, who very likely manufac
tured it out of whole cloth. Iferaia a very,
simple way of getting out of this matter,
and we insist upon your doing it, or the
Monitor will be held responsible for the
manufacture of this piece of malice. We
know that the Monztor is given to Exagge
ration, when alluding to this subject,
because we recollect its account of the
Republican Convention in which it
reported a passage at arms between Prof.
Guss and Dr. Orlady, in which the former
is represented to have used very undigni
fied and ungentlemanly language, when no
such language was used.
We are satisfied that there was no sub
ject before the County Convention that
was adopted with greater unanimity than
the selection of free and independent con
ferees to represent us in the Judicial Con
ference. The best men in the Convention,
amongst whom were Dr. John McCulloch,
Samuel MeVitty, Esq., and Dr. A. R.
McCarthy, were decidedly in favor of the
course adopted, and we know that these
men represented the wishes of the people.
Beyond this, the gentlemen who were ap
pointed Conferees are men of character
and standing and above being parties to
such an infamous transaction. We repeat
that the story is a falsehood out of whole
cloth, and until the Monitor gives us the
names of those upon whom it would shove
the responsibility it must be held to be the
author of this malicious slander.
gel. That tried and faithful friend of
the temperance cause, Pennell Coombe,
Secretary of the State Temperance Union,
offers to discuss,with the temperance party
men, the following propositions. He pro
poses to take the affirmative : .
1. The August convention and its action is in
violation of the plan to which these men pledged
their support in the May convention.
2. This movement is intended by its leaders to
the last Lees to give -anther Local Option,
and to aid the Democrats, who by a *trice party
vote in the Senate defeated that measure.
3. That this new party must, of necessity, result
in great injury to the temperance cause, and that
every vote cast for their State ticket will be virtu
ally a vote for the liquor party of Pennsylvania.
This shows very clearly the animus of
the new movement. Let temperance men
keep clear of it.
tea.. The shouts of VICTORY come
floating on the air from the South and the
West ! California has elected a Republi
can Governor by over 6000 majority, a
change of 16,000 ! The city of Wilming
ton elects a Republican Mayor by 383,
reversing the order of things in that neck
of woods, and from Wyoming territory
comes the intelligence that the Republi
cans have carried the Senate, which has
been heretofore Democratic. How are
you, New Departure ? The signs of the
times indicate a rousing triumph in Penn
sylvania on the second Tuesday of October.
NEB_ WeCall attention to a communica
tion, in another column, written by Hon.
S. T. Brown, on the re-districting of the
State Judicially. His facts and figures
are indisputable, and they exhibit sdch a
case that will satisfy any candid mind
that, in this district at least, some provision
should be made for the relief of judge,
lawyers and suitors. We hope that his
suggestion will be received with favor, and
that the next Legislature will cut up the
State into Judicial districts that will be
much less burdensome.
ne., The Richmond Enquirer, a Demo
cratic organ, appeals earnestly to the col
ored voters of Virginia to desert the Re
publican party and vote the Democratic
ticket. In this section the Democratic
papers see a "nigger" in every wood-pile,

am, The Harrisburg Patriot has dwelt
upon "bribery, corruption and robbery,"
day in and day out for months, and at last,
as if despairing of being able to do the
subject justice, exclaims wildly: "Rob

suppose that it is thundering at Tammany
plunderers. Oh no ! They be honest folk
in its eyes.
Leer The Republicans of Bedford county
held an enthusiastic meeting on Tuesday
evening of last week, at Bedfoid, which was
attended by hundreds. The meeting was
addressed by John Lutz, Esq., and Hon.
John Cessna, who made telling speeches.
The Republicans of Bedford county are
becoming aroused. They mean work.

Da., The Monitor is out of humor with

was in favor of human slavery in the Dis

Judicial Districts
EDITOE JOURNAL :—At the next election, law
Judges will be elected in a large number of the
Judicial districts of this State. This would,
therefore, seem a Atting time to give some at
tention to the proper organization of our dis
tricts and the proper distribution of the Judi-
cial force of the State.
There is no question of greater importance
before the people. We do not propose to dis
cuss, or even allude to ; the claims or qualifica
tions of candidates, but we have been convin
ced for years that our districts ought to be
re-organized throughout the State. It must
be remembered that our Judges are State offi
cers and paid by the State.
When the State was districted in 1834, it
was with reference to the population and bu
siness existing at that time, but in the lapse of
nearly forty years, within which there has been
no general re organization of districts, there
has been great inequality iu the increase of
population, and still more in the increase of
Judicial business in the several districts. It
is true that during this in'erval, the Judicial
force of the State has been considerably in
creased, but it has generally been by speci , al
acts of the legislature authorizing the appoint
ment or election of additional law Judges in
districts where the pressure of business bad
become too great to be boon, and occasionally
by erecting a new district out of parts of old
ones. The plan of electing additional law
Judges, has not been found to work well, es
pecially in the country districts. When the
business of a district becomes too much for
one Judge it does not necessarily follow that
it would require the whole time of two Judges,
and there are other difficulties in limiting and
dividing the business between two Judges in
the same district. Our own district of Hun
tingdon, Blair, and Cambria, was formed in
1849. During the twenty-two years which
have since elapsed the population has increas
ed by about one third, while the legal business
of the several counties in the district has more
than doubled, the Judicial force meanwhile
remaining the same. A few figures based upon
the census of 1870 will illustrate.
---- _
There are at present forty-seven law Judges
in the State. This number applied to the
whole population gives an average of one Judge
to every 61,000 of population. (We omit frac
tions for the sake of convenience.) Even as
suming that the whole number of Judges is
sufficient, if properly distributed, how is our
district served in the distribution ? Take the
figures and compare them with two or three
of the surrounding districts:
Blair
Cambria
Huutingdon
Mifflin .
Snyder.
Union..
. ..... 29,635
45,382
...... 9,330
28,225
Bedford..,
Franklin.
Fulton....
Somerset
The Bedford district has two law Judges,
Hon. W. M. Hall and Hon. D, W. Rowe, giving
a population in this district of 56,28 G to each
Judge.
The Mifflin, Snyder and Union district has a
population of less than half the Huntingdon,
Blair and Cambria district, and the counties
composing that district being almost entirely
agricultural, there is perhaps less Judicial bu
sin, ss in the whole district than in any one of
the counties c'lmposing the Huntingdon dis
trict. Lyeoming county is constituted a sep
arate district, and while its population some
what exceeds that of Cambria county we are
much mistaken if its civil and criminal busi
ness equals it. We do not; however, advocate
enlarging the Mifflin or any of the smaller dis
tricts, It is, no doubt, the experience of those
districts that a Judge may be fully employed
in keeping up the business of his courts so
that no suitor shall be delayed. But if this
be the case, can it be expected that on ;man
Will keep up the business in a district like
ours, with the Penn's. R. R. through its centre,
lateral branches in each county, and the grow
ing cities and multiplied business which follow
in its wake It is; by law, made the particu
lar duty of indges to see that all actions in
their courts shall be reached and belie a fair
opportunity of trial, at least within one year
after they are brought, and neglect of this duty
is made a ground for removal. Every attorney
and every suitor in the 24th Judicial district
knows that this statute is practically a dead
letter, and that the trial and argument lists
are sadly in arrear. No suitor knows whether
his suit will be tried this year, next year, or
left as a legacy to his children, and his estate,
if he have mny, be swallowed up in ruinous
bills of costs for frequent and long continued
attendance at court. It may be said that the
delay is frequently owing to the unreadiness
of parties. if parties,' however, had any rea
sonable certainty of reaching and trying their
causes, they would make it a point to be rea
dy. It is useless, however, to lay the whole
blame upon either courts or parties. Our ob
ject is to call attention to the necessity of such
legislation as will either reduce the size of our
district or increase the number of Judges, and
we believe this to be the proper time to con
sider and canvass the subject, lest raising the
question after the judicial election, which is
soon to take place, should be construed as re
ferring to the presiding Judge who shall then
be elected. Until we have such legislation
there is every reason to fear the evils we have
referred to will grow upon us. The subject
vitally concerns every member of the bar and
the people of the district generally, without
regard to party. Legislative changes of Judi
cial districts, without previous notice or con
sideration by the people affected, are seldom
satisfactory. It is jloped, therefore, the subject
will receive a candid and impartial considera
tion. S. T. B.
Porter Township School Accounts.
MR. EDITOR :—ln the Globe, of the 29th ult.,
is a copy of the statement of school accounts
of Porter township.
The Tammany ring of New York has ac
quired some notoriety in the matter of white
washing accounts, but the gentleman who
manipulated the accounts of Porter township
seem determined to not come out behind in
that line.
In the printed statement, the Dr. side of
the account is made up thus :
School and building duplicate for
1871
Balance from 18711
Total
Now the assessed value of the property in
the township, the multiplier, and State ap
propriation, are matters of record and the
school board ought to have stated them ex
actly, but they have not done so as far as fig
ures will show.
Taxable property,
Deduct unseated lands
Total... ~
The multiplier is ten mills, or one
per cent. which would produce $3.576.98
The number of taxables is 252 and
and an occupation tax of $2 each, le
gal or illegal has been laid, making...
State appropriation, say balance
from last year outght to be about
$BOO, but take their own figures...
Amount accounted for.
Not accounted for
There are several things in the credit side of
the account, which need explanation badly,
but, it is not worth while to talk about them
until we get the foundations established. •
There has been systematic deception if not
downright dishonesty for some years past in
regard to our school accounts by sense of the
officers entrusted with their 'management, and
it behooves those among them who have been
hoodwinked and deceived, to speak out and
lay the responsibility where it belongs.
European Correspondence.
LONDON CITY, August 18th, 1871
DEAR Jouassi :—I mailed my last letter to
you, from this city, on the 12th inst. On Sab
bath, as is customary for every American who
visits London, we went to hear the great Spur
geon. The Tabernacle will seat 6000, and by
the time the hoar fdr service arrived every
seat was full and the aisles packed. He read
the 104th Psalm and expounded part of it, se
lecting as his text the 17th and 18th verses of
the said Psalm. He spoke forty five minutes.
He has a powerful but pleasant voice, a sharp,
piercing eye; his gestures are fine and illus
trations powerful. Mr. Spurgeon is a well pro
portioned man, face full, well developed head,
and I think will weigh about 200 pounds. In
the evening we went to Dr. Brooks' church,
and in the absence of the Doctor we were fa
vored with a fine sermon by the Rev. Mr. Rod-
fast as they do at our largest Theological in
stitutions in America. At Spurgeon's church
we met our friends Dr. Loomis and lady, who
had separated from us some four weeks since
at Londonderry. As it takes the "dingbats,"
and a good many of them, to travel, on the
14th I called at the banking house of Jay Cooke
& Co. and got a supply. Dr. Bell and myself
then did some shopping in the forenoon ; the
balance of the day we spent in visiting the
British Museum, the greatest and largest in
the world. It would take a person a month if
be would minutely examine all there on exhi
tion. It appeared to me that it contains a spe
cimen of every creature Noah bad in his ark,
for there is no animal that lever read or heard
of but is there, besides all of the finny and
amphibious inhabitants of the sea. One pecu
liar point in which it excels all other muse
ums is that it contains a specimen from the
very youngest to the oldest of each and every
kind of animal, besides every imaginable arti
cle used from the days of Noah down to the
present time. In the evening Dr. Bell and
myself took a walk through, what the people
of the Five Points in New York, would call
fashionable streets ; but I have been through
the Five Points in New York and it bears a
very small comparison to these streets. If
New York has her Five Points, London has her
Ten Points. Although they are well lighted
and a good police force on band we witnessed
several fights among the modest females, and
crowds of drunken men and women, young
and old. On Tuesday we hired a carriage and
drove through Hyde Park, St. James Park and
Victoria Park. From there we visited the
Zooloeical Garden which has the largest col
lection of living animais in the world—from
the elephant down to the smallest insect, and
from the great rhinoceros down to the tadpole.
We next visited the International Exhibition
building. This is where.they have their sam
ples of newly manufactured goods on exhibi
tion every season. Attached to this great
building is Prince Albert's Hall, built in the
form of a circle, and will seat 14000 persons.
It is used for concerts, &c. We also took a
look at Buckingham Palace and the monument
of Price Albert. From there we drove to Bunn
Hill Field Cemetery, and examined the graves
and monuments of John Bunyan, author of
Pilgrim's Progress ; John Gill, D. D. and Adam
Clark, D. D., the great Commentators; Isaac
Watts, D. 0., John Rippen,D. D., David De
Foe, the author of Robinson rusoe, and John
Newton, the author of that beautiful hymn,
"In evil long I took delight," &c.
In an adjoining cemetery we visited the grave
of the mother of John and Charles Wesley, and
saw the monument of Rev. John Wesley ; was
in the church be built and in which he held
services at 5 o'clock every morning. Christians
in his day were more energetic and made re
ligion the first object in life. I sat on the arm
chair he occupied in the committee room of
the church. The building is large, but plain,
and is still occupied, the Rev. Rittenhouse
being the pastor.
Wednesday. This morning we visited the
Crystal Palace. This structure is one of the

most remarkable in the world. It owes its
existence to the great Exhibition of 1851 in
Hyde Park. The materials of that building
were sold to a new company and transferred
to an elevated spot near Sydenham, about seven
miles south of London. The original cost of
the first building was $7,500,000; the present
about $10,000,000. The building is 1600 feet
long, 380 feet wide, and at the centre transept
200 feet high. It consists of a nave and three
transepts, all with arched roofs, made of iron
and glass. Within the building consists of a
central nave, having fine flowing marble foun
tains near the two ends, and lined with statues
and plants throughout its whole length. On
each side of the nave are compartments to il
lustrate the sculpture and architecture of dif
ferent ages and countries, such as Greek, Ro
man, Assyrian, Pompeian, Egyptian, etc. Oth
er compartments illustrate certain industrial
groups, etc. Near the centre transept are two
large concert rooms, on a stupendous scale.—J
An orchestra of unparalleled dimensions is 4
constructed hero for festivals, commemorat
tin ntk and musical meetings; this orchestra
will hold 5000 persons; it is in the form of a
half-circle, seats gradually raised, and a large
organ at the top of the circle in the rear. The
park and gardens are extensive, occupying
200 acres; they are beautifully arranged and
contain a fine collection of flowers and plants,
separated by gravel walks. The fountains in
the park are, it is said, the finest in the world.
There are two cascades, each 450 feet long and
100 feet wide, having a fall of 12 feet. Railroad
traiDs rtm everi ten minutes to the Palace
from the city.
On the morning of the 17th we took a walk
through some of the principle streets. Oxford
being the chestnut street of London, next
Regent, then Cheap side. We called at Nel-
48,710
112,572
sons great publishing house, in Paternoster
Row. The Nelsons are the largest book•pub
lishers in the world ; their principal house is
in Edinburg. We purchased some books, and
then visited the London dock yards, the larg
est in the world. It covers over three hundred
acres of land; they have large vaults under
their ware houses, along side of the docks,
where they store away heavy articles, the
vaults are lighted up by gas. The East India
Company have some immense dock yards;
have all been excavated, fitted up, and the
water from the river Thames let in; the water,
it is said, is over thirty feet in depth in these
docks. The best center of observation in the
city is the open spot, between the Royal Ex
change, London Bank and Mansion House,
where more cabs and omnibusses assemble
than at any other spot in the world, and where
one can ramble in any one of the seven differ
ent directions, or streets, sure of meeting with
some illustration of city life. This evening
we went again to hear the Rev. Mr. Spurgeon
preach. His text was Psalms 656, Ist and 2d
verses. Here, in the Tabernacle, we met our
friend, Rev. I. W. Evans, who left us at Glas
gow, and there we parted, with no idea of
meeting again until we would meet in our own
native land, bat we now calculate to return
together in the same steamer.
On Friday morning, the 18th, we took a
ride down the river Thames on a steamer, then
visited the great London Tower. This famous
structure was founded by William the Con
querer, which was afterwards improved by
Charles the II; it has several towers, and oc
cupies 12 acres of ground ; it was here Lady
Jane Grey, Annie Boleyn and many others
were imprisoned and then executed. The
principal objects of curiosity are a collection
of suits of mail on some twenty stuffed figures
of men on stuffed horses, with coat of armor
on men and horses, belonging to various Kings
and Princes; also an armory consisting of
many curious old shields, bows, spontoons,
Spanish instruments of torture, beheading axe,
block, and thumb screws ; also there are neat
ly stored up in several rooms 75000 new Sny
der rifles, standing in racks forming rooms and
passages. Here also is the Jewel House, a
well-guarded room, containing the crowns of
Sir: Edward, Charles the 11, William the IV,
and the new State crown, made for the Coro
nation of Queen Victoria, which cost 200,000
pounds, with gold bracelets, swords of mercy,
and many other valuable jewels. We have
been in London nine days and will remain
over Sunday, and leave on Monday for Liver
pool, and from there to Wales and Ireland,
when you will hear from me again.
Yours, etc., W. B. L.
