LOCAL OPTION
A correspondent from Harrisburg to one
of the leading daily - newspapers ; published
in Pittsburgh, said a few days ago, in a
communicatimi, that the greatest contest
in the Legislature of our State, during the
present session, would be over the repeal of
the law known familiarly as the "Local
Option" act.
Without entering into an argument for
or against temperance, or the propriety, or
impropriety, of the old license system ; we
unhesitating say, that the Local Option act
is the fairest way of settling the temper
ance question. It is in full accord with
our republican system—giving to the ma
jority the right to rule. There cannot be
a plausible ar,:ument made against the ex
pressed voice of the majority of the voters
in a county, settling the question whether
licenses shall or shall not be granted to sell
liquor, as well as to choose their county
officers and vote generally.
One of the reasons urged for the repeal
of the law is that there was not a fair ex
pression of the voice of the people in the
counties that voted down license, because
there was not a full vote polled. For the
same reason the friends of the law have a
right to say that there was not a fair ex
pressioit of the voice of the people in the
counties that voted in favor of license.—
The only fair Lute is that those who vote
have a right to govern, and those who ne
gleet to vote are estopped from complain
ing, because they neglected a plain duty as
well as waived their right to express their
opinions on an important issue.
But another fair proposition, with regard
to those not voting at an election, is the
presumption that they who d 3 not vote are
perfectly satisfied with the result of the
issue. The same rule is established in all
deliberative bodies and societies that those
not voting are considered as having voted
with the majority.
The New Constitution was recently
adopted by 145,150 majority, though at an
eleetion where not more than one half of
the voters went to the polls, yet no one
pretends to say that this was not a
spontaneous out-burst of the popular will.
At the elections in the different counties
on the Local Option issue, the aggregate
vote was much larger than on the vote for
and against the new Constitution. To
prove this, we ask a careful study of a few
figures, arid will prove our allegation by
malting a comparison of the official vote
on Local Option and on the new Consti
tution, in our senatorial district---the 22d,
composed of Centre, Juniata, Huntiagdon
and Mifflin counties—and this comparison
holds good throughout the State. Centre
county cast 3,001 votes against license,
and 1,563 for license, aggregating 4,564;
in the same county, 2,911 votes were cast for
the Constitution, and 1,077 against it,
aggregating 3,988. The majority against
license was 1,438, and for the Constitution
1,834. Juniata county cast 1,451 votes
against license, and 672 for license, ag
gregating 2,123; in the same county 931
votes were cast for the Constitution, and
639 against it, aggregating 1,570. The
majority against license was 779 ; for the
Constitution, 292. Ilubtingdon county
cast 2,429 votes against license, and 1,259
for license, aggregating 3,688; in the same
county, 2,468 votes were east fur the
Constitution and 494 against it, aggrega
ting 2,962. The majority against license
1,170; majority for the Constitution 1,-
974. Mifflin county east 1,623 votes
against license, and 746 for license, ag
gregating 2,369; in the same county 1,599
votes were cast for the Constitution and
376 against it, aggregating 1,975. The
majority against license was 877 ; majori
ty for the Constitution 1,223.
The aggregate vete on the license issue
in the district is 12,744, and the majority
in the district against license is 4,264,
every county giving a majority against the
granting of license. The aggregate vote
on the new constitution, in the district, is
10 ; 495, and the majority for it in the dis
trict is 5,323, every county giVieg a ma
jority for it.
_
This expression of the people on the
Constitution may stand for ages—it must
stand until the people, by vote, change it.
Why then should not the voice of the
people in these counties, stand as the law for
three years on the question of license or no
license, and until the people reverse their de
cision attbe polls Y The counties that voted
- for license will not be injured by permitting
the counties that voted against license try
ing the experiment fur three years. The
friends of temperance, in the counties that
voted for license, are not asking to have
a vote again, until the three years expire,
and we think the friends of the license
system should accept the result of the is
sue in the counties that voted down license
and not ask the Legislature to repeal the
law and thus thwart the expressed will of
the majority of the people. We ask a fair
trial of the law. We voted for three years,
and ask atrial for that length of time.
We don't want to be choked off with
the inadequate trial of only nine months.
It is not true that the law is a failure, It
is being rigorously enforced, and the vio
lators of it are being brought to justice.
Let the people have a fair trial for three
years, and the result will be a gloriou s
one for the cause of temperanoe. The
liquor men have made a combined effort
to make the law appear odious during the
few months it has - been in operation, but
they cannot hold out against the strong
arm of the law ; they must and will suc
cumb.

NEW TORS, January 31, 1874.
THE CHIEF JUSTICESHIP.
The appointment of Morrison R. Waite, of
Ohio, to the Chief Justiceship, meets with fa
vor at the hands of the best citizens of New
York. True, the average New Yorker would
have been better pleased had some man better
known, or rather more widely known, been se
lected ; but as Mr. Waite came to them heavily
endorsed. ' they accepted him gladly. Anybody
hat Cushing. Speaking about "well-known,"
the New Yorker means by that, well-known in
New York. .A man who is well-known in New
York is esteemed by New Yorkers as capable
of doing anything, and as fit for any position
under the stars. I heard an amusing colloquy
between an Ohio man, who had had "themere
local reputation" of Mr. Waite thrown at him
till he was tired of it, by one of these metro
politan gentleman.
"Who would you have had ?" asked the Ohio
man.
"Why, Pierrepout, Of course."
"Oh, my dear sir," said the Ohio man, "lie
wouldn't have answered at all. He is some
thing of a lawyer; but, my dear sir, his is a
mere local reputation. In Xenia, where I live,
he is comparatively unknown. Ile wouldn't
do."
BLACKWELL'S ISLAND.
There is a narrow strip of land, dropped in
to the waters of the East River, and running
upward about two miles; from opposite the
foot of Fiftieth street, which has been brought
Into unusual prominence of late from its hav
ing become the residence of the Ex-Boss, Wm.
Marcy Tweed. Devoted entirely, to the Insti
tutions of the Department of Charities and
Correction, it contains a population of over
seven thousand souls—and such souls! From
Lunacy on one end of the island, through all
the forms of crime andpanperism and disease,
to Small Pox on the other, it is amine of study
for the sociologists : and a place of grave in
terest to all.
The northern point of the island juts into
the boiling tides of Hell-Gate, and bears a fine
light-house, newly constructed by the labor
of the convicts in the Penitentiary. Near this
is a singular structure—Fort Maxsey—the
work of an old man, who for some forty years
has been an inmate of the Lunatic Asylum,
and who, for all this length of time, moved by
the same delusion, has toiled and toiled,
building and re-building, with the belief that
the defence of the city depends upon his works.
Every board washed ashore by the current,
every scrap of ,iron or stone he can pick up,
all the paint and nails which the small sums
given him by visitors can buy, is utilized, and
the product, with its wooden guns, its moat
and drawbridge, and what not, is a wonder of
patient, coherent work and reasoning, from an
insane conviction. Near by are the buildings
of the Lunatic Asylum, with some twelve
hundred inmates; among them many, the pe
culiatity of whose delusions readers them es
pecially Interesting. These delusions are for
the most partpleas.tnt ones—dreams of exalted
power unbounded wealth, matchless beauty.—
You will see in that building a woman of,
perhaps, forty-five, who claims to he the moth
er of God. She was, twenty years ago, the
most prominent of the teachers of New York.
Now, she tells you gravely of her visit to hea
ven last evening, and of what she saw and did
there, and she presents you with diamonds,
which are glass, obtained from the coal-scuttle.
Another believes himself to by the Emperor of
the world, and Is decorated with stars and
garters, cut from his bed-quilt. Ije turns
around three times at each sentence, and tells
you the exact way in which each country of
the globe came into the possession of his fami
ly and himself. Then there is a tall, fine look
ing man, whoperfectly rational on all other
subjects—thinks that lie is our Saviour, and
refuses to water his garden because if his Fath
er, God, Wished it watered he would send rain,
and to interfere would be disobedience on his
part.
Further down the island comes the Work-
House, filled with drunkards, vagrants, street
walkers ; and further still the Alms-
House for the aged, Wiwi, deervid. One de
partment of this institution is the Incurable
Hospital, occupied by old men and women,
paralytics, and sufferers from incurable disease.
More than one has come here to end a life
which has endured already from more than a
century, and all have exceeded the allotted
three score and ten.
Next is the penitentiary, with its 900 cells,
all full, and its distinguished guest, Boss Tweed,
performing resignedly and quietly the menial
duties of hospital-orderly. What an episode
in the political annals of New York I Wm. M.
Tweed, who ruled us all, who gave and took
away, whose statue was to decorate our public
squares, brought up a felon on the very boat
which had so often borne him and his retain
ers of the -Americus Club as distinguished vis
itors to the island, tumbled into the bath-tub
by a man whom he had himself appointed,
shaved, cropped, clothed in stripes and cast
into a cell six feet by four 1 There is a funny
side to this as to everything else. Upon the
card which bangs over Tweed's bed, like those
of the other convicts, his occupation is given
as "statesman,"—an unintended satire.
But I have dwelt too long upon the institu
tions of this island. They are admirably man
aged, and, for s wonder honestly managed.—
Dr. A. E. Macdonald, a man of not more than
thirty-eight, is the chief of staff in the hospi
tals, and to him the credit for the perfection of
the management is entirely due. He is devo
ted to his profession, and both in medicine and
surgery ranks with the ablest and best in the
country. Ha is a man of wonderful attain
ments, which, combined with gust executive
ability, makes him emphatically the man for
the place.
LABOR IN TIIE CITY,
On Friday last another attempt was made by
the foreign agitators to bring about a conflict
between labor and capital. A meeting was to
have been held in the Ciiy Hall Park, but it
was not held, The real laborers were too busy
and the agitators could do nothing without
them. The times are undeniably hard, hut
there is, nevertheless, labor for every man who
will work. And to show the groundlessness
of the movement the Commissioners of Emi
gration have offered to pay the fares of a large
number of the idle, able-bodied immigrants to
parts down South, where labor is in demand.
These foreigners will keep on disturbing
things till one of these fine days they will raise
a dative-American party that will amount to
something. The Communists and lnternation
alists in Europe have grievances; here they
have none ; and the laborers of New York feel
that all these disturbers are making unneces
sary trouble.
THE WEATHER AND !TEETS
in New York is of a style that has never been
seen here before. January 24th was as mild,
warm, and balmy as was ever known in any
May. Windows were universally open, and
in the middle of the day fires were allowed to
go out. It is fortunate that the depression in
labor is accompanied with weather so mild.—
The poor appreciate weather that admits of a
cutting down of expenses. But what a con
dition this warm weather leaves the streets
in 1 New York pays $lOO,OOO per month for
street-cleaning, which is never done, The
average citizen hails the advent of cold weath
er, for the filth is frozen up i but this season,
it is all in a state of fearful liquidity. The
streets run filth in rivers, and. if this weather
should continue, an epidemic of some sort may
be reasonably expected.
E NEW RELIGIOUS MOVEMENT.
The clergymen of the various Evangelical
Churches of the city have determined to begin
in February an united effort in the way of a
revival of religious feeling, in the hope that
will spread all over the country. Daily prayer
meetings are to be held, nightly meetings for
preaching in the churches and all the availa
able halls : street preachers are to be set at
work in the open.air; printed matter is to be
used persistently, and the advertising. columns
of the daily papers arc to lie utilized, to
awaken the masses to a deeper feeling in Re
ligion. The various Christian associations
join in the movement, the object of which is
to erns) out the growing tendency to loose
living, and the wickedness which is becoming
fashionable. It is a singular fact that
THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
has signified its willingness to join in the
movement. The priests of that denomination
admit that some such movement is necessary
to rescue their people from the growing in
fluence of rum and dissipation generally. Disi
potion is the first thing to attack, and the
teachers of all denominations feel the ne
cessity of a movement upon it. The move
ment will, doubtless, be a great success here,
and will of course, spread. The year 1874
will be memorable as a year of great religious
fervor.

THE CORCORAN Ala GALLERY
W. W. Corcoran has made a valuable con
tribution to the attractions of the city iu the
Gallery of Art opened to tha public on the
19th of January. The b thding was erected
previous to the war, and was occupied by the
government during the years of the rebellion.
Er was signed and erected for the purposes
to which it is now devoted, and is admirably
arranged, in all the details of the interior, as
an art depository. The building is very large.
The walls ardeffaced with brisk, with brown
sandstone edgings. it stands ou the north
side of Louisiana Avenue, directly opposite
the War Department. The main central ball
is occupies with paintings, selected at great
cost in Europe, to which Dlr. Corcoran has
added his own private collection, and present
ed the whole, including the building, to the
city. During the two weeks the gallery has
been opened the rooms have been literally
crowded, and the general verdict of those
capable of expressing a correct opinion is that
the collection, as a whole, is of a very high
order. The rooms devoted to statuary have
not yet received the most valuable contribu
tions of art selected, many of them not having
arrived yet from Europe. From to-day the
exhibition will be free to the public each al
ternate day, as a permanent arrangement, and
on the intermediate days an entrance charge
of twenty-five cents will be charged.
THE “LOCBE HOME
In this zumiection it is due to the liberality
of Mr. Corcoran to say that his public spirit is
not confined to the Art Gallery, Since the
close of the war he has erected a magnificent
and furnished it throughout as a
"Home" for aged women. It is in successful
operation and is nearly filled. It is named
after his deceased daughter.
DOINGS IN CONGRESS.
The Louisiana question has occupied a por
tion of the time ; but large attention is given
to the leading questions of finance and re
trenchment. Among the bills signed during
the week were, the act providing for the busts
of the late Chief Justices Boger Brooke Taney
and of Salmon Portland Chase, to be placed
in the Supreme Court Room of the United
States. Also the act to abolish the office of
Deputy Conlimissioner of Internal Revenue ;
and an act authorizing coinage to he executed
at the mints of the United States for foreign
countries.
THE EFFECTS OF A COMMA.
The importance of careful Congressional
punctuation was strongly illustrated yesterday
at the meeting of the Ways and Means Com
mittee, where it was shown that a comma in
one place was worth $2,000 000. in the tariff
bill which went into effect August 1, 1872, it
will be remembered that the free list was ex
tended by the addition of several hundred ar
ticles. Among the number added was "fruit
plants, tropical and semi-tropical," for the
purpose of propagation and cultivation. In
engrossing the bill, or in the process of copy
frig it for official printing, a comma was insert
ed after "fruit," and all fruit was thereby plac
ed upon the free list. The ~ustom officers,
however, not noticing the change, continued
to collect duties on fruit until the error was
discovered. The Ways and Means CoMmittee
save agreed to report a bill to remove the
comma, in 4cpordance with the intent of the
law of 1872. The amount of tux illegally col
lected is not far from $2,000,000. '
TIM NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL COMMITTEE.
One of the features of the week in Washing
ton was a very full convention of School Su•
perintendents and educators from all parts of
the country. The meetings of the convention
were held in the hail of the District Legisla
ture, and, as spectators, their deliberations
were listened to by the President and other
distinguished gentlemen. On the first day af
ter organization, the members of the conven
tion took a recess and proceeded in a body to
the Executive Mansion, assembling in the East
Room. The !'resident soon afterward made
his appearance, when Gen. Eaton introduced
Mr. J. U. Wilford, of Virginia, president of the
convention, who said the members of the eon
vention had called to pay him their respects,
and to assure him of their support in all meas
ures which might tend to promote the interests
of educatiqn to the United States.
-. The President said :—FI am very glad to
meet the gentlemen who are engaged in so
worthy a cause as that of education, and one
upon which depends so intimately the stability
of republics particularly. I believe that repub
lic; can only stand upon the education and
enlightenment of the people,"
The members of the convention were then
individually introduced to the President by
Gen,
Eaton, Several of them expressed their
than''s to the Presidentfor the attention which
he gave the subject of education in his last
annual message, and said they regarded that
as an evidence of the deep interest ho takes in
the promotion of education among the people.
Among the prominent objects of the Con
vention was an offort to secure greater uni
formity in the systems of education through
out the country ; reach the youth not yet un
der instruction, and to giro mere attention to
securing correct statistical information upon
the condition, &c., of the schools throughout
the country, to be published and distributed
from year to year by the Bureau of Education
at Washington. The meeting together of so
many school superintendents, professors and
teachers cannot be otherwise than productive
of excellent results.
SOCIETY, &C.
The fashionablcs are now In the zenith of
the gay season in Washington. The mild
temperature of the weather is favorable, which.
together with a clear sky and moonlight
nights, tends largely to increase the attendance
at receptions, sociables, evening parties, &e.

VIE ELECTION BILL A LAW AT LAST.
The election bill has passed both branches
of the Legislature and is now in the hands of
the Governor, who has probably signed it by
this time, unless the searching eye of Attor•
ney General gimmick has discovered some
thing of an unconstitutional character in it.
A variety of amendments were made to the
bill by the House; the numerical order of its
sections was transposed and a number of new
sections added. The House amendments were
concurred in by the Senate in tote. Amend
meuts were contemplated by the Senate, but
the necessity of the immediate passage of the
bill prevented them fnan being presented.—
poring the consideration of this bill in the
House a number of lively fights ensued. One
offered by Mr. Wolfe, of Holm', modifying the
provisions of the bill in respect to the power
of the minority Insp.ctor, was bitterly oppo
sed by Mr. Brockway, (Dent.,) who indulged
to some extent in arguraestunt ad hominem, in
sinuating that gentlemen members of the Up
per House were present upon the floor manip
ulating the bill. Mr. Wolfe indignantly refu
ted these insinuations. This little spat was
sufficient to draw party lines very close, and
resulted in the adoption of the amendment.—
Mr. Brockway thee assumed the role of martyr
and moved to amend by striking out the word
"minority" wherever it appeared in the bill.
Had the Republican members of the House
seen fit to take him et his word and adopt his
amebdinent ; Mr. Brockway might have been
placed in no very enviable position before his
party. This is the first bill which has passed
the Legislature under the new constitution.
THE SENATE.
The Senate Committee is hard at work on
Rutan's Apportionment bill. A strong feeling
is manifested in favor of dividing Philadelphia
into districts electing three or four represen
tatives. The simple district plan does not
meet with favor. The apportionment of Phil
adelphia will not be determined until after
the February election.
FIXATION OF COLLEGES.
The question of taxing colleges is now
pending in the Senate Finance Committee.—
The new constitution prohibits the Legisla
ture front exempting any but charitable insti
tutions from taxation. Senator Graham pre
sented a memorial from professors and officers
of colleges, holding charters from this Com
monwealth, holding that institutions of this
character are charitable and should therefore
be eictript from taxation. A delegation from
the various colleges in the State will appear
before the Finance Committee next week,
' when, in all probability, the question, wheth
er colleges arc paupers or not, will be decided.
SALARIES OF JUDGES.
A delegation of Philadelpoia lawyers ap
peared before a joint committee of the two
Houses., on last Wednesday, and the question
of the salaries of 'Supreme and Common Pleas
judges was discussed. The delegation was of
the opinion that $lO,OOO a year would be a
proper salary for Supreme Judge. The gen
eral committee; of the House, on Constitu
tional Reform, discussed the same question on
Thursday night, and fixed the salary of Justice
of the Supreme Court at $9,000 ; of the Asso
ciate Judges at 58,000; of tile Common eleas
of Philadelphia and Allegheny at 57,000, and
of other Common Pleas Judges in the State at
$9,000.
PIETRO.
TAXDIG COIIPOUATIONS,
Mr. Myer has introduced into the house a
bill regulating taxation on corporations. The
bill requires that all corporations doing busi
ness in the State shall be regulated in the Au
ditor General's office. They are bound to ap
prise that officer of their place of business,
capital paid in, and names of officers, under a
penalty of $5OO flue. • Taxation of this kind
pays the State yearlya large revenue, amount
ing last year to nearly a million and a half of
dollars.
SECRETARY OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS AND LIECTEN.
Mr. Netemyer has offered in the House, bills
providing for the election, terms of office and
salaries of a Lieutenant Governor and a Sec
retary of Internal Affairs. According to the
provisions of the bill, these officers ate to be
elected every lour years, and are to receive a
salary of $3,000 per year.
CHANGE OF VENti 0 CRIMINAL CASES.
Mr. Little, of Wyoming, has read in place
a bill giving the Courts of this Commonwealth
power to change the venue in criminal cases
where popular excitement renders a fair trial
inipossible, and in. civil cases for the same
cause, and where the subject matter of con
troversy is situate in another county, and the
partic;s and witnesses, or a majority of them,

CENTAUR LINIMENT.
There is no pain, which the Centaur Liniments will nut
relieve, no swelling they will not subdue, and no tummies%
which they will rot cure. This is strong language, but it
its true. They kave produced more cpree of rheumatism,
neuralgia, luck jaw, palsy, sprains, swelliag, caked breasts,
scalds, burns, salt-rheum, ear-ache, &e., open the human
frame, and °retrains, spavin, galls, &c., upon the animal.
In one year than have all other pretended remedies niece
the world began. They are counter-irritant, all healing
pain reliever. Cripples throw away their crutch., the
lame walk, posionous bites are rendered harmless and the
wounded are healed without a scar. The recipe is pub
lishe.i monad each bottle. They sell as no article ever be
fore sold, and they sell bemoom they do just what they pre
tend to sic. Thora who now suffer from rhomattem, pain
or swelling deserve to suffer if they will not one Centaur
Liniment, white wrapper. More than 1000 certificates of
remarkable cu - es, including frozen limbs, chronic rhea.,

We will mind a circular containing oertlifleates, the recipe

Wanted to be Heard Front.
If anybody has used the thorough and scientific course
of treatment recommended by the proprietor of Dr. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy for the cure of Catarrh and has not wen
perfectly cured, the proprietor, Dr. R. T. Pierce, would
like to hear from that person, and by addressing him In
the World's Dbpensary, Buffalo, N. Y., such person, if
there be one, will here of something to his or her advan
tage, as the Doctor is in earnest when he offers $5OO re
ward fora case of Catarrh which be cannot cure, and is
perfect!y able to pay it if he fails in a single ease, as any
one may ascertain upon inquiry. The thorough course
of treatment refered to and recommended by Dr. Pierce
consists in the use of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy with Dr .
Pierce 's Nasal Douche which is the only moans by which
the fluid can be carried high up and applied to all parts of
the nasal passages and the chamber. connected therewith
in which ulcers exist and from which the discharge pro-
ceeds. In addition to this thorough application of the
Remedy, which should always be used warm, Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery should be taken earnestly as
constitutional treatment, without which few cases can
be cured as the disease is always constitutional and mast
be treated accordingly. This treatment has no unpleasant
features about it, and has the advantage of never driving
the disease to the lungs as there IS danger of doing by
the it.e of strong, irritating snuffs or poisonous solutions.
