Republican State Convention HEADQUARTERS REPUBLICAN STATE I COMMITTEE, HARRISBUIDI, February 1,1876. n pursuance of a resolution of the Repnb lican State Committee, adopted at a meeting held in Harrisburg this day, a Republican State Convention, to be composed of delegates from each Senatorial and Representative dis trict, to the number to which such district is entitled in the Legislature, is hereby called to meet in the city of Harrisburg, at twelve o'clock, noon, on Wednesday, March 29, 1876, for the purpose of nominating an Electoral ticket and of electing Senatorial and Repre sentative delegates to represent the State in the Republican National Convention, to be held at Cincinnati, Ohio, on the 14th day of June, 1876. By Order of the Committe, HENRY M. HOYT, Chairman. A. WILSON NORRIS, Secretary. THE Rev. J. 1 4 Dick, for twenty-five years past pastor of the United Presbyte rian chard) in Kittanning has resigned. J. SIMPSON AFRICA, EsQ., Chief Clerk in the office of the Secretary of Internal Affairs, will please accept oar thanks for a copy of the Annual Report of the Secre- tary of that office, for 1875. WE notice that our friend, Dr. John W. Johnston, of Springfield township, Blair county, has been appointel a Representa tive Delegate to the Republican State Convention which assembles in barrisburg on the 29th in,st. The Doctor is a sub stantial and uncompromising Republican, and we welcome him into the arena of State polities. TUE Teuiperance Atilonre, rubli..l,ed at Bellefonte, says: "A recent Editorial Convention at Harris burg passed a resolution 'recommending a more liberal license law.' The beer and whis key interest are after every agency they can buy to aid them in their shameful work. Very many of our newspapers comply with their demands beeamseit pays—and these rum bought papers are the ones that tell us to 'keep tem perance out of polities.' They endeavor to practice what they preach ; they do not take any in theirs." We read the above with a broad grin and asked the question, "What had the Editorial Convention to do with a 'liberal license law?'" We attended the meeting in question and remember nothing of the sort but there was a resolution recom mending a more liberal Libel Law. Is it possible that the Rev. Babcock set up a man of straw ? THE editor of the Globe, smarting keen ly under the lashing given him by an an onymous correspondent, in the last JOUR NAL, in a cringing, creaking, groaning, milk and•water article, as flat as stale beer, and as shilly-shally, namby-pamby as he is him- self, attempts, as usual, to hold us respon• sibla for it. If we have anything to say of him or to him, we are not under the necessity . of resorting to an anonymous cot.- respondence. We know the risk we run in dealing with that kind of animal, but we meet it without cringing, crawling, or mew ing like a sick kitten, taking refuge behind somebody's skirts. We feel, sometimes, like sitting down and drawing this fellow's photograph to life, fur mere amusement. Such a libel on hono • rable humanity the world has never before witnessed, and those who have seen this lick- spittle feel that no compensation could induce them to look upon his like again.

IT is with sadness that we announce, in another column, the death of Hon Isaiah 11. Rawlins, member of the Legislature from Blair county. We have been inti mately acquainted with him since the.close of the war. Ile was a man of undoubted abilities. forced himself up from a farmer's boy to the proud position of a representative of the county of Blair in the Legislature. From the farm heshoved the plane and taught school, and the war breaking out he became a soldier, not a mere holiday soldier, but one who was willing to sacrifice all that his country might live. Brave to rashness he was severely wounded at the assault upon Fort Wagner, near Charleston, South Carolina. it is related of him by his comrades, that after his wound on this occasion, be was ordered to the rear, and while retiring he found a New York regiment that had been ordered to support the 76th Pennsylvania, in its assault upon the works, lying sheltered tinder cover of a small eminence. Rawlins went to the color bearer and took the regimenta l tag la carried it to the summit of the eminence and stuck the flag staff into the earth, and then, with an imprecation, said, "if you want your come and g et it !" His wound was a reoniag sore for yeara, aed we presume had much,to do with iris early death. lie . hatrii• intilitairy air and carriage that did not prepossess the aver- . age roan favorably, but it was this that bore him up, that gave him confidence and accounted fee bit success. He was gen erous, hospitable, noble, and death-has not touched a more shining mark, in this re gion, for years. THE PRINTING BILL. The editor of the Local Arms, in reply to a paragraph clipped from the Lewistown Gaztlic, assumes a position towards the General Bill regulating legal advertising. E DITOR now before the Legislature, that is utterly untenable. We do net think that. Mr. Lindsay, who is a very honorable gentle man, does so simply because his interests dictate such a colmes but we attribute it to the feet that Ike has not given the sub ject of legal advertising that close and scrutinizing attention which is necessary 1! a• a thorough compek.hission of the sub ject. In other words he has only viewed the subject from a newspaper office and not from a legal standpoint. The Bill in question is drawn from this latt3r stand , point and not the former. It is drawn immediately in the interest of the tax ' payer and the interested party, and not specially for the newspaper press, as our friend seems to think it is. This is thegreat mistake in his premises. A very natural mistake, however, for a newspaper man to make. We will now proceed to elucidate the matter, and, to begin, we will ask, What is the object of advertising? To which we answer, to make public certain transactions in which the public are im mediately concerned, or a particular por tion of it, which, if not made public, may work harm to those immediately interested Publicity is given to guard against the frauds and impositions which might be practiced if secrecy were observed It is one of the wisest provisions of our wise and beneficent laws. It is the only safe guard of the public and the party in in terest. Take away the legal advertise ment and frauds and impositions wthout number would be perpetrated. Take away the legal notice and no man would he safe in his person or his property for a single hour. If this matter is of so much importance, should not the Legislature throw around it the most carefully worded provisions? Should not, the Legislature autluirize the greatest possible publicity commensurate with the interests'involved ? Most assuredly it should. How is this to be done at the least expense to those con cerned? This has been the question which has agitated the minds of legislators for years. In the large cities Legal Jour. nabs have been established, in which all legal notices are directed to:be published, and the party interested has only to sub scribe fur the Legal Journal and 'all the notices in which he is interested come im mediately under his eye, but it is only too apparent that this cannat be done in the several counties of the Commonwealth, where, as our ; friend plays, "newspaper offices spring up like blacksmith shops, grocery stores, etc.," and where almost every village, of a hundrel inhabitants, has its local paper. This difficulty has presented itself audit has been'a formi dable one. Take Huntingdon county for as illustration : Here there are nine pa pers. It would be utterly' impolitic, for pecuniary reasons, fur parties in interest to advertise in all these papers, and yet by missing one of them the party most con cern3d might suffer severe 10-s or great injustice. In fact we have known parties, whose duty it was to give legal notice, and whose interest it was not to give great publicity, to take advantage of this multi tude of newspapers to give notice in those having the remotest circulation from the Point where interest was centered and yet they complied =with the present law. In fact this has become a crying evil, and something must be done to remedy it It was this that suggested the form of the present bill. 'The bill in question provides that two newspapers, printed in - the English lan guage, one of each party having the high est bone fide eirculation,in the County in which printed and published, shall be the official medium through which to commu nicate all legal not&oes now'publishable by law. It is a well.settied fact that County political newspapers have a larger local circulation than any other. This act says to the Democrat and the Republican you j Can get all the legal advertisements, in which you, are interested, in your leading paper without subjecting you to the expense ofsubscribieg for 4 halfdozen or ten papers, one half of which do not agree with your political views, to enable you to get the legsal information in which you are in-. terested. It fixes the - charges at' such rates as the community has heretofore paid and provides against imposition or ex torsion, and it does not prevent the pub lication in as many other papers as, the officer or party in interest feel warranted in publishing it. It is, in our estimation, . the fairest and best bill, from a legal stand point, that has ever been submitted to the legislature. It is in harmony with the provisions of the New Constitution and it does equal and exact justice to all parties concerned. It may here and there inter fere with a newspaper, but newspapers cannot stand in the way of the best in terests of the community. Rival news papers may feel aggrieved, bat their in terests are as nothing :compared with the interests of the public at large. Consolid ation is an easy way out the trouble and a salvo which we have no hesitation in recommending. And now a few words in regard to the l closing suggestion of the News : It must be apparent to any one Oat the spirit of the law would be violated by let ting the County Printing, out to the lowest bidder. The papers having the least cir culation could afford to bid less than any other and instead of giving a general cir eulation and the greatest publicity it would be remote. The true intent of the spirit of the law is to give the greatest possible publicity and not the least. THERE are ou!y two features in the laws of our State. regulating publications for defamatory words, which toip,ht be im proved, (and wq are not so sure that one of them can be wade beiter,) we mean dragging a defendant to any pia or the State for trial, where any one of the paper cosit4oing the alleged libel, may have been eiretrlate4, and more strictly defining what is due dilligcuee as as to take the defvidant out of the catagoryof npgligence. In every other respect the present eon stitution, in our estimation, is entirely - broad enough. There has not been a trial • for libel since its adoption in which the door has not been thrown wide open where there was any excuse for the libel what ever. Confine the prosecution to the county in which the paper is located and we are content. THE acquittal of Gen. Babcock does not please our Democratic friends greatly. They expected to make some fine political capital out of the trial but his acquittal knocks the talk out of them. Our New York Letter.

NEW YORK, March Ist, 1876. 110 W THE POOR LIVE A friend lately had a delinquent wash erwoman, and nut finding excuses as satis factory as shirts, set out with me to hunt her up, not more out of curiosity to find the clothes, than to see for ourselves how the poor live. Her address was a narrow street of a dozen blocks, in the heart of down town, and there was not a decent building in it. The pavements are strewn with garbage, and the houses stained with slops thrown from the windows. The wo man was in a crazy old wooden tenement in the rear ofthe one fronting on the street, and in consequence had just as little air and light as it would do to live. We found her in a room ten by twelve, with a bed, washtub, cook stove and boiler in the cor ners, leaving just room to worm one's way between them. her grown son and a lit tle girl sat on the bed; there was no chair, and a string of wet clothes hung above their heads. For this room and a clo , et for the boy to sleep in, she paid eight dol lars a month rent, her whole means of liv ing being her son's wages as boy in a gro cery store, at four dollars a week, the wash ing from one family, anti a triple of help from her daughter, who got two dollars and fifty cents a week as waitress in an up town house. Instead of' making way with the clothes as we supposed, we found her husband had been sick with fever, and the doctorhad forbidden her to send any clothes out of the house, the drains w.'re out of or der, and the stench in the entries was FO sickening that we were not surprised to hear that there was diptheria and small pox in the block. Thc man had been sent to the hospital to die, anii tle bowie clean ed and di4infected by the board of health, but it could hardly be kept clean by mortal hands, and never healthy. Comfort ! These people never expect that. All they can hope for is the barest possible life—so bare and naked that a full meal is something to be dated from, and the possession of a dol lar a matter to be remembered. And the end of that life ? The hospital first, and Potter's field afterward. That's all there is about it. THE PROFITS OF TENEMENT PROPERTY. Passing a block ,f' ruinous buildings on a street by the river, I asked the owner why he didn't tear it down, and build something decent. He told me, laughing tli notion to scorn, that such property was the most profitable in the dry. It c•isr, nothing to keep it in repair, for he nevs•r made any repairs, and at was divi , led into lodgings, twelve feet square, or, a few, twelve by eighteen, and they were always full. There was no loss of rent, for the money was al ways demanded in advance, and if by the next month the tenant was unable to pay, the agent bundled him out in the street, and there were always plenty to take his place. There are families on Fifth avenue who have incomes of sixty thousand, from just such property, and they want no bet ter. What a horrid contrast between the fastidious member of a fashionable club who rolls down to his office in his coupe, of a morning, front his luxuri,ms, picture hung homy in the bright, wide uptown street, and the fever•scented dens where poverty stricken wretches toil their lives away, to earn the price of his luiuties. When will Moody and Sankey labor, that men's hearts may be softened toward their kind and take for their text, "Your gold is corrupted, and your riches moth eaten." JAY GOULD AND THE TRIBUNE. That Jay Gould did get a controlling interest in the New York Tribune, every body believes, and that he is sick of his bargain everybody also believes. Jay Gould is a tremendous man, but he is not alto gether infalliable. He wanted a big paper in his control that he might manipulate the stock market, and he took advantage of the trouble that followed the death of Mr. Greely to gobble the Tribune, or enough of its stock to have an influence in it, the idea that he could have this stock written up, or that one written down, and thereby put money in his purse. Bdt the thing didn't work. Mr. Reid did not yield to the behests of the stock-king, and the Tribune did not become a mere instrument in his hands. And now Gould wants to get out. The speculation did not pay as well as Wall Street—in fact it did not pay at all, fir him. He did not want news paper stock unless be could use it to help other stocks, and when the Tribune would not do that, his interest was at an end- Therefore Reid gets rid of this stench, and the Tribune, freed from the odium that at taches to the very name of Gould, will get back its place in the hearts of tho people. The Tribune was a great power, and now that it is to be freed from the reputation of Gouldism, it will be again. RELIGIOUS The Moody and Sankey meetings are no more a success in New York than they were in Brooklyn. The numbers in atteu dance are as great as ever, but the effect produced is nothing, And the really re ligious people of the city—those who were instrumental in bringing them here, are repenting of their bargain. Moody is a coarse man, though earnest and honest— and his method repel rather than attract. Ile has a trick of familiarity when ha speaks of the Deity that shocks the sense of any devout person, and he has a bully ing, swaggering way with him that is any thing but pleasant. Ile is very short, crusty and dictatorial in his dealings with the clergy, lacking entirely that meekness, that is so important an item in the Chris tian make-up. Sankey's singing is delight ful fot a time, but like everything that lacks the prineiples of true art, it gets fearfully tiresome in a littla syhile.. It is lamentable fact that ninety-nine hundredths of the people in attendance are religious people-. Abe sinners stay carefully away and never go. • The revivals in other parts or the city are more successful. Dwyer and Collier preaching in the slums of \Tandem Street with marked success, for they have gone where the sinners are, and forced them to listen to the gospel. Several of the large churches seeing that Moody and Sankey must fail to produce any effect, are ar ranging for revivals in the regular way in their own churches, where they can work more directly upon the people, and where families cuu be successfully used. The winter is gout; but the religious ele ment does not do:.p,iir of waking some headway yet. At all events they wean to try it. BUSINESS During tile week has been exceptionally dull, and it will doubtless gay so till the spring opens. The merchants are puzahad to know why it is so. One jobber who is doing nothing, showed me a letter from a ban4er in a western city complaining that the institution had 0400,000 lying idle and doing nothing, and he said that that was the case everywhere. So it can't be the scarcity of money that makes the dull ness of trade. The fdet rule has con fidence in an)thinz. notliitez is being engaged in.

The beaux, it is said, finuid the dress so becoming that they put it off with a sigh of regret that they could not wear knee, breeches to show a handsome leg, or the ruffles which set offa soft aristocratic hand amazingly. There were dresses worn at the Academy, which figured at Lady Wash ington's evenings, eighty years before, and one fortunate lady. it is said wore a flounce which was part of the matchless lace order eta for Maria Louisa, by Napoleon himself, who was a connoisseur. It was not gener ally surmised, however, that the flounce in question, was part of the Empress' bed hanging though it was a remarkably fine piece of Mechlin. The Academy was densely packed, and the receipts must have been most gratifying for the charity in aid of which the reception was designed, for fashionable New York views its gayest fes tivities with the sanction of charity. Twen ty thousand tickets were sold at five dollars ' apiece, and the r-sult, was, that hundreds of holders of tickets on seeing the crowd. went home, without trying to enter, it was worth the crush, to see the minute danced by two dozen couples, trained for the (Rea sion by a fashionable Fifth Avenue dan cing master.

The courtly three hundred filed off, through a covered way, built across the street for the evening, to the tea tables in Irving Hall, where it was the thing to regale one's partner with tea at two dollars a cup, and buy the cup and saucer, fac similes of Martha Washington's own tea sot, for another dollar. PIETRO. Our Harrisburg Letter. Flensiesura, Feb. 25, 1870, The "smelling committee," in campaign logic. appointed by the Democratic House of last winter to investigate the State Treasury, and who told all they knew, have seen fit, at this late day, to embellish the pages of the Record with the facts they gave the public in the shape of a campaign document last summer. They state that their subpoenas have been disre garded and that the Cirmer State Treasu rer would not appear They advise no particular line of amio;l, but lay the whole matter before the llotbe. The minority Report will be presented in a few days.— Mr. Mackey was the ooly one who appear ed before the committee, and although they were afforded every opportunity to look into the State Treasury affairs he dc. nied their authority. as well he might, un der the new Constitution. The Democrats held a caucus on last Tuesday evening whic!i lasted four hours. The Patriot stated that unanimity prevail ed. hut the truth is there was much dis sension. The inirwrity, so small that if united to the Republicans in favor et* an early adjournmeo. would not carry, fought long and well. Committees were appoint ed to dispatch the busities of the !louse acd the caucus adjourned to next Tuesday evening. _ _ No business, other than reading Wash ington's Farewell Address, was done last Tuesday.

Providing that costs in ea ses of felony may be put upon the parties as in misdemeanors. Authorizing county commissioners to contract for the purchase, use or control of bridges over creeks. riv ers, etc., providing that the cost shall not be over $lO,OOO. Instructing the Attor ney General to proceed against the State Line and Juniata Railroad by writ of quo warranto to forfeit. their franchises. Among the bills introduced and being considered are the following : Authori zing courts to decree private sales of real estate made by religious societies. Requi ring election proclamations to be publish ed in an abbreviated form. That members of beneficial societies shall not be individ ually liable for dues and benefits, but that the same shail only be payable out of treasury lodge.. To authorize chattel mortgages upon lumber, iron and coal in bulk. Also an net to render valid any ir regularity in sealing up of jury wheels, etc., preventing challenges to the array of jurors. Also to provide for a uniform practice in the several courts of the State to be laid down by the Supreme Court, ILOUSE PROCEEPINOS, The committee to investigate the West ern Reform School have finished their la bors and recommend a clean sweep of the present management. Dr. Curwen of the Insane Asylum, at Harrisburg, has report ed charges of bad management made by the Board of Public Charities, in a com munication to the legislature, but it will hardly save the thorough investigation de manded of that institution. The House is getting ready to push things in a lively manner, and with about 375 bills reported it is very necessary that they should do so p r confess their inability to legislate and adjourn. An attempt was made to call up the ever-prnsest bnotp bill, out of its order, but failed. Among the bills passed finally by this body were the following: An act provi ding for the appointment of a special de tective in the several counties of the State in cases of crimes. An act empowering councils to prescribe by ordinance the sal aries of =pre treasurers, controllers, etc., to be paid them instead of fees. An act requiring the publication of accokmis and financial statements of school boards. The following are among the bills in troduced and under consideration in this body : An act providing that agricultural lands laying in boroughs shall not be sub• Jed to borough taxes. Empowering courts of quarter sessions to appoint additional supervisors. Authorizing building associ ations to co operate with each other in mutually insuring property of their mew hers winst fire. An act ibr the protec Lion of farmers sl i d owners of cattle along lines of railroad. The caucus on Tuesday evening retwed to consider anything of a definite charac• ter relative to adjournment. B.
