The, Huntingdon Journal. J. Z. DUBBORROW, - HUNTINGDON, PENN'A. _ 4 _ - MARCH 16, 1577 FRIDAY, - Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. THE EXEMPTION NOTE. The following conituunicatiall wan handed to us, last week, by a Fanner"' friend, who, we suppose, desires to draw us out on this subject, more fully than we have heretofore found time to discuss the point,' involved: Ma. Eynon—hear Sir :—I one you, and also the editor of the Local News, are terribly down on those Exemption Notes, which I believe you sell by the dozen about as cheap as anybody. Now will you. please tel uc, fur our information, when, or how, will you benefit the poorer class, by legis lating them out of existence Are you not aware that a very large proportion, If not a majority, of the population, never ex pect to be worth over three hundred dollars, and many who are, can bide all their personal effects, behind that law, and own large farms, and halite off honest creditors for years? . And, further, would you not be taking away the poor man's credit entirely, on which that class, al ways depend ? I care not how soon you introduce A cash system, there is a very large class of our citisens, will never have cash on hand, to pay for any thing, except it Islay be tobacco and whisky. Now, we farmers, you know, work hard for our grain and meat, &c., on which all must exist, and the man that wants to buy it, or anything else, and will not give us his Exemption note, we know at once, has no intention to pay. Now we are not bound to give away our produce, without at least some prospect of the pay some time in the future, and we do hold, (while we protest against asking the pound of flesh) that it is offering a premium for dishonesty. We would regard it a waste of paper to take a Note of most any man, who gives a Note, if he would refuse to sign an Exemption note. But, we see a case of desertion cited in the Lo cal Newt, charged to a couple of those notes, now tell us how long ago that same case, might have been compelled by hunger, had it nut been for those good Samaritans who took those Notes, and drove the wolf from the door? And if you legis late Exemption Notes out of use, and rob the poor of all the credit they have, perhaps near cue-half of all the father's in the country, may he looking for their married daughters and a few babies back, to see if daddy has anything to eat. Did you ev er hear of a man giving an E'temp lon Note, but thought. it to his advantage and would pledge his wife if asked of him, but leave the tame tote for collection after ten or fifteen years, witaolt ever receiving the interest and the first question asked by deft., is, is it exemption paper? Since writing the above, we see over the signa ture of "Justice," a piece headed, "It is hard tube rich." Well, now, we do not know anything about that experimentally, we do know it is hard to get rich, and will be much harder to get so, and keep so, than ever, if those who do make an honest ef fort to get something ahead in the world, are bound to sell, to all who may want, or need, all over and above what they need, to eat and wear, without se curity that will take the hair off. We are as much opposed to ceiling people out, and sacrificing property, these times, as "Justice," or any one else. It is decidedly wrong, where it can be avoided, but we have no doubt if you were to go to "Justice," to-day, tired as he is of being rich, and buy a lot of his wheat, meat, Ice., and if you do not give him the cash, which you know nobody has now, he will take nothing less, than the tightest kind of exemption paper, or demand such bail, as no poor man can get. We still think there are two sides to this Exemption Note ques tion. In most cases it is a useless waste of paper and ink to take any other kind, and in many cases they are useless, too, now-adays. There is a dread ful hue and cry set up about merciless creditors but not a word about merciless debtors. FARMER The author of the above communication deserves credit for presenting the subject in the best light from his standpoint But it is an extremely selfish view, with out much of the usual shrewdness which characterizes even selfishness. Individual selfishness very seldom saves at the bung to lose at the spigot. It means to save at both places, but if there must be loss, it usually submits to the least possible waste. The universal practice of taking Exemp tion Notes is the reverse of this. While it saves at the bung it opens the spigot wide and permits all the valuable fluid to escape. How so, you ask ? We will ex plain : If A, a poor man, with less • than $3OO worth of property, can get credit from "Farmer" on the strength of it, by giving an Exemption Note, he can, in all probability, get credit from "Farmer's" neighbors, on similar conditions, fir five or six times the amoun tof "Farmer's" little claim. And when A's financial condition is questioned he is found to be hopelessly insolvent. "Farmer" runs immediately to the record and enters up his under-shirt bill, issues an execution, seizes all A's property, sells it at a terrible sacrifice, and is obliged to purchase the greater portion of the scanty furniture himself to get out. A's wife and little ones are turned out to starvation and wretchedness, or some one's • charity, very likely the other creditors, must come to their relief. Novi what has been gained by "Farmer's" Exemption Note ? True be has made his money, but in doing so he has outraged every sense of decency, brought the censure of his neigh bors down upon his head and beggared a family ! The neighbors, who had been in duced to trust A on the same security, lost all their money The precipitate action of "Farmer" caused universal alarm and uneasiness, and every neighbor who held a Judgment Exemption Note, following the example of "Farmer," went to the ✓ecord and entered up and issued upon their claims, the consequence was that B, C and D failed successively, each heavily indebted to "Farmer," a sporadic panic was thus inaugurated, and the price of everything in the neighborhood declined frost thirty-three to fifty per cent. If this is not saving at the bung and losing at the spigot, with a vengeance, then we know nothing about it. This is the universal experience with Judgment Exemption Notes. Now, then, when depressions are produced and brought about by this agency, poor men are thrown out of employment, sad become objects of charity. Would it not be better, a thousand times, to legislate these under-shirt notes out of existence and prevent sporadic panics ? Would poor won not be benefitted by such wise legisla tion I' And would not rich men be like wise benefitted ? Untjuestionably they would. We are certainly aware that a large. portion of our population never ex pect to be worth over $3OO. They live from hand to mouth. They pay cash or they exchange labor for products. They are obliged to do this. They do not ex pect credit and will not ask it unless they presume upon the weakness of some known philanthropist. If a man is honest he will pay; if he dishonest, a waiver of Exemp tion Note will not make him otherwise.— The man who will give a waiver of Ex emption Note for an honest debt will, very likely, to save his wife and children from being made beggars, give one for a dishonest claim. Waiver of Exemption Notes are no ad: vantage to a poor man in giving him credit, but on the other hand a positive injury. No an starts io life with the expectation that his neighbor will, without recompense. support him. Ile expects, and the emu triunity experts, that he will earn his. tors living and that of any family 'which may spring up around l'im. If be is diligent, industrious. and careful he soon accumulates property. By Judgment Exemptiorr Notes he can pledge the value ~r this property to each of a 4, n persons Sneh a priv ilege is an abuse of every principle el' Political Economy. Nevertheless he can do so; there is naught to hinder him.— This causes the creditor to suspect even an honest man. For this reason we argue that this class of seeurity is the merest humbug in the world and a positive injury to the poor man. We have discussed this question, so far, from a merely business standpoint. There is another side to the matter. Every State in the Union, as far as we know, has ex empted a certain amount of property from leavy and sale upon execution. This has been done on the ground that no good government can permit its citizens to be beggared. Some States exempt from two to five thousand dollars worth of property. The creditor knows the law and governs himself accordingly. He knows whether the man who asks for credit is honest or not. If' he is, he credits him ; if' not, be declines. If he is foolish enough to credit him in the face of bad filth, he has only himself to blame if he loses. The plea that a family is starving is a plea for charity. It is not charity to give a poor family grain and meat, &e., and take an Exemption Note which will not only sell the grain and meat but theii• shelter and clothit;g, and turn the family out to beg. Again : Is not the poor man the most miserable fool alive, who will sign a note that will place himself' and family entirely at the mercy of the creditor? After sign ing-one of these notes his freedom is all that is left. Every tatter be has in the world can be taken from him. lie can be left as naked as the day he was born. What is to be thought of laws that will permit tb like in a civilized community? Is it not an insult, yea a crime, - to ask a poor man to sign such an infamous bond ? We believe it is both a crime to ask it and to sign it. It is a crime against the wife, perhaps. the unborn babe, against human ity, against business, and against the spirit of the statutes of the grand old Common wealth of Pennsylvania. ETA TOR QurrE a flurry was created in political circles, on Monday evening last, at the announcement that Hon. Simon Cameron had resigned the United States Senator ship, to take effect upon the election of his successor. Immediately all manner of reports were put in circulation in regard to the intentions or the aged and honora ble Senator, but they were the mere spec ulations of interested parties. Mr. Camer on is in his 79th year. The cares of office weigh heavily upon him and he wishes to get rid of the annoyance and worry. He has, also, a laudable desire that his son. Hon. J. Donald Cameron, should succeed him, for which we give him credit. The indications are that his wish will be grati fied and that Mr. J. D. Cameron, on next Tuesday, will be unanimously elected to till the vacancy occasioned by his father's resignation. Mr. Cameron so ably filled the position of Secretary of War during the last few months of General Grant's ad ministration that his ability is universally admitted. The opposition to the Camerons will organize at once, and, though it may be powerless at this time, yet two years hence it may be in a condition to make itself se.: verely felt. The younger Cameron is in perfect ac cord with the policy of President Hayes, and, therefore, his election will be univer sally approved by the business men of the State. WHEN we went to press last week the President had not nominated his Cabinet, though its composition was pretty well foreshadowed. Thefollowing distinguished gentlemen were invited and accepted port folios : Secretary of State, Hon. Wm. M. Evarts, of' New York ; Secretary of the Treasury, Hon. John Sherman, of Ohio; Secretary of War, Hon. George W. Mc- Crary, of lowa ; Secretary of the Navy, Hon. Richard W. Thompson, of Indiana; Secretary of the Interior, Hon. Carl Schurz, of Missouri ; Postmaster General, Hon. David M. Key, of Tennessee; and Attorney General, Hon. Charles Devens, of Massachusetts. There was considera ble opposition to several gentlemen named, but by Saturday last., the opposition had subsided and most of them were confirmed by the Senate without any formidable op position. The Cabinet, though made up of the different political elements of the country, gives general satisfaction, and the administration of 'President Hayes starts off very favorably. IN this country when there is so much money bequeathed, from time to time, for benevolent objects, it is strange that some one or several have not Eet apart a suffi cient amount of money to endow a news riper or periodical which could be gener ally circulated, at a merely nominal price, in which Science, Religion, Politics, and in fact everything in which the masses are immediately concerned, could be fully dis cussed. 'As the case now stands no liberal paper or periodical of this character can be sustained by voluntary support. If such a medium -were established and pr - erly directed it would wield an all power ful influence. THE idea of electing or appointing peo ple to office, during good behavior, became repugnant to the American System of Government at an early period in our his tory, and every ventage of it has been blotted from the statute books of every one of the original States. Officers are now elected or appointed for a term of years, and there is Feareely one in ten that is his own successor for half a decade. Rotation in office is the rule ; a life lease the exception. The party that undertakes to reverse this order of things may ju.4t as well proceed to select the site foe its mausoleum. THE skies are clear and secrene at Wash. ington. The new President starts on 116 four year voyage with the good wishes of the great bulk of the nation. The south ern plicy will work out its own solution. Let ti.e good work go on.

Ti;.' talcs in the ea,,e, an Cornelius states them,are about thus : The old man neversitewv: very mu h feetirq tor the children but William. Oar neliu4 strieken with epilepsy in his e ar ly youth, and has beenahe vietint of that terrible disease until within a few years past. He had it for a long time in its worst form, and was actual ly unable to do business. Later in life be recov ered from it, to a very great degree, and married, but, in the meantime, William had grown to 11340 . 11 estate, and was being trained by his father into the care of the rapidly growing notate. Corneliun had no children, and the old man paid but little more attention to hint than as if he had not been bin son. Worth at the timehalfa hundred millions, he allowed bin second non and bin wife the tnagniti cent sum of t 2.ten fortbeir summit, about half that any respectalle em pleyee in his railroad enterpri4,3B wan receiving. The representative of the Van derbilt name could no live upon this, an a matter of course, and so ho ran into debt. Finally old age warned the great railroad man that he bad h a t a short ti n ts on earth, and he made bin prepara tions for kis departure. lie seemed to have but one idea and that was to perpetuate the•name of Vanderbilt, and hold together in one mass the money that gilded it and made it all it was. Il an daughters could not carry the name, Immune their children took the names of their fathers, Cornelius, the second non, had no children, and William H., the eldest son, bad not only children but they were boys. So he left Cornelius, not 4200,000, but the income from that amount. To the daughters he left similar incomes, and all the balance he left to Wm. and his suns. That is to say, he left one hundred millions of dollars to the son fortunate enough to have sons to carry the Vanderbilt name, providing that the income from about three mill ions of it should be paid to his other children. The will is to be contested, if it is contested at all, on the ground that it is unnatural, and that the old roan was antler undue influence when he made it. Several of the most celebrated lawyers in the country have been employed by the contestants. On the other side it is said that the old gentleman knew exactly what he was about. Ile left Corne lius about $20,000 a year which he claims is enough for him, and he left his daughters equally well used, which is enough for them. Ile left the estate in /he hands of IVilliam because he was the only one capable of handling the vast interests, and that they might be continued successfully, it was necessary that the property may be divided. Public opinion is divided. Some insist that the vast estate should be divided because the possession of so much money in the hands of one man is dan gerous, and others want it kept as it in, that the grand conceptions of the dead financier may be carried out. The fight will be a very pretty one, and the lawyers will have a fat thing of it. POLITICAL. The inauguration is over, and Hayes is as he should be, President. Tilden and Morrissey play ed a bold, daring game for very high stakes, they lost, and subside. All the talk of resistance has stopped, for it was never meant to be anything. It was intended to prevent the inauguration, if possible, but it was not intended to go any farther. The business Democracy are as well pleased as the Republicans that the question is settled, and they will g ye the new administration a cordial and honest support. The Wall street men held a meet ing, and resolved, and the Union League Club did likewise. Both bodies recognized Hayes as the legitmate President of the United States, and endorsed the policy shadowed forth in his inaugu ral as fully as ho could have desired it. The Cab inet is entirely satisfactory to New York •and al together there is a sort of political love-feast pre vailing, that is not only pleasant but encouraging I don't know which party is the best satisfied. It looks now as though Hayes would so amalgamate the warring factions as to make but one party be fore his term is out. And let me put a word in here. Go very slow in the matter of the Senators versus the President. Gov. Hayes is going to be President himself. He went into office with the promise that he would reform the civil service and that he would be the President of the whole country. lie will surround himself with the right men. He will urge the right measures, and if the politicians refuse to support him, ho will throw himself upon the people. Those who suppose Hayes to be a mere man of putty, who can be manipulated by traders and office-mongers, and made a mere ma chine of for others to grind, will find themselves mistaken. He Is a strong, self-reliant, self-willed man, who knows all about the Government, and who will run it. He has a fight on his hands, but he will win. He has the confidence of the people, and can afford to antagonize the trading politicians. FIRE-PROOF BUILDINGS. The fire in Bond Street, in which two millions of dollars went up, shows how little sense there is in builders. The building was built by the Waltham Watch Cu., and was intended to be fire-proof. The walls were massive, the front was iron, the beams and girders were iron, and everything was done to make the receptacle of millions of property abso lutely safe. But the floors were laid with Georgia pine, which is about all rosin, and the casings and all the interior work was made of wood. A fire got into it—how, no one knows—and this fire proof building went up about as quickly as a com mon frame barn. The inflammables inside made a heat that curled the iron supports like pipe stems, and actually melted the walls. The brick and iron afforded no resistance to the fire—it lick ed it up about as readily as it did the wood. And now the architects are figuring on buildings which won't burn. They never will do it, if they make the outside of brick and iron, and then put enough Georgia pine inside to melt it. FRIGHTENED CROW 93, Another terrible accident took place •Thursday night. A series of meetings are being held in St. Xavier Catholic church, for women and children, under the direction of a Jesuit missionary, who is a wonderfully moving preacher. He was dwelling on the horrors of purgatory, and had the congre gation of women—there was:twenty-five hundred of them—terribly excited. One woman lost con trol of herself, and shrieking, fainted. Some equally frightened woman shrieked fire, and the mass made a rush for the door. The strong tramp led remorselessly over the weak, and when the building was finally emptied, it was found that six women and four or five children had been tramp led to death. Nobody seems to be to blame, but it does seem as though in buildings intended for such purposes, some provision should bo made for constantly occurring accidents. The trawling killed as many people in the Brooklyn theater as the fire. JOE COBURN. There is some hope for New York. Joe Coburn, the pugilist, and democratic politician, discharged his little pistol at a policeman a few weeks ago and wounded him. The law, which men of the Coburn kidney have heretofore laughed at, took hold of him, and Joseph was not only convicted, but sen tenctd to ten years in Sing Sing. This ruffian has been` the terror of New York for years. He has been w prize-fighter, a keeper of all sorts of crimi nal resorts, and has been arrested hundreds of times, but he was so useful to the democracy lin handling repeators, and in organizing the shoulder hitters, for election days, that he has always been let off without much punishment. Bat the day of these fellows is over. Public opinion has got at la.t some influence with judges, and they dare not compromise with scoundrels who are so well known as this Coburn. And so, Joseph much to his dis gust, goes up for ten years, and his fellows shake in their shoes. Joe Goss, another one of the fra ternity, who was concerned in the Allen prize-fight in Kentucky, and was employed by the Democ— racy in stuffing the ballot-boxes in Cincinnati, was taken out of the city on a requisition from the Governor of Ken.ucky, and he will languish in the prison of that State for a while. The sky is brightening. BUSINESS is improving for certain. The hotels are full of merchants, and, thank heaven, they are buying. The big importers are rolling out bales and boxes in the must cheerful way, and the heart of the truckman is made glad. Now, good people in the interior. take a little heart. We aro not going to have war. We have a President, and things are going on smoothly and well. Build, buy, marry, and give in marriage, just the same as though you never heard of bard times. There was no occasion whatever for the howl, and now that the shadow is gone, don't stay frightened. If the people get back their courage, the times will be as good in a month as they ever were. Courage is what we want now. PIETRO. National Notes. Curreepondenee of the JOURNAL.) WASHINGTON, March 14, 1877.

THE CONGRESS. The House of Representatives of the 44th Con gress which came in with a yell went out with a groan. It was a House of more than average tal ent, although it had only one or two members of commanding ability. It died of insincerity and inaction. It had nose enough and to owe but no brain. It smelled with vigor and marvelous perseverance ; but it took delight in sniffing car rion only. For years, the creed of "practical" re publican statesmanship had degenerated into the parrot-like cry of "Rebel !" This Democratic House ran out its prodigious nose in response and parrotically sneezed out—" Thief!" Well, that was not at..tesmanship either; and so the nation wisely preferred to endure the ills they knew than fly to others that they knew not of. The lesson of the 44th Congress is ; Act. Nicknaming, reduced the Republicans to a minority; satellins. cost the Democrats a victory that was within their reach. PRr.FIDY.!4T GRANT. Grant's administration began and ended with a blunder; but both were baffled by the courage of men who could not be awed by executive power. Tba Senate hurled the puree proud Stewart back at the new President; and Packard bravely de feated the cowardly trick to overthrow him. By and bye, history will applaud the Senate and the Louisiana Governor. Grant, ae a statesman has been a failure—as disastrous a failure as Andrew Jackson, the worst of all our Presidents ; and yet history will say, I believe, that he was the great est lean who ever sat in the President's chair. Bat bia administration showy the folly of elevating military chieftains to great civil office?.

Keep cool! Neither the President nor his Sena torial assailants will be able to carry out their de ntructive policy. One has as tench right ai the other to rule the Republic. Neither the President nor the leaders who oppose him represent the en tire Republican party. One has as mach right as the other to represent it. Neither the Exe,u , iie nor the Senate hat the sole right to determine a policy nor to select the proper teen to carry it out. Both are partly right and partly wrong. I think the people can afford to stand quiet for a while and see fair play between there fierce con testants. There are just as many hungry spoils wen with the President as with the Senate. There is a "iienatorial Ping"anda"Wilite House Ring." What the people want in justice faq arid ii, . peace; and in this struggle of rival policies and rival politicians they are not yet called on to silos an active part. Let us keep cool and gi-e each their due. It is not a great Cabinet, but there arc no weak wen in it. Taking both character and capaeil into consideration, it is the best and ablest Cabi net we have had since Lincoln called around him the chiefs of the party. . . . Evarts is an al,ler man than Fish, and his influence will he Letter here. Ile is not so rich. Shoddy will not play the frog co much in its at tempts to rival his social displays. Ilia I.IOIIEO he an American home,—not a court in miniature. And to know how great an advance in reform this will be, one must have resided here and have sern the feverish social life of the capital, under Grant, with the Fish family as its leaders. Sherman is quite equal to any of the NationLl Treasurers we have had since the war closed, aid he is a decided imrovement over some of them. If McCreary shall prove to be the equal of Den Cameron in an executive talent,his just reputation as a lawyer will be equalled by his fame as a War Minister. It is the fashion now to decry the Cam crone by the friends of the new President, but as ono hero denies that the late Secretary has shown himself to be a man of eminent capacity. Andho proved himself a worthy successor of Stanton, the greatest of all American War Ministers, when, in the last week of Grant's adtninistriition, he refused to send the order that was designed to overthrow the Louisiana Government. Ile had the courage to say to Grant that the President could have his resignation, but that he would nut sign that order. Gen. Sherman sent it. Thompson will hardly be inferior to Robesen. Neither of them are human ciphers, and neitiler of them are great officers. Devens will add no popular strength to the par ty in New England or elsewhere, hut, on the other hand, he will not degrade the office that Taft has adorned, and I can pay him no higher compliment —for Taft will be remenibered after the passions and gushings of the day have passed away as ane of the purest and ablest and most patriotic coun sellors whom Grant ever selected. Taft has been denounced simply because he honestly held that the blackest Republican was the equal of the whitest bandit of ,gississippi and ought to be pro tected by the party that forced him to be the belt-- er of the dangerous gift of the ballot. That dim trine is heresy to-day; but heresy dues nut fear to-morrow. As Henry Clay did not remark, I would rather be Taft than President just now. Schurz will be a vast improvement over Chand ler in scholarship and as an exponent of princi ples; but he is likely to be inferior to him in execu tive capacity and as an administrative reformer. I have spoken with contempt of Chandler in this correspondence, and I felt the contempt I uttered for his character and his management of the 'ate campaign; but I disdain to join in the calumny about corruption in his department—for, although ho has put none but Republicans in office, he Ims rooted out incapacity and dishonesty wherever he has found it, and has reorganized and managed the Interior on business principles and methcds. If Schurz does as well he will do well enough. Key is a good man I believe, and an honest man, and a Union man. I know that his nomi nation has been urged by the best men who are exponents of national ideas in the democratic pa-- ty of the South. If the President had put tro Southern men in the Cabinet, one a Southern na tive white Republican, Hie Alcom or Settle, end the other a Southern native white Democrat, of the national wing. like Key or Joshua Hill, his policy would have been as wise as it would have been bold, and every intelligent Republican famil iar with the Southern situation, and uninfluenced by ambition or hatred, could have endorsed it and should have supported it with cordiality and hope fulness. Such, lam told. and directly from the White House,—from a Southern man who spoke with the President—was the programme that ho had arranged when he left Ohio. Indiana influ ences caused him to yield. It is a national mis fortune. For it is an insult keenly felt,—and I speak from personal knowledge—by all the brave and noble men, natives of the South, who for years have stood up unflinchingly against the fiercest storms of calumny and of ostracism among their own people because of their alliance with the Re publican party. It seems to them like an official announcement, by a Republican President, elected by Southern votes, that no Southern Republicans are fit to he honored and trusted with national po sitions. Scores of these men, each of them leaders in their States or counties, have called on me within the last two weeks, and have spoken freely of this affront. The Democracy will proclaim it from every stump at the next election. If thin error is not undone, we shall drive from us a majority of the white Republicans of the South, and certainly we shall not gain Democrats enough to fill op the gaps. SOUTH CAROLINA AND LOUISIANA. The President's policy on the two Republican Southern States is not officially announced yet, but nearly all of his partizans are plotting for the recognition of Hampton and Nichols. That is to say, it is al aintaiutd that, because the Mississippi plan did not succeed in these States,--because the Republican majority was so great, and the devo tion of the poor negroes to our party so religious in its character, that not even the assassination of their leaders and terrorism and the threats of homelessness could overcome it—we, Northern men, republicans in power, shall rally to the help of the baffled ruffians and finish the task of the bull-dozers ! If this policy is (tarried out, there will be an exodus from the party that will make Moses and his little crowd of fugitives forgotten. For, every Republican who honestly believes in his creed must decline to become a party to this crowning infamy; and the Southern white Repub licans will leave us—and nearly all the negroes— in a body. But, until the President shall declare by his own words or acts that by self-government he did not mean the rule of all the people but only whit.-government; and that by Home-rule he meant only democratic supremacy without regard to the rights of the majority-1 shall decline to believe that President Hayes is a traitor and an ingrate. I cannot believe it. I know only that because he speaks words of good-will some of his followers are arguing that it is right to sacrifice our friends in the South in order to prove their loyalty to him ! "lie who serves his country best serves his party best," says the President. And it is equally true that he who is most loyal to principle will be most loyal to the President, whether it shall cause him to thwart or to eupfort the policy of the Administration. - At last the day of final adjournment has been fixed. The House passed a resolution on Tuesday last to adjourn upon Friday the 23d day of March, and the Senate at Q4co concurred in the resolution. This result, however was nut arrived at without a lively light in the House between the friends and opponents of an early adjournment. Mr. Jackson of Mercer, who was opposed to the resolution was quite pointed and cesphatic iu his remarks. lie charged that the lobby was not altogether de stroyed by the new constitution and though it could no longer obtain special legislation it sought to kill certain bills now before the House by cut ting off all legislation.

As this bill only effected the powers of the democratic sheriff of Philadelphia, the democratic side Of the house immediately arose in noisy protest and de clared that the motion was out of order. The motion was put, however, by the speaker and carried by a vote of 75 yeas and 52 nay o, where upon the democrats claimed that it required a two-third vote to bring up the bill. The speaker decided that it required only 11 majority, and amid much noise and (mansion the democrats appealed from the speakers decision, and finally bppersistent filibustering aueceeded in consuming the time of the House until the hour of adjournment had arrived and defeating for the present the colloid- IAYE4 THE NEW CAB/NP,T.
