Aged railroad corporations are held by the bayonets of the eonn not about time that the general , t be authorized to take charge of and run them ? Tim Ring known as the "old Quarter Sessions Ring," of Philadelphia, is mak a desperate effort to nominate a candi for District Attorney. Their ways dark and many of their tricks are any log but vain down there. THY. letter carriers, the hardest worked 1 . ; set of men in the employ of the Govern ment, have been badly misrepresented by philanthropist of the Philadelphia _Ledger. We hope the carriers will set him and that the Post Office Department It them their reasonable requests. THE stock-holders and laborers of rail road companies stand upon about the same T footing. They follow each other out sue cessively at the little end of the horn. It . ui the officer who lives in luxury, moves lut in - special oars, owns mansions, and __ wealth away up in the hundreds of thousands if not millions. are told that the railroad officials commenced discharging the men who manliness to insist upon sufficient ,to keep themselves and little ones from starving. It is now about time for • the stock-holders to discharge the officials. They have not only brought starvation to ( s tbe Euployees but to many of the widows who invested their all in stock A LARGE proportion of tire official class •if employers of great corporations, it would seem, have earned their salaries, for years, in devising schemes to line their -own pockets at the expense of stock-hold era and laborers: The question with them has been how to divert the largest portion ' , of the re' '-to thei- individual cof -IV - ~~-_ WHAT OF THE STRIKE ? The country for the last fortnight has been shaken, from centre to circumference, by the mightiest labor revolt in the history of civilization. It seemed us if the very atmosphere was life with strike. If some Dr. Ox had been experimenting upon us Ls certainly would have bees entirely satisfied with the results of his experiments. From Manhattan Island io the East to the Golden Horn in the . West, the locomotive was, in a sense, throttled. The iron horse was given a breathing spell, while his keepers contended about the price of labor and provender. A few leading railroads, whose affairs are controlled by officials with heads that knew what they were about, yielded to the reasonable demand of their blood and sinews, and the storm was allays.', and they profited by the folly of their sturel neighbors. But it would be a very great stretch of fancy to suppose that all railroads have Solomons at their heads. In fact the presumption is the re verse of this. And it held good in this instance. Some men are endowed with great firmness, great obstinacy perhaps would be better, and this mulish trait of character ovetrides reason and common sense, as well as the common dictates of hurnaeity. and if everything does not just move as they think it ought to, they, to use an emphatic declaration of the late Gov. Geary, want to "smash things." This class of men aro responsible fits much of. th, evil that besets the world. Their im pulses are born of passion and selfishness. The characteristics of the barbarian and of theanthropoid ape and all which have pre ceded them, crop out It is not the broad and comprehensive views begotten of the ca -eful examination of the various details which enter into such vexed questions.— Enlightened minds first thoroughly weigh the evidence and then make up their judg ment and do that which will prove the best for all concerned. After they are satisfied they are right then they go ahead. If this liberal way, dictated by the age in which we live, had been followed, there would have been no strike, and after the strike was inaugurated, if a liberal course of this kind had been pursued, the strike would not have lasted beyond twenty-four hours. But the men who aro at the head of railroads, held in power by the bayonets of the country, could not stoop to reason with their workmen. That would have been humiliating ! Capital generally manifests a supreme contempt for labor. Every snob, every toady, thinks he can insult the brawny arms upon which society subsists. But such are not supposed to know that the whole superstructure of society is borne up by the men of toil and muscle, and that when the foundation is assailed the ruination of the lofty castle may readily be predicted. Capital can no more be sustained without labor than the human system can be without food.— A healthy. body must have a healthy stomach. The stomach is the great worker, and with the assistance of the lungs, which are to it what capital is to labor, every thing moves harmoniously. The lungs that would set up for themselves, aed jeer and sneer at the stomach, would soon be taught the folly of such a course. And yet within the last week or ten days how many persons have we heard speak of the laborer as if he we're the merest chattel, the merest machine ! We have heard men rejoice at his destruction as if he were the insect that disturbed their peaceful slumbers. We, have heard men gloat over the prospect that grape and canister would be freely brought into requisition to sweep many of them out of existence. We have foued that a word or two in his behalf has brought down the disapprobation of a whole batch of white livered, toady upstarts, who imagine that because they can, by hook or crook, keep from manual labor, that they are capitalists and can roundly abuse men who are as much their superiors in everything that makes man noble and useful as it is possible to be. If he had not known better we would have supposed, from the criticisms, that it was a crime to defend the laborer, and a still greater crime to criticise his antagonist. But no amount of currish barking has ever frightened us from ex pressing our honest views, and while we can push a pen that pen will express our sentiments without regard to the little or big curs that may go snarling and barking around at respectable distances. The uniform burden of the song of every popinjay, as well as that of many whose opinions are worthy of respect, has been that the laborer has had a perfect right to strike but that lie had no right to interfere with any other laborer who desired to take his place. This latter position has been thrust at us so frequently that it is very evident that it is considered a knock down argument. Now, then, from an in dividual standpoint we freely admit the force of the argument. Every individual should control his own business. If any employee undertook to interfere with our business he would do so at his peril. We venture to say the attempt would not be repeated for a mouth or two at least. But, mark you, this is the case of an individual who is conducting an individual business only, being responsible to the State for his good behavior. 'How different is the case of a huge corporation which receives its franchises from the State. and which is watched over by it. Those who control it and those who perform its -labors are alike employees. The directors are mere agents—made so by the law. They em ploy thousands upon thousands of men of the official and laboring classes. Their numbers are of such magnitude that they go to make up a large proportion of the aggregated population of the State. They are employed, many of them, decade after decade, by the same corporation. They have only fitted themselves for the one occupation—and indeed at present there is no labor to be had outside of it. Hun dreds of them have been injured, one way - - EDITOR ___a_- id another,in the employ of their respective mpanies. They have become, in a sense, fixtures, if it is possible to make fixtures of flesh and blood. They have acceded reductions in their time until their mthly wages would scarcely pay a decent with scarcely a murmur that has reached headquarters. They are absolutely a starving condition. The company— . 1~~ J ~ J. IPrr , V 4, IF-r IinOWN4OIIOOI , the official employees—turn around to their laborers and say "we must make a still further reduction, and if you cannot work at these figures you must stand aside and make room for those who can." The man who has perhaps served the company faith fully for twenty years, has lost part of a hand or been otherwise injured in its ser vice, has a large family around him de pending upon him for its support, is now asked to stand aside and make room for a man who has no experience, no claim on the Company, no family depending upon him for support, simply because he can live upon less wages ! And then to say that the outraged employee has no right to resist the employment of this man is simply preposterous! Necessity knows no law. Nor can the State permit such an outrage upon a large portion of its citizens, and it can only be reached by revolution. Resistance is necessary to bring about a proper redress of grievances. Suppose the Pennsylvania Railroad Company con cluded that it could save one-half its ex penses for labor by importing ten or twenty thousand coolies and thereby supplant that many American laborers. Just think of ten or twenty thousand men thrown out of employment to the derangement of every community and the great peril of the society of the State, simply because the official class of a corporation could import a new class of men to labor at half the wages ! If there were even ne strike to follow, such a state of affairs would produce anarchy at this time when there is no em ployment to be had. But does any sen sible man doubt that these discharged American laborers would have no right to resist the employment of these coolies ? The very best interests of society demand that they should. In fact to preserve law and order it would be absolutely necessary. In this feeble effort to defend the laborer we would not have any one to believe for a moment that we are in favor of lawless ness. Nay, nay. We are in favor of peaceable means for the settlement of all such questions, but once, perhaps in a generatiou,some principle must be wrenched from the governing class which will not be conceded only by the manifestation of force. When it becomes absolutely nece.s sary then it should take the moderate form of a strike and if prudence is exercised on the part of the antagonists it will stop at this, if not it may prove like io the late strike, more serious. But the strike is over, and now let us profit by the lesson which it has taught us. THE railroad officials who fled for their lives, a fortnight ago, are jubilant now that they have compelled the strikers, at the point of the bayonet, to receive such wages as they may dole out to them. "Oh, no," says the elated official, "they don't need to work unless they want to ; we can get plenty of others to take their places." Indeed ! At the point of the bayonets of United States muskets, charged to the muzzle, you said you must end this strike. And what was the•significant language of all this ? "You must take the wages we offer you or starve." "Go to work or starve" was the alternative and you know it. IF Governor Hartranft had•directed half the energy towards a compromise of the labor difficulties that he did to bring the strikers face to face with the soldiery, much expense, in all probability, might h(vebeen saved to the State and a much better understanding obtained between kis constituents. We commend the Governor for his promptness and energy, but it seems to us that it was all in the interest of cor• porations which would indicate that be thought the one party right and the other wrong. A few judicious suggestions to the impotent railroad officials might have work ed wonders. THE London World says that "nothing more important has ever happen3d in the history of English trade than the threaten ed displacement of our cotton manufacs tures by those of America. Piece goode from the Loosdale Mills, cf New York State, are now sold in every town in Eng land at a lower price and of better quality than English goods of a nominally corres ponding grade." LITERARY NOTICES, The Eclecti• Magazine for Aug :st has its usual variety of selection■ from the best of the foreign periodicals. It always aims to fill its plus with the very best—the cream of all that is good in the old and leading marazines,reviews, ac., across the water. This number has alt) a finely executed steel engraving of Paul 11. Wayne. Lippincott's Magazine contains matter that i■ light and entertaining and which may well serve to beguile the leisure hours of a summer vacatior at the sea side or in the country. WWI tLis number concludes the papers of Lady Blanche Murphy on the Rhine, which have been au interesting feature of this beautiful magazine for severaluionths past. The leading articles are finely illustrated. Every thing issuing from that house- -the Lippinoott's— is the very best, whether per.Jdioals, books or stationery. Littell's Living Age has been qf unusual during the early months of this year., never diminishes. Stocks may tumble, railroad shares may depreciate, but this goes on increasing in value with each year even though it maintains its old form and appearance. A lull set of the back volumes of the "Living Age" would be an invaluable addition to any library. A new vol ume began July Ist. Poultry raising has assumed a fresh interest in this part of the country, and it is followed both for profit and pleasure. No one who has not given the matter attention, has any idea of the profit there is to be derived from this seemingly insignificant enterprise; and the number and serious nature of the blunders that amateurs make will not be appreciated until they become readers of the Poultry World, which is very valuable to all those who are interested. The publisher, H. H. Stoddard, of Hartford,Connecticut is thoroughly awake to the interest of his readers. $1.35 per year, postage paid. The Christian Union's papers on "How to spend the Summer?" have, so far, been very interesting and instructive. If the present condition of our country continues we will all spend the balance of the summer in considerable anxiety. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher treats the White Mountains as usual; Rev. Lyman Abbot, Summer Camp Meet ings, etc., while (Jail Hamilton is to show us how to stay at home without grumbling, and if she succeeds In teaching this lesson which is a practical one to most of us, it will be a great pacific all over the country, and worth more to each than the Christian Union costs for a year. The Sanitarian for August is prefaced by a por trait of Prof. Pettenkoffer, and contains a bio graphical sketch of the same celebrated physician and teacher. The leading article for the month is a paper by Dr. A. N. Bell read before a section of the American' Medical Association at Chicago, on "Tuberculosis in Milch Cows and the conta giousness of Tuberculosis by the digestivsiergans." it is an established fact that milk is afruitful and dangerous source of disease, and a means of spread ing those diseases of a contagious nature. The greatest care should be exercised in the feeding of milch cows, and the attention given to their ac commodation, where often the most reckless care lessness prevails. These who sell milk should have their stables and utensils, with the feed of the cows under the vigilant observation of some properly authorized, and well qualified person.-- Thousands of lives are lost annually by ignorance and carelessness in these things, Ltd much suffer ing and distress entailed.

It is curious, but the Mercantile Reporters know more about the crops than do the men who grow them. Dun, Barlow .t Co. report that the wheat crop in the West will make an average of twenty five bushels to the sore, and that the other crops promise an equally large yield. If this be the case, and they know the yield will be simply enor mous, and there is no reason why the West should not be enormously rich, this season. And it will not be a big crop with no prioe to it. The grana ries hi this country are bare and the Crimea, the great competitor of America in grain-producing, is, this season, practically barred out. The Turkish war has shut that off, and America has this year, to feed the world. Hence there cannot be that diminution in price, that otherwise would follow a crop so immense; we have our twenty-five bushels to the acre with the price the same that it would be were it only the average of nine or ten. The West will be made rich this year, and there Cannot but be general prosperity. THY LABOR TROUBLE Is entirely over. The demagogues who attempted to excite the tramps and thieves to a riot failed signally, and the oity is as quiet as a mill-pond. The credit for this is due, entirely, to the Mayor and the police. Twenty-six hundred men thor oughly armed, were on duty all of last week as policeman, and all the militia regiments of the city were at their posts. At the first intimation of a riot the mob would have had this enormous force to meet, and every rifle and revolver was loaded with ball cartridge. The instructions were defin ite to shoot at the rioters first, and over their heads the second volfey. There was to he killing if a riot was provoked. The Communists under stood this, and they were very careful to give no occasion for military interference. The Commun ists are very shady now, and claim that they did not intend any trouble. But it is well known that they did intend to raise a riot and sack the city. They had their preparations all made. They ex pected the railro-A people to strike, and then all the Communists would join them, and the thieves and tramps falling in, there would be force enough to tyke possession of the city. Then buildings would have been fired, and the city would have been plundere4j. But no mob dare face an organ ised military force, and as soon as the conspirators know that the authorities were prepared fur them, it all died out. Mayor Ely is entitled to a great deal of credit for nipping it in the bud what was intended to be a very o.:_ngerous affair. POLITICAL. The action of the Ohio State Convention in giv ing an honest and decent endorsement to the Pres ident meets with decided`"approval here. No one :an know how much the mosey and business centre of the country is interested in the settlement of the troubles that have so long prostrated business. Hayes' policy, as it is called, has certainly given the South peace, and has restored confidence in the future of the South. Southern merchants are here buying goods, which is enough for the busi ness man. He comes with a smiling face and a look of confidence that he has not worn since the war. Speak to him about his affairs and be says: "I know what we are going to get," and be buys and trades accordingly. Hence the business men are all enthusias:'.c supporters of the President's policy, for they see in it an escape from terrors of the past four years. Tile EXODUS. If you read the daily papers you will suppose that everybody is out of town during the summer months. Nominally everybody is,—p..actically a greg many are not. You shall see in the society papers a great many names reported as at Swamp scott, the White Mountains, and all over the cool spots, who are safely ensconced in their own houses. To keep up the impression that they have followed the fashion and gone to a summer resort, they keep their front blinds closed, and go in and out the area door. The fact is, the moderately wealthy havn't had the money to go away for three years, and many of them have discovered that the air is &tout as good in a well-appointed house in the city as it is anywhere. The summer resorts are all losing money this year. The farm ers down on Long Lsland whb can set a fairly good table arc making a great deal of money by taking summer boarders at seven dollars'a week, the same people who used to live at Long Branch and Saratoga at ten dollars a day. The hard times has blighted the summer resorts. JAY GOULD POUNDED. The city was astonished, and delighted as well, en Thursday by the intelligence that a stock-brok er named &lover had beaten Jay Gould. It ap peared that Gould was carrying a great deal more of Atlantic and Pacific telegraph stock than he wanted, and he did not have as much Wes ern Union as he needed to control that gigantiecon cern. Seiover, Keene, the Californian, and other operators were in a tight place with various stocks that they had, and they appealed to Gould to help them, Gould agreed to do this, for he was short of the stocks they were overloaded with, and he joined the confederacy upon an agreement that they would let him have 70,000 shares of their stook. (Just enough to save him from loss,) and that they should as a matter of safety unload their Western Union. They did so,—Gould's brokers bought every share of Western Union they put upon the market. By this smart operation he got stocks enough at a low price to cover what he needed, and got possession of Western Union. It was a wonderfully acute transaction, and be made a taint of money by it. Naturally they were in dignant at this piece of sublimated rascality, and Keene tried to shoot him. &lover did-not attempt to avenge himself with the pistol, but went for Mr. Gould the first time he met him, and knocked him down an area, and pounded him till he was half killed. Selover says he did it to brand biro as a liar, a.thiof, a scoundrel, and a man who is incapable of doing a fair or square tbing. Gould is, doubtless, the most unscrupulous man living, as well as one of the must shrewd and daring. He knows no such thing as a friend, and to make a point in the market would sell out his grandmother. He was not true even to his old partner, Fisk, and no man on the board who has ever done business with him, has escaped, provided it was for his in terest to play him false. TILE CUARTER OAK. The turn of the tide in Life Insurance has come. The Insurance campapies of Hartford, and the prominent citizens, determined that the old Char ter Oak, with its splendid record, should not go down, and they raillied to save it. Marshall Jew ell, Ex-Postmaster general, and one of the most eminent manufacturers of Hartford, has accepted the Presidency, and a board of men of similar ca pacity and character second him. The old com pany will go on, and pay dollar for dollar. It is well, for the ruin of the companies was making trouble everywhere. The unnumbered thousands who have the hopes of families based upon Life Insurance want to have some assurance that their helpless heirs will get what they contracted for. The weak companies are about all played out now, and those remaining, with perhaps one or two ex ceptions, may be considered sound. BEER. We have no famine—food has been plenty dur ing the railroad disturbances, but there has been s drouth in beer. The beer made in the city is very bad, and the better-class of people get their sup plies entirely from the West. It comes on in re frigerator cars, and there is never a large stock on hand. The railioa l troubles interfered with transportatios, and there has treen a drouth. The beer drinkers go up and down athirst, and they mourn for their favorite beverages,and will not be comforted because they are not. There are fifty car-loads of beer a day, from Toledo, Milwaukee and Cincinati, consumed in this city, and you can imagine the consternation when the thirsty soul is informed that it is out. The first car-load since the strike came in yesterday, and it was made the occasion of a jubilee. The western brewers are building ice-houses here now in which to store their supp!,es, so that this will not occur again. THE ',ZASUHR to coolor and budnoss has revived perceptibly. There is every indication of a good fall's business, PIETRO. State News. Carbon county has 11 brass bands. The potato rot has made its appearance in Berks county. A number of coal mines are to be opened in Cameron county, Pa. The Harrisburg Patriot says the Pennsylva nia Steel Works at Baldwin have resumed op erations, giving employment to a large num ber of hands. Work upon the new Philadelphia Poet office will continue during the whole of the building season, and it is expected that by another year the edifice will be under roof. Bucks county is stirred with military ardor, and several companies have bean organized . Doylestown has one, New Hope another and a third at Newtown. One or two of these com • panies are now at Norristown, where the 16th regiment, of which they are a part,is quartered. The city of Philadelphia holds 59,149 shares of the stock of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany. These shares are part of the subscrip tion made by the city to the capital stock of the company when it was organized. They cost $5O per share, or a totarof $2,857,450. Their market value is now half that amount. The Pottstown Ledger remarks that it has heard of an east Coventry township damsel who was aroused from her slumbers earlier than usual to milk the cows on the place, and when become thoroughly awakened found she had stripped one cow but had no milk. The bucket she supposed she was:using proved to be a basket. A PREPARATION ,FHICH MEETS a want never before furnished to the invalid is BUNT'S REMEDY. Kidney.

MOUNT DE CIIAUT:LL ACADEMY of the VISITATION, NEAR WHEELING, W. VA. Parents in quest of a first-clais school for their delight era will do well to investigate the claims of this celebra ted Academy. For thoroughness in every department of female educa tion, Mount de Chantal ranks pre-eminently high, Great attention is given to perfect the pupils in writing and speaking French with fluency. For those sufficiently advanced it is the language of their recreation hours.

The renown for superiority in music is so wide spread as to have made this Academy almost a native one.
