BUYING VOTES MUST BE STOP- PED, The press is speaking out, all over the State, on the horrible bribery which has heretofore disgraced our political system. The Walter case has caused a thrill of horror to run through our whole body po- litic, and this business must, be stopped. The last issue of the Bedford inquirer con tains the following timely remarks : "This is the first case of the kind that has been tried since the adoption of the new con stitution. By this decision Walteris compell ed to pay a fearful penalty for violated law. We hope it may be a salutary lesson and that candidates and politicians generally will bear in mind that the day for buying themselves into office is past. Politics bad become so corrupt that the framers of our new constitu tion deemed it necessary to embrace as one of the settled principles in our organic law that he who would procure office through dis reputable means was morally disqualified to fill office, and to this effect proposed and adopt ed the article cited in ,he opinion above re ferred to, thus producing the, means through which it was hoped polit . cs would be purified and bad men kept out c, office. It certainly affo - ds the means to the people of this state to settle these results if they will take advantage of the opportunity offered them. A law is a dead letter if not enforced when violated. No good citizen will willfully violate the law, nor does a citizen act in good faith toward the law or to his fellow citizen by quietly stand ing by and seeing another violate the law. If a candidate for office endeavors to get the vote and influence of a citizen by offering him mon ey or position or anything of value or does anything that is corrupt in its tendencies, the citizen does not perform his full duty towards his State by simply refusing to comply with the requests of the candidate ; he has another duty to perform if he desires to have the law vindicated. The candidate who has thus B.p proached him, by the highest authority in the State, has rendered himself unfit for the office he would fill and the citizen whom be would thus bribe with money or promises is bound as a good citizen and one who wishes to see the law prevail to make known the fact and see that offended law gets her just deserts. Men violate with impunity only when they know or believe they will not be punished for their transgressions. But let it be known and understood that the voters revere the consti tution and laws of their State, and that they will denounce. and expose any one who violate the same and at once there is introduced a higher and healthier tone of morals and men who can only get position through corrupt and improper influences are forced into the background. The people have the power to purify politics ; if they, use that power they can accomplish that end,if not, we must move on in the same old channel." POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS. The general failure of Savings' Banks throughout the country, makes it obligato ry upon our law makers to devise some plan to protect the earnings of the poor. This can only be done successfully by the General Government, and the post offices should be the medium. It strikes us if there were two or three depositories in a large State like PennsylvaWia,—say one in Philadelphia, a second in Harris l . - Lirg and a third in Pittsburg, they would be suffi cient for all practical purposes. Let every post office in the State be furnished with depositing blanks something similar to the oka marr,:;:asZ of for l!g - 6..tering letters or postal orders, and when any sum of money, not less than five dollars, is pre set_ ted the post.master need simply give a certificate of deposit, take the money and forward it, as registered letters are now forwarded, to the general depository, and on ten days notice, the money could be withdrawn. The depository should be compelled to invest all monies received in United States securities, and the interest paid to the depositor should be a fraction of a cent less than that paid in the banks. The difference in the interest paid and the interest on the bonds to go to pay the ex penses of the depositories. This plan, it seems to us, would be simple and meet the great want of the public. The few hands through which the money would be oblig ed to pass would make it extremely safe. There would be very if any, risk to run. As it is now, es: ty man through whose bands a registered letter passes gives a receipt for it. Iv the surmise be true that Plevna is soon to surrender, remarks the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette, the war between Russia and Turkey will soon be over. It seems impossible that the Turks should lose so large an army. and be able to con tinue the struggle. The attitude of Eng land, just now, is suggestive. Before the war began we published an extract from a work published in 1854, entitled "Arma geddon," which specifically predicted a war between Russia and Turkey in 1877, to end in 1878, in which Russia apparent ly captures Constantinople. England be comes involved in this war, attempts to rescue Constantinople, and is defeated. AU this early in 1818. As matters now look, the prediCtion constitutes a curious coincidence Ibr the Brinckle divoice suit in Phila delphia, in which a woman having lived with a man for many years, without a mar riage ceremony having been performed, she claimed to be his wife, and asked for a divorce, the jury decided, on Monday, she never had auy claim on defendant accord in to the laws of the State, and the ver dict was, therefore against her. Tn President's message came to band too late for insertion in this week's paper, and as it would not pay us to purchase extras co furnish our seventeen hundred subscribers, we will have to defer its pub lication until next week. It is quite a voluminous document, and treats of mat ters of general interest to the country. KELLOGG, of Louisiana, after five years' absence from the U. S. Senate, is his own saceessor,he having resigned N , v. 3, 1872, to accept the Governorship of Louisiana. There have been fur other claimants to the seat since he resigned—Pinchback , McMillan, Eustis, and Spofford. A THouotrrFur, friend,at our elbow, sug gests that Gov. llartranft should have con sulted the Labor-Greenback men in this eonnty before he made the appointment for Prothonoatry. In the language of the celebrated Roman triumvir "there is fun &bead r WE assure the Urbana (Ohio) Gazette, that its suggestion is not a good one for this latitude. It may work well in Ohio, but with the competition here it would never do. LITERARY NOTES.- Pretty Polly Pemberton, a Love Story by Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, author of "Theo," "That Lass o' Lowrie's," etc., and reprinted from "Peter eon's Magazine," is published this day by T. B. Peterson & Brothers, Philadelphia. This novel deserves more credit than a passing, notice. It calls itself "a love story," and by this standard, and this only, therefore, should it be tried. Judg ed in that way, it is, like "Theo," as nearly per-. feet as possible. In the first place, it has that greatest artistio merit in a story, thorough unity; not an incident, not a character, hardly a sentence , could be struck out, without injury. Everything has a bearing on the denouement. There are no needless .t.'sodes, no padding of any kind. How rare a merit this is, can only be realized by exam ining critically the works even of the best novel ist. In the next place, the characters are all nat ural, and consistent with themselves throughout. There are no imrossible heroes, or heroines ; no body does anything exceptional, or improbable; yet the interest is always kept up, nay, increases with every chapter. This also is a rare excellence• In the last place, the heroine is charmingly fresh' original, womanly and loveable. The hero, too' is capitally drawn. The touches, infinitely deli cate, by which this London guardsman and "swell" is made to stand out on the canvass, deserve the highest praise. If the author, when sirs wrote this story, and so modestly claimed so little for it, was not aware of its real merits, then she literally did what few do— she "builded better than she knew." The volume is issued in uniform style with "Theo," and will have a large sale, as its price is but 50 cents a copy, and it will be found for sale by all booksellers and on all Railroad Trains, or copies of it will be sent to any one, to any place, post-paid, on remitting 50 cents in a letter to the Publisher, T. B. Peterson .t Brothers, Philadelphia, Pa., EDITOR DICKENS' LITTLE FOLKS.—Nothing has given the writings of Charles Dickens so strong a hold upon the hearts of parents as the well-known ex cellence of his portrayal of children and their in terests. These delineations having received the approval of readers of mature age, it seemed a worthy effort to make the young also participants in the enjoyment of these classic fictions. With this view, the different child characters have been detached from the large mass of matter with which they were originally connected, and presented in the author's own language, to a new class of readers, to whom the little volumes will, we doubt not, be as attractive as the larger origi nals have so long proven to the general public. A series of twelve volumes has been prepared, presenting, among others, the following charac ters : "Little Paul," from Do mbey & Son ; "Suiike," from Nicholas Nickleby ; "Little Nell," from the Old Curiosity Shop; "The Child Wife," from Da vid Copperfield, &c., &c. A new edition of the first volume of this series, "Little Paul," from Dombey & Son, has just been issued, illustrated by Darley, and attractively bound. The other volumes will follow at short in tervals. For sale by all booksellers, or sent post-paid for $l.OO by the Publisher, John R. Anderson, Hart ford, Conn. Messrs. 11. 0. Houghton & Company, of Bos ton. publishers of the Atlantic Monthly, have just issued a fine, life-size portrait of John Greenleaf Whittier, the beloved and honored Quaker poet, whose name is a household word in tens of hous ands of homes, and wherever the English language is spoken. The fact that Mr. Whittier completes his 70th year in December makes the publication of his portrait at this time peculiarly appropriate, and we aro sate that there arc many of our read ers who will be glad to avail theinselves of this op_ portunity to procure it. The price of the portrait to all subscribers or purchasers of the Atlantic Monthly is but One Dollar, and the picture, which is of unusual excellence and finish, is the work of J. E. Baker, one of the best crayon artists in the country. The Atlantic itself presents a most attractive programme for the coming year,—serial stories by W. D. Howells, Henry James, Jr., and W. 11. Bishop ; short stories by T. B. Aldrich, Rose Terry Cooke, Constance E. Woolson, J. W. De Forest, and others; frequent sketches and es says by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner , the two best American humorists; descriptions of foreign life and travel by the B,ulptor Story, T. B. Aldrich and C. E. Norton ; poetry by Whitti er, Longfellow and Holmes; and many other good things,—all for $4.00 a year; and the publishers will moreover send the November and December numbers for the present year free to all new sub scribers. Beautiful life-size portraits of Longfel low and Bryant, similar to that of Whittier, can be also obtained by subscribers or purchasers, it de sired, for $l.OO each, additional. Our New York Letter NEW YORK, Dee- 5, 1377. Thakegiving— Political—Silver—Life Inenrance and Sing Sing—The Baby Show•—The Temper ance War—Bueinees. THANKSGIVING• New York is about as much of a New England city as Boston. Business of every kind was sus pended, except the up-town drinking places, which did a bigger business than usual. There were thousands of turkeys oonsutned, acres of punkin pies, barrels of cider, and the day was given over to mirth and jollity. The charities nil gave their beneficiaries a turkey dinner. The newsboys' home f•d over two thousand waifs, on turkey cud mince pies, and a pleasant sight it was to see the homeless and hungry take a square meal, some thing they wont get again till next Thanksgiving. The churches were more than usually crowded, and altogether the day was a success. POLITICAL. There is no question but that Tilden his arrang ed a bold stroke fur the Presidency. If Spofford and Butler are given seats in the Senate, and Pat terson and Conover stay with the Democracy, giv ing them the control of the Senate, he expects to have both houses declare him the legally elected President and will be inaugurated. Then he will have both houses recognize him, and thus elbow .President Hayes out of the way. Of course this would precipitate civil war, but little does Tilden care for that. He spent five millions to buy the Presidency, and he has no more idea of giving up the chase than he had last October. It is the am bition of his „life, the one thing he has lived for, and this is his last chance. The Democracy will never nominate him again, and it is now or never. But outside of the desperate politicians, who con sider themselves defrauded out of places, the scheme does not meet with favor. The respecta ble portion of the party in this city believe in the honesty and integrity of President Hayes and they know the effect bis policy has had upon trade. The Soatbern trade has more than doubled since last March, and it is increasing daily. The South is peaceful and quiet, both races uniting in an effort to repair the ravages of war, and restore it to more than its old-time prosperity. The South is earning something and has a surplus. Hayes did what Tilden coula not have done, and the merchants of New York realize it. The scheme of the great fraud will find no encouragement here. Silver is so plenty as to become a nuisance. It is only worth 93 cents on the dollar, and the retail ers, restaurant keepers and others are taking ad vantage of it. You go into a restaurant and ten der ass greenback and you will get hack ;3 in silver dollars. As these people pay 93 cents for them, they make seven cents every time they can do this, which is a very handsome addition to their profits. The places of amusement buy silver reg ularly to give out in change, and the result is, silver is the circulating medium. If the I3land bill should pass, it would drive out gold and paper money altogether. "The dollar of our daddies" is getting as plenty as blackberries. LIFE INSURANCE AND SING SING The scoundrelly President of the Security Life Insurance Company, who swore to a surplus of about a quarter of a million when it hadn't a dollar, and who did all sorts of things in a most irregular way, has been sentenced to five years in the peni tentiary at hard labor. This is well. Case was a man of large property, and one ot the class known as "Eminently Respectable." He stood high in the church and in society, and, it is probable, didn't realize that in plundering a vast number of people by means of Life Insurance that he was doing any wrong. It is a fashionable kind ot stealing, this Life Insurance and Savings Bank ow ndling, and the respectable Case was an aston ished man when he was pulled up to answer. Such a thing had never happened before, and he could not believe that anything serious would coins of it. He protested that be had never examined the con dition of the company—that the statement was brought to him, and he swore to it, without know ing what it was. But the Judge held that a Presi dent who received $lO,OOO pc; annum to manage the interests of twenty thousands widows end orphans ought to know something about it, and so he sends him up for five years. despite his respec tability. Dr. Lambert, the president of the swind ling American Popular will go nest, and the law is reaching for Farber, the President of the North American. A Life Insurance President in striped clothes is a che rfel aDd improving sight, and there ought to be more of them. The good com panies in the city have been largely instrumental in bringing about thin most excellent result, for the reason that the companies that expect to pay losses have had a bard time competing with the swindle-shops that were organized to fall when they could make more money by failing than con tinuing. Now the business is on a better and safer 'basis than ever. TEE BARY SLOW. An enterprising genius has fitted up a ball cor SILVER nor of Fourteen Street and Fifth Avenue, and or ganized a baby show. lie advertised for all sorts of babies, fat, lean, large, small, single, twins and triplets, and he succeeded in capturing a hundred or more. There are a dozen of twine, some of them very handsome, and some very ugly, and there are three sets of triplets, which are the most unaccountable specimens of ugliness I ever beheld. The father of one of the sets of triplets exhibits them, and is as proud as though he was entitled to credit for them. The show is a success, so far a' attracting people is concerned. A throng of women stream through the hall from ten in the inc.-I - ling till twelve at night. and the babies are punched, felt of, kissed and hugged, according as they are dirty or clean, pretty or otherwise. The exhibitors arc all poor people, who get from one to two dollars a day, with a chance of winning a prize. The visitors all vote for their favorites, and those having the most votes in their class, get premiums. It is a curious exhibition. One man brought a baby to exhibit, a very young one, the mother being sick at home. The first night he picked up his baby, and took it to its mother, when 10, it happened to be a girl, whereas his own child was a boy. He rushed back to the hall and got another child, but that was not the right one. And he has been taking children home ever since, but he has not yet got his own. The mother, who could recognize her child, is too sick to go to the hall, and so there is trouble. THE. TEMPERANCE WAR. The Law and Order League continue their fight on rum, and they accomplish something. Last Sunday the bars were very generally closed, and about a hundred of the worst class of groggeries have been closed permanently. They arrest and fine, and if the offender continues, they arrest and fine over again, making it unprofitable for all who have nolt a big business. The hotels and big sa loons took it as a joke at first, and paid willingly, but they are getting tired of it, and are organizing to resist. It is doubtful whether they can be forc ed to stop, but if the cheap bucket-shops can be closed, a great thing has been done. In addition to prosecuting the rum-sellers, the League has organized a temperance movement among the workingmen, and thousands are pledging them selves to abstain. Employers announce that in all cases preference will be given to total abstain ers, and men are followed as they are entering the rum-mills and influenced to keep out, and every possible influence is brought to bear to keep them straight after th..y have once quit. The work has plenty of money behind it, and is going on system aticaly and to some purpose. The rummies are having a serious time of it. It was noticeable that there were fewer breaches of the peace Thanks giving day than have been known of a holiday for years, for which the league claims the credit. BUSINESS Continues good for these times. The South is buying very largely, and merchants report good payments, and everything sound and serene. The rains have ceased, and cold weather has set in in earnest. PIETRO. State News. News. Diphtheria killed thirty hogs in a Pitts. burgh distillery.

EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL—Dear Sir:—Sonle time ago we wrote a couple of articles for the JOURNAL to "Justices of the Peace," and, as there is rather a close alliance between lawyers and jus tices of the peace in their practice, the latter oft en being influenced in their judgments by the for mer, we have thought it might not be out of place to write a short article to the lawyers. And in doing this, as in the former articles, we do not wish to be personal. We have no particular law yer in view. Drawing our bow at a venture, we have this request to make, that all the profession who may notice the above heading will read our article carefully through, and if any of you find that our arrow hits you, please do not hand it over to your neighbor, but take it to yourself; and improve by it. We would say here, without the fear of success ful contradiction, that great injustice is practiced by some lawyers upon witnesses placed upon the stand. Take fur instance a delicate, nervous la dy ; she has never been a witness in court before; she is sworn to testify what she knows of this is sue now before the court and placed upon the stand. Here the eyes of a thousand spectators, and perhaps a score or more of lawyers, are placed upon her; no wonder she is embarrassed with all this gaze upon her, and, knowing, too, that she has sworn, in the presence of God and these wit nesses, to tell "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth." In this situation she is addressed by a lawyer in a bland, gentlemanly manner, thus: "Madam, will you please go on now and state to the court and jury what you know of this action now before the court." The lady com mences in a low trembling voice to make her state ment. She, however, has not proceeded far, until she is interrupted by the opposing counsel telling her in a loud, and authoritative manner, "Madam, speak louder the jury cannot hear you." The lady at once obeys the command and exerts her lungs to their full capacity to speak louder. The oppos ing counsel sees that her testimony is damaging to him and his client and heinterrupts her again, harshly, "Madam, what you say 710:0 is entirely ir relevant—it has nu bearing whatever on the issue before the court." Here the lady is relieved for a time while the different counsel squabble over her testimony until the Court perhaps, decides that she shall proceed. Soon she is interrupted again by the counsel telling her that "we want nuns of your hearsays, we just want you to tell us what you know yourself," and thus it goes on all through her testimony, which, if she is an important wit ness, way occupy several hours. Prom this out line, the reader can form some idea of what the lady has to pass through in giving her testimony in court, and if this were all, her situation would be pitiable enough, but the half is not told; just here her trials commences. She has now given an honest and full statement of ail she knows in the case. And now the lawyer, who spoke so politely to her at the commencement of her examination, and protected her when she was interrupted, hands her over to the opposing lawyer telling him the witness is yours now for cross examination. The lawyer looks at her sternly, and with au air of importance as though the India:, mere his, and like Selkirk, he could say, "I am monarch of all survey, my rights there is none to dispute," he addresses the lady in a loud, harsh tone, and with every word and look tries to intimidate her. She has given her evidence forwards, he will now make her tell it backwards, and after this course is through she must commence in the middle and tell it each way. And while he • prevented her when she was giving her testimony from saying a word that was irrelevant he will now ask her many questions that have no bearing whatever in the case on trial. Thus he takes her backwards and forwarus, often shaping questions ler her to an swer that would be favorable to him and his cli ent. lie finally gets the lady so perplexed and embarrassed that she contradicts part of her testi mony. Now he has succeeded in making a point; he looks at the jury with a significant look, .as much as to say "what is her evidence wen h?" A large portion of the spectators smile at Dij success, and whisper around "be is a smart fellow." The lady sees what she has done, is chagrined, her em barrassment increases with this fai,ure, the lawyer takes advantages of this in pressing his eross-ex amiration—he finds it much easier now to get her to contradict her former statements than when be commenced. Still as he succeeds in breaking down her testimony he notices a smile of approval by a portion of the spectators. The lawyer is now through with his cross-examination, and after in sulting, and perplexing the lady for hours, he tells her, "we are through with you now, - you can leave," and, when he comes to plead his case be fore the jury, he refers to this lady's testimony, and says, what was it worth ? she contradicted al most every statement she made; she will swear to anything at all. Now any one familiar with court, and the practices of lawyers, w 11 admit, that the above is no fancy picture, but almost an every day occurrence. We ask the intelligent reader the question, has this lady been fairly treated? Sup pose her to be your mother, wife, sister or daught er, would you not feel badly to see her thus expos ed before court by an ingenious lawyer? All that he may gain a suit for his client and wake him self popular, she was compelled to attend court, was honest and truthful, and told uo•hing but what she knew to be true, yet this lawyer toe!: ad vantage of her nor. ous temperament and gut her to contradict her honest statements. Way is it that old men and ladies, to-day, ootninand some honor and respect in almost any position you place them in, except upon the a itness stand ? We have heard beardless lawyers talk to venerable old men upon the witness stand, with as little respect as though they were boys of eight ur ten years. When we go back to the earliest history we have of law yers, we find that they spoke insultingly to our Saviour, tempting hie), an¢ we arc sorry that some of them have followed up this practice es or since. Witnesses have been imposed upon in this way so long that they think it is the lawyers privilege to insult them upon the witness stand, and that they must submit to it as a matter of right, but let me say here, that lawyers have no more privileges in this regard than other men. In conclusion, we wish to take the most favora ble view of this subject that we can, and that is, that many lawyers insult witnesses, wore from habit, than a disposition to insult them ; this prac tice has been handed down by the profession until the lawyer thinks it is his privilege. This bower er, makes it no better on the part of the witness. We trust twat the few scattered thoughts that we have advanced on this subject may have the de aired effect, that they way lead lawyers, who have practiced as wo have stated, to change their course, and feel, that they, too, as well as all other men, are under obligations to treat women with honor and respect, not only upon the witness stand, but spare their feelings as much as possible, even when they are arraigned for crimes that we shall not mention here.
