The holders of the Stump Creek oil shares are jubilant, all' on accouut of oil being tapped the other day. Port's 926 pound beef went off like hot cakes, but so it should, for it was fat, juicy and tGothsome. Our coal dealers experienced a coal famine, as far as bituminous was concerned, the fore part of the week. W. W. & J. C. Hazlet have purchased the stock and fixtures of S. Wolf's clothing store, No. 414 Penn street. The total amount of coal shipped over H. &B. T. R. R. for the week ending Feb. 7, 1880, was 6887 tons. A great many people were io from tl country on Saturday, and our merchants did quite a rushing business. A union temperance prayer meeting was held in the Baptist church Sunday afternoon, and was largely attended. A number of •ur prominent Republican friends are urging the organization uf a Blaine club. Hurrah for Blaine Things look natural about the Union depot since our old friend, Mr. Wm. Clark, has taken charge of his old position. Saturday is Valentine day.

Daring the nights of the past week our lady friends hare given their house plants a little extra care, to keep them from being nipped by Jack Frost. The bioroglyphics made by Jack Frost these mornings on the window panes, are numerous and quite amusing, when noticed by the ob serving person. The Leader says that Wm. chileoftt, of Cromwell township, is lying very low trout in juries received by falling down a stair way some time ago. A grocer in Lewistown for five or six mouths past has had a water snake in a j,tr of water, and as it has eaten nothiitg in that time, is still alive and frisky. Our pen-picture of the "newspaper dead beat" is having a good run in the country press, and strange to say it appears in ticarly all of them as original. Wm.

Receipts and expenditures of Blair county : Receipts, $65,366.07 ; expenditures, $60,067. 18 ; balance in treasury, $5,297.87. Happy county, but its Court house is not paid for. David Heck, who had the misfortune to break his leg while at work at Barret, on Sat urday a week ago, was taken to his home at Three Springs, on the same day, by his father.

We understand excursion tickets will be issued from this point. A squib for our sportsmen to cogitate over : "Fifteen bushels of wild rice sown on the ponds in the vicinity of Erie two years ago have grown and flourished, attracting thous— ands of birds, large and small, and furnishing sportsmen ample amusement." The revivals at the First and West Bun- tingdon Methodist churches are still in opera tion with unabated success, there being quite a number forward at the altar, at this writing. On Sunday, at both places, a number of per sons were taken in on probation. It has been decided by cur young men to have a fantastic parade on the morning of the 21st inst., and all those who wish to partici— pate are requested to get their "caliker gowns" ready, and hie themselves to Jack McCahan's barn "early in the morning" of that day. The citizens of Altoona held a meeting on Monday night, at the call of the Mayor, to make arrangements for the raising of money and provisions for the relief of the people of Ireland. Committees for each ward were ap pointed to solicit subscriptions for provisions. An exchange says, to ascertain the length of a day and night multiply the Hour at which the sun rises by two ; the result will be the length of the night. Multipl;• the hour at which the sun sets by two, and the resul t will be the length of the day. Simple enough. A number of our lads and lassies. on Friday night went to a Mr. Cochrane's, about twelve miles distant from town. It was a gay and festive party. The refreshments were cakes, apples and cider. Music. Balance all ; swing your ponies ! Borne, four o'clock in the morning. Dr J. A. Roller, of Ilollidaysburz, who occasionally visits our town, is an aspiraul !Ur Legislative honors. From what we know of the Dr. personally, and of his Republicanism, be would make a sound member, and the Republicans of Blair cannot do better than nominate and elect him. Recently in Philadelphia Judge Thayer in delivering an opinion um a ease before him, disposed of an interesting point of law, wherein he declared that a seller of property who has parted with his title papers has no lien on that property, for a balance of unpaid pur chase money, either in law or equity. Sherman Quackenbush, the boy who ran away from his home in New York State, and got as far as this town and put up at the Miller House for several days last week, was taken home by his father on Friday morning. The father says the boy became :nfatuate.l with the reading of flashy newspapers, which related the adventures of runaway boys, and thought he would see how the thing would work for himself, but the farther he got away from home the more homesick lie became.— This is a warning to the young novel reader. Parents see what your boys read. Pr“fessor Elliott, the phrenoMe:lst, who spent a short time in our town last fall, whilst p;ts , ing the Si-perintentient's building , in Al tuoutt on Friday mnrninfr, IS struck by a piece of ice wh , ch fell from the roof, sald as he glanc , . , l up to ,ce where it ea me from, another :Hid struck him iu the face.

As the old l,av passel the 7:14 inn e i•tooe in jonr.,ey his chances of iccovery :lie nut ihe most }Littering. Ir meeting held by oor Borough dads on Fridny evening, 'tis said woa.a lively one.— Aner hour or two of speech talking, some of :he members picked up their hats and left in haste, leaving not enough for it quorum, so the council had to adjourn without finishing up the business they were at. The new steam lire engine was the trouble. The quality of ti.e ice stored away Friday and Saturday is not first class, beipg only about four inches thick with about an inch of snow on top. That hauled on Monday was a little better, being about six inches with no snow topping it oil, the cold wave of Sunday night doing the right thing by those who had to wait until the fore part of this week. Tilt! Lewigtown Gazette says: "The Snyder (7ounty Tribune is right. We confounded another article in another paper with the reference made by the Tribune. You don't ca:ch us calling the Huntingdon JOURNAL anything else than a Republican brick of silver purity." All right, "my covey," you struck the head of the nail fair that time. Duncannon, Perry county, was visited on the morning of the 31 inst., by a severe con— flagration, in which fire buildings, including four stores were consumed. The fire is attributed to the band of au incendiary. Loss shout $lO,OOO, with an insurance of $6,600. This is the third time within the past eighteen mouths that this town has been fire stricken. The accumulation of soot in chimneys is *a great nuisance, and may be remedied by mix ing considerable salt with th• mortar with winch the bricks composing the chimdey are laid. The salt acts by absorbing moisture whenever it is damp and rainy, and the soot, becoming wet and heavy, falls into the fire below This is an English idea, and is said to give very satisfactory results. $BO was the amount subscribed by the ladies of the Presbyterian church Aid Society, which met at the residence of Col. Wm. Dor ris, on Thursday ereninglast, toward liquida ting the debt on their church edifice. there after the Society will meet once a week, and will employ the time in sewing and making other arrangements for the liquidation of the whole debt. May they be successful. Murphy, he of temperance fame, commenced a series of meetings, to continue for one week, in the Mountain city ou Sunday night. May he have the influence, that he is credited with, over the bibulously inclined of that bailiwick. In this connection we will state that Mr. Mur phy was quite successful in Johnstown, so much so that he will revisit that town on the 23d iust., and hold a two weeks' meeting. The reporter of the Altoona Sun, the other morning, was shown a relic of• the fall of Vicksburg, in the shape of a newspaper— Vicksburg Daily Citizen—printed on one side of a piece of yellow wall paper. Its editor's name was Swords, and from the way he eulo gizes on mule meat and fricassed kitten, he must have luxuriated on these dainties before the doomed city fell into the hands of the Union Army. 11ev. A. K. Whitmer, formerly a pastor of a a reformed church in Altoona, but now of Miftlinburg, Union county, created a sensation among his members a few Sundays ago by announcing that "any member who signed a petition asking that a license be granted any person to sell liquor would hereafter be ex csuded from communion, and would not be allowed to hold office, and would nut be al lowed to vote in the church." Right. Murphy, the temperance lecturer, takes the ground that the •liquor dealers are not heart less wretches, but men who would, it they saw the injury they worked, desist from their l,usi ness." They can see examples of their work done on our streets nearly every day in the week, and besides this can read of the crimes done by rum in our whole country. What more do they want to maks "them desist from their business," if they are men, we would ask? Two boys of West Providence township, Bedfurd county, named Armstrong and Leon ard, between whom there has existed bad feeling for some time, met on Tuesday two weeks ago, and determined to fight the grudge out with their fists. when Leonard was stabbed in the abdomen with a pen knife by Arm strong. It is more than likely that Leonard will die. Armstrong claims that the cutting was done in self-defense, as Leonardes older, being 16, and larger in build. What disposi tion was made with Armstrong is not stated. The Lewistown Gazette says a newly married couple of Belleville, who were united in Huntingdon on Thursday last, returned the next day, accompaitied by a band of fantastics on horseback, who made it their business to meet the bridal party about half a mileoutside of the village. The speed of the married couple was regulated by means of a rope stretched across the road and held at each end by one of the gallant crew. This manner of amusement is of course regarded by a few individuals as good fun, but the majority of people think it not the most pleasant way to receive a married pair. We have quite a number of out-of-the coenty subscribers who are in arrears for their subscription. As we have postage to pay on all papers that go outside the county, we hope they will pay up at once. Examine the tab on your paper, friend, and you will see how your account stands with us. 'Unless this matter is attended to we will be com pelled to stop sending the paper, for we can not afford to send it for nothing and pay the postage too. Let us hear from you gentlemen, without further delay, if you desire "the handsomest and best paper in the county" to make its weekly visit to your firesides. In our hurry last week we overlooked the fact that Deputy Revenue Collector Frank %V. Stewart and Constable Bathurst, of this place, made a raid upon an illicit distillery in the house of John McComb, near Mapleton, and succeeded in gobbling pp the still worm and other machinery, together with a lot of high wines, whiskey and magi'. The still, was found in the cellar, and it was in order for another distillation, the mash being prepared. Mrs. Eliza Crowley, the daughter of McComb, was the only person in the house at the time, and not knowing the officers nor their mission, admitted them, and they effected the capture without any trouble. The Bedford County Press man says he was shown the other day, by a citizen of Everett, an old musty pocket book of the "wallet" kind, which was found among the papers of an old resident, long deceased. The book contained about $650 of defunct paper money—broken and counterfeit currency, among which are s4lr of scrip issued by the Chesapeake and OA° Canal Company in 1840, and a number of broken banks, representing the States of Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Penn sylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and Ohio. Among the counterfeits, of which there is quite a number, is a $lO bill on the United States bank at Philadelphia, with the signa ture of N. Biddle. The Press man further adds, "'taken all together, this old pocket hook, full of worthless paper money, taken at its face value by a merchant of more than or dinary business capacity in his day, furnishes a suggestive argument in favor of our present paper money." Jacob Mutaper, at the late term of the Blair County Quarter Sessions, was sentenced to one year's imprisonment to the penitentiary, for carrying concealed. deadly weapons. We give this item as a warning to a number of our "short-haired" chaps, as to what they may c'• Levi if taken Lefore His Honor, Judge Dean, on the same charge. The Altoona Tribune makes the following truthful remarks of the person who carries concealed weapons : 'We have long siuce passed the meridian of life, and have seen a good part of this country; have been in great crowds and dangerous localities, yet we have never found an instance where the occasion called for the use of a deadly weapon. The person who carries a revolver is generally a coward—unless his journey or business carries him into a danger ous place—for he relies upon it for the pur pose of extricating himself from trouble of his own provoking. He lacks true courage, and falls back upon the revolver for that which nature has endowed him, or which an evil temper or whisky has robbed him. If a man is quarrelsome he is the last person in the world who should carry a revolver; if he is peaceably disposed and sober he needs no such instrument for his defense, and if he is assaulted unjustly the law wilt amply vindi cate him." In Altoona, about ten n'cloPk. Sunday night, Timings Hopkins, a lad of 17 years, came bopp:ug into hie mother' , room with a new born Ktbe in his arms. IL ems that when Ire was about entering Ihe I,c• heard a peculiar 116i3e, and on looliizic aronrol he saw a bundle on the porch floor, which he picked up and ou examination found that it conta , ned a male infant not more than two days old,.nearly frozen death. not havinv, a Stift!' clothing on vr:I.;) frit who kt widaw, tita7.,!e of the wa:t, and after giving it some fowl, kept np a go as you please walk for nearly three hours to keep it front crying, as it had very healthy lungs and was determined to use them, when it finally fell asleep. Titers are no m irks of any kind, either on the child or the quilt, by which a clue can he gut to tell where the waif came from. A servant girl in the employ of a near neighbor saw a man and woman walking up and down the street several times, and it. is supposed that these are the cruel parents that deserted the cliii i. tind it is fur Cher believed that they do nut belong to AI toona front their actions, and the affair will probably remain enveloped in mystery. For the present Airs. 11. huts derided to take care of the little one until some responsible person will adopt it, or the proper authorities take charge of it. Perhaps it will turn out another "Elsie Viola" case, only the llama will be a masculine one. AUDITOR GENERAL 4 (.11I:LL A:^.D COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.-Auditor Schell in pursuance of law, a short time issued a letter of instruciions to county com missioners in regard to tile assessment and collection of state taxes. We quote all he has said on the subject, as follows, to wit : , T 0 the Commissioners of the Several Counties of the Commonwealth : "GENTLEMEN—In pursuance of section 7 of the act of 22d April, 1846, (I'. L. 1846, p. 4880 making it the duty of the auditor general "to make out and transmit to the commissioners of the several counties in this state forms of statements * * * and all instrue tions necessary to carrying the laws, relating to the collection of state taxes, into uniform effect throughout the state," I have the honor to submit to you a statement of the property and things taxable for state purposes under the laws, and the forms of us,esstuent of the same. I deem it to he my dety to call the attea tion of all county commissiouers, and town ship assessors, to the several duties relating to taxation enjoined upon them respectively by law. Heretofore the assessments of per sonal property, especially moneys at interest, in many of the counties have beeu very care lessly and negligently made. Nearly all of the reluirements of the law have been disre— garded. It may be safely estimated that at least one half of the moneys at interest sub ject to taxation for state purposes have not been reached by the assessors. This should not be so. The policy of the law taxing money capital is not to be taken into consul eration. The law itself is imperative. It imposes a state tax of four mills out every dollar of the value "of all moneyed capital in the hands of individual citizens of the state." It makes it the duty of the commissioners of the several counties to "require the (town ship) assessors to ascertain the amount, description and value." .1 the property taxa ble for state purposes. It makes it the duty of assessors to "require it every taxable in his district to furnish a statcreent in writing, or partly written and partly printed, showhig the aggregate amount of money due and owing by solvent debtors to such taxable," etc. It is hoped that the commissioners will refuse to accept any assessment which, upon examination, proves to be deficient, or not in accordance with the requiremerts of the law. and that such defective assessment shall be returned to the assessor tOr correction. It is the determination of this departtneut, that the laws relative to taxation foe state purposes, shall be enforced." This letter was approved by the members of the sinking fund commission, and board of public accounts, Attorney General Palmer, Secretary M. S. Qnay and State Treasurer Noyes. There is not one word in this letter in re— gard to raising the valuation of real estate. It is not taxable for state purposes, therefore the State officers could have no motive to have the valuation raised. If the law taxing money at interest is odious and unjust, should be repealed, but the accounting officers cannot be held responsible fbr its enforce went. It is their duty under their oaths of office to have the revenue laws enforced.— Beciford Gazelle. WHAT'S THE MATTER, ?-1. 1 slnie .inte past complaint have reached us from different sections of the county concerning the non arrival or the JOURNAL, and up to this time time we have refrained front sitying anything about it, but the thing is becoming of such frequent occurrence that we deem it our duty to speak of it. On Saturday evening we re ceived a postal card iwp.trting to us the fol lowing information : "JOURNAL, Monitor and Local ..Veurl have failed to put in an appearance at this office this week. 'Yours, "Map!eton, Pa. , Jan. 7, 1860, The Mapleton package, together with the remainderof the Eastern mail, was taken to the postoffice in Huntingdon on Friday morning and should have reached its destination the same day. Where the fault is we are not pre pared to say, but that there is some care less or incompetent person in the service is evident from these frequent and annovinz failures of the papers to reach their destina tion. We make this statement in justice to ourself so that our patrons will net hold us responsible for the negligence of Uncle Sam's public servants. A. line from Mr. Ilex, on Mon day, informs us that the packwe of JOURNALS reached Mapleton on &It uniuy night. We do hope that more care will be taken by those whose business it is to see to the safe transit of the mails, and that our readers hereafter will have no cause of complaint. TOWNSHIP OFFIC LI S When t;te%r Terms Begin and End.— rite terms of all "township" officers, excepting school directors and justices of the peace, at prsent commence on the first Monday in A pri;. 'Phis is changed by au act of the Legislature, approved June 4, 1879, the first and most iiiiliortant section of which is as follows : SECTION 1. That the ter:u of °Mee of every township officer hereafter elected, whin term of office would, under existin4 lallf3, expire on the first Monday of April of any year, shall elpire on the first Monday of .:arch next p•eceding said Monday of April; and the terns of the successors of such township officers eh •ir begin on the first Monday of March, and sh 1.11 continaa for the period now fixed for the duration thereof by exist ing laws. According to the provisions of this act, the terms of "township" officers elected on the 17th of February, 1880, will end on the first Monday of March, 1881—that is, such officers elected this year, excepting school directors and justices of the peace, will be chosen only for a term of eleven mouths. Os and after 1881, the terms of all such township offl.:ers will commence and end on the first Moadai in March of each year. LETTER, Box WANTEIL—The business men of this borough have long felt the need ufa lock-box, at the railroad depot, into which they could drop their letters, when in that locality, without taking the time and trouble to go to the post offiee fir tit it purpose. Et' a box were put up there it would be a great benefit to a large majori!y of our eit;zeos, and at the same time save the depot employes, and our old friend, Isaac Fisher, a great deal of annoyance by persons reque:iiing theta to mail letters for them. Upon the arrival of each train carrying a mail th.. , route agent could unlock the box and take from it any mail matter that it may contain. We understand that a box of this kind was sent to Bedford, the other day, to be put up :it the depot iu that piece, and if a staid old town like Bed ford can have these mail facilities we can't see why our town should not be similarly favored. Let us have a letter-box at the depot on sight. LECTURE.—The leeturo poirtion of our people will be plc:Ise: 1 . to learn that they will have an opportunity to hear the Rev. Allred J. Barrow deliver his lecture on "•West minister Abbey," in the Court house, in this place, on Monday evening next, Feb. 16th. Mr. Barrow is a lecturer of considerable note, and in addition to the rich literary treat in store for those who go to hear him, they at the same time will be contributing towards a worthy object, as the proceeds of this lecture are fur the benefit of :it. John's Episcopal Church, in this place. The price of admission has been fixed at the low sum oftwenty—five cents, which should insure a crowded house for the Reverend gentleman.

BEWARE OF lIAItD MONEY.--A. 7to:i detfuLly well executed bogus half eagle or lire dollar 'gold piece has just been put in circula tion here and in other cities and towns. The officers of the United States Mint in this city inform us that it is by far the best counterfeit half eagle that ever came under their observt lion, and some of them have examined nut a few. The genuine live dollar gold piece weighs Ingrains ; the spurious coin to which we have referred, when carefully tested at the mint showed a weight of 127)2 grains—l. grains light by the most delicately adjusted scales. Therefore, the lightness of weight is not likely to be detected:by the general public. To make the matter worse, the coating ofgold on the imitation coin is thick enough to resist the tests of the acids usually employed for the purpose. A number of these pieces have passed through the hands of very expert tel lers in our city baukA. A little abrasion produced by use is likely to wear away thc outer coating of gold and tender detection more easy. For the present we can only say beware of receiving too many brand new and glittering half eagles.—Pctsrson's Counterfeit Detector. Tool HACLIE —(1) To cure toothache so that it will never ache again, take a crumb of opium as large as a small pea, dissolved in half a teaspoonful of spirits of turpentine, put in the hollow of the tooth. It will not stop the pain at once, but, if well applied, will soon cause it never to trouble again. (2.) Ttirkish myrrh diluted in water—at first a teaspoonful to a tumbler and gradually strengthened— and used as a wash four or five times a day, will generally give relief. (3) A solution of bicarbonate of soda, in the proportion of half a drachm to an ounce of water, held in the mouth, is said to be an instant cure fur tooth ache. (4.) Nervous toothache may be cured at once by the application of salpetre made very fine and applied on cotton batting to t;e affected tooth.—Ex.

ElnTint vestii , jet I eude:ivored to, and I think to a certain extent at least succeeded, ill tra cirg, it to its primary cause, that of had home t; . aining and parental neglect. It needs no argumeot to prove this, a- it may be said to be a ,eit•evh.lent ha?t. “A.l id e brain is the wor:;shop," anti "Satan finds some liCHci:ief still for idle hands to do," are trite s;iyinFs, lint no less truthful on that ne- Cf111:1;. Children, whether boys or girls, that ~:•e permitted to ran the streets in idleness and after ni?,htfall are being educated for crimi nals, and the parents who are thus criminally teg , ectful of their offspring are instrumental in preparing them for a future course of crime tel diszrace, and digging fur them a grave of i!,lUnty and ruin. And yet in this State of free schools, churches, and Sabbath schools, re tu-d ty, according to the most au- statistics. between fifteen and twenty children out of the schools, beyond ::•:. of p:,rontal restraint, or of any mor :.: !I!:ence, oo Coe streets, idle and vicious, gr:iduating Po. criminals and p:tuper . toe more contagions than small-pox, and ,treion continues to roll on, ever lie broader and deeper, till crime and ism are becoming hereditary, following roi.i one generation to another. Lyman •!;tt. of the State Public School for Ctiiitlren, Michigan, in his annual tin thi3 subject : f•:= u l p . A rAnarkabie instance on record, I 11,.1:1 ;'!i do 1,:5.3 there nre many similar ones, s;lon iwr what the complete results of a neg -1,ct,,,-; chilillio•A are, is given by Mr. Dogdale ig his history of the Juke family. In this fam ily, running through six generations, there 206 rimpers, 76 criminAls and 128 pros s. All of these were reared in neglect and sa,,,nadtd with had influences from early child /0;0. 'Mr. Bonneville de Marsangy, a distin jurist, of France, and an associate intlabtfr of the parliamentary commission on relc•rm, and whose observation and ex perivrir,3 eutite him to speak as an authority, says: qt is this wretched, ignorant, neglected infincy which at a later period will comttitute the entire body of criminals. StitCy the an t:iil~P tecAent life of adult criminals and you will fiqd that, with the greater part of them. the moral perversity which has caused their rum, slate.; from early childhood.' " And again, "Official reports furnished the Secretary of the London Prison Congress, by wardens of penitentiaries and other officials, ;lie the following. as She principal causes of cr:ntc i,l their several countries : In Bavaria, tee; ed education anti idegltimacy. lu Nur neglected education and want of good Lome lefluenre. In Russia, want of e:erneutioy .trios. Li Netherlands, want of eilueatioi and seeoud marriages, which embitter the po s;t;on of the children of the first marriage, and deprive them of the salutary influences of home life. In Sweden, want of proper care iu youth and bad company. In Switzerland, aefective education and abnormal family in fluences. hi the United States, orphauag,e, idleness and want of family government, wretch ed home, life or want of home life. Other causes were assigned, such as intemperance, which, though often the immediate cause of crime, u,ualy itself the result of bad influences in early life." Thus it will be seen that the primary cause, and great leading influence in the propaga tioo of clime, is the want of proper hots' training and the abandonment of parental control. It is thus that the parents and guard ians of the youth of this eonntry are sowing to the winds, and as certainty as effect is fut.- lowcd by cause we will reap to the whirl winds in the near harvest of crime, alreadf IffieAladowed by the revolting and startling retook furnished us in the daily press. Another cause is found in the indifference of our citizens, and the consequent lack of a nealthy public sentiment ou the subject. The pu'pit is comparatively silent on the subject, sod the press is entirely too modest to publish the names of the blackguards who habitually disturb the peace of the community by env. giug is drunken street rows, "on account of their respectable parentage," or for some other like frivolous reason. In fact the disposition in many instances, seems to be, on the part of the so-called Christian public, to encourage apologize for, rather than discourage and ii Nionuee lawlessness sad immorality. During the raiiroad riots of 1877, strange as it may dp i lellr, I heard men, members of churches, p,ire , sing Christianity, on the streets pultiicly their approbation of CitUt11111117: 4 111, uhce..aliartsm, robbery and murder, on life gr011ti•I that certain corporations were wrong,- if.;.: their employes by exacting from them an iii,aplut of labor in excess of the compensation rec,f,ved. It is but a few months since a pub ic ex,..fisttre of sonie disrgustinzly shameful condacz. drunkenness, profanity, obscenity, . . . . oil Sabbath desecration on a railrord train returning flona camp meeting, brought down a tut rent of invective on the head of your cur respondent and yourself, not only from au in terested corporation but from the so-called Ciristian Ministry, and the attempt to hold up such conduct to public contempt was de nounced us —infamous" by those over pious and very amiable self-constituted censors. Of course in neither of these cases would any one takeing the trouble to think for a moment, sup pose there was a very large element of Chris tianity or even of good citizenship manifest ei4 but look at the influence it exerts on the unthinking masses. If it be true that "the Christian is the highest style of man," then the world has the right to expect of him an exemplary life. Every Christian should at !easi be a good citizen, and every citizen is to the powers that be," which are ~o ,4laiiied of Cod," so that Christianity sad good citizenship are inseparable, and to be a citizen of a government lice ours implies more than is often imag;ineil. But there are times and occasions I vhen mere moralizing is tame and commonplace. What we want now is a remedy fur this grow ing evil, in the shape of action, prompt, vig emus amid effective. What are some of the remedies which might be successfully applied in such cases Y First, work. Compulsory labor has a most sidulary effect in reforming juvenile offenders, and hence our reformatory institutions, in large cities have been product i•,e of immense good is this direction. A workhouse, which is now authorized by law in every county, would be a must excellent institution. The drunken blackguards whose nocturnal revels disturb the slumbersof peace l citizens and spread alarm and terror throughout the neighborhood, on being air rested will now, in default of paying a fine, go to jAil, to be kept a short time in idleness at the expense of the tax-payers of the county, but let it be understood that the penalty, in case of such default, would be from thirty to ninety days in the workhouse, where they would be compelled to earn their living and make amends to society to some extent, for the injury they have done it, and you would be astonished at the amount of reformation it would produce, for if there is anything tht•.t these gentry abhor it is to be compelled to work. But in the absence .f these remedies there is another which is always available, very cheap and very effective, and one which is at ad tunes in easy reach, requiring only a little thought, a littie effort, and the injection of a little backbone into the citizens of the town or community thus afflicted. It ie based upon tile well recognized principle that every good citizen of a government like ours is by virtue of that citizenship a police officer and bound by the duty he owes to the government and to society to see that the laws of the country are duly executed. Nu citizen can be an idle spec tator of any breeee of the peace without be e:en:us a pertielpant in the eyes of the law, &eel it is the right as well as the duty of every citizen to protect not only his life and prop eriy but the good name and reputation of the wive where he lives, all of which is essential to the sa.ety and wed being of society. And this eneeeets the formation of a CITIZENS' Vi(w..t.:“.71; COMMITTEE. or Secret Police, an or eeeizetiou very easily effected provided, us is aiwaye supposed to be the case, that the law *bidiny element is in the a,eendency, because it' otherwise it would be better fur all such to alialeien the place to the tender mercies of rowdyism at once, and stand as far from it as Let did from Sodom in her evil day. Let such an as , ociatioa be formed by the citizens, and its organization so perfected that at any time. on a given sleeted, a sufficient force of able bodied men could be summoned to the spot, prepared if necessary to do some rough work, to suppress ad disturbance and take prompt clinree of all offenders, and it would be as tonisitieg to see how soon all such disturban ces wentd cease. The details of such an or ganization need net be in the least compli rated. It would simply be an association for the preservation of peace and order, and the welfare of society, properly officered. with a constitution and by-laws, a property holding or citizenship qualification to membership, with perhaps a small initiation fee to meet any contingent expeuses, and the oath of in itiation the same as that administered to exra policemen. Its working machinery, in order to be effective would have to be conducted entirely in secret, and its signs, passwords and signals known only to the initiated, but let it be such as to summons quietly and peaceably to the seene of disorder a sufficient force to overawe, and if need be to forceably prevent any manifestation of violence, and in doing so not perhaps to take life, but not to stop short of a broken head or two if neces sary-, and the lesson would scarcely need t' , be repeated. Cowardice is an inseparabl e tlenteut of rowdyism, and there wimhl be few bands of ruf f ians congregated together :1 cer tain cf being rough:y handled by superior numbers. There would be very few "gut gatigs" if it were once understood that in all probability some "gutting'' would be done in return. The crowds of blackguards nightly assembled on the street rorriers, in front of the churches and other public places, the an noyance of decency and disgrace to the town, are only there by the stiffen:awe of our citi zees, and the very moment that a sufficient amount of nerve is displayed on the part of citizens, unitedly to demand it, the annoy ance will cease, but so long as it is quietly submitted to and tolerated, so long will the spirit of mobocracy continue to grow more insolent and defiant, until finally it will be come unmanageable. The citizen is justifiable in the use of any means in the enforcement of the laws. The welfare of society, the safety of life and the protection of property all de wand it. A mob-cursed town will be shun ned by capital and enterprise, the spirit of imrovetnent will languish, property will deteriorate in va'ue, and the disastrous results will be felt in the prostration of busitu , s and the languishing condition of every branch or industry, a state of affairs which we have no right to submit to if it can be avoided as I think it can and will be whenever our citizens will come up ii , :itedly to the full measure of their duty. The time is -oming from all ap pearances when the lawless and law abiding olements of the country must measure their strength in a cottest for the mastery, and t to; sooner we organize for that contest the bet ter. At all events it seems to me that the experiment is worthy of a trial, and if there is any good reason why it should not be suc.essful or any difficulty in the way of its execution, I should like to hear it, Rs it is certainly a fair and legitimate subject for discussion.
