Trii office•brokers among the Repre sentatiies at Washington will receive a severe cheek if the bill introduced by Senator Trumbull becomes a law. This bill makes it a tUisdetheandr for any .

The bartering of these fa- vors it is known, often hinds influential men and politicians in their future course, and to a great degree helps to keep up the ..:Orrupt agairist which the peo- ple'have been fighting. It is right and courteous fur the executive or appointing power to consult with the representatives, but the latter should not forget their du ties and become office brokers. The Reading Boom and. Library. Elsewhere'la to day's SPY will befound an appeal to the citizens of Columbia in reference to the establi.hmeut of a libra ry and free reading room. The urgent necessity of this move is felt by all. Since writing the appeal, influential citizens have expressed their willinguess to en courage the project with all the means in their power, and from the present indica tion we think it will be successful. The movemeqteeeds only the cordial support of all=,publie-spirited, philanthropic men and "women. We know that there is a wariri symphatby for such an institution, and if the initiatory stepS be but taken, the.desired end • will he attained. We suggest that a public meeting be called, and an organization effected which will be ready to go to work with whatever means may placed at their disposal.

Under Bch circumstances it follows as by a mechanical law, that the department can be established. The ad vantage of it, it is idle to recapitulate. All who have examined the matter, know' that the deciding advantage that Massa- r~~ - .Editor chusetts, Connecticut and New York COM_ panics have over those of Pennsylvania, both as regards business in this State and in other States, consists in the fact that the States whera they are incorporated have Insurance departments by whose re ports the public can distinguish good com panies from bad ones. Shall we continue this injurious discrimination in favor of foreign against home companies, by refus ing to erect an Insurance department? NVe certainly stall continue this discrimi nation unless the Insurance companies themselves agitate for the department. If they don't, why the people can stand it—by insuring in eastern companies. MA.T. PANGmax, the gifted stump era tor,who delighted Columbia audiences dur ing the late Presidential campaign, has assumed the cause of woman's rights, and through the columns of his paper, the Jer sey City Journal speaks thus : We pre sume that most of our• readers will be sur prised to learn, that the women of New Jersey are living under a system of laws, which in many respects are grossly unjust and oppresive. In this State, by marry ing, a woman ceases to have almost the semblances even of existence. She may be hanged for murder or imprisoned for other offences but the legal recotruition of her as a hum in being is limited to this class of cases. All that she is, and all that she has bepome legally her husband's. She can have no guardianship of her children ; all her personal -property be lotm.s to her husband, and he can dispose of every particle of it without her consent and also of all her personal earnings. a woman possessing a fortune in real es tate marries and dies, the whole of the property becomes absolutely her hus baud's. She may make a will but it will amount to nothing in law. Is it an• won der thtit'stinie of the women of New Jer sey desire the privilege of voting? Would the laws remain as they are, if the women had that privilege ? "IN nothing has President Grant's ad ministration done better than by teaching the youmg men of the nation that they should rely upon l atemselves and not upon office. That is the eloquent lesson of his official integrity, retrenchment, and econ omy. When - Secretary Cox says he can do the work of the Interior Department with a force one-third less. than is now employ ed—wheu Secretary Belknap repoirts the the efficers of the Freedmen's Bureau have been cut down from nine hundred and one to one hundred and fifty one— that the number of civilians hired by the War Department has been reduced from nine thousand to foul: thousand—that an army of nearly a million has been brought down to less titan fifty thousand—When Secretary Boutwell's plans are even stern er ihr the lessening of expenses—and when the Navy and Post Office Departments complete the surprising - record by facts and figures not less astounding—we gath er more than the fruits of a Republican Administration. We realize that office is no longer a reward fur party service, and that there are other roads to fame and foltune than the paths of patronage. Opening ofthe:Ecumenical Council. ROME, Dec. S.—The Ecumenical Coun cil was opened to day by the Pope. The weather was unfavorablo, rain failing at intervals, but enormous crowds filled the Vatican and lined the streets through which the members of the Council passed. The Pope, followed by seven hundred Bis hops,proceeded to the hall of the Coun cil amid the ringing of bells and the,thun dering of cannon from the forts of St. An gelo and Mount Aventine. The Holy Father was in fine health.. The galleries of the ball of the council were occupied by the Sovereigns and Princes now in Rome, by the members of the Corps Di p lowatique and other notables., The 'cer emonies excelled in grandeur and magni ficence any that have taken place in Rome within the" present century. No power has a special representative at the (Ecumenical Council. .. - TuE has come up very early before the ecu menical Cuuncil at Rome. What may be the result of their deliberntion we know not, but. the French Government is very decided uponthe subject, and has notified the • Council that • the declatution of the infallibility of the Pope, is religiously in opportune, and that politically it nullifies the Concordat and releases France from her obligations to the 41oly . See.. Besides thiS, the majority of the French Bishops as well as the . liberal Bishops of Germany are opposed to the doctrine of infallibility. The Pope it is said ie somewhat alarmed, and an • adjournment for: a short time has been, effected, to allow time for special consultation.'

Each party claims that the other is bent on insidiously destroying this.bul work of..Arnerican liberty. The men, who argue in favor of retaining the Bible read ing insist that those who to exclude it are only aiming to get up a commotion that will break up the whole school sys tem; while those in favor of excluding the Bible claim that they are attempting to place the common school system on an unseetarian basis, and thus insure its per petuity, and on the other hand insist that the attempt of opponents to make the system a Protestant institution will end in its speedy destruction. The decision, Whatever it may be, will be a weighty precedent and exercise a far-reaehing in fluence over the destinies of popular ed ucation in this country. "Independent'' Journalism:. The Warren jilitgunderstands this sub ject, and very sensibly exposes a popular fallacy, thus : We know it is common for "indepen dent" papers to arrogate to themselves superior honesty and virtue. We like this self complacency. If man bloweth not his own horn it may ILA be blown. But our observation is that these papers tura more short corners, support more mean men for oflice, go into. more small holes, dive deeper and come up dirtier, than any equeal number of partisan pa pers in the land. Instead of representing a large party with well defined principals' and purposes, they 'too often represent scheming individuals and disorganizing cliques. Instead of advocating a princi ple firm as the bills, they arc governed by a policy as fickle as the changing fi-tune of men.

Liver Complaint and Dyspepela, if taken „siecording to directions. They are all 'three to be taken lathe name time. They cleanse thostornach, relax the liver, and put it to work; then the appetite becomes good; the food digests And makes good blood; the patient begins to'grow in flesh; the dis eased matter ripens In the lungs, and the patient • outgrows the disease and gets- well.' This is the only way to cure consumption. o these three medielnee Dr.' L. 11. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes, his unrivalled *meccas In the treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul mottle Syrup ripens the morbid matter In the limes, nature throws it olf by an easy expectoration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight cough will throw it off, and the patient bar rest rind tile lungs begin to heal. . To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver. no that the Puhrionle Syrup and the food will make good blood. Selimick's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re moving all obstruction& relax the ducts of the gall bladder., the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved the stools will show what the Pills can do; .nothing has over been invented except calomel (a deadly poison which Is very dangerous to use ex cept will, great care), that will unlock a gall-bladder cud start the secretions of the liver like Scheuelc's Mandrake Pills. Liver Complaint Is o ire of the most prominent causes of Consumption. Schenck's Seaweed Tonic Is a gentle stimulant and alterative and the salmi' in the Sesireed, which this prescription is made of, tuisistit the etotimell to throw out the ;metric juice, to dissolve the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, end it, is made into good blood without fermeetation or souring lu the stomach. The great reason why'physiclans do not cure con sumption in, they try to 'do too much •. they give -medicine to atop the cough, to stop chills, to stop iglu.sweata..bectic Kers er, mouthy so doing they, de. "range the whole digeetive powers, locking up the se "O'retions. and eventually the patient "sinks and dies. Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, &satinet try to_stop , a cough, night meaty., chills or fever. Remove tire cause, and they will all glop of their own accord.. NO 'one can he cured of Consumption, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh,' Canker, Ulcerated Throat, un less the liver And stomach are made healthy. .. If a person has consumption, of course the lungs are In nom* way diseased,either tubercles, absceseas, bronchial irritation; pleura adhesion, Or zits lungs are a moss of inflammation and fast decAying; in much cases what.trunlabe decal It net only the lungs that are wastiug, but it is the whole body. The stomach amid - &erne's . / ilost their power to ifitdr.e • blood our of'food. - "Now the only - h Iran co 'is' to take, Selienek's three medicines - ,which -.wi11.; bring up - a tone to the stomach. the patient will ~begin to want food, it will digest easily and mike good blood; theft the patient begins( to gabs in flesh, and. wa'verrn the body begi no to grow,tho lunge cohlmence to heal up and the patient gets fleetly and' cell. This is the on ip way to cure connomption., When there is uo lung jihmase,,and only Liver Complaint. and Dyspepsia, Rellenek's Seaweed Tonle and Mandrake Pills are ',intment. without the Put motile Syrup.'
