Resoleed. That in the preparation of a.
bill for the modification , or existing tariff

,Careist on the Auditors , Report.
?"-Thelnguirer after calling the Auditors'
xeport'the anneal growl of Col. Shoch,
titeieteS 'nearly two columns to prove that
it neans nothing, and that it is merely
the - effusion of a man with strong
preju
dices:tiodtweak intellect. If Maj. 'Greist
•niCans that Col. Shoch and his associates
have strong prejudices against "thugger
ry". and a weakness . for exposiageorrup
7iericrie agree iritl7` him. The laborious
article of the Iliguirer is mainly directed'
against that portion of the report which
strikes at prison
.abuscs, and comes to the
defence — of : Mr. •Senseidd in this-""that it
requires mrare-combination -of. rather de
sirable qualities ;to , make- , a good prison -
keeper." -.-.Nosi , this is , refreshing indeed,
in view. of. - the fact that. Mr. Senserdg
with his "desirable qualities," netted ac
cording to the Auditora'• unimpeachable
testimony, nearly $7000.00 dirring one
year. The Inquirer, as well as any intel
ligent citizen khows that there should ho
no office in:tbe county, to Which there is
so little responsibility attached as that of
the 'prison keeper, which should net for
its incumbent the princely - sum of nearly
$7000.00 annually. No one officer should
be enriched nt the expense•of the county
and its tax-payers. The Inquirer, pre
tending toideprecate the recent "bolt" in
tire legistature, as haVing a tendency to
destroy Party discipline; and to weaken
it against.the combinations of democracy,
ought consistently with its professions ad
vocate ecouornyand retrenchment at home.
But it fails to do this, and failing marks
its sympathy with corruption.
In defence of .its position it instances
Several counties, among them York, - which ..
pay even higher rates for maintaining
prisoners than Lancaster. This is hoW
ever no justification. The York , True
Demoercit proteits against the,extortionate
rate now paid by that comity for prisoners;
an& suggests that it ' would' be better to
have the prisoners Served, from some first-,
class restaurant; as well they could be,' for
$3.50 per-week, the price now- paid. This
attempt -to b•rlster. up .Sensenig and his
extravagancereminds us •6f the fable 'of
the .frog=it may be fun for the .Tnquirer,
but it is death for the people.
The futile attempt 'of the "ring" to
justify mallidininistration.of public affairs
reveals its weak ness. Let u4lake 'advan
tage. of this weakness, and accomplish by
legislation,whatwe•have, failed to obtain by
persistent entreaty. , Make the office of
prison keeper' elective,' require the • pub
lication, of monthly. statements• of-receipts
and expenditiires, in all - the papers of the
county, and. offer:such a:competent salary.
as Iwill iiisare..serviceil. of% honest- and• tin-
selfish officials. If our legislators would
demand good reasons fur such change, we
refer them to the able report of Col.'Shoch
.and - his associates-in the board or auditors.
The Inquirer can serve the party in no
better way-than in advocating such a
meaSure. --ciThe "ring", which 'has , so long
controlled this) branch of our county af
fairs, has found the prison department a
rich source of revenue. • Now let the peo
ple >•enjoy thi- !benefits 'of 'its-honest and

- Geary's veto of the Metropolitan Police
bill is . an admirable document; and we
consider it. ninven , more importance than
his military victories. -
,Far ',away in fu
turity,4byee,or. four years hence, people
will forget his daring deeds orr.Lociknut
Mountain and in Virginia, and
,the title
of i'diijor General 'Geary - will arouse no
enthusiasm. But he will be remembered
as theman who vetoed. the Police bill. and
that will be more honor than he has the
right to expect.
The ,Day, is outspoken: We - are not
militaken. Governor Geary, acting for
the people and not for u ring of politicians,
yesterday transfixed the infumous•Metrop
oiiiian Police bill with his negative. This
act. of manly independence will redound
to the Governor's credit in, all time to
come. Its immediate result is a heighten
ed sense of security. '

THE ONLY RELIABLE CURE FOIL. DYSPEPSIA
IN THE KNOWN WORLD.
Dr. Wishart's Great American Dyspenila Pills and
Pine Tree Tar Cordial are a positive and infallible
cure for dyspepsia in its most aggravated, form,'and
no matter of how long standing.
They penetrate the secret abode :of this . .terrible
disease, and exterminate it, root end ,branch, for
ever. .
They alleviate more agony and silent infferint ,
than tongue tan tell.
They are noted for curing the most desperate and
hopeless eases, when every known means fail to af
ford relief.
No form of dyspepsia or Indigestion can reaist
their penetrating power.
DR. IVISHART'S
rizzn TREE TAR CORDIAL
It is the vital principle of the Pine Tree. obtained
bye peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, by
which its highest medical properities are retained.
It invigorates the digestive organs and restores the
appetite. It strengthens the debilitated system. It
purities and enriches the blood, and expels from
the system the corruption which scrofula breeds on
the lungs. It di-solves the mucus or phlegm which
stops the air passages of the lungs. Its healing
principle acts upon the Irritated surface of the
lungs and throat, penetrating to each diseased part,
relieving pain and subduing inflammation. It is the
result of years of study and experiment,and it is
()Mired to the afflicted with positive assurance of its
power to cure the following diseases, if the patient

SPECIAL NOTICE.
SCHENCK'S PULAIONIC SYRUP
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake will cure Con
sumption. Liver Complaint and I tyspepsia. if taken
according to directions. They are all three to be
taken at the same time. They cleanse the stomach..
relax the liver, and.pnt. it to work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food ingests and-multes ,good
blood; the patient beKlus to
,grow in flesh tz-the-tlis
eased matter ripens in- the• lungs, and the Patient
outgrows the disease and gets well. This is the
only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. 11. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary consumption.. The nil
monic Syrupripens the morbid matter tn- the lanes,
nature throws it. off by an easy expectoration, for
when the phlegm or matter Is ripe, a slight cough
will throw it off, and the patient hus rest and the
lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed -Tonic and Mandrake Pills
must be freely used to cleanse the stomach And liver,
so that the Pultnonic Syrup and the food will make
good blood.
Scheack's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re
moving all obstructions. relax - the &iota of the gall
bladder, the bile starts free) •, and the liver is soon
relieved ,• the stools will shoTe what the Pills can do;
nothing has ever lawn invented except calomel (a
detallypoison which is very dangerous to nee ex
cept wits, great care), that will unlock n gall-bladder
and start the secretions of the liver like Sehenek's
'Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent
canses of Constimption.
Sehenek's Seaweed Tonic ds a gentle stimulant
and alterative, and the alkali in the Sysweed, which
this preseeption Is made of, assists the stomach to
throw out the gastt ie juice, to dissolve the food with
the Pultnonie Syrup, and it is made into good blood
without fermentation or souring in the stomaim.
The great reason why physicians do not cure con
sumption is, Mey try to do too much they give
medicine to stop the cough, to stop 0111115, to stop
night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they de
range the whole digestive powers, locking up the se
cretions. and eventually the patient sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to stop
a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Remove the
cate,e, and they trill all stop of their own accord.. „No
one can be - cured of Consumption, Liver Complaint,
Dyspepsia, Catarrh, canker, Ulcerated Throat, un
less the liver and stomach arc made healthy.
If a pet sou nas consumption, of course the lungs
are in some way diseased,either tubercles, abscesses,
-brouchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lungs
are a mass of intlamniation and fast decaying. In
such cases what must be done? It Is not only the
.lungs that are wasting, but it Is the whole body. The
:stomach and liver have lost their power to make
blood out of.food. Now the only chance is to take
Schencit's three medicines, which will bring up a
tone to the stomach.. the patient will begin to want
food. it sill digest easily and make good blood ; then
the patient begins to gain in flesh, and us soon as
the body begins to grow,the lungs commence to heal
. up, and the patient gets fleshy and well. This is the
only way to cure consumption.
When there is no lung disease, and only Liver.
Complaint anit.Dyspepsia,Schenek's Seawe.d Tonic
stud Mandrake Pills are sufficient without the Pal
nionie Syrup. 'fake the Mandrake Pills freely in all
bilious complaints, as they are perfectly harmless.
Dr:Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted health
for many years past, and now weighs 225 pounds,
WAN wasted away to a mere skeleton, in the very last
stage of Pulmonary Consumption, his physicians
having pronounced his case hopeless and abandoned
him to his fate. He was cured, by rho aforesaid
tnedicinen, and since his recovery many thousands
similarly afflicted have used Dr. Schenck's prepara
tions with the same retnarkable success. Full di.
?actions accompanying each, make It not absolutely
necessary to personally see Dr, Scnenck, unless the
pi tients wish their lungs examined, and for this
Purpose he is professionally at his principal office,
Philadelphia, every Saturday, where all letters for
advice must be addressed. He is also professionally
