A Slight Difference of Opinion.
The Philadelphia Press says, "the
people have acknowledged most every
thing new that lias, been proposed by
the Constitutional Convention."
A very intelligent friend in Came
ron county, writing to us about the
proposed Constitution, says: "My
opinion is, the people do not know
anything about what lias been done
by the Convention. The Pros has
not shed any very certain light upon
the work of the Convention as a
whole. Its illumination has been
Confined to a few particular parts of
the work of that body, and those prin
cipally affecting Philadelphia."
We think this criticism is just, and
that the entire press of Philadelphia
has failed in its duty in this matter.
Jt was very active in inducing a ma
jority of the Delegates to adjourn the
Convention to that city; having ac
complished that purpose it ceased to
take any great interest in its proceed
ings, and the people have had 110
means of knowing "anything about
what has been done." Our friend is
right. Let the country press give
them the necessary information.
F IN THE course of the last year or
two we have heard several of our
well-to-do fanners use something like
the following la nguage: "1 make more
clear money by raising horses than
by any other branch of farming."
It seems, then, that there is no
doubt about this branch of stock
raising being profitable in Potter
county.
Our object in writing this article
is to call the attention of farmers
generally to the above facts and to
the importance of breeding from
blooded animals. A great main
people who propose raising colts
seem to act on the idea that a hor<
is a horse, 110 matter what his blood
or whether lie has any blood at all.
But any one who bree ' on such prin
ciples w ill discover, when he offers
his stock in market, that though he
has a horse to sell, his profits for rais
ing it are not very heavy. It costs
jest as much to raise a "scrub" co!t
to marketable age as it does a tho-
roughbred and he will not sell for
more than a quarter or half as much.
But many claim that what are called
blooded horses, and especially tho
roughbreds, are no better than com
mon breeds for general purposes, and
that the only advantage in raising
them is where a fast horse can be
produced. Now, any one who pur
chases a horse looks for certain points
and qualities that are universally ack
nowledged to constitute a good ani
mal, and a test will show that blood
ed horses are just the ones that pos
sess those points. In every use to
which a horse is put the blooded ani
mal is superior to the scrub.
In conversation with a gentleman,
not long since, who is interested in
raising good horses, he said that some
time ago he met an intelligent farm
er of another county who was driving
a fine span of thoroughbreds. He
asked him how such animals com
pared with common breeds for farm
work, and the reply was, "they are
as much superior for that purpose as
they are on the road; I have always
kept good horses, but this is the finest
team I ever owned—i use tliem for a
farm team and for roadsters and the}'
cannot be purchased for anything less
than § 1200."
We believe this County is well
adapted to this branch of business
and that our farmers are coming to
recognize the fact, and wc hope to
see them at the same time recognize
the other fact that "blood tells."
The Proposed New Constitution.
The readers of the JOURNAL have
learned, from occasional letters from
| "Constitution Hall," something of
the general spirit of the Convention.
It is proposed now to make them ac
quainted with the most important
work of that body.
On the first page of this paper will
be found the Article on Legislation
as it passed second reading, and as
it will probably be submitted to the
people for their approval or disap
proval.
In the judgment of the writer the
Article on Legislation is the most
important of any adopted by the
Convention—nay, that it is more im
portant than all the others combined.
Any person of ordinary intelligence
will see on reading it that if adopted
by the people it will thoroughly erad
icate the evil of special legislation; it
will prevent the passage of any bill
in undue haste; it will prevent com
mittees of conference from smuggling
through new matter that never passed
either House; it will prevent them
from loading down the appropriation
bill with all manner of obnoxious
items.
But it is not my intention to tell
what reforms are embodied in this
articl • —only to ask every reader of
the JOURNAL to give it careful and
thoughtful consideration ; for in spite
of some defects I consider the Article
on Legislation one of real reform.
If adopted, it w ill at once purify the
atmosphere of lJarrisburg to some
extent and will remedy nearly all the
evil that lias grown into our present
system of legislation; and, in my
judgment, nothing but an amend
ment to the Constitution will remedy
these evils. They are the inevitable
outgrowth of our present Constitu
tion and legislative practice, and are
beyond the reach of honest legisla
tors without some help from the or
ganic law. J. S. M.
WE IIAVE received from the Na
tional Publishing Co., No. 19 North
Seventh street, Philadelphia, a very
interesting book entitled "The Unde
veloped West, or Five Years in the
Territories." It is written by J. H.
Beadle, the western correspondent of
t lie Ci nctano.tiCommercial and author
of "Life in Utah." It is a narrative
of Mr. Beadle's personal adventures
during live years of exciting life in
every part of the great West beyond
the Mississippi and will well repay
perusal. It is sold only by subscrip
tion. For an agency or a copy of the
book address the publishers as above.
W E ARE having beautiful summer
weather these last few days. Time
for rides and walks, for gathering
wild berries and seeing wide, beauti
ful views from bill-tops, for wander
ing along the faint, winding paths
the cows have made in their grazing.
There is wisdom in following these,
too, for the cows know the best steps,
the safest ground, the easiest ascent
or descent of a hill or a knoll. There
are sweet airs abroad and the ferns
are in their prime; little birds nestle
among them and wild flowers.
We wish there were a harvest-home
festival kept by our whole people, so
that all should gather in the open
air and spend at least one pleasant
day abroad.
GUESS.
In a gay company not long ago a
doctor of divinity gave a riddle to be
solved, an arithmetical puzzle, saying
he would give fifty dollars to a cer
tain charitable, institution that the
company were very much interested
in, if five young ladies would solve
it before tea-time, lie said a num
ber of learned men—college profes
sors, etc.—had worked over it a long
time without reading it aright.
Pencils and paper were busily
plied, but, though some succeeded,
the five young ladies did not, so the
gentleman saved his donation for
that time. I think some of our Pot
ter county young people will have no
great trouble with it.
One hundred and one by fifty divide,
And then if a cypher be rightly applied,
And your computation agreeth with
mine,
The answer will be one taken from nine.
WORK is one of our great blessings,
no doubt—that is, for those who can
not do "business." Work, especially
that of farm and household, takes up
our time and our energies, prevents
our running to waste and keeps us
steady, relieves a great many griefs
and anxieties and stops some brood
ing over ills that cannot be helped,
but in its turn it takes too much time
and thought. It follows the law of
matter and tends to aggregation and
accumulation, a tendency that should
be counteracted by edging as often
as possible and stretching the possi
bilities, something of variety, rest,
recreation.
"J feel as though I should last the
longer for taking a nap in the middle
of the day," and wisely he takes it.
But we are all too apt to let all little
rests be crowded away, though we
know that soul and body need them.
"O, TH AT mine enemy would write
a book." If he will not do that let
him write a letter. This last is what
Ben Butler lias lately been doing in
the attempt to justify himself for
his action on the salary job last win
ter. We do not propose to review
it, in fact, Ben mixes himself into it
so completely it would be a disagree
able subject to review. But there is
one reason given for increasing the
pay of Congressmen that we wish to
refer to. lie says he lias seen hon
est, temperate men unable to bring
their fannies to Washington, and
sometimes when they have brought
them there, seen them live in a single
room in the third story of some sec
ond-class boarding bouse in order to
meet t heir expenses and keep up the
old home they have left among their
constituents. To relieve their wants
and thus remove from them the ter
rible temptation to become corrupt,
to which they have been exposed, lie
labored to have their pay increased.
We unsophisticated people up here
in the backwoods have supposed that
when wc elected a man to Congress,
he was going there to look after the
interests of his constituents and the
welfare of the nation at large. Going
to vote, work on committees, talk—
maybe for bunconie—in a word, make
himself generally useful for a few
months, and then come home tired,
perhaps, but with opportunity to
rest. Now Ben's reasons upset our
ideas entirely. Our Congressmen
may do all the things we have inti
mated, but the real purpose of send
ing him, after all, is that he may take
his family to Washington and main
tain them there in elegant apart
ments, and clothe them fashionably.
If this cannot be done for SSOOO,
make it $ 10,000, and then maybe the
man will not become corrupt. But
where is this to stop? How long
betore Ben's logic will reason out
that every member must own and
furnish a house of his own, or else
he'll get to taking bribes? The whole
thing is too transparent.
MR. EDITOR: There was a picnic
on Saturday a very pleasant, nice,
little one, and only one at all be
cause some of those spoken too
graciously put by every hindrance
and went, some of them at very seri
ous inconvenience to themselves. I
think they had their reward, for it ap
peal's all were glad the}* did go.
There is one difficulty about excur
sions into the woods, if arranged be
forehand it is apt to rain and set all
preparations at naught, if got up on
the spur of the moment, or at the
call of a fine day. a great many will
not hear of it, and many of those
cannot go. But the few that do get
started find this a very enjoyable
way, especially when it is only a
walk, and, as in this one, every one
is determined to have a good time.
They met at the Bachelors' Retreat—
had reading and singing, eating and
drinking, and the weather cooled in
the meantime, so it was very pleasant 1
going home. j
By the way, are the bachelors;
neglecting their retreat? It does not
seem to be kept quite so nice as it
was once.
"TIIE people of most of the States
have this Fall to choose between, on the
one hand a party of definite, fixed politi
cal principles under the guidance of
which the country grew to all its pres
ent greatness and power, and of such j
moral principles that it expels its j
Tweeds; and on the other hand a party j
that has now no political principles;
whatever concerning the present or fu
ture life of the republic, and whose great
moral idea is to promote its Tweeds.'
New York World.
Commenting on the above precious
extract from the acknowledged na
tional organ of the Democracy, the
Buffalo Express says: "Party of
definite, fixed political principles" is
good. No two Democratic papers
can agree as to what Democratic
doctrine is this year—that's "defi
nite." And last year they "surren
dered" all their principles at Balti
more (see Groesbeek)—that's "fixed.
As for expelling its Tweeds—it is a
notorious fact that the Democracy
of New York City elected Tweed to
the State Senate by a majority of
6000 votes after the full exposure of
the Tammany frauds had been made.
That's where the "moral principle"
comes in. How simple, and yet how
convincing!
Death of Wm. M. Meredith.
Born one year before the close of
the last century, William M. Mere
dith lived in the most interesting era
of modern civilization, after filling
his nearly two generations with vir
tue and usefulness. Without attempt
ing distinction, it came to him as the
fruit comes to a healthy tree. AN ith
out mingling in the busy strifes ol
party, honors were as frequently de
clined as they were freely proffered.
| He was never what might be called
i a prodigy, but his influence was pro
digious. He ripened early, and at
the time of his death he was, so to
speak, mellow with a long experience
I and a sound learning. lie was an
I intuitive lawyer; so wise and sate,
always, that his opinions became the
maxims of his professions, and his
principles the guiding-stars of a great
community. Never ponderous, he
was always profound. Sternly avoid
ing sensation, his common sense was
not less marked than his apprecia
tion of humor and imagination in
others, and his own unrivalled pow
ers of dignified satire and quiet wit.
He ma\ lie called the last, with the
exception of Horace Binnoy, of the
giants of the old Pennsylvania bar.
He mingled with these masters as
rival and equal; and when lie met
the great minds of other States, like
Webster, lie filled their largest meas
ure and stood as tall as themselves.
He was every inch a Pennsylvanian.
National, because his ideas were
broad and his vision stretching be
yond all limited horizons, he never
theless believed, as in a religion, that
his native state was armed with the
elements of a rare superiority, and lie
was always prominent in the assertion
of her rights to a superior cousidera- j
tion. Ho was a Whig, but never an
Anti-Mason. He was an American,
but never a Know-Nothing. As
President Taylor's Secretary of the
Treasury for only a brief period, he
served long enough to leave a states
man's mark on the records of the de
partment. As a legislator, he was
eminently safe and sagacious. As a
delegate in our two last State Con
stitutional Conventions, lie favored
all reforms that were liberal and op
posed all that were revolutionary.— i

NEW RAILROAD PROJECT. —New
projects are opening up every day.
and among them is one for a Rail-;
road from Olean to Warren, running!
through a vast and unopened timber j
country. This move is gotten up by ;
a number of New York State capit
alists and the immediate moving!
spirit is George Van Cain pen, Esq., i
of Olean, who was in town on Mo a- i
day, urging our people to organize!
a company at once. The name of!
the company is to be the "Olean. i
Warren and Southern Railway." |
Starting from Warren on this side of
the river and running nine miles j
above the Big Bend, and there cross-j
ing to the southeasterly side to Sala- j
manca, and Allegany, where it cross-j
cs back to this side and connects I
with the Erie Railway there, and
with the Buffalo, New York, and
Philadelphia Railroad at Olean. It:
also has in view a connection with'
the Pine Creek Railway which I
touches the P. & E. R. R. at Jersey!
Shore. It will also afford connec
tion with the Rochester and State
Line Railroad, at Salamanca, only a
bridge being required at that place
to make it.— Warren Ledger.
A NEW CAVE AT THE FALLS.—A J
recent number of the Suspension!
Bridge Journal contains the follow-!
ing: "Two men named Jas. Alum-j
ford and Thomas Conroy, who for
many years have acted as guides
through the Cave of the Winds on'
Goat Island, determined to ascertain
if there was not another cave under
the American Fall. They repaired
to the first of the ferry stairs provid
ed with ropes and ladders. A fieri
getting beyond this sheet of water'
without much difficulty, they found !
it necessary to use their boats in or
der to reach the desired locality, j
Mr. G. W. Siinms, an eye witness,
says the men were out of sight for
some time, and he gave them up for
lost. They soon, however, made
their re-appearance and pronounced
the new cave one of the wonders of j
the world. It was pitch dark in the
cave, and in one place they stood be
tween two wal Is of water. 1 hey
were prevented from going further
for want of some more tools and
some means of lighting the cave.—
Olean Times.
THE Chinese emigration question '
pales before a new element ol peace
ful invasion. The west is being
spied out by the forerunners of a
Lutheran emigration from Russia,
which is already settling in Nebras
ka. The strongest inducements are !
held out to attract this valuable for- j
eign acquisition. This Russian hegi
ra arises from the fact that the
rights of a great number of Germans, i
who settled about Odessa years ago, j
have been violated and they are now
compelled to speak the Russian lan- j
guage and do military service. They
resent such interference and have re
solved to transfer their great wealth
to the United States. Those already
arrived near Yankton, Dakota, repre
sent a capital of two millions of dol
lars and are all experienced farmers.
The immigration into our country
this year has already reached 185.t?4.>,
almost equal to that of last year, and
still the increase from the fall months
is unreckoned. Danes, Norwegians,
Swedes, Germans, Irish and Chinese, j
the most diverse representatives of j
the human body politic flock hither
and still the country survives and j
thrives. Will it always be thus?
We believe, that the American Re
public is competent to take all in
and mould them to a liomeogenious
mass.
An enthusiastic temperance con-,
; vention was held at Driftwood, Cam
; cron County, Pa., on the 6th inst,
1 and the following preamble and reso
■ lutions were passed:
j
WHEREAS. —According to the prcs
-1 out status of the temperance cause j
| i:i Cameron count y under the work
ings of the "Local Option'* law, we
feel ourselves to be the victim as
| rite rum-seller is saved the expense
of procuring a license, and his pat
rons only troubled to pas- around to
the tear door. Therefore be it Me
solved.
Ist. That since the Legislature of
Pennsylvania has passed the "Local
Option law," we accept the same as
an indication of the public senti
ment. Nevertheless, as true temper
ance men and women, we accept
' nothing as a finality but absolute
prohibition of the liquor traffic by
i law.
2nd. That this Convention deem j
it the sacred duty of every minister ;
of the Gospel and members of the i
church of Christ of whatever name I
or denomination, and all law abiding j
citizens of the country to unite in
the stringent enforcement of the laws
now governing the sale of intoxicat
ing liquors, and the prompt prosecu
tion of all who violate the same.
THE Rev. Father Lewis, of Clif
ton, Staten Island, has on hand a j
large supply of the miraculous water j
from the Grotto of Lounles. Who
ever desires to test its efficacy may
do so by inclosing to him "an offer- i
ing," when a flask ol the precious
water will be sent by express. Holy |
water by express! But not without
an "offering." Would it not be strict
ly de fide to send it "C. O. lb"?
SOMETIME during Tuesday night j
an immense rock weighing between
If) and 20 tons, slid upon the track,
near A nderson's station on the Penn- ;
sylvania railroad. It was removed j
by the track men inside of half an
hour, and before any detention or in- j
jury to trains was had.— Stale Jour-'
nal.
THE governor of .Missouri crossed
the state line into Kansas, the other
day, on a shooting excursion, and i
was arrested and lined for violation !
of the Kansas game laws. If gover
nors wish to break the laws, they !
should always do it within their own
states.— lndependent.
TIIE English clergyman at Seaton,
England, refused to bury a little boy
who was accidentally drowned, the j
other day, because he was not prop-;
erly baptized, although named and '
registered. The man who risked his
life in attempting to save the little
fellow did not. it appears, inquire
whether the child had been baptized
or not before he plunged into the
river; and the opinion is freel}* ex
pressed in that neighborhood that
tlie religion of the man who did his
best to save the lost boy is of a great
deal better sort than that of the
parson.

polygamous scions than Republics.
The Grand Duke Alexis, who came
here and continued round the world,
to forget he loved the daughter of;
his tutor, will have his constancy j
gratified by being permitted to mar-1
ry her—that is go through the core- j
mony of a left handed marriage.
But this will not prevent him from
marrying some European princess,
by-and-by, when -dictated by alfairs
of State.— Elmira Advertiser.
Miss EMMA E. Eastman, of Wor-:
coster, Massachusetts, is the first la
dy graduate from Cornell Univer
sity. \\ hen she first entered tilings
were not as they are now. Her path
was not one of roses, but she loos- j
ened red tape, won scholastic distinc
tion and graduated with high honors.'
And now fifteen young ladies have i
succeeded her, who will find the col-!
legate road easier to travel than she ;
did. Thus co-education of the sexes !
and President White have triumphed. 1
It is to be regretted that President
White could not have been present
at the late National Teachers' Asso-i
j eiation, and crossed falchion blades'
with President Eliot and MeCosh, |
who think it wise to differ from
him.— Eloxira Advertiser.

THE Austrian exhibition is fruitful
of scandals. A very gallant Austri
an baron, who wears shoulder-straps,
with some companions, followed a
party of American ladies around the!
exhibition for four hours, offering
repeated insults. They appealed to
General C., holding an official posi- j
1 tion, and he slapped the Baron in the
face. Cards were interchanged, and
quite a fluster made, when the Ba-j
ron, learning that it would be made,
a government matter if American
i ladies were to be thus insulted, sent
a most cringing apology.— Elmira
Advertiser.

San Diego yesterday from Yuma. 1
