too, tho word political in ltn worwt
neiiHe, 1 ho prococdmi'a ol tho itcpuo.
liean (VmvMition helil at llarriahtiri'
yeBtorday show that tlione who control
the party orinmir.ntion in that Ntato
aro unaiile to diiteeru the mn of the
tinio. A year Biro the notonouH Phila
delphia nnu were defeated in their
eflnrta to aeeuro the noiuinittinn of
their mail I'axwin for a Supremo Judge
ship. YeHtenlay they succeeded, and
tiniler the provinionH of the new Con
Htitntion of the State the nomination in
equivalent to an election, einco two
Judaea are to lio elected, and a voter
can place hut one name on his hallot.
Tho proceedings in yesterday's and
last year's conventions, and the charca
and criticisms that have appeared from
time to timo in lVnnsvlvania newspa
pers, together with tho character of
the support to which Air. raxson is In-
delitotl tor Ins nomination, are a sum
cient comment on that pcntlennin's
tltncna fur tho Supremo Bench, lie
wns horn in Illicit countv in IK4 mid
is at present Associate Justico of the
Court of Com mnn l'leasnf I'hilailelphia.
1 he term ot the J udgesliip tor which
ho is now nominated, and in effect
elected, is twctity-ono years. He, will
bare six associates on tho tench, mid
the one whose term of ollice is soonest
to ex pi ro is er-nHieio ('href Justice.
Juilli Afrnew is the senior of the Ave
Judges who now constitute the Court.
"J ho platform adopted hy the Con
vention is neneath contempt. 1 heonly
real afllrmation in it in regard to nu-
tional issue is that in favor of protec
tion. It if significant, however, that
tho Convention did not venture toeonie
out flut-footcd for inflation; and this
justifies a hope that tho next delega
tion sent to Congress tiy the Ntuto will
have less faith than tha prosi'nt one in
the efficacy of debauching the currency
as a specific for tho revival of trade.
Our dispatches show that the Conven
tion is not in favor of a third term lor
President Grant. '1 Tha work Of defin
ing their views on national questions
has been too much for many Conven
tion this season, but no Convention
has so signally failed as that of tho
Pennsylvaniaucpublicans. The Homo.
erats need never more pretend to be
alive if they cannot make a better
schedule of their principle than the
I
iilatforni adopted nt Ilarrisburg.
"Tbo election to I held on the 3d
of November next will give the honest
voters of Pennsylvania a better oppor
tunity of repudiating those who hnve
so long made mere hundiao of politics
than they havo bud lor a long time.
The material Interests of tbo State have
probably suffered more from the finan
cial crisis than those of any other sec
tion of the Union, and derangement of
this kind always unsettles politic,
"The now Constitution provides that
no citir.cn shall bo qualified to vote un
less bo shall have paid a Stale or coun
ty tax within two yeitrs ot the election,
and at leant one month before the ilny
it is held. There aro also soma pro
visions against fraudulent counting
and other kinds of ehcttting which
ought to bo elleetive, even in rennxyl
vnnia. it is, thcrcforo, probable, that
the lonnt of the vote eleven weeks
hence will disclose thereat choice of
the people concerning t hdr represenht-
tivos at vt ashingtou anil liari'miiurg
It i heartily to bo wished that the bust
men nuiv bo ehosen to net in tbos
capacities,' budllds can ho' brought
about by tho voter through tho exer
cise of a niunly independenco regard-
less ol party ties.
"Politically the Btate if o close that
neither pari v can atVortl to nomiiuile
bail mull. . The liopuhlicanehavenigilu
a bad beginning,- and nnght to tiuflVr
for it. The , election of Mr, 1'itxaon,
however, ennnot in nil probability he
prevented, but it is possible for tho
eoplo, in choosing twenty-seven niem

fifty nieiiils m nf tho Issgislaturo, to
strike a heavy blow nt jobber)' anil ring

niau, nnd now our State pride is again
gratified by tho fact that Saturday,
August 1st, 1H74, marks the centennial
anniversary of the discovery of oxygen,
and that tho day was celebrated at
Northumberland, Pa., by a gathering
of the chemisUof America at the tomb
of Joseph Priestley, who spent tho last
decade of his life on tho soil of Penn
sylvania, and there lien entombed. -
Priestley was liorn in Yorkshire,
Kuglaiiil, m 17113, and his life was do
voted to tho anient study of the class
ics and natural philosophy. Ho was
a prolific writer and obtained eminence
as a theologian, though usually a do
fender of what were then rccognutcd
as heterodox tenets. Itwas, however,
in the progress of bin studies of natural
philosophy that ho attained most sig
nal success and a fame which shall en
dure while ckomiidry remains tho most
wide-reaching of all sciences.
On tho lRt of August, 1774, as nearly
as historical roseurch ean define the
ditto, he made the discovery of oxygen
gas, (which ho named dophlngisticatcd
air) and thereby estahlished the ideuti
ty and true theory of tho leading cle
ment of all organic life.' His discovery
wtM Blllnnetl hy the reecurclioH on
chlorine by Scheole, in the same year
and by important investigation under
taken ny Lavoisier, which eventually
led to the overthrow of the phlogistic
ny pot ncsis.
Priestley also discovered nitrous gae,
nit roue oxide, nitrous vapor, oarlsinic
oxtilo gas, sulphurous Oxide gnu, fluoric
acid gus, ammoiuucul gas and muriatic
gas, und wns tho principal inventor of
tlio pneumatic trough, i liese chemi
cal discoveries rendered his name
fuinoim throughout Europe and he re
ceived many titles of distinction and
other honors. In 179 J he removed to
America and took up his residence at
Northumberland, where his Mm en
gaged in agricultural pursuits, and the
liu her spent the last ten year of hi
life in further literary labors and in the
enjoyment of the honors which his dis
coveries had heaped uixm him. Ho
died in 1HH1, and his death was the
occasion id universal eulogy of his life
mid puhhu services, Cuviur, tho most
famous scientist of his day and ono of
the givatcst minds of any age, pro
nouncing Priestley' elogr in the French
institute.
iho wet that this llliirtrotis man
spent the last years of his life in this
country, tho important discoveries
which he made, the great scentillc re
sults of tho year 1771, and the fact that
be lies entombed at Northumberland,
combined to render tho centennial of
Chemistry a tilting occasion and one
which will servo not only to revive tho
memory of its illustrious discoverers,
but also to luster a tccling ol fraternity
iimong tho members ot a profession
which has In view the highest interest

A TEST QUESTION.
It seems, according to the New York
Tribune, that the question before the
Radical Stato Convention lust week
wns Paxson for Supreme Judge or the
penitentiary. The 2'rifitfnrailiuitathrre
were some decent men in that body
and then continue as follows:
"Last year the Philadelphia King
nimlo a determined effort in the nomi
nating Convention at Hurrisbiirg to
obtain ft place on the Snpreme liench
for J udgo Paxson. He had dono them
important service; ho wa commonly
supposed to havo an cxtensivo knowl
edge of their socrets : and it wns frank
ly declared in the .Republican caucus
that certain leaders ol the party mtuf
proonro his nomination in order to
savo themselves from state prisou
There wore Republican reformer, how
ever, in tho Convention who bitterly
opposed tjiis movement, and the fight
over Paxson was one of tho scandals
of tho season, Tho Ring were not
strong enough to carry out their plan,
though they were able to defeat the
first cTioice of tho opposition, Judge
Duller and a compromise wns finally
made upon Judge Gordon. . This year
the Ring returned tollarrishurg bolder
and more determined than over, and
Judge Paxson wa nominated after a
bitter but brief contest.
"There was somo spirited language
in the caucus and the Convention, how
ever, just as there was in 1873, Last
year we remember at least ono of the
Republican newatiaiiers in Philadelphia
declared that it would not snjipin-t
Jndge Paxfrm if the corrupt politicians
of that city succeeded in imposing him
upon tic people of tho State, V o pro
curious to know whether any consid
erable faction of tho party ia ready to
adopt a similar independent course

wero based upon his alleged affiliation
with on of tho most nclarioti Kings

now is whether tho men wie have de

"Tho answer to this question ought

One of the editors of the Altoona
Tribune recently mado a western tour
and thus speak nf tho devastation
made by tho grasshoppers :
"in our letter from Denver City, a
short time sinue, wu referred to the
terrible grasshopper courge now bo
iug felt in Kansas. Siuco writing that
letter we havo again piousd through
tho Stato, witnessed more of the grout
devastation, and had an opportunity
to learn something about the condition
of tho peoplo of that blighted section.
"We should first note that previous
to tho nppeuranco of tho grasshoppers
a ii rou m nan prevailed lor two months,
over the central part of tho State.seri.
ously injuring the com and lato vege-
laoie. tint irom this the peoplo and
stock would not have suffered materi
ally, a thoro wa still suflleitnt soil
corn to fatten hogs and other stock for
saliS and they could have cut enough
grans to leod Willi oat to keep the bal
ance over winter.
"Usually tho plains of Kansas aro
tanned by a cool brocxo lrom tho South
but after tho drouth had continued for
two months, these brrexes, during tho
middle of tho day, changed to hot
simoon which literally parched up
every green thing tho grasshnpiors
left. On tho occasion of the apiear
ance of tho grasshopper, tho wind
changed and came from the northwest.
When the approach of these dostroyers
was first noticed, the peoplo imagined
that the plains to the northwest had
been fired and that tho dark mass roll
ing toward them was the smoke aris
ing therefrom. They were soon unde
ceived, however. In a few minutes
tho air was full of grasshoppers, and
in a fow minutes more they covered
sidewalks, fence, and every green
thing in that section. In lee than
twenty-four hour they hail done their
woilc, devastated tho entire country in
tho vicinity of Salina, and passed on
eastward devouring ns they went.
When we were in Sal ma, throe day
alter the advent ot the grasshoppers,
tho air was yet lull ol them, and the
appcurance was that of a snow storm
of largo flakes. These insoct differ
from thoso in this part of tho country,
in that they aro able to keep much
longer on wing, and are white in color,
and, when flying in tho air, really
rosoiuhlo largo snow flukes. In a few
hour after their arrival they had oaten
np all that tho drouth had left, and the
desolation was distressing to behold.
fcvery troo, except tho Cottonwood
which they do not eat, was stripped as
bare of leaves as in midwinter. Apple
and peach orchards wero completely
stripped of leaves, leaving the fruit
hanging haro upon the limbs, and tins,
tho brood yet remaining, were devour
ing, or, at least, destroying. In many
place only tho pits of tbo peaches re
mained on tho troo, tho fruit having
been entirely devoured, in tho gar
den only cabbage-runts wero to be
seen, and potato patches showed bare
furrows and bleached stalks.
"It is Impossible to picture or con
ceive of tho utter desolation which fol
lows such a visitation. The sight must
bo witnessed to be rcalixed. In winter
timo wo naturally export to find trees
barren of leaves und holds brown and
bare, nnd the sight doe not affect us ;
but to find them thus in midsummer,
especially after having just passed
through the ric h and healthy tohage
of Missouri, causes a depression of
spirits, ami make one leel as H he had
entered a valley of death. Destitution
is tbo picture ou every side, and there
is much of reality in tho picture.
"A number of tho old settlers, along
tho railroads and rivers, bad raised
considerable crop of wheat and oats
which they succeeded in harvesting be
fore the grasshoppers came upon them.
Of course, they will have enough to
keep them over winter. Those further
north, howovcr, where the croiw are
luter, and where the grasshoppers first
appeared, did not save even their
wheat There are also many lato set
tlors, who had wheat crops, and relied
upon their first year's crop of od corn
for support durine; the coming winter.
I'iKin these calamity fall most heavily.
These crops wero yet quite green and
readily fell a prey to the destroyers.
They now huve neither food for them
selves or their stock, and all that they
ean do I to pack np their little all and
mako their way hack to the State, at
least to M issouri. And this they are
doing. Ou our return homo through
the State, a few days since, we noticed
number of white covered wagons on
tho road, heading east, antl were in
formed that nearly all the settlers in
tho Solomon and Kepublicnn river val
leys wore preparing to return to tho
States aa soon as posalhlo,
"That many of tho settler of Kau
sas are now compelled to return to the
States is, undoubtedly, the result of
their own Improvidence, Last year
they had abundant crops. .. Corn was
a drag in tho market tho price run
ning down a low at eight cents per
buttlie). In oouewpioueo of low prices,
many fanners, a in fnstnmary in that
country, burned their torn for fuel,
supposing that this year would lie as
tho last, and even more plentiful. Now,
however, they would gladly possos
that which they so wantonly destroyed
Inst year, and for want of which tliey
must Journey ia another land. They
could readily have kept it, for corn
does not heat or spoil in thut country,
though kept on piles for years. Per
hapa the lesson this calamity teaches
them may do them, and others, good
tor year to come. Most likely, nil
those who havo felt tho effect of thi
devastation will provide against a like
ono In future.
"As an evidence of (lie soatvity of
corn In th Interior- ot Kansss, we may
nolo (hat In tho some locality where
it was lust year sold at eight cents per
bushel, it now readily commands Il.tiS."
