"Defaming public men," 1s what
Radical editors now term tho exposure

a pity that tho "Confederate Briga

honest men put in office, and poasist
in sending the "loyal" rogues to the
Penitentiary for their "crooked" acta.
What strange tastes some men havo
anyhow.
Pointed. Ths editor of tho Venan
go Spectator says : "An old Dutch prov
erb says "A groat war leaves a coun

cripples, an army of mourners, and an
army of thieves." Thsro never was a

Morb Credit Msbilieeism. It ap
pears from documents laid before Con
gress, that the Credit Mobilior job la
tbe Union Pacific railroad, brought to
light sovoral yoars ago, which killed
Asms and - Brooks and disgraced a
large number of Congressmen, will be
eclipsod by a similar "steal" which has
been carried on by the -managers of

TUB TENTH DA 7 OF MA Y.
This was probably tha grandest and
most important day to Americans, ui
all the 36,470 days that have passed
away sine July 4lb, 1776. ' Fhiladel
phians then, now, were eye witness
es to the ace aos that transpired 'on tha
dava Indicated. Thoso who failed to
be present at tho Centennial opening
on the 10th, missed a grand sight.

inhabitants about as corrupt, morally,
as any other christian nation, but wo
expect to improvs lu that direction
from thisContennialycarfbrward, and
In a few yoars get back to our old
landings. . Old exposition goers say
that the scene decorations, the service,
the immense throng, the music Mid tho
general joy was novor excelled at any
of tho grout International Exhibitions.
Philadelphians, Pennsylvanians and
Americans, yos, all mankind should
feel proud of this grand Exposition,
where the skill and ingenuity of evory
nation on earth are on exhibition. It
is impossible for any human being to
oomprohond or imagine what is to be
seen without going upon the ground.
An Odious Distinction It is con
fessed on every hand that wo have
hard times, and persons who have
thousands of dollars invested in busi
ness which gives employment to from
five to one hundred employees, have
for two yoars past been scarcely able
to make both ends moot without real
izing one cent's worth of interest for
tbe capital invested. On the other
hand, scores of notices, of which tho
following is a sample; appoar In tho

Why do saw-mills stop, furnaces be

Tai DirriuENCR. "Hon. h. A.
Mackey has our thanks for valuable
public documents." This is tho tenor
of a compliment we find extended to
our Bemoc ratio Congressman, by our
Radical exchange in tho district. The
editors of Democratic newspapors in
the old Erie district seldom had the
privilege of writing a similar notice,
for over fifleon years, while represent
ed by Radicals, and whon application
was mado for a copy of tho llecori, or
othor public document, tho cuto reply
always was "I bavo nono on band."
To act moanly and then ho to boot,
are the true out-croppings of what fol
lowed Credit Mobilior, Bale of trading
posts, bribery and perjury. Mr. Mack
ey could not follow the example set by
Curtis, Scofield 4 Co. Being a Demo
crat instead of a bigot he naturally de
ports himself like a true representa
tive and a gentleman.
Still Boomino at Harriburo. A
special to the Philadelphia Timet says :
"The hearing before the Governor and
Attorney Genoral on the constitution
ality of tho boom bill was fixed for
May 12th, but owing to tbe unavoida
ble absonce of Judgo Maynard, who is
engaged in the trial of an important
case in Columbia county, tho argument
was postponed until Saturday of this
week, tho 20th inst Judge Maynard,
ol Williamsport, and Judge Browster,
of Philadelphia, are counsel for the
boom corporation, and Senator Allen,
of Williamsport, and Hon. Wayno Mao-
Ycagh, of Philadelphia, are counsel for
the associated lumbermon. The Gov
ernor is entirely reticent on the ques
tion. Mr. Macket. Tho editor of tbe
Philadelphia Herald, in alluding to the
ipeech made by this gentleman says :
Hon. L. A. Mackey, a plain, sensible
member of the Pennsylvania delegation
in Congress, has discovered how the
Washington monument can bo com
pleted and the shame that now weighs
upon the American pcoplo, on its ac
count, dispelled. He suggested in a
speech before tho house a few days ago
that $300,000 of tbe money to be repaid
to tho Government from the proceeds
of tho exposition, be applied to this
purpose. This idea will corlaily find
an echo in every patriotic breast, and
from every section of this broad land
There is a certain fitness in finishing
pp tho Washington monument with
Centennial money.
Superlative Impudence. Tbe Phil
adolphia Times says: "Emllo J.Potroff,
who was expelled lost week from tbe
Stale Legislature for interfering with
the boom lobbyists, has been announc
ed as a candidate for re-election to the
lower branch of the Legislature from
tho Fifth district. Ho intends to tost
tho legality of his expulsion." The
voters ot PetrofTs district had bettor
send him to tbo Penitentiary than to
return him to Harrisburg. His tastes
certainly lead toward tho lormor
House rather than the latter.
A Good Ticket. Tbe Timet, a Dom
ocratio paper published in Worth coun
ty, Missouri, has hoisted tho following
tickot for 1876 : For President, lion
T. A. Hendricks, of Indiaua ; for Vice
President, Hon. William Biglor, of
Pennsylvania. This wo consider
good tickot, but to suit us exactly, we
want the editor of the Timet to re
verse his schome, than wo will second
his motion and assist him to put It
through.
A Discovert. It is roportod that
not all tha males nor females who vis
itod. tbo Centennial grounds on tho
opening day wore ladies and- gentle
men, but some of both sexos plied their
vocation as pick-pockets. No less than
eight wore arrostod on the ground, and
the plunder found ou thoir persons.
Thirty-eight arrests in all wore made
the first day.
On The Winn. Dom Pedro mado

Exactly Sa-Tbo Pittsburgh Ltatltr
in alluding to tho Hurrisburg gift nul-
uaiico says : "The presenting of a cane
to Mr. Kkiunor, the brilxvtolioiting
olerk of tho houss, and of another to
Mr. Putroft, the exyellod member, will

tom whioh, innocon and oven credita
ble in its beginning, has grown to boa
tarco and a iraud. It has become tho
regular thing to prosont all the officers
df both houses of tho legislature with
valuable gills of plate, watches or some
thing of the kind. Such contributions
have become part of the regular per
quisites of thoso officials, and involve a
regular lax on the members. . Thoy
havo boon growing in number and
value evory yoar, and can no mora be
omitted now than any social custom
that has become imperative. It is
needless to point out in detail how
demoralizing is this gift business to
both tho givers and receivers. Tho
people cannot therefore bo sorry that
it is being made ridiculous and dis
graceful by being persisted in, even
whon tho receivers are notoriously cor
rupt and tho givers know them to bo
so.. The quicker this process brings
about tho abolition of tho custom the
bettor." ' ' ' ' ' ,
- Davenport's Frauds. The New
York Exjirett in alluding to the Grant
Davenport robbery oi tho Hocrot Bor-
vice lund says: Tho dovolopmonts
concerning the illegal use of Govern
ment money to intimidate Democratic
voters in this city become more aston
ishing. Instead of only 135,000 boing
used corruptly from the Secret Sorvico
fund, the official figures show that in
theGroeley-Grantcampaign thuro were
expended from the United States Treas
ury 1140,000. There were first paid
to the United Status marshal and his
deputies, etc., t80,000 in that year.
Noxt comes an expenditure ot 115,000,
in which 1500 are charged tor carriage
hire, 1450 fur a room at tho Fifth Av-
enuo hotel, etc. This is followed by a
payment to Davenport of over 118,000.
In addition to all these amounts 122,-
000 were takon from the Socrot Sorvico
fund and paid ovor to Davenport, mak
ing a total expenditure, in round num
bers of over 1140,000.
A Brave (?) Marshal. One of
Grant's Illinois Marshals, . Marshal
Campbell, Babcock's futber-in-law, has
bad a sudden attack of conscience,
which has caused him to return to Miss
Ada Sweet, pension agent at Chicago,
12,105 of tho money obtained without
consideration from that inexperienced
young woman, Campbell transmitted
with his check a letter, which seems
to havo boon as full of guilelessness
and oily gammon as Colfax's denials of
his Credit Mobilior complications.
llAi.r Fare for St. Louis. Tho
Committee on Transportation for the
Natiunal Democratic Convention have
received replies fiom thirty railroads
that thoy will make half faro rates not
only to delegatos to tbe convention,
but to all persons in any way connected
with tho Convention, and it is expected
at least all tho main roads of tbe coun
try will acquiesce in this arrangement
A full list ot roads agreeing to this re
duction will be submitted as soon as
the replies are all in.
Not Riout. Tho closing of tho
Centennial grounds on Sunday proves
very offensive to tho groat majority.
By opening tbe grounds, no one is com
pelled to visit the Park, but evory one
who is so disposed, can stay at homo ;
go to church, or to tbe Exhibition, as
thoy please. Tho Sabbath was mado
for man, and not man for tbe Sabbath
except Now Englanders.
Disastrous floods prevailed through

A VALUABLE PICTURE.
Lewisburir Lodge, No. 96, Independ
ent Order of Odd Fellows, are the
owners of an oil painting of Gen. Wash-
1- if- 1 .1. I.
ingion wuicn as n ri'iiu in wvnu 110
weight in gold. The painting was ex
ecuted by a Reading artist in 1807 for
Mr. Daniel U. Ungtil, the tut her ol
Mrs. George r. Miller, 01 this place.
In 1813 Mr. Bright removed from
Reading to Milton. He was a captain
in tho war of 1812. At the fourth ot
July celebration after peace was de
clared, there was a largo parade in
Milton, and Capt Bright, overflowing
with patriotism, brought out the paint
ing of Washington and it was carried
in the procession. During the demon
stration it appears that bullets were
loaded into the guns, and during the
firing several holes were made in the
painuutr, not bowever to do It much
injury. Somo time after Cant. Bright's
death, his widow moved to Ijewisburg.
Ths painting being too large for the
houso into woicn she moveu, a Drotner,
who was a member of the order, pre
sented it to tbe Odd Fellows of 96 ;
which was somewhere about the year
1846. This painting has boon In their
possession ever since and is highly
valued by them. It represents the
fatbor of bis country standing in lull
military dress, witu the tents ot bis
army in tho distance. It is about life
size. The artist finished nn his work
well and must havo stood high in his
profession. The faco and head are
well shaped bnt not as perfoctly formed
as Washington is represented to have
boon by tho most common pictures In
circulation ; but there is a slight resem
blance. 1 ho hair on his bead Is very
thin and gray. It Is said tho only
true picture of Washington in exis
tence, and the only one taken from
lite, is In possession ol tho Masonie
society at Alexandria, Virginia. - We
nave soon a bwci engraving copiou
rrom this painting, i he one in posses
sion of the Odd Fellows bore locks
very much like tho painting at Alex
andria. Taken when the features of
Washington were yot fresh in the ro
mombranco of tho people, tboro Is little
doubt it is a faithlul representation of
toe great soletior and statesman. Jjetp-

A SSOCIA TED PHESS LETTER.
Philadelphia, May 15th, 1876.
' tuin and now.
They who visit ths Centennial Ex
hibition will tea fbr thoroselvos wbat
our city now is. Wbat it waa one
hundred vesrs am cannot do luny
comprehended by the liveliest imagina
tion, uno nunared years ago, we cen
tral avenue of our city was called
High street, sinoo cbsnged to Market
street Tbe erection oi sight or ton
squares of market houses directly in the
centre of tho open street waa the cause
fur the change, tho appropriateness of
wbicb none questioned, .now mat an
those market houses have been re
moved anothor ohango of name would
bo very proper ; either ot those threo
names would be moro appropriate tuau
Market street "Pennavlvania Avenue."
'Lincoln Avenue" or "Central Avenue."
Tbe streets of the city of Philadel
phia running parallel with Market
street and north of it wore named
Mulberry. Sassafras and Vino streets.
Those south of it were Chestnut. Wal
nut Spruce, Pino and Cedar, and those
eight squares, or blocks, comprised tbo
northern and southern limits of our
city one hundred years ago; now filly
streets aro laid out and built upon
north of Market street and almost an
ual number south of It, the most ot
hicb aro lined with substantial brick
edifices from the Delaware to the
Schuylkill.
M ulberry street was long ago chang
ed to Arch street, and I doubt if Sassa-
tras street, although so labelled upon
tne street corners, was overcauoo any
thing auw than Race street This
name was glvon to it becsuse ol the
horse races constantly taking place on
tbe street. . For many years tbe racing
was on a straight una, from below
Fourth street out to Broad, and
early as 1726 the Grand Jury in their
iresentmonl held "mat since mo city
laa become so vory populous tbo usual
custom of horso racing at fairs In Sas
safras street is very dangerous to lilo ;
also, it is an evil that tbey who erect
the booths, do., in that street at tbe
fairs do sell all sorts of liquors 4c.
Tbe racing' appears to havo been
kept up untif the commencement of
tho revolutionary war. "All genteel
horses in those days were pacers ; a
trotting horse was deemed a base
breed" aays T. Matlack to tbe author
of Watson's Annals.
Cock fighting waa exceedingly pop
ular with all classes : rich and poor, !
grave and gay, all joined in the sport,

The early Quaker boys of our good
ly Quaker City war about as mis
chievous as other boys elsewhere. Un
one occasion some of the boys at tho
Quaker school, in Fourth street, went
into tbo second story ol the building
and boring a bole through tbo board
floor they lowered a pin-book attached
to a cord and when tho teacher, Rob
ert Proud, took bis afternoon doze, tho
book waa fastened iuto bis busby wig,
and when bo awakened and leaned for
ward hia wig swung from off bis boad
and waa raised rapidly towards the
ceiling by a boy drawing tbo cord ; of
course teacher Proud alter no recover
od from hia astonishment went up
stairs for that boy, but as tbe boy had
taken the precaution to throw the cord
from tho second story window to the
yard where from tbo window directly
in tbo roar of tha teachor where he
could see all that waa going on, the
lad also had tho good sense to enter
tbe school room and take bia accus
tomed seat just as Friend Proud mount-
ed tbo upper story.
It was with difficulty those staid
young Quaker boys and girls could
maintain their usual sobriety as their
teacber entered tbo school room and
looked at his big red wig suspended
by a cord above bis reach.

Tbe work of royal hands will be
quite largely exhibited at our great ex
hibition. A number ol samples of em
broidery executed by the "Royal School
or Art of Needlework under the au
spices of Queen Victory Princess Chris
tian and olbor distinguished ladies of
England, has now reached here, a de
scription of which will doubtless inter
est tbo lady readers or your paper.
One ot them is an exquisite design
in tho smiplo, severe, claasio style, in
tended forthe end of a room. The wall
hangings are worked in arabasquea of
green and gold, and the portier cur
tains, valance, frieze and pilasters upon
while cotton stuff. Tbe hangings cov
ering the door itself aro embroidered
on either sido of the door with two fe
male figures holding aloft scrolls upon
which are tbe worlds, "Salve" and
"Valo" "Welcome" and "Farewell"
to tbo coming and parting gnosis. On
the vatanoo of the door are tho three
fa too Clolho, LacbesiS and Atropos
busy with tho thread of life. Tbe
treize ia embroidorod with a most
beautiful and graceful pattern, and
over it are worked tho words, " Ars
longa, vita hrevis" "Art is long, life
short"
Another design is a mantle valanoo
of soft blueish green material, em
broidorod with pals primroses, tho ol
foct of the whole being particularly
delicate. But undoubtedly, the best of
these productions, and, indeed, the
gem of the entire exhibition, ia a four
panelled screen, upon which the
needle has skillfully portrayed the fa
ble of tho jackdaws and tbo peacock.
Art and taste can surely go no further
than in tha conception and execution
of this design.
Mr. Morris, ths eminent designer, is
in great force with a dado, whioh dis-
Claya his characteristics in a romarka
lo manner. It consists of goldon
grapes, on a ground of peculiar green,1
with peacocks at intorvals ; also, wall
hangings in dolicato and flowing ara
besque, so cunningly blended and har
monised that at a distance ths parts
become united in ono indefinable tint
Mr. Pollen has a portier of crimson
velvet, vory magnificently worked In
gold and colors. This truly regal piece
of work would be out of place in any
thing but a palace, so massively gor
geous Is it
Tbe Princess Christian exhibits a
screen of dark green aatin, upon which,
in applique work and embroidery In
termingled, are foliage and birds.
Princess Louisa baa embroidered for
ber royal mother's palao of Windsor
ourtain borders, showing lilies on a
background of deep red velvet Tho

beautiful portiere covered with Baa
flowers, tbo harmonising of aolora bo
ing la th moat parfoot taato.
Mis Gemmsl ha four velvet panola,
each embroidered with boldly design
ed flower, tbe poppy and tbo foxglove
being esiwcially .remarkanio.
A quilt embroidered in gold Irom an
anciout pattern in tho possession of
Countess isrownlow, is ono of ibtmost
striking objects of the exhibition.

he that instigated tbo Christian mob
to tear from the bauds of th Turks a
young girl who had voluntarily turned

discovered that this consul thought be

Vice and Virtue. Virtue rarely
lasses unrecognised by the world. A
ew distorted optics may fail to recog
nize her features; but it would be as
easy to conceal the face of tho noon
day sun undor a mask, as her resplend
ent features. The dark face of vie is
far easier of disguise. Not visard
shop but supplies a hundred varnished
faces, smiling and serene, to conceal
her deformities from tbe unwary. In
tbe familiar scenes of society, many a
man passes through lite, not only with
bia errors unsuspected, but disguising
bis very laults in ths semblance or vir
tues. Tboro is a sort of stupid equani
mity which is invariably taken for
good temper. It listens unmoved to
revilings it supports the crosses of
lire without murmur it resembles
good temper aa pewter resembles sil
vor. Obstinacy in tho same manner
digniBes Itself by sporting tbe Koman
toga or nrmnoss.
