sprung up liko a giant unbound, and
never exuuptin dramatic literature, haa
thoro boon rovenlod such an awaken
iuir and aucli a change.
There i an old drama culled tbo
"Inconntant," In which tbo horoof tho
play in boguilod Into a don of infamy,
and when bo Is confronted by miscro-
ants ho, for tbo flrat timo, roaliaea the
ilimmr in which bo is iilarod. lie tools

drofwos tbom us if ho was unaware of
thoir true clmrnctor. llo shakos thoin
by tho hand, presents ono with his
wotob, and another with his purso.
Ho is "hail follow well mot," witb tbom,
and ho invited thorn to join hint in
carouse, mid otl'ors to send his psgo for
wino. The outlaws hear it, and won-
aunt, and ho snys to his page: "Hring

marked UtO." Tho pago departs, woll
knowimr that tho message rofurs not
to wino, but a company of soldlorsnum
bcrinir 10(1. and wearing a rod uniform.
After breathloss suspense tho piifjo re
turns, and in unswor to tbo frantio de
mand, "The wine, boy, tbo wino I" an
swers: "Coming sir," and tho tramp
nf nnnml men is head. Then tho en
trapped man grows bold, llo pulls
ono outlaw bv tho noBO, and outts an
other on the oar, and tlio soldiors enter
and march tbom off to jail. So it was
with ns whon Mcl'urlnn came upon tbo
stand. Ho was tho blood-red wino
marked 100. Then wo know ws wore
frcu mon. Tbon wo carod no longer
for tho Mollio JIairuiros. Then wo
could go to Ptttny Collins, tbeCommis
aionor of this county, and Bay to him,
"huild well tho walls of tho new addi.
lion of tbo prison ; dig tho foundations
deep and mako thorn strong ; put in
Hood masonry and iron-bare, for, as the
Lord livotli, tho time will como wbon
Bide by sido with Wm. Love, tbo mur
of 'Squire Gwitbor, you will entor the
walls thnt yon ar now building for
others." Then we could say to Juck
Kohoo, the High Constable of t groat
borough in this county, " We have no
fear of yon." Tbon wo could say to
Kcd Monaghan, Chief of Police, and
murderer, and assassin : "Behind you
' tho scaffold is prepared for your recep
tion." Tbon wo could say to Pat Con-i-y,
Commissioner of this county, " The
timo has ceased when a Oovornor ol
this State dares to pardon a Mollio Ma-
puiro ; you havo bail your nisi paruon.
Then we could sv to John Slattory,
who was almost clotted Judge of this
Court : " Wo know of you that it wore
bettor you had not boon born tlinn il
should bo known." Thon all ot us
looked up. Tbon. at last, wo wore
free, and I enmo to tbis county and
walked through it as safely as in tbo
most crowdod I horoughfiiros in Phila
delphia. Thoro is ono other dramntio illustra
tion which I romombor, and to which
I cannot help adverting to, as it so
clearly paints tbo scono which has boon
onactod so lately in this county. It
occurs in Bulwor's drama of Kicbolieu.
Yon remember that Kichelieu.tke Prime
Minister of Louis XIII., was threatened
by secret conspiracy, led by a groat
nobleman, dramatized as Do Baradas,
and headed in tho army by the very
brother ol the King himself. You will
romember tho statesman, realizing that
his power ovor tho King was gone, and
that the conspirators had acquired ab
solute control over the mind of the
Monarch, set a pago upon tho track to
discover the evidence of the conspiracy,
no that ho could lay it before the Mon
arch in the presence of the conspirators
themselves. You will also remember,
if you havo road tho drama, the thrill
ing description of tho manner in which
the page at tho point of tho oinard,
wrcstod tho parchment ovidenco of this
conspiracy from ono of the conspirators,
nt a timo when tho Monarch was hold
ing Court, and wbon tbo Prime Minis
tor,almoatdcad withVago nnd chagrin,
fear and disappointment, had almost
ceased lo hope for succcbs. It was at
this moment that the page, wearied,
bleeding and breathless, rushes in be
hind Kichelieu and hands him thopareh
mcnt, which is laid bolbro tho Monarch,
who, for tbo first timo, learns that he
has been betrayed, and that tho army
of Spain is on tbo march to Paris. Ho
onys, "Good heavens, tho Spaniards!
Wliero will they bo next week?" And
Iticbelicu, rising up, exclaims : " There
nt my feet ;" nnd issuing his ordore for
the arrest of the conspirators, turns to
tho chief, and exclaims : " Ho, there,
Count lo Kara Jus, thou hast lost the
Btuke 1" and that stako was his head.
So whon wo discovered tho criminal
nature of tbis organization, and when
tho evidonce of this conspiracy was
brought forward to us by McParlan,
wo issued our warrants for tho arrest
of tho conspirators, and wo turned to
these men, with the Commissioner of
tho county at their head, and we said
to them, "II a I you have lost the stake."
They played a deep game and they
plnyod fur a great stako. They played
to secure tbo proporty of tbis county,
by ondangering tho hves of thoir fel
low citizens. They had agonts as
chiefs of nolico. and as Constables and
Commissioners, and thoy had one of
thoir number almost on tno ocnen
itsell. Cod alone knows what would
havo happened to ns if they bad got
ten him tliero, and tbon elected a Jury
Commissioner besides. With Mollio
Maguiroa as Judgos, and Mollio Ma
iruiroa as Constables, and Mollie Ma-
frtiiro as Commissioners, and Mollie
Mitguiros as witnesses, what would
have boon the history of this good
old oountvf Think of this for mo-

"Judgo Black was right, lie know

Never having hml tho privilego of
culling upon our readers to re-elect a
Democrat to Congress from this Dis
trict, wo may bo a lUtlo awkward
about it, and perhaps iifTcud some of
our parly friends while trying to do,
a wo believe, tho very best thing for
the party und the country, in culling
uxiii them to ussist in sending Mr.
Mackcy back to Congress, where (like
Oakca Ames' money) bo will "do tho
most good," udcr tbo incoming Dum-
ocrulicadininiBlratiiin. Personally, wo
bave no moro interest in Mr. Maukey
thun in John Smith, but, becanse he
has displayed more talent and legisla
tive lubor in the first six months of his
term, than any oilier momber we havo
had in a full term, in the last twenty
years, wo are for bim. In our judg
ment, bo has carnod a re-election, and
it has almost became a fixed rule with
both parties, lo re-elect Congressmen
when they have manifested a proper
diH)iositioii todiscbargo thoir legislative
duties in an honorable manner. Tins
we hold Mr. Muckoy hasdone. Wo bavo
laid his speeches before our readers,
and have listened to the criticisms of
bis friends and foes as to bis acts nml
voles in the House, and no ono con
demns him except a few who growl as
naturally lit every thingus they brenlhe.
It gives us pleasure to notice tbat bis
nomination i-jwlcd in Elk, Union,
Mifflin auj C'imu'ii, f course both
parties aro tor turn tbore and wo are
greatly mistaken if tbo larger portion
of our party Ai this county aro not for
bim also. Mr. Mackey's speeches on
the compL'tion of tbo Washington
Monument and on cheap transporta
tion, have attracted universal commen
dation. This ulono makes us feel
proud of our member, and wo now
movo thut bo bo nominated by accla
mation in the District Conference.
That is our motion, and wo will not
withdraw it at present.
AO USE.
Tho l'adical United States Senate,
by a vote of thirty -five yeas to twenty
four nays, out of soventy-five Senators,
has declared to the world that it makes
no difference how many bribes a Cabi
net officer may bave taken, under
Grant's Administration, it is no crime.
Tbo verdict in the Belknap case is duo
notico to the rest of the robbers to
double their diligence in that lino. A
more positive caso ot public crime was
never before uncovered than that
against tho lato Secretary of War ; and
yet tho Radical Senate, by nays and
dodjres, votes against conviction. Tbis
action of tho Senate, however, is in
keeping wilb the conduct of Grant and
bis Cabinet in tbo "crooked" whisky
transactions and straw bidders in the
posloflleo affairs. Thoso officers who
havo mado an effort to convict rogues
and refuse to givo ti,en any moro con
tracts, aro quickly removed from of
fice, and their places promptly filled
with men who nro in perfect harmony
with tho rogues. And yet we bear
tho stalo cry of relorm within tho Rad
ical party. Nevor I It is us impossible
for tbe party in power to administer tbe
government affairs honestly, and in ac
cordance with the Constitution and
laws of tho country, as it is for Boocber
to lead a virtuous life. Tho rogues
are in tbo majority, and will remain
there until the people rally in thoir
might at tbe ballot-box and turn tho
wbolo crew out ot office Tbcy will
certainly do this in November next.
Init tbe Badical thieves tako wanting.

Johnstown7JcmocT(i snys : "The effort
of Belknap's counsel to secure a ver
dict of acquittal from tho Court of Im
peachment, on the ground that ho has
only followed the example set by Pres
ident Grant, must be pleasant reading
for Schurz, Curtis and that class of
pet-'tonded independents who,aflor mak
ing loud pretentions to reform, are
now supporting the Administration
ticket. Bolknap, tbo publio are told,
is simply the outgrowth of Grant's Ad
ministration, and therefore should not
be held responsible. The Cincinnati
Convention Indorsed Grant's Adminis
tration, and Mr. Unyos in his letter
says that tbe resolutions accord with
his views. If Hayes should happen
to bo elected, be will be compelled to
perpetuate Grantism, and tho public
would bo told that Hayes should not
be held responsible, for the reason that
bo was simply tho outgrowth of
(rranlisin.
Yss, BirogM ! Ninety-four thou

whilo halt that number did tbe work
then. How long would a fanner or
any other business man bold out, il bo
had employed double tlio numbor of
hands this year that ho had in tho past,
and at higher wages? What business
nan is reckless onough to pursue a
policy of this kind ? Yot, this is tho
courso followed by Cameron, Grant &
Co., in tbo administration of govern
mental affairs. Wbat better scheme
could bo adopted to hurry on bank

That's true. Hut it is in tbo wrong

Mr. Ranch was tbo editor of a very

Ha.Vn.isH. Tbo Radical candidalo
lor President was a member of Con
gress whon the Credit M obi Iter robbery
was uncovered. An examination of
tho Congressional Record will show that
Hayes, with Ben Butler and forty-five
othor members, voted against even
censuring that band nf publio rob
bers headed by Oakcs Amos, who had
stolen forty millions of dollars ia one

ly Radicalism in this Stato was noarly

Attacking A Soi.pier. Col. Fred.
Grant has beon on a visit to his friends
in Chicago, lor several weeks past.
The Times, of tlmt city, in speaking of
this brave (?) soldier, says: "To see
Lieutenant Grant walking down State
street, switching a twenty-five cent
cane, fighting Indians and saving his
country, is ono of tho noblest nnd nob
biest sights under tbe sun." Fred is a
member of the Seventh Cavalry, which
was so badly used up by Sitting Bull
and his comrades. The pay of the
dead soldiers is stopped, but Fred's
still goes on. But, tbon, he belongs to
blooded stock. His lather is "the gov
eminent," according to Radical author
ity, and it's all right.
The Tai l Inwardness. Some peo
plo censured Grant very much for not
appearing at tbo Centennial on the 4lb
of July, us announced. It is whisper
ed that his friends woro informed that if I
"thegovernmeiit" could not be brought
to tbe grounds a little moro sober than
at the ofieiiiiig in May, that it noed
not como. Well, it did not go. Wowould
inter from wbat transpired, that tbis
is a reflection on brother Newman's
congregation, from tbe fact that the
leading member could not be straicht
ened up for the 4th of July. Well!
well! I
Alabama and Kbnttcky. Elec
tions were bold in these two States on
Monday tbo "th. The returns are yol
vory meagre, but we havo enough to
know that both will be Democratic,
from the fact that we bare increased
our majorities wherever hoard from,
showing that tho tide is rolling in fu-
vor of Tilden and Hendricks. Our
frionds in the former Stato put our ma
jority at 80,000. Grant bad 4,280 iu
18G8, and 10,820 iu 1872, but the Dem
ocrats carried the Stato in 1874, by
13,000, and are likely lo double these
figures this year.
Insipi RgroftM. An exchanircsavs:
"Green B. llauin, who has been ap
pointed Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue in placo of D. D. Pratt, is ono of
Babcock's cronies. Baboock's influ
ence at tho White Houso is as strong
aa ever." Well, if a relorm is to bo
carried on insido of tbo Radical nartv
by Babcock's butties, all will under
stand tbat it is not only a sham, but
that tbe crimes and robberies nerne-
t rated under Grant, are to be elaborat
ed under Hayes, should ho unfortu
nately be elected.
Mollio Maguireism is tbe leading
