Tin Dead. IUadino, Pa, March
24. Don. J. Glancy Jones died here
suddenly to-night at 10.15 o'clock, of
heart disobse, at tho reimlenco of bis
son, Hon. Richmond 1. Jones. Deceas
ed, wbilo Deputy Attorney General of
the Commonwealth, was elected to
Congress from the Berks district, and
served continuously, with a brief inter
ruption Iroin 1850 to 1858. In Octo
ber of tho latter year he was appointed
minister to Austria by Praisdont Bu

mittee of ways and means lor two

Hon. John Allison, of Boaver county,
register of tbe United States Treasury,
died in Washington of apoplexy on
Saturday morning. Mr. Allison was
born in this state in t lie year 1812. He
was a member of the State Legislature
for three years and was a member of
the Thirty-second and Thirty-third
Congresses. In 1875 he was the Re
publican candidato for United States
Senator.
Room run Rsfobm. Six years ago a
delegation of coal oil dealers notified a
committee ot Congress, (on Appropri
ations) ot which Mr. Sargent was
chairman, that by using coal oil instead
of lard oil in tbe Government light
houses and Naval slutions, and on the
frontiers, tho-Governmont could lave
one hundred thousand dollar! annually.
The exponse goes on. Reader, what
iln you suppose was tho reason assigned
by a Naval officer for continuing this
prodigal unnecessary expenditure?
Because it would cost 125,000 to change
and alter the lampi Why tho Light
House Board allows this huge fraud to
ho practiced on tho Treasury, is moro
than we can conjoctnre, nnless the
members of the Board aro lard oil pro-

Tut Tblx Grit. Tbe editor of the
Philadelphia CommonirraffA came np to
Ilarriaburg to take a look at our State
Committee and ''the Harrisburg ring,"
recently, and served a notice on tho
latter, that it must not "fix up," "out
and dry," nor "make up a slate," tor
tbo pooplo to swallow. In other
words : Ho put a chip on his shoulder
and strutted about town, in tbe Capitol
and the hotels daringany man to knock
It off. He so "intimidated and bull
dozed" tbe ringsters aforesaid, that not
a stnglo individual bad the courage to
step up to him and capture tbe chip.
A page could have accomplished this
ilarirg feat, yet, men were unnerved.
The potency of some men in the line of
bravado is incomprehensible..

The New Hampshire Ei.ectioh.
Tho election held in this State two
weeks ago, points as unerringly to the
course ot events aa the rising sun in
tbo morning. The vote cast was with
in ono hundred as large as at the Pres
idential campaign, tbus demonstrating
tbat the excitement was up to lever
beat. Tbe Radical majority for two
year past bas been 4,000. A canvass
of the returns shows that the majority
on the 12ih was only 1,431, while the
Democrats gain largely in members of
the House and the Senate. This donv
onu rates conclusively tbat another
election In riew Hampshire will send
Radicalism to the grave.

ot uselul legislation. Indoeu, mo en

respect, therefore, tbe work of the lal
nve tlays Das only coniurmen to an
every tlay example since tue nrsi
Tuesday ill January, it is now al
most tdreu months since tbe setutiuii
began, and it is impossible to point to
a single proper or DuneDcia) i mat
has yet became a law, except, perhaps,
the act to pay the aoldieie lor their
services during the riots of last sum
mer. The Republican majority seems to
be far more intent in pushing through
partisan schemes lor tbe benefit of cer
tain individual members ot tbe party,
than in devising measures of publiu
good. Among those partisan schemes
may bo mentioned tue inn to create a
bank department tor tho sole purpose ol
providing a snug berth for Cupt. Hurt,
the late defeated cundidale for Suite
Treasurer, and the Philadelphia lte
corder'a bill, for tbe spociul buboot ol
Secretary Quay, whose term ot office
will expire wilb tbut ot llartranlt.
Protest against disgraceful personal
pmiecta ' lliin kind is in vain, and it
is truly humiliating to Democrats to
know ibutevon inemDorsol tneirparty
have been found base enough to give
support to those measures.
According to tue present ouiiook, ii
is not probable tbat an adjournment
will take niece before tba middle or
last of May, and, considering the
dubious character of the majority, it is
not improbable that many other un
savory and mischievous projects may
be brought lortn ana lorceu tnrougn
by the influences that are usually so
potent and irresistible in all the sinister
and selnab acta ol legislation.
Tbe senate Committee of Investiga
tion is still inquiring into the matter
of the contract between the Auditor
General, Stale Treasurer and Attorney
General, of tbe one part, and Messrs.
Olmstcad andSimonion,oftheother,for
the collection of corluin taxes due ibo
Commonwealth by the Union Transfer
Co. Tho developments so far do not
show tbat the motives for the contract
were corrupt, or tbat any ot the off)
cials received any part ot the commis
sion paid to OlmBtead and Simonlon
liir tbeir services; yet the State author
itios are severely censured by many
for permitting themselves to be
overreached in the matter, and
for entering into a contract at
all with outaide parties to do what
they should have been prepared to do
themselves. It was, at best, an im
provident bargain for the State. The
worst feature tbat bas come to light,
is the five thousand dollar fee received
by Attorney General Leur from the
company, independent of the ten per
cent paid by the State to Olmstcad
and Simnnton. Tbo Attorney -General
claims that under the law he wis en
titled to five per cent, from the com
pany, but bis claim is gonerally re
gartled aa inapplicable to a case of this
kind, and nearly every disinterested
person who has examined the reasons
given tor taking this money, is con
vinced that Mr. bears conduct ia in
defensible In both law and morals.
From the manner in which this com
mittee of investigation was constituted
by the president of the Senate M r.
Cooper, many persons feared that it
work would be partial, and only result
in a "white washing ol the entire
transaction. The public will be grati
fied to learn that this is not likely to
he the case. Thus tar it must be said
that tbe examination baa been exhaus
tive and apparently conducted with an
honest view to ascertain tbe truth and
develop every fact tbat bears upon the
itiliject. w batever may hove been the
lesign of the man who made the com
mittee, it certainly has not shown a
disposition to conceal anything, or
suietil any on iroin mc juno conse
quences ot bis official action. Especial
ly can this be said of Senator Pcalo, of
your district, who was placed upon the
committee against his desire, but has
not shrunk from its responsibilities. A
large share ol tbe labor bas fallen upon
Mr. f eale, and be bas displayed great
ability and untiring industry In the
conduct of tha investigation. It was
altogether due to bis complete and
masterly examination ol Ulmstead tbat
the extra five thousand dollar fee of
the Attorney General waa unearthed,
and if there is to be any while wash
applied to ibis unpleasant business, the
constituent of Mr. Peals may rest fully
assured that be will not be the one lo
make the application. There will be
no remissness of duty on his part, hurt
wnnm it may.
Tbe calling ot the Domouratio slate
Convention to meet at Pitmburg, al so
early a day as tbe 22nd of May, is re
ceived wilb great tavor, and regarded
as the surest way to suocess in tbe ap
proaching campaign. In the present
uncertain and perturbed condition of
political affairs, nearly every thought

Oua U AEBisBuao Augurs. The Leg
islature hat wound up another un
eventful week in a most unovontful
and monotonous way, and offers no in
dication that it bad any intention of
adjourning finally. In the Senate sev
eral bills were passed on second read
ing, including that relating to the dis
position ot tbo proceeds of Sheriff's'
sales; that to prevent changes in
school books more frequently than
once in six years, it having been
amended tn include Philadelphia, and
that regulating the sale of olams and
oysters within tha State. In accord
ance with the new Constitution, this
is the last double aeesion ot tbe Legis
lature, and a majority ot the members
act as though tbey were going to stay
all summer. Tbo ono hundred day
allotment lor 11,000 will soon be up,
and after tbat time they are allowed
f 10 per day. Hereafter that body can
only meet once in two yoars, unless
convened by a proclamation of the
Governor, and hereafter biennial ses
sions will ba tbo rule. Hencs tbe de
sire of the majority to prolong tbo
session so as to pocket 12,000 as sala

A Square Steal. It is a fact fully
demonstrated that the taxpayers of
this Commonwealth, last year, through
the neglect and ignorance il nothing
worso, of the Attorney General, State
Treasurer and Auditor General lost
110,100 of their hard earnings. This
sum of money waa "cribbed" by two
political wharf rats named Siminton
and Olmsted, who, it seems live by the
offull tbey pick up around tbo Slate
Capitol. Besides il also appears that
tho Attorney General also received S5,
000 from tho other side of the case.

tho Radical organ of Huntingdon coun
ty, published at the borne of Mr Afri

tho Democrats nominato Mr. Africa
tbat there will be warm woik. He
says: "The prominent Republican can
didates for Secretary of Internal Af
fairs are Stone, of Warren, Jackson,
of Mercer, Billingsly, of Washington,
and Donley, of r reeno. Wo say to the
Republicans that the very bust man to
be found, must be nominated for this
office. It is more than probable that
the Domoerats will nominate our fel-low-townsman,
J. Simpson Africa
Esq., as their candidnlo, and he will he
hard to beat. With Mr. Africa in the

course. Ho bas an extended acquain

Tbe Indian CoMrxoEBAcr. Sitting
Bull, and other Indian officers have

Washington. The story is tbat this
wily chief baa organized a Confederacy
and baa joined witb bim tbe Sioux,
Blackfeet,Crow,and Nez PerccA tribes,
and witb Chiof Joseph as a Lieutenant,
will lead all these savage tribes against
tbe white Bottlers on the plains, just as
soon as they got rid of tbe five leet of
snow which bas impeded tbeir progress
lor tho past three months. This is a
very formidable array agninst tho laws
and the peace ot the Government, and
if tho Indian agents and their confed
erates can bring about such a state of
affairs, it will be done, because il is
something of this kind they desire, so
that they can replenish their empty
pockets.

of the proposed system will not exceed

of 119,000 out of the Slate Treasury,
under tho noses of three Stale officials

ed lo lite duties ol llie oHb eis ulready
elected by Ibe peoilo T Why may mil
every duty that is required of Ihc
Bunk Lotnmii-oiiitirr bo lic hurled h
tbo head of one or oilier ff the depurt
inenis now in bcng? The advan
tage thus attained would hu that
we would savo the expenses ol
of an addilionaldepiriment. When this
bill was nrsi introduced into ihe Sen
ate, the salary of tbo Bunk Commis
sioner was fixed althree thousand five
hundred dollars. I'nder Ihe influences
or effects ot the dtbule bad upon this
bill the committee have seen Hi to re
duce the salary tp three thousrnd dol
lars, nut,, Jlr. t'reaitlehl, they have
preserved the fifth suction ot the bill,
which in fact substantially exonerates
the Bunk ommissioner from the dis
charge of tli duties of his office in per
son. There can bo no necessity, it
seems to m?, liir the creation of un ad
diliotiu.1, a new and expensive depart
ment, wlim every duly that is placed
upon the department, every ugeney
lliat is given lo the department inuy
be given to either ot Iho ilcparinetita
now in existence fur instance the Ail
dilor General's Department or the l
partinent of Interim! A Hairs; anil the
publiu thia get every service that can
be given iinlcr this bill. I say there
is mi neceasiiy whatever fur it unless
it be a political and partisan necessity
fiir making a place tor some political
tuvnrite. That this bill is intended to
establish a sinecure for some favorite,
I think i plsinly written in the
tilth sectior, which reads as follows:
The Deftity Bank Commissioner
shall have authority during the an
aence or inability of the Bank Com
niissioner, or during a vucuncy in that
office, to discharge the duties attached
by law to the office of his principal.
Does it say that the pay of tins Bunk
Commissioner shull cease when he
ceases to discharge his duties? Doesil
say that the Bank Commissioner shall
mil draw bis pay when be fulls to die
charge the dulica ot bis position ? No.
sir; but it simply says tbut bo may
not dii-chargu his duties and that bis
duties may be discharged by his depu
ty and meanwhile he may draw his
three thousand dollars a year. The
lime was when legislation was for the
public good, but now the great prob
lem ot statesmanship is how to pro
vide for tho party iicta at public ex
pense. Bui let us look at this matter
in another view. I have said tbnl
there was no necessity liir the bill, be
cause the Auditor Genal, by the act of
I8tb, had large powers, which powers
could be supplemented and the labor
be performed by clerks who would not
cost the State one tenth part of what
is required here. But I submit that it
is unnecessary for another reason. Mr.
President, when tins bill was original
ly drawn It included, private banks or
iiuiiking couiiHiiilen private bankers
Well, all over the slate urose a hue
and cry from private bankers, so Mini
tho gentlemen wbo bail charge ot this
bill were obliged, in order tn secure its
passage, to strike out private bankers.
Well, when they struck out private
hankers, which was from necessity,
they lei t what? Why rjlale banks.
.Now, Mr. t'reaidunt, if 1 am correctly
informed, there a'.v lm! somewhere be
tween forty and sixty in the Common
wealth, 1 think between lorly and fit
ty. Therefore ia there such a necessi
ty for the inspection and examination
of this limited number of hanking in
st ilu lions that a department should be
created r
Think, ot it I Here is three thou
sand per year fur the Commissioner,
one thousand eight hundred dollars lur
Deputy Bank Commissioner und nine
hundred dollars lor a Moaseuger. 1 hen
it is provided in the fourteenth section
thut the traveling and incidental ex
penses of ibis department shall be paid
ny tne male treasurer upon the cor
tihVato of the Bank Commissioner,
whonover the fund received from the
collection of penalties aball prove in
suthYionl to defray the same. Ami the
annual sum of one thousand dollars is
appropriated for the contingent cx
pense ot tins department, but the con
lingont are not limited to the amount
..roiriitt. Wa have, then, Mr.
President, the three thousand dollars
and the ono thousand eight hundred
dollars and the nine bundred dollars, to
which is to be added the running ex
penses. It M shown that the expenses
ot tbe Insurance Department per an
num are about seven thousand ilollurs.
It is fair, then, to assume thut the ex-
pciiBoaof this department will be about
the same sum. We have, then, in
round numbers, thirteen thousand dot
lars tbat this new department is to
tost the Commonwealth tier annum
lor the service which minht be ren
dered by the Auditor General's de
porlmenl without a dollar of additional
expense. But, say tbe friends of this
bill, "We have repealed the law ereu
ting the olHce of Bank Assessor, and,
therefore, we save money enough to
nay the expenses ot this department."
But, Mr. President,' the assessment of
the banks has yet to be made. The
duties of the Bank Assessor have yet
ut be duscharged it other lorms at an
expense, doubtless, equal to that which
ut present It costs the Common wealth ,
and why then Is It that, In the lour
teettth section, the travelling and inci
denial expenses ot this department
shall be paid so and so. 1 take it, sir,
that the assessments are to be made
at an expense to the Commonwealth
equal to what it cost under the old
Uw, and that the additional expenses
wuicn i nave enumerated In this bt
aro to be added.
Now, Mr. President, when the bill
was Introduced, tha term of the Ban k
Commissioner was tor four rear. An
amendment waa offered hy the Senator
reum Union lur. Dill to reduce it
to two years. Then our friends on
the other side,' lo demontipute to ns
bow complete was their mastery of
this vote, -chose to amend to' make it
five years ; and thev so amended it
Subsequently, on their motion, the bill
was recommitted to the Committee on
Finance, and was returned to Ut with
tbe term restored to four years, anil
tbe salary reduced Irom three thou
sand five hundred' d liars to three
thousand dollars, showing tbat himhi
the minds of our friends on tho other
side of the chamber there has been a
little repentance working, and the on
ly trouble that wo have about it is
that their repentance bat not brought
iortii works meet for repentance. Hy

Boston, March 18. A heavy rob
bery was committed this afternoon
in the Lechniore National Bank, in
Kast Cambridge. About 2 o'clock
t'resident Lewis liull was silling in
the purlorot the bank, tbo business ol
ihe day being done, and be was about
putting up his bisiks, arranging papers
or depositing money in the vanli.when
a buggy containing a man and woman
drove up to tbu Cambridge street en
trance. Ibe inun entered and request
ed Hull to step to the diMir to see the
lady, who tb-sired lo transact aume
hiMiie-ia. Hall walked to tbu side
walk, the man accouiiiunyiiig hint
The woman said she desired lo pur
chase a ilrull on u Providence bunk,
und begun in a deliberate mutincr lo
count a roll of money. 11. ill sunl l.i
could nut wail while site cutintud tbe
moitey, ami returning lu his riaini sui
down lo wail. In a low minutes In-
heard the huge;)' drive hurriedly oft.
Suddenly stisieciing something wrung.
he made a burned examination, and
found that a small trunk which a
moment before had contained (3.1)011
bad been rifled. A further examina
tion showed that two trunks which
were in the vault, the door of which
stood partly open, had been abstracted.
Iho trunks contained Government
bunds and other securities amounting
to $15,000, the property of different
individuals left in the custody of Hall
liir sate keeping. From titcta since
ascertained il is supswoil the robbery
was done hy three men and tho woman.
It is thought thut two men were con
cealed behind the door in the hall ol
the hank building when the President
passed out, and though be could nut
have been absent above two minutes.
they succeeded in gutting off witb the
money and securities.
Alarmed It is a remarkable fact
that voters of Philadelphia tend more
mean ignorant men to the Legislature,
than are sent from any other section
of the State. The editor ol tbe Record
is becoming alarmed at the conduct of
the members and breaks out in this
way: "Real estato owners, mortgage
holders, mortgage sellers, builders, ma
terial men, conveyancers and all oth
ers interested in the prosperity of
Philadelphia should to day take time
lo write to the Senator representing
their Senatorial districts protesting
againat the amendment to the me
chanics' lien law as it passed the House.
Those who have not time to write
should telegraph. Remember, tho in
iquity is only to bo inflicted npon Phil
detpbia. What tho mass of tbe cititcns
of thia good city have ever done to be
so continuously cursed by pernicious
legislation we aro at a loss to under
stand." Truth Fhom a Stranob Solbcb

This man Gen. Howard is the supra
most humbug that was ever put upon
a war Hailing. He is however a ninich

has also piped out. The former was
christened by his confederates in plun
Jur as a "Christian Soldier," and the
latter a "Christian Statesman." No
other two of our pnblio mon of ten
years ago aro under a darker cloud, be
cause of their rascality.
He'll Drop Georgo V, Lawrence,
of Washington county, is a Slate Sen

"He bat carried hit own county for
Governor, and sent a colored delegate
to press bit claims. His convention
swallowed the new silver dollar grace
fully, but gagged awfully at Hayes'
delusive pacification policy. The chiof
delusion prevalent out that way just
