Dowxstic TnUTiis. Tho editor of
tbo PittBburg Telegraph, ono of tho Rad
ical organs of that City, in his issue of
Friday, slates tho case fairly to his par
ty friends in this way: M.S. Quay bas
been finally pensioned barring that
tho Sonato has yot to confirm bis nom
inationlor bis valuable services to tbo
Stalo ring. Gov. Hartranft yesterday
having appointed him Rocorderof Phil
adelphia, at a salary varying from MO,-
000 to $50,000, and ton yoars' term of
office. We ace no good reason why
Iho Legislature should not pension a
a few spavined hacks from the East on
Allegheny county. Thoy have juBt as
much right to deprive tho voters of one
county of Iho right to elect officials, as
the voters of another county. Wo lako
this occasion to record tho prediction
that tho Republican party will sco the
day when they will rogrot the pension
ing of worn out politicians. Tho timo
will como when a Democratic Legisla
ture will follow tho Republican exam
ple and thrust Democratic officials on
Republican communities. A Republi
can Legislature in Ohio set the example
of governing Democratic cities with ap
pointive Republican Commissions, and
tho present Democratic Legislature is
carrying out tho idea by putting Dem
ocrats wherever tho slightest opportu
nity offers. It will lie tho case in Penn
sylvania as soon as the Democrats got
control of tbo Legislature, and it would
not Btirpriso us to see thorn install Dom
ocruts in the principal offices in Alle
gheny and other Republican counties
under tho very convenient prinoipla of
the Quay Recorder bill.
The Peeling and Skjsiuno Lien.
Tho Rcnova Record says : "Tbo bill in
troduced in tho early part ot the ses
sion to securo lumbermen and laborers
a lien for tboir work, was .defeated, it
will be remombored, on account of its
too rigid provisions. Anothor bill bas
boen substituted by Mr. Quigley which
removes the main objections and still
secures the laborers' pay. Undor tbo
now bill all wages due for cutting, peel
ing, skidding, hauling, driving, railing,
and running of saw logs, square timber
or railroad ties shall bo a lien for six
months upon such logs, etc., and shall
bo paid for beforo removal. This bill
will bo pressed for final passage by Mr.
(Juigloy, and wo learn it is vory likely
to roach the Senate in timo ior its ac
tion." A more oppressive and foolish
measure was novcr introduced In a
Legislative body. Its passago would
pin every laboring man to the wall. If
this bill bocomos a law no operator
would employ a laborer until he would
sign his rights away under this act.
The bill is gotten up in tbe interest of
a few lumber Sbylocks about Lock
Havon, who neither employ men or
manufacture lumber tho middle men.
Settled bt a Caucus. The Radical
members of the House of Representa
tives, at Harrisburg, held a caucus on
Tuesday night of last week for tho pur
pose of agreeing upon a day tor the
final adjournment of the Legislature.
After nearly thrco hours' discussion a
molion to Bupport a resolution to ad
journ on the 24 lb of May was carried
by a voto 50 yeas to 39 nays. This
will prolong tbe session until very near
tbo last day upon which our law mak
ers can constitutionally draw pay for
their invaluablo services ; and proves
that tho Republican majority care much
more about their per diem than thoy do
abont attending to tho intoresla of tboir
constituents. Wore it not for the limi
tation set by tho Constitution, they
would undoubtedly sit permanently
or until their successors are clocted and
forco them lo vacate the seats they
havo in no way honored.
In Trouble. The SoliuBgrove
77m'puts it in this way : "The Repub
lican politicians are in a dreadful way
about Sonator Dill. They havo al
ready set np such an earnost fight
against him as If bo already woro nom
inated for governor. They anticipate
bis nomination, and are vainly striving
to defeat it And all tho Radical pa
pers havo been able so far to show up,
amounts absolutely to nothing. Thoy
cry "corporation candidate." Yot we
fool quite certain that any corporation
could bny more than one half of those
vory follows for a vory small sum. Tho
very tact that tbe Radicals are fighting
him in advance of his nomination, ia
one of the best signs in favor of hi
nomination."
A Good I'Aia.-The Democrats of
Adams county have Instructed their
delegates to vote for Hon. A. II. Dill,
of Union county, for Governor, and
"Unole Jake" Zieglor, of Bntler coun
ty, for Lieutenant Governor. This Is
a strong loam and we shall not fllo a
ingle exception, if it wins ia May
next, although "there are Iota" ol
other good candidate in the field.
Exactly so. Tbe editor of tho Lan
caster Intelligencer in alluding to a Leg
islnlivo pest &: "J. Murray Mivoro

The Verdant Sister. Miss Cathe
rine ., sister of Henry Ward Bcochcr,
aged (i7 yoars, waxos wroth on account
of the charges Mrs. Klizabeth Tilton
makes against her brolbor, and in a
card to tho Now York Tribune speaks
of his "purity and lovo of truth" whon
u boy. This is all right, and we ad
miro Miss Bcecher's fidelity to bcr
brother; but there aro a good many
who, nevertheless, will always believe
that, whatever Henry Watd may have
been as a boy, ho is anything but a
saint as a man. And in this connection,
by the by, tliero are those who have
not forgotten tho nauseating ecandul
another sister of Mr. Bcccher dished
up a short timo beforo her brother's ex
posure respecting tho "lute lamonted"
Lord Byron.' No ono over thinks of
Mr. Byron as a saint, but wo doubt ho
ovor did anything to justify Mrs. Stowo
dumping onhisgravcthemassof pntrid
filth with which she offended tho nos

of explaining the mystery which en

Justice at Last. Tho Pittsburg
Leader, in alluding to tho discomfiture
of the Union Pacific lobbyists at Wash

can Senate bas still the virtue to sund
Jay Gould, whocame down from Now
York jingling bis money-bags and open

Walpolo, that "overy man has his price,"

lions of bribery power and its myriads
of lobbyists skilled in applying that
power, and on tho other sido only tho
equitablo claim of tho United States to
the monoy duo it, the Pacific Railroad
"Ring" reeled out of the Senate cham

Thurman the hero of tho hour, and
that will give every patriot a thrill ol
satisfaction and hope tor the republic.
It was a glorious victory.
Tiie Trite Policy. Tho Philadel
pbia Record says: M. Loon Chottcau,
tbo distinguished Frenchman, who is
now in this city, has came to this coun
try on a mission of civilization. His
object is to promote profilalilo' inter
course between thiscountry and France
by pulling down tho restrictive, barri
ers in tho shape ot tariff legislation
which deface the statute books ot both
countries. It is bis desire to procure
for the pcoplo of the United States the
right to buy and soil in Franco upon
as fair terms as aro afforded to other
nations ; and to obtain a liko conces
sion on the part of our government
Trade is now mado impossible by offen

no nogroos and very few statesmen
This Radical Choctaw, dosirous of be
ing the author of something more than

ate compelling recruiting army officers
to enlist Africans as well as Caucasians.
But the Radical Sonato and the whole
army sat right down on him, and flat
tened him out so effectually that there
is nothing left of him but his whiskers.
But sovontoon out of the scvonty-six
Senators voted for the measure.
The Man. Sonator Sargont, of Cal

in hia way. Whon his party has
a particularly moan job to do,
its oyoa are at once turned toward

is tho attempt to kill the bill putting

ed all tho femule doctors in Washing

presented themselves the worse she

after consulting with hia patient, got
her to agree to tako tho medicine he
prescribed, and she has boen getting
better overy day since. Mary has be

Prlparinq roa Defeat. The West
vuenier uepwiucau iimiKB It will re
quire something more substantial than
political sentimcntalism to insure a
Republican victory this fall. "Tho
party," it says, "must be prepared to
wage an uncompromising, aggressive
contest Blow for blow must bo ad
ministered, and tbo man who is inca
pable of loading in Biich a contest, or
who cannot rally the working masses
of the party about him with enthusi
astic earnestness, bis nomination bad
bettor be deferred until some more
propitious season."
Newspapers. Tho National Union,

Gould's Loiibyibts The Washing
ton correspondent of the Kansas City
Times, in alluding to Jay Gould's lobby
efforts to defeat tbe measures before
Congress, compelling him and his con
federates to pay tho government its
just dues, says: "It is said that tbe
femulo branch of Jay Gould's Wash
ington lobby boasts an array of tho
handsomest women that were ovor
brought to bear in a whole broadside
upon the legislate n of this country.'

Wonderful People. Ii seems that
the wholo Iribe is again coining to the
surface of society ultor a four years
vacation, for the purpose of ro-liu-diiiig
tho old scandal. Bessio Turner, of the
"Celebrated Case" theatre company,
and Beecher-Tilton scandal fame, whose
iiamo on Iho bills is Bertha Avery, is
Strously ill with diplheriu.ut Brockton,
Massachusetts. Mra. Tillon has tele
graphed lo have a good nurse procur
ed, and everything possible done for
her.
A New Draiia. Plymouth Church,
Brooklyn, has a now pluy on th
boards. It is Henry and Flisabotb
alone this time. Theodora and tho
mutual friend, Frank, have been drop
ped out. Tho conduct of Beocher and
Mrs. Tilton, tor pure unadulterated
scandal, exceeds anything ever pro.
ducod in this country. Common mor
ality demands that those two vulgar
celebrities withdraw from society and
torment it no longer.
Chairman Mcl'lelland has secured
tho Pittsburg Opera House for the ses
sions of tho Democratic Stato Conven

and well adopted for convention pur
