of the judges thereof, and in such pen

of all duties enjoined upon them by

propriation of all county and other
moneys which the said Commissioners

county treasury, upon check or orders
given by them, or over which they
have control ; the said bonds to be tak
en in tho name of the Commonwealth

acknowledged before tho Tteoorder of
Deeds of tho samo county and recorded
in the office at the cost of the county.
Tho official crookedness practiced hy
a number of Commissioners, in other
counties, the past ten years bos
brought the passage of this law, so as
to enable the county to bag something
alter conviction. As tho law now
stands a Commissioner can be ever so
crooked and a little bit ol jailing is
about all that can bo done, if he is found
guilty. Hereafter the tnx payors can
go fur his sureties.
iVTHUKRADiCAL.-TheChiengo Time:
refers to the dismissal of Lieutenant
K. W. Maxwell from the 1 niled States
army lor drunkenness us one of Mr.
11 ayes' "special cases." It seems that
among other extraordinary perform
ances of Lieutenant Maxwell was that
of drawing pay several times for one
month. Tbo history of the ex-Lica-tenant's
career runs about as follows :
He had been a ufember ol the Spring
field, Massachusetts, police lorco, be
came a corrupt special constable of the
State io the jcy of liquor dealers, so-
oured a place in the T'nitcd States se
cret service bqrjau, joined tbo church,
married, accompanied William EChan
dlar to Florida, helping that budding
statesman to steal the State for Hayes ;
was detailed to aocompany the Presi
dent elect on bis journoy from Fremont
to Washington, and last Summer was
appointed from civil life to the Lieu
tenancy in the army. This was done
just after West Point had graduated a
large class for which no places could be
found. The young man turns out as
might have been expected, and the
President has no apologies to make to
tho public. But then he promised to
reform the civil, and the Maxwell ap
pointment was in the military service.

A Bad Indicator.. -Aooording to
Dunn Barlow's mem,ntile igrcy
circular, the failures in tbia State lor
the past six months were 564, with
(17,117,010 liabilities, against 383 lai
urea and $8,268,830 liabilities for the
same months of last year. The in
crease may be partly accounted for on
account of tbo repeal of the bankrupt
law, and partly bocause ol tbo failure
ol the party in power to meet the de
mands of the limes. A oommencoment
of the return to prosperity cannot laks
place till the party that bos brought
the bard times on is put ont of power.

Tbo editor of the Huntingdon Mon
itor punclioa his neighbor of tho Journal
in this way : "A recent issuo of the
Journal censures Mr. Hill, our citndU
Ltlogate in a Democratio Hiate Con
vention, held, at Uarrisburg, in Febru
ary, 1WG1. Tho Journal publishes a
resolution, which it says wus adopted
by that convention, strongly deprecat
ing the civil wur, which then threat
eni'd our land, and also expressing the
opinion that tho Union could not bo
maintained by foroo of arms. Now, is
it not most remarkable that the Jour
nal censure Sir. Dill lor havWg sup
ported that resolution, when wo take
into consideration the fact that tbo
Hon. John' Scott, thou a resident of
this town, aud the Hon. John Cessna,
of Hod ford county, were both dulogatos
in that convention, and voted for the
same resolution? Mr. Scott not only
voted for the resolution, but be made a
speech in support of it, Tho Republi
can parly has honored both Scott and
Cessna, since their support of that res
olution, by electing the former to tho
UniUid Stales Sonato, and the latter to
Congress. The Journal strongly urged
Mr. Scott's eloatlon to tho United
States Senato, and for years past it has
given him an earnest and zealous sup
port. And yet, strange to say, it
censures Mr. Dill for doing just what
Mr. Soott did In a Democratio State
Convention, seventoon years ago. O,
consistency, thou art a jewel!"
Tub National Robber. Tho Trus
tee of the notorious baukrupt firm ol
Jay Cooke, & Co., is preparing to di
vide what is lolt among the plunder
ed creditors. Tho Philadelphia Record
in alluding to the case says : "Tho oom-
mitteo appointed by the creditors of I
the bankrupt firm of Jay Cooke & Co.
has called a meeting of all the credi
tors, to be bold on tho 22d ol July, at
433 Chestnut street. At this conven

submit a statement of the bankrupts'
creditors as proved since the last re
port, and of tho property and estate of
tho bankrupts converted into money,
or realized and collected since the last

such as may be outstanding, specifying
the cause of its being outstanding; also,
what debts or claims are yet undeter

A Queer Case. TheSuprome Court
ot this Stato recently disposed of a
queer case. A lady riding in a street
car had to stand np. The car stopped
suddenly and she full pvor, breaking
her knoe pan. She sued for damages.
Tlia company claimed contributory
negligence on ber part, In that she did
not take hold of the strap provided for
standing passengers. She set up, on
the other band, that she could not
reach or bold the strap, owing to the
stays which she wore, and that, with
the present fashions, no lady could do
so, at least without inconvenience and
possible Injury. The lower court de
cided that tbe lady, in taking bold of
a fellow passenger's band, bad done all
that was necessary, and that, under
the circumstances, she was not obliged
to stretch up to tho lamp. It award
ed hor $2,000, and tbo Supreme, Conrt,
reviewing tbe caso, declines to interfere.

PETER I1ERV1CS LAMEST.
Tbis celebrated Williamsport 'vx
millionairo bos issued an address,
blaming bis bankruptcy and misfor
tunes upon other people ; chiefly tbe
Government, and more particularly the
'Democratic administration' of Andrew
Johnson. If bis other allegations and
figuro statistics aro as void of tho trutb
as tbis declaration, his three-column
letter had bettor not be studied by
Sunday School children, or adults who
have spent a great deal of timo and
money in tho lobby of tho State Legis
lature. Peter finds fault with tho Govern
ment, alias the Radical party, ot which
be Is a-bright ornament, and assisted
to concoct tho very policy which bo
claims ruined him. If he wanted to
Ing politics into his buisnoss affairs,
why did ho not tell the naked truth,
and allow the reader to draw his own
conclusions as to what caused his
bankruptcy.
Tbe fact is, Peter lived too last. His
modo of business was a kind of Mollio
Magtiircism, which, if practiced to Its
legitimate end, leads to bankruptcy
just as sure as it does to tbo gallows.
His confessed oconoiny in early life,
and bis greut experience havo all end
ed in misfortunes, and like thousands
of others who have led a similar fast
life, he, Adam like, puts the blame
upon others.
The Wav to Bridoe the Bi-oonr
Chasm. Tbo Bedford Gazette, in al
luding to a Fourth of July celebration
in that county, remarks: "It is a bit
ter pill for the advocates of tho san
guinary rag to see a distinguished cx
confedorate General and a gallant Un
ion Colonel sitting side by side on the
platform at a Fourth of July celebra
tion. Such a scene was witnessed at
Woodbury, this county, on Thursday,
July 4th, whon General Imbodon, of
Confederate oavalry fume, and Colonel
Higglus, of tbe 84th Pennsylvania Vol
unteers,, occupied a seat together at the
celebration at that place. General Im
bodon was not only prusont on that in
teresting occasion, but be delivered an
addross full of eloquence and patriot
ism. Let us have more of this union
of hearts and union of feeling; then
the harrost will surely be peace, bap

learning something. They wore afraid
that he has been wasting timo, loafing
around with those ignorant, unscrupu
lous kings and nobles over there. So

The Wat the Monev Goes. Thero
is such an officer at Washington as tho
Presidential barber who is paid Irom
tho Federal TruaMiry. The office was
established by Grant and is continued
by Hayes. The barber attends lo no
other duties than those pertuining lo
his profession and which aro required
at Ihc While House, yet he is carried
on tho Treasury roll as a cleric. Un
dcr Grant ho was ratod as a $1,200
offi inl, but Hayes has prompted him
to a $1,400 berth. It is thus that Iho
people's money Is squandered while
want Is sturing thousands in the fuco.

triot remarks: "In vindication at least
of tbe 'truth of history' it is proper to
say that Hon. John Fertig, Demo
cratic candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, was not thrown from a horse,
but in dismounting stepped upon a
round stone, which resulted in a pain
ful spraining of the ankle joint, not so
serious, however, as to be likely to
confine him to his house many days.
The Stono ho will run against next

much less injury."
