"It li mid tbot 1,100 hunary Democrats on
aeekiag positions ia tho Bsuate." Aodieaf A'o
cAaaei. Well, the Democrats will have a
good precedent to follow: About that
number of Radicals have feasted at the
Senate crib for sixteen years, and the
editor indicated nevor set up a single
yelp about there being too many bands
At the bellows.
Whenever a Republican of the visit
ing-statesman type fuels the Deed ef
renting bis noble rage upon somebody
wbo cannot strike back and of giving
bis patriotism an airing, he rises ma
jestically and makes an assault upon
JefTorson Davis. When the bill was
up In tbo Senate on tbo morning of
March 3d to pension the veterans of
the, Mexican war, Mr. II oar, formerly
of the Electoral Commission, arose and
moved that Jefferson Davis be exclud
ed from the benefits of the bill "be
cause he bad made himself odious."
This, Mr. II oar doubtless thought, was
a fine and heroio stand to take. To
make Mr. Pavis the "arch-traitor" has
a certain advantage it gives tho
"Stalwart Republicans" something tan
gible to fling tbeir spite at Why be
should be bated more than General
Loo or Stonewall Jackson or General
Joseph E. Johnston bas never appear
ed, lie was not tbo author of Sccos
sion. no was only toe ny on me
wheel of a great movement. It carried
him as it did others. The causes which
lod to the war of Secession were root
ed in the eventa of fifty year before.
Nay, when tbo New England ships
first began to bring slaves from Africa
to the Colony of Virginia the seeds of
the war were planted. To make Jef
ferson Davis the cause of tbo war is
about as rational as to make Washing
ton the cause of tho Revolution. Sin-
gle men count lor little In great eras
like these. Jefferson Davis acted his
part according to bis idoa of duty
just as Robert E. Leo and Stonewall
Jackson did, Mistakes be may have
made in policy, as they did in the field
of war, but he never stained bis bands
with useless blood and novor dirtied
them witb any participation in frauds.
Ho did what be could to ameliorate
tbe horrors of the war and since Its
close has accepted imprisonment, de
traction, calumny, with unshaken for
titude. Sometimos, stung by unmerit
ed reproach and slander, he has bro
ken silence and every word that he
ha uttered baa been distorted and
misintorpretod by bi onomies for po
litical effect. For this reason we have
ourselves severoly criticised bis utter
ancos, knowing tbat tbey would thus
be used by an unscrupulous adversary.
A magnanimous toe would be oontont
to let him live out tbe remnant of bis
days in pcaco. The band of God bas
been heavy enough upon bim. Death
has invaded bis family and taken its
most cherished members; his fortune
bas been impaired ; bis health is in
firm. Is not this enough 7 let when
tbe United States is considering tbe
payment of pensions tojthe vetorans of
the Mexican war in which Jefferson
Davis rondorod knightly service-
Electoral Commission Hoar, stained
through and through with tbo infa
mies and perjuries of tbe Great Fraud,
arises to say tbat Jefferson Davis has
made himself odious and should be ex.
eluded from tbe benefit of tbe act. The
Fraudulent Administration that be
helped to count in has given office to
General Longatreot and Mosby. It
bas given a Cabinot office to Key.
Tbere km no principle at stake witb
Hoar. He merely wished to make a
cheap sensation by striking a broken
old man whose chief offense is tbe pa
tient dignity with which be bas borne
the booting and slander of bis ene
mies and who, despite all tbat may be
said of bim, is as much entitled to
gratitude for bis services on the fields
of Mexico a though be bad nevor rep
resented tbe people of the South in
their war for Independence. Balti

Lorrr Patriots. The minority re
port of tho Potter Committee seeks to
make a point by this statement : "No
man bas come forward to say that any
bribo was acceptod." Tbe assurance
required to make such an assertion can
be nedorslood by considering tbat
about every man connected in any
way with tbe manipulation of tbe elec
toral returns of the disputed Southern
. States, even to Bullock, the telegram
thiof, bas been cared for by Uaye.

circumstances, the least said about the

A Good Plae. The Now York

and ws are pleased to bear Mr. Kira
mel talk in this Jacksonian ityle.
Tbe Philadelphia Timet say : "Gov.
Pollock has been appointed Naval off!
cer for this port, to succeed John A.
Uiostand, whose second torra expired
a fow day ago. The highly original
agent of the Associated Press at Wash
ington informs the country by bis reg
ular press dispatch tbat Pollock's name
"will be sent to tbe Senate as soon as
Congress roassomblos, and bis confir
mation without delay is assured." It
i quite probable that Governor Pol
lock will be confirmed by the Senate)
as he should be, but it isn't dear out
side of all possibilities tbat be may fare
no better before a Democratic Senate
than he did before a Republican Son
ate. He will now be transferred from
not very tender merry of Cameron to
the uncertain mercy of Wallace, and
should there be a general smash-up
botwecn the Presidont and Congress,
there' no calculating now hew many
finger and toes may suffer in the main
struggles. There can be no substan
tial reasons given for refusing to con
firm Governor Pollock. There's noth
ing, or aoxt to nothing, to do in the
Naval Office, and he can certainly man
age to do that and maintain the digni
ty of the govern ment besides. Tbe ap
pointment of Pollock is a concession to
an element of tbe Republican party
that doesn't run witb tbe machine,
but tbat is very important to bavo run
alter the machine when wanted, and
Hayes exhibits his good sense by keep
ing it level in support of bis adminis
tration. Sensationalist. Tbere is something
exceedingly grotesque and ludicrous
in tbe way in which a fow Washington
correspondents pick up and repeat tbe
vaporings of the few unhappy Green
backers wbo ar running at large in
Washington oity. Tbe New York

tbis sort oi thing, but it i to be set

National leaders spin in bis vexed and

TUfiT HOROSCOPE.
Tho Baltimore Gazette lay : A so
called "horoscope" of tho Democracy
of 18H0 baa been cast by tbe entorpris
ing interviewers of tbe New York
Herald. Tbey have interviewed some
hundred Democratic members ot Con
gress as to their respective preferences
for the candidacy in the next Presiden
tial campaign. They find fifty -seven
against Tilden, thirteen wbo acknowl
edge him as tbe first choico and nine
to whom be will be acceptable. Thur
man is the first choice of fitly, while
to eleven he will be accepted. Hend
ricks is first choice of twelve and ac
ceptable to twenty-eight Bayard is
first choice of ten and acceptable to
nineteen. Forty-two have no prefer
ence, but will vote for the candidato
whomsoever he may be. It is said by
some that "figures cannot lie;" by
other 11 that tbore 1 nothing so
false as facts except figures." To stoor
between these two creeds we may say
that there Is nothing more dolusive
than Ibis particular array of figures.
It leaves out of consideration the fact
that the Southern Democrats will sup
port tbo nominee of tbo party who
ever he may be, and that, therefore,
their "first choico" is a secondary eon
sidoration. The problem is to nomi
natesuch a candidate as will carry New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Indi
ana and California, and not one of those
States except Indiana can be carried
by a candidate who bas any taint of
rag money about bim or in any way
inimical to tbe success ot resumption.
It was the maxim of Napoleon Bona
parte tbat victory belonged to bim who
was strongest at the critical point at
the critical moment. The great leader
can afford to be weak in some part of
tbe field but be must be strong at the
key of tbo position at the turning
point of tbe battle. The thing to do,
therefore, is to cast the "horoscope" of
the critical States. If Mr. Thurman
for example, can carry New Jersey and
Pennsylvania and Connecticut, he will
be a stronger candidate than the "first
choice" of all tho Southern States put
together.
Harrisburq Plunder. Mr. Howitt,
a Radical member of the Houso, lot off
a little truth the othor day. In allud
ing to tbo thefts perpetrated about the
Capitol, he said : "The pretence tbat
the 123,586 charged in tbe Auditor
Genoral's account a paid for House
stationery last year never was had by
the members. Three thousand to fire
thousand dollars would be a liberal es
timate for all that tbe clerks used and
tbe remainder was fraudulent. "Tbe
method of furnishing such supplies to
this Houso," bo said, "is porfectly in
famous," and be continued In roforonoe
to tbe handsome curtains, oosting $18,-
000, which bad hung last winter at the
House windows, but which were now
missing and could not bo accounted for.
Mr. Howitt vigorously dofended the
character of members and their free
dom from corrupt practices, but there
ape men ft bout tbe bill of whom all he
could say w : "Thoy wouldn't steal
what they couldn't reach." It is prof
ty evident, when a prominent Radical,
like Hewitt, speaks out in tbis manner,
tbat there has been some high-toned
tealing done at Harrisburg during the
past yeas. Jkow, then, will the rogue
be exposed and compelled to disgorge
their plundor ; or, will they be allowed
to furnish more stationery noxt year f
WHY THE EXTRA SESSION t
This is the universal inquiry. Gen.
Davis, editor of tbe Doy lento wn Demo
crat, who went through tho Mexican
war and tho recont rebellion, and was
riddled with bullets, knows what cor
rect government means. Ho says :
"An extra session of Congress be
comes nocessary, and is already called
for the IRtbof March, because l hero
was an irreconcilable difference bo
tweon tbe Democratic and Republican
parties about employing soldiers at the
polls. Tbe House placed an amend"
ment on tbo Army bill repealing the
obnoxious clauses of tbe act of 1805,
which tho Republican Senate refused
to agree to ( and as tbe difference oould
not be sottled by a committee of con
furence tbe bill full and an extra ses
sion became unavoidable. Soldiers
about the polls were never hoard of
uutil sinoe the war, and whilo tbe Re
publicans have had control of all tbe
branches of tbo Govornment Tbey
have so often used the army to save
tboir falling political fortunes, that tbey
cannot bear to have tbis, their last
prop, taken away. Of oourse thoy
would object to have a Democratic Pres
ident use tbis power at elections, but
as Mr. Hayes will be President in 1880,
tbe Republican politicians hope he may
be able lo pull tbem through with tbe
aid of the bayonet. Tbo military pow
er and terror at tbe ballot box should
cease, and it use is so foreign to our
system of Govornment tbat we hope
tbe noxt Congress will blot It out for
ever. Tbe purpose ot the Republicans,
in wishing to retain this power at tbe
polls, is purely partisan, and bespeaks
tboir wish to control tbe election by
military force. As long as the power
remains on tbe statute book there is
danger tbat it will be used. Tbore is
a fundamental principle of civil liberty
involved in this question, which the
Democrats maintain, but which we are
sorry to see tbe Republicans are willing
to surrender. Tbo record of English
history on tbis quostion goes back
about two hundred yeais, and begins
with an order issued by William Prince
of Orange, on January 5, 1C88, wber
in, and in ordor tbat 'eloctions may be
carried on with .greater freedom and
ithout any color of force or restraint, '
he commands all officers to march tboir
soldiers away and keop thorn away
from all places where elections are hold.
The subject was taken up severul times
subsequently by tbe English Psrlii
ment, and disposed of as the Demo
cratic House has disposed of it In Ei
gland soldiers are not allowed to re
main near tho polls, and tboir use to
keep the peaco at tho place of voting
would create a revolution. On the dis
agreeing acts of the two Houses over
tho principles thus deeply imbedded in
English law, Messrs. Howitt, Sparks
and Foster (two Democrats and ono
Republican) woro appointed a confer
ence committee on tbe part of the
Houso, end Messrs. Blaine, Allison, an
Withore (two Republicans and ono
Domocrat) a like committee for the
Senate. Why the two disagreed fully
appear in tbe remarks made in the
Houso by Mr. Sparks." ' Ho said

Our cotemporaries are very enlhu
siastio over tbis case, and no doubt en
joy themselves after the foregoing
delivery. We are unable to say
whether tho Democrats acted wisely
but tbis we do know: they bad at
least one hundred Radical precedent
to govern them. Tbo party that has
stolen one hundred members in tbat
way during tbe past eighteen years,
ihould pot be tbe first to yelp when

Trouble in York. Many of the
good people ot York, Pa., are in trou-
bio. The Dime Savings Institution
closed it doors on Saturday, the 8th
inst, much to tbe dissatisfaction of tbe
opositors. It appear tbat tbe de
mand of tbe past few days were in ex
cess of the collection. It is rumored
that the bank lost f 00,000 with Peter
Uordio. Tbe loss by failure of Cam-
bio & Son, Philadelphia, 1 123,000.
It is evident from this tbat Peter even
passed Harrisburg, and displayed bis
business capacities among the "York
dutch." He may have endowed Will-
iamsport, but the dime savers of York
ill not look upon him in that light.
Hard on tbe Commissioh. The ed
itor oi me Aitoona tribune save:
'Since the Columbia dam removal bill
bas been killed, tbe Lewistown Gazette
suggest tbat the Fisb Commissioner
stock the Susquehanna and Juniata
with salt herring and mackerel, and
pas a law requiring shad to have
wings so that tbey can fly over the
dam. We'll bet tbat Representative
uewit, in t fifteen-minute speech, can
convince the average legislator, parti
cularly those opposed to the removal
ot tbe dam nuisance, that tbe above
project are entirely feasible, so pro
foundly ignorant are they on the mat
ter of fish culture and protection."
A Good Idea. An exohange sug
gest this : "How would it do to set up
an India rubber effigy of Jeff Davis in
the rotunda of tbe Capitol at WashiDg
ton and let each Republican member
of Congress 'take a whack at it' every
day f This businoss ol mauling old
Jeff in debate has gone on 0 long that
it is becoming monotonous. But Coiik
ling the Magnificent and Blaine the
the Bignoeed letting fly at a gum effigy

r eks. A case of great importance has
just beon decided by Judge Pearson in
the Dauphin county Court In settling
up the estate of Daniel Hooker, doo'd,
bis executors filed tboir account, in
which tbey took credit for tbe pay
ment of funeral exponses and medical
attendance, amounting to 1110. Tho
balance exhibited was tho procoeds of
tbo salo of real cstato. The lions
against the real estate were more than
sufficient to absorb tho whole balance,
Exceptions woro filed to this item of
funeral expenses and modical attend
ance. Judge Pearson has filed an
opinion, in which ho decides that tho
preference given by the act of 183-1 to
tho claims for funeral exponses and
modical attendance during the last ill-
noss, applies only to personal oetate,
if the real estate be incumbered, and
tbat aucb debts have not a preference
over lions of record. Undertakers and
physicians cannot be paid for their
services out of the proceeds of the sale
of a deceasod person's real estate, if
the latter beencumbered by mortgages
and judgments sufficient to cover its
full value, and if the dead person is
not possessed of personal property.

"Chandler Scaring Davis." This
is tbo last sensation tho Radicals have
raised about tboso two worn out states
men. Chandler was tbe first man to
shed blood (in tbo Capitol at Washing
ton, but never on the field) when the
war broke out. Jeff Davis tramped
all over tho South, looking for Chand
ler, for four years, but no Chandler
crossed the Potomac or went near
whoro powder and ball were used. Fi
nally, Jeff conceived tbe idea of rig
ging himself in female attire, suppos-
ng, of course, that Chandler would
soon overhaul him. Hut Zach, like
many more of the "loyal millions,"
sent a substitute, another Michigan
dcr, to gobblo up Jeff. Zacb was too
cowardly to ever go tor tbo female

The case rofmrio W. Angell, tbe

falsified the books and accounts. When
thoy took it they thought of nothing
but restoring it, and in tbe meantime
no one would loso even the intorost on
it When it was lost, thoy sought to
oonccal tbe fact comforting themselves
witb tbe assuranco that to make it
known would do barm by creating
distrust and psnio. ilut Angell bad
nothing to pload. He was dumb as
tbe gravo, and thereby confessed that
in his deed he was sordid to tbe last
degree. He enjoyed a biifb social and
businuss standing, ho was paid woll for
nis services, uo naa abundant means
to secure tho ordinary pleasures of lifo

Tbe degradation to which his passion
reduced him was shown when ho

whined and fawned like a whipped cur.
Instead of displaying some sense of
decency and refusing to look in the
faco of tho man whoso gonorous con
fidence ho bad so grossly wronged, bo
begged like a cowardly miscreant to
seo Pullman, hoping, perhaps, for com
passion which be did not deserve.
An exact record of the thoughts of
sucn a mino as Angcll's would be a
valuable contribution to the data nt
social philosophers. It would be nrofiu
able, as well as curious, to seo bow the
sordid lust ot gold, reaching out like
arms of a devil fish, craduallv drew
into its foul maw all tbe nobler senti

which spring such acts of low villainy
as that in question. Tbore must bo a
