Hon. John Welsh, Minister te En

turn homo.
Dead. Hon. Bland Ballard, Judgo
of tbo United States Court, died sud
denly at Louisville, Ky., on tbo 29th
nlu He was born in Shelby county,
in Soptembor, 1819, and removed to
Louisville in 1810, and was appointed
Judge by Lincoln in 1801.
An exchange says : "Miss Stanton,
a daughter of Elizabeth Cady Stanton,
is to be one of the lecturers next win
ter. Miss Stanton has bad five years
training at Vassar L'ollego, and two at
the Boston School of Oratory." She
is certainty flnirshed.
Disloyal Milk. Some loyal jour
nal exclaims: "It is now claimed that
some of tho newly appointed Socond
Lieutenants 'imbibed disloyalty in
their Infancy.' Secretary McCrary
will have to look to this matter of dis
loyal milk. It menaces tho stability
of our institutions."
A TTiavt Purchase Ansxcbantro
says: "In pushing ahead the work of
improving the roadway, the rsnnsyl
vania Railroad last week purchased
botwoen thirty-five ond forty acres of
ground at liryn Mawr, about nine
miles west of Philadelphia, paying at
thai rwlH nr 12.1)00 ywr evure, ur nbvut
$100,000 for the whole."
Sarcastic. The Washington Post
sides in this way : ''Tho Philadelphia
Timet nominates Goorge V. Cbilds for
the English mission, utterly regardless
of tho faot that there would be no fit
person in this country to look after
General Grant s presents if be should
aocopt the appointment."
A Pardon. It is announced that
Governor Iloyt has pardoned Donnis
F. Canning, of Schuylkill connty, con
victed of conspiracy to murder sovoral
years ago, in conjunction with Jack
Keboa and other Mollis Maguires.
Canning was sentenced to fourteen
years in the Schuylkill county prison
on two indictments sovon years on
each.
A Radical Devt op Doves. An
exobango says : "John Sherman is at
Belfast, while Agnes Jonks is summer
ing in Washington. Eliza Pinkston
has taken ber tub to a prominent Lou
isiana watering place, where sho is the
observed of all observers. Simon Cam
eron is at the White Sulphur Springs,
but tho Widow Olivor docs not accom
pany him this timo."
The New Chairman. Congress
man CofTroth and Daniel O. Barr, our
nominee for State Treasurer, mot in
Pittsburgh on the 2d Inst., and ap
pointed ex-Senator George W. Miller,
of Washington county, Chairman of
the Democratic State Committee. The
Committee has been called to meet in
Pittsburgh on AuguBt 7th, and head
quarters will be established in that
city.
Another Brwarded. The Wash
ington Port says: "Wt fool authoris
ed to announce that Minister Welsh
will be succeeded at the Court of St.
Jamea by Hon. Wayne MacVoagh, of
Pennsylvania. Mr. MaeVeagh, it will
be remembered, was the head of the
celebrated Louisiana Commission, and
be baa nevor been rewarded for bis
saoriBoe. Now is the accepted time
to redress the wrong."
Always Loaded. The Washington
Pott remarks: "The Now Tork Sun,
with its accustomed enterprise, trotted
" out another Presidential candidate
yesterday in the person of Mr. William
M. Everts. As an offset, it will prob
ably by to-morrow, sit down in thun
dor tones upon an aspirant about the
site of Sanford E. Church. The Bun
can thus, we think, bo relied on to pro
servo the balance ot Presidential power
scrupulously.

Doubtful Honors. A cotemporary
remarks : "Cblof Justice Chase's grave
at . Oak Hill, near Washington, is
marked simply by a block of gray
granite, bearing only tbo record of his
Ibirth and death following his name,
TheoJ oould hardly be a plainer monu
ment wr one in better taste." Well,
he did more to propagate the damna
ble fallacies of this country negro
freedom and Uie Issue ot paper for
money than all the mon that ever
aspired to statesmanship, llo has
already more marble at his tomb than
. he evor deserved at the bands of the

BELL'S GAP RAILROAD.
MORE ROMANTIC NAMES WANTED.
A correspondent of tho l"liilitdolilii
Timca, writing Irom Allouna, luw this
to say of Boll's Gup Railroad :
This road is a real triumph of engin
eering skill, cutting its way up the
steep sides of the mountain, over deep
ravines on dizzy trestles, and shooting
into the vory depths of tho dense forest
that embroider all the lands hereabout.
As the train comes to a particular ele
vation here or there the view present
ed of tho valleys hundreds of feet bo
neath is magnificent in tho extremo.
One nay go many miles away from
Pennsylvania and find nothing to equul
it The railroad to the summit of
Mount Washington ia much more of a
marvel in itself, but tho ride is not as
pleasant as over the Bell's Gap Nar
row Gauge, and there is nothing in the
White Mountains tooxcocd tbo beauty
of theso bills and valleys as soon from
one of Superintendent Ford's observa
tion cars on a Summer afternoon. The
cars are drawn up hy powerful little
engines, and thon return alone, regula
ted by secure brukes at tho will of tho
party. The sonsation of this down
trip is one worth going anywhere for ;
it is not one of fear in any sense, but
of inexpressible delight. Tho draw
back to this country is tbo absenco of
romantio names. Bell's Gap is too
homely to attract much, and as you
tide around anil up tho mountains you
aro surprised that few of tho peuks
have names, and those few not at all
ot a romantio sort. Aftor a little more
than eight miles of steaming upward
you como to Lloydsvillo, and that isn't
romantic. If the pooplo who have
built this handsome little railroad up
into thoBO magnificent hills would only
pick out some new and musical names
for their road, for the mountains
brought into viow, for their beautiful
pio-nio grounds at the summit, and
above all for the town up there, and
then throw in a few old Indian legends,
the road would hardly bo able to ac
commoduto tho rush of Summer tour
ists. More and more every year, how
evor, peoplo como hero to enjoy the
beautiful attractions. Altoona Sun.
"Smiler" Coi.pax. This versatile
domagogue and boss Crodit-Mobiliur
stock dealor is now lecturing beforo
camp-mecptings on the novel subjoct of.
tbo Panama Canal project. An ex
change remarks : "He, it will be re
mombcred, was at, one time Vice Pres
ident of tho United States, and now and
then turns up to display, somo pecu
liarities of intellect not altogether such
as the people would like to see from a
man who once occupied bis exalted
poeltion. JIo addressed a Chicago
camp-mecting the other day, and
strangoly enough to those who don't
quite understand Mr. Colfax, be fell
into a discussion of the Panama Canal
project. Of course a subject liko this
could not bo of very much concern to
a camp-meeting, but it appoarcd to
weigh heavily upon the ex-Prosidont,
and he did as much as he oould to re
lieve himself of the terrible burden by
expressing tbo hope that the canal
would nevor be coustructod ; he is bit-
terry oppoeMMa to it, avnol wiabad ittn
mountains wore high enough to de
feat the project, because be bolieved
the natural highway botwoen Europe
and Asia was across the American
Continent. Mr. Colfax evidently wants
people to understand that he is still in
the pay ot one of the Pacifio Iiailroad
Companies, but why he should select
an innocent camp.moeting as the place
to advertise his weakness is something
that appears inexplicable."
Hypocrisy. The liellolonte Demo
crat remarks : "In ono of tho resolu
tions of the platform adopted by the
late Republican Stato Convention, a
most pitiful call is made upon the 'vet
eran soldiers of the Union' to resent
the removal of their woundod compan
ions from offico by the Democratic
Congress, notwithstanding the fact
that this samo Democratic Congress
has more woundod soldiers of tho Un
ion an its pay rolls than evor a pre
vious Republican Congross had. While
upon this subject of tho expulsion of
woundod soldiers from office, would it
not, at tho same time, have boon as
well for these indignant gentlemen of
the Republican Convention to turn
their attention a little nearer homo
than Washington, and givo vont to a
small portion of their hot wrath upon
the late removal of Iiobert Boatty, a
one-legged bero of the war for the
Union, from a clerkship in tho Stato
Department at Harrisburg. Mr. Boat
ty was removed to make way for a
stay-t-bome-during-the-war,wbomut
be provided with a place, for no other
reason in the world than bocauso the
latter happons to be a favorite and
henchman of Boas Quay. Out upon
such glaring hypocrisy I"
Sherman's "Boom." The Provi
dence Prut (lndopondont), says : "It
will be noticed that Mr.,bcrraan gets
very little in the way of unqualified
praiso, and nobody seems to admire
the speaker or the speoch. As the
latter was a part of the ' boom,' Now
England is surprijed that the Secreta
ry discussed chiefly past events. His
political allusions have not given satis
faction. The effoct of tbo spoech will
be such as not to improve Mr. Sher
man's political cbanccs in New En
gland. Meanwhile he is very much
respected as a Socrotary and as a finan
cier. If Mr. Shorman intendod to
'oapturo' New England, bo, bas failed,
and ho has failed because bo took up
an outside position. In New England
it is customary to treat Democrats and
Southerners, including the cx-robcls,
with the ntmost good faith and cour
tesy." Egotism. Secretary of the Treasu
ry John blierman bos introduced a
novolty in politics, ne is on an eleo
tioneering and specch.making tour
along the Now England coast on a
revenue caller, claiming tor himself
the sole crodit of specie resumption,
just as if be owned the farm in foe sim
ple that turned ont the product which
changed the balance ol trad to large,
ly in our favor and made resumption
possible.

PRO BONO PUBLICO.
Tbo editor ul the Clearfield ilzi'UD
lican is n wonderfully smart man, and
ho thus authoritatively explains tho
significance of the financial plunk in
the liemocrtitic Stato 1'lntlorm :
Tha tnaoolal plank Ib tho ptalfurai la Iba

thing abuut polltlea koowa that If either senator
Wallaoo or Kpaaaer handali bad framed a plat

whiob nailber of thatn would hara beea ailoot.

Franoia Bayard, of Dolawaro.
Wo beg leavo to tell tho Republi
can that tbo financial plank In that
platlorm was mauo without any rotor
once to tho views of Mr. Wallaco or
Mr. Randall, and without any regard
tor the interests of any Presidential
candidate. Tho gentleman who fram
ed it originally had no such intorosts
in viow, and wbatover his inclinations
may bo on tuo i'rosiuentiul nomina
tion Iboy did not affect his efforts to
procure a sensible deliveronco on tbo
money question. It is no "history'
that Mr. Barr and those of his way ot
thinking paid no attention to tho plat
form. On tho contrary they wero
solicitous to bare it strong and sound.
The Committee that considered it rep
resented all Bhados of opinion on
finance and on Presidential nomina
tions, and alter a full and frank dis
cussion it wus adopted with but one
dissenting voice and so recommended
to tho Convention, and adopted by it
with almost liko unanimity. Senator
Bayard's friends, as such, had no more
to do wilu its construction than sena
tor Wallace's. Senator Thurman's. Mr.
Tildon s or Mr. Randall s. It was the
belief of tho Convention that it was
broad ouough for all earnest and hon
est Democrats to stand upon. We are
sorry it the editor ot tne kkvuiilican
feels crowded on. Lancaster Jntetli
genccr.
How scholastio the caption I " Tho
gentleman who framed it" neither con
Bulled Wallace or Randall. "Jowbilli-
kensl" Ol course wo feel kind o'
crowded out, because that "sensiblo
deliverance" is of such a high-toned
character that us plobians cannot com
prchend it, nor can wo learn who is
tho father of the child.
A Clear Case. The "bloody ehirt"
leaders are always railing out against
the "Confedorato Brigadiers," and try
ing to alarm thoso who rely mainly on
ponsions. Tho following ia a caso in
point, and every neighborhood can
point to a similar ono. The Washing
ton Post says : "The Now York papers
montion tho case of tho widow Lewis,
of Phienix, in that Hlate, who had five
sons, all of whom entered tho Union
army and wero killed. Sho had never
received a pension, but had becomo
very poor and was dependent upon
charity. Tho passago of tho Arrears
of Pensions bill camo to her relict. She
drew 81,300 back ponsion, and is guar
anteed a ponsion in tho futuro of 9G
per year. Year aftor year that old
woman struggled along in her pover
ty. Tho Republican party had full
control of all departments of the Gov
ernment. They passed private pen
sion bills to aid hundreds of women
who bad sacrificed far loss than she,
and who wero rich as oomparod with
her. It was not unlit the 'red-nandod
robols,' the 'Confederate Brigadiers'
took the place of Radicals in theUouao,
that ber caso, and many otbor similar
cases, obtained recognition. It will
not be easy for Radical demagogues to
make the neighbors of Mrs. Lowis be
lieve that those 'Confederate Briga
diers' aro 'full of hatred and malice
towards tho North.' "
Precept and Practice. Soon aftor
His Fraudulency was seated by the
Commission and Mrs. Jenks, he struck
out for a decidod reform by his admin
istration. The following lettor to his
subordinates tells it all ;

The facts aro that ball of his Cabi

this circular as they wore undor Grant,

What we are Doing. The New
York World, in alluding to what tho
Democrats have done for the country
rocently, says : "The bad taste and
blindness of the country cannot be
sufficiently deplored by our Republi
can frionds. During the lastsix months,
though the bold, bad Democrats have
boon overturning the Governmont, dis
banding tbe army, repudiating the Na
tional debl,inflating tbo currency .starv
ing tbe Administration, pulling in
peril the great results of the war,
hatching out tbe weevil and seventeen
yoar locusts, scuttling tbo Bonanza
mines, and butting tbo bull off tbe
bridgo, the incrcato in business has
actually amounted to 20 per cent, and
thoro has been a falling off in Insolvency
ofUOporccnt. Tbo Republican ruin
has gone to mcot the Republican re
boll ion and tho Republican exodus.
At this rate the Democrats will save
the country nnlesi something is done
to try to boad them ofl at once."
A "KaiiiAiusa." An exchange re
marks : "Gonoral Longstroet, cr-Con-tederalo,
is now living quietly at Gaines
ville, (ia., much liked by tbe towns
people, and gottlng a comfortable in
come of 12,000 from his postmaster
ship and sheep farm, and from bis Sum
mer hotol probably 12,000 moro. This
hotol is managed by his son and
nophow. The General's sole trouble
ia a paralyzed arm, caused by old
wounds from Federal muskets while
he stood No. 3 in the Confederate
army trying to capture Washington
from 1H61 to 18C5.
Treason. Tbe Philadelphia Timet
sayt: "Senator Chandler bas arrived
In Maine. Fortunately for Mr. Key it
was not until after that ex-Confodor-ate
Brigadior had left tbo Slate, and
the Postmaator Gonoral will probably
roach Saratoga in safety, unless Bill
Cbandlor should run across him somo
wbore In New Hampshire and Insist
upon making troason odious."
HE IS A NOTED LIAR.
Tho Washington 'oaf says: 'Of all
places in tho United Status, Now Eng
lurid is the last locality thai Mr. Sher
man should have selected fur the
declaration that tho Republican party
has nevor robbed auiy class of citizens
of tbo elective franchise' Mr. Sher
man cannot be Ignorant of the fact
that, in moro than ono of those Slutes,
tho Republican party has deliberately
disfranchised classes of American citi
sens, and tlwA in oijeof Ihoso States at
least, tho Republican party holds its
power to day by such disfranchisement,
If Mr. Sherman bad launched his
effort in Providence instead of Port
land, not loss than one-third of the
adult mules in that city, and in the
State of Rhodo Island, could havo
risen up to confound him with tho
truthful declaration Ihut thoy wero
doprived of the right of suffrage by
Radical proscription. In tho Stato of
Massachusetts, too, the intolerent, pro,
Bcriplive spirit of that party has rob
bed thousands of American citizens ofl
the right to vote at any election, local
or Stato."
What else could be expected from a
man who helped to steal tbo President,
than to utter and depend on lios.
The Gaq Chairman. Frank C
llooten, of Chester county, baa boon
selectod as Chairman of tho Repuhli
can State Committee. Ho has been
appropriately surnamcd "Gag" Hooton,
from tho fact that in tho Convention
ho offered a resolution, which was
adoptod, providing that all resolutions
be referred to tho committoo on plat
form without debate or voto, and that
unless reported by a majority of that
committeo no resolution should be con
aidercd or acted on by tbe Convcn
tion. llooten even had tho audacity
to call tho provious question, thus cut
ting off any discussion of his rosoln
tion. This was a gag, pure and sim
ple, effectually shutting the mouths of
tho minority. No moro emphatic no
tice could havo been given that tho
minority bad no rights that the ma
jority was bound to respoct. It hits
thus como to pass that tho party boost
ing a frco press and free speech has
becomo the most absoluto tyrant to
stifle and tread under toot the rights
of Ihoso who aro opposed to tho rulo
of a despotic ring.
High-toned, Indeed! A contem
porary says that thero is a dispute be
twocu tho frionds of citizen Charles
Fostor, tbo Radical nominco for Gov
ernor of Ohio, and the Hon. James G
Blaine, rospoctively, ns to which ol
thoso gentlemen baB the best military
record. As Mr. Fostor's substitute was
kept in tho hospital nearly all tbe time
by chronic, diarrhea, and got no pro
motion, whilo Mr. Blaine's substitute
got to bo Brevet Sergoant of a provost
guaid, the friends of Mr. Blaine confi
dently assort that his record is much
more scintillant and corruscating than
that of Mr. Fostor. As this is a mat
tor of great delicacy, Involving tho
honor of two distinguished men, we
suggest that Mr. Hayes would do well
to order a court of Inquiry. We can
not toll what glory Mr, Foster might
Lave achieved by proxy, if Me substi
tute bad not been smitten and pros
trated with that terrible malady. We
aro not sure that intentions thus cru
elly thwarted ought not to count as
deeds actually done.
ALoyal Growl. Tho Philadelphia
Ledger, of tho 1st inat., gots off this
yelp : When tho Republican Stato
Convention was in sossion at Harris
burg tbo other day tho rather extraor
dinary Chairman of that body recog
nized Mr. Quay, who was a Philadel
phia dolcgnto, as "tho gentleman from
Boavor," and some of tho nowspapers
aro inclined to have tbeir little jokos
about it. But why ? Is a Philadel
phia delegation in a Stato Convention
of any more account than a city dele
gation in tho State Legislature?
Nolthor ot them have any voice in any
matter oxcopt to voto as thoy aro told
and the man who tells them is rarely
a Philadelphian. Wherefore it was
more to the point to address Mr. Quay
as "the gentloman from Beaver" than
as the delegate from Philadelphia. '
"Injuns" About. The redskins aro
disturbing affairs In tbe Northwest, A
telegram from St. Paul, Minn., on Sat
urday, Bays : "Gonoral Terry, com
manding the military department of
Dakota, received last night a dispatch
from Gcnornl Miles dated camp on
Rock Crock, eighteen miles south of
the boundary, saying that Sitting
Gull's band of Sioux fled northward
to Wood mountain, leaving their prop,
orty scattered aiong the line of routo
for filly miles. The Sioux aro estima
ted to number 5,000, with 2,000 fight
ing mon. Gonoral Miles sayt ho be
lieves his force strong enough to deal
with all the Indians Silting Bull can
muster." Our Generals had bettor
keep a sharp lookout for that Hioux
Bull or we will have another Custer
slaughtor to rocord.
"Noni or Your Fun I" The Balti
more Gazette pokes its fun at the I'enn
sylvania Dutch in this rudo manner:
"It looks liko a shamo to keep a man
of Governor Uartranlt's genius cooped
up in tho Philadelphia postoflico. Ho
should be tent to air his attainments
at tbo Court of St. Petersburg, but Mr.
Childs should succeed to the English
Mission. This would be quito a con
cession to Pennsylvania ; but it must
be borno in mind that Pennsylvania
has been coldly treated by this Admin
istration. The Stato which has be
como the Koystono of the Republican
arph must bo closely looked a! lor.''
The Baltimore man bad better dry up,
or ho will Incenso somebody,
A New Departure. The Beocbors
aro always getting up something now
in morals and business. An exchange
says: Rov. Thomas K. Boecber, of
Elmira, Now York, a brothor of Henry
Ward Boecber, is advocating cromation
and offers to subscribe for Hock in a
company to conduct the business." It
would seem from this that this high
toned, "good and moral idea" family
it roady for any emergoncy.
liOTt or Titles. An exchange re
marks: Joshua L. Chamberlain, of
Maine, has possessed tbe following
title, and lie it a young man yot:
Rot.. Prot.. Esq., Hon., Governor.
Major-General, President. In addilion
to this string of titles he has received
from the stalwart press of Maine tho
title of ex-Rebel Sympathizer.
RE VE.WE B Y STA TES.
Washington. July 9. Since Senator
Conkling's speech in reference to where
tbo revenues comu from that support
tho Government, there bos bcon a great
deal of talk on the subject in cdlicial
circles, and tho regret often expressed
that there is no way to tell what pro.
portion of tho public burdens are borno
by tho people of each State. In tho
Postofllce Department it is possible to
tell to a cent whero tho rovenues of
that branch of tho Government came
from, for postage stamps are used
where they aro sold. Bui whisky and
tobacco aro not.
Many officir.ls think that tho fairest
and most correct way to estimate tho
amount paid by the pooplo of each
Stato lo tho Bupport of the general
Governmont is to tako tho sales of
stamps and postal cards anil receipts
from nowspnpor postage They arguo
that the postoflico business in each
Stute is a pretty true criterion of the
business and intellectual growth ofsucb
Stato, and that Governmont revonuo
from each State is really In proportion
to postal receipts.
If this is truo, tho 143,000,000 paid
into the Treasury for the support ot
tho genoral Govornmont comes from
tho peoplo of tho respective States in
tho following proportions :

Cadet Hazino. A low years ago
while Fred Grant and his fathor woro
Commnndors-in Chief, West Point was
noarly ruined in point of discipline.
Rocently tho malady bas broken out
again. An exchange remarks : Tbe dis
missal of six cadets from the Military
Academy at West Point on the charge
ot "hazing" may havo boon justifiod by
tho circumstances. The cruelties
which tho older cadets sometimes in
flict upon tho now-comcrs or "Plebes'
aro well deserving of tho severest pun
ishment. But thoro is another Bide of
tho question and it is quite possiblo for
the commander of West Point to carry
his championship of the "Plebes" a little
too fur. Tho now cadets, coming raw
from the country in somo rases and
from luxury and effeminacy in others,
need a little friction with their fellows
to rub tho bark off. A few harmless
practical jokes or "sells," not pushed
to tho point of cruelty, does tbo new
comer a vast deal of good. It rubs tho
rural down off him and makes him
alert and keonsightod and self-reliant.
It induces also a strong class tooling
and c.ri(f du corps and mutual roll
ance for mutual protection. Instead
of abolishing hazing completely it
would be botter to tako tho system un
dor protection, as tho French and Gor
man officers do tho duo!, lo loavo what
is good In tho custom and guard
against its abuses and cruelties.

We hope "Mr. Hayes and family, and
especially Mr. Webb Hayos," will not
consider us obstrusivo if wo inquiro
how many ot tho "valuable gifts" re
ferred to belonged to the United Statos
beforo they were so kindly donated to
tho Birc,hard museum. The fact that
the presents aro in tho form of "foreign
curiosities," "historical cannon," "war
material," etc., would Boom to carry
out the idea that they are largely tho
property of tho Government. In which"
probable case, it might be well for Mr.
Hayes to rise up and explain what
business ho or bis son has to thus pur
loin this pubiio property for personal
ends. It really would seem as
if the Je facto ought to be content
enough with having stolen tho Presi

National Cowards. Tho genuine

by tho appoarance of tho "Confedorato

tbey aro not so nearly unnerved about
their movements as thoy woro from 1801
to 1HC4. Thon tliolr knees knocked

Tho HuUunuro . Ua;dte . remarks :
Mr. Joseph II. lluincy, a colored citi
zeu of South Carolina, who bad the
honor lo hold a scut in tho Lower House
of Congress in the flown days when
ignorant negroes and eorrlit carpet
baggers plundered and oppressed the
I'uliiictto State, is in Now York city
with a budget ol woe. Having lost all
political power and position in tho
South and having been relegatoil lo the
social level where ho belongs, liainey
is disposed to lake a depoidnt wy
of things. He sees no future for the
colored people of tho South and strong.

Tribune that thu Democrats of his

system, that no colorod mon are allow,
ed to exercise tho elective lranchise
undisturbed and that ho has evidence
lo show that on the plantations tho
owners are now flogging colored chil
dren us they did in old slave times.
Mr. Rainey, being bilious and despond
ent, actually fears that tho oppressed
colored men of his State will bo forced
into doing something terrible one of
those days. The trouble with tho poli
ticluns of the Ritiney school is that
they inistako tbeir own miafortuues
for the general distress ot their race.
Mr. Rainey finds that tho colorod tools
whom he so profitably used aro no
longer a power in the direction ol af
fairs and ho finds that instead of being
ablo lo wear fine linen and furo sump
tuously us an office-holder ho is com

Fliers ABOUT THE CENSUS.
As tho timo for tho taking of tho
next census approaches much interest
is attached to tho matter, and as a
gonoral misunderstanding exists in re
gard to the matter, will save much un
necessary correspondence and trouble
when properly known. The Socrotary
of tho Interior, on or beforo tbe first
day of March, 1880, shall appoint one
or more Supervisors for census for
each Stato, but the whole number in
the States and Territories shall not
exclude 150. The Supervisors shall
appoint tho enumerators for the various
counties of tbe State. Any county
exceeding 4,000 population shall bo
divided into districts so that no dis
trict shall contain more than 4,000 in
habitants. Tho enumerators shall bo
gin tboir duties on tho first Monday
in Juno, 1880, thus requiring tho work
to be dono in less than thirty days.
The compensation will be two cents
lor each inhabitant, two conts for oach
death reported, ten conts for oach farm,
and ten cents for each establishment
of productive industry. Application
ft.r appointment as enumerators must
be addressed to tho Supervisors of the
Stato whore appointed.

Redeeming Themselves. The can
vass in California for thu eloction of Gov
ernor und Congressmen, which comos
off tho 2d of Sept., is being prosocutod
with vigor. A number of Radical
leaders, notably among them ex-United
States Senator Cole and Goorgo C
Gorham, who tor a numbor of years
sorved as Secretary of tbo United
Stales Senate after Forney wus turned
out, are on tho stump, advocating the
election of Dr. Glonn, tho Domooratic
candidate for Governor, At this dis
tance from tbo conflict, it looks to us
as though tho Doctor would beat tho
other throe candidates by a vory large
plurality. California looks well for
tho Democrats.
FntAKa or a Spendthrift.--We
notico that tbo representative of the
heir ol the great Henry Clay was in
Boston last week to negotiate tho sale
of tbe famous Clay vaso, bought by
tho generous contributions of the en
thusiastic Whigs in 1814. About every
thing elso has gone for tho benefit of
the young spendthrift, and now this
testimonial ot his grand fathor is put
in tho markot. The vaso is of solid
silver, two and a half feet high, and
elaborately fabricated. We would not
be surprised to learn that this unnatu

will bo hawking tho bones of bis
grand father for sale in some markot.

President Thomas Jefferson spoke of

term implies. At tbo sumo time Jef
ferson mentioned, us "among tbo essen
tial principles of our Governmont,"
"preservation of the general Govern
monl in its whole Constitutional vigor
as tho sheet anchor ot our peaco at

same "essential principles" tho father
of Democracy enumerated the support
of State (lovernmcntsinull their ri,;hts
as tho most competent administrations
for our domestic concerns, and the
surest bulwark against unti-ltopubli-can
tendencies." l'but is Democracy.
And thoso are tho principles for which
tho Democratic party of to-day is con
