Ills ovcr Lmcrlng Intellectual force, Ills deep emo tional nature, his passionate enthusiasm for liberty, and his mastery of the thoughts and hearts of men have mailo for lilin a place In American history which will find their full appreciation now that he Is no more. Tho last half score years of his life added nsthlng to tho many chapters of brilliant achievements, but rather detracted therefrom, tinging with bitterness the de cay of a mighty career. Hut whllo his en emies heaped bitter Inuendoes upon his Head, friends to whom he. had become cn dcaied by tho sympathetic cord of pure, honest friendship clum; to him with ardent devotion when the darkness of a gieat sor row settled over him. Henry Ward Ilecch cr was the expounder of no false dogma, when In tho pulpit he spoke not alone, to the members of his congregation, but to tho whole world and in his passing away the church, and all America, lcwcs a philan thropic friend and brother of w hich history tan supply no equal. A merciful God niailehiui not the victim of Ions physical sufferings; stricken with apoplexy on Thursday of last week, he closed his eyes In death early on the following Tuesday morning. lie was bulled on Thursday morning, a large cortege of soironlng rela tives and friends following thu lemalnsto their last resting placr. TnK present American contributions of money have tho countenance of American opinion, says Gladstone, and tl'ie aid of Americans of high station and character, free even from the bias of lilsh extraction. 2an we object justly to their action? Why should they be ashamed of it, or why should we resent it? If ever one country may sub scribe for the purposes, the peaceful pur poses, of another, it is when a rich countiy and a kindred country subscribes for a poor country, and for the poorest though far the largest portion of lis people. Ills when Ameilca lias enjoyed means of judgment In some respects even superior to ours, for she has known and seen better than we do the fruit of our treatment of the Irish na tlon on this side of tho Atlantic, In the views and teellugs of the Irish nation on the other side of tho Atlantic. Otro borough authorities should see that proper sanitary measures are observed bj our citizens. The gaibage accumulated dining the past winter should be disposed of, out-houses thoroughly fumigated, gut ters cleaned and everything possible done to prevent the breaking out In our midst of any serious epidemic. I. Is tho duty of every citizen to promptly report to the Chief llurgess any undue negligence on tho part of our people regoiding necessary san itary regulations. Tnr. truth Is to-day what It cluays hi s been what it always will be those who feel are the only ones who think. A cry comes irom tno oppressed, Irani the hun BO from the downtrodden, from the un fortunate, from the men who despair and Irom women who weep. Tliero are times when mendicants become revolutionists when a ras becomes a banner, under which the noblest and bravest battle for tho right.

Special to tho Camion Advocate The Uey-noto of the Irrepressible conflict has been sounded by Mayor Hewitt of New York: That either the Democratic party or the Knights of Labor must go down. Mayol Hen lit need not liavostoilpedat the Democratic party It Is a question more awful than tho destruction of any party, Democratic or ltepuMlcan. The question presented to tho people of these United States Is. whether liberty shall survive ns tho heritage of our children or whether It shall pcrifh from tho face of the earth. We are just now beginning to leallzo the terri ble ciisls f i em which we have escaped and tho ruin In which this Master-workman Qiiinii was willing to plunge this city to carry his point of gettlim a few cents n day for eighty or a bundled coal stilkers. If this Is a Government of Quliins and fellows of like Ilk. Instead of a Government "of the people, for tho people, and by the peo ple," wo had better llnd It out nt once. Xo one objects to trades organizing for mutual protection and assistance, but wi draw the line, when, not satisfied with pro tecllng their own rights, they trample on tho rights of everybody else. Unless you go along the wharves and Into tho streets adjacent to the rivers, where the tollers dwell, you cannot realize the depth of misery In which this cruel and baibarous despotism has plunged these Ignorant strikers. A man can well understand how one man or a thousand men could go out on a strike If ho or they had a arleyance; but here were fifty thousand men and not ono in a nuuiirei' nail aiiYlliing to com plain of; they were gcltlnu all the wages they asked and working the hours that they themselves had established. They were contented and happy, but Qulnn ordered them out and they went like a iluck of sheep. In a few days their families were without food or fire, the children were crj Ing for bread, tho wives were famishing with hunger and cold, but, the strikers closed their ears to their cries and heard nothing but the command of Qulnn. Such an exhibition of abject slavery and degrad anon among wlille men was never ircn on this continent before. Talk of men wor shipping golden 'calves and cods of wood and stone. It was nothing to the abasement of these stilkers. They did not pretend to make, thc sllghlcst effort at reason; there was no exercise of judgment or thought of consequence; Qulnn said strike, and tli was enoucli. In New 1 ork wo havo seen what a liltle pluck and determination can do. The freight handlers and 'longshoremen num tiered about five thousand llye bundled men, of these neatly four thousand have lost their places; some are starving, others begging charity, thousands lmntlnc around for work, only to be refused when thev aro known. They llnd non-union men In their maces; they will not be given another op portunity to paralyze the commerce of New Yotk, and they will learn from bitter ex pcrienco that wo have paid too costly a price for this Republican Government of ours to allow a despotism, no matter what its name or by w ho engineered, to bo raised in our midst to trample on the rights of our citizens. We, too, announce to the Knights of Labor and all kindred Associa tions, that an Injury to one Is an injury to an, ami as long as law lemalns supreme In tills land Its humblest citizen, union or non union, shall bo freetocairy his labor wlicro ho will, and regardless of associa tions sell it to the highest bidder, and no man shall say him nay. Wo fought for the emancipation and freedom of tho laboring man, and wan Hod's help we will maintain huh in nis rigut as long as ono stone re mains nbove another In this Itenubilc. As I said, American pluck has triumphed; all the steamship companies aio coin" ahead as of yore; we have now got all the coal we want; the bug-a-boo of tho terrible boycott has been knocked on the head and Its brains dashed out, If It ever had any, mm vuinnanu ins Assembly -10 are roundly cursed by the miserable dupes who have been led to ruin by him. Hut the pronunciamcnto of Mayor Hew itt to the Kniehts of Labor Is not his only surprise to the lawless elements. For years past It has been the habit for certain large German saloons, or gardens as they were caned, to liavc Sunday evening sacred con certs, garnished with Ithlne wine, laeer. bock beer, Frankfurt sausages, Schweitzer Kaso and bologne. Tho sacred perform ances were amusing If not always cdlfvlmr. and consisted of a little of everything from a concert on the tumblcrollcon to a round with two ounce gloves according to the Marquis of Quecnsberry's rules. Among mo most Helmut offenders who considered themselves outside the pale of the law wero Koster & Hail on 23d Street. They had had a great fortune; they had a strone: political pull; they made and unmade Al dermen, and got whom they pleased ap pointed on the police. The Mayor, not ap proving ine cnaracteror this plaee.Induced the Excise Hoard to refuse them a license. This made no difference to Koster & Ball, and they proposed to goon without It. Mayor Hewitt brought them up with a round turn, ami when they found them selves In the crasp of the law they paid their fines, blessing their lucky stars that they were not sent to prison; they shut up their shop and now the property is aiher tlsed for sale. Tom Gould's notorious dlvo Is dark and Tom himself a fugitive from justice. It Is rumored that Hurry Hill is about to join the Salvation Harmy, though It is said that ho will not make an open profession of faith till after Jack Dcmpsey's fight with tho Unknown, and John L. Sullivan has settled conclusions with Jem Smith and polished off Mitchell. The German opera closed Its season with Wagner's DIo Melsterslnger, the embus!- asm at the close being up to fever heat as It was also the lastulghtof the great leader Anton Seldl, who goes back to the Iloyal Opera House at Ilerlin. Xo king oi: his throne ever received a more royal ovation; men and women stood up on tho seats and waved their hats and handkerchiefs and shouted themselves hoarse foi the great leader. Wagner fur tho moment was lost sight of In Seldl; and rlitbt here just mark my words, and I am neither a prophet nor I thu ton of a prophet, but many years will j not roll by till Herr Seldl aaln wields the 1 baton In New York.

Ily a number of men who can see as deep In a millstone as their neighbors, the Urooklyn dinner was supposed to bear- ranged as a presidential boom for Governor Hill, and as Goyeinor Hill had pardoned tho rascally boycollcrs Who robbed Thelss of .1000, tho reference In Mayor Hewitt's letter to persons In high olllco coquetting with the lawless classes wai supposed to bn a di heat Governor Hill; at any rate, the President, Mr. Lee, pocketed the letter and It did not come to light nt the dinner. It Is said that the reason It was not read, that Governor Hill declared if It was to bo read that lie would not attend the dinner. Xow, Governor Hill asserts that he ncyer saw the letter, that lie never heard of tho letter; that, In fact, he had not the slight est Idea that such a letter had been written 111! he saw the account In the public prints. It may be that the Governor Is right, and I hope for the honor of the Statu that he Is but tliero are three gentlemen in Urooklyn who profess to lie willing to swear that the letter was shown tohlmand was suppressed at bis expressed desire. As I said before.I hope the Governor Is right, but It Is pretty evident that both cannot have told the truth. Some one has told a big Well, no matter what but It looks ycry much like It, Our virtuous neighbor, Brooklyn.ls going to have a legislative keelhauling, and If re ports be true she needs It'. Reports of mal feasance and misfeasance and general cus' sedness havL' been rife for soma' years, but the last Grand Jury voiced the complaints of the entire city. A few years ngo several companies started In to bless the city with urn new ciecmc iignc. Aldermen were bought, public offices were fixed, expensive plants were established, and just as the lucky Incorporations appeared about to reap a goincn Harvest a band of phates swpoped uown uuon them, hampered them In cverv direction, and finally gathered In all their plunder and drove them from the field, When the ring got possession of the prop- criy.electrlc lighting becamo an established fact In Brooklyn and the pirate crew have been reyelllng In clover ever since They exceeded tho appropriation for lighting the city t-SO.CCO, but that did not trouble them a bit, as they borrowed tho deficiency from another fund and kept tho electric finances sound. Tho Chief Engineer, tho fiist Deputy Sheriff and a number of high offi cials, as well as the District Attorney, are under a cloud. What the upshot may be time alone, can determine, but when rogues fall out honest folks come bj their own. e are now deeply exercised on tho question of high license, and as It Is pretty evident that the prohibitionists aio only aiding the ruin-sellers, the vital question with uj Is how to get rid of the low hells and divc3 which meet us at every corner. Mr. Hcccher, Doctor Crosby and many abl men see some help for us In the high li cense law. Wo can get that if wc try hard enough; we can't get prohibition In Xew York. St. Patrick's Day is close at hand and it looks as If thero might bo wigs on the green before it Is over. The SI.

Xow, if the routes of these three armies should happen to cross, you might hear of something that would sound very inueii use me explosion of tlie volcano at Manna Loa, or the recent earthquake In the south of Fiance.

Maiich 0, 16S7. The present Legislature promises to make for Itself a name which will live in all pos terity. It proposes to begin tho erection of a new State Capitol ;tbe scheme, proposed Is In embryo as yct.but It will be developed by and by, unless something unforscen and unsuspected should present Itself. A iolnt resolution Is now being considered by the committee on Buildings and Grounds, which provides or the appointment of a commission, advertising for plans and the payment of a premium for the best plan furnished, and an appropriation of j.300, 000 with which to begin operations. The erection of a new State Capitol Is dally growing In favor with all legislators who express themselves as being dlsgusled with the patcbed-up building now in use, and claim that not only the growing necessities of the legislative department, but State pride, demands the erection of a new build ing. When the Idea of the erection of a new building was first suggested fears were entertained that the old cry of removal would bo brought up and spoil tho success of the scheme. This will not be the eapp. however, and If a new Capitol is erected at all It will bo built on the 1:111, just South of the present structure; to do this It will be necessary to tear down the building used by the Secretary of Internal Affairs. Bv doing this tho old Capitol can stand until the new building Is made ready for occu pancy. It may Interest the numerous read ers of the AnvocAii: to know that the present buildings were erected between 1810 and 1822, tho coincr-stono bavin? been laid on May 31. IR10. i,v Flndlay. The at of State government had been moved from Lancaster to Ilanlst burg In 1812. and the first spsslnn nf n. Legislature that was held In Harrisburs met in the old Court Hoiisobuildlng.whieh was occupied as a legislative hall ten vears. as the Assembly did not tako possession of tnc new Lapllol until January 2. 1822. It Is just now very interesting to know how much these buildings cost slxty-fivo years ago. The first appropriation was that of 1810, amounting to $50,000; In 1810 $70, 00 more was appropriated and spent, and In 1S28 tho columns and front portlctf were erected at a cost of $15,000 a total of $133,. gOO. In 1801 the State spent fSO.000 in repairs and upon the library, and In 1S71 the Capitol was enlarged at a cost of over 4-75.000, which not counting tho repairs made from lime to time upon tho two chambers and the committee rooms, is a grand total cost to the present time of $'-'$0,000. The co3t ottheStato buildings and grounds was as follows: Executive offices. 4M.000: cost though It cannot begot out, that amount won d not bn lnere.id tr ti, ...... f..i.i .(wi v ni'uui iiii-inurmi uic new c-apuoi were to be erected.

With thl difficulty beforo them wo would adylso tho members to "let 'er go slow." By limiting the time of speech making to ten minutes Is one fact which signifies the desire of the Assemblymen to get through with the numerous bills presented in order to be ready to adjourn at the expiration of tho ono hundred days If possible. A Hm tatlon of speech making to five minutes duration would no doubt havo been n big Improvement as It would prevent the diving too deep into the subject of debate nhd not prolong argument. A resolution to the ef fect that no moio bills be presented with out the full consent of the House was pre sented and agreed upon almost unanimous ly. Upon the adjournment of the Legisla ture it will be found that much wctrk has been left undone; however, at this early day It Is safe to say that there will be no calling of an extra session Governor Beaver not desiring to fall into the error pursued by ex-Governor Patlison. The adjournment of the House is a good way off. as yet, mid the above conjecltiro may be looked upon s just a little preylous, but It will hold out.novertheless. The State Superintendent of schools was made happy by tho successful passage of a mi uMuiiuuii; uiesciiooi lei into six months. This Is a measure that has Fnni niHin ml vocated by some of the most prominent educators In the State, though strange to say. It was hotly fought on the floor of the House by three ei-scliool teachers, who raised me old parsimonious cry of Increased taxation. The bill was ably and eloquent ly defended bv voiin" .racket-, nf Tlm who showed, among othsr things, that The Keystone State stood as low as fourteen nn the list of tho. Slates of the Union In edu cational matters. Rutan, in the Senate, has called oil' the compensation amendment for the present. This Is nn intimation and dp.sln, nf tl, liquor men who very, wisely consider that the forcing of a double amendment proposi tion ucioreiuo people win savor of duplicity and react against their interests. The scales naye at last fallen from the eyes of the liquor men of anv rcsnectabllitv nml they begin to realize that unless a moder ate anu careitilly digested high license measure Is passed thlssesslon.Fcnnsjlvanla may be swept Into the prohibitory column and their Interests co throimh convulsions Incident to the period of abortive prohlbl- iuij cuuii, aiu.ii as Jiassaciiusctts, Ohio, Iowa and other States passed through. The Attorney General unofficially has given his opinion that the graded features of the Brooks bill are undoubtedly constitutional, an opinion confirmed In a letter by Jtid"e Agncw. This bill Is Xo. 112 on the House calendar and will not bo reached for a few weeks yet, as It was recommitted for amendments. The appropriation committee went West to Inspect the public institutions In that quarter and returned In time for Monday night's'sesslon. A great, deal of work Is yet before tills body, end Mr. Dearden.wlth all his commendable industry, which keeps him working night and day, has little time for general labor on the floor. Dr. Huldekoper's bill for $100,000 to maintain and establish a veterinary college and hos pital at the University of Pennsylvania lias been Introduced. Though a large ap proprlptlon the design of the institution meets with approval, especially In the agri cultural sections of the State, whore so much loss has In the past been entailed on valuable stock through Indifferent and non professional veterinary practice. The uni versity will give a valuable tract of ground If the State will build the college and hos pital, and will besides condition Itself in the trust to educate in perpetuity not less than fifteen State scholars In the art and science of veterinary medicine and sur ficry.
