It Is probable that the delegates elected

day (Saturday) will be Instructed to voto
for lion. V. JL llapslicr for Jude of tbe
Supreme Court ftt the Slater Convention,

Democratic papers throughout tho Stats,

Tills Democratic County Committee will
assemble In the Court Douse, at Mauch
Chunk, to-day (Saturday) at eleven o'clock
a. m., for the purpose of electing delegates
to roprescut the county of Carbon at the
the State Convention to ba held at Allen
town on Wednesday, the 31st day of Aug.
A. D., 1887. All Democrats serving the
party In the capacity of committeemen
should uot fall to bo present as It Is not
unlikely that Important business matters
will be transacted.
Broaiirhft Sew York Letter.
ANAJtcmsT Most Is evidently not much
of a sympathizer of the allllctions (?) of
Dr. McGlynn, judging from tiio following
paragraph which la ely appeared in the
Freihelt, the anarchistic organ:
"Tbe hero Is such a miserable religious
enthusiast that It naturally makes a sensible
man sick to listen to his sermons, which he
now uses as food for mass mecllncs. That
he has trouble with his bishop Is his own
business, and we never knew that It was
-nny of tho workingmen's business If a
priest fell from grace. They had better
themselves go about ll to depose all priests
and to transform churches Into buildings
that may do some ssood. The entire parade
was an illustration of the Ignorance of the
American masses."
Considering the masses that bad been
extracted to participate In the parado and
did not, we think it can rather be construed
into an exhibition of American intelligence.
Mr. William O'Uiukn's paper, Unllci
Ireland, describes the attltudo of his coun
try toward tbe English jubilee very graphi
cally as follows:
"Ireland Is tho only civilized country In
tbe world which did not share in the jubi
lee celebration. She stood sternly and sor
rowfully aloof. Ireland's place ought to
have been beside England at the throne.
Irish blood and brain helped to build the
empire. Poverty, misery and slavery are
her reward. Sbe shared England's labors,
but sbo may not share her triumphs, Eng
land's joy is for fifty years of liberty, pros
perity and progress. Tho Irish grief and
wrath are for fifty years of misery, famine
and oppression, England is cumbered by
the struggles of a sullen captive, when she
might purchase-by justice the aid and com
fort of a friend."
There Is much truth as well as pathos lu
the last sentence of this characterization.
It Is Indeed only by justice that England
can secure friendly aid and comfort freru
Ireland.
One hundred and eleven years ago the
Declaration of Independence was signed in
Independence Hall, 1'hlladclphla, and the
hearts of the American people, delivered
f romjthe oppression of fort-ten tyranny, were
filled with joy which found vent In happy
thanksgiving, the rinsing of bells and firln:
of cannon. Almost a century and a quar
ter have passed and tho principles for
which the veterans of tho Itevoluttonarr
war battled have grown better and stronger
in the hearts of men, the frail institutions
of 1776 have developed Into substantial and
lasting elements protected and revered by a
people who appreciate and understand the
essential benefits nnd the possibilities of a
country where "all men are created equal'
and where "the Inalienable rights of citi
zens are not Infringed upon" by a despotic
power. In commemoration then of the
nobility of the cause for which tho "Am
erlcan colonists" fought It is but right and
just that Monday, Jnly 4, 1887, one hun
drecl and eleven' years after the signing of
the Declaration of Independence, bo cele
brated In an appropriate and patriotic man.

The suggestion made some time since by
tbe aow lorfc Mar, that tho captured reb
el trophies be gathered together and depos
lied in some receptacle In the monument to
b erected over tho remains of Gen. U. S,
Grant, meets with considerable approval
on the part of man) "old soldiers" as well

The suggestion is timely as well as excel
bin,t and justly meets with public favor In
ftJBiuch as all slates north and south, cast
and west aro on an equal footing, en
jcylng the same rights and privileges; and
as a matter of policy the rebel flags should
bo taken from the capltol where men of all
classes meet on common ground lu the
various capacities of government officials,
and put forever from sight and memory.
Of course, there aro a few objectors ip the
bigoted partisans, many of whom, perhaps,
Special to the Camion Advocatk.
The trial of Jako Sharp, the hurrlcano
on tuc uoliee .Exchange, ino tumoie in
wheat, the departure of Bernhardt, and the
monster procession to Doctor McGlynn,
have made tho week seem exceedingly short
and when you cut half the day out of Sat
urday and devote the tlmo formorly consid
ered sacred to closing up accounts and Sat
urday marketing, to br.so ball, horscraclng
and other moral amusements, It leaves but
scant tlmo even for a lively reporter to
make up a summary of news of the week
for the press.
The trial of poor old Jako Sharp has
fairly begun after a protracted effort to se-
curo a jury, which has the enviable dis
tinction of containing at least one gonlle-
man. And this brings mo to the point of
how juries aro obtained in New York.
Iu this good city the Sheilff has nothing
to do with making up tho jury list; that is
done by a gentleman kuown as tho Com
mlssloner of Jurors, and a most excellent
billet bo has. The financial possibilities
of thts office have never yet been fathomed,
bul It is worth U lec as much as the Tresl.
deucy of tho U tilled Status, and It Is doubt
ful if there Is an office In the country of
equal value. Suppose In our million and a
half of population there are two hundred
and fifty thousand men subject to jury
duty and among them are all the substan
tial business houses and capitalists hi tbe
city. The Commissioner of Jurors makes
out the list of names irom which all juries
are drawn; he can put on the name of Jay
Gould or lid can leave It off; he can do the
same with Washington Connor, or Ilusscl
Sage, or E. S. Jaffray, or Judge Hilton, or
Mr. Astor, or Cyrus Field, or any ono of
tho millionaires with which this city doth
abound. Now it Is well kuown that most
of tha class of men that I haye named de
test jury duty and would pay almost any
price rather than go In a jury box; by some
mysterious process they aro never called
upon to do so, and the result Is that our
jury boxes are too often filled by a set of
professional heelers who bang about the
Courts and who get their names put In the
wheel to the displacement of better men.
But after exhausting a talc of two thousand
jurors, at last they have found twelve good
men and true, topping off No. 12 with a
gentleman. To show how carefully, how
ever, the worthy Commissioner of Jurors
nau rcrrormea ins uuiy: one juror was
called up and he gave his ago as seventeen
years, he was bounced at once; two of the
summoned jurors were found to have been
doad for three years, so the Court excused
them from attending; three had never been
naturalized, and one of them had enly been
in the couutry a little over a year and could
not speak a word .of English; four were
deaf as posts and could not distinguish the
difference between a Chinese flro cracker
and a dynamite explosion. Any number
had read tho newspapers and had formed a
fixed opinion which Gabriel himself could
not turn. Tho hall, the lame and the
blind wcro on the Hst,and It is said, thougl
won't vouch for the truth of it, that a
promiuent drygoods man uptown wanted
he judge to excuse him because be was
lefthauded. But the bitter tussle for poor
old Jake came on Saturday. The Sheriff
had been allowing Mr. Sharp to remain at
his homo In the custody of three Denutv
fahcrifls, hut ho remembered how llany
Genett got away aud how old Dill Tweed
had skedaddled, and he told the Court that
for two days he had not slept R wink so be
was going to curtail Mr. Sharp's privileges
and lock him up. It was in vain that
counsel fumed and begged and prayed and
swore, the Sheriff was firm. as a rock, nnd
on Saturday afternoon the first link in tbe
chaiti was rlvctted, and poor old Jake was
landed behind the iron bars. The room
provided for his accommodation was the
samo hi which Bill Tweed died. As he lay
down to sleep that night what visions rose
before him as tho futuro with all Us tre
mendous possibilities startled his dreams I

The cyclone that swept over the Ch cago
wncat-pit struck us by lightning a few mo
ments after the row began there, and for a
few hours the messenger hoys wcro busy as
the In a galo of wind. Before the
general alarm got out, It was evident that
something was the matter; the telegraph
offices were choked with messages from the
west, and the answers were piled high lu
every oiuce licro. "Save me, Cash us, or
sink," was the cry from Chicago, and Wall
street responded nobly. But all day long
we were tempest-tossed, and It required
some noiye and a good deal of geldt to
keep our household In order. To tell tho
truth, the coffee market a few days before
gave us a severe turn from which we had
not quite recovered. It is true that the
amount involved was a mere trifle; only
eight or ten millions. It was not so much
tho money, but It unsettled tho values of
millions more; in short It riled our coffee
ami wiui ii our tempers; ana there was
much swearing and general bad language
thereat,
In regard to these wheat and coffee deals
no one feels sorry that the principals who
engineered this villainous business came to
grief. In legartl to wheat there Is no earth
ly reason why the price should be raised at
tbe present time. The markets of the
world are glutted with It. California car
ried oyer millions of bushels of last year':
crop, and has this year promise of equal
abundance. The granaries of the west aro
full lo suffocation, and that the vlllaluous
plot has failed let us all rejoice.
Coffee, which brought millionaire Aniold
and dozens of others to grief, was held in
abundance in Biazll, the West Indles,Java
Costa Itlca and other places where coffee
Is raised; a syndicate was formed which
was to enrich a few men at the cost of tbe
many, and an embargo was laid on all the
coffee crop of the world; it doubled, tripled
and quadrupled in price and yet the cor
morants were not satisfied; but at last, be-
trayed by some of their own clique anxious
to realize the profits of the steal, they came
to ruin. 1 his Is nut the first time that
Mr. Arnold has gone down in the same vll
lainous kind of speculatlou. He failed
his power for mischief la theuture will be
mora circumscribed than It has been In tho
past.
The dlvlno Sara Bernhardt sailed away
en Saturday with a good $300,000 In her
pouch, admirably tllustrallngtlmt excelled
Rdaije "Virtue Is Its own reward." We
derive some consolation from the fact Ihat
wo only contributed about $100,000 of It,
tho rest being drawn from Mexico and
South America, for this flnly refers to Sara's
shatn of the profits, Maurice Gran aud Mr.
Abbey bagging an equal amount, a million
of dollars representing the sum, which this
eccentric ncttess has drawn in two hundred
and fifty nights. Lots of flno ladles and
gentlemen went to see this virtuous artiste
off, and bid her "Bon voyage;" her state
room was a bower of roses, and everything
was lovely, proving as I said before, that
"virtue Is Its own reward." Sbo Is prom
ised to us again four years henco; In the
meantime she will furnish amusement for
the Kmncror of Bussla, tho Khedlyo of
Egypt, and possibly for tho Persian Shah,
who speaks Indifferent French. Should
the fates stuk her on tho way, or malarial
fever carry liar off during her Egyptian
tour, or the Iiusstan Czar send her to Si
beria, or the Shah of I'crsla seize her for
his harem; If our eyes are not to be blest
with her again, In view of tho manner in
which sbo has depleted our treasury I am
perfectly satisfied to say, "Good-bye,
Sara."
Saturday afternoon, New Yoik looked
like a Sabbath. The weary clerks and ar-
tlzans completely worn out with excessive
labors of the week were hastening out of
town to the racecourse, or baseball ground,
for a little quiet relaxation and rest. But
while thousands were rushing for the trains
and boats, the sheets wore filled with men
decorated with scarfs and badges, while
others charged about on horses, dashing
hither and tbllhcr evidently bent on bus!
iicss. As evening approached delegations
poured In from every quarter, bearing lan
terns and banners, aud as the shadow of
the evening fell companies, batnllious,
brigades and divisions began to form, till
tho city about Union Square was teeming
with marshalled thousands. What for?
you ask. To do honor to Doctor Edward
McGlynu, the prophet of the New Crusade.
There are wheels within wheels, and aside
from everything else, It was a sort ot quasi
rcbuko to tho procession of tho Saturday
night two weeks ago, when William O'
Bilen.ruluscd to review the parade. Iu
point of numbers and general good order
It was exceedingly creditable. It-Is plainly
evident that tbe Bevcrend Doctor has ft
most enthusiastic following. Many thous
ands of dollars were, expended In the dem
onstration on Saturday night, the bill for
carriages alnne being nearly three thousand
dollars. Who paid for it? Somebody did
was u tuo "Aiiu-i'overiy society," or
who? Aud now let us Inquire what was the
procession for? It was tho public endorse
ment of Dr. McGlynu's refusal to no to
Home. Dr. McGlynn Is a Catholic priest
and ho has never up to the present momcut
n public or private expressed a desire to
bo anything else. To him. tho Catholic
church is the Bock of Aces: ho believes
that the Catholic chuich is right, and Pro
testantism Is heresy, and when ho took his
priestly vows he piomtsed obedience to th
higher powers, and ho accepted as he was
bound to do, the doctrine of Papal lufalll
blllly. It Is Immaterial whether Doctor
McGlynn personally assented to It or not
If he remained In the church he was hound
to obey the majority. He bad the privilege
that every man has of withdrawing, bul
that he refused to exercise. Now why was
he summoned to Borne? Because It Is at
Home that all such offenses as his arc tried
If a man Is to bo tried for an offense. In this
country wc summon hltn to the county seal
and In the case of tho United States, men
have been taken hundreds of miles away
from their homes to be tried for offenses
against tho government; and as Dr. Mc
Glynn was summoned by the Propagand
aud the Propaganda sits In Borne, it Is
more reasonable to suppose that ho should
be summoned tq the presence of the court,
than that the court should come to him
Borne only demands of her servant what
the general of an armv demands of a sol
dler, what any well regulated business
houso asks of Its subordinates, what th
United Slates demands of every liylng soul
within her borders: Obedience to cstab
llshed law. Dr. McGlynn may found
new dynasty, start a new religious belief,
where every man shall be, like himself, his
own sole judge of right and wronc. He
may make tho Cross of the New Crusade
tho orlflamrae of uncounted millions: the
wild acclamations of multitudes of men
may bear him along on tho tldo of popular
success; out it unrepentant lie will never
recclvo the church's blessing till tho crack
of doom. BBOADBBIM,
