"He has Barred In the 3talo Legislature, and was a candidate before the 'Democratic State ConTsntion for Supreme Judge, but was defeated by Judge VcCollum." The Philadelphia- Inquirer Ears: "Hon. Yflllluu M. Rapsher, who has bean con ducting tlio prosecution against the engi neers and fireman In the Mud Run dis aster cases Is In the city. This Is one of the most remarkable cases In tie criminal Jurisprudence of the Commoawtalth. Mr. Rapsher, who has served In the Leslilature, Is oie of the leading lawyers In hh portion of the'State. lie was a prominent candi date for the Democratic nomlnatioa for Judge of the Supreme Court In 1837, and could haye had the ccmpllraent for the asking last year, when it was a TTinner."

Browne of Indiana, said that "offen elre partisanship," as the term was Inter preted by the last administration, would not alone be sufficient grounds for remov ing postmasters of the Presidential class. Be said that postmasters should retain their placss till their commissions expire, unless there were objections- on account of conduct affecting their business qualifica tions. 'To be a Democrat, merely express ing opinions as a citizen generally does, without neglect of official duty, constitute an offence and this offcnslreness would not be retroactlye. Hut if postmasters go about on the street or elsewhere and utter ultrapolltlcal sentiments and become ob noxious they will be turned out. The 40, 000 or 60,000 fourth class postmasters are not Included in this rule and will be change od as fast as possiblt after the present rush of business is over. PoMEnor's Advance Tnoicnr is r.E sponsible for the following unique com-lti- slons in regard to the dissemination of tu fund de surplus: "The latest novelty and scheme to rattle the surplus is to sound uTlv millions of dollars for providing machines to squirt petrolonra into New York Bay and then set it on fire in case a foreign enemy should attack us with ships. Let us have a cordon of such squirls surrounding the entire United States, then, to be rid of the surplus, set the ocean on fire each 4th of Jnly night, have a picnic, and when tho high rolllni blase covers the scene and rolls in upon coast, valley and plain, causo peo ple on the outside to think that Uncle Sam is a of a fellow. Of course, the ships wonld sail Into the burning oil when the wind was against them." The State LxqisIiAtube will ad- journ on the 25th Instant without having dene anything In particular further than going through the serio-comic farce of passing the prohibition amendment a party promise, fulfilled by private party caucus and tho same measure to be defeat' ed at the polls by premeditated and delib erate negligence on the part of certain offic ials who failed to have the amendment published promptly or properly In papers in some of the counties. The persons to blame for this negligence should be dls covered and punished accordingly. BROADBRIM'S N. I LETTER. All the week we have been blessed and catered by the Sorosls, and whaVa bright set of women they were, and handsomo too, if handsome is as handsome does. There were literary fellows in abundance- poets, printers, sculpters, musicians, singers; many represented large business Interests, while other lucky -members of the guild had all the lo3te change they needed for their personal comfort and were not called upon to represent any particular profession; but the fact of their having a permanent bank account entitled them to so special consideration. The newspaper fellows soon made themselves felt, and a brighter, keener, smarter lot of people would be hard to find. The came irom au parts ei tne country, Having one commonobject, and I feel warranted In say ing that no natlnal convention has ever been assembled in this conntry, or In any other country, that moved with so little friction and that completed its labors as barmoul ously. The man or woman who pictures the Sorosls. as a body of hard featured spinsters, kiln dried old maids, or augular widows with short cropped beads, should have seen the women who assembled here this week. They were all business, as a sailor wonld say, -from main truck to keel- son. All the speeches were short, sharp and crisp, and as the time grew valnable towards the last of the session, the mem' btrs were ruled down to two minutes and a half, and when the time- had expired down came the (ravel on the tick ef the watch and the talking sister subsided at once like a lump of sugar In a teacup. There were plenty of young and pretty women there, some Miss and some Mrs. and there was also an array of sllvt. he "Is just as lovely s lovely could b Uo sweetly thos matrons'looked In their beam' Jul tllyer coronets representing eyery sli. de from the dark, steel gray to the spotless purity of the mountain snow. Looking at their decent, orderly meeting and listening to their speeches, I could not help asking myself, why deny women like these the -right . of suffrage and glye it to hordes of ignorant foreigners, who never did and never will understand oursystem of govern ment thousands of whom can neither read nor write? Opportunely at this time a bill has just been Introduced In the Legislature which giyes them the right to vote at municipal elections. I hope that this Is only an entering wedge, aud that ere many years have passed they may be full voters In every State In the Union. During the week the entire body has been the recipient of the most flattering atten tions. Those from the outside have made it a point to see whatever there was to see. They went to the theatres and the churches; they saw everything from Little Puck to Doctor John Hall, aud many found the Little Church Round, the Corner. At two o'clock In the morning a score or more of them dived down in the cellars under the "World" office to take a look at the wonder ful presses in motion. Some of the news paper fellows thought that they would like to take in the opium joints on Pell and Uott streets and get a sly peep at Billy Mc Glory's, while their more staid sisters from away baek contented themselves with ex ploring the wonders of the Metropolitan Art Jtucum and admiring the wax figures of the Eden Musee. Well, they had a nice time; Xew Terk Is glad they cane and eorry when they went aWa. Call again, ladles; call airaln. Glad to see you any time; the latch-strlng hangs on the-oatsld and NeT York will bid you welcome. Speaking of Billy McGlory's, there Isn't any Billy McGlorjr's any more. It really now begins to look as If a policeman could tell a dlvo or a gambling house as well ns an ordinary citizen. Billy McGlory's Armory Ilall on Hester street has existed here, an Inf amons reproach In spite of the police, for many years. It was one of the most fa nous er Infamous dives in the city. Thou sands of young girls havo been lured to ruin and death there. It was raided tlmo and again by the police, but It soenied to make no difference for Billy had a pull. One night he gave a scarlet ball to which the principal harlots, gamblers and thieves In the city were Invited, and at two o'clock In tho morning, with forty carriages and a drunken crew, ho proceeded to paint the town a yery bright vornilllion. In the after noon he called at the Brnnswick and en gaged the largest rcom with supper for two hundred. Sow, we have lo's of swell hotels In Hew York, but we havo nothing sweller or more exclusive than the Brunswick. It stands on Fifth avenue near Madison Square, not a stone's throw horn Delmonl co's, of which it Is In a measure a rival. When Billy, with his two hundred dryads aud naiads, descended like a cyclone on the peaceful and respectable hostelry at two o'clock in the morning, no wonder the pro prietor thought the day of judgment had come and that he was In the pen with the goats. From that hour Billy was a marked man. lie was worth a hundred thousand dollars, but they railroaded him to Black- well's Island in a month. He came out of prison after serving his term and thought he would try the religions racket, but some how religion did not agree with him, he Wasn't used to it and ltmade him sick, lie could get no rum license for Armory Hall, and the bulk of his customers knew nothing of lemonade or ginger pop, the only drinks obtainable. While the dances wero going on two policemen stood guard at the door, but the lemonade was so strong that It fre quently affected their legs, and drunken men and women were as frequent as before. Billy's last grand entertatment was a cake walk, and the colored aristocracy of Thomp son and Sullivan streets wore Invited to walk for de cake and a gold badge worth fifty dollars. On that night Armory Ilall was a sight and Billy was in his glory; the reporters got after him and that was the eid, the place was shortly after raided and osed, and this week It passed under the auctioneer's hammer, the entire properly bringing eighty-two thousand dollars. And so passes away one more of New York's infamous dlyes. The waters of great Nep tune's ocean could neyer wash its sins away. For years it has been a centre of ruin, sin and crime. There has been a desperate effort on the part of the criminal classes to duplicate the low concert halls of London and Paris, and at times they seemed almost on the very verge of success, but with all our faults (and heaven knows they are many), away flown deep in the subsoil is a love of law and order and decency among the masses on which we can rely in the bourof danger to save us from the flood of crime and sin which would otherwise over whelm us. No; the world Is a great deal better than it seems, and even the devil is not half as black as he Is painted. A strike has just come to an end after many weeks of severe privation, which has excited here a yery keen interest among those who desire the welfare of wemen One of our largest feather manufacturers Is a man by the name of Cohnfield. He em ploys several hundred girls, and these girls wlshiniT an advance of wages and other things besides, struck, and in a solid body marched out of the factory. IRieu they did this all the other feather mauufacturers closed their doors upon their workmen and Women, and after weeks of struggle, priva tion and loss they all go back without hav ing gained a single point, and it will take them all many months before they can square the losses which this ill-advised strike has cost them. Six years in the penitentiary for Robert Sigel. Such is the sentence on General Frans Slgel's son for forgery and larceny. This cruel blow falls with crushing weight upon his father, to whom the sympathy of the entire community goes out. The Gen eral never has been a rich man, but It has been bis consolation that at his death, if he could leave them the priceless herit age of an honest name. II Is son's disgrace has nearly killed him. His father trusted him implicitly and blindly; Ills son deceived and betrayed him. If the deed had been done by a trusted employe, he would have cheorfully paid the loss If It wrecked his fortune, but that he should have been dls' graced by bis own son, was more than he could bear; It has riven tho old warrior's heart. He cannot be made to believe that he still has the unshaken love and' respect ef bis fellowmen, who In nowise hold him responsible for the stortcomlngs of bis faithless son. In his sermon last Sabbath Brother Talmage's discourse was rather a sort of general Bible talk, wherein he sought to reconcile with fact a number of Bible statements which are called In question by unbelievers like Bob Ingersoll. In regard to the flood Brother Talmage advanced the Idea that the flood was by no means universal, that It was a sort of local affair over and above the region where Noah lived, and that the animals living In that locality were those that wero saved In the ark, and that the ark Itself was a model f sblp-bullding of which the modern eamshln Is a very Imperfect pattern. In speaking of Jonah he does uot believe that the whale really was a whale, but monstrous sea Berpent who could have swallowed Jonah as easy as a school girl does a stick of taffy. The sea serpent hay ing got Jonah down, Brother Talmage admits that it made bim feel very uncom fortable, and that owing to his close quarters Jonah did not feel by any means at home; under the circumstances then, nothing could be more natural than that they should desire to part company, Jonah wanted to get out and the serpent wanted to get him out, and both being of the sai mind it Is not at all astonishing that he took tho first opportunity of sending bim ashore. This is one of the clearest and most lucid explanations of that remarkable miracle yet given to the Christian world, and there Is no doubt but a good sized sea serpent such as has been seen off Coney Island and other places would haye made very short work of Jonah however, to see that In several places the congregation laughed as though it was very funny, aud that the pastor did not reprove them for their leylty. But Brother Talmage draws, there Is na mistake, about that. If you want to get a seat tn the Tabernacle you must go early. Ho Is stronger to-day in Brooklyn than he ever was, his old time enemies seem to have gone to the wall, and since the death of Mr. Beecber the great body Of ylslting strangers turn their steps towards the Tabernaele. Spring Is npon ui and alt kinds of busi ness Is starting up. Since Ward McAllister has Ami upon the famous sixteen who are to open the centennial quadrille, society bre-nthoo freer. Wo are fixing for a big celebration and you will begin to realize It when I tell you tint the ball alone will cost one hundred thousand dollars, Truly yours, BROADBRIM. OPJEW TO EVERYBODY-.

Eoitok. Bi.vk Sr-iii.ins, Nun,. March 25th 1880. To The Cahiioh Advocate. Although not a resident now of Pennsyl vania, still I am deeply Interested in her welfare. Prohibition will bring immortal weal to the grand old Commonwealth and very materially allay If not extinguish tho woes engendered by the drink traffic. No sane mind If It be consctellous will deny that this business Is a causo Involving life, health, prosperity, pes.ee, propertv, morals and the general welfara. It cannot be re- regulated no evil can. The past proves this. Since it Is a curse It Is wrong. ?id no license high or low imposed upon it. mil make it right. If the business Is right no law should Interfere with restrictions or Impose burdens of tax Anybody should be allowed to engage in tho business with the freedom of a grocer or dry-goods merchant. License from the government is prima pack evidence that it is wrong. The government for a compensation, in a so called matter ot expediency, allows tho nefarious traffic to exist and prosper. There Is eyery reason for prohibition for the saloon system corrupts politics, debases the citizen, and Is an enemy of civilization, and the woist enemy of religion and our American home. Therefore the Amend ment should carry in Pennsylvania; I shall now meet some of ths untenable "objections to prohibition" of you anonym ous correspondent "Vldex." 1 ne says prohibition is antl-chrlstlan fcc. First let me say that tho tiniest school boy or girl of christian parents knows this to Bo an nntruthful statement. Second, Is It not a fact that all jealous advocates of prohibition, with scarcely an exception, are praying men and women espousing the prohibition movement from a clearly christian standpoint, having en listed in the war to establish prohibition because taught from Holy Writ that we are our "brother's Keeper." Third, since the abolition of Slavery in the U. S. was a christain act, It must be" admitted that prohibition of the liquor traffic Is not antl chlstlan. Fourth, tho liquor traffic is the mightiest engine of Satan to hinder gospel progress and the Men engaged In It as wholesale or retailers as a class (allowing rare exception) are frequent violators of the law selling clandestinely on the Sab bath and election days, and day and night selling to minors and inebriates, legitimate business runs so far Into night as this. Fifth, If prohibition is pronounced by Its enemies as anti-christlan, we answer on the aboye grounds, with Christ "Every King dom divided against itself shall not stand." Mat 12-25, 20. Wine brought dishonor up on poor defiled Lot; caused priest and prophets to fall, King Solomon refers to it entailing woe and sorrow in Prov. 2929, ou, oi, 02, m. unrist auuaea to it as a symbol of wrath. The whiskey and beer of to-day are ten fold more deleorious than tho alcoholic tonics of bible days. Wo have not time In this article to dwell upon the unfermented er non-intoxicant wlnei of bible times. 2 Ho says "Prohibition in snlrlt is antt- American &c," and actually nulls at ths boot ear tops of "old sumotuarv." and is Is a wonder he didn't prate about "personal liberty." Personal liberty Is right and American If It does not exceed civil liberty, civil liberty the courts have decided to be constitutional, and the kind of nprnnnal llbertytho devotees af King Gamebrlmus sing so sadly over dare not conflict with civil liberty. Constitutional Prohibition does not Interfere with a man's eating and drinking in his own home. A mans nri vate appetite and Interests the state does not arrogate to control, as "Vldex" as sumes, it is the public liquor traffic insti tutlon that trespasses on the citizens civil liberty and disturbs public good and public weltare that tho proposed prohibitory amendment deslcns to sunuress In order that the greatest public good many lnsuro to 'the public citizen, and the coming uen eratlon eniov such a fulness of civil llbertv never before possible aside of this deplorable relic of barbarism. 3 He says prohibition Is "unnecessary" wonderful wlse-acro. I wish I had time to quote from Judge Noah Davis, of N. Y, or Judge Agnew, of your own state. Let the jails, penitentiaries, asylumns and out raged mothers and children answer this, let prohibition Iowa and Kansas speak, whoso correction houses have a less percen tage of Inmates to-day than any time under durance of tho runi trafllc. 4 "Impracticable" Let the fools that adyoeate this go to Kansas and Iowa for enllghtment. The governors of these states say the law is a daily growing success. En forcement Is coming gloriously and tri umphantly to the front, Judge Agnew says It will be enfoiced and then adds: "The example of Pcnna. will not be lost on sister states. Already the wave of temperance Is rising high everywhere, and state after state will be swept into the harbor of prohibition by the tide. Then the Constitution of the U. S. will be amended to suit the general good." 5 "Makes hypocrites' 1 I draw a breath of relief and say "fan me with a feather." Christ's gospel then tends to make hypo crites also, from the same mode "of reason- I ng. Laws "prohibiting" larceny, murder Ac, therefore make law-breakers and hypo crites. This last is the crowning argument after Oldex of the "batch," aud glyes him the feather for his cap. There Is one thing I notice opposing prohibition, does, It puts a man defending the liquor traffic so much to shame, or makes him so far "hypocritical" that he fears to give his true name. All honor to the proposed amend ment. l uopa it win pass all eyes are centered upon Penna. just now to see if she will set a nob'.o example for her sister states to follow. Wji.
