It has never been maintained by the friends of real reform that because retreuebment at IlarrisbttrK began with lopping off the supei lluetis officeholders that it was te end there. The iNTKLMtsENCKR and ether Democratic journals ami stump speakers, who during the late campaign held up the long Het of eiliecs filled by Republican Houses from year te year as one pioef of the tendeucy of tht party te s-peud the public money te nuintiu its organization, pledged their party te abate these useless places and vdien the members canie to gether that pledge was insisted upon. There were plenty of them who preferred reform s'm'ether. year and who would have been pleased W ha,ve availed them selves and their party of the opportunity te simply carry out laws made- by Republican Legislatures and, having lilled all the available places, resolve that, he'eaf i-r the sinecures should be abolished. Rut the great ma jority of the members, sti llened te their purpose by the sentiment of the party, steed up like men and with an abnegation of patreu:ge that no party iu this or- any ether stale has shown, resolved te fill no offices at, fust except such as were abso lutely necessary, and dispensed with about a dozen for the lirst thirty days of the session. The speaker and the chief clerk, with considerable patronage iu their own hands, followed the same policy. The thirty days have elapsed long since ; the IIeu.se finds it can dispense with the places it has net lilled and, despite all pressure brought te bear upon thuiu by piaee-huu-ter.s, and even the willingness of the Re publicans te help te (ill the .sinecures, the Democratic fneinbeis have resisted all temptation and piesent te Iheir consti tuents the gratifying record of having practically abated ever a score el offices which under the law they could have filled and thereby reducing the salary loll of the Heuse nearly $78,000. Notwithstanding this fact, se easily demonstrable, lying leperts have bceu scut from heie te the Fit.tsburgli Commer cial Gazelle and the Philadelphia Press te the effect that the officers lirst tepertcd te be uniieeessaiy " were sneaked in by piece meal, and today they are all in, except two sergeants at-aims, who will be iu in plenty of tune te get the full n.xl ary i In Older t hat. it a tale shall set the a correct list. et"th may be seen hew plain n down, I append here iw oflicers of tiiu last Re publican ilouae and the present Demo cratic Heuse, and by comparison it will be seen that, tliuic ate twenty-three places which the Democrats have net filled, ab solutely denying themselves, in the public interest, that much patronage allowed thorn by liw.- of Republican enactment and of which Republican Houses have never failed te take advantage, and the JtepubUcnh Atom it te iy Ms its entire number.

It is true that there has bceu some growling hereabouts, and some ridicule even from Democratic newspapers at the action of Chief Clerk Meek in dispensing with the services of a large portion of a brigade of "scrub women," who were for merly employed here te clean the capitol rightly. The truth is that when Mr. Meek came iu he found that nearly twice as many persons were eugaged iu this work as were necessary te de it. He did net recegnize the propriety of 'the state paying for services net rendored it. Had it been his duty or privilege te furnish employment for all the. peer women of Harrisburg he would have been glad te accommedato even double the number that were can ied along ou the pay roll before, but bolieviug that he was a pub lic servaut, appointed te watch the public interests, he employed the number neces sary aud the result is the Heuse is kept just as clean as before, with few mere than half the uumber employed by his predecessor. His eight pages are doing all the work that was done by Huhn's fifteen; aud, as for the supplies, 1 dezeu buckets and 1 V dozen brooms have thus far sufficed for the entire session, while under the old regime about a half car lead were uicd up (or can ied off) every month. Rut, te offset the effect upon the popu lar mind of these ecouemies, made iu piusuance with Democratic pledges, it has been given out that the business of the Heuse is retaided for waut of a sufficient number of efficers te de the work of the Heuse. A comparison of the progress of business at the same date in the piesent and the last Heuso will very seen dispose of this preteuse : SESSION I SSI -2.

A Marveleimly Alnlteniied Child In 11 lliitu bte family at Trenten. There have been hosts of visiteis te the humble frame residence of James Thomp son, 3S9 Seuth Warren street, Treuten, for a week past. The attract ieu is a douule deuule douule tengtiod baby. It is at ence the surprise of medical men and the joy of seekers after weuderful things in nature. The physicians pronounce it a wonderful ease and the old ladies of the neighborhood declare tlnft they "ueversaw the like iu their whole oxperience." A reporter went te see the wonderful girl. It was clothed in a leuir white muslin dress, with a blue ribbon around the neck, and the tiniest socks imaginable. Its weight, clothes and all, is only feiu puands, or two pounds less than shortly after birth. Its head, about the size of a baseball, has a heavy covering of dark hair. This is the only respect in which it has developed since birth. The arms and legs are no larger than many persons' fingers. The skin en the legs is loose and llabby aud doubles up around the bones. The baby has pretty blue eyes. It was born ou October 18 last. There were four little girls in the Thomp Themp Thomp seu family before the arrival of this little midget. Nene of these wero malformed in any way. Twe of them, bright little maidens, played around the room while the reporter looked at the marvelous sis ter. Mrs. Thompson, the mother, is about thirty-eight years of age, She said that the double tougue is best seen when the baby cries. This condition was soem complied with, for it desired te go back te the mother's arms. As it cried the lit teo mouth opened and the two separate tongues, one ever the ether, wcre exposed. Neither ene is well developed. The lower ene scorns te be split paitially in the mid die. In addition te the tongues there is a deuble row of lower gums. These, tee, are clearly distinguishable. The most serious malformation was yet te be seen. Leeking te the reef the mouth it was found that there was no palate. This in terferes with the child's feeding. Most of the nourishment administered returns through the nasal organs. Dr. Leavitt, the attending physician, says it is doubt ful whether the baby will live. Mrs. Thompson is incliucd te the same opinion. Dorrewiug Toels. Coriespendeneo Country Gentleman. Dr. Franklin once said with a geed deal of truth, that " he who gees a borrowing irees a sorrowing :" but I have found by experience that "he who gees a lending has annoyance unending." All my neater neighbors who lived in a village once bor rowed my square harrow te work their gardens until one day I found that six teeth were gene. I then told them that I would contiuue te lend it en couditieu that everv borrower should replace ene teeth till all were restored. Seme get mad.ethers went away aud said nothing, and only one agreed te the terms. But the worst case of the above mentioned "annoyance" was described at a late meeting of the 1 mira Farmers' club. Mr. Armstrong said he bought a mewing machine many years age, but before he hitched the horse te it a borrower came. Ue took it, aud it went from place te place until half its value was lest and in fact, Mr. Armstrong said he sold it for just half its first cost, without having used it a single time and made a geed bargain. Iu seme neighborhood this evil is much worse than in ethers, and neighbors think they have the first right te a tool, and the owner the second chance. Some never bring the things home, aud often the whele neighborhood is searched te knew who has it. The only thanks which the owner sometimes gets is in the shape of a rebuke for lending a tool which has some defect about it, and for which he ought te get it mended and pay for the work ready te lend again. I could tell a great many mere such cases, New, is it net the duty of every geed far mer te use all the influence he can te break up this wretched custom. I offer no ether suggestions ; each one must decide en the best way te de it. m m Aa indiscreet man is like an unsealed letter, everybody can read him, but the wise man se curcth in time what in time he will surely need a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.
