Huntington' liClters.
Mr, 0. 1 Huntington Is a gcntlemau
of whom thu country Is hearing a geed
deal Just new. He lias been doing a
great business for twenty years past
in railroad building, but lie has net
bnfore bad the concentrated attention
of the people as he has It today.
It would have been better If we had
given mere attention te Mr. Hunting
ten. Hut he is a gentleman devoted te
thesingld aim of money making, and
disposed te de it with as little public
notice ns possible. He has net been nu
aspirant for funic The mere quietly lie
could roll up his cash the mere agreeable
te his tastes, because the mere effective
for his aim. Mr. Huntington has, how
ever, had a great deal te de with our
public men. He had te cultivate them,
becaiiRO there was money In It te him.
Certain letters are new published which
exhibit him In his operations In Congress
at a period of his carear within the last
decade. He was already a railroad mag'
nate. He and three- associates had
obtained from the United States the
lands and bends with which they had
built the Central Pacific railroad, and
had leaped at ence Inte the possession of
great fortunes. Themas A. Scott fol
lowed a leug way after them with a new
Pacific ftllread scheme. It was the
noted Texas Pacific which Mr. Scott
engaged te build with Uin philanthropic
Intention of giving the people a compet
ing line te the Pacific. On this ground
he asked Congress for a subsidy.
Mr. Huntington and his associates
wanted te kill Mr. Scott's read, and
they commenced the building of the
Southern Puclflc at about the same time.
Mr. Huntington devoted himself te the
work of persuading Congress net te aid
Mr. Scott. His very effective argument
was that the Southern Pacific company
would build without aid from the gev
eminent the read which Mr. Scott would
enlj build with it. It is this period of
struggle te which the letters te Colten
relate, and they are full of interest as
portraying the views and moves of a
gigantic lobbyist in persuading legisla
tieu for private interest. Mr. Colten
was the actlve partner of the Central
Pacific quartette in building the South
ern Pacific ; he died before the pieject
was fully completed, and his associates,
of course, uudertoek te swindle his
widow out of his share of the profits.
These interesting letters are brought out
in the course of the suit te show the
confidential relations between Colten
and Huntington.
Hunticzten certainly writes te him
with great freedom and thoroughly ex-
pcees his own character In his cemmuni-
catiens. He appears te have no thought
tiat any means he may adept te further
his plans cau be objectionable te n prep-
erly educatid taste. He shows a sensible
appreciation of the public voice by we especially recommend it te the con
cultivating newspaper advertising sideratien of the granger brethren who
when it can be had cheap. His
fondness for cheap instrumentalities shall be added te the curriculum. Dr.

sataple of the uccfefal Ar.-.crkrm dol
lar hunter. He attend? strictly u his
own buiirifc ; says plainly, hut
in bad English, what he has te
say, when it milts him te say it;
never halts at devices that will clve
leverage te Ills schemes ; lias no regard
for public Interests that cress his own ;
in truth, a thoroughly selfish, unculti
vated, natural dollar smeller. Since
these dajs Mr. Huntington has ger,e en
flourishing. Mr. Scott did net set his
subsidy, but made a coalition with
Huntington and his associates aud built
his read te join theirs ; then he sold out
te Gould ; and new Gould sits lamenting
the bad bargain he made. Mr. Hunt ng ng
ten started 111 from the East ; bought the
Chesapeake and Ohie read, Inducing the
state of Virgnia te sacrifice its interest
in it. Heseld beiida at high figures, which
depreciated In the bands of the holders,
through the pretended embarrassment
of the read. Securing favorable terms
of ndjustmeiit, M Huntington has
gene en with his enterprise, txtenditig it
westward through Kentucky and across
the Mississippi, and eastwaid down the
peninsula between the Yerk and the
James rivers te Newport News, opposite
Norfolk, w here he has laid out a great city
iiuu expects, preuaiuy, te establish a sea
beard metropolis. Mr. Huntington is a
niHiief great views and enterpriser, but
s.idl deficient in moralsense, we fear.
TiiKjeiirtliat closes te-day has beeu
fraught with many calamities aud pliys
ical disturbances of nature. As early as
.lnuuury, destructive Heeds en the Han
ube and Uhlue, in Europe, were reported
and Pebruary saw the Ohie ilveratlts
highest pelut, and the cities uleng lis
banks Heeded. The earthquake nt Ischla
by which 2,000 persons perished came in
July, and the month following saw the
Java vplcanie eruptions, and great losses
of llfe mid property. An earthquake in
Asia Miner aud death dealing tornadoes
in the Seuth and West in our own coun
try ndded their mites te the physical
horrors with which the earth was visited.
Apart from these disturbances of nature
nu unusually large list of disasters have
taken place, such as the Tivoli ex
cursion and Brooklyn bridge calami,
ties, losses of life by fire, vessels sunk In
mid ocean nud ether ills te which flesh Js
heir. "War has also raised Its grim vis.
aged head. Prance has had trouble in
Mmiauascar, and still maintains n war
like attitude towards CJiinn in the Ten?
quju dispute. El Mahdl lias knocked
the Etfyptlen piwer in the Soudan into
n cocked, hat by the destruction of the
army of Hlcka r.tslia. The government
of Ireland is still a thorn In the side of
Great Dritian, and Russia adds her per
tlen te thoyear'a horrors by the less
Ufa and property that attended the fierce
persecution of the Jews within her
realm. Altogether 1&S3 ranks well with
1(1(10, which galned the name of " annus
mirnbllis" from the many disasters
crowded into its small compass.
Up In Wllkesbarre a U. S. ceuinils
Blener has sensibly decided that the
federal statute prohibiting private de
livery cempaules from carrying mes
B,i'es must be construed strictly, and
that it will net apply unless the company
or Individual doing this kind of business
carries the writings by regular trips and
at stated routes ever established pest
routes. Where there was no time fixed,
no place (ixed, no route definitely laid
down or marked out ever which these
messengers would travel dally or weekly
at a certain hour in the day In order te
deliver or receive letters, their doings de
net come within the statute. At present
the government imposes two eeut pest
age upon drop letters in Lancaster and
ether carrier delivery eilices , in any
considerable quantity they can be de
livered by private enterprise at half this
rate or less. It is net fair that the
public should be deprived of the chance
te avail Itself of tills, and the Wilkes
barre commissioner's interpretation of
the law is Just and reasonable, In striking
contrast with the decision of se nianj
federal appointees in judicial and semi
judicial places, who conceive it te be
their duty te always construe doubtful
statutes In favor of the government and
against common sense .is well as public
convenience.
TiiKitK has been another atrocious
cute of illegal hanging down in Missis
sippi. Like the series of murders which
led te this fearful execution of .ludge
Lynch's process, the fiendish work of
the frenzied mob had "no political sig
nificance." Hut it is a dark blot upon a
clvllUed community that such violations
of the law should meet with pepul.tr ap
preval and be visited with no punishment.
The Seuth and West have in times past
had mere of this kind of occurrences
than the earlier settled portions of the
country, but of late years mob hangings
have been disgracefully frequent in the
Northern and Middle states, and they
have no room te reproach Mississippi
for the shameful event which has just
stained its soil. Pennsylvania, Ohie,
Indiana and Illinois, have recently al
lowed these infractions of the law te go
by unpunished, and every time they
occur the bends which held society te
order become laxer, aud the sanctity of
life and law is mere and mere en
dangered.

This we are net disposed te question, and

lectu il visions of their did Iren. Anether
form of mero serious critic, mih meets us
in the charge that ear c nuinen schools aie
a failure, becuise crime is en the inciease.
The traiuiug glveu In them is said te be oe
destitute of moral force and directness, se
purely nvmUl, and se landless of the
ethical side of our htimiu nature as te
demoralize our social life, and increase
instead of decreasing the sum of human
wiekeduess.
" It might as well be sai I that general
family life, and the legal means adopted
te repress crime, aud the various religious
methods, are a tailure as te charge the
common sch'iels with resp mobility for
the increase iu wickedness. The common
schools must take their Ju'i share of th
burden, but net allot it. Tneyhiv.n
right te be, nor are they, pe'sed against
the religious sentiment of the citizenship
of the statu. They ought net te be, nor
are they, irreverent tewaid the worship
paid te Ged in thu thousand temples that
adorn our laud.
"While specific confession of faith can
not be bought, jet that morality which
rents upon a Divine roveli'.i iu ; that dis
cipliue of the soul which comes fiem
Ged's Werd, aud from prayer and praise,
ought uet te b. nor is it excluded from
our sch jeIi. Neither infidelity, nor bias

garded as proper qiialilt'Utiens ler our

Superintendent Highce admits that
better ethical results should be leached
than are found at present. Tuts dehu
'uenc he ascribes te the constant chang
ing el t'-acbers. " Year by year they
come and go, aud gain only a trausieut
Acquaintance as they hurry by. They are
tee much like hirelings by the year
They vanish from view se quickly as te
leave no clustering reminiscence for ma

the delight thereof Their hfe aud
thought aud high purpose bavu had no
time te enter into thu vision of the child's
soul, and till it with high hopes aud aspir
ations. They seem alme.it as pedagogic
tramps, uet teachers.
"Every effort should, thoieforo, bu made
te give a longer and mero continuous ten

schools, and te soaure, for this end, teach

such as te givu te their .re.ioecu and per

Perhaps weru the salaries of our leaohers
sufficiently iucreased aud a larger tenure

might tccuru permanent teachers for our
