Judge Yerke8, who has worthily sua
ceeded te the bench In Bucks county,
has been directing the attention of Uie
grand Jury and the public there te tlie
Importance of the offlce of county audi
ter, which he Informs them Is net u
merely ministerial one, but a place In
which the Incumbent has te exercise
judicial functions. " It Is net enough
te audit a bill because it has been paid.
It is the auditors' duty te knew whether
it should liave been paid or net and te
charge it ugalnst the disbursing etllccr
if it was paid unlawfully." The elllce
corresponds with that of controller in
the municipal government, which has
been dignified Inte one of great import
nnce ; as, for instance, In the ense of Mr.
PattlBen, who first gave It its real sig.
nlDcance In Philadelphia, and gained
much deserved credit for himself by in
telligent and fearless administration of
it. Throughout the counties of the
state generally the elllce has been a per
functory one, being bo3tewod most fre
quently as a petty party reward.
In this county for some years there
has been a growing disposition te make
the audita audit, but partly for lack
of capacity and partly from the lack of
a proper motive the investigations have
net always been wisely directed, and
even well intentieued movements
against some existing abuses have net
uniformly commanded unqualified popu
lar respect.
The present attitude of the auditors
in tills county, In surcharging the com
missioners with all payments made by
them, contrary te legal authority, is un
doubtedly a correct one, leaving te the
courts te declde whether the auditors
are right in their const iuct Ien of the
law. The principal subject for com
plaint here has been the enormous sums
paid out as costs In dismissed
cases, in most of which the ends
of justlce were abused and scan
dalized rather than subserved.
These bills have been paid, it is te be
assumed, uniformly upeii the approval
of the county solicitor, au official for
whose selection the people and net the
commissioners are resienslble. That he
has performed his duty in a slovenly nnd
incapable manner is very obvious, and
he will probably take refuge behind the
meagre salary paid as net suilicient te
justify the rigorous examination that
would be necessary te test the correct
ness of every bill of costs presented.
The whole system, or the abuse te
which our system of county administra
tien is subjected, demonstrates the need
of an entirely different kind of men in
the local offices. The overwhelming He
publican majority in this county has
tempted that party te the utter subordi
nation of public interests te personal and
factional advantages in lllling the county
elllces. The result Is a vicious adminis
tration of public affairs. Ne laws can
be made that will make unfit men capa
ble officials, or which will check the
rapacity of the dishonest, but once
public attention i3 fully aroused te the
importance of an office there is s mie
hope that men may be selected te square
with the place.
.V Weakening Corporation.
We are likely te have cheap telegraphy
befere long. The effeit of the Western
Union company te buy up competing
companies, which has been continued
through many years, has left it tee
weak for further essays of that charac
ter. It is only interested new In an en
deaver te keep Itself alive. The Indica
tions are that it will fade away before
the competition preparing for it. Any
strong patty could enter into this com
petition successfully ; and i he party is at
hand in the Baltimore & Ohie company,
which is actively preparing te reach
all paying telegraphic points in the
country with its lines. An independent
cable line owned by Mr. Bennett of the
Herald and Mr. Mackay, of bonanza
fame, is about te be laid.and it Is certain
te remain an independent line. As
Mr.ilackny has said te some one, inquir
ing en the subject, the owners are able te
wait long for their profits, aud this enter
prise will net be hampered by demands
of stockholders for speedy dividends.
Mr. Bennett's Interests as a newspaper
proprietor are an additional guarantee
that the new cable line will preserve Its
autonomy. The felly of the old lines in
swallowing each ether lias had a like
weakening effect In the resultant crea
tures that has met the Western L'uien
anaconda. They are both at the mercy of
the young, alert and uuburthened rivals,
by land and sea, which we knew are
coming te stay, because they are strong
enough te conquer and it will ba profita
ble te them te fight.
It is a matter for congratulation that
the often divided and betreubled De
mocracy of Philadelphia have coine te a
substantial agreement upon se excellent
a representative for delegate at large
from this statu te the Democratic
national convention jis Mr. W. F. liar
rlty. They could have presented none
whom the party in the rest of the state
would mere heartily approve. Thoceuree
f Mr. Harrlty in directing the
organization se as te present the great
est harmony compatible with its highest
efilc eney has wen for htm tlie entire
confidence of the large body of Demo Deme
crats in the interior, who knew that se
much of tlie result In thlHHiMtn ,i,.,w.,.i
upon the wisdom, the unselfishness and
the honesty which control the erganiza
lien m riiiiauefpiiiH, aud when tlie
party there puts forth one who stands
forthese the Democracy of the state
will be only tee glad te de him honei.

within a few inches of that, but at clot en
o'clock yVdncfilay night, had begun te
recede. The twin cities, Allegheny and
Pittsburg, piosent a spectacle neu'r before

although Mirroutided by vatr, and the
inanag-r eilers frce transpertati n te and
from the niii-eum in beats At night the
city is in a s'a'e of semi darkness. The
water is up t the gas works ,md, while
tlie gas is Mill nuruieg. it is very ilitn.
Ou the se'Hh side every street south el
Carsen, from t'hartiers creek te Thirtieth,
is inundated, while all property within
three squaris of the liver in Allegheuy is
submerged. At this time it is impossible
te estimate the leis, but it is safe te say it
will net fall short of J 1,000 000 aud may
greatly exceed that auuuiut. The 1 iss in
some instances will reach fiO.OOO while u
few hundreds will cover ethers. Fully
five thousand fimilies are rendered home
less by the ilevl. Arrangements have been
made te sholter them in the public halls
ami ou Thursday morning, ami in accer

Wednesday night uens was received that
the water is receding, although it is still
warm and raiumg b or a time Wednesday it
was (eared that the Sixteenth street bridge

was prohibited, but at midnight it was

The question " Heselved that the
establishment of a whipping pest by law
for the puuishmcut et crirniuals would be
beuetici.il te the moialsef the community
and the welfare of society," was adopted
for discusiieii at the nexf meeting (Mon
day oveuiug, Feb. 11, lsl) of the btras
burg literary association.
Ie modest and refined ears this may
stuiiil harshly, and in this present enlight
ened age it may be taken as a spirit of
biutahty uud bit bar if in m the p-inishmerit
of wrong doing ; but when it is considered
that the criminal in very many instances
h moved only by brutal passiuiis and
instincts in utter disregard of all the
eutre ittes ofparent.il, moral or religious
instiuctieu, it would seem the most ado
ipiate punishment and the only defence
that an injured, enlightened community
can adept.
It is is au old adae which says, " If a
mau will net hear he must be undo te
feel." Aud it is dem eustrably and sadly
true that many men in this onlightencd
ami Chiistian age are feiixcoptible of ue
feeling hut that of physical pain ; or, if
they have any such sense they willfully
ignore and disregard it. There are men
who allow thouiselves te be prompted
and guided aloue by the most degrading
brutal passions aud b iaBt in thorn,
whether aroused by temporary oxeitauts
or hy criminal indulgence. Their delight
seems te culminate in the intlictieu of
cruelty upon their fellow man aud in the
satining of their bloodthirsty vongeauco
at the most trivial ellense.
Such men are iucapable of reformation
by a human, moral or intelleetii.il process;
tin y have no regard or fear for prison
bulw or bars, oveu if they could be sub
jected te thorn. The only remedy for the
cure of such moral depravity is the
prompt, curtain aud sure infliction of
bodily suffering and disgrace. And such
ii the whipping pest. Di.i i srr..

te receive se dt-lightlul a reception from
the poepio of the el 1 town of Laucaster.
He eulegized the Grand Army or the He

of its ranks by th.it reaper whose nime is

through the whitening hair nud unsteady

that their race is nearly run, that I belong

General McCaituey declared that if he
must talk he would rather talk te soldiers
than te any ether class of people he knew.
He loved te face a soldier without a
musket ; for it is no respecter of persens ,
its highet.t ambition seeming te be te get
up a Itinera! ; aud he didn't yearn after its
attendance up iu his own funeral.
The general continued iu this strain for
several minutes, evoking rears of laughter
and tumultuous applause. Iu conclusion,
he ventured the prediction that until thu

come only a tottering squad, their hearts
