enough that Baguluy Is net in much dan
ger ; and Bagaley's possible damage was
all the court considered. It did net touch
upon the fact that the read wis being built
under a falsa pretense that came under the
ban of the constitution of Pennsylvania.
The court was net in charge of the Penn
sylvania constitution. It did net think it
any of its concern that the promoters of the
read were building it for $15,000,000, and
stocking and bending it for $40,000,000, in
violation of Pennsylvania law. The deduc
tion may be that, se far as the New Yerk
courts are concerned, the Pennsylvania
constitution may be hanged.

LANCASTER, JULY 10, ISS5.
The Biirlnl or Indigent Soldier.
The indigent seldierburial bill that became
a law en Slay 12, liS5, provides for the ex
penditure by the county of an amount net
exceeding fJIW for buiying the body of
every honorably discharged Indigent
soldier or Bailer who served his country,
and $15 for a tombstone. The county
commissioners under the act aie xequired
te appoint a sufficient number of suitable
persons in each borough, township and
ward in their lespcctive counties, who
shall satisfy themselves by examinations of
the circumstances of the case that the de
ceased soldier or sailor, whose body they
are called upon te bury, served in the army
or navy and was honorably discharged
therefrem ; that he died leaving insufficient
means te defray the burial expenses ; and
the conclusion of the appointees must be
verified by the affidavit of three neighbors.
Se far as Lancaster county is concerned,
many of tlicse appointees have already
been chosen by the commissioners, each
ward in the city being allowed two com
mitteemen, and the allotment te the town
ships of the county being made according
te their population.
This journal has always been opposed te
the false sentiment at the foundation of this
law, believing that it would open the deer
te numerous abuses, and that it was an
unnecessary stigma en the soldier element
who, satisfied when the Union was restored,
converted tlieir swords into pleughshares
and thought net of largess-from the gov
ernment. -Uaft"ftrftei'k'lieiwl legislature thought
UiflSrently, and te it Incomes necessarv te
examine the act as part of the statute law
of the state. Manifestly the act is te be
censtiued along with pre-existeut legis
lation. The act of April 11, 1851, pro
vides that the widow and children of any
decedent may claim out of his estate in
property, jeney, notes or accounts, the
guar et ?e00. It therefore becomes the
duty of the cobrnittee of the district te
ascertain if the deceased left enough for
his funeral expenses, ever and beyond the
exempted $300 valuation. Where this
committee is twe in number, if there is a
difference of opinion, who shall decide ?
The law does net say. Again, hew many
committeemen will be conscientious enough
te" make a close examination of the affairs
"(KWhe deceased with intent te comply with
the law ' And it is fair te presume that
many of these entrusted with the carrying
out of the law will knew nothing of its
previsions.
f It will be found that the state will be
called upon te pay many bills for the burial
of dead soldiers, who were far removed
fren indigence and in the abuses te which
the law will be subject, will be found addl addl
tienal reasons why it should net have been
passed.
That Horrid liarblcrc.
General Davis, the new Philadelphia
pension agent, has been standing a heavy
lire from the newspapers of that swelter
ing town because he appointed one Cel.
Barbiere, of Confederate fame, who ence
wrote an anti-Xerthern book ,te a $900 clerk
ship under him. The colonel was an old
friend of the general, who appointed him
ljccause he knew him and liked him, and
he proposes te keep him for the same
reasons. "We consider them sufficiently
geed reasons both for the appointment and
keeping. We knew of nene better. They
are the reasons that would control us under
--edrcumstances ; and it would be a real
pleasure te us te hear the dogs outside the
gate spitefully barking while we enjoyed in in
elde the gratification of our desires and judg
ment. The barking dogs of the Philadel
phia journals enjoy it, tee; they aie never
mere delighted than when they fall foul
of something te scold about; it is
se easy te scold, and it is such
a relief. Especially in het weather such
as this. They de net mean half of
what they say, hut say it because they feel
like it and are tee lazy te take something
harder but better te write about. General
Davis knows hew it is, being a newspaper
man himself ; but peer Cel. Barblere seems
te take it all in earnest, and offers te re
sign. IIe says that the daily newspapers
always reflect the views of their constitu
ents and that he is ready te take up his hat
and step out if the people de net want
him; though he is somewhat astonished
that they should get se excited ever a
small clerkship and its occupant. The
colonel, if he had ever had any connection
wjth the daily newspapers of thegreat cities,
would never have said that they rellected
the views of the people. This is just what
they de net rcllect, unless by accident.
They have no affiliation with the people,
and no sympathy with them. Their judg
ment gees wrong half the tinie when they
try te feel the public pulse ; and generally
they de net bother themselves with feel
ing for it ; they are content te feel their
own, and te gratify its specially malicious
bjats.
Here We Are 1
With that friendly solicitude about the
business of ether people, which is se emi
nently characteristic of it, thoAlcie lira
renews its expressions of concern, lest be
cause the Western Union telegraph com
pany threatens te swallow the American
Rapid and Bankers and Merchants' lines,
the iNTKLiiieENCKit and Its readcis will
be deprived of their present excellent tele
graphic press service.
Our readers will bear witness that
this journal is net accustomed te
burthen its columns with accounts
of its own business affairs, much less with
theso of its esteemed contemporaries. It
has generally believed in and acted upon
the princlple that " geed wine- needs no
bush ;" and when sometimeago.itsecured
facilities for telegraphic news far in ad
vance of anything ever before enjoyed by
the leaders of any Lancaster newspaper it
was fvulte content te let its patrons and the
general public And the fact out for them
selveswhich they have done.
When our esteemed but anxious con
temporary ever the way saw, In the
threatened extinction of the telegraphic
company which bere te the Intelliokn Intelliekn
ceu its excellent news service, gieunds for
apprehension lest we might regret having
enlarged our facilities without the permis
sien of the Western Union monopoly, the
Intelligencer tried te calm its fears.
We thought we had succeeded. It
seems that this is net the case.
It ought te have composed the feelings
of our esteemed contemporary te have ob
served the obvious fact that since " the
special who of this line te New Yerk,
which runs into the Intelligencer
office, was found te be silent," the saine
excellent news service, specially improved,
and better than ever, has nevertheless been
regularly received at this ofilce ever seme
ether wire, and published in the Intelli
gencer; as a comparison of its tele
graphic columns for the past week with
theso of our esteemed contemporaries
will bear witness.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
American Hapid and Bankers and Mer
chants' are in the hands of receivers, and
have even been letrayed into the hands of
the Western Union company, se long as
telegraph wires run te Lancaster the In-

Ignoring Our Constitution.
The New Yerk court has determined
rut te grant Ralph Bagaley's request, for a
receivership of the Seuth Pennsylvania rail
road nnd an Injunction against its further
prosecution by its promoters. It is some
what interesting te learn that a New Yerk
court can resist the temptations te enjoin;
but the judge did it la this case en the
wem'jigly sensible ground that Mr. Baga!ey
Chairman Hcnscl, of tiie Democratic statu
committee, threiiuh tils lancastnr 1ntki,i,i
OENCKit, clearly indicates that he proposes
te " push things " in the ensuing campaign,
and he already foreshadows that he will make
the war against Cel. Quay ene of unusual
bitterness and vilely irseual. Mr. Jlcnscl
clearly proclaims that ail the old personal
scandals against Quay will be wanned ever
and flung lu tlie faces of tije people Scran Scran
ten Jlepublican.
If the Scranteu Jiepublican belonged te
self-iespecting journalism, which probably
is impossible under its present direction, it
would hardly have invented the tale it
prints; or, having given currency teit.it
would make an early opportunity te correct
its mistake or retract its fabrication.
Neither Chairman Ilensel nor tlifi In
tklligenckh has foreshadowed any such
thing as is here alleged, nor has any such
purpose been proclaimed. On the contrary,
this journal has deprecated, as it has always
deprecated, the dissemination of "personal
scandals" as elements of a political can
vass ; and with regard te the special candi
dacy of Mr. Quay it has explicitly said that
into his public record and net his private
life is what we expect " searching inquiry"
will be made.
It suits the Jtipublican and seme ether
friends of the candidate te misconstrue
this purpose and te shift the issue. They
knew that while personal attacks en the
candidate evoke a dcgiee of popular sym
pathy for him, the exposure of his public
relations and official record are legitimate
subjects for discussion. It pleases them
te try and confound these two things.
They will net succeed In feeling the voters.
What a blessed consummation it would
be If strikers knew when net te strlkel
Uxdeh Republican administration it lias
been customary for corporations te run the
general land olUce as they pleased, and com
missioners wero went te wink at thorn when
they overredo a plain law that was In the
way of their desires. Ju the past thovbave
been allowed in addition te the bread belts of
land set aside for their use under the grant
ing acts, additional belts en each slde bocause
the corporations would in course of time
select from them sections te roplace ethor
sections withm the limits of the grant which
they could net have bocause settlers had
taken legal possession et them. It was mani
iestly unfair te the bona lido sottler te with
draw these lands from sottlemont and have
him await the conveuionco of the corpora
tions. Land Commissioner Sparks has
decided that a withdrawal of land within
indemnity limits is oifectlvo only as infor
mation in definlng the limits within which
selectiens may be made at a proper titne, and
docs net prbvent the settler lrem taking a
homestead according te law bofero the cor
poration has made its lawful selection. It
rcmalned for a Democratic administration te
check corporation aggression that waxed fat
under Republican rule.

Dancing is ene of the graceful pastlmes
which from time whoreerthemomoryof man
runneth net te the contrary has been in use
as a physical expression et delight But
there are many jteeple en this mundane
spbore who cannot see it in that light. Sam
Jenes, for instance, lntimated In a recent ad
dress that this form ofiimusemont might be
all very well In shoel, hut was net preper
for anyene who made any pretensiens te
being a Christian. A Georgia man gees fur

tried te cut the cords lu the feet of his daugh
ter se that alie could net imperil her soul by
dancing. The terpsicherean art, however,
seems te thrivoen persecution. It is u most
cliarming recreation and healthful when net
carried te an extreme. It has lived down
the assaults of many enemies, and It shows
no signs or railing strength at the pre-en t
day.

Une storm vnlternoen in March, when the
snow and slcut beat IuhI and furious nihilist
the little window panes, weaving thick cur
tains rapidly thereon, Cleii. Putnam sat at his
rude table lu the front room below. An uul.V
scowl indicated that he was greatly dis
pleased, probably with the in for mat Ien that
no Rathercd from the reperts that be was
busily examining. A young man of hand
some features, und whose tall mid sinewy
figure was garbed In a uniform that was
faded ami Nully worn, steed listlessly at the
window. IIe Hcemed te be idly waiting the
pleasure of his commander, and he ieund
nothing better te de than te leek out upon
the whlto-slieatbed trees and dreary Holds,
and upon the rough in hi of UiOHoldferw, that
stretched awny te the ciIke of the forest. A
few Keiiliucls, battling with the storm with
bended heads, and the heavily hanging
smeke that Issued from the roeTn el the cabins
wero the only bIkiih of life. The young man
knew Unit within theso huts worn dlscontent
and auger that were fust lipeiilng into
mutiny, liecaiise of the scanty clothing, peer
ami insufficient Jeed, and long arrearages of
lay.
The furious scratching or a quill pen nt the
gencrnl'a table was interrupted by a sudden
sharp, crackling sound, Hint Indicated that
thOKluts had caught in u defect in the pajier,
and had thcreby frescoed the sheet with
blotches of ink. An impatient ejaculation,
rounded oil' ith a vigorous oath, coiilinned
me suspicion.
The young man turned te the genetal :
"Can 1 net help you new, sir?" he asked,
scarcely nble te rchtraiii the smile that
showed in his eyes, as he saw the great un-
cenqucrcu gcncini overcome uy se trivial a
thing as the perrerslty of a quill icn.
" os, you can mend my pen and get u
light."
"It grows dark early te-day, nlr," said the
young officer as he mended the pen.
"Net he dark here as It grows ever in that
camp. Tills discontent is getting very dark.
It threatens mutiny, but by ? Ill havu
nene. I'll crush It, if I h.ive te blew em te
eternity."
"1)n vnn think Ihn discontent nn threaten
ing ? thoeftlcor asked.
"Threatening? Yes. Its getting het as-,
and the worst of it is, the men hae reason ler
It. 1 don't care se much about their pay j
they'll get that Heme time; hut their rations
aie bad and scarce, d d scare, Whitney and
seme of tlu-se fellow h are doing duty bare
footed. It's a d 1 dibgrace. Hut they're
my seldiers, anil by Heaven this mutiny lias
get te step. Why, the Connecticut brigade
aie projiesing te inarch in a body te llartlerd
and get redress lrem the assembly at the
IKiint el the uayoneu They eugiil te nave it,
tee, but there'll bu no mutiny here as long as
1 command these men."
Majer Whitney lighted two tallow candles
and placed them en the general's desk, and
was suggesting that he was ready for any
further service, when the dull, quick reason reasen reason
auce of hoofs upon the irereti eartii was
heard.
" Dispatches."' said Putnam, Interroga
tively. "es," replied the young officer lrem the
window, "and the bearer lias ridden fast, for
the herse steams liem the Hanks and nos
trils." "Soe tlut I have them, quick," said Put
nam. In a moment the dispatches were pluced In
the general's bauds, and the bearer was
bidden te shelter his herse and then find such
comfort-HS lliere w- in a big lire, a mug of
het rum, and something teeat, and he joy
fully went his way, llrht te the barn, then te
the Kitchen.
The old warrior glanced at his ine.sh.igcs,
and then, witli his Handy hair in dishevelled
fury falling ever his eyes and ujieu his ptilly
cheeks, ids long arm waving with passion,
se that ill would it have been had they ceme
in contact witli anything, and with stamp
ings that made the oak iloer tremble, he
foamed and choked uttering the meit em
phatic oaths.
The internal British have been Informed
of this threatened mutiny. Whitney, and
Washington himself sends me word that he
has reason te think they contemplate a sud
den attack en us, taking advantage of the
discontent. Let 'em come, mutiny or no
mutiny. I'll glve em' a skin full of lead.
We haven't get much bread, but wo've
plenty of powder and ball, thank Ged."
" by, then, de you becoine se furious?"
asked Whitney, who was such a (Inn friend
of Putnam's that he feared net at times te
check the outbursts of jiasslen, senior mem
ber et liis stall' and secretary as he was.
"Furious I Why, don't you see that thore's
either a spy or a traitor in this camp, who
has been taking reierts te the enemy in New
Yerk? I can light every mother's son in
KingGcorge's army in open held and fair
fight, but I can't light sples and deserting
traitors."
"If I might suggest," said Whitney, dofor defor dofer
entially, "might it net be a geed plan te glve
theni a dose of their own medicine?"
"What's that bullets?"
"Xe. They seem te be fend of sples and
deserters. Give tiiein one."
"By thunder, that's worth thinking about.
It shall be done. I'll glve them a deserter
who'll send them scurrying oll'evor the Xer
walk pike en a false scent, and that'll give
me two or three days' mere time. Hut,"
added Putnam, thoughtfully, "our man is
away new, and I don't knew another ene I
can trust"
"Shall I try te find ene ?',
"Yes, but be discreet."
A gontle tap at the deer seemingly needed
no veice te reveal te Majer Whitney who It
was that thus begged ontrance. He went
quickly, and lifted the old brass latch. There
en the threshold he beheld a sleudcr, grace
ful figure, which drepped the quaint rocoil recoil roceil
ing courtesy of the time. But though her
body was thus bended, lier head was orect,
se that Whitney saw the Hash of mirth in
the brown, and mischief-loving eyes, and in
the arch, coquettish smile of the full though
aonsltlve lips, upon which emotion vibrated
with revealing touch.
Here Putnam seated himself witli vicious
energy at his desk, rapidly wrete a few lines,
and then handing the iaper te Whitney,
cemmanded him te see that the erder was
promulgated that ovening. The young ofll efll ofll
cer, as he copied it, Haw that it Instructed that
sentries should be doubled until further no
tice, that special pains be taken te apprehend
spies or deserters and all suspicious persens,
and announced that overy dosertor or spy
would de shot or hanged en the iluding of a
drum-head court-martial, and without an
hour's delay.
Fer a hall hour thereafter Putnam and
Whitney exainiucd sucli rough maps of the
country as they had, and, with the quick In
spiration of a true soldier, the general at the
end of that time had, as he believed, fathom
ed the plans of the enemy.
"They'll ceme across from White Flalna
by the Banbury pike. Whitney. They can't
gut here inside el three ilavs. If it wasn't for
this incipient mutiny I'd go out and meet
'em. If 1 could only held 'em off for a week
I'd put down this trouble of ours und then
whip the life out of theso d d red ceata."
"Ah I" said Whitney, retumiiig the
courtesy, "the enslaver comes for the hungry
there had a sweetheart llke you missy.
Tbere'd be no mutiny then. Come new
what mero ran the old genernl say 7 Tlicre's
nothing llke a sweetheart te spunk up a
soldier."
"Theu yours must have been a witching
ene, sir," said the glrL "But come: you
knew wiiat I've iet in the kitchen, and if
you dally here they'U seen be like your own
cannon balls."
"'Tla dumplings, Whitney, as I'm u
rebel. Come here missy, that I may give
you a kiss te iy you " the general said.
" That is cheap payment," said she archly.
"De you think because yeu've beaten the
redcoats se often that a maid llke me jnlzes
such curesRes ? Humph ! But here, your hair's
awry; and yeu've becn in a passion, ler 1 did
near you stamping aoeui nrui using sucu
vigorous language that I put my hands te my
earn."
With dolt and dolicate touch she arranged
the warrior's tangled tawny locks, Whitney
the while watching with admiring glances,
and wOuderlni! whether he envied mero the
general's great fame ami abilities, or I he
modest attention of thin girl.
Hlie led thorn te the table, whorelho snowy
dumplings exuded fragrant steam, that min
gled with the aroma of Medferd rum, was
most be witching excctnncy for the Uiste as
it was exhilarating realization for the nostrils.
"Whero Is your father, missy?" said the
general, as she laid the dumpling upon his
unite.
"He's taking supper with Gen. Peer nnd
his ofilce rs te-night."
" Ha 1 ha 1" rearod Putnam. "Peer's feast
ing him en iwridge, whlle you nre starving
us en dumplings. Ay iilictn I By the low
ers, Whitney, I never ate such line ones."
"Ne norrldire at all has Gen. Peer. Fer I
placed a dozen or mero dumpling lu the milk
pall, and, Willi a blanket ever them te keep
the Htcam within, sent them with my best
cnnipllnieuts; and lather tias taken a ganen
of rum, tee," said the girl.
"Yeu're a geed and brave girl, missy, but
the Lord help Peer and the rostef them If
veur father makes het flip for them te-night.
'TUwelI thore's no bnsinossen hand. We
knew what Marvin's Hip is, eh. Whitney?"
Tlie young officer smiled, but us he cast
liis eyas upon tlie fair Mary Marvin it
seemed as though thcre wero for him greater
iioteiiuy and persuasiveness for Intoxication
lu her glance than in the stillest mug el flip
