LANCASTER, JULY 30, 1883.
"Test the Question.
Tlie people of Pennsylvania have a geed
deal larger interest in the absorption by
the Pennsylvania railroad company of the
rival Vanderbilt lines in this state than
simply the consideration of who makes and
vrhe loses money by the transaction. It
may be,as is claimed, that the construction
of the new reads was begun by people who
put their moneyinte it purely ns a com
mercial cnterprise, and net as a public
benefaction ; and thai when they can make
mere money out of it by selling than by
holding it, they may be reasonably ex
pected te close out at such a profit. It is
2vcn asserted with confidence that the pro
testing stockholders who resist the absorp
tion only wait te get the best terms.
This is net a sufficient answer te the
great considerations of public policy in
volved Tli8 Seuth Pennsylvania railroad,
by means which may yet be the subject of
serious investigation and startling disclos
ure, obtained extraordinary legislative
grants from the representatives of the peo
ple. Their constituents were reconciled
te these lemarkable concessions only by
Ihe assurance that they weie te promote a
railway competition which would relieve
the public from monopoly, and grant that
relief from freight discriminations which
even uie constitution lias net becureu.
Capital embarked in tlie venture that was
pijmiLsed te be a serious one, and enter
piM staked its fortunes en it;
vst labor lias been pei formed en the
construction of the new read; a line
of noble piers marks its track across the
f. Susquehanna and mighty mountains have
been half tunnelled te admit the passage
of its leudwny. Is this labor te be wasted ?
Is the law te be mocked V Aie popular
rights te be trampled upon ? "We agree
with the Philadelphia Recerd that a serious
publicrraestien is involved, of which there
cannot be tee early a test.

The Man ami the Issue.
The Philadelphia Times, having canvass
ed ,a V0)i tlie Democratic press and
rer local views, as te the choice of
the newspapers for the Democratic nemi
nation for state treasurer and for opinions
as te a proper party lw'tsj te inspire the
camnalen acainei. Quay, expresses some
disappointmep' that there is neither con-
n-atien of personal choice, nor single-
of purpose as te the Issue upon which
e candidate te beat Mr. Quay, ought te
be presented. The Times gees further and
with that consideration for the Penn-
Bylvania Democracy, which it never fails
te display, proposes that the party here
make a "bold battle for the elevation of
the civil service of the nation as clearly
foreshadowed by President Cleveland."
As te the lack of definiteness among the
Democratic newspapers in foreshadowing
the piobable candidate of their party con
vention or the paucity of candidates push
ing themselves for nomination, we regard
this as a hopeful sign. It does net
prove indifference among the masses
of the party nor fear of the- result
"''te.Uie part of these who might be tempted
te venture upon the chances of the pend
ing campaign. Nothing could be better
for the Democracy than te meet in conven
tion without being directed by any domi
nation te the choice of a candidate,
and(tlien te let the nomination go in search
of and find a worthy man. The oilice seek
ers are net always the best candidates.
Ner is there any great dilllculty finding
issues upon which te fight the battle. The
enforcement of the previsions of the new
constitution regulating corporations is ene
thaf the Intelligencer has suggested,
and for which the convention will declare
without a doubt. An honest, busl-
10 and lawful administration of the
e.easury is another. Honest, fair
institutional apportionment is a
cuvlut the best issue will be in the
AJl of the characters nnd records of
the candidates. Mr. Quay, as the Times
puts it, stands for the spoils system, for
the nbuse of public olllce for private gain
.jandparty.ajivantauer- "Tim Demecratlc-
canuiuate must De ene wne believes with
Mr. Cleveland, that public olllce is a pub
lic trust. Such a nomination will be the
highest compliment te the Democratic fed
eral administiatieu ; for such n nominee
a campaign can be waged en the highest
plane, and the election of such a candi
date will 1h) the best endorsement nnd vin
dication of Mr. Cleveland's policy, who Is
trying te carry out the platform upon
which he was elected; which, by tlie
way, is geed enough for the Democracy of
Pennsylvania.
The Public Charities.
The fact that individual local subsciip subsciip
tiens have ceme te the relief of tlie so se
.called private charities which were cut off
from state nld by Gov. Pattison's vetoes,
is a very forceful commentary en tlie grant
of state aid te these institutions.
It Is a generallysoumlprinciple of iepub
lican government, that what can better or
as wcll.be done by private individuals or
the local community should net be doneby
the state ; nnd the most alarming tendency
of our institutions is the increasing dis
position of the peeple te try te shift upon
the government their own responsibilities.
In this matter of charities In our state
we believe net only the proper functions of
the commonwealth liave been perverted,
but the principle of charity has been gross-

Thcre Is for nil such institutions ns uie
founded by private benencence but ene
safe rule, that is they should cither be
wholly under stnle control or entirely free
from it. Tlie mixed system of divided re
spensibility nnd precarious support Is net a
geed one. There cannot be judicious nnd

In ene case of a leading institution
called a " state" hospital, though the com
monwealth practically pays nil the ex
penses, it has the power te name only onc enc
slxtcenth of the management. Such a
system ought te be tern up by the roots!
New it turns out (hat the private chari
ties which it was alleged wqulil be starved
out and frozen out if denied state aid are
all pulling through. It Is true that these
who have ceme te their relief may net
want te de se every ycar. In that case let
them hand them ever te the state. "Who

Sam Jenes, the Southern ovangellst, who
has been exciting a great deal of emotional
rollgien In GeerRla and Tennosseo, is fend
of slang, with which liisdiscoursesaro highly
seasoned. He was recently taken te task for
It wheu he said : "I me slang Bometlmos.
Its about the Btrougest kind of language we
have. I can accomplish souiethlng with It
when I can't fiwe a man with the old style of

'decay,' and he wpn't notlce It ; but 1 can
chop his head oil' with 'rotten.' I have al

nbeut sonie of thoexprosslonsl use, butl bee
no geed in shanglng them when they tell
what I mean. I seldom use any but a scrip
tural word, howevcr." It is passing strange
Uiat Itev. Jenes should classify that geed
old strong Anglo-Saxen word "rotten" ns
slant;. It is tlie ment forclhle as well as the
purest kind of English. What Itev. Jenes

be regarded as Bound, if Kngllsli statistics of

I'esrMASTrm Veazev, of Baltimore, has,
in his brief efllclal career, been made cogni
zant of seme gross violations of the rules of

ity from Washington te appoint flve addi

for tour names of theso standing highest In
grade upon the list of ellglblcs. Among the
four ene was a lotter-carrler under Postmas
ter Tyler and was discharged for drunken
ness, having been found In a beastly Intox
icated condition in a barroom with his mall
bag under his feet. This man, having been
thus discharged, afterwards applied for ex
amination under tlie first civil scrvlce exam exam
Inatien, Dut failed. The law expressly pro
vides that, "no poraen dismissed from tlie
public sorvice for misconduct shall be admit
ted te oxnmlnatlen within two years there
after," and yet tills man, who had been re
meved in August, 1832, was exatnincd In
May, ISSi. The law also provides that
"no person having failed upon any examina
tion shall within six months thereafter be
admitted te another examination without
the consent of the commission." Accord
ingly, this man, who had been dismissed
from the sorvice, and who had, thorefero,
been improperly examined within two years
thereafter, having failed in May, ISSr, ob
tained special permission te appear again at
the next examination in August of the name

At this secend examination, in 1831, he

"Tlie last tiine I had noted the plnnet with

"I felt chilly ns this last rollectlen cressed
my mind, partly at thought of the corenor,
partly at the Idea of Mary being unwillingly
compelled te wear mourning for me, in case
of such a disclosure of Viur engagement.
U is a provoking thing for n girl of nlntcen
te have te go Inte mourning for a deceased
lever at the hegiuing or her second winter In
the metropolis.
"The water, though, with my motionless
position, must have had something te de
with my chilliness. I see, sir, you think
that I tell my story with greai levlty ; but,
Indced, 1 should grew del'ri.,us did I von ven von
ture te held steadlly te the awfulness of my
feelings the greater part of that night I
think I must have been most of the time
hysterical with horror, for the vibrating
emotions I hue recapitulated did pass
through my brain, even as 1 have detailed
them.
" Hut as I new became calm in thought, 1
summoned up again some resolution of ac
tion. "I will begin at the cerner, thought 1. and
sivim around the whole enclosure. I will
swim slowly, and again fuel the sides et the
tank with my feet. If die 1 must, I will per
ish at least from well-directed though ex
hausting ell'ert net sink from mere bootless
weariness in sustaining myself till the morn
ing sunn uriug renet.
"Tlie sides of the place seemed te grew
higher as 1 new kept iny watery course bo be
neath thorn. It was net altogether a dead
pull. I had seme variety of emotion in
making my circuit. When I swam in the
shadow it looked te me mere cheerful be
yond in the moonlight. When I swam In
the moonlight I had the liope of making
some discevery when I should again reach
the shadow. I turned several times en my
back te rest Just whero these wavy lines
would meet. The stars looked viciously
bright te me from the bottom ef.that well,
thore was such a company of tliem, they
were se glad In their lustrous rovelry, and
they had such spac6 te meve in ! I was alone,
sad te despair, inn strange element, prisened,
and a solitary gazer upon their mocking
chorus. And yet there was nothing olse
with which I could held communion i
" I turned upon my breast and
struck out almost frantically ence
mere. The stars wero forgotten,
the moon, the very world of which I as yet
formed a part, my peer Mary herself, was
forgetton. I thought only of the strong man
there perishing j of me in my lusty manhood
in tlie sharp vigor of my dawning prliiu,
with faculties Illimitable, with senses all
alert, battling thcre with physical obstacles
which men llke myself hail brought together
for my undoing. The Eternal could never
have willed this thing! I could net and I
would net perish thus. And I grew strong
in insolencoof self-trust, nnd laughed aloud
as I dashed the sluggish water from side te
Hide.
"Then came an emotion of pity for myself
ei wiiu regrei; ei Berrow, en, miinite, ler
a fate be desolate, a deem se dreary, be
heart-sickenlug! Yeu may laugh at the
contradiction if you will, sir, but I felt
that I could sacrillce my own llfe en the in
stant, te redeem anether follew-creaturo from
such a place of horrer.from an end se piteous.
My soul and my vital spirit seemed in that
desporate moment te be separating whlie
ene in parting giieved ever the doplerablo
fate of the ethor.
"And then I prayed I I prayed, why or
whoreforo I knew net. It was net irem fear.
It could net have been in hepe. Tlie days of
miracles are passed, and thore was no natural
law by whose providential interposition I
could be saved. I did net pray ; It prayed
of itself my soul which was within ine.
"Was the calmness that I new lelt tor

exhaustion, must ut last add a bubble te the
wave as he sull'ocates beueath the element
which new denied his mastery ? If we wero
se, hew fertunate was it that my floating red
at that moment attracted my attention as It
dashed through the water by me. I saw
en the Instant that a fish had entauged him
self In the wire noeso. Tlie red qulvercd,
plunged, ciime again te the surface, mid rip
pled ihe water as It shot In arrewy lllght
Irem slde te Blde of tlie tank. At last, driven
towards the southeast cerner of the roservoir,
the small end seemed te have get foul some seme some
whero. The brazen butt, which, every tlme
the llsh sounded, was thrown up te the
moon, new sank by its own weight, showing
that the ethor end must be fast. Hut the
cornerod llsh, evidently anchered somewhero
by that short wire, lloundered soveral times
te the surface befere I thought of striking
out te the spot.
" The water Is low new and telerably clear.
Yeu may see the very ledge there, Blr, in
yonder cerner, en which the small end of
my red rested when I socured that pike with
my hands. I did net take him from the slln slln slln
noeso, however, biitstandiuguponthe ledge,
handled the red In a workmanlike inuuuer,
ns I Hung ihat pound plckerel evor
tlie iron railing upon the top of the
parapet. The red, as I have told you, barely
readied from tlie railing te the water. It was
n heavy, strong bass red, and when I discov
ered that the lisli at tlie end of the wire made
it strong enough knot te proveut me from
drawing my tackle away from the railing
around which it twiued Itself as I
threw ; why. as you can at ence bee, 1 had
but little dilllculty In making my way
up Uie face or the wall with such assistance.
The latter which attracted your notlce is, ns
you see, lashed te the iron railing in the
identical Bitet where I thus made my escape,
and, for 1'car et similar accidenls, they have
