THE; REPORTER FOR 1870. .
As -the -intbseriptions -- of - •
thousands of our subseribers expire
within a few week's, we call attention-
to the fact thatiboymay
*relater 'Ol Papers will ici--disCoil-
tinned at the expiration , of the ,time
pa for. This arrangement -is be-
lieved to be jest for' all:concerned.
The price,—two dolars per annum—
is a entail item to the individual sub
scribers, and can be paid as easily
one time as anOther..
The EXPORTER in point of appear
ance challenges comparison with any
journal in the State. It will contin
ue to advocate the doctrines which
it has always upheld. Its past histo
ry is a sufficient indication of what
its future course will be. Having
thus far assisted in' overthrowing
wrong, oppression, and wickedness in
every form; standing by the Govern
ment in the dark days of rebellion, it
shall still be found earnespy laboring
to secure the fruits of the glorious
victory, by which this country was
restored to peace and quiet. It will
be our aim to make the REPORTER an
instructive and entertaining family
newspaper, faithfully, recording the
current news of the day, bofh gener
al and local, and especially devoted
to the interests of this community.
Its influence will always be exerted
in favor of right, justice, reform and
economy. It will not fail to criticisT
when criticism is deserved; to con-
demn what, is wrong or amiss; or
to boldly declare the truth, whatever
may be the result, untrammeled by
the views of any individual or com
bination.
We propose to give a still wider
dissemination of what we believe to
be correct principles and doctrines,
by an increased circulation of the
:REPORTER, and to this end ask the
assistance and co-operation of the
friends of the cause throughout the
county, who by klittle effort can add
very materially to its present sub
scription list. As an inducement to
subscribers, we propose to furnish the
paper thirteen months for two dollars.
Any person sending us that amount
will receive the REPORTER lor the re
mainder of this year and all of next
—thus obtaining the paper one
month for nothing.
CLms.—We will furnish the RE-
Porrmin clubs of ten or more at
$1,50 per annum, and an extra copy
to the getter up of the club.
Clubs are uow forming at nearly
every Post Office in the County. It
will be bat a little trouble for every
subscriber to procure one new name
for a club. There are now eight
thousand Republican voters in the
county,'not more than one half of
whom,are taking the REPORTER. By
a little effort on the part of our
friends In be placed in nearly ev
ery household in Bradford county.
PREMIUM.—We have made arrange
ments with the publisheis of the
American Stock journal by which we
are enabled to offer this valuable ag
riCultural monthly as a Premium to
every subscribet•to the REPORTER, who
pays the regular subscription price
($2) before Ahe Ist of March rnext.
This offer is to all, whether old or
new subscribers. The subscription
price of the Journal is ono dollar per
annum, so that we are really giving.
every person who shall renew his
subscription, or:subscribe to the Rz-
PORTER - for the next thrt , ..i months,
ONE DOLLAR
,0® `The announcement is made in
the Tipga County Agitator. that that
paper will appear about the first ,of
January nest, under the control of
a new firm. Rumor says that M. H.
Cosa, the .editor, will go to Philadel
phia, to become associaf et; with the
Day, a new penny paper recently
started there. •
Whilst we trust that Mr..COBB will
find in his new post awider'field and
a higher"sphere of action, upon which
to continue the labors of the last few
years, yet we part with him with un
feigned regret. The cause of m.ortil
ity, of temperance, of politics'_ hon
•sty has no more able and conh:=ter.t
advocate. He-iimi unselfishly and
bravely fought the battle of the right
against wrong, winning for himself
the plaudits of all g,opil men.. No
more conscientious, ur: _gilt, publici
journalist exists. He leis for years
given his best thoughts a _A his most
arduouti labors tuistiftiingly and un
rewarded for the promotion of sound
principles.
The Republicans of Tioga, espec
ially, owe Mr. ,COlll3 a debt of grati
tude which we trust, is at least felt,
if it can never be paid. And we hope
that in all his future relitions, he
may meet with greater success than
usually falls to the lot of public jour
nalists.

a Conundrum, but. it is a question .
which just now is receiving consider

it isn't Those in the 'affirmative pat
forth extended arguments to prove
their opinieris-correct—whilst ,the
negative produce equally cogent:rea
sons to prove their side of the ques
tion. If any Sian desires to qualify
himself us a fit subject for a lunatic
asylurp, he can
.do so in a reasona
bly. short time, by reading
the
en
deavoring to comprehend the argu
ments of those who write and send
forth pamphlet's upon finance, filled
with the extremely fine-spun and
complicated theories of - those who
imagine they have a panacea for all
the financial difficulties of - the coun
-1 try. In fact we consider the issuing
of a pamphlet developing & fiutuacial
theory, as sufficient cause for sub
jecting the author to an inquiry into
his mental condition.
- That a return to specie payments
is desirable, net one contradicts. A
specie basis is the proper and Jegiti
mate foundation for all commercial
transactions. But that if is inseper
able to commercial and national pros
perity we deny. The suspension of
specie payments during the late re
bellion was a national necessity. The
:war could not have been carried on
without such a course. The expan
sion which took place was the cause
of that suspension, enhancing the
' valuei(3', the country, and. inflating
the currency. Yet, under these , en
hanced values and inflated currency,
the material interests of the country
have prospered. Wealth has accu
mulated at a ratio hitherto iinkr.own.
Industrial [pursuits' have been
strengthened, and ma.nufactutes es
tablished. The first use made of our
new wealth was to-pay .the debts of
those who were embarrassed before
I the war. Judgments were satisfied,
and mortgages cancelled. It is true,
that with the expansion, in time came
reckless extravagance, and many
debts have been contracted. The
i ability to pay however, is much
- greater now, than when the suspen
sion of specie payments took place.
It is agreed by all that an immedi-
I ate return to specie payments would
'produce great distress. We see no
'necessity for preeipitating disaster,
so long as the currency is adjusting
itself, by the operation of -those)aws.
which will speedily bring, about
_the
desired result,. •The tendency of ev
erything is to shrink to the specie
standard,' and though the shrinkage
may be unequal, yet much loss mis
chief will be done, by leaving it the
quiet operation of the laws which
govern trade, than by-attempting by
legislative enactments to enforce a
return to a specie basis. Gold has
already sunk to 121, and its tenden—
cy is certainly and steadily down
ward, Commercial prices must keep
pace with gold, and labor itself feel
the reduction, though labor is always
the last to come down to the common
standard.
It has been asserted, on pretended
official authority that Secretary tOUT
wELL was in:favor of a speedy return
to specie payments, and would even
go so far as to recommend, in his .
next annual report to Congress
of a certain time at which such
resumption should commence.. But
the Secretary's views have been
announced on the highest and most
unquestionable authority to be exact
ly the contrary. Not only does the
Secretary of the Treasury not favor
the immediate .. resumption of specie
payments, but in his report ho - will
deprecate any attempt on the part
of Congress to force such a policy
upon the country.
The Secretary holds that ,the re
sumption of specie payments before
the business interests of the country
were fully - prepared for it, would
cause - a greater derangement than we
have yet been • afflicted with. The
finanancial condition.of the country
is bad enough as it is; and, although
it is steadily improving, any attempt
to forestall the natural course of
events by mischievous special legisla
tion would, throw everything into
confusion, bring shout a relapse
the late extreme depression in all
classes of business, and result solely
in still further postponing' the day
when a concerted" and systematic at
tempt at resumption could be under
taken with a prospect of success,
The Secretary believes that the
first requisite to a practicable resump
lien is a restoration of business ic
tivity throughout the country; which
will react upon the credit of the Gov-'
ernment, and cause - its promises -to
be accepted for their full face. The
cause of the premium npon'..-gold is
found, not in the fact that specie is
worthintrinsically more at the pres
ent time than it was ten years ago,
but in the fact that the credit of the
Government is belOw par; and its pa
per not worth, in the markets of. the
world, as much as it Claims to be.
With n general resumption of busi
ness activity would come a strength
ening of both private and public cred
it, an increase in values, and the res
toration of a healthy feeling which
would pat - ri - the way for a practical
restunption , of syecie payments, to
insure which no legialatiqn whatever
would be necessary. -

vided. _ ,
The provisoes of this bill are cer
tainly stringent enough, but we have
not the slightest confidence that all
its penalties will avail to.. diminish:
the evil of office-seeking, nor relieve
members, of Congress froth' importu
nity. .That some such enactment is
necessary, \ shows to how great and
alarming an extent office is sought,
and the labor and inconvenience to
which it pats members of Congress.
We _have no doubt brit that Senators
and Representative would hasten to
enact some such law - if they felt it
would relieve them from the impor
tunity of those seeking places under
the Government,
The inauguration of Gen. Giiii;er,
as President, witnessed an irruption'
of office-seekers at Washington, such
_as was never before experienced, and
brought down upon the unfortunate
members of Congress such a season
of perplexity and trouble, 'as made
most of them heartily sick of the .po
sitions they occupied. Mere than
one weak-hearted Congressman, over
come by the pressure, fled in dismay
from the Ciipital. No district, how
ever remote from Washington, .littt
supplied its quota to the host. They
filled the hotels, they swarmed in the
lobbies, they haunted the Depart
ments and they infested the rooms
of the members. ' Each one came pro
vided with a huge roll of testimonials,
from prominent personages, and each
one supposed'he had peculiar claims
upOn the personal influence of "my
I member, you know." It is needless
to say that the rejected vastly , out
numbered the lucky, and the army
in Flanders could have taken lessons
in profanity fitm the impecunious
and departing die-appointees. In
fact a certain train from Washing
ton, came to be called the "swearing
train." Welelieve there are but few
members who, passed tlirono that
fearful occasion, who would seek a
re-election if certain the same exper.:
ience was to be undergone.
The plan adopted at Washington,
of . conceding or submitting the ap
pointment in each Congressional dis
trict to the member, provided he is
in sympathy with the Administration,
virtually makes the office the gift or
prerogative of the Congressman. We
do not see how this can be . avoided,
nor that any good would come of the
change. Neither the President, nor
the'heads of the Departments can be
expected to have personal knowledge
of the fitness of applicants for the
vast number of offices at their dispo
saL What course more proper or
natural than that they Should rely
upon the man whom the people have
chosen to represent them—and hold
him responsible for the honesty and
capability of the appointee?
All the evils resulting_to the Gov
ernment and all the inconvenience
and importunity to which members
are subjected, will continue so long.
as the present plan of appointing and
'removing officers is continued. Mr.
Tnumnut;t!s proposition might for a
time lessen the evil, but it ., would
soon become as general and crying
as ever. The only certain remedy is
some enactment in the nature of a
Civil Service Bill, which will remove
,office-seeking from the arena of party
po)itics, and make the duration of
office, dependent upon capacity and
•'good Conduct, and not upon the pro=
,nunciation of apolitical "shibboleth."
That this will eventually be done, we
Ido not question. •

FISH AT THE Sr. NICHOLAS HOTEL.—
Much excitement was occasioned
about half-past three o'clock on Fri
day afternoon by an alarm of fire at
the St. Nicholas HoteL It was catsed
by an explosion in the gas works,.and
was confined to the building in which
the apparatus was located. This
building also contained the laundry
and the stables belonging to the hotel,
all which were destroyed. The flames
did not spread to the hotel building,
which' ift separated from the laundry
and gas works. The damage will
probably reach $lOO,OOO. A : woman
employed, in the laundry wag badly
burned by the explosion of a as tank
during the fire.
ss..The rumor comes from Rome
that the cardinal's red hat is to be
offered to two American prelates.—
Archbishops MCCLOSKY and SPAIIL
DMG, respectively of New York and
Baltimore, are designated as the for
tunate recipients of the distinguished
honor. If the American bishops are
standing by. the Pope in solid phal
anx, as it commonly asserted, they
ought to have not two, but a dozen
of cardinalates.

A Dementia family broil occurred on the

the spectators in the galleries. Tho House be
ing in Committee of the whole,.on tho State of

House in relation to finance. Mr. Mungen bo
lag of the Pendletonian school of Democrats,'
proceeded to make an out and ont repudiation
speech; when a decided uneasiness begari to be

speakers in little knots, enjoying the "happy

close of Mr. Mnngen's speech, Gen. Garfield.
Representative of Ohio, rase and offered the fol
lowing resolution: •
"Resolved, that the PropositiOn, direct or in
direct, to repudiatn , any portion of the debt ot
the United States,' is unworthy of the honor
and good name of Abe - nation, and that this
Horse without distinction of party, sets the seal
of its condemnation upon any and all such prop
ositions."
This was ayes 133, nays 1,, (llrJones

the American people to the policy of repudis Von.
and assures tho payment in good faith of 'our

A just an- proper bill introduced by Judge
Mercur of your district, entitled, "A bill to dis
panso.with spies and informers in the. internal

"That all taws and parts of laws which give
to spies and informers any portion or share o f

ariiolation of the internal revenue biws, he and
the Same are hereby repealed." '
The provision sought to be repealed by this
bill, has proved to be a source of much mischief,
and its repeal is demanded by business men
generally, as they have learned by the experi- .
euee et the past year that they are liable to be
come unconsciously the victims of a despicable
set of men, who under the guise of detectives,
are ready to ruin any man's business and. repu

RESIGNATION OF ASSOOIATE
JUSTIOE GRIER. \
The 'resignation of 'Mr. Justice
Grier, to take effect on . the first of
Febrilary, 1870, will create a Vacancy
in the Supreme Court for the Third
circuit, composed of the States of
Penn'a, New Jersey and Delaware.
Judge Grier is a man of strong native
intellect, and of great legal ability,
who has rendered very important ser
vice to the country whilst a member
of the Supreme Judiciary of the Unit
ed States. He has held that office
for nearly a quarter of a century,
whichfivas preceeded by his filling a
high judicial appointment in his native
State.
When, Therefore, Judge Grier took
his seat upon the bench, of the Su
preme Court of the United States, he
had the advantage of a long judicial
experience which enabled him to • car
ry on the business of his circuit with
great efficiency and dipatch.-
• The Stateiof Pennsylvania, inlB6o,
had a population of nearly three mil
lions, and an area of 4G,000 square
miles, with very large commercial, agricultural, mining and manufactur
ing interests, with enormous deposits
of the most valuable of all minerals
—iron and coal. She has two Sena
tors and twenty-four members of
Congress, and is the second State, of
the Union. She has been steadfastly
attached to the preservation of the
National Government, and has been
uniformly opposed to secession and..
repudiation. , t.
The bar of Pennsylvania numbers
several thousand, and comprises many
able and eminent members. Mr.
Binney, now in his ninetieth year,
retired .many years ago, and Mr.
Meredith, wliihit still appearing in
our courts, uccasionally, has abanuon
ed the more active pursuits of the
profession. The Hon. William Strong
now occupies the fignt rank, and may,
be considered the leader of the prac-,
tieing bar of the State. He' was for
eleven years a judge of the" Supreme
Court of Pelinsylvania, and for ability,
clearness ofi conception and expres
sion, and 4onndness of judgement,
ranked with the ablest of as associ
ates. Judge Strong is well known
throughout the whole State, and is
eminently popular with the bar
_and
the community at large, and his ap
pointment to the vacancy occasioned
by the resignation of Judge Grier
would give entire satisfaction to the
people of Pennsylvania.'His judicial
experience would enable him to 1' 7t
to the discharge of the duties, of ..ds
high, office just that matured and
practiced intellect which it demands.

two large houses down with it and
choking the entrance to the mine.
There were several persons in the
dwelling houses at the time of the

How can any dealer retail =eh a zits compound to
