Towards.' Thurstay, Dec. 14, 1.871.
A few weeks since we called atten
tion to `the habit of many, 'business
men staying away from the polls on
election day, and pointed out some
of the; evils resulting from such a
course! The gigantic and unprece
nented frauds committed in New
York ',city, are the natural results
of surrendering the ballot to dis
honest and corrupt men. No man
who enjoys the protection 'of our
government has a right to remain at
home on' election day, or fold his
arms and "hold himself above voting.
HENRY Warn Bum= in a recent lec
ture, dealt - some heavy blows to this
class.
,
It is a shame, he said, that'men
who have gathered their whole wealth
under the protection of- the law of
the State should neglect the ballet
box. The man who stays tiway from
the polls is a NIA citizen, and the
higher he is the worse he' is. Speak
ing of the primary 1:11/eetings; Mr.
..BEEcuza had similar remarks for the
eminently iespctable people who are
afraid to mil with the dirt of tho cau
cus. They themselves are responsi
ble for the dirt in the caucus. If they
wo. d have men-at the bottom of so
ciety bright, they must rub them
bright with their own coats.
Mir The Demo Cretin party has for
years professed to be par excellence":
the-- working man's friend, and' has
managed to secure the support of
'a large proportion-pf the foreign ele.
went which yearly seeks a home in
this country. Fearing that they
could iao longer deceive this class,
the leaders of the democratic party
have encouraged the formation of a.
Labor Reform Party, hoping thereby
to again foist "themselves int') power,
but the intellig+t thinking men of
the laboring classes are gradually
but surely beginning to dicover and
act on the fact, that in - the Republican
party can r they alone find that relief
1 for which they are struggling in for
lorn - third-party 'movements. It is
cruel to entice thel into political
forays which only endanger their
own prospects of ultimate - success.
Senator - Wilson, now teaches the
same fact, in public speeches which
are irresietable, and it would'be well
for workingmenif they listened to
the advice of a publicist who has
risen from their own ranks to distinc
tion. Lili . or and morality, business
and finance, in all their various inter
ests, can only be harmoniously bene
fited by the complete success of the
Republican party.

stir In accordance 'with the law
creating the sinking fund, Governor
Geary has just issued a proclamation
reciting the amount received under
the act, the amount' of interest paid,
and the amount of the debt. of the
Commonwealth redeemed and 'held
tiy the commissioners. From this it
appears that the debt has been re
duced, in the year ending November
30, 4871, $2,113,228,63, and that
overdue the loans of the State have
been reduced to the extent of eigh
teen thousand dollars more, the two
amounts constituting the total reduc
tion of the debt.` Unfortunately there
is nothing in the r proclamation con
cerning the exact s amount of the in-,
debtedness of the Commonwealth,
which, for the. information of our
readers, we will state is in _round
numbers about $29,000,000 or almost
one-half less than that of the city of
Philadelphia. The Commissioners
of the Sinking Fnnd, who are to

of our finances, are State Treasurer,

HARD CIDER.—One of the "hard
cider" cases from Medie was tried in
the Delaware country court last week.
the charter of Media, granted some
twenty years ago, positively forbids
the sale of - intoxicating drinks within
the borough limits. Dennis Leach, a
store keeper was charged with having
retailed to customers cider so "hard"
that it made.some of them tipsy. A
good deal of conflicting testimony, as
to the effects of the cider was present
ed, but the fact of the sale was not
denied. - *Judge Butler, in charging
the jury, said the only question in
volved was whether the cider sold
was intoxicating.or not in its effects.
If it was sweet cider "—the unfer
mented and pure juice of apples—the
defendant was not guilty. But if it
was "hard, "or intoxicating, its sale
was a violation of law, and it a
forbidden drink. A verdict of guilty
was rendered by the jury. There
were several other cases of the kind
on hand, all of which will be governed
by the same ruling.

DM.Ex-Senator Wade, who for . his
long political career and his intimate
acquaintance with the people of the
West, if; certainly to be supposed to
know wherefore he speaks, states that
the popular impression which p royails
in the Eastern States relative to the
opposition of the agricultural classes
of the West to the system of protective
tariffs, is erroneous. He affirms that
whenever in the West the Re
publican party has placed itself
squarely in favor of the tariff, it has
'always received the heaviest majori
ties.

THE DMMOCRATIC DISGRACE.
The New York Evening Post, in an
article on the frauds in that city, says;
"It is a huMiliation for an entire com
munity to be engaged in warfare waif
such men, but it is a humiliation that
must - be borne. The very fact that the
contest is between the honest men. of
society and the roguers—between our
professional men, our merchants, our
tradesmen, our hard-working me
chanics and a few party leaders, sus
tained by the sweepings of the pot

humiliating and painful as it is,

Itel„. The _ Washington correspon
dent of the New York Herald in re
ferring to The discussion by the
House of Representatives of the ap
portionment bill, speaks as follows of
our member. Judge IMEacrn occu
pies a position in the House second
to no other member from this State:
into House having resolved itself
into Committee of the Whole, Mr.
BgRTON C. C is o - OE'S Apportionment bill
was considered. This- provides for
281 members in the next House, the
additional unit being a design to give
Illinois a representative fora fraction
somewhat less than one-half of the
basis'. of representation. Under it
Vermont and New Hampshire will
lose one member each.. A table pre
pared by the. Census Bureau, giving
the basis for,, apportionments on 250,
260, 270,280, 290 and 300 members,
was distributed to the members. Mr.
3lsr.ora, of Pennsylvania, to whom
as a sub-committee of the Judiciary
Committee the matter had been re
ferred in the last Congress, and who
has reported a bill, moved to substi
tute that report for the bill now be
fore the committee. Mr. MEncur.:s
bill proposes to make' the next House
consist of 280 membert. This would
be upon the basis of 137,900 for each
Representative, and would make the
whole number about two. hundred
and seventy-six—the additional four
members being allowed to States
having large fractions. The two
New England States named would
still loose one member each. It was
evident that the Pennsylvania Rep
_r_Emkntative had mastered his subject,
and at once the House was clustered
around and about hiS seat. Though
nett a brilliant man ;Judge MEsoura
made figures attractive and handled
his theme with great 'grace and ease.
Mr. FINSLENBURGH 'of Missouri, was
very anxious to knoW why and how
it was the large fract i ion of his State
ovef the basis on which twelve mem
bers were given was not recognized
by an additional member. Almost
the entire Missouri and Illinois dele
gations with a stray Vermonter were
on their feet eager! to badger Mr.
Mxucrn with questions as to how he
arrived at his concluitions. It - was a
treat to witness his 'perfect compos
ure and the facile ease with which he
.managed Fnixstrornim, FARNSWORTH
WILIARD and others who interposed
interlocutory objeetioni. - The gener
al _ impessioit seemed to be that he
made all his Toil:ail' and clinched
them. After short speeches-by FARM
worm and GARFTELDI the committee
rose and reported progress.

It was a multitude ocibiposed of no one, par

the gentleman of wealth and leisure down to
the most Impecunious idler of the street; from

In the reorganization of the committees, we
are pleased to observe that Judge Minces,
while retaining his old posibton on tie Judicia
ry, has been called to tho responsible position
of chairman of - the committee on Private Land
Claims, one of the most important committees
of the House. While this action upon the part
of the Speaker will be exceedingly gratifying
to his many triads both in and out of Congress,
it must at the same time be regarded not only
in the light of a tribute of respect, but an an
knowledgement of his integrity and ability in
the management of public affairs. From his
well known legal acquirements and experience,
close application and earnest attention to the
various legfidativeinterests of the -country, no
fitter selection could hive been made.
Judge Mcacra:during his term of service,
has thus far earned for himself an enviable rep

in the advocacy of just and wise measures,
faithful in the support of those great principles
which secure "equal and exact justice to all
men"; closely Identified with that policy which
has firmly established our national credfHind
given prosperity to the whole country—true to
his convictions of right, and meeting all issued
openly and firmly, he has attained a position of
influence that has become known and felt in no
small degree,
The peopje of the Thirteenth district have

their utmost-confidence, ably sustaining the
Administration in its honest,- plain work of pay

for the peace and good of the whole people,
they may with Justifiable pride point to Judge
Natters as " the right man in the right place."
Senator Scow, in his forthcoming report to
Congress on the disturbancese existing at the
South, will reveal to the public state of affairs
far more deplorable and horrifying' th'an has
yet been told. In thii report, which has occu
pied nearly the whole of the Senator's time,
since the adjournment of Congress, and to
which he has given careful and earnest atten
tion, most conclusive proofs will. be found of
the dastardly and unprovoked crapes and era
elites perpetrated upon Union and law-abiding
citizens by these organized bands of disguised
rebels. The most convincing evidence will be
given-of atrocities committed of a .character
such as we have been taught to believe could
exist only` in ,the breasts of savages, and in
,lands unknown to civilitiation.
The attempted 41enial by Democratic le.iders
l ip the South and throughout the country of the
existence of this organization, especially as a
political body, is now' completely exploded by,
the investigations of this committee.' That the
Ku-Klux-Elan does exist no fact is more clearly,
proven; and so mighty has this baleful organi
zation bdcomc, it is in evidence that the civil
authorities and the citizens are completely sub
jugated and made to do their lightest bidding.

the most damning testimony has been record

Senator Ruth, who once "carried a sword
"under the linion," in Lis crotia-ewnination
eierted himself to - his utmost to shield his par
ty from all blame or evidence of participation.
Yet Lis efforts were entirely futile ; for the very
leaders of the Etti Klux themselves testify that
the order was organized by the Democrats to
the interest of tb Democratic party, and for
no other purpose. They have met and confek
red with them as equals in council, profited by
their actsof Violence, and, by their votes be
come Judges, Senators and Representatives in
Congress. The testimony covers thousands of
pages, and is full, convincing and complete. It
is an entire answer to those who prate about a
"ruiLtar/ despotism," and pretend to disbelieve
the revolting
.tales of horror committed by
these disappointed; vindictive and unrepentant
rebels who, still defiant and disobedient to the
law; 'Still fostering and muttering sentiments
of stifled treason and rebellion, are spreading
terror and desolation over :be entire land.
Congress, as customary, will adjourn over
the holidays; %rid, as usual, until they are past,
but little if any attempt will made at legisla
tion. Although this will be what is generally
termed the long session, yet many are predict
ing that it will be bat *abort one. Why or up rn
what grounds these assertions are made, we
are unable to discern. There are, it is said,
nearly a thouinind bills on the-calendars of the
House and Senile to be dispoced of, which cer
tainly will require time and a great amount of
wort, all ot"them being of less or more import
ance to thWinteresta and welfare of the coun
try, In addition to these there will doubtless
be new ones introduced on the recommenda
tion of the President, besides those naturally
arising in the course of legislation, and upon
all of which action will have to be taken. Few
sessions of Congress have had more important
measures before them for settlement ; and still
fewer have been more interesting than the ap
proaching session prothises to be. There is
every reason to believe that the session must
necessarily be prolonged into one of very con
siderable length.
_ Signs of- - the approaching holidays already
begin to show themselves. November closed
with Thanksgiving, and the long array of fancy
goods establishments on the Averruck . and else
wherewith their tempting display of beautiful
and costly wares, indicate that Christmas and
the New Fear is again near at hand. In the
events of the past year, the country has many
things to he thankful for, and not a few to
mourn over. But while it is thepart of wisdom to
submit with grace to the inevitable in the past,
to try and make amends in the future, it will
at least during the season of gifts and good
will offerings, be deemed better to be merry
than otherwise.

those who had so fondly hoped to gaze upon
his royal mug. Owing, it is said. to the un
friendly relations of Madame CLTLCAZT with
certain of the upper tendom of Washington,
their expectation of a grand ball,- with a suc
cession of still grander levees, was disonied to
disappointment, and they were'pared the
scramble after 1 cards of invitatioh, with the
rush, jam andKgeneral ." cussedness* incident
to all such occasions. Madame CAUCA= has
had her revenge; and, those who so eagerly an
ticipated the event, with visions of the "Dook"
whirling in the giddy fascinations of the waltz
or german, mast be content with the cold amn
ion of reading the accounts of the parades and
fetes that reach them from other and more fa
vored cities. Thus fades into the land of
drifams all our hopes and expectations. Will
.rictt-lisme one send us along a Japanesx Tama
or somebody else, over whom we can let down
our excitement.

—A lunatic or knave named Flint
has etablished a spiritualistic post-office in New
York. Letters from lunatics in the flesh direct
ed to spirits in heaven or hell, u-the case may
be, are forwarded to Mr. Flint's post-office in
New York, and he sends them by eipresa to
their destination, and receives,the snorer. The
postage is,rather binding, being two dollars per
letter; but it must be remembered that the de
partment is new, and expenses heavy. By and
by . a movement will probably be 'made in the
direction of cheaper postage, as •the facilities
for inter-communication between the celestial,
infernal. and terestial kingdoms are increased.
—The Albany Journal,in comment
ing editoriallylon the Republican outlook, says:
"Not for thirty years has any administration
at its intermediate stage so- much strength as
was evinced by President Grant's administra
tion and the Republican party last year. But
the unparalled success of the second year, have
been eclipsed by the matchless victories of the
third. The opposition ip completely overwhelm
ed. It is utterly disorganized and confounded.
Ono part propcises to pass the presidential elec.

poises to nominate a distinctive Republican.
Still -another proposes a straight Democrat
merely to preserve the - name. All admit the
hopelesniess of any contest. To every appear
ance the Republican party has i a clear field."
The Recent Tragedk fa Havana—girl..
irate Letter front a Student.
The following is an extract from
the letter of a medical student in Ha
vana to his friends in New York, in
regard to the desecration of .Castan
ou's tomb:
- HAVANA, December if; 1871
You will have learited with horror,
before this, of the massacre of my fel
low students.. I would like to give
you full details, so that you may un
derstand it. You know we hear
lectures on anatomy in the Hall of
St. Dionysins, 'adjoining the ceme
tery. On that fatal Thursday the
students of the first-class went into
the cemetery to gather specimens•
Some of them broke the glass that
covers the niche of Castanon's tomb,
and some plants were destroyed over
the grave of Guzmanel Bnene. This
was all that was done. The volun
teers say they took out, the remaixis
and spat in the face of the corpse.
This is utterly false; nor is there the
least proof that any verses were post
ed on the graves. It was a foolish
escapade. At first only four of my
poor comrades were sentenced, but
this did not suffice the blood-thirsty
mob, and accordingly four more had
to be sacrificed. Those fortunate
enough to escape death are now at
work with thZ3 common felons outside
the walls in the stone quarries. Un
accustomed to such terrible labor,
perhaps half of them will die, I can
not express to you the grief in the
city. Even the Spaniards are aghast
at this brutal cruelty. The _college
must close, because the students have
all left it. One single , student, poor
boy, shed a few tears; the others died
without a murmur. , -

ST. touts, Dec 12.--Information
has been received here of a terrible
affair in Salina county, Nebraska,
Which occurred during the recent
intensely cold weather. A party of
emigrants with their families, were
passing through the country west
ward,when the cold instantly increas
ing, they concluded • to Camp and
light a fire. They were on a piece of
high prairie, `several - miles from any
house, but three • miles from a piece
of timber land.
After unhitching their teams the
men started for this timber to pro
cure fuel. Not returning for several
hours, the women left their children
and started to hunt them. This is
all that is known, acept that the
bodies of seventeen persons, who
perished from intense cold, were
found. The children wbo were left
in the wagons were the only survivors
of the party.
ter The Cincinnati Enquirer's
Washington dispatch says that the
Democratic 'ffiembers of Congress
want to know how many and what
Republicans of influence are prepar . -
ed to step out against Grint, and
will refuse to support him in any
event, before further steps towards
"coalition are taken to unite the
Democratic party with such an ele
ment." Therefore, the Democratic
caucus will . be called this week, in
order that Democratic members,when
they go home during the ;holiday re
cess, may inform their constituents
precisely where the., party stands:
All of which is exceedingly amusing.
The Democracy 'is evidently in a
hopeless condition.
