'THE LOCAL "OPTII,OII LAW DECIDED
TO DECONIfTITVTI.iIIAL.
In the Supreme Court of this
State, on, Monday last,-Judge AGNEW
delivered the opinion of the Court
'deciding the Local Option law to be
constittutional. Judges Wa.uhats
and Matas, concurring ; Judges
REM) and SaAssWOGD dissenting. The
case''Came ap on an appeal- to test
the, Constitutionality of the law.au
thorizing a vote in the twenty-sebond
ward. of Philadelphia, the decision
covers - aubstantiaUy the constitu
tionality of the law of last winter, by
%thine of which the people of this
county have already voted "ho li
cense," The decision has beim at -
ionsly looked for both by the friends'
and opponents of.license. The mat
ter being now - settled, a great re
sponsibility falls upon the temperi
ance people, which 'shim:ad - be care
fully exercised.
MINISEQUA.
. The new county bill came up in
the House last Thtirsday,'and after a
short discussion w* put over -until
to-day. DSr•. Mix made a• . telling
speech against the swindle, afi which
he handled 11F nie and his "roos
ters " without gloves. Mr. Dean
had,commenced his speech when the
House agreed'to make the question
the special-order for Wedtiesday eve.
-It is a matter of great surprise to
the uninitiated that the bill should
have any supporters while the Mem
bers 'from the counties to be affect
ed Unitedly oppose it. We opine
that Members who do vote for it will
have some trouble in convincing
their constituentq that they voted
conscientiously. Indeed, it is a mat
ter of common conversation in Har
risburg, that every. Member who
supports the bill has got. his " divy."
A. ptomincnt democratic Congress
man said to ‘ BccpAt,pw's Boy " the
other day, in talking about . the
lltlinnequa scheme, 7 What the d-4
-do you want-with money "
We have already quoted from sev
eral of the papers of the State arti
cles on the subject; and append
another article from the Beaver Rqd
icai, owned by Senator RuTAN :
lust now the , celebrated Peter
Herdic, of Willianispbrt, is engaging"
the attention of the Legislature and
the people generally. He has two
schemes on hand that occultly his
time, and the time of a nusaber of
other outsiders,lsent hereby the peo
ple, is taken rip in watching him.
One scheme is to make a new 'county
out of parts of Tinge, Bradford, LY
coining and Sullivan, with' county
seat at Miunequa, at the precise spot
owned by said Herdic, and known as
Herdic or Minnequa t Springs„ There
is no necessity 'for the county and no
one pretends' there is, but Herdic
wants it to enable him to realize a
fortune by selling his hundreds of
acres, now a wilderness. for town
lots. ,It is a big job, and he is try
ing to buy it through by liberal of
fers to.donate the profits to Members
who vote as he desires. Every . Sen
ator-and member from the counties
to be affected by this scheme are bit
terly hostile to it, and yet, strange
to say, it now looks as if the bill
would pass the House this week. If
it does,not it will simply be because
it is: knOwn, or at least generally be
lieved, that the Governor would not
sign it, and there will be no " clinks"
unless he does. Honest teen • might
and possibly may vote for this bill,
but it is safe to say they will be few
er in numbdr than righteous men in
Sodom in the days of Lot.
DEATH or Btsuor
private dis Patch received in 'Cincin
nati on Friday last announces the
death of Bishop CHARLES P. Mch
v.tiNE, at , i`lorence,'ltaly. • -
CHARLES P. MclnvanlE was bern at
Burlington, N. J., Jan. 18, 1708, and
graduated with high honors at
Princeton College in 1816. He
was admitted to deacon's orders in
July, 1820, and appointed, in 1825,
Professor of Ethics at West Point,
which 'position he resigned • two
years later on being chosen Rector
of St. Ann's Church, Brooklyn. In
1831 he was appointed Professor of
the Evidences of Revealed Religion
and Sacred Antiquities in the 'Uni
versity of the city of New York. He
was consecrated Bishop of the State
of Ohio in 1832, and holding that
position up to the day of his demise,
exercised great influence over the
Protestant Episcopal Church of
America. The degree of D. C. L
was conferred upon him by the Uni
versity of Oxford in 1853, and in
1658 that of LL. D. from the Uni
versity of Cambridge
WESTWARD. —We learn from official
reports that during 1872 over ten mil
lions seven hundred thousand acres
passed iron the dominion of the gov
ernment into private hands. This
would make nearly seventy thousand
farms of one hundred and sixty acres
each, : equivalent to three I States the
size. of Massachusets. In, Kansas
and Nebraska alone, over fifteen
thousand entries were made within
the year under the homestead law
These entries represent a. population
of fifty thousand added to these two
States on lands freely presented by
the t , government, besides a large
number who acquired their homes
by purchase.
In.:Conspicuous among the Penn
sylvania Members of Congress who
voted to put $5,000 extra into their
pockets, is that great virtuous and

The Harrisburg Representatives,
following the example of
,Congress,
last week, voted themselves five hun
dred dollars eitra pay for the pres
ent. session. They also increased the
salary of Law Judges $lOOO. Where,
is this thing to stop? While - , both'
in Congress and the State Legisla
tare, a majority of those Toting for
its increase were democrats, the re
publican party having a majority in
both branches, will be held responsi.
ble by the people, and it is the duty
of the t epablicatt press to cry ' ottt
against it. We hope that the Senate
may correct the evil. The' people de
mand that they shall.
His Vert,-e.—Themoney value of a
drunken husband to a wife has been
determined - in Mercer county at $l5O.
Under a special law in that county
liquor dealers are liable for the con
sequences resulting to their custo
mers from its sale. JANE VAX Drums
claimed to have been deprived of her
husband by the use of liquors pur
chased from certain parties, and sued
them for damages. The suit was re
ferred to arbitrators, and they award
ed her the sum named.
It is stated by a Republican
inurnal, whose condrictOr is a member
of Congress, that a conference is in
progress among a number of mem
bers who voted against the increase
of salary ,for uniform action in the
matter of declining to receive the
back salary voted, which without os
tentation, shall be manly and honor
able. The example of the Speaker
may aid in determining their course.

followed. by Gen. White in his best
armor. The General defended the
Old - Republican law air being ample
to keep - the election boards pure and
the voters honest. It was one of his ,
best efforts and seemed wellfortified,
carefully picketed, and - his conclii
sionEilmpregnable. Had it been the,
last speecch, or rather lad it not
been followed by a certain- other
•4peech, it would have won the high
est encomiums. Bat it was not so
decreed. Ott MCClure Opened his
batteries upon the works, first at
long range, and gradually advancing
tlt a more complete demolition of
White's defence could scarcely be
imagined. It was painful .to all of
us Republican to bare the sores of
the party thus expoied, and which
eve had scarcely thought existed. He
reviewed the birth, growth and
advancement of that party—at first
" a little cloud' not bigger than a
man's hand ; " challenged any thing
and every thing in the history of
party organisations to compare with
it in patriotism - and purity of pur
pose to the chise of., the war and
now challenged even the old- beta°
cratic p irty in its pahniest days to
exhibit such putrefying sores, such
abominations, as permeated the
whole political structure to-day. He
►then reviewed the'. , contests for the
past yeir, and the i.tiruense _majori
ties iu Philadelphia, city and else
,
I where, pilau the old registry, law,
showing most, conclusively that he
knew how it was himself. He con
tended that the history of that party
had been so completely interwoven
`and identified with the glorious
21.hierements of the war itnil the
highest good of the conntry, that it
pained him in the - heart of heArts, to
see it belittled, corrupted and dedi
cated to' the base uses of greedy, low
minded, pot-house politiCians. Its
continuance in that conrise of policy
seemed determined upon by those
• now assuming leadership. Hence the
day of its usnuluess was flossing
rapidly away, and ,we would soon be
called on to bury the dead carcass
out of our sight. •
I could not pretend to give even a
fiynopFiis of what he said. His lan
guage was carefully and fitly chosen,

NIL Thus far but eleven Senators
have drawn their back compensation.
After, deducting the mileage, it is
not so large a plum after all, avera
ging but - $3,61.9,74 to each Senator.
En a few cases it amounts to almost
nothing, and in one to less than
nothing literally. • For instancP,
Mr. ponirr, after deducting his
mileage, has but $130,40 - left. His
colleague Mr. KELLEY, who 40t Intl
.gage-for the first session, that imme
diately succeeding March 4, 1871,
does not - claim the extra compensa
tion, for the reason that .his mileage
amounts to $1492,80 more, than the
pay. The California Senators, after
deducting their mileage, gat but
$)70,40. Thus far there are believed
to be four Senators who will not draw
the extra pay. Those members Who
refuse it now =lit not forget that
ender existing law it will not be pos
Bible to do as ROBERT J. WALKER,
once did in the case of extra mileage
for a Special session of the Senate in
1845.—Unexpended balances are uow
covered into the Treasury at the end
of each' fiscal year, and cannot be,
drawn"upotv-'again without, a re ap
propriation. late Mr. WALKER,
in high dudgeon, refused bis extra
mileage at the time named, which
amounted to $2,160, he being at the
time a Senator from Mississippi.
Twenty three years afterwards, ,in
1868, when he had become poor in
purse and almost forgotten in the
memory of the people, he recollected
this sum, and called upon Mr. NIxoN,
the disbursing.- clerk of the Senate,
for it, who paid the same to him out
of the contingent fund of the Senate.
This curious fact is of record in the
ledger containing the compensation

It is rumored that the Philadel
phia and Reading railroad is about
to take hold of the Nancy Creek
railway. We are pleased to lean ,
this. The latter road 'now connect).
with the Catawissa extension at
Hall's Landing. and has been leased
by the Philadelphia and Reading
road, and it would certainly be of
great advantage to that company b.
have control of the Money Creek
nail; as it would make quite a feed
er, and would not cost a large amontit
of money to complete it to the Snlli
'van coal fields, where it wouldson.
'nect with the -Sullivan and Erie
road, now in active operation: no
Money Creek road would certainly
become a paying road when complet
ed, as there would be a vast amount
of coal transported over it, beside.
the great quantity of timber that ex
ists all along its line, and other
minerals. We trust, for the sake o'
Williamsport, that the rumor is cor
rect, and that the Nancy Creek mail
will be speedily completed. It would
bring ns Sullivan coal, which would
be desirable and useful, for main
purposes.— Gazette d Bulletin.

It is difficult for those who belong
to the younger generation of railroad
!nen to realisothat the whole - of our
peseta railroad eastern has been de
tilloPed ,slid perfected within less
than forty years.,- Bash, however, is
the WI,- end there( ere of course
many Men still living whb took 'an
actiie part in the first experiments
which were made, sad helped. to con
struct the first roach ,ttild their en
gines and cars. Withthe develop=
meat of such a. system there has, of
course, grown up gradually sultfroin
'the lief- ssities of the case, terms and
ditties to detrignate the appliances
opehitiOns and Methods eniployed in
the llittltifitrion* and comphcatcd,
business of constructing and work
ing such reads, and conducting their
traffic. Cons(lermg the niaguitudel
and, the importance,- both socially )
and economically, of this modern
system, it has been extremely barren
in literatuae, e43bially hi this noun-
try.
To ti very great extent, therefore,
no exact or common system of
menclatnre'exista, and each engineer,
superintendent, master nieehauic,
car-builder, or other officer or opera
tive hae adopted terms of his own,
as his inclination 'or • neeetisity led
him. These are goody bad or indit
ferent, as the ingenuity,. taste or
dullness "of the inventor or author
may have suggested.. Some are very
expressiq and I appropriate:, 'as, for
example, -" cow,catcher," and " jerk
water," the latter being. the name giv 7
en to the arrangement for takiog up
water into O tender while mulling.
Others are very absorb. We hive
heard, for instance, of a man order
ing adozan pieces_ of " wooden put
ty " for car repairs. He meant the
strips of wood used etir windot4s
for =the same purpose as patty ig
used in ordinary_ windows.
There is, however, in a largo num
ber of the terms used very
. great
bignity and indefiniteness, the same
word being used for different things
by differenti people uud at different
places. , l- Often a thing is designa•ed
by one word at one place and by
another somewhere else, so that in
transactions conducted by corres
pondence and telegraph,
.as railroad
business necessarily is, very much
confusion and - many mistakes are
constantly occurring from this
source. It, therefore; becomes daily
more and more important that some
common system should be adopted
for fern's employed in the operation
of railroads.
So great has this necessity become
in the car departments, and so embar
rassing, the confusion arising for the
,want of it, that the Master Car Buil
ders' Association has apponittd a
committee to prepair a dictionary_ of
such terms, to report at the next
meeting. It is, course, vkry_
'important that such vo --1:, if &tie at
all,•should 4 be well done, and that_
whatever is established by the Com
•alittee should rest upon so good
grounds that none of it will ever need
to be undone. If. Dittoes which ate
not aetinite, or appropriate; or tieli
conceived, should be carelessly or
neatly adopted, it would be impossi-.
nle, probably, every to set them
right.
Some people are very apt: to think
that one world is as another to desig
Date any particular thing, if only all
are agreed to apply that word., to
hat special thing. 'rhat. suchis'not
the sise, all who have ev-r giVen soy
thought or study to the construction

even . the most eleweritary knOwledge
-,f science have learned the immense
`Advantage resulting from accurancy
in the meaning and 4 use of terms, and
iu railroad matters,lwhere ambiguity
may lead to such iiiisastrous results,
it is especially itnitonant that the
rents used should,' ;be clear and
without any coufusiOu of meaning:.
