We do not priiposa at this time to

the defeat, of the pArty in so many
States and the loss of the lower
House of Congress. We only hope
that those calling themselves Repub

THE COUNTY.
In another column we giie the of
ficial-result by townships of the elec
tion on Tuesday laßt. By referririg
to it the reader will-see that while
our State ticket receives nearly thir
teen bundredanajority, Mr. L&PORTE
and one of our candidates - for the
legislature are defeated ; and Mr.
Scorr, candidate for the Senate, has
a majority—so small that the majo
ty in Wyoming for his oppobent is so
large as to defeat hiba by less than
one hundred.
_The opposition to LA-.
ioare.Vas bitter on account of his
antagOnism to corporations, and the
Republican voters in the rural dis
tricts to the number of nearly two
thousand remained at home;
It is idle now to speculate as to
the causes of the defeat. The die is
cast, and we, in common with the
Republican party, must submit to
the apparent voice of the, people. "If
the people can stand it we can."
If Mr. POWELL and Mr. ROCEWZLL
realize the, expectations of the Re

shall not be slow to give the credit.

A HANDSOME inheritance has come
to some lucky heirs residing in lowa
and Nebraska. Three generations
ago a wealthy , and public sprited
citizen, who was Mayor of Norwich,
England, died leaving to the munici
pality a large sum of money upon
the condition that in tho third genera
tion of his family the accumulated
interest 011 the sum donated to that
city should be paid to the heirs of
tha donor.' The decendants of this
generous and eccentric mien were
well aware of. The provisions of his
Last statement, and accordingly have
kept trace of the funds. Lately the
llst heir- of the second generation
C.ied, and the third generation, who
reside in the United' States, have
b..:en notified to appear on the 24th
of November and claim their prop
erty. The amount inherited is about
(<8 00,000, - American currency, and
will be divided among several peo
ple. Representives of these heirs
came East - last week and sailed for
Europe from New York on Saturday.
THE RPUBLICkIi CREED. —The Re

religious liberty; the right to vote
for whom. yon please without inter

right to travel or reside in any State
without danger of life, limb, or prbp

Republican party believes that 'all
men, rich or poor, great in small;
strong or weak, should have equal
protection under the law of the land,
and an equal right to grow in their
individuality to the highest stature
of mantl'oed - that is possible for them

TILE LINCOLN" MONUMENT.
In the excitement of the late po
1. .
htleal campaign we were compelled
to omit the account of the dedication
of the LINCOLN Monument, and as
anything pertaining to the great , and
good marcis always read with inter
est, we append the following:
Thursday. Oct. 15, was a great day
it Springfield, Illinois, it being the
occasion of the dedication of the
monument erected over the remains
of President Lincoln.' The Society
of the Army ,of the Tennessee held
its annual meeting there expressly_to
participate in these ceremonies, and
adjourned after appointing , Des
Moines, lowa, as its place for the
next annual meeting.
The processiqn began to form at
11 A. M., Gov. Beveridge acting as
Grand' MarshaL President Grant,
with Secretary Belknap, occupied a
carriage at the head of the proces
sion, preceded by a military band
from Newport Barracks, and escorted
by the Governor's Guard as a guard
of honor. Next came Rev. Dr. Heals;
an old friend of President Lincoln,
and Bishop Wayman, colored. In
other carriages rode Vice-President
Wilson, with Sir Powell Buxton, M.
P., of England; Generals McDowell
and Custer, with Mrs. Grant and
Mrs. Governor Beveridge. General
.Sheridan, marched on foot at the
head of the Society of the Army of
the Tennessee, and following him
was a long line of army, military and
civic societies. The proceesion ar
rived. at the cemetery at 1 1 ,- ; it. Not
less than 25,000 people were present.
After the playing of the Dead March
by
• the band, Bishop Wayman made
a fervent and eloquent prayer, and
the choir chanted, "With • malice
toward none, with charity for all."
Hon. Jesse K. Dußois then read a
historical sketch of the Lincoln
Monument Association'and the result
of its laborers, concluding as follows:
"By the liberal contributions of a
grateful nation we have been enabled
to provide a suitable place ~for the
wisest and poorest man known to
oar national history. There may
they rest in peace."
Senator Oglesby delivered an
eloquent oration. The choir sang
"Rest, Spirit, Rest," at the conclu
sion of which two Sisters of Charity,
seated on either side of the statue,
arose, and amid breathless silence
raised the red, white and blue
drapery from the marble form.
President Edwards then read a poem
written for the occasion by James
Judson Lord. The bands played
au appropriate air, when loud calls
being made for President Grant, he
stepped forward amid enthusiastic
applause and spoke as follows: •
"Air. Chairman,Laclies - and Gentleman:
7 -On an occasion, like the present it
is a duty on my part to' bear teMi
many to the great and good qualities
of the patriotic man whose earthly
remains now rest beneath the deli-
Cated , monument. It was not my
good fortune to make the personal
acquaintance of Mi. Lincoln till the
beginning of the last year of the groat
straggle foe National existence. Dar
nag those years of trotle and des
pondency among the any patriotic
men of the country, Abraham Lin
coln never for a moment doubted
but the final result would be in favor
of peace, union and freedom to every
race-in this broad land. •
"His faith in an all-wise Provi
deuce directing
was`
arms to this
joyful result was the faith of the
Christian that his Redeemer, liveth.
Amidst obloquy, personal abuse, and
hate undisgasted, which was given
vent to without restraint through the
press, upon the stump, and in private
circles, he remained that same
staunch, unyielding
,servant of the
people. Never exhibiting revengeful
feeling toward his traducers, he
rather pitied them, and hoped for
their own sake and the good name
of posterity they might desist.
"It did not occur to ]lint' for a
single moment that the man Lin
coln was being assailed, but that
the treasonable spirit waiting to
destroy the freest government the
stn ever shone 'upon, was giving
vent to itself on him Chief Execu
tive of the Nation only because he
was such Executive. As a lawyer in
your midst he, would have avoided
all that slander, for his life was a
pure and simile ; one,

.THE QUESTION OF WAGES.
Last week we visited tate of the
principal iron manufacturing towns
in the interior of Pennsylvtnia. The
ironworkers of the place ar -employ
ed More constautly than diirine the
Spring and suearner month 41 but at
wages very greatly reduc d . below
those which - were paid:the 'a year
ago. 'goat of these men ar paid ac
cording to a sliding-seale, b sod upon
the price oeiroit—the most equitable
method elf adjusting wage ever de
v'e.ed, and one which, if 'generally
adopted, 4 fwould almost entirely re
move the temptation to ehgage in
strikes. When the price of iron is
high, the ironworkers of this Penn
sylvania town are paid high wages ;
when the price of iron deelihes, their
wages are correspondirigly reduced.
Just now they are receiving lower
wages than have been paidthem for
years, h i nt they are receiving all that
their employers can affor to pay
I
them. We made enquiry c ncerning
the wages now paid to th various
departments of the works; including
the coal and iron
.miners " and the
teamsters and comnion labOrers, and
found that the average com ,ensation•
of several thousand men is onsider
ably less than two dollars a day, or
less than six hundred dollars a year.
A few receive much high 4. wages,
but many receive far lower, The
average number of hours employed
is ten. -Daring the past year the
reduction in wages hex - averaged
about thirty per cent.
We had the curiosity to inquire
into some of the effects of the reduc
tion of wages, We found that the
men were satisfied that their employ . -
era were doing their best for them
that was pass:hie, and were t4retero
in a rdeasure contented. Bat they
all expressed a desire to see " better
times." Low wager could be endured
if better could not be had, but they
were not desirable.. One said to us :
"It is up : hill worlenow, sir, to make
both ends meet.'! A leading butcher
told us that the men bought less
meat now than formerly ; a grocer
complained that many of his custom
ers were running in debt to him, and
they were sober, steady men; an old
physician remarked. that his patients
did not pay their bills 'as promptly
as they once did ; a carpentei told
us that there was lessluilding going
on this year than for many previous
years, ; the collector' of school taxes
said that it was difficult to collect the
assessments, and a church trustee
said that the preacher did not receive
the whole of his salary the preced
ing month.. A dealer in musical in.
strumeies sold none c now to working•
men, and a merchant tailor had never
experienced a duller season. It was
plain that the business of the town
had suffered greatly, and that the
workingmen were generally in strait.
ened circumstances, while many were
falling in debt. These evidences of
hard times were not due directly to i
"lack of confidence " in the business
fatnre o! which Iwo hear so much,
nor to'the panic which ended long
ago, bat to a scarcity of money in
men's pockets caused by the reduction
in their wages.
We looked in the faces of hundreds
of workingmen and Watched their
movements. Their work was hard
work, and they seemed tired and in
need of rest. Shorter hours would
be regrealboon to them, but shorter
hours would bring less pay. There
is no 'harder work than that of the
miner and ironworker, and 'if any
Workingmen. require short hours they
do. They are entitled to' receive the
highest wages the businessof mining
ore and coal and making ire% will
justify, and the comforts and laxnries
of life they and , their children de
serve to enjoy if the fathers can pay
for them - '
And now we have come to the
point of our - narrative. Free trade
advocates in this country, by denying
protection to American labor against
the competition of low-priced Euro
pean labor, would render permanent
the conditions which have compelled
the redaction in the Wages of our
miners, ironworkers and other labor
ers. By denying protection, they
would, for instance, compel the
Anaerican iromnasters tR procure iron
as cheaply as Welsh or English rivals.
To do this he would have to pay low
pages to his Workmen--as low as are
paid to Welsh or English miners and
ironworkers. • Low wages mean in
Wales and England poor food, shab
by clothing, uncomfortable
,and unat
tractive homes, but little schooling
for the children, and no' hope for fa
thers or children getting on in the
world. What tbey mean in this coun
try we have last shown in part, but
if we can imagine a period of free
trade policy extending over a quarter
of a century we will find it producing
the same fruits thit a like policy
bears elsewhere. We would have an
ignorant, imbruted, degraded, crush
ed and despairing population of
working people: We. would make,
iron as cheaply as Welsh and En
rtlisb ininmasterk but we would
make it at tho cost of the oomfort,
happiness and highest doledopmenit
of tnitpeople. If we can affortio

American workingmen for, hi h

• • WAttrutivax,i Nov. 2,1871,
The removal of the „Army Head
quarters from Washibgton to St.
Louie, Mo., is 'very far from being
popular with anybody.' The business
world condemn it been* it lessens
to a certain extant so much of their
trade, while', that portiori of the both
intmity known as npper i tendomliel
that there is one etoppmg place less
in their fashionable xocinds. Many
surmises - are made with regard to!
the probable cause of this move uponJ'
the part of the Genei•al, , none of '
which, however,- appear to. be satis-
Jaetorily received by the public. The
frequent suggestion, that it may pos
sibly have a political significance,- is
not regarded with any degree of ore
dence, from the fact that be has re
peatedly and-emphatically expressed
himself as being - in-,:no; way desirous
to vacate his present position for one
of still , greater 'responsibility, provid
ing it was possible for him to obtain
it. It is understood that at the next
sessicn of Congress the famous Mas
sachusetts Republican; who always
keeps an eye on everything, will ,en
deavor to get passed a law making
Washington hereafter Army 'Head
quarters. He does not propose to
endorse the ides .that this important
branch of the War Office shall be
come migratory like the birds of pas
sage, and be moved from place to
place as fancy may dec'de, or person
al interests dictate.
i ,
"And yet they arc , not happy.
The ,Post Office Department, which
has long been looked upon as a haven
of rest for ancient' Spinsters and
comely widows; where old and played
out politicians were thought to
abound, and where death only made
xemovals, has recently been the scene.
of a good deal of commotion. The
nnlooked-for decapitation of a large
number, of heads, both male and fe
male, was something so unusual that
the ancient anatomies that are accus
tomed to move in and around' its
sombre portals were thrown, into an
excitement, from , which they do not
seem' to recover. It appears that the
new Postmaster General enters upon
his duties with ideas that differ very
materially from those of his prede-
cessors in regard to
_the internal' ,
management of the Department.-
Changes have been, Ode, rules; and
regulations put in force, which'place
a, - very differe.nt aspect upon things
generally. Its antiquated and, Pre
historic systems have been knocked
out of existence, anda thoron,gli re
form inaugurated ; snot, how4mer,:
without creating some slight feeling.'
of disgust among th antedelavians
who fondly imagined themselves ex
empt from the, observance' of the
'rules that are enforced in other De
partments of the Government. The
mere passing of the civil service ex
aminations, it appears, will not - be
regarded as being a !sufficient guar
antee of fitness for ' the position
sought after. The ioral as well as
mental qualifications , t aro hereafter to
be'taken into consideration. A waytel ,
of time in the Department, scanda
lous living, and evil Habits,' are to be
corrected by a prOmpt dismissal
whenever brought to the knowledge
of the Postmaster General. As ?!dr.
Jewell will not, in his private busi
ness, hive persons employed of I in
temperate habits, he proposes to
carry out the same *ale in the ad
ministration of his office. "The use
of intoxicating drinks, therefore, has
been strictly forbidden daring -once
hours, with the emphatic declaration
that the services of those disregard
ing the order will be dispensed with,
and their attendance at the Depart
ment no longer required. Suppressed
mutterings, " deep but not loud," is
the result of these orders, especially
with those hailing from the "sacred
Rile," who, from long use and a con
stitutional habit, cannot do without
heir noonday "nip." Restaurant-
I t.
eepers, too, in the 'vicinity, 'shrug
heir shoulders as they read the
' handwriting on the wall," bewail
the degeneracy of the times, and
pgh for a return of the goad old
emocratio 'days when governnieni
Officials were gentlemen and good
old Bourbon was a staple article of
trade. -
The Postmaster Cleneitil, it seems,
has also made up his mind not to
allow claim agents to practice in the
Departinents. Believing that the
employment of the same is tt reflec
t:ion upon the government, he has
consequently given notice that 'here
after they *ill not be recognized.
The transfer to ,New York City of
a large portion of the printing that
bite heretofore . been done in the
Treasuri, will cause another dis
charge from the Department of about
four hundred employes, mostly 'fe
males. A great deal of complaint is
being made about so great a number
of women being thrown out of, em
ploymeut, and at this particular, sea
son of the year. Bat the fact that
a like number may be so employed
elsewhere, where theqxpense of liv
ing is less, and the .proceeds of their
labor is demanded for other pur
poses than personal, adornment, does
I
not seetn to be taken in o l considera-
tion. - Were those thst are so em
ployed

deceased soldiers, with ifamiliess de-1

there might be some c nee foraom• I .
plaint ; but the truth s, that 'very
3 1
many, if not a majorit of them are
the daughters and, in mint' instances,
the wives'of those whoa ri circumstan
ces in life by no means compel them
to seek this employment for a liveli
hood. 'lt would not he,' a ~difficult
matter for the merchants andmodisles
of the city to explain how the money

ed. This, we suppose, May be con
sidered as one great r ,,a6on of the
howl that is being set npl against the
Secretary, who is evidently looking
to the interests of the.Oovernment in
place of consulting the 'interests of
individuals and corpor4ticns. In the
employment of female labor .the
original idea of c ,
,appointin only the
Widows and daughters!' ef b deceased,
soldiers appears to el almost lost
sight of. - So many liar e secured
places who, if viewed rom a moral
standpoint, might be balled 0 good,
bad, and indifferent," hat gradually
a taint of suspicion has become more
or less attached to nearly all -who
hold or seek these appointments. As
to clerical 'ability, however,' much
may be said to the contrary by writers
on Female Suffrage and I Woliaan's
Rights; so far, it has not been made
sufficiently manifest to' receive from
the Heads. of Bureaus' a very high
recommendation er e ders,ement. It
is tale that °sceptic s t 4 31 this may
I ,E
be named, and that certain Bureau
officers are loud in theiiH praise. of
female Clerical ability ; ' bat then the
question arises, why ' 'this " thus 2"
The, answer at this time , although
not a difficult one, we 0 not choose to
make.. .1

_ r
The \ lftilletin of the American Iron
i' ana Sled Association recently pub
lished the following article of .great
interest to par readers, as it presents
a bit of local history: .
` While the it familiar with
the history of iron-making accord to
Mr. Neilson, of Scotland, the credit
for his invention of the hot blast as
applicable to the anthracite blast fur
nace, they forget the fact that as far
back as 1833
,(one year before Mr.
Neilsonifiled hie patent paper, and
three years before Parliament grant
ed him 'the right to the patent, and
five years before Mr. Crane conceived
the idea of a - practical result from
Mr. Neilson's patent :7 -I,4de British
.Asseeiation's' repOrt for
,1838), Dr.
Frederic W. Geisenhainer, of Schuyl
kill county, Pennsylvania, was ex
perimenting with ovens, for heating
air before its introduCtion into the
blast furnace; and the result of his
experiments on a small scale were so
satisfactory that his Caveat for the
patent was prepared. His experi
ments, continued through , 1837, '3B
and '39 in connection with Mr. Wm.
Lyman, who was then running the
Inrnace at.. Pottsville with charcoal.
These gentlemen were encouraged'by
Arr. Nicholas. Biddle, of Unite'
States bank fame, Philadelphia; an.
Colonel Joseph PaXson, of Ctitawissa,
Pennsylvania; thelformer oilering
reward of one thousand dollars, fo
the first ton of pig iron made in this
country. •
On the 18th day of January,6lB4o,
Mr. Lyman invited a number of gen
tlemen to Pottsville to witness the
working of 'ais furnace with anthra
cite coal. All that Dr. Geisenhainer
had clamed and taught for seven
years before was then practically de
n:loess-rated, and to Mr.' Lyman was
awarded the premium for ,the first
anthracite pig iron made in the-coun
try. The furnace in which it was
made was then christened the "Pio
neer Furnaee," and is still known by
1 that name. •On the occasion of the
[ celebration, Mr. Biddle made this
!prophetic speech,: .
"And this, after all, is the great
1 mystery—the same substitution of
what-is called the hot blast in lieu of
the cold blast. Let us see IN changes
{ which this simple discovery is des
, tined to make. As long as the iron
ores and coal of the anthracite re
giou were incapable of fusion, the
I.ores were entirely useless, and the
i coal nearly unavailable for mannfac
!tures, while,-as the disappearance o
timber made charcoal very expensive,
the -iron of. East Pennsylvania was
;comparatively small in quantity and
high in price, and , the defective com
-1 munication with the interior made
lits transportation very costly. The
iresult wad that, with all the materi
lids for supplying iron in our 'own
hands, the country has been obliged
[ to pay enormous sums to Europeans
Ifor this necessary.. * * * * *
'The dependence is deplorable ; it
ought ' to cease for ever,; and let us
hope that, with the new power. this
day aCquired, we Shall rescue our
-1 selves hereafter from such a costly
humiliation. We owe it to,onrselves
not thus to throw away the bounties
of Proiidence who in these very ma
terials has blessed us with a prefu-
Sion wholly unknown elsewhere. -With
these- resources . you would have
abundant employment,l4l you could
only supply the present' Wants of the
country for which we are now de
pendant on foreigners. But the
sphere of. demand is every day widen
ing for the consumption of iron. The
time is coming' when nothing bat
iron road will satisfy the impatient
travelers and the competition of
trade. The time is coming when iron
ships will supplant these heavy,short
lived, and. inflamable structures of
wood. We shall not long be content
to cover our houses with strips of
wood under ',the name of shingles,
prepared for the first sparks; if we
can have low-priced iron, in- which
event, too, the present pavements of
.o_nr towns. would- be su'perceded by
footwaYs of iron. * * rlf the
coal and iron have made Great Britan
what she is, if ,this has given her
power of.. four . hundred millions of
men and impelled the manufacto
ries %%1101' have made us, like the
res:-, of the world; her debtors, should
not we, with at least equal advant
ages, make them instruments of our
own independence."
