Unworthy of his high position' and

'terse and forcible language: ".In his
three years' service in the Executive
office GoT.IIARTRANFT has,played a
`role of extraordinary difficulty, and
played it so successfully as to dem
onstrate his
and
of great orig.
inal force and a remarkable genius
for political management. He has
redeemed :a tainted reputation and
convinced even his worst enemies
that the assults made upon his per-
Sonal character in 1872 were 'Unjust ;
and at the same time he has kept the
friendship of the reckless and corrupt
politicians whose schemes he has re
peatedly balked. No Governor of
Pennsylvania ever vetoed so many
bad bills as be has done. No one
ever 'succeeded to such'a remarkable
dergee in attracting the virtous ele
ment of his party by his geOd con
duct, and compelling that of the vic
ious by his skill in combinations and
controlling men.. Gova. CURTI!!
and GEARY had to struggle hard for
their renomination, but Gov. HART

That circnmstapce, if . nothing else,
'proves him to be a man of talent and

JUDGE BUTLER ON ,THE NEW Ll
' CENSE LAW.--JUDGE BUTLER, of Ches
ter county when granting licences
under the new law, indulged insothe
very sensible remarks. Among-.other
things he impressed. on those receiv
ing licenses the necessity of living
up to the provisions of the New . Li
cense Law, remarking that it was far
, more stringent than ever ; befor e known to the Statutes of the State.
An unlicensed man convicted under
its provisions, would be appaled a
the severity of its penaltieS from
"which . there was no escape; and the
licensed men ought to know that
while. the penalties against them were
different there . was Ino escape from
any of them, and convictions would
of, necessity result in such sentences
as -would surprise an offender who
• compared the new with the old pen
alties. There was no escape, and it
was the duty of all entering the bus
! insS to • make themselves thoroughly
acquainted ivith the provisions of the
new law, so that they may strictly
guard against its violation; and the
1 unlicensed man had better beware
how he tampered with the traffic,
• THE Presbyterian General Assem

adopted a resolution to the effect
‘,That the , continuous, persistent,

Papal hierarchy, to obtain control of
.the school funds in the several
States of the Union, or to have a
portion of said school funds diverted
from the legal and legitimate uses to
which said funds are pledged in order
to devote the money to the support

all that we can learn of lIESRY
AwLE we have reason to beliVe that

Unsullied reputation:' - It is safe to
say that he would' never have been
nominated by the class of men who
rule : the Republican party, if they
had not belived that it was a para
mount necessity to strengthen their
ticket by putting On it a candidate for
treasurer whose integrity of charac

" Our prospects and irequiroments, I
take it, are not many; our df:octrines are
so plain, our practices so Simple,-1 our
cause so Just, that • a - manly discharve of
duty by. one and all is the only needful
condition of success. We need men and
women-willing to sacrifice self anti !kiln's!'
, desires and prejudices for the good of the
cause, willing 'to spend time anti Means
in the day of adversity as well as in the
day of presperity ; men and women. -who
will work as well, or better, when the la
borers are few than when the harvest
fields •is crowded. The novelty of our or
ganization is gone ; the curiosity-seekers
have left us for pastures new, and' only:
those who have faith in the cause of Total
Abstinence, and-who are willing to'show
their faith by their works, remain 'to do
battle for the right.. Our army is reduced
by desertion and dishonorable discharge
to half its former strength, and even our
present numbers may. grow less ; but the
God of battles • has ordered us into , the
conflict, andly the sword of . the Lord,
which is the spirit of truth, we will con
quer.
," The results iii , vArious parts of our

I are evidence lhat even now, when all tem

people wlio think that thi! President
did not go far enough in his letter
on the; third term, and that it did not
reidly:,mean what it 'seemed to say.
To all such we commend' the follow
ing report of a conyersathini held
with the President recently, a 4 tele
graphed to the St. Louis: GlobeoE
WAsnixotox ' D. C., May 31.4 The I
President to-day received numerous toe
grains from personal friends and public
men Congratulating him upon his third
term letter, He has expressed himself
very freely regarding the matter, and says
he feels greatly relieved flow that the.
matter has been disposed Of. • " one
knows what a load has beeii taken off my
shoulders,". he said, and added, "friends
and foes have'alike been troubled by this
bugbear, Nit they have not been trimbled
half as ranch as I. have. The liumbdr of
letters sent to me, anonymOtts and other
wise, offering- all its of ',advice in! the
premises, is almost` countless, Very, feW
'people, however, have talked to Me re
garding it until to-day, and I find...that a
great many regret my course. But' !Wash
mgton is not always a healthy plaCe from
which to judge public opinion. I .believe
the majority of the- people of the country
will appreciate the difficulties I have la
bored under +nnd will - give: me the credit
of being truthful. I really do not intend
to be a candidate, and if ; any oiie !con
strues my letter otherwise, or that I am
seeking or will accept a nomination, they
will do me greatllnjustice. That is all I
have to say, only to repeat that . I', never
felt more relieved by the forming 'of a
public or political duty in all my life than
I do now. .

President Grant's letter to Geti. Whit - J.,

a year front now, aml :wile the nontination
for State Executive *ell off their hands,
the boys are'castinia:bout.for an available
candidate for Centennial President.
For a number of!, ycark it hasbeeit the
practice of the field officers of the party in
this city, of the RepubliCan persuasion, to
consult with Gen. Came?ort upon all im
portant questions of a political character
before taking decisive action; hence, when
-the Senator was with us a few days ago,
he was asked who he ttelieved the man
'for the occasion to lie. lie replied:
Charle.s Francis Mains, Of Massachusetts,
the greatest st«te.i»,ii oil our nation, will,

President Garrett, ill his aggressive
warfare upon the. Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, is entitled toithe credit of hav
ing ," drawn first blood. — Previous to
the quarrel the stock oil the Pennsylvania
sold at $57 per share ; now it is a sloW
sale at $49, a loss of SBI per share, which,
upon the 1,360,000 shares, appears to me
to foot up, or foot down. a loss of $lO,-
.880,000. Nor is this pie worst feature ;
stockholders in ('oh. t4cotes company have
always regarded it as alten per cent. pay
ing corporation, but, the tight has already
forced it down to an eight per cent. divi
dend, with the prospects still more gloomy
in the future.
From a carefully-prepared statement
made by the officers '4 !the Pennsylvania
Company. they admit -loss in gross re
ceipts, up to April 30th of this year, as
compared With 1871, of $144,601;08, with
the decrease more rapid now than at any
other time id; the year. I The fact is, the
Pennsylvania Railniad Company. With a
stock debt, ; a bonded debt, and floating
obligations . aggregating $149,888,397.59,
is in no condition to enjoy any such ex

It may be fun for Col. Scott, but I
doubt if the 18,000; shareholder's of the
company, whose annuql loss in dividends
is $1,360,000, are particularly delighted
with it ; certainly those who have lost

illation. I would not accept ale-tiornina

come under such circumstances as to
make it an imperative duty--circumstan

Here we have an emphatic denial_ : of
any intentions on the part of the Prdsi-"
dent to ask for or even accept a nomina
tion for a third time that ought to be and
is sufficient to settle all doubts upon that
question, and now.. the Democracy can
afford to let that subject drop.
The Laneaster .Convention declared • its
."adherence to the/ Unwritten law of the
Republic, which 'wisely and under the
sanction of the most venerable of exam
ples limits the Presidential service of any
citizen to two terms." But this was not a
bullying, brow-beating insult flung at the

passed by without; a word of comment
from the President as beneath ids notice.
Now the Denioerats who have charged
that the President was intriguing for a
" Third;Te.rm," can see how foolish they
have been. All of their assertions in re
gard to the President's aspirations are
proven false, their mouths for once have
been closed, and Democratic demagogues
have met with a deserved rebuke. But
the lesson will still go on at the polls, for
the people arc not yetready to take sides
