brought up from all' parts l_of the
State at the late mectinga the' Re

encouraging. The members alt felt
as to the result in their own counties,
and there were no reports of diSaff

publican counties, such as Lancaster
Chester Dauphin, Lebanon, Erie,
Blair. Tiogu, and Bradford, Old-fash
loned-majorities were promised ; and
in the Democratic counties; such as
11(rks. Schuykill, and . Luzerne, the.
prospects
.were said to be cheering.
Tim quarrels of the mass Of the Dem

tended corruption and defaleitinifli
in the Treasury Department of WS
State. The charges generally origi
nate with the New York Sun, one ,of
the vilest blackmailing sheets extant,
and are taken up by the smaller fry
of the Argus ilk' and dished at week
after Week, althcingt thie falsify - hid
been proven time and again. We
have not lately referred to these false
allegations, simply because' we did
not deem them worthy of any atten
tion; but the following article from
the Philadelphia Timeo, an organ
'which will not be charged with par
tiality to prominent Republicans, and
which never pennits,an opportunity
'rif finding fault with our party to
pass unimproved, we - commend to
the careful attention of any who have
read the Argus' diatribes and, been
inclined to believe them. Be it re-
Membered that the Time is the
ablest arid most violent opposition
paper printed in the State.- Treasurer
MacxEr has "successfully adminis
tered the affairs of the Treasury De
partment Ibseveral terms, and- while
he has been t target - for the shafts
iof copperheads and disappointed Re
publicans' the public have never lost
confidence in him, and he is today
deservedly one of the most popular,
trusted and honored leaders of the
great Republican party of Pennsyl
vania. The Times says :
" Those who have been panting to
hear from the legislative investiga
tion of the State Treasury will quiet
their expectations this, hot weather,
when they read the review_ of the
question by our reliable Harrisburg
correspondent The investigation
was started in a political riot, 'and,
logically enough, ended in apolitical
farce. While ambitious orators de
claimed againstthe plundering of the
Treasury on the floor of the House,
all seemed to be specially careful not
to present the evidence to sustain
their accusations; and a lot of:riolit
ical journeymen, and not half skilled
at that, finally ran away with an in
vestigation that they supposed would
make several full-iledgid Governors,
State Treasurers or Congressmen.
After a disgraceful struggle as to
who should win the .'political ele
phant,• the winners have floundered
about from mst to - pillar until the
public is pretty evenly divided in
judgment as to whether they have
, simply made a blunder or whether
they have gone wooling and got
sheared. Certain it is tlfat nothing
comes from the Trearniry investiga
tion, and a lot of politidians stand
aghast with diga'ppoiniment bemuse
they counted on a proven Treasury
deficit to carry the next election, and
now their hobby has faded from their
visions.
There have been more demagogism
and, dramatic political demonstm - -
tions on the Treasury question than
the citizen of average common sense
is inclined to make love to. :Men
have been told so often and so vehe
mently, that'" there's millions in it"
if the true deficit of the Treasury is
ever ascertained, that the legislative
poor devils who have gone on a hunt
for the bottomless hole in the Treas
ury, will have trouble to' explain why
they have missed one of such bound
less diMensions. The Times has re
ceived scores upon scores of letters
propounding all manner of inquiries
as to the alleged defalcation in the
State Treasury, and some Complain
ing I that we have not denounced
Treasury thieves along with reservoir
and - highway jobbers, councilmanie
mercenaries and Pilgrim ballot staf
fers. They are forgetful that when
The ,Time:g assails officials it is first
impregnable in its position, and is
fully prepared for the fullest vindica
tion of its accusations. We have not
alleged a defalcation in the State
Treasury because we do not believe
that there is one, or has been one
during the terms of any of our Intel
State TreaSurers. If there _ had
been a deficit in the State'Treasury
under Mr. MACKEY, as has been inti
mated .in every political campaign for
several years past, it would have been
demonstrated long ago bj men who
felt charged with just such duties,
and had the position, the intelligence
and the integrity to perform them.
For the first three years ending in
1874 the finance committee of the
Senate had the most intimate knowl-,
edge of the financial affairs- of the
State, and the. actual condition of
the Treasury: The editor of The
Timex was a niember of the Senate,
and from the time of his admission
in 1872, during his / full term, was .a
member of that committee. In 1872
it consisted of Senators GRAHAM,
'BROOKE, STRANG, WALLACE, PURIIAN,
and MCCLURE, after his admission ;
during the session of 1873 it consist
ed of Senators China t, 13uir4n,
WALLACE, STRANG and MFCLITWE,
and in 1874 the names of 'FARREL
and 3icSumutv were added. It was
one of the few committees,whoSe re
ports were never reversed in the Sen
ate, and it is safe td Arty that the
fidelity of its actions was never _clues
tionedi in or out of the body. It
looked . ' well after the financial condi
tion of the' State. While the House
was presumed to be the proper legis
iatite authority on questions, of rev
enue and appropriations, the Senate
was in point of fact the body that
moulded all such measures, and the
officials of the State were brought. ,
,
before the Senate committee when;
ever any question was in doubt. That
committee, without ostentatious dis.
play ells efforts, and looking to the ,
interests of the State rather than to

Though the crops of wheat and
grass in thut atNitien are somewhat
below the , average; the general crop
production throughout 'the country
will be very large this year. The
Cincinnati Price Current which is
usually well informed 'on such
ters, says
"Taking the COitutry at large, we
may say that there never was a more
favorable season for almost every
thing
_Which the lad prciduces. The
wool clip is doubtless the largest
ever sheared in ; the country. The
winter Wheat wai, injured somewhat
in the west; but the deficiency, if
there is any, will be neutralized by the
largely increased; amount of bread
stuffs . pr i
oduced n the Southern
States, which will ; recluce the demand
from that section upon the west, and
all other grain premises exceedingly,
well. The cotton crop at the south
holds out an equally cheering pros
pect., and t h e probabilities in regard
to the root - erqpo are also encourag
ing. In Europe, too, the crops are
unifotmly
,good, so that we may ex
pect 'pnly a moslerater export de
mand, for breidiltuffs. With such
prospectii there is reason to expect
continued low priees kir the staff of
life, and other articles must conic
down to their normal level. A year.
in which` the crops are 'good cannot
be altogether a bad,one for business,
and though the long looked for re
vival of trade may net be realized
this year, a solid; foundation will be
laid, wheretipon to real a new com
mercial superstrncture,l i that shall be
& cro p during. If the . c throughout
the world turn ou) according to their
present promise, it will be impossible
for thepresent ,depreased state of
trade to continuelbeyond the close of
the present year With good crops ,
we may defy commercial panics, and
look fcirward With hope to a
prosperous future , for busineSs all
over the world."
DEATH OF
37073
- Gen. Fititlytx PJ BLAIR, one, of the
Most conspieuoui of our F publiC men
during the past; twenty years, died on
Thursday evening last lat his real
dence in St. Louis. Although he has
been -- in feeble 'health for several
years, it is 'said the immediate ; cause
of 'his death wa*it tall lie received a
short time since. The good that can
be said of General BLAIR, now that
he is dead, sill not excite the angry
passion which has been inseparable
from his
„name. IHe was a noble ad
vocate of freedom for the oppressed
when all were notihe friends of free
dom that have rev i led him for a be
trayal of the.cause ; he was a gallant
and serviceableFioldier; and a patriot
hour of
_
in the of greatest need. We
will not pretend :to deCide how far
unworthy raotivCs' may have led him
to desert his o,,rty and enter upon
that , course off political reaction
which made hiln so Many enemies
from among l I
ose who were his
warmest friends. General BLAIR was
a man of his generation, ,and except
for his tmeommion abilities will not
add to either thC:light or shadow in
which the futnrei will regard it.

The weather, which all along has

remarkably cool and pleasant, has, during
the past few days, become oppressively
warm, and consequently the annual hegira

for flight, since which time the tide of de- -
parthres has been steady and et msta
There are those, however, who, for litany
reasons, must necessarily remain at home.

We had supposed, since the grim ghost

plain English, does not seem to satisfy
the Demoeracy;....who still continue 'to in
sist that an that lie has said upon the sub

people,- however, see no reason to distrust
the words of the President. No matter
what may be said by the Democracy upon
the subject, there is every indication that
the people are not to:be diverted from,the
vital question Dow at issue ',Note thein ;

Land its importance, we are glad to spy,

I The campaign of 1875 opens with every
[I in dication that the apathy through which
the Democratic party was allowed to early
rthe _last autumn elections is . fast !lisp',
, miring ; that a reaction has -taken place,
!and that the policy and principles of ,the
Illepubliean party will be triumphantly
sustained ill the approaching contests.
The causes for this are plain and ablind-
I ,:int No sooner had the smoke of She Bust
I political battle cleared away than the peo
;ple saw the rssults, anti began to realize
!the gravity of the Situation. With some
eighty blatant Confederate Oenerals, sub
erdinate officers and 'aidefs and siipporters
of the Confederate army elected to the
!United states Congress, and the: Lower

the aSpects of the political situation has
'come home to the frictiils of the Union
with a-force that is producing a yeaction
!which no sophistries of the Democratic
party can possibly counteract. From eye
' ry section of the Union there comes, thro'
the local press and. the-correspondence of
I State and County pOlitical organizations,
assurancesof a Substantial reaction in the
minds of the people. The indepenthmt
press is changing ground, and ranging
itself uhder the banner of the Republican
party. Republicans that absented them-.

From Maine, Ohio and Pennsylvania,
there is reliable information that the Re

'that the Democracy are divided beyond

division in the ranks of the Democraby,
