IT appears that the Star mail routes in the national postal service numbered ten thousand, and have been investigated over and over again; but thus far the frauds have only been exposed on about two 'hundred routes, where they extend to millions of dollars dishonestly obtained from the public treasury.

THE Work of re-building the -Danville Insane Asylum is progressing_witb rapid 7 ity. It is the purpose of Dr. Swum; the Superintendent, to have the building under cover before winter sets in so as to preserve the walls from damage.

JUDGE BLACK'S DEFENAE. In two late Sunday editions of the Philadelphia Pres:4 there has ap- peared lengthy articles purporting to be interviews of a reoorter of that paper with Judge JERE. BLACK, in which is given solve hitherto unpub lished history of the closinglours of the IkeilAxAN administration. In the artielis published Judge BLACK' disparages 'the loyalty of General SCOTT, and makes the allegation that he himself was. a Union man at the breaking out of the rebellion. For twenty yearis has Judge BLACK re mained siler.t andillowed the history 9f his political past to be darkened by the charge _that he Was disloyal to his country in her hour of peril. Do men with the evidence in their own hands to disprove charges of crime brought: against them, bury such evidence and quietly submit to a. verdiet of guilty, and bear the odium such a verdict brings, year in and year out; for nearly a quarter of a century ? llktory, up to this year of our Lord, onathousand eight hun dred and eightyone, has failed 'to record the circumstance if such men have had dieing. The .men, top, whose metuinio are disparaged by Judge IlLAcx:'s Statementa, are dead In defense of their own honor and loyalty thdy cannot: speak. The grace seals with the silence of eter nitye. their 'Except, then, only as history saYs otherwise!" can Judge BLACK be now contradicted._ in his assertions. Had the Jadge spoke' in the lifetimes of BUCtIIOAPJ or SCOTT they might liave answered in their own defense, • and_disclo c ped some facts that judge BLACK has perhaps failed to furriish the publicl i , We do -not wish to - be understood as desiring to convey theidea• - that HUCHANAN could haii convinced any one that de did his whole duty as Chief Mag istrate of the - nation in thi perilous hours at the close of 1860 and-the beginning of - 1861, or that he was not lacking in patriotic courage and decision. .Nither do we wish to say anything prejudicial to Judge BLACK that the facts - of history do not war rant. None can be more willing to do him *ll justice—none will rejoice more h eartily= if time and the truth of histAiryWill folly vindicate him and irove the defense he now makes to be founded in truth. •But we firmly believ4Avith a number of our cotemporarics; and , notably the Eas ton Free Press, that eierything that Judge BLACK says- now could- have been said as well lit,a period nearer the close of the war; or after be had gone out of once. The documentary evidence he produces is in detached letters and fragments. Without the context of the record their proper significance cannot be known. With the special pleading of a lawyer Judge Biecit puts . forward what he can use for his own purpose and taw presses'the rest. : Bvenat4ast , Wrem Morpn ory is alreaditeld in ;contempt, and chietly.hecause he - followed .constitw Mount say - di:CT given himhy Judge 14 , .414 Abi , conv#4lo44:oii,F.4o:** BiatOkldd Alive* beit' thaihe wanofltit - ineoititt ilttittrairt*a eattinet,4ut*it *lfni department ofjustice as Amere head without any vote or influence in State affairs. Tbe_ high standing JERE. BLACK had with BuctbiTAN disproves this: The attitude of Mr. BLACK towards loyal men and loyal effor s tf in the early, days of the ad ministration of Ltscops "forbids the belief that he was in sympathy with the Union cause. - This generation will never belieie that injustice has beet:y(lone' Jim. BLACK inhte public estimate of. his lisloyalty. , He had his opportunity when he was being quoted by north ern Democrats as authority that the government had no -right to coerce the rebellious States, and therefore enlistments of soldiers ought to be discouraged because the Union army was 'to be used for an unconstitutional purpose. One word from him at that time would have silenced the Copper heads, and that word would- have been in accord with the sentiments be now says he entertained at that tine. And yet he refused to utter it. On the contrary, without a word of protest or denial, he allowed his professional 'eminence, to be quoted as the source of constitutional doc trine that all through the war sus tained the Democrats in this State and all over the north in sending men to Congress to-vote against supplies for Union soldiers, to attempt to cripple the government of LINCOLN, and to prevent if possible every vigotous war measure. The Democrats quoted JERE. BLACK'S written and spoken opinions aa the authority for the sen timent they expressed, when in the heat of the conflict between the States they whined about " the constitution as it is; the Union as it was." And JERE. BLACK never said in any prib lic print or On : any platform or any where that people could kriow it, ".I am for whipping the rebels. I want men and money voted for a vigorous :prosecution' of the - war." Every shred of his influence during the, war was notoriously in favor of the course pursued by organized Democracy, and the course of organized Democ nl4 in the-,north during the war was the course :dictated by the treasonri ble sentiment in the rear of our army. That cape encouraged the rebels in front of- our lines - to hold out,rind compelled Union Democrats to at and vote away tr . Ora their party. An utterance for the right and against the wrong by Judge BLACK , would have broken the back of, the treason able sentiment that during the war swayed the Democratic party in the north. But that utterance he refused opportunity after opportunity to make. Judge BLACK has many great qual ities as a lawyer, no doubt. As a pleader he has few equals. His re cent defense of the Christian religion, as against the attacks of, 808 INGER SOLL, was e. masterpiece of argument., For that Christianity owes him much. For his attempt to blacken the mem ory of Gen. WINFIELD i Scorr, at this late day, when the hisOry of the re bellion has been made up, neither Christianity, humanity nor friendship owe= him -anything. There may , be tiothing in ,the thought, but there seems to be . a continnateness, so to 'speak, between Defense of the Christian. Religion, and Black's Defense , of 'BLACK Against Histor y somewhat , remarkale. The first came unexpectedly .. : So did the sec' bud. The first was opportune and Acceptable. The second may possi T bly have been brought forth to pave the way for the Judge to secure the DemoCratic presidential nomination in 1884. If it is a bid for such nom ination, then for the assured' success of the Republican party, we hope it will prove succcessful in its mission. AL ENEFIEL LESSON. While it is still undecided whether, the long struggle President GAR 'FIELD is making for life will be suc cessful or not, it is beyond doubt that but for his superior constitution, and above ail his excellent and air steinious habits, the struggle would ere this have been ended, and another name added' to the list of Presidents of the United States who died-while in office. The lesson conveyed; says the Lancaster Inuirer, is .one that should sink deep into the hearts of the whole people, and especially ad dresses itself to , the young men of the nation. If the, life of . President GARFIELD IS saved, its preserva tion must be 'attributed above, all things to the fact that he avoided riotous living and lies been careful ,to observe the injunction to "be tem perate in all thing*" Thus his con stitution has , been invigorated and hiS ability to resist disease and in juries vastly increased and strength- ened. The people of the United States have cause to be grateful that such is the fact; otherwise they would now be mourning the loss of their chief executive. ,The important lesson which this conveys should not be lightly passed over by the public. Every man who indulges in high slid riotous living, and violates, the laws of life and health, lays up forLlthnself a' punish. went that is sure to come sooner or later. \ Ho may escape it - for a time, but in the long run- it cannot be evaded. Let disease overtake--him, let accidental injury of a serious natureorpss his path, let the bullet or knife of the , assassin endanger his life ; and the foes that he has nur. tared, _and tiiat-heye hitherto re. ma*d in ambush, will stilt up and orePeed' _ bill NO Ole*t t tbe grirr On ;tile= otheii;f444:: : * : like ,himself - etc* . to bear a`.

But it is per haps unfair to charge the unfortunate young man with the crime of parricide artil full investigittion shall show that he fa guilty. The crime is of the most atro cious character, and if it really has been committed; ikis the first instance of the kind—if we remember correctly—that has ofturred in this county." At a hearing before a Jurtice, you tig•iittr.mn was -dis charged : from custody, there not being sufficient evidence to warrant his being held for trial; _ STATITICS laid before the Congress of ' Brewers which recently met at Versailles shows that there are in Euripii about 4;- 000 breweries, which tirodirce annually nearly 2,250,000,000 gallons of malt liquor. Great Britain alone produces a third of the entire quantity, or to be exact 785,- 017,002 gallons. Prussia, 318,579,998 gallons; Bavaria, 260i757,002 gallons,; Austria, 245;975,158 .gallons France, 155,980,000 gallons. It will tin* be seen that the Teutonic nations are eminently the beer producers, its they are also the principal beer drinkers ; whore wine is said to be had nearly as elleaply es beer, the sigt 'liquor is not preferred.. The proptirtiion in which beer is consumed vas ries very much. Bavaria heads the , list with 54tallons per head per .annum, or rather over one gallon a week. Belgium is next with 30 gallons, and - England is about the same, namely, 29 gallons, or, roundly speaking, something over half a gallon per head per week. In Germany, excluding Baviria, the average consump tion is 19 gallons, and from this a great drop follows, to tl gallons in Scotland, and 81. in Ireland, where whisky is preferred. Austria consumes only 6 i gallons 'of beer per head, and France only 4. GOOD examples are always worthy of : imitation,, and - here is one which com mends itself to a class of tradesmen who safer much by misrepresentation. The liquor men, saloon keepers and others of Bloomington, Illinois, have formed an as sociation, the object of which is„ to pre vent the sale of spirituous or milt liquor to confirmed drunkards, women, men who abuse their s families, and men who are known not obe able to spend money for ; drink with ut depriving their families of the necessaries of life. This is temper ance in its truest sense and best bearing. If the liquor men of ell cities and towns would form similar associations and act faithfully in the furtherance of these pur poses, their business would become far more popular than it is. No men or set of men ever - made anything by deliberate ly contributing to the misery of mankind, and any man or men who associate them selves to diminish each misery will al ways command and receive respect. CONSIDERING how eagtirl the Virginia 'Bourbons now seem to pay! the debt of that State, it is somewhat' surprising that it has not been , paidlong ago: They have had powers and opportunities to, make prevision for the interest _time and again, yet they never did anything better than realifust and repudiate. The Funding Act of 1879 repudiated:half the arrears,of interest, and the debt was readjusted 'from forty-seven millions to thirty-onii -million dollars. The total amount of in terest and principal thus far repudiated is estimated at $37,000,000, and although the "tree blue" Democracy declare that the debt must bepaid, and denounce "re pudiation in every shape and form," they have absolutely refused thus far to levy taxes to pay the interest The profes sions of the Bourbons are simply promis: es intended to catch the current of popu lar applause, - - Ann now pmes a.man, said to be an eminent civiengineer, who affirms that the nioon is dot a mire-enough material body, but a Mere phenome non , caused by the - - - taentioliof something or other on the surface of the earth. His idea is pro bably suggested by some late guesses about cometiii Upon this hypothesis the stars and everything else we see or think we see in the sky may be done away with. _What in the world is "science" coining to? If this sort of thing goes on we may, prepare to say good-bye before long to the Copernican .theory of the solar system and to return to the 'notion of . Btolemy and Aristotle, recently revived by Broth er JASPER, of Richmond, Virginia,- that the sun revolves around-the earth. • CAPTAIN COON, of Ohio, slapped the month of a fellow who said be hoped GARFIELD would die, and was - fined by a magistrate , fbr summit.
