THE State Temperance Convention
meets at Harrisburg to-day, Thursday.
Tan Obio-Sense last week adopted a
resolution to place a statue of Gensral
GARTH:I7D in the-old House of Represen
tatives at Washington, D. C.
TtrEus were more persons hung in this
country in igBl than ever before in a sin
gle year, while those charged with-taking
human life more than double the list of
—any twelve months.
AT the meeting of the Republican State
Committee held at Philadelphia, Thurs
day, Harrisburg was chosen as thapLice
for holding the State Convention, and
May 10th as the date for holding it.
Sr. Jon; the ternperanceeovernor of
Kansas has officially acknowledged the
claims of women to official station by ap
pointing Mrs. CORA M. Dowiss, of Wyan
dotte, to be a regent of the State Univer
sity.
TEtE following States will elect Gover
nors this year :—Alabama, Arkansas, Cal
ifornia, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware,
Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Nebraska; Nevada, New Hamp
shire, New York, Pennsylvania, South

A CIRCULAR has been
_issued by the
Secretary of the Treasury prohibiting the
officers, clerks and employes of the De-'
partment from making recommendations
for appointments or giving any informa
tion to outside parties in respect of exist
ing vacancies. "Violation of the order will
be deemed sufficient Cause for removal.
IT le understood that the Greenbackers
in Congress will resist any legislation in
tended to reliqwe the national banks, the
charters of about eighty of which expire
this year, from a feature of the present
law which enables one stockholder to com
pel the bank whose charter expires to
wind up its business and divide its assets..
WHAT changes twenty years have made
in the condition of the races of the South
Among the representatives in the Ten
nessee Legislature are a former master
and his sliver Instead, however,, of.an
tagonizing each other's interests they ap
pear to agree touching the adoPtion of
laws that will place upon equal footing
toe political rights of both classes.
Tae credit of the State is all that its
good citizens could desire. The new loan
of ten millions to •redeem the one was
given out at Itarrisburg at a premium '6f
t 429,339.17. 'The interest ranges from
three and a-half to four percent. This
=. means that money is plentiful, and-There
is a demand for safe and long investmen.s.
Nothing better can be had than our State
loan.
THE annual increase of wealth in the
United States is enormous and needs only
to be stated in comparison' with other
countries to enaule us to. fully compre
hend it. The increase in the United States
is estimated, $825,000,000 ; the acenmtV
lation in Great Britain is $3:..'5,000,000 ;
France, $376,100,000, and in Germany
$200,000,000. Annual incomes reach the
highest average in this country and Great
Britain-4165.
A mu. is now before Congress to estab
lish a teat of responsibility when insanity
is pleaded as a defense in criminal cases
tried in any court over which that body
has jurisdiction. It provides that no per
son indicted in the District of Columbia,
or any Territory, in any court of the Unit
'ed States, shall be_acquitted on the ground
of insanity, except on proof that at the
time the 'offense: was committed he-did
not,know the nature and quality of the
act, or did hot-know that it was unlawful
or wrong.
THE special House. committee on the
expenses attending the illness and burial
of President Gansier.n and allowance to
his-widow have adopted a resolution of
fered by Mr. PAGE, of Californinstruct
hag the chairman, Mr. TAYLOR, of Ohio,
to give public notice that all persons bay
-ing claims for services rendered or mate
rial furnished during the illness and burial
of the late President GARFIELD should

SEW York and other States are very
apprehensive that Pennsylvania is gett
ing tb much power in Cougirss. Observ
ing atickapprebensiveness, the Lebanon
Courier thus tritthfully remarks : "For
long years the• old Keystone has been
a kind of a blind giant, with New York,.
Ohio, and other States overshadowing
her in political intluance. If she has
taken a new departure, it is what she
should have dove, and all Pennsylvanians
should be glad of it. If Senator Camer
on, his brought this about by skillful
Management, he is entitled to credit for
it, and our State owes him thanks for
it. Pennsylvania has been long enough
kept in the back ground through indi
vidual jealousies and _ fsc_ioual quarrels.
Let her Republicans now un'te for ber
just aggmndiiement.".
THE. value ofproperty, at. assessed,
for purposes of tanition, in the United
Slates, hi $16,897,135,567, or $33 , 1.80 per
capita for t. population of 50,155.783.
-The New England States, with 3,010,-
529 of the population, hold $2,632,076,_
586 of the property, 0r5661.27 per avita;
that is to say, with considerably less than
one.tielfth of the population they haFe .
about two-thirteenths of the wealth of
the country. The Middle States have
$5,567,073,848 of property to . 11;756,055,
inhabitants, or 6473.35 per capita ; tlie•
.Western States have 18,180,4.4,614 to
18,524,989 people, or 313,63_ per capita ;
and the South. with 15,247,393 people,
assesses its own property: at $2,260,246,-
690, or only 6155.29 for each person.
The states which have the moat wealth
have also tbs baavieat debts. In :yew
England the state, county and tows in
debtedness amounts to 44.54 per capita ;
in the Middle states, $41.57 ; in the West,
$13.17, and in the South, 18.43. The
difference does not exactly correspacd
with the difference in wealth but it does
approximately.
pis report of Professor PIIMPRLLT,
special agent of the census uffl e, has been
published, containing statistical matter
on the production of iron ore in. the I:lnit.
ed States'. during 1880. The entire psi,-
duction of ore for the year was 7,071,00
tons. Of this amoint Pennsylvania yield
ed 2,185,675 tons. Michigan comes next
with 1,824,712 tons, and the balance of
the Product is divided as follows : New
York, 1,262,127 tons; New Jeisfy. 757,-
372'; Ohio, 547,303; Missouri, 386,197 ;
Alabama, 191,676 ; Virginia , 182,326 ;
Maryland, 139,628;_ Tennessee, 104,465;
Georgia, 91,416 ; Kentucky, 64,809 ; Mas
sachusetts, 62,637 ; West Virginia, 61,-
216; Wisconsin, 41,440; Connectigit, 35,-
018 ; Oregon, 69 44 2 ; Maine. 6000 ; Texas,
3600 ; North Carolina, 3318 ; Delaware,
2126 ; Vermont, 560 ; Indiana, 513. The
gain over the product of 1870 is 135 per
cent. The-six great iron States still hold
the relative position they hell ten years
ago in ore production. Since 1870 seven
new States have been added to the iron
producing sections, among them being
Oregon, whose product- 6972 tons was
from the Oswego iron beds. While• Penn
sylvaui led in the?,totdi nunit er of tons
smelted, the value of Michigan's product
was greater than that of the former State.
I=l
MEM
WORK, AND THE WAY TO DO IT.
At a meeting of the State Repo)).
lican Committee last week the time
of holding the State Convention was
fixed for the 10th' of May. The Com
mittee was about evenly divided be
tween that and later date, but the
time was fixed by a majority of i One
vote. Though a later date would have
been preferable on some accounts,
but chiefly because it would have
shortened the campaign, the time fix
ed affords ample opportunity to can-
vass the merits of the candidates and
to give the masses of the party the
pritilege of expressing 'a
deliberate
preference. Four months may be
considered a sufficient space for all
the preliminary work. If the masses
of the party cannot find out and tell
what they want in four months they
may as well retire from business.
But the selection of proper candi
dates for the important potations to
be filled next . November cannot be
made by votes f ongregated on the
hayscales or in corner groceries.
There is work to bedone. There is
right way to do that work.. The
complaint is that - cinder the customs
of the time the-voice of the people is
not heard in the State Conventions.
It is charged that the.selection of del
egates is not popular, but usurped by
a feW active politicians. Now- this
complaint and this charge can be
disposed of by the people themselves.
But 'they cannot dispose of it by
growling about
.the past. The past
is past. The present is ours, and the
future will be exactly What we make
it. We can make it redound to. our
credit, or we can go around, exhibit-
Lig our scars and , leave our business
.unattended to..
The work to be done relates to the
constitution of the Convention in
structed to select particular men, if
such be the wish of the people, but
in any „case to select none but good
men, and men whose Ileliublicanistu
is not so recent as to create suspicion,
The way to do-this work is to assem
ble in town meetings, discuss the sit
uation, and elect delegates to the
County Convention. The duty of
the latter will be to select delegates
to represent the Republicans of Bqui
ford county in the State Conventtou
to be held on the 10th of May - next.
If ar.ybody thinks this involves trio
much time and labor- he is considera
bly less wise than his time. The
haphazard 'method of .constituting
State' Conventions is at,the bottom
of all our troubles. The State Com
mittee; has nothing whatever to do
with the selection of delegates. When
it has fixed the date of the Conven
tion it has done its work What re
mains to be done is for the people in
the several counties to call thet . people
together and find - out, if possible,
what is their will. No word7,can go
out from any point beyond the limits
of a county instructing the people of
that county whit to do. ' Or if any
foreign influence chooses to try that
hazardous experiment it can try it,
and the people can pass 't over in
the silence it deserves.

The Republicans of Bradford are
quite competent to express their will
without any instructions. They may,
or-may not; have some man Or men
in particular whom they choose to
designate by their preference, fok the
positions to be filled. Should they
express their preference as concerns
men, their delegates will be instruct
ed to use all proper means to secure
their nomination. Tbey -may deem
it beat to instruct for good
_men, in
which case they will have to repose
a good deal of confidence in the
discretion of their eielegates.- But it
is probable that 'the e choice of the
Republicans of this county will be
individualized in the instructions.
They may - have a second choice also,
which should be expressed.. Nothing
should be left to chance. When the
time comes to elect delegates the
people should be summoned to as
semble and elect delegates to a coun
ty Convention. The delegates from
the election districts should go up to
the County Convention fully instruct:
ed, and they should' obey those in
structions.- It is only in this way
that the people can be made respon
sible. And they must be made re
sponsible. ,
The people are intelligent enough
to understand that everybody cannot
be suited under any circumstances
Some candidate will
. - succeed. His
success will involve the defeat of
others. Perhaps the Republicans i of
tbls county , may chance to Instruct
for the successful candidates. And
perhaps they may instinct for inme
who will not be nominated. But
having done their duty as they un
derstood it they will have discharged
their consciences. They will andel
stand that the Republicans of one
county cannot dictate the choice of
the R'epublicans of any other county.
Each county is competent to express
its choice, and if every county does
hat there will be_no cause of com
plaint that can be avoided. Go to
work. :Discuss men and methods.
And let your town-meetings repre
sent the masses.,

_THE GUITEAU TRIAL.
TUESDAY.
In the Gniteau case Tuesday the
10th inst., Judge Po - iter , concluded
the argument for the prosecution
tip9U the law points. Be' took oc•
casiOn to administer_ punishment to
Mr: Scoville for his insulting remarks
made in the course of the trial, and
spoke in stinging words of the assas
sin, w„°, he said, would soon feel a
"Divine pressure in the form of a
hangman's rope." He said that Gni
teau-was-so-D' confident of the gulli•
bility and rascality of mankind as to
believe that' men like Grant and
Conkling and Arthur-wciuld
the eriminel.” ()attest* interrubtel
Judge Porter frequently. He said
than be was ready to saer the con
sequences of his act, adding, "I think
the Lord has got it fixed 80 that the
consequences will not be very serious."
Justice Cox delivered his decisions
on the various , prayers of the prose
cution and of the defence, and the
Court was adjourned until Thursday.
THURSDAY.
An exciting scene marked the pro
ceedings in the Guitean -case Thurs
day, atter Mr. , Davidge, in opening
for the prosecution, had addressed
the jury for 'several hours.- The
(ideation to whether or not the as
sassin should be allowed to make a
speech was raised;and an animated
discuss:on, in which d uiteau and Jus
tice Coxi - as well as the counsel, took
part, followed: The ,District-Attor
ney, who was much excited, said that
the prisoner should not .leave the
flock without a proteit fittrin the pros
-ecution until a verdict was 'rendered.
The inference from. Justice Cox's re
marks is that he will allow Quiteau
to make a speech at the counsel ta
ble. Mr. Davidge, in his address to
the jury, analyzed the evidence for
the defence, and showed the absurdi
ts of the claim of temporary insanity.
FRIDAY.
Mr. Davidge finished hie — address
to the jury Friday. Mr. Davidge re•
viewed John W. Guiteau's testimony
at length, and dwelt 'upon the import
ance of the evidence given by the
experts on the question of the assa—
min's sanity. lie made - effective use
of the fact that •when the experts
whom the defence had , summoned
were placed 6p al the stand they were
asked a hypothetical question and
not their opinions as to the results
of their examination and observation
of the rrisoner. Guiteau interrupted
the proceeding s repeatedly. • '
SATURDAY.
Justice Cox Saturday announced
his decision not to permit. the assas i
sin to address the jury Guiteau was
greatly enraged, and for first. time
insulted. the Justice. Mr. Reed, of
Chicago, addressed the, jury for the
defence. He coTpared Guiteau's case
to those of Lawrence, Hadfield and
Oxford, and even to that of Charlotte
Corday, whom lie pronounced insane,
and whose- exeeution, he said, was a
lasting disgrace to the French \a
tlon: He strove to appear convinced
of Guiteau's insanity. "1 assert that
the conviction of this man to the gal
losis," he said, " and his execution,
would be an infamy beyond descrip
tion—an indelible _ stain on American
jurisprudence and . American juries "
:
The assassin said "Reed is a good
fellow, but would not give ,a cent a:
bushel for his rubbish., If I c'uld
only • have a talk with that jury I
would give them the right theory."

NEW YORK. Jan. 15.—The lull de
tails of the terrible disaster of Friday
night are gradually shaping- them
selves into a connected form, -and
it now appears, that the Chicago ex
press, with five-palace cars attached,
which should have left Albany at
2:40 P. at., did :not start till 3:03 r.
twenty three minutes late. , The pal
ace cars - Red Jacket, Minnehaha,
Saratoga, Empire - and Jdlewild, con
tainednearly all the 6'enators and
Assemblymen from-'this city 'and
Brooklyn. At 7:25 r. at. the train
entered the deep cut- alongside the
Harlem river- at Spuyten. Duyvil,
when the train came to a stop, cause
as it is now ascertained, by the give,
ing out of one of the plugs of th
auxillary,air - reservoir
_oh _mail car
N 0.678 of the Lake Shore ro - ad. • This
released the.spring-brake, and caused
the stoppage, as all the air pipes of the
car were connected. It then bee ime
necessary to " bleed " tho air-chamher
in which the spring was,so as-to take
off the pressure and let the train pro
ceed. While this, was being done
Conductor Hanford sent , Blakeman
George Melius with a red lantern - to
stop any train in tleTeir, but it wiliald
seem that he went back but. a short
distance. . .
About nine minutes after the stop
page he Tarrytown' train came along
at the rate of forty miles an hour,
and dashing into the Idlewild, cut
hrough it and burst into the Empire,
piling_up the debris of the 'rear car
on top of it. In a moment the over
turned stoves had 'ignited the wood
work, and the flames spread. along
the wreck, all other lights—having
been extinguished by the Shock.
Shrieks of agony. and cries for help
were heard on all sides, and the train
hands were wildly rushing about in
search of buckets And axes, but none
were to be found. The released pas
sengers were utterly unnerved and
for a time qttite unable to render any
aid. Meanwhile the people of the
neighbor holed had flocked to the scene,
eager to tend assistance, hut, with
the Harlem_river close at hand, there
were no vessels in which to bring wa
ter, and in despair the thin snow was
rolled into balls and thrown amid the
flames in the vain hope of extinguish
ing thcini; " - At; length - Axes—were-ob
tained, and desperate efforts were
made to break open the fiery priSon
from which human arms were appeal.
ingly stretched, but the heat was too
great for human endurance and the
horrified spectators were compelled
to witness their rellow beings roasted
to a crisp. The most tragic scene,
perhaps, was in connection with the
death of young Mr. Park
_Valentine
and his bride, the father of the groom
being compelled - to hear and see the
angti sh of his children, When the
extent of the'disaster could be ascer
tained it was found that eight human
beings had perished and a numberof
others had beensmore or less serious
ly injured.

Dr. TAYLOR'S lecture on Wednesday
evening was instructive. The design man
ifest in the human body, was scientifical
ly revealed unto us. ' The scope and !pur
pose of the-lecture was to prove from this
Standpoint the existence of GOD. The
;force &f the argument as presented by
him was immense. Let others bear it.
it disarms us of scepticism.

PIIY.SIVIANS• REGISTRY LAW AYR
_ IRREGULAR PRACTITIONERS.
There is a misapprehension in the
minds of many in regard to the force and
effects of the abovernamed law. Some
have the idea that-:f a person registers
as a doctor or doctress, that he or she is a
regular qualified physician. Tile fact is
any onecan register under the law who
either has a diploma '4.fronv 'a regularly
chartered medical college, or who can
swear on oath that he or she has been in
the practice of , medicine' as a business for
at least ten years. - -If a person, then, who
has not a diploma can swear strong
enou,,h, he or she can register, and all a
registry can de - for any person is to clear
them from the penalties 'imposed on all
under the lairTsrho practice without such
registry. - An irregular practitioner who'
registers under the law is. not exempt
from prosecution for melpractlce or other
regalia Of a must ofAnaliftestim' A ro;
Wit from the Prothonotary for tbe pay
ment at the registry fee ot_ one dollar;
which 4411 any MO bil°o l4 / 1 1 4 Gmao
as some who register withouL one some
times make peoAe L believe ; 't i le simply a
receipt tor mousy paid as a fel), and bears
no more relation to a diploma than a tax
receipt does to a commission': al major
general. The people ahon d understand
that the court cannot grant diplomas..

Christmas was celebrated at! the'
Church ina pleasant manner, the house
being. elegantly decorated for the occa
sion, and the music was exceptionally fine,
with the able Mrs. Troxell praidinfi at
tie organ.. Mr. Troxell gave ati
.3 resting address, and Mr. Oscar Webster
read a poem-to a crowded house. •
Ou the evening of January 3d, Mr. C.
Pierm and wife had been at the• Cou
nty flotno to a - mite society, and on re-' .
turning had put up his horse and gone to
the house, when he retumed:to the barn
to get some things left in the• wagon, and
in retnining again to the house, which is
s rme distance, he took a cross-lot direc
tion end when._ about mithray stepped
itto a slight ditch that caused him .to
br:n,.; the other fort sudienly 'orward to
rtvent a fall; and in doing so stepped on
a bit of ice slipping about a foot and ritrik- .
ing.solid breaking both bones of his right
leg near the ankle and one of the bone
some inches higher up . and below the
knee. His Wife having waited, for him a
sufficient length of time went ha_ see what
bad becoine of him, and found him as
above. Mr. Pierce being a heavy man,
something more than two hun
dred pounds,' it was necessary toget some
help, and the neighbors from both sides
were. summoned to: the scene, .when the
oxen were - got up hitched to a sled; and
thus-they victim was removed to his house.
Dr. G.' P. Thrcy, the celebrated bone ad
piker Was; summoned,.. and under the
skillful treatment of that physician, - Mr.
Pierce is happily at this time, on the high
- road to a speedy. vecovery.

Last week's event was the musical con
vention, held in the M. E. Church; under
direction of Professor L. W.'Towner, 'of
Rome, assisted by his daughter, Miss Jes
se, as organist.. The exercises through
the week were harmonious and profitable..
Professor Towper is master of his art;
and no one can find the warm side of the
Litchfield folks as well as
,_ he. Genial,
thoroUgh in his instructions, taking al
ways a lively -interest in the welfare of
his patrons, our people long since found
Oat he is a man'safe to tie to.

On Friday evening, occurred the clos
ing exercises, Concert. The music sung
was all new to the class and as rendered
at the concert, asvwell relished by a large
and appieciative vudience. Rev. 11. G.
Blair; pastor 44 the yd. E. Church, and
Dr. L. Morse being• . called upon at the
- close of the cxercises,lmade short speech
es' in appreciation of the work 4:ccom

of memories awakened by some of the
pieces sung.
A. D. Mutin has been quite ill, but is
much better now. •

It is said that the. Odd Fellows; when
they met lasts, Monday evening,: brought
with them sundry provisions, meat, flour,
butter, money, etc., to the amount of
