thud* to Injury.
The Montrose Repullican of last week
contains the following extract :
The Boston Journal radishes a very
sensible article on political corruption.—
It deproTes the fact that in many respects
the public . business of the country is
wretchedly transacted, and that a 'low
standard of service in every department is
established. It also points out that the
reforms now talked of will not correct
the evil, and that, indeed, nothing will
repair it short of a great change in the
t imen t of the people on the subject. It
is all theist Cult, sayif our cotemporary.
" and in this respect, that they do not
bring:theiPreal stock of honesty and prin
ciple to bear actively and constantly up
on the political deb artment of our Amer
ican M.' The writer goes on to say that
the desired change will be witnessed some
day, and tie Press and the Pulpit ought
to work bard to prepare fur it.
Is not the above sample of, Radical leg
erdemain one of the most barefaced in
sults that could be perpetrated upon the
people ? When the rascality of the Radi
cal press, party leaders, and executive offi
cers, who have foisted themselves into
power by falsehood, plunder of the peo
ple's treasury, bayonets, and every species
of political - villainy that the depraved
heart is tibinpeteut to invent, and when
their hypocrisy is clearly unveiled in plain
view of the people, then to charge the
people with all the dishonesty and claim
that they are accountable fur this condi
tion of things.
We admit that many who have follow
ed the bebk and nod of Radical.leaders
might have done better for themselves
and the country to have stuck to the pure
principles of Democracy, yet Radicalism
gained the power by dcception in the
holding out to the people one thing, and
immediately upon obtaining that power,
deserting every principle and profession
previously made; the leaders resolving up
on maintaining their rule at all hazards,
and they have 'prostituted every function
of the government, financial, civil, milita
ry, legislative, executive and judiciary, to
bring about that end.
1:pon the Radical leaders, and upon
them only, lies the responsibility of all the
corruption that exists among the people,
as their constant policy has been to pay a
price for it, and upon it they have lived
thus far, but a great retribution from an
ea tinged people is fast overtaking them.
In Iv country like ours under Radical
rule, where treason alone consists in re
sistance to the government by armed
Corec, the dungeon and death has stared
men in the face for entertaining adverse
opinions to the powers that be, and every
persecution that )1 u man ingenuity could
invent has been brought to bear to stifle
the honest voice of the masses, and hu
man weakness has yielded too often to its
power, but the cause philosophically con
sidered is greater than the effect,
hence the Radical rulers are responsible.
What can be more insulting than for the
Radical press, which has been a tool in '
the hands of the leaders to build up cor
ruption, to flee from their own shadow,
and charge it upon the people.
We do trot wonder that Gen. 'Omit
" has lost all confidence in human na
ture," having such associations as he has
had. The people have lost all confidence
in him. Well may they'say that a change
is necessary and must come, and those
who live to breathe the air of 18:2 will
experience it, by a glorious return to Dem
ocratic rule, which will clot-c up the av
enues of popular corruption.
Subscribing for Newspapers.
The following from the Post of Pitts
burg, one of the ablest and leading jour
nals of the State, contains pungent nod',
and should be considered and acted upon
by all who desire local prosperity,and who
,Risk to reap the advantages of loral
knowledge, and the benefit of an indis
pensible medium to advance their moral,
financial, and political interests, whose
ialue cannot be counted in the paltry
tram of two dollars a ear. As one of our
subscribers said to us the other day that
" a single paper, had often proved to him
of more pecuniary advantage than the
cost of a whole year's subscription," be- ,
ride the large amount of useful family
reading. There is a moral obligation for'
value received, resting upon every one to
sustain his local paper, as he is ton-stout
ly enjoying its business, intellectual, and
political advantages, We hope our read
ers will call the attention of their neigh
bors to the following truth, at.d we hope
all who have not, will immediately
act upon its teachings.
" We frequently reed% letters from our
patrons, enquiring 'Oat newspaper we
would reconunend them to take, 6:e. Our
advice is uniformly this: First subscribe
for your county paper; it first of all oth
re deserves your patronage, and should
::ot be forgotten. Besides furnishing you
v ith a continued chronicle of all hval
events of importance, it gives a character
and standing to your county which is
precisely in proportion to the flourishing
or non flourishing condition of your
county and which eau never be at
tainedwithout its aid..
It encourages home enterprise and tal
ent, and affords an honorable sirbsist
ence t o worthy men, to liberally support
your local paper, which not only 'lo o k s
after your home interest, but gives to the
world a t "mplete idea of all your natural
and acquired atirantages and business

W - Sotue of our Radical friends, who
take the Montrose Republican, are en
quiring of us what the news is from the

" Speak and let the worst be known
Speaking may relieve you."
A New Amendment
The Indiana Democrat suggests that
the word " White" he struck out of the
nest speukership of the Pennsylvania
senate. ,
Will Grant Shoot the Deserter'', or
will they Ctilbier html
The debate in the senate on the San
Domingo affair took such a turn that •if
there was ever au occasion when a Prtdi
dent might claim that his political and
personal friends were bound to stand by
I him without flinching, this was that occa
slop. Thus tested, what does the record
show? There are hi the Senate sixty-two
members who are bound by party ties
and the circumstances of their election
to sustain a republican President. For
his pet scheme, to carry which under the
I specious pretence of a congressional in
(miry Grant had laid himself out to the
I utmost, he got only thirty-one of the six
ty-two
votes, or precisely one half. Where ;
were the remaining half? One was sick,
one had just resigned, two paired off five
had the courage to vote against the presi
dential measure, and twenty-two dodged
' the vote. Half of the New 'England del
egation abandoned Grant, incluiling such
conspicuous republicans as Wilson. An
dimly, Buckingham and Ferr y . Where.
in tills trying hour, were Fenton, Cat :
Cameron, Trumbull and Harlan, with
utter r magnates of the party in the cen
tral and wt stern states.' They deserted
the President: a- did also half a dozen of
the most influential n•publicrns from the
former s'aveholding status. ,
That C mitt will try to bring to the
block the tire senators who were bold
enough to rote arminst him, the Nt'W
York Sun thinks there is no doubt_ But
what will he do with the twenty-two who
dodged ? Will he call them np to be shot
as deserters? General Grant's experience
in the army must have taught Min that
shooting is a game that two can play at. ,
Then what will he do with these desert
ers? Will lie drum them out of the re-'
public-an camp, or will they combine to
take from hint his sword at the close of
his present term of office? The issue is
made up, and it cannot be evaded.

THE STEPIIENTOWN HORROR—WAS IT
A. CASE OF RETI2IIII:TIVE JUSTICE ?—From
an officer of the county who resides in
the vicinity of the place where the recent
murder in Stephentown occurred, and
who has known the Kittle family from
his boyhood, we learn some traits in the
character of the old man who was mur
dered by his son which induces us to ask
the question. whether Asa's act was not
after all one of retributive justice on the
part of high Maven? The old man was
the cause of his son's .blindness. When
Asa was only two weeks old the father
returned one day to his home in a state
of intoxication. He was cross and qnar
relsome as he always was when in that
condition, and approaching the bed where
the mother and Mutt lay he seized the
baby by one of its legs and deliberately
threw it out of a window! It struck up
pon his forehead; the conenssion forced
theieve-bails from their sockets, and they
rolted out upon the cheeks of the little
innocent thing, which was ferever after
wards to grope Eightkss through the
world. If we did not believe that God is
a loving human being and looks with a
pitying and forgiving eye upowthe frailties
of mortality, we should say that He bad
raised Asa up to be his avenger, and had
directed the pistol in the hands of the
blind son to kill his cruel and inhuman
father. The same authority informs us
of other cruelties performed by the old
man. Another sou was crippled for life
by hint by a kick in the hack. On anoth
er occasion the old maw had traded horses
with a neighbor. Finding that he bad
got the worst of the bargain, he desired
to exchange horses back again. The
other party would not consent, and while
his horse was standing in a shed at the
village tavern, the monster went out and
with his knife ripped open its abdomen
and let its bowels out upon the ground !
Was it too much to expect that some day
the hand of punishment would be laid
upon u creature walking in God's Image,
and yet so passionate, brutal and mon

Another Richmond Disaster
Richmond seems to be peculiarly the
victim of untoward fate and dire calami
ties. It was bat a few months ago since
the full of the State HOUR' involved scores
of people in a harrilde death. O Christ
mas morning another horror was added
to the list in the burning of the Spotts
wood House, in which nearly or quite a
dozen persons were consumed, and a
number more or less injured. A gentle
man who was present, informs us that
the tire burned with wonderful rapidity
and swept through the halls from rear to
front with terrifying fort,. His room
was on the officefloor and he had barely
time to dress and escape film it after the
alarm was gben. ,
