The frost appears to have done effective
work of destruction throughout western
and norther i Pennsylvania.
If there is any place where honesty
should have been sacred it is under the
sacred seal of the Patent office, but even
a patent cannot preserve it. It has been
discovered that the Chief Examiner is
guilty of the worst kind of offenses, such
as tampering with letters patents, taking
bribes, &c. There is kit Utile hope when
the Patent Office gives way.
There seems to be a much more pacific
feeling in Europe than th'ere was a week
ago, and there is every prospect that the
horrors of •a general war are to be spared
the people of Europe. Yet no one can
tell what a week or even a day may bring
forth from the inquietude of the Europ
ean nations.

"PUP.F.C'
At the lat- meeting of the Radical
Prohibition County Committee,the follow
ing r,s ,, lulicu. ,, lfered by K B. Beardslee,
esq.. of Little Meadows. was unanimous
lv adopt, d :
let , solved, That the Republican County
Committee of Susquehanna county are
unanimously opposed to the "Third Term
principle," and that our Delegates are in
tructed to oppose any action in our State
Convention that would in any way ap
prove of a third term of the Presidency
for any man.
If this is intended for General Grant
it is certainly a very proper m. ye for a
Prohibition committee to take.for if they
can by this action prevent the re-election
of Gratit for another term, they will have
bone more to stop the .rule of whiskey in
his country than apy'•other set of men
who ever assembled in a like capacity.—
But, from past experience, the people
won't have full faith in this resolve, fo:
they remember that platforms and reso
lutions are very cheap things among Ring
politicians. Grant is not a candidate in
the convection which meets in May. next,
but Ilartranft, is, and we venture to say
that errry one of these "Third Term"
opposers will vote for a second term of
liartrauft because he signed the senate
"prohibition" license bill in furtherance
of the "Grand Resolve" of Chase's, con
vention last year, and they will carry out
the nprineiples" of their third term reso
hlLloll ou Grant next year in the same
manner. The Court House Ring in this
county may have immortalized its name
iu the future history of this country by
this very resolution, and also have se
cured the election of their nominees for
Sheriff, Judge, etc., etc., this fall, which,
by the way, is what it was done for.—
They have about all the load they can
carry of their own in this county without
taking on Grout this fall, and you know
there will be time enough to stop and
take h.tn on board before 1876. They
have come to this conclusion that, suf
ficient for the day is the evil thereof.—
Well, we guess they are about right.
OUR SOCIAL EVIL
Judge Finletter deserves credit fur
speaking out plainly and boldly in his
charges to the jury in the Perpente case
upon the frightful crime for which the
defendants in this case were indicted.—
The subject !sone that people d 3 not gen
erally like to talk about. They have a
vague idea that the crime is terribly prev
alent, and occasionally, when the evil is
forced upon their attention by some case
like the present, they demand that some—
thing be, done to check if ; but no one
cares to go very deep. into the stibjeckend
the few who venture- to speak plainly np•-
on it must expect to be rebuked by the
many who think that crime may be aba
ted by covering it up and assuming igno
rance of it. And all this time poison is
at work, weakening and threatening
death to our social system. Abortion
and infanticide grow every year more
common, and men and wo.nen carry on
their work of death more boldly and open
ly. The very newspapers that enter many
homes contain the flaunting advertise
ments of professional abortionists, and
scarcely a week passes that these papers
do not record the death of some poor,
foolish woman, who has, in sacrificing
the life of her offspring by the vile act of
I these people, paid the penalty with their
own. But nothing is done. We have
laws enough, but they have never been
enforced. Arrests are made, but prose
cutions have not followed. The abortion
ists' trade has enjoyed au actual immunity
if not a virtual protection, and its terri
ble results have grown more apparent
from day to day. It would not be proper
1 . 01 U 8 to express an opinion now, even
if we were so disposed, upon the case
which has been on trial during the past
week ; bat we welcome the vigor of the
prosecution as au evidenoe that the crime
of abortion ie not hereafter to be passed
over by the representatives of the com•
monwealth. Yet it is idle to ignore the
fact that the law, with its utmost rigor.
can reach but a little way in grappling
with this great social evil. It may reach
many of the professional
and, by driving them to greater secrecy,it
may diminish the number of their vic
tims. But the crime of foeticide is not
confined to those whom we call the un
fortunate and the outcast ; it is not re•
sorted to only to cover or escape the con
sequence of illicit passion. The case is
far worse than as, and we only tempor•
ize with crime in preteuding to shut our
eyee to it. So-called reformers may give
as reason and excuses without number,
and we would not have society shut its
ears to what they say ; but still the awful
fact remains that human lives are daily
sacrificed to selfishness, and the pride and
glory of maternity is becoming obsolete
among us. This is the real evil, that we
have to meet. It is undermining the
whole social fabric of this country, the
safety of the family, the sacredness of
married life, and weakening every moral
bond that holds society together. We
must not, dare not shut our eyes to it, or
cease the battle against it with every
weapon that knowledge, civilization, re
ligion or law will put into our hands.—

PROHIBITION IN RHODE IS
LAND.
The State of Rhode Island has added
another to the all eady numerous proofs of
the impossibility of executiug a law which
shall be absolutely prohibitory of the sale
of intoxicating drinks as a beverage.—
During the administration of Goverucr
Howard the system of the State censtab
nlary, in connection with the prohibitory
law, was given probably as fair a tnat as
it could receive anywhere. The State is
small and compactly settled,and the diffi
culties in the way of the action of the
State authorities, which would have been
fond in the larger States,were comparative
ly unknown. There is no cause to doubt
the perfect fairness and discretion with
which the Governor strove to execute the
law. He went about it, simply determin•
ed to put the statute iu force because it
was the law. He was not disposed to
evade it for political purposes, as he had
no desire to cont.nne in public life. He
was not influenced in his action by any
&magma belief in or devotion to the
cause of prohibition. The law in• his
hands was sure not only of fair play, but
of judicious and friendly administration
It is tberefore,no fault of any one, except
of human nature in general, and. the
very necessity of things, that the law has
never been executed, but has kept the
State in turmoil ever since it was passed.
We think no one wiill asssert that it has
even checked the sale and consumption
of ardent spirits iu the State. It has,
perhaps, made it a little more difficult for
the average loafer to get his dram.—
Some of his old haunts have been broken
up ; and the new ones which have taken
their place keep up a little semblance of
secrecy. But no one who knows any
thing of the habits of a drinking man
will say that a slight difficulty in the way
of his getting his dose will reform him.
Obstacles only render it more precious.—
A. well-informed writer, speaking of the
result in Providence, has said that where
one shop closed its front door, a down
opeted their back doors half way. A
still worse result was in giving to those
who were not habitual drinkers the
temptation held out by secrecy and the
delight of defying a law. Hundreds of
drinking clubs sprang up everywhere
which would never have existed but for
the statute. A few dozen men would hire
a room, store in it a demijohn or two,
and each would purchase a key, and go
there as lie chose, charging himself to a
book kept for the purpose for whatever
he took. Young men, who never would
have entered a public barroom, found it
very amusing to indulge with casual ac
quaintances in this furtive entertainment.
many belong to several clubs in different
parts of the city, and it became a cheap
sort of distinction for frivolous youths to
accumulate these club keys on their
watch chains. The worst of this viola
tion of law was that everybody was con.
stious of it, and there is no more injur
ious moral poison for a community than
this consciousness on the one side of
laws disregarded, and on the other of of
fences unpunished. A. similar situation
of things was once described in CkohlteC.,
tient as "agreeable to everybody;. • thei
temperance men had- ttieir law, and the
whiskey Men had their rum: ' This bit-1

inent officials, might easily have brought
an the most important cOmplicatiouss
and even resulted iu bloodshed. The
simple truth was that the law was not
sustained by the public opinion, and the
charge of its violation, eitner by private
citizens or by the Peden.' authorities did
not produce upon the public mind that
salutary shook which is the safeguard of
law in a democratic country.
At the recent State election Mr. Lippit,
the Republican candidate, who was sus
tained by the Anti-Prohibitionists, failed
of election by reason of a bolt of Inde
pendent Republicans, reinforced by the
Prohibitionists. The election of Gov
eraor therefore devolved upon the Legis
lature. But, for the same reason, the
Legislature was in doubt, a large num
ber of districts having failed to elect.—
Last week, however, these districts held
a second election, which seems to have
resulted in the success of enough candi
dates on the regular ticket, supported by
the anti prohibition interest, to secure
Mr. Lippitt's election and the repeal of
the State constabulary and prohibition
laws. It is to be hoped that this Legis•
lature. when it comes together, will show
that it has learned something by the ez•
periments of the last year or two. A
large mbjority of the people of the State
deplore the evils of i n tovor..ance, and
are in favor or -.ery practicable means to
and restrain as far as possible
ie traffic and the use of intoxicating
liquors. In every such measure, founded
upon reason, the law-makers may be sur•
of the sympathy and support of the pop
ulatioii. They will make a great mistake
if they imagine that the late election is
a declaration against the cause of tem
perance. It is simply a public acknowl
edgment of two facts—first, that a pro
hibitory law cannot be executed, and
second, that a law which is not executed
is un unmixed evil.— Tribune.
Uncle Billy Objects to Civil Rights.
I "interviewed" Uncle Billy, a good
colored friend of mine, the other day, ou
the question of civil rights.
"Don't want puffin mo," said Uncle
Billy. "Got too much already fur die
niarrete"
"How is that, Uncle Billy ? is it not
a good thing to be equal before the law ?'
"Now, Marse Bose," grunted Billy,
plaintively, 'dar's just whar de misery
comes in. We're dial bete' de law an'
dar yer hit our weak pint. Befo' de law,
of niggah stole chicken an' pig,yer jerked
him up, guy him thirty-nine lashes an'
let him go. But just let a cullud pussou
try it now ! Yer hauls him 'fore court
and stick's him to de penitentiary just like
he was one of yer pour white trash.—
Dat's what 'tis to be ekal 'fore de law !'
1 suggested to Uncle Billy that this
might be obviated by being a little more
holiest.
'Marie Boss,' interrupted Billy, "we
can't run agin natur. Its nat'ral fur
niggah to steal pig and chicken,fryin size.
Yer know it is, au 'taint no use tryin'to
stop us. Now, we une are to let
you uns alone.and you all jist lotus alone
on this pint We're powerful week on
dis pint, Boss,"
Just here a perverse and disloyal spirit
tempted me to hint to Uncle Billy that
the colored people were indebted to their
Republican. friends for this change in their
status.
"Well, den, Marse Boss," "all ise got to
say is, de law's got to be changed. Mug'
hab a law for de white man and a law for
de black man."
Strange as it seems, some of our best
citizens echo Uncle Billy's sentiment—.
They are inclined to view the negro's
minor transgressions in a lenient light,
and I know that some of our Democratic
judges impose lighter penalties upon col
ored men for small offences than they
would do in cases where the guilty par
ties were white.
Before Uncle Billy left I asked - him
bow he would like to sit down at the ta
ble with white folks at the hotels.
'Great Goddlernighty !' exclaimed the
good old man. 'I allow yousu tryin' to
make fun o' dis chile. Why, you knows
yourself dat no maid !meson ebber lets
a white man see 'ern eat if day kin help
it.'
This is strictly true. The ordinary
Southern negro will not eat in the pres—
ence of a white spectator.
'Well, Uncle Billy,' I said, 'it is very
evident that you don't want any civil
rights.'
'Nut anytlng mo,' I tank you,' replied
Billy. 'Ntarly done ruined now. Hay
to pay my own doctor's hills; lost all my
money in the Freedmen's Bank; nebber
got no forty acres an' de mule dey prom—
ised me; an' can't help myself to a little
chicken, fryin size, widout gwine to de
penitentiary. Fee gut 'Duff cibbil
rights !'
The above is no preduction of the fancy
It is a true incident, honestly told and it
is impossible to talk to the country ne•
groes without hearing just such things as
I have related.
A Dead aty.
The New York Herald, commenting
upon the assertion of Senator Morton
that New Orleans was a dead city, asps:
New Orleans is one of the most inter
eating of our cities. It has a continental
quality that none of the others possess.—
Its i oota extend into other soils than the
Cavalier or the Puritan. New Orleans
French in its origin, and at one time un -
der the control of the Spaniard, has al
ways shown the influence of France and
of Spain. There is something of Paris
in the sprigtliness and taste of the peo
ple; in the merriment, which makes Sun
day a feast day and not a day of fasting ;
in the Carnival and Mardi Gras. Every
street in the old city recalls the glory of
the Bourbon or the ambintion of. the
Bonaparte. Before the war it was a prod
igal luxurious metropolis. The planters
looked upon a winter visit to New Or.
leans as a recompense for a hard season's
work in the cotton field and sugar house.
The Mississippi poured its treasures into
its lap. It was the entreptit of Mexico
and Cuba and Texas. There was. no city
to cbaaenge its dominion but Mobile, for
Galveston was a little seacost town that
was scarcely known in the himilies of cit
ies. Alone, therefore, far distant from
the other. ruling Cities, mistress of the
Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi, New
Orleans rapidly strode along, and before

population as any. city in . the Republic.
Even now New -Orleans is ninth in. the.
list of cities, if we may take he figures
of the census of 1870. It then reported
191.000. .population and 33,659 dwellings
—something more than San Feancisco
and less than Cincinnatii The latest au

-cotton cr0p,1872-73 was a hundred thou;
sand bales larger than the year before the
war. The total value of the imports in
New Orleans for the same year was more
- than one hundred millions and the ex=
ports over six hundred millions. More
than one—third of the-. cotton. passed,
through New Orleans. This is a source
of enormous wealth alone. It is hard to
think a city should be dead, or in any
appreheneions rf death, that sends out
from its ports more, than six hundred
inilliona df dollars a year.
The Herald. after giving some of the
reasons why the trade of Nrtv Orleans
should full off, adds: New Orleans may
suffer a temporary depression, bat there
are elements of strength and glory about
the'old town which cannot be destroyed.

The Pulmonlc Syrup ripens the morbid mat

matter is ripe a slight cough will throw It off,
the patient has zest and the lungs begin to
heal.To enable the Pulinottie Syrup to do this,

composed, mixes with the food and prevents
