Tim Democratic party it loud in
rlatnnr over the revelation of corruption
in Congress and elsewhere. It is true
that the amount of corruption revealed j
both startling and humiliating to every
man who desires the perpetuity of inti'g
rity among men, and the socnntr of free
government among onr people.
The Republican party being iu power,
the public corruption (has far revealed
excepting in New Yik. where the Dem
ocracy are in power has been chit fly
en fined to its rank.
The public corruption at Washington
is being investigated. Just how many
Congressmen and Senators will be ruined
in reputation by the Credit Mobilier case
cauoot now be told. Time will tell.
Senator Caldwell's case has not jet
been disposed of. lie may as well strap
Lis valise and go bora The country has
lost confidence in him. Senator Pomu
rny for his bribery is as dead as an ex
tim-t volcano. The. case of J. J. Fatter
son is yet to be tried. It is hoped, for
the credit of Juniata, that the Colonel is
not guilty of the charges preferred
i-gnitiet him If reports concerning tlin
rase be true, the certainty of his reach
ing the place is not established.
While grave ff. nccs against law and
honorable transactions among men have
been committed Ly Republicans, it is the
Republican party that had had the integ
rity to institute investigation against its
dishonorable members. If the Krpubli
e.tn party has nut strength enough to
break up the rings of plundering thieves
that have taken shelter within its orgatii
z itiun. then indeed is the state of public
affairs deplorable. The Democratic party
cannot be trusted. It is but a few years
ago since it sought the life of the nation
iu the iuterest of class rule.
Let the honctt Republican stand tin-
dismayed, and await their opportunity, !
and when it arrives strike down the men :
who would debauch their organization j
and bring ruin and disgrace on all.
Mrs Wood ti ill and Tenny 0. Gaff
liu have i.-sued auother number of their
Journal. With'int saying a word of the
lives of these women for of that we know
nothing more than is gleaned from the
general talk, which to say the least is very
ut:rt liable we must, however, say that
if wecomptehend their teaching, it would
certainly sensuralize men and women,
destroy the present order of family rela
tinnship, break up the home circle, sever
the ties of parents children and relatives.
We are not by any means certain though
that we do fully understand their posi
tion on the social and marital questions,
but as far as we see it, it appears like the
worst of poisous.
Tub Ilarrisburg correspondent of the
Philadelphia Inquirer, under date of the

about the Legislature chamber as follows :
' The House to-day passed a resolution
forbidding the use of intoxicating liquors
in the chamber and committee rooms and
baniehing all bottles other than ink bot
tles from the cloak room. A few days
go "the ardent'' was driven from the
Senate cloak room by the growl of Sena

LETTER FBOX HAKRKBCB6.
Harrisbdro, Feb. 1, 1S73.
Editor Sentinel: As your readers
know, Governor Hartranft has assumed
the duties of his office. They do not,
however, all know how be astonished
the politicians by the appointment of
Hon, Samuel E. Diromick, of Wayne
county, as Attorney General, it having;
been believed by that potential class of j
individnals that that office would be filled
by either H n. Wayne McVeigh or Hon.
Win. II. Armstrong. The aoootntment
of Dimmick is a strong one and meets
with general approval, satisfying alike
all shades of Republicans.
The appointment of Col. M. S. Quay,
of the Beaver Rwlieal, as Secretary of
the Commonwealth is also favorably re
ceived, particularly by the press of the
State, it, with one or two exceptions,
having emphatically endorsed him. It is
a high compliment to the Colonel, and
will not be lost on him There is a quiet
unassuming dignity about the man that
attracts attention and inspires respects.
His ability is abundant to fill the place,
and he has the reputation of being one of
the most astute diplomatists within the
limits of the Commonwealth. I predict
for him a successful and honorable career
in his new place, and the eucoiiiitms of
the people extended voluntarily and as
loudly upon him at the end of his term
aa they have been extended to Colonel
Francis Jordan, the courteous, able and
honest Secretary of State under ex-Governor
Geary's administration.
The appointment of Maj. A. W. Nor
ris as Piivate Secretary is a creditable
one. The Major is deserving. Laving
done good service on the field of battle,
and in the recent political campaign was
one of our most active workers.
Few changes, so far, have been made
in the departments under the direct con
trol of the Governor. Those yet to
make will be made slowly and with great
care. Argus stands by with her hun
dred eyes, watching every change, noting
whether it be for the better or worse.
Never iu the history of the country were
the acts of public men so scrutinized.
This critical scrutiny arises from the
lamentable circumstance of the fall and
utter overthrow of the reputation of
scores of prominent and able public men.
who in their prosperity sought their own
aggrandizement at the expense of their
people. They are stranded for life, and
will die the death of the political hulk.
I shall give the Governor credit for every
good appointment, lieing an admirer
and friend of his, of course I shall not
play the part of a flatterer by glossing
over bad appointments, if he makes any.
I shall speak of them aa the case merits.
This, too, is our duty in the vocation of
a correspondent We, however, appre
hend no such unpleasant duty, for the
past bix years of official life of Governor
Hartranft proves him a man of discern
ment, ability, firmness and unflinching
integrity. We predict for him a brighter
and more ably conducted administration
than this Commonwealth has had for
years
Both Houses of the Legislature have
adjourned over until Monday evening.
Nothing of importance for the State has
yet been done. The bill most talked of
here is the one asking for an appropria
tion of a million of dollars for the Cen
tennial exhibition at Philadelphia, on the
4th of July, 1S76. People have opposed
it because they think it is an enterprise
to the removal of the State buildings to
Philadelphia.
A flood of local bills have been steadi
ly flowing in since the opening of the
Legislature, many of which have been
read in place. Your members have Lad
noth ing important before their respective
bouses, excepting the repeal of the Juni
ata county printing bill. It passed both
houses and is in tbe hand of the Gov
ernor. Dr. Crawford read a petition
praying that the sale of liquor on election
j days be prohibited for 21 hours inttead
j of 12 hours, as the law now requires,
j He was incorrectly reported in a number
of the daily papers as having presented
a petition fur Juniata county asking for
the repeal of the Local Option Law.
The mistake was promptly corrected in
the papers that made it, but not before a
number of county papers Lad got hold of
the mistake, aud justly opened their bat
teries, on the mythical petitioners. If it
had been true, Juniata would have
gained an unenviable notoriety.
A resolution was passed in both the
Senate and House prohibiting.tbe use of
spiritr.us liquors in or about the halls of
the Senate or House. It is an ugly crit
icism on the habits of the members to
place such a resolution among the records
of the Legislature ; yet it is necessary,
for their habits are becoming known.
They mutt improve them, or have theirj
lunntJice as moral ana decent men
tirely destroyed. Of course there
always some true"' men here who
are
are
souud on these questions.
The local option law passed last session,
and on which your people will have an
opportunity to vote in March, cannot be
repealed by the present Legislature, as
many supposed.
Next week I will send you a list giving
the number of officers iu the different
departments on the bill here, and the
salary each officer receives.
Yours, &c . STRANGER.

Cawtala Jack's War.
THR LATKST BATTLE WITH THB M0D0C8.
Ysika, Cal. Jan. 29. The entire
force of Modoc Indiana attacked Captain
Bernards eamp about daylight on Sat-
; urday, the fight lasting several hours.
About one hundred men were engaged
on each side, but Captain Bernard's tac-
tics 'he being an old Indian fighter)
were successful in saving his men even
from beine- wonnded. General G'llem
arrived on Tuesday, and will uke com
. mand of all the forces against the Wo
docs. The great de lay in getting stores
, to the troops is occasioned by the team'
sters emoloved bv the day lefusine to
i a
travel only cert tin distances daily. Gen
era! Gillem will start on Wednesday to
interview the teamsters and give them
certain number of days to accomplish
their job.
Sax Fbanci-sco, Jan. 20. A move
ment is on foot to send Elijah Steele, i
urotniuent lawyer and an old resident of
Yreka, and other citizens unarmed to
Captain Jack. Gillem will leave Yreka
to-day for Fuirtbild's camp. He announ
ces his determination to attack the Mo-
docs as soon as reiuforcemeuts arrive
Sam Francisco, Jan. 31. News from
the camp of Captain Jack is that he is
auxinus to have a ''big talk," looking to
wards peace n-g uiatious. A squaw re
ports that in the recent fijlit many of
: the Modoca were killed and wounded iu
the lava beds. Aftvr the fight lbs Iu
dians q barreled because Captain Jack
did not light, during which one of the
Indians shot Captain Jack through the
arm. Captain Jack has inviled Dorris
and Fairchild to come to him for a talk.
General Gillem joined Throckmorton's
command iu the Shasta Valley to day.
The Indians have one hundred beef cat
tie in camp, there being an abuudance of
grass to feed them, and they cannot be
starved out for months. Dorris and
Faiichild go to day to the place designa
ted by Captain Jack for the conference.
San Francisco, Feb. 2. Little pros
pect exists of any peaceable adjustment
of the Modoc difficulties. Last Thurs
day Fairchild and Dorris and several
others went, by invitation of Captain
Jack, to have a big talk. The place
agreed upon was the top of a high hill
overlooking the lava bed. They were
accompanied by Squaw Dixie. She
went to Captain Jack and told him if he
wanted to talk he must go to the top of
the hill, and he would meet Fairchild and
Dorris there. Captain Jack would not
go, and said he wanted the whites to
come to the camp, which they refused to
do.
Jack said they must come half way,
but Faiichild refused again, and sent
word to Captain Jack to come to bis
camp within two days, or if not he must
fight again. General Gillem's command
is half way over the mountains, and will ,
reach headquarters on Tuesday. Noth
ing has been heard from the Camp Gas
ton company. The snow was deep on
the roads leading to the lava bed, but did
not obstruct the march of the troops
much. In the last fight of the Modoce
with Bernard's company the Indians did
not throw away their gnna, but lost all
their horses.
On the 29th nit the Kansas Legisla
ture elected John J. Ingalls a United
States Senator. Senator Pomeroy was
the chief competitor, and attempted to
win the place by the use of money. A
State Senator named York held several
interviews with Pomeroy aud got his
plans and then exposed him in opeu joint
convention. York said in a special, the
first interview I bad was on Friday night
when several persons were present, and
during which the matter was discussed.
The second was private, at the solicitation
of Pomeroy, on Monday, night. At this
Pomeroy offered lim York SS.C00 for
his vate $3,000 cash, $5,000 on Tues
day, and the remainder on Thursday.
York accepted the offer and took ti,
000 Tuesday afternoon. He met Pom
eroy again by agreement, and received
the $5,000 promised. He then produ
ced a roll of baukr bills from his pocket,
and said : "Here is the $7,000 p iid ti
me by Pomeroy, which now desire I to
place in the hands of the president of
this joint convention."
At the conclusion of Mr. York's speech
a motion was made for a recess until 5
P. M., to give Pomeroy an opportunity to
defend himself, which was defeate d by a
large majority, and a motion to proceed
immediately to ballot for . Senator was
carried amidst great excitement.
Immediately after the adjournment a
complaint was entered in court against
Senator Pomeroy on the charge of bri
bery, and he was arrested and gave bail
in 85 000 to appear on Friday.
Despatches under date of the SOth
say : The exposure effected Pomeroy to
such a degree that he was suddenly la
ken very sick Further deposits of bribe
mouey have been made, it is said, with
the Secretary of the Senate to-day to
the amount of S6200. It is stated that'
the money was paid in by members of
the Legislature who received it from
Pomeroy, but their names have not been
disclosed.
The latest dispatch relative to Pomeroy
have it that be is lying very low with
brain fever.
The skeleton that Captain Hall some
time ago dug up in the Arctic regions,
has been sent to England. It is that of
a man five feet eight inches tall. One
of the teeth is filled with gold.
There is a great deal of corn remain
ing in the fields of Kansas ungathered.

"BOSS TWEED STILL FREE.
THE BSD OF TBK GREAT TRIAL.
From Friday evening's Sew York Post
This morning the excitement was in
tense iu and around the Court of Oyer
and Terminer. The new court-house
was thronged with politicians of all
grades. Ruffians were there a rough look
ing, ill clad men, with savage, beer-sod
den faces-all anxious so far as they could
feel any anxiety on a public question,
obout the result When the dors were
thrown open men pushed each other
about, crushed and fought as if their
lives depended upon their getting into the
court-room. If Tweed's life had depend
ed apon tbe-werdict there could not have
been more interest exhibited. Even wo
men, some of them frail and delicate,
fought, if such aa Irishism may be per
mitted, manfully amongst the rest, and
exhibited as such determination as the
stronger sex.
The court room was a sight never to
be forgotten. Every inch of room was
oconpied. A sea of anxious faces turned
upward toward the bench. The murmur
of -voice wijta:eteant. What will the
verdict be ? Will the "Boas" be convic
ted ? Will he be sent to Sing Sing I Wil!
he be convicted at all I Has any one of
the jurors been bought 1 Is" all Lis old
influence dead I Is there enough purity
it New York to convict htm I Is it pos
sible that he is innocent after all ? Will
the clever subterfuges of his counsel
avail ? These are a few, and only a few
of the questions which each man asked
his neighbor. Each man, it must be re
membered, whether honest or theft, felt
a direct interest in the answers. At last
the time for the opening of the court ar
rived, the hands of the clock poiuting to
half past tea o'clock.
Then there was a momentary lull, the
lull of expectation ; the court officers
rush upon the surging crowd, the doors
are thrown open, and the jury enter.
The defendant, he who had once ruled
New York, sits by the side of his coun
sel, John Graham. He struggled hard
to preserve bis calmness, but his hands
moved restlessly, and his ' eyes glance
furtively in the direction of the men who
are to pronounce the simple words, 'Guil
ty' or "Not guilty.'
J udge Davis, as usual, took his seat
promptly upon the bench. Then there
was a pause, and the excitement reached
its height The connael for the defenee
and the prosecution exhibited undeniable
sign of anxiety. The clerk of the court
Mr. Sharks, rose aud put the usual ques
tion :
"Geutlemen of the jury, have you
agreed on a verdict ?"
The foreman replied : "We have not
as yet'
The Court asked them whether they
had any probability of agreement.
The foreman replied he did not know.
The court said he supposed they had
exhausted every means of agreement and
that it was useless to keep them further
together. He would, however, hear any
juror on that point.
The fourth juror said that since 7
o'clock they had stood exactly the same
and there was searcely any probability
of their Agreeing. Mr. Justice Davis
thereupon discharged the jury.
Thus ended a trial which has excited
more interest among the general public,
and has been of more importance to the
general public, than any trial which has
hitherto taken place in this city. Mr.
Field and bis associates gave few signs
of satisfaction. Mr. Tweed himself re
strained bis feelings admirably, but it
was evident that cue and all experienced
a deep feeling of relief. The result was
not entirely unexpected, even by the
prosecution : but the counsel for the peo
ple took small pains to eonceal their bit-
tor diavypoiotSBcat.
When the verdict was first announced
there was a general movement through
out the court room more expressive than
any loud outburst. Then there was
quiet again, and Mr Peckham rose. He
said that the result was one of universal
disappointment. Some absolute result
either of acquittal or conviction was moat
desirable. It bad seemed to him that
the ends of justice could only be served
by a persistent effort. He therefore mov
ed the immediate retrial of this case the
summoning at once of another panel
Mr. Field replied that this was a novel
and remarkable motion, and one not to be
acceded to. It was advisable that some
time be given for the cooling off of the
heat of which an unusual amonnt bad
been developed during this trial. He
did not see either that any cause should
be permitted to disturb the regular ad
ministration of justice, and he was told
that the Tombs was overflowing, and
there were many homicide cases awaiting
trial which should not be deferred.
The court suggested, that among all
the reasons given no one had considered
the judge's exhaustion and was further
question as to whether the Court of Oyer
and Terminer could be continued after a
new circuit was begun.
Mr. Graham said it could only continue
until the tiext term began, and cited
Burns' case. -
Mr. Graham argued that they were not
able to give their whole time to this mat
ter, if Mr. Peckham was well enough
paid to do it. They had other aud most
pressing engagements.
Judge Davis checked this line of re
mark, and said he would hold the matter
under consideration till Saturday. The
court then adjourned.
The result of this trial is hailed with
delight by every third and fourth-rate
politician in the city, and is deeply re
gretted by all who have the interests of
reform at heart All the better class or
citizens prayed for a verdict of Guilty"
or "Not guilty." They longed for some
definite decision. .Now a fresh delay has
arisen.
It is openly boasted by members of
the old Tammany party that this disa
greement of the jury is equivalent to a
final aeqnittal of Mr. Tweed. But there
are just as many who say that this same
disagreement is incomprehensible, and
that at a second trial a more intellectual
jury will render a verdict at once just and
gratifying.

A Beantlfal Handwriting.
There are but few of our readers who
would not like to acquire a rapid aud
beautiful handwriting, fur there is no one
accomplishment so highly prized as this.
The busiuess colleges of the country have
afforded the best instruction in this branch
and have succeeded in producing the
most accomplished penmen. The best
penman to-day is Prof. Cask ell, Pres't
of the Bayant & Stratum College of
Manchester, N II. There are few lovers
of the beautiful art of penmauship who
have not heard of this wonderful peuman
and many have seen specimens of bis
skill. His large specimens have attrac
ted great atteutiou in New York City
and throughout the country where they
have been placed on exhibition.
He is now engaged day and night
sending out Copies for self-instruction,
which he writes himself expressly for
applicants, so that any one can leain to
write at the home fireside. These con
tain fnll printed instructions, and are put

They are all numbered and so fully ex
plained that no one can fail to learn, rap

Mere Chinamen Trouble Apprehended.
It is reporied that another new lot of
celestials are on their way from China
for Beaver Falls, and that they will be
here in a few days, to go to work for the
cutlery company. The workmen and
I be people generally of the place are com
mencing to enter their protest rather
loudly. Great trouble is apprehended in
the near future when these men arrive
The elements certainly at the Falls, be.
token no kindly spirit towards the disci
pies of Confucius. Tbe war cloud is 1
raising, and the inutterings are too loud
to be looked at lightly, undoubtedly j
where there is so much smoke there must
be some fire Sooner or later certaiuly
some serious outbreak will occur. A
word and warning in time may. k twevcr
prevent a serious re ult. We do not !
want to see repeated here the scenes of i
California, let us have peace and quiet-
ness. Uuduiibtedly the workmen of
Beaver have some grievances which ought
to be righted, but two wrongs will never
make a right. PUUhnrg Gazelle, j
We notice that a snit of great impor
tance to those erecting brick buildings
has recently been decided in tbe New
York Court of Common Pleas. A brick
mason contracted to build a bouse, and
charge six dollar; per thousand for lay
ing the brick. When he came to mea
sure the brick he measured all the open
ings, windows, doors, etc., as solid work,
making the bill 2 300 larger than it
would have been had he only measured
the solid. The man for whom tbe work
was done refused to pay this $2,300, and
the mason brought suit to force payment,
pleading the custom of brick masons in
his favor. The conrt decided that his
charge was illegal, and that he Cad no
legal right to charge for brick that were
never laid. This decision is important to
contractors and builders, as other State
courts would be likely to follow tbe de
cision and precedent set by the New
York court. Ilarrisburg Telegraph.
Thb succession to the ' throne of the
Sandwich Islands has been decided, and
in the far away Pacific Islands hereditary
monarchy has achieved a triumph.
Prince William Lnnaliho ascends the
thrown of the Kamabamehas, to which
he is by consanguinity entitled. Save
his royal descent, as Sandwich Island
royalty goes, the new monarch possesses
not a siugle trait befitting a ' ruler. A
confirmed inebriate, his choice, by tbe
votes of the Islanders, cannot be regard
ed as otherwise than nufortunate for the
people over whom he is to rale. The
crowued sot will be in the hands of the
nnscrnpnlous and designing men that
have contributed most to raise him from
obscurity to the dignity, in name at least
of kingship. That William Lunaliho
may, in bis new station, break from his
evil habits and become a sober and con
scientious ruler is possible, but hardly
probable. Pilltburg Inquire.
There is a grim consolation in these
times of terrible freezing, snow and ice,
in reflecting that in the year 1817 there
there was literally no summer at all.
Frost prevailed in every month; snow to
the depth of six inches fell in Main on
the 22d day of July, and on the 16th
day-of August, ice to the thickness of
ordinary window glass was formed in
the open air. All the crops were bligh
ted, flour sold at sixteen dollars per bar
rel and seed corn at six dollars per bush
el.
Ice is nine inches thicker in
Kansas
this year'than ever before. -
There are three thousand whites in
tbe Sandwich Islands.
In Erie county several hundred discon
tented hnsbands and wives hare been of
the opinion during the past year that "life
baa bo misery equal to an ill assorted

quently applied for divorce.
Addresses are now circulating through
out Italy, and are now being numerously

posal of expelling tbe Jesuits from the
