PunsoMAL. We notice among the
gentlemen of the I5ar in attendance at
court this week, that genial gentleman,
Hon. Win. P. Jenks of Jefferson
Ciiun'y. Mr. J. has b3en a regular
practitioner at our court for the last
tweuty yeirs.and during all that time Las
maintained bis position as a first-class
lawyer with 110 superior as an advo
cate and socially, whilo he could have
imiintatoedhere aud clscwheie a position
nmoog thoso who pride themselves 00
their gentle blood, and arristoeratio
breeding; yet his has ever been a mind
far above such noosenscial. idea?, and
looking with scoro upon such foolish
pretensions, he always chose his asso
ciation among men and women of
sense without regard to what their
jiraud-daddies wore. Politically he has
behavsd himself as well as a Democrat
could, which, to besuro, is not the best.
but he exhibits such a degree of can
dor and fairness, that you would hardly
fruftpect that lie bud acted with that foul
party until its lute final dissolution. He
even served two successive terms in the
State Legislature duriug which time
be was the uckuowledged leader of the
Democratic side, cnd bo ctitne out with
out a whisper against his integrity
without spot or blemish upon his moral
character.
We notice that he is a candidate for
President Judge iu h;8 district, com
posed of tho counties of Jefferson,
Forest, aud Clariou and has the in
structions from the first named two
counties, which virtually gives him the
Domination; although the proverbial
corruption of his party are cropping out
in the shape of a threatened revolt in
Clarion county, which may place Borne
gool Republican on the Bench. If
any Pemocrat is to succeed, we are in
favor of Mr. Jeoks, us he lias all tbe
necessary qualifications to adorn tbe

Rowdies. On last Satui day even
ing the performance iu Messenger's
.Hall was disturbed by a couple of
cowardly, drunken, rowdies who had
previously made their brags tbat they
would "clean out" the show. Intoler
ance has, emphatically, ceased to bo a
Virtue, ana such characters should bo
made to feel that there is a God iu
Israel and a law in the land.
Judging by the strength wit'i whioh
our brother chip gives the lie t "hon

caused by the new departure iu itead of
passing off is developing evidont signs
of madness. Have not his exprierice

given tho third and fourth evenings by
special request. We havo do t the
space to give a detailed account of each

PiTTsnuRaii Female Colli gx.
It is with no ordinary pleasure that we
cnmmerjd to our readers the Pittsb jrgh
Female College. It is every way
worthy its widely extended and gro ring
reputation, aud just such as schoo l as
thoughtful parents, who prefer au edu
cation to a diploma only, will lio re
joiced to find. It aims at a broail aud
aeiicrous culture, to unito solidity with
polish, and by a thorough tiiiiulog of
tho mental and moral powers to- fit
young ladies for the duties and rrs; )on-
sibilitics of life. The influences of a
Christian home ore combined with the
advantages of a school of the lug' jest
grade. Tho charges are modciat, loss
than any school in tho United St ates
affording equal advantages aud act ora-
modations, and demonstrate thai the
institution is conducted with a view to
better ends than uiero monty malting.
Twenty-two teachers have ben en
gaged for the coming year. Tho laxgo
and beautiful buildings ore fitted up in
excellent style, and in a word, evwy
possible preparation is making for the
Fall terra, which commences Septem ber
5th. It is the Queen College of Pe nn

St. Mary's, Aug. 7th, 1871.
Editor Advocate Dear Sir:
I find in tho Elk Democrat of Aug,
6th, the following article:
The "Honest" nenublioans. If anythln
was needed to show the straits to which
the Radical partv is reduced inthisconnty
it sufficiently arnears in the desperate
means to which thoir organ resorts to gull
ine people. A glaring lustanoe is exliiuii
ed in Its attack, upon tho county commis
sioners concerning "'earth excavation '
in its issue of tho 27th ult. it propounded
to the commissioners two questions
"How many curuo feet make ft cum
yard!" "and "What is a fair price for
earth excavation!" In its last issue It as
serfs substantial that S2.40 per yard is t
be paid for earth excavation. Now, thi
earth excavation must, relate to the con
tract for the sub-structure of the now
bridge across the Clarion. There is noth
ing else U whioh it can re'ato. so far as
we know, and we havo heard the same
talk cossinod about the streets. Wo have
carefully real the entire contract mad
by the county commissioners, and we as
sert tbat there is nothing about a cum
yard" in tho contract anywhere. Th
language, so far as pay for the eaith ex
cavatiou is concernod. is "at the rate oj
rouiT cbnts for eaeh iquare yard of nine
tubic foot for the cxc'vation." The whole
story is, therelore, an unblushing, and, wo
have no doubt, a deliberate Lie!
The itulics aud small caps are theirs
I know little about tho facts of this
mutcer except what I have noticed in
the papers, but it seems to me that the
person who wrote tho above, be ho ed
tor, legislator, or clerk, is as wofully
itrnorant as the man who made or the
man who drew the contract from which
the italicised portion of the above ar
ticle is alfegcd to be an extract. Igno
ramus oush to be more certain of bis
ground betore lie applies bis epithets to
freely.
The writer,when at sobool,was taught
that "9 square feet make one square
yard," aud has always acted upon that
basis in all bis business experience dur
ing the years that have passed since
that time. The term iguare is applied
to surlacc or superficial measure only
and signifies length and breadth with
out depth; a square yard is only the
thickness of a line or point, and if ap
plied to depth at all might as well ex
tend to the antipodus as to the depth of
one foot. Now, the deuial that the
County Commissioners ate to pay the
contractors on the Ridgway bridge at
the rate of 82.40 per cubio yard of
earth excavation, if such denial is in
tended in the article, is no denial at all,
for the fact is admitted.
On all public works, Railroads, Ca
nals, etc., earth excavation is paid for
by the cubic yard twenty-seven cu
bio feet and if my recollection ot the
multiplication table is correct three
times forty is one hundred and twenty;
there is one half of $2.40; now, I ap
prehend that the other half is got at in
this way, that tho County Commission
era are to pay for all earth put into the
approaches to the bridge at the same
price as for tho excavation, which just
doubles thn price and makes $2.40 per
cubio yard for all tho earth taken from
the foundations of the bridge. Q. E.
D. Tho price at present given on tho
Bennett's Branch R. 11., for earth ex
cavation, is 33 cents per yard, leaving
in favor of the contractors on the Rids-
wny bridge on excess of 32.07 per yard
over the regular rate.
How high is that?
Now let us kuow what prico is paid
for the stone work, aud whether the
masonry is first or second class. The
Democrat man, having access to the
contract can of course enlhihteu us be
nighted outsiders, and while be is
about it and having files containing the
Auditors' lepoits, ho might also inform
us how the ring stands on the books
of tbe county, aud whether it is really
worth while to pay 3 per cent for re
ceiving and 3 for disbursing the peo
ple's money in order to help support
members of tbe ring in idleness; and,
also, whether those peoplo Lie (with a
capital L) who say that the ring is cost
ins the taxpayers of tho County at least
o.UUU per year.
Post up the books, please.
