EDITORIAL NOTES.
It is rumored that Justice Noah II.
Swayna proposes to retire from the
bench of the United States Supreme
Court in few months, which lie nitty
do under law of Congress, on full pay.
Should he resign, President Grant will
have the appointment of a filth member
of the Supreme Court, or a majority ol
that body.
The application for stamp? lor the
prepayment of newspaper postage for
the first moDth of the new year already
aggregate $500,000. The Post-officiab
however, consider that this sum exceeds
the probable monthly demand, the esti
mate of the annual revenue from this
eouree being $1,000,000. The Depart
ment doe not expect that any consider
able amount of the newspaper business
will go to the express companies.
IlEAvr monthly reductions of the
publio debt are evidently things of the
past, the Government, like individuals,
being compelled to postpone the dis
charge of its indebtedness until there
turn ef good times. The statement
issued on Tuesday, shows a decrease
during tie past month of $123,427 OS;
the coiD balance is 883,043,307 24; cur
rency, $16,099,311 48: eoin certificates,
823,045,400; certificates of deposit,
$47,120,000.
Judge Paxson's good fortune still
serves him. On Saturday 28th of
Nov. he met the Hon. Warren J. Wood
ward of Reading, his brother judge-elect
of the Supreme Court for the term of
t.vcnty-one years from the first Monday
of Jan. next, in the city of Reading to
oast lots for "priority of commission,"
in accordance with the provision of the
seventeenth section of articlo 5 of tbe
Constitution. The priie was won by
Judge Paxson, who will thus be Chief
Justice of Pennsylvania for the last
seven years of his term, uoless his place
should become vacant by death or resig
nation. How Terrible The Clearfield
Republican last issue says, Fpeaking of
the XLIlId Congress: "It will be the
last Radical Congress that will ever meet
at the National Capitol. Mark what we
8iJ."
How -anguine the gleeful Democracy
are now a days they "fondly hope 'twill
last for aye," but we predict that some
fine morning the Democrats will wake
up and discover that the people who
produced tbe reaction this fall, are not
so anxious to be found training with the
Democrats. We claim that in four
years we will have a Republican ma
jority on joint ballot in our National
House of Representatives. Will Bro.
Goodlander please mark that and hang
it up to dry.
Emigration Returns. During the
first nine month of the present year
there was a great falling off in the num
ber of emigrant arrivals at New York
The anaber arriving at that port during
the first nine months of 1873 was 227,
(391, while during the corresponding
period of this year only 124,680 emi
grants arrived. A part of this reduction
may prove permanent, for the continual
drain made upon the labor markets of
Europe must result some day in better
ing the condition of those who remain,
and thereby eheck the desire to emi
grate. But the greater part of the re
daction was more likely due to the
pinto of last fall and the consequent
depression of business. It seems prob'
able, too, that there has been a return
ing tide of foreigners since tbe panic,
but there have been no official figures
on this subject published.
A Model Wife. A Japanese lady
has invented a means of reconcilatioo
between quarrelsome partners which
should aot be confined in practice to
that distant prt of the world. Having
quarreled with her husband, the
decided upon dying. Not content with
merely relinquiihing this dreary world,
she endeavored to do it at the greatest
possible sacrifice. She bit out her
tongue, and awaited death. Fortunately
for all parties, death did not arrive as
oon as her husband. She was there
fore saved. And now Nakamura has a
model wife. When he aomplains of the
toughness of his steak, she ean merely
look at him. Turning big eyes in
another direction, be can make the most
atiricalj- comments upon feminiue
economy; ean wonder why women never
do learn how to keep down the grocer's
bill, to save a portion ol their husband's
. salary; eaa assure her that a little vari
ety of delicacies for breakfast is some
thing that coy woman of sense could
find; ean grumble at tbe milliner's bill,
and growl about the coal being all out,
without receiving a word of remonstrance
llean tell why the bady cries without
being challenged (o remedy the evil,
and can generally enjoy himself without
danger of a squall. Why should Japan
monopolize such a boon?
Forney's Frjss.
The rumors ;tliat Forney's Press, of
Philadelphia, had been sold to a com
pany and that Col, McCluiewas to man
age it, is pronouneed untrue. Able Re
publicans have stepped into the relief
of Col. Forney who is omcwhat embar
rassed and the Press will continue as it
is a supoiter of Republican measures
and men. Col. Forney, writing from
Europe, attributes the late Republican
defeat to the financial embarrassments
of the country and thinks the remedy
for the country and the party is not in
further contraction or resumption of
specie payments. lie says:
Every intelligent observer must de
cide that no organization will dare to
attempt to cure tho prevailing distress
by a resort to any of the known ideas,
Buch as hard money and specie pay
ments. The one strong tact bears
equally upon every miod, that we have
now very little more currency for the
whole of the country than we had at tbe
close of the war for a little more than
half the country. What, then is the
duty of the Republican party in the pre
sent situation? 1 claim that, having
created our financial system, having
fought the war through with tho present
circulating medium, having protected
industry and contributed unspeakably
to the prosperity of the nation, it is the
bounded duty of that party to take care
of the institution it established and to
do this at the earning short session oj
Congress. The Atncricau people have
declared that they want the means by
which to live, and this can be lurnished
by the simple process of stopping the
reduction of the publio debt, increasing
the circulating medium, and builditig
our transcontinental railroads. 1 am
writing not iu the interests of any party,
although I believe these will be the
means of putting the Republicans it
figiiting trim for I87G. What I suggest
cannot be safely opposed by any pointed
organization, and must at last bo adop
ted even by tie Deomcrats, with all
their tendencies to free trade and hard
money. Our country has suffered suf
ficiently for what has been coldly called
the "cruicial test." The rich have only
grown richer in the course of this fierce
and grinding process, and tbe poor
poorer. It would be a startliug exhibit
if we could find and print the proof of
this assertion, showing how much the
destitute have agonized since the col
lapse of September, 1873.
The Republicans are in au over
whelming majority ia the two houses
uf Congress which meet on tbe first
.Monday in December, 1874, and ad
journed on the 4th of March, 1875.
Let them move to the good work at
once, and throir themselves upon tbe
oountry, aud they will be vindicated at
the polls. Let them do this in defiance
of protests from whatever qmrter, and
they will be rewarded not only by proa
perity at home, but by a revival of the
confidence of foreign nations, so rudely
shocked by the result, of that suicidal
contraction, fruitful alone in bankrupt
cies and defalcations, and still crushing
us to the earth.
J. W. F.
Judok Elwell, in a Columbia
county case, recently, decided that
school directors could only levy a tax of
ten mills on the dollar. This decision
has been held good by Judge Walker
and an additional point decided in a re
cent Schuylkill county case. A regular
tax of ten mills and a special tax of two
mills for building purposes, had been
assessed in the borough of Pinegrove.
Tbe building tax was to be used for the
repair of a school house already erected.
Judge Walker decides tho two mill tax
to be illegal. Ordinary repairs must be
made out of the regular school fund.
As these decisions are in conflict with
the rulings of tho school department it
is more important that they should be
generally known in order that school
directors may not ignorantly collect
taxes they are not eutitled to receive.
PitlsLurjh Telegraph.
A Philadelphia is said to have
invented a machine with which, by tho
use of only two gallons of water, he can
generate sufficient motive power to run
a train from Philadelphia to San Fran
cisco aud back. The water is used over
and over again, and no fuel, chemical,
electricity or magnetic currents ate used.
A trial of the muchinu was made re
cently injthe presence of three witnesses
sworu to secresy, who were astonished at
the simplicity and power of the inven
tion. It U kept closely concealed un
der lock and key, and is shown only to
experts sworn uot to divulge tho secret.
Although it is proposed by this inven
tion to supercede steam, the new
machine will produce a pressure of
7,000 pounds to tho squire inch, the
pressure ot steam ranging fiom 30 to
200 pounds. A number of capitalists
are said to have expressed a willingness
to pay large cuius ot money lor the pat
ent right for certain localities, and there
is no doubt that the inventor, if he can
preform with Lis machine one half he
claims, has made his own fortune, be
sides conferring an inestimable blessi ng
upon humanity.
All taxes on unseated lands should
be returned to county comtuissioneM for
collection on or before the last day of
December. A failure to make such re
turns will result in a loss of the taxe
for such townships. This is a matter
of great importance and tbould not be
neglected. Under the new Constitution
there is no remedy tor a neglect ot this
duty.

A prominent New York physician lately
complained to DnnJua Hick, uboui hisSad
dnlwood Oil Cnpsulns, slating that some
times they cured miraculously ; but that a
pitient of his had taken them for sometime
without effect. On being informed that
several imitations were made and sold, he
inquired and found that his patient had
been taking capsula psold iu bottles, and not
UUNDAS DICK. & CO S.
What happened to this physician may have
happened to others, and DCNDAS DICK &
CO., take this method of protecting "Oil of
Sandalwood" from this disrepute.
PHYSICIANS who once prescribe the
Capsulas will CONTINUE TO D SO. for
they contain the PL' RE OIL in the BEST
AND CHEAPEST form.
OIL OF SANDLEWOOD is fact super
seding every other reme.ly, sixty Cspsitles
ONLY bciug ieiu:red to iusure a rule uud
certain cure in six or eight days. From
no other medicine can this result be had.
Dick's Soft Capsules solve the prob
lem long considered by many eminent phy
sicians, of how to avoid the uuusca and dis
gust experienced in swallowing, which are
well kuown to detract from, if uot destroy,
the good effects of many valuable remedies.
Soft Capsules aie put up in tin-foil aud
neat boxes, thirty in each, and are the
only capsules prescribed by Physicians.
