Senators Con Id in ami Piatt, of
2ev York, liave resigned their
seats in the United States Satiate.
Tiiey expect to go before the Legis

course in the Senate by being re
elected. Friends of the administra
tion throughout the Empire State
are firing guns, and circulating pe
titions asking the Legislature to
elect other persons to fill the places
of the Senators who have just re
signed. The way things look now
it is more than probably that, in the
retirement of private life, these men
will have time, and to sp:ire,in which
to regret their hasty action. Yes
terday afternoon the Senate "con
firmed the nomination of Judge
Robertson as collector of the port
of New York, which goes to show
how little impression the resignations
of the two Senators had on that
honorable body.

Gteo. W. Rhlnea and tfia Small
pox. In our lust Issue we made the state
ment that Geo. W. Rliines had re
turned from Pittsburg and that It was
reported that he hud the smallpox.
The evidence on which we based the
statement seemed to he well authen
ticated. It was in this wise; Mr.
Khl nes was returning from a trip to
Pittsburgh, and while on the Brook
villuaud Ridgway stage he cooly In
formed the passengers that he had
been exposed to the small-pox, ami
that as he was broken out he hail good
reason to believe that he had the dis
ease. On the stage were several pass
engers, who, of course, were highly
delighted to think they were so fortu
nate as to be in company with a small
pox patient. Nearly any person would
feel deliglrcd under similar circum
stances. In his progress home he
cheerfully hinted to oilier parties that
lie wttscoming down with this loth
somo disease. Of course wo are will
ing to admit that, his former record
for truth ami veracity would argue
against any statement he might make
public. We, however, took enough
stock in the statement to say on his
own testimony (hat "it is reported,"
etc. The gentleman In question came
home on Wednesday night, and on
Tuesday momlnir the new.slm'l ioix.i
irom mouth to mouth that Geo Rliines
had the small-pox. The Borough
Council met and took action in the
matter and ordered Constable Wood
ward to have y.-llow 11 ig.s and notices
posted on Mr. Rhiucs' premises to
warn the public against the presence
of small-pox, we will here it No state
that the signs were removed before it
was ascertained whether ho hud the
disease or not and after one doctor
fjave it as his opinion that he had at
least the var!o!-4.1. About the next
move tl.o p.'.li'-iit. Mr. makes
Is to come down town and into the
billiard saloon of Mr. Aaron. In
this he did wrong, not knowing but
that he had the disease, as he exposed
in a p'cklcss and lawless manner the
healthaiid lives of the whole commun
ity to suit the convenience or whim of
George RUines. A man of his age it
seems would not desire to expose a
community, and would possess sense
enough lo stay in the house until
every doubt was removed of his hav
ing the disease. Then, we under
s I a 1 1 ' 1 , l t the time a committee of
physicians were to call on him, he
deliberately shouldered bis gun and
went to the woods. Ail these tilings
v.i re forcibly brought in mind as on
Monday morning Mr. Rhiucs accosted
the editor of 'I'm-: . Advocatk, and
with vile opith'-ts, and most abu
sive language, without giving a clian.'c
to explain, tried to browbeat and cow
down the alT'iesaid editor. He would
lie said, if c. eared of the law knock
ye editor down. When informed
ip.ih tly that it wouldn't cost him a
cent to knock, he blowed around, as is
his style, and went down the street
still blowing. It in very little satis
faction to write of u man who cannot
read what is written of him, but we
trust Ids friends will do him the kind
ness of reading this article to him. It
is currently reported that Mr. Rhiucs
is a man of wealth, and his use of
Billingsgate on the street Mond.iv
morning stamps him as a man of do
other recommendation. Whether
Mr. Rhiucs had, or had not, the small
pox. Iiisaclion all through the matter
is deserving of great censure. Me
should also understand thai lie is no!
justified in opening bis foul-mouth,
and loosening his blasphemous ton
gue to abuse people, e.-pecially with
out cause. There is no doubt but (ha!
the authorities should l.avc compelled
him to slay in the house if they Imd
authority to do .so, until nil do-bt of
hi having the disease lul l vanished.
We fail, de.-pite his threats and loud
mouthed blowing to see wherein Mr.
Rhiucs has been abused. For if be
had not the disease and knew he did
in t have it (hen be is deserving oi
censure for circulating such a lie If
he had the disease and knew it (hen
ids recklessness in exposing his family
and ( be community to its dread rava
ges would amount to a criminal
wrong and he would deserve to be
prosecuted as an enemy against soci
ety. Taking cither horn of the dt
lemma, the ijuicter he takes the mat
ter t he better for him. He is either
to be branded as an outrageous liar, or
else a a dangerous criminal. lie ha
committed an outrage on the com
munity in which be lives, uiri ie

"Boston Inside Out "
Rev Henry Morgan says, he has
ordered two sets of typo and engaged
two of the largest printing houses in
Boston, to print the next edition of
"Boston Inside Out," up to 20,000.
Over lotjO agents are canvassing for
the work, &0 ministers and nearly 1000
students. They have the profits, as
the book is for reform and not for
gain.
But few books have met with more
diverse criticisms and a more check
ered fate. Attempts were made lo
suppress it but failed. Suits were
brought against Mr. Morgan. Mor
gun Chapel was attached for $10,000,
but the suits were non-suited. Gam
blers "pooled there issues," to "Turn

their stakes. Leading papers and
ministers have expressed opposite
opinions. Those who have praised,
have not praised by half. They

A Good Honsertife.
The good housewife, when she is
giving her house its spring renovat
ing, should hear in mind that the
dear Inmates of her house are nioro
precious than many houses, and that
their systems need cleansing by puri
fying the blood, regulating the stom
ach and bowels to prevent and cure
the disease arising from spring uia
lariu and miasma, and she must know
that there is nothing that will do it so
perfectly aud surely as Hop Bitters,
the purest and best of medicines.
