GEORGIC F. MCFARLLED, Erg., Super. l
Intendant of, the Soldiers' Orphan'e
Schools of Pennsylvania, tarnishes nal' f
with ide anneal report for 1e67, ramie to
the Governor in pursuance or law. fink
law provides for the rare, maintenance 1 1 1
stid - idticiiinn, at' the - expenea or ;Loll
State, of the destitute orphan children of
ail
ail inch deceased soldiers and tailors,
citizens of Pennsylvania, and soldiers
who live sorted In Peruasylnniis regl
wants as - have died he the service of the
United States in the late war to suppress
the rebellion. Owing to the inadequacy
of the first appropriation mach difficulty
was experienced in disposing of all the
epplicatiorui made for admission into the
schools, and, indeed, in providing for
those already received into the schools.
After mature deliberation the Superia-,
tendent resolved to retain all the schol.l
ars, to admit only the odest and need.j
iest applimmte, to discharge promptly
all the scholars arriving et the age of
sixteen, and in no event to allow the 1 1
expenditures to exceed $430,000 per,
year, the sum voted by the moue.
During the last Coven =sputa of the
,3rear one hundred and eighty.oze pupils
were added to the Soldiers Schools, al
though the Superintendent effected a
change in the grade of scholarship which
fully compensated for this additional
number, entailing no additional Chlt.
Lis the State there are twelve schools
for the more advanced scholars, contain- i
ing 1,041 .male and 128 female pupils; I
there are three Primary schools contain.
lag 180 males and XIS females. There i
are 26 Homes and other Institutions
which admit 638 melee and 413 females;
at the Dome for destitute colored child
ran there are 15 melee and 7 female,.
These fienres give as 1,874 male and
1.206 female Scholars, affording a grand
total of 8,180 orphans supported, main
tained and educated by the State out of
gratitude rot , the services performed by
their fathers on the field of listtle. Ice
1807 the whsle nemter of accepted or
' plicatiens recet•sed was I,o9s,•beLeg 602
less Than in 1866, and 753 lees than in
1865; the number of orders issued 729,
being 1,040 less than in 4860, and 848
less than in 1E65; the number of admie
rions 630, being 945 leas than in 1860,
and 612 lus than in 1865; the number of
oischarges, 125, being 7 more than
in 1866, and 104 more titan.in 1865; while
the number in school at the close of the
year was only 409 greater than at the
close of the previous year, before which
the schools were not fairly in operation.
These figures show conclusively that
the maximum number in school at any
one time has now been, or is being.
reached,-and that hereafter it will de.
crease. The decrease from discharges
on age alone will be 374 in 18.88, 829 in
1889, 848 in 1870, 403 In 1871, 470 in
1872, 460 la 1372, 416 in 1874, 344 in
1673, and 307 in 1876, when the number
Neill have been reduced to the Capacity
of a single institution of ordinary size
The entire coat of clothing 1,988 er
n/eine in the advanced schools for the
eleven months ending December Ist,
IEB7, was 145,638 37, or ;23,90 for each
'orphan.
The schools will enter the new year
with a fair supply of good clothing, all
provided at the average cost of twenty.
d►e dollanfor each child per annum.
The salaries paid during eleven
mouths amounted to f. 4,274.99; other
general expeases et - the Department,
each as pestage, stationery, blank hooka,
minting, advertising, funeral expenses,
t.e., amounted to $1,606.62.
While the number of children actual

of 4,860 children be be provided for, ex
elusive of the additional applications re.
Weed after December 1, 1067; yet the
discharges will occur so rapidly, and the
actual admissions may be made so grad
ually, that the number actually in school
may be kept from exceeding 3,500, on
the Ist of inns, 1889, and 3,000 during
the following year, or by the let °fit:me,
1869, before which the maximum will
Lave been reached, and the decrease
have commenced.
Thus restricted, the average number
is Ildloo.l will not differ materially from
8,400 for the siz months ending June 1,
1888, and 8,500 for the year ending Jane
1, 1,868.
that no provision will be
made for no more than the numairshere
indicated, the Superintendent estimates
the average cost per pupil for the year et
$112.43. This contemplates only tie
:amnion of the friendless and desti
tute, and the Superintendent strongly
urges the Legislature to snake a more
liberal appropriation, so as to provide
for the reception of frilly dye hundred
more pupils, and as the maximum cam
her will be reached this year, the grunt
now asked will be the heaviest that will
ever be required.
The Snaerintendentie not particularly
pleased with the eharactvr, - style and ac
commodations of tke advanced and pri
.nary:sehools, and eels them down as
approaching failures when com2ared
with model institutions of the character . .
however, he congratulate' himself that
most of the schools show steady and en
couraging advance towards the required
standard.
The report concludes by paying eject
tribute to the patriotism of Gee. Cue.

Oars one thing do we etre to ley in
reply to thuMarriabstrg Tsiegray and
that in short metre. -Members of the
Legislature, or others, may think it legit
! imste to introduce bills, wait 01'10U:hat
examination, striking serionaly at large
industrial or commercial interests; tend
ing to put Come interests ander contri
bution tor - sharpers, on pretense of pro
moting the public wollere; throwing
those Interests Into temporary uncer
tahoty; and taking men concerned therein
away from their bottles and affairs, on
expense, to explain or counteract, but
onsineu men take a different view of the
case. They bold that legislators ere
bound to know what they are about, and
not, with eyes open or shut, strike at
whole classes or whole communities..
They will resent such blows as promptly
es legislators do asperelens n;ort their
integrity. At tie opening of the seri-
MOD. some lessons were inculcated, on
this bead, that ought not soon to be for
gotten. Oiber lessons, of like charac
ter, will follow in due season, from this
section of the Commonwealth.

was laid down fo be that in political
matters the bench had. no jurisdiction,
the Count:Mien deraillhp on Congress
exclusively the right and duty of ad
judging Whether the State organizations
were republic:in in form and sibflance.
This was deMonstrating that the power
now claimed by Congress for Itself, of
regulating the governments of the
Southern States, and denied to the Su
preme Court, ,was not revolutionary or
even novel, but strictly In. accordance
with the organic law or expounded by
the higheet Judicial tribunal. It was,
also, :bowing Inferentially that the
Domocrati, under color of zeal for the
authority and idlgaity of the Supreme
bench, were aiming to debauch it into
an instrument of partisan contentions.
The Pest Aid this decision with pro.

struction Policy not conferred on it by
the Conetitution. The Supreme Court
has had this question before it, and has
decided that Congress has exclusive au
thority in the premises, only political
topics being involved. West is more:
thls decision conforms to the doctrine
'aeld by the Court on this alma of mat-
ters from the foundstima of the govern—
ment.. Congress has been, and is still
acting strictly within the limits of Its
prerogatives;' and its assailants wish to
make now rules, in conflict with all past
precedents to snit their party ends.
This domino is the mere consequen
tial because it bee been understood for
months that a msjorlty• of the Judges,
in their private opinions, do not con

is doing. It they hid tee power they
world not do as Congress is doing, but
they are constrained to adpsdie that the
