The course of the Commercial in de

o i five new men and only two of the old

the State Convention were instructed: to
vote for him. Hon. H. W. Williams was
alio indorsed :for Supreme Judge. The
nomination of Geary and Williams by
the Philadelphia Convention may now be
regarded as a fixed fact.

Cleveland and Pittsburgh stock went
up ten per cent. in one day lately, on the
strength of a rumor that a scrip dividend
of thirty per cent. would shortly be de

doubted. k
The charges for passengers and freight
have been reduced on the Central Pacific

shadowed. It is intimated that the fare

It is proposed, in some quarters, to
make a political issue; 111 behalf of the
Republican party, upon a vigorous en
forcement of the Alabama claims against
England. Indeed, we hear intimations
that a resolution to that effect is to be pre
sented for incorporation in the Republi-
can platform at Philadelphia.
The Republicans of Allegheny have
already broken ground on this question,
in the direction of a faithful main
tenance "of the national rights and honor
before all the peoples of the world." The.
Alabama case presents but a single speci
fication, in the broad category of Ameri
can self-assertion, and there should be
long and: wise deliberation, among our
friends in Convention, upon the politic
expediency, as well as the abstract
propriety of making a specific demand
instead of enunciating a principle as
broad as intentatienal justice.
In piliint of fact, we could not but re
gard such a specification, at this'juncture,
when every indication points to a peace
ful and early vindication of the broad
principle, as interpreted in the light of
American sentiment, as most impolitic
and unstatesmarulke. The President has
already taken up the true line of our
National policy. He has no raison. .to
doubt the sincere and firm support which
the country already gives to him. He
knows, , as -we do, that we do
not desire a war, that we are not
prepared for it, and that there
exists, and will exist, absolutely no need
for it. We all know that England is at
this moment substintildly ready for a
concession which she would not have
made 'twelve months since, nor even
sixty days since, but in which her own
sense- of juatice and right hi r within a
few weeks, so rapidly crystallized that
there is, at this hour, scareely . even a fac
tion, among her public men, who are not
prepared to surrender
. every main point
in the past controversy.. ,The facts were
never so universally admitted, or the law
so plainly confessed in fayor the
broadest American claims, as withiii the
last fortnight.
We submit that this is not the hour or
the situation pioper for the volunteered
and mischievous dragooning of `Our own
partkzanship. Events and logic march on
with a power which nothing but some
domestic blunder can arrest." And parti
zanship will involve the Administration in
-the most fatal of mistakes, when it shall
drag it, as now suggested, into any false,
or indefensible, or unnecessary position
upon tluit delicate and critical question of
international reclamation.
It is only needful : that the President
should be steadily assured of the hearty
co-operation of his eceg i tryos,', and of
their profound contidenCelnffie wise
as well as the creditable vigor of
his administration, in all affairs, whether
foreign or domestic. If Republican Con
ventions go beyond that, the Republican
party may live to regret an unnecessary
and unwise step.
THE BURIAL OF THE DEAD.
One - of the customs of civilized America
is more unnecessarily barbarous than any
thing to be found in less enlightened
countries. Look at whatb called "Chris
tian burial." That last necessity of hu
manity,as provided for here,could scarcely
be more aptly regulated if the intention
of its constructors had been to find the
most harrowing process of playing on
the feelings of the surviving friends or
the deceased. '
In no other civilized land does the in
terment • take, place so anon after the de
cease; so soon that innumerable instances
are on record where the still: flesh and
lifelike appearance of the corpse has led
anxious friends to fearlhat life was not
yet extinct, but these Emus hive almost
invanably been overruled by thq require
ments and etiquette of custom,
In most nOuntrleso and those the most
civilized, the coat,. on its way to the
grave, is covered fief:Wit with an ample
pall; .here .an ungracefully, shaped sar.
cOphagus, bedizzened whips with glit

Suppose that instead of all this, after
waiting until no shadow of a doubt re
mains as to Death's actual presence,
a plain coffin, adapted in its shape and
material to the use to which it must be
put, should be procured and appropriate
'services as usual be performed at the
house of mourning, then have the coffin
placed on al truck adapted for the purpose,
—and such as are in general use through
out Eurep4—covered over with a heavy

male / friends, the undertaker and the
clergyman, to perform the necessary ser
vices, and so taken to the grave while the
mourners remain at home, spared all the
harrowing incidents which at present are
considered necessary! Undoubtedly many
would object to this; perhaps they would
say they wished to stay with the dead as
long as possible, or to show the last marks
of respect to dear friends. To these we say
that only a comparatively modern custom
sanctions the presence of women at fu
nerals at all, and that in England—and in
Philadelphia and other parts of our own
country,rtaining En,glish habits—only
the male friends of the family are invited
to participate in the ceremonies, consider
ed too distressing for females to be allow

We do not believe that because a custom
is an old one it should be adhered to or
adopted, but if it be sensible, it; , antiquity
should not be an objection. hen, teo,

Tne reputation of the author will no
doubt sive this book a wide circulation,
from the fact, that she has written a num
ber of poptilar works. The story, in
some respecte, is well told, and presents
admirable traits, but some may be dis
posed to question her views of Western
Society, as h ardly being up to the general
eharacteristi eli - of that portion of the West,
embodied inthe plot of theinovel. , The
story repesents the heroine following the
object of her earliest attachment to the
West, wherOte has attained to power and
position, and finally, ends as might be en
expected. Mrs. Holmes writes in a style,
pure as wellite3 agreeable, and high toned.

The elegant manner in which this book

But the bOok itself has intrinsic 'merits
'which ought to give it a wide ,circulation.
%Unlike boas of European travels, it de
picts new scenery, grand, picturesque,

kind in alliits grandeur and rugged sim
plicity. 601. McClure, the author, writes
in that fre(l and familliar %Vie that an tai

McClure ie a lover oinatire and has been

much that,is valuable, too, since the rail
road is opined to the Pacific Coast, that
will aid travelers passing over that grand
route to' proper conceptions of the

Tnn Bellefonte Republican says
If the discussion must go on, why not
begin at the foundation? Why not take
the Legislative Record and show how .
every member voted' on every bill? If
any member, or members, received'
bribes, or voted for wicked and corrupt
bills, for a price to them in hand paid,,
why not give the names of each and every
one of them, and, at the same time, pub
lish the price each oneleceived? If the'
Commercial has chosen‘o attend to our
household only, and to expose none but
Republicans, it should know what it iE4
doing, and should be able to give names,.
amount of money received, and the char-,
acter of every bill voted for by these cor-;
ruptionists, or forever hold its reace.
Talk is cheap. Charges are easily made- ,,
but what does it all amount to in the ab
sence of the necessary proof ? Is it hon
est? Is it just and fair on the part of the
Commercial to seek to throw suspicions
upon, or blacken the character of any
member of the Republican party by mere
insinuations? Let us have the names or
the guilty parties, and the evidence of
their guilt. Give us these, or tease to
trouble us further with the subject? *
* It is not logical. It is not a.
manly way of fighting to create suspi-
cions upon the character of these inen,,
and turn them over to the mercy of the
people, without any evidence of their
guilt, and assign no reason for so doing
except that your "first duty is to the Re
publican party."
To makseharges, and then fail to prove
them, wetaens a cause. Our rule is to
make noicharges against any man until
we first have the evidence in our poases- ,
sion to substantiate them. *
Down with the comptionista;, but no
false swearing, is our motto. Make out a
case, or select some other subject.
THE Hollidaysburg Register, copying .
an article from the Pittsburgh Dispatch,
says : I '•
"It is a review of the course of the •
Pittsburgh Commereial, a professed Re
publican paper. The Blair County Rad
ical during the past few months has used.
its feeble powers, through a pretended,
correspondence from Harrisburg, and ed.
itorially, in the same way as the Cora
niercial, and only last week had a fulsome
editorial approving the course of that dis
organizing paper. • In the language' of
the Dispatek "We ask of . the Radiear.
that it will do one of two thine; either
drop its mask and turn Dernochst; and
thus quit a party it, deneunces hole=
lessly corrupt, or else abstain fro& lift.
wholesale and untruthful charges of cor
ruption" against the Republican,party."
Tut. Erie Gazette says: The Pltstburgh
Giacomo reads the Pittsburgh Conner.;
eial squarely out of the Repttblican - party,
on the charge that a Demncrat is -filling
its chair editorial and prostituting Its col
umns to Democratic uses. The Courser-
Biel does not deny the soft impeachment
but is resorting to certificates of character
from private correspondents, instead of
relying upon the justice of Its cantie:'"The
Pittsburgh GAzzprz ig emphatically cor
rect, and its course ia endorsed by the Re
publican party of Allegheny county,.

such "True. Republicanism" as D z etAik
cratic editors manufacture,

alluding to the secidental ' death of Mr.
Prichard, near that place, says: "There
is something 'sadly strange about the fate'
of this family. Mr. Prichard's grand
father was killed while felling a tree; a few
years since one of his sisters and her
child were burned to death, and another
sister hist a child by drowning. Such
chapter-ot fatal accidents seldom occurs
in one family." I.
