JUDGE Thr.wr, the self-nominated candi•
date of the Mississippi Conservatives,
publishes a letter in the press of that
State, planting himself upon the platform
occupied by Gov. WALKErt, of Virginia.
The letter is a very good one--,which
makes it the more surprising that every
rebel in Mississippi supports,hiro. As he
is not legally a resident of the State,
there is much curiosity_to know how be
will qualify for, the office, if he should
chance to be elected. It is prnbable that
the people will themselves take the bene-,
fit of the doubt •
Wit. H. Brims, Esq., President 'of
the National Labor Union, and a man of
much force of character and ability, died
at his, residence in Philadelphia on Tues
day last. He was a consistent and earn
est friend of the laboring element of the
country, and his freedom from dema
gogism in the championship of the
cause of the industrial masses won for
him their fullest confidence, and the es-
teem and respect of even those against
whom he contended, as, honesty of pur
pose and sincerityof intention were con•
spicuous In all his public and private acts.
BASE is the ingratitude of the opposi
tion press! They are now abusing Gov
ernor GzenT for pardoning some con
victs, all - of whom were probably Dema
crate, but for all of whom there were
ample recommendations to his clemency.
"We won't have Cos," swore the Mc-
Mullin mob at Harrisburg, "we must
have a Governor who will let our boys
run,. when they are nabbed." They went
for PacEsn, to a man! If Governor
GEARY has habitually misused, his pre
rogative as they charge, every thief and
scoundrel la the Dtmocratic party would
be his friend.'
THE PartrzsyLverm Osacvaes is
watched with much interest by those

whether, adhering to printiPli, they will
dmitinue tdrieognize true merit, worth,
idateemeeship and patriotism, though all

PACKER represents twenty millions or
- more in very hard cash, but never was

printing a letter in' which; he urges that
"the only proper course is for the Gen
eral Assembly of Georgia to conform to
the principles of our Supreme Court de
cision on the eligibility question, in all
future issues." Submitting ton judicial
authority of their own, the people of Geor
gia will have a better opportunity to es
cape, with .a show' of dignity and consis
tency, from the dilemma in which they
hive involved themselves, In the strict
ness> of loizic, the same decision would re
quire tha i t all the legislative proceedings
which were the acts of the intruders ille
gally foisted into the Legislature, usurp
ing the places,of coloredi °members duly
elected and qualified, should be considered
as undone. But in view of the general
contusion to result from this rigid inter
pretation, it is believed that the Radical
party of the State would accept a compro
mise which should protect them against
such outrages - in future.
A LEADING FRIEND OF PACKER and
PERSIIING, in Philadelphia, threatens the
people of this Commonwealth with an
armed rebellion. This is not a mere
empty menace. Our people should un
derstand what it means. An existing
statute of Pennsylvania, legally enacted
and judicfally upheld, provides needful
safeguards for a pure suffrage. Upheld
and faithlullyl enforced; that statute, pre
cludes any possibility of success for the
Democratic ticket . Therefore, they are
determined to break it down, and nullify
it at all hazards, at least in Philadelphia,
which has alwayk.been their favorite
field, and often for sucCessful outrages on
the ballot-boxes. The Courts refuse to
aid their hostile designs. Theyiely next
upon the local officers to whose partisan
prejudices they can appeal. If thisresort
fails, then for the muskets_ of Mr. Vanx
and his friends. Ths:t, is the programme
for Philadelphia, and' perhaps for other
districts of the Commonwealth. Are the
people ready for it!

A MONUMENTAL SUGGESTION.
Munich has been called , the City of
Statues, because of the number of monu
ments of that sort which haVe been erec
ted in its streets and squares, to commem
orate great men and deeds. In that beau
tiful city there is scarcely a street that has
not at least -one bronze monument to
adorn it; bat the most remarkable thing
of this sort in the whole capital is proba
bly the renowned lihumshcille, or temple
of fame, which is a beautiful Grecian
temple, built of white marble, around the
colossal figure of Bavaria, and contain
ing the busts of all Bavarians whose self
earned renown has rendered them - worthy
of being- thus honored. In hiscountry
we have nothing of this sort; indeed, in
the whole land , there are probably not so
many monumentatstatues, 'altogether,
as there are in this single German city.
Now it has been suggested, to us that it
would be a beautiful thing if one portion
of the Allegheny Commons —say the
East, the North' or the West—were set
apart as a memorial to renowned Penn
sylvanians, to be
~edoriaed,, from, time to .
time, with bUsts or 'statues of 'the famous
citizens of our Arend old, State,
,The
idea hi a beantiltil one. The plan tieenut
practicable enough, and, if it should be
undertaken. _would almost undoubtedly
succeed. The only thing to be guarded
against would lie the•erections of such
memorials to persons whose fame-wouid
not warrant =such an -honor, bat whose
friends might be allowed to , conter it On
giem through a natural desire,on the part
of the people having.the matter in charge,
to Make it- a' operdi encases:. In' sash

presage for our country's fhture peace.
Since the pugnacious Tata thus follows
the lead of the' pugnacious Blair, we
cannotte blind to the fact that the oppo
sition must be spoiling.for a fight. They
had a rare opportunity for hostilities from
1881 to 1865, but improved it nowhere
north'of the Marylandline. During that
unpleasantness, the Packer party pre
served a strictly pacific neutrality. They
wouldn't help an abolilionized Union,
and they didn't dare to give open aid to
their Southern friends. But they have
talked no end of fight since a peace was
conquered. And there is no way of car
ing them of their belligerent propensities
except to , quit holding these valiant Cap
tain Bobadilr-
And that is modern Democracy! To
talk of "trampling the laws in the dust
under the heels of an army" led by Blair,
or of taking up their muskets with Mr.
Packer's Philadelphia friend, but when
it comes to the pinch, they dare nothing
except to waylay and assassinate good
citizens by the road-side, as all over the
South, or to set on a mob to beat out the
brains of some prikirlahmarcwho ex
poses such electioneering &Vices as the
coffee-pot villainies in our own county of
Clearfield. When it comes t 4 that kind
of fighting, your modern Democratic pol
itician seems to be in his element—and
only then.

granted. Will the.people vote to refuse a
free gift of.real estate, worth a million of
dollars or more, because, forsooth, taxes
for its improvement will thereafter follow?
We think not. We have too much confi
dence in their judgment and liberality to
entertain the idea that they will permit a
golden opportunity, such as cen never
again occur, for the se cnrement of a grand
and inviting country spot, where rich
and poor, high and low can repair for
rest and relaxation from the toils of the

EMU
SALARIES OF FEMALE TEACHERS.
EDITORS GAZETTE: In looking over
Prof. Luckey's excellent report for our
city schools, published a few days since,
I was much pleased to see the following:
"Oar people have been led to consider
the inequality of salaries given to male
and female teachers for the same work,
and the Central Board of Education have
thrown open the doors to all positions
within their gift, and have left our female
teachers free to aspire to the highest posi
tions of profit and trust In the, public
schools of our city." This was good
news and - rejoiced the . hearts of
those who desire to see justice
done. But after learning the facts
in the case of a young lady of the
highest ability in her profession who is
"aspiring to the position of principal of
one of our ward schools, it occurred to
me thatthe Central Board had certainly,
left our lady teachers "free to aspire,
but—aspiration being a good thing for
the soul—the ward boards would take
particular care that the lady teachers
should have plenty of time in which to
perform that excellent Intellectual exer
cise. They will be, it Is evident, in no

Br ono the nomination of Packer, the
editor of the Selinsgrove Times, a radi
cal Democratic paper, wrote as follows:
"This day the Democratic State con
vention assembles at Harrisbnrgh to
make nomination for Governor. Gen.
a + ini
Geo. W. Cass has the inside track,- but
ring of demagogues "who go
there nstructed as delegates will try
and heat him out of the nomination.
They are for the man, and that man may
be any man who promises them the most
money. These men generally favor
Packer, because he is .very wealthy, and
they- expect to make him come down
'with the 'dust.' It- is .by no means his "
good qualities they are after," -
We have not learned what the editor's
sentiments are now. Doubtless he goes
with the crowd for Packer and his 'dust.'
A NEW DMEMISA••-DOCS Aint Packer
'own any United Stldes bonds, of did be
ever do so?
This is the latest dilemma of the unfor
tunate Democracy.
If he does.or did, then he is a bloated
bondholder, to borrow the elegant lm
guage of the Democratic journals.
If he does not, or never did, then he
refused to aid the Government in the
hour of its peril in the only way could
aid it.
If his millions, like a Democrat's ,
doubts, have always been cast against
his country, they aro not to his credit.
If, on theother hand, his money is in
vested in the tax-exempted bonds of the
Government, then he has been violating
the first principles of the giispel of mod
em Democracy after Brick Pomeroy. -
On which horn of the dilemma does
Mr. Packer hang?
When the Democracy disbover that the
money-bags of Packer have failed to cor
rupt the majorities of Pennsylvania, the
unfortunate millionaire will become an
offence in their nostrils; a sort of politi
cal Asa-feetida.
The Pottsville Miner's Journal says
the Democracy of Schuylkill and 'Berks.
are grievously disappointed. They want
ed Hancock, and Packer's nomination
falls like a wet blanket on them. The
Reading Gazette (Democrat) predicted
defeat if Hancock should not be nomina
ted. "Coming events cast their 'Shadows
before,"
The Cincinnati Enquirer, the leading.

We can tell these California Democrats

that the Southern Democrats, under • a
