Tux mild , mannered Indians of the
Arapahoe and Cheyenne tribes are on the
war path, committing all sorts of depre
dations. A little more of Sheridan - and

about this time. The effect of articles in

aging blm to do all sorts of wicked things
to perplex the administration, published
in the,Poef, which has large circulation in
the tribes,is commeaeing to be felt.

=II of the Erie-Crawford district to stand
by George K. Anderson •'for be will prove
a • capable and faithful representative.'
Cool Mr. Anderson will fully appreciate
the endorsement, but lest vanity should
get thebetter of -him, we would advise
that he continue In his efforts to establish
his claims as a resident of his district; to
account for the scrap of financial paper
held in flarriaburg, for the sake of his
handsome autograph; to explain . his
course last winter in engineering the bolt
cm the Treasurership; to make gc;od his
record as a Republican, and to soften .the
'points of the Pipe bill swindle story rn
doing allthese things Mr. Anderson will
have occupation enough until Monday
next, when, in all probability, the people
. of Crawford will vote to allow him plenty
of time for meditation in the irtirary of
private life.

feeling of animosity left by the war to
poison the minds of the people of onesec.

entirely died out, and the victors and The
vanquished mingle together as of yore in
brotherhood and fellowship. The sooner

also implies a union of heirts and hands

entertain malice; and forgiveneas.is more
pleasant and pays better. That will be a
happy day when the ' bitter feelings en
gendered by the war are eradicated from
the American heart and we all stand sol-
Idliand closely cemented together and

of the land. .
THE CRAWFORD COUNTY SYS
TEM.
As • our County. Committee has asked
the people once more to pass upon • the
question of adopting the Crawford coun
ty system, and as the Committee has been
moth blamed by those who are gettjpg up
a Free Lore call because they did not es
t/Mali the Crawford county system this
year, without submitting it td the people,
we propose to show that, only two years
ago,- this system wab submitted to the Re
publicans of this county and that they re
fused to adopt it.
The whole matter has-tog been so re
cently acted on by the people, the source
of all power, It was manifestly improper
to ask. - much less to expect, the County
Committee to deliberately set the popular
verdict aside.
On the 12th of February, 1868, the Re
publiCan County Committee met, and
called a County convention to meet on
• Match 2d, following, to elect delegates to
. the State Convention.: We extract the fol
lowing from the minutes: •
A discussion took place on die question
as to whether the delegate or Crawford
scanty rystem should be adopted at the
primary elections, - which terminated by
the appoin tment of a committee, monist-
Ing o en. A. L. Pearson, C. W. Melleittwi
and W. N. Ogden, to 'correspond with
other county committees as to the mode
...of carrying on elections and report at a
subsequent meeting.
• The Committeothen adjourned to Feb
. ruiry 19th, when the following proceed
ings took place :
Ressfred, That the manner of making
nominations hereafter by the Republican
party be referred to the primary meetings
on the'29th of February-41dd primary
meetings to instruct their delegates In
what manner the future : nominations
should bo made--wlietherhy Popular vote
or by electing delegates.
Resolved, That this Committee rec'om
mend to the. Republican voters of each
district that they instruct theli delegate'
to the March Convention as to whether
the nominations shall hereafter be made
by popular vote or by the delegate apt
tam.
The. Coniention met on the 2nd of
March: and Gep.Pearlloll, Chaim= of the
Committee previously appointed on the
subject, by the Comny Committee, sub-
mitted a paper gfrilla the tallest details
of the Crawford sonny system. In the
course of the proceeding. of the Conven
tion we find the following paragraph :

The minority report was as follows:

The italtnity of this Committee who
thus reported in favor of continuing the
delegate system. consisted of Mr. David
Belnies, from the rand part of the city,
and Messrs. Coulter. Conner, and Tower,

SUICIDE.
Professor Von Oettinger, of Prussia,
has pirblished a work upon Moral Statis
tics and Christ nManners, In which he
.
handles the subj ' ci of suicide in an ethaua
tire manner. 1. cm a notice upon.: this
work, In the hiladelphia Ledger, we
glean the folio g: The statistics of the
Professor aro ed chiefly upon the tables
of France ande-+.lia, which ere probably
,
the fullest of an y nations in Europe. The
ratio of suicide. population, increases
faster than the ulation. Thin In Prua
PIA, to 1830, the umber of suicides re,
ported.was 1,187, and in 1805 it was 3,191,
which was two end a half times greater
than the ratio of ' create of population.
batFriece, the nu bees during the same
year. were res ively 1,739 and 4.700.
whic.b is more t nine times the ratio of
increase of the 'po Metier'. A part of. this
'apparent Increase s doubtless due to the
more accurate reports now-allays.
'ln Norway,the io of increase of sui
cides to population has long -been three
per cent., and in 81M0111 five per cent. per
annum, while the population has not in
creased faster than one and a half per
cent. The Professor discovered that the
frequency of suicides In any given year
depends upon the length of the days.
Thus, everywhere, there are more suicides
in Jose and July, and fewer in Noveinber.
December and January, than In any other.
months. In the former, the proportion is
eleven per cent.; and in the late, only six
and a half.
As means of self-murder, hanging and
poisoning have, during the past thirty .
years, become commoner than shooting',
and drowning. Drowning is, however, i
more frequently resorted to by women
than by men, and bp one out of every two
hundred fenialit Weida] resorts to shoot-'
lug. Of children under fifteen, It la found
that out of one hundred suicides among
boys, eighty-six hang themselves, while
out of one hundredsnicides among girls
seventy-one throw themselves Into the
water. Young men generally Alicia them- •
selves, and young women take poison.
Males of mature age often resort to the
razor, and women to the rope. It is a
curious feet thatbanging ia more common
in the country than in the town. And
when any greet sensation has been cre
ated by a particular case of suicide, there
is • loaqttently manifested - a tendency to
imitate it, but this is also the case with
regard .to other crimes. Among the
Scandinafians the number of suicides is
120 nut of each million; among the tier
mans 112; the French 101; Spanish and
I Italians 80; Slavonians 47. • In• all coun
tries three-fourths, of the suicides are
melee, and the tendency to, sell destruc
tion increases with age: A greater pro.
portion of widowed 'persona than of single
and of single than lof married resort to
this crime; !Mt tba of divorced. : or sepa
rated Is greater than all, being five times
se large as that of the married.
As regards the causes of suicide, the:
Professor thinks that one-third of the
awes of self-murder eradiated by men
tal disease, and this class includes nearly
half of thceeknmreitted by women; one
ninth are canoed by physical suffering;
one-eighth by losses of property, (nearly
all of these aro men); one-tenth by fear of
punishment, \ shame, or a morbid 'ten
science; about] as many by family quarrels;
and one-ninth by drunkenness, gambling,
and other vices; the number caused by
grief or disappointed love is 'exceedingly
small.
LAND on the Misslealppi is by no Mewls
real estate. A town recently found itself

'Working power does not simply imply
ability to make a noise, to utter sound
instead of sense, to boast and make a show
of force. Empty brans is more frnitful
of sound than solid gold: The little lien

ocean's swell is quiet. The engine that will
perform the most in a given time, and fot.
the longest period Is--the_ most noiseless.
Blustering men accomplish the least. The
hest business men are quiet, calm,, free
from excitement or' assumed thunder.
The gasconade spends all his force in
empty anti vain show of work. The use.

The lightning will pass oilmen, and un
heard along the copper rod. but will thun

river quietly pursuing its way to the
ocean. when obstructed will become the
roaring Niagara.
We have great faith in latent, or re

Not nly do we need time for work but

The constant and exciting contests in the

brought him 'to . a premature grave.
With a proper regard for the laws of life
the massive- Webster might have lived
longer and accompliabeil more. We well
remember the painful shock experienced
by the whole literary and scientific world
when Hugh Lliller..driven to madness by
excess of toil; took his own life. There
are times when men aro called on to ex
pose themselves to dangers and to death,
to perform unusual labors at the risk and
even certain eacrifice yf life. They must
then stand ht their lot. By their death
they can accomplish More than under or.
dinary circumstances they could by a long
life. So it was with the many thousands
who, in the late struggle, rushed to the
defence cf their country, when its life
was threatened. They died 'to save the
life of a nation. Stanton with his prodi
gious working Rawer, at his post day and
night, made himself a martyr for his
coantry. To his wonderful working power
and strength of endurance, and the dispo
sition to use them unselfishly fog his coun
try, we are, more than to any one man,in
debtedfor . our present security and pros

As a rule, however, it will he found that
those who have been eminent for learning
or usefultietts have attained a great age.

show an average of above 71; fifteen re

ty.seven men, eminent in science, who

this time, when there are so ninny calls

Neither have we any sympathy with those
who seem to delight in thinking they are

Power should be sought, not as an ulti
mate end but as a means of good. If in
ROT wry one could acquire the strength of

jest, then how contemptible would his
power appear In comparison with that of
the lion. or elephant, or even the recently
built C'orliss engine of 1,200 horse power.
Byron so used Ida lower of song, and Vol

prive ourselves of all power to WOrk, or
to be useful in the future, liv sinful indul

To secure then the greatest working
power, and use it the longest time for
some good end should ho' the object of
every one. Ta state all the ways in which
this may be done is not our present pur

.and increase their strength, and to this
ben' end use it wisely;—the feeble - should
seek to become strong, and never consider
their. feebleness a sufficient excuse for re
taxing all effortl.

The great 1116. of mankind, however; are

This Is. a world of unimproved opportuni

It wails the plant or animal, electric flash

How then shall it be used, Is the question?
The better the object on which It is ex
pended, the higher the life lived, the
longer will it he oars, the more distant the
infirmities of age, and the rester the
good done. The truth of this has been
demonstrated by the li'ves of . heroes, re
formers,saints and martyrs. Burke was
as yoting at 66 as Byron at 25. This is no
plea far laziness or ignoble ease in order
to pridonglffe. but for the greatest pos
sible amount of esefol labor that, can be
performed. Not for years merely do we
plead, but for Years tilled with good and
noble - deeds. '11) wear out not to rust out
should be our aim, and to wearozufhvisely
and judiciously.
All needless friction should be avoided
and thd machinery of life so kept in mo
tion that the largest and best results may
follow the smallest expenditure of force:
his harmonlouily should our 'powers work
that,our lives may flow onward 'like the
fertilizing stream that gladdens the moun
tain's side, enriches_ the }alloy's
and - causes even the desert to rejoice.
Then will there be no waste of - energy or
stredgth, no excess of enervating pleas
ure, but such use of- all our powers rut
becomes one who would secure his own
highest luippiness, promote the most
good, and show the deepest sense of ac
countability for his talents and opportuni

Members of the Graduating Close; thus
far in your comet yon have found that no
great attainments can be made or good
done without work, long continued, earn
est work,. Tolling you have grown strong.
You have, too, I trust, found - pleasure as
well as profit In work. As you now ,go
forth from these walls, and gather the
dust of life upon you, labors still awaits
you. And never, while life is yours, may
you by off the harness, or unbuckle the.
armor. You . haveput your hands to the
Iplow, and must not look back. Only when
n motion will your light shine.
To you, this day, this subject appeals
with deep solemnity. A great 'life work
lies ready for each one of you, and as
theie years of study have bce-n a prepara
tion for the work upon which you enter, ,
so the coming years may prepare you for
the life work beyond. To one of your num
ber the call hag already .come.,
While standing with you; and near
ly ready to enter upon his
life work, he was called to another greatf ield,
not of freedom front activity and toll, but
to enter as we hope on the delightful and
unceasing employments of another life.
Suddenly the messenger mine and with
badness you bore his lifeless body to the
grave, on the banks washed by the waters
of the beautiful • river. That day and
scene you will never forget. Could he
have bees spared, he was determined to
devote his life to the highest earthly
work; and could he, with the experience
he has now gathered, address you, he
would with the earnestness and solemnity
of eternity, say, 'S Work, work, work for
the Master,"
Even death will bring rest only to the
body. The spirit freed from its earthly
fetters will unceasingly go on exploring
wider fields, and making larger dis
coveries of truth. For in heaven "they
rest.not, day nor night." There God and
Christ work. "My father worketh hither
to and I work." Bat work there will be
comparative rest; for' the Spirit's, powers
will never be overtaxed, and no weariness
or failure will dutethe delight of those
Who become' workeritogitther with god.
