ffii)c 3effcrsonian. THURSDAY, TJAH.CH 30, 137G. 1KVESTIGATIOX. The Democratic brethren in Congress have fallen back solidly on investigation. A few weeks of experience have taught them that as legislators they were likely to prove a lamentable failure, and that if they would save themselves from the fate of deserved obscurity they must strike out in some other vhsnncl from that which they were especially elected to Coat in. The next thing in im portar.ee, as they conceived, was the setting out on voyages of discovery the nosimr into arid turning over the past, in hopes of find ins something which would furnish them with eclat, and, possibly, make as auiunition in tha approaching Presidential campaign. With this object in view a movement was inaugurated to set the various committees to work, and to appoint others so as to expedite tho investigating business and secure ail the possible grand results attainable ere it would bo too late to m ike these results available for the success of the Democratic party. And here, in the ofistart, the leaders of the party met with a surprise which well nigh threw them off their feet they found others as will ing and anxious for investigation as they "vera themselves. The Republican members, en ni'isse, seconded and voted cheerfully for every movement of the kind, anxious that if peculators and peculation existed in olilee the gaiify might be discovered and punished. For years, charges cf corruption had been made by Democratic presses and leaders against Republicans in high places, and though Republican congressional committees investigated, because their investigations were without damaging results, owing to the fact that testimony, if in existence was in posses ion of Democrats and purposely withheld, r.ll reports of facts which did come before them were denounced as mere whitewashings ot the gul'ty. It was this which made Repub licans display cot only a willingness, but an anxiety to join Nomocracy in its thorough filling cf the eondm.-t- of the government, and ith adttermina'ion to "let no guilty And the surprise of Demo Delknap case vil- tO do It. W ijan escape. craey thereat was so complete as to almost prove stunning. Thus far the e5brt3 in this direction have proved effective in unearthing official-vi'lamy, and the country is brought to the blush over the rascality of at least one man in high pkee, win has heretofore held not only partizan but general conQderiCC. 2iTor is it at all probable that this is all the villainy that will be discovered, if Democracy in Congress does not so egregious'y blunder in what is yet o be done as it did in what has already beer. (Lne. Over the result of the there was no less rejoicing at unmasked lainy in the Republican than in the Demo cratic ranks, an 1 the demand for prompt punishment of the culpirit met with not a dissenting voice. And yet owing to Demo cratic stupidity or the childish exuberance of Chairman Ciymcr, it is more than proble matical whether ex Secretary Belknap will ever meet his just deserts. Like a child tickled with a new f-.uud toy, or like a silly psrtizan fool, in hopes cf working on the re fcultofan approaching State Election, ere t-ven the important facts before the commit tee were confirmed, he bruited out the doings of the committee, and, under the lash of the pievious question, prevented consideration as in order to eminent, no matter if it be the President himself, the cry wells up from the throats of Republicans every where in shape of a de mand that to each one shall be measured a full measure of punishment in just accord ance with bis descrt3. Without thi3 the let ter of law becomes a humbug, and investiga tion for the discovery of and punishment of crime a by word and a reproach. From present appearances, Congressman Blaine's assertion, that if frauds upon the Government are to be punished Democrats will have to hand them over to the Republi cans, is likely to prove more than a simple repartee, for while Democrats hunt only for amunition to be used in their behalf in the approaching Presidential campaign. Repub licans are really earnest for the discovery, punishment and suppression of crime. f;2rThe "funny man" of the Stroudshurg Jejj'ersonian trots out Governor II art ran ft as his candidate for the Presidency. Tno slate is all fixed up, and Pennsylvania will have her share of the chief places under that regime. The following nre already fixed upon, accord ing to the Jeff. : Secretary of the Treasury', Robert W. Alackey; Secretary of the Navy, that "old salt" Fish Commissioner Reeder ; Attorney General. William 15. Mann: Post master General, Theodore Schoeh. Yerkes and Marcer are to be the "financial agents" of the government. Enstoa Argus. Correct Mr. Argus as to our advocacy of that tried and true patriot and statesman, Gen. John F. Hartranft for the Presidency, but mistaken as to all the rest. We have never tried our hand at cabinet making and do not mean to begin now, and besides we retired to private life permanently some ten 3-earsago, when President Johnson organized his bread and butter brigade of hungry oGice seekers, of which the Democracy furnished t TV so many anxious memocrs. v it Ii llartranlt for President we should have no fears as to the quality of his cabinet. Pennsylvania's experience would be the Union's experience an excellent President and a council of advisers beyond reproach and possessed of a qualit3r of statesmanship which would reflect credit upon the country. JC2? A bad shape our Democratic brethren are m just now, witti two ot tticir most prominent candidates for the Presidency, Hendricks and Pendleton, on the shelf on suspicion ot svriaii.es on tiie government. This cuts their choice down to Thurman, who is financially opposed by the majority, Black whose past record would drive away thousands of Union loving votes, and Sam. Josephs, who has not yet mad j up his mind whether it will be an honor to accept the Old newspapers for sale at this office. -m- Easter comes on the 16th of April this year. Wsr. Davis ' Esq. and S. Holmes, jr., were in attendance at tho Supreme Court in Philadelphia last week. Farmers say that neither the fruit nor the wheat crop has been injured by the winter weather. What a terrible , time roaches, bed bugs and other household vermin will have on Saturday next. Moving day, you know. No imperfect material put into the car uients manufactured by Wanamakcr & Brown at Gth and Market streets, Philadel phia. Notary Public. Gov." Hartranft has appointed John S. Fisher, Esqr., of this Borough, Notary Public vice William Gunsaule3. Doyle, who was convicted at Mauch Chunk a few weeks ago, of the murder of mine boss Jones, has been sentenced to be hung May 4th. Mrs. E. L. Wolf, of Scranton, spent several days here last week, visiting her daughter Mrs. Dr. Foulke. A very nice girl it is too. Weight unknown. nomination or not. It is singular, but our distinguished neighbor over they way ha iiot yet assayed a howl over the Hendricks and Pendleton contretemps not even a groan over the unlucky discovery of their rascalities. Well, Democru'-y can control itself with one reSection that if they cannot unite upon a Simon Pure of their own kindney there 12 a possibility of another Liberal coalition which is just as well, because just as promising of success. A letter arrived at the Post Office a few days ago, addressed to "Bashful Bushy." The address was beautifully executed, by a beautiful girl and bearing the post mark of "Allentown, Pa.," Who is this "Bashful Bushy?" Respectfully referred to the "Mo Joes." William Guxsaules, Esq., late Clerk of the Stroudshurg Bank, and family, left town on Monday last, for Washington, N. J., at which place lie will take position in the First National Bank, as clerk. 31 r. G., has tho well wishes of our citizens for his future prosperity. How about the cisterns, Borough Fathers. Are we longer to tempt destruction to pro perty by neglecting their erection. They need not be expensive, but they might easily prove our very salvation should we ever fall a victim to accident, or the torch of the in cendiary. They cannot be erected a day too soon. The members of Fort Pcnn Lodge No. 134, 1. 0. O F., are cordially invited to be present at the regular meeting of the Lodge, on Saturday evening next. Business of im portance will be transacted at this meeting, and it is hoped that all who feel an interest in the welfare of this organization will attend. Profitable Seed. In the American Stock Jouanl for April we notice an account of the Chester County Mammoth Lorn which yields such larjrc crops. Any person can tret a sample and price, also sample copy of the American Stock Journal, (SI a year,) by sending six cents to Potts Brothers, Parkesburg, Chester county, Pa., and asking for them. Two hundred bushels of corn to the acre i3 not produced by all seed. Reorganizing of Borough Council. In pursuance of the Act of Legislature of March 10, 1S75, the meeting for the reorgan ization of the Borough Council, when the new members will take their seats, will be held at ten o'clock on the first Monday of Artril. which will be the 3rd, and the Chief t - - t Burgess will be sworn in at noon the same day. Blanks containing the oath and certificate attached, suitable forswearing in Overseers of the Poor, Town Council, Supervisors, &c., can be had at this office. The Pittsburg schools cost last year S978.9S3.41. Special ISTotice. Every other thing being equal, the cheapness of an article is a great recommendation. It is IiouikI to decide the purchaser, lie would be foolish indeed who should pay more than he need, for an article for the simple sake of pay ing! In buying clothing, which is quite an item in one's personal and family expendi ture", cheapness rules t lie d.iv, and ought to. At Wanamaker & Brown's Oak Hall, Phila delphia, it is certain that the purchaser buys cheaply. Cheapness, with every other excellence accompaning it, is the very basis of their enor mous business. KEYSTONE DRUG STORE. Pr. S. L. Foulke & J.

MARRIED. A MAT tR 0 F POPULA R INTEREST. 57 The Democracy are moving heaven and earth to rescue "gentleman George II. Pendleton" from the vortex into which his Kvntucky Central Kailroad swindle has plunged hiiu. Thus far, however, their efforts have been in vain. Every explanation they oiler for his conduct is met by a counter explanation which has the effect only to plunge him deeper in the mire. It is hard for them to give up this, their most bfilliant candidate for the Presidency, but we fear to what shot d be done dc well and certain! suits ? Impeachment than when the n: order to have it . And with what re is no nearer to-day ;n for speachnient was first advanced in Congress; the consideration of the case by the grand jury cf the criminal Court of the District of Columbia wasindcG nitcly set aside if not permanently disposed cf, for want of evidence and because of the tenderness of Clynicr's dignity which preven ted him from furnishing the necessary testi mony ; Belkmp, self confessed of the crime, h in a fair way of escaping all pains and penalties; New Hampshire which was expec ted to be operated upon by the discovery of Belknap's crime to the extent of an over whelming Democratic victory, has expressed her continued ccnQdenec in Republicanism 1 y giving an overwhelming victory to tholle Vublicans. Of what avail is investigation if all its results are to be thus nullified by the criminal fully of the investigators. True the; result iu New Hampshire is notexcrutiating-! ly torturing to any but the ravenous Demo cracy, while it is a most pleasing pill for honest Republicans everywhere, but it is a shair.e, aye a crime, that men's stupidity ehould thus boldly and brazenly stand in the wcy of a prompt wiping out of the disgrace ic3;ctcd upon the country by a dishonest offi cial, by prompt and severe punishment. Nor does the future of the investigations under Democratic control promise to be an improvement on the past. As they progress leading Democrats loom up as confederates in crime, and in proportion as these rank in importance in the party, the cfTorts of the investigators vane. Thus Pendleton, with his Kentucky Central railroad swindfe, and Hendricks with his Catling gun fi isco, have operated as a wet blanket to chill the ardor of Clymer & Co., to such an extent that thry have hardly had time to think of any thing else than how to let their friends down gently, without interfering with their attempt to overwhelm their partisan enemies in confu bion and crime. "Let no guilty man escape," ceni3 to form do part of the animus ly which the Democrats are governed in the pro&ecutioo of their task but how bcstfchall we at once punish our enemies and at the same time screen our equally guilty friends, appears to be the desire by which the' are governed. "Let no guilty man escape," is the cry of every Republican in and out of Congress, and hence whether friend or foe is ta'iht in the toiki of crime ig-ainst the Cov- thcre is no let up for them, have to stay down. George will 5?Rea!!y Amaxdus Oretus, you are too "funny." That paragraph referring to David Keller, Jackson Lantz, Theodore Schoeh, Gov.

A PARTY of our townsmen thinned out the suckeis of McMichals creek to the number of between five and six hundred, on Friday last. It was jolly sport, and the after feast ing was particularly fine. Snow fell to the depth of four inches here abouts on Friday night last. On Saturday, for a change, we had a cold rain, which was anything but agreeable to pedestrains, and not overly pleasant even to stay at homes. At Trenton, N. J., the Court of Pardons has, in the case of Patrick Ward, who was sentenced to be hung at Belvidere for killing a man named Miers, ordered a communta tion to imprisonment for life.

Many of our most re Gned and beautiful belles were present to carry their part in the 'Tight fantastic." The happy party dispersed as the wee sraa' hours approached when the gentlemen con ducted the fair ones home, where wc leave them consuming coal and gas at the expense of the old folks. Scranton received, tried and accepted a new steam fire engine from the Clapp & Jones manufacturing company, at Hudson, New York, on Friday. The steamer is of the same make and class as our own "Poco no," and in its purchase they have shown wisdom. The "Third City" i3 now the owner of three of these necessary aids in the protection of property from fire. We shall be much mistaken if this last purchase does not prove the most valuable of all. Scranton is just now cursed with the prose nc 3 and Cenuish work of incendiaries. Within a week the Catholic Nunnery School building, several dwellings and stables, and the magnificent Opera house, the last involv ing a loss of $150,000, have fallen a prey to the fiendish, diabolical work of these mis creants. Mayor McICune, on the advice of the City Councils, has olTered a reward of $5,000 for the detection and conviction of any one concerned in setting fire to buildings. Extra policemen and patrolmen have been appointed, and the streets are nightly guard ed.
