THURSDAY, MAY 11, 1876.
Our distinguished neighbor over the
way devoted nearly half a column last week,
to ex-Secretary Belknap and his lino of de
fence, in which ho is particularly savage on
the unfortunate Secretary and his crime of
interposing any defense at all to shield him
i'lom the penalty for his misdeeds. Foliti
cally and socially Belknap is dead, and it
matters not whether the Senate impeaches
liiin or not, he will never be heard of again
outside of the locality in which he settles
down, unless reference is made to him in the
future as a caution to evil doers.
But there is a little matter on State ac
count which might, with more than ordinary
show of reason, have engaged our distin
guished neighbor's attention, but which he
.seems really to have considered of no moment
morally, politically or otherwise. But then
this time it is a Democrat who is the culprit
and his case .would hardly serve as an evi
dence of Republican corruption. We refer
to the case of Martin F. Lynott, a member
of the Penusj-lvania House of llepresenta-
tives from the Cth district of Luzerne county.
Martin was expelled from that body for con
fessedly taking a bribe on the celebrated
boom question ; and not only a bribe, but
two bribes one from those opposed and one
from those in favor of the bill. And not
a alone was Martin; but another of like
proclivities one Petroff, of Philadelphia,
preceded him, not exactly for taking a bribe
but, as he alleges for pretending to take
one. These splendid specimens of Demo
cracy are thus disgraced and disgrace their
constituency, and yet a Democratic journal,
which is continually discovering motes in the
eyes of its opponents, does not think their
crime worth even a passing notice.
There is a lack of consistency here which
we much regret to find in our distinguished
neighbor. If it is criminal in a Kepublican
office-holder to accept bribes in exchange fur
the patronage in his gift, it is certainly crim
inal in a legislator to betray his constituents,
who sent him to Ilarrisburg to protect their
interests, by selling his vote to the highest
LiJdor.
As we insinuated Lynott' s companion in
crime pretended that he merely made believe
to sell his vote, in order to discover and
expose those disposed to bribe. Lynott insis
ted that his accepting a bribe was only a lit
tle indulgence in fun. Perhaps both were in
earnest and told the truth in making these
assertions, and, after all, the idea of the
Philadelphia Times many be correct; that
the expulsion by the House of Representa
tives was but punishment inflicted out of
sheer indignation, for having a profitable
Luoiness thus spoiled on their hands, andbe-io-re
their greed for money making in this
way had been half satiated. That may well
be the case, and indeed is more than likely ;
and the silence of our distinguished neighbor
may be the result of an admonition that '"the
least said the soonest mended." Butthe peo
ple will want to hear about these things
neighbor, and it is best that their wishes be
gratified. "Let justice be done though the
heavens fall," and while you are pointing
out all the corruptions of the Republicans,
do cot neglect to spice the thing by giving
an occasional note to one of the many cling
ing to the skirts even of the immaculate
Democracy.
which ruled under the management of the
great Democratic fathers, Jefferson, Madi
son, Monroe and Jackson. Wc hope the
President's reply to the resolution proved
satisfactory to the inqusitive House, and its
inquisitive Democracy.
JGgfThe Pennsylvania Legislature ad

people had reason to rejoice over an adjourn

ment of a Democratic House of Representa
tivos indulged in many years, and, unless
all the signs of public indignation fail, the
experiment will not be repeated in many
years to come. The closing hours of the
session were in keeping with the general
character of the meetings, and failed only by
a hairs breadth in culminating in a first class
row.
CafThat was a severe squib which our
distinguished neighbor indulged with re
ference to the mule, last week. Wonder if
the reflecting influences of a looking glass
did not intervene between our neighbor's
vision and the outside world.

Car The recent message of President
Cirant, in reply to an insulting inquiry resolu
tion of the house of representatives, touch
ing the President's absences from Washing
ton, was a cutting notice to the hou.se to con
fine its attention to matters which lie within
its legitimate sphere. The President might
have confined himself to the simple admoni
tion "mind your own business," and the
house would have been well and justly
auswered. But he chose to go farther, to be
more explict, and he did well. He estab
lishes, without a doubt, that there is neither
law nor reason for the great hue and cry
which has been raised by Democracy general
ly over his sojourn at Long Branch and
elsewhere, and shows by precedents set by
all the Presidents, from Washington down,
that his course in this respect is not at all
singular. The law lequires certain duties of
the President These Presideut Grant has
never, in a single instance shirked; but
whenever and wherever the necessities of the
Government found him, they found him
ready and prompt for the work. That blund
ers have marked his administration will
hardly admit of a doubt, but lack of prompt
ness was not of these, nor is there reason to
thiok that anything but right in the perfor
mance of a duty was ever intended. To
show the custom of former Presiden ts in this
respect, the President furnishes the follow
iug information :
Washington was absent from the capital
during his term 1S1 days, and signed official
papers frequently at points remote from the
teat of government; during his four years
John Adams was absent 3S5 days ; during
his eight years Thomas Jefferson was absent
790 days; President 3Iad;sou 037 days ;
Presideut Monroe 70S days, aud transacted
official business wherever he happened to be
President John Quincy Adams 222 days in
four years ; President Jackson 002 days, and
tigned his famous order for the removal of
the deposits from the State Banks, while
visiting Boston; Van Bureu J 31 days;
Tyler 1C3 days; Polk 37 days; Taylor
days; Fi'more CO days; Pierce 57 days;
Buchanan 57 days :
From this it will be seen that President
Grant was not the originator of the sin o
absence from the National Capitol, if sin it
is, and that the most brilliant of his
cxamplars, are those most often referred to by
Democracy, when boasting of the good times
The installment of the Pastor of the
Presbyterian Church of this place came off
on Thursday last, the 4th inst. The Rev.
R. M. Wallace, the newly elected pastor was
formally installed by a committee of the
Presbytery of Lehigh. The Rev. S. W.
Knipe, of the Delaware Water Gap, presided
and proposed the constitutional questions.
The Rev. 3Ir. Jenkins, of Shawnee, preached
the sermon ; the Rev. Mr. Tully, of Portland,
charged the Pastor, and the Rev. Mr. Van
Allen, the people. The services were deeply
interesting throughout, and were attended
by a large congregation of people.

A kleptomania epidemic appears to
have seized upon this section of country, and,
wc are really beginning to assume the pro

have, this week, with regret, to add a robbery
and attempted burglary to the catalogue.
On Frida' last Thomas A. Hefferman,
took involuntary quarters at Hotel dc Shfaer,
charged with stealing sixteen bushel of wheat
and one hundred and sixty pounds of screen

Smithfield township. The wheat was brought
to this place and sold to Wallace & Garduer.
Of course the evidence against Hefferman is
inclusive. At the hearing the only show of
feeling exhibited by the culprit appeared in
the desire expressed by him to the Constable
to "go out and get a drink."

Beethoven's Trip to IVasIiIng
ton, Acw Jersey.
Thursday last marked an important epoch
in the history of our much admired Beetho
ven Band, which will long be remembered by
it3 membership and friends. The day
inaugurated two events in its history of no
mean importance, to wit : A first appear
ance in the bands new, tasty, nobby uniforms,
and its march from home to exhibit its skill
before and enjoy the hospitality of strangers
and critics. The day was cool and peculiarly
fine, and the start augered just such a time
as parties in pursuit of pleasure delight to
enjoy ; and it is a cause for congratulation all
around that in no one sense did disappoint
ment rear its hideous head to mar the general
enjoyment.
About 11 o'clock, a. m., the Beethoven's,
accompanied by a large retinue of friends,
took up the line of march for the Depot,
wheratho' were soon seated in the cars, and
without any happening of material import,
at 1:30 p. m. reached Washington, N. J.,
their point of destination. Here they were
met by the Washington Band, at whose
invitation the visit was made, and a Com
mittee consisting of the following named
gentlemen : Maj. S. W. Ilcrrick, P. R.
Winter, J. E. Fulper and O. B. Sigley,
Esq., Editor of the Washington Star.
At once a procession was formed with the
Washington Band on the right, Beethovens
in center, and the band chariot with honor
ary members and invited guests to bring up
the rear. A street parade was then indulged,
which proved a perfect ovation to the boys,
doors and windows filled with the handsome
smiling faces of Washington's lovely daugh
ters greeting them at every step on their
way. Arriving at the Bauds head-quarters,
the Beethovens were welcomed in a neat
speech, replete with pleasant sentiment and
hearty hospitality, by Maj. S. W. Ilerrick,
which was happily responded to, on behalf
of our boys, by D. S. Ijcc, Esq.
At about 4 o'clock, after rest, refreshment
and sight seeing, the line of march was again
formed, when both bands and their friends
proceeded to the Van Doren House, where
the enterprising proprietor had prepared for
them a supper, which would have made even
the gods themselves feel happy. Of course
it was relished aud appreciated by the hungry
crowd which partook of its dainties. Supper
over the time was pleasantly spent in looking
around, forming acquaintances, and enjoying
social chats with those already formed, until
the toot of the whistle announced the ap
proaching train, and all was bustle to get
aboard, though none but regretted that the
day and its pleasures proved so fleeting.
Soon we were again on our winding way,
homeward bound, and if the cars of the good
people of Washington the staid denizens,
the genial laddies, and the loving lassies, all
included failed to burn that night, then iu
deed must signs occasionally fail, for their
praise was upon every lip, and the memories
of the day the pleasant theme of all.
At about 8:30 Stroudsburg was reached,
but the end was not yet. Here, our own dear
sisters and sweet hearts appeared determined
that we should not retire to the land of
dreams with the delights of Washington as
the last of our delightful recollections. A
glorious surprise awaited us at the Beetho
ven head-quarters. A most magnificent
support invited us to further dissipation, and
when the innncr man was satiated all felt
that the measure of the days happiness was
uli to overflowing. For this portion of the
programme, which wasw holly a surprise, the
Band found itself indebted to the Misscss
!la Keller, Jennie Sanford, Gertie De-
Young, Sue. Van Busknk, Ilelleu Mclick,
Ilellen Wyckoff, Alice Sehoonovcr and
Laura Whitesell, all of whom deserve and
lave the bands most heartfelt thanks. A
number of invited guests participated in this
ast part of the days doings, and joined
icartily with the others in the pleasures of
the mazy dance, which naturally rounded off
the closing of the day so auspiciously begun.
During the evening Mr. Simon Fried was
called upon for a speech and in his usual
lappy way gave a most entertaining account
of the band's visit to Washington, which
wreathed the faces of all in smiles aud brought
brth round after round of applause. M. A.
De L. Van Horn, Esq., on behalf of the band
and its honorary members returned thanks
to the ladies for their kind reception and as
by their sympathy aud esteem they had aided
in making the Beethoven the best of Comet
Bunds, he hoped they would help each
individual member to become one of the
best of hitsbands.
Au incident of the day worthy of mention
was the glorious serenade vouchsafed by
Prof. J. II. McCarty to Hon. John Savage,
IIou. James B. Sheridan, Justice Marine
Court, New York, Conductor Henry Smith
and others. The honorary membeis who
accompanied the Beethoven's on their trip
were Capt. Rennet, David Keller, Simon
Fried, D. R. Brown, A. B. M click, J. II.
McCarty, D. S. Lee, J. II. Schoch and
some seventy-five others, all of whom joined
with the boys in the opinion that it was a
day, taking it all in all, worthy of long re
membrance. All that is wanting now, to
make every thing complete, is "a chance to
get at them Washy boys," aud serve them
the same way.

The Rev. Charles I. Thompson who was
station in this place during the years 1859,
1SG0, filled the pulpit in the M. E. Church,
of this place last Sunday morning and even
ing, to the delight of appreciative audiences.
Mr. Thompson is an eloquent and forcible
preacher and has lost none of his old fire and
energy by long use, though the bloom of
early manhood has somewhat faded, and
gray begins to claim the right to rule in
dark brown's stead.
Ox Thursday evening the Cornet Band
were out serenading, and on Saturday after
noon they made their first appearance in their
splendid new uniforms. On both occasions
they acquitted themselves admirably, and
during their parade were much admired for
their precision of movtwent and soldier like
bearing.
At a stated meeting of the teachers of
the Stroudsburg M. E. Sunday School,
held on Sunday, the 7th inst., the follow

C. D. Brodhead, Superintendent ; John
B. Storm, Asst. Superintendent ; Nelson
Peck, Treasurer and Librarian ; Edward
Brown, Jr., Secretary.
George E. Stauffer, proprietor of the
Keystone Iron Works, East Stroudsburg,
was very agreeably surprised last Monday
evening. It was his fortieth birthday and
a large number of his friends called at his
residence in the evening provided with all
the necessaries that make up a festive oc
casion and greeted him so earnestly and
warmly, and so unexpectedly that he will
no doubt carry the memory of this occasion
with him through the rest of his life. All,
together, spent a very pleasant evening.

John Savage, Esq., who has been
sojourning on his farm, near Spragueville,
this county, for several years past, recruiting
his health, has been appointed chief clerk fo
the Marine Court of New York City, at a
salary of $4000 per annum. The appoint
ment could not have hit a cleverer, more genial
or better fellow, or a more competent occu
pant, even if he had been specially made for
the position. We unite with his many
friends here in their congratulations over his
appointment, but if it is going to take him
away from ui altogether we regret that the
appointment was made. John is an uncom
promising Democrat, but he is one of the
few of that ilk not spoiled by their politics.
