.ll IXJK jKKIiV lil.At K's opinion of the
Iumocratic House .f Representatives was
xprcsecd, according to a Waidiiiigton cor
rt spondent, in the following emphatic
terms, lie was rcinor.i'.rating against the
committment of his client, KiIbourne,when
one of It 1 Democratic friends said : "Hut
Judge, we couldn't do dincrcutly.'1
' Couldn't do diilercntly !" retorted the
Judge contemptuously ; "couldn't do dif
ferently I All that the Democrats in this
House are after is garbage-garbage ; and
it wou't le loti'jr ls-f.rc you'll be thrown
out as garbage yourselves !'
TllK Southern Democratic jiajM-rs are
not all blind. "With what grace," the
Richmond ll'ie asks, "can the Democrat
of New Hampshire point to the sjieeches
of Messrs. Hill and Tucker as imprudent
wheu they selected a 'copperhead anti
war Democrat,' as their candidate for
Governor ?' The query is well put. The
Xorth cau turn out Democrats, in every
Stite and iu every county, who wr-re as
rebellious in heart and . as trni'orous in
act, according to their opportunities, as
either Hill or Tucker.
Thk Iuii-asier correspondent of the
Xew York Times classes liuckaJew, who
heads the Ieinoi ratic Electoral ticket, as
a Wallace man. The conversion must
have been very recent, then. Our convic
tion is that if Wallace's political lite de
jH'uded uiwn Ihickalcw, his head would go
off as quickly as IJuckingha.-u's when
Richard the Third captured him. There
may lie a truce that exist between a dog
and a cat who cannot get at each other.
Lancaster Convention-. The state
Convention of the iVmocracy held at Lan
caster this week was harmonious and the
proceedings and platform give universal
satisfaction Wutsout"irit Jlnnrd.
What a whopper ! If it had not !cen a
convention f modern Democrats, we
might have been induced to believe the
above, but as several were ejected from the
convention for their boiste rous conduct,
and many honest Democrats left tin- city,
and did not go into convention, it docs not
ccm like having Is-cn 'harmonious'' nor
that the proceedings give "uuiversal satis
faction. "
TllK new salary bill has not yet Ih-pii
passed by the legislature. In no way are
the people plundered to so great an extent
ns by the exaction of illegal fees. All
officers ought to he salaried if posible.
Silver. The Government has Mopped
the issue of fracUrnal currency with the
inleii'.iui of substituting si!( r coin for tlte
small noi-s of 10, 2 ami .".0 cents. Silver
bus become so much reduced in value, as
compared with gold, that it is not worth
more than greenbacks, or about 12 to It
per cent less than g Id. This has otca
sioaeu by the enormous production of the
silver niiues of Nevada, and the small
demand for exportation to China and other
places. The Com? tot-k lode, a silver mine
discovered in LSVJ, has already yielded
nearly three hundred millions of dollars.
Gold alone is now oonsidcrol the standard
of value in nearly all the great commercial
sations.

Dusiot UATic Platform. The follow
ing ik the platform adopted at the La'ucaTler
Convention on Wednesday of last week :
THK I'LATKORM.
"The Democracy of Pennsylvania in
convention met reasserts its oft rcjicated
declarations of devotion to all of the pro
visions of the Federal Constitution aud to
a perpetual union of the States ; pledges
itself to rigid fidelity to public trusts, to a
pure ati.freconoinieal administration of the
Federal, Slate and muuicipal governments;
to local self-government in every section ;
to the honest payment at the public debt,
and lo sound preservation of the public
faith. They see, with humiliation and
alarm, the evidences of bribery, fraud, nn.l
M'culation in high places ; the distress that
prevails, ami the wide spread financial ruin
that iuiiends over the jieople of the State,
and they charge that these evils are the di
rect results of the personal government,
unwise legislation, vicious policy, extrava
ance. and corruption of the Republican
party and its officials, and inviting al! of
every shade of political opinion, who be
lieve in official purity and fidelity, in the
adjustment J" financial questions upon a
sound basis, having regard for the interests
ol tin: wuo:e people aiut not ol a class, in
the recognition of the final settlement of
all questions submitted to the arbitrament
of the word, and in a policy which under
the Constitution keeps abreast of the pro
gess and civilization of the ::ge to unite
with them, they declare.
1st. That the civil service of the Govern
ment has become corrupt, anil i made the
objection ol iKTsonal gain, and infidelity
to public tiust has become the rule and uot
the exception. We believe that honesty,
capacity, and fidelity are the only tests of
fitness for public station, and that the
wholesome penalties of the law should be
used with rigor toenlorce ofiicial account
ability. 2nd. That the recent and repeated ex
posures of fraud and corruption in the ad
ministration of publi-j affairs call for a
searching and thorough investigation of
the condition if every branch of the pub
lic service, to the end that al! corrupt prac
tices may be brought to light and that all
who have abused their public trusts, what
ever may be their station, may be exposed
and punished, rind we urge those in charge
of this subject at Washington to a prompt,
thorough, and exhaustive examination of
their respective fi -lds of labor.
3rd. That retrenchment and economy
are indispensable in Federal, State and
municipal administration as an essential
means towards lessening the burdens of the
people, and we commend the eflorts of ihe
majority in the House of Representatives

Tde iK-inocratie papers say very little

-Ve. Editor : Please say to any of your
readers who may be thinking or coining
to Philadelphia to find work, that they
had better not come. The city is flooded
with men from all parts of the country,
who have imagined that the Centeuninl
vouId bring with it plenty of employment
for everybody ! They have forgotten the
fact that thousands of good workmen, re
sident in ihe city, are now out of employ
ment because of the stoppage of the wheels
of industry in foundries, mills, shops, and
stores- and while the exhibition has given,
and will give, work to thousands, yet the
supply already far exceeds any possible de
mand. The new comers are not only bit
terly disappointed, but worse, for their lit
tle means is soon exhausted, and they are
driven often to the very verge of starva
tion, while hundreds have to seek the shel
ter of the station houses, or walk the
streets the whole night long.
In response to an inquiry made of the
President of the House of Correction, the
following has just boen received :
Office of 'The Hocse of Correction.'
PiiiLADELiiniA, March 0, 1ST.
John Waxamakeu, Esq.,
Dear Sir : In reply to you: favor of the
2Sth ult., I have had prepared the enclos
ed statement, exhibiting the number of
admissions to this Institution during the
mouths of December, January, and Feb
ruary last, and also the proportion of
that number who were committed at their
own request.
Of twenty-two hundred and forty-two
(2212) admissions, no less thnn eleven hun
dred and fifty-one (llol) were self commit
ted. The supposition that, as a class, the oc
cupants of the House of Correction are
those who seek its food and shelter only to
avoid labor is erroneous. On the contrary
as a rule, they work cheerfully enough,
even at the hardest and most disagreeable
out-door employments stone-quarrying;
ditching, etc., though in very many cases,
the men have been educated to clerica
rather than to manual iabor.
The result is, therefore, startling, as an
iudjx of the overcrowded condition of
many branches of industry. and I can fully
endorse as excellent, the idea suggtsted in
your note, namely, to urge through the
columns of the country papers, young men
to fin, )rl,tir t'iCi mr, and not crowd to
the city in anticipation of obtaining em
ployment, at least at the present time.
Yours, truly,
WILLIAM GULAG Eli,
President

A CENTENNIAL I'.LCN DElf.
All sorts of schemes are on foot to raise
money for the centennial. There is to Ihj
a preat ball the 27th of nest month for the
purpose of :ttinjr a few thousands. 15y
the reports from the committee of the cen
tennial, it seems as if the women of Ameri
ca were Hot to have anything lo show ex
cept pictures. There" will not be wall
space enough for all that are sent. All
right. Mrs. Washington spun and wove
cotton dresses striped with silk raveled
from old stockings for her family ; and ihe
Winslow women, who are justly entitled
to be called the first ladies of the country,
as they came over among the first to Mass
achusetts, were clever at embroidery and
bead work, but their descendants have no
such skill to display, or are not to be al
lowed to display it. All that the executive
committee of the centenuial want to en
tourage in women is the ability to sculp
auu paint, jnow a plain man may tie ex-
cused for putting in a word here. I believe j
that I speak the sentiments of a good many I
people oi tlie oest class in saying that visi
tors to the centennial would be greatly in
terested to sec all departments of woman's
work represented there. They would like
to see such relics of needlework as were left
by women of revolutionary times, who
were notable house-keepers, and boasted :
skill witli tleir needles that will show j
creditably at even this lapse of time.
There is uot an old family in the country '
which has not treasures hoarded up of lace i
and sampler work, knitting :md embroidery i
that is, pictures by the needle, and fancy !
work whose uame is legion. We staid, !
conservative people would like to refresh
our ideas of old times by comparing these
dainty reminiscences with what our right
clever daughters and s:sters can do. We
would like to see the finest evidences of
skill in every department of woman's labor
exhibited, to the credit and encouragement
of the industrious as well as the glorifica
tion of the gifted. There is too much of a
notion abroad that it is unbecoming to be
expert at hou.e-keeping. that all a young
uomeu is to think fit to devout herself to is
C-iusie or art, forgettina that not one in a
thousand has talent euougii in either direc
tion to bo worth training, but that all
women can be taught to be good house
keepers and good dressers to appear well
themselves and to m;ike oth.u-s comfortable
about them. The highest ladies iu Eng
landthe Princess Louise and the Princess
Christian ainony ihem lmve institutid n
School of line netd!e-woik in London, to
which no woman has the honor of admit
