The Somerset Herald.
WKPNESPAY, April 18. PCX
Joiix R Linn, Ksq., of BclTinte
has been appoiuted Deputy Secretary
of the Commonwealth, vice A. I.
Rfixaeiii,.
The Legislature passed, aud the
Governor has 6igued a bill repealing
the cumulative plan of voting, at
elections for borough officers.
Tue Governor has approved the
bill making the pay of jurors two
dollars jter day and mileage. This is
now the general law of the .State.
Lyman P. Gilbert, of Harris
burg, has been appointed Deputy
Attorney General of this Common
wealth, in place of Jons C. Knox,
Esq., resigned.
The Governor has appointed J.
Montgomery Foster, Esq., of Har
risburg, Commissioner of the Insur
ance Department lately established
by act of the Legislature, and the
Senate has confirmed the appoint
ment. Mr. Foster, by his experi
ence as clerk in the Auditor Gener
al's office, has acquired an intiniute
knowledge of insurance business, and
is thoroughly qualified to fill the po
sition. One of the last bills passed by the
Legislature was an act providing for
the election of a State Treasurer in
October next, who shall assume the
duties of his office in May 1S74.
This will permit the present State
Treasurer l. Y. Macky, Esq., to
holdover until that date. Mr. Macky
has proved a most capable and effi
cient officer, and his continued occu
pancy of the position will be accepta
ble to the people of the Slate.
Toe Republican victory in Rhode
Island proves to be a most substan
tial one. The majority for Goveruur
is nearly six thousand, the legisla
ture is largely Republican, and al
though the Republican candidate for
Lieutenant Governor failed of an
flection by the jeople (there being
three candidates) he will le elected
lit the Legislature. So as usual
Rhode Islaud has done well very
well.
A Wahingtou dispatch of Mon
day says: The estimate for the pres
ent fiscal year of the receipts from
the tax on distilled and malt liquors
and tobacco was placed at $7.r,000
000. Two months and twenty days
remain of the fiscal year, and yet the
actual revenue from these sources to
date is $83,000. In the general to
tal the receipts from other source
will exceed the estimate many mill
ions. The indications are, therefore,
that the internal revenue will quite
equal that for the fiscal years of 18
J1 and 1872, and if it does not exceed
it, notwithstanding the reduced tax
ation. A recent lumberman's circular es
timates the numWr of railroad ties in
present use in the United States at
150,000,000. A cut of 200 ties to the
acre is above rather than under the
average, and it therefore has requir
ed the product of 75,000 acres of well
timbered land to furnish the supply.
Railroad ties last about five years ;
consequently 30,000,000 ties arc used
annually for repairs, taking the tim
h t from 150,000 acres. The manu
facture of rolling stock disposes of the
entireyield of 350,000 acres.and a full
supply of nearly 500,00 acres more,
every year. It appears, then, that
our railroads arc stripping the coun
try at the rate of 1,000,000 acres per
annum ; and their demands arc rapid
ly increasing.
After a session a little exceeding
three month?, the Legislature ad
journed fine die on Thursday last
(10th) at noou. The body was not
one inducive of large State pride, but
on the whole, it was respectable in
character, and its sessions were mark
ed with more than the usual aver
age of harmony. Like the work per
formed by its predecessors there was
much of unwise if not intrinsically
bad legislation, mixed up with the
good, which may be partially excus
ed on the ground that never Ix fore
was there so ranch pressure brought
to lear for the procurement of per
sonal local and speculative laws, the
puperinducting causes being, the
probability that under the new con
stitution all legislation of this kind
will be strictly prohibited. The un
precedented use of the veto power by
the Governor, compelled by the Lasty
aud unwise action of the body just
adjourned, speaks volumes in its con
demnation. Legislators arc but hu
man, and subject to all the frailties
of mankind, and while we in nothing
cstcuuate their faults, we deem it
neither just nor honest to indiscrimi
nately condemn the body that has
passed away, we have had worse as
wc have bad better men in the "Gen
eral Assembly of the State of Penn
sylvania." For the good laws enact
ed let us all be truly thankful; and as
for the bad, neither grumbling nor
abuse, will prove an antidote. The
people must reckon with their ser
vants, and to them we transmit the
settlement. It is due in this connec
tion, to express the opinion, that the
general action of our own immediate
Representative, is commended by
the people he was chosen to repre
sent. Complete returns of the electiou
in Connecticnt.give IxgrebollD-cui-ocratic
candidate for Governor lead a
tna jorilj ot Three thousand four hun
dred and and forty-five (3,445). The
Senate etanda eleven Republicans to
ten Democrats, and the House one
hundred and nine Republicans to one
hundred and thirty-two Democrats.
In the First district; II a wly (R), is
lected by 1250, Second district Kkl
it (R), by 500, Third district Stark
weatueb (R), by 1549, Fourth dis
trict Babnlm (D),by 1C75.
The Xew York Time places the
result 1 the election in us inn- iigm.
. . . i
'It is due (it st) toloc.il quarrels
and Republican apathy r -ulting
from that cauc. That Mich is the
facl is shown by the result o i Con
gressmen, the Republicans ic-eleet-ing
General Hawley in l! e First dis
trict by "bout 1,300'J majority,
aain.-t his former majority of C43;
Mr. Kellogg in the Second district by
about (500 against 2! when he last
was u candidate, and Mr. Stark
weather, by about 1,.'00, against 1,
i'i two years ygo. On the other
hand, the Democrats re-eleet(d Mr.
Rarnum in the Fourth district, by
about 1,0.00, against 1,1 si in 1ST2.
These facts show that while Repub
lican disaffection on the State ticket
has given the Democrats the right to
claim a victory on local issues, the
result on Congressmen declares the
Republican party to be as strong as
ever on national issues." In thus suc
cinctly stating the facts we hope wc
trust "wc shall not interrupt or lessen
in any degree the rejoicing of our
Democratic brethren. They have
elected their Governor in Connecticut
and as such an opportunity for
crowing has not been vouchsafed
for pome years, let them be jubdiant.
"Crow, Chapman, crow!"
Ox the eve of its adoption the Con
gressional apportionment bill was un
expectedly changed, and among oth
ers Somerset Cpunty is placed in a
partially new district.
The district as it now stands un
der the law, consists of Somerset,
Bedford, RIair and Cambria counties.
The annexed table shows the vote as
polled for Governor last fall.

This district we presume will be
generally acceptable to the people of
this county. We were formerly con
nected with Cambria and Blair in a
Congressional district under the ap
portionment of 1S52, an l our party
alliances were undisturbed and har
monious during a period of ten years.
While we regret to part with our late
party allies in Fultcn, Franklin and
Adams, with whom we have always
been on the iuos. amicable terms, we
yet are forced to confess that the
new district is more homogenous,
more conmaet. and its people more
nearly allied by ties of social and bus
iness, as well as political interests.
We hope to be soon in direct and im
mediate communication with Johns
town by rail, and then when the
coal fields of Somerset, and the im
mense ore deposits of Cambria, Blair,
and Bedford are thus virtually
brought together, we will not only
have one of the largest iron produc
ing districts in the Slate, but a com
munity of interests that will ally us
so closely in business and political
relations as to prevent all minor caus
es or local jealousies from continued
harmonious action.

repeated beatings and knock downs
and the child being put out of doors,
in the coldest weather, and kept there
until its feet w rc frozen ; that the

filed the information against him.
"Oh, she is not dead yet." At the
close of the examination the justice
held him for trial. Sams not being
able to give bonds, the justice allowed
him to go at large on his promise to
appear for trial. Sams immediately
left the country, and parties at Smyria
arc preparing to prosecute the justice

CI KTIS A N I Cl II. SERVICE.
At length the letter of resignation
sent to the President by George
William Curtis has got into print
showing that one of the causes of his
resignation, was the belief that the
spirit and letter of the civil service
regulations had in some instances
been abandoned by the executive in
certain important appointments. Mr.
Curtis is now feeble in health and the
terms of his resignation shows that
while he possibly may be raising a
political sail to the windward for his
own future lieriefit, he assures the
President of the continuance of his
most earnest efforts for the success of
his administration.
The constitutional light and duty
which the President is sworn to sus
tain puts the responsibility of these
important appointments, not upon any
civil service board or scheme of selec
tion by subordinates, but upon the
President himself, and whenever the
civil service regulations fail to perform
the duty of appointments according
to the liest interests of the country,
the President would be recreant to
his oath if he did not assume the re
sponsibility of making them himself.
There are and always will be, defects
and objectionable features in any set
of arbitrary rules for the appointment
of Government officials that can be
adopted, and no one here pretends
that the present regulations are perfect
in their operation. On the contrary
a large number, perhaps a majority of
the people of the Country, think them
unreasonable and unfair. If Mr.
Curtis chooses to stand by them and
resign his post because they, in certain
excepted cases, are waived, let him
see what he can make by it. The
country will not sustain him.butit will
sustain the President.
NEW JAIL.
We are erecting a fine District jail
to take the place of that upon
Judiciary Square which has proved
inadequate for many years past. A
class of minor criminals are now
employed in breaking stone and
otherwise preparing the foundation
wall for the new edifice. The pun
ishment of the greater offenses are
now carried out at the Albany, N. Y.
prison, ami the risk, expense and ex
posure of transporting convicts de
trains -c, have to be incurred by the
authorities in charge. This is dis
graceful to the Capital of a great
nation and it is a matter of congratu
lation that fat last we will have a new
jail suitable to the demands of the
age and of our civilization.

On Monday evening the House
passed the joint resolution to adjourn
on the 10th of April.
As is always the case tnucl. im
portant Legislation was Jefi undone
until the last, and had to be hurried
through, often under a suspension of
thcrulcs and witn little consideration.
Under such circumstances it cannot
be wondered at if Legislation is often
crude and imperfect.
The public calendar was taken up
in the House on Monday afternoon
and a number of bills were acted on.
The bills granting an honorary annui
ty to such judges ot the Supreme Court
who had served on the Bench the
full term of fifteen years and to judges
of other Courts who had served
twenty years if over sixty years at
time of retirement was lost by a vote
30 yeas to 57 nays.
This bill being disposed of, Mr.
Elliott, who had vacated the Speak
ers Chair and placed therein Mr.
Newmcyer, of Allegheny moved to
consider Senate bill Xo 1371, without
reading the title of the bill.
The Speaker pro lent, at once put
the question and declared it agreed
to. Forthwith a scouo o', the wildest
confusion ensued. Many members
believing it to be an attempt to pass
some bill under the gagrule. Nearly
half the members rose to their feet,
shouting at the top of their voices to
catch the attention of the Speaker.
Uproar and confusion prevailed. Loud
.Ties were made by some for the Speak
er to leave the Chair while some were
for driving him out of the Hall alto
gether. The Speaker on his part or
dered by name several ff the most
violent members to take their seats
and called on the Sergant at Arms
to remove them from the Hall if they
did not.
After a time order was somewhat
restored, when it appeared that the
title of the bill was an act to provide
for the election of a State Treasurer,
several members at once said they
had no particular objection to the
bill but that it should not be forced
through. The Speaker on his part
said there was no intention to prevent
a full discussion of the bill, and to
I satify all a motion was made to sus
! pond the rules and agreed to by 71
i yeas to 20 nays arid the further con-
sidcration of the bill past until the
next day, and so ended one of the
I most disgraceful scenes ever witness

April II. The city of Sua Salvador,
capital of the Central American Re
public of that name, has been des
troyed by an earthtpiake. Eifrht

000,000 worth of property was des-
i lrovid A PfiTiilflerrntion toilitwmniil I v
,r(;kc OI)t all(1 nnis.hMl what little the
earthquake had spared.
For Rcvcr.ll days previous to the
catastrophe slight shocks had been
felt, but no serious apprehensions
were entertained. It was on the
afternoon of the 4th of March, about
half past four, almost without warn
ing, that a great part of the city was
reduced to little more than ruins.
The grotiud heaved as a ship in a
gale, terrific thundering burst from
under foot, walls tottered and were
rent in many places with wide
crevices, roofs sunk and tiles, Ac,
were precipitated to the ground ;
while lamps, pitchers, basins, glass,
tvc., were overturned and broken.
The scene is described as being a
fearful one. Those who escaped
death from the falling walls of build
ings hurried from the city, but many
were overtaken by the (lames and
perished. The stampede of men,
women, children and animals was
terrible, the latter trampling to death
hundreds of helpless people.
The city of San Salvad.rr is situated
on a small stream which flows into the
Pacific ocean, one hundred and sixty
five miles southeast of Guatemala.
Its latitude is 130 degrees 44 minutes
south ; longitude CO degress 8 minutes
west It stands lietween wooded
heights.in a well watered vale several
thousand feet ubovc the ocean and
about three miles southeast of the
volcano of San Salvador. The crater
was more than half a league in cir
cumference, and In-fore the earthquake
was partly filled with water. It rises
1.000 feet above the table-land on
which it stands. The city of San
Salvador is said to have been found
ed in 1523 by Spanish emigrants. It
has at different jieriods greatly suf
fered by earthquakes, especially in
the vearslC59 aud 1854 when it was
nearly destroyed. The population
before tlie last catastrophe numbered
18,000 eouls. The town was regular
ly built, contained several churches
and convents, and was the scut of a
bishop. It was a depot for sugar aud
indigo, and had sonic manufactories
of iron wares and cotton goods.
IIARKISKURG.
IHHfcE.
Hauuisiji k;, April 7th, 1873.
Mr. Ballantine Mr. Speaker, I
rise on a privileged question.
The Chairman The gentleman
will btatc his question of privilege.
Mr. Ballantine On last Friday, 1
visited the Govcrrior.in company with
a number of gentlemen connected
with the oil refining interests of Pitts
burg, to procure favorable action on
a very important bill, which had pass
ed both branches of the Legislature
by an almost unanimous vote. On
returning to this chamber I found the
Clerk calling the yeas and nays, aud
I voted, as many gentlemen on this
floor have often voted, "No," to be
on the safe side of any hasty legisla
tion. I was surprised to find it was
the pet bill of my friend Brockway
of Columbia, the libit: law, w hich 1
intended to support. Having voted
with the minority, it is my privilege
now to move a reconsideration of
that bill, which I now do,' aud I hope
that every gentleman who then voted
for the bill will do so again now, and
that those who, like myself voted
under a misapprehension, can vote
again and pass the bill.
Mr. Mahon, of Franklin I second
the motion to reconsider the vole on
a final passage, because I am in fav
or of a wholesome law which will al
low the press of the State, to expose
official villainy, w hether in the Slate
or smaller municipalities, and of all
classes who make it a business to
swindle the community. But this
bill throws open the gale too w ide.
Whilst the better portion' of the press
might not abuse the large privileges
given in it, yet it is well kuown that
there are many men in that profes
sion, as in all others, who would, un
der the cover of this bill, blacken the
reputation of any man or woman in
private life to gratify the malicious
promptings of an evil heart, and
then, under the provision of this bill,
he can first set up the truth in evi
dence, and that failing, he can fall
back on the false plea that he was
conscious of the rectitude of his own
intentions and no one suffered any
harm. If a man's past life as a pri-
van; viutii nas 1101 oeen wuaiii
has not been what it
.-hould have hecn, what earthly goo.l
id to he aeeoniiilihed hy allowing; the
pre.3 to gil.het him hefore a (juitk le-
citling puhlie, and place the old scan-
daU of the past hefore every woman
and child in the land? If this nriv-
ilege is to he legalized, and practiced.
the reformation of fallen men will be
few and far between. If this bill is
properly amended, as I suggested to
the gentleman from Columbia, in the
(jeneral Judiciary Committee, I will
support it.
On the motion to recommit the re
port of the Conference Committee mi
the Appropriation bill, Mi. Rrown, of
Erie, suggested the propriety of in
structing them to strike out the Uni
versity of Philadelphia, $100,000, the
Jefferson Medical College of Phila
delphia, $100,000, and the appropri
ation for the Vienna Exposition,
000. Ry striking out these two then
all charitable institutions will he oi. a
efpial footing. Either put
out or put all the others in. I am op -
posed to allowing these two rah IMiil -
adeIphiainstitutionstoKobh!eup?20a,

charities of tlie State. If I mistake
not, this Philadelphia University has
lately sold their lot to the United States ;
for half a million dollars for a new
postoflicc site. Why should we give
thenj ? 100.000 more? Xo one in
either branch of the Lerrislrtnre has at
tempted to explain it, and I hope the
western members will stay here till
the 'dojr days" ho fore they will
yield one inch from the position we

sent in another batch of veto messa
ges. There was a disagreement in the

One of our exchanges gives the

The building was of brick, the roof
supported by arches, and at the time
of the accident which caused the fire
there were more than two hundred
men at work. Some idea may be
gained of the extent of the establish

The whole of the buildings, together
with the machinery, were entirely
destroyed, and the probable loss is
placed" at $200,000. It is reported
that there is full insurance, the major
part of it being in Eastern companies.
The origin of the fire was the full
of one of the arches supporting the
frame work of the roof. It fell
upon the furnaces, and the
wood being dry, caughf fire
