A RELIC OF BARBARISM.
Ma. Ijvii.' proclamation freeing
millions of UhkIum-u, and the Congres
sional enactment of the Wth Amend
ment conferring upon them ail the priv
ilege of citizenship, stand prouiineutlr
tioong the grandest acta recorded in the
minis of aH the nations of the world.
No work of greater magnitude was ever
cmceived by the mind of man than that
w ise, beneficent, humane, joJ like act of
the martyred l'nvi-lent, and ne law has
ever been passed by any legislative body
at all comparable, in point of justice, to
a downtrodden and outraged race of pe-
lignitv and right of citizenship. I'roui
the hour Uicy took effect, additional lus
tre has clustered around the (lag that
proudly wave over the homes of the
brave and the free.
But grand and salutary as have been
the result of the law of freedom they
have not materialized as yet to the extent
of their capabilities in the good work- of
destroying all the relic of a state of lar-l-aric
slavery. Vestige of that condition
nre infully present in many flection of
the only partially reconstructed South ;
and year may 1 retptired to entirely de
stroy all of the lingering relios.
Authentic rcorts from Mississippi,
tleorgia, both Carolinas, and other form
er slave holding States, leave no oHsible
room to doubt that thousands of freed
tnen are not onlv svstetnaticallv denied
the political rights extended by theXVth
Amendmetit. but are eoms?lleil to sail-
nut to a system of vassalage nearly a j rushing through some small bills w hen that
tyrannical and oppressive a the old eys- ; individual moved to go into Executive ses
tein cf liondage itself. The negro must i siou. The motion was lost, and then Mr.
not Is? permitted to change his place of j Uiddleberger's obttreperousni'ss became ag
residenoe, at hi own option, is the new- i gravating. He repeatedly interrupted other
est and latest phase of what is called
White Supremacy." This "White Su
premacy" has. in violation of all the pro
vision of the XVih Amendment, ami
tsintrary to the genius of American idea
of liberty, resolved that the negro in the
matter of emigrating to the West, lias no
right that the white men of the Siuth
are bound to recL Once in one of
the old slave holding States, he must at
all hazard remain there, is tlie unwrit
ten law that now obtains.
And this shamclul state of affair ha
obtained auch a firm fooling that it is
now maintained by violence and blood
shed. In several instance last week par
ties desiring to leave the South for more
remunerative Uelii or labor, were pre
vented from doing so by the whites open
ly shooting down sonic of the leader in
the colored msvetnent. In at least one
other case, w ithin a fortnight, an agent
from the West, seeking laborers, was
caught, maltreated and finally hung, by
a "White Supremacy" mob.
The only plea made in behalf of this
outrageous coercive policy, is that if the
neproe emigrate, it would leave the
South without mean of support in oth
er words, if the coloteI people leave, the
planter will have great difficulty in sup
plying their places, and, therefore, they
must stay whatever mar be their pros
pects Rw I xttering their condition. Is it
not strange th.it these st-fotis of the old
lavc-liolditit; autocrats of former years
want to keep the much despised African
among them ? Jtie would think from
their usual denouncement of the whole
race that they would gladly let them go.
rut it is another instance of history re
peating itself, l'haraoh-like. tbey must
lie kept from leaving Kgypt, though the
I led Sea intervenes. Is this not a relic of
the barbarism of slavery? Let tbe
"White Supremacy" change its tactics, by
treating their negro laborers aa human
beings, sy them fair, remunerative wa
ge, and give them the privilege of the
liallot-box the right to vote and tbey
w ill not want to emigrate. Tlie negro,
by the laws of tlie land, is to-day a free
man, and it is the imperative duty of tba
government to protect him, and see that
be has the right to go where he pleases,
just a hia w lute brother has.

owing to delays caused by the storm. They

But the rain, the mist and the storm did

RIDDLE BERCER'S LAST ROW.
Disgraceful Seen In the Closing
Hour of Congreaa.
Wahhinotos, March 3. The closing hours
of the Fiftieth Congress were signalized by
a disgraceful scene created by a disgraceful
member of tlie Senate. After sitting until 2
o'clock this morning, the Senate adjourned
until the same hour this afternoon and then
immediately took a recess until 8 o'clock
: this evening. Itvthat timeeopiousdraughts
j of fireweter had completely dethroned Mr.
niddleberger's reason. The Senate was
Senators and tried to secure recognition
without success.
Finally, shortly before t o'clock, be arose
and announced that he had this evening
telegraphed his resignation to the Governor
of Virginia, because he found that he had
no recognition in the Sjhate. Hewasawait
ingan answer to his diipstch. and lie hoped
it would come soon and relieve him from the
embarrassment of his osition.
A lew minute later he rose again, hut
was told to sit dowu. He talked on, how
ever, and the Chair filially ordered the Ser-geant-at-Arms
to anest him. Mr. Kiddie
berger's neighbors persuaded him to sit
down, but he was soon on hi feet again.
Mr. r..ii'.djy, the Sergiaut-at-Arms, tried to
( persuade him to go quietly, but in vain, and
at last siezed him by the coat and dragged
him towards the cloak room. He held to
his chair, and it required the aid of Captain
May. the Assistant Sergoant-nt-Arms. to
loosen his grip. He was then, amid slight
applause from the galleries, dragged igno
niiuiously to the cloak room, where he was
held in a chair, as he refused to leave the
building peacefully.
After he had time to regain his sober
senses a lii tie. Senators tjuay and Dawes tried
to reason with him, but he knew no reason,
and was left lying prone on a e.iuch guarded
by Captain May. Wlien the Senate at 10:45
took a recess until midnight Mr. Kid Ileber
ger expressed a desire (o go home, and be
was taken away in a carriage. Thus ended
a titling climax of Mr. Riddieberger's career
as a Senator.
Trr Covwrnor at One.
Chslitox, W. V., MarcU 1. President
Carr, of the Senate has retained Judge Fer
guson as his rouusel and on Monday will
qualify as Governor of tbe Slate. Gen. Guff
will arrive to-morrow or Sunday, and he
will of course also qualify, while Gov. Wil
son is equally determined to hold on to his
office ncul the contest is decided. Thus
West Virginia is to enjoy the unprecedented
distinction of having three Governors all at
nee.
Gov. Wibo:i and lien. GofT will leave the
matter to the Supreme Court as to who has
the right to occupy tlie Governor's seat
pending the con'est. thus avoiding a resort
to military interference, but what the eccen
tric "Bob" Carr will do is something no
mau can till.
Judge Ferguson gives it a bis opinion
Out it waa the duty of toe Legislature to de
clare the result for Governor, but as it failed
in tbia. t.fl has no legal ground npon which
... . ..... , , ,
to qaalify. and a ilson cannot bold over,
tlie President of the Senate musl assume tbe
duties.
Judge Maxwell, the Republican leader in
the lx;iliiture. said to-day that tlie fact that
the legislature failed to perform its sworn
duty don nut invalidate Go) claim, since
certificates from every county show him
e'ected. and it is Ida duty to qualify.

fium enr H-cial Canvaondenlj
Haiat aa, March 2. 1S39.
-J" here it a very great ilnl of wind In the
Huiiae. A certain number of member, and
there are not a lew of them. mut air them
selves on -vcnr uviasion. It sounds well lt
have it sat I they made a speech, and a mark
ed ro.y of the l.Tgialative Ktnl must ho
sant u the -h-sr contituecibi.
This continual talking must be stopped.
The Hons has itot come to that period to
limit tlie i'hes to fire or ten uiiiiutes,
but such will be tbe cm before the aeasiou
closes. Tal k is very cheap, and does not go
very Ur. Tlwre are tliijse wIkj insist that
the legislative Umird, on being cot, puffs
with wind. This is carrying t.'ie matter a
little too Cir, but it shows to what extent
the cuustant talker is regarded; many a
go-jd biii has bet a talked to death. One of
tbe m-Mt important questions tbe present
Ijislature has to wrestle with is that of the
Soldiers' Orphan bciiools. The fact wheth
er these schools are to be ched or continue
open, must be settled this session. The re
cent trouble at the McAlliaterville school haa
traued considerable excitement and private
discussion, and the fact that the Senate, be
fore it adjourned, passed aconcarrent reso
lution to hare a committee, together with
one already appointed in the House, show
thai tiie present Iegislatnr is in earnest,
and min to do something before it closes.
Kx Senator John M. Greer, of Butler, who is
Inspector, has been about Ilarrisbnrg for the
past few weeks, and waa sent to inspect the
McAliisterville trouble. Ills report to tlie
Governor is not very satisfactory, nor is it
ail that can be desired. This report is full
of interest, especially so when it is nnder-
J(0ud tljJ, IU,I)ector Greer belongs to what
is known as the Soldiers' Orphan School
I syndicate.
A recent paper says of this report : About
the moat imiortaiit item connected with the
hool the fuod furnished" the scholars
Mr. Greer makes no report, because he says
he does not know. When he was there.
however, the bread was not good and the
breakfast was bad generally, but the answer
to his complaint was that the cook was sick.
As so many of the boys bail been sick before
Mr. Greer's visit, this apology leave behind
it the uncomfortable suspicion that the
cook had been eating some of his own
dishes.
Insjiector Greer lets in a good deal of light
on another point. He recommends that the
children be provided with more and better
sitting rooms, carets, tables, chairs, lamps,
and plenty of reading matter. Also that
shops be provided with proper tools for the
employment of their leisure hours. He uses
the only forcible expression in bis report
when he says there must be more facilities
for amusement.
An intelligent man will scarcely have to
read between the lines oTthis all too friend
ly ri(ort to understand that on making a
visit, w hich was doubtless expected by She
school officials. Inspector Greer waa treated
to a bad breakfast and found the bread iu
use dark, coarse and undatable. It is fair
to presume from his other recommendations
thut he found the children crowded into
Moms without carpets, chairs, tables, lamps
or reading matter, and that no proier pro
vision was made for their employment or
recreation.
In view of what Inspector Greer did find
tit on his short visit, it is not so very strange
after all that an epidemic of insauity broke
out in the school. Children fed on unpalata
ble bread and other food and con lined in
such cheerless quarters as Mr. Greer indi
cates by bis reoimmendutions, might very
naturally be expected to become insane or
worse.
The weakest oiiit in Inspector Greer's re-
Hrt is his sugestiou of a remedy for bad
fissl. He rucommends that all the schools
make a weekly report to the Siiierinleudenl
of Orphans' schools showing the food fur
nished at every meal during the week ; that
it contain a suir.ncut that the children weie
given all they wanted to eat of the provia-
I i.. ktuti ttiv w,l ml that this rpmirt
be sworn toby the primiptt! in charge of
each school. In other words, the Squeers in
cl are of each syndicate school is asked to
report that the scholars had all the treacle
and sulphur they wanted and something to
sjiare, and to swear to the correctness of bis
own repirt,
Inspector Greer may be credulous enough
I to believe that tbe adoption of this reouru
mrtidution will result in giving the scholars
in the syndicate sclmoU good food and plen
t V of it. Xo one else would expect it to cause
a particle of improvement in this respect,
however. For this reason the Legislature
should adopt the only method left of gel tin
both schools and scholars out of the hands
of iheconsciencelcss scamps who have grown
rich by putting the State's bounty to its sol
diers' orphans in their own pockets. Let the
schools he closed at the time the existing
law provides they shall be closed, and the
fnul scandal arising from their mismanage
ment ended.
This.exiosition of the report is so full that
no further comment is needed. The worst
art of Insiector ureen's conduct is tbat he
is trying to make out that the boys at the
Mc.Vlislerville school are only feigning sick-
j ness iu order that they may get away from
school. It is hardly possible tbat such a
large number could play their part so well
as to deceive the medical men who were sent
to examine into tbe affairs of the school.
Just what the Legislature will do is a little
uncertain. There is a pretty strong feeling
that tbe schools should be closed entirely.
"They have had their day and served tlieir
usefulness," says Representative Pugh, an
old soldier; and there are many who think
with him. The recommendation of tbe
Grand Army encampment at Erie, held a
short time ago, that the schools should be
consolidated with a vie of closing them,
will have some force ; but tlie general opin
ion is that the schools will close with appro
priations ami stop the wholesale robbery o
w hat ought to lie one of the noblest and
grandest achievements of the State, that of
caring for the orphans of a brave and patri
otic dead, whose lives were sacrificed upon
the altar of tlieir country.
. The House met as usual at 8 o'clock on
Monday eveLing, and the usual buncombe
resolutions were o Iff red, among others was
one congratulating tbe country on the antic
ijiated premiership . of James G. Blaine in
President -elect Harrison's Cabinet. The res
olution was not well received, and on mo
tion was tabled. There are those who doubt
the wisdom of the new President's selection
of Secretary of Stale, and it is ye thought
by some that the statesman from Maine will
not enter tbe Cabinet.
i in Tuesday a number of bills passed fi
nally and among others was the old fcace
laa of 17m). After considerable discussion
the bill repealing the law passed finally, and
it now only a traits the signature of the Gov
ernor to become a law. Miller voted lor this
rcil, while Pugh was against it, unless
wuiie other substitute was offered to supply
the place of the old law, which, as yet, has
not been done. There is some talk of a new
fense bill originating in the Senate.
(In Wednesday and ThuLiy the usual
secomlary reading passed with the Usual
amount of talk, and then the question of
adjournment arose.
On Thursday afternoon an effort was made
to hold the House for an evening session as
well as F'riduy morning, hut to no avail.
The desire of a majority of the members to
get away to go home for tbe purpose of at
tending the inaiiguiation was so strong that
tliey could not resist the temptation to vote
for the adjournment, so there will be no ses
sion until next Wednesday evening, and
another week of tlie dear people's time is
gone, and little or no work done. After the
inauguration, if is lobe hojied that the rue ot
hers w ill get an imjieliu. and do much more
and better work.
Pugh. who has been absent for a week re
turned on Thursday ; be waa opposed to an
adjournment, but could do nothing to pre
vent It.

would bs compelled to sentence the defend
ant to pay a fine of not less than (), and
unaVrgo imprisonment in the county jud
Air not less than three months. John R.
Soott and J. C. Lowry. Esqr's conducted the
defense. The Commonwealth' was represent
ed by Messrs. Coffroth it Ruppel, II. S.
Endsley, Val Hay. F. J. Kooser, and A.C
Holliert, Esqr's. Tbe Common wealth's wit
nesses showed that Mr. Miller had been re
tailing cider, some of it sweet and some
soar, tsome of the witnesses thotrght that
tbe sour cider would make drunk if s suffi
cient quantity was consumed, '
Judge Baer instructed the jury that if
they (band the cider sold to have been either
vinous or spirituous liquor, it would be their
duty to convict tbe de-fcndant in manner
and form as indicied. The jury did not ao
find. Their verdict was, " not guilty, but
tlie defendant to pay the costs "
The next case taken dp was that ot Ed
ward Hoover, the Brudiersvaliey distiller,
charged with selling liquor without license.
Mr. Hoover had procured a license from the
Court, for which be uid $100. in June. lt,
which authorised him to sell in quantities
of not less then one gallon, at his place of
business in Brothcrsvalley township till June
1. 1S80.
The Commonwealth claimed that the de
fendant had sold away from his place of bus
iness, and for this he was indicted. They
showed tbat be had delivered jugs contain
ing whiskey at the express company's otliue
in Berlin, consigned to parties in Somerset
and elsewhere, arid claimed that the sale was
made st the place the defendant parted with
his goods. They also showed that Mr.
Hoover had taken orders for whiskey when
in Somerset and had taken the pay for the
whiskey at the time the order was given.
Tb Court held this constituted a sale at
Somerset. The verdict of tbe jury wasguilty.
A motion in arrest of judgment and for a
new trial was made in this case. The coun
sel fir tbe defense were W. II. Koontz, II.
1 Baer, and (ieo. R. Scull, Esqr'a. Messrs.
CotTroth, Ruppel and Hay were for the Com
monwealth. This was the last of the liquor cases for
trial, the others on the list being continued,
and it waa Fridsy evening when it waa sub
mitted to the jury.
CASK Or COLOR.
The next defendants put on trial were
Charles Brown and William Coofier, two
young gentlemen of color who, while ander
the influence of liquor, attempted to run
matters to suit themselves in the village of
Garrett, They came into conflict with some
of Garrett's citizens, snd aa a result were
both indicted for assault and battery. They
were both found guilty as indicted. Brown
was also convicted of carrying concealed
weapons.
James Hoover, a youth of eighteen year?,
was next arraigned on an indictment of lar
ceny. The bill of indictment charged James
with stealingtwenty-two dollars from Hiram
Wable, a farmer residing in Black township.
James plead guilty to the charge, after which
court adjourned till half-part eight o'clock
Saturday morning.
A ABOBTIOX CASS.
At the opening of the court Saturday
morning tbe case of the Common vce.lt h vs.
Ir. W. H. Meyers was called for trial. The
doctor was indicted for producing an abor
tion on the person of Miss Emma M. Berk
ley. The entire day was occupied in select
ing a jury and hearing the testimony in this
case. The court did not charge the jury till
the evening session. Before Ihcy retired to
their room they were instructed that if tbey
agreed uKn a verdict before 10 o'clock they
should order the bell to be rung and the
court would meet to receive the verdict ;
otherwise they should seal their verdict and
bring it into court Monday. The bill of in
dictment contained five counts, the first
three uf which charged that death ensued.
The jury came in at the opening of the
court Monday morning. Tlieir verdict was
"guilty in manner and form as the defend
ant stands indicted on the first three counts
of the indictment." Tbe balance of the
criminal cases were niJ-pmtti or continued.
The cases against Rev. Sell were among
those continued.

Is it War at Last.
Kiel, March 3. A rumor is curtenl in
naval circles here that a conflict has taken
place in Siraoan waters between an Ameri
can man-of-war and tbe German corvette
Olga. It is alleged that the American vessel
lired the first shot.
The American and German Legations st
Ixmdon have received no advices regarding
the reported engagement in Samoa between
warships of their respective G jvernmenta.
Secretary Bayard said to-night he had not
heard anything of the reported conflict. He
regarded such a conflict as highly improba
ble, as there was an understanding tbat
belligerent action in Samoa should be sus
pended pending the conference to be held at
Berlin. He also pointed out that it was
hardly possible that information of such a
state of affairs would be known at Kiel be
fore the news xt received at Berlin or
Washington.

Bright's Disease
A Ta-Year-0ll Child Saved after the Failure of fmr

My Utile girl, tea years of age. was taken tick
tn Msxrtl, ims, w itb scarlet fever. When recover
in site took a severe cnM, which developed
I'rigiit's Hisease of the Kidney's, llur ankles,
feet and eyes were terribly swollen ; she had a
burning fever and all the symptoms of an aggra
vated ease nf Bright's lt,ease. The best physK
elans attended her.
Her Lire Was Despaired Of,
But a mother's love and prayers surmount all dif
ficulties, and I determined to try Dr. liavidKen
nedy's Karorite Keiuedy. made at Rocdaut. K. V.
This was a last resort, anil I hoped, although the
ease ws a very severe one. that the Favorite Rem
edy would do for bet what It bad done for others.
How happy I am that I determined npnn this
course. The fever left her her appetite improv
ed -and one by one the weU-bnowa symptom of
the disease left her. Words fail to express my
gratitude, and I canoot too earnetly recommend
the Favorite Remedy- It wan
A MARVELOUS RECOVERY,
and Is due entirely to the Favorite Remedy, which
was tbe only medicine taken after her ease waa
abandoned by the nhysiciaas.
