Judge Woodward on the Debt.
In the House of Representatives at
Washington, recently, Hon. George W.
Woodward of the Luzerne district made a
speech on the finances, debt, Ac., of which
the[following is a synopsis:
He scoffed at the idea that a national
: debt was a national blessing. Debt was
no moie a blessing to a nation than it was
Ito an individual. The great load of the
national debt was standing now like a bid
' ecus spectre in the path of Congress. It
might he well enough for a monarchy like
England, but be trusted that the simple
Republican institutions of the country wo'd
not fall under the control of a moneyed ol
igarchy. Everything that tended to the
consolidation of power, was inimical to the
system of American liberty. Referring to
the question as how the principal of the
five-twenties was to be paid, he saiJ that
the gentleman from Massachusetts [Mr.
Butler] was not faithful to the cause he
had espoused, when he admitted that the
indebtedness of the government incident to
the act of 1802 must be paid in coin be
cause it was contracted on a specie basis.
That reason would apply to the millions of
private debts which had been paid in
1 greenbacks Did not the gentlemen know
that the courts had decided that the act of
1862, the legal-tender act, applied to all
antecedent debts, public ar.d private ?
If Congress had power to make such en
actment, then certainly the holders of the
five-twenty bonds had no more right t*
claim that they should be paid in gold than
I all other creditors. So long as two species
' of legal tender was k pt up in the country,
! differing so much in value, he should vote
for paying all debts not expressly except
ed in the cheapest of those tenders. If the
most meritorious creditors of the govern
ment were paid in greenbacks, then, in his
judgment, greenbacks were good enough
1 for the bondholders.
But he did r.ot believe that Congress
had any constitutional power to make
1 greenbacks a legal-tender. He knew that
! the courts of last resort in various States
; had declared the act of 1862 (the h-gal
i tendpr act) to be constitutional. So it had
1 The Supreme Court of the United States
had not yet passed on the question. So
far however as the courts had decided, he
felt himself bound to consider the act as
I constitutional.
, lie would, therefore, for the present
vote Lr app!) ing it to all debt*, pufflic
1 and private ; but believing it to be an evil
7 ( example, destructive of that good faith
■ . which should belong to all countries, vio
lative of the constitutional lights of citi
zens, at d not within the delegated power
of Congress, he would vote to wipe all
such stains out of the statue book. The
! effect of repealing that bad legislation
.; would be happy. It would take away the
ugly question started by Mr. Pendleton ;
, t because, instead of leveling the bondhold
ers down to other creditors, it would level
the other creditors up to the bondholders
jlt would bring the country back to gold
and silver, the constitutional currency. If
i the law were repealed by easy stages it
would occasion the country no shock while
, it the law happened to be knocked on the
head by the Supreme Court, the effects
I might be disastrous. lie was in favor of
taking immediate steps for a gradual re
peal of a law that had done the country
i more dishonor and injury than any other
j enactment. After showing the disastrous
effect on the financial and industrial inter
ests of the State, and by the legislation in
i reference to them he calied upon the bond
holders and the officers of the 1,650 na
i i tional banks to be prompt to learn the
facts he had referred to. Those highly
respectable and powerful classes of mon
I eyed men had heretofore for the most part
throw n their votes and influence in favor
of the do voters of negro suffrage. Would
they consent to do so ? Would the tinsel
of epauletts, or the lighter metal of loyal
speeches, still attract them in the same
direction ? If so, they might write "Ich
abod" upon their bonds and upon the
walls of their banks. In conclusion, he
' said that his constituents, who were loyal
to all the true interests and glories of the
country, were opposed to all schemt.* of
repudiation, for repudiation would be a
stain which they would feel worse, than a
wound. They demanded a restoration
of the excluded States as white States, and
; not parti-colored ; the demanded a repeal
lof the cotton-tax, and of all the laws de
priving them of the immense profits form
erly derived from cotton.
They wanted no restoration of slavery
! and had rw> thought cf assuming the
rebel debt, but they wanted to live in un- j
ion with the white people of the South;— i
to obliterate the bitter memories of fra- |
tcrnal strife, and to be co-workers with I
them in redeeming the credit of the Gov- '
crnment by paying all its debts in gold an J '
silver coin, and in developing the great '
resources of the country. All legal tender
laws and reconstruction laws, so-called,'
they would dismiss to the winds, with each
State fully restored, and with no miserable
test oaths. They would leave negro suf- 1
frage, and all other domestic questions, to
the unrestrained will of their respective I
States. Thus he represented his constitu
ents as he believed they would have him
| represent them.
THE PROPOSED REPLCTION OF GENERAL
HANCOCK.—A bill is now before the Rump
Congress to reduce Gen. Hancock below
the military rank necessary to enable him
to act as a district commander By such
despicable means the traitors in Congress
expect to bring back a reign of terror and
military tyranny in Louisiana and Texas.
In regard to this infamous scheme, the
New York Times [Republican] says :
"Congress proposes to degrade General
Hancock from the rank of Major General,
because his course in the Department of
New Orleans does not meet the approbation
of the majority of that body. General
Hancock won his rank by such services to
his country in the battle-tield as few men
ever perform, and such it is a disgrace
for any public man in this country ever to
forget. The men who propose to take this
action in regard to Gen. Hancock are the
very men who insist most loudly on the
duty of gratitude to the soldier; but they
keep their gratitude to the soldier strictly
subordinate to their party interests and
party zeal. The propose'! measure is utter
ly unworthy of Congress, and discreditable
to the party which brings it forward."
GILLI3 VS. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD
Co. —It will be remembered that on Sept.
I4th. 1866, while the special train bearing
President Johnson and his companions was
stopping at Johnstown, a large platform
belonging to the Pennsylvania railroad
company gave away, precipitating the peo
pie upon it a distance of twenty feet to the
ground, and resulting in the death of sever
al persons and the injury of perhaps three
hundred others. About two hundred and
twenty of those injured, instituted legal pro
ceedings against the company. Among this
nnmbcr was David Gillis, whose case was
made a test case, and was tried last week
resulting, under the instruction of the court
in a verdict for the defen lant, on the
gronnd that the company was not bonnd to
maintain a structure more than sufficient
for its ordinary purposes.
Gcorga Francis Train,in a dispatch,gives
(be following account of his arrest :
"Have just been arrested by the British
Government. Was seized on the Scotia
immediately upon arrival out. Have told
the Derby Cabinet that the American ul
timatum is ; Payment of Alabama claims
and release of American citizens, or war."
Parties in authority state that Tiain was
not arrested for complicity with the Feni
ans, but for debt.
Thad. Stevens' destruction committee
have hatched out another abomination in
the shape of a bill to deprive the Supreme
Court of jurisdiction over cases arising un
der the so-called "reconstruction" acTs.—
The prominent Rads swear that they will
perpetuate their hold on power by any and
every means. Having long been lcgislat
ing "outside the Constitution," they have
ceased to inquire—Can we do this lawful
ly ? All they ask for in a bill is—Will it
assure to us perpetual supremacy ?— Ex,
STAMPING DEEDS.—The revenue offi

alty for omitting to stamp, or for not stamp

about one hundred deeds which had eitiier
been improperly stamped, or the stamps en

ADVICE TO Yorxo MEX. —Let the bus
iness of every one alone, and attend to
your own. Don't buy what you don't
want. Use every hour to advantage, and
study to make a leisure hour usetul.
Think twice before you spend a dollar—
remember you will hav£ another to make
for it. Look over your books regularly,
and if you find an error, trace it out?—
Should a stroke of misfortune come upon
you in your business, retrench, work hard
er, but never fly the track. Confront dif
ficulties with unflinching perseverance, and
they will disappear at lust, though you fail
in the struggle, you will be honored ; but
sbriuk, and you will be despised.—Ex.
How FASHION DETEKMINES THE
VALIEOF Fens. —The following is the
introduction of a fur dealer's advertisement
in the Toledo papers: " Just a quarter of a
century ago I entered the fur trade, paying
18 cents ibr mink, 22 cents for nruskrats,
and 82 for little,yellow martin skins. Dur
ing these twenty-five years there has been
some wide ranges of prices. I sold a lot of
mink for SBOO that now would have
brought 824,000. Then, again, I have sold
a lot of corn for 5i3,000 that in London
to-dav, would not bring 82, 000. The little
martn skin is now worth the same price as
a yellow dog skin—two shilling. The opos
sum has been from three*cents to sixty, aud
now down to eight cents. War has been
one cause of these fluctuations, but that
mightier power than armies—fashion—has
done the most. While the combined armies
of Europe could only put down coon and
skunk 50 per cent,that powerful goddess
fashion, rnn the 18 cent mink up to 810,
and knocked the b'g-black lynx muff down
to four shillings. If I sbonld be fortunate
enough to sec my golden wedding in the
fur trade, I expect to be shaking the black
skunk skiu—worth more money than the
mink."
THE Radical papers at Harrisburg an
nounce that Wayne McVeigh is a candi
date for I nitid States Senator. He is a
son-inlaw of Simon Cameron. If Simon
could buy a scat in the Senate for himself,
what is to hinder him from buying one for
his son in-law. It w jll only be aqueslion
of dollars and cents if the Radicals have a
majority in the next Legislature.
No sooner had Stanton secured posses
sion of the War office than he repaired to
the pay clerk and drew $ 3,000, as pay for
the time he was suspended. This is in per
fect keeping with the recognized head of
the plunder gang. An ex M. C., frotn
l'erry county —a gentleman of his own
party, but rather rough of speech—once to
his face called him a "hog," and there is no
doupt uow that he deserved the tctm.
From the Boston Transcript
THS MUHLBACH NOVELS. —Last Sum
mer at the sea shore, when the weather
was unfavorable for walking on the beach
es or strolling in the rocky pastures, I
used to while away many an hour at the
public library of G ,in idly turning
over the leaves of familiar volumes, and in
studying the folks who came for books.
44 I soon saw that the good people of
G , like the good people of evciy oth
er town or city in the eivilized world, were
gr eat readers and admirers of novels and
romance I found that Louisa Muhlbach
was, a prodigious favorite with these fisher
folk. The poor librarian was dreadfully
pestered with their incessant demands for
the Muhlbach novels, and was weary of
lepcating that they were all out, and that
she knew not when any of them would be
in. Pretty little Miss P , a Minerva
in spectacles—a veritable Criehton in pet
ticoats—said, in one of her learned and
long confabulations with the librarian, that
Scott was prosy and Dickons silly, hut
Muhlbach was 4 splendid.' And to Miner
va's praise of the Muhlbach novels, the li
brarian heartily assented. I was not long
in discovering that not to be an admirer of
these German historical novels, argued yon
to be, in the estimation of the literati of
G , a person of no taste or clever
ness.
44 4 As goes ITull, so goes the State,' and
in the admiration of the Muhlbach novels,
as went G , so went the country. —
There is now a real Muhlbach furor. Her
woiks are The ladies dote
upon them, and talk rapturously of 4 the
charming Muhlbach.' She is the favorite
of the hour, and the darling of the novel
reading public.
<4 'Tis certainly no small pleasure to sit
down quietly of an evening in one's own
room after the day's toil is over, and by
the magic of a book,' visit distant lands,
and meet face to face such great historical
ncTsonages as Frederick the Great, Marie
Antoinette, and Napoleon Bonaparte. And
how better 'tis to make the acquaintance
of the Empress Josephine and Marie An
toinette than of Aurora Floyd and Ladv
Audiey! If, like Miss P———, above
mentioned, readers prefer Muhlbach to
Scott and Dickens, I shall not think any
less of the 4 Waverly' and 4 David Copper
field ;' but if they read Muhlbach in prefer
ence to Braddou, Wood & Company, I
shall think the novel-reading public is not
wholly devoid of taste and common sense.
44 Indeed, the remakable success of the
Muhlbach novels teud to show that the
public is beginning to tire of liigb-spiced
mental food, and that the popularity of I
the sensational novel is on the decline ;!
and in fact so great has been the populari- j
ty of Miss Muhlbach's works, and such a
demand have they made fjt the historical
novel, that her American publishers, the
Mosscrs. Appleton, of New York, are
about to issue 4 Count Mirabeau,' and the
other historical romances of Theodore
Mundt.

health 1 Do you feel weak, debilitated, easily

organs, or your kidneys, frequently get out of order ?
is your urine somctiises thick, milky, or flocky, or
is it ropy on settling ? O' dors a thick SJUUI rise to
the top ? Or is a sediment at the bottom after it

blood to the hea 1 ? Is jwur memory impaired ? Is
yout mind constantly dWlUing upon this subject?
Do you feel dull, listiess, moping, tired of company,
of life? Do you wish to be left alone, to getaway
from everybody ? Does any little thing make you
start or jump? Is your sleep broken or restless?
Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant ? The bloom
on your cheek as bright 1 Do you enjoy yourself in
society as well ? Do you pursue your business with

Your back weak, your knees weak, and have but

Now, reader, self-abuse, veneral diseases badly

energetic, persevering, successful business men are
always those whose generative organs are in per
fect health ? You never hear such men complain of
being melancholy, of nervousness, of palpitation of
the heart. They are never afraid they cannot suc
ceed in business; they don't become sad and discour
aged ; they are always polite and pleasant in the
company of ladies, and look you and them right in
the face - none of your downcast looks or any other
meanness about them. Ido not mean those who
keep the organs inflamed by running to excess.
