i•he Twentieth Distriet--.A. Serienw
lenity".
A bill is now before the Legislature, for the
purpose of separating Juniata county from the
Ninth Judicial and attaching it to the Twen
tieth District. The controversy involved in
this proposal, has elicited many, very many
grave facts in justification of the change. One
of the main reasons, as a matter of ecomony to
those interested, is the fact that Graham,
President Judge of the Ninth District, resides
in Carlisle, a locality remote from Mifflintown
—so distant, in fact, as always to preclude
the possibility of the Judge to arrive on the.
first day of each court week. The delays at
tending such failures have long been a soarce of
vexatious embarrassment and heavy elpense,
throwing the county into great costs and com
pelling plaintiffs and defendants to incur an
outlay which has in more than one case
proven actually disastrous to the course of jus
tice. If Juniata county were attached to the
Twentieth Judicial District, all these expendi
tures, delays and embarrassments would be
avoided. Judge Woods, of the Twentieth
District, lives at Lewistown, which is but
twelve miles from Mifilintown—a vast differ
ence between the distance from Carlisle.
While the people of Juniata county hue
their claims to a change in the Judicial dis
trict an considerations of economy and facility
in the proceedings in their courts, they allege
other and weighty reasons in justification of
the change. All who are acquainted with
Judge Graham know him to be a partizan of
the mostmalignant stamp—a bitter, unrelent
ing and persistent adherent of the most de
based school of copperheads—who has not
hesitated to insult loyal men appearing before
him for justice, and whose partizanism has .
been carried to such a distance, as to compel
many of the citizens of Juniata county to incur .
great loss, before they will trust the adjudica
tion of their claims or the settlement of their
rights to his judgment. This is certainly a
woeful condition of affairs. There is nothing
like it in the history of the ji i i.dieifiry of the •
Commonwealth. It cries aloud not only for
amelioration to the citizens of Juniata county,
but it suggests that a Judge so forgetful of
his honor and oath, should be forced to come
down from•the bench which he degrades—sur
render the ermine which he has. soiled, and
take his place where he belongs, among the
pot-house politicians of the patty in whose
fealty he thus sacrifices all that is dignified,
pure and impartiaL
—The whole subject is now beforfithe Leg
islature. While it is being considered - in that
body, we have ventured thus to call public at
tention to the facts involved, not that we de
sire to interfere with what appears to be an
entirely local difficulty, but that we might
write a word in favor of our suffering friends
in Juniata county. So far as the principle
involved is concerned, it interests all men that
the Judiciary should be preserved pure, and
that our Judicial districts be so , organized,
geographically, as to meet the wants of all the
people. We repeatsthen, that we trust the
change thus asked for will be speedily and
gracefully authorized by the Legislature.
lEurrope'a Danger and Our Security.
Latest advices from over the water represent
a bitter conflict in progress in the British
Parliament, upon the subject of the Danish
and German war. There is a considerable'
party in England'ansions for . the British Gov
ernment to take a hand in the contlitent4l
strife, by affording material aid to Denmark.'
The leader of this party is the brilliant a*
headstrong D'lsraeli, who in a recent speech
in Parliament accused the British Government
of timidity, if not of a dishonorable backward
ness in coming to tho rescue of the hard
pressed Danes. The latter have unquestion•
ably relied upon assistance from England, in,
entering an unequal contest with powds
vastly their superior as Prussia and Austria;
and beyond question a majority of the Eng- %
lish people feel inclined to come to their help.
A. strong bond of Ettlection has recently been'
established between Denmark and England,
by the marriage of England's proSpective
King, the Prince of Wales, with a Danish.
Princess.
With a strong influence for !intervention
from that quarter, backed up by gpopular en
- thusiasm, and a natural sympathy for the
weaker power in a conffict, it may prove a
very difficult matter for the British 'Govern
ment to prevent dfifting into the breakera of
war. There is no goveniment in the world,
save that of the United States, which is so
much controlled by popular impulse, as that
of Great Britian, mad, .shpuld the war boa,
which is manifestly rising, come to the full
tide, Queen, Ministers and all must give way
before its billows.
There are indications to which the Ameri
can public cannot be insensible. " 17iider
•dinary circumstances a war in Europe would
be to us a matter of indifference, save as it
affected the demand for the products, of our
soil, and appealed to our feelings of humanity.
It would be prinicpally a question of dollars
an cents with us. Now, it is vastly m ore
than that. It would be, 'perhaps, scarcely
right and proper to, wish ; pvii. to any people;
but at the present j undue, anything which will
keep the hands of Europe out of our domestic
oafs • must be looked upon as a God-send.

standing the praggartism of the Southern
press, in professing.contempt for the dilato
riness of Prance and England in recognizing
their rebel government, the dream of recog
nition has been one of the strongest stimu
lants to. the Southern leaders. Indifference
upon the subject would naturally be feigned
to keep up the spirit of the masses, but the
leaders-are sharp enough to understand per.
feAl* the advantage such recognition would
_give them. Nor have our - . covii rulers been
blind to the fadt. The Trent affair and the
whole drift of Mr. Seward's policy has been
shaped with a view to this aspect of the case.
As the cloud thickens over Europe the sky

In reference"to one of the Philadelphia del

WATSON had been chosen to the Legislature
from" one. of the city districts, there was not
the lead doubt upon our mind, knowin , r, his
integrity and honesty of iMrpose, - that he
would make a valuable member. This fact
was demonstrated the first few weeks of - the
session. But he is not only an honest and
hard-workir4" man, he is' a teridy mid aSt elo
gent debater; as is acknowledged by those
most capable to judge. His speech on. the
Raid Indemnity Bill, is characterized as one

In our remarks thus - far we have taken it
for granted that ,the establishment of one
male and one female highioihool for the whole
City, as is contemplated by the law, is an end
pre-emineattly desirable. We have long and'
anxiously wished to see it accomplish.ed; - •lnit

:Ana Why MA' it not been clone ?
First, as Wodavealietidi seen, the direetors
of the two school dis.trieta-have not cordially
coliperatedta this matter Recording to the
spirit and intent of the law: ' -
- Secondly, many excellent citizens, seeing'
that nothing was being done to furnish our
communitywith suitable free schools for,the
older - children, have felt themselves Cl:lm
pelled 'to patronize private schools, which

Thirdly, thesdintelested in existing private
schools very ilaturally exert all the influence
they can to keep down the common -schools:-
inasmuch' as the proper development of these
would soen render their own establiplimnits
unnecessary. •

• These are among the reasons that have
doubtleas prevented. our enjoying the full ben
efits of the common school law in-our commu- -
nity. A few words•in.regard to the last and
- most iinportint of.-them; if not the most int=
portant;-et lea ,the most -available for thole;
who oppose the proper carrying out of the
law.
They say such sehools would largely in
crease the tai.' Sappese..that were true ;
whnt, then? ,WhcFslgipidiAec,/, to an increase
of the taxes for such a.purpose? Surely, not ,
those who have children that wilt soon be of
a sufficient age to enjoy -the advantages of
such schools! Unless - we. - have such schools
we must have private schools of that kind
and pay heavily for.. tuition, ' and pay *our:
school tax beside.' Marty of our citizens are
paying twenty to fifty dollars school tax. and
from fifty to one hundred,dollars to mule and
female private schOids— :Slitudd such 'persons
object to having really good corhinon sehools
to which their children could go without any
additional expense, than perhaps a slight in
crease of their present school tax.?
And should any of the poor object to it?
For, even if their taxes should be soniewhat
increased, their outlay would be lila:emit - He
compared with the largely increased actran : ''
tages resulting from such an ariangenient.
The only class in the community upon
which such an increase, if necessary, would
seem to rest heavily, are the rich, who haN a
no longer any children to be , educated; "and
who already complain that they ought net-to
be taxed to educate other people's children! We
cannot stop now to argue this-point at-length;
but would be glad, Mr. Editor, if your pa
tience holds out with us, to have an oppor
tunity of showing that even the rich, yes, - es-
Peg Oily the rich, are benefitted by the eleva
tion of the mates ih intelligence, and that no
part of their -perhaps enormous revenues:is
better expended than that which the law com
