ANOTHER CHANGE NEEDED. .
The new law of evidence allowing parties
in Interest to testify in their own behalf, has
not yet had a fair trial in our State, but
wherever applied has generally given satisfac
tionf‘lt meets with considerable opposition
from some members of the bar, but on investi
gation, it will be found, we think, that it is
only In cases where, because of the light
thrown Into the jury box by the evidence of
the party, they have lost their suit. In Now
York they have taken another step in advance
and the Legislature has passed a bill, which
Gov. Hoffman signed, pro'viding that " in the
trial of all indictments, complaints and other
proceedings against persons charged with the
commission of orioles or offences, and in all
proceedings in the nature of criminal proceed
ings in any and all courts, and before any and
all officers and persons acting judicially, the
person so charged shall, at his own request,
but not otherwise, be deemed a competent
witness, but the neglect or refusal of any such
person to testify shall not create any presump
tion against him."
We hope our Legislature will not be slow to
follow this example. It will be seen that it is
only 14 his own request; that the defendant can
make' his statement and need not criminate
himself. As the law now stands, thi) defend-
ant's mouth is closed until the Judge is about
to pass ecotone°, when he is asked what he
has to say. But why aliciuld he not be heard
before the jury, after the commonwealth's
testimony has closed t The jury then can
judge whether his statement bears the mark
of truth or whether it has been manufactured
for the oceision. In many cases the evidence
is entirely circumstantial and the prisoner him
self might, Irallowed, satisfactorily explain
the whole affair. To say that this will lead to
perjury, is no argument, for the same reason
Might apply to the witnesses for the prosecution
who in such cases as assault and battery, etc.,
are as much interested as the dei ( endant. To
allow one party to testify and compel the other
to keep silence Is not reasonable and Is only
allowed because of the dislike of the lawyers
to a change in the practice. Why should not
both sides be heard, and then let the jury
cide between them ? We have seen many , a
prisoner in the box, whose character and de
meanor would lend us rather to take his word
than that of some of the witnesses produced
against him. A change,in the law in this re
spect can do no harm ; it may result in much
good.
TILE Philadelphia Post and The Evening
Telegraph aro quarelling over the Guberna
torial question, and harsh things are said on
both sides.. It is said that a ring was formed
In Philadelphia to oppose Geary, hut if so,
they met with a decided rebuke. While Gov.
Geary bas made enemies by some acts which
to his fr.' nds might appear injudicious or im
politic ' cannot be denied that his adminis
trati has been a success. It is true that
nei er State r National questions have arisen
to all into play much statesmanship, and yet,
in a Commonwealth like ours, with its many
and important interests, the position of Chief
Magistrate is one requiring qualities of the
highest order, and it is not strange that some
one or other of the factions should be displeased
But it is only the factions and cliques who are
clamoring against him. To be a Governor for
the people is not the road to political reward,
for now-a-days the people are subservient to
the politicians who make and unmake public
men to suit themselves. If Geary, therefore,
fails of a nomination it will not he that he has
.not been a good or a popular officer. We
make these remarks in justice to the Governor
who, it appears, has been unjustly assailed by
the Telegraph and other papers. That ho will
receive a heavy vote In the Convention is un
doubted, and If he should be re-nominated we
must go before the people without any quar
rels or dissensions in our own ranks. To as
sail any of the candidates now upon personal
grounds is decidedly wrong.
TO PARENTS AND' GUARDIANS.
Hr. Greeley in his opening article on Polit
ical Economy says, " Every child should be
trained to dexterity in some useful branch of
productive industry, not in order that he shall
certainly follow that pursuit, but that he may
at all events be able to do so in case he shall
fail in the more intellectual or artificial calling
which he may prefer to it." Never were
truer words spoken upon a subject which in
terests' us deeply at the present time. In no
country is labor so remunerative or so respected
as here, and yet our young men attracted by
false hopes are neglecting to fit themselves for
the struggle of life by attaining a trade upon
which they can surely rely if occasion requires
• it. To be a lawyer, doctor or clergyman is
now the ambition of every College or high
school graduate, as If a good education was
unfitted to or unbecoming a mechanic. The
professions are so crowded while apprentices
are scarce. The hunt for office and clerkships
is another fruitful source of idleness and mis
ery. Any master mechanic will tell us to-day
that instead of being run down as formerly by
applicants, it now almost becomes necessary
to pay for apprentices. The result is evident.
Unless a change takes place skilled labor will
be so scarce as to make it necessary to send
abroad for workmen. Honest labor •is re
munerative and honorable, and no man or
woman can do better by their sons than to
give them a good trade.
CONVENTIONAL INSANITY.
An Earthquaho Convention was lately held
in San Francisco. Tho object wls to devise a
method of building earthquake-proof houses.
There are men in this country who go about
holding conventions upon every, conceivable
subject. Singing Schools are now Musical
Conventions. Teachers' meetings arc Educa
tors' Conventions. To use a common phrase,
the thing is being run into thin ground. At a
Peace Congress (or Convention), the other
day, they capped the climax of human pre
sumption, in a resolution to this effect : "that
the idea of punishment of criminals should be
expunged from the divine as well as human
treatment of thakunfortunate class of beings."
We should think we have now reached the
limits. WO can't go much further. No doubt
is committee was appointed to wait upon Diety
and present Him with a handsomely engrossed
copy 4:11' this resolution and request Him here
after to govern Himself accordingly ; desiring
Him to revise certain of the by-laws of the Di
vine Government and immediately abolish
MU. After such a Peace Congress—what?
Tus. London Punch attempts totidlculo the
Sumner claim in the Alabama -matter, and
1 proposes a lunatic asylum "for sober Sumner
and drunken Chandler." In the life limo of
Mr. Lincoln it did the same. by him, but after
his melancholy death, when Mr. Punch; saw
bow universal was the grief caused by his un
timely death, it retracted filly in one of the
most beautiful eulogies ever written. It may
have cause yet to admire Charles Sumner. .
HOW IT WORKS.
If anything wore needed to show that the
administration of Gen. Grapt was to be based
upon an economical and practical manner of
doing business, the monthly statement 'of the
public debt for May ought to suffice. Secre
tary Boutwell premises. a reduction of the
public debt of about $12,000,000, which, with
that of the two proceeding months will amount
to over $21,000,000. But this is naafi. The
regular sales of gold still go on, and enough is
leftin the Treasury for Government use. The
retiring of the bonds has no effect upon the
money market except to raise the price of
Government securities. The receipts from
Internal Revenue and Customs are greater
than ever and still on the increase, while the
expenditures of the Government are less. Is
not all this cause for congratulation both in a
financial and political view ?
In no case is the change of administration
so marked as in the Internal Revenue depart
ment. A general oustineof the Bread-and
Butter men has worked wonders in the way
of increasing collections and enforcing the
laws. The whisky ring are halted and ordered
to deliver, while in almost every district where
changes have been made it is found that there
appears to be a more honest desire to servo
the Government faithfully than under the
Johnson regime, when knavery was at a pre
mium. The new administration has been but
three months in power, and yet in that time
the country has been made to feel that a mas
ter is at the helm. Tho skies look brighter
on all sides, and the promises of .the Republi
can party made to the people before the elec
tion arc being rapidly fulfilled.
CONGRESSMAN STOKES of Tennessee says
the Republicans throughout the country need
have no fear of the success of the party in
Tennessee in the coming State election. The
recent Convention was composed of 827 dele
gates, of whom 288 declared for hlm:for Gov
ernor. The Convention adjoumed,however,
without making a nomination. Stokes was
afterwards nominated by the 233 dele
gates and Senator by the remainder. All
kinds of compromises were offered, but neither
party would yield. Mr. Stokes says that he
can be elected easily, but should there appear
any doubt as to the success of the Republican
party, a satisfactory compromise will bo ef
fected.
Dlt. ACKER, of the Norristown Register, has
been &candidate for Congress for many years
past, and is likely to be for many more to
come. Continual disappointment sours him
and consequently he sees something suspicious
in the fact of our assuming entire control of
this paper. Ho already sees in his mind's eye
Senatorial and Congressional honors "de
pendent upon this charge," in other words
"he smells a mice." To alloy his suspicion
we agree that If Stiles, Boyer and the others
named, will withdraw in the doctor's favor, we
will do likewise.
LITERARY
Grace Greenwood has sold her "Little Pilgrim"
to Alfred L. Sewell A Co., Publishers of " The
Little Corporal," of Chicago. The Pilgrim has
been published as a children's magazine for over
fifteen years, and has been a popularjuventle, but
will now stop " pilgrimagiug" on Its own account,
and hereafter be an "aide" to the conquering
Western Napoleon, The Little Corporal, the well
deserved circulation of which was even before this
addition larger than that of any other juvenile
magazine In the world. Grace Greenwood still
writes for it. The July number begins a new
volume, and we advise our friends to send on to
the publishers, at once, one dollar, which is the
price for one year, and give their children this
unique, original magazine, which has no superior
anywhere. Those who subscribe during Jane,
will receive the June number extra.

WHO IS FOSTER ?
This inquiry has met us of late, at every turn
we have made—has stared at us from every' board
fence and-from every un-whitewashed barn to be
found between here and Allentown. We presume
Mr. Foster in adopting this peculiar mode of ,
ad
advertising, little expected we would furnish au
answer to his question. The great interest taken
by our people in this dashing and enterprising
young merchant of Allentown is our justification,
for giving to our readers a few facts that have
come to our knowledge bearing upon this question
of " Who is Foster 1'
The "Foster Brothers," as they are popularly
known all over the country, arc six in number.
Like most of oar successful business men, they
were country boys, and being blessed with poor
parents, were early put in training for business
men. Natives of Orange county, State ,of New
York, they each of them when about fifteen years
of age went to the city of New York and because
engaged no clerks in retail dry goods stores. They
noon started for themselves, and by strict attention
to busiuess, a liberal system of advertising and by
the honorable mode In which their business Ims
always been conducted, they have lu a very few
seers placed themselves In the very front rank of
the merchantile community. But we wish to deal
snore particularly with that one of the " Brothers"
who conducts the Allentown store.
David N. Foster was born April 24, 1841, and
has therefore recently completed his 28th year.
When not quite fifteen years of age he entered the
employ of Wm. E. Lawrence—one of New York's
oldest and most honorable Merchants. Possessed
of that enthusiasm for business eb essential to its
rapid mastery, young Foster soon outstripped
much older clerks and rose rapidly to a most en
viable position in his employer's estimation. At
the age of eighteen, he, with au older brother,
established the firm in New York city now so
widely known as "Foster Brothers," At the ex
piration of one year, having accumulated a little
money, he sold his interest In the concern to
another Brother, and left business with the in
teutiou of making the law his profession. Par
aslant to this intention he entered an academy
at Franklin, Del. Co., N. Y., Intending to give one
year to general study. Before this year had ex
pired the great rebellion broke out ;—Sumpter was
fired upon—the first call for troops was made,
and casting aside his books Mr, Foster Immediate
ly• entered the service as a private, refusing a
captaincy pressed upon him ou the ground of his
ignorance of military science. He is sold to Mice
bean the first volunteer from his native county.
Sharing in the fortunes of the Army of the Poto
mac, he wits so severely wounded at the battle of
Fredericksburg under Burnside, as to make It for
a time doubtful if he could recover. While lying
In the hospital suffering from • his wound ho wits
commissioned Lieutenant by special order of Gov.
Morgan. Recovering from his wound he was ap
pointed to the staff of General Baxter ; afterwards
CO that of Gem Roblubon and was acting as special
aid to our own lamented Reynolds when he fell at
the battle of Gettysburg. Shortly after this battle
Lieut. Foster received his commission as captain
of the company in which he entered the service as
a private. About this time Isis old wound began
to trouble him anew and under the advice of Isis
surgeon he was forced to resign. Returning to
private life he re-engaged In the retail dry goods
.business meeting with the same well canned suc.ess
that had attended his earlier efforts. Desiring at
length to establish a branch store, he hit upon
Allentown Pa., and decided to make that his per
manent residence and give to his store there his
personal attention. There his good luck seems
still to attend hlm for his store is filled continually
with customers both far and. near. Quito a 'good
number of our Slatington ladles have already
visited his store and more we hear are going. if
this brief sketch should fall under the notice of the
subject of It, we beg pardon for the liberty we have
taken. And this Is our answer to the question—
