TUE PUESIDENTIAL OUTLOOK.
The Democrats are building largely upon
their party prospects for the next presidential
election, basing their plans and calculations
upon what they term the wonderful political
reaction shown by the elections of 1870. It
seems to us that they are in error both as to
their calculations in regard to the future and
In regard to the reasoning upon which those
calculations are founded. There has been, in
fact, no reaction at all shown in the result of
the elections of 1870, and we believe Ulla the
Republicans haim more chance of carrying in
1872 Several of the States which have recently
voted In favor of the Democrats than the Dem
ocrats have of carrying any ono of the Slates
which voted for the Republicans In 1870. A
few States which have for sevefal years past
voted with the Republicans have recently been
carried by the Democrats, but there has been
no popular reaction against Republicanism,
and the Democrats know very well that they
cannot count upon those States to vote with
them again. The Democrats, for example,
have recently gained a victory in Missouri,
but It was brought about by local troubles in
the Republican ranks and by Republican votes.
The ltepublican party In that State got • the
idea that it was large enough to make two
parties, and the result 'of carrying out that
policy was to glic the Democrats a temporary
triumph. The election of Frank Blair to the
United States Senate will probably be sufficient
to convince the Republicans in Missouri that
their wiser course is to close up their ranks
and present an united front against their com
mon enemy. The result of the Missouri elec
tion was not due to a reaction against Repub
licanism, but rather to an internal revolution
In Republicanism, and the same Is true of the
few other Democratic victories which have
been gained in localities usually Republican.
The Republican party's very strength and
numbers have proved elements of weakness
in some of the recent* elections, but the defeats
which the, Republicans sustained in 1870
through their own faults and mistakes are not
likely to be repeated in 1872 Should a Pres
ident be chosen on the basis of the elections
of 1870 the Democrats would be some distance
in the minority as,will be seen by the follow.

We venture the'iwedietion that at the preiii
dentinl election in 1872 the 1:y1)011c:ins will
carry more Stales than they did in 18:0, for
they certainly stand more chance of winning
from the Democratic column of States than of
losing from their own column. This State
cannot be counted on now as absoltitily sure
for the Republicans in 1872, but neither can
New York for the Democrats; and we reckon
both. Indiana, Califor
nia, Nevada and Illissouri are more likely to
go Republican than Democratic two years
from now, and several other States in the
Democratic column are certainly among the
" doubtful" ones. the elections of 1870 have
not been, upon the whole, unfavorable to the
cause of Republicanism, and the Democrats
are rather premature in their rejoicings over
the victory which they expect to gain I t 187'1
The next two years will whitens sissy changes
In different parts of the country, but we have
confidence enough in the Justice and merit. of
the principles of the Republican party to be
Ileve that the social and material changes
which will result before the next presidential
election will only place that party In a stronger
position with the American people than ever
before.
THE GRAND ARMY
The semi-annual Convention of the Grand
Army of Pennsylvania was held in this city
yesterday, and it was largely attended by del
egates from all parts of the State. These
Conventions are occasions of great enjoyment
to the members of the order, and we hoar the
opinion freely expressed among the visiting
delegates that their meeting in Allentown was
one of the pleasantest ever held in the State.
The residentsveteran soldiers did all in their
power to make the Convention a success, and
we feel assured that the delegates present front
the different sections of the State will carry
away with them pleasant impressions of the
hospitality anti kindness of their Allentown
comrades. The Grand Army of the Republic
is essentially a benevolent and social organi
zation, and It aims simple to perpetuate the
friendships and associations which were
formed during the war, and to render pecu
niary relief to disabled comrades and to the
widows and orphans of those who have fallen
In the service of their country. There is cer
tainly nothing to criticise or to fear in such ob
jects an these, and the petty slurs which are
sometimes thrown out against this organiza.
Von as having been formed and carried on for
political and personal purposes have their
origin either in malice or ignorance. The
Grand Army has no other political creed than
loyalty to country and fidelity to duty, and
there is no distinction of creed or party policy
recognized among its members. We are glad
to know that the order in this State is in n
nourishing condition, and the names of the
department ofilcers elected yesterday furnish
a sufficient guarantee that its Immediate future
will be as successful and prosperous as its past.
There is nothing dangerous to the republic in
talking over army experiences and relieving
the wants of disabled comrades and soldiers'
widows and orphans, and although our mili
tary friends da not choose to open wide the
doors at their periodical gatherings we think
they may safely be trusted to talk osier their
camp, field and hospital experiences and do
their deeds of kindly charily In their own way
and at their own pleasure. There is no trea
son or danger to the republic in organizations
formed for the purposes of friendship and
charity for which the Grand Army of the Re
public has been established, and the Grand
Army of Pennsylvania deserves the best wishes
and kindly sympathy of every citizen of the
state.
Tun House of Representatives at Harrisburg
spent some time on Thursday in debating Mr.
Mann's bill ftr holding a Constitutional Con
vention. The only point which was reached
In the discussion was in regard to the section
providing for a'special election in June, and
without settling the question of time the fur
ther consideration of the bill was postponed
with next Thursday. Several members op
posed the idea of holding an election on pur
pose for the choice of delegates to the Consti
tutional Convention, basing their opposition
on the silegedllicts that such an election would
coat the State fully one hundred thousand dol. I
and that the vote brought outat such an ;
election would be very much less than what ;
pould be obtained at the regular fall election. I
TILE INCONIE TAX.
The United States Senate voted on Time.'
day by a majority of one to abolish the pres
ent income tax. The vote was preceded by a
pretty full discussion of the question on Wed
nesday and Thursday, which was participated
in by a number of Senators.. The points
made in opposition to the continuance of the
tax were that it was undoustitutlonal, burden
some, and not large enough to pay the cost
and trouble of collection; while It was urged
by those who opposed the repeal that the
amount at present covered by' this tax would
have to he raised in some other way, and that
it would be in'effect a vote of " want of confi
dence" In Secretary Boutwell to repeal the
tax in opposition to his wishes. The move
ment in favor of repeal was largely led by
Senator Scott of this State, who introduced
the bill which was finally passed; and the
leading speeches in favor of the continuance
were made by Senator Sherman of Ohio and
Senator Morrill of Vermont. 31r. Scott
claimed that the repeal of this tax would enable
the dismissal of five hundred assistant assessors
at once, but Mr. Sherman maintained that the
abolition of the income tax would not cause
any diminution in the expense of carrying on
the Internal Revenue Department. The deci
sive vote in favor of the repeal was given by
Senator Cameron, and the question is now to
be acted upon by the Ilouse. The fate of Cie
bill in the House is somewhat doubtful, as the
Ways and Means Committee to whom it will
be referred is divided in opinion upon the
expediency of passing the measure. There is
also a strong difference of opinion among
those gentlemen who have the best opportu
nities for forming intelligent opinions in regard
to the nil vantage or diandvantagc of the tax.
Gen. Pleasanton, the Commissioner of Inter
nal Revenue, takes strong ground to favor of
repealing the tax ; while Mr. Boutwell, Secre
tary of the Treasury, is equally strong in
advocating . its Mention. We have previously
referred to Gen. Pleasanton's arguments in
support of his position, but the figures which
he has recently submitted to the Ways and
Means Committee do not sustain the statements
made by him a short time ago. He then
claimed that the tax did not pay for collecting,
but his figures now show a probable income
to the Government of about fourteen millions
of dollars if the tax is retained as it at present
stands. Secretary Bout well estimates the cost
of collection at about half a million dollars,
and we think there is force in his argument
that we cannot at present afford to do without
the amount which would be realized from this
tax. Rs we have previously remarked, the
income tax does not affect the lIIRSS“3 of the
people at all, nod if the amount which has
been raised from this tax must be, provided for
in some other way we do not see the wisdom
or the policy in abolishing it. The Govern
ment must get hold of a certain amount of
money with which to pay its regular bills, and
,we do not see that the income tax is any more
offensive in its character than ninny other
taxes. No one without money is called upon
to pay an income tax, and to those wile have
money the inceme tax as it now sands cannot
be so very burdensome.
Tut: investigation which has been going on
recently at New York in reference to the case
of Dr. Lanahan, Assistant Agent of the Meth
odist 'Book Concern, has been closed for the
present, and Dr. Lanahan has been reinstated
in his firmer position. Something over a
year ago Dr. Lanai= made public some
charges against the management of the . Met
hodist Hook Concern, alleging that there had
been heavy losses incurred through gross mis
management of its business affairs. Dr. Lan-
Mni has all along stoutly maintained his
ability to prove the truth or the charges which
he then made, and the result of the various
MIK" 011% 'lll)Cror`:"ia," 4
the case. Some tnonti:s ago the Doctor was
removed from his position and serious charges
or ho llizieney, neglect, &c., were preferred
against hint, lint, as we have said, lie has now
been reinstated in his former position, and the
charges which he has made against the gene
ral manitgement of the Concern have been re
ferred to a special Cpanittee, which is to
probe the mutter to the bottom and report
upon it in February 14' next year. The whole
oilier has been an unfortunate one, as it has
caused dissensions and differences among
those who should stand together, and the re
sult thus far has proved that it is always easier
to givecurrency to 11111;leasant suspicions than'
to allay them or prove them to be without
foundation when otter they are started.
Wit mentioned a few days ago that General
Thomas L. Rene, President of the Board of
State Charities, had presented a report to the
Legislature. criticising and condemning the
action of the other members of the Board, and
urging the Legislature to abolish the Board
entirely. The General claimed that the mein.
ben; had not attended to their proper duties,
and that the money paid them in salaries had
been practically wasted. A reply to the
charges contained in this report has been sub
mitted to the Legislature this week by the
other inembeitS of the Board, George L. Har
rison, G. Dawson Coleman, Charles A. Wood
and Wilmer Worthington. These gentlemen
claim that they have endeavored to faithfully
discharge their duties during the few months
since the Board was organized for work, and
they seem to think that Gen. Dane's especial
grievance is the fact that the other members
of the Board refused to submit themselves
completely and entirely to his will and direc
tion. The (laurel is largely personal, and
the general public has no especial interest' in
it only so far as the legitimate work of the
Board of State Charitks is affected by these
differences between the members.
Tut: Committee on Foreign Affairs in the
House of Representatives has decided to report
a bill giving a gold medal and $5,00 to George
F. Robinson, for his bravery in saving the life
of . .7jecretary Seward when he was attacked by
Payne an the night of President Lincoln's
assasAnntion. Robinson was a convalescent
soldier detailed from the hospital to take care
of Mr. Seward, and although unarmed at the
time Payne !mule his attack he did not beg
tate to engage the assassin and was undoubt•
edly the means of saving Mr. Seward's life,
although lie was badly wounded himself. At
present Robinson has a clerkship in one of the
Departments of Washington, and it is pro
posed to make recognition of Lis bravery by
the gifts to which we have referred.
11 - 000 s of Oregon has been
nominated for Governor of Utah by President
Grant. Mr. Woods has been prominent' in
Oregon polities, and in 18110 was elected Gov
ernor of that State. The position of Governor
of Utah is an important one, and it Is a diffi
cult place to fill satisfactorily and successfully.
The Mormons arc many of them full of rebel
lions inclinations in regard to the United States
Government, and the safety of the non-Mor
mon population can only. be secured by the
firm and judicious administration of the laws
by the Executive officer who represents .ffie
authority of the United States. We hope that
Gov - . Woods'will prove the right man in the
right place.
Tun new Senator eleCted from Nebraska,
Phineas \V. Ilitchcock,is a strong Republic-tin,
although he, was cleted in opposition to Sena
tor Thayer,who was the Republican candidate
for-re-election. Mr. liitcheock was born in
New York and graduated at Williams College
In Massachusetts, but he Went to Nebraska
soon after finishing his legal studies, and has
remained there since. President Lincoln ap
pointed him. United States Marshal for Ne.

ho was elected Congressional Delegate in 1804.

SPECIAL LEGISLATION
Any one who carefully • and candidly fol
lows the reports of tho daily proceedings of
our Legislature at Harrisburg will very soon
be convinced of the necessity of Constitu
tional reforiii in the matter of legislative work.
A great majority of the matters that are acted
upon there are matters of no public concern
nt all, and it is altogether ridiculous that the
State should be requited to pay men for legis
lating upon purely local questions which could
much better be attended to by the County
Courts. As the case stands now the members
of the Legislature are profoundly ignorant of
the character and scope of a majority of the
bills which they puss, and they know nothing
at all about the necessity or fitness of many of
the measures for which they vole. For ex
ample, Mr. Smith of one county introduces a
bill to enable the people of some township in
his district to open a road between certain
points. Mr. Smith's' introduction of the
measure brings it before the Legislature, and
by it Is promptly passed. Probably no other
member than the one who introduced the bill
knows anything of the merits of the case, for
ill so large a State as ours, or even is a smaller
one for that matter, it is simply impossible
that the local wants and needs of one section
should be intimately known and thoroughly
understood by the legislators from n remote
section. Such matters as that which we have
cited ns an example are taken entirely upon
the authority of the member who presents
them, and they are voted for and passed as a
part of the routine business of the session, the
members neither knowing nor caring any
thing about the merits or the bills. When
men begin to pass bills about which they know
nothing they have commenced a
„dangerous
work, and this simple fact, that so many really
necessary bills must be voted ler and passed
on trust, is the source front which arises so
much legislative corruption. There is nothing
very bad in n bill enabling certain school di
rectors to borrow money to build a school
house, but when it conies to passing scores of
bills by their titles merely, without having
them read at all, it is not strange that there is
much objectionable legislation. The Legisla
ture ought to bit relieved from jurisdiction in
all these petty local matters, and this is one of
the things which will demned careful atten
tion from the Constitutional Convention.
There is no raison why the Legislature should
be cumbered with business which can be done
better in every way by other ineera, and we
are persuaded that all local questions can be
more wisely and sttisfaebirily acted on by
.ther tribunals that the State Legislature. It
is essential for the wise decision of any ques
tion that there should he SIAM, knowledge of
the matter to be decided upon on the part of
those who are called to decide it, and it cer
tainly Is not wise to send men to Harrisburg
to decide upon !natters about which .It is en
tirely impossible for them to have any Intelli
gent knowlege. It will surely be a step in
the right di21.1 - tion to take away from the'Leg
islature this rp-eial legislation business,
and when that has been done there will have
been a very decided movement made toward
preventing the objeCtionable legislation which
is every year becoming more and more of a
feature of the work done at Harrisburg. The
legitimate business of State Legislatures is to
net upon matters which pertain to and affect
the welfare of the people of the Stale at large,
and kgislators should devote their time and
attention to that class of business and should
be held strictly responsible ..to their conF;litti
cuts for doing their work faithfully and well.

CONGRESSIONA L
TCESDAY JANUAItY 21
THE Miners' Journal of Saturday has the
following in regard to the present condition of
the coal trade and the prospects of resumption:
" The quantity of Coal sent to market by Rail
road during the last week was 0,800 tons,
against 29,378 tons for the corresponding week
last year. The quantity of Anthracite sent to
market for the week was 29,698, and of all
kinds 38,160 tons, rigaidst 183,260 tons for the
corresponding week last year. The Executive
Committee of the W. B. A. had a meeting on
Thursday, and adjourned Friday. We have
not heard what transpired, nor had any of the
operators up to this writing. There is no de
mand for coal on the line or at Philadelphia,
except at one or two points for small quanti•
tics. In Rhode Island they are a little short.
New York has a supply of coal in first hands
that will last from 15 to 20 days. The supply
in the yards of many retail dealers will lust
much longer. The Delaware and Hudson
Canal Company are sending East from their
stock at Honesdale, which laid over on ac
count of the low water in the Canal. At the
close of navigation this stock was about 80,000
tons. We presume it has been reduced to
50,000 tons now. They are also sending
North on the Carbondale and' Albany Road,
which is now under their control and comple
ted, several thousand tons of coal a week. If
the Delaware should keep open at Port Rich.
mond, and vessels could be obtained, the sur
plus coal at Port Richmond could be shipped
to New York and the East, and also South,
to supply the markets that are short. -• This is
tile state of the coal market, and both the
consumers and dealers can see that there is no
necessity to run the 'price of coal up to higher
figures than it is selling at at present. We give
it as our opinion that the suspension will end
here as soon as there is a demand for Schuyl
kill Coal".
TILERS are some rather singular circum
stances connected with the recent elections of
Gene. John A. Logan and Frank P. Blair to
the United Stales Senate, the former from DU
noitand the latter from Missouri. Both these
gentlemen fought gallantly during the war of
the rebellion, and each of them commanded a
corps of Gen. Grant's army at Vicksburg.
Logan went into the war a Democrat. but
came out a Republican, and has been elected
first as Congressman and then as Senator by
the Illinois Republicans. Blair was the leader
of the Free State men in Missouri for some
time lecture the war broke out, and lee was an
ardent Republican when he entered the army.
lle came out of the war a Democrat, and since
that time has been the unsuccessful Democratic
candidate for the Vice Presidency and has
mew been elected to the Senate by the Mis
souri Democrats. The political opinions of
men often undergo very decided and radical
changes, and this is certainly a prominent case
in point.
Gov. flornrAN of New York has suddenly
awakened to the fact that money is sometimes
used iu procuring nominations and control'.
ing elections In the State over which he Pre
sides. The Governor has been connected with
the Tammany Deinociacy long enough to
know whereof he affirms, but we have not
much faith in his party associates taking very
active measures to prevent the use of money
at elections. The Governor suggests that the
State Constitution be amended so as to pro
vide for the punishment of those who buy
votes at the primary elections and at the polls,
and he really professes to feel very badly to
think that politicians should be so wicked and
corrupt.
ALEXANDER CALDWELL, tormerly of Colum
bia, Lancaster county, this State, has been'
elected United States Senator from Kansas to
succeed Mr. ROSS. Mr. Ciddwell wma rormer
of Columbia, luau oto
ing his residence in Kansas he has been ac•
tively connected with all movements and en
terprises looking to the development of the
State. Prior,to the war Mr. Caldwell was a
Democrat, but for the last ten years he Las
been nn active and earnest Republican.
JUDOE KELLEY of Philadelphia has a speech
favoring the annexation of St. Domingo, and
a Washington dispatch states that the House
will hold an evening session on Friday to
give him an opportunity to present his views.
Ile claims that annexation will benefit both
the people or this country and those of St.
Domingo in a commercial way, and that it
will be a decisive step toward the complete
abolition of slavery in the West Indies and in
South America.
CONOREFISMAN BUTLER of TCLUICSBCC has
lately been on trial at Washington for forgery.
The charge was that he procured the payment
of a pension certificate by placing the name of
soldier's widow upon the back of it, but Mr.
Butler convinced the Court that be was acting
as the widow's attorney and he was decided to
be not guilty.
V15NII; BEAM'S STATUB OF ABRAILIAI
Llti
coLN.—Vinnic Ream's Statue of the late
President Lincoln was unveiled last week in
the rotunda of the Capitol at Washington.
The rotunda was brilliantly illuminated and
decorated with flags, one made of California
silk being suspended over the statue. Presi-
Ant Grant, Vice President Colfax, General
Sherman, Judge Davis, the Committees on
Public Buildings and Grounds,and the orators .
of the occasion occupied seats on the platform.
There was a large audience, including Judges
of the Supreme Court and Members of Con
gress with their families. After music by the
Marine Band, Judge Davis, of the Supreme
Court, proceeded to unveil the statue, which
was covered with a national flag. As sodn
as this was done the assembly broke forth in"
applause. Addresses were delivered by Sen
ators Trumbull, Patterson, Carpenter, and
Representatives Cullom, Banks and Brooks,
of New York, eulogistic of Mr. Lincoln, and
congratulating the success of Miss Ream.
Many Europeans of distinction petted Miss
Beam while she was with them. She is a
Mason, and is the only woman in America
who has taken eight degrees. Before going
to Europe she was given a certificate of her
advancement and a very handsome Masonic
badge. Cardinal Antonelli, noticing the
medal hanging from a ribbon thrown around
Miss Beam's neck, asked what it was. She
told him, and said she believed he disapproved
the order. "In your country," he replied,
"the society does good deeds, in ours not."
Ile afterwards gave her three cameos, two
having heads of the Virgin Mary, the other
that of Christ. Gustave Dore presented her
with nn original sketch of Judith holding up
the head of Holofernes, ar.d Pere Hyacinthe
wrote a very beautifol exhortation is her
Protestant Bible, commending the contents
of the book to her careful study.
RoLLING RAILWAY Axixii.A cam:mini
cation «ae recently made to the British nS
sociation upon a method for shaping railway
axles by rolling pressure, instead or by. ham
mering, the result being accomplished In two
minutes, instead of half an hour, 'as required
by the usual method, the axle, at the same
time, being not only superior in quality; but
more uniform in size, and of course capable
of being produced more cheaply. The machine
consists of three rollers, regulated so as grad
ually to press more closelY together, thus re
ducing the diameter of the bar, and extending
its length until shaped to the size required.
Axles of any length can be rolled In this
manner with collars at any part. The rel.
lars are geared to revolve all in the same di
rection, their friction Imparting motion to the
axle. It was thought by the author of the
communication that the rolling process would
tend to obviate those flaws in axles which so

sensible and practical work, written by Dr.
Dlo Lewitt and published by Fields, Osgood
& Co., Boston. Dr. Lewis believes that
health is wealth, and ho believes also that
health is within the.reach of almost every per
son who will take proper care of the body.
lie places great stress upon both the character
and quantity of food eaten, and a large part
of the " Talks" is devoted to telling what
should be used fur food and:how it should
be prepared. We have already given
given some extracts from the work, showing
how a person may live healthfully and well
at a very small cost, and we most heartily and
earnestly commend the book to the attention
of all our readers. Those of them who have
strong stomachs will learn from this worts of
Dr. Lewis how to keep them so, and those
who have overtaxed that very important argan

pains. Dr. Lewis has two meals a day, taking
the second one about noon, and he recom

exercise freely ht the open air, let the sun
shine freely upon your person and into your
sleeping room—these are some of Dr. Lewis'
directions to those who wish to enjoy good
health and avoid the pangs of indigestion and
the payment of physicians' bills. A dollar
and a half will purchase this hook, and it will
be a good investment for any one. For sale

POEMS BY BOOT HABTE is a nicely gotton
up book of one hundred rind fifty pages, pub
fished by. Fields, Osgood & Co., Boston. It
contains between thirty and forty poems,
many of which have already become familiar
to magazine and newspaper renders. " Plain
Language from Truthful James" has been
widely published and universally admired,
and the gond thing about this and about Mr.
Ilarte's writings Loth in poetry and prose is
that the more they are read the better they
are liked. In connection with this notice of
Mr. Ilarte's last volume, the following brief
description of the author as he appeared to a
recent visitor will be of interest : "I spent a
portion of two days with hint a short time
since in San Francisco. Its is a little below
the medium stature, well proportioned, has n
forehead more high than broad, thin brown
hair, a fair complexion originally, but his face
Is now badly pitted with small-pox ; eyes re
markably soft and brilliant, and an indescri
bable expression of countenance that indicates
a spirit in complete sympathy with all that is
beautiful and all that is good. His voice is
peculiarly sweet and musical, his powers of
endurance not over large ; he is firm in his
opinions, but in the expression of them mod
est ; shuns rather than seeks society ; never
courts but avoids notoriety; is a delight fat
companion ; does far more work than he
ought; understands what he can do, and never
attempts what he cannot ; and, in general ap
pearance, more nearly resembles that poet,
and scholar . and gentlamau, Donald G. Mitch
ell, than any person with whom I (tax acquaint
ed on this side of the continent.''
VAGABOND ADVENTURES, written by Ralph
Keeler and published by Fields,Osgood & Co.,
Boston, is a pleasantly written history of sev•
eral years of wanderings. It is divided into
three parts" Among Wharves and Cabins,"
" Three years as a Negro M lustre]," and
" The . Tour of Europe for $lBl In Currency."
Mr Keeler has certainly seen a great deal of
life for a man of his youthful years, and he
has a pleasant and gossippy way of stating his
adventures which gives the book all the in
terest of a comance, and all the value of 11
matemont ni MM. His experiences show
that the will makes the way, in very many
ceses at least, and the victories which he has
won at different periods over very adverse
and unfavorable circumstances will carry with
them valuable practical lessons of persever
ance and energy to those who shall read. his
book. For sale at Moss'.
EVERY SATURDAY, which has recently been
very much enlarged and improved, prmniscs
to grow in interest and value as time passes
on. The publishers announce in the last
number that they have in preparation and
will shortly produce a series of papers illus
trating points of scenic and industrial interest
in the United States on a grander scale than
has 'ever been undertaken by any pictorial
newspaper. The first of the series will be en
titled.. The Taking of Pittsburg, by Mr.
Ralph Keeler, with original designs by Mr.
Harry Fenn. The narrative, extending
through several successive numbers of Every
Saturday, will give a vivid description by pen
and pencil of the route to Pittsburg, of that
picturesque city itself, and of the coal anti oil
regions. Both these gentlemen have been on
an extended tour of the country which they
are to depict, and the reputation of each in his
peculiar line is an earnest of the admirable
manner in which the work will be done."
There is nowhere in America a bettor field for
obtaining valuable Illustrated papers than in
Pennsylvania, and we suggest to the publish
ers of Every Saturday that they take a look
at our Lehigh Valley and give the public an
illustrated idea of what is to be seen here.
The ifret book sent us by the new publish
ing firm of J. H. Osgood & Co., of Boston,
successors to Fields, Osgood & Co., is "Woven
of Many Threads." It is a paper covered vol
ume of one hundred and twenty-eight double
columned pages, and those Of our renders who
have a taste for a good novel will find this to
their liking. It Is one pleasant peculiarity of
this publishing house that it gives to the pub
lic no poor literature, and in these days of
al
most countless books Ibis is no small recom
mendation. Osgood & Co. have In prepara
tion an excellent list of works,as will be seen
by the following extract from their announce
ments for the present year :—A new volume
of Essays, by Emerson. "Parnassus," a se
lectionof poems, edited by Emerson. "John
Woohnim's Journal," edited by Whittier.
"Poems of Childhood," collected by Whittier.

most readers, and they will find in it a delight

Days." J. W. DeForest has the second in
stallment of "Nate Beaumont"; Dr. Samuel
A. Green writes "The Story of a Famous
Book"; Dr. Henry W. Williams glees good
advice as to the care of the eyes, and there are
other interesting articles In prose and verse.
Scribner's Monthly foi February shows
continued progress and improvement In the
elements which make up a popular 'and vain
la magazine. The opening paper is a very
readable and valuable illustrated article upon
"The New York Mercantile Library," and
the other illustrated articles are "The French

left here late last night, exploded her boilers
14 miles above this city at 11. this morning,
tearing away the forward putt of the cabin
Emil texas. The boat then took file and burn
ed until the br.w sunk. The night was very
dark, and after the explosion most of the pas
sengers rushed down to the lower deck, many
in the confusion jumping into the river.
When the bow sank, the waves swept front
the lower deck all who had gathered there.
Five of the passengers took the lif..-boat itn-
tnediately after the explosion. went ashore,
and then turned the hunt adrift. They were
afterwards picked up by the steamer Excel

who woo on duty at the time, says everything
was working well np to the time of the ex-
plosion, and that the boiler Wes carrying less
than 120 pounds of steam, and was allowed
120. Ile had just tried the water, and found
it all right. One of the boilers was blown
