ALLENTOWN, PA., NOV. 28, 1872.
Thom who are best qualified to speak upon
the subject have given the country to under
stand that the President does not Intend to go
outside of tho Republican party to get officers
under the Government, for the purpose of en
forcing Civil Service Reform. He knows, as
well as anybody else, that the Reform would
not be a success did ho do so. It cannot be
denied that if the claims of . hard workers in
the party were completely ignored, the party
would suffer thereby. There Is an idea pre
valent among , that class of patriots who have
to be hauled to the polls, that all those men
who work and spend money for a party must
necessarily be corrupt and dishonest, but the
President knows the falsity of such an idea,
and while he will make capability and hon
esty strong recommendations for a candidate
to possess, he will also be careful not to treat
with contempt the petition of a party-worker
who also possesses those qualifications.
Tun horse disease has passed through Its
worst stages, and we are happy to know that
the mortality in this county has been very
small. There is danger that some of our
horsemen have been over-cautious and may
have madb their animals delicate by too much
nursing. The disease, as an epidemic, being
now, and Its ravages alarming, there was open
a vast field for false reports and exaggerations,
and it is unnecessary to say that the field was
pretty well filled. Owners of horses cense
quently caught the alarm, and the few horses
which appeared upon our streets during the
past two weeks showed that they were even
afraid to give them a little exercise, though
the experience of owners of large numbers of
horses in 'other cities has shown that light ex
ercise for horses not seriously sick was more
beneficial than otherwise. The disease, how
ever, now seems to be pretty well over, and
while the horses will all require at least ho.
mane treatment, there is no prospect that many
of them will be unfit for work the present
week.
ONE of the most liMioftant resolutions - in•
troduced in the Constitutional Convention is
one making education compulsory, that j, re
quiring the attendance at school of childrei,
netween.the ages of eight and twelve years,
unless they are prevented from attending
through mental or physical inability. This
idea will be fiercely opposed, n^ doubt, as
anti-Republican, hut, it it is true the success
of our free government depends upon the In
telligeace of the masses, the government of
the State surely has a right to enforce one of
the principles of self-preservation. Almost
any active School Director is aware of the ne
cessity for compulsory education. Those
classes who need a little schooling most are
always the ones who are kept away from
school, and either set to work, or else left to
run the streets and to form such associations
as will lay the foundation for lives of infamy
and disgrace. A little education will hurt no
one, and if it succeeds in elevating but a few
the blessings of compulsory education can
scarcely be estimated. It is not a new idea,
by any means, and wherever tried has worked
for the good of society.
Wahope the question of interest will re
ceive the consideration it deserves from the
Constitutional Convention. Allentown has
felt for many years that this particular locality
would be greatly benefited by a legalization
of seven per cent. Interest. We know of an
instance where a foreign capitalist wished to
loan a large amouct of money on property in
talW; Milled file moneyilie
contiguity to New York must operate against
us. New Jersey has felt that the seven per
cent. of New York operated against her, and
therefore allows seven per cent. to be charged
in certain sections affected by New York.
while she allows only six per cent. In that
art of the State whose money matters are
'ontrolled by Philadelphia. This may nc
`''ount, In a grea‘measure, for the far greater
Advancement and prosperity of the northern'
sections of the State—the greater number of
manufactories and the denser population. If
the Lehigh Valley had equal advantages, we
aro confident our progress would become
more rapid. It would, however, be necessary,
In order to give the people the ful I benefit of
an increase of interest. to make the usury
laws more stringent and to make their enforce
mutt easier.
IN Georgia, the most Intensely Liberal State
of the Union. the negroes do not fare very
well. At least the treatment. they receive is
worse than they care to tolerate and they are
consequently co-operating to form an emtgra
Lion society to protect those of their race who
wish to go West. At the convention of south
ern negroes, to be held in January, steps will
be taken looking to the formation of negro
settlements in some of the territoties. The
Movement has the appearance 01 thrift and a
proper regard for Belf•preservatlon and per
sonal advancement upon the part of the ne
groes, and it their project is successful they
will do a great deal towards developing the
rich agricultural wealth of the territories. As
far as the negroes are concerned the movement
has the air of wisdom, but are the white Lib
erala of Georgia exercising a commendable
degree of shrewdness in driving their laboring
population out of the State ? One of the first
questions they should ask themseivee is "does
•it pay 4" It may give a few white men fat
places and Stile to do, but these will not com
pensate the people for the loss of labor. Un
der the old slave regime Georgia was back
ward enough in internal improvements.
Though she has advanced,somewhat since the
war closed, she is yet an infant in the progress
of the ago and she has vast tracts of undevel
oped soil, the proper culture of which would
help to lift from her shoulders the burdens
which were put there as a penalty for the sin
of rebellion. If she wishes to advance in ma
terial prosperity, the path is plainly marked
out before her. The northern States should
be her guide, but driving away labor is taking
the backward track.
THE quality of justice In California seems
to be rather strained than otherwise, if we are
a. to trust to the accounts Just given in the San
Francisco papers touching a recently released
convict from the State Prison at San Quentin.
This cardoned wretch is a boy, not quite four
teen years of age, and the fearful crime for
which he was convicted is told by the San
Francisco papers as follows: Several highway
robberies had taken piece in Sonoma and the
robbers captured. After the danger had
passed, boasting was the current occupation
of the stage-drivers, and their evening hours
were full of past and prospective valor. This
boy, thirteen years old, having heard ono
driver in particular expatiate on his own bra-
very, thought to experiment with him,..and
slier dark one night stepped into the roadlas
the stage approached, held up a fence picket
liken gun, andcried ”halt i" Thebrave driver
stopped. Being told to throw out the box,
he did It and then went on. The boy did not
touch it, but followed on end, meeting with
porno friends, told them the affair as a capital
joke. Be was arrested, tried and convicted
' of highway robbery and sentenced to the State
Prison for a year. There seems to be plenty
of individual men with brains in California,
• but when it comes to twelve men in a jury,
they are simply so 'many idiots. Certainly
this case and that of Mrs. Fair are enough to
tudify oven a stronger atatelneXtt titan that.
The Massachusetts Senatorship.
From the Do.ton Advertiser, Nov. .ID.
it is no secret that Mr. Boutwell is acandi:

Wilson, or.that he has been advised to tender
his resignation be fdre the meeting of the Legit'.
lature in January. Whether that would Im
prove his chances of election.i case it should
be contested we cannot soy ; it is the opinion
of some of his Wends' 'that it would. But
MassaehUsetts Is richer in candidates fir the
national Senate than in financial ministers,
and if Mr. Boutwell returns to Massachusetts
for this purpose ho may not And the field en •
tirely, clear. Without in any degree disparag;
mg the eminent abilities of Mr. .Boutwell, it is
unquefitionably true that the State has many
citizens of proved capacity and character to
whom she would not fear to trust her good
fame in the Senate of the United States. Un
der ordinary circumstances either Judge hoar,
in the eastern pan of the State, or Mr. Dawes,
in the western, would be supported with cor

Boutwell unquestionably has, Ir. Dawes,

Make the contest a close one. They would
find friends in this part of the State also ; and
if not enough to elect him, enough certainly
to make the contest interesting.

A JOURNALISTIC 1111SFORTENE.
Nothing is clever to the heart of a genuine
journalist than a real "sensation," but nukes
the sensation a a real one it Is sivorthless.
Among the half-cut journalists the truth or
falsity of their startling announcements is a
mere secondary consideration. 01 coons, we
are speaking now of the riff-raff of journalism
—the little papers which hang on the sltirtso
their reputable contemporaries, and by Judi
cious picking and stealing manage to eke out
a precarious livelihood. With these, strait.
cued circumstances compel occasional lies of
a turtling nature, for without such strayings
from truth to force their sale they would
speedily becompelled to give up the ghost from
sheer inanition. Our moral reflections on this
topic are suggested by a misfortune which oc
curred yesterday to a number of highly respect
able journals throughout the United States
connected with the '.American Press Assn- 5
elation." By some s'.range mistake the Part
agent of this association sent a cable despatch
to the effect that M. Thiers hat resigned the
Presidency of France, and that iThyslial Mc-
Mahon had been appointed Presidebt in hie
stead. Nor was the despatch a mere bare an
nouncement of this fact. Details of an Blab•
orate nature were freely given. It was stated
that Paris was " intensely excited," that
" strong efforts would be made to persuade
Thiers to withdraw his resignation," and it
was added somewhatsadly that " his di terms
nation to withdraw from active life was said
to be immovable." Then came a " later" des
patch, in which It was said that the " proin'pt
resignation of President Thiers" bad " caused
a revulsion of feeling)n his favor," that a
" meeting had been held and negotiations re
opened s looking to a compromise between the
Assembly and T,likre," and finally it was
stated that " in view of I,llis action on the part
of the opposition and the great weight which
has been brought to bear upon him, it was
possible that his Excellency would again re
sume the Presidency of the Republic." In
short, there was in thia,despatch to ourt-rtkfor
tonal° contemporaries who belong to
"American Press Association" every element
of that sensationalism which is found in the
ordinary home-made despatches priniedhy the
lying and stealing class of journals to IN hICII
we have above alluded. To our friends in
this their hour of bitter trial we extend our
most heartfelt sympathy, and if we may be al
lowed to put a moral reflection among our ex
pressions of commiseration, we would say that

DIAMOND HUNTING.
In the Mountains of Wyoming.
A letter from Evanston, Wyoming, of date
November 11, contains some interesting facto
and speculations concerning diamonds In the
yet undeveloped regions of the Great West.
The writer states that fie has in his day been
the owner of many So-called silver mines in
Nevadn, and a gold mine in Wyoming, but
has never yet received a dollar of profit from
any of them ; yet, when ho saw a string of
mules laden with bacon and flour, sugar nod
coffee, marshaled by a dozen bearded men,
well mounted and armed, ready to start for
the diamond fields, he could not resist the
temptation, and went with them, and is now
enjoying all the excitement of diamond, hunt
ing: He / says
They do say that below the grand old range
of the Uintah mountains there are diamond
fields of
IMMENSE EXTENT AND GREAT RICHNESS
We shall see, and for myself I can say that
I hslieve in them. Why should riot there ho
diamonds in North America, as well as in
Asia, Africa, and South America? I see no
reason, and firmly believe that they will be
found, It they have not already been, in great
numbers on this continent. It is said that the
first diamonds were found in South Africa by
the Children, who used them to play with, un
til, ime day, a man came along who under
stood something about such matters, who
found that the little innocents were using fikir
sized stones, of considerable value, in their
games. He wished to purchase the stones,
bu. the parents of the children said they were
of no value, and gave them to ,him at once.
He gave :he children sumo little presents, and
went on his way a happier and richer man.
Shortly afterward, the great furore about the
South African mines broke At, and many
diamonds of great value have been found
therein.
BODIES IN MONTANA-DIAMONDS IN IDAHO
Some very handsome rubiesbaye been found
in Montana, and some diamonds of grnall size
in Idaho. It is also well known that the sol
diers of Corn z found some beautiful emeralds
in the Mexican States of Chihuahua and
Sinaloa. I see no sun great obstacles In the
way of finding fine gems In the heart of the
Rocky Mountains, and believe, if they are not
thund now, they will he found hereafter by
those who are earnest in their search.
Tee snow lies on the Bintah range, and has

a great bend to the eastward, then runs south
' west, and so continues until It empties into
the (fund river, or Rio Colorado, and thence
on to the Gulf ol California. This great stream
runs through an Immense extent of country
which has never been explored. We are too
apt to believe flint we have made all the dis
coveries that can he made, but in this we are
greatly mistaken ; we know little or nothing
about the resources of the southwestern por
tion of the national domain, end n

have peculiar manners and customs, worthy
of careful investigation and patient study, liv
lug or roaming about, In this land ; and there
is more mineral wealth in it than has ever
been dreamed of.
TEIE fiREAT BOLE OF THE MINERAL WEALTII

Wasatch range of mountains, and in the la
teral ranges leading thereto, Including the
Uintahs. But this will require time. The
Great Creator never designed that one set of
men should discover all the treasures of the
earth, nor that they should reap all the ad vnio
tagea which were designed for untold mil

reflect that it is out of the power of any party
of prosp, ctors to discover all the treasures
that are hidden in the eaith's bosom.

A young man who crossed the range a few

Bowe writing the above, I have learned
thole about the diamond fields. A party went
out from Fort Bridger a few days ago, under
the auspices of Colonel Brackett, Judge Car
ter, and others, aud the reports name bank
that the diamondS have been found. I have
just seen a letter from a gentleman who went
to the mines, who says: "The weather is so
bad we ()anent work the ground until spring.
We picked up In three hours fifty carats of
rubies, and twenty-six diamonds, one of about
throe carets." The gentleman who wrote
this letter is a diamond dealer in New York.
