ALLENTOWN, PA., DEOBBII3ER 4, 1872
DEATH OF HORACE GREELEY.
Horace Greeley, "Founder of the New York
Tribune," died on Friday evening at ten min
utes before seven o'clock, , ln his slxty.aecond
year.
He was born In New Hampshire, February
8,1811, of Scotch•lrish parents, the ancestors
of whom ware of Puritanical stock and emi
grated to this country in 1040: In his infant
days Horace was a delicate boy, and on ac
count of tho death of two of her children'pre
vious to his irth,his mother was led to regard
him even more fondly and tenderly than she
otherwise might have done. Ho was almost
constantly in her company and learned to read
at her knee, and soon acquired the facility of
reading even sidewise or upside down,.to the
great wonder of the neighbors. When he
was thirty-four months old he was sent to
school, and if we have understood him cor
rectly, could read at that ago. 'ln his Recol•
teeth:ins of a Busy Life, he gives a description
of his first teacher and the manner of discip
lining the school during his first Winter. He
continued in attendance at that school during
the next three years, and obtained the honor
of being the best speller in the school, where
children of all ages were in attendance.
During his seventh and eighth years he at
tended shool in Bedford, and hero he learned
"that this is a world of hard work." When
the sun rose he rose to work, and afterwards
got to school when the forenoon session was halt
through. At one time an offer was made h)
the leading men of his neighborhood to pa)
for his schooling at Phillips Academy at Exe
ter, and afterwards send him to College, but
the offer was refused by his parents, niter
proper deliberation, saying that they would
give their children the beet education they
.could afford, and there stop. In 182.0 his fain .
lly experienced the hard times caused
by British manufactures undermining
the industries of their Londonderry,
and we have no doubt the lessen there learned
helped to make him a strong Protectionist in
after years. In August, 1820 the old home.
stead was sold by the sheriff; and in Jane.
ary, 1821, the faintly was removed to West
haven tow camp, VCTIDOnt, %% here a small lions,
had been hired for $l6 per 11111111 M, where his
father chopped a-cod at any cents a day, tin'
in the following Summer was assisted by his
sons, including Horace, in a contract of clear.
ing fifty acres of wild land.
Horace early resolved to be a printer and
when eleven years old applied fo• en appren
ticeship, but was rejected as too young. In
Itrfl he was apprenticed in the office of the
kern Spectator, at East Poultney, Vt.,
wbil Ills father moved to Erie county, Pee
During his apprenticeship he visited his father
to ice, making the journey on en Erie canal
packet. In June; 1830, he completed his rip
prenticeship and went to Buffalo, and thence
home. lie then sought employment at his
trade, receiving short jobs at rations offices,
until he received a situation in the ofileg of
the Erie Gazette at $l5 per month.
From Erie he went to New York City,
where he spent a Saturday in search of work,
without success, but on Monday, through the
kindheartedness of a couple of Irishmen, It
was directed to John T. West's office, when
he secured a job on the New Testament.
About the first of January, 1832, he found
employment on the Spirit of the 'Flutes, a
sporting paper,•and about the first of January.
1888, entered into partnership with Francis
V. Story in the printing business, anti printed
Dr. Shepard's Morning Post, which lived
about a month. When the firm was coot
mencing to make headway, his partner was
drowned, and his place was supplied by Jonas
Winchester. On-March 24th, 1834, The New
Yorker, a weekly, was Issued, Horace editing
and making up the paper, the former part of
the work being done by him for the billowing
seven years and a half. The paper was, after
' 11l success, discontinued Septendier 20, 1841
In 1858, he published the Jeffersonian, and in
1840, the Log Cabin, both campaign .prieers,
the latter attaining a circulation of 80,000.
On the 10th of April, 1841, lie issued the
first number of the New Y o rk Tribune. 1'
was a small penny paper, W hag in politics.
and intended to counteract the influence of
the Sun end Herald. He undertook the pro
put, urged to do so by prominent Whigs an
with plentiful promises of flnaneial assistance,
but like all politicians Mr. Greeley found them
ready to make the most generous promises.
but only one ready to sustain the sanctity et
an obligation when relief was needed, and
that one, to his honor be it said, was Jolliet
Goggeshall, whose name, f d• this one simple
act, should be revered by all these who have
loved HoraCe Greeley. His strugg,tes ht lin
early days of the Tribune are well.ltnown
and so la his prosperity in subsi Tient years.

REFOItH IN THE JUDICIARY.
Amon.r the most sensible propositions in•
troduced into the Constitutional Coneentioo
is one to simplify th.. judiciary by abolishing
the Mikes of Associate Judges, and , do estab.
fish an Orphans' Court, the presiding officered'
which shall be learned in the law. The Ale..
of Register of Wills will 11160 be abolished, the
Clerk of the Orphans' Court will be under the
jurisdiction of the Judge of the Orphans' C o urt
and all business which la now clone under the
Register will be brought into this Court.
appears that this plan would save money,
would be tuore satisiactory than the present
system and would relieve the law front a great
many unpleasant complications.
There is also a project to make the office ul
President Judge appointive by the Governor,
the Supreme Court to confirm or reject the
appointment. As a great deal el the labor of
the Supreme Judges is due to the incomps
tency or bad judgment of Judges of the lower
Courts, It is lair to presume that they would
not confirm any appointment until they had
taken especial care to inform themselves upon
the appointee's knowledge of the law, good
character and other qualifications to properly
discharge the duties Of the position. Maklog
the term to continue during good behavior,
would relieve the appoithee from temptations
to guide his actions so as to best please his
political supporters, and we feel could fent flora
therefore the system would Hume justice more
fully than under the elective, system. The
Judiciary is one of the most important breach.
ea of the government and it wilf-become even
more so when new powers are added to it by
the new c ustitution. 1 herefore too much
attention cannot be given to devising sorb re
forms as will remove all chance for temptation,
and thus remove all . grounds ter suspicion
among the people that a Court could be gov•
erned by bias. The Judiciary of Peunsy lvn
nia, we are proud to say, is an honor to fall
grand old Commonwealth. No one can te al
fully compare it will that which has disgraced
New York. It is true the T , ilinne did riot
some severe, ungriminied and ludast ri ilce•
tions upon the Judiciary of Pioladu•ipli et, from
u% Web remarks the London papers placed us
on a Jevel with New York, hut it must be roe
membered that those Unwise strictures wen
made in a time of great political excitement.
following close upon the heels of the \l l
tercet of the DensoCraC : y of Pennsylvania ;
when, we admit, it was hard for those resid
log outside the State to conirreliend how so
popular a man as Horace Greci• y could not
carry treason and corruption .:c essfully
through a political contest. That paper, w.
believe, stands alone in its efforts to louver the
Judiciary of Pennsylvania in the estimation
of the world, but notwithstanding the general
high character of our Judges. the existing per
fectlnos of our Judicial system and its work •
logs, there are reforms which cue be tomeost
to add to the efft ctiveness if the present spa

the evils which may attack us in the future.

TII E FIRST " S !MUCK" JURY.
The Gre , rt ritittgo/ Cage—Prominent uvrehonthe
II tther , ' and relbihnel, Among the J 'sr!, maw
M!!!II!
The most remarkable civil action in the an
nate et American Jurisprudence Is to be tried
In the United States District Court in New
York next week. It is the ej , ctment suit of
George V. ashington Bowen agt. NP18 , 41
Chase, to recover possession of the famous
„ Jumel Estate," consisting of 126 acres of the
finest land on Washington [lights, in this
city ; et the property on the north east corner
of Broadway and Liberty•st., and of a• lot In
L•berty-st. ; the whole being wortb, at present
Intake prices, aboui $6,000,000. 'I he same
suit was tried in January last, anti attracted
public attention all over the country, although
there was nothing peculiar in the jury, and
the whole of the proceedings were much less
interesting than thotte which are to follow'
promise to be. his view of the fact that the
interests involved are so enormous, the court
has now ordered "a struck jury," the fir t, it
is understoOd, over impact led in this country.
It consists of a panel of forty-eight prominent
citizens, trout which the Jury to try the case
is pruned by the counsel on each side, alter
timely striking out one name after another,
until only twelve remain.
The great Tichborne case, tried In London
last year, occupied 11 substntial business
men for nearly nine months. Men who were
making $50,000 a year by trade had to aban
don all business and do the hardest work of
their lives for $5 a day. But the Jumel is a
case Involving larger t states, and the Jury
promises to be made up of men of a still richer
,ad busier class. It is impossible to guess
how long the case w ill 4e betore the Jury ; but
die former trial occupied 24 days, and the
polies to it have since spent nearly a ear anti
vast sums of money In collecting further testi
mony. Besides the opposing lawyers It ow
each other's strong and weak points now ; anti
have fallen into a contest, perhaps even more
Muer than the feeling between plaintiff and
elendaut ; so that there are prospects of
eriminations end recritninntlens, of charges
of "(Nun pprty," -barratry," "subornation,"
sod what not, w ith voluminous testimony and
Argument upon each charge, So that the poor
jurymen will be lucky, if u.ey come to an end
h the trial before New Year's, to say nothing
• , I the ilme it :nay take them afterward to
make up their minds.

It is probable that a new plume of this cu
rious case may be developed by this trial, mul
it is whispered that a nets' claimant may ap
near and enter suit for possession of the im
mense estates. On the original trial, it will
be remembered, the jury disagreed ; neither
Bowen nor Chase succeeded in establishing a
title to the prnporty, ths.ugh the hiller wou too
in possession. It is now claim , dby lawyers
familiar with 'he issue that by escheat in de
fault of heirs, the estate is really the property
of the !-;tate of New York. At any rate it is
sohje..!t, of dismission among lawyers, who
say that since tilt se T..6,001+,000 are held under

THE LAST BLOW.
Prom the son. •
One of the most painful and affecting circum.
stances to the last days of Horace Greeley is
the fact that the blow which seems to have
finally overthrown his reason was stock by
his own assistant in the conduct of tho Tri
bune, Mr. White law Reid, who had been in
trusted with the control of that Journal while
Its chief editor,was engaged in the Presidential
canvass.
the election took place en Tuesday, Nov.
and on the Thursday following (only two
days afterward) his card was conspicuously
published in the New York Tribune.
In this card there is nettling to Indicate
mental &rang. ment. Oa the contrary, It is
the langaage of one somewhat depressed per.
haps by a great political .'isappointment, but
yet In the Mb possession of his intellectual
faculties, uttering himself in manly and not
discouraging language But on the same day
with this card and following after it in the edi
lorial columns of the same paper Mr. Whltelaw
Held published the subjoined astonishing ar
ticle :

•• There has been no time, until now, with.
in the last twelve years, when the Tribune
was not supposed to keep, for the benefit of
the idle and incapable', a sort of Federal em
ployment agency, established to get places un
der the Government for those who were India•
posed to work for their living. Any man who
had ever voted the Republican ticket believed
that it was the duty and the privilege of the
editor of this paper to get him a place in the
Custom House. Every red-nosed politician
who had cheated at the caucus and fought at
the polls looked to the editor of the Tribune
to secure his appointment as gauger,or us army
chaplain, or as Minister to France. Every
campaign orator came upon us after the battle
was over for a recommendation as Secretary
of the Treasury or the loan of half a dollar.

by the operation; and wanted to know what
the committee intended to do about it With.

asked what right he bad to lock up that
amount of money. Then be got angry, and
told them that It was none of their business ;
that the money was his own and ho could do

that the committee found they had tnade a
mistake. Smith collected shout fitly dollars.
witness fees, and returned to New York, and,
that was the last ofthe investigation. A gen
th man who was also a witness before the ram
mitten said, subsequently, that Smith actually
carried the $5,000.000 on his person for two
days. The lining of his overcoat was tilled
with pockets, and into tin se the money was
stowed.
Smith is about thirty-five or thirty-eight
years old, short of statue, slight of frame, and
red of hair. The latter he wears cut close,
and his whiskers a la militatr, or mutton-chop,
with moustache. - His name is not Henry M.
nor Ilenry N; Smith, but Norman Henry
Smith. He is a native of Tioga, Pa., a little
village which Is shut in with charming grace
from the outside world by n circle of bills,
which In fall presents such an unchanging ap
pearance that bangs toone's memory forever.
In this pretty little village this monster opera
tor was horn, and here he is called to tots day
plain TOM Smith, a nickname lie got when a
baby, It Is nothing against Tom that he spent
his young days about as tither boys di'. and it
is nothing agalabX him that he learned the shoe
maker's trade, and was an excellent workman.
It is said there that Puns Smith eau 111B4C the
brat " fine" boot of any man in America.
A love scrape. If I am correctly informed,
drovo him from his hammer and lap stone, and
took him to Buffalo a year or two before the
war., While there he attended a course of lu
struction In one of the " business colleges"
which were so common then. From there he
operati d in Buffalo in a small way, going
finally to Albany. He could not long remain
hi such a place, and he tmned his eyee toward
New York.
Ilia career as a money maker is without pa
rallel in history. It would be idle to estimate
his wealth, for today it might be tw.-nty mil.
lions and to morrow ten. Be Js called the
successor of Jun Fisk, but tbat i an insult to
him. He possesses the same re kless daring,
hut he brought to his experience a keener and
more deliberate judgment and intelligence than
runt bad..,
Bealdse, he has none of the " fsst" qualities
which Fisk possesses. He has no desire to
display his wealth ostentatiously ; he does not
care to build an opera house that be may have
The privilege of the green room, and is not
likely to run a :inept steamers merely to shOw

himself at the head of a regiment at the cost
of thousands of dollars. He lives as becomes
