~ Jurors Wages.
Last week, we published a rule of
Court; wdoped at the present term, by
which, hereafter, all absent jurors are
to be fined. We haveno fault to find
with this rule of Court, nor with the
enforcement of the same in every in-
stance of non-attendance, where a juror
can not present a reason justifying his
absence. ; The non-attendance of per-
sons, who have been summoned as ju-
rors, very frequently causes vexatioh,
embarrassment and’ delay in Court,
and hasbeen of too frequent vceurrence
te be longer overlooked. It ‘amounts
to a mockery of the summons and a
contempt of the authorities, which i<
not only inbecoming but dangerous.
Our rights of person and property are
in a measure apitherdisposal jof the jury
in the box, and it is of importance that
a sufficient number always be present,
from which to draw a panel of intelli-
gent men, and men of quick and sound
judgment, But why do persons so
frequently neglect to appear when sum
moned as jurors? Nine cases out of
ten, because. the compensation is too
small, and is more than eaten up the
hotel hills, saying nothing. about the
loss of time and neglect of business.
With the enforcement of the above
rule, we also favor the raising of the
wages of jurors, Instead of $150, 2
juror should have 82,00 ar $2.50 per
d.y. It js wrong to ask & man work
for nothing. . Jurors, with the present
wages invariably return out of pocket,
and hence the refusal of se many to at-
tend. e :
The Speakership—Sam Josephs.
Wesee that 8am. Josephs, Democrat,
member of the House of Rep's, at Har-
risburg, is sending out circulars to the
democratic members, asking them to
support him as the democratic candi-
date fof Speaker. We hope no demo-
crat will give his vote for Jesephs, he
is one of the'most corrupt roosters at
Harrisburg, and one of the blackest
links in the “ring.” He is no honor
to the democratic party, and we hop:
the party will be spared the disgrace
¥ ¥
Speaker. Letevery pure democrat
vote against Josephs. Mr. Strang, it
is as good as settled, will be the radi
cal ehoice and of course elected—
Strang is about as corrupt as Josephs,
but we do not like to see Democrats
following the example of the radicals,
and supporting a.corrupt man. There
are men on the demoeatic side of the
House who are honest and pure; let
such an one be selected as the caucus
nominee, but as for Sam Josephs,
wae!
We notice that the Harrisburg Pa-
triot is also cautioning the Democratic
members elect, to the lower House,

he question, as tc
of journals upon t
whether the reading of the Bible be
omitted in our common schools, This
suestion, which heretofore had baen
faintly agitated, has become quite
prominent siuce the action of the Ci n-
cinnati school-board, which decided
that the reading of the Bible shall be
omitted in the publi¢ schools of that
city. We append some ,of the argu-
ments uged upon both _ sides of the
question:
The Advance, 2 Cu'ea_o paper, takes
ground in favor of omitting tie read-
ing of the Bible in common schools.

schooi systeoa in full vigor, and remove
from it whatever may gonfliet with
the religious belief of any portion of
the community, trusting. to Sunday
schools, church Thfluence, add similaf’
means to cultivate the religious nature
and to train children in an intelligent
and pure faith,” It is but little, at
best, that can be done religiously in
our public schools by a perfunctory
daily reading of a.chapter in the Bible,
while the evil of thereby driving away
a large number of children is one of
great magnitude.” Hevry Ward
Beecher, in his.thanksgiving. sermon,
said :
“He would be willing even to ex
clude the reading of the Bible in our
schools, if by that means any ‘class of
people would be better satisfied and
more zealous in supporting thesystem,
And certainly he, the sou of a Puritan
suspected of depreciating the impor
tance of Bible reading. rhe Puritans
took their stand on religious toleration;
let them stick to their text, and never
abandon the principle of perfect free
religious toleration, nor suffer other:
to impose a different principle “upon
them. /*What," says the QOutholic, ‘do
you think it proper to encourage infi-
delity-—to bring up children withant
religious education ’ Not at all. We
do not teach husbandry in the common
schools: but it does not, therefore, fol-
low that we wish to make lazy children.
Everything in its place. . Let the
church teach dogmas. Let the com-
mon school give intelligence. Let re-
ligious instruction be taught in the
household, in the Sunday school, in the
church.”
Rev. Mr. Hepworth, pastor of the
Church of the Messiah, in New York,
and Rev. Dr. Cheever, of the Church
of the Puritans—the one a Unitarian
and the other rigidly Orthodox-—are
united in support of the Bible-reading
custom in the schools. Dr. Cheever is
| reported as saying:

It is manifest that the question is not

Minister Curtin at St. Petersburg
—His Address to the Czar of Rus
sia—The Reply of the Latter.
WasaingroN, Nov. 27.—Private
advices received here contain many
interesting details coucerning the for-
mal presentation of the favorite son of
Panusylvania, his excellency Andrew
Gregg Curtin, to the czar of Russia,
The ceremonies took place at St. Pe-
tersburg, on the 28th of October, at
the winter palace. The emperor ar-
rived from his summer home on the
Sunday preceding, and Prinee Gort-
schakoff, who is the prime minister,
returned ‘a day or two before from an
extended continental tour of business
and pleasure combined, A full detailed
account in French is given in the Court
Journal, and an illustrated St. Pg,
newspaper publishes the photograph of
Gov. Curtia and a view of che formal
presentation. Our minister, for the first
time of any event of the kind in the
story of Europe, since the days of his.
Franklin, complied with the existing
act of congress and wore a suit as is
castomary in good society, and did not
appear in a richly embroidered suit
such as was worn by Hon. Simon
Cameron, Cassius McClay, and other
American ministers on such occasions.
Minister Curtin being presented by the
prime minister, Pricne Gortschaoff,
in French:
I have the honor to present to
your imperial majesty letters from the
president of the United States, accre-
diting me as envoy extraordinary and
minister plenipotentiary near your
majesty’s court. In performing this
duty I am charged by the president to
convey to your majesty congratula-
tions that the long continued relations
of peace and friendship letween the
government of the United States and
your majesty’s goverament still exist,
atid his earnest hope that’ those rela-
tions muy not only be perpetuated,
but may grow stronger and warmer as
the two countries, realize the progress
which their continental position and
their great material recources so sure.
ly promise in the near future. And
in “behaif of the govern ment and
people of my country, I am glad to
have the opportunity to give renewad
expression to their admiration and
regard for your majesty, and their er.

continuance and prosperity of a reign
made illustrious by its vigof, wisdom
and justice, i |
