A new party, calling itself the Na
tional Labor party, is organixing itself
for the next presidential campaign.
Delegate.* from all the States are to
meet at Colntnbus, Ohio, on the third
Wednesday of October forth# purpose
of nominating candidates for the offi
ces of President and Vice-President ol
the Unite*! States.
The land grabbers are not all dead
yet. On Tuesday of last week alone,
eighteen millions of acres were asked
for in the house hv these land sKaling
sharkes. If I'nele Sam's congress
men ain't careful, there will not be
enough of territory left, to bury the
old tellow should be ever kick the
bucket. We hope a few acres will be
kept in reserve for a "rainy day."
The radicals feel the close quarters
they arc getting into, and that theii
organization is growing weaker. They
have become alarmed as to their
chances in the next presidential cam
paign, and are endeavoring to fix up
some electoral votes out of the nu/rf*
territories, by admitting them as slates.
From Washington we learn that the
rads in congress are reviving the rot
ten-borough system for the Preside n
tial campaign. The Senate Territori
al Committee reported tyo bills, oui
of which they hope to get six electoral
votes, for the admissiou of Colorado
and New Mexico as State- into tin
Union. These euablingacts are to bt
passed this session, so that local gov
ernments may be formed in time foi
the admission of the Territories into
the Union as States in the next Con
gress.* Colorado has a population, ac
cording to the recent census, 0f30,906.
This shows a marked falling off in
The population since 1861, when a
population of 60,000 was claimed for
the Territory. The explanation made
is that the floating mining population
of that day has gone to other points.
New Mexico has au area of 110,000
-quare miles, and her population, ac
cording to the census just taken, is
144,000, of which 86,000 are whites
and the remainder Indians and half
breeds.
Orleauist Intrigue.
Advices from London say that the
Orleanist legitimists have formed a
powerful coalition, thc,priuci|>al head
quarters of the movement has been se
cretly advanced, and is rapidly gain
ing strength and influence throughout
the whole of France. Many individu
als of power and influence have been i
attached to the cause, the majority
embracing the proposition of a resto
ration of the Orieanist Dynasty to the
throne of France rather than have to
submit to the recall of the house of
Napoleon or to endure the danger and
interna] strife which must shake the
country to its foundation during the
formation and establishment of a re
public. Agents have been appointed
in every department throughout
France for the purpo>e of dissemina
ting the principles of the movement
and proselyting for the cause.
The Grantkes, it appears, have no
other fodder to feed upon, than the
Ku-Klux weed. If Ku-Kiux don't
serve as an invigorator, why then they
will die an early death of desponden
cy. Grant's chances to lie re-elected,
depend upon his getting the electoral
votes of the southern states; without
these, he is a dead duck. Grant un
derstands that, and how to "fix"
the southern States, that's what he ]
now wishes to get at. He can't de
pend upon the nigger—for Sambo is j
the millstone around the neck of radi
calism that has driven the decent re
publicans into the democratic ranks,
and Cuffy himself will not stick to his
white rad breddern, as elections al- j
ready held have shown. But, what's j
to be done? Ah, Grant's got it.:
the south again, for the ;
dozenth time: He got it into his !
brain to have a congressional commit
tee go down to Dixey and investigate, I
and seo whether the terrible Ku-Klux-1
t-rs can not be used as a pretext to re
construct, since the south persists
in giving democratic majorities not-,
withstanding she has. been told over
again, not to do it. The congression
al Ku-Klux smellers have gone down,
and we expect soon to hear some hor
rible stories of outrages, and that the 1
only healing balsam is reconstruction, <
which means, bayonets and such con-
gressioual enactments us will give the j
administration every facility to estab-
"republican" 6tate governments
down there and secure them tfie ut- j
most freedom to vote for the re elec- I
tion of Grant, and none other, and j
even be magnanimous enough to assist
from Washington, as was tried in the' '
late elections in Philadelphia, New (
York, and a few of the states, where j s
however the sovereign people hail the 1
impudence to vote ferninst Grant and |
his bayonets.
As soon as these congressional Ku- ' 0
Klux smellers return, we expect to see n
every radical sheet filled with stories
of dreadful violence in the £outh, hor- li
rible muttlere, <&•-, fal& anti real, tbfc ft
latter furnished to order hy ecoundrels
(Vom the north, and charging them
upon the Ku-Klux, of which we
have frequent instances, and the cry
will ho, the couth must be re-coiwtruc
ted. Not one of these congressional
Ku-Klux smellers is to good to do hie
share in raping southern or northern
ladies, in the south, and then incorpo
rating his deviltry in the report a* a
Ku-Klux outrage.
On 2nd iust., the St. Croix and su
perior bill met a defeat in the house ot
representatives, at Washington, which
it is refreshing to chronicle. This
was a huge land grabbing scheme, by
which, as one of its friends stated on
the tloor, "only a little over one mil
lion" acres of the public lands were to
be given away.
Our member, Hilly Armstrong, a
usual, voted with the laud grabbers.

Washington, Feb. 1. — When the
Senate wcut into executive sessiou to
day. Senator Chandler moved to dis
charge the Committee oh Foreign Re
lations front auy further consideration
of the nomination of the Rev. Mr.
Cramer as Minister to Denmark.
Mr. Suutner sprang to his feet and
said; "I object for the reason that in
two mouths the Committee has been
unable to find any reasoti whv he
should be confirmed, except because he
is the President's brother-in law"
This defiant remark fell like a bomb
shell into the Senate, and the Vice-
President said : "Objection being made,
the motion cannot be entertained to
day."
I'he Republican party in OoßflW
seeius to bo drifting around without
any leader or uuitv of purpose. In
the Senate the Democrats and Repub
licans combined to put Joshua R. Hill
■n as Senator from Georgia, and in the
House ther again cowbiued to abolish
the test oath enable rebels to hold office,
wherever President or people will give
it to them.
Mr. Chandler, as i> bis wont, made a
fierce reply to Sumner, which brought
>ut an exciting discussion on all the
relatives that the President had appoin
ted to office. Mr. Trumbull made a
caustic speech in defense of the action
of Mr. Sumner's committee. A Sena
tor got up and read a list of twenty
seven names of the President's relations
who had been appointed by him to
office. J"his fact seemed to squelch the
irate Michigander for the Senate soon
therealter voted that the Foreign Re
lations Committee should go on with
its investigation of brother-in-law Cra
mer.
In 1868, during the month of May,
the Radical party declared in conven
tion to Chicago, that the question of
-uffrage belonged of right to the Slates.
In 1869, for the purpose of forcing the
obnoxious Fifteenth Amendment upon
the country, the leaders of party asser
ted that Congress might interfere so
far as to secure the right of the elec
tive franchise to all persons, but might
not go further. Iu 1871, thev declare
that all the elections and registrations
come directly under the eye of the
general government, which has the
right to appoint its agents to conduct all
electious regardless of State and local
laws. All this was done, and is being
doue, to establish the rigbt of supreme
control in the central government.
That principle firmly establshed and
it will declare elections unnecessary
xiid assume monarchical authority.
To this end and this alooe are the
Radical leaders working.— PitUburg
An unhappy couditiou of matrimo
nial affairs is developed in the state of
the divorce market in New Hampshire.
During the year 1870 three hundred
and thirteen applications lor divorce
were brought before the Supreme Court
of that Stale. Of the whole number
two hundred aDd fifty-seven of theae
divorcee were granted. A year's re
cord such as this must give food for
serious contemplation. And all this

"There han been discovered io Jef

may be named the greatest iron moun
tain in the United .States. From all
reports it will furnish an inexhausti

County Law Library.
On .Saturday Jan. 28th afier the ad
journment of Court, a meeting of the
officers of the Court and members of
the bar was heid* to consider the pro
priety of repealing the law appropria
ting the fines imposed by the Court
iu Centre Co., to the purchase of a
public law Library. On motion Hon.
C. A. Mayer, President Judge was
elected President of the Meeting aud
John Moran, Esq.. Prothonotary was
elected Secretary. The County Com
inissioners were invited to participate in
the proceedings, and did so. After the
subject had been thoroughly discussed
by several speakers the following were
unanimously adopted;
Retired, Thst this meeting composed a* ,
it is of the Judges, Members of the Bar, '
officers of the Court and the Commission
er* of the County of Centre, most respect
fully but most earnestly remonstrate and
Firotest against the repeal of the act of the
4th, February IWHi relative to the pur
chase of a Law Library in the County of
Centre, under 'which a respectable library
for the use of the County ■* being collect
ed, bclenving as they do that the same is
not only beneficial to the Court and mem
ber* of the Bar but conduces greatly to
euononiy in the administration of justice.
2. That a committee of three consisting
of Jno. H. Orvis, H. N. McAllister and
Win. H, Blair, Esqrs., be appointed to pre
pare an address for publication on the sub
ject. JNO. MORAN, Srrfy.
ADDBHB.
(Owing to want of time, we are not
able to print entire the address pre
pared by said committe, the following
extract#, however embody it# main
feature#. — ED.)
But it is contended that the Centre
Co. Law Library is not in auy proper
sense a public library, ljut is an insti
tution established at the public ex
pense for the exclusive benefit of a
favored class, the lawyers, and for the
purpose of paving them the expense '
jf buying books. This is an entire j
misconception of the case. The act of j
lie Legislature providing for the es
aklishmeot of this library was sp- ; 1
jroved by (jov. Cujtyj Jteb. 14,1&<J6,
bb lit oectico df wbicb it a ftdfowfi : 1
"Rr it ewiefrd dr. That all fines
■'imposed by the Court of the Coiluty
"of Centre, and all forfeited recogni
sances, which unJei existing laws,
"are not pavable to the Common 1
"wealth of Pennsylvania, for its own
"uac. are directed to be paid to the
"committee hereafter named, for the
"purchaso of a law library, to be kept
"in the Court House of *aid County
"for the use of the ( ouri. bur owt citi
tens of said County."
It is thus provided by law that the
library is for the use of the (thr
far and the cUitrnt of the County, and
not exclusively for the lawers. It U
however contended, that being a law
library, uo one has any need or desire to
use it hut lawyers Ilea greet exleiH
this may be true, but it does not there
fore fill low that it is for the benefit of
attorneys alone. It does not save at
torneys the necessity of having their;
own private library in their offices for
every day use. A (Vill and complete
law library, however, costs more mon
ey than any attorney cu afford
to invest in books. Vet, frequently,
cases arise in the inveeligatioa ol
which attorneys are compelled to con
suit law hook* only found in pubis
or distant libraries. This is duue a)
great expense, not to the lawyer, but
to the suitor. I*t the individual cli
ents pay thwe expenses is the rep'v. ■
These clients however constitute th
ouhlic, it is one parson today and j
others to-morrow. On the same prin
ciple would the whole expense of our
judicial system be put on the parties to
a suit. It has frequently happeued,
that a whole week has been occupied I
in trying a single ejectment —to settle |
the title to one tract of land between
two rival claimauts. If the coat of the
jury, salaries of the judges, fees of at
tending constables, sou other neces
sary expeuses were to. be charged to
the parties to ths suit, it would make
a resort to the Court as a means of
settling disputes impracticable, and
cause parties to reaort to force
violence aioue to settle thier differ
ences.
In other roped* th library U ot pub
lic advantage. Before it intitution, it
was not unfrequent that tin President
judges would adjourn Court before the
usual hour in order to examine authorities
upon some point suddenly arising in a case.
This was a loss of public time, and a great
public <rpens< Yet it was unavoidable
unUss the judge was willing to make a de
cision without regard to law, which would
probably necessitate a new trial and thus
entail upon parties, witnesses and the gen
eral public, great additional expense. A
complete library in the Court House would
remedy all this. A tingle instance will
illustrate it. during the trial of the case
of Burnett | Bickel r$ Hotrcil, UiUUand A
■Co., at our last Conrt, which involved a
new and intricate question of law, hit Hn
Judge Mayer, desired to see a similar case
reported in ,1d Cranch C. C., reports, that
book was not tn the library nor was it in
the cflce ot any attorney in Bellefonte
The judge therefore had to direct a ver
dict, reaenring the question of law until he
could see the case reported in that book.
If upon examination he find his decision
wrong he will have to set aside the verdict
and give a new trial, which will cost the
County more than has been appropriated
any one year to the law library beside the
great expense entailed upon the parties
and witnesses.
From all this it muit be apparent to ev
er)- unprejudiced person, that the county
Library U of public utility, and should be
continued, even though the fund* were
drawn directly from the tax-payer* of the
county to *upport it Thu, however. U
not the rasa. Not a dollar at laxee paid
by any property owner in tbo county, it
appropriated u> up port thia Library. The
contributors to the library fund, are tha
violator* of tha taw.
The cruaker* and vlsWAg ogues, however'
allege that three An** and forfeited recog
zances were wont to be paid into the
County Treaeury; that they belong to the
tax-payers, and by thua taking them to
buy law book* w th, we are robbing the
people. AU fintr and forfeited recogni
zance* belong of right to the Statt, and
•he can donate them to whomever ohe
please*. It i* true that before the paaage
of the Library Act; the commonwealth
had by different law* given *ome ol these
line* to the county, some to school dis
trict*. some to the poor of township*, and
some to informers or prosecutors. None
of these recipient* however had any right
to complain, if the State, withdrew her do
nation and afterwards gave her bounty
to other purpose*, it was a matter of
graft and not of right that th* counties
townships and school district* even re-*
ceived any ofthis fund. *
The/esl and substantial cause of cota
■ plaint is tbi* ; that since the postage of .the
library law. the recognizances forfeited,
' and fines imposed, have been collected ac
cording to law, while before that no for-
F feited recognizance was sued out and a
targe proportion of fines actually iuipo*ed
by tbeCouit were, through various influen
i ce, remitted by the County Commissioners
i without any legal authority and in direct
contempt of the law. This cbanga in tha
administration of criminal justice falls
' haavily upon the law breakers and their
friends, and hence their opposition to the
County library. By reference to the re
cord* ofthis County it appear*that
iiß is the whole amount of fines collected
from 1X62 to Iftifi the date ofthe library act,
aperiedoflfi years being an avera|e of
$78,47 per year. This sum was divided
between the county treasury, the schools,
. poor, and the prosecutors in different pro
portions. The reader can thus tee what a
pitiable sura ha* been diverted from the
County Treasury and given for the pur
pose of this library. It is so insignificant
in amount that none but a demagoage of
the most ignorant class would make an ado
about it. On the other hand every citizen
who takes pride in our county and its
institutions should feel an interest in the
support of this library.

A Pretty Confidence Game—The
Cashier Warned by One of the
Guff—The Porters Gagged
SIOO,OOO Stolen.
Philadelphia, February 3.—About
7 o'clock last evening three men, dts
guUed a* policemen, went to the Ken
sington Bank, at the corner of Beach
and Laurel street*.called out the watch
man and told him that the bank was
to be robbed that night and they had
been detailed to remain in the bank in
order to capture the robber*. The
watchman admitted them and was
immediately overpowered, gaged, *and
handcuffed. The robbers then went
to work and did not leave the premises
till 3 o'clock this morning. The par
ticulars of the affair represent that the
cashier had beed notified of the inten
ded robbery by a confederate of the
robbers, who represented himself as a
policeman, and that he (the cashier)
gave direction* to the watchman to ad
mit the (supposed) officer*. There
were two watchmen in the bank, but
the robbers tent out one of them to get
something for the party to drink, and
during his absence the other watchman
was overpowered, and on the return of
the second oue he was serred in the
some manner. Three other confede
rates of the robbers were subsequently
admitted, and while the gang attacked
the safe one man stood with pistols
pointed at the beads of the watchmen,
though they were gagged and bound.
The burglar* were foilwl in their efforts
to open the main vault, and only suc
ceeded in forcing the safe containing
special deposits belonging to the cus
tomer* of tbe bank. The amount ta
ken is reported at about SIOO,OOU.
As far as can be ascertained about
; Ifi'i.OOO have been stolen, mostly iu
coupon government bonds. The burg
lars were very careful in making their
selections of funds to discard register
ed bonds and to take only those they
j could dispose of without much chance
of detection. The police have as yet
obtained no clue aa to the robber*. '1 he
vault of the bank was so damaged that
it could not be opened to-day, disar
ranging business considerably.

The Evils of ChhcaonM—A Foolish
Fashion.
[Here is what a lady says of throe tijtly
thing* in the Evening Mail. Whftc are
the independent women who dare to ignore
the chignon ']
The head and front of wotuan'a of
fending against the lawa ot good taste
and aounu h<alth, us well as of eleva
ted morals, has been her determina
tion of late years to wear these odious
things. I repeat that chignons are an
offense against elevated morality, be
cause, though they deceive nobody,
they are intended to deceive, and de
ceit in any form is an offense against
sound morals. The woman who
stands before her toilet-glass at bed
time and surreptitiously denude* her
head of a frowsy, dirty, and dingy
mass of dead hair, instinctively fells
the meannesa of her situation. Not
for the untold treasures of ftolconda
would she have a masculine eye gaze
upon her at that unlucky moment!
And the glance of some envious rivnl
of her own sex is almost equally
dreaded. The poor little knot of hair, j
twisted so tightlv and ungracefully at
the back of her head, looks doublv
scanty bv coutrast with the enormous
mass lying upon the dressing table ;
and at the very hour when her
thoughts should be most pure and ele
vated, she slinks away to bed, feeling
that she has boen all day acting an
unrepented lie, which she inena* to get
np and repeat on the morrow! And
to live in au atmosphere of even pem
decptiou is harmful to the truthfulness
of the soul.
Yet, as a general thing, that little
bunch of despised natural hair at the
back of a woman's head is capable of
being turned into a persona) adorn
ment, which she can wear without any
feeling of unworthiness or of self-re
proacli. I remember once calling
upon a lady friend who, not being
very well, came down with her bright
black hair twisted into a hasty but
classical knot at the bark of her head.
Her hair was by no means over-abun
dant, but this knot was so exactly in
accordance with the shape and size of
her head that the eye—pleased with
this harmony of proportion—saw in
her a grace and a beauty which hud
been hidden before, wheu the tine and
womanly outlines of her head had
been hidden under that odious half
tushel of braids and puffs called a
*iga°D.
•Tiff very U>

living gloss of the latter.
Yesterday I raw a lady in a store
who wu* deliberately ami prcmedita
edly buying a long coil of *onie horri
ble imitation of natural hair, which, I
believe, i* calle*! jute. When 1
thought of all the horrible etoriee ot
pniaritcs, nod "such like," which I
had bean) connected with this stuflf.
1 felt creepiali all over n* I thought
of her coiling it among her own liv
ing tresees.
Hut even were there not thi* strong
objection, there i* another equally
strong to mixing heavy false switches
with the natural hair. The weight
by degree pulls it out. The same can
be said of heavy ready-braided chig
.unus which are pinned over the natural
hair. And more than this, the wear
ing ofa heavy, hot ma**' at the back of
the head makes feminine life, little by
little, but a weariness both of flesh
and spirit. The head, being over
heated, ach<- aud achts on. Kcing
overloaded, it droops; and the con
stant strain upon the muscle* of the
back, of the neck induces a cbrouic
pain in that regiou. And what is all
this self-inflicted pain for? Simply
to carry on attempted counterfeiting,
which deceives nobody.
There is no good iu it. • Year* ago,
some U-aulv discovered that it wa*
becoming to her to wear all her hair
gathered into one simple knot, low at
the back of the neck, and.drawn down
smoothly over tho car*. Instantly
there was a perfect furore among all
women to wear their hair like this,
All the feminine ears, big and little,
ugly and pretty, were hidden away
under sleek bauds of hair, a* religious
ly as to have bet-u born with ears war
a c.imc in woman to be deprecated
and coucealed! Yet all the pretty
face* were just a* pretty iheu a* lliev
are now under a ditfereut style of hail
dressing, and all the ugly oues wen
just as ugly.
I mar venture safely to say tba
nothing can add to the beauty of i
fair face so much a* wearing the hai
in a style naturally becoming to it—
whether that be fashionable or not.

As the war is prolonged it* horror
increase. The bitter weather unde
, which we are shivering in this countr;
would alone involve a terrible aggrava
lion of misery. In thi* n-sjiect it i
, long since such suffering* have beei
inflicted, even in war. Hut such hor
riblc scenes as were described bj "/
Military Correspondent are but to.
probable in such ojieratious a* the Ar
inv of the Iroire has lately- been engag
ed" in, and it i* to le feared they havi
been many limes multiplied within thi
ooure of the present month. That ar
my has been executing a Continuou
"strategic movement" cf retreat, nm
fighting almost continfiou* hntlle* du
ring some of the severest weather o
the month. Hoth armies have heoi
strained to the uttermost, and have hai
no time to look behind them. The hor
rible consequence has been that thi
wounded have practically boeu* lefl a:
uncared for as the dead. They havi
in some instances been gathered offtbi
field of battle, though there must be
numbers who have been left to peris!
of cold ou tl.o spot where they fell
Hut even when carried under sheltci
they have simply boon hca|>cd togeth
er in "uninhabited houses, and liav
sometimes lain there for days unatteii
ded, unfed, and almost uncovered. The
scene at Heaugency, described by"A
Military Correspondent," is one ever
more horrible because a more prolong
cd scene of agony. In a house which
had once been a I'eneion dc Jennet
Fillet, "evcrv room from ccilnr to root
was crowded with dead and starving
nieu, lying so thick it was impossible
to move among them." It was >atun
I day, and ninny of them had been there
since the Wednesday, some since the
Thueeday. All that time "not one
drop of water, not one utom of focal,
hud passed their lips," nor had any
comforting hand approached them, ft
a broken legged sergeant had been able
to throw his own coat over his more
severely wounded officer that wa* the
utmost relief any of them had obtain
ed. Moreover, the window* of the
house were nil broken," and all these
day* and nights of almost Arctic cold
thev had been lying on the bare floor
witii their wounds undressed." All
the agonies of wound*, of cold, of hun-
Ser, and thirst, with all the horrors of
calli, were endured for days together
by these helpless sufferers. Tho battle,
in fact, had been raging for three days
around Heaugency, neither side gain
ing such undisturbed possession of the
town as to he üble to think of the woun
ded. Even oil the second day. Ger
man shells burst in hospitals where
French volunteers were tending Ger
man wounded. That night there wo*
only one doctor in the town capable of
performing amputations, and there
were 2(H) desperately wounded men in
one building alone. "The dead lay
thick among the dying, and as the for
mer were dingged out their places were
instantly tided. Miserable objects,
with brokeiijaws or faces halfshot iwav,
wandered about pointingto their dread
ful wounds and making piteous signals
for water, which it was impossible for
them to swallow. Officers and men,
veterans and hoys, all lay in one un
distinguishable nnp-s of misery. Every
moan that thchumau voice can utter
rose from that heap of agony." This
was on the Thursday. How many
more scenes like the one we have just
J escribed might there have been seen.
