WESTLEY FROST,
OF FAYETTE COUNTY
opp!CIAL C011.111:rTION.
It is an undoubted fact that Now York Cit.
and Chicago aro the two most corrupt cities
in America. The depravity of the officials of
these municipalities is astounding, and how•
the tax payers stand the wholesale manner in
which they are fleeced, we are at a loss to im
agine. We are glad to know that the public
officers of Pittsburgh and of Allegheny coun
ty are mainly honest men. There may, it is
true, be small leaks in the disposition of the
public funds, but if so, they amount to mere
trifles, and the leak is alwaysstopped as soon
as it is discovered. Public officers in this
county are rather inclined to penuriousness
than liberality in the disposition of the pub
lic funds entrusted to their charge. The peo
ple here cannot complain of high-salaried
officers nor pets paid out of the people's mon
ey. But in Chicago and New Yorl: things
are different. The Chicago Tim? s charges.
and proves, beyond peradventure, that the
municipal authorities actually hire a man to
visit houses of prostitution. After passing a
night at one of these houses, and paying for
it in money furnished by city officials, he the
next day goes and prosecutes the keeper of
the house. For this delectable business he
receives from the city $9 a week, and all the
money he may require to prosecute said bus-
But this is a petty matter compared with
the wholesale manner in which the people of
New York are swindled. A' report of the
Commissioners on the opening of Second Av
enuo for four and a half blocks, contains a
bill for services, expenses, &0., which beats
anything we ever heard of.
The following are the items in the commis
sionor's bill :
David Deans, 240 meetings.....
Henryßeekman, 240 meetings
Philip W. Flogs, 100 meetings
Adam Badeau, clerk
Carriage hire....
Surveyor's bill..
Room rent
Stationer's bill..

It ehould be borne in mind that the moneys
which the commissioners have demanded for
their services, is only to pay for declaring the
avenue opened. The expense of actual open
ing is yet to come, and the enormous amounts
which are to be pail to property owners along
the line of the opening as an indemnity for
the proportionate increase in the value of
their property, is yet to be added.
Although it is not customary to assess more
than eleven to fifteen blocks from the p oint of
opening, the commissioners in this casc‘ hare
assessed all the property down as far as !lons-
Va street, a dist reo of six mils from the
contemplated improvement. .1 large portion
of this property has already paid two assess
ments fur opening the avenue, and yet these
wise commissioner , after meeting two hun
dred and forty times, and charging four dol
lars each for their attendance at every meet
ing, arrived at the conclusion that the own
ers could stand one more assessment, and
they no doubt thought that by spreading it
over a course of eia miles, the individual ex
pense would be eo small that it would not
attract attention
Fortunately for the tax. payers of New
York, this bill must be approved of by the
Supreme Cuurt before it can be puid. It '
would seem from such exposition as well as
from other continually recurring statements
of official corruption, that honest men must he
scarce in Gotham.
Wo have now a commission at work for a
similar purpose in this city—the opening of
Pennsylvania Avenue to Fifth Streeet. We
aro not informed what the actual expenses of
the commissioners have been in performing
this duty, but we will venture to say, that it
will not be one twentieth what the New York
officials have charged, In this county such
flagrant swindling of the public by those ap
pointed to servo it, would forever disgrace all
parties connected with it.
THE Gazette does not acknowledge its er
ror in stating that the appropriations of Con
gress were $92,000,000, when they were not
two•thirds of that amount. It does not, how
ever, re-iterate the assertion which it had pre
viously made, from which we infer, that it
sees;its error, but having said "the horse was
sixteen feet high," intends to stick to it. It
gives us, however, a new lot of figures of al
leged governmental expenditures for the last
sixteen mouths, which may, or may not, be
correct. We may take occasion to analyze
these, when the weather is cooler than it is
The Ga;;etb: charges us with having made
"ungentlemanly allusions" to one of its edi
tors. If an allusion to the gentleman's pre
vious political position before becoming one
of the proprietors of the Gazelle is "ungen
tlemanly," our education has not been a suffi
ciently polished one to perceive it. If we
had said that one of the editors of the Ga
'7.ette, was a few months ago a "bloody Locofo
co," and edited a "Loeofoco - Newspaper," we
might have been charged with discourtesy in
the language used to announce a fact. But
we did not use such terms. The editor al
hided to is a stranger amongst us and a gen
tleman. We intended no discourtesy. if he
has "turned his coat," it is no more than oth
ers high in favor in the party to which ho now
belonTs have done. If he is satisfied with
his affiliation with the "happy union" for
which he so eloquently pleads, we shall not
disturb hint with reminiscences which appear
to be distasteful to him.
TilE PEOPLES CON VE NTION.
We refer our readers to our local column
for the proceeding of the United American
and People's Convention held yesterday. The
Convention was fully attended, both the cities
and a large number of the boroughs and
townships being represented. The movement
is one of portent to the opposition. It is
idle for the Gazette to talk about a" happy
union" as long as so many, of the members
of its party are determined in their opposition
to union. The Convention adjourned until
the :nth of August to nominate a county
ticket. That it will nominate such a ticket
and that it will be supported by a large
and retpeotable number of the members of
the opposition party, we have not a doubt.
All these things
; are working well for the
Democracy, and badly—very badly—for the

A similar spirit of reform is manifested in

builds up a class of teachers at the expense of

The loan bill which passed Congress just at
the close of the session was for fifteen mil
lions of dollars. This was all the administra
tion asked. When the bill was pending in the
House, Mr. Howard, of Michigan, moved to
increase the amount to thirty millions. The
proposition was very generally supported by
the Black Republicans, but voted down by
the Democratic majority. The purpose of
the Black Republicans was to vote the loan
and then to vote expenditures equal to it; and
then, by and by, to charge extravagance upon
the administration.
It will be found, we think, that the appro
priations at the late session have been gov
erned by considerati,ns of the wisest econo
my. It is certain that estimates of the de
partments were governed by such considera
tions. It is observable that the Black Res
publicans have uniformly voted for the lar
gest proposed expenditures, except when they
could embarras the administration by retard
ing some important measure, such as the di:-
ficiency bill, and the increase of the army bill.

Last spring, I planted my potatoes in three
different ways, viz :
First bed large potatoes one in hill.
second bed large potatoes, out, ono piece in a
hill.
Third bed small potatoes two in a hill.
The ground was manured broadcast and plow

large potatoes, three weeks earlier, than the
third bed, and kept ahead of the eo.cend and
third beds during the entire season. I find
plaster spread on the hills after they are up a
decided advantange. On the 20th of March I
planted them, putting the dirt out of the box in
the hills. On the 15th of June 1 had good po

potatoes raised on a piece of ground of the same
size. Some of hills have twenty-five large pota

to get good seed of all kinds except potatoes.
In the great majority of cases small potatoes
are the only kind planted. As valuable a crop
as this should receive more attention than it does

Nsw Tonic, June . z:;.—At four o'clock this
afternoon a fire broke out at the lumber yard of
Messrs. Bullock & Many, on Water and Orange
streets. Owing to the high winds the flames
spread rapidly along the piles of lumber and ex
tended to the adjoining 'umber yard, Tread
well's fur factory, Luther's extensive coal yard,
and the freight depots of the Central railroad.
The efforts are directed towards saving the
latter, but the heat is so intense as to render it
almost impossible, and it is greatly feared that
the exertions to prevent the fire from spreading
still further will be futile.
Up to the cresent tine, (eight o'clock, P. M., )
property valued at $50,000 has been destroyed,
aid the fire is still raging.

Judicial Dignity its Lositetana
Speaking of Grand Juries reminds me that
the Parish Court is now in session:here, his Hon
or, Kiah Kogers, presiding—old Kye—or "Ky,"
they usually called him Old Ky WEIR passing
sentence on a e iminal, and delivered bimself as
follows :
"Prisoner stand up 1 Mr. Kettles., this court
is under the painful necessity of passing sentence
of the law upon you, sir. This court has no
doubt, Mr. Kettles, but what you were brought
into this scrape by intoxicating liquor. The
friands of this Court all know , that of that is
any vice this Court abhors, it is intetnpsranc•.
When this Court was a young man, Mr. Kettles,
it was censidcrably inclined to drink ; and the

se fullowe :
"The jury will take 12;,tice that this Cou-t is
well negotiated with the nature of the case..._
I'v'tien the Court started out in the world. it fol
lowed the business of overseeing, and of there
is any business which the Court understands, it
is bosses, mules and niggers--though the court
never rverseed in his .ifs for leas than $BOO--
and this Court in hos-racin was always natere,lly
gif!ed ; and this Court in running a quarter race
whar tho hosses was livened, could always turn
a boss so as to gain 15 feet in a race ; and that
on a certain OCOA 8i Oil, in the parish of West Vel
liciana, it was one of the conditions of the race
that Ey Rogers shouldn't turn nary one of M..
bosses."
Anr.ther case was up, and two lawyers got in
to a fight—one of them a preacher of our church.
Old Ky called hastily for the sheriff—
" Mr. Sheriff ! Mr. Sheriff! Take them to 'Jail.
I'll be d—d of this court will have her dignity
insulted in this manner!"
O'CONNELL'S FIRST SUCCESS.-At the begin
ning of his career at the bar O'Connell was retain
ed as counsel in an action between the city of
W— - —and another party respecting a salmo,n
weir on the river. The corporation claimed it
as belonging to them ; their opponents maintained
it was an open fishery. Little was known of its
history further than it was in the neighbourhood
of an ancient Danish colony. But it had always
been known by the name of "the lax-weir," and
this formed the chief ground of the legal resistance
to the city's claim. Able counsel was urging it,
while O'Connell, who had to reply for the city,
was anxiously racking his fertile brain for a re
ply. But little relief came thence. "Lax," it
was argued, meant loose, and loose was the op
posite of reserved, or preserved, or guarded, or
under any custody of a corporation. Nothing
could be plainer. A laz weir could not be a
close weir (though such reasoning might not tip
ply to corporations or constituencies,) and no
weir could have borne the title of lax if it bad ever
been a close one. At this critical conjuncture
some one threw across the table to O'Connell a
screwed up twist of paper, according to the wont
of courts of justice. Ho opened, read it, and
nodded grateful thanks.
A change came over his countenance ; the well
known O'Connell smile, half frolic, half sarcasm
played about his lips, he was quite at his ease,
and blandly awaited the conclusion of his an
tagonist's speech. He rose hardly to reply, with
hardly a listener; by degrees the jury was mo
tionless. the lack-lustre eye of the Court regain
ed its brightnase ; the opposing counsel started
in amazement and incredulity, and O'Conncl 's
clients robbed their bands in delight. What bad
he done ? Merely repeated to the gentlemen of
the jury, the words of the little twist of paper.
"Are you aware that in Danish lochs means
salemen ?" The reader may imagine with what
wit and scorn the question was prepared, with
what an air of triumph it was put, and by what
confident demolition of all the adversary's lax
argumentation it was followed. Whether there
was then at hand a Danish dictionary, (a Ger
man one would be sufficed) or to the Judge
reserved the point, I know not ; but the confu
sion proved triumphant ; O'Connell carried the
day, was made a standing of the city of W ,
and never after wanted a brief. But he sought
in vain after his speech for his timely succorer ;
but no one knew who had thrown the note.—

The number and formidable character of diseases of
the Liver have long challenged the attention of medical
men. Some of their diseases, classed under the general
term of Consumption., have been supposed incurable, and
the unhappy patient allowed to die, without medical science
to offer him a hope of recovery. Happily this can no longer
be the case. A remedy has been found will& will cure all
complaints, of whatever character, arising from derange

it from disease, cats off and extirpates the complaints which
