Special legislation.
One of the evils, and by no means an
inconsiderable evil, attending the politic
of the country is that of special legisla
tion. Taking our own State Legislature
sa an example, we find, each year enough
Ihws enacted to make a volume of from
five hundred to twdve hundred pages.
Those affecting the entire State, usually
d; -nominated gcivsral !iv. d-itiot each year
tnbrace more thin t'w.i thirty to fift
jtages. Of such h v.ist amount of special
legislation, at least trsc things may be
prt dicatt d :
It is CQgrinouly eyeniive to tUe peo-
It i:i many cases makes confusion as to
Vrliiit the law is.
It opens a wide door to Lribcry and all
irta cf political and legislation corrup
tion. Y"e of Pennsylvania do not alone suffer
by it. Governor Hoffman, of New York,
baa taken up the cudgel against it, and in
the name of the people is carrying on a
bitter and protracted contest with both
branches cf the Legislature. It is also
atatcd that President Grant intends to
make the matter the subject of a message
to Congress, for the evil is fLund in the
Natu ral as well as the State halls of leg
islation. At the adjournment of both Sen
ate and Assembly last spring and this
ppring, scenes were enacted that ought to
make even shame blush. Members open
ly gave and received presents to such an
extent that the transaction has well been
f tyled a :grand gift enterprise." It would
be more than difficult, it would be impossi
ble, to show with what better grace or more
honesty the members of a legislative body
can receive costly gifts after the close of
their labor", than the judges of any bench
t the close of the sitting cf the Court
fhould permit the desks aud tables of the
court-room to be burdened with gifts be
stowed upon them by suiters or attorneys.
Yet for such a transaction, they would be
impeached, and rightfully. For no great
er offences than these, Lord Bacon was
deposed from the high position of Chief
Justice of England. But why connect
these transactions with the evil of special
'egUdation ? Simply because they are
pert cf and consequent cn that evil.
It matters not with what indiscretion
these things are done whether bestowed
in the name of Pompey or the name of
Cajjar. Jlen are not such simpletons as
lo believe that Senators and Representa
tives have no more urgent use for their
money than to lavish it on each other as
a paramour would on his mistress.
But the thing is done, just as it has
been done, and will be again, unless the
proper remedy is applied. It is more
worthy to discuss the remedy than merely
to denounce the evil. If these shameful
noenes and the reckless course cf our lately
adjourned Legislature will wake up the
people to the necessity of sending only
men of sterling character tj the Legisla
ture, the battle will hi half won. We are
always too ready to fly to a change in the
tatute as a cure for a political or social
evil as though public sentiment or pri
vate Tirtue were not greater and more po
tent than a hundred statutes as though
u statute availed anything in a free coun
try as a measure of social cr moral reform
when not supported by the virtue of the
people. Hence we say that the Cist thing
Mid the great thing to do is to aroue the
attention end conscience of the people.
Yet even were this done, it would not be
found an easy task t procure trustworthy
and capable men in all parts of the State
willing to sacrifice personal comfort aud
private business for the sake of one year
in the Generul Assembly. Were the term
extended, it would obviate this difficulty,
though plausible objections could be rais
ed to any extension the term. StilT, the
one-year system Ur..l - ut keep out of the
Assembly capable and worthy men wlvsv
xuight otherwise be obtained. A compre
hensive civil Code could be framed, by
which the necessity and opportunity of
special legislation could be obviated.
Hints jire thrown out that the present
Civil Cede CcmiLission will give ns such
n measure. We thall hope. The increase
.f the number of members is also advoca
ted. CVrtaiu it is that in some of the
i'tatc.? v.-here the number is greatly in cx
cits of ours, these evils are not so burden
hCme as with us. BU wc svy cgain, that
to arouse the attention and conscience of
the people la to win half the battle.
BiTOST.s from Washington sr.y that
Secr-t.-try Bone will retire from the Cabi
i.ct this week. When he accepted the
position, it wa uij:U?rtor"J that ho would

A Fool, or a. Illackguard.
It is one of the infelicities of editorial
life that a newspaper is open to the criti
cism of all. The politician, the preacher,
the merchant, the" mechanic, the labor
ing man, and even the loafer, may
criticize it as the spirit happens to move.
All this is not entirely palatable, but is
expected, and can be endured. But when
a mongrel thing like the so-calici Ttm
pcraure Vindicator undertakes- fe pass
judgment upon it. we submiS that it is
the last feather on the camel's back.
Speaking for ourselves, wc can say that we
can endure the criticism of all classes of
society, excepting feo!3 and blackguards.
The editor of the Vindicator is either a
fool, with ears a foot long, else he is a
blackguard, with itching ears and a forked
tongue. We ask it as a special favor,
that he vi-il refrain from shaking either
his cars or his tongue at us in the future.
The semi centennial anniversary of Odd
Fellowship in the United States was cele
brated in all the principal towns and cit
ies of the Union on Monday, In Phila
delphia, the ceremonies were particularly
imposing. A grand procession, which oc
cupied two and one-qaarter hours passing
a given point, was one of the features,
and a ball in the evening, attended by
thousands, was another. A delegation of
the fraternity of Ebensburg participated
in the Philadelphia celebration. The or
der of Odd Fellows is a philanthropic
organization. During the half century of
its existence, it has expended in the Uni
ted States alone the sum of $20,153,582
for the relief of the sick, assistance of
widows and orphans, and in burying the
dead. . Is it not worthy of all praise ?
Some days ago U. S. Senator Spraguc,
of Rhode Island, was delivered of a long
and wordy ppecch in favor of nobody
knows exactly what. In the course of
some debate which followed the speech.
Mr. Sprague drew a simile between a puppy-dog
and a mastiff and two certain Sen
ators. Senator Abbott, of North Carolina,
appears to have imagined himself the puppy-dog
spoken of, and forthwith made a
violent harangue, redolent of blood and
bowie-knifes. Since that date, the tele
graphic dispatches of the newspapers have
teemed with surmises as to the probability
or improbability of a duel between the po
tent, grave, and reverend belligerents.
Though not an advocate of the ''code,"
wc think this duel ought to come off. When
one Senator can stoop so low as to insti
tute a comparison between a brother Sen
ator and a dog, and when the other Sena
tor can so far forget the dignity of his
station as to rise in place and talk of "sat
isfaction," &c., some instrumentality
ought to be invoked to rid the Senate of
their mutual presence and why not "pis
tols for two ?"
There is a prospect of serious complica
tions between England and Spain, growing
out oi the recent seizure of vcsse-U. Bulce
has patched up a counter claim against
England, at which the governor of New
Providence is highly indignant. The di
rection of colonial affairs is never certain,
and these petty difficulties will vanish
when reviewed by the home governments.
Spain can as little afford to quarrel with a
promised ally a3 that ally can afford to
give up effete ideas regarding monarchial
prestige. It would, however, be singu
larly retributive if Nassau, the illicit tra
ding ground between England and the
Southern Confederacy, the den and keep
of all the pirates that preyed upon the
commerce of the United States during the
rebellion, should, for the same offences
against Spain, bring England a second
tlweinto disgrace. But these rumored
complications rest only upon the recent
telegraph despatches, which, under the
excitement now existing in the West In
dies, arc often exaggerated and frequently
entirely imaginary.
By an act of the General Assembly
of Pennsylvania, approved the 31st of
March, A. D. 1S69, a penalty of hecnty
five dollars is impesed for the killing of
any insectivorous bird ; one-half of this
fine to be paid to the informer. Here is
an opportunity to make twelve dollars and
a half and rcdcr the community effective
service. There is no practice so inhuman
as the killing of the pretty little songsters
that warble beneath our windows and glad
den our hearts. It is the duty of every
good citizen to prevent their destruction,
and this can only be done by prosecuting
those who violate the law. The birds
that are classed under this head of insec
tivorous birds are robins, martins, t wal
lows, blue bird.i. woodpecker?, &c, &c, in
fact .ill the various small birds seen in this
latitude.

We are often asked tho question, "On
what do you base-your assertion that the
ballot cau achieve so much for woman. It
has not "say they," done inuch for man;
in this country al! white men vote, ami
yet the masses ate wretchedly fed, housed,
clothed and poorly paid for their labor.
Ignorant aiike of social and political econ
omy, their voting is a mere lorm; practi
cally they have no more to do with the
government than the masses in tho old
world who have no representatioa what
ever." These., wholesale philosophers, and we
meet them every day, are incapable of any
patient process ot analytical reasoning.
If the moment a man is endowed with
the Suffrage he does not spring up into
knowledge, virtue, wealth and position,
then the right amounts- to nothing. . If a
generation of ignorant, degraded men,
whose noses liav-e been held to the grind
stone all their days, do not vote at once
with the wisdom of statesmen, then Uni
versal Suffrage is a failure, and-the despot
and the dagger are the true government.
The carelul reader ol history will eee
that with every new extension of ruhti a
new step in civilization has been taken,
aod that uniformly those nations have
been most p.osperous where the greatest
number of people have been recognized in
the government. Contrast Chiu; with
Russia, England with the United Rotates.
Where the few govern, the legi-larure is
for the advantage of the few. Where the
many govern the legislation will gradual
ly become more and more for the advauf
are of the tuauy, as fast as the many know
et.ough to demand laws for their own ben
efit. . This knowledge comes from an edu
cation in politics; and a ballot in a man's
hand and the responsibility of using it, it
the first step in this educatiuu. Evea if a
man tells his ballot, there is power in pos
sessing something that a politician must
have or perish. The Southern slaves mut
have acquired a new dignity ia the scale
of being when Judge Kelly and Senator
Wilson traveledall through the euuth to
preach to them on political questions.
The thinking men of England, us they
philosophize on the abuses of their govern
ment, see plainly that the only way to
abolish an order of nobility, a law ot prim
ogeniture and an ci-tablished church, b to
give the masses a right by their votes so
pitch this triple power into the channel;
for all the bulwarks of aristocracy will ct;e
by one, be swept away with the cduciti .ii
aud enfranchisement of the people.
Gladstone, John Bright and John S'.tiit
will pee clearly that the privileges rf the
few can be extended to the many only by
the legislation of the many. All the ben
eficial results of the broad principles they
are advocating to day, maj not be fully
realized in a generatiou, hut, to the phil
osophical mind, they areas true now Hi if
already achieved.
Tlie greatest minds in this couu'.ry, ioo,
have made most exhaustive arguments to
prove the power of the ballot and recog
nized the equality of the citizens, in our
Declaration ot Rights, iu extending fuSF
rage to all white men, and in the proposi
tion to farther extend it to all black men.
The great republican party (in which are
many of the ablest men ot the nation) de
clare that emancipation to the black man
is a mockery, without the Suffrage. When
the thinking minds on botli comments are
agreed as to the power of the ballot in the
hand ol every man, it is surpriiug to hear
educated Americans ask, "what possible
value would Suffrage be to woman '(" when
in the British Parliament, tho suffrage
was extended to a million new voters, even
Lord Derby and Disraeli, who were op
posed to the measure, paid at occe, now,
it this class are to 70te, we must establish
schools f:r their education, showing the
increasbd importance of every man who
has a voice in the government, and the
new interest of iixC rulers in bis education.
Where all vote all muJ be educated ; our
public school system is ti.e result ot this?
pnnci pie in our government. When wo
man vote, Harvard, Vale and Prii)C?ton
will throw wide open their doors.
Woman are not anom:d-ju3 beings out
side all law, that oue need make any spe
cial arguments to prove that what elevate?
and diguifies loan will educate and digni
fy woman also. When she exercises her
right of Suffrage, she will study the sci
ence of government, gain new importance
ia the eyes of politicians, aod have n free
pass in the world of work. If the masses
knew their power, they could turn the
whole legislation of the country to their
owu advantage, and drive poverty. Tags

It they wouli learn wisdom in the National
Labor Conrntions and not sell their votes

Trade aud Commeice, cd Co-operation
could soon bo established tha would ae
cure the righta of Labor and put ?w end
to the concentration ol wealth in the hands
of the few.
Labor holds the ballot now, let it leaiP
how to ue it. Educated woman know

militia law passed during tho last session

President Grant himself bears his du
ties well, and wears his honors with manly
modesty. His mistakes are probably only
Belmont repeated. In appearance and
manner there i a marked improvement,
lie locks better and moves with more ease
as President, than he did formerly when
receiving an General and hero of the war;
the latter being of course the l:?ht in
which most visitors approached. It troub
led him. His "literal mindedness" of
intellect sufficiently accounts for such em
barrassment. As President, nearly every

business aspect, aod this Buits President

Ia dress, President Grant appears with
scrupulous neatness. His face, with all
its famous impassiveness, has a more alert
air than formerly. He receives visitors
sitting at a desk, and when they approach
him he turns in his chair io as to have
the light behind him and in your face,
into which lie looks while you are talking,
with a quiet steadiness that you must n7
tice while yet it does not specially embar
rass you. He bears what you have to say
directly bearing on your buinc-t?, asking

The feat of riding fifty miles on a vel
ocipede withig six hours, which was ac
complished in Boston a cnuplc of weeks
ago by Walter Brown, the noted oarsman,
was again performed by him on Friday
last at the Jersey H.y Velocipedrome.
The distance to be rl'i ien required no less
than seven hundred and thirty-one cir
cuits of the hall, there being fourteen cir
cuits and a fraction over to a mile. The
time occupied from the start to the close
was five hours and forty-six minutes. The
actual time in riding, however, was but
four hours and twenty minutes, within
three minutes of the time occupied in ri
ding the sr.me distance in Boston. At
the Jersey City Rink, however, he had to
ride the circuit )f the h.til one hundred
and fifty-eight more time? than at the
Boston Mink, so that he really did better
riding there than in B.sioii.
