SENTINEL k REPUBLICAN : SHFFMIfTOWN. Wedaesdajr, December 1, 1873. BrFinfTEirr ' tMrui m rmramdi. il The Codfish Aristocracy of Ene - - - land Denounca the Queen. The reigning families of Europe and tie old world value themselves more un account of their blood their aiices-j try than on account of their power a rulers. Their whole aristocracy pro Cesses to saud on that basis. Tbej profce tit hate within theuisIves tbe virtue of iuin,and few of hi vicea. Virh-si stopping to examine their preteiiaiB as to the virtue! aod vicea, it r not eat of place to note the fact (bat birt a lew dart ago the tbe (Jueen of England, ont of respect to a most faithful servant of ber home bold, attended the ftrneret of tbe father of the man iu ber immediate aervice. The nun who died wit a Scotch farmer of quite limited means, but of good blo'd, and, a a conoueuce, when his sin became attached te the household of the Queen tbe boy manifested bis blood and served the head of (he nation with tbe enr(ey at:d fiJelMv that ia a stranger to meaner blood. It was bnt natural that Victoria should cotiee tbe superiority of tbe Scotch farmer boy ever many of her other attendants, and happeuiug to bo near the residence of tbe Scotch father when be died, fhe drove over to atteud the funeral, and walked in the procession near the mourners to the grave, and aaw the old in .in laid away in tUe tomb. And now the whole codfish aristoc racy nf the realm are ont in a clamor against the Queen, as they say, for low ering her dignity by attending the fu neral of a poor Scotch farmer. These mean blooded people know nothing bnt to stand behin J counters ia the larger town and cities and measure off goods and shove them across tbe counters to fhe pnt chasers, and strut about town. Their highest gjal in life is to lead the life of a middleman. They are an en vious, niggardly set, and if tbey lived in days of stronger government tbey would belong to (be meanest clasp of serfs, from which the most of them have sprang Tl.ey are tbe people who are constantly howling at RoYALTV fur ita dignity and stiff manners, and then a hen Koyalty doffs every sem blance of distinction in tune or man ner, they display their codGah origin by denouncing it for not preserving the badge of distinction. They are the seople whom Napoleon called the mean storekeeper, a stench in tbe nostrils of decently-toned men and women ; they are workris of sediticn, detected alike by decern Democrat, Republican, aud Mod arcbist. Their n:eau clatucr against the Queen has awakened tbe just indig-1 natiou of the decent people of the world. j Beecher on Trial. A committee of tongiegatiuual min isters are examiuing into the ease of Kov. Henry Ward 15eecher. lie Las Lad trial enough for a baker's dozen of people. Ilia congregation tried bim, tho court tried bim, and now the preachers of the Congregational Church have bim on trial. .Many people try him about every week, and cenvict him evry time. He seems to be a stand ing subject fur trial. . He says that be can stand the test of the light of the Judgment day.1' ' If he can, it will te more than a great many of Lis accusers can do. It would ba a relief if tbey would rjnit trying him, bnt instead of there being an abituineut of tbe trial it seems to be enlarging itself. For example, the Congregational Church propose to test the correctness of the ; point that Plymouth Church made when it put Mrs. Emma Moulton out of the fold. Truly there is a right and a wrong in this tra.?, snd it ;ce:ns a little strange that they caanot get settled on it. ' The levil as big as a ram must Lave got among them somewhere," and be is sure of somebody for false swear ing. War Claims of the South. The .Yuri.b-lnencan says : "South ern war claims for compensation for the nse of lauds occupied by tbe I'tiion armies during the war are so numerous at Washington that the Treasury Bu reau devoted to them is clogged with the vest array, "badly prepare.! aud so poorly supported that they must geoer- allr fail " V ari iiirthiipd to ilonlit . ., ., '. , whether any considerable portion of ; th nlaittt mftrit fnnatiltntinii at all . ... , .u- u and certainly unless the business can be; arrested somewhere the drain upon tbe public revenues must be ruinous.

We regret to see so able rod intelli gent a journal the Pittsbavg Gat rile wasting apace and time ia editorial ar ticles advocating the noiainatio and election of President Grant for s tbiid term. Surely" tbe Liberal and Demo- 1 er,tic orf D L,Te S'Te" ,be con,,,ry quite enough of tbia issue, and the tide of public aeutiment on tbe subject was ! sufficient! indicated bv tbe elections of 1874 and tbe reactionary majority in : Congress. The loss of tweut j -even States in one campaign i rather a high price to pay for such a piece of amuse ment as that, and now that we have undone much of the mischief it is a lit tie provoking to Lave the thing come up again in this way. Tbe Gazette of course bas a right to its opinion, but the voice of Pennsylvania bas been pro nounced so aweepingiy in her State Conventions against a third term, that this sort of effort at distraction comes with au ill grace at a time ' wbec we need ail onr forces to prepare to fight the enemy in Congress and in tbe next ensuing State election. TIij discas siou seems to ns about as useful as a last year's faehion plate. As for at tempting to carry Pennsylvania for it, we might about as well whistle jigs to a milestone and expect it to dauce. .Yorih American. Tub Indianapolis Journal regards it but fair that the ex-Confederates should control the next House, since they are a majority of the Democratic majority. liatiieb them, aod there would not be much left of the Demo cratic party, either in or out of Con gress. It would be like catting off the head and tail of a tadpole, and expect ing the small remainder to go into the ftog business on its own account. ".

A Farmer's Wife Murdered for Money A Blood Stained Home In lehlsh County. From tbe Alleutown Chronicle, Nov. 20. . Probably no crime committed in Le high connty ever created so great an excitement and such .nuivcrsal aorrow, indignation and regret as the murder of Mrs. Joseph Schneek, sixty-two years old, the wife ot a wealthy farmer, re siding near Hollenbacb's mill, in Low bill township, about two aod a half miles from Schnecksville. It sppeara that the husband left . his borne abont 11 o'clock Friday corning to attend the sale of property belonging t tbe estate of bis brother, John Schneek, at Schnecksville, and that he arrived borne again at or a little after dark. He got out of his wagon, and, approashing tbe bouse, called his wife by nsme, but, receiving no response, be went to the barn and there hid bis pocket-book, containing a large amount of money, in some straw. Next he went back to tbe house and opened the kiteben door, groped . Lis way carefully iuside and came upon something lying on tbe floor, i over which be stumbled. Reaching down he eanght hold of a cold hand, and, his fears overcoming bim, Le ran out of the bouse to the borne of his neighbor, Peter Schwick. Scbmick collected a company of neighbors, and the party proceeded with lights to Mr. Scbneck's home. When the light from a lantern was thrown into the kitchen it revealed a scene of blood most hor rible to heboid. On tbe floor lay the body of Mrs. Schneek, near a churn, at which, from tbe condition of its con tents, it is supposed she bad been at work when the murderer first struck ber ; tbe ghastly face was upturned, the room was sprinkled with blood nearly to the walls, and blood lay in thick poola near the brid, from wbicb it is thonght the murderer struck ber several times after she was first knocked down. While some of the men exam ined the body others went into an ad joining room, where tbey found a desk broken open, likewise tbe drawers, and the contents scattered promiscuously abent. Mr. Scbceck could not tell posi tively whether or but any booty had been obtained by the murderer, that having been undoubtedly the object in part. It is probable that Mrs. Schneek had from three to five dollars in money stowed away in a coffee-pot she used as a receptacle for tbe ready money she n.ight bave occasion to nse iu ber bouse bold management, and tbat was found to be empty last night. . lie bad from four hundred to five hundred dollars in si I vet bid away in the barn, lot of this bis wife was not aware and the mar. derer did not get it.. , No neighbors were found this o-ornin? wboceuld tes- tify to having seen anybody gtr into Schneck's bouse yesteiday afternoon, and, tbus far the affair ties in feystery as to its perpetrator. Bat it eaost bave bee fjoasaitted before dark, aa tbe body was cold, and tbe conditio of the blood was sack as to indicate that it bad lain for some time when Mr Schneek returned front tbe vendae, be fixing tbe time of his getting borne at or a boot dusk. . On Saturday morning there was a large gathering of people at the boose, and a thorough search of tbe premises was made. ' In looking under a porch at the side of tbe bouse. Dr. Josiab Kern, of Siegersville, found an axe, and tbe condition of toe axe proved that it bad done some bloody work. Tbe blade bad been washed perfectly clean, but the bandlo was smeared thickly with blood ttnt had apparently been only a few boors dry ing. Tbia waa the only evidence of the mnrder nutiride tbe house. A reward of $1,000 bas been offered by Mr. Scbntcb for tbe arrest of tbe mnrdeier. Not about a Woman, bat Because be Joined the Grangers.
