Kearney's Key Notes.
Kearney's key notes are, the China
man, and the defalcations of men
who are rich and in prominent and
extensive business places, jnst as if
the reat portion of the country
were made up of Chinamen and rich
people, and just as if there were no
6lrort comings and defalcations among
people 'who are not rich.
As to the First, The Chinaman,
the hostility manifested toward him
on the Pacific coast is driving him
out of the country, and will break up
the treaty relations, in s great mea
sure, bet ween this country and China;
As a consequence the next genera
tion of Chinamen in their native land
will open their doors less frequently
for the admission of American traders
and missionaries. Whatever griev
ances the Chinamen may have im
posed on the people in California,
they were not experienced here in
the Atlantic and Muldle States.
As to the Second, The defalcations
of rich men, they are numerous, bui
not more numerous than the defalca
tions of people who are not rich.
The question of defalcations is not a
question of labor. Labor has noth
ing to do with it, more than that a
laboring man or a rich man may be
wronged by the defaulter, and the
wrong as oftn happens in the one
case as in tLe other. AVhile it is
true defaulting banks, manufacturing
establishments, railroads, oil com
panies, insurance companies, have in
many cases robbed the men of small
means of their pennies invested or
entrusted to- them, they have at the
same time robbed the men of means
of their dollars, just os men of means
and men of no means have been
cheated by individuals in whom they
fronted. is not a labor question ; it
vt a question, of morals, and the man
who is immoral, whether he be rich
or poor, will ofteiier be a defaulter or
delinquent than anything else, if cir
cumstances will permit, and if it bo
ossible to create circumstances he
will create them, just as one immoral
man will cheat another in every day
life transactions. The moral man,
whether rich or poor, will make his
obligations good, unless great mis
fortune overtakes him, which some
times is the case, but generally, he is
considerate ard does cot over-reach
himself. So that when the question
of defalcations is considered as it
should be conridererd, it will be ob
served that the questions of labor
and riches do not enter into it, ex
cepting so far as that defaulters often
make men of small and large means
both poor. Again, it may be ob
served that in the great majority of
cases, the rich people who default were
not always rich people, but they are
people who are supposed to be rich
through some enterprise or venture
in which others helped them to en
gage, and in which they were dis
honest and managed to cheat every
IkmIv but themselves. If to hang the
dishonest people to trees and posts
will bring about a better 6tate of
morals in the country, perhaps it
would be better to do some hanging
and that had letter le done by
act of Assembly; but that would
not make work plentier, neither
would it increase the wages of the
laboring class, for it in no way is a
question of labor. Indeed some of
the greatest pieces of roguery, which
enriched rxxir men, and made rich
men poor, and made plenty of work at
high wages, were swindles, and the only
people who were benefitted in a
money way were the men who did
the work, and the men who held the
offices, and the losers were the stock
holders, or the men who paid money
into the concern to build it up.
So far as reported, Kearney's key
rotes will not amount to anything,
for the reason that the Chinese ques
tion is about disposed of, and for the
reason that the question of defalca
tion or swindles as often benefits
labor, in getting it work, as that it
injuries it, and for the reason that
a the question of defalcation is not a
question of labor, but a moral ques
tion, and for the reason that be has
not struck the root of the evil ; the
root of the evil is the immorality of
society generally. Cut let Kearney
be heard.
Tee sub-committee of the Potter
Committtee have concluded to hear
the witnesses that Secretary Sher
man desires to bring before the com
mittee. The country will approve
of that, and if the Secretary fails to
make oat a strong case of intimida
tion, so an to justify, under the law,
the changing of the vote in Louisiana
rhe case of President Hayes w21 look j
lad enough. 1
Tr.g State Central Committee of
; the National party mat at Cresson
Springs last Thutsday. One of the
objection's that reformers made to
the Kepnbliean party was that the
ofilee-ho'deTS were assessed a certain
amount. A great deal of abu?e used
to be heaped on Republicans for col
lecting assessment a, and it vs ex
pected that vhen the refoiDV gentle
men of the Nationals came together
tny wotdd not even think of doing
vhat had been so much- condemned ;
bnt among the first things that they
did was to pass a resolution to lay
and coll set assessments, and no party
has ever been so sweeping in assess
ments as they, unless it be the Cath
olics. "Each member of the party
in the State is assessed 10 cents;
each candidate for Assembly, $10;
each candidate for Senator, $23 ;
each candidate for Congress, $100 ;
and of the State ticket, the Secre
tary of Internal Affairs is asked to
contribute $300, the Lieutenant Gov
ernor $500, and the Governor $1,000.
Samuel K. Mason, the candidate for
Governor, has already handed over
his check for $1,009, and promises
another similar contribution before
the canvass is ended." Reform !
Milton Spear, Chairman of the
Democratic State Central Committee,
has organized a side-show in Hunt
ingdon county that is managed by
Mr. C. North. Mr. North, it is said,
has so organized the county in the
interest of his brother-in-law, Mr.
Spear, that the Greenbackers are so
numerous that the Democracy have
concluded to join them, and elect
two members of the Legislature.
The Greenbackers do cot see their
second fiddle now, but they will 6ee it,
if the programme is carried out at
the next meeting of the Legislature,
when Mr. Spear, as a Democrat, will
demand t he vote of the Greenbackers
to elect him a United States Senator.
The Democratic party has never been
a greenback party, is not now, and
all the votes cast for it, under the
belief that it will help the greenback
cause, are thrown away. It is a blind,
like that which was set up in the
I Clay campaign, when the country was
told that Polk was as good a tariff
j man as Clay. The country saw the
j blind after Mr. Polk had the reigns
of government, but then it was too
hde.
No Democratic statesmen ever
brought forward a bill in Congress
j which had for its dosign the protec-
tion of the iron and coal interests of
I Pennsylvania. No Democratic states
man ever championed the protection
of American industry. No Demo
cratic statesman ever advocated the
building np of the manufacturing in
terests of the country by throwing
around them tlie fostering care of
tLe government On the contrary,
every reduction of the tariff on iron,
in all its varied manufactured shapes,
was brought about by the action of
the Democratic party, no matter
whether it was in a majority or mi
nority in Congress ; it voted as a
party fvr free trade free trade was
made its caucus policy, and free trade
is the theme of its organs and ora
tors. Harritburg Telegraph.
The vVorth American says : Russia
has eighty millions of people and
eleven thousand miles of railway,
while the United States has forty-five
millions of people and eighty-three
thousand miles of railway. But not
a single railroad can be found in this
republic like one in Russia, on which
it is said a regular train is only run
twice a week ! The difference is in
the spirit of the two nations. There
isn't a line of railway in Russia that
earns a profit, and most of them do
not pay expenses. The case is simi
lar in British India.
How strangely time turns the

It has been said, by a visitor to one

of the committee looked as if the

of a trial of Secretary Sherman.

Am iufidel mined Burleigh, last week
announced to- foe citizen of Capron,
IM., Where be had been pursuing the
Calling of barber, tbat be would at
stated time deliver a lecture,- the ad
luttisioft to which would be' $1.00, and
tbe proceed; of whioh should be used
to defray his funeral expea.ies-, aa be
intended to commit suiciJe at tbe end
of tbe lecture. A large audienoe as
sembled to bear bits, and to sea hioi,
at they believed, play a-j ke. He de
livered the lecture, such as an infidel
may deliver, discarding the doctrine of
the immortality of the soul, aud tbeu,
is per programme, took bis own life by
seodiDg a pistol ball through bis bead.
Tbe only new feature in Burleigh's
cane ia that be collected an audience to
witness bioi shoot himself. Most peo
ple o take" their own life do it pri
vately. There bave been suicides time
out of date, and there will be suicides
on to tbe end of time of people. There
bave always been lubMete, and there are
good many in this country, but if Bur
leigh's movement ia intended as a new
departure, and indicates that the or
thodox thing for infidels to do is to
commit suicide when tbeir worldly af
fairs do not prosper, tbe cumber of in
fidels will grow beautifully less-, for
they as class like to live as long as
they can. If to commit suicide is a part
of their doctrine, the most of them will
not be orthodox.
It is reported that a general strike
is to take place on the 15th of Au-
A Midnight Robbery.
Tbe Mecbantcsburg Independent-
Journal of tbe 24th inst, gires the full
particulars as follows:
Mr. Jacob Eckert, aged seveoty-six
years, and bis wife a few years young
er, teside in Silver Spring township on
their farm, near the Cumberland Val
ley railroad two miles west ot Mecban
icsburg. They, with Mrs. Hannah Fa
gan, a lady about tbe same age, were
tbe only occupants of the bouse.
On .uondav nirht. between 11 and
12 o'clock, Mr. Eckert was awaken-
ed by the bursting open of his front
door. Jumping trom bed and looking
out of his room he saw in the dim light
six men disguised with veils on tbeir
faces, three on the stairs, one in tbe
ball, and two in tbe open doorway.
As soon an be realised tbe situation ha
tried to run for bis gun, which, was iu
an adjoining room, before he got three
steps he was seized by a powerful man,
who thrust a revolver into his face,
when a secoud one came up, and the
two threw bun upon the bed, bound bis
bands and feet with leather thong,
apparently cut from boot legs, making
biu. fast to the bed post. They then
proceeded to tie Mr. Fagan, threaten
ing to kill any one who made any noise.
Tbe three robbers inside striking a
light, ordered Mrs Eckert to ga with
tbeci while they searched the house;
one on each side of ber, holding a re
volver at her bead, and tbe other in
front held a large knife across ber
throat. In this style they escorted her
down stairs making all kinds of threats
if she attempted to give au alarm.
They demanded to know where Mr.
Eckert kept bis money. She then told
them of some money in the bureau
drawer in tbe front room down stairs,
which they proceeded to take. it
amounted to $235 00. Tbey then
took ber up stairs, tied ber bands and
threw her on the floor.
They now commenced operations up
stairs, aud fouud in a valise $80 and a
sdver watch belonging to John Eckert
a sou of Jacob Eokert. They tore np
all the beds and carpets ransacked
drawers and chests, pulled np boards
in tbe floor, scattered papers in all
directions, and made general havo
throughout tbe house. They, removed
the clock from its place, took off tbe
back, hoping to find money concealed
there. Tbe clock stopped at 20 min
utes to 12 o'clock, being about the
time of leaving. Their search was so
thorough that they did not even neglect
tbe cellar, aud devoured the mes found
there.
When the robbers had gone, Mrs.
Fagan, by untying the knots with ber
teeth, worked ber bauds loose and
crawled over to another room where
Mrs. Eckert lay, and released her.
Tbe women at this time screamed for
kelp, and were beard by their nearest
neighbor, Mr. Benjamin Albright,
whose residence is about an eight of a
mile distant. Mr. A. came to the
rescue, aroused the neigbors, and sent
fcr Mr. Eckert's sons, one of whom re
sides in New Kingston and another in
Monroe, both of whom made their ap
pearance at their father's house at an
early hour in the morning.
After a thorough examination of the
premises no traces tending to the
identification of tbe robbers were found.
Mr. and Mrs. Eckert are feeble as well
iijt - i.t i
a oia, naviug lately recovered irom a
serious illness; tbe latter is nearly
blind, and Mrs Fagan is quite deaf.
Considering the treatment they re
ceived, tbey have pretty clear ideas of
tbe transaction. Tbey all were a good
deal bruised, and now are suffering
considerably. Tbey say the disguise
of tbe robbers was generally complete.
One was a tall, stout man, and another
was a short, stout man with a black
mustache. Messrs. Joseph Eckert and
John Eckert called at our offioe at
8 o'clock on Tuesday morning aud fur
nished us with tbe foregoing particulars.
Tbey showed us the straps with which
tbe tyitig was done.
Tuia affair is one of the boldest known
in this vicinity or elsewhere. The
community is greatly incensed, and ef
forts are making to discover the ruf
fians. Where such a formidable and
so well organized a party conld bave
come from is a mystery. Tbat it was
a' predatory band of tramps is most
probable. Although it is known
tbat Mr. Eckert bad lately received
money for bis crops, he is as likely to
have been selected at random as by
design.
