COMMUNICATION.
rfior Sentinel and Republican D-ar Sir,
I propose that every candidate for the Leg
islature should be required before the nom
ination to give a pledge to the people, that
is, to the tax-pay voters that if he
be chosen and elected to the House of the
people's representatives, that he will ue his
best abilities to have a law passed to so
amend the Constitution of Pennsylvania as
to reduce the number of members t 100,
and the Senate to 33, as it used to be. Why
fchall the people be Used to keep up a stand
ing army of 251 members, at $10 per d.iy,
when one-half the number can make all the
laws required, and at one-half the per diem
allowance. In round numbers the State
debt is about twenty million dollars. Should
we not learn economy t It is never too late
to do good. I wish this subject to be in
troduced into the fall campaign by both
parties.
Two hundred and fifty repreaentatives at
$10 per day each, makes $2,500.00 per day.
This amount for 100 days or 120 days, and
tom: sessions exceed this. It consume
money pretty fast. Some citizens think
they are not taxed, since the State tax has
been taken off real estate, but in this they
are mistaken, for the tax is put on corpora
tions. Well, let us see how this works.
The State taxes the corporations, and Ibe
corporations tax the people. For instance,
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company add a
rate on freight over and above what they
would otherwise charge, so as to cover this
Thn. h farmer might get two or
three cents per brshel more for his wheat if
there were no State taxonsaia corpo. ...
and so with everything they carry, and even
on passengers. ISow let us learn economy,
and dispense with this army of members in
the Legislature, aud amend the Constitution
to that erect.
Respectfully submitted by

j While bringing the cows from pasture, a
few evenings ago, a copperhead snake struck
its fangs into the leg of a little daughter
of Benjamin Long, of Susquehanna town
ship. The limb and body of the child were
greatly awolen, and for a while the life of
the child was considered aa good as gone,
The latest report, however, says that there
is hope of a speedy recovery .7
Garfield is a consistent man. When be
was in the field, as a brave soldier, he gave
his moral influence in favor of the party
that he fought for, namely, the free party of
the North. He did not shoot at rebels and
then turn and talk in favor of the Demo
cratic party, that was continually declaring
that the shooting, the war of the North
against Southern rebellion was a failure
He never Toted in favor of the party that
was clamoring against the efforts of the free
citizeu soldiers of the North to put down
rebellion.
One man calls Dr. Tanner an idiot; an
other says he thirsts for fame; another
says he fasts in the interest of science ; an'
ether says he purposes lecturing on the
health there is la fasting; another says that
he will demonstrate to the world by prac
tice, that the habit of stuffing pound after
pound daily into the human stomach is the
fruitful source of disease, and a violation of
God's law ; another insists that he gets food ;
another says that he wants to make money ;
another says, hang science if such a fast is
necessary.
A son of David Stouffer, residing in Fer
managh township, was bitten by a snake on
Friday evening. The child is five years of
age, and was out in the oats field, near
where the reaper was at work. He began to
cry, and when asked tor the reason, com
plained of a sting on the leg above the an
kle joiut. In the night the child took sica.
On Saturday morning Dr. Banks was called.
The limb was swollen. The swelling was
extending to the body. Snake poison rem
edies were administered, aud the child has
been getting better, and will by and by fully
recover from what was a bite by a snake.
It is said that the moon has a great effect
on vegetation and animal life, and observing
men declare that about full moon time, more
domestic troubles and fights take place than
at any other time. Suicides are more nu
merous about that time, and discontent man
ifests itself to a greater degree about the
time of the full moon. So, at least, it ia
said. Therefore it is recommended to such
people who have hasty niiuds and bad
tongues, that tbey watch the changes of the
moon, so that thev are not led into conduct
that is of great injury to their own good
name. Bad conduct may be ot great of
fence to the people against whom it is de
livered, but the people who disbehave them
selves are the onea who suffer most. They
lose their standing as the right quality of
people. So, if you are prompted to break
out bad, consider the moon's phase and gov
ern yourself.
fpeople who are acquainted with the pike
between this town and Mexico, have a dis
tinct recollection of a hili on this side of
the Kyle farm buildings. Last Sabbah
afternoon, as the funeral procession of Mr.
Moses Kyle was moving up the hill on its
way to Union Cemetery, a team near the
top of the hill stopped, and then backed.
The teams being close together, of course
the backing of one team would disorder all
of that part of the line of procession that
was in close order. For a while great dis
order prevailed. The buggy of James
Adams, of Walker township, was upset, and
Mr. and Mrs. Adams thrown out and the
buggy broken. The buggy of John Stoner,
of Fermanagh township, was upset aud the
occupants thrown out, aud the buggy bro
ken. The carriage of Tobias Auker,of this
town, was run into, but without serious re
sult. So it waa with a number of others.

In a pleasant grove, about one mile from
ibe village of Richfield, this connty, con
vened on the morning of the l'th inst., a
large gathering of people, under the au
spices of the Union Sabbath-school of that
place; for the purpose of holding a celebra
tion, and upon which occasion Mr. S. V.
Mills, of the vicinity, waa called Upon to
speak, when he arose, and made, to the very
anxious and attentive assemblage, the fol
lowing lively and glossy address, and which
Is here given, at the request of the officials
of the school :
Friends of the Sabbath-School f Permit me
to here acknowledge that I, but a few days
ago, was more than ordinarily surprised on
account of your written request, that I
should meet you here, upon this more than
common occasion, for the purpose of making
you a public address, and 1 Can justly as
sure jou, that were it not repugnant to me,
or rather to my feelings, to have it said of
me, that be ia a recreant to the performance
of moral duty, and one that lacks inspira
tion in a cause so all-important as is this
one, for which you have here ao generally
and generously asaenib'ed as a Sabbath
school onrauixation and a community, I
certainly would have declined your kind in
vitation to me, as a comparative stranger in
your midst, which it baa been my honor to
receive, and your preference and pleasure to
give me.
Knowing, ladiea and gentlemen, that
brevity of speech bis become almost the
universal rule upon occasions of this kind,
and that their more especial object is that of
recreation for the young in the capacity of
outdoor freedom, I shall forbear indulgence,
in offering here in my weak capacity, as a
practical Sabbath-school advocate, counsel
to the young, the able, and more appropri
ate admonitions, than I in that direction
would have capacity to giv, by your able
ministers he.-e. already afforded, have in
mv estimation, been all sufficient. I would
simply conform to the duty, to here public
ly allege and say the proprietors of this
work, that too little esteem, upon the part
of the outside world, by those who are not
co-operatives in this great cause, is enter
tained for the institution of the Sabbath-
school. Too little credit indeed is given,
as it were, by every one to those who con
stitute the moral gnides and moral instruc
tors of the youthful minds, beneath the tri
umphant banner of the Sabbath-school.
Would we, ss parents, desire the moral
training of the child t would we have its
nercentibilities eilded with the light of
moral truth, as splendid indeed aa is tha
glittering dew-drop of merning upon the
opening flower; would we hope for the
moral elevation of our loved ones, and the
dissemination of the light of Christianity
throughout the world, we must unite in
moral action, and in the determination to
zealously prosecute the great work to which
it has been my pleasure, as well as domes
tic profit, also to here allude.
Parents counsel yourselves to assume not
the ability to elevate your representatives,
your children, to a high pinnacle of literary
and scientific attainment, forgetful of the
fact, that in the absence, upon their part, of
a love of virtue, and the making of a rep
utation for moral integrity, but little lustre
can they add to their mental achievements,
or honor to those who sought to be their
parental benefactors. Forget not the moral
excellence of the Sabbath-school, and that
it may be ttrnied ever appropriately, as an
indispensable auxiliary to the vital cause of
voutbful improvement, and the nation's
universal religious enlightenment As pa
rents, we are caused, from the result of ob
servation and public readings, to know that
too many are the delusions with which the
rising generation is surrounded, nni too
many the devices, infamous in character,
held out in life, in the enchantment of
youthful prostration, and in order for the
serious consummation of youthful ensnare
ment, and that the exercise of the most
careful igilance, upon the part of one and
all, is the only requisite adequate to meet
the task of their preservation from the im
pending doom of ignominy, and life's many
and unwelcome inglorious disappointments.
Who, that is worthy the name of a loving
parent, can carelessly omit to indulge in do
mestic teachings conducive to the moral
welfare and discipline of the family circle f
Who, that is a true husband and father, can
exercise a disposition of indifference per
taining to the intellectual and religious wel
fare of those who, to him, should be the
dearest in life, the foremost, and that con
stitute the hope and pleasure of his domes
tic fireside.
1 would urge that we as intelligent people.
in realization of our mental abilities, and
superior calling in life, reject every element
dttrimental to our every moral success, and
militate against the many insinuations utter
ed upon the part of philosophical pecula
tors throughout the land, whose only pur
pose foreshadows that of enmity to Chris
tianity, and the demoralization of society,
Church and State. Let us ever strive to
show, as far as it is possible upon our part
to do, to our children, by our own good ex
amples, the true walks of life, impress upon
their minds and ours the fact that we as in
dividuals, society and a nation, are fast
tending to responsible ends. Let us feel
bumble in the fact, that ours is a religious
nationality, and that beneath the banner of
religious freedom, has it sprung from an in
fant government to that of a world's famed
and appreciated empire of religious liberty ;
that it is ours, as it was bequeathed to us,
under the influences of a benign Provi
dence, by our ancestry to perpetuate and
enjoy, as onrs, from the cause of a common
demoralization, to impair and sadly destroy
the history of nations, lo us as a people,
have afforded satisfactory and impressive
proofs of sin, the many Forums that have
silenced, and from w hose spacious halls no
more the voice of the Champion Orator is
beard, and the many monuments of archi
tectural beauty, that throughout the world
are now crumbling to the dust, afford to as,
as it pertains to our every moral duty here,
admonitions solemn in character, and the
significance and import of which we as a
people, cannot in the light of truth, con
sistently evade. As it regards the institu
tion of the Sabbatb-school, let us ever look
upon it as the key to the living church, and
as being a pillar upon which rests not only
that sacred Institution, but aa well this our
great national and religions Temple of the
free, and let ns hope that ere long we may
see the ushering in of the day when the
glad tidings of the Sabbath-school shall be
heard throughout the land, when for it, by
an exhulted people throughout this our
glorious national domain, the eans of
moral victory shall be proclaimed, and let
hope, as a Sabbath-school element, aa we
depart from this periodical pleasant scene,
that the religions promise, which now so
brilhsntly and prospectively illuminates our
social and national sky, is but the precur
sor of promise that our country's noble en
sicn mav continue to float in the future as
it has done in the past, in the breeze of
Heaven, from our great national metropolis,
bearing ever npon its brilliant folds the
world's appreciated American national mot
to, never to be obliterated i "Virtue, Lib
erty, and Independence."

FOR RESTORING GRAY HAIR TO ITS
NATURAL VITALITY AND COLOR.
Ir is a most agreeable dressing, which
is at once harmless and effectual, for
preserving tlia hair. It restores, with
the gloss and freshness of youth, faded or
gray, light, and red hair, to a rich brown,
or deep black, as may be desired. By Its
use thin hair is thickened, and baldness
r.fien though not always cured. It
tbeeks failing of the hair immediately,
and "causes a new growth In all cases
w lire the glands art not decayed ; while
lo brushy, weak, or otherwise diseased
Ii.iir, it imparts vitality and strength,
aud renders it pliable.
The Vicon cleanses the scalp, cures
and prevents the formation of dandruff;
and, by its cooling, stimulating, and
toothing properties, it heals most if not
all of the humors and disease's peculiar
to the scalp, keeping it cool, clean, and
soft, under which conditions diseases of
the scalp and hair are impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladiea' Hair,
The Vir.on is incomparable. It is color-1-ss,
contains neither oil nor dye, and
will not soil white cambric. It imparts
an agreeable and lasting perfume, and
.is an article for the toilet It is economi
col and unsurpassed in its excellence.
