The LEaisLATCTiE passed a concur-
rant resolution that after the 10th
day of September the extra session
of the Legislature should receive no
jay. The Governor vetoed the lull,
or resolution, on the ground that
such a bill cannot have the force of
law, till the law of 1874, which gives
$10 per day, is repealed. Which, if
correct, there can be no danger of
him vetoing a bill appropriating
money for the extra session $3,000
a day $10 a day for each member.
The members of the Legislative cir
cus will all be happy now, since, the
Governor has thus delivered himself.
Text book education is a good
thing, but it is not everything. It
will not make a man moral or in
dnstrioua. and to make a prosperous
state people must be both moral and
industrious. It is desirable that
the colored people of the South be
educated in the fundamental text
books to an extent that will not ren
der taxation in that direction burden
some, but it 6eems like going many
degrees too far to advocate a distrib
ution of the surplus tariff fund among
the states bo as to better educate the
colored people of the south. The
colored man is secure in his rights
and if left alone will take care of
himself. No false issue shonld be
raised in the country over his shoul
der. The reported failure of the peanut
crop induces the North American to
write, that, the matter is one of deep
er significance than would appear on
the surface. In the olden days,
when the national nut was solely a
solace during the intermission of
theatres and variety shows, such- a
failure would have been sufficiently
serious: but these progressive days,
when the protean peanut furnishes
tho best imported olive oil, in Vene
tian "lass bottles ; when it enters
hirgely into tho composition of choc
olatcand perhaps a few hundred
other things, including oleomarga
rine, tue disaster in the lnnma
crops will be a serious blow to the
counterfeiters of domestic supplies.
The great trouble is that something
infinitely worse than the innocent
peanut may drift into use.
Th eke is not much said these days
about the trade djllar, but the peo
ple keep up a great deal of thinking
on the subject which they always do
when the rights of the pocket book
is invaded. The people look upon it
as a contemptible piece of business
that Congress should pass two coin
acts. The one legalizing a certain
coin as a dollar ; the other allowing
the more valuable coin to float about
at its own real value, to bo subject
to the sharp practice of the business
of the country to make money out of
by its fluctuation. Of course, cer
tain interests will ask Congress not
to make the trade dollar a legal ten
der, or redeem it with a legal tender
silver dollar. All interests that are
in the traSie of coin fluctuation will
so ask. But the mass of the people,
npon whose confidence and good will
the bt-ibility of goverumr-nt rests,
will ask for a one v.ilue silver dollar
coin.
Hexseu when he was here during
the Pattison campaign, was great in
a talk about what was paid for soap,
teeth brushes, etc. Ho promised
great reform. The result of the
election, is, that the most demoraliz
ing legislature that the State has bad
is still in session. It had a demor
alizing and pernicious influence be
cause the public mind is made aware
of the fact that the law making pow
er of the Commonwealth will delib
erately sit day after day, at tho ex
pense of $3,000 per day, for no oth
er purpose than to draw pay, and
struggle for the spoils of legislative
district s. WelL Hensel will be around
by and by with a speech. Of course,
he will blush over the demoralizing
aspect of his own party, and one of
the points upon which he will at
tempt to justify the extra session and
all its great expense, is that the con
stitution requires the Legislature to
pass an apportionment law. Anoth
er point will le that the present ex
tra session has not cost as much as
some of the past regular sessions of
the Republicans, which, if true, does
not relieve him in the least for the
failure to make good the reforms
that he promised.
The New York Herald writes of
the secret divorce lawyer as follows :
That wretched class of lawyers, or
demi-semi-lawyers, who advertise
that they will, for a consideration,
procure divorces without publicity
ought to be reduced to pulp and
thrown on to the heap of compost
If divorces must be had there should
be nothing secret about t he means
by which they are to be obtained. It
has lately transpired that a husband
carefully sought the services of one
of these vultures, and in due time,
and after several payments of cash,
received a document separating him
from his wife on the ground on which
the Scriptures allow a divorce. He
had fallen in love with another wo
man, and concocted this diabolism to
accomplish his purpose. It is bad
enough to marry hastily, and it
must bo purgatorial discipline for a
man and wife to live together when
respect and love have ceased, but
such a tiling as a divorce ought not
to be sought for behind a fence, and
the man of legal lore who lives be
hind the fence, among the bats and
'vampires and reptiles, coining
drachmas out of domestic I edlamism,
may well pass for the missing link
between the human being and the
brute ; but it is sheer flattery to call
him a man. Either bear your troub
les with a silent heart or else settle
them in the light of day.
The New York Independent after
reviewing the action of Huntingdon
Presbytery, in tho Rev. White case
closes its remarks as follows :
There are some special features of
this case in the Huntingdon Presby
tery which invito further berious
comment Leaving out the injus
tice of the act of condemning a man
for holding to the New School the
ology, and the gigantic impudence of
this little interior Allechenian pres
bytery in assuming to condemn the
Reunion, the Auburn Declaration,
and not the worse half of the Pres
byterian Church, there are further
questions of policy. Mr. White has
for 25 vears ministered with distin
guished faithfulness and success to a
large lull church in Milroy. He has
the full confidence of its people in
his judiciousness and Christian char
acter. The Presbytery give hun their
warmest Cliristian commendation.
He is a man of wisdom and sweet
spirit and devoted piety, almost pie
tist ic, whom they have always put on
committees when there was a breach
to be healed. The church in Milroy
is now broken up and lost to the
body. Presbyterianism is destroyed
there. The people forsake it and go
into an independent organization.
The Lutheran minister there tells
his people that if Mr. White is a her
etic he is one too ; and, if they want
they may have a Lutheran heresy
trial. .Not only docs the Presbyte
rian Church (none too rich in minis
ters) lose thns two ministers whom
it heartily indorses for Christian
character and piety, and one church,
but young men looking toward the
ministry are repelled at the very door.
They are told that ability, unblem
ished character, piety and intelligent
faith are not enough ; they must nev
er grow beyond the teachings of
I'nneeton and Allegheny. Of course
young men are kept out of the Pres
byterian ministry by this sort of
thing; and thoy will continue to be
kept out tholuore's the pity.

A despatch dated at New York Sep
tember 1, explains itself as follows :
The wife of W. F. Matthias died in
U HliamsDurg yesterday and the at
tending physicians was instantly set
npon by the husband and thrashed.
A man who was attracted by the noise
rushed in. He says: "1 found Dr.
IJearJsley on the floor and Mr. MaUh-
ias at him. Mrs. Matthias lay back,
dead, in her chair. I had seen her
alive a few minutes before nl "be bad
been aoout the bouse during the day.
Mr. Matthias was nearly insane. I fin
ally succeeded in pulling him off and
L'r Heardsley made his escape.
lr. Beardslcj asked Coroner Keller
to-day lor an autopsy on the body of
Mrs. Matthias, lie deposed that he
bad been charged with her murder by
Mr. Matthias and bad been outrageous
ly assaulted. He says that when be
was summoned he found Mrs. Matthias
bolstered op in a chair, apparently
suffering freui bepta'i. ,4She was
breathing rapidly and with appareot
difficulty, and her pulse was 13.") per
minute Instant stimulation of some
sort was necessary and 1 gave the safe-
est and most effective remedy in such
cases, aromatic ppints of ammonia.
1 gave her first a halfspoonful and soon
afterward, as the didn't get relief, 1
gave bcr 30 drops more. She had
swallowed a part of it when she fell
back dead in uiv arms. 1 recog
nized at once that there had been heart
trouble and that the medicine which I
had given bad not effected the result.
'Did 1 call you here to murder my
wife Mr. Matthias said, and be sprang
npon me and assulted me fiercely in
the face and npon the head. It was
wholly unexpeoted and I mado no de
fense. Then he threw me to the floor,
kicked me and fairly skinned my back.
He was a stout German and I am con

Communication from Main Street.
Mil flixtows, Pa., Sept. 19th, 1X83
The annual re-union crowd did not grace
fully surge, and court, crunch peanuts,
drink, fight, and reel under tho intoxica
tion of patriotic recollection around Court
Manse square and along Main Street this
September, and I am glad of it. Not that
I am tired of having the crowd come to
this place, but it gave me a chance to get
away for a day, from the smoke, and smell
of the fire torment. The tiro fiend has
kept this town tilled with his sulphurious
smoke almost for the period of a dozen
years. For a year after the lire of 1870
there was a sickening smell in the town.
The fire of the Tannery building kept up
the unpleasant odor. The tire of 1873 in
creased the devilish smell. The tire on the
McClellan and Wright lots did not allow
the odor to abate. The Odd Fellow Hall
lire kept up the familiar smell. The tire in
the K. E. Parker building increased the
dose, and now the late Are has again doub
led the dose and tho town stinks worse
than ever. Why! Oh, Why! have not
to these odors been added the smell ol the
burning body of some one of the demons
that fiotu time to time has tired the town.
Perhaps you will say, that Is a cannibalistic
sentiment. Say what you please, 1 know
that the best people in Milltiulown are hu
miliated by the fieiiient incendiary fires
not so much by the loss as by the deviltry
in their midst until, if they do not feel,
like eating the tire bugs, they could see
them cremated in the fires of their own
creation, for then, justice which seems to
be creeping so slowly along in pursuit of
the fiends would be speedily meeted out to
the demons. But be not dismayed, jus
ticc is certain to overtake the guilty ones,
sooner or later. Yes I was tired of all this
smoke, all this unpleasant kind of thinking,
that the sight, and smell; of the tires awak
en, and that made me glad of the chance to
get away to
McAlistebvilli.
When was McAlisterville "laid out J"
Ask the McAlisters. They, perbapa will
say that it was when the first HcAlister in
in the valley traded flint lock guns, rum,
blankets, and gew gaws to the Indian! for
skins of wild animals. It was, perhaps,
when the G raj bills settled at Uichticld, and
when there was a fort near Kiclifield for
the protection of the settlers. The town
was laid out in the old frontier, or Indian
style or plan, with one long street. Ask
historian H. L. McAIister whether that long
street was au Indian path in the days when
hu ancestors tirat located tiiurc Tuo
Squire ia a big man now, but an hundred
years hence, with all his accumulated re
cords in print, he will be a bigger man still.
In his halcyon youthful days McAlisterville
waa che frequent resorting place for great
gatherings. The militia corn stalk musleri
frequently took place there. Batalion da;
drew great crowds of people. In one sense
they were re-union days, not, to be sure,
re-union days of men that bad passed
through the battle's strife, excepting here
and there a hero or 1812 or 177G that might
yet then be among the living, but they were
ro union days for training in anticipation
of impending foreign troubles such as their
fathers had passed through. ''Batalion
days" were passing away about the time I
began to look about me. The only militia
muster I ever witnessed was at JlcAlister
ville. It waa the first drive that I recollect
"out the valley." In the wagon roing out,
was Captain McClullan, then a boy, in sol
dier uniform. In passing David Banks,
who, with other people, was making road
beyond bis house, McClellan proposed three
cheers for Mr, Banks. EveryDody on the
wagon shouted. I do not know whether
Banks was au old soldier. McClellan knows.
On that day batalion was formed and roan
vuvercd on the farm ol Montgomery Jami
son. Dr. Fisher was one of the young
bloods of the town and rode a black horse,
perhaps be can recall the year. There was
a cannon house a short distance beyond the
town in which a cannon, of 1812 was kept.
The bora looked at it with great respect
every time they passed it. It was one of
the kind that did not need to be hauled on
a spring wagou to keep it from being jostled
to pieces on a rough road. It waa no pop
gun. It was said that the fathers had used
it against the British, in 1812. With along
line of local historical association, aud re
collection, beginning with the Indians, and
crowning with the S. O. School, as evi
dence of all tho great struggles through
which the American people have passed
McAlisterville waa a proper place to hold
Tub Kt-iMoj.
On tho 2l'th day of September, 18S5,
which was last Thursday. The day was a
bean til ul one, and tho turn cnt of people
was largo beyond expectation. Men "0
years of ago have not seen so many people
in the place at one time. People from all
parts of tho county were there, and as to I
sex they were nearly equally divided. The
amount 01 conning aone on me street was
never equaled in the east end of the coun
ty. The sweetest looks comes from the
people tf tho lower end. Tho Scotch-Irish
of Tuscarora, as they may be seen at the
annual gathering on Pannebakcrs Island,
and at Port Koyal Fair, court well by eye and
gesture, but the Pennsylvania Dutch of iho
lower end exceed them in expressing tho
gentler feeling of the heart through eyes
and gesture. There was a great deal of
drinking, and a great deal of lighting dono
by visiting bloods. The Post from this
tow n numbered 60 men, and they exhibited
their piece of artillery to the great satisfac
tion ol hundreds of men and women who
had never seen or heard the roar ot a can
non. J uJge Watts, however, had his din-ni-r
disturbed by the wicked discharge of
the cannon, when it broke tour panes ol
glass in a w indow ol his house. Members
of the Oriental Post, and members of the
Post in Miflliu county, and soldiers from all
the adjoining counties were present, and
there was more music in the place than bad
ever before assembled at one point in Juiii- j
ata. Jt was stunning. The veterans could
not march steadily for its sweet mingling
souuds. The music of six brasa bands till- i
ed all the valley with sweet sounds. A
baud from Middlebiirg, Snyder county, was
present. The Millerstowu, Perry county,
band was there. The Fremont, Snyder
county, band joined in the happy time. The
Kictihcld band performed its pirt as if it
had been there before. The i'ort Koyal
hand discoursed its music in a way that it
has tew equal;, and the McAlisterville hand
was equal to the courtesies that were re
quired ot it as musical host. The business
meeting of the veterans in the morning was
held lu the Academr. the atternoou in.
rado was a grand one, for the place. Col.
Rolnson was marsiiall, assisted by John T.
Nourse, Harry Moore, Luke Davis and
Kbert Humphrey. T. T. Davis, and Kev.
Thompson, delivered addresses to the mul
titude that assembled in the grove adjacent
to town alter the parade. A meeting was
held in the grove in the evening by torch
light. It was the time for camp lire stories
aud reminiscence. A number of preachers
were present, all the editors excepting the
editor ot the SrsTisn axd Rkpiblicax
were there. Prominent citizens in all the
walks ot life were present. Congressman
Atkinson waa present. It is so a rare thing
for Juniata to have a Congressman, that
everybody enjoyed getting up to, and sit
ting around their own Congressional "vine
and tig tree." Atkinson is a genial sort ot
a man, and the boys like biin. When he
was a boy surgeon in the army, he got to
like the hearty meetings ol citizen soldiers.
in camp, and now that the war is over, he al
lows no chance to escape the re-unions ol
comrades. With all that he is a man ot abil

gressman. But I am trespassing too lengiu
i'y upon your space. A hundred incident
