"Nothing has been more conclusive

Tbi Long Island woman who de
nied herself the good things of life
and eared $1,230 in order that she
might have a gland burial could
scarcely be classed as an advocate of
funeral reform. Sho was a maiden
lady, who lived alone and worked
hard for what she got. Her father
and mother had been buried by pub
lie charity and she was afflicted lest
she herself should come to the same
fate.
She kept on resolutely saving her
money aud finally made her will, di
recting that 6he should be clothed in
a suit of white and that her body
f-hould then be placed in a solid lose
wood coffin, with six silver handles
and a silver plate bearing her name
and age. The hearse was to be
drawn by six h'n ses and there were
to be six pallbearers, with white
gloves and white 6carfs. The inter
est on the balance remaining after
payment of thesa charges was to be
paid to some person for keeping her
grave in order.
When she died her directions were
followed and she had her funeral.
But alas! her will has been declared
illegal and void and the kind-hearted
minister who w as appointed executor
and had carried out its provisions
must now look about for money to
foot the bilL This his parishioners
intend to raise. So it turns out af
ter all her saving and all her care to
provide a fine funeral for herself she
was finally beholded to the money of
strangers, just as Ler father and
mother had boen before her. Phila

The marriage of Fred Douglass to
a white woman has raised the ques
tion of marriage between the white
and black races, till it is being dis
cussed by the whole peoplte. Alex.
Crummcli D. D., an ab'e writer liv
ing in Washington D. C, is against
the amalgamation of the races. He
can think of nothing more in
jurious to Lis own race, the black
race. The New York Independent
has since the marriage of Douglass
been writing upon the ral-.jcct of tLe
intermarriage of the races and per
haps has not been understood as to
what position it occupies on the ques
tion. E. H. Moon, of Holly Spring
Miss., did not understand the Inde
pendent and put the following four
questions, which are answered by the
editor of the journal mentioned ;
1. Have you any child ren ?
Will Mr Moon pardon us if we tell
him it is none of his business? The
Independent is edited impersonally.
2. If you have any children are you
willing for them to marry Negroes
of intelligence and of good charac
ter? We should prefer that the hypo
thetical children of the hypothetical
editor, supposing the editor to be a
pure Circassian should marry neither
a Negro, nor a dwurf. nor a blind
person.
3 If you were a single man, and
were looking for a wife, would you
be willing to marry a Negress?
Probably not a black woman nor a
blind woman, nor a dwarf.
4 Do you believe in the amalaga
tion of the races wonld be for the
good of the whites?
We see no advantage to come from
it. We do not recommend it We
We only allow it as we allow any
other marriage; for marriage is a
matter of taste. Better marriage than
concubinage. Better lawful than
unlawful amalgamation.

M AusTiiiiviLLE, Pa., Feb. 21, '84
.Mr. Editor : It has always been
understood that everything that ex
ists has had a beginning, and that
Kin" Solomon had said, there is a
time for everything under the sun.
Now, I believe it is about timo to afk
for a convention to amend the State
constitution to reduce the number of
the members of the Legislature to
one hundred. I believe that- one
hundred good, sensible, practical
men will have sufficient judgment to
pass any law of utility that may be
asked for or to give their reasons for
its rejection, just as well as 1,000
men would do. Why should we pay
one hundred and one men for look
ing on ? I would say 40 members in
the Senate to receive the proceedings
of the House is enough, being two
fifths cf the number of the House.
Pennsylvania always got along legis
lating with one hundred members in
the House, and thirty-three in the
Senate till the amendment to the con
stitution of 1873, and I cannot notice
that we are any wiser, richer, cr in
any manner better off financially than
before the late amendment to the
constitution which was hastily thrust
upon the people, before half of them
had read it or understood it. It had
friends in the counties, among cer
tain men, who foresaw, that by its
adoption more members would be
required, and then there would be a
better chance for them to get in ai
one of that body which was regard
ed as honorable, which term is now
worn threadbare. Just think of 251
members sitting there half a year at
$10 per day and doing just nothing.
Oftimes there would be absent, on
leave for a few days, 10 to 50 mem
bers, and they perhaps at their homes,
attending to their own affiirs, or per
haps travelling for pleasure, while
you and me aro taxed directly or in
directly to fi'd tBe coffers of the treas
ury. Surely there is something
wrong, there is a screw loose and yet
no man puts forth bis hand to repair
it An old proverb says, "that which
is everybodys' business is nobody'
business," which is right here mani
fested to the people's hurt. It has
been said that our Legislature, as a
body individual, charged $10 per
day for each and every Sabbath day.
Now, they worked that day, and
should be fined, for it is a breach of
the law of God and man, but if they
did not work oh that day I would
like to know what right they had to
charge the State for that day. What
right hail they to charge the State
for a dij's work which the law for
bids ? Let the people see to it, the
next time that they nominate men
for dignified office that they do not
nominate mere politicians, but law
abiding and God fearing men who
will do what is right, let the world
wag as it may. Tacitcs.

The 21st of February was some
what cold, and after my return from
the river, the circumstance within
doors at the Evangelical parsouage,
in Thompsontown, were somewhat
pleasant, by way of a donation party
of a few families. After a short, but
pleasant time, they left, leaving quite
a Dumber of article behind them, as
tokens of respect In the evening,
about 8 o'clock, there was a rap at
the door ; on opening, we faced quite
a number of persons, who entered
theouse in a way that was pleasant
and cheering. By previous arrange
meet it was agreed, on the part of
the people of the Locust Run ap
pointment, and some of the Luther
ans of that place, io surprise their
pastor and his wife, in the way of a
douation visit A abort time was
pleasantly spent in social intercourse,
after which we all bowed in humble
submission to God, iu prayer, after
which our friends retired, leaving be
hind them tangible evidence of their
kindness and good will, in shape of
groceries, butter, fruit, lard, potatoes,
flour, meat, horse feed, and money.
We take pleasure in noticing that
some of the folks of Thompsontown
also had an interest in the matter.
There are pleasant faces and happy
hearts at the parsonage fireside, and
it is hoped that those who made them
so are equally happy in giving. For
these and other gifts frequently re
ceived from the kind people through
out the charge. We return our sin
cere thanks aud invoke upon them
the blesding of IIaveu.

Dr. Jones' Mistake.
Old Noxon used to have a row with
bis wife about 3 limes a week. lit
got cranky aud made up his mind to
sbutilt: of; so be tilled up with lauda
uuui and went to bed. Tba old lady
went to screnmiug, aud as fast as the
neighbors came iu sent tbem off after a
doctor. Some of them went iu one di
rection and soiue iu anotber, and it
wasn't long before the doctors began to
cocgregate. Smith got there erst and
looked tbe old man over. "Dead,"
says he, and be went away. Then
Brown came in. "Dead, says he.
Jones was the third one in, and be
rammed a stomacii-puuip down tbe old
wail's throat aud pumped up tbe drug
store. Then be reversed the action
of the pump and flooded tho old man
1 1 b water, and, after sloshing him
around lor awbile game as if lie was
riusiug out a cider barrel he pumped
out tbe water and then flooded bim
again. Hoxoa wasn't in the habit of
taking so much water iu his o, and
pretty soon he begau to grasp and
kick. Before morning Jones had bim
mil right, and went away feeling dead
sure that there w&.s but one first-class
doctor in tbe world. A few days af
terwards he presented his bill. What's
this fur? says oid roxon. "For sav
ing your life tbe other night," says
Jones. "Well, I didn't ask vou to
I never employed jou, and I'll not
pay it. You'd no business comiug in
bere and jambing your old pomp down
my neck. Brown is my family physic
ian, and I'll not pay anybody else,"
saysNoxon. So away went Jones to
Brown's office, and tried to get him to
induce old Noxon to pay the bill.
"Jones," says Brown, looking out over
tbe top of bis spectacles, "I never
thought you was a bad sort of a feilow,
bat you've done a very foolish thinp
and it serves you right to lose your
bill. It's a good lesson to you, and I
h pe you will profit by it. Didn't 1
say be was dead?" "Yes," says Jones.
"Didn't Smith say he was dead?"
"Yes," says Jones. "Well; that set
tled it! Tbe man was dead, and you
bad no right to say that be wasn't;
when two old, experienced doctors like
Smith and I, say a man is dead, it's
unprofessional aod disnourteous for a
young man, a begmoer in practioe, to
dispute their word. We'll forgive you
this time, because of your youth and
inexperience, and will bush the- matter
up for you ; but be very careful in the
future, and make no core such mis
takes?" Cbarles Palm, of Spruce Hill town
ship, died of pneumonia, on Saturday
morning, tbe 23rd inst. Be leaves s
widow and five helpless children.
