THE Legislature of Pennsylvania,
alarmed at the prospective loss of pay
for unearned service in extra sessions,
/ have appointed a Committee to inquire
into the motives of Attorney General
Palmer in preparing the opinion. What
the motives of an officer in preparing
a judicial opinion are, is a fine question
in the abstract; but the people of Penn
sylvania are concerned only in the
concrete quest on, Is the opinion of
the Attorney General a correct expo
sition of the law ?

Parker City and Foxburg, to connect

followed by a gang of laborers under
the leadership of competent men, di

'OLD ABE,' the Wisconsin war eagle
died at the Capitol building, Madison,
Wis., last Saturday night. The bird
was sold to the Eighth Wisconsin
Infantry in 18C1. He was with the
regiment four years in the army. At
the close of the war he was presented
to the State. He has been a!l over the
nation since. In 1805, at the great
fa ; r in Chicago, his exhibition netted
SIO,OOO, and at the Milwaukee fair,
the same year, $9,000. He was four
mtmths at the Centennial at Philadel
phia. AII the State officials, headed by
the Governor, visited and viewed the
remains of the historical bird.
Tiik late su'ow storm has been se
vere all over thin county. At tb:s
place it fell to tbedepth of about twelve
inches but in other parts of the county
we learn tl at it is at least eighteen
inches. Sleighing an'l sledding through
the country was as good on the Ist,
2nd, 3rd and 4th of April an at any
time during the past winter. It wan
an unusual sight to have so much snow
and to fee it lay bo long at thin time of
year. Winter in truly "lingering in
the lap of spring" in this year, A. I).,
1881. We hear that the hay arid feed
for beasts isgft'ing scarce with many
farmers, and undoubtedly if this kind
of weather continues much longer there
will be a scarcity and demand for food
for cattle, etc.
COMING COURTS.
Another special Court will commence
on next Monday, A|/ril 11th, and to
continue for three we»ks, for the trial
of civil causes. A rpccial term will

AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION-
Wo are r.ure that all good citizens
will Is; pleased to learn of the probable
passage, io tin; State l.< gihlatU'e, of the
bill providing for an amendment to the
constitution, prohibiting the further
manufacturing or sale of liquor in this
State, except fjr mechanical, medicinal
it:i<| o.;icntific purposes. Tbe bill passed
in the House last week by a vote of \)H
for to 38 against. Hoth our members,
Kraham and Bell, voted in the affirma
tive. It now goes to the Senate and
will lie watched with interest there. II
agreed to, it will lie published, and, if
again passed at the next General As
sembly. will then be submitted to a
vote of the people of tbe State, and if
approved will become a part of the
constitution. It is the same as that in
corporated in tbe Kansas State Consti
tution, and will settle the main ques
tion on the liquor subject.
come what will, Russia cannot
witn.-tand tbe influences of the more
civilized world about her, and, should
the new (,'/.4r a tempt any reactionary
measure.'*, the futes will be against
. him. Already the Russian pretjj is
j.oMly clajyOriug for a Copptitutibo.
' Vennor Vind'cated.
While no British subject (of Canada)
is more unpopular in the United States,
or more denounced at present Than-
Vennor. the weather prophet, yet it
must be admitted he is generally on
top (of the snow), though many wish j
be was " snowed under." He did not ;
hit it exactly as to the snow fall of this
month, as we bad deep snow ou the
Ist of April, bat his predictions for the
month, as given below, will be received
with increased interest. They are as
follows:
"There will be sharp frosts in the be
ginning of April, with a snow storm on
the 4th or sth, but the spring will open
favorably, and everything will be pretty
well advanced by April 15th. Floods
may be expecteg in Chicago about '.he
first week in April, with high winds
also prevailing in the early fart of the
month. Snowfalls are probable about
April sth. Navigation is likely to ODen
on I.ake Ontario about April Tth.
"The St. Lawrence will be open
about the 9th or 11th, and the first
steamship will probably arrive about
the ltth or 18th. The weather will be
verv stormv in the Lower Provinces
about the 20th, with very high water
prevailing; but, in the West, April will
be a dry month. There will be warm
weather just following the 20th, end
ing in thunder storms on the 24th and
2Mb. Snow storms are probable in
the far West on the 25th or 2«th, and
snow storms are not unlikely to occur
in England at the close of the month.
The month will end wet and cold, but
on the whole will belike a May month."
lIABRIsBCiMi correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press, writes of Attorney
General Palmer's 'opinion': If his
opinion holds good its effect will be to
revolutionize the entire system of leg
islation. Instead of adjourning over
for a week as soon as it organizes, the
Legislature will begin business, com
mittees will be promptly appointed,
bills introduced early in the session,
and the public will expect less talk and
more work. Under the old system
three or four weeks were generally
frittered away at the beginning of the
session figuring on the make-up ol
committees, the distribution petty
patronage and other magnificent trifles,
to the great delay and detriment of
public business.
MRS. GAUFIELD, mother of the Pres
ident, is a type cf the Northern Ohio
pioneer mothers, and has not yet for
gotten the lessons of thrift arid economy
taught her in early lite by necessity.
The following illustrative incident is
related by cne of the newspaper cor
respondents on the train tbat bore the
President and family to Washington.
In the hurry and bustle of the morning,
the porter "forgot to extinguish the
lamps in the car, and they burned at
full head long after daylight. At last
the lighted lamps attracted the "Id
lady's attention, when she said to the
President-elect: James, put out those
lamps. It's no use wasting the oil
when it is doing no good.' General
Garfield called »he porter's attention to
the matter, and the waste of illumina
ting fluid was stopped immediately.
President Garflcld at Oburch
There is hardly a plainer or
more unpretentious church structure in
any out of the country village in the
lend than the Christian Church at
Washington where the President and
his family goto worship. The building
is of wood, its architecture tbat of the
ordinary school house. Its seating ca
pacity must be less than five hundred,
including that of the narrow gallery
which ruus across one end of the in
terior. Opposite the gallery is a small
alcove where the minister stands to
preach. The singing, which is purely
congregational, is led by a small cabi
net organ placed in the middle of the
church and presided over by a very
young ladv. The Christmas jrarlaud»
are still above the windows, arid to-day
there was on a little stand near the
minister a large boquet of exquisite
flowers, sent from the White House
conservatory.
The President, his wife and mother
occupy a pew on the right, too far back
to lie conspicuous. Mrs. Garfield's !
costume is plainer than that of many
ladies about her. The mother is not
distinguished from ..th'-relderly women
by her black gown, black bonnet above
her snow-white hair, and the smoothly
folded white kerchief over her bosom I
The Rev. Mr. Powers is a young man, ,
apparently not over thirty, with a good
voice and clear enunciation.
The service of the Christian denom
ination includes the communion every
Sunday immediately after the sermon, j
and, as a member, the President re- j
mains wi h other members for this pur- j
pose. His mother and wife are also]
communicants. No other church at-j
tended by any President, within many i
years, at h ast, is as unpretending as i
this. President Lincoln went to the j
New York Avenue Presbyterian ,
Church, then called Dr. Gurley V !
Church. Though not a large edifice, j
it is of brick, with two floors, an j
organ loft, and furnished with a steeple
like a city church. It is a short dis-j
t a rice from the White House, but Pres- j
ideiit Lincoln with his family always j
went in a carriage. But it was "war
time," and the streets here were not.
paved and clean as they are now. An- j
drew Johnson attended service at the !
Methodist Wesley Chapel in Fifth—»t, j
a plain brick building much like the j
Christian Church, except that it is lar
gcr. Mr. Chase went there at Ihe i
same time General Crant attended .
for 8 years the Metropolitan Chun h iu j
C_st. a pretentious brown-stone strue- ;
ture that has not yet been paid for.
There are wood carvings, stained glass
ed windows, soft carpets aud all that ,
pertains to elegant and comfortable re-;
ligion. The organ is one of the finest !
in the city, and at one time the choir j
was composed of first-class singers well
paid. One had to go early to Ret a
seat in this crowded house of worship,
and when the Presidt ut's family enter- ,
ed at a side door there was an unuiis- i
takable movement all over the church ; j
and yet President Grant was himself;
most plain and unassuming. Perhaps
it was the size an elegance of the house
of God, or the lashonable worshippers,
or the minister that made it all seem
quite grand, aixl in a certain way, iin
pressive. And when the people mov
ed out the organ pealed forth classic
music, and outside the crowd waited to j
see the President's carriage go by. Al
together there w s a good deal of for
mal ceremony and display ; but no a bit
of it by 'he President himself.

According to a correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times, Daniel Sturgeon
Joubert, the able eomm tnder of the
irallant Boers, who have ijeeti giving
the British army such a threshing in
South Africa, was born at I niontown,
Pennsylvania. He was born in ls-,1,
and named after Daniel Sturgeon. U. S. -
Senator from this State. His father
was a Hollander, and after the death
of his parents young Joubert became a
sailor, making several voyages between
Holland and the Boercountry. In 18fi2
he enlisted in the United States Navy, j
and under Admiral Dupont aud others, |
lost an eye at the bombardment of:
Charleston, for which disability he now
receives a pension from our govtnnent
He is next heard of as a captain <»1 a
negro company in the Army of the Po
tomac He served directly under Gen-'
eral Weitzel and his men ruarcbed with
Weitzel's other troops, who after l.ee's
surrender, took possession of Richmond.
After his discharge he visited 1 nion
town under an assumed name. The
one-eved young captain, still wearing
his full uniform, revealed himself, how
ever, to Hon. Daniel >turgeon, then
aged over eighty years, who secured
for him over $700" the savings of his
parents, which bad been pot at interest
on his father's death. Daniel next sail
ed for Holland and from there t" the
country of the Boers, in South Africa.
Becoming a resident and citizen of the
Dutch Republic, be was, in 1875, elect
ed representative to their Congress for
the province or department of Obaitgi.
When the late war broke out between
the Boers arid the British, Daniel Stur
geon Joubert was promoted from one
militarv office to another till he is now
the commander-in-chief of all the Boer
armies.
A Railroad Rumor.
There is a rumor afloat that Dr.
Hostetter is buying up the stock of the
Parker, Karris City and Butler rail-
road at ninety dollaas per share and
that it is contemplated to establish a
line of connection between this city
and Bradford, Pa. The rumor says
that a connection will be made be
tween the Pittsburgh and Western
road and the Parker road by laying
twelve miles of track between Evans
burg and Butler. The Parker road
would then lie extended to Foxburg
where it would connect with the
branch to Clarion. I rom that point
the scheme is to construct a road
through a wild, mountainous, unsettled
section to the town of Bane, where a
connection would be made with the
narrow gauge roao to Bradford. Sev
eral purties who got wind of the above
rumor questioned its authenticity, in
view of the fact that the Pittsburgh
and Western road is dickering with
the Baltimore and Ohio Company at
present and that there are strong rea
sons for believing that an agreemant
will be made by which the Pittsburgh
and We tern will pass into the con
trol of the Baltimore and Ohio people.
In this even the gauge would be
changed to standard, Mid this would
be rather inconvenient for the narrow
gauge folks in tin- upper country, un
less they got the privilege of laying a
third rail It was also stated that the
alleged connection would be made
within four months, but it, woulil
take lively work to build forty miles of
road through a mountainous section,
and make the other connections alluded
to, in that brief period.— ('o.t.mcrcial

More of the Conner Robbery.
A correspondent of the Clarion (Pa ,)
Republican-Gazette of the 30th ult.,
furnishes that paper with the following
interesting details of the Connor rol>-
hery, tuat was recently perpetrated ou
the Allegheny river near Brady s Bend,
in Clarion county.
He says : On Wednesday evening
last at about hall-j iiht eight o'clock, a
party of masked men entered the dwell
ing of John Conner, Sr., in Madison
township, this county. Mr. Conner
was quietly enjoying hiseveijing smoke,
while his wife was reading aloud t >
him, they two being t lie only occupants
of ihe house at the time. The first
move nf the scoundrels was to grapple
with Mr. Conner, who is about 80 years
of age, at the same time presenting re
i volvtrs. Mr. Conner succeeded in get
j ting posessioa of the weapon when the
| second of the party seized it aud wrest
ed it from him, ar.d in doing so lacera
ted the old gentleman's right hand in
a terrible main r. Mr. Conner seeing
j the scoundrel aiming a blow at him
j with the butt of th : rev./ver, cndciv
j oring to ward it <'U with his left hand,
| anil receiving the force o' the blow on
| that hand, had it badly crushed Find
ing that he was now l.ejpless, they
! cooly informed him that he need make
j no alarm, as his son, living but a few
; rods distant, was safely bound and
; gagged. They then demanded the key
j ol the safe, and enraged at bis refusal,
| they placed a revolver against his head
! and tired it, fortunately the builet did
j not penetrans the skull, but made a
j very ugly furrow in the Ilesh. Sup
posing the key to be ill the clock case, j
they endeavored to obtain it, but failing
' they again attaeked Mr. Conner, who
' finally yielded and gave them the key. ;
| They then tried to open the safe, and J
j although four of them made the effort, ,
j they didn't succeed They then at
tempted to compel Mr. Conner to open
it for them, but this the brave old man
i lelused to do, daring them to put their
i threats into execution and take his ,
' life. "Let us torture the oi l woman," I
' cried the seeming leader. Bather than
'allow this outrage, Mr. Conner a-ked
! them to carry him, as he was now
! helpless, to the ttfe and he would
j open it for them. 11 wa- <1 ur-, and the
i robbers leisill ely helped, themselves to
bonds, bank-bill* aud si! v< r, amounting
• to somewhere between ten and twelve
thousand dollars. They made a thorough
sear h amongst the papers to find if
; there was a iv memoranda of the nuui
: her of the bonds, but finding none
seemed very well satisfied Their mxt
move wa- to tie ; lid gag tile old couple,
winch they did so elbci ii'tllv tint Mr.
Conner only succeeded in freeing him
self about daylight m-xt morning. Af
ter they bad secured their plunder they
offered to treat Mr. Conner to a drink
of whisky. When they were leaving
i he asked them to cover Mrs. Conner to
prevent her from suffering with the
cold, which they did, but finding he
could talk they fixed the gag In >ru «te,
j curely. It was not known how many
' were in the party. Four were in the
house, but it if. supposed there was a
i jiiejict or two outside.

in their desire to veil ''ave" the loudest. |
The feature of Tuesdays session of
the Senate was the consideration of the
bill t* secure to workmen prompt pay
ment of their wages. The bill has
special reference to the coal-mining
sections.
In the House, Wednesday morning
the anti freight discrimination bill was
considered. Mr. Mapes championing
it gave examples of alleged freight dis
crimination. claiming that it cost more
to carrv certain classes'of goods between
points iu this State than between points
in Western States and Philadelphia.
He referred to the numerous fortunes
made by what he charged, freight dis
crimination, and spoke of the law's de
lav and the non-punishment of all who
have violated the law in the matter of
freight discrimination. Mr. Mapes
closed with an appeal for the passage
of the bill.
Several others spoke for and against
the bitl, and it passed second reading,
after an immaterial amendment had
been added by Mr. Law allowing car
rying companies to charge less per
mile for long than short distance.
The House on Thursday, after hear
ing a number of pititions regarding cer
tain bills, hearing reports of commit
tees, and the reading of several bills in
place, resumed on second reading the
act relating to license for the sale of in
toxicating liquors, introduced .by Mr.
Flii.n. The bill grades the fees for li
censes as follows per year :
Sales amounting to $20,000, a fee of
.S7OO.
Sales amounting to SB,OOO, a fee of
S4OO.
Sales amounting to SO,OOO, a fee of
S2OO.
Sales amounting to s',ooo, a fee of
SIOO.
Sales amounting to less than st,ooo,
a fee of S.OO.
This hill was discussed at length,
when the further consideration of it
w: b inch finitely postponed by a vote
of 88 to 73.
In the Senate the hill providing for
the election of two overseers of the
poor in February next, the one receiv
ing the highest number of votes to
hold office trt'o years aTid the other to
hold office one year, and annually there
after o e person shall he elected over
s«er of the poor for two years, provided
it does not apply to counties having
poor houses managed by directors elect
ed for that purpose, was passed finally.
TIICRSDAY.
The House met at to cousider
the hill proposing an amendment to the
Constitution prohibiting forever the
manufacture and sale of intoxicating
liquors except for mechanical, medicin
al and scientific purposes. Mr. Furth,
Philadelphia, made an argument against
the bill, and .Messrs. GVlhorn, Somer
set, and Clark, Philadelphia, in favor
of it.
Symington Phillips ogercd an amend
ment inserting the word 'sacramental.'
Mr. i'ierly offen d an amendment to
the amendment striking out the words
'medicinal, mechanical and scientific
purposes.' If the bill passes in its
present shape, he said every drug store
will be a tippling house. We have
enough of that already.
Mr. Furth made a vigorous start in
opposition to the bill, ami waslaunching
out in highfalutin speech, when he was
interrupted by Messers. Niles and Col
born, who gave notice that the temper
ance men did not propose to discuss
this question, and would not answer
the gentlemen. Mr I'urth proceeded
making very weak points. He said
over-eating was intemperance, and yet
no one wanted a law against that.
This preject, lie said, savored of the
actions of the abolitionists who wanted
to manumit all o! the slaves at one
('<•11 swoop, because it destroyed millions
of dollars worth of property invested
in the liquor trade. There was such
a thing us intemperance in temperance
views, and there were temperance fan
atics and zcah.ts.
Mr. (.'lark spoke in favor of the hill,
and related an incident connected with
a recent visit to the liastcru Peniten
tiary, in which a man s» rving a term
of 1-2 years for manslaughter, told him
that he had committed the deed for
which he suffered, while under the
influence of liquor. Mr ("lark said he
would vote to suppress the evil, which
was the crying shame of the age.
He hoped Pennsylvania would fol
low Kansas in this matter, and was
glad he had an opportunity to vote for
it.
.Mr. Colborn spoke in favor of the
bill.
j Mr. Mapes hoped the amendments
' wood be voted down, and the House
! promptly voted down, Mr. Bieilv's
amendment.
Mr. Phillips, amendment was also
. defeated-
Mr. Bierly offered another amend
-1 ment providing for the payment of any
damag< ■! a:iy manufacturer may sustain
I by the adoption of the amendment.
This Was Voted d »wn.

Crazed by Small Pox.
READING, PA., March 30.—The most
intense excitement prevails in the vi
cinity of the couety alms house, from
the fact that two small-pox imates
had escaped in all their hideousness
and attired in the clothing they have
worn during their terrible disease. Ef
forts were made to recapture them, but
the officials Jailed to find them. A
number of new cases have developed in
the poor horse, making six in all. One
man died, and the officials report that
bis body turned perfectly black alter
death, creating the impression that he
had died with black small-pox. Tiie
general public is requested to abstain
from visiiiug the institution for th(i
present The disease vas brought to
the place by a wandering stranger af
flicted with it. The man who captured
him in the open country and brought
him there was afflicted. The institu
tion has about 400 inmates at the pres
ent time, many of whom are in a state
of alarm and a panic is threatened.
The New Church Dedication.
Last Sabbath morning the new Ger
man Ev. Luth. Church was formally
opened. The day broke in clear and
fine. The church train west brought a
large number of Lutherans and their
friends from Freeport, Saxon Station
and further out. Long before services
had been announced the pews and aisles
were filled with people. After the
opening ceremonies, which were made
unusually impressive by the assistance
of the choir of the Freeport Lutheran
Church and the excellent playing of
Miss Lizzie Truby, their capable leader
and organist, the Rev. Prof. Gilbert of
Greenville, Pa., performed the sacred
consecration, assisted by Rev. Waters
of Butler and our pastor Rev. Tieman.
After this, Prof. Gilbert delivered a fine
sermon bearing on the subject incident
to the occasion.
In the afternoon Rev. Waters preach
ed to onr American friends, who had
come early to find seats; but only those
who came very early succeeded in g< t
ting comfortable places.
The church was decorated with
wreaths and flowers that had been sent
by friends the day previ :us, and the
whole was pronounced a credit to the
committee and our town The collec
tions were larger than had been expect
ed (for which we are re quested by the
committee to express sincere thanks to
the liberal dom rs). The number ol
spectators was estimated at eight ot
nine hundred. Almost one hundred
dollars were contributed.— *>ut/'onu
Valley Times, April 1.
Claiming too Much.
The claim is made on behalf of Sen
ator Conkling that he ought to be al
lowed to control, as a matter of coii-sc,
the appointment of the Collector of the
Port of New York, and that any selec
tion made by the Preaident for that
post, without the permission of the
Senator, is a species of robbery, a vio
la'ion of his vested rights.
This claim seems to us to rest upon
an entire misapprehension of the im
portance of the office Before one of
the Senators of New ork can assume
that the Collectorship belongs to him,
captious people might ask how you
show that it even l»elongs exclusively
to New York; and shrewd New York
j oliticiaus v ould be wise not to raise
that question too vociferously. The
Boston Custom House, an infinitely
less important establishment, lias
i.ever been considered the vasted pro
perly of the State of Massaehu-eits.
Franklin Pierce appointed Charles
Feast ly, of New llampsh re, C ilh cior
I of Boston, and Andrew .Johnson ap
! pointed Hiinniba! Hamlin, of Maine,
to the position. The Naval Office of
the Port of Boston, resting upon pre
cisely the same foundation as the ( ol
lectorship, is now filled by a New
Hampshire man, and, if we mistake
not, has been so filled ever since Mr
Lincoln appointed Anion Tuck in I SM.
If it has been considered proper to
take the officers of this comparatively
small establishment from the whole
extent of the New England States,
with how much reason can one Sena
tor claim to control the colossal reve
nue system represented by our own
great National Custom House. Three
fourths of the revenue;! of the Govern
ment are collected here. I here is not
a State of the Union but is largely in
terested in the administration of this
immense trust, and yet there are peo
ple who say that the control belongs
i to one gentleman a - absolutely as the
domestic economy of Ins own liou.-e at
| L'tica. No sueh congestion of power
in the hands of our man has evi r b.-< n
i permitted iu this country, and it would
j be an evil omen if the Senate should
1 now sanction a pretension so prepos
i terous.— Tribune..

NEW YORK, March 20.—A startling
discovery was made in lloboken to-day
in the posS-mortem examination oil the
dt ath of Mrs. Adolph U'.iihoU No.
2!l Washli gton street. It was (band
that she had been literally <• lien alive
iby trichina 1 , from the effects of which
; sbe died Sunday evening, lit r hus
band is now sick with the same dread
disease. 'I bey were both taken sick
shortly after eating some raw ham
1 which was purchased of a neighboring
butcher. Dr. Kudlich, of No. I)S4
Hudson street, was the attending phj -
sician A Trlcyram reporter called at
his office this mor ing to get the facts
of the case. Tho Doctor said: "It is
u real caye of trichinosis and the result
1 of the post mortem can bo seen under
this microscope." The reporter lo iked
through the glass, which disclosed an
innumerable quantity of living ani
malctila.. "{ was caljcd to see Mrs.
Bonliol Is fifteen days ago," continued
the doctor. "1 found her buffering
from cramps and in great pain. She
refused to cat and could retain nothing
on her..stomach I first thought fie
symptoms short'ed cholera, but in a
few days her limbs commenced to
swell and • disclose! evidences of an
animal porSon. I questioned her close
ly and found that she had IK en eating
raw ham and sausage, and at rnce de
cided that it was trichina- I did all 1
could for her. She gradually declined
and died in treat suffering Sunday
night. Her husband has the same
svmptoms and is now very sick. I
am in hopes he-will live through it, as
he is a very strong: man. Afier con
sulting with several physicians we
concluded to hold a post mortem and
I called in Dr. Elder, the Hudson
countv physician; I>r. Wendt, the
well-known microseopist of New York,
and others. The examination satisfies
tis that the disease is trichinosis in ail
I its aggravated forms and that the un
fortunate woman was eaten a'ive I
have had sixteen cases of this character
in my twenty-six years' practice in
Hoboken and this is the first fatal case.
It is the result of eating discard pork "
The medical authorities of Hoboken
are to bold a further examination in
the case. Considerable excitement
exists over the startling discovery.
