BUTLER CITIZEN |OMN H. & W. C. NES'.EY, PROP'RS, Ejttere<> per dav for attending conventions to elect County Superintendent.-' In the Senate a bill has been reported favorably repealing an old act of 1700. which requires owners of lauds to en close to same with fences. There is a general bill yet pending requiring railroad companies to fence their tracks. The one to which we re ferred last week as having been killed, by having an amendment tacked on it, was, we leam, a special bill. So there is room for hope that a law so much needed may yet be passed by this Leg islature. A bill granting a gratuity of and an annuity of $l2O, to soldiers of the war of 1812 and their widows is before the House. A bill fixing the salaries of Judges throughout the State permanently, so as not to have them dependent upon appropriation bills, has been introduced. The House Judiciary Committee has reported back to the House the bill districting the State into districts. Lawrence county, by this bill, is made a separate district with a new number. This, if passed, settles all trouble and leaves Butler county a separate dis trict, of itself, and retaining her original number. Gov. Pattison sent a special message ; to the Legislature on the Ist inst., rela- 1 tive to the charge made by the Hon. | Franklin B. Gowan against one E. G. j Patterson, of Titusvillc, who, when in j the employ of the State, is charged with selling out the interests of the State to the Standard Oil Company, or in other words, of being bribed by that mammoth company. An investigation will likely take place. The consideration on final passage of; the bill for the distribution and use of | unclaimed human bodies for scientific ; purposes was resumed, when the fol- j lowing debate took place, which will j explain the nature and objects of the , bill: Mr. Laird said the bill discriminated ; against the poor, and that the principles . contained therein were horrible. Ihe I enactment of the bill into law would be j to place the wards of tt e State at the ; disposal of wolves. Mr. Stewart was not surprised that i the moral indignation of the Senato; ] from Westmoreland should have been : aroused by the introduction of the bill. \ His own had been stirred. The object i of the bill was not only repugnant to | our natures but iniquitous iu itself. Mr. Reybnrn, who introduced the bill, expressed his willingness to accept amendments to meet humane objections of Senators. The vote by which the bill was pass ed third reading was reconsidered, and Mr. Laird offered an amendment, which was adopted, that "any humane person," as well as relatives of the deseased, may claim the body and pre vent it from being dissected, within twenty-four hours after decease. Mr. Lantz moved to amend by re moving the mandatory feature which obliges poor directors, overseers of the poor, etc., to surrender unclaimed bodies to the proposed board for distri bution and by making the surrender permissive or discretionary. Messrs. Ilughes and Stewart oppos ed this amendment as its tendency would be to encourage traffic in dead bodies. The amendment was not agreed to. Mr. Agnew offered an amendment, which was agreed to, that medical col leges in the counties iu which persons j may die shall have priority of claim to i dead bodies intended for dissecting pur poses. Mr. Ross offered the following as an amendment; ''Only criminals who have been convicted, sentenced and ex ecuted according to law for the crime of murder shall be legal subjects for / medical and scientific purposes and , said subjects shall be delivered over by the Sheriff." The amendment was not agreed to, and similar action was taken on uu amendment offered by Mr. Laird that the subjects for dissecting purposes shall be murderers and other persons giving their consent ;o such procedure. The bill was then agreed to, and laid over forfiual passage. Mr. Everhart's bill, to prohibit the issuing of free passes, was made the order for Saturday morning last. The Wallace voluntary tribunal act was passed finally—yeas 48, nays 0. On motion of Mr. Humes, tho vote by which the State Board of Health was defeated was reconsidered—yeas 28, nays 14. Old Times in the Legislature.— Uncle Jake Ziegler Invited to Lecture. HARRISBURO, February 2C>.—Undo Jake Ziegler entertained the House to night, when Glenn, of Armstrong, in troduced a resolution testifying that Uncle Jake was a walking encyclopedia of Legislative reminiscences and au thorized the Chair to appoint a, commit tee to ascertain from Uncle Jake when he could favor the legislators with a lecture in the House on old times. The partriarchal Representative from Isutler objected. There was a good deal in the past, he said, as he looked around the House with a knowing smile, that had better be buried in oblivion. If, however, any gentleman desired to hear something about the foibles of great Statesmeu of yore Pncle Jake would whisper It in his ear (ilenn insisted upon the pass age of his resolution and it went through with a shout. Uncle Jake says he is not sure that he will lecture. George W. Hall wanted the commit tee on Ways and Means, of which L'ncle Jake is Chairman, discharged from further consideration of t)u> concurrent resolution asking the committee to fix a time for the adjournment of the Leg islature. Uncle Jake astonished Hall by saying tiiat the committee had no such resolution. "Where it can hayegono," he added, "the Lord only knows." "Maybe it got lost between the two houses and swept out by the scrub-women." Hall then introduced a resolution to adjourn at noon ou Friday, April 27. Jamison, Democrat, of Bucks, caused it to lie over by objecting. Pittsburgh and Western and Pennsy 1v an i a Rail roa d s Make an Important Contract. A contract, says the Pittsburgh Commercial Gazelle, that will prove of more than usual advantage to the city and t) the business community of the countrv at large has been made between the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and the Pittsburgh and Western Kail road Company. The Pittsburgh and Western to get into Allegheny City way compelled to cross four tracks of the West Peun at Pine Creek, _ ami to I make the difficulty greater the Penn sylvania has made extensive purchases of land at this point. The Western had an agreement for a third rail on the West Penn tracks which enabled it to bring the narrow gauge cars into the city, but this did not permit of run ning standard gauge cars, and there was danger of the Pittsburgh and Western getting to the city's door and then standing there knocking vainly for ad mittance. It was possible to cross at grade, but only by a fight tint meant long and vexatious delay. On the other hand, the Western was in a position to grant a favor to the Pennsylvania, and after several consul tations an amicable agreement was effected. I'uder this agreement the Pittsburgh and Western gets the u-e of the West Penu tracks from Pine Creek to a point near Willow Grove, where it takes its own tracks. It will have free use of the track- and will pay a stipulated sum as an annual rental and a proportionate share of the ex pense of keeping the track from Pine Creek to Willow Grove iu repair, this to be calculated on the wheelage. If the Pittsburgh and Western shall at any time desire to construct its own tracks the Pennsylvania will run its line nearer the hill, and if the Pennsyl vania shall desire the Western to build its own road it will give thirty mouths notice to this effect and move the West IVnu tracks to make room for the new line. In return for this the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company obtains the u.-e of the Pittsburgh and Western tracks fron) a point in the lower part of Allegheny, where connections can be made, to Pine Creek, for both passen gers and freight traffic. '1 he Pennsyl vania will pay a certain tonnago, even the empty cars being taxed. The advantages to ha gained are manifest at a gla-ice. Tue Pittsburgh and Westei n avoids a long litigation and will only pay (or the qse cl the West IVnn tracks an amount that will not equal the interest on the money re quired to build a similar stretch of road. The Pennsylvania does away with the hauling of freight cars through the Allegheny parks, avoiding the heavy gi.i'ies and »way with th-3 complaints of the people, us in the fu ure only passenger trains will be taken the old Hue. In Pitts burgh .no dangers of the crossing at Liberty a;.d Eleventh streets will be decreased, as there will be no freight trains to cross at this poiijt. By means of the Junction bridge all local traffic from the Panhandle and Baltimore and Ohio, including the heavy C')ke and coai hauling, will be taken to Allegheny, end the overcrowded yard between the Union Depot a,"4 fh'.rty-third street will be releaved. Hut the greatest saviug of money will lie in the through freight. The West Penn Railroad has been overhauled and is now a low grade road. All through freight for the East gud West v/i)l leave the main line of the Pennsylvania at the West penn junction, and will be taken through Allegheny on the Pittsburgh ar.d West- j crn tracks. The cost of running trains j over the low grades of the West Penn yyill be much less than over the heavy hills on the i«.i»in lino, and in addition to this thj tolls on the Ft. Wayne Railroad bridge over the Allegheny will be saved. The Ft. Wayne bridge is owned by a private corporation, and every car taken over it pays toll, an item that assumes large proportions in b. year's tiiij3. The contract into effect at ouce and the result will show immediately. Responsibility of Boroughs •Judge White, at the session of 'bo court at Washington, I-a , laid the law in a case showing the duty of city and borough authorities, as well as supervisors of roads, in re gard to keeping public thoroughfares in safe condition for travellers, which is interesting throughout the State. The case was that of Williams against Monongahela City, being a suit for damages, Williams having been injur ed by being thrown frotif his sleigh, which had come in contact with a pile of frozen dirt. The plaintiff was awarded $;>,000. "lioroughs and cities are brand to keep their streets in a reasonably safe condition for travelers. They should not permit any obstruction ii) the streets, or anything that is likely to endanger the safety of travelers. Per sons who may wantonly place obstruc tions in the street may also, under some circumstances, be liable in dam ages for a personal injury; but the bor ough or city is liable where the city of ficials have actual knowledge of its ex istence, or where it has continued Ions? enough to give them information, al though the*/ may not have actual kuowledge of it. The neglect of a city to keep its streets in.such condition is called in law negligence If the dirt pile was some nine feet from the curb stone in the street, four feet in diame ter at the baso, and some eighteen inches hiffh, aud had remained on the street with the knowledge of the of ficers of the city having charge of the streets, from the Nth or lSth or 20th of December until the first of February, I have nohesjtftncy in saying the city was guilty of ncgligenub. The main question, however, in the case is: Was the plaintiff guilty of contributary negligence? Because, notwithstanding the city may have been guilty of qeedigence yet if the plaintiff was also guilty of negligenoe which contributed to the result, he is not entitled to recover. Whilo travel ers have a right to presume the street is clear the entire width of it, yet they are bound to keep their eyes about them, bound to drive with some de gree of *.urp and prijdenoe, in conse- J tpience of these obstructions tj. it ijjay exist. The degree of care required of the traveler is a degree of care that would be exercised hy an ordinary pru dent or cautious man under the exist j ing circumstances. fjgr*Xo woman really practices economy unless she uses the Diamond Dyes. Mauy dollars can be saved every year. Ask the druggist. Pensions. WAsnixnTON, February -Jl.—Gov ernor ('uriin iaslitin interviewed by the rhilaih Iphia Tims* on the Fort}- dollar l*en.-ion Hill. 11-• said anuing other things: 1 reported that bill to the Houst between i the age of twenty-five and thirty-five, : at wiiieh age these people wi re thus | maimed, is not over fifteen years If that is correct and th" mortality ; should increase lor the future at a ratio I corresponding with the past, the Uov ! ernment will uot be long taxed to pay | this increase of pensions. 1 notice ! that complaints are made about that ! part of the bill which provides for an ■ equivalent disability. What would be regarded as an equivalent disability ' should uot be hard to ascertain, p.nd iu : ray judgment a disability of that kind should carry with it the S4O per month which the bill provides for those who lost an arm or leg. There are, I be lieve, (1,000 of this class of disabled soldiers living, and as they are all pensioners now, there would be no difficulty in ascertaining to whom the pension should be paid, and impositions on the Department would be quite im possible- Xo distinction is made be tween privates and officers in this bill. An unjust and improper distinction ex ists in tii" present pension laws. The j private i.~ quite as deserving as the officer and gem-rally is in the greater need. Some, without investigating, cry out that these p -nsionswill co-t $100,000,- : 000. I can not say defin'tely what, the ' amount wiil be, but 1 think 000,000 I or £j.O,Q6K),OQO will be tu:i;-ieut. 'L'Lo | bill before the Sou vie iticreises ihe | pensions as they are nnv paid. I do j not think ihe bill is just, because it ! still continues the distinction between I the private and the officer. It refers to j that class of men who lost limbs or ! parts of !ii»;.b=. and increases their pay as, for instance, the man who lost an arm below the elbow joint gets eigh-] teen dollars per mouth ; the man who lost a leg at the ankle gets twenty-four dollars. >'o the man who lost the hand gets less than the man who loses the leg r ; t the ar,!;le. >,'ow the distinction as to what a man gliali receive—as to whether the arm or the hand is gone, or the part of the leg,—is absurd and unjust. The man who lost part of the leg can no more use the leg naturally th<» mar) vvho lost all of the leg : and the man vvho lost his hand is ipiite as much deprived of the means of a livelihood as the man vvho lost his arm at the shoulder. There are about two thousand five hundred applications neriqonth I',led at the Department for Tensions. llow do you account for so large a number? "I account for the increase from the fact that many persons are applying for pensions that have neglected it.; manv that have been able to do with out it, some who wero too pronu to apply for pensions before, and some, 1 regret to say, who have no right to S a pension. There have been a large I number of fraudulent cases, and a large ' amount of money has been paid on ' pensions which should never have been I paid. Those frauds 1 think aro stop ped. Now it is quite impossible to get a fraudulent case through.'' Mr. Curtiu said in conclusion, that he felt a great interest in the passage j of this bil] as ho thought it a sisnnlp ; act of justice. "And when it is pro posed to extend further justice and the munificence of the Government to other classes of soldiers equally meri torious, I vyiil be foqud active jn tho support of such measures." Oysters Siek in Their Beds. "Green gill" is a term made use of among (Jualers to describe the peculiar appearance of some oysters at certain seasons of the year. It is reported that great excitement prevails at Red Bank, New Jersey, owing to the dis covery of this "disease" which renders j the oysters unsaleable. Thomas I*. Covington, an old and experienced : dealer in oysters, of that city, vvho has beds of his own and is thoroughly eon ' versant with til the ills to which these j luscious bivalves are subject, explain ed the matter in this wise: "Near the J bottom of an oyster, on the right side, | you will observe a layer of skin that j looks like a lip. Under this is the gill, j in many of the Ohincciteagues and ! some from Snow Hill, and the Ilap | pahannock river—iu short, among j those which come from Southern | waters—the gills are sometimes a | bright green. This is not observa ble in a raw oyster, but when cooked the hp curls up and the green is plain ly visible. This is uaused by the green | sedge which floats down from the i river's tributary to the oyster beds in ; the fail of the year, upon which the I bivalves feed. They are unmarkct- I able because of their ugly appearance ' and most people do not understand I thr t t ibey all tl;e fatter and better i tasted for it. Some dealers rake their I beds occasionally to remove the grass • and yet we have customers who say that "green gills" are at a premium : with them. "A real disease, however, and one that is fatal in its results, has just , made its appearance in the oysters i from the Rappahannock. Since tho I first of the year these have been the ! best in tha market, but three weeks I ago this disease was observed. It , consists of a small black spot, which ! none ljt|t a dealer \yill see. The oyster , is perfectly good ail around the upot, I but if this is bitten into the whole . thing is made bitter and unpalatable. I It is, jr. fact, the beginning of de-pay, and tho oyster is bound to die iu a j short time after it appears. This dis ease brings the Maurice river coves again into demand, and in my opinion . there are none better sold in I'hiladel j phia to-day. j MARQUIS DE SALAMANCA. The Death, in Spain, of this j. Eminent Financier. Recent foreign nil vices received by Mr A. 11. Siecle, President of the Sh •- nan go ti Allegheny II lilrotnl Com pany, announces the death in Spain of the Marquis Don .losede Salamanca, the eminent Spanish financier arid philan thropist, whom many of our readers will recollect in connection wiili the Atlantic iV Great Western Kailrotd — i. \v the Ni• w York, Pennsylvania Ohio Railroad. Many attempts had lit en made to complete the Atlantic A Great Western Railroad ironi the Krie Raiiroad, in the State of New York, to a connection with the O'aio «v Mississippi Railroad l at Cinciun *ti prior to 1 an 1 every attempt had tailed, when William Rey nolds, of Meadvilie, (Jen. Ward and Marvin Kent, <>t Oiiio, went to Europe with lettc..- f introduction from many of the prominent people in the three States of .V'.v York, Pennsylvania and ■ Ohio, including one from the Presi dent of the I'nitcd States These gen tlemen called upon 11•»ii. .lames Mc llenrv, tie n a prominent merchant in Liverpool, but whose early life had | been sp- nl in the family homestead in Haimony, Butler county, Pa., and later in I'ktsburg and Philadelphia, who was personally acquainted With . the country through which the pro posed roarl was to be built. Mr. McH .'iiry, after much solicita tion, undertook the task of raising the I capital necessary to construct the road, j himself becoming one of the largest i contributors and subsequently its con tractor. I The Marqt.is de Salamanca and the Queen of Spain, personal friends of .Mr. ! Mcllenrv, were the first to subscribe, each i' 1,000,000, $ 10,000,000 and the entire line from Corry to Dayton was constructed with Mr. Me Henry's char acteristic energy and its early comple tion after he took control surprised all railway managers The present flourishing town of Salamanca, N. Y., was named in the ' honor of the Marquis who, to the last ! day of his life, maintained his interest j in the prosperity of that unfortunate company, and his death must provo a great loss to its friends and proprie tors. Whittier's Opinion of a Boiled Dinner. The old-fashioned New England j beverage, eider, was mentioned, and Mr. Whittier stated that he had once derived much benefit when unwell, "when nothing tasted good," from the use of cider. Huntington suggested that without cider we should not have vinegar. "Well," said Wi» it tier, 'vin egar is uot ol much use, after all.'' "Except," replied Huntington, "to eat on cabbage and cucumbers." "Neither of which are lit to be eaten," remarked the poet. "1 think it would be a good idea to start a prohibition party on those two articles. As for cabbage it i>4 not tit to be eaten ; if you cook it in your house you have got to burn the house down afterwards to get rid of the smell ; it is certainly the most dia bolical smell that was ever invented," and Whittier who vyps near tl.o open stove grate, upon the top of which he bad deposited his hat, folded his hands and laughed a silent laugh. "What do you think of onions, Mr. Whittier?" asked I. "Well," lit re plied, "onions r ; re not quite so qad , for you tan get rid of tha smell of those in three or four days." "Then," said Huntington, "you would not approve of the old-fashioned 'boiled dinner V " "No. 1 think that is a detestable dish. I remember that my father used to i,avc il, iu which cabbage, onions, beets, potatoes, turnips and carrots were all boiled up together, and turned out into a great dish all in a heap, with a great greasy piece of meat in the middle. 1 think that is the reason why the present generation is not sq strong as the former. H ta owing to the way the parents lived, eating so much pork and potatoes. Our last war. showed that. The farmers were not nearly as strong as the men recruited in the cities—Portland, Portsmouth and JJoston." "Rut the people in the cities do not have the free air we get in the countrj'," said Huntington. "I know that," replied Whittier: "but they live bett.:r, and that makes a great d i tie re nee.'' — Ha rper'ts 11 'eekl //. i ,W V ISRJ i if.
