WlTrws the last ten days, eight Sena
tors of the United States have been
chOsen by tlO Legislatures of as many
Commonwealths.. Massachusetts • re
elected Hon. Henry Wilson, who has
represented the old Bay Stab? continu
ously since 1865. Maine has ro-elected
Hon. Lot M. Morrill ; New Jersey has.
ehosen•Hon. P. T. Frelinglmysen ; Dela
ware, llmMEli•Saulsbury ; Illinois, Gob.
John A.. Logan ; Missouri, Gen. F. P.
Blair ; Minnesoti, Hon. William Win
dom ; and Michigan, Hon. T. W. Ferry.
Messrs. Wilson, Morrill, and Freling
hoysen have nll had considerable service
in the Senate, and are known to the
-whole country as model statesmen in
every respect. Men of the highest moral
character, ,of commanding abilities, and
thoroughly devoted to the principles of
free government, their coming terms will
witness a conscientious and intelligent
performance of their duties, which "dill
place them still higher in the esteem of
their countrymen. Messrs. Saulsbury
and Blair represent the Democratic party
as it exists in 'Delaware and Missouri.
Saulsbury is famous as being ono of the
three brothers who monopolize the hon
ors and offices of the little State of Dela
ware. its brother; Willard, has been
Senator from that State for the last
twelve years, and has done little else
than disgrace his position during that
time. The three brothers were candi
dates for position :this year, an there
is, doubtless, a sore disappointniciat in
int: minds of two of them. Saulsbury
may make - a good Senator, hut if he does
it will iipt be because of his political
-cipirrionsti—or—trim-velationshi —Fit r iittk- . -
Blair is very well known. He has been
very good soldier, but a very uncertain
sort of a politician. Ile is a Democrat
now, ,and will remain - so until the next
Senatorial election in MiSsonri. What
lie will be then will depend greatly on
circumstances.
Messrs. Logan, - Windom, and Ferry
are new to no as Senators, but they have
made exceedingly good records as mem :
Mils of the lower. Itouse: Logan has
been particularly conspicuous as the Con
gressman-at-large from Illinois since the
war. Ile is a man of_great natural
ability, and force of character, and will,
doubtless, make himself felt in tIM Sen
ate. The Republicans have every reason
to cungrittlibite themselves on theirnewly
ebosen S'enators.
lIE :wetly& balance in the Treasury,
at Washington, ranges about $100,000,-
1100. We confess our inability to colh e
iu.eliend the good that accrues from 'keep
ing.this vast fund as - a reserve: Why is
it done ? Our revenues exceed our ex
penditures, and have done so for years.
We have been, for the last two years,
making large payments on our _National
debt. Why not devote at least three
fourths of this balance to tho'samo pur
pose? We used to imagine that the
- Government would- resume specie pay
ments by some definite act,_ and at a,
given time, and while this appeared to be
the.intention,_ there was a necessity fora,
large surplus. We are'convinced new;
- and have been for some time, that the
plan is to reach specie Vaynients through
a very gradual improvement of our creel=
it and the force of circumstances. While
we don't believe this to be the best plan,
we are quite sure it is what,nine-tenths
of all the people who believe in paying
our debt, at all, are in favor of. If that
be so, then, the Government does
more wisely in heeding the voice of
the people, than by taking the direct cut
to solvency. They are the only ones
...interested in Cho matter, and they
have the right to Their preference.
But to the main question. To use limo
great bulk of the surplus in the Treas
ury in the purchase of bonds, would
vastly iinprove . our credit, diminish our
interest, prevenfr extravagance, and gen
erally accomplish a very desirable thing
for the Government. To the people who
arc now cramped often fey money, for
legitimate business, the" disteibution
would be an immense relief. Put it 'On
tie other' grounds than that of party in
terest, we believe that the administra
tion NV'infid event° a very strong tide of
popularity, by the dislmrsement of
nearly all ik surplas fund,: immediately.
Tut: last- persecution 61: Thaddeus
Stevens,. by the Democracy, is ended.
Since his de. trilthe Democratic liapers
of Lane; er, started the story that lie
died it intensely rich, owning $200,000 of
Pacific Railroad bonds. which they
alleged he had corruptly received from
the company for his sei'viecs, while hi
Congress. This sort of a story went the
rounds of courser and was accepted an
conclusive evidence of the total depravity
of Republican loaders.' Well, last week,
his Executors filed their inventory in the
Lancaster Court,. When it was discovered
that his entiropersimal coital - A:was less than
$40,000, and that it contained no Pacific
bonds whatevci'. What shtiuld be done
with these hypocrites who are•so con
stantly nutking false charges of corruption
against their opponents to cover up their
own thefts t' Buchanan's personal prop,
city was at least a quarter of a million of
dollars,' while Stevens, with live times his
ability,energy, and opportunities for
peculatimi,Alics" worth .less than 4150,000.
Bitterly and justly as It 14 opponents
denounced Bochanan's faithlessness and
imbecility as — a ruldr, we have no re
membrance, that his large fortune •was
ever credited to corruption. "But when
Stevens dies a comparatively titaor man,
every 'arilcan brawler ill the State
demos it a part of his religion, to brand
him a corrupt politician, and a venal
legislator. This silly slander has, how_
over, received its quieti}s now.

Trin.trouble at West Point, over the

to the 'disgrace of the authorities of that

negro, and the young gentlemen who are
educated at the Government expense,
see fit to think themselves degraded by
being in the same school with him. This
is a matter of opinion with themselves,
and they can very easily relieve them
selves of any unpleasant associations, by
leaving the school, and seeking some
profession which will -render them safe
from contact with n'egros. If they in
tend, holdover, to make martyrs of them
selves for their country's good, they
should bo forced to do it quietly. The
white cadet, who in any manner What
ever, shapes his conduct with a view to
drive Smith ass'ay' trona West Point,
slMuld be dismissed summarily. There
are thousands. of boys in the country,
who are fully equal in capacity; and
manliness, to any that are now at West
Point, who would give no trouble on this
score. It may as well be understood
that Suiith will not lie dismissed from
the, school on account, of his color, and
if the othei cadets cannot 'find 'in his
conduct enough to secure his dismissal
for other causes, they had better give
the matter up, and treat him as officers
and gentlemen are expected to treat

If they do not, let them leave.

HARRISBURG LETTER
llnititisminG e Januriry 24, 1871
The Legislature certainly was not
overworked last,week. The Senate met
ou Mehe,y, and lifter consummating the
outrage n the-Deehe'rt case 'With 'great
promptness, worked leisurely along until
Thursday, when it adjourned over until
to-day. The House had a short session
on Friday, and then folltwed the exam
ple of the Senate. We have had now
three weeks of the Legislature,' and may
sum upits entire labors, as resulting in the
organization, the election of State Treas
urer, and the formation of the standing
committees. Perhaps the Common
wealth may be the gainer by this, inas
much as there can be no harm done,
until some action is had ; but the people
would not readily tolerate the same
leisurely work from any ollieLbranch of
the Government.
It was, doubtless, suoptire'd by the De
mocracy that When they turned the
Dechert contested election case out of
court without cause, that the Republican
majority in the House would follow their
tactics. In this, however, they were
mistaken. Although the House did re
fuse to entertain petitions in which the
formalities of the law had mutt been com
pliyl with, yet in the case of Judge
Lynd, a Republican, elected last year to
the District Court. of Philadelphia, whose
election is contested, the House went
into joint conventiow with the Senate,
and proceeded to draw a committee.
The manner if drawing a winnable is
complicated as much as possible, so as to
preclude any chance of unfairness.
When
, the joint convention has assem
bled, and is ready to draw, the Clerk of
the House is required to write the itame
of each Senator on separate pieces of pa-
per, as nearly of the same size as possi
ble, and to place them in a box. The,
Clerk of the Senate than shakes them
thorotighly, draws them out, and
puts them, alternately, into three boxes,
A teller from each House having been
named by the respective speakers, the
Clerk of the litmit'e proceeds to draw the
ames, alternately, from the boxes, tint il
welN , e names Ore drawn. each party
has the right to object until there are
but twelve left, of pthich privilege the:ct
usually avail themselVes. When the sen
ate lie is complete, the House comMittee
,
is drawn nt the same manner, except that
the Clerk of We Senate does the -draw
iltg, and the list allowed is twenty-five,
ace m challenges have not
ht usted al the names' when the list arc
completed, the 'remaining names t - tare
drawn, and handed to the` opposite
speakers, - respectively, who are required
to read them loud to the. convention.
If any mistalt6 or unfairness i$ discov
ered,'a new drawing, tiuder' the same
formalities, is required. When the'llsts
are completed, copies are furnished' to
each of the partieS, who retire to sonic
adjoining rood, and in tIM Intsende of a
clerk ;or member chosen for that Tun.
P . Oso, strike, :alternately, froth the lists,
Until but four Senators and - nine mem
bers remain, who constitute the commit
tee. The decision of the conunittee, - or'
a majdity of final and• conclusive - . -
•The above deScriptien of the drawing
would tend 'to make the bblief HMI a
committee would show thick same relative
political complexion as the. Legislattlytl, ;
"from which it is (yawn: This is not, iu
ovitable, by any moans, as the result of
the last drawing clearly shows. Wh n.
•tho Senate list was completed, Rime
were 'but three'Dethocrats to.nine
'publicans drawn. The striking,. 'or.

giving Ole Republicans the whole
that , pert of the Committee, although
the Senate is Democratic. In tho House;
the rebult was also a full Republican
board ;
.consequently •the joint commit:
tee has not a single Obniocrat upon it.

Message in ti: Moose. The Dotnoorats
wore' vary loud . hi .their eulogy of that
portion or it which releten to the 0100 7
tiona and gonoral ;monody, but when
called Upon to endorse its recommenda
tion of waking the \ State Constitution
conform to the Fifteenth. AmondMont,
and'its advocacy of piotection, they were
very weak in the commendations: Their
ondoiseMent of the message was a most.
transparent', farce,' that didn't even de
'eeivo the loafers in the lobby.
Perhaps the'" sensation" of last week
was the Report of Gen. Thomas L. Kano,
President of the Beard of „ Public
Charities, which that accomplished, but
slightly erratic' gentleman made to the
Legislature without - consulting his
colletigues. Gen. Kane intimates, in
munistakablo torme; that the labors of
the aforesaid Board- ,have been of no
value, and that, it should be' entirely re-.
constructed. From the language of the
report the inference is irresistible that the
other members have not always adopted
General Kn••• theories , .. \ without
question, but i ['they differed' widely,
and insisted on differing. .Although'tho'
others may have been four "of the
stubbornest fellows" the General ever
saw, Ny,e doubt,. very much, it , that
justified his arraigtffnent of associates
before the Legislature, as incompetent
and dilatory. Wo will most likely have,
in due time, the report of the other
members after Which the right, amid wrong
of the matter will more clearly appear.
Until Gino we must conclude that Gen.
Kane's:unexpected State paper was more
characteristic Gin prudent.
Tyron Lewis, the gentleman whom
the Democrats elected from the Repub
lican county of Delaware, has made
very =looked for precedent. A few
days since, he returned. all' the free
passes .he had received from the railroad
companies in the State, as he thought
it improper, in a Legislator, to accept
those courtesies. This was all very com
mendable-i mtheory,--and-may,-perh aps,.-
give the gentleman great popularity in
his . own county, and be of great services
in reforming Legislative morals. We
in
cline to the belief, however, that this
honesty is entirely too pretentious for
useful purposes. A man may=be a good
Legislator, and accept the courtesies of
railroads, and may be a very bad one,
without accepting them. . ,

A GOOD IDEA.—Chief Burgess John
S. Low, conceived the idea of making
the. male portion of the "bummers" in
carcerated in Fort Foreman, at least
earn some of their "grub." Accordingly
on Tuesday morning last, 14 of these
noted individuals were furnished with
shovels and brooms, and being placed
um er t e survet lance o the policeovere
directed to clean the pavements around
the four squares. ' In the afternoon they
were then ordered to shovel walks ,
through the old graveyard, and Ashland
Cemetery, and also clean the pavements
surrounding Dickinson College. This is
right, find .we heartily , a rove of the
- CaptiiiiiTiffea. TitIPTEMIreS" would
soon "steer clear" of our county, if con
stant employment were furnished then'.
CARLISLE MActurtE 'Woatt9.—We
would cal] attention to the advertisement
of Messrs. Ga . rdner & Co. which appears
under the head of " New To-Day."
Among the various implements manu
factured at this .establishment, is the
Cumberland Valley Thresher and Sepa
rator,.which the proprietors claim to be
equal, if not superior to any other
machine of this kind now manufactured.
They also build tho Cumberland :Valley
Self-Raking Mower and Reaper, with
desirable changes and improvements.
Also, the Willoughby Patent Gum
Spring Grain Drill, with or withbut
Guano Attachments. They also manu
facture and keep constantly on hand
every implement needed by the farming
community.' Sco advertisement.
'l'n current issue of Lippincott's
Ilagaeine contains a great variety of
articles Upon subjects of an entdrfaining
character. "On the Ice-Belt" is a
graphic description of thii beautiful and
striking phenomena attending the form
ation office along the Shores' of the Groat -
Lakes. " The Marquis" is a quaint and
humorous story that will please by its
novelty. "The
. War Records at the
Patent Office" constitutes a very interest
ing account of the numerous inventions
made in arms and hospital apparatus
during the late civil war in this country.
" Rome on the Twentieth of September"
is a narrative of the scenes which marked
the capture of Rome by the Italian forces,
and is furnished by an actual observer.
Lord Palmerston is the subject of a very
pleasing and instructive sketch front the
pen of Mr.. Robert M. Walsh. In this
article the distinguishing traits of the
mat premier's character are clearly and
forcibly portrayed. " Chess" by a
Tenth-rate Player, will be found agree
able and suggestive. The poetry and
stories of the present number are in
keeping with the usual elevated standard
maintained by Lippincott's Magazine for•
productions of this nature. The
"Monthly Gossip" it unusually interest
ing. Not to speak of other things, we
would mention in terms of eulogy a
brilliant and entertaining sketch yr the
incidents connected with the din
given to Mr. Dickens in Lonilon, for io
his last visit to America, and of tar oc
currences of his cut ward voyage. Lip
pincott's Magazine is certainly gainiinz,
both in the already high tone of its

of the week;the last day or the•month,
^ the last day of the year, and the last day

cured in 1710, and will again oce.vvrin•
1010, and also in 1000 • •
Tine days are getting longer. A
marked dillerence in tub length of the
days is very perceptible: The Sun rises
at 7.10'a, m., and sets at 1.10 p. In. So

•
NT i Novi has been made in s,,inejlilar
tern, to produce an impression that the
clergymen of Carlisle are responsible for
the removal of a portion of the troops
from Carlisle Barracks. It is sufficient,
perhaps, to say that the only action of
these clergymen; -in the- case, - was to re
monstrate against a dress parade of the
troops on the Sabbath, and against spec Ld
efforts to draw a crowd of people 6. at
tend upon .the playing a_ the_ h:wd-of
Music on that day..
Os Monday morning last, a guard Jr
U. S. soldiers brought to the Barracks,
a fellow-soldier from Fort Mel lenry,
hand -cuffed and gagged. The prisoner
was charged with having attempted to
take tie life of an officer, while utatimi 4 ed
at the 'latter post. Ile has been brought
here for trial before the Court martial
at present in session at the Barracks.
The man, we are informed, acted very
badly . during his journey, and aft ; tii• he
had been placed in the Cumberland Val

• - NirritEn SNOY—On Sunday night
last, snow began to fall,' and continued,
without interruption, until a late hour
on Monday night. It was accompanied
with a considerable - align Of wind, Vitus-.
ing the snow ,to drift very imich - iu
sonfti although it did - not im
pede - travel on the Odndierland Valley
Railroad, as all the trains passed througlh
this place on schedule time.. As we
write this article the merry jingle of the
sleigh bells greet our ears, - itroving con
clusively, how very acceptable a huge
bed . Or snow would—be—received-b4-he
younger portion of our community.
,Judging from • the manner iu which the
runners drag over the stones, we are in
clined to the opinion that, the sleighing
is far from being good. Thb "storm
appOars to have been very general all
