that the State Legislature is strongly Re

-Mr. Roberts, or the Utica, Y.,) dis
trict, is the only member of Congress who
his refused to partake of the $5,000 steal—
at any rate he is the only one wehave heard
of 'who 'has taken that honnrablti 'stand.—
We are proud to say that Mr. Roberts-iS a

"honorables" were wont to denominate " a

..Those members of the late Congress who
effected to regard the popular condemnation

the voice of the " mob" has already been
echoed by the Legislatureof the great State
of, Qhio. That body% last week passed a
joint resolution censuring the 'Ohio mem

A ministerial crisis has sprung upin Eng
land resulting from a vote of the Commons
defeating the . Irish 15rnirrsity bill-Lone of
Mr. Gladstone's reform measures. Although
the majority against the liberal Ministry was
a linen one, Mr. Gladstone at once placed
his resignation in the hands of the , Queen,
and Mr. Disraeli was called upon to form a
-new Vabinet. But that wily conservative
was not anxious to, enter a position from
;Which there was every chance that he might
soon be driven, and he asked time to con
sider. What the-result will be it is impos
sible at ,this writing to say; but the proba-
bility is that the Tory leader will fOrm a
government, dissolve Parliament in• a few

The fate of Foster, known as " the car
book murderer," is at last settled. A most
persistent and powerful effort baa been
made to procure from Governor Dix a com
mutation of the death sentence to that of
imprisonment for life. Distinguished
yen. clergymen, and laymen have united in
praying for the wretched criminal's' life.—
Even the widow of the murdered man has
joined in the petition, and e crtidcates to
Foater'a good character and lamb•liko die
position have been adduced by the score.—
The New York press has taken up the sub
ject, and has abounded in editoriala and
letters now pleading for mercy and now de
manding that justice be done. The Gov
ernor has patiently weighed all these ap.
peals and arguments, and has decided that
he cannot interpose to stay the award of the
law. The sober judgment of all good chi
zena will honor him for that decision. So
ciety will be the safer for it.
Herdic's' "Minnequa County" bill was

the bill, seems to be its chief engineer.- So

Governor Hartranft is rapidly showing =
himself to be a firm and jiidicious custodi
an of Executive power.'.. In his inaugural
address he expressed his disapprobation of
special and local legislation, and since that
time he has neglected no fitting opportunity
to carry his ideas on that point into opera
tion. He recently returned to the House
two bills of this hinii, closing his veto mes
sage with the following sensible rdfriarks;
" Special legislation may be proper, and
often necessary, in matters where the courts
are not authorized to grant the powers and
privileges
privileges sought, and there are :to general
laws whereby they can be obtained; but
where such - power is vested in the courts, or
provided for by general laws, it is not excu
sable or profitable. •The public business of
the Commonwealth as well as matters of lo
cal or private character not within the ju
risdiction of the courts or provided for by
general laws, and the proper consideration
thereof, should not be embarrassed with un
necessary legislation,- and which is. other
wise wiaeli
and carefully provided - .for."
Az of to Sill New Railroads.
The first number of the new 'illustrated
daily paper, the Graphic, has a pletufe rep
resenting "Columbia" struggling in the
loathsome and deadly embrace of a row)
star vividly described by Victor flea , u his
"Toilers of thSea" as the "De. ;11fisli."
The scene dep eted—that of a lovely. At , k .
man about to ft‘ 1 a prey to this slim, num
li
ster of the deep—is painful enough, bat it
derives an additional interest from the fact
that the artist has written on 4 atich of the
armstof the hideous creature the,name of
some great
. railroad corporation. In other
words, he represents the whole country as
struggling in the grasp of the great monop
olio which are, day by day, encroaching
on the rights and sapping the potaeiaof the
people and the State. One name which oc
cupies a prominent position in the picture
is that of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, and all who are acquainted with cur •
-
rent events of the day will agfee with us
that the artist has not given undue promi
nence to the monster corporation which al
ready stretches its arms across the conti
nent, seeks to bind whole States in its iron
fetters, subsidizes legislatures, and threatens
to crush altbppositlon in its relentless grasp.
New Jersey has recently felt an uncom
fortable hug from one tentacle of the mon
ster,
and there is danger that our own State ,
may Boon be subjected to another that will
prove crushing to all railroad enterprise not
in the direct interest of this overgrown coo
peration. A;few days ago a bill was intro
duced in the Senate by arr. Alexander 311 a
Clare, which is called a supplement to the
free-railroad law of 1868, and which 45 evi
dently
designed to destroy that law ,so far
as it is entitled to be called "free." This
precious bill provides that it shall not be
lawful for any railroad company now or
hereafter incorporated under the provisions
of ,the act entitled "An aeattraLohorizQ the
formation and regulation of railroad corpo
rations" approved April Bth, 1868, or any
supplement thereto, to cross- any public
street, road, turnpike, way, or railroad at
grade, but such railroad shall be located and
constructed so as to pass either above ()run
der the same. It, is further graciously pro
vided that a connection may be made with
the railroad of another company, but only
by its consent and for' the Interchange of
traffic. The act further provides that it
shall not be lawful for any such corporation
to construct or use any bridge or viaduct to
cross any river without first submitting to
the Legislature the report of a competent
civil engineer, to be appointed by the Gov
ernor for the purpose of examining and re
porting upon the proposed location, plan,
and specitleaaion ther(of, but at the cost of
the company on&ag application therefor,
and obtaining thereafter Maces authority
from the Legislature, authorizin;
directly
and in express terms-the zonstruction .." 44
use of such bridge orviaduct. This clause
is inserted ostensibly or the.purpose of di.
i,
minishing the obstruc t loneto the use or nav
igation of the river so crossed. The third
section of the act rePeals all the provisions
of the :railroad law of 1868 inconsistent
with the proposed supplement. -
It must be evident to every man whO re
flects a moment upon the provisions of this
bill that it might properly be named "An
act to prevent th building of any new rail.
roads in the State of pennsylvania." If
passed, its immediate efffct will be to de
etroy the Free Itallroad Law, of the State.—
A.nd no'doubt this is the intention of 'its au
thus. a It is a bold and ilUblushiprattempt
to wrest from tb hands of the people all
power to carry forward their own enterpri
ses in establishing and extending the means
of rapid communication. Its unmistakable
object is to establish and consolidate for all
time the monopoly Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, and render the people
of the whole State subservient to the scep
ter of Tom Scott and his-successors forever.
Little "argument is needed to show the
baleful erects of this scheme, if by any
possibility it could be carried into operation.
The growth of the State in :population and
wealth is largely due to the railroad system
elready establiehed. To prevent the expan
sion of that sydtem would be to check the
development of the Commonwealth. Every
heal-est of the - whole people demands the
free and rapid extension of the moans - of
cheap and easy communication 'between the
different sections of the country. New rail
ranicla are especially necessary to the groWth
of nth portion of the State. Oar-region
abounds in latent material resources really
more precious than mines of gold or silver;
but now a large part of these *sources are
undeveloped because the means of cheap
communication with the markets of the
world do not exist, and anything which re
tards the establishment of railroads would
prove a calamity to all Nortlawestera Peen
sylvanie.
But this bill, if enacted' t rift not only re
tard the building of new roads; it will.pro
hibit them. Its object and its inevitable
effects are so patent .that it is to be=

can ever suffer it to become a law ; but in

rageous provisions. It is to be hoped, how
iver, that the Legislature will listen to the
bitter popular denunciation which this pro-
posed law has already excited in various
portions of the Btete. But'if the potent ar-'

SENATOR JOll F. LEWIS
This gentleman has been elevated to the
chairmanship of the Senate Committee on
the District of Columbia. Hewes the only
man of the Virginia Convention who refused
to sign the ordinance of secession, and is
moreover a liberal-minded gentleman. Ile
is understood to be in favor of improving
the District, and will therefore not be an Ob
structionist, but will favor all reasonable
appropriations for improving the capital of
the country in the future. 'The Congress
that bes just adjourned has done well to
ward this District, though some of the ap
propriations failed for want of time: It is
ifow-uQierstood that the uniform plan of
improvements will be completed so soon as
the spring opens and the work can be per
fotmed. All our streets will be paved in
the best modern 'Style, and Washington will'
no longer be the mudhole of the Union, but
will be one of the most elegant cities of the
world. God speed the good work!
CLOSE' OF THE MODOC WAR:
Despite the efforts of many settlers in the
region, of the Modoc field of war who aro
anxious to exterminate the Indians, and
who are constantly writing false accounts
of Indian movement; the Peace Commis
sion will end in a success. Captain Jack
has consented to he removed to Angel Isl
and, in Ban Francisco Bay, with his tribe,
'and thus the Modoc war is closed, thanks
to the statesmanship and humanity of- the
President's policy, without the expense of
millions, which its continuance would have'
entailed upon the country { in addition to
the disgrace of making a national war on a
handful of Indians and their women and
children. "Let us have peace."
U CREASE Or SALAREIIB,
There is considerable criticism here in re
gard to the action of Congress in increasing
their salaries, and dating the increase back
40 88 to include tho,pstat sa , o gvars. IC mo
increase to $7,600 had been made prospect
ively there woulli have •been-little•opposi.
tion to it, as tionsuch dependq.ullon.our pub
lic servants having pay adequate to their
services and the importance of their station.
Few men of experience are prepared to de
ny that to prevent corruption at the very
fountain head of our laws there should at
least be no necessity for using indirection in
the matter of ordinary family expenses.-L-
The precedent of taking $6,000 each at the
end of a session is undoubtedly a bad one.
Sortie persona imagine that in future many
times that amount can be taken with impu
nity upon the precedent thus established.—
It remains to be Seen, however, whether the
men who were active in this matter are not
left severely out in the cold, and if this is
done, no further experiment of the kind
need be feared.

RIIERING AWAY FROX SLAVERY.
How Fred. Douglass Escaped.
Fred. Douglass delivered a lecture to a
crowded house at the Philadelphia Acade
my of Music a few evenings since, in the
course of which he told for the first time
the story of his own escape from slavery,
as follows:
"While slavery existed I 14 good reason
for not telling the story of my escape from
bondage, and now that that great trial is
over I do not know any good reason why I
should not tell it. People generally- fraafc
ined that it was &marvelous recital c but
is one of the most simple and commonplace
stories that could be given. I was owned
id Talbot county, on the eastern shore of
Maryland, in 1886, and a few years after
wet time made my escape. Iliad been sent
up to Baltimore by my master to a brother
of his for safe keeping, but it was estrange
movement to send me sixty miles nearer my
liberty. ' •
" len Ildetermina on escaping, I look
ed t for the proper means to accom
plish my purpose. At that time great vigi
lance was exercised by the authorities.--
Everybody was strictly watched, and if a
slave - was found outside the limits of his
master's plantation, he would'be liable to,
show by what right he was out of place. I
was put to work is a ship yard ; and com
menced to learn the busineslipf ship' car
pentering and caulking. Here r had fre
quent intercourse with sailors, and in them
1 thought I discovered a feeling - of sympa
thy and kindness. Although the difficulties
and obstacles against escape Were apparent,
Iy insurmountable, I conceived an ided that
I could secure my release by dressing in
sailors' clothing and making - at surreptitioital
retreat.- But I had no papers; by which I
could pass froot place to place.'• Portimate=
ly I met with a• men named 'Stanley, who
lived in Baltimore, and , who_was - free. lie
resembled me in stature, 'and from him I
obtained a suit of sailor's clothes end his
protection papers, and in this apparel, pro
vided with the necessary articles, I, in Sep
tember, 1888, secured' my liberty. I got
Isaac Rhodes to take my bundle, and by ar
rangementL after the train started he threw
it in,' and I fan , after and jumped on the
car. If- compelled to buy a ticket, it would

-" 'Triton piseipline in Pennsylvania:
The, forty-sixth annual report, of the In
specters" Of- the Western Penitentiary of I
.
Pennsylvania contains the 'following:
"The combined system of congregate and
separate iniprisonment,, as recently inaugit
tated• in the manegerne,nt c,f this penitentle.-
_
has thus far worhad to our entire - antis.
-faction. The convict's prison life is -a gra
ded one, hia promotion depending - entirely
upon himself. When he enters the prison,
he,is- placed in the , firat or . loWeat grade of
privilege's, 'in the solitary tell; and then,
stet?- by step, tts - he shows himself worthy, ,
he twadvaneed, until he reaches the highest
-point of. honor and trust in the institution;
among which are , attendance epee the
church and Sabbath school services, the
"day school exercises, the congregate work . -
shop. and the Coveted benefits of the 'coot,
mutation' law. For uirsbtlittvior` he; goes
back, 'on'the downward scale, -to the place
of beginAing... Hope is 'ever placed before
hint as a beacon light to' lure him-on to a I
useful, honest, and industrious life .when ht!
shall have returned to tbelworld., The treat
ment of the convictwhile in prison is that
of firmness combined with kindness, an ex
acting compliance with exl i isVng regulations,
and yet a tender solicitude, for his' well-be
ing. The government of the prison is in
tended to be of a broad and uncompromis
ing character, unprejudiced id its execution,
and free froth even.the appearance of par
tiality; -never influenced by either fear or
favor, and by its very inexorable character
commanding the respect of all concerned."
The number
,of- prisoners in confinement
on the Ist of January was 461, and the In
_
srectora say:
' ".Of those received in 1872 there were
white males, 167; white females, 2; colored,
males, 12; total, 181. • Of these' -91 were
born in Pennsylvania, 49 in other States,
and 41 in foreign countries. Of the whole,
no were never apprenticed to any trade,
10 were apprenticed and left, and 86 served
apprenticeships; •60 had parents living; 58
have Parents dead; . 39 have mothera living;
29 have fathers living; married, 74; unmar

The Postmaster General has issued an ad
vertisement for postal cards. It is intended
to have them ready by May Ist. It is esti
mated that 100,000,000 will be used the first
year. 'll
Washington gdssipb are circulating a ru
mor to the eflect that Vice President Wil

and accomplished young lady, a resident of
the capital.
The Marchioness Patrizzi, a Catholic lady
in - Ronle,.has pitted herself against Mrs. I.
B. Gould, an American Protestant lady; in
an attempt to establish free 'schools for chil

a dinner to the children . over the' latter.—
Between the two the little Romans stand
