The Y: sited States Senate adjourned its
c\tr, session without day last Wednesday.
of- its last acts was to direct an inquiry
ny a select committee as to the nature of
the relations subsisting between the railroad
companies and' the postal service of the
Government. This investigation is prompt:
,-.1 by -a combination ,of several railroads
threatening the entire discontinuance of the
1:()=1:11-car service to-day. We trust some
',:eient means may be devised to teach
he , c extortionate corporations that their
I:-mehises were granted and are to be held
int the substantial benefit of the whole
country.
The State Senate last Friday passed a bill
:showing the several Judges of the Com•
monsvealth half payfor life, if they retire
,)m office after attaining the age of sixty
and serving twenty years on the bench.
Tae passage of such a law is of doubtl
iety. Most men will admit that the
7 , l;blic • servants for whose benefit it is de
:ned are entitled to the most favorable
f•fqi , ideration. If we could feel sure that

the decision, holding that as wives can hold
property and do business independent of
their husbands, the husbands cannot be
held responsible for the
,Misdeeds of their
wives. John did not slander Janet, and if
Mrs. John did, she alone should sutler for
the words of her unruly tongue. The
Judge wound up his emancipation procla
mation for husbands as follows:
',"Clie chains of the past have been bro..

A Couple of Conundruths.
Editor Ali tator:-1 notice that in last
week's' Democrat Henry Sherwood has un
dertaken to set himself right befote the peo
ple in relation to the salary-grab. He says:
"It could not be done; they had to vote for
the whole bill, or no bill at all." How is
that? Was it not possible to so :intend the
bill that no extra compensation Elliciuld go to
the .members---4f they had been so disposed?
Again he says: "We hope in four years
from hence, when a ,Democratic President
will be inaugurated," &c. Will he be kinAr

The article referred to appeared as a lead
er in the Democrat. We don't know that
the late Congressman from this district is
responsible for either the logic or the rhet
oric of that journal. But whether be.is or
is not is a matter of the very slightest im
portance.
Respecting the substance of our corres
pondent's inquiries, of course it was per
fectly easy to amend the bill in the manner
indicated. Speaker Blaine found no diffi
culty in striking cut the back-pay clause so
far as it related to himself, and the way to
kill the whole disgraceful job was plain,
had the majority desired to kill it. But
they didn't. They wanted the people's
money, mid they took it; and now their or-
gans want to humbug the taxpayers into
believing that they could not prevent the
passage of the back -pay grab without "stop
ping the wheels of Government." But ev
ery man in the country knows this is all
bosh.
As for the second conundrum propounded
by our correspondent, we are glad an an
swer is 'not expecte.d from the Aorrxron,
for we admit the 'riddle is too deep for us.
We leave it to the late membdr and.the
"populous people" to solve at th,e , ir leisure.
The ; Chappionof the Innocents..
We said la 4t week that we had wit tl.l-4,
seen a. ppb4 journal which . defee,:..l the
Salary-grab of the last Congress, 4,1 d that
when we cameross one that did we
be carefill to mike the fact known. We
are non' called upon to announce that we
have found one apologist for the honorable
gentlemen who violated an explicit rule of
the House to vote $5,000 into their several
private pockets. There are several thou
sand newspapers in the country, represent
ing every existing shade of political belief,
and so far as we know theyi all join in con
bemning the' robbers of the Treasury—all
ut one. A. number of Legislatures have
placed on the statute books of their respect
ive States strong expressions of the -con
tempt
,and indignation felt by all honest
men for the $5,000 gentry—no matter; there is
one public journalist who says the Congress
men erred only in moderation—that they
didn't take more than half enough!
Of course the ingenuous reader supposes
that the man(who justifies Congre.ss in this
thoroughgoing fashion must be some " min
ion of the Administration"—some editorial
postmaster or assistant assessor, at the very
least. But be is not•anything of the sort—
"on the contrary, quite the reverse." -Elie
hand itches for no official fee; his mouth
waters for no official pap. He writes " all
for love, and nothing for reward." Of
course he does, for he is a Democrat of the
Democrats. In short, his Democracy is so
intense that he calls his journal, with ex
pressive simplicity, "Trim Democrat," and
every campaign he rallies the unterrified
Democracy of Tioga to the charge against
the corrupt and rotten Republicans gorged
with the spoils of office wrung from a long
suffering people who are groaning beneath
the load of unnecessary taxation,—and _ all
that sort of thing. But our .7?..iliocrat isn't
'rallying the Dom.v.reCY just at present. It
is in another line of business entirely. It is
defending the slandered innocents of Con
gress against all the rest of the American
press. Valiant Democrat! with such cli
ents; fortunate Congressmen! with such a
champion! We hardly know which to ad
mire most, the defended or the defender.—
But as we have already expressed our opin
ion of the former; we now print in full the
judicious remarks of the latter:
" The Sffibtown Index, the Mudhill Alle
gator, and ti legion of other newspapers are
mad because President Grant, his Cabinet,
the Supreme Court Judges, the heads of
Departments, and Congressmen have had
their salaries increased so that they may live
in decent style. All their blowing does not
amount to anything. A committee of the
Senate and House reported the appropria
tion bill, and' it passed. Some people ob
ject to it because the Congressmen did - not
strike ont the item'asto. their increase. It
could not be done; they had to vote for the
whole bill, or no bill at all, and that would
have stopped the wheels of Government.'
The salaries are not too high; not half en
ough. It costs the President more than his
salary comes to to pay the common expen
ses incidental to his house. It costa some
thing to give parties, receptions, etc.; con
sequently a hundred thousand dollars is lit-
tle enough. A second-class lawyer can earn
more than the Supreme Judges get from
`the best Government the world ever saw.'
Twenty thousand dollars per annum might
do. A first-class house at the national- cap
ital cannot be rented for less than twelve
thousand dollars a year; which is more
than the salary of Judge Chase comes to.—
Very many of the Congressmen do not re
ceive enough to pay their expenses while in
Washington. As it costs a large sum to live
in that city, ten thousand dollars a year is
little enough for their services. We hope
in four years from hence, when a Demo
cratic President will be inaugurated, that
the Executive will receive a hundred thou
sand dollars a year, and the other officials
in proportion. A rich and populous people
cannot afford to be stingy.',
We don't know that have any com
ment to make on this. We leave the Dem
ocrat to the tender mercies of the Towanda
Argus and the Bath Advocay, only begging
those indignant exponents of Democracy to
deal gently with the immediate organ of
the late (and last) Democratic member from
this district.
We cannot close, however, without con
gratulating the people on the glorious pros
pect in view four years hence, "when a
Democratic President will be inaugurated,"
and " the Executive will receive a hundred
thousand dollars a year, and the other offi
cials in proportion." There's a good time
coming, boys; wait a little longer!
OUR WASHINGTON LETTER,
WAsffncGros, March 25, 1873
t"eNATOR CALDWELL RESIGNED.
It turns out, after all, that there was truth
in the rumor regarding Senator Caldwell's
resignation. The first business of the Sen
ate on Monday was the reading of his resig
nation and its acceptance by the Governor
of Kansas, now at the capital. Instead of
any, objection being made, as some sup
posed there would be, on account of the
pending charges against him, the, accept
ance of the resignation by the Governor of
the State which sent him was taken as final,
.and all proceedings ansing from the charges
preferred against him as Senator were drop
ped at once when heono longer held thatpo
sition. It is no,doubt best that the case was
thus promptly ended without committing
the Senate to any doubtful position on some
of the,delicate questions involved. It puts
the seal of condemnation upon all corrupt
means of securing a seat in, that august
body. While a resignation under such cir
cumstances implies great fear of the result
of a vote, and seems virtually to be a- giv
ing up of all defense, it is alleged that the
object of it is to avoid the possibility of an
unjust condemnati i n on false testimony,
• _
and to enable hint to appeal to - the people of
_Kansas who know him and also his persecu
tors, 'and in another canvass will be better
judges of- his conduct and merits. His
friends allege that the MOrttia resolution
would have ,failed, and that the resolution
of expulsion would have had no chance of
a two-third vote, while others assert that his
friends had Tully canvassed all the them
hers' votes,.and found that escape would be
impossible.
FHE SPAIN
The most cheering news that LAS reached
us by cable from the old
,world for _some
time past is the unanimous passage by ,
the
Spanish Assembly of a bill. abolishing sla
very in - Porto Rico, and conferring full citi
zenship on the late slaves of that island.—
This is noble work for the young Republic,
rind will bring it into favor with neighbor
ing Governments.
It is to be hoped that in the near future
Spain will perfect the freeing Of - all her
slaves. Poor oppressed Cahn * . ill now have
something to hope fur, and our threatened
complications with Spain on her, account
will be averted. A Republic in Stain, if
: it
does not mean liberal and free government
in all her Provinces, cannot maintain a front
of consistency, and must soon fall to . pieces.
If there is persistence in according the rights
of a Republic to its republican citizens, the
Government will soon rally to its support
ma
ti
who have hitherto disbelieved in its
per anence. The Arbitrary manner in
win h Cuba hi long been ruled is a mock
ery of justice even undermonarchical sway,
and so soon as the subject can be properly
brought forward, despite the revolution
now going on there, sweeping reforms and
emancipation should be proclaimed. Then,
under a different regime, bloodshed and
revolution would cease, and Spain would
retain Cuba quite as long as she. shall de
serve to do so.
,OPPOSITION To RALLROAD ABUSES
There is a growing feeling among the
thinking men of this District in opposition
to the overshadowing power possessed by
many of our railroad corporations, and the
manner in which that power is abused to
the detriment .of industry and the general
interests of the cpuntry. The manner in
which discrimination in freights against
Washington is kept up on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, which is now within a
few short months of having a competitor in
the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad, keeps
the subject before our people. So , soon as
the tunnel under the city of Baltimore is
completed and a through freight line is es
tablished, the feeling may be allayed some
what by a large reduction of freights to this
city from Baltimore and Eastwood. The
difference between the market prices of this
city and Baltimore is a standing stigma on
the B. and 0: R. R., though it is doubtful
whether a part of it is not due to rings
among our dealers, who however I charge it
all upon the railroad.
CAPITAL ITEMS
The President has signed an order com
muting to imprisonment for life the sentence
of Charles H. O'Brien. All our city papers
have called for O'Brien's e4cution, and de
nounced the efforts to secured t commutation
of his sentence, but the PreSident, to the
credit of both his head and heart, serenely
pursued the course indicated by his own
well-considered judgment,
Tom Wright, the alleged murderer of
Roguski, a•-?ew peddler of this city, was
arraigneil for the crime on Monday. In
this case a 'few dollars of money was the
motive, and not the hot blood caused by in
suit and recrimination, as in that of Ol-
Brien.
The Marshall House, a hotel in Alexan
dria noted as ;the.:place where one Jackson
murdered Col. Ells*Orth and met his own
death almost intrnedlately afterward, was
sold at auction on Saturday for $5,000.

The Local Option Decision
As already announced, the Local Option
law has been decided by the Supreme Court
to be constitutional. The opinion of the
majority of the Court is very long, but the
following is a substantial statement of its
points
i
Th Judge said it was an admitted cardi
nal p inciple of goverqment that the Legis
latur , which is the agent of the people,
cann t delegate its legislative power to any
other,p - ason. But what did the Legislature
in this instance do? It passed a law pro
hibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors in
the Twenty-second ward, and provided pen
alties for breach of its requirements. Thus
it was a perfect law when it left the Gov
ernor's hands; the vote of the people did
not make the law, did not give force . to any
prohibition, did not create a penalty, but
was simply an' opinion upon the law, their
sentiments and wishes in regard to it.
Such a vote might be useful in ascertain
ing the utility or advisability of a particular
law; and when the Legislature simply calls
to its aidthe vote of the people to ascertain
their views; it acts strictly within its proper
sphere. The case of the Commonwealtli
vs. Parker did not decide this question, for
there the law was imperfect in that it was
not mandatory until after the popular deci
sion, but the present law was perfect when
it left the legislative hands. The law did
not spring from the - vote,. but the vote
sprang from the law. To say that a law
resting upon a future..contingency is invalid
would be to rob the Legislature of the pow
er to act wisely and, Though
for the best inter
ests of the'people. hough the Legislature
cannot delegate the power to make a law,
yet it can make a law and delegate the pow
er to ascertain some particular point upon
which the action of the law itself is to de
pend. The Mayor and Councils have dele
gated to them thb power of making laws
and ordinances; but- this was simply the
power to determine what is best for the
city, and the charter of the city was the
law which breathed life and force into the
result of their deliberatiiins. , The decisions
in this State since Parker vs. the common
wealth ruled this case. After citing nu
merous authorities the opinion closed by
affirming the judgment of thecourt below.
DISSENTING OPINION
Chief Justice Read and Judge Sharswood
dissented from the majority opinion, and
the Chief Justice read an opinion maintain
ing that the power of making laws Was giv
en to the Legislature, and by express words
confined to that body; the correction of
hasty and unwise legislation being provided
for by the vetoing power, vested in the Gov
ernor; awl the Legislature could no ,thore
delegate its functions than the judiciary.—
This law, the Chief Justice thoughti'had no
force or vitality until voted..upon; it was
enacted, not by the Legislature, but by the
voters. This was permitting a' portion of
the citizens to inflict upon another portion
uncalled for punishment and pnWonted pen
alties. The population of the city,' already
large and rapidly growing; is sufficient to
show that a prohibitory law cannot be en
forced here. For these reasons the act was
deemed unconstitutional.
If this was constitutional why could not
the Legislature devolve this power upon a
minority? If they could delegate it to a
majority they could delegate it to a minor
ity.
. •
In referring to the prohibitory law of
Massachusetts the Chief Justice said it was
notorious that liquor could be bad in every
hotel, restaurant, and oyster saloon in Bos
ton. The law is in fact a dead letter there,
the evil being to encourage deception, fillse
hood, and fraud, and to accustom citizens
to a daily violation of law. Messrs. Renter
& Alley, of Boston, are the most extensive
brewers in the Unite States, producing
118,000 barrels of ale per annum. In Mas
sachusetts the people were spending two
ppunds sterling 'per head per aunutn on
strong drinks, in face of. the Maine liquor
lain. "'Ve are all for the Maind law," said
a man to Mr. M'Rea, " but we are agin its.
enforcement."
The brewers in . Philadelphia produce 600,-
000 barrels of malt liquor annually, giving
employment to nearly one hundred thou
sand men, and consuming in the manufac
ture a million and a half bushels of barley
of the valme of $1 10 per bushel. Ale is a
healthy liquor, and lager beer is a favorite
beverage; particularly of our 'large German
population. The question of license or no
license is to be submitted to the citizens of
M=EMOI
Philadelphia at the next general elbbilobi
and if the vote is against liCense then the
city will be under a prohibitory liquor law
- during the whole Centennial Celebration,
to which we have invited Me whole coun
trY. On the 4th of July;-1776, every patriot
drank to the independence of the-thirteen
States. Shall it be that on the 4th of Jiffy,
1870, all we can lawfully oiler to our guests
on this great anniversary will be a glass of
Schuylkill water seasoned with, slump bf
Knickerbocker ice?
I am a strong believer in temperance; for '
twenty-five years of my life I drank noth
ing but water, but a dangerous illness made
a strong 'stimulant an absolute necessity,
and by the advice of my physician I am
obliged occasionally to resort to it. Some
of my friends older than myself have drank
wine all their lives, and are temperate men.
I believe in moral suasion as the true means
of advancing the temperance cause, but I
do not believe in a prohibitory law which
would recline us to the condition of Boston.
- JIIDp, BFLARBWOQD'Et DISSENT.
After the dissenting opinion of Chief Jus
tice Read, Judge Sharswood made the fol
lowing remarks from the bench
I concur in the opinion that has just been
read, and I do not know that I have any
thing ,to add. The result of all the authori
ties on this subject, which I don't under
stand to be denied, is that it is not compe
tent for the Legislature to delegate the law
making power. The point of discussion
seerq to turn upon what is a law.
It is clear there are a great many things
which the Legislature can do, and which it
is in the habieof doing, and which consti
tute acts of the Legislature, which in the
sense of Parker vs. the Commonwealth are
not laws. There are a-good many acts of
executive administration which they can
delegate to the courts, or to the municipal
corporations, or to the people of the differ
ent districts; but a "law," properly speak
ing, is a rule (if conduct prescribed by the
supreme power of the State, commanding
what is right and prohibiting what is wrong. -
Now I think no one would doubt, if the
Legislature wer, to submit to the people of
a county, or township, or ward, the ques
tion whether murder should be punished by
imprisonment only, and let the penile vote
"capital punishment" or "no capital pun
ishment,' that would be a law, and the Leg
islature could not delegate it to the people.
Does a law such as the one before us differ
from this? Is it any less a rule of civil con
duct than that would be? It seems to me
that the question of whether there shall be
license or no license is a rule of civil con
duct, commanding what is right and pro
hibiting what is wrong. It leaves to the peo
ple to decide what is right or wrong.
The cases that are cited a,s, overruling
Parker vs. the Commonwealth are not of
the character to which I have referred;
they are mere acts of executive •administra
tion. It was left to the people to determine
by vote where the county seat should be.—
That could have been left to the County
Commissioners to determine, or to the
courts, or the people. So the question of
subscriptions to railrotid stock. It is not a
law. So whether part of the surrounding
country.shall be consolidated into the city,
so with she location of public buildings.—
So the school tax might have been left to
the School Directors. These are all acts of
executive administration, and therefore not
law in the sense in which the term is used
in Parker vs. the Commonwealth, and in
the sense in which it was decided that the
Legislature has no power to delegate its au
thority, as I think is done in this case. -
-ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST.
Southern papers are beginning to urge the
removal of Jefferson Davis's disabilities, so
that he may be sent to Congress.
The free-traders are trying to tura the
farmers' leagues in the Western States into
associations to be auxiliary to their ends.•
There is some talk of forming a new
State, to be called " Alleghany," out of
western North ,Carolina, eastern Tennessee,
and southwestern Virginia, with the capital
at Knoxville or Chattanooga. The territo
ry thus described consists almost wholly of
mountain land, and the new State would be
the Switzerland' of America. It would be
immensely rich in mineral deposits.

We must look to the Senate and the Gov
ernor to guard the State from improper and
hasty legislation this session, for the House
seems tyv have completely lost its head with
in the last few weeks. 13eglnning by voting
to the members $1,500 apiece for the ses
.sion, it has since entered upon a reckless
course of passing private and special bills
that cannot be excused. There is a grand
rush upon the Legislature by people and
corporations who fear the restrictions of
the new Constitution, and the House ap
pears to have little power of resistance.—
The Senate happens this year to contain
many upright and independent members—
so many that unrighteous legislation has but
a poor chance to get through. Beyond the
Senate sits the Governor, who is manifest
ing a very whole Some disposition in regard
to special and partial legislation. He has
14tely been sending in several vetoes per
week, and many bills have been recalled for
alnenduaent when it was found tlathe wo'd
, not sign them. By this course Gov. Hat ,
tranft is winning the good opinion of the
people, who already look to hint to defend
the integrity and' honor of the Common
wealth. We do not believe that he will
stand in the way of any just or needed leg
islation, and he will be able to prevent the
enactment of much that is evil until the
new Constitution shall : establish a perma
nent barrier across the path of the comp.
tionista.—D9yla9tozon Intelligencer.
