However, the most patient and unsel fish worker requires manifest results to encourage him on. To labor for a life time at a disadvantage, with little ap parent progress in the work of reform, and avoid hours of despair, requires a temperament of great activity, abun dant Hope, and assured philosophy. - 934 . ,6-I9 ~659 ~739 Let us look at the field for a moment. But the other day there was a hideous anomaly in our system of Government. It made us the laughingstock of the world,' Slavery in a republic , was an irreconcilable antagonism, a living, dis graceful lie. Sooner than the most sari ai guine of he world's reformers dared to hope,-th anomaly, that unmitigated evil, that living, disgraceful lie, was struck out of existence. We remember well when such a consummation was regarded as too rhuch for arvi man then living to hope forAuring "his lifetime; when it was held equivalent to the full est, reward for a century 0 work amid a storm of abuse: . 'Yet it came, early, without heralds, 4s an incident of war inaugurated by its mad advocates. The form of Slavery was buried while the air was split and shattered by the crash of artillery, and .resonant with the . shrieks of the maimed and dying.• Some men thought the wqrk done, and folded their hands for a millennial period. Jut Slavery was not represented In IT chattleization of men and women alone. Slavery is universal in its ap plication. The world is enslaved by its ambitions and degraded .by its appe tites. • There is Intemperance, like the hydra, reaching otit .and into every community. It must be fought now, rmd ever, until it is defeated and over thrown. The slavery of ambition can only be restrained, not overthrown ; be cause ambition, like will, Is not evil in itself. it is something in the nature of a natural force, to be directed and , apt plid to the work of human advance ment, not destroyed. ; But we did not set out in this article to denounce the slavery which exists in Intemperance and Unbridled am bition. There is still another form• of slavery not less to be deprecated and not less destructive to human progress. We allude to the slavery of Form and Custom. Theantire system of jurisprudence in this Commonwealth is cumbrous, and hostile to the ends of justice. It is lit tle but a mass of ' formsand customs which have only their age to recom mend them. Atteimpts to prune away these useless portions of the system have been made. with a degree of suc cess; but the . ' essential evil, the foun- Illation wrong, has never been meddled with. The tinkers of laws have wrougbt I much as he does who trims up his ap ple trees, and studiously ignores the borer-at the root. "Is it any of your ,business?" Yes, sir; it is our business. " You are not a lawyer." No, sir ; thank God we ere, not. Npt that a lawyer is better ',or worse than other professional men ; but lawyers never make good laws, save by inadvertence. 'We can see the hideous ness of form p much clearer because not enslaved bytthe technicalities of prac tice. Therefore, we speak withoUt par ticular bias — and without hesitation.— We repeat he system of jurisprn4enee in this Comaionwealth is loaded ,down with superfluOus forms, and shams. In stead of making the ends of justice easy to attain, these forms are in the nature of ob4ructions. A poor man cannot afford to demand justice in many cases ; a d the fees of counsel do not constitute the bar., Lawyers' fees n this State are not, so far as we can learn, exorbitant. But the single fact that civil suits, not in equity, may drag on for an age in the courts of first juris diction ; . another age In the court of higher jurisdiction; be sent back .o the court below to drag on another age; and so drag on, until the poorer "party. succumbs, and is laid out, dead under the load of costs. Nor is this the worst of it. • Under the present system the strong party can absolutely drive the weaker to the wall, in spite of the justice of his cause. It is but a question of time and cash in many cases. • The evil to be eradicated here is loose jurisdiction. Nothing is final as the law now stands. The plain tiff takes his case before a justice and is beaten. If possible he appeals. Per haps a rule to arbitrate issues. The award Is adverse to somebody, and that somebody caries it up. And so it goes on, no Court . having final jurisdiction, as it often seems, until one or the other party retires ruined. • The proceedings in criminal cases are still worse, both for the offender and the Commonwealth. A man gets bloody nose and takes the assailant 4e fore a Ju/tice. The Justice holds the defendant to answer in the Quart • r Ses sions. The District Attorney uts in the indictment; the Grand Jury re turns a true bill i and tho ca. goes to a jury. - the Grand Jury liCars only ex parte testimony, and makes its return according to that testimony: . Now •of what use is the Grand Jury? TheJus-. ties has heard both sides, and holds the party to answer... Why resort to ex .par teiiaminations after that ? Can a doz en and u half men 'Judge more juitly from ex parte testimony than one, or three men can after hearing both sides? The idea is absurd. The system is a costly bham, and ought to be abolished. In the first- place an ordinary ays►tult and battery ease Wtouid never tie car ried beyond the jurbAlietion of a board of three justices of the peace; and in the nest place, ex parte testimony should never, in any ease,. he compe tent,- save in making informations.— When a warrant issues both parties are entitled to a fair hearing. Having had it, the .next best 01 . 4 to do is to make the award of the Justices final in all cases of a common grade. EMI The avenues to the chair of justice should not be blocked up with nsele:a and absurd forms. Lop off the excres ceAces, good people, and you may pay off Alio State debt with thR savings in twenty years. You can do more than that. You can lessen your taxes meas- Oably every year. in civil suits let the parties submit to arbitrators with out appeal. leaving no appeal open save from the county Court to the Supreme Ciiurt. Why issue a rule to arbitrate unless the suitors agree to regard the award as final ? Why give to ex parte testimony a credit denied to a fair hear ing ? 'We propose to press this' upon the people, and through them upon the u r legislature; and if any of o cotem porarles care to go so much the bet ter. Tho Danner County Sia.

Grow in this county to about Its fullest extent. The merits and demerits of Mr. G row were-pretty fully discussed, not always temperately, or as we think justly, but, altogether, in such an am ple manner that the result will, prove beneficial. We regarki' the meeting as properly called, in proper time, and in proper manner. It was for the second day of the first week of Court—the day of all others when the county most fully represented. It was right to meet and discuss the subject of the U. S. Sen atorship with the people. We must de cidedly disagree with some of those Who spoke on the ,occasionthat the people canpot instruct their representa tives. If that be true, then representa tive government is a dead failure, and republics the vagaries of dreamers. But more especially do we disagree in this— that representatives should learn the wishes of their constituents ,by letter. No man can address separate letters. to his constituents, nor would they be an swered .if so addressed. We are aware that a government by the people Is a something not by any means realized yet. But the:work of then who desire the advance of civilization relates to Its-realization. The people 'must rule if freedoin ever reaches its better estate. The resolntion adopted, by an almost unanimous vote, Is fully as liberal as Mr. Grow could ask for. It expresses the preference of the meeting for Mr. Grow; and in that respect It reflects the wishes :of five-sixths of the Repub licans of Tioga county. One H. Rives Pollard, editor, of Rich mond, having published a scurrilous ar ticle touching a young lady named Grant, daughter of a wealthy F. F. V., the brother of the lady concealed him self in a third-story room opposite qie. office of Pollard'S paper, and shot said Pollard. " This was a few days ago. The act, like all assassinations, was the act of a coward, of course. The assassin ought to swing ; but he will not. He is aF.F. V. Pollard was a F. F. V. The sons of the F. F. V's. believe in, and practice, shooting on slight occas ions. However—we notice that the Copper head press is fearfully exercised about the murder. Iteannot.enoughdenounce the murderer. Gentlemen, why not canonize him as you did Booth? Do yon understand ? ' Under the head of " Dodging the re sponsibility," the Lycorning Standard, says now that we are trying to throw the responsibility of the " story " that Mackey would vote for Grant, upon the State Guard. Oh, no, Colonel, not at all. We only deny that the Agitator ever said that Mackey would vote for Grant, and leave the responsiblity where it belongs —to rumor. The Colonel says that he did not send us his card. All right.— Somebody, who knew his style, did send it, carefully enclosed in a marked copy of the paper in which the lie is given. Nothing makes us unhappy, Colonel. REPUBLICAN VIEXTIN . At a Republican meeting called to eet at the Court Rouse, Tuesday evening last, t eArst week of Court, Judge Veil was elected P e "dent, and G.
