Among the hosts of worthy ltepubli
c;tns in this State who deserve some re
ward fur 'fidelity, are Hon. Galusha A.
urow and ex-Gov. James Pollock.
in many parts of the State, there is
a growing desire to have the former sue•
eeed the present copperhead incumbent.

Ills selection for this Lace would be a
ipwardJitly bestowed. He imbibed
:sterling statesmanship fr-,m that:origi
nal' fofintain of Republicanism, Hon.
David • Wilmot, dec'd, whose inanth
nopears to - have fallen upon his:, Ile
has been chosen to many important
oillees,„all of which he tilled with most
admirt,able fidelity. His latest position,
that/of Chairman of the Rdpublican
State Committee, has won for him
- fresh laurels. His effective and ardu-
Oils work previous to the October .elee
(ion aided immensely in insuring a
Republican majority, thus securing the
State for Grant—the State IN turn' se
curing his election. Therefore, in our
humble opinion, Grow should go to the
Seuate.—Letvisburg chronicle.
The Bradford Reporter says
" There is nci lack of good men from
Ahoin to select. the Senator. Many
gentlemen have been named who by
their talents pad integrity to Republi
can principles would do honor to the
State in that exalted pcisition. But of
alfthose who haVe been named, or are
likely to be pressed, none stand so
prbnilnent le, Hon. Galusha A. Grow.
His eminent fitness for the place, his
commanding h.lents, his stern integri
ty,-his devotion to principle, make him
pre-eminent amongst all the worthy
men named. The geystone would
honor herself by placing Mr.lGrow in
the Senate of the United States, and
her action would receive the unquali
fied and hearty commendation os the
best RepubMaus of the Union.
We have heretofore presented the
merits t and qualifications of Mr. GroW,
and shown how greatly be deserved the
confidence and support of the people.
We do not design now to eulogise him,
but to announce the fact, that the North
will support Mr. Grow as a unit, and
• will stand, by• him and earnestly urge
is election as a measure; due to this
b C Lion. Wre have a right to ask that

THE WORK nEronsr. CONGRE S.
Congress assembled Monday, 7th ink.
Beyond the announcement of thedeath
of several members, the customary cer
emonials on such occasions, nothing of
moment has been done. Not much will
ho done, probably, during the first two
weeks of the session.
There is, however, a great work be
fore the Congress now sitting. Tts term
expires at noon of March 4, 1869, and
its successor, though it may convene
immediately thereafter; is fiot likely to
sit long. Among ; ..She_ . matters which
tJiould receive the-earnest attention of
this Congress, the undoubted thievery
of Andrew Johnson's rev'ehue officers
takes the highest rank. SeCond may
be placed the condition of the South ;
and healthy freedom of speech nuclea
tion is al that Is'needed there. And
third, th financial situation„ s . 4_
There are thrlee modes of miring mon
ey to the Treasury. Ist—Let nll offici
als be paid salaries koportioned to the
labor and responsibility impoSed upon
them by their. positions. 2d—s9 order
that no one man shall get enougtlinoit
ey in his hands tO upset his head. 3d
Employ none, but m of unquestioned
competency, and ut4mished integri
ty. Perhaps the last Mode may be said
to cover the whole ground.
There is no question, that we are
aware Of, about the importance of " fit
ness" in a candidate for plebe. No ra
tional business man would employ one
totally ignorant of Book-keeping to
keep the books of his business. •No
Mechanic would employ a . man who
knew nothing about practical mechan- •
les, No intelligent School director will
hire a man or woman to teach a school,
knowing that neither possesies the first
requirements for the station. Yet• no
torious knaves have been picked up be
fore now, by some, political chicanery, '
and placed elbow deep in the treasury..
We pity the ass who does this, and
then makes a fuss because the fellow
steals. Men are seized up by Conven
tions and put in potions which they*
cannot comprehend, or if they could,
would not iiossess honor eribugh to
justly administer. *The
case
of
Judge ShaysWooa• - fracale in point.—
The number of cases , irf point are too
many to specify in a column.
Not, while political hacks and sharp
era shall be preferred • for places In the
_gift of the Executive, or in the gift of
his subordinates, will the affairs of - the
nation be rightly and economically ad
ministered. Such men care-nothing
for the - experiment of Self-Government.
Nor do they care for the reputation of
their superiors in place. Nineteen in
twenty of the distributors • of patron
age who come to grief, reach that dole
ful estate through the rascality or In
ompetency of their employees. Thus,
"t e gods are just; and of our pleas
ant - ices make instrument Ito scourge
us." tis one of the laws controlling
humitn - action that the higher power
shall bea , t in addition to its own sjns,
the sins of is Creatures. The man - who
selects bad en to do his work is es
topped from g \ umbling if the subordi-'
\ :r.
nates make a belch of it. The remedy
for the evil lies in \ requiring as good ev
idence of compete icy and honesty in a
candidate for posdtioiks under the Gov
erntu6nt as we do lb well regulated
communities in a candidate for a district
school. This remedy will, be found in
establishing boards of exatnination; be
fore which all applicant.::, shall be re
quired to present thernseNs, and from
which they shall each belintitled to a
certificate of such grade as they may
merit.
The second work for this Congress re
lates to the security of the citizen,
wherever he may elect to reside. It is
time that the theory of free speech and
security of the person was reduced to
practice In every State of the Union.
Dueling—the relic ()flu barbarous past,
and in this age practiced only by eow
ards—and assassination must be made
capital crimes. Men caught in the act
of lawless depredation must, be handed
. over to that swift justice which follows
upon tlic \ track of outlawery. The men
who now disturb the peace of the
South have no rights known to law, or
born of justice. As the dri l l pbwer is
,overawed where violence is permitted
pp run its course, so the punishment of
Crime should be summary. It' is use
liess to employ armies to arrest crimi
nals and hand them over toa Nv'eakju
diclary. That Is onlY 'prolonaing - the
agony.
The next, and by Many regarded as
the most pressing duty of Congress, 13
some adjustment of the finances which
shall bring the nation back
. W its nor
mal condition in that respect. Finance
constitutes one of the most difficult and
delicate subjects of legislative action.
One thing is well ascertained—that the
laws of trade are mote powerful in their
operation, and more nearly independ
ent of legiblation than any other.known
. to political-economy. `Titers have been
manytrtinkers of Finance and few mas
tery. llr. Greele2,..insists upon a forced
return to specie. payments. ";Thy only
way to resume,° says he, in his tr,mr
chant way, " to resume." That tray
be, but we don't believe it. We do not
believe that any violence whatever can
be used in adjusting so delicate machin
ery as that which pertains to the opera
tions of Finance; A return to true val
ues is desirable. An immediate return
Is not possible, twangy we have not the
specie -requisite to meet the demand
which would - ens e. , belieVe, how
ever, that If thetGovernment would re
ceive greenbacks, in payment of ctll
dues, includingdutiee on imports, prac
tical resumption would be reached in
the natural way. So long as the Gov
ernment discredits its own paper, even
in. one particular, it is not fair to ex
pect- the realm of Trade to do better.
,The Government requires no gold in its
operations save to meet the interest on
that portion of the debt held, abroad.
R I might begin by requiring fifty per
dentum of all import duties to be paid
in gold, contracting by safeliegfees, un-'
til the distinction now existing between
gold and greenbacks should disappear.
The mania for gambling in gold cannot
be cured in a day ; but when the Gov
ernment teases to sell gold in market
there will be one operator less in Wall
Street. Perhaps it was justifiable to
compete N'vith stock gamblers when it
was ordered. , It is not justifiable now.
The government ought no longer to set
so pernicious an example before the
people.
We are aware that Finance is a diffi
cult subject. Tinkering the finances
ought to be abandoned. It there be a
plan for putting greenbacks and Na
tional Currency on a , par with gold,
without violence, we hope Congress
will take it into consideration and
adopt it. We have ranked this . work
last in the schedule of Congressional
duties, and for the reason that it seems
to us certain that the laws of trade will
do as much as congress can do to bring
the finances back to their normal con
dition.
Petitions to the Legislature, asking
that the provisions of the uct prohibit
ing the licensing of the sale of intoxi
cating drinks in Potter bounty, ap
proved April 1866, be extended to Tio
ga County, are already circulating, un
der the auspices of the Temperance or
ganizations of the County. We hold
in this matter that the majority should
rule; and if a majority of the people of
the county ask for prohibition the Leg
islature is bound, in right, to grant it.
That a prohibitory law can be made ef
fective in the State at large we do not
believe; for not a majority of the peo
ple favor it. But it has been made of
fectivo in Potter cclunty for many
years. If it can be xnade a majority
request in Tioga such a law can be
made of great and lasting good. Now
let us have a thorough canvass, with
fair notice to all sides, and be govern
ed by the result. These columns are
open to both sides, but nobody can
have more than half a column a week.
Gen. Cole, who shot Hiscock in Al
bany last winter, has been acquitted on
the ground of insanity. The ease was
this : While Cole was absent in the ar
my Hiscock debauched his wife. Cole
met the seducer in the principal hotel
in Albany and shot him dead, without
ceremony. The jury did not regard
Cole sane at the moment, and gave him
the benefit of the doubt. • .
Well—this is the technical view of the
matter. But why not ' make a clean
breast of the transaction, so precisely like
hundreds ;other, and say that no jury
of deceit men will ever render a ver
dict of guilty against that sort of offen
der? The law provides no adequate
remedy for siich offences as Cole aveng
ed. We have seen, somewhere, a charge
that the shooting was a cowardly act.
What, pray tell, was the act of the se
ducer? Let us hear no more about
cowardice when seducers are punished
as this man was by Cole. Such men
are outlaws, and should die.
"MANsFiELD---NoirMAL Scxooi.—A
correspondent writes : •• We had the pleasure of
being present at the closing exercises of the fall
term, at Mansfield, last Friday evening. The
entertainment was given by one half of tho Senior
class with the assistance of ten of the juniors,
elected by the class. The exercises were a corn- -
plete success. The pieces were recited sufficiently
loud and without hesitancy; some were original,
and reflected-much credit upon those who de
livered them. The senior class has just passed
through a thorough term examination with
credit to its members and teachers. The grist
that the Normal school will turn out next June,
is being thoroughly ground. On Saturday there
was a reunion of the classes of 67 and 68, They
were entertained with a dinner liy Prof. and Mrs.
Allen in their new house. Every thing passed
off pleasantly, and much good feeling was man
ifested.
"In the evening the Normal. Literary Soolety
held its session. Much interest was manifested
in discussing the question; "Resolved, that the
right of suffrage be extended to all without re
gard to sex or color." Decided by the President
in favor of the negative. A new corps of officers'
were installed. The society bids fair to be suc
cessful under the present administration. This
society stands first and best of its character in
the county, being incorporated, and having a
fine library, it is a valuable branch of the insti
tution. Before our departure we passed through
the Orphan School. This is under the charge
of Mr. Vine R. Pratt with Miss Sue Preston,
Miss Simpson and Mrs Etz, nesistants. Every
thing bore the appearance of work and good will
between teachers and pupils. We departed
feeling grateful that our State had provided so
good and comfortable homes of instruction for
her orphan children.
"Mansfield is surely growing. While" the
schools increase, and Mansfield becomes the focus
of education in northern Pennsylvania, the peo
ple are even in the race, and aro erecting better
buildings,repairiQg their side-walks, and waking
the town look more like business. "SAW."

The American Cooking Stove
All articles of Value and established repute.
don have their imitations. Manufacturers who
have, not the brains to invent or the enterprise to
establish a reputation for themselves, seek to
appropriate the inventions and reputations of
those who have. The American Cooking Stove,
for instance, has obtained a world-wide repute-
tion. Messrs. Shear, Packard & Co. have spent
seven years in improving and perfecting this
stove, till It is almost perfect as a stove, and
they have spent large amounts in advertising
; and bringing its merits before the people.
IThere have been numerous imitations of in ,and
they have been compelled to bring live suits
against different parties for appropriating their
patented improvements, all of which have resulted
in their favor. The ast phase of these imita
tions is one similar in design and almost an ex
act imitation of the name, only one fetter left out.
These spurious imitations are sought to be
palmed off upon the public as a genuine article.
This is in violation of their rights; and they
have commenced a snit to restrain the sale of
these fraudulent articles; and they propose to
prosecute all infringements and imitations till'
others cease from appropriating and imitating
their improvements.
