- Thesteatner " Stonewall" was burned
on the Mississippi, 27th-ult., and over
200 persons lost their - lives. Nobody `to
blame.
Gov. Geary has appointed Hon. 1 4 .
C. Brewster, of Philadelphia, Attorney
General of the State. Judge Brewster
is one of the ablest Jurists of the time,
and the appointment does eredit to the
Administration.
Those papers now,advocating a repeal
of so muchof the el!ction law as puts
the township elections on the 2d. Tues
day of October, are at fault. Them
thould be but oe election a year—we
would have but dne in four years were
it for us to say. he I present law saves
the Commonwealth not less than $5OO,-
MOO a year. Better so alter the Consti
liution,, as to elect State . , county'
and .
township officers no oftener than we
elect a President, and the Judici
ttry out of the arena of partisan poli
ties, giving it to the_Executive to eon-
Etitute, as of old. Perfection is unat
tainable ; but the present system is
about as bad as it can be.
t4Ve see it st ted that Gov. Geary had
made himself unpopular with the lead
ing men oft e party, and that is used
to account for t his receiving fewer .votes
than Judge Williams. Geary's major
ity is, 4,898, Williams's 8,799. 'We do
not know that it is true that Geary bad
made himself very unpopular with the
leaders of his party. We do know that
many a man who expected a place un
der Grant and failed to get it, was cool
toward Geary. We also know that
Geary's known connection wi - h the
, temperance movement damaged , him
with the German Republicans, to some
extent. We conceive that these facts
account sufficiently for his lessened vote
as compared with William's.
The time is at hand when the efforts
of good men must be united to resid,
present and threatened evils. Tie
movement in the West to exclude tLe
Bible from public schools is significant.
We doubt the propriety of making tLe
Old Testament, as a whole, a text book
in Schools; but the New Testainelit
ought to be continued. When it be
.
comes dangerous for children to read
may
asTestament, the religious world
as well adjourn further proceedings.--
Free Inq'tiiry, free thought, and free dis
cussion - are man's -pioneers to glory.--
Banish them at your eternal peril. And
here, and there, and everywhere, are
men quarreling about nOthing t while
the greatest enemy of civil and relig
ious freedom• is marshaling Its forces
for the final struggle.
THE GAMBLERS
•
Doubtless Messrs. Fisk, Gould, and
others of the wholesale gamblers who
it:lake — their headquarters in \Vall-st.,
regard the dapper gentlemen with much
jewelry and not much conscience, who'
allot the Conerlsland Sands and the
Erie smoking cars, with
.contempt.—
The burglar a,ho Inn.>
(1 reds of pounds of silver plate, or
bed a bank of a million or two, would
not associate with a pickpocketor sneak
thief,.We suppose. In the palmy dad s
of honor in the South, he who had
killed and maimed a dozen men in
single combat, regarded the hero of a
single duel with IV species of contemp
tuous pity.
But whether the three-card-monie
men who stick their tripods on the
sands of Coney Island during the sear,-
on, or hunt out greenhorns daily in the
Erie smoking cars, are better, or worst!,
than the gamblers in gold who lately
upset Wall-st., matters little. The .dif
ference, if any, is of degree and not of
kind.. There are gamblers and gant. l
blers—you know . ; and it is not worth
any man's while to waste words or thee
In classifying people who turn up every
where, and generally where least looked
for.
And so it has come to be dangerous to
call men and things by their right
names. The genteel swindlers who do
business in marble halls in our large
financial centers—we allude to a clans
of brokers and adventurers—must be
called "operators," not swindlers; for
who has sufficient prescience to know
that some one of these "operators"
1- may not be his vis-a-vis when next be
frequents " good society"? ‘, Everything
is forgiven in the higher yalk&of life,
save poverty. Mr. James Fisk, Jr., as
a peddler of Yankee notions, and Fisk
the railway king, worth a dozen mil
lions or so, are different persons. Is
not that proposition clear enough? Yet
who has not a lurking suspicion that
Fisk, the peddler, was a better man
than Fisk the Wall-et. "operator"?
And 'now come Fisk & Gould, twins
in guilt and partners in the profits
tile,reof, and think to implicate Presi
nt Grant in the late Wall-st. crash.
We are glad to know that Gen. Grant
is implicated in that crash, though not
in the manner as suggested by Fisk,
Gould, & Co. The President did order
the• sale of some millions of gold, and
this brought the rogues of Wall-st., to
grief. It is noticeable that these chiefs
of the Gold Ring do not charge any di
rect connivance at the speculation to
Gen. Grant. It now turns out that it is
neeessivy • to implicate Mrs. Grant as
the writer of a letter to a Mr. Corbin,
of New York, in order to implicate the
President. But unfortunately for Fisk
and Gould, Mrs. Grant plumplydenies
writing any letter to Mr. Corbin.at all ;
and when driven to the wall, Mr. Gould
has uo better knowledge of the exis
tence of such a letter than irresponsi
ble hearsay. So the canard falls dead ;
but not until It has occupied Much time
in discussion. - Thus public attention
has been diverted from the criminals,
time gi:,.4d1,• and other defences
pro
pared. And that was all it was intend
ed to accomplish.
Let us see: Here is a combination of
men, whose avowed object is to grow
rig h at all hazards. To Unsettle values
is to oppress trade, and render the corn
usation of Labor insecure. To spec
ulate in gold is to unsettle values; and
_ every man engaged In the villainy is a
public enemy.' He shoi)id be outlawed.,
Men, regard the pettr,gambier , with
Cards or dice - with aversion ; but here
are men who stake millions upon the
chances of creating dist rei-s - E. 'lough in
the money market to enrich them sfmie
millions more. llow this Skirt of
gambling regarded 1):' the - world?—
What - penance must :Messrs. i"isk &
Gould perform in order to appear - in
good society with spotless robes? If
disk makes a million by bettitrg, on,tbe
price of gold a week bence,'how shall
he purge himself of the stain of gam
ing? Is there a College with virtue
enough to refuse him a degree on par
nidut of a•quarter of that million? We
guess • not. Is there a church, from
Borne up, with virtue enough to de,
flounce him from the pulpit, if he shaq
put a quarter of his winning into its
treasury ? 'We dare not promise it.
Is there a social circle, so pure and
hightoned, as to close its doors upon
Fisk, the millionaire, when he sends
his liveried servant to ring the bell ?
there be such a circle
,we will gt).l,
thousand miles to gaze upon its leaders,
at a distance.
Well: what of it? Very much in
deed. The age is inviting • damnation
in the mass. Wrong is wrong, no mat
ter where its servants and doers dwell—
in _Fifth Avenue or in Cross-st. Gam
is neither better nor worse be
cause die gambler stakes much or less,
uses dice, cards, roulette, or bulls 1 ,61 d
bears. Th& societies which taboo the
lesser and . fawn • upon the greater are
zushing toward hell at railroad pace.—
Little enough should that afflict us,
were it not that God's wrath, like His
rain, falls upon the just as well as upon
the unjust. You cannot pull down one
standard of right without inviting the
devil to raise the standard of wrong in
its place. You cannot grant anY man
an indulgence to. sin, for cash. That
was where Luther . assaulted Heine.—
That is where every reformer -assaults
the combinations of the ago. The age
is reckless rather than rotten, pagan
rather than Christian. There is a steady
and dangerous abberration in the moral
world. AVarice has overcome the
wrestlings of conscience; and while
true merit, and real goodness fail not of
their reward altogether, questionable
repute is forgotten, or overlooked, in
the prestige which attaches to a mil
lion. Bubbles are more buoyatit thea
solid, globes; and men are-more at
tracted by thatAhich may be impelled
by a breath, than by that whose im
pulsion is a result of labor.
—But, • finally, the authors of and
Apologists for these crimes of the age
are hastening to defeat. Wrong - and
violence may prosper for a season, but
-the penalty will be rigidly inflicted at
last.
NUTS TO CRACK!--By the hand of
Mr. Charles Venton, just returned from, Missouri,
are have a box of hiokory nuts, presented as sam
ples by our old friend, Mr. Benjamin Austin, Into
of Charleston, now of Hamilton, Mo. Tho size
of these nuts is enormous, and may be compre
hended only on sight. Mr. A. gathered 25 bush
els in one day!
On the 17th October David V . Ecker
son and Peter Stoken got drug togeth
er, at Pascack,-N. J. Eckerson killed
Stoken. Nobody is to blame!
On the 26th ult., Lawrence McDon
ald entered a low Saloon - in New yell:,
iit•pv-vy ariannken
sold McDonald liquor . enough to get
him beastly drunk and ugly, when
Mahnken drew a pistol and shot Mc-
Donald. And nobody is to blame I
On the night o the 23d ult., Joseph
Wood, of Rondopt, literally chopped
his wife in pieces; and then killed him
self. Wood had been on a spree fOr
some days. And yet, nobody is to
blame.
On the 9th October, two men
_n_ampi
Witherspoon and King, of La'Grange,
Tenn., drank together until dkunk and
then slaughtered each other With pis
tols. We do not bear that anybody is
to blame.
The Harr , isburg Telegraph is of the
opinion that the Crawford county sys
tem of nominations is vicious ; and the
Warren Ma& rejoices that its Republi
cans were wise enough to reject the sys
tem. As for any system 'without a viek
or disability we do not expect to see
one. But where the people have all to
say, if they cheat themselves who can
they blame? We are aware that where
the Crawford system has been fully
tried there Is about the same old cry of
corruption 'and management. But un
less the virtuous masses invite corrup
tion they are not In danger of being
corrupted. Let the people do the work,
and. then " thunder down their own
house" if they ,please. Men are never
too old-to play boy.
Mr. Sy lvanus Dunham, formerly of
this county, writes us a very interesting
letter from the Soldiers' Home, Dayton,
Ohio, under date of October 21, ult.—
We extract as follows
." The Soldiers' Home is , lOcated '5O
miles north of Cincinnati, on a rise of
laud overlooking the city of Dayton,—
We have several institutions connected
with the Home, all calculated to do.,
great good. The Good Templars meet
Tuesday and Friday evenings, tie Sons
of Temperance Saturday evenings, the .
Degree Tem plars alternate Wednesdays,
tiler°. A. R.; Monday evenings, and on
Thursday and Sunday nights we have
Prawer meetings. Our school haS 65
schiblars, 'One'colored. Miss M. J. Eaton
of Yankee Land, is the Principal, as
sisted by Mr. L. G. Brock, an inmate.
The classes in Algebra, Arithmetic,
Book-keeping, and higher English are
making commendable progress. A class
of eight is devoted to 'Telegraphy—the
Home being electrically connected with
the outer world._ We have a spacious
Hall where every Sunday morning we
meet at bugle call, for Sabbath, School
and service. Our Chaplain, Rev. Wil
liam Earnehaw is beloved by every in
mate, is a fine preacher, and a true
Christian. 350 persons take their meals
In our Home. Over 30 bbls of flour are
used weekly. Over 300 pies are set be
fore" the inmates , twice a week, hot bis
cuits three days in the week, cllfee ev- •
ery morning and?noon, and tea for sup
per. Captain Wpodruff, the Steward,
has a splendid statt:
"In the Home are 122 one-armed and
/59 one-legged soldiers. Five have lost
both legs, 15-are totally and 81 partially
blind. Yet these inmates have raised
over $4OOO for the widows and orphans
of fallen comrades this year. We have
a spaciousrehapel, a Music Hall, School
Room, Library and Reading Room,
where 60 daily and 150 weekly papers
are distributed. The grounds are being
beautified with shade trees and shrub
bery. The Home is indebted to Mrs.
Edgar Kinzie.-,
of Jackson, 'rioga Co.,
for a basket of flue greenhouse plants.
Everything that can render the inmates
Contented and happy is done by the
effacers command."

4 it is highly gratifying to notice the
evidence of retrenchment in the various
departments of - the Government at
Washington. The Custom Houses of
Philadelphia and New York are also
undergoing through reorganization ;
salaries are being cut down and all sur
plus assistants dispensed with, by which
act alone, thousands will be saved to the
treasury of the country. Let the good
I work continue.
THE New York Democrat, with all
the stunning emphasis of separate lines,
declares :
The Demoeratic party of the United
States is sadly in want.
Its wants are not numerous, but severe.
It wants brains. •
•
It wants honesty.
It wants pluck.
It wants unity of action.
It wants integrity of purpose.
Yes; and it wants votes and victories
but it can't get the articles enumerated
by thee. Democrat, it will not be able to
get the votes either.—Harriaburg Tele
graph.
How it blew crown East may bejudged
from the following item from the Portl.
land press Messers. Lincoln, .who had
a choice section of pine timber of easy
access, and that had beep estimated at a
value of fifty dollars per acre, have had
the whole swept down like grass before
the mower's scythe. Not one tree in a
hundred is left standing. This affords
evidence that there has not been such a
gale of wind during the last four hun
dred years. There are in it stumps of
pines cut for masts nearly 100 years ago
by the first settlers, that grew there qui
etly as shown by rings three hundred
years before. If cataclysms have a law
of periodicity, here is one element of
calculating the probable length of the
exemption we may hope for, at least
four hundred years.
In the same place the elms in front of
the old Lincoln house, so long admired,
were terribly torn, and willow trees
more than three feet in diameter, were
overturned., In East Machias, on the
hillside where the writer spent his
boyhood, were red-oak trees growing
singly on the open lands, trees that
were called old when the first settlers
came in 1765, that have now been torn
to mere stumps or overthrown.
