THE VILLAGE ,OF OUR C 1 Lai-mop.—
To one visiting afterlong years of ab
sence the village he left in childhood,
everything seems to have grown little
with years: its old, magnificent propor
tions have dwindled away ; the long
drawn avenue of other days appears to
have been shut together,like a telescope,
and the village has shrunk ill its valley
'lkea drikl filbert in the Shell. Th
village "creek"—for What old hamlet
was without it ?—isstraugelynarrowed,
and he wonders if theAvorld has indeed
grown so very old, and ,its:.lvery veins
are running dry;, and he faneieS. they
have been ".setting" - the'world over in
"Minion," and nature stereotyped in
great pica, and so now there is a pocket
edition of the village and the vale.

Tim magnitude of the grain trade of
Oblong . ° can be understood from the fig
ures of 1869. During this year that city
received 27,000,000 bushels of wheat, `2.3,-
000,000 bushels of corn, and 12,000,000
bushels of other grain. 600,000 barrels
of flour were manufactured there. The
city received, since Tannery 1 ; 1808,
about one billion feet of lumber, over

A bill to create the " Northern Ju

The Supreme Court has de.Cided the
Philadelphia contested dejection
sustaining the jurisdiction of the Co, ir t,
of Common Pleas, and refusing to en
tertian any case on the merits. Judge
Agnew delivering the . opinion says:
" These are itnportenl cases. They aro politi

reason to bo met in a spirit of candid inquiry.
The contest pf an election is a remedy given to
the people, by petition, for redress when their
suffrages have been thwarted by fraud or mis
take. The ,eonatitued tribunal is the Courtlof
Common Pleas, or the Quarter Sessions, as the
case may be. By • the act of July 2, 1839, and
February 3, 1854, the Court is to "proceed upon
the merits of the complaint, and dCtermine finally
concerning the same, according to the laws of
this Commonwealth." No bill of exceptions is
given to its decisions, nor appeal allowed, and
its decisions are final. Consequently the Su
preme Court has no jurisdiction over the subject."
These were cases which arose under
the election of iscs. They were heard
on writs of certiorari, upon which the
court could only look at the recorkand
had no authority to inquire into the

creating additional judges is destroying
the Symmetry of our JudiCial System.

A very Important tinuikial bill hits
passed the United States Senate, pro
viding for the • issuing of $45,000,000.-
1
National Currency, three per cent. cer
tificates. now held by the banks as a
reserve, to lie called in to that amount.
The object of this bill is to equalize the
circulation hy giving the West an op
portunity to supply itself with •eurren
cy, the establishment of National
Baulk. It. proposes also to draw $2O,-
000,000, fro the old States, which now
havejmore than their share of currency
issued to National batiks, and transfer
that also to the West. There can be
no doubt that the -I,Vest needs more
currency ; but it May be questionable
whether an act of Congress authorizing
the issue wilt aflbrd them the means of
obtaining it. f Capital predominates in
the Eastern thud older States; and un
less the profits induce the transfer of
capital, the West will yet be compelled
to earn the money before she eau buy
the currency by deposit of the bonds.
Still we are of opinion that, this' new
issue would soon be absorbed ; for we
are confident, that the profits of the
business of banking under our flational
laws won Id soon al tact the necessary
capital, and give to the West the means
she so much needs.
• We have the annual report of the
Trnstees ,and Superintendent of the
State Lunatic Hospital, at Harrisburg,
from which we gather the following
statistics for the year
The number of patients in the Hos
pital, Jan. 1, 1870, was 410—males, 212,
females, 198. The whole number. un
der treatment (luring the year, was b2B,
and the daily average 395. The num
ber of admissions was greater than dur
ing any previous year. The receipts
„from all sources during the )
year were
$91,438.78; Expenditures, .91, 359.17;
balance in Treasury, $79,61. The
Board ask lin appropriation of $20,000,
for the year. The Trustees very justly
speak 'in high term - of the perviees of
Dr. Curwen, the Superintendent, whose ,
eflbrts are• untiring in behalf:of the
poor unfortunates under his charge.—
This is one of the noblest of all the
great charities of the Commonwealth,
and no outlay of the people's money
can be prodnetive of a greater good.—
The Trustees say : "If all the- Hospi
tals in the Stale were tilled to their ut
most capacity, they could not furnish
accommodations for much, if any, over
one half of the insane now within the
limits of the Commonwealth, not tak
ing into the calculation the cases con
stantly occuring in every community."
Pennsylvania was the first to initiate a
system of treatment for the insane, in
- this country : not another year should
tie allowed to pass without making pro
visior for all these her unfortunate ciii
zens.t Economise in every other direc
tion if need be—we should ho more lib
eral than heretofore even, in this.
There' has been a good deal said
about the case of Dr. Schoeppe, who
was convicted of the murder
, ef MifiS
Steinneke by poison. It is alleged that
the
,conviction was wrong, and that
there is evidence, discovered since the
trial, sufficient to acquit him. A_ bill
was introduced andpassed both bremeh
es of fhe Legislature, giving extra
jurisdiction to the" courts in this ose.—
The
; Governor vetoed the The
SuPreme Court by a decision delivered
bY Justice Read, on the 14th inst., held
the conviction \ren , ular, and of course
refused to look into the evidence to ad
judicate uponl the merits. We do not
see how else it could/ hold ; for if there
is anything
, settled, the right and duty
of the Jury to determine, mid deter
mine tlinally, the question of the guilt
or innocence of a defendent who has
" put himself upon the country," is
established.
If,
hqwever, there be any reasonable
Proapect of this man succeeding in an
attempt to eAtbiWish his innocence, he
should by - some Means have a new tri
al, or go free Under a pardon. It is
bad enough for the Commonwealth to
put the guilty to death : I, t no doubtful
case should this penalty be inflicted;
and if evidence has been (IA
overed
since the trial, which would operate to
se
acquit this unfortunate man, emnroop
humanity and a decent tespect for
justice require that same relief be af
forded. •

A TRIP SOUTH.
LAWRENCLVILLE, Pa., Feb. 15, '7O
MESSRS. EDITORS :—Having just re
turned from a Southern tour, perhaps
my four months' experience' while
prospecting in Virginia and . North
Carolina during the last year, may be
of some advantage to some of your
readers. I vb.; ted Norfolk, Richmond\
Petersburg, Fredericksburg, Alexan
dria, Yorktown, Williamsburg, Dan
ville, and many other smaller towns,
spending most of the time in the tide
water' country of Virginia, where I
found a large amount of fine level
land. Many of the Plantations on the
rivers—particularly on the James—are
iieh bottoms, with magnificent resi
dences and snrroudings, some of them
for sale, and very desirable—others not
so much so. Located near low, swampy
ground, and having poor water, would
make it unsafe for a Northern •man to
settle. upon them, unless he wanted to
enjoy a powerful shaking with the
ague andfeveri three or four months of
the year. Richmond is fast recovering
from• the effects of the war. The OK
tensivp warehouses, mills, manufac
tories,'&c., near the river and canal—
the marble and stone fronts— togeth
er with the Frencri roofs, up town—
mostly built since the war, and the
large amount of business now done,
the different lines.of railroad, head of
navigation on the James rever, and the
canal, all centering there, are .sure in
dications for a glorious future for Rich
mond.
From Richmond, I took a trip over
the Richmond and Danville railroad,
running South-west, from Richmond
to Danville, distance, 141 -miles, stop
ping occasionally to look at the' coun
try. This road runs through south
side Virginia. The first 80 or 90 miles
from Richmond, the land is rather
poor—the rest of the way to Danville,
there are some very fine farming lands.
Danville is situated on the south-side of
the Dan river, four miles from North
Carolina, contains about 5,000 inhabit
ants, with four churches, two semin
aries, one flouring mill, one sawmill—
or excuses for mills—foundry and ma
shine shops, box factories, two print
ing offices, two banking offices, a num
ber of first-class stores, about twenty
tobacco factories—for the manufacture
of chewing and smoking tobacco—sev
en large warehouses for the sale of leaf
tobacco, at auction, selling• during the
last year, over mix millions of pounds,
amounting in the aggregate to over one
million of dollars. Danville being in
the center of one of the finest tobacco
growing regions in the world—produces
a kind of tobacco which sells at prices
varying from fifteen cents, to one dol
lar and fifty cents per pound, in the
leaf.
The Dan river at this place, presents
One of the finest waterpowers in the
State, having a fall of about twenty
feet, and afibrding plenty of water to
run a large amount of machinery,
otrerlng every facility for manufactur
ing upon a large scale. The inhabit
ants of the surrounding country are
very much in want of mills and fac
tories—or their Products—having to go
North for furniture, farming imple
ments, wooden ware, brooms, &c. In
fact, about everything used. in, that
country— except tobacco—co m es. from
abroad— while they have 'the finest
timber; and most of the materials, there,
to manufacture from. I saw flour for
sale in Danville, made in Milwaukee,
Wis. This-is the finest wheat-growing
region East of the Rocky Mountains.
Most of the corn -meal sold In Danville,
comes-froth -Baltimore and Richmond,
notwithstanding, fine' crops of corn can
be grOwn there: The surrounding

Ten ' miles west of ',Danville, com
mences a tract of country, known as
Byrds . Garden of Eden embracing
some 15,000 or 20,000 acres, Col. Byrd,
being one of the CoMmissioners em
ployed by the British Governaient to
run the line between Virainta and N.
Carthina, over a hundred years ago.—
Col. Byrd showed his appreela ion of
this particular locality, by taking up
14,000 acres of this land. It lies beau
tifully; is as near level as is cotisteut
with good drainage. Several, th, Usand
acres of it. are now for sale, with build
ings, fences, orchards, at prices varying
from $12,00 to $15.00 dollars per acre.-:
Here, some .of our Northern stock
growers might locate,_ seed their land
to grass, stock it with- horses, mules,
cattle and sheep, and sit in 'the shade
and grow rich, not having to be to the
trouble and expense of gathering fod
der, and housing and feeding their
stock, through the winter months.—
This together with the fact of cheap
transportation—being water from Rich
mond and Norfolk— to all the Eastern
markets, makes this one of the best
stock growing districts in the United
States. • •
The country is well timbered—oak,
hickory, yellow pine, chestnut and
black walnut, predominating. Well
watered, chiefly by springs of pure
soft water, and I can see no reasol why
it should not be as healthy there, as on
any part bf the globe. The railroads,
now in operation, and those being con
structed, with others in contemplation,
when completed and running, will
give South side Virginia and the border
counties of North Carolina, unequalled
railroad advantages. The people aro
courteous, social and friendly, and will
welcome the stranger, without inquir
ing his politics, country or religion.—
Persons traveling or settling in that
country—as in all others—will be very
apt to receive such notice and treat
ment, as their conduct merits. Some
of our people have the impression that
it is unsafe for a northern man to trav
el or settle in any of the Southern
States. This is entirely a mistake. I
have never traveled in any State; or
among any people,
where I was more
hospitably treated, or where, in •the
same length of time, I made so many
agreeable. acquaintances, to whom I
tender my grateful acknowledgements
for their many favors. W. B. M.
DRAMATIC.—Not every country town
can boast a theater. Those present last Wednes
day and Thursday evenings, at the first presen
tation by the Wel!shore Dramatic Association,
required no stretch of the imagination to con
elude that whatever town they were In, certainly
had ono; and if any-suoli wore surprised the fol
lowing mornings to find themselves in Welleboro,
nevertheless the impreiision still remained.
The Conrt House was full both evenings. To
us there was a degree of perfection in the manner
in which the nieces a iyera nresentol. wh ich we did
lo OA peat. Tv see. —tm-scenery is pro parnc
ularly " Tho Fleet at Anchor"; the appointments
about the stage are creditable to the industry of
the manager; and altogether, we think the com
mon' expression will bear us out in saying, that
the entertainment was by far the best ever seen
in Wellehoro.
Tho Association is fortunate in having had ono
who had seen much of tho ocean, to take 4he
part of " in " Black Eyed Susan";
f9rwo aro certain that no landsman could have
waded through the character and kept his head
naeo water, without a deal of floundering. Por
tions of this character were presented with fine
effect ; and if we have any criticism to make, it
would apply to most of the eharticlirs, and that
is, that the delivery was too rapid for effect. A
silent pause at tho proper place, is, many times,
most eloquent. "Susan" showed herself worthy
of the true sailor s When Enoch Alden bade his
wife farewell, ho said:
" Annie, this v}iyage, by the grace of God,
Will bring fair weather yet to ns all.
Hoop a clean hearth and a clear fire for me,
For I'll ho back, my girl, boloro you know it."
Susan's constancy needed no such admonition;
for the grace of true love within her drove it
back.
" A Regular Fix" was well done. "De Brass"
noted up to nature; and the query is, Waslit
real We are disposed to attribute his sucass
to a brilliant imagination, though this requires a
great stretch of the charitable, as it does not
seem that any one, in an assumed character, could
doze away so long in a chair with so many pretty
girls about. Of the girls, we cannot suffer our l
solves to make mention they speak for thorn=
solves. Was over a girl known who would not?
Wo will only say that girls generally excel the
other sex in donning character. And this is not
strange; for how can the 4reatures tell what sta
tion lies before them ? andi have they not there
fore a greater incentive toll cultivate a fitness for
all ?
• i
" Michael Erie" was so 4ell dono as to entitle
Mr. Bunnol to great praise. In some parts there
was something like overdoing the matter; but it
is that same assurance which enabled him to do
other parts so well.
nqw we have this to say upon the general
subject: There is nothing in the way of a rea
sonable success for this Association; and it yields
us all a far greater satisfaction than wo could re
ceive from the class of traveling exhibitions
Which go about the country, making great pro
tentiions. Wo hopo to see it a permanent institu
tion; and to make it such, it is only necessary
not to overdo the matter. A new ardor is apt to
make us all overstep the limits of a reasonable
moderation, in all things; and we hope that this
Association will take only such a stand as it can
maintain, not for a season merely.
" Miohttel Erie," "A Regular Fix, and «Boa
and Cox" will be repeated this ovening, (Wednes
day,) and we hope to see a full house.

The price charged the townabips, &0., for boaid
at the County House r upon estireate.lof the coat
per week for each pauper, is one dollar and nine
ty-four cents. This inchides everything expend
ed upon them—foo4, clothing, medicine, school
ing, &n. There have been at the County House
during the year, eighty-one paupers, and they
averaged over fifty-six during the whole year.—
A very hi;go number wore old, intirm•end
needing a large amount of care end attention.—
The cost of keeping the insancr 3 at the Lunatic
Hospital at Harrisburg, was $3 per week, besides
clothing and other expenses. The Commission
ers have allowed partial relief to paupers outside
of tho County House, on consulting with town•
ship and borough °Weer&
. The Commissioners would ray there still re
mains in the hands of the Collectors moneys not
coneeted, rand 0.-or-duo, which would reduce our
indebtedness at least twenty thousand dollars:
and if the space would permit, would publish
the names and amount.
