James - 11.1, Webb, of that co
Speaker of the House.; If the

Webb on the ground of his/opposition
to the railroad bill of last - session s that
is its privilege. In thill; section we do
not 'esteem such a - tru alifleatlon essen
tial./ - peopl,/of the State want its
great interests/developed, and we are
not disposed/to put any obstacles in tlie,
way.
tonfdderable noise has 'been made
ovelthe appointment of J. I:toss.--Bnow
len as,Clerk Of the , Supierne Cond.—
Afr.-SnoWden is a Democrat`, and it was
allege'd . ' that he'wes hi complicity with
the naturalization frauds a year or two
ago. It strikes us that he Supreme
Court is able to deterna e matters of
this kind for Itself. T Judges know
h t
whether or not Mr. Snowdeir. Is a fit
person to act as its clerk, and its deci
sion, it seems to us, is matter of discre
tion, 'not impeachable for error. No
partisan. opinions should be allowed to
enter into the determination of f such
matters. 01)r highest Court shotild be
above such things.
We call attention to an article pub
lished on the first page of this paper,
giving an itecount of the organization
and working of thE(Wellsboro Graded
School,: Our village has reason to be
proud Of the success attained thus far ;
and we are assured that .the people of
all other sections of the county will .be
glad to know that the county seat af
fords so good facilities for the education
of her youth of all classes, and at pub
lic expstdse. The humblest child has
equaropportunity with all others. in
the course of a very few years, we ex
pect to seel a school building 'erected
here which shall ,be a credit to the cou n
ty. Iteavy bodies move slowly, but the
is welt begun ; and the interest
manifested by all our citizens iu this
effort, we think insures its final and
complete success. The chief object of
tile school fs to educate the children of
Wellsboro and its vicinage; yet pupils
will be recekled from other places, and
the best advantages will be allbrded all
for a symmetrical and thorough educ
tion. •
From the report of the Principal,
published in another column, we think
we may say no similar school in the
State shows a better ratio of attend
ance.

Chief of the Bureau of Statistics, the

It will thus be seen that our ratio of
immigration is fully restored since the
war.- The number in 1869 was larger
than in any previous year during the
history of the goveknment. ,
IThe pr a ctice or "settling" crimes
which the law doss not permit to be
settled, has bcome so common, and the
effect upon the morals •of the eornmu--]
nay are so damaging, that wo deem it
our duty to call public attention to the
subject.
It is a_very common practice for melt
who ' have committed some Infamous
crime, to quiet the party injured in his
feelings or estate by "theft bete," as it
is called in the Common Law. It is
now sometimes called " smart money."
A criminal, It frequently happens, is
clearly guilty of larceny ; the evidence
Is clear ; the person whose goods are
missing commences a prosecution, res
olutely determined to make an exam
ple of the offender. In the eyes of the
prosecutor, the I crime is an outrage
against society, and public
_security de
mands that the criminal be brought to'l
justice., He urges that there is no force /
in law, i unless it be carried into eitecu ir =
tion. dut& as a citizen canstrains
him to; become a prosecutoKand henna'
dertakes it ail, with the;expenses
inci
dental, very cheerfully. It may be a
disagreeable duty,vbut the laws must
be obeyed, and fin. his own part, he is
willing to sacrifice his' personal inter
ests and feelings for the public good.
Thus*, reasons till the defendant is
caught by the constable, on' a warrant;
issdedi not in his own nanitt but in the
,dame of the Commonwealth ; and then,
as he tAees before him the outcast who
could be guilty of such a crime, the
first question he usually asks is, "What
has become of the goods, Money, pro*
erty ?" as the ease may be. The thief i
seeing himself fully cornered, and be
holding a distant but fast approaching
glimpse of iron grates and the life of .a
convict, is at once very condescending.
He has the goods -all safe, 'and they
shall immediately be returned to the
injured prosecutor. It is his first of-5
fense: he intends never to do the like
again.
FM
The prosecutor is not satisfied to let
the poor
. creature go', on." restoration of
the . goods "merely. ifn,sirch case, what
becomes of the majesty of the law ?
Would it be consistent with his duty as
a citizen of a great Commonwealth,
whose laws have been outraged, to per
mit the offender to go ? Never ! The
sovereignty must be respected ; the in
terest of all the people is more than his,
who is but a unit of infinity, a drop of
water in the ocean, to all the good peo
ple of the State. No, no ; it will never
do. The laws must be vindicated ; cri
minals must be brought to justice : he
cannot permit the culprit to escape the
just punishment his crime deserves.'
Such is the case of the prosecutor, as
stated in eloquent and glowing rhetoric
by his learnbi counsel, in whose per
son, as he stands before the bewildered
Justice, expounding the laws, (I. e.,
pounding with his doubled fist on Par-.
don's Digest or the last edition of Binn's
Justice,) all the majesty, dignity and
sovereignty of the Civil, the Common,
and the Statute law, are centered, at
that-particular time, ,and at that partic
ular place ; and the poor creature who
sits trembling in such a Presence feels
that his dayThfjudgmelt has come, and
that he is about to ifte-sallowed bodily
by the Justice, the constable, the prose
+Ur. iteirOUS 111 his
offense,, and so powerful andiall-devour
ing his adversaries, particularly the at
torney, who, he imagines, has but just
risen from a banquet made on the mus
ty and bulky volumes of Coke and Jus
tinian.
Something must be done. About,thie
time the constable taps him on the
shoulder, and gays, with a? air of su
preme authority, " You are my man :
come with me." Nearer and nearer
come the prison bars ;"—he almost hears
the heavy iron door slammed together
with a bang, by a hideous mortal, with
.a look like a hangman, called the Turn
key. In despair, he cries for help. He
is docile. He is willing to do anything
for dear liberty. Will Mit the prosecu
toll relent? If he will, he will agree to
legve the country and never be seen
again. .. .
" This," the practical attorney sag- 1
gests to the prosecutor, " is the time to
broach a settlement. The defendant is
now in a mood that he may be expect
ed to have a reasonable appreciation for
the injury he has done one of the most
substantial and highly respected citi- .
zens of the Commonwealth."
They approach the poor fellow, and
the attorney says, " The majesty of the
law must be respected." " Yes," says
the prosecutor, " I always believed
that : ' The majesty of the law remit be
respected.' " " And the supreraitcy,
and power, and authority of the laws
and government under which we live r
must be, recognized and, submitted to
by all," adds "old mauler," as the
boys about town style the attorney.?
At this juncture, the criminal has
coneluded that " the laws and govern
ment and authority and supremacy,
sovereignty and all, must be respected."
Then Mr. Attorney says : "H o w
much?" and he swells out to the size of
three aldermen, as he puts the ques
tion, " Remember it is not for the
goods I am:prosecuting you," puts in
the prosecutor. " Counsel fees"—
" Yes; and I cannot work for a trifle,
in a case involving, as this does, im-
I ortant legal, political and governmen
tal questions, to the study of which I .
have given all my life," chimed in Mr.
" Mauler." ,
" And Joss of time, and injury to orie's
? feelings;? besides all the ' fuss and trou
ble,"' added the prosecutor.
The defendant opens.his pocketbook
and counts over-his money. He has
enough to pay the costs, barely. That
will not do. Crimes must not be suf
fered to, go unpunished. Yet he has no„
oney. But he has a cow, and he can
will that; and then he has a friend who
will lend him enough to make out the
balance, and take his pay in work.—
Thbargain is finally closed at $lOO and
the osts.
,
It oes not matter what - Is the consi
deration, nor the extent of it : Such
an arra gement, by which the prosecu- '
tor agre s not to prosecute, for any val
uable co sideration, is an offense, and,
by reason f its prevalence, is one which
should be Inquired into ki every case.
It is prohibited by statute, in our State,
under penaity of a fine not exceeding
$lOOO, and Hsirisonment not exceeding
three years. ' tis time this practice was
stopped, and a 1 citizens are interested
in its suppress! n. Let it.be understood
\\
that there is no such thing allowable
as the settlement'of such matters. As

MANSFIELD. We take the following
items from a letter to the Elmira Advertiser, by
" Somebody" :
"Mr. John Murdaugh, our street commission.
er, has worked the streets and built the crossings
in a better manner than was ever done before.
" Mart King is turning off a car load of bed,-
steads per week, and from the facilities he pos.
sasses for procuring timber, he can make better
bedsteads and afford them choaperiban at almost
any other place.
" Elliott, ',Clark & Co., since they turned their
faetory into, a co-operative concern, aro doing a
first rate business, every one of the partners bo
ing equally interested in the amount of work
done, and the manner in which it is performed.
Of course More work will be done and done bet
ter. than where only one or two are interested.
" One night last week some burglars broke into
Mr. Kingley's boot and oboe shop, and carried off
about a hundred dollars' worth of boots and
Shoes. They were fools as well as thieves, or
they would have taken more from the fine stook
that Mr. tingsley had in his shop. No clue has
yet been found to the perpetrators of this deed.
