in the :Legislature,that - buffew of the -pa-,

and-we all know' that on its passage in One
bratieh of the Legislature, how furious many
of the so-called Democratic_ papers Opened
upon . the Republican LePlatUre,. and
charged it with fraud and direct Jobbery,
Sc. ; and how soon some -of these -papers
evenin the course of' a , day, became. c'not
only quiet, but thought it not a very -bad bill'
after all—that it would develogthei State;
Se.,t
and that there could . be no, - .91.ij, cliions to

change had been - Caiised by 41,
that our,
neighbor, Hon-F. W. Huglies,' was
the engineer in fixing up the bill, r to. bene
fit a body of land he: holds" in counties in
which the' road would pass through—and
they soon . discoveied that all the vulture con
tractors of coffee-colored naturalization pa,
*perS; and of murdeirnotoriety, to destroy tes
titi*y, -Which would convict them - of grOss.
fra as, had assembled at Harrishu rg, and that
these :i.9,500,000 was to, be taken from the State
Treasury grid placed into their hands. This
is what caused the wonderful and rapid•
somerset of ' these papers. We ictw a num
ber 4 these Men aPHarrisburg, and,on mak
ing inquiry we were told that if this money
pas4d but) their hands the State would
never again receive , one dolhtr ()fit, except_
theinterest for two years ' for which the
Pennsylvania Rail Road • COmpany. were
madeliable for in the till. That some of
the Republicans propably did and were to
receive a small sop for their votes to insure
its passige, we have no doubt.' This was the
Character of the-bill; and; all know front the .

came very prosperens, and Itii product in-.
- Creased from. pile:third to one-half, and
greatly exceeded the wants of its own popu-.
lation. It was thisslass of the community
.who a'ways adhered tiziNapoleen, while the
Cities generally opposed him`,' and it was
this class, also who, furnished -him the
money he Jequired when he appealed
to the people to take the loans, in
depent of the money changers; and It
is this class principally that the present
.Committee of Safety, fear will. elept represen
tativesopposed-to the . Republic,j . which has
caused them to. postPose'the elec tion of • rep
resentatives, fearing that a majority of those
who heretoforeer ? ustait*d NapOleon, • may
-elect representatives vote against
the proposed - R 40116. It is. '
among this
class also that the want of security to prop
erty, &e., under allepublie, prevails large
ly. Had Napoleon not turned traitor to all
his professions, trampled every liberal prin
ciple under his feet; except the ballot, and
assumed the purple,Yrance would no doubt
be to-day an established Republic, prosper-
ous and happy, because a Republic Is better
suited to the French -nation than any other
form e.rkiovernment, and the name of -.Na
poleon,lwas-a, tower of strength: . Even-under
his despotic gOverumept, he has through the
ballot, . greatly advanced the. Republican
ideaS among the people, and they are much
better prepared now for a. liberal form of
government than-they were when they first
elected him President of the- Republic' of
France. • • •
Those who have travelled in France; and
•
mixed among the people, are struck with
the frivolous and excitable character of the
French. Two persons may use a few exCit
hig words; in a short time a lime crowd will
flock there, and as the crowd increases the
•'gesticulation Increases, and ay -American
. would . Supposs there would belt grand row—
but_ str7ollicer approaches and taps- one of
the cinniattants.on
"the shoulder, when they
are instantly mum, and the crowd rapidly
disPerseOvithout uttering scarcely another - 1
word.
rf France had the ' best government in
Europe, a large portion of the people would
become dissatisfied with it, and..would work
fo;r a change. This portion never be
sat istiod with anything. If the Government
.is monarchical, they will work for a revo.
intiOn to overturn and destroy its :This is
the reason why the Middle classes and
'traders are satisfied with almost any kind
'of Government, and will not nuestivn. its
poWer so tong us it is stable and gives them
proteet:on. But
,such a Government cheeks
progress in liberal ideaS, and never will pre
4re France for a Republican e forta of Gov-
.Ornment, Which, in this age of progress, is
the ultimate destiny , of the .Governments
I all the_Nations -of fhe Earth.
• For't hese and other reasons we firmly be
lieve that, under existing, circumstances, a
Republican form of Government would be
much more suitable to France titan any:
other. It would be more congenial to the
people, and more in aecordance with the
prominent characteristics of the nation. It
would tend to destroy _ the power of 'the
Priesthoosi; the foe to Liberalism every- 7
Where, and it would also tend to calm down
the turbulent spirit, because when it is
known thatthey could legally
_change their
rulers periodically bytheir votes, the great
incentive to Revolution would be removed;
and nothing would instruct the .people so
rapidly in the prhkeiples of a Republic us
the - . 1) ray( LTheral :prineiples.- This
would soon make every'voter feel like our
.American voters feel, every one of whom
considers himself a sovereign,-ekereising the
law-making power, and not a mere cipher
or nonentity, to be used as-a puppet by a
.King'or Emperor.
There never was a more propitious period
for a Republic. The terrible blunder - of the
Emperor has already greatly humiliated-
France, and she is destined yet to submit to
a inuchgrCater humiliation, owing - tot: be la
mentable position in which she is placed—the
country overrun with her terriW enemy,
and the mille' almost an entire prison house,
'no - legitimate government ; no power to
treat; and'nothing to stay the awful destrue
tionAhat is daily going on. until she • cries '
for mercy, and prostrates herself at the foot
stool of her conquerc4.. 'Such is the result of
the . betrayal of her liberties by a despot and
tyrant, and their acquiesenee in it. Will
they teel like trying the Empire again
:Not after all have to partrke of this bitter
cup of - humiliation and woe, which is not
yet'quitelilled up, but which' will be filled
,up to the brim, if Ire mistake, not the signs
.of the times. And there is -.,nothing that
takes the conceit -out of nations,

matters I wish to bring behove' your notice and
the publics in general of Sauylkill County.
They are in connection with the omee-holders
of the W. B. A.. and their anxiety to reinstate
the deceptive reptiles of the tipper Counties,
who broke off . Isom our- Union, and who are
now shaking in their shoes like an aspen leaf in
a mighty storm for fear they will not be ac
cepted back again. There were not so Many fly
ing committees going over our County at the
time we requested them to join with us in
maintaining the eight-hour system. which we
considered would lessen the surplus of coal in
the markets; and which would Lovegiven more
general sallisfaction. Also would have given us
'steadier work, and our employers better sales
and ti er prices for their coal, and would have

i
to 'one dotlar - - per day, to punish
Schuylkill ' men.— -The mean, cowardly .
snakes are worse .than the most venomous
reptiles which first *Moab . and then swallow
anything that comes in their way. But Ido
MA believe that it was any. love their masters
bad for them that mused them to act towards .
us as they have done. -But it was their own
personal greed thitcaused them so to act. They
did not look to the general welfare of their
fellow, workmen, or the welfare of many suffer
ing homilies in Schuylkill County. But li in co
they know they have to mine to the same level
with ourselves, they then cry. to Schuylkill men
for aid in their difficulty. But look out; it is
some other evil design - they have. For it item.*
opinion and the opinion of many of my com
rades, that if we should join them in a strug
gle and enable' them to get the offer et one or
two dollars 'per week more than we can get,
they would just be `like the sow, return to her
wallow, or like the dog, to his vomit. lint.
sirs, it is uriderstood that our General Council
has decided to take them back as prodigals;. but
I am under the Impression that wlben the ques
tion comes before our Districts for decision, we
will not kill for them the fatted calf, 411 though
their masters have been trying to kill' one for
them for the last five or six months back. But
did not their masters make a grand mistake ?
While trying to kill the calf they killed the
large bull to fatten them on. Some Inst $160.000.
others $140,000, and others $130,000. This, I
think; is pretty costly business, and all this try
ing to, kill Sebnylkill Veunty, so that they
might fatten thereby. ....,- '
Now, fellow-workmen of this County, tas it
is drawing to the new year, and settlementis are
being made in many branches of business, let
us have one also. Let us meet our employers
on a fair and honest platform, and have. a fair
-and honorable understanding ..for 1871, by - givj
ing urfair living wages for a fair and honest
day's work. and our employers a fair, paying
price for their coal, so thatthey may be able to
,meet their obligations. Let us from this time'
forward consider our employeesinterest as well
as our own. 'For until such time as the em
ployed take an equal interest in their employ
ee* business, no matter what that branch
may be, there will always be Strife
and difficulties existing between• them, but
by this method we could command for our
• selvesx good report, and the voice of slander
and 'the:finger of reproach, to, which the miner
is so often aultjected, would be taken away, and
the public would then see that we do not wish
to be extortioners, nor our employers oppres
sors. 'rids iattle correct way of doiugbusiness,
I think; and.lik_ this way of going hand in

December 14, '1870; - •-1 •
hope that General Gra - it And - General But

body of unthinking people ready for a ilkturty

your Government could be induced to submit
the Aiabatna claims, for England - I.i very anx
ious to i get this sore healed. Public opinion is
Much changed regarding it, and must eomleinti
the part we played in it, allowing the Alabama
to di-al% her coals from' supplies from English
ports.

think it will not be long before we do r ; but
while there exists any open questions between

DR. BCHENCK ADVISES CONSUMP
DIVES TO GO TO FLORIDA. IN,NVIN
TER.—liuxing (Or the last thirty- fiver devoted
my whole lime and attention to the study of lung
diseaseerand eensumption, I feel that I undersand
fully the course that ought to be pursued to restore
a tolerall g bad ease of diseased lungs to healthy
nbundne The first toad most Important step is
for the p, end to avoid taking cold. 1111111 the best of
all place-J - 16m this continent for this purpose in win
ter, is Florida, melt down in the , State, where the
temperattfreAs regular, and not subject to 'such
variations" as In more Is orthern latitudes. Palatka
tea point I can recommend. 'A good hotel is kept
there by Fetet man. Last winter I saw several per
sons there whose lungs bad been badly diseased,
but who, under the heating influence of the climate
'and toy medic! lleS, were getting well.
One hundred wiles farther down the river iset
point which I would prefer to Palatka, as the tem
perature is more even and the air dry and bracing.
Meilonville and Enterprise aze located there: I
should give a decided preference to . nellcrnville. It
Is two inileti from elver or lake, and It seems almost
impossible total:c.c.:di' there. The tables, in Ekr-
Ida might be better, and patlentscomplain at linTes;
but that is a good sign, as it Indicates a return of
appetite, and when this is the ease they generally
increase in flesh, and then the. lungs must heal.
• Jacksonville, Hibernia, Green Cove, and many
other places -in various parts of Florida, can be
safely recommended to consumptives in winter.
y reasons for "Saying snare that patients are less
liable to takirer, cold there than where there is a
less even temperature, and it is not necessary to
say that where a consumptive person exposes him
; elf to frequent colds he is certain to tile shortly.
Therefore my advice is; go well down (biotite state
out of the reach of preValling east winds and figs.
laelfsonville. or almost any of the other localities
I have maned, will benefit those who are.trosibled
with a torpid liver, a ellsordereJ stomach; deranged
bowels, sore throat or cough, but for th rwhose
lungs are diseased a mere southern point earn
estly recommended.' H
Fur fifteen years prior to lioa, I was profes.sionally
in New York, Boston, Baltimore and Plilladelphijt
every week, where I saw mid examined
age live hundred patients a week.
,A .
practfeayser,.
extensive, embracing every possible phase/4,14ne1:
dh:ease, has enabled me to undo stmal• the:din - lose
fully, and hence, my caution in regard to tutting
cold. A person may time , vast quantities of
"tichenek's Puhnonle Fyruticavreed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills," Enid yet does not avoid
taking cold.
In kteritia,'nearly everybody is using Sebetrek's
Mainbake Piths for the climate is more •Ilkely to
produce habits than more northern hall
cedes.lt is a well established fact that natives of
Florida, rarely die of consumption, especially those
of the'southern part. On the other hand, in New
'England, one third, at least, ef the 'population
-die
of this terrible disease. In ,the States It
does not prevail so largely, still there are.- mahy
thousands of vises there. What a-vast percentage
of life would -be Raved if consumptives were as
easily alarmed in regard IA taking fresh cold as they
are'abotit scarlet fever. small pox., ac. But they
are not. They take svisat they terra a little cold.
which they ate credulous enough to'belleve
wear off in a few days. They 'pay no attention to it,
and hence it lays the foundation for another arm
another still, until the lungs are dheeasol beyond
all hope for cniv.
My - advice to persons Whose lungs nre - affected
even slightly ts,4tilay in a stock of s-chenck's Pub
ruonlc -Syrup, Schenek's Seaweed' Tonic.. and
Sche nck's Mandrake Pills and go to Floada.
recommend these particular medicines because:T.
am thoroughly acquainted With their action. I
know that where tney are used in strict accordance
w,i t ii.Juy-dfrections they will da the work - that is
required.'. This accomplished, nature will de the
rest. The pllXSiehlil 1010 prescribes for odd, cough
n night-sWeatS, and then advbes the patient to
walk:or ride out every day, will be sure to have
corpseon his hands before long. .
My plan is to give my three Ined'clites; in screw
dance with the printed directions, except in-seine
eases wherea freer use of, the Mandrake Pips is
necessary. My object is to giVe tone to the stomach
—to get up a good appetite, It is alway s agnedisign
when a patient begins to grow hungry. I ilaye
hopes of swell. Wg.li a relish Yor food and the gratl
pleat ion of that . relish comesitood•bkxid, and with
it loon-flesh, Whh#l, is closely followed by a healing
of he lungs. 'sTifeli':the cough loosens and abates,
the creeping chills and, clammy night -sweats no
longer prostrate and annoy, and the patient gets
provided•he avoids tartizt. ; cold.
Now there:are many - consumptives who have not,
the means to go to Floridd. The' question may be
asked, Is there no hope for suck; .Cotainly there
is. MY advh . te to such Is. uud ever hasbeeu, to stay,
• in a warm roorn . durtnit the winter, with a tempera-'
