A GOOD MOVE.
The Lata Krie I'ws Association at
their meeting a few weeks ago, appoint.
ed a Committee to prepare ft bill provi
ding fur the publication of the laws in
every count in tho State, nud to get
such bill enacted by the legislature
In j ursuauce of their authority the com.
liiittee have prepared a bill, a copy of
which we have received. The lit tec
tion- provides that a certified copy of ev
ery general law, eseopt the General Ap
f frriiiin Hill, well as of every pri-
vato of local law spccinl'y relating to the
county or its citizius, shall as soon as
approved by the Governor, be scot by
ihrf Secretary of the Commonwealth
y
-to " the Coumiusiouors of. each county
The ' 2d sectio.1, makes it the duty
of the County Commissioners m soon
as said laws arc received by them
to cause th-jai to be published in not
less than one newspaper of eac
of the two political parties if there be so
roariv published in the county, not less
thau twice.
The publication of the laws in this
manner has been practiced for some time
in New York, New Jersey, Ohio, and
many other States.nnd we are iuforrucd
with universal fatisfaction to the people
"We believe their publication here an ab
solute j,iiMV nemsiVy. To inflict puis-is-hmcit
for acts committed not iu vio-
Jatiou of any law when committed, but
' tnly pronounced criminal by subsequent
legislation, would be to grci-s an injus-
ticc as not to be thought of for a mo
uieot. 1'ublie tcDlimcnt unhesitatingly
. approves the wiidem of the Fathers as
expressed in that provision of the Fed
eral Ctustituticu which f maids the pas.
tape of an e.r pint facto law. It is one
of the glories of our laws, theoretically,
that thoy are j riser ilcil. In fact, this
prescription of our laws is a mockery
nnd evciv dnv we violate tho spirit of
- - j .
i.he provision against ex post fucto loirs.
Dur acts of Assembly usually take effect
from the date of their approval by the
Governor. The pamphlet Laws do not
usually reach us until July. Iu the
meantime wc are subject to tie provis
ions aud liable to the paius and penal
ties of laws we have no opportunity of
knowing. Should we unwittingly be
guiltv of an iufiaction of one of them,
and be brought before a court of justice
(?) to ausvcr for our crime, and offer as
a delence that wo did not kuowof the
Jaw, and that we could not have known
of it, it will avail us nothing. The learn
ed judge, will iuform us that tho pro
ound and concentrated wisdom of ages
declares as an axiom, thai '' ignorance
of the law excuseth no one" tor " every
man is presumed to know tho law," aud
uprn this very violent presumption we
-will be convicted and punished. Our
laws between tho date of their publica
tion and the date of their circulation,
are presciibcd, iu about as true a sense
as were those of the ltomau emperor
who had his laws wri'ten iu very fine
baud and hung on the tops of high pil
lars, so that while he made a public
show of them the people necessarily re
mained as ignorant of (heir provisions
.. hrfure. The people have a right to
know what laws are to govern them ira
mediately upon their approval; such.
knowledge is a publio necessity, which
bill nn cW consideration U very well
calculated to supply. '.
Another consideration iu favor of this
mode of publication is that the laws will
come to the citizen in regular instalments
from week to week enabling him to read
them all and carefully; and inhis coun
ty paper he can preserve for future ref
civuee the whole body of general and
local laws of each yoar pertaining to him
and his county. Xnw no man, has the
nerve to undertake to read the ponder
ous volume of pamphlet laws which is
bues yearly, aud to bunt for any pnrticu
liiract, is almost like hunting tor a uee
!lo iu a hay stack.
We believe as we havo said that the
iill is an absolute publio noecsMty, and
we hope it will pass.

ween reconstruction ana Dirsiuess are
ot sufficiently Considered in the North.'
They jiru deeply pondered in tho South,
tor there the wolf ot want pushes its
pinched nose into almost every house
hold, ana men aro compelled to lootc at
every avenuo ot escape Irom their pres
ent condition that is proposed, cither in
Congress or out. 1 he bt. Louis hcjmb.
lican,n an article upon- business and
politics, thus speaks ot thc.tuture :
Let all who are forecasting the chan.
ces for business in" 1867 take special ac
couut of tho political elements which
may affect it. Never was caution in
that direction more necessary than now.
The measures which ore finding favor
with Oonzrcss are the political ruin of
the South, a.id they invoke with it tho
commercial ruin ot that section ot the
country.- These measures will do more j
to tend down a bliglit on the liclda ot
the South in lifUT than did in 18GC a
disastrous season almost without paral
lel. There can bo no prosperity at the
South tinder the withering touch of suih
legislation.' If these measures pass
even if tho menace of them is not speed
ily withdrawn let no man look to the
South expecting to find paying custo
mers' there. And if there is no pros
perity at the South, will there bo pros
perity at the North? What reflecting
man does not anticipate . the auswer to
such a question ?
The political aspect warrants tho ex
pectation that we shall have a year oi
more of commercial gloom, depression
and disaster, l'rudent men will as all
should be setting their houses in order.
Thoy are not at tho mercy ot men, who,
in aiming at the destruction of constitu
tional government and republican insti
tutions, would laugh at the ruiu of the
whole mercantile class as the merest
bagatelle. The .-lye adds these remarks:
These are plaiu thoughts. I hey can
be understood in tho counting house,
in the work shop, in tho manufactory.
Thev are based upon a course of politi
cal action, the shadow of which is al
ready lengthening upon the history of
our country. The adoption of the mili
tary reconstruction biil leaves no room
to doubt the real meaning of the Radi
cals. ' They intend to destroy the polit
cal importance of the Southern States at
all hazaidh. For this purpose. . white
men are to be disfranchised, aud uegroes
raised to the elevation of lull citizenship.
Under the system now advocated, not
more than one-sixth ot the white men
of the South can have a voice in adopt
ing local laws for the - South, while all
tho adult male negroes will be brought
to the polk This will prt the couth
under u netro government. . That class
will fashion tho laws by which property
and business aro to be regulated, indus
try managed and labor made prosperous.
The cotton nnd sui:ar interests of that
vast reaion will be at tho mercy of un
educated freedmen, or speculators and
adventurers who wll look to present
profits at the expense of future substati
tial results. The elevation of colored
men and the degradation of white citi
zens will also prevent a' proper labor
system from being matured and put in
operation. If the negroes are armed
with tho ballot' aud allowed to outvote
the whites, they will not suffer such
laws to be enacted bearing upon labor
and laborers as are absolutely necessary
in order to meet the altered condition ot
affairs in that section of tho Union.
These aro consaoueoccs that will in
evitably follow the adoptiou and enforce,
nient of the Radical scheme of" recon
struction." Add yet the political pro
gramme will be carried forward, regard
less ot its business aspect, ineuoiui
iiaut party clamor for protection to honut
industry lrom foreign competition, while
at the same time they are striking down
the business interests North and South
by despotic and unconstitutional legisla
tion with reference to a considerable por.
tion of the na'ion. Tbe planters and
merchants of the South are afraid to em.
bark in business when they aro threat
ened witli- negro rule and domination.
Capitalists will not invest their money
in States whero th legislation is coo
trolled by negroes. Tho blow aiuicd at
the South thus rebounds and strikes tho
North ia a most vital spot. The dimi
nution of products in the South is fol
lowed bv a shorter demand for articles
produced hero, and that fact operates
upon all the business interests of the
North.
The Re uhlicon wisely declares that
the political ruin of the South will briug
with it the " commercial ruiu of that
section of the country."' If, therefore,
the Radicals are determined upon the
Grst, as is proved by theii acts, they will
be responsible for the latter, with all its
atendant consequences upon the busi.
uess of the North. It is fears of this
kind that are makin stagnant the
stream of trade at this tima in all por
tions of tho North. Business is waiting
upon reconstruction. The labor and
capital of the nation are enslaved by a
few ambitious men in the Radical party,
INSENSIBILITY.
A friend, who is by no means au ex
treme cartisan. but a thoughtful and
loyal, (usiiig lhw woW in.jts true sense.)
American feitisen, remarked to us that as
he sat, tho other day In ; the balls of
Congress, and saw tho military, tho
Sherman-Stevens bill pass without sub
stantial resistance, he felt disposed to do
as Frenchmen in Paris are wont to do,
take off his hat as tho funeral of consti
tutional liberty went by, But ho looked
around and saw that few felt as he . did
and he came hone here to Philadelphia,
and ho went among hig buisness friends
tho moneyed met) of ThirJ street arid of
the hiiuk narlors. and he found all : Tier.
fectly tranquil. - The -truth wks, nor one
cared either about the burial, or the pos
sible resurrection.'' And this it seems to
us is the terrible reality. At tltin uio-
meot, there is building over our heads
and all around us the buttresses and
ramparts of a l'arliamontary despot
ism, the like" of which has not
beeu seen since 1610 in England,
and 1793 in France. The processes
are actively going on. An uncontrolled,
because sectional, majority, not ot . tho
people, but of deputies, . who do not
always represent majoritcs, now opeuly
seeks and is likely to obtain absolute
control, and vc, the descendants, in but
the second generation of those who went
to war against the mildest ot Farliamen
tary restraints, look on, and acquiesce
quieting our consciences or our imagina
tions occasionally with a trilly ceremonial
about an old chair and table which, it it
had any significance, nnd we any aeosi
bility, would stir us op to mutiny. A
benumbed sentiment is the American
characteristic now. Occasionally we
failcy we see minute signs of restlessness
ot hesitation, of doubt, of irritability, in
quarters where we have no right to look
for them, but thev are very sngni,
When one grave Republican Senator
rather of a conservative typo, on. tho
floor of the Senate, calls a It adioal col
league a liar, and anotherspeaks of him
as a foul-mouthed calumniator, it shows
that there is au uncomfortable state of
feeling underneath appaTent unanimity
We have nn doubt that the ruffians who
murdered Ranquo were on perfectly
good terms of-fellowship aud as littlo
that those who fought about the habes
in the wood had ugly wotds bofore they
came to blows. 1 he irritable man is al.
ways tho doubting one. Sumner,' who
is as dcstituie of sensibility as he is o
courage, and who thinks all that is doin
is riglit, did not mind being called a liar
at all. Mr. 1-essenden aud - Mr. oner
man used the words aud gave vent, to
their temper (at leas', we hope so), be
cause they are begining to pause an
to doubt, i. Then, too, . though this
shows no ma'.tcr of feeling, or, cx
cept in its consequences, of temper, the
sudden breaking asunder of the great,
hard, frozeu floe of republicanism, the
West from the East on tho tariff, Penn
sylvania being of course crushed to death
by the grinding, is a sympton of dis
turbance. This can hardly be healed
now. Stevens of the iron works goes
home in unappeasable wrath at the
Western wool gatherers, and grain
raisers our littlo representative's birds
will twitter fiercely. . Then again, at this
juncture comes the remarkable decision
of the Abolition Legislatuie of Ohio not
to strike the word "white" out of its
Constitution, to be fatlowcd sooner or
later by every State that has the limita
tion. Rut most remarkable of all is the
sprouting up, tbe cropping out ot fears
and uncasincsss about tho publio credit,
in viw of the progress of political rum.
Mr. MeCulloch in his last anuil re
port thought and said that the restoration
of the Southern States and the rehabili
tation of their industry were as essential
I to the restoration of financial Seourity,
as mere contraction oi me currency, in
anything else. This is his 'ctiine"
in Sumner's eyts. But every sane
man - knows this as well ', as the
Secretary -and yet a whole session
of Congress has. rolled by and we
are further. off than ever, and in tho
next matters will be worse. Does any
one wonder that funded capital is un
easy, and this alarm, in spite of every
inducement on such a delicate subject
to be silent, finds expression ? We
were much struck by nn illustration
