Lynch Law.

The spirit of insubordnaon which so fear
fully RACES in this country, has at length reached
our neighbouring Borough Of Easlon About
len days ago, an apparently inofiensire stran-
ger, purchased large bills of goods from sever
al of the yOung store keepers Of tha, place, for
which he did not call a. the appointed time.
They soon hunted him up, and found that they
had been duped by fool, and tha, their GUS
toner had no use for their goods. This know-
edge so enraged the youngsters, that they I'M
medately held council, al which i; was de-
iermined to meet out to the offender some Of
Judge Lunches tan. Four couSkins, were ac-
cordingly procured, and The poor foolish oflen-
der, was whipped by the would-be yOung gen
tlemen out of Town. The affair very naturally
created a great excitement, amongst the ci,-
zens, and il was not long before complaint was
lodged before Justice, and four of the ring
leaders bound over TO Court for Assault and
Battery and Riot His Honor Judge Banks,

The New Congress.

Monday last was The day fixed by the Con-
Stlulion for the assembling Of the newly elected
Congress and from our la,es, accounts from
Washington, are led TO infer that there were
lnembers enough present TO form quorum IN
both Houses. Whether they were able to or
aanze however, is another matter In conse-
auence of The States OF New Hampshire, Mis-
sissippi, Missouri, and Georgia disregarding
the provisions Of the new Apporlionment law,
which directs ina, all the members shall be cho-
sen by Single !iSirlciS, and electing by Gen
erql Ticket, great difficulty was expected TO oc-
cur. If this exciting question was agita'ed on
Monday ii is possible that weeks may elspse
before an organization can be effected. The two
prominent candidates of The locos for Speaker,
are William Wilkins, of Pennsylvania, and j.
w Jones, of Richmond, Virginia. Mr. Jones,
was the caucus candidate for Speaker, in 1889,
when r. NJ. T. Hunter, was elevated TO that
sla,ion-at that lime, although he received the
caucus nomination, he could not command all
lhe votes Of his Parlisans in the House, and
was consequently defeated. This time he viii
experience much difficulty from the fact that
the seat he occupies is contested by The Hon.
John NJ. Bous. Mr. Wilkins, is such noo-
rous old tedeyalist, rha, he can hardly obtain
The confidence of ;he party which wishes TO
claim all the title 10 Democracy. But time will
reveal all AS soon as the House is organized,
the President will deliver his annual message,
"a document which is anxiou.ly looked for,
and which we will lay before our readers with
as liule delay as possible.
p S. Since wiring the above, we learn
shat Mr. Jones, secured the caucus nomination.
on Saturday evening. His election may there
fore be considered almost certain.
