REPUTATION.

A Locofoco paper published in Ohio
speaking OF repndiatlon, observes: SIT Is
very probable that frank expression OF
our honest views in regard to this subject
would be very shocking to the minds of
neN ons people. By "nervous, " it
means honest people-people who are of
opinion that whether debt is contracted
by a man or a State, honesty requires it
should be paid. 1t congratulates itself on
exemption from such nervousness. and
we congratulate ourselves that itdocs
not owe us debt. for, if it die, We should
regard its collection as utterly hopeless.
Any man, who will advocate reputation
by "A State, is not too good to repudate
his individual debts. Indeed we do not
believe repudialor eau be found who
would ssrurle to rob henroosts or pick
pockets. We should regard our pos
sessions inst as safe in the vicinity of a
den of robbers. as in tic vicinity of the
advocates Of reputation, Honesty and
aepudiation occupy polar extremes, and
can never be united in the came person.
A man who would rcpudiatc would steal
whenever he had an opportunity, for re-
pudlation aud theft are only different
names Of tile same act. Repudialors are
rogues, and we would as soon loan mo-
ucy to a scoundrcl in the penitentiary as,
to one who ought to be there. five lived
where such rascas exist, we would have
our doors fortified with all the securities
which human ingenuity has inventcd,co
tidcnt that the safety Of our property
would depend more on bolts and bars
tan on the honesty of some Of our
neighbors.-L0u. Jour.

ERlAL VOYAGE ACROSS THE
OCEAN.

Mr.. Wise, the aronaut, announces,
through the columns Of the Lancaster In
telligencer, the he intends to make an
nrial trip across the Atlantic in balloon
in 1914, and cautions all mariners on the
ocean not to the least alarmed if they see
him floating in the atmosphere. He says
that his long experience in aroslaics has
convinced him THAI a regular current Of
air is blowing at all times from w. to E.
with a velocity of from 20 to 40 niles per
hour, according to its height from the
earth; and having discovered composition
which will render :ik or mrslin impervi-
Gus to hydrogen gas,so that balloon may
be kept ahoat for many weeks, he feels
confident, With these advantage that trip
across the Atlantic will not be attended
with as much real danger as by the com
mon mode of transition.
"The balloon is to be one hundred feet
in diameter, which will give nett ascend
ing power oftwenty five thousand pounds
being amply sufficient to make every
thing safe and comfortable. A sea worthy
is to be used for the car, which is to be
depended on, in case the balloon should
happen to fail in accomplishing the voy-
age. The boat would also be calculated
upon in case the regular current of wind
should be diverted Fl ON the course by
the influence Of ocean, or through other
causes. The crew to consist office per-
sons, vix: an aronaut. navigator and
scientific landsman. "

BALLooNlNG THE ATLANTIC. Mr.. j.
Wise, the celebrated balloonist, gives no.

The Balloon is to be one hundred feet

ITThc Government organ is some
tunes rather unfortunate when it under
TAKES to gIorify its master. For instance,
it says Tyler's "posttion has been sin
gu'ar and anomalous one" Every one
will echo that remark, and every one
knows that as honesty is not. singular"
or anomalous" Tyler's 'posilion'' has
not been honest. The only thing par,i-
cularly singular and anomalous we find
in Tyler's position is the unparalleled
Jmpudence he manitests in striving to
maintain il in the face Of llc scorn of the
whole world. Judas could not bear the
thought of his treachery, and therefore
"went out and hanged himselCn Arnold,
we ale told, was most unhappy man,
and could not support himself under the
consciousness that every one loathed
him. Tyler differs from both his prede-
cessors, nasmuch as he does not sink UNI
der the load of trcachery he susians. In
this respect he is singular and anomal>
ous'' indeed, and posterity will undoubt-
eddy award him the inlamy of having
been the most unblushing traitor on re-
cord.-Lou. Jour.

On vain pageantry;" but breathes forth
Celestial music, and drinks
Philosophy, which when the lip

The sense no more, will hold its strength
Unbroken.''

Reputation in Cecil We observe ia
many of our exchanges, great ITO do
made about the reputation meeting said
to have been held here on the Ord inst
We gave it last week all the notice we
thought it entitled TO. We are mortified
to think that the impression is entertain
ed abroad that any respectable man in
Cecil is in favor Of reputation, or, that
the number of regulators ofany charac-
ter is considerable, and we therefore now
assert, and hope all who see our paper
will TAKE NOTICE, that that meeting
was total failure; that even the commit
tee appointed to draft the report did not
attend ii; that two or three persons who
pay but very little if any tax, were
"drumnca up" to form some kind ofmeet-
ing, that the report was submitted by that
arch repudia1or, A. T. Forwood, man
who has not particle of influence; and
that it has not caused The least sensation
here-lhat it is in fact already forgotten.
N. B.-Dr and Esq appended to
names, attach an importance TO them a
broad which they sometimes are not en-
titled to; therefore, without intending the
slightest dssrespect to DR.. Edward B,
Lewis, or George w. Moore, Esq, (who
figured as President and Secretary of the
meeting but. simply to correct any errone-
Gus impression that may have been formed,
we deem it proper to state that although
they are very respectable men, they do
not claim to possess any remarkable in
lluence over their fellow citizens. DR..
Lewis is very respectable teacher of
common school, and Esq. Moore is a
very respectable tailor. and both no doubt
have as much influence as any other men
would have in their respective situations

MR.. SPE.NCER.-A Washinpto

.Hh. Or E.F 1 Eh.-A washington
correspondent Of the N Y Express says
OF this gentleman:
'He is known here not only to push
MIR. Tyler on in his mad career bat wish
es TO bring all his associates to bend to
his views and adopt his measures in their
departments as well as his own. lie as
sures the President, that if Mr.. Wicklilfe
will adopt his recommendations he will
bring all the democracy to his support
Before he entered the Treasury, he exac-
led a pledge from Mr.. Tyler that he
would place the entire control of the de-
partment in his bands. This pleege,
entirely proper in itself, there is reason
TO believe the President regrets. He in
terfered with MIR Forward SO much as to
break up the discipline and order OF the
Office entirely. But Mr.. Spencer does
not stop there. He not only wishes to
make the Cabneta unit, but he wishes to
be the unit himself"

LOVE AND THE Posi- CFFIcE.-The
Boston Post says, in the course of over
hauling papers to detect smuggling cor
respondence, the post office clerks make
queer discoveries sometimes. In one in
stance, they suspected that a copy of the
Boston Notion contained something more
than was set down in the table of con-
tents, and, upon opening it, they found
that piece of ivory had been neatly set
into square cut out of the body of the
paper, and was the vehicle of the tender
thoughts of couple of lovers-one re-
siding il. Concord and the other in Bos-
ton. The messenger Of love had passed
SO often SEQ. free that at io:"sstil the low,
ers became careless in the manner OF do
ing it up, and thus suspicion fell upon it.
The clerks allowed it to make two or
three trips after they discovered the trick.
