SwEEPIxe Orr THg GALPHrKs. The f,o.
co Foeo promises TO sweep out the Galphins
are likely to furnish them good deal Of la
Dor in their own household. Tie following

been perpetrated upon that occasion. Our

Just presented for that funeral; ma liking in all
fifteen thousand eight hundred dollars thus far
for the so-called obsequies Of the lamented
Statesman! How much more is to come
no one knows; but that two-thirds Of this
sum is nothing more nor less than downright
robbery Of the public funds is a fact that no
one can for moment doubt How is il
donei Wereally cannot say; but five are
not greatly mistaken, o. if the truth were
not hbelous, we verify believe that we could
point out at least one instance where an
Alderman deliberately doubled The amount

had emPloyedi in some service ahout the fu-
neral; the man collecting ofthe Alderman
the Alderman ofthe city. Is it not more
than outrageous that the. unscrupulous men
who are thus doubling our taxes TO enrirI
themselves, should pursue plunder so hotly
as to make the moment Of national grief the
occasion of pubic robbery, following the
great Statesman OF the West to his grave

PUBLIC OPINION IN FRAKcE.-A Partisan
correspondent OF the New York Tribune,
gives the following as an instance ofthe
manner in which public opinion and popular
enthusiasm is manufactured in Frauce.-
The writer refers to the late magnificent en-
trance of LOUIS NAPoLEuE into Paris after
his tour of the Southern Provinces:
For many daysin advance the police Off
GERS had been going in all the manufactures
and workshops to invite the employers to
stop working on that day, and to urge their
workmen to 60 and see the entrance of the
Prince. Those who deciaed doing so we're
noted down. When the public officer went
to NJ. Didot, the great printer, and told him,
81 understand you intend stopping your
presses next Saturday." 81 beg your par.
don, sir, | intend doing no such thing" was
NJ. IDIOTS reply. eyes, yes" retorted the
Policeman. "and you are going to. ask the
Prefect of Police for aplace in the cortege
for some of your workmen, and buy banner
for them-at least the Pre(ect of Police ex.
poets you to do so, and you would not, sup.
| pose, enter into a canaiet with himp' go
course not" said M. Didot, who remember.
ed that the Prefect could Withdraw his H.
cense as printer, and ruin him in n moment;
and on the appointed day there were to be
seen few of N. DIS workmen in the crowd
with their banner amoag those who were
suidto have come there out Of pure enthusi-

Grown up men, never were, nor never will
We, driusn by abuse and harsh language to
abandon wrong practices. The temperance
refos5a is moral one, and until public opin-
ion, by moral means--by reason, persuasion
and the spirit of love-is set right, law or
coerciye means Of any kind will be of little
avail, Wishing success 10 Temperance, we
nevertheless feel bound to express the opin-

MIR. Pugh,s Lecture.

Mr. George Z. Pugh, the able and elo-
quent Attorney General Of Ohio, delivered
Lecture before the franklin Lyceum and
a crowded assemblage of citizens, at Column
bus, on Monday evening last. on the nature
and effects Of Commerce, II is acknowl-
edged on all hands tobe mastery produce
tion; The array Of facts and figures which
he brought to bear on the subject eyinced
deep research, apd his reasonings upon those
statistics were conclusive. Even the State
Journal can find no fault except with it's
free trade doctrines, which must have been
the best as they were the most legitimate de-
ductions fom the history Of Commerce from
the beginHing of the world. ,a
Commerce, which has even been the great
lever Of civilization, and the only effective
medium for the spread OF true christianity
throughout the earth, has always been DOOM
ed to struggle against all manner Of artificial
barriers erected by the jealousy Of rulers, the
self interestof classes, and popular delusiou.
But these barriers are fast crumbling away
under The mighty influence Of truth and the
spread of knowledge. Nor will this effect
cease until every vestige of these fetters
upon mans industrial well-being are swept
TO the winds.

committed, was wrong in principle, as Il
was unjust and often ruinousto 10 the innos
oent in placiice. But as we found soiew
who could view the subject ia the light we
did, and the effect Of custom was so power.
iul in favor of the adopted system, we laid
It aside as reform for which the time had
notyet arrived. A short time since, how
ever, we found very able article uniler the
above heading, on the subject, in the Cincini
natl Enquirer, pointing out the reform at
one worthy the consideration Of the firsl
legislature under the new constitution. we
hope that able journal will revert to the
subject again, as the present. system is both
anti-republican and unjust. Why should a
man, elected by the people, be at once set
down as being so unworthy Of the conf
dence reposed in him, as to make it necps-
saEy for his friends to become his surety p
And why should wfriends become solely
responsible, in a pecuniary point Of view,
for the acts Of apublic officer Are they
any more interested than the entire commu-
nifty?
But The most serious objectionto the prac-
ice is, that it lessensthe sense OF public du-
ty and blinds the mind to the moral turpi-
tude Of delinquency. Public delalcation is
great moral wrong, great crime. As
such, it should be punished, and that too,
severely. If pfivaie robbery is looked up
on as most heinous offence against COM
munity and the robber is held in merited de-
testation, how much greater is the offence
OF public robbery ind how much more de-
serving of detestation is the robber! We
wish TO see our laws place NAL. feasa nee in
office where it justly belongs, in the catego-
ry OF crime. We desire to see the unfailh-
lul officer regarded asa criminal, and punish
ed as such. We do moi wish that commun-
ty should look upon official wrong-doing as
something that can be atoned for by money.
We do not wish that the unfaithful officer
himself should rest in the belief that his
will only extend 10 the ruin Of
a few coafiling friends, and place no stain of
guilt upon his character in the eyes of the
world or al least, no greater one than the
possession OF wealth can readily efface.
The practice of private security for pecu-
mary obligations is bad enough. and ought to
be abandoned BY our business community,
casting os it does, innocent families into
lifelong misery; but for public trusts i, is
far worse. l: is 10 be hoped that the Lsgis-
lature now about to convene will axe this
matter into serious consideration and give
evidence of its progressive tendencies by
reforming practice so contrary to the true
spirit Of the age.

A Specimen Hungarian.

In an interesting account, published in
French, Of The most prominent Hungarian
officers, the following is given Of celebrat-
ed parsonage bearing the singular name Of
Feryent Kiss:
He was wealthy proprietor. owning twen-
ty-lhree Vi llages, and was man Of excessive
personal elegance as well as Of chivalric cour-
age. Heregularly sent his linen all the way
from Hungary to Paris TO be washed, and
was, in similar respects, D'0fsay as we'll
as Bayard. His boldness in danger was re-
markable; and II is told of him thet one day
within reach of an Austrian battery, making
an observation, he ordered his servant ID
bring him cup of chocolate. A shot took
il from his hand and killed his horse.-
CLUMSY rascdls!" said Kiss, ''they have up
set my breakfast" When taken out with
three others 10 be shot he was superbly dres-
sed.. The order was given to fire, and his
companions fell, while he stood untouched.
"Rou have forgotten me-" said Kiss IN his
usual tone of voice. The corporal of the
platoon stepped up and fred. and, the ball
striking him in the forehead, he fell dead
without a struggle.
The above reminds us Of the celebrated
Mutat, King otNaples, one Of the bravest
Of Napoleon's marshals. With courage and
bravery that delighted in danger, he was vain
of bis personal beauty, was fond Of dress,
and gloofied in leading one Of his desperate
cavalry charges, in his fine uniform, his long
plumes floating in the breeze, and his sabre
doingits bloody work, welded by neatly
gloved hand.
