accession to the cause of murder, crime,
prostitution and modern democracy, The
Buchanan leaders of this State finding that
the people were no longer with them in
their raid against popular sovereignty in
Kansas, have assumed the task of demor-
alizing them with bad whisky, with the
hope of getting them ready for their po-
htical operations this fall. In furtherance
of this scheme, they have passed law
which allows doggery-keeper to sell any
quantity of blue ruin" by the quart, on
application and paying $40 to $40 to the
County Treasurer; while hotel keeper is
obliged to make application to the Judges
of the Court, who have a discretionary
power in the matter. Our citizens need
not be much surprised at seeing a NUN
Der of Qne-horse grocery stores established
here in the course of the Summer. We
have no fear of hotel being licensed, as
our Judges are practical as well as theo-
retical Temperance men. We will pub,
Ilish the most important portions of the
law next week perhaps all Of it.

you take few years together; and GER

Besides we do not believe in this method
of determining the value of things. There
IS exactly the same things required by the
School Directors from a female Teacher
as there is froma male Teacher, and, ifso,
they deserve to be paid alike. But our
design is to, that ladies should teach, in
order that the men should employ their
energies upon the sterner duties and busi-
ness of life. Of course we are speaking
of all who are able bodied. Whatever of
capital is withdrawn in this respect is
dead loss. So, too, ladies might be engag-
ed in Stores, We think it will be con-
ceded that they can do most of the busi-
Gess Just as well as men. There are, if
we are not mistaken, some twelve or thir-
teen men who spend their time in selling
merchandise in the village of Couders-
port. Now no one will say that it re-
quires all this force TO do the business,
for we venture to say that six ladies could
sell every article which is aold in town
during the week, and that too by spend
ing only 10 hours each day and six days
in a week nor would we be much sur
prised if, in addition, they would do con-
siderable seacing or knitting, and keep a
much cleaner and neater store. A lady
can sell a piece of cloth as well as a book,
a pouRd of spoqr as we'll as a sheet of
Dapey--and a quantity of hardware lust
as well as a box Of. steel pens and bot
tie of ink. The merchant who would in
froduce the services of a ladv into his
store, would. we are aware, introduce some
thing novel, but, as we conceive, nothing
wrong. We think it is worthy of fair
trial on manv accounts.
One thing more VIC set ND our "Plea"
for and that is that every nerson should
lire pn to an his ea0aoe6eats. BY this
we mean shat every man should keep his

R9rThe Legislature adjourned on the
22d, and Mr.. Benson arrived at home on
the evening of the 23d. He looks hale
and hearty, and much as though neither
the large amount of mental labor he has
performed this winter, nor the domestic
cares he assumed just before leaving last
fall, had impaired his vigorous consti-
tuition.

BarThe Sale of the residue of the
State Canals is about the most important
business transacted by the Legislature
which closed its Session On the I'D inst.
All along the line of the above-named
works there is public rejoicing, and with
reason. At Lock Haven 100 guns were
fred in honor of the passage of the bill
providing for their Sale to the Sqnbury &
Erie Railroad Company, and any quanti-
ty of congratulatory speeches were made.
The upshot of the whole is, that while the
public works will now be turned to some
account, there is also certainty that
another link will complete the second
great chain of American Railway dlverg-
ing from Philadelphia.
| But the best provision of the bill is
that which abolishes the Board Of Cana
Commissioners, and thus removes th'

Ingenuity as well as Inventive genius. 10
bis younger years he invented power print

the foot, and bad the design been carried out,
it would have been very useful. lie made
the first "locofOco" match ever kown; and be
was the first to apply the cam movement to

Of practical utility, hut he never seemed to have
the patience to follow Up any one of them to
6oal success, but as soon as he brought all
invention to a state OF practical use, be would
abandon it for a new one. A number Of pat
eut medicines, now successfully sold, are
made from formulas originated by him. His
were the first pills ever patented 10 the United
