A Crash.

The eastern portion or wing of the Zol-
linger House, on West Broad street. fell at
about six o'clock last evening. The fall
was occasioned by an excavation made on
that side of the building, with view to its
further extension in that direction. For
some time before its fall the structure gave
premonitory symptoms that such catas-
trophe was about to take place, which af-
forded an opportunity for the removal OF
furniture and other movables from the
rooms. AT length the brick walls sudden
ly gave way, and down came the doomed
structure into the excavation bellows
mass of ruins.

Has Faith in 1he President Dut
None in This Congress.

ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS is represented
as having no faith that theSouthern States
will be permitted to resume their represen-
tation by this Congress; but that he has
faith in the constitutionalism of President
JOHNSON, and his patriotic, wise and hu-
name purposes. Mr.. STEPHENS is certainly
right with regard to this Congress- and we
think his confidence in the President is not
misplaced. 1t is to be hoped that the peo-
pie generally will become imbued with
constitutionalism, patriotic, wise and hu-
name purposes to an extent that will en-
able the President to sustain himself against
the Radicals whose action is whirling the
Government in the direction of consolida-
tion,

Another Presidential Earthquake

Another RreStOentAhA AHb"Et"J""AAO'
The grandest speech yet made by Presi-
dent JOHNSON, is the one he made to sol
diers and sailors at Washington City on
Wednesday evening. tis, undoubtedly, the
greatest effort of his life In the speech line
To the country 1t is assuring In the highest
degree. 1t removes all doubt from the
minds of the most incredulous, and con-
yinces them that President JOHNSON will
not abandon his position to stand by the
Constitution and the integrity OF the Union.
No persecution---no blandishments--can
drive or seduce him from that position. AS
he never in his life deceived or betrayed
any one, he is not now going to abandon the
Constitution or his county or the people,
The people can respond with a hearcy
"amen" to his "thank God" that he is the
tribune of the people. There is hope for
the country, for the maintenance of consti-
tutional liberty, If the people will only sls-
tain the President as against the bad men
in Congress who want to subvert our form
of Government. BY all means, read the
speech, and cali upon your neighbor to DO
likewise.

A Nuiannce.

There is nuisance at the front entrance
OF the Postoflice, which should be abated al
once, if there is any authority or power
lodged anywhere to do so. There is bar
Der shop Immediately below the entrance,
which is covered with an iron grating. In
going into the Postoflice, persons, includ-

more explicit. We will only add that we
know of several gentlemen who have for
hidden females in their families from GO

Health of school Children.

A medical society, which has had this
subject under consideration, has arrived at
the following conclusions:
The duration of daily attendance (includ-
ing the time given to recess and physical
exercise) should not excel FOUR ANDAHALF
HOURS for primary schools, six hours for
other schools.
There should be no study out of school
unless at High schools; and that should
not excel one hour.

Increased state Taxation.

TheI Indianapolis Herald states that for the
year 1864, the entire taxes of Indiana, State
and local, amounted to $35.9S to each as
sessed poll. For the year 1860, it was $70.l5.
This condition Of things in Indiana is sure
ly bad enough, but they are no worse off
than In some other of the States. The in
crease In Ohio, within a few years, has been
enormous. Nor has all this been for war
purposes. Under Republican rule the SAL
aries of all State officers has been almost
doubled Prpligacy has been the rule in

Gas sCOmnlissiOner-Cur Omission
IN a Legislative Act.

The Ohio Legislature, at its late session,
created the Office of Gas Commissioner
the officer to be appointed by the Govern
or, and to serve for two years, his duty be-
ing to inspect gas meters throughout the
State. The bill, as it was originally intro
duced, provided salary of $4,000 per year
for this functlonary; but, singular as il
may seem, no salary is named in the bill as
it was passed. AS there are quite num-
Der of applicants for the office, the ardor Of
some of them may be considerably damp
ened upon learning the fact of this import
ant omission.

Through thorns and briers the nearer God:
Though weak in faith, still | would dare
To offer up the earnest prayer
That Christ would choose whate'er is m eet;
