DEAR SENTINEL-Now that Governor

ed his principal appointments, Qsneral
Cameron elected United States Seaator,
aud both Houses settled down to STEADY
work, propose to keep your readers at

Thus far there has been little priva,
Legislation, though both Houses have nos
formed private calenders and are prepai-
lag large amount Of business. Thc.,
is strong feeling agains, long and vi.
necessary adjournme-ts, and in favor 4
hard work and a short session.
National affairs have attracted muc,
attention and developed much discussion.
The Constitutional Amendments hae
been fully aud ally discussed in boh
Houses and have passed the Senate by IA
strict party vote. Some Of the abIest j.
gumen;s aud most eloquent addresses ever
delivered in the Senate Of Pennsylvania
were elected by this discussion Co,li
these arguments be brought hoae to every
voter, and every voter be Induced % read
and ponder them caudldly, Pennsylvania
would vote as overwhelmingly Republican
Us does Massachusetts,.
The Resolutions # ccnsure upon Cow
ala introduced some time since haye also
developed much debate aud compelled III:
Democracy, already sick Of their e!haat,
to commit themselves still more ,peie>sly
to the exploded "?olicy' aud failing for

mcnt Of lie more cautious and prudent
A few bills Of public Interest have been
introduce | into each House. IL the Sen
ate Mr Bingham offered a resolution iH-
s;ructing tie Committee on Railroads. to
report Free railroad bill. and declaring
that its confederation should take prcci~
dcnec Of any local legislation. Mr.. Ian
den offered u resolution appointing a coni-
m!tce Of three to prepare an act relative
to he education Of soldiers orphaus.-
After cousiderabi. discussion IN reference
to the want of Legislation on this sIbjec,,
the committee on Education Or. Wor-
thiD&tou. Cnaigman,) was INSTRUCTED to

should be remlrA cd that heretofore there
has been hat l.liic legislation On the sub

Let the people look at this matter fairly
and sqnarely. The powers Congress is
now exercising arc those conGdel to it by
the Constitution. They are the conserv-
''ive powers requisite, hay indispensable,
TO the maintenance Of popular liberties,
and are now welded because the emer-
gency demands that hey should be.

INMATES OF POOR HOUSES.

judge Stowe, OF the Allegheny Quar-
ter Sessions, lately had before him three
petitions from the Directors of the Coun-
ty Home, setting forth that certain par
ties therein named had become charges
upon the county, and that certain other
parties, children and grandchildren Of
the INDECENT persons, were amply able to
support them comfortably for the future,
and to refund to the county SUCH sums Of
money as Lad already beeu expended for
their support. 10 every case the Court
fixed the amount of compensation which
Was to be assessed upon the children aad
grand children.
The principle Of law settled ia these
cases, says The Pittsbrrg Commercial is
very important one, aud is this: Tina,
the flthcr or mother, if able, is bound TO
supper, bis or her children or grand chill
dreu; and prevent them becoming charge
upon the public aud the like du;y legal
ly derolyes upon the children Or grand
children Of aged, infirm or illigent pa
rents or grand parents. Il the parties
neglect 50 20 do, the Poor Directors eau
apply to the Judges of he Quarter Ses,
sion-, and if the ability Of the partie. is
established, compel repayment OF what
ever public money has been expended,
and a sufficient sum per week for the fr-
ture maintenance Of the party.

LAST SPRING AND SUMNER the Dem.
ocrat5 and Conservatives found GooI
zeal of solid satisfaction in denouncing
Congress, and in predicting that the peo-
PIE, at the elections then approaching,
would stamp it with reproba'ion. The
elections came, and the people did 10
such thing. Congress was empbaticeiIy
approved. All the advanced Radicals
were re nominated aud re elected. Only
the Conservatives and half hearted Raai-
oals were dropped. For a time the
abuse Of Congress was silenced. Recently,
however, it has beer renewed. Ia view
Of the undcniabe facts, we submit that
tue real point Of objection is not against
Congress, but against Popular Govern
ment. The objectors do not want the
people to govern, but only an Insignificant
faction.

Working Sulphurets.

A CORRESPONDENT of the San Francisco Times
furnishes that paper with the following upon this
important subject to the quartz miner:
Many articles speaking of necessary develop
ments in our State have lately made their appear
ance in the different newspapers, such as building
railroads. county roads, rolling mills, smelling fur
naces. opening of the Colorado river. etc. all of
which proper and much needed, but why not at
once strike at the most needed want Of all? We
want more money here, and must have 1t. Oar
miEeS are being dug deeper and deeper every day
and the Sulphurets, which increase as greater
depth is reached, troublesome to those engaged
in the treatment Of them. As is found by ASSAY
or analysis that the sulphurets contain far more
gold than exists in free condition in the rock
from which they came, and require closer attention
and more careful manner in working. One writer
very properly proposes that the State ofer large
reward for any one who will successfully work sui
phurets on large scale.
There is one mine in Butte county alone that. if
properly worked would yield millions of dollars
every year for the next hundred years. lpdgiag
from the present appearance of explorations. Some
may say that ou- mines are too deep. There Is
one in the State which is twelve hundred feet in
depth. The writer has cOuverSed with German
who had worked in the Hartz mountains, in mine
that had been worked continuously for six hundred
years and they were down SIX thousand feet Who
believes that American enterprise can be outdone
by the slow but going German: 1t Is suggest
ed that Americans can at least delye to the same
depth. What seems to he needed is, thai our veal.
thy men lend helping hand 10 those who are will
ing to devote their brains to find out new plans of
working. Let the bankers and gold dust buyers of
the State apply ten per cent. OF their profits for
one year. rs a reward, or to be used fund TO
help bring oct the Inventive genius of our State :
then would it be Of some for the brain workers
t. attempt 10 bring out some new ideas. and enable
them TO be brought before the public for the general
benefit; and all moneys 50 used woud be more
than repaid by the large increase of gold which
would be taken out.
The chlorination process discovered by Plaatner,
Is being worked with good results at Grass Valley
and other places mt it is both expensive and SLOW,
and does mol meet the requirements Of large mine.
The barrel grinding and superbeated steam, or Ry.
ersou process. is doing good work at Marip0sa.
The yield of gold is tar larger than before but
the great loss OF quicksilver. by valiteration. IS
serioas drawback the process is also slow and the
machinery expensive.
What is needed is some way TO work ten to TWEEN
ty of snlpharet rock per day in the mills Let
an offer be made, such as will bring out talent and
research. Then and only then may We expect re
suits. The urgency Of the case is very great, and
such cause should bring 10 the inventor large
pecuniary reward.

Mr.. EDITOR I would fain drop tear 10 the
memory of departed summer. and hail with delight
the arrival of our lovely. pleasant winter We
look up aud see the pure blue Italian sky We look
around and behold the varied tints in which the TO-
Iiage is dressed we look upon the earth, and 10
rich carpet of green meets our eye. Is there an
other cline where nature so modestly robes as she
disrobes where the years grow so gracefully old
in which centres so much beauty,
There is beauty in the guIlies bearty the cliffs,
beauty in sun and shade;
In rocks and rivers, and plains al
earth is drowned in beauty"
At present our little township is very quiet the
political excitement is over and nothing left rs for
discussion but our land titles. great Railroad
hobby has been mounted in our midst bat think
failed to carry its rider fast far We do not fear
this creature of the imagination-this gotten up
goblin to frighten sguatters on the public do
main" All We ask is right and justice, and these
we are satisfied we will, in time obtain.
Our pride, our hope, our joy are in our village
school. We love it with love, to describe which
would require poets pen. This is not mine. Il
has grown with our growth and strengthened with
with our strength. We have "a tched its struggles
from crawling babyhood to its present upright po-
siton 1t now stands proud monument to the
solid talents and indeatgable energy Of its present
directress, Miss Sarah NJ. Wells. On Friday after
noon, the patrons of our school met at Franklin
Hall to witness private examination Of the pu-
pills. It was pleasantly, well spent afternoon,
Order and quiet reigned throughout the school
ROOM The examinations in the different studies
gave general satisfaction to parents and the recita
tions much pleasure. understand that it IS the
intention of Miss Wells TO set apart one Friday in
each month for the examination Of her pupils, TINS
enabling parents to Judge of their children's i'm
proyement. This consider another of the macy
happy arrangements made in our school by our
systematic ''schoomarm We can spend pleas
ant-ave profitable afternoon each month in oar
little schoolroom feeling that we are not intrud-
ing upon the regular exercises of the day. We no
ticed, on Friday quite an additional improvement
in the appearance of the Hall. Its walls were
hung around with charts and maps, which certain
" must greatly facilitate the progress of students.
for well we know
"precepts and rules repulsive to a child, but
happy illustration winne;h him"
Let us hope that with our little school it may be
always thus May we continue to be blessed with
teachers who will inculcae in the hearts of our
children the principles OF strict morality.
For character groweth day by day, and all
things aid in its unfolding;
And the bent unto good or evil mnst be
given in the hours of infancy.

And the Scared and crooked oak will tell of
