Wrong in Feeling and Still More
SO In Practice.

Wrong in Feeling and Still More
SO I'm Pra ctice.
One of the workmen in the Arsenel, at
Washington, lately made valuable inven-
tion which he promptly patented. The
Government needed it, and because OF this
fact, and that the inventor was mechanic
and not an officer, an attempt was made to
get it from him without pay. Upon his
refusal to part with the labor of his brains
the workman was promptly discharged
from Government service. The ground
assumed for this outrage was, that being
iu the employ of the United States, the
Government owned all his time, and that
whatever he did that was worth money
ought to inure to its benefit.
This assumption amounts to this: The
United States employs the man and pays
him for his work, and thus becomes his
master. All that slave earns belongs to
his owner, and thus, by a parity of reason
ing, all the mechanic earns after business
hours, is the property of the Government
that pays him.
The officer in command of the Arsenal al
Washington may be fitted by nature and
education to be good overseer of slaves
but he seems to have strange idea of the
rights of men who are not yet quite re.
duced to servile condition.

The Journal of yesterday copies In its
editorial columns, without comment, and
by so doing adopts as It's own, the follow
ing from the Philadelphia Morning POST
"The Republican party is pledged to Inn
partial suffrage, to the absolute obstruction
of all tests of color or race in the laws OF
the United States. That pledge will be
kept by the majority of the party; letter
and spirit will be kept. We will not break
1t for Grant; we will not break IL 10 OBTAIN
success; we will accept defeat before we
will consent to give up one Jot or principle
in our platform, or to wink at the slightest
infidelfty in our candidate. This, there
fore. we would say to all Republicans
stop before it is too late to stop. Refuse to
indorse Grant till Grant has indorsed Rad
icalism. Meet his silence with silence more
profound. Do not let America see the
shameful spectacle of the Republican par
ty moving in crouching procession to offer,
to beg, 10 bribe any man to become its lead
er and its candidate. Let us go our way,
and if General Grant believes as we believe,
let him come to u.s." r..-. f.t...--. e if9
These are brave words, but, at the same
time. the conviction in our mind is strong,
that they are mere words, written, as pie
crust is made, to be broken. VIA
| We judge this, from the fact that the
Journal, at the commencement of the late
canvass, was even louder mouthed than
now, in favor of Negro Suffrage. Yet, as
soon as the political skies began to darken
around the Ticket of its party, it declared
Negro Suffrage not an issue, in the face ol
the fact that when it, sugar coated by CAL
ling it Manhood Suffrage, was, by the action
of its own party, made the prominent one
to canvass. When tie elections are afar
off, the Journal editor is brave even unto
rashness-when it is near, his courage is OF
the BOB ACRES sort, oozing out at the
finger ends.
Gen. GRANT will not go to the Radicals.
Like MAHoMET, when he bade the noun
tain come to him, and his words failed to
move it from its deep seat in Mother Earth,
he compromisedt the difficulty by trudging
off to the mountain, so the Journal and its
Radical friends, failing to move GRANT to
commit himself on any subject of more
consequence than "MARsHALL Browns
slut's pups" and s'horses," will abandon the
darkey and CHASE, and go with its party
for availibity and against principle.

y A CLEVER ruse of the French Emperor,
which has delighted Paris, is related in the
foreign papers. It. seems that soon after
the Exhibition was opened it struck the
Emperor that it would be advisable, as
well as kindness to allow the army every
facility tor seeing it. Accordingly he cor
responded with the commissioners with
view to reduction of the tariff of admis-
sion for all soldiers in uniform. The COM
missioners were obstinate, and would not
aceede to the Emperor's request. Accord
ingly the Emperor took to strategy. A
battalion OF soldiers is required to guard
the Exhibition, and the Emperor gave or
ders that the battalion told off for this
duty should be changed every day. So the
soldiers saw the Exhibition for nothing.

Will he Back down at The Bidding
of Radio alism?

Mr.. Congressman ASHLEY has given no.
tice of bill to prevent the Legislatures of
the different States from changing Con-
gressional Districts after they are once
made. This is done to save his own head,
for any change of his District would leave
him out in the cold.
When the vote is to be taken on this
proposition, we will look with some curios-
ity to see if the name of Judge r. P. SPAL-
DING be recorded in the affirmative. On
the right of Congress to interfere with the
time, mode or manner of electing members
of Congress the Judge is strongly commit
ted. e-
In 1912, Congress passed law to force
the different States to elect their Congress-
men by single districts, some of the States,
Mississippi for-one, electing by general
ticket. When the Legislature of Ohio met
at the adjourned session, in the summer of
that year, the Judge came laden with GER
tain resolves, embodying the fact that
Congress had no right to interfere in the
matter of choosing Congressman, it being
a right reserved to and belonging to the
State, and that while Ohio would elect her
congressman by single districts, it was
only because it was her sovereign will
and pleasure to do, as she always had
done, in this matter, and that her doing so
was not to be taken as consenting to the
pretended right of Congress to meddle in
the matter. Judge SPALDING, because he
was the Speaker OF the House of Represen-
tatives, did not offer the resolutions, but
gave them to another. We saw them in
the possession of the Judge, and he read
them to us, as his convictions on the sub
ject. We have not seen them for years,
but will cheerfully reproduce them if the
Judge should so change his mind as to
vote as Radical at the bidding of ASH
LEY, for that which, as good lawyer, he
wholly repudiated years gone by. ...

A Prediciion that Will be Verified

The National Intesligencer, in acknow-
lodging the independent and patriotic ac-
ton of the liberal Republicans in the late
elections, predicts "that before the present
great controversy is closed, the bitterest
foes the Radicals will have to contend with
will be found in the Republican ranks
Misled as much by the force of party dis
cipline as by specious appeals to passions,
inflamed by the deadly strifes of war, the
great, high spirit of patriotism of the Re-
publican party will rise up in the very
majesty of its power to condemn the whole
scheme of reconstruction, which is exclu-
sive negro government" t@s

DULLNEss of trade prevails outside of as
well as in America. A letter from Glas-
Cow, Scotland, says that although the
price of cotton is nearly as low as it was
before the war, there is no demand for
goods, and the manufacturers are as badly
off for orders. and the operatives for work,
as they were in 1857. There is more starva-
tion in Glasgow and its neighborhood just
now than at any time for ten years past.

BELLAIR, Nov. IA, 1867.
DEAR SIR Oct. 30th, if am not mistake n
the date, the State Journal copies an ar
tlcle from Zanesville paper in relation to
the treatment of John Moore, Conductor
on the c. y. r. r. towards his mother. The
affair was family one, in which Mr.. Moore
has proved himself guiltless, and had the
editor of the Journal been gentleman he
would have withheld his comments, and
had Mr.. Moore been Republican pro-
sumo he would never have republished the
slander. It goes to show the meanness OF
the thing who wrote it, and does not in
jure Mr.. Moore one particle. either in the
estimation OF his employers or the public.
Mr.. Moore did his duty when he collect
ed full fare from the delegates, and would
have been censurable had he done other
wise. He is a favorite with the travelling
public and considered a gentleman by all
who know him. the Journals opinion to
the contrary Notwithstanding. And here
let me say the Conductors on the c. o. r.
r. are all gentleman, always attentive and
polite to their passengers, and men i'm
whom the Company has every confidence.
You may travel the whole country over
and where can you find more perfect
gentleman than Conductor Jones, who is
also Democrat. am sorry the Journal
stopped SO low as to try to injure the rep
utation of a man who was strictly comply
ing with the orders of his employers. Mr..
Moore is not politician and treats all men
r q i
ocrats would have been treated in the same
manner. The Journal man imagincs that
like himself all men are mean. NJ. HIT.

LONDON has dog law, and its leading
provisions are the following: The police
may take possession of any dog in the
street not under control, and detain it un-
til the expenses are paid. The police may
require dogs to be muzzled. Where dog
is .'apprehended' by the police wearing a
collar, letter is to be sent to the address.
When a dog has been in the possession
of the police for three days it may be
sold or destroyed. An important ad-
dition has been made to the effect
that on complaint to a magistrate that
a dog has bitten, or attempted to bite
any person. he may order it to be de-
stroyed. j..4

The true value of Mscf inery srplied to Watch
making Is not that by its use Watches are made
rapidly, but that they are ma de correctly, Very
lev people know why Waltham Watch should be
superior to any other In the first place. at Walt
ham the Watch is regarded as only q machine, to
be constructed like any other machine, on mechau-
ical principles. If the Watches are good, it is be-
cause the machinery is good. Of course there
must be no defect in the principle or plan of the
movement-no mistake in the sizes or shapes of
the pieces of which it is composed-nothing want
ing in their properties. and in their posi-
tions. These points thoroughly settled,,i
rests wholly with the machinery. constructed with
infinite diversity Of form and funrtion expressly
for the purpose. to produce the finished pieces. By
means of multiplying guages and microscopes. tests
and inspection for the detection of weir in the cut
ting tools, and for faults and flaws in steel or stone
are made to accompany the work in every stage
from beginning to end. As necessary result, the
Watch goes together perfect machine. Every
part is found to fit properly in its place. Every
pin may be pushed till it pinches, and every
turned home. Instead of sluggish and feeble ac-
tion. the bal ance. even under the pressure of the
liahtest handspring. vibrates with wide AMI free
motion, and the beat has the clear ringing sound
alwsys characteristic Of the W altham Watch. The
machine is a atimekeeper from the start. 3
This system of watch making is unknown in for
eign countries. and is entirely original with the
Waltham Company. The Company claim that by
it they produce Watches that cannot be equall ed

accurate and cheap, but is uniform in the mnutest
details, not easily damaged, and when repaired al
ways as good new. There are different grades
of finish in the different vareti of W atches made
by the Wsltham Company. as there are different
sizes and shapes to suit all tastes and means; but
every Watch that bears the genuine trademark of
''WALTHAM" is guaranteed to be good one, and
