looking coldly on virtue? When she goes home
she must hear the voice of the tempter saying IN
her ear what are you paling your cheeks for? 10
presume to value that which the world tramples be-
meath its feet Fool mankind respect appearances,
more than substances The very wantons, who
have become totally depraved, are higher in the
estimation of the world than she who sacrifices
comfort luxury, and the smiles of men at the shrine
of virtue.
How long this state of things will continue who
can tell? Why the virtuous mothers and wives
whom heaven has blessed with the good things of
the earth do not help and cheer those brave girls
to battle against tyranny and temptation is passing
strange. Why the fathers who respect virtue in
their daughters and the brothers who would die to
guard their sisters honors not show respect
to those who suffer all the sings and arrows" Of
"outragious fortunes is stranger still. For our
selves we never pass one of those working girls
that we do not feel like taking off our hats to her.
for she preserves that purity which is of Heaven
itself Surely as God looks into the souls of all and
judges according to position, He must take up his
abode in those pale temples that suffer for virtues
sake.
Man has hundred tongues to cry out against
wrongs inflicted on himself, but he is silent on the
suferings of woman.
While such things be "and overcome like
summer cloud' without exciting especial Won
der" there is something rotten in the State. That
every person who loves the good and hates the bad,
should be interested in raising all up there can be
no doubt A country, where honest labor and
virtue not respected is the road to ruin, no
matter what appearances may be. Such country
islke the vice which It worships PAINTED rotteness
When responsibility means appearances, and when
society goes the length of toleratng vice, when it
wears a respectable appearance, such society is
fostering cancer that in the end will sap its very
foundations, and destroy its life. America being
herself child, sprung from labor, and having no
higher heraldry than the ploughshare, should not
into luxury and vice e'er her toiling founders
are cold in the earth. Americans, then, above all
and women should protect and encourage and
cheer those working girls, whose pale faces like
silent accusers appeal to Heaven against that So
ciety that ignores them

ture organized to-day. In the Senate the
Hon. William +. Stevenson was reelected
president, and E. r. Hall clerk. In the
House, d. III. Pinnell was reelected
speaker, and W. p. Hubbard clerk.
Governor Boreman's message speaks on.
couragingly Of the renewed and increasing
prosperity Of the State. He recommends
the repeal Of the conHscation law Of 1863,
because it has never been enforced, Is
wholly imperative, aud embarrasses bust
ness, and he commends the propriety OF re-
pealing the usury laws, as repelling and
driving out capital and enterprise.
He says the revenue reports exhibit .
gratifying state Of the finances. During
the last year personal property increased
over twenty Ave per cent, and capital
eleven per cent. The new valuation OF
real estate shows Q very great increase
over the old, and he recommends an ener-
getic prosecution Of the work on the insane
asylum and penitentisry. He says the re.
port on the free schools shows gratifying
progress in the work Of education, and
urges the most liberal legislation in support
of schools and provision for the Agricul-
tural College endowed by Congress. He
advises the Legislature to provide for a
speedy geological survey of the State, and
to encourage immigration to the State.
The message concludes with an argu.
ment in favor of ratiiTing the amendments
to the Constitution Of the United States,
and says it was the absolute duty of Con-
gress to take control Of the rebellious
States after the war, and under the cir
cumstances the terms of restoration pro-
posed are not vindictiye or unkind, much
less unjust. Greater magnanimity was
never shown under kindred circumstances.

ABDUCTION CASE IN PENNSYLvANIA.-A
sensation was created in Girard, Pa, last
Friday by the abduction Of little girl
named Mcintyre, nine years Of age, daugh-
ter of NJ. F. Mcintyre, from one of the
schools of Girard. On the evening pre-
ceding, gentleman and two ladies arrived
at Girard by rail, and the next morning
one of the ladies consulted lawyer as to
getting possession of the little girl, she
claiming to be her mother. The lawyer
would not assist her, and the ladies then
called at the academy, when the young
Miss Immediately recognized one of the
visitors as her mother. The two ladies i'm
mediately left the school with the girl, and
took the first train to Pittsburg, en- route to
California, where the mother resides.
While in Girard, the lady stated she had
married Mcintyre some years ago in Michi-
gan, but left him with their daughter,
owing to i'll treatment, and started for Cali
fornia, where her relatives resided. The
husband followed, abducted the girl from
her mother, and moved to Girard.
Mrs. Mcintyre subsequently got q di-
vorce, married q wealthy gentleman OF
California, and for nearly year has been
hunting her child. How she succeeded in
finding her we have already stated. Mother
and daughter are now well on their way to
California. Mr.. Mcintyre, who remains
in Girard, stoutly asserts that the mother
of the child was murdered by the Indians,
while the lady in question holds and ex-
hibits her marriageocertificate as well as
the documents of her divorce from Mr..
Mcintyre. The fact that the little girl re-
cognized at the school her mother in the
lady who called for her would seem con-
elusive. These facts we condense from a
lengthy article in the Girard Spectator, and
respectfully submit them to Mrs. Alpha
bet Southworth as the basis for three
