"PUt Up" Bills.

Two bills have been introduced into
The Legislature, neither of which is IL
tended to be of benei. to the people Of
any part of the State. Both arc calcula-
ted simply to line the pockets of few
men, at the expense Of industry aud en-
terprise. The first of these measures is
an act to authorize the erection of boom
on the Allegheny river, similar to the one
now in operation at Williamsport on the
Susuuehanna The other is 10 create an
Inspector of oils at Philadelphia, with
deputies throughout the State. This bill
as first introduced directed tax of ten
cents barrel, for costs of inspection, to
be imposed on all oils. Ia the present
c5a3ition of the oil trade, such a tax
would realize 100000 year OF course
il would drive the oil trade so far as is
possible from the limits OF. our State
But the measure was so iuiquitous that it
was modified so as 10 provide that no more
than 50, 900 should be received as emolu-
ciCEts. i uS hEoL hcdSulC ID SSdiSSiJ IC7n

head waters OF the Allegheny are immense
forests. The design of the authors Of the
boom bill IS to make the timber OF these
forests pay iien, tribute As it is tloated by

A Democratic View.

The New York World has a Harrisburg
CORES nondent, who writes as follows:
"The Republican State Convention of
this State will meet in Phila lelphia,
March l1th, to nominate candidates for
AuGitor-G General aud Survey yor-G eneral:
and to select four delegates to represent
the State at large in the Republican
National Convention. The Curtin and
Cameron wings of the party have already
been brought into direct antagonism in
several of the counties which have elected
delegates. Cameron, though occupying
the dignifed position of an United States
Senator, must have his say in the local
politics of every county in the Common
wealth, and the bitter fights and divisions
which have already been witnessed are the
results of his arrogant and selfish interfer-
ence. The consequence is, and naturally
enough, bitter feud between the friends
OF Cameron and Curtin, the former press
ing the claims of General Geary for Vice
President, aud the latter seeking the
support of local delegates for the same
honor. Cameron counts among his sup
porters such men as John c. Kunkel,
Elisha W. Davis, Speaker of the House
Charles Gibbons, Benjamin Harris Brews-
ter, John Covode, Wayue McVeigh, and
George Lanaon, while Curtin ranks among
his adherents the soldier element of the
party, with William D. Kelley, Harry
White, j ohm Cessna, r. Biddle Roberts,
and like politicians. A decidly rich if
not very quarrelsome time may there
fore be expected upon the meeting of the
1lth of March Convention. From the
tone of the Radical presses, it is evident
that Grant will be indorsea for President.
There is no contest among the Rcpu 5lican
politicians for the nominations of Auditor
General and Surveyor General, and the
present incumberts, John F. Hartranft
and Jacob Nj, Campbell, will be renomi-
mated without opposition"

Free Railroad Law.

We acknowledge the receipt, from Hon.
Harry White, of the Free Railroad Law,
reported by Mr.. Coleman in the Senate.
1t provides that nine or more persons
may form an association to build a rail-
road. They are required to sign articles
setting forth the name of the company,
termiui of the road, years of intended
operation, amount of capital stock (Which
shall not be less than ten thousand dollars
for every mile of road), number Of shares,
places Of residence Of the President and
of at least six Of the directors, &c. These
articles must be acknowledged by three
OF the directors before competent officer
and filed in the Cfhce of the Secretary OF
State, and the articles shall constitute the
charter of the company
The articles the law provides shall not
be fled and recorded In the Office OF the
Secretary of State until at least ten thous-
and dollars of stock for every mile of
railroad proposed to be made is subscribed
thereto and ten per centum paid thereon
In good faith and in cash TO the directors
named in said articles OF association, nor
until there is endorsed thereon or annexed
thereto an affidavit made by at least three
of the directors named III said articles
that the amount of stock required has
been in good faith subscribed, and ten per
centum paid in cash thereon, and that it
is intended in good faith to construct or
to maintain and operate the road men
toned in such articles Of association,
which affidavit shall be recorded with the
articles of association.
The law gives the company the usual
powers granted to corporations of having
a common seal, sueing aud being sued,
buying and selling, etc, etc.

Corruption.

When certain very respectable citizens
Of Cambria county signed, in blank, the
petition OF Mr.. John j. Glass, afterwards
eryoneously filed out, cOutesting the seat
of Col Linton in the State Assembly.
our neigh Dor, the Freeman, and other of
our Democratic cotenl poraries, raised such
cry about corruption that one would
have thought the whole body polite about
to fall TO pieces from very ro;tenness.-
Ejaculations about the purity G. of the
Democratic party were as plenty as toasts
at a wine party. And sure enough, that
purity G. is made lamentably manifest
by the recent disclosures of the occasion

Well, indeed, might O'Mara be got out of

parts, keep himself out of the limits OIL

tior of the ballot is not the work of OBJ
scure men. The lights and leaders of

Consistent Action.

On Monday q week age, the following
preamble and resolutions we're offered in
the House Of Representatives at Harris
burg:
"FAereGs, 1t appears from the net of in
corporation by the Maryland Legislature,
ind by resolutions OF the Board OF Trustees
of the Antietam Cemetery. tina: it is intended
that rebel dead, who fell in the late unholy
struggie against the life of the nation, are TO
be Inferred within the same enclosure and
receive the same honors as bestowed by loyal
hearts and hands upon loyal dead there
FORE
"ResoIued, That our worthy Chief Nagis-
trate has, by the noble and patriotic stand
he has taken in refusing to expend the ap-
preparation placed at his disposal by the last
Legislature, placed the loyal citizens OF
Pennsylvania and all true lovers of liberty
everywhere under renewed obligations of
gratitude TO him, and given to the world
another honorable evidence Of his fearless
loyalty and uufiuching integrity to Princi-
PIE.
"Re:olped, That we most heartily endorse
the sctiou Of Gov. Geary in Withholding said
appropriation, and pledge to him our hearty
support, &c "
Our Legislature made an appropriation
last winter for the purpose OF aiding IN
the adornment Of Antietam Cemetery,
and the remo7al thereto of the bodies OF
the Union soldiers VINO fell in the battle
Of Autietam. In the meantime, by aid Of
the votes of rebel soldiers, Legislature
was elected in Maryland the members o!
which we're for the most part in hearty
sympathy with the rebellion. This Leg
islature, aided by the Maryland Board Of
Trustees of the cemetery, determined to
inter the rebel dead and pay them joint
hooors with those who fought and died
On the side Of the Uuiun. The very act
is fraud upon Pennsylvania. Governor
Geary wisely withheld the appropriation.
Yet every Democrat in the House declares
By his vote that between the rebel dead
and the Uuion dead there is no difference
both are alike worthy OF honor The
act is not simply an act Of respect to the
dead. bat is declaration of the estima-
tion in which Pennsylvania holds the
cause for which they fought. Every
rebels grave represents the cause :o1
which he died, every Union soldiers
grave the cause for which be yielded his
life When State or the nation at large
provides mouey for the. establishment ol
cemeteries for the Union dead, the act is
done because we honor those who fell in
their country's defence. But the Dem
ocrats of Pennsylvania would by their
acts teach this generation and all to come
in the future that the rebel is worthy ol
as much honor as he who fought for the

Truth GG History.

The U. s. troops engaged in the battle
of Chepultcpec, Mexico, experienced con-
siderable trouble in crossing bitches dug
by the enemy TO strengthen bis position.
In the rush and hurry Of the charge upon
that fortress, it was found necessary to
jump several of these ditches. John W.
GeaTy-then Lieut.-Colonel of the I'd
regiment Pa. Vols, now Governor of this
Sta'e-while attempting gymnsstic ex-
pertinent Of this kind, was so unfortunate
as to aligh:, not on the opposite bank, but
This uniucky circumstance has since been
eagerly seized upon by certain parties and
paraGed as an evidence of cowardce on
the part Of Geary. These parties, by
strange oversight, always forget to men
tion in the same connection that Geary
was not alone In his misfortune-that
scores OF battle-scarred veterans, better at
lighting than jumping, likewise failed to
clear the ditch. They also forget to men
tion that Geary speedily extTicated him
self from his unpleasant dilemma and
galautly led his men to the chargeAinto
II e heart of the iortress-to victory. Is
it fair?
Those who now stigmatize Geary as
coward and his Mexican career as "fail-
ure," are Democrats. Shortly after the
battle of Chepultepec, Geary ran for aud
was elected Colonel of the regiment
Ercry Democrat an the command Uotca for
him for that position Geary was then
Democrat. We mention this episode
merely to show that Democratic opposi-
tion to the M an did not arise from any
supposed action oc his at Chepultepec, but
from a totally different namely,
his change of politics, about the year '61, ,
from Democratic to Republican, Had he
remained firm in his allegiance to the
Democratic party, those who are now
seeking to belittle him would be singing
peans of praise in his behalf, the while
swearing he was the bravest man that
ever trod Mexican soil.
The career OF Geary in the late war was
most brilliant one, and proves him the
exact reverse of a coward. The Demo
Gratis may not admire the manner in which
| be dealt with the rebels, but they will
miserably fail if they attempt to write
him down. The dirt they throw at him
will turn to snow upon his escutcheOn.

DURING "Prce's raid" in 1864, a
skirmish took took place on the line Of
Charlton and Howard counties, No, some
four miles from Glasgow, in which one OF
the rebs was left on the ground danger
ously wounded IN the neck. While in
this condition, Miss Sarah j. Smith, a
school teacher in the vicinity, happened
to pass by, Seeing the wounded man,
she went to him and s,aunched his wounds,
probably saving his life. She remained
with him until near nightfall, when he
requested her to leave, as his companions
would probably come in the night and
take him away. If not, she would find
him where he was in the morning, living
or dead He said he was known by the
name of Tucker, but that his real name
was II. G. M'Donaid, and that he was
from Louisville, KY. Next morning NJ
Donald was gone, aud Miss Smith knew
nothing concerning him afterwards. y
few days ago, Miss Smith (who still
resides in the neighborhood) received a
letter from the administrator of Ii. q. NJ =
Donald, ST., informing her that she was
named in the will of the deceased as the
legatee of $50 900, in consideration of her
having saved the lite of his nephew and
only heir, the Fl. G. MDonald named in
connection with the incident of 1864.
This is all the story, and its correctness is
fully endorsed.

In very few weeks the Republicans
of Pennsy lvania viii meet in Convention to
nominate candidates for Auditor General
and Surveyor General. We have been
closely watching, lately, the expressed pre-
ferences of public men who represent our
organization in localities and by journalists
who usually reflect the will of the Repub-
lican party. From these sources we
gather that an almost universal feeling in
favor of Har:ranft and Campbell prevails
among Republicans, and that the renomi-
nation of these gentlemen for reelection
to the positions which they now occupy is
now concurred in and demanded by all
perts of the State If there are other
aspirants in the Republican party for
these positions we have not seen or heard
of such gentlemen, SO that We can, with
great propriety, endorse the preference
manifested in favor OF Hartranft and
Campbell. No State ever was served By
more faithful or upright officers, no party
ever had as represeh tatives of its respect
ability and patriotism, better men than
John T. Hartrauft and Jacob NJ Camp
bell, and they have reason, as have their
friends, to be proud of the maHly conf
deuce reposea in them by the masses of
the Republican party-I<e Gsard.

A LIST Of over two hundred bills
passed by the last Legislature and approx
ed by the Governor, is published in the
Harrisburg State Guard, not one of which
has become statute, on account Of the
failure Of the parties interested TO pay the
enrolment taxes upon them required by
law. Among these laws are a large
number Incorporating mining companies,
coal companies, railroad companies, gas
companies, turnpike companies and land
improvement companies.
In reply to Mr. Doolittle's attack ou
General Grant, Senator Nye told the story
of the attack on celebrated New Eng
land clergyman, who met his accusers by
asking them if they had ever seen dog
barking at the moon. "Oh, yes," they
answered, with q sneer. "Well, now, nv
friends, please tell me if you ever heard
of dog getting pear enough to the moon
