lure, increasing the rate to per cent.
This strikes us as a move in the right
direction. So long as the rate in this
State remains at 6 per cent, while
New York and New Jersey have by
law fixed IL at I yer cent, we cannot
expect surplus capital seeking invest
ment here. As il now stand New
York and New Jersey are rcaping
the benefit of our capital while we
are suffering from the want Of il.
True, our rate is but six per cent.
and the borrower is benefited to that
extent, but how many borrowers are
accommodated at this rate, and how
many pay much higher rate Is il
not probable that by increasing the
rate in this State to I per cent all of
the capital now seeking investment in
other States, because of the additional
one per cent, would be employed
here, and if so, would not the demand
be lessened, and in proportion to the
lessening Of the demand the rate of
interest decrease Borrowers would
find less difficulty in obtaining loans,
and lenders benefited by having
home investment. A law thus mutu-
ally beneficial is certainly one that
should receive general approval.

A PROBLEM FOR PENNSYLVANIA Sol.
EIERs.-A table has been prepared by
Hon. III. d. Washburn, member OF
Congress from Indiana, showing The
number Of additional bounty claims
which have been paid and rejected up
to the end of last year. From this ta-
bic it appears that Maine has had So
200 Of these claims paid, Now York
40, ,O3l, and Pennsylvania 81 ,555. The
disparity between the number of addi.
tional bountes allowed 10 Pennsylva-
mia and Maine, is striking indeed.
Our State furnished at least five times
as mary troops during the recent war
MS Maine, and yet comes in for but u
little more than one-half tho mum ber
of additional bounties paid the latter
State. What is the reason of this inc
quality? New York, too, although she
furnished six times as many troops as
Maine, gets some eight thousand less
additional bounties Is it because
Maine is a radical Yankee State, or
because old Fessenden controlled mat
ters in the departments at Washing
ton, that this remarkable disparity
existsy We hope our soldier friends
throughout the State, will be able to
solve the problem Perhaps some of
the Radical politicians who profess to
be their special friends, can give them
clue TO this riddle.

This political harlot aud social evil
siill continues 10 a0lict his neighbors
and friends alike Like the troubled
ocean, he constantly keeps casting or
mirc aud dirt
We observe BY the last numbct Of
tho journal, that he has again taken
tho liberty of vcntilating a cargo OF
his spleen against his neighbors. Old
dead issues must bo revived TO cover
up present iniquities The domestic
peace must be disturbed, in order to
cover up public wrongs.
Thus the Court House question has
been revived and made the pretext
for two specific purposes, plainly visi'
BILE in the article alluded to. The first
is to prevent "loil" eyes and ears from
seeing and hearing the wrongs perpe-
trated upon the people by Swoope's
partisans at Washington and Harris
burg; and the second is to assail,
slander ana vilify Mr.. Thorn and Sen
ator Wallace and his friends. We
shall only refer to the former, being
well aware that the latter are able to
take care of themselves. Private
grievances and imaginary wrongs
must flow through some other chan
mel than our editorials. 1t is sheer
nonsense to talk about and revive the
Court House question to-day. The
liability of any one and all with refer,
enee 10 its erection has long since
passed away, and, as intimated above,
no public wrong, but private malice
alone, troubles the waters now. II
would be well for Mr.. Swoope to i'm.
pale himself within his own Legitimate
bounds and if he or his friends dc
not keep him within this sphere, 9th.
ers will, The rod is raised TO scourge
him, and nothing but his decent be.
havior will stay it. The continued
wholesale abuse of his superiors is an
infliction that will not be endured
much longer by this community. His
past and continued Trades against
private individuals IS an outrage, and
must coase-or with him rests the
responsibility.
The twaddle about the Court House
is mere nonsense. Tho justness o.
Mr.. Thorn's claim seems to be admit
ted by Swoopo himself, because he
and large number of his friends
signed the petition, and no partisan
question was attempted by any one.

New PASSENGER CARs.-The Penn.
sylvania railroad company are about
introducing new and improved passcn.
ger coaches on the through trains
between Pittsburg and tho cast
Twenty.four of these are being con-
structed at Altoona. The principal
improvement consists in the heating
arrangement. There are two stoves
or heaters hung under the floor of the
car, one at each side, from which pipes
are extended along the inside, at the
angle formed by the floor and the side
of the car. These pipes are enclosed
with q register to permit the escape
Of the heat, which is thus evenly dis.
tributed at the bottom of the car.
The pipes extend the whole length of
the car, and the heat first strikes
about the feet, where it is usually most
needed. The temperature of the car
can be kept much moro regular by
this system Of heating than by the
ordinary stoves, which are placed at
the doors, and usually Kept so hot
that no person can be near them and
bo comfortable. Another great ad.
uantage claimed for this improvement
is that in case of n smash.up the stove
will readily become detached from the
car, and thus prevent a confagration.

TRUTH-The Radical leaders, like
"old Nick sometimes tell the truth.
An accident of this kind happened in
the Rump Congress last week. Gen.
Garfield, Chairman of the Military
Committee, stated in q speech that
the agents of the Indian Bureau were
stealing money enough from the
Treasury annually to pay tho national
debt in ten years. This mild impeach-
ment brought a counter charge from
MI. Window, Chairman of tho Com
mittee on Indian Affairs, who stated
that Garfield and his military satraps
had stolen more from the Treasury
annually than tho whole Indian Bu-
reau cost the Government. We believe
these two captains of "1oilty and NOR
ality" tell the truth; but will their
deluded camp followers believe it and
turn them out?
