More "Iron Clad

And now comes CANDY with his little
joker game of the iron clad. All mem
bers of the Virginia Legislature who
can take the Test Oath are to be allow,
ed to qualify at once. Then if they con-
stitute a quorum they ratify the Fit
teenth Amendment, elect United States
Senators and adjourn. After that, the
disqualified members are to remain in a
state of animated suspension until Con.
gress admits the State. Then they are to
qualify without taking the "iron-clad."
If no quorum of Test Oath eligibles has
been elected, the whole business is to be
done over again. An election will be held
to fill the places of those who cannot
qualify under CANsY's ruling.

by which the revolutionary attempts to break

the bills under consideration provides that

sentative, who SHALL for the purpose of pre-
venting a quorum, fail or refuse to qualify,
or who shall resign for that purpose, shall
be deemed guilty of misdemeanor and sub
ject to a fine of not less than $1,000. The
bill has created a sensation in the Legisla-
ture second only to the Observation-Disclosures
ment, and the Democratic members may re-
sign to prevent its passage.

DoS'T LIKE IT.-The Montreal Gazette
publishes Mr.. Summers speech, crediting
him with being the spokesman of General
Grant. 1t charges that the Senator, with
words of peace on his lips" exhibits an in
describable bitterness, and marvellous word
skill to fire the American heart against
Britain, while he puts the demand in such a
form that it is impossible it can be CON-
piled with. The whole speech, the Gazette
thinks, shows "a desire for an open ques-
ton with Great Britain. Very likely. The
question is far from being closed.

Railroad Company are negotiating for Vir-

Railroad, amounting to S2,000,0 900, and in
the Blue Ridge Railroad, amounting to ST.
674,0O0, and that the directory of the Ches-
apeake and Ohio Railroad contemplate
making the transfer. The inducement held
out Is that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, if the sales are made, will build road
rom Pittsburgh to Charleston, on the Ka-
nawha, or some other point in West Virgin
Ia, connecting their road with the Chesa-
cake and Ohio Road.

MARVELLOUS INDUsTRY-It is scarcely
necessary at this day to say anything in
praise of Webster's Unabridged Quorto
Dictionary, lS40 pages, and 1000 engrav-
ings. Having come into possession of a
copy of the latest edition, we carnot refrain
from expressing our admiration at the mar
relous industry and learning which such a
book must have called into demand In
the book line, this Dictionary deserves a
place amongst the trumphs of the century
The publishers part OF this ponderous vol
ume has been done with beauty and sub
stantialness which also deserves special
commendation. Reading the Dictionary"
with this edition of Webster before you, is
exceedingly interesting pastime. A copy
of it must certainly be considered to belong
to the appointments of every intelligent
family. Its cost is $l2, but it is cheap at
that prlce.-4Horautan

SURPLUS GoLD.-The Secretary of the
Treasury, Mr.. BOUTWELL,, having got rid of
the Office seekers, has now time to attend
to his proper business He finds that gold
is accumulating far too rapidly in his vaults,
and he is perplexed to know what to do
about it. He has decided to sell some of it
to relieve the Plethora. This is very well,
but why couldn't Mr.. Boutwell, wait a lit
tie while. If we should get into war with
Spain and England he could dispose of his
gold very easily. We should not have a
surplus very long of any sort, except of
greenbacks, which would multiply at rate
that would delight SPRAGUE's heart, while
Government bonds would swoop down so
low as to give the Secretary little trouble
on their account

still in good repair The Minot family still
hold possession of it. In 1910 it was at
tackled by three Indians during the absence
of the male portion of the family. A fe-
male servant and several children were in
the house. The girl hastily barricaded the
door, and seized a loaded gun The first In
dian attempted entrance by an open window,

face by the girl Another savage who ap-
peared at the window was shot dead and

Cl.EARFIELD, PA, APRIL 2s, 1869.
Our Canals.

The North american says we have in the
United States between thirty five hundred
and four thousand miles of public and pri-
vate canals, OF which somewhat over eleven
hundred, or nearly third, are in Pennsyl-
vaEia. The canals in this State cost up
wards of S3l 200, 900 and those of the coun-
try represent more than 500, ,OO0, 900, ex-
elusive of all that have been OF are being
constructed in California. The cheapest cost
more than $4,000 per mile, while the
Chesapeake and Delaware rose to S2O3, 7O3
per mile, and the Lachine to S235, 934 for
each of its niac miles. They vary SO to 100
feet wide at the surface, from 81 to 10 feet
IN depth, and the boats that ply upon them
in some cases rise TO 500 tons burden.
On this subject the Pittsburg Gazette re-
marks that until within a very late date the
importance of canals for the moving of
treights was greatly under estimated, and
few there were but believed that they would
be entirely abandoned as useless before the
march of railway improvements 1t has
been found, however, that these internal
systems of communication have not outlived
their usefulness, but as means for the
transportation of heavy freight at cheap
rates, are vastly superior to railroads the
disadvantage of slowness is the only great
drawback to canals, but it is highly proba
BILE that steam will soon take the place of
horse power and that cheap and compar-
sdvely swift water carriage will be establish
ed to meet the imperative demands of the
times. Pennsylvania. owning nearly a third
part of the four thousand miles of canals in
the United States, is deeply interested in
bringing them to greater perfection and
usefulness aud our people would hail with
pleasure and satisfaction any improvement
in the system which looks towards cheaper
transportation

No EXCHANGE Srcrarr,ps

No EXCHANGE OF SECURTIEs.-Secre-
tary Boutwell, has issued an order directing
that there shall be no exchange of securities
TO ensure the public deposits in national
banks. This order is based upon the grounds
that, as the securities withdrawn are gen
orally more valuable than those deposited,
the security to the government is practically
weakened, and because of the additional
risk incurred in handling and transporting
the securities, besides the time of public Of
fcers occupied in attending to these ex-
changes.
