bates Military History.

But few persons not acquainted with the
dark and crooked ways of Pennsylvania legis-
lation are aware that there is now being pre-
pared, under the supervision of ono Samuel
P Bates, military history Of the Pennsyl-
vania volunteers who served in the late re-
bellion.
1t seems that during the session of 1864
a clause was inserted in the appropriation
bill authorizing the Governor to appoint
some competent person to prepare a military
history Of the organization of the Pennsylva-
MIA volunteers and militia who have been in
the field, and who shall be paid sum not
erceeding Twenty-Five hundred dollars for such
service. At 6rst sight this would seem to be
a trihing matter, but it is bound to end in a
stupendous fraud upon the treasury. II any
man supposed that it was intended at the
beginning 10 complete the work for twenty
five hundred dollars he was not among the
initiated. 1t was simply the entering wedge
of a terrible vent in the treasury-merely
beginning Of the end. Accordingly, at the
session Of 1887. the sum Of three thousand
dollars was appropriated for the same pur-
pose, and at the session of 1868 an addition
al appropriation Of SIR thousand fire hundred
dollars was made 10 pay clerks and other in
cidental expenses. thus making the sum of
ttoelre thousand dollars already appropriated
for this purpose. More than four years have
elapsed since this long tailed rat took shelter
under the public meal,tub and we learn from
the Harrisburg PItrlot that the historian has
progressed no further than the fitch reei-
ment, and has published the first volume of
his work, containing over thirteen hundred
pages.
This is huge job, and will cost the State
at least fifty thousand dollars. Let no man
delude himself with the idea that no mora
appropriations will be made in aid of Bates
history. He has got the machine in fpll
operation, and its wheels will be kept well
creased by Radical legislature. Just as
certain as the next legislature meets lust so
sure will the inevitable Bates make his an
pearanee, knocking at the doors of the trea-
sury, with the second volume of his bistor,,
in his hand, and his Radical friends will Nv
nOunce the magical words, g Opea Sesame ,, |
Inc whole thing is ap impudent swindIa and /
rOooery upon the tax payers of the Com

know not, neither do we care. In this State

SUDDENLY BECAME RIcH-Judge La
trobe, a well known American iurist, died
some time since in Europe while travelling
on the continent. and it was ascertained at
the time his will was read that he had be-
queathed a considerable amount of his prop
erty to Miss Verde S. Gelter. of Cumberland
county, Pa. The matter was the subject of
several articles at the time in the New York
papers, but time passed on and nothing
further was heard in relation to the matter,
the truth of tho news of the young lady's
good fortune began to be doubted Recently,
however, all doubts have been Set a. rest by
the arrival of the papers of administration
of Judge Latrobe's estate, and it is proved
by them that Miss Gelter has fallen heir to
large portion of the Judges very valuable
property. and that the lady is now independ-
emily wealthy for life.

Just and patriotic pride in all that relates to
it. When Bates comes 10 write the history
of the organization and subsequent career Of
that strong arm Of the military force of Penn
sylvauia we trust that he will do it full and
ample justice. Let him remember that as
Napoleon had his "Old Guard" SO had Cam
