SOCIAL SCIENCE-RECRU1Ts WANTED
Hon. John A. Poor has received from Henry
Willard, the able gentleman who acts as Re-
cording Secretary of the American Social Sci
ence Association, a note stating that the mem.
bers of that Society would be glad to recruit
its ranks in this State. Certainly there are
many men and women among us who are fitted
to become active and valuable workers in such
cause-a cause which, at the worst, is only
second to Christianity itself. The American
Association has its headquarters in Boston. 1t
was founded in 1865 on the model of the Brit
ish Association, founded in 1857 The Consti-
tuition Of the Association declares its objects
to be ''to aid the development of Social Sci.
ence and to guide the public mind to the best
practical means of pr ,moting the amendment
of laws, the advancement of education, the
prevention and repression of crime, the refor.
nation of criminals end the furtherance of
public morality, the adoption of sanitary regu-
lations ana the diffusion of sound principles
on questions of economy, trade and inar ce;
to give attention to pauperism and the topics
relating thereto; to bring together the various
societies and individuals now interested in
these objects for the purpose of obtaining by
discussion the real elements of truth, by which
doubts are removed, conflicting opinions har-
monized and common ground afforded for
treating wisely the great problems of the day."
This is what cast-iron bigotry and conserva-
tism call "infdelty," but really it appears to
be infidelity of curious sort
BY the way, it may be news to some of our
readers to learn that a movement is on foot in
this city for the formation of local Social
Science Association. In few days we shall
be able to give full particulars.

CAPITAL PUNIsHMENT.-The subject of cap
ital punishment will be brought before the
Legislature this winter by some of the ablest
and most influential members of the House,
who are in favor of removing that relic of bar
barism from our statute books. We have no
doubt that Gov. Chamberlain will cheerfuly
acquiesce in any measure that seems wise to
the Legislature after an adequate discussion of
the subject He is not man who will make
an Andrew johnson of himself" by rushing to
the veto power as means of defeating the will
of the neOnle.

PENNSYLVANIA has general law permitting
the organization of railroad companies without
special acts Of Incorporation. 1t has been
found to work admirably. The law was passed
last winter, and during the year that has just
elapsed only six companies have organized un-
der it. Formerly good many schemes for the
incorporation of railroads were merely "jcbs,' %
aud engaged the time and attention of the
Legislature to no, purpose. The terms upon
which a company may organize and 90 to work
under the general law amount to guaranty
of sufficient means and an intention to COM
plete the work. Meanwhile the members of
the "third branch" are not so numerous as
formerly,

to put in the box, the driver will change their
money for them and then they can deposit
their fare in the box. BY paying attention to
this rule they will much oblige the company

the grain on either side of the track.

IT is seldom that we use the columns of this
paper to puff" or notice the Thousand and
one" articles known as Patent Medicines. We
however, vary from our rule in the present
case, that we may call attention to the article
known as "S. T.-1S6O-X., Plantation Bit
ters." We desire it understood that we do so
without any solicitation or promise of benefit
from the proprietor or other interested parties.
We simply do it as an &C of duty towards
those who are laboring under physical disabil
ty, weakness, and the various complaints aris-
ing from impurities of the blood. Having
used the Bitters at the instigaton of a friend
(and, we confess, with some misgivings at the
outset) we found them most valuable medi.
cal compound, and to our great satisfaction
accomplished the object for which they were
used.
