The Shifts Of Rsdicalism.

The unscrupulous management Of the
Radical party, manifests itself on every
hand. It's policy is shaped exclusively
with an aye TO retaining its power, and
to this object all its purposes aud all
It's energies are bent, The power and
patronage of the government are used
without stint, aud the Treasury itself
is used to promote the same end under
appropriations for various objects by
Congress. Tho Frsedmen's Bureau is
one Of these party engines. 1t has
been turned To party account, and viii
be held on to by the Radicals as long
as they can make it available towards
lingering the public funds and securing
through il the frecdmen's votes. 1t
may undergo modification, but in one
form or another, it will be made to do
duty in q party sense, at least till after
another Presidential contest A con-
temporary says Of it:
It is Just possible that the law in relation
to the Freedmen's Bureau viii be repealed
this session Of Congress. The longer con.
tinuance OF this outrage, at least in its pres
ent shape, will hardly be tolerated. But

Gds--We have many times thought
that ii was a'disgrace to the well.kuown
enterprise Of our citizens, that town
Of this size should be SO completely
given over to darkness on cloudy or
moouless nights. No town Of its pop.
ulation in the State is without gas works,
and even some that do not number near
as many inhabitants, on the Eastern
Shore, are lighted with this best Of IL.
luminators. Our payements are far
from level, though there has been con-
siderable improvement made lately, and
the curves and bends with the occasional
projections in the way of porches, eel.
lar.doors and accumulated goods boxes,
have not been mapped out; so that it is
sometimes almost impossible, even for
one native to the sod, to make out his
reckoning. A stranger invariably has
to take a guide, or in some localities he
would literally fall into the ditch. Gas,
in thickly built town like ours, would
certainly pay company a good profit
on the necessary outlay to put it in the
houses Of our citizens, us the entire cost
of the works would not be over six or
eight thousand dollars. Added to the
convenience, it would doubtless be a
great saving of money, aud certainly OF
trouble. The coal oil which is so uni
versally used amongst us--when lamps,
chimncys, wicks, aud time are added
is by far more costly than gas, to say
nothing Of its Objectionable smell aud
dangerous character. Almost every
mail brings US some accident from coal
oil explosions. Perhaps at first some
would object to using it, but after u
short time they would change their
minds. Now that the railroad is to be
extended to Williamsport the work
should be commenced at once, so as to
be ready by the time it is finished
Coal could be purchased at the mines
at a very moderate price aud the cost
Of transportation would be only small
consideration. Some time ago, we be.
