army and the French army of the Loire,
This latter seems to be much the most
efficient army the French now have,
and its entire destruction has doubtless
been determined upon by the Prussians.
AT first the accounts of the battles were
favorable to the French, but later adj
vices show decided Prussian successes.
Paris will probably be compelled to sur
render as soon as the French army OF
the Loire is destroyed.
The Prussians demand the abroga-
tion of the treaty of 1856, which ex.
cludes its war vessels from the Black
Sea. England raised clustering op-
position, even threatening war, but its
valor suddenly cooled before the firm
attitude of the Russian Bear, A Con.
gress of the "great powers" is to be

The Pope is firm in his attitude of re.
fusing terms with the Italian King.
He disdainfully rejects all propositions
made to him, and, powerless in arms,
fights his battle by communicating
all who enter upon his former territory

pect of a settlement during the life OF

over the arm and shoulder exposed to

the cold as effectually as would heavy

FINDING OF SIX HUMAN SKELE-

Updegraff, on the river bank, they ex-

further on, they discovered five more.
They were about three feet under

in that place, it is supposed they had
been killed by Indians about the time
of the Wyoming Massacre-now some
50 years since-and buried in the sand
on Long Reach. They are doubtless

is rather too independent to suit the
party masters. In late issue, reply

TO charge that has often been made,
but never before confessed:
"But what does the Tribune say to the
fact that barely year and month age
its friends in this city deliberately
"counted in" a Governor. The fact is
notorious. The men who did it are
well known; and some of them have
been rewarded with high position.
What better can we do than apply the

tion TO that transaction ?"

The Living Issues of the Dav.

In a speech at Albany, Gov. HoFF-
MAN uttered sentiment which ought
to be pondered by all good citizens, and
made the chart of their future political
action. GAS we bury our dead out OF
sight," he said, "whether they be friend
or foe, SO it behooves a great party to
bury dead issues, and direct its energies
to dealing with the living facts and
questions of the day. ."-E,rchange.
If people who get off gassy speeches
about dead and living issues would en-
ploy their time in telling us what "dead
issues" are being discussed or consid-
cred, and what "living facts and ques-
tions" are omitted from discussion and
consideration, they would be much
more profitably employed than in CIV
ing currency to such meaningless plati-
tudes as the above.

The Crammers.

| If it be q common complaint that pa
rents of children sent to public schools
are obliged to devote a large part of
their time to teaching their children,
nobody is at fault save the parents
themselves. They are not compelled to
| "cram" their children or to suffer any
one else to "cram" them. No task is
reasonable that requires pupil to ap-
ply itself beyond regular school hours.
Were parent to compel child to take
a full meal out of each course of dim
ner of six courses, what shout of in
dignant censure would go up. Yet in
what does this system of examining
children with half dozen branches of
study differ from the other? In moth
ing except in intensity-the damage in
the latter case being greater and often
irreparable.
Life is long enough to afford every
man and woman an opportunity 20 gain
all the kno wledge they need to prose-
cute creditably the business of life. If
life is not long enough for this, then
there is stupendous blunder some
where in the makeup of human af-
fairs. But life is long enough; and the
blunder lies in supposing that it lacks.
People appear to forget that with a
fair knowledge of the elementary
branches child can, if given proper
books, obtain all, or nearly all the
knowledge of geography, philosophy,
astronomy, and the complementary
sciences it needs, without a particle of
task-work. There may not be royal
road to learning, but it is cruelty to
pave the beaten way with sharp flints
and thorns. The objection to the topi-
cal mode of imparting knowledge is
that it is slow. None too slow, good
people. You demand that your chill
dren shall be converted into prodigies,
and complain when they sicken with
brain fever, and die, or recover to plod
along on the dull level of idiocy. The
examining process is simply an organ
lied attempt to force gallon into a
quart measure. 1t may be partially
done, with care, no doubt. The quart
may be expanded somewhat, but the
catastrophe is not far away.
Parents have the remedy for cram.
ming in their own hands. Children
never leave the sphere of parental con,
troll in such matters. Few would stand
inactive while task-master compelled
a child to bear burdens beyond its phys
ical strength. Why hesitate to reduce
the number of studies when a pupil is
overtasked? Parents have no just rea-
son for complaint, because it is entirely
within their sphere to remove all cause
of complaint. The difficulty lies in the
demand for prodigies, which can only
be furnished at a risk.-PhiladeiphiC

MONTGOMERY, Alabama, must be an
exceedingly pleasant place in which to
reside. Some of the sweets of the place
are thus described by the Mail;
SIT is no unusual thing to see the
poorer class of white girls arrested by
negro police in this city, locked up or
led about the streets by a lusty negro,
with club in his hand and star on
his breast, looking for their friends to
become their securities on some trivial
charge of disOrderly conduct, throwing
slops into the streets or something OF
the kind. This is one of the fruits OF
Radical rule, and is necessary to concil-
late the sons of Ham and perpetuate
Radical power. On Sunday morning
last, six negroes, mounted and armed
with double-barrelled shot-guns, rode
through the principal streets of our city
with a young white man from the
country, whom they had arrested. They
tied his arms tightly behind him, and
one of the number held him by rope
tied around his neck. In this condition
they had brought him about twenty
five miles, TO jail"

Auditor and Surveyor General.

A discussion has been started by the
Lycoming Standard, and followed up
by many other Democratic journals, as
to who should be the next Democratic
candidates for these important positions.
So far as this discussion is personal to
the editor of the Columbian he desires
to say that no position of honor that can
be conferred.upon him would be regard
ed by him as highly as the one he now
holds, and that he is not conscious of
any good reason why some one more
ambitious of that sort of distinction
should not be preferred before him for
the Auditor Generalship. Innately,
thoroughly and comprehensively despi-
sing men who set themselves up as can
didates and solicitors for such popular
distinction as is suggested, the editor of
the Columbian begs to be dropped from
the list and to be permitted to perform
his duties to the public as an ever work.
ing and faithful private in the ranks.
He owes much to his editorial friends
for their kindness and generous good
will, but would greatly prefer that they
would look elsewhere for candidates.
What is wanted in the premises is
able, energetic and thoroughly compe-
tent men as candidates, who will devote
all their time and talents to the dis
charge of the duties imposed upon
them, and in whom the public have the
fullest and most undoubted confidence
Such are always the strongest candid.
ates before the people, and give most
strength to the party if elected. Give
us iit and unselfish nominees, men OF
too high a sense of honor to neglect
duty, for these alone will serve with a
motive only to the public good, and no
others should be elected. Then success
and the public good will be assured.

The Ring for Mercur.

| TO The Editor of the Columbian AT
the October election the Ring achieved
a perceptible result in Bloomsbury, in
the vote upon Congressman. Whereas
for some years there has been a Demo-
cratic majority in the town, varying
from ten to twenty, it was to have been
expected that respectable majority
would have been given at his home, to
our candidate for Congress, at that elcc-
ton. He had been regularly and fairly
nominated by the district conference,
he possessed ability, and his political
fidelity was unquestionable. Nor was
he obnoxious in social life, and for that
reason Objectionable to any considerable
number of voters. On the contrary, he
received upon personal grounds the
support of a respectable number of Re-
publican neighbors-at least twenty to
thirty in number-yet MERcUR secured
through the active, Jealous and treach-
erous action of the Ring, a majority of
thirty-one in Bloomsbury; and Brad
ley's newspaper-the Ring organ-re.
joiced greatly over the result! The
treacherous allies and associates of the
Radicals, mostly voted outright for
MERCUR, though few of them, five
in number,) threw away their votes up
on Col. PIoLETT, (who was not cam
ddate,) thus contributing half their
electoral power in the same direction.
The performances upon election day
were instructive if not edifying but
perhaps the veil had better be drawn
over the disgraceful scene, in which a
little money, base treachery and good
deal of whiskey were enlisted in the
service of the Ring.
Similar treachery in small way ex-
hibited itself at Berwick, as shown by
the election returns. The Congressional
vote there might induce us to think
that the Ring had established branch
in that ancient village, the perform
ances of which were to be modelled up
on the parent Ring.
The moral of our tale is this: That
without discipline, without the applica-
ti'h vi oOuhu piAhSiplSo uhIi iuico vi ao-
sociated action, corrupt and selfish in
terests will assail and weaken party Or
ganization that unlimited indulgence
by party to treachery in its ranks, is
unwise and suicidal, and not magnani-
nous or praise-worthy; and that the
time has arrived for party discipline to
be invoked, and to perform its appro-
pirate Office Of conservation and de-
fense.
An intiexible rule should be adopted,
that men who do not steadily and truly
vote for and support the party nomina-
tions, shall not be allowed to assist in
making them. We refer to nominations
strictly political, in which class nom-
ination for Congress maniiestly belongs;
and we say that no nominal Democrat,
whether associated with the Radical
Ring or not, should be allowed to vote
at delegate elections for the time being,
or un til he shall distinctly show "by
his works" fidelity to our party organi-
zation. Such rule should be adopted
by the County Convention, which it ia
said is to be called by the Standing
Committee for the amendment of our
rules of nomination. A.
