UNIVERSAL AMNESTY.

1t is now freely stated in official circles,
in Washington, that proclamation of uni
versal amnesty will soon be issued by Pres
ident Grant, in accordance with the general
wish of the dominant party. The Demo-
Gratis have, for some considerable time,
favored this measure, but the Republicans
feared to risk it until the Fifteenth Amend
ment was beyond peradventure. That
once done, there was little peril to be appre-
hended for the colored race, and there ex-
lists now no plain reason why the general
sentiment of the nation should not be re-
garded. The disabilities inflicted upon the
South never were intended, as we under
stood them, to be simply penal in their
character, but simply to secure obedience to
law, and when once there was no danger in
this regard. the necessity for them was over.
We hope, ere long, to record as fact, that
the last yestige of punishment for the re-
bellion, has been removed, and the whole
people once more nation of free citizens.

DEATH OF BISHOP KINGSLEY.

Scarcely had the Methodist Episcopal
Church of the United States, recovered
from the shock occasioned by the sudden
and unexpected demise of the gentle and
gifted Bishop Thompson, when the tele-
graph announces the deceaSe of another
more sudden still in the person of Bishop
Kingsley. According to the regulations of
their Board, Bishop Kingsley was deputed
to visit Episcopally, the mission stations of
India, China, and other foreign missionary
stations, and was on his way among these
far off lands, when he was attacked with
disease of the heart, and passed at once to
the realities of the world beyond us. The
Bishop was one of the most cultured men
of the church, and rapidly developing an
administrative ability which would soon
have forced his recognition as a power in
the land. He had been but about six years
in his present office, being elected at the
same time with DR.. Thompson whom he has
followed SO soon. His decease will leave
the Episcopacy of the Church with almost
an impossible amount of labor upon their
hands. Bishop Morris is by reason of his
great age, incapacitated from active work
and virtually exercises no supervision.
Bishop Baker is entirely paralyzed and
takes no part in the labor of his colleagues.
The entire supervision of 100000 mem
bers, with eight thousand regular clergy
men, their numerous mission stations in the
world together with presiding at over sew
enty annual conferences, in all parts Of the
Union, and overseeing all their affairs in
the intervals, devolves now upon Bishops
James, Scott, Ames, Simpson, and Clark.
No others can be elected until the next ses-
sion of the General Conference, which does
not meet for couple of years, and it will
easily be seen that an amount of work will
be required which will tax their powers to
the utmost. The particulars attendant
upon the decease of Bishop Kingsley are
not given, but there can be no doubt that
he died as he lived an eminent example of
the power of the christian religion.

SINGING B1RDs.-How sweet and cheer
full is the voice of the robin, the blue-bird,
and other feathered songsters at this season
of the year, after a protracted storm, as
they warble at sunrise or the close Of day.
The invalid almost ready to cross the river,
and enter through the pearly gates of the
New Jerusalem, is reminded Of the angelic
music Of the heavenly sphere while listen
ing to the sweet singing Of birds, as the
pelden-orbed sun declines beneath the
western horizon. The sad and disconso-
late one bereft of friends and loved ones,
listens to the song of birds when no other
earthly comfort is near. The farmer boy
as he crosses the fields at sunrise whistles
with renewed energy and inspiration, when
the air is filed with the melody of the
early songsters. AS substitute for this
the pent up denizens of tho cities have their
Gagged canary birds and robins, but their
songs however sweet and melodious, have
not that charm of freedom which rings out
upon the morning air from tho birds which
fly from tree to tree and from grove to
grove.
Our attention was called to the above sub
ject by the many voices of canary birds as
we passed the Telegraph Office lately, where
Mr.. Richard Borden has room full of
sweet singers, which he is disposing of to
our citizens and others.

THE INCOME TAx,

The discussions in Congress upon the
perplexing subject of taxation has evolved
at least, one general public sentiment upon
the question, which is that the 'lncome
Tax as it is called is especially dlstasteiui
to the people. Taxation in excessive 1ornis
is not pleasant to anybody, but its present
need is recognized by the people, and
their is sort of reluctant willingness TO
pay it, but coupled with this is decided
unwillingness to pay it in forms when de-
mand a scrutiny into the affairs, which most
men desire to keep secret from their feiiow-
men. When they buy sugar there is no op-
lection to paying a specified tax upon 1t
or liquor so that the tax is felt only IN the
HIGHER price of the article, or indeed any
thing'else, so long as the. amount is as
sessed upon the article, and then the people
left to use it or not to use it at their dlscre-
ton. But. to many a man the inqulsinon
into how much money he made or lost du-
ring the last year, is a species OF mperti-
nence that the people never meant to con-
fide to the rulers, except under the most
positive necessity, if indeed they ever meant
to eontide it all. Certainly it was never in
tended to last longer than the necessity
which gave it birth, and no one pretenos
that anything like this is in existence now.
In numerous cases the publication OF the
facts involved in the profits or losses OF the
firm is disastrous to the last degree.
man with abundant property may from un-
forseen causes, owe money during the year
and vet have enough to pay all his debts,
and allow him to go on and retrieve ms
losses, yet if his property were sacrihceo a'
the time bankruptcy would be unavoioa-
BILE. Once let it be known that he is losing
money, and his creditors become clamorous
for their money and the man is ruined. In
a hundred ways which may be readily con-
ceived the operations of an inquisitoral
law like this. reyolts the sense and feeling
of the American people, and in all direc-
tions they are insisting upon its abrogation.
Whether the financial Solons of Washing
ton, will have the Judgment to see this is a
question: Out II Will DcSOiuC HCSSoS~AJ w
see it soon, for in number places the issue
is being made in the candidate nominated
for Congress. The people do not ask to be
relieved from raising all the money needed,
either for the carrying on the government,
or the interest upon their debt, or even for
the payment of a part of its principal if
that be deemed necessity-they are willing
to paw it all in other forms, but they insist
on being relieved from paying it in way
which is at once insulting and disastrous
We have not much hope that the present
Congress will do much in the matter, though
it may relieve some of the more odious fea-
lures of the law, but we feel sure that by
the time another Congress shall assemble,
that the public sentiment will be so unmis-
takably declared, that the men who form
that body will feel it positive necessity to
abrogate the law.

THE MCFARLAND CASE.

The trial of Mr.. Mcfarland for murder
which has occupied nearly fortnight, in
the Courts of New York, has been one of
the most intensely exciting which has for
long time been known in that murder loving
city. The facts of the case are familiar to
most of our readers, and we need only
glance at them here. Mr.. Richardson one
of the most talented public writers of the
nation, but unfortunately tinctured with
'sFree Love- doctrines, became enamored
with the wife of Mcfarland, who returned
his guilty attachment. From all appear
ances the intimacy was criminal. At all
events the lady with the open assistance Of
Richardson, applied to the easy going west
ern courts for divorce from her husband,
after which both parties openly stated they
intended to marry each other. Mcfarland
who appears to be a passionate man became
possessed of some of the correspondence be-
tween the parties, which proved to him their
previous guilt, and after learning that the
divorce had been obtained, was so mad
dened by the circumstances that he sought
out Richardson, and shot him, from which
wound he died in a couple of days. Previ-
ously to his death however, he had Henry
Ward Beecher called and was married to
his paramour, who now bears his name.
On the trial the killing was not denied, but
the defence of insanity was set up, and it
was put in proof that some other members
of the defendants family had been in the
asylum, with mental alterations The man
ner of the husband was shown to have indi-
Gated insanity Immediately previously to
the murder, and it would be strange if the
circumstances did not temporarily destroy
the balance of his mind.

POST FIG Els.

Through the exertions of Hon. William
Moore, post-office has been established at
Willow Grove, in this county. The place
has been isolated from the regular routes
of travel and for this reason we presume
there has not been an Office ut the place. 1t
isquite thriving little village, with store,
mill, church, school-house, &C., and is fairly
entitled to the accommodation. Mr.. Levi
Dore is appointed postmaster.
The name of the New Boston post Office
is changed to ''Cohansey." The Newark
Courier expresses its pleasure over the
change of name, and we join in the gratu-
lation of our confrere. The new name is
in accordance with our traditions, while the
old one smacks of flunkeyism. We do not
like nep anything, tackled on to a place.
Let it stand on its own proper name or 60
without one. The name of New York, as
the case now stands is simply ridiculous, for
York, in England, is most inconsidcrable
town compared with the city, and SO with
most of the places which have this tin
pail appendage fastened on.
West-Jersey pioneer., 1870-04-15
THE PUBLIC SHOOTS.

Day by day the contest over this ques.
tion becomes moro and more exciting.
Both the public mind and public men are
studying it with an intensity not equalled
by the feeling which prevailed at their in
auguration. More and more clearly the
people begin to see that the Roman Catho-
lies are determined in one form or other, to
put an end to the whole system, and com
pei the appropriation of money to schools
where their religion can be taught as an es-
sential element of public instruction. The
effort of that persuasion is not to put
an end to the raising of money for the sup
port of schools, for that would destroy the
sources from which the power comes to
provide education at all. The Roman
Catholic people pay. but a small proportion
of the money which is raised for this pur-
pose and, yet they have in proportion by far
the greatest numbers of children. The
plan is to raise the money by taxation,
when it comes chiefly from the pockets of
the Protestants, and then have it applied to
the Catholic education of their own chill
dren. For years past they have compelled
the Legislatures of New York and some
other States to grant them large subsidies,
and with each year the demands have been
larger as the Legislatures become more and
more obsequious The political principles
of the adherents of this church were worn
most loosely, obeying the dictation of their
1aa nd unfipfr I, told This
made their market value high priced one,
and political men have generally been ready
TO pay it in concessions like those to which
we have alluded. Million after million has
been granted to these people, while the
Protestants were compelled to first pay this
bill and then support the public system be-
Sides
The Romanists have also long insisted in
the exclusion of the Bible from the public
schools, and but recently there was every
appearance of success in the city of Cincin-
natti. This once accomplished and success
elsewhere would be easy. But here unex-
pectedly a new element came into play,
which destroyed all the calculations Of the
politicians. To the utter surprise of every
body the negro vote, enfranchised by the
fifteenth amendment, came out squarely on
the side of the Bible in the public schools,
and more than neutralized the votes on the
other side. If this vote may be taken as
an indication, and we see no reason to the
contrary then there will be more than
votes enough from the colored people to
overpower those of the Irish, and on the
question of public morals and education,
| the public will largely be the gamer So
| far the voting of the black people when
questions of morality have been concerned,
| has been given fairly upon that side, and if
it should continue thus the nation will have
added to itself an added moral force in the
voters of the colored race. If this shall
prove to be the case we have no hesitation
in saying that we prefer black mans bal
lot when cast on the side of order and mo-
rality, to white mans cast on the other
side, and welcome those votes as strong sup
ports to our system of public instruction in
our common schools. s

County Medical Society.

On Tuesday last, the Cumberland County
Medical Society held its regular annual meet.
ing at Davis Hotel, aud we noticed very
full attendance by those who are members
from the adjacent country, as we'll as those in
the city. The proceedings are characterized
with such cordial feeling Of sociablity as
well as an earnest desire to advance the best
interests OF the profession, that they are cher
ished and looked forward too as pleasant in
terludes, tending so much to relieve the con-
slant care and anxiety connected with the ar
duous duties of medical men. The discus
sions were, of course, varitied by the differ
ent cases of interest presented, and we're cal
culated to benefit those who listened as well
as those who participated. In the election of
officers for the ensuing year, DR.. George +.
Butcher was chosen President; DR.. B. Rush
Bateman, Vice-P President; DR.. William Elmer,
Secretary, and DR.. Joseph Sheppard, Treas
urer.
very complete and full report of all the
regular physicians who have ever practised in
Cumberland County, is in progress by COM
mittee appointed for that purpose, of which
DR.. r. NJ. Bateman is chairman. They have
already recorded biographies of a large num-
ber, and hope soon to have the whole ready
for publication-and will be gratifed to learn
from any Of our readers, any facts or even
scraps of knowledge relating to those who
have passed away from our midst.
The general health OF the County for the
past six months has been good, and no cpl
denies have been noted among our popula-
ton. The catarrhal affections incident to the
season have been of mild and manageable
type.
DR.. K. M. Bateman, J. II. Tomlinson, Stat
hens and Cattell were appointed delegates to
attend the meeting of the New Jersey State
Medical Society, at. Trenton, on the Oath of
May next, and Drs. Sheppard and B. Rush
Bateman, delegates to the American Medical
Association, which will meet in Washington,
on the first Tuesday of next month.
Besides the regular members OF the societys
we learn that there were visitors from the ad-
joining State of Pennsylvania, and from our
own State, who were gladly welcomed to the
session of the Society, and to the festive
board so amply and tastefully arranged by the
worthy host.

SENATOR REvELs.

This gentleman, the colored representa-
tive in the United States Senate, from
Mississippi, was announced to lecture
last evening in Horticultural Hall, Philadel-
phia, on the "Press." His friends had ap-
piled for the Academy of Music, but the
proprietors of that snobby institution re-
fused to allow it to be polluted by the pres
ence of man with black blood in his
veins. To US this is unmitigated nonsense.
A man, who despite his color is recognized
as a scholar and gentleman-who is the
official peer of tho proudest Senator Of any
State of the Union--who occupies a seat by
the side of the nation's most noble and
brilliant mems certainly competent to be
permitted to occupy the boards of an acad-
emy where play actors and actresses are
the aristocracy. Evidently Philadelphia
wants another Academy of Music, where
the proprietors are not ounces, and whore
the people can 60 to hear a lecture that
they may desire without being snubbed out
of it by an Academy of Music.

New FIRM.-NIr. David Sithens has as
sociated himself with Mr.. Charles H. Moore,
in the harness manufacturing business.
Mr.. Sithens, as our readers well know, is a
practical workman and thoroughly under
stands his business. For several years past
he has been keeping harness manufactory
in West Bridgeton, a few doors west of the
bridge. Mr.. Moore has been for some time
past engaged in the same occupation at the
old stand of Enoch Hanthorn. Having
united their forces they intend to carry on
the business with renewed energy and vigor.
