p~ The New York Tribune thinks that
the Presdentshould have appointed aSouthern
man to one of the existing vacancies in the
Supreme Court. The Court, if the present
nominees should be confirmed, will be COM
posed entirely of Northern men, referring to
which the Tribune says
We still regret that the President has
not seen fit to select one of the candidates from
the Southern Circuit, and believe that he
must yet see that this would haze been
wiser course"

THE ScHoRPPE CASE Harrisburg. Feb
ruary 1O-n isreported that Governor Geary
has refused to approve the bill passed last
week directing the Supreme Court to review
the evidence and decide capital cases on their
merits twas passed to cover the cAse of Dr.
Schoeppe, now under sentence of death in
Carlisle The Chief Justice had heard the
case and denied tie writ of error, but it was
subsequently, allowed by the Attorney Gem
eral, and the case was argued before the SUI
preme Court yesterday.
The bill is a general one. and provides in
first, the section that writ of errors IN capital
cases shall be allowed as matter OF right
The second section requires the Supreme
Court to review all such cases on their merits.
While favorable to the first section, the Gov
ernor will veto the bill because of his objee-
lions to the second section Much evidence
has been presented to the Governor in the
case of DR.. SchOeppe, and it is generally
conceded that if the Supreme Court shall de-
eide that there is no error in the record he
will not be inclined to extend clemency to the
prisoner. The record as it stands with the
Executive in most damaging to DIR. SehoePpe

- Before the war there was very little Of
official corruption in the Southern States, and
such transactions as have disgraced the Leg
isIature Of Pennsylvania were unknown but
since the Inauguration of Radical rule under
the auspices of reconstruction, all the vices
which are common in the governments Of
Northern States, have become familiar in
Dixie Land. The Governor of Florida has
been impeachcd for stealing, and corruption
and rascality stalk broad wherever Yankee
Carpet>baggers and negroes rule. Such is the
legitimate fruit of a bastard system Of recon-
struction.
- Nepotism has reached its climax in the
appointment of Master Dent Sharpe as cadet
to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. This
youngster is the only appontec at large to the
Naval Academy who is not the son of an army
or naval officer but he is the son of DR..
Sharpe, Marshal Of the District of Columbia
and nephew of President Grant It is doubt
full, whether there is a relative on either side
Of the American family royal, down to tho last
degree of cousinhood left unprovided for now
- Mr. Dawes states that there are FIVE hun
dred unnecessary officers in tho army, whose
annual pay is s125O,0OO This is one of
the facts which Butler justly said tended to
impare the confdenc of the ADMINISTRATION
Why are such abuses allowed to continue.

thatt road which is to form one of the great
trunk lines between the Eastern Coast and the

the Baltimore and Ohio is to Maryland, the

trars on the fourth Thursday in May. He
