The prompt conviction of de-
'auiiing city treasurer of PhIladel-
phia. on the indictment charging that
he unlawfully loaned the city's money.
ana took and converted to his own
use 100000 of the public funds,
shows that the reform movement is
not confined to any one locality, but
that the example of New York, in
scourging swindlers and corruption
lists from the places they have defled,
is influencing public opinion every
where throughout the country.
In one respect we may emulate the
action Ct our Philadelphia neighbors,
and that is in the promptitude and
vigor with which they prosecute de
taulters and thieves, and the short
work they make of the quibles and
technicalities interposed for the delay
of Justice.

Juice or vital principle of roots. This is not a
mere assertion, The EXTRACTS from which they
