Now AND THEy.-Nothing, perhaps, can
give clearer idea of the growth of this
country within the past century than the
immense increase Of pest routes and post
offices. One hundred years ago, there were
less than fifty postofices in what are now
the United States In I7-5, Benjamin
franklin, who had been Deputy Postmaster
General under the British Government. and
had been removed because of his rebel pro
cliyilies, was made Chief of the Postal De-
partment by Congress, and assigned salary
OF s 600 per anuum. His greatest achieve
ment prior to that period was an increased
mail service between New England and
Pennsylvania, whereby answers might be
obtained to letters between Philadelphia
and Boston in three weeks, which used to
require six weeks" The postal service OF
the country now embraces nine bureaus,
$4,000 mail routes, 1900 contractors, and
%, 200 psstmastsrs.

The subject of overtaxing the minds of
children in the public schools by too many
and difficult studies is still attracting very
considerable attention in several eastern
cities Those who had no knowledge or in
terest in the matter at first thought TO
laugh down the whole thing as though it
were, per Sc, ridiculous that children would
apply themselves to the labor of study so
diligently as to injure their health. But
the testimony of many eminent physicians
has been brought forward to show that this
is very often the most serious matter, de-
mandng the gravest consideration. The
superintendent of the Boston City Hospi-
tai for the Insane, DIR. Clement A Walker,
says Il cannot doubt that the modern sys
TEN of forcing the tender brain of youth
lays the foundation for the brain and ner-
vous disorders of after years-the cases OF
melancholia, paralysis, softening of the
brain, and kindred diseases, becoming SC

diseases seem to have assumed q nervou,

EFFECT OF THE Ku- KLUx BILL.-Infor-
nation from tie south Is to the effect that
since the passage Of the Ku klux bill by
Congress, or rather since il became apparent
that the bill would be passed, outrages are
less frequent. From the tone of the south
ern press it is evident that the leaders of
the Ku- Klux organization have come to the
conclusion that the Government is in earn
est in this matter, and that the President
intends to enforce the provisions of the new
law with all the power at his command. The
passage of the bill and the discussion which
preceded its passage have had good effect
in various ways. Ii compelled the Demo
Gratis in both Houses Of Congress to uu-
mask themselves upon the great Issues OF
the day, and placed them IN thair true at
titude before the country. 1t brought the
Republicans together, and proved the ne
cessity of more harmonious action. The
chances are that the mere existence OF the
law will be sufficient to restore order in the
south, and the general impression is that
there will be lfcs!e occasion for enforcing 1t.
Should the Ku Klux organization repeat
the outrages which occurred in several OF
the Southern States during the last six
months the President will not hesitate to
use the full power conferred upon him by
the new law to suppress them.

didates, the delegates will consider matters
relating to the organization of the party and
the advancement Of its principles The
Democracy are unfortunate in their selection
Of Harrisburg as the place for holding theii
convention. The loyal Pennsylvania in
his association of ideas is prone to revert to
convention Of the same party in the same
place some years ago, when the smoke of
battle had scarcely upliited from the heights
Of Gettysburg. and to the reasonable dec.
iarations of that same convention. The
principles of the party as stated then are
the principles of the party to day. The
same men will very largely compose the
convention of the 9th inst, and we sug-
gest that the same platform be adopted.

The Apportionment.

The apportionment bill passed by the
Legislature is coming in for a liberal share
of denunciation from the intensely partisan
press of both parties. 1t is true that the
Republicans of some counties have been
unjustly dealt with, and the Democrats OF
Others deprived of their proper representa-
ton, but these isolated and individual cases
are no argument against the bill in general,
or any reason for the Governor Withholding
his approval from it. On the whole, 1t
does equal and exact justice to both parties,
and, as such, we stand by our original dec
laration that it will be acceptable to the
State at large.
The only Objectionable feature is the inc
| quality of the rates of representation. This
is apparent at a glance at the districts. But
when we come to examine their majoritles,
We find that the inequality in one district Is
atoned for in another. The majorities in
the four Philadelphia districts are as fol-
lows:
FIRST. The First, Second, Third. Fourth,
Seventh, Eighth, and Twenty-sixth wards
one Senator Republican majority, l,l67.
Second The Ninth, Tenth, Thirteenth,
Fourteenth, Fifteenth, and Twenty ninth
wards; one Senator. Republican majority
4,l49.
Third The Fifth, Sixth, Eleventh,
Twelfth, Sixteenth, Seventeenth and Eigh-
teenth wards; one Senator Democratic
majority, 1,277.
Fourth The Nineteenth, Twentieth
Twenty first, Twenty second, Twenty third
Twenty fourth, Twenty fifth, Twentysev
enth, and Twenty eighth wards; one Sena
tor. Republican majority, 4,0l2.
Outside OF the city the majorities are a

The number of ex-rebels in Congress far
exceeds the number of 'carpet-bag repre-
sentatives OF the South" OF the twenty
two Southern Senators, only nine are of
Northern birth, and one of these is = Dem
ocrat. OF the the ffty-nine Southern Rep
resentatives, forty Zone are natives of that
section, and only nine Northerners; and of
this number Of Southern Representatives
twenty-eight are ex officials Of the Confcder-
acy. This statement etFectua!ly cxplodes
the cry of 'carpet-bagge"s, and shows
that the South has more natives in Congress
in proportion than many of the Western
States.

They will meet under better auspices than
ever before. Last year they increased their
vote twenty thousand and reduced the Dem
ocratic majority forty thousand, and this
without polling more than one half the col
ored vote. Since then several able Repeb-
lican journals have been established in the
State, and the kuklux outrages have dis
gusted thousands Of Democrats. They can
hardly hope for victory, but will nevertheless
make gallant and indomitable fight, which
will not be without good results. Kentucky
is not naturally Democratic, and was only
made so by the force OF circumstances.

Men and parties generally proclaim and
act out what they feel and seldom take part
against that with which they sympathze
1t is plain, therefore, why the Ku Klux ras-
Gals are never rebuked by Democratic lead
ers, and why they feel that they have their
moral support. There is not the shadow of
Doubt, that if the Democratic leaders only
lelt SO disposed, they could change the face
they never make the attempt, simply Be- Be-
cause they either approve of Ku KIuxism
or are afraid Of dividing the party-for the
hu- hiu1 are an important wing of the

united thc loyal masses to save the Govern

coming Presidential election for similar rca-
sons, which the Ka-K!ux Democracy so
vividIy illustrate. The blood of the mur-
dered citizens will not be split in vain.

SOUTHERN OUTRAGEs. The Cincinnati
Gazette says: We are told that the way tc
stop these outrages is toput the Democratic
party in power. The Democratic party was
IN power when the rebellion was organized.
Ii did not stop it, The Democratic party
was used for the purpose of organizing the
rebellion. If in power again it would be
used Tor the purpose of overthrowing the
constitutional amendments; of assuming
the Southern debt, or regulating the ma
tional debt. The Southern ex rebels do not
hesitate 10 declare this to be their purpose,
and the Northern Democrats do not dare tn
oppose this proposition.

DEMOCRATIC INCONSISTENCY The Dem

tcucy in advocating the repeal Of the income
tax while, at the same time, they call for
the taxation OF national bonds All the
exemption the bonds enjoy by law (says the
Chicago to$th is the provision that no
State or municipal corporation shall levy
taxes on them; but Congress itself leYics
an income tax Oh all incomes from bonds
exceeding $1,000 per aunum, and this very

shall be repealed They would tax the
bondhoder by repeating the only tax he
