"Iet Us Have Peace. /"

The "let us have peace" saying of
Grant, which was used as y radical
motto, during the last presidential can.
vass, did not become n principle of the
party after the election. The radi.
calls are not been having peace in their
ranks since Grant was inaugurated.
He has been warring with the different
factions composing the radical house
hold every day of his administration,
and there is more fighting, in the par
ty now, than ever before, in spite of
"let US have peace"
Grant has been getting at outs with
all who have come in contact with
him, whether during the war, or since
he occupies the white house. He has
never proven himself to be Of the "let-
us.have>peaee" dispOsition-selfsh,
stubborn, surly, and petulent, there is
no peace in any circle in which he
moves. His real disposition is that OF
the bully. Every action of his life
shows it. He is disliked by all the
prominent military men of the coun-
try, and in the ranks of the radical
party there is not one whom We can
call statesman, but what has Il
dislike for Grant, for he has quarreled
with all the leaders of his party, and
would not "let them have peace" Ii
| is notorious fact, that none have been
able to get along with him, but such
as gave him fine residences, valuable
corner lots, and other presents.
Grant is at present having his fight
with Sumner and Schurz, both sena,
tors, and emong the most prominent
radical leaders Having failed to
bully states into his submis
sion, ut the recent elections in Missou
ri, New York, Georgia, and elsewhere
by sending federal bayonets to over
awe the people, he tries to bully the
statesmen of his party, in the senate
into support of corrupt jobs, set up tc
enrich himself and the corrupt crew
with whom he associates and holdes
counsel. Summers recent speech
showing up Grants San Domingo job
and Schurz' speech exposing his das
tardly attempt to control the Missouri
election, are nails in Grants coffin
driven by the ablest leaders of the
party. Sumner puts Grant into Q
bad light, as regards the San Dom.
lingo affair, aud shows that he Is dis.
honest, trickey, and untruthful-jusi
as the democrats always pictured him.
Schurz shows him up in about the
same cOlOrs. The fight is bitter one,
and radical blood has got to boil.

Our Railroad.

The railroad through Pennsyalley
is no longer a doubtful project-of this
we became fully convinced, last week,
at the meeting the board Of directors
in Philadelphia.
We can assure the people Of
our valley that the Penn'a r.. r. com
pany il in earnest in the matter, and
will do what it has all along promised.
The president is authorized, by reso-
luton Of the board, to have the road
located and advertize for the letting Of
of the tunnels and other heavy work,
in the mountains between Union and
Centre, and this, the president has
assured us, he would at once proceed
with, unless prevented by a too rigo-
rous winter. The location and
letting Of the work will extend so far
IS the right Of way has been secured.
The guarantee for the right Of way is
venting in Penn and Potter. The
road coming along Penns creek,
Haines twp, will have no right Of way
to guarantee. Gregg and Harris have
secured the right of way. Potter has
her right Of way nearly completed,
while Penn, VIC understand, il still
farther behind in this particular. The

LEGISLATIVE.

The state legislature meets 2nd,
Tuesday. The senate now being q
democratic body, there will be q
cleaning out of the Augean stables in
that branch. 1t is our opinion that
Senator Wallace viii be speaker Of
that body-he certainly will be should
he desire it, and we think democratic
sentiment points to him as the man
There is none more deserving the hon
or, and none more capable to ill the
speakers chair. Mr.. Wallace has
never been identified with any legis-
lative jobs or rings, and although he
is the oldest member of that body, his
record. from beginning to end, is spot
less. Mr.. Wallace was always held
in the highest esteem by his brother
senators Of the opposite party.
Since writing the above, we have
received intelligence Of the organiza-
ton of the senate. Mr.. Wallace was
elected speaker ON 1st ballot, and Col.
Jacob Ziegler chief clerk.
In the house Mr.. Webb, radical, Of
Bradford, was elected speaker, the
democrats voting for Mr. J. Ellis, Of
SchuyIkill.
Senator Connell introduced his bill
for a constitutional convention.

Death of Rev. Albert Barnes, ID. ID.

The telegraph has already announ-
ced the sudden demise of this eminent
divine. In Philadelphia, on Saturday
last, Mt the age Of seventy two. The
Age of that city says:
The deceased was born near the city
of Rome, Oneida county, New York,
on the lst OF December, 1898. lie
graduated at Hamilton College in 1920;
studied theology ut Princeton; was
ordained TO the work of the ministry,
and in 1926 was installed pastor Of the
First Presbyterian Church in Morres'
town, New Jersey. From this place
he was transferred, in 1880, 20 the
ministerial charge of the First Presby.
ttrian Church OF this city, commonly
known as the Washington Square
Church; but In 1867 he was compelled
to relinquish the active duties Of this
high office by permanent disorder OF
the eyes. He was widely known as an
eloquent and learned divine, and be-
came eminent as the author of notes,
critical, explanatory and practical on
all the new books OF the New Testa-
ment, and ON the Prophecies Of Isaiah
and Daniel, and on the Book Of job in
the Old. These works have been
generally adopted as text books in
Bible classes and Sunday schools.
More than four hundred thousand
copies of the "Notes on the New Tes>

the United States alone. aud they have
been translated into foreign languages.

Hard ON Congress.

The New York Tribune declares
"The Forty-frst Congress is not likely
to 20 down to history with cemnrn-
dable reputation for good morlls.
Two of its members have been exp,ll-
ed for selling cadetships, one resigned
to escape expulsion, three or four 9th
ers got off only by the hard swearing Of
the accompIices, one has convicted
himself of attempting to procure conl-
terfeit money to pass among the poor
negroes, one i charged with cheating
soldiers widows out Of their pensions,
and now the indictment of another for
bigamy is reported"
Had . democratic journal said
half as much Of this radical congress.
it would have been called a malicious
falsehood, but since it is the Tribune,
we guess our radical friends will take
it as truth, and as the confirming all
which that radical cabal has been ac-
cused Of BY the democratic party.
