The Judiciary Committee of the House
OF Representatives at Harrisburg made
report last week against the adoption of
The report OF the Commissioners appoint
ed to revise the civil code Of the State.
This result was anticipated, The law
providing for the appointment Of the Com
missioneIs, three in number, was passed
at the session of 1867, and required them
to perform their work within two years,
although no sane man believed for one
moment that they woulI do so. 1t was
a set mp affair from the beginning to fastcn
upon the treasury, like so many leeches,
three radical lawyers, one of them Nc
Weigh a son-in-law of Simon Cameron
and another Hall a brother-iu>law of
Francis Jordan, Geary's Secretary Of the
Commonwealth, and anxious to be his
successor. These men were known to be
incompetent for proper and intelligent
discharge Of the responsible duties assigned
to them when they were appointed, but
they were radicals Of the first water, close
ly connected by marriage with two of the
leaders of that party, and that of itself
covered a multitude Of sins. This busi>
ness has cost the taxpayers OF the State
not less than .ffty thousand dollars, and
now their report is kicked out of the Leg
islature as a crude, unlearned, unsatisiac
tory, Dangling performance, and unfit tc
be adopted. Each membe: of this in
competcn. board has of course feaihcrcd
his own nest to the tune of several thou
sand dollars, and the people have paid
pretty dearly for their whistle. 1t is one
of the most shameless frauds from It's in
ception to its disgraceful termination that
was ever perpetrated on the treasury
This and its kindred job, the Bates his

treasury the enormous sum of Mt leGst

THE latest and most barefaced radical
scheme for plundering the national treas,
ury developed itself in Congress last week.
It's paternity is due to regular carpet
bagger from Mississippi, and as a project
for diverting the government from its le-
gitimate purposes, is well worthy of the
source whence it proceeds. What capa-
cious minds these low and dishonest ad-
venturers have for all manner of legisla-
tive swindling and corruption The
following despatch to the n. Y. World
will give our readers a pretty fair insight
into the purposes as well as enormity of
this gigantic job:
The radical projects to plumber tho Treas
ury are increasing daily in number Tho

AN IMPORTANT RUMoR There is an inn
portant rumor af1Dat. founded upon a spe-
cial despatch from Halifax, n. S. to the Bos-
ton -4dUertiser. based upon good authority
that treaty exists and has been signed by
the British and Canadian Governments for
the separation of this Dominion from the
British Empire The terms were agreed to
when the act of confederation was passed by
the Imperial Parliament, but the treaty was
not to take effect for some years, unless the
British Government saw the necessity for
action sooner. Ever since the treaty the
British troops have been gradually withdrawo
from Canada until there is scarcely soldier
left in the Dominion outside of Halifax
There is no doubt that should the differences
between Great Britain and the United States
become serious the British Government will
at once publish the treaty and proclaim the
independence of Canada, and by that means
be relieved of the necessity of defending these
colonies against the United States should
war enSue.

The Schools OCMedIcIue.

There can be no good arise out of the
quarrels about the comparative value of the
different schools Of medicine, eclectic, allo-
pathie, homeopathic or what not.
The school that cures, and the doctor that
cures, has the cream out Of the most of them
1t is in this way that DOCTOR KEYsER with
his LUNG CURE has succeeded i'll overthrow
ing most consumptive diseases. The dismal
prospective which once haunted tbs poor
consumptivs is now disPelled forever. as
many in our midst can bear witness When
taken early, DIR. KEYsER's LUNG CURE
alone will eradicate the disease from the con-
stitution, aud lull the threatening cough
which attends it into a calm, which is a sure
presage that the lungs are healing, and the
membranes of the bronchie are returning
to health and duty-eveu in old aud stub
born cases Of consumption, DR.. KEYsER's
Lung CURE and treatment have absorbed
the tuberculous matter and swept it from
the system. The study Of its properties and
its mode Of action raises it far above the
reach of aly imputation of empiricism. The
DoCToR, besides being skiliful and thorough
apcthecary. is likewise a conscientious ply
sician, who has acquired by over twenty five
years of study, not only bis diplomas and
degrees, but has hopored and protected them

SOME member of the lower branch of
the Legislature, wiser and more patriotic
than his colleagues, has introduced q bill
into that body approprialing from the
State treasury tho sum of ten thousand
dollars towards the completion of tho
Washington monument. Ii there is anv
ona object not Immediately connected with
the material interests of the State, to the
inrtherance of which the people would
sanction reasonable appropriation of
the public funds, 1t is the one contem-
plated in the bill referred to. 1t is burn
ing shame and reproach to tho whole
country that the work of erecting a great
and imposing monument to him who was
"iirst IN war, first in peace and first in
the hearts of his coun;rymcn," has not
yet been prosecuted to final and success
ful termination. The monument which,
when completed, will be the grandest
structure of its kind the world ever saw.
presents the same appearance to-day that
1t did seventeen years ago, when the work
upon 1t was interrupted by the advent of
the bigoted Know-Nothing party into the
common councils of the city of Washing
ton. 1t presents an unsightly aspect, and
one which is a sad commentary on the
liberality and patriotism of the American
people. A great many plans from time
TO time have been suggested by which ii
was thought that money enough could be
raised with which TO resume the work |
upon it and push i; 10 a speedy concIu-
sion, but they have all ended in disastrous
failure. 1t has long been plain to US that,
If ever the monument is to be finished, it
will only be done through the action of
the different State Legislatures, and hence
we regard this movement in our own AS
sembly AS beginning in the right direc-
tion. Surely there still exists in this
country a feeling of love and veneration
strong enough for the virtues and fame of
Washington, not to suffer this proposed
monument on the bank of his own loved
Potomac, and in The city which bears his
own immortal name, to remain in its pres
cnt dilapidated and unfinished condition.
If the bill passes, as we trust it will, it
will furnish an example for the other
States to initiate. That they will do so
cannot be doubted, and then we may in
dulge the hope that ths work will be re-
sumed and the monument completed ac~
cording to the original design of its pros
jectors.

Missouri and Connecticut.

When we published in cur last weeks
issue the resolutions adopted by the Mis-
souri, Convention of liberal republicans
who are opposed to Grants reelection,
ue expressed our conviction that no dem>
ocrat could reasonably dissent from the
views and policy They announced. Since
this Missouri revolt against Grant and Lis
administration, the democracy of Connec-
ticut have held their annual State Com
vention to nominate a candidate for Gov
ernor and other State officers, and in their
platform they have incorporated not only
the substance, but, in the many instances,
the identical language Of the Missouri
resolutions. This shows that, in regard
to national affairs, the same doctrines that
are recognized by the anti Graat republic
cans of Missouri, and elsewhere in the
west, are received with willing and CONS
plete acceptation by the democrats OF Con-
neclicut The democratic party Of that
State has always been distinguished for
its strict devotion 10 party faith. Indeed
it has sometimes been regarded as too
ultra in the expression of its opinions, and
no one can the refore charge it with
base and coWardly surrender of its princi>
pies, merely because 1t endorses and rati-
ties the sentiments enunciated by the Mis-
souri, convention. For all practical pur-
poses the platform of the Missouri liberals
is simply The recognition of that policy in
administering the affairs of the general
government which the conservative ele>
ment Of the whole country is so anxious
to see adopted. The very essence of the
Missouri platform is what every democrat
in the land is laboring to accomplish. 1t
means opposition to Grantism-the over
throw of weak and incompetent Execu-
| tive and the expulsion from power of an
administration which is lawless and usurp-
| ing in all its tendencies and essentially
corrupt in all its departments-it means
| honesty and reform in the public service
and peace and good government in the
South, where moro official rapacity and
villainy have cursed and impoverished the
! people than were ever inflicted on any
other country on the face of the earth. 1t
! is hopeful sign when the anti Grant re-
! publicans of Missouri and the democrats
! of CONNECTICUT thus strike hands together
in battling fer common purpose, and it
shows that with a unien of these two ele-
ments of opposition to Grant over the
whole country, his defeat is a foregone
conclusion. We will not permit ourselves
to doubt that such a union can be eff
/ fected. 1t cannot be that a majority of
/ the voters of the United States who are
! opposed to Grant and all his works, will
SO divide and filter away their strength
as TO let the prize escape from their grasp,
and thus render his re election and all tho
evil consequences resulting from it, not
only possible, but absolutely certain. I'M
less party leaders are stricken with judi
cial blindness, we look for wiser and more
prudent couTsels to prevail, and that there
by the threatened calamity of another four
years term Of the present party in power
may certainly be averted.

which is construed as portending trouble
1t says:
Senator Wilson has gone back to WASH

of mind as to Gen. Grants prospects of re-
election. They tell US from Washing gton that
he says he cannot take the stump in the New

"cleans out" the New York Custom House.

The general amnesty bill which has

defeated in the Senate on Friday of last
week, because of Summers civil rights
bill having been attached to it. This civil
rights bill is to compel the Legislatures of
