AT the election held in New Hampshire

AT the election held in New Hampshire
on last Tuesday, the radical candidate for
Governor was elected by majority of
about fifteen hundred. When Grant ran
for President he had majority in the
same State Of seven thousand. In the face
of these figures the result is anything but
a radical victory. We think it is we'll
that radicalism has succeeded by meagrs
majority, for the reason that if the radical
party had been defeated in that State.
Grant would not have been renominated.
Nolg be will be, and that is just what a
majority Of million of the voters of the
country wish, in order that they may re-
cord their solemn verdict against him.

TnE bill which passed the House pro-
hibiting the sale of spirituous liquors, wine
or cider by hotel keepers on the day of an
election, and also prohibiting the giving of
the same on said day by any person what
ever, has passed the Senate with an
amendment, striking out the giUing a,ooy
clause and confning the prohibition to
persons keeping public houses or drinking
saloons. In this shape the bill goes back
to the House for concurrence, which will
doubtless be done, thus leaving any .f1ee>
man who may be so inclined the privilege
Of getting as drank as Bscchus or elec,
tion day, provided he has friend or
neighbor who will afford him the necessa-
ry facilities to bring about that result.
This action on the part of the Senate was
very kind ard considerable.

Tina GRAvEsT Issue OF THE TINES
The great question of the day ia that of
official corruption. This moral pestilence
stalks abroad unabashed throughout the
land, and whether it appears in the Ex>
ecutive Department or the other high de-
partments of the Government. or in rings
in legislative halls, or in the municipal
councils of cities, they must be crushed,
or true Republicauism will perish. Great
culprits mnst be brought to the bar of jus
tice and punished as fslons. High posi-
tions and great wealth must not shield the
men who have amassed fortunes By steal
ing from the people. The power is with
the people to correct this great and glar-
ing evil of the time, and they must handle
without gloves the miscreants, whether
high or low, who use their official posi-
tions in order to rob the public Erie
Observer.

GOVERNOR GEARY threw large bomb
shell into the radical camp on last Tu.s>
day, when he sent a message to the Sem
ate informing that body that he had aP-
pointed G. D. Brigham, editor of the
Pittsburgh Commercial, Auditor General
the appointment to take effect on the
first Monday of next May, when the term
Of the present officer will expire. This
action of the Governor is not easily un-
derstood in view of the fact that last week
a bill passed the House authorizing Gen.
Hartranft, the present Auditor General,
to continue in office until his successor,
to be elected under the provisions of the
bill next October, shall have been quail
fed. Our own opinion is, that Geary
has no power to make the appointment,
but that it is purely a question to be dis
posed of by the Legislature. AS one
branch of that body had already disposed
of the matter, this unexpected movement
by Geary brings him in direct conflict witt
the law making power, unless the Legis
lat rs yields and slows Geary's will tC
prevail. The nomination was referred tC
the Judiciary Committee, and when i
makes report the question of conflicting
power must be definitely settled.

The HOUSE COMMITTEE (of which Mr..
Hewitt of Blair county is chairman) ap>
pointed to apportion the State into Com
g essional dis r. c's, reported bill last week
for that purpose. In this instance the
radical mountain, after having been in
labor for two months, instead of bringing
forth ridiculous mouse, has produced
very long-tailed rat. In this bill the
counties of Huntingdon, Blair, Cambria
and Somerset compose district. 1t is
very evident, from glance at the bill,
that Hewitt blocked out his own district
first, as a sine qua non, and having ar
ranged it to his own entire satisfaction,
proceeded to form the remaining districts
as best he could, without any regard to
political justice and with a supreme con-
tempt for all the principles of honesty and
fair dealing on. which every apportion-
ment bill ought to be based. We can
only account for this unblushing gerry
mander en- the ground that its author is
anxious to be sent to Congress- species
of political mono mania which is said to
prevail to an alarming extent among the
radical members of the present able and
intellectual House of Representatives We
do not propose TO discuss this bill in detail
and to point out its numerous abomina-
tions, as that would require too much time
and space. One instance of its gross and
manifest injustice will indicate the char
acter of the entire bill. 1t divides Phila-

AFTER Grant assumed the duties Of the
Presidency, it was very common for his
most enthusiastic admirers to refer to hin
as the "Second Washington" Even
now after his total unfitness for the high
Office be holds has been fully dsmonstra-
ted, some of his thick and thin supporters
occasionally repeat this libel upon the IL
lustrous Virginian who was ''first in war,
first in peace and first in the hearts of his
countrymen." Instead of resembling the
diguifed, anstsre and high minded Wash
ington, Grant IS only fit to be compared
in the intensity Of his avarice to another
and very different character in history,
the Duke # Marlborough. Horace Greely,
who understands the moral beauty and
greatness Of Washington's character, and
who also knows good deal about Grant,
published an editorial in the Tribune on
the 22nd of February on tho character OF
Washington, from which we take the fol-
lowing extract. Its significance is very
apparent and indicates the writer's mean
ing SO clearly that he who runs may read:
1--WE suggest that nerer before could the
character of this man. SO long foremost OF

ENGLAND has for a long time been
deeply interested in the progress of a suit
for the recovery of the T'ichborne estate,
instituted by an individual claiming to be
Sir Roger Tichborne, who it is claimed by
the defendants died many years ago. The
case came to sudden and unexpected end
on Wednesday of last week. Upon the
opening of the court, the counsel for the
claimant announced that their client had
decided, in view of the action of the jury
on Monday in saying that they had heard
sufficient: evidence whereon to base their
verdict, to withdraw his cause from before
the court After this announcement had
been made the counsel for the defense
asked the lord chief justice to issue his
warrant for the arrest of the claimant on
the charge of perjury, and to fix his bail
at S250,000. This request was granted,
bench warrant issued for his arrest, and
he was taken to Newgate prison. Deci-
dedly rough time Sir Roger Tichborne
will have before he comes into his own.

REMARKABLE SCENE.-A Whole COHQre-
gallon Tukimg the Total Abstinence Pledge
week Sunday evening a most remarkable
seems was witnessed in the old church of
St. Johu's iCAtholic) parish. Patterson, New
Jersey. Iue Rsv. VIM. McNulty, pastor. at
all the morning masses had read Bishop
Bayley's L:nteu pastoral. aud feelingly
dwelt upon tho passage wherein the Bishop
declares that 1.-THE spectacle of shsng man
behind the bar, dealing out crime. misery
and death, instead of earning an honest
living in some manly way, was the most
pitiabls sight imaginable" He announced
that the old church in which they had wor~
SHIPPED for years would be opened that even
ing for the purpose of administering the
total abstinence pledge to all who might
wish to commence Lent in this praise worthy
manner, and that he had invited the Prssi~
dent of the Catholic State Temperance
Union to deliver an address. and would him
self address to them some exhortations on the
subjsct. About two thousand persons were
packed in the old church at seven O'Clock.
Tbs altar was hidden away behind draper
les and banners, a platform being erected
in front. Pews and aisles on the floor and
galleries were crowded.
The pastor delivered an impressive adj
dress which was listened to with breathless
attention, and introduced Mr.. J. w. O'Brien
of the State Union, who spnke for an hour
Father McNuIty then called upsn his pso-
pie to join the army of tsetotalsrs. andstold
those so disposed to stand up. In an in
sta.t fully one thousand people were on
their feet. They repeated the pledge aloud,
and received the priests benediction. The
! presidents of St. Patrick's St. Jossph's. St.

rick's societies were on the platform. The
