Fraudulent Voting.

Legal proceedings have been COM
menccd against two individuals in In.
dustry township for voting on fraudulent
naturalization papers in that township,
on the 9Th October. On being closely
questioned, we unde,stand, they ad-
mitted that their naturalization papers
were made out in Philadelphia and
sent to them by mail. 1t is scarcely
necessary to state that these poor, igno-
rant creatures were handled by the
Hartranft politicians of that township,
and made to commit crime which will
probably land them in prison.

manure, consists of vegetable matter or carbon but
this is n OF indispensable to the plants, for they can get 1t
from the atmosphere, but the mineral matters are absO-
lut6ly in d ispensabie. Let US look Il little more narrow
iY at thi matter, and endeavour 10 understand it, as
being C ertainly second in Importance to no subject con-
nected with our agriculture for although many other
means e xist of furnishing to our soil the materials eS-
sentlal to tn e w~ell-belng OF our crops, yet they are all
more or less costly, whereas the manure procured from
our animals is not so, since we are 6oUnd TO maintain them
tdcarry ON the laborious 1Oork Of our estates; and l hope,
when the plough becomes mo -e universally used that
we shall even Increase their numbers, and on that we
may see how much it is our interest to improve their
condition | must again express a wish that the mat
ter were in ADLER hands, but as 1T is, we must do our
best, with the help ofour oft-quoted authorities and
first, hear Liebig =" In the solid and liquid excrements
of man, and ofanimas, we restore to our fields the
ashes Of the plants which serve to nOurlSh them. These
ashes consist of certain soluble salts, and insoluhle
earths which a fertile soil must yield, for they are indls-
p~ensable to the growth of cultivated plants.' Accord
ing to the above view, q knowledge OF the constituents
Of the ashes of food and fodder gives US an exact midi
cation of the ingredients ofsOll contained In the liquid
and solid excrements of men and animals. But L must
endeayour to let you understand the process ofreason-
ing by which this conclusion is drawn, independent OF
the bare matter of fact which is the result of analysis;
in other words, | must endeavour to explain the result,
upon the authority of Liebig, the whole of the subject
being too long for a literal quotation. An animal, we
KNOW, consumes daily a large amount OF food, yet does
1s, weight not increase materially. What becomes OF
this! 1t is d igested in the stomach of the animal, and
q portion Oft is converted into blood; and into that
channelis diverted. a large proportion fthe carbon OF
the food, s,e. the eompustible matter. The blood In It's

oxygen, exactly as in ordinary combuStlon, ana forming
carbonic acid, is discharged with the breath a proper
ton of hydrogen is discharged in the same ways In the
form of vapour. All this answers accurately to what
occurs when the materials of food are burned with fire.
r~Aoain the soluble mineral matters of the food, and
the nitrogen, pass off from the body with the urine,
whilst the insoIubIe find exit in tie solid excrements,
which also carry offthe carbon which Shad not been la
ken into the blood, Just as these materials would nave
been left after incarceration Of the article OF food, a GER
tain'proportion of the carbon being carried off in the
form Of SCOT and smoke. "Thus the urine OF the morse
contains carbonate of lime, carbonate of soda, hippu-
rate ofsoda, chloride of potassium urea water. Inc
dung contains phosphate of lime, carbonate OF lime,
phosphate Of magnesia, silica. These9 analyses show,
as nearly as can be expected, that alrgthe constituents
ofthe ashes of the food are again obtained, without all

ggdHIS Society, which confines its bust
az ness exclusively to assuring the lives
of persons resident in the West Indies,
presents advantages such as no other AS
surance Company, Iab0uring in the sam
field, can offer. Its scale Of Premiums,
although considerably lower than that of
any other Company, has nevertheless been
found quite adequate to provide for the
risk Of life in the West Indies, aud sufi-
cient to create large SURPRISES, out Of
which Reverslonary Bonuses, averaging
q 6 per cent per annum upon the amount
assured have been distributed among the
Members Of the Society.
It's career, during a period of 80 years
has clearly demonstrated the fact that the
lives of persons residing in this part Of the
world, are, when carefully selected, almost
as valuable as those inhabiting Europe,
and that they do not demand such exces
sive Premiums as are charged by every
other Company.
The following abridged Table shows the
Premiums required to assure 500, for the
whole term, upon a single life =
, 1872-11-23

Assurers wishing to discontinue the pay
ment of their Premiums, may either dis
pcse Of their Policies to the Society upon
equitable terms, or obtain a free Policy
for a reduced amount.
Loans are granted to Members on the
Security Of their Policies.
All claims occurring by death are
promptly net within 3 months after salts
factory proof of such death has been re-
ceived by the Society.
Strict investigations into the position of
the Society are made quinquennially, and
the surplus then existing is allotted to the
Members, after a sufficient sum has been
est aside for the purposes Of the Reserve
Fund. The next investigation and D wi
sion of Profits, will take place at the 31st
December, 1876.
The Society has Agencies in nearly 81

their arrest and indictment is in

better. When the publication of
such doctrines as they are identi-
fed with calls down immediate
and indignant censure, and is

tain some hope that the tone of
morals is improving in the great

The Death Rate and Nation.
al Disturbances.

Great wars or other national
convulsions are followed by an
increase in the rate Of sudden,
violent and unnatural deaths. Oil
yer Wendell Holmes, soon after
the outbreak of our own civil
war, predicted that deaths from
heart-disease would for many
years exceed their old proportion
in the total mortality and the
result has verified his prophecy,
which, indeed, was on a familiar
medical experience. We incline to
think that careful statistics would
show alike increase in deaths from
violence and seIf-destruction. The
fact is we'll attested, so far as con-
Germs suicides, which in France,
during the past year, have caused
a death record unprecedented aud
prodigious. A calculation made
for Paris alone shows the almost
incredible result of AIT suicides
since 1871. A detailed classifca-
ton asrcibes the largest number,
1877, as might be expected, to
arrangement of the brain. Next
come $50 suicides from physical
suferings"-the strongest tempta-
ton, one would think, to defy the
''canon against self-slaughter,"
but one more prevalent in France
than in our own land, we Judge.

Better Late than Never.

Affected with sudden spasm
Of virtue, the authorities of New
York have caused the arrest and
indictment Of the Woodruff and
Claflin women, for publishing OBJ
scene books. We do not forget
the proverb that it is never too
late to mend, but We must also
bear in mind the fact that these
same women have been publish
ing an obscene paper for two OK
three years. If they have now
exceeded the licence which char
acterized the infamous sheet styl-
ed WoodhuU and C2afin's Weesly,
they must have struck cut an en-
tirely new path ia the field Of OBJ
sene literature. In the publication
referred to they have openly and
in the most pointed and deliberate
manner espoused the doctrines Of
free love, otherwise known as
promiscous prostitution. 1t is q
matter Of rejoicing that the tardy
law has at last been aroused to a
sense of the rights ofpublic decen-
cy, and it is to be hoped that the
prosecution of these abominable
ere atures will be pressed. The
impunity with which they have
pursued their shameless course in
the past, and the absence of all
formal protest against the dissi-
miration by them Of the most
outrageously lewd and filthy doc
trines, have tended to fix stigma
upon the community that regard
ed such proceedings with indiffer-
ence. Inasmuch as they have
from the first manifested an ig-
norance or a defiance Of the bounds
that seperate freedom Of speech
from RIGHTEOUSNESS, there has nev-
er been any reason for holding
them guiltless. Their unrestrain-
ed insoIence has had the effect of
encouraging the foolish and the
vicious in the propagation and the
cultivation of the most debasing
and demoralizing ideas, and they
have acted as q focus for all the
scum of nastiness that rises to the
top of such discussions as they
have engaged in. 1t is not sign
of advancing civilization when
such notorious characters as these
are able to appeal to public opinion
for the support of fragrant immor-
ality, nor can we admit that the
