pendent ticket for Sheriff and got one
vote: Is he the same man that about

Justice Sweet to keep the peace? Is
he the same man who about six

No well regulated newspaper makes
or permits to be made through its col
umns wanton personal attacks upon
private citizens. But when any citi-
zen disarms himself of the privacy
which would otherwise he his shield
and openly, through papers which
habitually prostitute themselves to
such uses, attacks the public and pri-
waite character Of other men, then the
public has right to inquire who aud
what such belligerent "cusses" may
be. Therefore we publish the above
interrogatories, hoping some compe.
tent person may do the subject justice
a. we confess we cannot-both for the
want Of inclination and ability
We did wonder, however, why Mr..
r., when his stock argument of Its y

less to him in little street corner de-
bate by the alternative to take it back
or get his mouth slapped-we Won
dered, we say. why he rushed into

ingiy more naturAD plan Of going
home aud thrashing his wife for re-
venge. The above questions probably
explain-such thrashing was not as
cheap as II used to be.

error and repenting oil its wrongs,

on him. ''The people" Of whom the

had been more than $21, 900 for each
Of the years 1875; in 1869 it had
been ga, 1852; in 1870 it was re-

January LIST, 1870, the county fund
was cverdrawn 1857, and the whole
county Indebtedness at that time was
about 100000. Since then this in
debtedness has been paid, the Poor
Farm has been bought and improved
at cost Of about $1,000, and on
the LIST Of June, 1873, there was in
the Treasury a surplus of 42l, 1854.
In 1872 the county tax, which had
been four mills, was reduced to three.

This wool is of course purchased In

they eau afford to pay all that can be
paid by the shipper plus his margin
for profit. Again they can sell their
manufactured articles cheaper than
the same quality from tho East by the
cost Of freight from there, at least
thus making the benefits Of home

of wool (who are also the consumers
Of the goods) at both ends Of the pro.

Lawrence, VINO gave Oh Auesudy
evening . lecture aud concert in the
Court House, entertained his audience
better aud more nationally than many
pretentious "artists" or lecturers are
able to do. His bills, only distributed
the same day rs the performance,
stated that he was a blind man and
although they also expressly stated
that he was not on that account ask.
Ing any aims, this. together with the
efforts Of the COrnet Band on the
balcony, filled the room quite full at
an early hour.
After an instrumental opening piece,
Mr.. st. Lawrence told the audience
that he would next deliver . short
lecture upon "How the Blind See. =
His remarks consisted ofa plain and
very interesting abatement Of the
methods used by the blind in acquir-
ing knowledge, or mental sight, under
the deprivation Of the physical win
dows through which the mind looks
out. He then passed to the openings
that exist for the blind person, after
obtaining such education as our ex-
cellent public Institutions bestow, to
make Ills own way ia the world. He
gave the approxim ste number o. blind
In the country, al showed that OF
that number maay thousand who
have good trades well learned find it
impossible to obtain any work because
they have no capital to start shops of
their own, and can not work where the
methods, machinery aud tools are not
especially adapted to their use. Such
persons become respondent, and are
glad to shuttle off the mortal coil ~
soon as possible, supported by some
public or private charity, the enforced
acceptance of which continually gals
their sensitive minds. To remedy
this. Pennsylvania only recently
builded State workshop, or manu-
factory. at which all competent blind
persons can find employment adapted
to their ability aud receive reguia
wages therefor. The original cost Of
the institution was 1900; its profile
last year were $50, 900. beside making
hundreds happy in industrious self
support who would otherwise have
been in unhappy dependence. A like
institution, the speaker urged with
apparent good reason, upon every
State and particularly upon lows.
which already educates her blind we'll
ut the ViHton School, and should also
give them after employment where
they could not only support them
selves but assist in the maintenance
OF the educational institution which
had prepared them to earn something.
Mr.. st. l.. then proceeded to play
and sing number Of songs of varied
sentimental and pathetic
all well received and applauded. A
collection was taken up, instead Of
asking admission ut the door. which
we hope netted Handsomely.
