1t would be difficult to fnd language In
which to make a suitable expression Of the
obligation just now placed upon the whole
country by hepoliticians of Massachusetts,
For many years this good old common
wealth has sent her men and her women,
aud especially her ideas, broadcast over the
land, and thereby has oxerted, as some
have thought, an undue influence in con-
trolling the affairs Of the nation; but just
now all this is buried out Of sight by the
wonderful dust she has kicked up respect
ing her govornorship-and which is by no
means confined to her own borders In fact,
We think the liveliost hand is being taken
outside the State And it comes 10 very
opportunely, to save US from worse polit.
! ical drouth than that which has threatened
us so disastrousy in the natural world.
Hence the obligation.
As is natural, under the circumstances,
every newspaper in the country wants to
have its say in the matter; and, what il
quite significant, nearly all the Republican
papers agrco 10 the opinion, aud give it
fearless expression that if Gen. Batter
succeeds in bullying the Old Bay State
into submission to his demands, and he is
made her next Governor, she forfcits what
ever claims she may have had to political
purity aud moral prominence in the Union
Of States. This may be regarded as the
deliberate aud wcll.sottlod judgment OF the
Republican party throughout the country.
To be sure, there are many who admired
Buffers Characteristic dash, and cut.aud.
thrust tactics, in dealing with the rebels
and some are doubtless possessed Of an in.
defined curiosity to witness the general
shaking.up which would follow his cleva.
ton to the gubernatorial chair Of this
stad old Commonwealth, And many radi.
cal temperance men, wearied out with the
ineihcieucy Of political parties, and theii
chosen executives, 10 dealingwiih the liquor
question, want to try the experiment oil
Buffers tactics in that direction. But w
think the qualities which shono in Gen
Butler while governing rcbellious New Or

But there is one party, with its journals
which seems specially DESTROYS that Gen

THR New YoRK STATE PARK.--A commission
headed by the Hon. Hontio Seymour, has been
investigating the proprlely OF making a grind
State park of the Adirondack forest in New
York, as stated yesterday, and has made Iavora-
BILE report. The great consideration that seems
TO influence the commission IL the preservation of
forests, IN the light Of utility and absolute
sity, as some time ago urged In general article
on the subject In the Sun says:
"The commissioners have carefully examined
the timbercd regions which lie In the extreme
northern part of the State and comprise an aerea
OF nearly two million acres, and they come to the
conclusion that these forests should be carefully
reserved and protected for two purposes First,
because they form natural equalizer for the rain
fall and, second, because they will be needed as
timber preserve, 1t Is conceded that forests are
not 50 much stOrehouses Of water supplies as
important elements in the distribution Of mois-
ture, clouds and rains. Thelrnbsenee makes long
drouths and violent rain storms alternate where,
under other conditions, we might expect natural
showers aud sunshine. II 10 also proposed to
have some of the more aged trees cut, from time
TO time, under an intelligent Official direction"

PalnTuI Accident form a Finger Ring.


The Pottsville Journal says On Thursday
evening Of last week an accident, singular In
character and distressing In its results, hap.
pened to an interesting little girl Of twelve
years Of age, Katie, daughter Of Mr.. William
Rowland, residing in East Norwegi0 street.
She with seme companions, were in Mr. Lucas
garden swinging. She was engaged In push
Ing the swing having her hands on the back
Of the seat, when heavy. plain gold ring
which was on the third finger Of her left hand
caught in a nail. The momentum Of the
swing pulled the ring forward, stripping not
only tie flesh clean TO the bone from between
the kAuckle and the second joint to the end Of
the Anger, but also tearing Of the bone at the
third joint. The injury presented most shock
ing appearance, and was really of the most
painful character, but the little girl bore 1t with
fortltude most extraordinary, and walked
home, distance of several squares, holding
her mutilated hand under her apron.
DR.. HalberStadt was sent for, and upon ex-
amining the injury deemed It necessary to
amputate the finger between the knuckle and
the second joint. lie performed the operation,
and although she passed a somewhat restless
night, when we saw her the next day she was
bright and cheerful, with thu prospect Of q
rapid recovery, which we trust will be the
| case.
