And Still They Come.

1t really seems as If the people
of this country are determined upon
the humiliation OF frauds which
have been practiced upon their
rights with the sublimest impunity
by those whom they have selected
to guard their liberties and their
interests. The criminal presidents
of the President in his lucrative bu-
siness of gift-taking has been
fruitful of all sorts of devices on the
part of those who dance attcndanc o
upon his whins for tho purpose of
securing gain or political glory
The exposure of Congressman and
the Vice President in their nefari-
Gus connection with the Mobilier
swindle, has taken like wild fire,
and is now taking sort of epidem-
ical course which comprehends all
kinds of corruption in f,Hblic ses.
wants. State governments and mu-
nicipal corporations as well as tho
general government are eagerly en-
gagged in nosing out the wrongs
and injuries they have respectively
sustained at the hands of their Off
GERS. Kansas has unearthed the
last case, which savors moro of fic-
ton than of reality, from the fact
that the exposure shows crime in
such glaring light that reason can
scarcely credit it's existence. The
great gun of the West, the most
potent Pomeroy, of Kansas, the
man who has dealt as largely in
criminal stocks as any ono on the
continent is tho last victim to the
irresistible attack of the people
upon the ranks of their officers.
This hoary headed saint, who has
bought more guilty deeds of his

"investigation" has yet turned up,
has at last been caught by justice

honors furnished by contract with
felons chains and his aspirations
satiated by prison labors! lie was

A hanging garden Of sponge is one OF
the latest novelties in gardening. Take q
white sponge Of large size, and SOW 1t full
of rice, oats or wheat. Then place 1t for
a week or ten days In shallow dish, and
as the sponge will absorb the moisture, the
seeds will begin to sprout before many
days. When this has fairly taken place
tho sponge may be suspended by means OF
cords from q hook in the top of the win.

thus become like mass Of green, and may

Coming Events Cast their Shadows
BEFORE"

The kilograms from New Orleans
yesterday, announced that the gov
crnments of Louisiana would hold
joint meeting to-day for the
purpose of having better under
standing" We cannot say that we
approve of a democratic Legislature
thus compromising itself by recog-
nizing the existence Of any power
within the borders of it's State with
which it should treat in the execu-
ton of laws essential to the welfare
and prosperity of tho people it rep
resents. 1t looks like virtue going
out of its we'll beaten and defined
course to hold high converse with
vice. 1t certainly is giving re-
cognition to usurpation which will
. cover it's retreat gracefully, and OBJ
scure the glaring shame which
should encircle every recollection
of the free-bootcrs and of their do
ings. But the con accession has been
made, and the only thing now left
for the democrats to do, is to deport
themselves like victors at the meet
ing to-day. They should let their
demand be for complete surrender,
and etthe Pinchbackers understand
from the beginning that the people
of Louisiana have rights which
their representatives "dare main
tain" The Kellogg frauds have prov
ed too strong even for the noses Of
radical congressman who have mani
tested hearty disgust for the deeds
of their party,under the leadership
of their Louisiana heatheren, and
are leaving the ruinists to fight their
own battle before tho Committee,
to which the Louisiana election
case has been reported. We are
half inclined to believe, from the
revelations and developments which
are being unearthed almost daily
throughout the country, that there
is life in the old land yet" The
great work of investigation" and
disclosure has really begun, and
almost at the right Iplace.9 Had it

their hands and call the fearless

be thankful for, much to encourage

lives and that the rights OF the peo-
ple are sacred and can be protect

TEMPERANCE at lockwood.

LOCKWOOD, Jan. e, 1873.
EDITORS CHRONICLE: The citizens of
Rock wood were entertained last night by
a brilliant lecture on temperance by DR..
d. M. Breaker, delivered before the Rock
wood Council No. 176 United Friends of
Temperance. The audience was thrilled
by the stirring appeals made in the lecture,
and twenty-eight persons gave their
names to become members Of the organi-
cation. It would indeed be hard for any
man in his senses to resist the startling ar
ray of statistics on liquors and tobacco,
the cool reasoning and convincing argu-
ments of the eloquent speaker, and his ap-
peals to the reason and the heart The
meeting was grand success for Rock
wood, and we trust that favor and fortune
may ever attend the Doctors footsteps.
Yours truly, ID. G.
