Miners Meeting.

A notice appears under the head Of
New To-Day" cllling a meeting of
miners at the office Of Judge Hub
bard tomorrow morning for the pur-
pose of making arrangements for the
election of a District Mining Recorder.
The last annual election, if our mem
September. The principal bushes to
be considered at the meeting to-mor-
row, we presume, will be the naming
OF polling places and the selection of
Judges and clerks of the election.
Ruby Hill is entitled to a precinct,
and it might be we'll for a delegation
or miners from that important por-
ton of the district to attend the pre-
iiminary meeting with the view of
securing it. The emOluments of the
office of Mining Rrecorder are
not so large t. cause any
special strife for the position.
IL IS, however, right and proper that
the services of a competent and trust
worthy gentleman should be secured,
n to this end those who are inter-
ested in mining property in the dis
trlct should see that the election does
not go by default. We have heard
mentioned as candidates. j. w. Craw-
ford and Bob Cavanaugh. Either of
these gentlemen would make a good
recorder. If there are others who
nave aspirations in that direction, we
presume they will trOt themselves
out in due time.

Putting the Responsibility Where 1t De.
longs.

What is written under the above head
ing by the North American is worthy of
the most careful reading and reflection.
We are not about to pronounce this
the most corrupt era the world has ever
known, because multitudes who never
hestow glance upon the past will have
done that already and because every
period in the worlds history has in its
turn been decreea such bad eminence -
Human nature is pretty much the same
in every age, and deviations from the
right line of honorable dealing will doubt
less continue to shock and grieve right
minded men while the world stands. But
disreputable practices are just now hav-
ing full consideration, and it seems the
right time TO discuss the question. WHO
is responsible for this state of affairs %
We read that, upon more riged examiua-
lion, the frauds practissd upon the treas
uries of New York city and county seem
likely to reach forty millions inste ad of
the eighteen millions heretofore set down
as the sum. Men who knew Mr. Tweed
when he was compelled to purchase for
cash, having no credit, are astounded at
the sway he finally gained in New York
nolitics Tbeu cannot p ,mnrehend IL af
eli. Upon full consideration it may ap-
pear that there was nothing astonishing
about it.
At the outset then, we may affirm that
no rogue ever gets into the ruling posi-
tion in any community without the con-
niyance and consent of the leaders of one
party or the other. WIN. NJ. Tweed was
bold operator, who developed an extra
ordinary degree Of executive ability in!

The Credit Mobilier and the Pennsylvan ania
Legislature,

A member o. the Constitutional Con
veniion some days ago stated in a speacl
that the Credit Mobilier had sought tt
procure a charter in the Legislatures OF
New York and New jersey, but the
price demanded there by the members
for such Legislation was too high for that
organization. 1t then came to the Pom,
syivania Legislature, Which gave it a
charter for $4,000. This charge made
by man named Boyd las been denied
Jacob Ziegler. cdi:or of Zieyl,rs Dem
ccrot, who assisted in getting the credit
mobilier through the Legislature makes
the following explanatory remarks
The allegation made by Dir. Boyd,
That $50 900 were expended in procuring
the charter from the Legislature is au en-
tire mistake. We do not believe there
was one dollar expanded for any such
purpose One thing is certain, beyond
even the semblence of doubt, and, that
is, neither Gen. Duff Green, Hon. David
l.. Porter, nor ourseif ever gave a dollar
to either Senators or Representatives for
their vote on the passage Of tie BILL
We were the three person. who shaped
the bill md had it presented to the Leg
isla,ure we advocated it on the broad
merit of being the most feasible means Of
uniting the Atlantic and Pacific sea-
boards by rail developing the rich min
eral resources of the people, and advanc-
ing the interests of the country gener-
ally.
After we had passed the bill, we went
TO Philadelphia and organized the COM
pany. The war broke out and the whole
matter was lost sight of. Duff Green
was in the South attending to a sick wife
and shut out from all communication with
the North. Hon David r. Porter was
in Harrisburg and in feeble health. We
were engaged in contributing all our fee
bic ability to put down the rebellion and
so in the midst of the confusion, incident
to the thea existing state of public affairs
the books, papers, &c, were taken to
New York, and there, together with the
charter made the basis of the whole
villainous proceedings which Congress is
low engaged in investigating. We were
induced to sell our stock for S275 under
the representation that the project would
never amount to anything in the then
condition of the charter. Subsequent to !
the sale, we were informed that our thir-
ty paid up shares together with the stock
subscribed, would have realized Sl,l0O,-
600.
We do not believe one dollar was even
offered to pass the bill by the New York
or New Jersey Legislatures. The Leg
islature Of Pennsylvania was the first
importuned for its passage. and they did
it without the payment of dollar.
Another matter. The idea of fleeing
the Government of the United States,
by the mobilization Of its credit in the
of the Union Pacific rail
road, was conceived by the New York
parties, and by them carried to suei, cx-
tent as has forced Congress to investigate
the conduct of all concerned in the bust
ness.

when she left. with one of the children |
accompanying her, for a two days visi,
to her friends. The parents of the child
waited sor more than week for the re-
turn of the woman. She not returning
at that time they became uneasy, and the
mother of the child started after them,
finding them in New York. The woman
stated that she was on her way home
and desired to accompany the lady back

ever, declined having anything further to
DO with her. an! after securing her little
girl returned home. a much happier, and
It is hoped, much wiser woman.
