Nothing that has been developed by the
Credit Mubiier Investigation has surprised
any one who understands the operations of
tho Washington lobby. AS long ago as the
administration of President Polk, about
1916, it was strongly desired by certain
holders of the scrip of the newly admitted
State of Texas, issued before her admission
and while she was an independent Power,
that the United States should assume and
pay those obligations. They amounted to
about thirty million of dollars. The meas
ure was strenuousy opposed. To obviate
this opposition some of these holders went
to members Of Congress and sold to them
large amounts of the obligations at fifty
cents on the dollar, offering and agreeing
to wait for their pay till the United States
should guarantee the payment of the scrip.
Nothing whatever was said about votes or
influence. If the United States failed to
assume, no payment need be made, as the
scrip would be nearly worthless. A mem
Der who bought on these terms considered
the purchase a legitimate transaction but
when the vote came to be taken, the small
ness Of the effect of powerful adverse elo-
quence and logic was remarkable. That
clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to
the Federal Constitution which !orbids the
recognition of the Confederate debt in any
way whatever, was put in to prevent far
more successful repetition of this trick.
Thousands of millions of this worthless
paper were afloat in 1866 and a million
could be offered to wavering Congress-
man at one cent on the dollar. His vote
on the question of assumption need never
be asked for and if his endorsement of
the same ruined him with his constituents,
he could emigrate to Europe, and defy
them, while he lived nabob on the pro-
ceeds of au act that the law was powerless
to punish. -MercdnfHe Journal.

On Thursday evening of last week,
Rev. Joseph Chandler, late pastor of the
Congregational church in this village, was
surprised by an informal visit on the part
of a large number of his former parishion-
ers, who, with a few other friends, gave
him a cash testimonial of their esteem to
the amount of SIR hundred dollars. Mr..
Chandler is now supplying the Congrega-
tional pulpit In Saxton's River village,
where he has an engagement for the pres
ent year.

TO the kind friends who surprised us on
the evening of Jan. 80, by their farewell
testimonial of six hundred and twenty-five
dollars, we tender our hearliest thanks.
May the Lord who $40, eth a cheerful Civ

and enrich them in everything to all boun-
tifuness, which shall cause through us
thankfulness to God"

.uOBILIRx COMMENT.

The fact Is, that the general tone has been
lowered both in politics and commercial
transactions, and nothing less than con-
vulsion of this sort would prove a tonic for
1t. The congressman who are punished
may get some consolation from the fact
that they will, in measure, suffer vicari-
ously for the whole people. The implica-
tons in this business are wide, and reach
all parties. But it is especially true of the
republican party that 1t cannot afford to
have the investigation stop short Of the
most exhaustive search. 1t is in power,
and IL Is responsible before the country.
SO far it has not shrunk from its duty.
To do so non Would be its ruin-Hartford
COurunt.

What is the most marked popularity of
these Credit Mobilier developments, one
and ALP 1t is the morbid fear of pub
lie discredit-the desperate shifts and ex-
ertions to cover up something which, in
many cases, would have been regarded as
Of no account If IL had been frankly ac-
knowledged at the outset and what is all
this but IA tribute to a public opinion which
is felt to be just and is feared to be inexor-
able? As long as such a public opinion
exerts its sovereign sway at Washington,
there Is no danger that corruption can pass
beyond individual aud limited bounds.
There will be times, Of course, when poit-
ical corruption, like the more ordinary
criminal propensities, will take on some
thing of an epidemic character, due to spec
ia causes, but exceptional and transient.

Horse Frigh tened.

On Thursday night last, horse be-
longing to B. C. Washington, ESQ.,, and
attached to a cart, whilst being driven
over Potato Hill became frightened,
and jumped down the embankmeut
near the house Of the late Samuel
Sheet, knocked down panel of fence,
ran into garden and fell into a well.
The driver, a colored man, was thrown
from the cart and considerably Jared
and bruised. The horse, in the course
OF an hour and a hall, was extriCated
from his perilous position, and strange
to say, may be said to be doing better
than when he was in the 'rcN condition.

A Store Robbed in harrisburg,

The store OF John Boarman, on
the corner OF Queen and Burke streets,
one of the most public places in town.
being near the market house, opposite
the Everett House and in sight OF the
police office, was entered and robbed on
Wednesday night OF flannels, calicoes
and other dry goods to the amount OF
two hundred and fifty dollars. From
what we can learn an entrance was
affected by removing some brick from
the rear wall of the building which
left the front of the store secure, and we
suppose deceived the night police, as We
are informed they noticed a light in the
store and waited around the outside to
see who would come out, hut in the
mean time the thieves "doused the
glim" and went out the rear way. We
are sorry those fellows escaped thus
easily, and trust that in the future the
police will not trust too much 10 appear
ances, but will 60 right in and probably
secure the offenders. We have attribut.
ed the paucity Of burglaries to the etf-
cheney OF our night police and we hope
they will be able to keep up their
record. -Independent.
