We have no doubt that the Granger movement
was conceived in good motive. We believe
that majority of the membership are SO dis
posed. Like all other organizations that assume
political shapes, it has allowed those to creep
IN who are actuatcd only by motives that con-
duce to the advancement of their ambitions
The political adventurer-there as elsewhere
when he comes to the surface reveals himself.
One day last week an amendment was made
to an appropriation bill in the House of Repre-
sentatives which allows agricultural reports to
pass through the mails free Of charge. And it
is claimed that it was done as concession to
the Changers. 1t is simply an sdroit way of
reviving the franking privilege-which we
hope was relic of the past. II the Changers
are sincere in their professions of reform, they
will at once repudiate the idea that this insidi-
GUS attempt to revive the privilege meets their
appreciation. The farmers are the fellows who
have been crying loudest for reform. They
now have an opportunity to prove the sincerity
of their preaching. If the mails must carry
matter free for farmers, it is unjust tc deny it
to others. If denied to others it lis unjust to ex-
tend the privilege to farmers.

Letter from PhitUdelphiN.


The annual inspection and review of the mil
itary of Philadelphia took place on Wednesday
in the Park. The ranks were we'll filled, and
the men looked remarkably solderly. There
were about three thousand under arms, and the
evolutions were performed in a very creditab!e
manner, elicitng frequent applause from the
crowds of spectators.
In addition to number of other prominent
military men who were at headquarters during
inspection, Governor llartranft, Adjutant Cen
eral Latta, and Major General Button, the Sec
ond Division, appeared on the field at noon.-
A dress parade of the entire division, which
was begun shortly before six o'cPk in the even
ing, closed the exercises of the day, Governor
Hartranft reviewing the line from the division
headquarters.
Landsdowne in the Park has always hereto
fore been selected as the place for the Field
Day, but it must now yield to its successful
rival Edgeley, than which there is not more
suitable and beautiful spot in Philadelphia
Visitors to our city should be sure to see these
charming places in the Park. They are easy
of access by water and rail, and the scenery
along the way is most pleasing at this season Of
the year.

1t is strange that there is such an infatuation
among people with regard to this game The
persons who play on the mines are sporting
characters, and their adhcrents belong to the
same style. We have games for the champion
ship, and in very many instances they are sold
beforehand in the interests of the gambling
fraternity. In christian and moral commu-
nifty like that of Philadelphia, it seems singu-
lar to see emblasoned in attractive letters, on
the front of large public house in cons pic
uous part of Chestnut Street, the announce
ment "pools sold here" thus encouraging gam
bling, and demoralizng our young people.
There is law in our state against betting
and games Of chance. Why should base bali
be an exception, and betting be publicly allow
ed on the grounds, even in the very presence
OF policemen who are appointed to arrest all
offenders? It is tine that there were some re-
formation in this respect, or our youth will be
in great danger of becoming ruined by the evil
example set before then. The rising genera
ton bid fair not to be an improvement upon
their ancestors.

he STOCK MARKET.

During this week there was quite panic in
the stock market, and Pennsylvania Railroad
fell to S47s. This is the lowest figure 1t has
touched since the failure Of Jay Cooke, and it
is safe to predict that it will again be brought
SO low. There is no reason why the stock of
the company should not be S5j to-day. The
bears had gala time this week, but their ioy
is now at an end, aud stocks m wing up
ward in the bulls interest. Persons become
frightened and they throw their shares upon
the market, thus knocking down the prices.
and creating panic.
A visit to the Merchants Exchange during
an exciting time in the stock market would sug-
gest the idea of Bedlam let loose. The strang-
err would not be likely to understand the man
ner in which the brokers dispose of stocks, and
the scene presented is ne of apparently mad
confusion. We recommend visitor to Phila-
delphia to attend stock sale at the Exchange,
and he will return home much astoniched
man.

THE destruction of the Institute
for the Blind, at GAINESVILLE, as an
nounced is most deplorable event.
The pecuniary loss to the State is
about S250,000. The calamity Is
somewhat mitigated by the certain
ty that the generous people OF
GAINESVILLE viii not permit the in
mates to suffer any hardshjps. The
next consideration should be as to
replacing the building, or providing
some temporary structure for the
accommodation of the pupils; and
the building season which IS now
opening, ought not to be allowed to
elapse without some progress being
made in this work. Whether it is
competent for the trustees or the
Governor to proceed in this matter
without some action by the Legisla-
ture is questionable ; but they may
safely assume any responsibility
