THE STATE GovERNMENT.-We
have no melanch oily list of default
ers. to prove the oft repea,e d charge
OF rottcnness in the ADMINISTRATION
of the State government. Since the
outrageous steal perpetrated by the
first set of State officers, for which
three were Imprisoned, two driven
from Office, and the third escaped
with the Scotch verdict of "not
proven" the treasury has not lost a
dollar by default of plumber. For
evasions OF Il rigid law by which
not penny of the State money has
been lost or stolen, long line OF
Treasurers has been investigated"
two defeated for denomination
otherwise certain, and one impeach-
ed and driven from office. a Leg
islature and people which thus Wis
its punishment upon delinquencies
are not to be berated for yenality by
every two-penny demagogue.

MENNoNITES. = This religious
sect originated in the sixteenth CEN
fury, taking their name from Sim
onis Memo, their founder. They
reside principally in Holland, Prus-
STA, Russia, Canada and the United
States. In America they have some
300 ministers, 500 congregations and
90 600 communicates. One of their
disting uishing tenets is that it is
wrong to fight, and they refuse to
perform military duty. Those in
Russia were promised exemption
from this, but recently an imperial
ukase has gone forth which puts an
end to this exemption. Hence, to
avoid being dragged into the Rus
sian army and compelled to do that
which their Bibles and their con.
sciences testify is wrong, large num-
bers have decided to emigrate to the
United States, and the year 1875
will witness quite an accession 10
our population from this source.
They will not only be 5Dedc0bie cit
liens but valuable members of the
commonwealth in other respects
and it is hoped that the day is far
distant when our government will
by q foolish military policy drive
them from our shores as the Rms
sian government is now doing from
thairs.

STATE CREDIT.-There is nothing
SO sensitive as credit. That of

his own finger into the pie. The

that he received $1,000 of the $3.50,
