The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1876-07-07

Judge Harding of Luzerne county, from
all accounts, has got himself in AN unpleas-
ant situation. Two of the County Com
missioners who were indicted for receiving
bribes and for embezzlement of public mon
ey, when brought up for trial plead guilty,
and were sentenced by Judge Harding to
pay back the money. In passing sentence
his Honor remarked that the prosecutors,
Messrs. Dickson and Payne, did not desire
the Imprisonment of the offenders. In an.
swer to this, those gentlemen have published
Letter squarely denying that they ever ex-
pressed any such feelings, but on the con-
trary had distinctly said To the Judge that
they would not be satisfied with the simple
imposition of fine. This places Judge
Harding in the position of having uttered II
deliberate ialsehood from the bench in Or
der that he might let two public plunderers
go scot free. There is another charge against
this dignitary of having accepted a five hun
dred dollar watch and chain from builder
named Houpt, whom he had aided in secur-
ing fat contract from the Commissioners.
If this be true, the whole thing looks as
though the light sentence passed on the
prisoners was for the purpose of closing their
mounths about any little matter in which
the Judge might oe interested. The Lu-
zerne papers are calling loudly for HarIing's
resignation.

Our friend, the senior Editor of the r, :

Aforesaid" which is postmaster left

when Simon said "wigwag" saw superior
excellence in Hayes, we would call his at
tention to the fact that he is justified in his
course of swapping horses while crossing

First. However captivating the eloquence
Of Col. lngersoll, he has been lately arrested
AS defauiter to the Government.
Second. lie is a theosophist This is

without fear we give him back, AS it were, to
Nature the source and mother of us all.
With mora, with noon, with night, with
changing clouds and changeless stars
with grass, with trees and birds, with
ing vine, with all the sweet influences of
Nature, we leave our dead We do not
anticipate that the colonel will have any
large number of engagements for funerals.
There is too little assurance in his style. As
an engineer of political nominations and as
a funeral manager he is not pronounced
success.
No better reasons need be urged to con-

S. SENATOR is being agitated among the
people of New Hampshire, in which OF
course much interest is felt. The pres.
ent term Of Senator Cragin expires on
the fourth of March next, and we OBJ
serve that many in this section of his
state desire his reelection. Mr.. Cragin
has made most excellent record during
his entire public life and his reelection
would be hailed with great satisfaction
throughout the country. Upon this sub
ject we have this week received the fol.
lowing from New Hampshire gentle
man, who favors Mr.. Cragin's re-elec-
ton, and as will be seen also takes the
occasion to pay handsome compliment
to the Vermont Senators, past and pres
ent
Mr.. EDITOR MANY of your read
ers just over the river, where you have
not few subscribers, would be glad to
see Senator Cragin, native of your
state, returned to the United States
Senate for another term. 1t may be
urged that he has no claim to it, having
had it two terms. Very true and he
himself would admit as much. But
have the people of New Hampshire no
claim on him for his integrity, ablestates-
manship and long experience in public
affairs No faint attaches to his public
career. He has never sold his vote
He is chairman of most important
in the Senate-naval affairs. |
He is found to be safe, honest, reliable |
and wise law-maker Are not expert
ence and tried ability to have any weight? |
an office to be put up and knocked
down to the highest bidder or given sim
ply as reward to the most Jealous par
tizan? In these evil days, when ex-reb- |
els are trying to get control of the gen
eral government, when they would like
to leave New England out in the cold"
is it not supreme folly to retire to private
life, able and experienced statesmen ?
You in Vermont do wisely-well in keep

tifully carved affair, about seven and a
half feet in height, and prehaps two and
half feet in width, the very best of
French walnut being used in its con-
struction. Messrs. Lawrence q Son
gave to the manufacturers a carte blanche
order, and Messrs. i. Hixon a. Co. of
Boston, we'll established as their reputa.
ton has been for many years, have fin
lshed nothing more ingenious or more
creditable. Samples of the Medford

IN which it will be shown. The exhi-
bit rests upon beautifully carved pedes-

Over the pyramid of samples is raised
an elegant canopy of veneered French

rolling screen of polished wood the dis.

There is some fine silver work in the
case from the establishment of Jesse

base of ebonized wood, protected by a
silver railing. As a specimen of Amer.
lean manufacture it is certainly worthy
OF highest praise. Its cost was upward
of $4,000; but Messrs. Lawrence q

for the proper presentation of their spec.

standard brand, and is fast supplanting
all inferior manufactures. Lawrences
