New HoPE HILL SeHooI. On last Friday
afternoon the Now Hope Hill School was
graced by the presence of County Superin-
tendent Hugh 3. Eastburn, the Borough
Board of School Directors, entire, with tho
exception of one, and large number of Wis
itors, who assembled to witness public exam
nation of the different grades of scholars in
the various branches Of study, and other ex-
orclses suitable to the occasion.
Mrs. Mary Merrick, one of the instructors,
had charge of the examining process, being
followed by questions from Mr. Eastburn, and
in this department the pupils acquitted them
selves creditably, and reflected honor on their
teachers.
The above exercise was interspersed with
the reading Of the School Lyceum paper, by
w. G. Ryan, and, by the way, contained much
interesting matter the local hits now and
then were good, as well as laughable. Essays
were read, pieces spoken, and ROTATIONS CIV

other exercises was also here equally develop

in token of the efficient bearing of the school.
Short speeches were also made by Mr.. T. t.
Eastburn and Dir. John Thornton, Of the
Board of Directors. As the visitors present
were mostly of class interested in the pro-
motion of education, of course they retired

Gen. BabcOck's Case.

Unprecedented persons generally gave Gen.
Babcock the full benefit of every doubt,
when he was on trial for conspiracy in con-
nection with the Whisky Ring. His
acquittal was a qualification, not merely to
bis friends, but to all fair minded people.
The testimony, however, of Whitley, the
ex-Treasury detective, duplicating him in
the notorious safe burglary conspiracy,
comes at bad time for his reputation, so
far as public opinion is concerned. While
it is true, that no man could be convicted
upon the uncorroborated testimony of a
witness like Whitley, and that the case is
thus far entirely inferential against Bah
cock, yet it cannot be denied that the most
unprecedented have doubts about his inno-
cence, which can only be dispelled by the
most positive evidence. Public opinion
may be unjust to him, but it is msfor-
tune, the direct result of his own acts
His intercourse and transactions with a
class of men with whom, by his own admis
sion, he did not care to come in contact,
will require the fullest explanation to re-
lieve him of the shadow under which he
has fallen. Had he not been implicated in
the whisky frauds, by an indictment and
prosecution, this case would have made as
little impression upon the public mind as
the idle charges preferred against Mr..
Bristow or Mr.. Blaine. AS it is, his char
acter needs the fullest vindication upon the
clearest evidence.

Impartial Investigating Committee.

The true inwardness of Mr.. Glover's in
vestigating committee is displayed in the
obstinate refusal to call before it for exami-
nation, Mr.. Eldridge, of Wisconsin, who
asks to be allowed to furnish the very evil
dence, for refusing which, Kilbourne, the
associate of Eldridge in the real estate
pool, has been locked up in Jail. The true
reason however is, that political capital can
be made out of one witness and not out of
the other. Eldridge is Democratic ex-
Congressman, and kilbourne unfortunately
Republican. The experience of Mr.
Clymer when he caught Pendleton so unex-
pectedly in his drag, net, is sufficient warn
ing to Glover and his committee to take
only the right kind Of "game." Eldridge
stands patiently at the door of the commit
tee, but no one will give him entrance. He
assures them that they shall know all about
the mysterious transactions of " the pool.
That he will 60 with them into its turbid
waters, and "come up" again. In fact,
begs to assure them that he will tell them
call" But still to no purpose. Demo
cratic crookedness is worth nothing on the
record; in fact it never gets there; at least,
rarely. But if it prove of the Republican
stamp, look out for scandalous reports;
stenographers are busy, and the columns
of "the faithful organs TEEN with the
recital of fresh sensation.
