Lucky BoY.-The Tyrone Democrut
says; "Hon. John Reilly has appointed
W. G. Caldwell, son D. r. Caldwell,
Esq, of this place, to the Naval Cadet.
ship for this District, and notified him
to appear at the Naval Academy at
Annapolis, Tor examination, on the 18th
ofSeptember." This again shows that
Democratic Congressman refuse to
follow Radical precedents. Not ten
Democratic boys, outside of the relation
ship OF the Congressman, has received
Naval, or West Point Cadetship in
fifteen years, while thirty.fve Radical
boys have been honorcd by Democratic
Congressman in one year. The differ
ence is this; Democratic Congress
men select boys because of their merit
while it has been the practice of the
Radical members to choose only from
their own party friends, and then they
would charge the parent from one tc
three Thousand dollars for the appoint.
ment Had Mr.. Reilly adopted the
Radical plan and made party alone the
test young Caldwell would have re
mained at Tyrone.

A QUEER JoKE.-The editor of the
Philadelphia Press denies that the pub.
lie burthens of the people have been
increased during the past few years
by the employment Of an army of idle
clerks at Washington, yet, he admits
that the "bank redemption agency
has added one hundred and eighty-two
new clerks to the pay roll during the
past year, but ho coolly informs his
readers that tho expense is paid BY the
National Banks. This is wonderful
"let up" on burthens. Now, is II rea-
sonable to supposethat the officers and
Directors of the banks pay those one
hundred and eighty-two employees out
of their own pockets, or, is 1t not more
likely that the business man who OBJ.
tains discounts at their counters pays
for this Radical whistle?

CoMINo.-Tho Railway World says
the Rochester and State Line railroad
intended to tap the Pennsylvania
bitumnous coal field will be finished at
Salamanca BY the 1st Of January, 1877,
and next spring II will be pushed on
towards the coal basin of Jefferson
county. Honest Government and q
restoration OF public confidence, would
soon give us a northern opening for
our immense coal deposits These two
features the present political Jack
Shepherds, can never engraft on the
affections of people they have robbed
and betrayed for so many years. A
Wholesale change of agents at Wash
ington, and that alone is what will
bring about o revival of business. The
building of railroads will then com
mence with renewed vigor, log jobs
will open up, saw mills, furnaces, and
other machinery will begin to buzz as
formerly, and those who really want
w"rk can find il. Public confidence
can only be restored by wholesale
removal Of those agents who have
broken up the business of the country,
aud who have debauched both Church
and State. Away with tho Beechers,
Glendennings, and Gerdemaines, who
have "led astray" the sisters of their
Congregations, and imprison, or exile,
the Belknaps, Babcocks, and other
post-traders, cadet sellers "crooked"
whisky dealers and their coniederates.
When all these are turned out of Church
and State, then we will have peace and
prosperity, and not before.
