GRANGE MEETINo.--The State Grange
of the Patrons OF Husbandry met at llol-
idaysburg, on the llth, and continued
in session for three days. The Conven.
ton was presided over by Worthy
Master, Piollett. Tho address Of wei.
come was delivered by Miss Maggie
Moore, Of Blair county, on Wednesday
afternoon, and replied to by Mr.. Kay,
of Chester county. The public meet
ing was addressed by Mcssrs Piollett
Kay, Dickcy and others The turnout
was large. Out of tho GO counties in
the State all but six were represented
Over five hundred delegates were pres
ent. The initiation fee of SIS was re.
duced to SO, and SO to 81, by nearly
unanimous vote Heretofore each
State was entitled to two delegates to
represent them in the National Grange.
This clause Of the rules was so amend.
ed as to allow an additional delegate
for every 10000 members over the first
10000. Pennsylvania, although, not
so numerous in membership, as some
other States is substantially the most
prosperous, from the fact that her con
tributions in money is larger than that
ofany other State in the Union, Clear
field county was well and intclligently
represented 1.-THE Hollidaysburg meet

SCORING CoSRLlSo.-The Washing
ton Capital, in abiding to the personal
conduct of Senators, says; "Whcn u
man OF education undertakes to play
the demagoguo he is apt to play the
fool. Feeling that he has overshot
the average intelligence of the masses,
he swings TO the other extreme in un.
derratng their capacity. Senator
Conkling, is a politician born of cor.
poration, and helped into position
through no effort of his own, is With
out that experience necessary to a cor.
rect estimate of the elements, moral
and intellectual, which come into play
on the part of the people when small
man is lifted into a high place. To see
such man descending to the lowest
grade of cunning demagogueism, and
wave little flags and ay screaming
eagles, is about AS pitifnl sight as one
could sicken over. Senator Conkling,
having been ignored by the admins
tration he did so much to create, went
to Europe for the purpose OF making
a sensation. Without remaining abroad
long enough for his sensation to cook
he returned, coming up New York bay
waving two little flags, and at the
first point he could render available,
delivered speech that for ignorant
demagogueism is simply shameful"
