Be Careful Where You Go and

The three " lecherous eOnspirators,"

Who recently tried to ruin a young lady
of that city BY dccoying her into house
OF i'll fame and then assault NJ her
when there, have been convicted, and
each sentenced to one years imprison
ment. This seems to be very light
punishment for SO aggravated an offence
as that charged against the prisoners.
But in passing sentence the judge said
that although the main charge, that the
young lady had been decoyed into a
house of Ill fame, had been proved, the
charge of aggravated assault rested
alone on the evidence of the prosecu
trix, aud as her conduct had not been
above reproach, he would not make the
sentence as severe as 1t would other
wise have been.
The young lady, the victim of the
assault, was anxious 10 get married, it
seems, and the couspirators decoyed
her into the house on the pretense tba;
they wished to introduce her to ship
captain Kho wished to get wife. At
least one Of the parties to the conspir-
acy was known to the young woman and
her father as former proprietor of
house of bad repute, and as person
whose society, if only for walk for a
walk on the street, was sufficient to
blast tue reputation of any woman.
Notwithstanding these well known facts,
the candidate for husband accompan-
led him, with the result as previously
announced. This occurrence consti-
tutes an additional proof of the impor
tance of great care III the selection of
associates, and absolutely correct de-

a Time to Consider an Amend

reason why a man should refuse to

His thinking may partake of the dis
temper which has Frustrated his body,
but that does not always follow. Ad
veEsity sometimes clears the mental and

it will not, We think, be denied
that the nation is now passing through

The Next State Treasurer.

Colonel William b. Hart, the eour
teous and eAcient cashier OF the Stste
Treasury, Is prominently named III
connection With the Republican rom
ination of State Treasurer, to succeed
Hon. Henry Raw!e. The hearty and
general approval with which his name
is received throughout the whole State
is Just tribute to brave soldier and
worthy official, whose career 10 the ar
my was as brilliant as his services as q
State officer have been marked by 4
faithful regard for the public interests.
Col. Hart entered the army in 1861 as
a private soldier and served with
great gallantry in the Eas. and West,
participating in all the battles il which
ais command was engaged.
While still sergeant, his manly
qualities and soldieriy bearing. attract
ed the attention of General hartrsnft
who recommended him in highly
fattering manner to Hon. Edwin N
Stanton, Secretary o! War, tor ap-
pointmen, as Assistant Ajjutant Adju
tant General, with the rank of aptsIn,
and TO show bis appreciation OF his
merits requested the War Department
70 assign Captain Hart to his own br-
gade. Upon this recommendation he
was Immediately appointed and served
with General Hsrtranft to the close of
the war. In 1867 Colonel Hart was
appointed to clerkship in the State
Treasury, and in 1870 was promoted
TO the responsible and important pos
:tiou Of cashier. where his intelligence
and ability a. an accountant aud tamil
iarity with finances Of the State have
made lin an invalubie ,ficer, and the
standard authority to whom all the
officers of the Commonwealth turn for
council wher Legislation in the Interests
of the State Treasury i. needed.
Col. Hart's intimate and through
knowledge of the TAX laws and of the
whole manchinry of our tax system, ID
of inestimable value to our citizens. and
if elected State Treasurer cannot but
prove of iucalcuiable benefit to the
commonwealth. His promotion by
election 10 the treasurership would be
. fitting testimonial of our people TO his
value and worth and practical illus
trati0n Of their belief in a civil service
Officers with his capacity and integ-
rity are rarely imported into the public
service, and when found there the pee
pie should see to it that they are re-

Col. Hsrt's position at Harrisburg
has necessarily given him a large ac
quaintance and made him hosts of
friends, and the generous response made
TO the mention of his name in connec-
