MSKPHY'S REFORM MOVEMENT

A very meritorious movement has
been originated in Pittsburg i'll
Pennsylvania for the reclamation of
fallen women. Mr.. Murphy, who
has had such success rs a temper
ance lecturer in the East, is at the
head Of the affair, and great success
is being had. A number of prom
inent Christian ladies are assisting
very actively in the work, and IN con-
sequence the meetings which are be-
ing held are nightly crowded. 1t
too often happens in great move
ments towards reformation, that all
measures are directed towards the
reclamation of men alone, and fallen
women are uncared for. But if it is
meritorious to reclaim, the fallen of
one sex, then the same argument will
apply to the other. And it is mat
ter of rejoicing that u movement OF
this kind is being largely inaugu'
rated in the East, and that it will ex'
tend from Pennsylvania to the other
States is to be earnestly desired.

For over two centuries a Latin manu-
script of lectures delivered by Martin Luz
Their in Wittenberg in 1913 has been ly-
ing in the Royal Library in Dresden. 1t
was written by Luther while he was yet II
faithful member of the orthodox Roman
Church, and is a commentary from the
mOnkiSh standpoint, with a strong ten
dency to allegOry, upon preceding com
mentators on the Scriptures. The hand
writing is very clear and precise, but the
manuscript has, nevertheless, been very
difficult to dscipher, owing to its many
authorizations. A Dresden parson under
took the task of transcribing it into Ger
man, and two large printed volumes,
Royal Library and the Minister of Public
Worship, are the result. A fac-simile of
one page of the MS, reproduced by
photo lithography, is given.

THE FLORIDA CASE.

The decision OF the Commission. re'a-
tive TO the Florida case. is anxiousiy
awaited BIZ the country at large. All the
papers and necessary documents are
already in the hands of the members
and active work has been commenced.
Both Republicans and Democrats have
filed their objections against the electors
opposing their respective sides, and these
objections have been prepared with great
eomprehensiveness and care. twill re-
ouire considerable time to 60 through
with all the forms of the law IN regard
to the case, but upon its decision will
probably depend the final result. The
Commission will not decide without a
fair discussion of the merits OF Doth
sides, and the country at large will &C.
auiesce in the result. The main ques-
ton in dispute relates to their power OF
going behind the action of the State he
turning Boards. 1t is said by some that
such power will be exercised, while others
arc equally strenuous in opposition
Whatever may be the result, it will affect
decision in the case of some of the other
disputed States, and no hasty conclu-
sions will be made. The very best legal
talent of the country is engaged in con-
sidering the matter. and every objection
is being accurately weighed in the scales
of justice and law. The two Houses
will not meet again in joint session until
the report of the Commission can be
made. and this will not occur for several
DAYS. Then the certificates of the other
States will be opened. and all objections
will be disposed of in a way similar to
that which is now in progress. The
conclusion of the Florida case is anx-
iously awaited by the country at large.

We have no quarrel to wage at
present with Mr.. John Il. McPher-
son of New Jersey. He has been
chosen to represent his State in the
Senate of the country, and but few
men would decline such an honor ii
the same were presented. But In
allowing the defeat of their candidate
the Republicans have committed an
error which entities them at once to
lust censure and blame. No man has
ever represented his State better in
the councils of the nation than FIRE.
linghuysen of New Jersey. An ex-
cellent rhetorician, and able and
efficient debater, an educated man in
every sense of the word, he has gain
ed o reputation throughout the coun-
try for craftsmanship and ability,
and his vote and acts are ever in ac-
cordance with his reputation at large.
He is just the man to represent the
country at Washington, just the man
to model the future from the exper-
fences Of the past. And yet merit is
not always the basis in a political
fight. We're it so Frelinghuysen
would never have been defeated, Nc
Pherson never would have been elect
ell. Tis true the latter is of Scotch
descent, has served several years in
the Senate Of his State, and was an
clector on the Greeley Presiden-
tial ticket four years ago. But for
all that he is nothing but live stock
dealer, the president of gas com
pany in Hudson City, a man with but
few qualifications for the position to
which he has been named. 1t is to
the shame of our politicians that
such mistakes are made. The Re
publicans grow apathetic and I'M
mindful, the Democrats swoop down
upon their unsuspecting prey, an
able lawyer steps down from the
councils of the nation, and an I'M
fit man becomes one of the great
est representatives in the same. This
is not the course to be commended
in detail, it shows a want of intelli-
gence and reason, it is political
drama with the word justice left out.
1t is too late now to remedy the mis-
take, the vote has been taken, and
the change has been made, but Re
publicans in the future should take
warning from the past, and when
ability can be found to represent
them in the nation, the same should
be supported in every honorable way.

One OF the most extraordinary judicial
errors on record was rectiiied in the first
week of this year i'm Bristol, England. A
man named Lewes had been convicted
an n charge Of stealing books. few
days later il was found that the Grand
Jury mad failed to find q true bill against
him, and had ignored the charge for want
OF evidence. Nevertheless the magistrate
had convicted him, although he had not
even been indicted, and when the order
arrived for his release. he had been close
cropped and dressed in convict uniform.
Lewes threatens an action for damages,
but his chance OF redress probably de-
ponds largely upon his pecuniaTy means.

Two legislatures have already decided
this question for Eureka, and it is but
fair that the rights Of that county should
be respected.
Mr.. Moore confessed his disappoint-
ment in Bailey's speech. He thought
his map fraud, and if Rockill had been
there to explain, it could easily have
been mistaken for q map of the Holy
Land. The gentleman spoke at length
in the matter, and said that no arrange
ment had ever been entered into to give
Mineral Hill to Eureka. It was only q
ruse for additional tax in favor of that
county, and the arguments on the other
side were inconsistent and without truth.
Pending Mr.. Moore's speech recess
was taken.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
After o call of the House had been Or
dered and dispensed with, Mr.. Moore
resumed his argument. He said that it
was ridiculous to affirm that they would
trade off S2O4, 900 worth of property for
the mere fact of having the State Uni
versity located at Elko. The gentleman
continued at length in opposition to the
bill and hoped the same would not pass.
Mr.. Griswold, as the representative of
this district in dispute, spoke against
the proposed change, and said he bad
been elected especially on this issue.
Both Democrats and Republicans had
voted for him, and they all wished to re-
main in Elko county.
Mr.. Bailey here replied at length, and
afterwards Mr.. Moore answered the a.
guments of the same.
The bill was placed on its final pass
age, and passed by vote of 80 to 8.
Adjourned at $40.
