GIVE Us A REST.

The Republican says: "Our country wants
rest. Our business men want rest, labor
wants rest, but the eternal agitation that
Democracy is keeping up is killing capital,
killing labor, and prostrating every enter
prise" And then it talks about "originai
rebels" reenacting ''on bloodier scale the
scenes of 1861" The people of Columbia
county have grown so used to reading this
kind of stuff in the pages of our contemporary
that it has no effect upon them. They know
what it means. 1t is that somebody is after
the party of fraud, the party that steals any
thing from mule up to the White House,
and the knavery of that party is about to be
shown up. John Sherman, Stanley Mat
thews and Others are being gradually drawn
into the mesbes that will expose all their
chicanery, and possibly lead to their i'm
peachment, certainly to their degradation in
the eyes of the nation, the Republican party
sees the House of Representatives out Of
their grasp, and then they want rest.
Custom Houses and Post Offices will glide
from their fingers after another Presidential
election, and they must stay the tide that
sweeps them from power. The food gates
are opened, and the torrent is rushing over
this party of corruption and fraud, and in
three years more the Republican will have
its full share OF rest, for its party will
be so etIectually shelved that another decade
will know of it only in history Then give
us rest, the sooner the better.

"A Good Platform"

The nationals" down in Berks county
pretty good sound sense-in which respect
they do not very closely resemble the ma.
tionals" of Schuylkill county. At meeting
held in Reading on the 3lst ult., Nj.
John Amren made an earnest spe ech, in
which he sal "the democrats at Pittsbu rg
adopted splendid platform, and then he
reproved the republicans and declared that,
disguise it as they may, the republican party
throughout the west was for Tree trade. Mr..
Thomas King said 'he believed that tn e
democratic platform was very good one"
OF course both these gentlemen advocated
the election of the greenback ticket, but this
fact gives additional emphasis to their dec :
laration that the democratic platform was a
good one. The democratic platform is not
only good one, but it is entirely consistent
with the policy pursued by the democratic
party since it obtained control of one of the
coordinate branches of the government. If
the democratic platform is such good on e
in the eyes OF the nationalist" leaders, an
if the democratic party has conformed it $
policy to such platform, we don't exactl y

Fearful Accident in England.

Ga Friday last fearful colliery explosion
occurred in Evans Wood Pit colliery, at
lIal dack, six miles south of Wigan, Lam
cashire. The number of men in the pit at the
time is variously estimated at from 200 to
$50
Many of them have b'en brought up bad
ly injured. The larger part are believed to
be killed, but it is impossible to explore the
mine in consequence of fire. damp.
The explosion in the coal pit shook the
earth for miles around. The first explorer
descended the shaft five minutes after the
explosion, and others followed. Ten men
were rescued alive and were sent TO the sur
face, when one died almost Immediately and
the Others suffered much from after damp.
Eight other men are alive and have taken
refuge in working of the mine. Two hun
dred and thirty-two men are dead. The ex-
plorers state that they found bodies decapita-
ted, reduced to shapeless masses and some Of
them blown to pieces. 1t is expected that
the corpses will be brought up by midnight.
A large crowd of men, women and children
surrounded the mouth of the pit The cause
of the explosion is unknown, as blasting
with naked lights is prohibited.

The administration is taking care that
there shall be no more untoward revelations
as to the Louisiana frauds. The appoint
ment Of Morris Marks as Collector of In
ternal Revenue for the First district of Lou
isiana accomplishes at one stroke the re-
ward of the man who enticed Anderson in
to Secretary Sherman's Office with view
to getting the Supervisor of East Felcana
parish into the power Of the Secretary of
the Treasury, and closes the mouths of three
witnesses who were relied on to sustain An.
derson's testimony, the understanding bein 6
that Marks is 10 provide for them. Marks
is great rascal, and is one of the political
prostitutes who were called Hayes electors
in Louisiana. In that State it would be

The distressed workingmen looked in vain
among the various remarks in the republican
platform for some evidence that the party
now IN power intended to do something to re-
lieve their condition. Their anxious eyes
were met by some unmeaning generalities,
the purport of which was that the country
ought to be prosperous and the laboring class
es employed. This remark kable piece of vol
untary information is all that is vouchsafed
But what better could be expected from the
party which by its misapphcation Of the con-
stitution, its favoritism to corporations and its
unequal taxation has brought the country to
this state. The community never places any
reliance on promises Of reformation from a
thief who has been a score Of times convicted.
For the same reason the people cannot place
confidence in the weak protestations of par
ty which by long continued and often de.
monstrated corrupt control Of the government
has become thoroughly uupriucipled in all its
actions. 1t is evidently not from this source
that the workingmen must look for aid. Nei-
ther can anything be hoped for from this new
ly born political babe, the National party. 1t
is wrong from the start, resting upon theories
which never gan receive the sanction of the
people. 1t cannot now be expected to be of
Importance in the campaign, no matter how
bright its prospects of bec'ming the balance
of power might once have been. Its short
life reminds the political philosopher of a baby
that has expired from too much crying or
wind collie or something of that sort. Desert
ed by its leaders aud unable to persuade men
to accept its nominations, the national party
is a nonentity in Pennsylvania politics. The
power to which the people must turn in this
crisis is the democratic party. In the able
manifesto which the Pittsburg convention
sets before the people is found the true cause
and remedy of all the poverty and distress I'M
der which the country is now lying. The great
labor question is met and the laborer s demand
answered Corporations must be forced to
conform to the laws, boated IN onopolies which
feed on the government revenues must be
pricked with the keen sword of economy,
money must be placed in circulation and pros.
perity will follow. Honest administration of
the government is the preventive of all strikes
and the means by which to overcome this
comn.unistic bugbear.-PQtrist.

Bishop McCOskry.
THE SCANDAL THAT HAS FORCED A BISHOP
OUT OF THE CHURCH

DETR OFT, June THE scandal in which
Bishop McCoskry's name was involved few
weeks ago has been followed by his relin-
quishment of the office of bishop. 1t will be
remembered that Bishop McCoskry denied
his guilt, and that Fannie Richards asked
him to clear her name but the investiga-
ton of the case, which was begun after he
had reached New York on his way to Eu-
rope, brought out some documents that did
not admit of satisfactory explanation. The
report in the McCoskry affair that was yes
terday submitted to the Michigan Diocesan
Convention, in session here, contains doc
ument that had been received from him in
these terms
DETROIT, May IS, 1873.
As my resignation of my jurisdiction of
the Diocese of Michigan was withdrawn at
your request, and notice lied for meeting
of the House of Bishops to consider it,
now present my resignation of my Office rs
Bishop of the Diocese of Michigan. l find
l shall be utterly unable to discharge the
duties connected with that Office, and ] do
not wish to be burden to the diocese If
the subordinate offices Of the ministry.
SAMUEL A. MCCosKRY.
This letter of Bishop McCoskry was un =
satisfactory to the standing committee of the
diocese and so another letter of the same
date was sent to the presiding bishop, in
these words
DETROIT, May 1s, 1878.
| Having heretofore presented my resigna-
tion of jurisdiction of and over the diocese
Michigan, and subsequently withdrawn the
same, now desire and do hereby resign my
jurisdiction over the same, and do further
resign and relinquish my office as bishop in
the Protestant Episcopal Church of the
United States, and desire that the House of
Bishops may meet at the earliest convenient
season to consider and act upon this resigna-
tion, upon such length and manner of notice
as shall be thought best by the presiding
bishop. II.
SAMUEL A. MCCosKRY.
This resignation has been accepted. Con-
strued under the church laws it involves
not only the resignation of the bishopric, but
of the ministry also, and is of the most COM
plete kind. The convention has voted to
pay the resigned bishop an annuity of $500,
subject to revision by future conventions.

o. f. Bullard the Delaware county ex-
member of the Legislature, who was taken
from the county Jail by the house of Repre-
sentatiyes and afterwards escaped from the
sergeant'at- arms, has been convicted on the
charge of making fraudulent entries as sec
retary of building association. The jury
recommended him to the mercy OF the court
probably because the affairs of the associa.
tion had been so loosely conducted by the
directors as to encourage the secretary to
withhold money and use il in private specu-
lations.

William Cullen Bryant, the celebrated po.
ct and editor died at his residence in New
York on Wednesday morning. He was born
in 1874. His last public effort was speech
at the unyeiling of the bust of Mazzini, the
Italian patriot, in Central Park, New York
on ecoration day, which seemed to exhaust
him, and on his return to the house of q
friend he fell backwards with his head on 4
stone step, causing injuries from which he
did not recover. He was recognized as on'
of the greatest American poets.

Judge Pearson, of Harrisburg, rendered a
decision the other day which is OF consider
able interest to farmers everywhere. He de.
cided that supervisors are by law compelled
to assess the usual road taxes Immediately
upon entering upon their duties, and that
the books in which the assessments are
made shall be open to the inspection of the
taxpayers, aud that every man who chooses
to do SO may work out his road tax instead
OF paying it in money, No supervisor can
exact cash for tax in case the assessed party
chooses to pay it in labor.
