COURAGE IN NIGH PLACES.

COURAGE IN NIGH PLACES.
The Philadelphia Times has raised q
howl against Judge Stanton, Of Luzerne
county, Penn, for the only seeming reason
that he was elected by the lsboring men o.
the county-snd that he had enough courage
to sentence rich criminal. There cannot
be one word said against either the charac>
ter Of Judge Stanton, who is reputed to BE-
man of singularily pure morals; nor his
fitness for Judge. He is not of the
"Wilkesbsrre set," who are learned upon
the gout of terrapin, and the boquet Of
champagne he is not of judicial stature.
A Mr.. p luli, who some years ago kept a
hat store in South street, Philadelphia, was
convicted before him, for forgery, in inter.
lining covenant In one Of his poor tenants
leases: Dan Dougherty, who appeared be-
fore Judge Stanton, on . motion for . new
trial. Having failed to convince him that
the finding of the jury upon question of fact
should be cot aside, PAUL. was sentenced to
two years imprisonment In the county
prison. In Luzerne It was frightful in
vasion Of the rights Of tho pious set PAUL.
belonged TO, to try and sentence one of
them-hence the JSrors. The psor Of that
region Of country have been wronged and
oppressed for years with such fellows 20
PAUL., with impunity, often driving them to
bloodshed through tho denial Of justice In
the courta; but at last, brave and incor-
ruptible man Of the people has been placed
upon tho bench to sraits wrong doers, NO
matter Of what position In life. Luzerne
wanted Stanton to protect the poor man. .

THE KAYORALITY.

The time 10 approaching when our citi-
zens will bs called upon, to nominate q
successor to Mayor whiteley, and We trus,
their selection will be . wise one. The
Mayor Of city like ours ought TO be Q
gentleman of broad and liberal yiews-able
to address the members Of Council upon
municipal affairs, 90 such action 10 within
the proper scope of his duty; in fact the
Mayor and Council are too much apart
from each other. There ought to be con-
slant interchange of views and opinions bes
tween them; 90 a. to give Intelligent shape
and policy to urban legislation. There ore
some Democratic candidates named within
. day or 90, who are good men, but no bet
tor than these In the field.
One thing to be kept resolutely in view,
that direct pledge should be exacted Of q
candidate to keep his police out of politics
more especially the internal politics Of the
party. 1t is neither fair or justs, that q
body of men put in comfortable places by
the united power Of the Democracy, should
be used to promote the ends of an indivi-
dual Democrat, in primary contest. It
also 10 the intent and purpose of the organ
izstien Of body Of municipal peace officers
paid with the taxes Of the entire community
to have such persons interfere in politics.
GiAe us Mayor, who viii attend to his
business, and keep his club-nen out Of poll
tics.

PROTECTION QUE sALTArxON

Scientifically, free trade may bs right
It's theory, no doubt, has esptivsted our
Representative: We trust he 10 not above
looking at the example Of France. The
new exhibition now being opened at Paris,
says an able writer in the Saturday Review,
10 conservation of protection. Conquered
France has at last conquered ito proud caps
tor. Prince Bismarck has just issued .
manifesto through oLe Of his organs, in
which be explains his new financial policy.
1t seems that he has been meditating over
the financial system of France, and 10 lost
In admiration at what he finds to be it's
basis and it's method. 1t 10 through pro-
lection that France pays tho interest on the
millisrds which he carried off. He thought
that he had crushed France pecuniarily,
and be discovers that apparently she 10 not
crushed at all. Her national and local
taxation now amounts to about $50, ,000, 900
. year, and the Chamber gsily embarking
on new and vast schemes for railways,
canals, and improved military organization
How this is done 10 the question which
Prince Bismarck has seriously asked him
self, and the only answer he can discover Is
that It 10 done through . system Of wise
and bold protection. He therefore invites
bis sountrymen to be above initiating France
Free trade Is only theory, and theories, as
Goethe has taught bis countrymen, arc apt
to get grey and old. The green and golden
tree of life Is protection, and of that tree
sensible, prudent France has eaten freely,
and has prospered, while Germany has
looked on cold, miserable, and poor, feeding
itself on the wind, and pluming itself on
its philosophy. Scientifically, NO doubt,
France and Prince Bismarck are wrong
but, If there WAS one thing which the dis.
ciples of M. Golden could never have ex>
pected In 1851 to live to SEQ, It WAS the
spectacle of much grsAder Exhibition
than theirs, opened at moment when the
sblest OF German statesmen was exhorting
his countrymen to follow in tho wise paths
of protection. by adhering to which France
was enabled to produce amid order and
prosperity thi new wonder Of the world
The absurdity Of free trade for country
like ours must be apparent to any one Of .

The MAINE SURPRISE IN WASHING
ToN.-The Washington city correspon-
dent of the Baltimore Sun says: "The
politicians of both parties concur that
the result of the Maine election will have
an important influence on the fall elec-
tions yet to come. Whatever lingering
hopes that the Republicans may have
had of obtaining control of the next
House are now effectually dissipated, and
the Democrats are confidently claiming
that the majority of their party will not
be less than forty, which is double the
present majority. The spectacle Of a
Maine Democrat in the House of Repre-
seutatives will certainly be quite novel,
and the signs of the times indicate that
Democrats will be returned from other
quarters where they have been quite as
scarce as in Maine. 1t is conclusively
demonstrated now, contrary to what has
been held by politicians who pass for
wiseacres, that the Grsenback and Labor
element is the source of danger to the
Republican and of aid to the Democratic
party. A leading Massachusetts, Re-
publican, who has been Governor of the
State, and who has served in both
branches of Congress, says the result in
Maine will imperil very much Republi-
can prospects in Massachusetts, aud that
he will be agreeably disappointed if the
Democrats do not gain on the Congress
ional delegation from Massachusetts"

ALL ABOUT THE PULsE.-Every in
telligent person should know how to as
certain the state of the pulse in health
then by comparing it with what it was
when he is ailing he may have some idea
of the case. Parents should know the
healthy pulse o. each child, as now and
then a person is born with a remarkably
slow or fast pulse, and the very case in
hand may be of that popularity. An in
fant's pulse is 40; a child of seven
years, about 80, and from twenty to sixty
years, it is 70 beats a minute, declining
to so at fourscore. A L,althful grown
PERSONS pulse beats 70 times minute.
There may be good health down to 60 ;
but if the pulse always exceeds 70 there
is a disease. The machine is working
itself out; there is fever and infamma-
ton somewhere, and the bodyis feeding
on itself-as in consumption, when the
pulse is quick, that is, over 60, gradually
increasing with decreased chances OF
cure, until it reaches ITO or l20, when
death comes before many days. When
the pulse it over 70 for months, and
there is slight cough the lungs are
affected
