A'GREAT EXHIBITION IN 1S79.-Eng-
land has decided to have great
show next year. 1t will be an agricultural
exhibition. The expense is estimated at
s750,O00. The Lord Mayor of London has
appealed to the British public for the sup
port of the projected enterprise. 1t is to
be under the auspices of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society. Agriculture is declining
in Great Britain, and there is some hope
that the exhibition may arrest its down
ward course. The number of cattle and
the acreage Of wheai, and other crops are
decreasing, and very nearly one-half the
population OF the United Kingdom is now
dependent for sustenance upon imported
food.

WHILE the Democratic members Of
Congress unanimously favor an investiga-
tiun into the Florida election frauds, there
is a difference of opinion as to the scope
aud authority OF the investigation. IL is
believed that the wisest course to pursue is
to lay the entire facts connected with the
frauds before the country, so that the peo-
pie may understand how the Democratic
party was cheated out Of its NEGLECTED
President, but not to take any step towards
Isopening the decision Of the Electoral
Commission in favor Of Hayes election
In the Judgment Of the best Democratic
lawyers, that decision must stand and
Hayes remain undistnrbed in the possession
Of his Office. No resolution has yet been
offered for the appointment Of a committee,
but i. will be attended to in due time, and
the investigation proceeded with after tho
adjournment Of Congress.

IT is a TepToach 10 Pennsylvania politics
to see the three leading Republican candi-
dates for Governor tIayursing the length
aud breadth Of the State in hnt pursuit of
delegates to the State convention. A.man
who in advances of q nomination for the
high office OF Governor viii stoop TO cou-
quer by han king his own claims through
out tie Sise and entering into the lowest
sort of combinations To promote his own
success, as he must necessarily do, com
promises his manhood aEd ought 90 forfeit
the respect Of the people. Democrats can
point with feeling nf pride to the fact
that the gentlemen of their party who have
been most prominently named in connec-
tinn with the Samet,h.ee have pursued quite
a different course. not being ambitious oil
becoming the uunpcttrs of their own
fame. Iho proper method aud time for a
candidate for Governor To let the people
know what hs believes, and what he will
do if elected, Is on tho stump after the
nomination has been made, aud if his op-
ponent can be induced to meet him in
public discussion at the most prominent
points in the State it will enable the people
more intelligently to discharge their duty
at the polls. This is the practice in some
Of the western States and ought TO be gen.
orally adopted.

TEN millions Of dollars, part OF tie
amount originally set apart for the redemp-
ton of fractional currency, still remains in
the treasury Of the United States. 1t is
apparent from this that Of the fractional
currency issued by the government, amount
ing, we believe, 20 about fifty millions, ten
millions have been lost and destroyed and
will never be presented for redemption. 4
bill will be passed by Congress directing
those ten millions in the treasury to be put
ia circulation in notes.of the denomination
Of one and two dollars.

GRANT did great many things that
lowered the dignity Of his office in order
that the Republican party might be kept in
power, but neither Grant nor any other
President ever permitted himself to say,
as Hayes said 20 General Campbell, that
he intended to contribute literally to the
Republican campaign fund, and hoped
that other office-hOliers would do the same
thing. 1t WIS a direct admission that
votes can be bought and elections carried
by the corrupt use Of money, After Hayes
was foisted into Office by the Electoral
Commission, be ISSUED his celebrated civil
service order forbidding Office holders from
personally interfering in political move
ments, and now, in his interview with
Congressman Campbell, he not only re-
scinds il ard releases his office-h holders
from it's operation, but deliberately avows
his intention Of assisting in the work OF
political corruption himself. After this
change Of front in reference to a matter
which he seemed to regard as the brightest
feather in his political cap, who can re-
pose any confidence in Mr.. Hayes sincerity
20 anything he does, or in anything nc
says?

SINGULAR PHYSICAL AILMENT. On

aged about twenty four years, citizen of
Port Royal, died of such painful Ailmeut
al point on the right side of his beIlv that
it was deemed proper to have an exanina-
tion Instituted after death. Drs. Graham.
Sterrett and Shelley rendered the examina-
ton. 1t appears that on the right side of
the bowels at point where the large in
iestines form the lower curve, there is a
projection. The projection has an opening
into 1t, bnt the opening is not deep. The
verdict of the doctors in substance is that
q lemon OF orange seed was diverted out of
the Intestines into the opening in the pro-
lection mentioned. aud that the seed Law

around it, much like the substance that is

1t is to be hoped that the Democrats viii
not lack the courage to expose and punish
the crime that the Republicans bad the
courage to commit. Mr.. Lock wood has
the distinction of being the first Democrat
i'll Congress to grapple with this momen-
tous subject. There is wide spread fear
that the peoples representatives in this
matter, in many others. act not from
their convictions Of right, but from motives
of political economy. 1t is much to be re-
GREETED that all our Democratic Represent
atlves and Senators have not the ability,

HAYES has at last yielded to the impor-
tuni;ies OF Packard aud given him an Office
10y sending his name to the Senate as United
States consul a. Liverpool. The people Of
New Orleans especially and Of Louisiana
generally will be satisfied to have this
nomination confirmed, for the reason that
the Atlantic will then intervene between
them and Packard, and his occupation with

married couple who came here to reside
from the eastern portion of Anglaize coun-
ty about ton months ago, aud have been

The child IS about two weeks old. The
parents were astounded to find on the right
side OF the face an eye and an ear in their
proper natural positions, and on the left
side of the face another eye in its natural
position and about an inch further round
on the left side of the head a third eve. all

TWICE during the present session Of the
Legislature have the aims and purposes of
the Democratic party been basely betrayed
in the Senate, aud on both occasions by
the same man. Owing to the recent death
OF Hon. ID. A. Mage, Democrat, of Philadel-
phia, that body now consists Of forty nine
members, OF whom thirty one are Repub-
licans, seventeen are Democrats, and one
calls himself an Independent Democrat.
His name is Torbert, and Schuylkill county
Is his home, where a man assumes to be an
independent Democrat for the purpose of
playing Republican whenever his services
are needed. THirty-H-ec is two thirds of
forty nine, and counting Torbert with the
Republicans, where he properly belongs,
they would still fall short one vote of the
necessary number required under the con-
stitutiOn 70 confirm an executive appoint
ment. After the passage of the Phiadel-
phia Recorders bill and Quay's nomination
to the place by Hartranft, the Democratic
members Of the Senate held a caucus and
resolved that they would refuse TO vote for
Quay's confirmation, and it was as plain as
the multiplication table that unless one
Democratic Senator could be seGuced, his
confirmation was impossible. Bussey, who
has been twice sent 20 the Senate by the
honest Democracy of York county, had al
ready paved his way for a second act of
treason by casting the deciding vote in
favor Of the other job Of the State ring, the
Bank Commissioners bill lie is one of
those men Of easy political virtue who are
as instinctively secuted out by man like
Bob Mackey as hound follows the trail of
a fox.
