SERVED THEM RIGHT,

DOllH % NlOllpIi, s''h' w
samuel p. HUM, stand up"
Such were the words pronounced a few
days ago, with chilling deliberation and
impressive solemnity by Judge Thayer, of
the criminal court of Philadelphia. The
first named individual had been president,
and the cashier of the Philadelphia passcn
ger railway;an as such they had been con
victed of issuing fraudulent stock to the
amount of 100000, and appropriating the
proceeds to their own use.
Adjusting his eyeglasses, and clearing
his throat, Judge Thayer addressed the
prisoners substantially as follows:
John s. Morton and Samuel p. HUM,
you have confessed yourselves guilty of the
making and issuing OF 10000 shares Of
West Philadelphia Passenger Railway stock,
which at the market value of the stock
amounted to $5oO,O0O The olfense is one
of the mos. fragrant of its kind ever com
mittcd in this Commonwealth You were
the chosen guardians and trustees Of the
stockholders Of the corporation, to whom
they confded their interests, and in an hour
of temptation you betrayed that confidence
ana wrought widespread ruin on those who
had trustee! you. 1t is necessary that
should say this much that it may be borne
in mind that. if the punishment which the
law imposes be great, it may also be rcmcm:
bcred that the crime itself is great.
"For the offcnsc which you have been
convicted it is the sentence of the court that
you, and each of you, do undergo an inn
prisonment in the Eastern Pcnt,ntiary for
the period OF ten years. that you pay fine
of one cent to the Commonwealth, and that
you stand committed until the sentence is
complied with"
And thus, at least has justice overtakcn
this brace of scoundrels. From their mag
nificlnt homes, built and maintained with
stolen money; from their luxurious church
pews, paid tor with stolen money; from
the high social positions they had reached.
MeSsrs Morton and HUM are snatched
away by the hand of stern justice, to be
immurcd within the walls of gloomy
prison for ten long and cherries years,
They prepared their own beds, however.

William Cullen Bryant, Benjamin Wade,
Gideon Welles, and Bayard Taylor. 1t gave
US the phonograph and the electric light,
and thousand inventions of less signitl
canoe, but of great practical utility to civ
ilized mankind. Last but not least, 1t
witnessed complete quiet, good order and
good will among the people of the South
through the agency of honest Democratic
rule, and the removal of the last vcstigc OF
that curse of the age, carpct-baglsm.
Through the strain of vicious legislation,
unheard of and unparalleled extravaganza
in public expenditures, and most unbiush-
ing political vilainy in her high places, it
has seen the government move forward,
gathering fresh vitality from the mere
promise that it would soon pass under the
benign control IF the Democratic party.
These are few of the happenings OF 1878
that signaIizc the year as one that will not
be easily forgotten.

can prohibit citizens Of Illinois from buy
the prison products Of Indiana, Wisconsin,
Iowa and Missouri; nor is 1t urged that
legal prohibition shall be raised up against
receiving supplies into Illinois from such
sourcers under special contract Not at all
The whole movement seems especially
directed against the prison labor of Illinois.
We confess that we have given the matter
but little thought, but the surface indica'
tons do not impress us very favorably. If
Illinois cOnvicts are not permitted to pur-
sue any trade or avocation that is pursued
by the outside mechanic Or laborcr then
they must be maintained in idleness at an
expense to the taxpayers Of the state of
$500 900 or 100000 per annum. ii the
competition that free labor finds in the
prisons of Chester and Joliet, is destroyed,
will not the prisons of Jefferson City, Mo,
Madison, Wis, Lansing, Mich, and Dcs
Moines, Iowa, supply Il competition scarcely
less formidable! Would we not, by strik-
ing down the conyictlabor competition in
Illinois, open a wider field and better
market for the products or the same kind
of labor in the border stitcs' From The
standpoint of mere "casua! observer
such result looks extremely probable. If
then the success of the movement would
saddle an additions, expense OF 100000
or 100000 a year upon our taxpayers, and
subjects us to the liability of competition
to outside convict abor, would the end
achieved justify, in ny particular, the sac
rifces made in its achievement! 1t might;
but we confess thatwe are unable to sec it.
There might be wholesome restrictions
thrown around cnvict labor; but the

WE see il stated that the yellow fever is
raging on the island Of ST. Thomas, even at
the present time, with considerable fury.
From this fact one Of our contemporaries
argues that tho disease will be imported
into the United States again as soon rs at
mosphciic conditions render its importation
possible. We do not share in this apyre.
hension, because. in the first place, we don't
believe there is any yellow fever in St.
Thomas. Secondly, if the fever be there,
before the conditions are rendered fayora-
bic again, we shall have national and in
terstate system Of quarantine that will pro-
tcct the country from that and al other
foreign cpidemicsi and thirdly, we believe
that the experience Of last year will enforce
the adoption and enforcement Of health
laws throughout the Mississippi valley, that
will leave no lurking place tor the disease,
even should atmospheric conditions invite il.

The ORIGIN OF DIXIE Some years
ago, long before the war. o very musical
family by the name OF Dixie lived in
Worcester, Mass. One OF the brothers,
Walston Dixie. we believe. decided to
apply his Talents in the negro ministrelsy
line. and soon the famous Dixie Min.
strels were known from one end Of the
country to the other. This same founder
Of tho troupe wrote the celebrated song
"Dixie's Land" which attained such
grand popularity twas verify the land
for him, as he found in the Southern
States the germs of the quaint negro
songs, which he brushed up and placed
IN his programme. The South adopted
the song, and hence allowed this gifted
minstrel of Massachusetts to give that
section of the country now name, which
will always stick. Many songs were ad-
opted and ssctionalized in this way. Our
own Yankee Doodle" was written by
an Englishmau as satire, but our an.
cestors picked it right up and gave il q

WILL SHAKEsPRARE, at the age OF elgh-
teen years, is the lover oil
ANNE HATHAWAY, a farmers DAUGHTER,
without mental culture, without the ca
paclty to understand mental culture,
and eight years the senior OF her boy
lover. Let US imagine the author OF
Romeo and J,,liet, of AntOny and Cleopatra,
signing out his impassiOned soul at the
feet of his mistress What woman could
have resisted him? ANNE HATHAWAY
did not; and in December, 1852, they
were married"
In thisacase the marriage may have
been an unfortunate one, in so far as It's
purpose Of comforting happiness on the
two parties most Immediately interested,
is considered; but 10 the world-lt 1t
alienated the poet from domestic ties,
and thus forced his thoughts to
find i'm literature, his most congenial
mistress, and drove him perforce, into
the position best calculated to develop
his genius-this ill-sOrted union may
have been the reverse OF unfortunate.
Often the tempest that wrecks indlvld-
ual happiness coniers upon the world
incalculable benefits, and it is possible
that this was so with Shakespeare in his
hasty, improyldent marriage. His wife
had grace of person, but her mind had
not the grace to comprehend her poet
husband.
Anne Hathaway should have married
ploughman, and Shakespeare should
have marrieI-well, he should not have
married, probably
Mr.. Leighton has shown his
high appreciation and genuine
love for the works OF SHAEEsPzARE by
the very able and clearly expressed
analysis of the many-sided genius which
produced them.
"SHAKEsPEARE's genius" says the
author, combines in one grasp the sew
eral powers OF the artist, the phlloso-
pher, and the poet.
.'As an artist, he knew how to define
ate each character so that its effect upon
surrounding characters, and in the play,
should be in perfect accord, and also IN
harmony with nature. He knew how
TO contrast character with character so
that their contact might render more
apparent the peculiar excellence OF
each, as the painter makes his tints
more brilliant and effective by skillful
regard to complimentary colors. lie
knew how to so group and present his
characters and scenes To produce the
strongest dramatic effects. He knew
how to invest every character with a pc
culiar grace that should lend its charm
to beautily even the commonplace.
His philosophy is broad and COM
preheusive, but generous and kind. 1t
looks through the shams OF the world
with pity for folly and weakness, but
ever with a lash for vice. 1t fathoms
the heart of the monarch, the mind OF
the slave, and the intricate brain OF the
intellectual schemer and man OF medi-
tative thought No degree OF mental
power is beyond It's measure; no lack
of intellect below It's comprehension
We have quoted sufficient to iniicate
tie style and tenor OF the sketch, and
10 show that even when Mr.. LEIGHTON
drops the rhyme and writes prose he is
not prosy. His work has evidently been
labor of love, and will be read with
none the less relish for the character
istic and well sustained enthusiasm
that runs through this, as well as all OF
the authors productions.

A GREAT enterprise has come to grief
i'm the failure Of the negotiations for the
sale of the James River and kanawha
Canal to the Allegheny Railroad Compa-
nv. and Virginia must wait awhile long
or iot better transportation facilities 10
the Ohio and the development OF the
Valley Of the James. The deed OF con-
vevance was rendered TO the canal com
pany on SATURDAY., according to the pro-
visions of an act of the Assembly passed
with much didioulty last VintSr, but tho
railroad company was not prepared for
deposit OF 100000, rs required, and
here the matter rests. The Richmond
and Allegheny Railroad Company is an
embryo concern, under the management
of Northern capitalists, including Sena-
tor JOKES, OF Nevada, General EWING,
Of Ohio, and others, and the canal
scheme was entered into by them few
months ago on recommendation OF SEN
atur BLAINE.
