The use OF money by candidates for ''election
expenses has grown to be recognized custom
In this country, but it does not prevail to such
an extent as in England. candidate for
seat in Parliament is expected to disburse thou
sands of dollars, and unless he meets this eX-
pectation he finds himself sadly in the minority
when the votes are counted. At a recent cleo
ton In Durham each Of four candidates spent
to obtain votes $4,000. In another borough an
aspirant for a seat in Parliament spent sos 900
ana was defeated in spite of this outlay. An
official investigation developed the fact that In
the year 1874 in England over s., OOO0 900 were ex-
pended upon voters by candidates. A member
of the present Congress remarked, a day or two
ago, when asked why he did not bring his fam
lily with him to Washington: 81 can't afford it.
1t cost me nearly $4,000 to obtain my nominal
ton and election, and, as borrowed most of
the money, am saving all / can in order to pay
1t back" At this rate 1t will not be many years
until the English figures Of election expenses
are reached In this country.

WICKED AND INSANE.

When Democratic henchmau in
n moment of thruthfullness induced
by over.indulgence in the great aid
to Democracy, expresses his real
sentiments concerning the assassina-
ten Of Lincoln, or SHOW the feeling
he has for the flag and the Nation by
cursing both in an idiotic manner
but with earnest voice, the Demo-
cratic journals term it wicked and
insane. 1t is wicked and insane
from Democratic point Of view not
because an unreconstructed rebel
holds to the reasonable sentiments of
former years, but because he Injuries
the Democratic party by openly stat
ing his opinions. 1t is both wicked
and insane from Democratic point
Of view to acknowledge the truth
prematurely. .s
AT present it Is the policy of Dem
ocrats to make pretense of intense
love for the Union and those who
aided in its preservation. While
there is danger that their opinions
and intentions, if freely outspoken,
might alarm the patriotism of the
country and prevent their accession
to power, all rejoicing over the as
sassination of Lincoln or regret for
the lost cause will he disowned by
the leaders of the party; but once
allow them to get control Of the gov
ernment and the people will see that
those who will most strongly rec
1mmend themselves to the favor of
the party will be those who avow
the most uncomproulising hatred of
the Union, and who are most eager
to nullify all the results of the war.

moved that the Hon. Joel Parker, Of
New Jersey, Democratic candidate for
the Presidential nomination be adj
mitted to the bar of the Court. Mrs.
Belva Lockwood, who was admitted to
practice before that Court by special
net of Congress, rose immediate y, and
in sbrill piping voice, moved the
admission Of n lawyer from South
Carolina, who she testified upon honor
possessed the necessary qualifications
for practice before the Supreme Court
Of the United States The lawyer
whose admission she moved rose and
proved To be n negro.
Joel Parker, the Democratic candi-
date for President, and the negro then
stepped forward TO the clerks desk,
placed their hands upon the same
Bible and were sworn in together,
standing very near to the niche where

MUcH of our space is again given
this week 10 what the Republican
journals of the State say as to the
right of the Congressional districts to
choose and instruct their own dele
gates to National Convention. The
doctrine Of the ''unit rule" is very gen
orally denounced as gross tyranny and
one usurping the rights of the people.
In political sense no greater or
qraver question could be engaging
the Republican party. The old prin-
ciple of our forefathers of mo taxation
without representation" was not more
vital to them as principle Of Govern
ment, than is this one to the Republi-
can party in this State to-day. Other
States do not think of enforcing such
an anti-republican rule.

Twenty yoars ago, Hon. John
Cessna was Democrat, aud under his
lead the Democratic State Convention
Of that year declared emphaticaIly in
favor Of District appointment Of dele
gates to the National Convention. At
the late Republican Convention in
Harrisburg this right, on motion Of
Mr.. G. was taken away from some of
the Districts, and attempted TO be
lodged in q Committee Of Nine. Of
which no was made chairman. II
Mr.. G. could do no better for tho
party TO which be now processes al

Unable and mischievous device for rob-
bing the people Of one Of their most
vital prerogatives, then the best that

"As THE gentlemen chosen for Chi
cago have over three months TO as
certain their duty we will not discuss
the situation now"
The above appears in the Eagte OF
this place last week. and as its editor,
Thomas Robinson, is one of ''the gen.
tlemen" who has wormed himself in as
delegate from this district to the
Chicago Convention, to nominate a
a candidate for President, we call the
particular attention Of Republicans to
it. "Over three months" he says,
"to ascertain their duty" How is
that y We thought our County Com
mittee had instructed him for Blaine.
How then will it take him three
months to ascertain his duty" And
what considerations will enter into
this ascertainment? VIII it be money,
or more Office, or WHAT What has
he 70 ascertain ~ The instructions
have been already given him. The
Republicans OF this county are for
Blaine for President and have told
him so. But it looks as if be was a
doubling Thomas on the subject, and
If be has any doubts he should imme-
diately cause them TO be known, as the
party in this county do not intend TO
be sold. assigned or betrayed on this
Presidential question at Chicago.
He also attempts some defence Of
but admits that our delegates to the
late State Convention, at Harrisburg,
voted for Mr. Errett, a friend Of Gen.
Grant, against Mr. Lawrence, known
and prominent friend Of Mr.. Blaine,
for the Craftsmanship Of the Caucus
and the Convention. Now, as we
have before said, our delegates, Messrs.
Greer, Fielder and Mckee, in 30 do
ing did not fully and honorably obey
their instructions to use "all honorable
means" TO promote the interest of Mr.
Blaine in the State Convention
What was almost the first act Mr.
Errett done as Chairman 1t was TO
appoint committee on contested seats,
that made quick work in throwing out
Of the Convention all the Blaine contest
ants. Then, he had the appointing Of
all other Committees, among them that
on the attempted selection Of district
delegates to Chicago, and the result
was declaration in favor Of Grant
by the Convention itself, whereas, as
has been admitted, majority Of the
Convention was really and truly for
Blaine, as fully as the Republicans Of
the State were then and are now.
But when we consider how our dele
gates elected themselves, in Com
mittee Of which MI four Of them were
members, and which was "set up"
and to q certain extent improperly
packed, and that, too, over the heads
and names Of old citizens and compe-
tent men, then IL IL not hard to see
that some crookedness was intended at
the time. For our part we predicted it,
and forewarned all we could, and the
doings at Harrisburg confirmed it.
In some Of these remarks perhaps
Judge Fielder should not he included.

collected upon hundreds Of articles Of
