A DISTINGUISHED author on national
ethics said: "The greatest dangers
are not always the most apparent but
few observers can doubt that the grav-
est danger now threatening us, as a
nation, is the supplanting of our cher
isEed theory of government of, by,and
tor the people, by new system, name
ly, government of, by. and for party.
In fact, party has already usurped the
throne, and the dictate of a spurious
party morality are loudly proclaimed
as the doctrines of national ethics "
This is strictly applicable to the Re-
publican party under the rule of its
oligarchy of radicals. They have been
in power SO long that they begin to
think that the Government belongs to
them as a matter of exclusive right -
The theory that the Government origi-
mated from the people. was made by
them, and for them, has been perverted
and according to the ethics of this par
ty the Government is from and by
and for this political party. When
the question of any public measures
arises with the highest officials of this
party, the inquiry made is not, is it re-
quired by the welfare and safety of the
country aud authorized by the Consti
tuition, but the chief inquiry made is,
will it advance the interests of the Re-
publican party or tend to secure its
suceess9 If it will do this, then it is

Constitutional Amendment.

Voters at next Tuesdays election
will have to vote on the constitutional
amendment proposed at the last session
of the Legislature. Under the Consti-
tuition as it now stands, the terms of
the judges elected i'll 1867 expire in
1882. In that year there is no general
election, and if the constitution is not
amended, there can be no election in
1883 To prevent this embarrassment
constitutional amendment has been
proposed, which, if adopted, will ena-
BILE people TO elect judges at the Con
gressional election in 1883. Those
favoring the change will vote " for
the constitutional amendment" and
those opposed" against the constitu-
tional amendment" There is little
doubt that the Amendment will
pass, as all will see the necessity of it,
to remedy an oversight of the constitu-
tional convention of 1867. The tickets
of both parties will be printed with the
quoted words on them.

A SOUVENIR of the Electrical Expo
sition in Paris has been brought to this
country by the Hon. Strickland Kneass
of the Pennsylvania railroad, who has
jealously guarded it since his return
from his European tour. 1t is a life
like drawing of the shoulders, head,
face, and mouth of an officer of the
French Grenadier Guards, which was
transmitted a considerable distance by
electricity. The drawing is about 6
inches long by 8 wide, on ordinary
white paper, and the method of exc
cutting this remarkable feat was in this
wise The original sketch was made
by hand in the form Of dots, metallic
ink being used. The sheet was then
placed on a table directly under the
pointer of an ordinary telegraph wire.
This pointer was moved rapidly to and
fro over the drawing, receiver at the
other end being worked in precisely
the same way. Each time that the
pointer came in contact with the me-
tallic ink dots the circuit was closed,
and a corresponding impression made
upon piece of paper at the other end
of the line. This process was contin-
ued until every dot had been carried
over the wires. and the transmission
was so perfect that without distn-
gushing mark the person who made
the original drawing could not have
told one from the other. The words
Parteouneaux First Bridadier &c
Paris" were also transmitted in fac
simile. During the sessions of the
congress letters were written and
transmitted by electricity, and sigma
lures to checks and notes OF hand are
now being forwarded hundreds of
miles in the same manner in the sister
republic.-Phila Record.
