The States National Guard.

Major Volkmar has submitted to the ad-
jutant general his report on the national
guard of Pennsylvania. He says that the
plan of encamping by separate regiments
is an improvement on the system of as
sembling all the state troops in one large
encampment
He bases this conclusion on the fact that
it throws the officers of the regiment upon
their own resources and so tends to give
them the self-reliant character that is soes-
sential to successful command; that the
"troops learn better how TO supply them
selves upon a service which they are more
frequently called upon to render their
state.''
On the other hand, a serious objection TO
encampng the guard by regiment near
home is the host of interested people who
thus find convenient opportunity for visit
ing their friends in regimental camps, the
presence of whom at times becomes an
inconvenience and almost an obstacle to
satisfactory performance of military duty
To remove this one objection, the major
suggests that encampments be selected at
oiotouSC mum idilNdS ov tidb IL W Ill
be difficult for visitors to reach them, and
the troops will gain practice in route march
ing when proceeding from the nearest sta.
tion to their camp.
He notes decided improvement in the
discipline and drill of the men, and in the
performance of guard duty, but says that
there should be improvement in the PIE
scrlbed courtesy to officers, and more uni
formity in the manner of carrying field
equipments and in camp arrangements.
The report condemns the wretched arms
and ammunition supplied the Guard, ant
the recommendations of the previous year
report on this point are renewed. "Inter
est in soldiers weapons" says Majo
Volksmar, cannot be very great, when h
knows that they are inferior, obsolete al,
almost absolutely worthless"
In time of danger the people look TO th
National Guard for aid and they shoul
Impress upon Congress the prime necessit
of arming their defenders with moder
weapons. Military experts all declare tina
many an important battle has been lost il
spite of skill, numbers and bravery, by in
ferior weapons. We are forewarned, let u
be forearmed,

LANCASTER. OCTOBER %, 1856.
The state Congressional Contests.


The congressional contests this year in
Pennsylvania are unusually disturbed and
both parties are having trouble in their
camps. A Democratic district or two is
imperilled by internal disorder, but fair
offset is obtained by dissensions in Republi-
can districts which seem TO be even more
virulent than in the Democratic families.
The Republicans have very hot family
fire kindled In the adjoining Chester Della
ware district, where Mr.. Darlington
cheated Congressman Everhart out of a re-
nomination he was entitled to expect. AS
the folk down that way are peculiar,
it is not surprising that there is some
very fine practice in their dealings, nor
that, when they get each other by the ear
they don't let 60 for while. Eyerhart
and Darlington are having just the sort of
quiet, wicked, stubborn fight, which might
have been predicted from the nature OF the
elements engaged in it. The party is pretty
well split betwixt them, so that the Demo
cratic candidate has fine chance of cleo
tion. We are sorry that it is not Bob
Monaghan who has it. But what could be
done with man who was so confoundedly
straight that he could not take Cleveland
because of his moral character
Monaghan was about the only Democrat
in Pennsylvania who was caught by this
Blaine campaign lly-paper. He is honest
and earnest and Democratic to the core,
and generally steers right but when he
steers wrong the stone walls in the way
need to look out.
The Republicans are having another
elegant time in the Meadville district
where one Dr. Roberts is their candidate
who seems to be about the worst man in
the state if all is true that the opposing Re
publican faction says of him. Norman
Hall, the Democratic candidate, is
likely to 60 to Congress from this district,
so that there will be one Hall in the Penn
sylvania delegation, if the one in the Clear
field district is beaten, as 1t is quite posi-.
BILE he may be.
If the Democratic state executive com.
mittee succeed in Strengthening out thing:
in the Fayette seat SO as to assure th,
election of Democrat, our party is likely
to suffer good deal less than the Repubi
cans from broils in the districts.

Give II q Trial.

Figures do not lie, and the figures that
are elsewhere presented show the vast
saving that would result TO this county If
two courts of quarter sessions were run at
the same time.
1t is shown that there would be net
saving to the county treasury of s5,iT2.76
per annum, exclusive of minor expenses,
that would be very materially curtailed.
Let the taxpayers study the figures given.
They point to but one conclusion. Two
criminal courts running simultaneously
are necessity as well as great economy.
Give the plan trial.

Should be Suppressed.

The car of Russia may reasonably be
supposed to have fallen under the Roman
on curse, and to have lost control of his
reason, as he has evidently lost control of
himself. They say he shot OF sabred his
aid-de-eamp through apprehension that he
was going to be shot by him which was a
fear with so little foundation as TO show
the lack of reason, as well as courage of
the man who held it. But we are not likely
to get the truth of the story about the
matter, and it is quite probable that the
hallucination Of the ear was not a momen
tary one, but was due to his unsettled rea.
son. The conduct Of Russia in the Bul
Z .rian matter has been such as to create

THERE are so many rumOrs aiOat with
regard TO the combinations of European dip.
lomats that it would be easy to lind iounds-
tion for almost any prophecy of the future OF
Turkey, Russia and England, in the next
few years. The latest story is that France
with Russia and Turkey at her back, has
protested against the English occupation OF
Egypt. The evident weak ness of the latter
power, while the feeling on home rule and
many other questions is so bitter, otfers
strong temptation to her ancient enemy
across the channel, and it would be strange
indeed if she did not make some move TO
test the temper OF John Bull. Egypt would

the feeling that IL was prompted by a mad
man. The hatred of Prince Alexander which
inspired the car. created a fair suspicion
that his head was wrong, aud his wholly
unreasonable and arbitrary conduct in all
the events since has confirmed it. He
should be suppressed in the interest OF the
public welfare.

This question admits OF no manner OF doubt

this. The casting OF a ballot was Just as
much the expression Cf an opinion as
would be advocacy of 1t 10y word of mouth,
and one was as niue h an iuslieuable right as
the other. When he entered tue cabinet he
did not surrender his rights As a citizen, and
had always expressed his political views
