The regulars are beginning to arrive at
Mount Gretna, and by Sunday morning
the militia will all be on the ground
and Camp Hartranft, as II has been
named, will number over ten thousand
men the largest body of troops i'm paid
service since the war. There will only
be about four hundred regulars, who are
expected to play the part of the leaven
and raise the military standard of the
whole state force. This camping of reg
ulars with the national guard has
proved very beneficial TO both, for the
latter have their eyes well opened to
their own imperfections, and the regu-
lars are put upon their metal to prove
their superiority ms professionals over
toy soldiers. The officers of the regular
army naturally try to present their com
mands in as fine "a condition and thor

petiti0a might he admitted to be close,
but in field evOlutions and work of this
summer camp the regulars are bound to
show the training of veterans and a
standard Of soldierly efficiency worthy
OF the emulation of the Pennsylvania
troops. The improvement of the state
artillery aud cavalry, after last years
camp ut Mount Gretna, was very
marked. This year all three arms of
the regular service will be well repre-
sented, the artillery having brand
new equipment complete from guns to
harness. Their guns will contrast
strongly with the old muzzle-loaders of
the state artillery, for they are breech-
leaders, built on the new system i'm use
in the French army, and proved supe-
rior to the Krupp guns. They weigh
eight hundred pounds and throw a

their evolutions will be worth travelling
far TO see. General Sheridan, not long
before his death, watched eight thousand
men manGuvring on the Mount Gretna
plateau, and declared II one Of the most
imposing military spectacles he had
ever witnessed. II must be remembered
that he was not only familiar with the
immense armies of our war but accom-
panied the German army In the inva-
sion of France.

II seems that the f,vorite native Wand of

ascendancy, those dishes which other folk
have always regarded as essentially Ger

Mn. BLAINE has written an open letter
to Senator Frye on the sugar features of

smooth phrases he danns the measure. II

Blaine, and most of its provisions are in
accordance with wise policy of protec-
tion, b,i; there IL not section or line of IL
that will open market for another bushel
of wheat or barrel pork This is equivalent
to saying that certain eggs are very good
eggs of their kind, but the kind is rotten.
The bill is wise and Just and protective.
How could Republican measure fail to be
SOP But not word or line of IL is of tho
least consequence to our staple export
trade. As matter of formal courtesy and
etiquette he praises the measure while his
whole argument is a fierce denunciation of
II. lie goes on to elaborate and reite rate
his argument that 1t would be folly to put
sugar on the free list when the tariff on IL
might be used to secure concessions for the
export of the products of our farms To
Spanish American countries.
A DISCUSSION in the House of the charges
of pension office corruption brought from
Mr.. Enloe, of Tennessee, the sharp criticism
that every other department bureau of the
government except tho pension bureau
was conducted on business principles
and was open to investigation about
that bureau there appeared to be something
sacred or something rotten, and in his
opinion the reason that the bureau had not
been investigated was because of the rot
tenncss which was known 10 be concealed"
The business of the pension bureau is of
kind that strongly tempts rascality and
the blame for corruption rests with the
congressman who have passed laws for the
distribution of pension money SO carelessly
worded and extrayagant that worthless
bummers, camp followers and pension
sharks profit by rewards intended for war

In tho last presidential campaigns and
although the American people did not, by
hundred thousand majority, agree with
him. the present Congress nevertheless
takes very kindly to the "ugly word"
This Is shown by the action of the Senate
on Saturday last in passing two separate
subsidy bills for the benefit of American
steamship companies. Neither of these
bills will create new steamship lines, or
increase existing facilities for transporta-
ton. Both of them are calculated to pay

Life saved by a Newspaper.

A few days ago Scotch collie dog
came into our town an entire stranger,
having no master nor friends, and as a
natural consequence the animal found
its way into the pound. As no claim
ant appeared, the marshal declared
she must die, fixing the day of execu-
ton on Tuesday. A few hours before
the execution was to take place The
Brownsville Times arrived, in which a
reward of 81 was offered by b. F.
Childs of Brownsville for the recovery
of dog whose description answered
exactly to the condemned cur in the
pound. Thus a valuable dog was
returned to its master, all because of
the timely arrival of a two-dollar
newspaper. Nations as well as dogs
have been saved by newspaper, but
you cannot make every mossback
believe it.
