history or the nihni po tent unit when the other day the leg islature discovered that an appropria tion of 26,000 to bay or repair a boat he harbor mastu had by i little involuntary evolution of the tpyes made the item read fl2o,000 typographical error oh for the perversity of things inanimatel 1600 will buy a good boat but the appropriation bill brings jo light also new institatloni,unneard of before about as obscure as the boat bill or the boat itself 125,000 were given to the garfetaon hospital linallv located by the keen svent of a philadelphia re porter to be at eighteenth and uiitten wood streets philadelphia them was h watchman there when the discovery whp made but no resident physician or anv specimen nf buffering humanity it must be a successful hospital to cure all the applicants as fast as they come anil send them home wholeand purified it averts all pestilence suffering and bad dreams or dreamless nights the magnificent speech of william scott president of the pennsylvania liar association at liedford mi inetdav the 25th inst is so full of sound states manship and common sense that it reads like a sermon to sinners especially his remarks on the usurpations of legisla tive craft the ledger of philadelphia gave it to us on wednesday but it was conspicuously absent from the times and inquirer in the latter we did not expert to find it but it should have been in all the newspapers of the me tropolis of the state there is one dis tinction by which a great newspaper may always be known it will give all the news and will not be afraid to pub lish the utterances of great men whether they be agreeable to the editor or di rectly opposite to his views its sub stance is news no man must buy his honor with his conscience of course j^there are the brutes that wear our form and face the were wolves of the human race — that utter slander or pub lic scandal but i am not reckoning of them i listened to ilowell cobb with great pleasure and profit when in was tho orator of a great democratic meet ing in norristown though i am oppos ed to all the tenets of his platform there was something to learn from sur.h a man the nf york sun showed its as cendency over the low level of the po litical palaver of the times when it daied the day after the lection to all the <+! e rf'pnblfesn journals claim ed the lat rv election this was truth magnanimity and no the blindness or blatanty of narrow partisanship the sun gained a reputation for absolute ac curacy in its news department while it maintained its integrity and fidelity to its party and matchless leader i do not claim to be in the category of the great but humble as 1 am i churn the right to tell the judge or the legis lator or the governor when i think he is in error and will endeavor to forti fy my position bv reason und authority a subject much discussed now by the smart set in the profession is whether or not judges should wear gowns bar associations take action no doubt often at the suggestion of judges who would distinguish them selves by their clothes but it seems to me that judges should have heud and hearts and men whose forms robed or unrobed do all the impress wear of one divine and wliose lustre should out shine all the silks manufactured since the time of aristotle where the rich fabrics were woven on the island of cos the justices of our supreme court have never appeared bo much like men of significance dignity authority and power as they did under the old regime now thev look like monks or monsters seeking to cover some deformity under cover of a superabundant gown think > of gibson black woodward nhars wood lowrie lteed agnew and mer cer wrapt in black overdress and scarcely ijible to move without tripping or stumbling into their places toe world turns with horror from the aspect of the judges as they now appear upon the bench in that long dark solemn row of black as if hung all over in mourning for their great predecessors if the gowns are worn in sorrow for departed greatness it is well hon henry hall of allegheny gave the house at llamsburg some lessons in history which the people will not forget about the increase of judges one pregnant sentence lie uttered was : there are in pennsylvania more judg es than there are in kngland ireland and scotland with their 38,000,000 m\t ulation this i something to think about ii clay

at the suggestion of philadel pnla lawyers is all well enough but our common law und statutes hitherto in force had settled the law of negoti able paper i do not like new statutory aw on id and settled practise for the statute is like a tyrant when he comes lie makes all void but the com ii law is like a parent makes void only that part where the fault is and preserves the rest 2 miles tio the law of protest has been settled ever since nixon vs long i i dallas li and the judges who rendered the decision were nol learned in the law or admitted to the bar it is adopted as common sense a singular ease occurred hex last we'ek a man was arrested lor viola tion of the english language the lan guage of the country he had a two horse wagon and was hauling cakes for sale on the side of the wagon was painted a senl and in the scroll were printed i n e r s e a l he was asked to explain lie said it was inner seal — the seal was inside and the finding of the seal was proof that the cakes were the genuine article he was informed that he was now in an educat ed community which required corn form it y to the laws of the language i stands for the pronoun invseif and ner for nearer but if he in tends the inscription for inner he must spell it inner and not iner he was simply reprimanded for contempt of the common school system and dismiss ed with the admonition to get some school boy to write for his artist before he starts out again to visit norristown with a painted wagon i gained a case for ivratz of franconia who liled ex ceptions that no notice was given according to law a it

for district-attorney is an ' outburst of feeling engendered by the domineer ing political powers there was no other way open just now for the ex pression of public sentiment than just this one there must be u voice wl;en there is a grievance the reading strikers argument sent to george f bear esq now presi dent of the reading railway system is very convincing and mr bear has made the same mistake that poor frank iowen made when he surrendered up a lucrative and congenial profession to be come the standard bearer of a vast cor poration so much involved in grave res ponsibilities of its own it
