OUR readers will be much interested in the provisions ®f Senator HUOHBS' "om« nibua" educational bill, elsewhere published. We apprehend the measure will give general satisfaction In this part of the State, provided the proposed appropriation for the Normal School building is increased to $100,000. This sum is imperatively needed, and the best of reasons have been shown to every member of the

Legislature why the amount asked for should be appropriated. The people of Indiana are not niggardly towards our educational and benevolent institutions, and they will not complain of reasonable taxation for their support. We hope the amendment suggested will be promptly adopted.

A RKCEJTT debate in the United States Senate upon the provision of the Appropriation bill for the maintenance of mixed courts, brought out, in very clear light, one of the innumerable and grave evils connected with our abominable system of rotation in government offices, a system which displaces officers having knowl

Sational Capitol Building." There being, in fact, no crypt, and the office of Superintendent being a perfect sinecure, for sixty-eight years this useless office has been maintained, and the superintendency of the Crypt was one of these quiet little things which tho.incumbent kept to himself, and which, by favor, possibly became hereditary. ......

Since 1862 the appropriations to the Judges of the Mixed Commission Courts have been regularly made, and in that time not less than (84,000 have been paid to tbe persons who were so fortunate as to socure this "fat take." Io all this time these leeches have done nothing but draw their pay with exemplary regularity, nor will there bo anything more for them to do if the dishonest arrangement is continued for half a century to come, or till that more remote time, of which enthusiasts dream, when "human progress" shall give us bp£g34i»eg in frhe National Legislature.

And yet, CHARLES

SUMNER—of

whoi

the country had reason to expect better things—had the audacity to insist that any one who could censure such a palpable wrong and monstrous extravagance, must be a friend to the perpetuation of slavery Such an argument is beneath the dignity of a Senator and has nothing to sustain it but unreasoning prejudice. '3'

This affair has shown—that of which every thinking person has long been convinced—the necessity of arranging the civil service in some better manner than is at present adopted. Mr. JENCKES' bill will furnish the proper remedy for all such abuses, by making tbe system of office orderly, and compelling it to be carried on according to regulation. Under the presnt system—or rather in the prosent absence of system, common sense and ordinary business capacity—a law is passed creating anew office, the necessity for which soon passes away, as in the case of the Judges above mentioned, but the office remains, and year after year, while the occupant neither has nor expects to have a possible chance of doing the public a servioe, the overburdened people maintain him in idleness.

There is not a business man in the United btatos, however largo his capital, who could keep out of insolvency for two years shonld he conduct his business with as little application of intelligence and commercial principles as characterizes the Civil Service of our government.

A SCOTCHMAN went to a lawyer once for advice, and detailed the circumstance of the case. "Have you told me the facts precisely as they occurred?" said the law* yer. "Oh, ay, sir,' rejoined he, "I thought it best to tell ye the plain truth ye can put the lies in yourself." I

Thus it happens that we find that every appropriation bill pasted at Washington during the present century, if not from a moro remote period, has contained an appropriation to the "Superintendent of the Crypt in the

THE Cincinati Chronicle thinks Soros is is too sanguine. All the world is not giving absorbed attention to the question of lemale suffrage. Of men, there may be one in a thousand who has seriously thought it worth considering whether women should vote, but among women one in a thousand has not been found.

THE New York Post stales that leath ern cockades are now freequently seen on the hats of coachmen and footmen in that city. It sajs that, in England, these

man mean in New York? It weans an insufferable and abominable fool in the coach.

A SooTdfl engineer %as discovered method of producing intense light with common coal gas, by mixing it with at mospheric air. By his plan the mixture of gases is lighted after passing through a tissue of irridio platina wires the metal soon becomes boated, the -flame disappears, and a vivid white light is the result. It will burn in a gale of wind with out protection,and rain will not quench it.

THE New York Tribune speaks of "Mr, Wm. Cullen Bryant" as reading a paper on Fitz-Green Halleck. It is a wonder it did not say Mr. ivitz-Green Halleck. The Tribune has a high-mighty way of condescending, you know, to put this re spectable handle to deserving men's names. It does it in the kindly spirit of wishing to encourage mankind outside of the Tribune Company, and of making them feel that, if they act well their part in the world, they may always count on

people. Doubtloss Bryant" cut out the Tribune's flattering notice, and pasted it, with a thrill of exultation, in his scrapbook.

THEsuit for breach of promise ot marriage now going on in a New Jersey Court is even more disgusting find dis creditable than such suits usually are. A ripe widow over forty seeks to compel an old man over eighty to fulfill the promise which she claims he made le marry her. The evidence makes it pretty certain that if he ever made such a promise he was inveigled into it, and did not know what was doing—but it :a more probable 'that he never made it at all. The usual claim of blighted affections, &<?., made in such cases becomes very absurd io this, when the age of the parties is considered, and it takes a stjll stranger shape when it is remembored that the old man sought to be made the victim is enormously rich.

SOME time ago, says the New Tork correspondent of the Cincinnati Times, Balph Waldo Emerson was offered pay ment by his publishers in Boston, for an article he had already printed in the At lantic. He declined to receive it at first because he had once had money for writing it. "But," said OsgooJ, of the firm of Field, Osgood

& do.,

"we intend to use

the article for a book. "We make a profit on both. Why should you hesitate to take pay?" "I am sure I ought not to take it," replied the philosopher "I should not if I acted according to my ideal. I don't believe it is honest to take money twice for the same piece of work." "Do, Mr. Emerson I We insist upon it as our right." "Well, then, give it to me. We cannot live in obedience to the true poles of our being. I vary from my ideal self, but I have no disposition to play tbe evangelical peacock here." So delivering himself he tookathe proffered check and departed.

A Remarkable Wire and a Unlqne Preface. From the New Yoik 8un.]

EVERY

one remembers the story of ihe

thrown out of tbe second floor window, and the paper resumed its old course. Capt. Burton, the celebrated African traveller, is in the first stages of a some what similar experience. He has sent his wife home to England, and given her his last work, on Brazil, to publish for him. Having the matter in hor own hands, and her husband at the safe distance of Some five thousand miles, she concludes to write a preface to the book, warning the reader against certain of ita teachings and "pointing the finger of indignation" at ethers. The preface IB in its way as cool a bit of literature and do* mestic impudence as one may find in a first-class library, though he should read every book in it. It fully deserves quotation:

Before the rlader dives into tbe interior of Brazil with my husband as a medium, let me address two words to him. "I have returned home, on six months' leave of absence, after three years in Brazill. One of the many commissions I am to execute for Capt. Burton is to see the following pages through the press.

It is therefore timefor Jjae. respectfully but firmly to assert that, al-' though I proudly accept of the trust con* Med to msirf pledge myaelf not to avail myself of my discretionary powen to alter' one word of the original text, I protest vehemently against his religions, and moral sentiments, which belie a good and chivalrous life. I point the finger of indignation particularly at what misrepresents our Holy Roman Catholic Church, and at what upholds that unnatural and repulsive law, Polygamy, which the author is careful not to practise himself, but From a high moral pedestal he preaches to the ignorant as a means of population in young countries. "I am compelled to differ with him on many other subjects but, be it understood, not in the common spirit of domestic jar, but with a mutual agreement to differ and enjoy «ur differenees, whence points of interest never flag. "Having now justified myself and given a friendly warning to a fair or gentle reader—the rest must take care of them selves—I leave him or her to steer through theie anthropological sandbanks and hidden rocks best he or she may"

What the result will be when the African explorer, with "Oriental ways'* and ideas on the woman quntion, returns to England, quite appals the Imagination to think of. That there will be a few moments of unusual animation in the Burton family we may well believe. What precise form the scrimmage may assume it impossible to say. Being of an Oriental turn of mind, the Captain may at once bowstring Mrs. B., and drop her off Watorloo bridge into the Thames.— When this is fairly done, there will probably be a second edition of the work without preface. We should strongly advise Mrs. Burton to receive the first

greeting of her redoubtable lord and master surrounded by a strong cordon of well disciplined police.

I Mr. Broomall on the Pressr from t.e New York Tribune.] Mr. Lowell tells us that "God sends country lawyers and other wise fellows to drive the world's team when it gets in a slough." One of these country lawyers represents the Chester district in Penn* sylvania, and has lately distinguished himself by what a newspaper reporter calls "a sweeping denunciation 'of tsarrespondents in general," saying "he believed they manufactured suoh statements for the purpose of blackmailing, and, for his part, he woujd'nt believe any correspondent in Washington under oath. He thought that any correspondent who re mained in Washington fop even two weeks got thoroughly corrupted and un worthy of credit." The author of tills statement is the Hon. John M. Broomall, of Pennsylvania. After a reply had been made to Mr. Broomall by Mr. Getz of Beading, he still further said, "that he didn't bejieie In he„yjr«ie,ofahy of the correspondents of this wicked capital,

and while he did not object to them

never attempt to praise^Mm. To obtain their praises would give the public ground to suspect bis own honesty."

We do not presume tbpt the human virtues are monopolized by Washington correspondents any more than by the members of any otlter profession. We have seen many things in the conduct of some of these gentlemen to deplore. Occasionally we have felt that the profession was degraded by their conduct. If the story told of Mr. Painter is true, we think he deserves the severest censure but men have done the Press good service in Washington. Gentlemen are there now, and have been there, who have as much ability, as much honesty, and as many claims to public esteem, as the Hon. John M. Broomall. A bad correspondent surely does harm. A lie will travel with seven-loagued boots, but we have yet to bear of its ever seriously hurting anybody. In no profession is the distinction between bad men ani good men so promptly and severely drawn as in the Press. There are some black sheep but everybody knows who they are. They have no character They represent no great newspaper. They hare the confidence of no popular constituency, and they no more represent correspon dents of the Press than the "shysters' around the Tombs do the New Tork Bar.

The Washington correspondent occupies a position of great power. Mr. OoL fax, in his speech at their dinner the oth er evening, solemnly warned ibem, we are told, of their responsibility, and advised them to exercise it prudently. He reminded them that they had in their hands the making and unmaking of the reputation of "great men." We have generally found that the correspondents who are most unpopular with Congress men are the men who do not assist "making" these "reputations.' A reporter, for instance, who will tell the constituents of Mr. Broomall every other morn ing that he made a thrilling and masterly speech that the stenographers were dissolved in tears as they took down his pathetic sentences will be honored by him and by those of his class, as an ornament to his profession, tt is very hard to resist these temptations. It is not in human nature to say "No" when a grave Con gressman, representing mighty oonstitu encies, comes Into the noiSce correspondent and .begs him to say four lines to his people, recording his. eloquence and virtue. The request make% very'much the impression upon thesk writing gentle* men that a beggar dooB, who stands with his hat at.the door and asks for sixpences The beggsrj hoover* show* p:i(?a coarte-

Before tbe steamer on which

the editor had sailed was hull down, PHCEHIX bad changed the politics of the paper, varied its sober dignity with profuse wood-cuts, and so altered it generally that the oldest subscriber did not know it for the same journal. When the proprietor returned there was a silent but terrible "set to" in the offico

or, ''May you have peacaMn the land many days." But the:Qooi^psstiaan rarely shows such gratitude. He is insensl ble to all these praisea. His "character is -above criti cism." He: fears -if, he is complimented by the l*ress that his"hon esty" will bo suspected. With him "hon esty" is a shining and burning trait. It is as dear to him as Religion was to the Pharisees. As Mr. Broomall expresses it, "he hopes they will never attempt to praise him."

We are charitable enough to" believe that thia distinguished member was prob ably nerved to his sudden attack upon a large namber of gentlemen by the fact that he retires from Congress upon the 4th ot March, and that he now speak* from a quick temper or an excited fmag' ination. For ourselves, we lament bis retirement into private life. It is not often that we have a man in a public station whese honesty is beyond all praise, and who goes to his daily duties praying that he may be soundly abused before night. This self-abnegation is so beautiful that it makes us sad to see it fading into oblivion. We trust the people of Chester will send Mr. Broomall to Congress again, if for nothing else, to remain there during tho balance of his life as tbe Saint Simeon Stylites of modern representatives "D
