*National Beformatory Conference,

The officers of the New York Prison Association, of the New York House of Refuge, and of various Reformatorymetitotions, Penitentiaries, &c., "deeming prison discipline a vital interest of society, and one of the gravest of social problems, and on both these grounds worthy of the closet study and the freest discussion, cordially unite in calling a National Congress for conference on criminal punishment and reformatory treatment, to be held in the autumn of 1870, in the city of Cincinnati the Board of Directors of the House of Refuge hav in* signified that such a Congress would be welcomed in that city." They name the following persons to act as a Committee of arrangements for the proposed

Congress:

They also recommend that the Commit tee of Arrangements and the Qpnference give consideration*, to the question of an International Congress on Penitentiary and Correctional Discipline. —"We are fully satisfied that there is* no •other field So inviting to the philanthropist as is presented in the subject which ihis "Congress" proposes to consider Most of the prisons, throughout the Unit ed States, are so conducted as to make in calculably worse the bad men who are confined therein. Convicts, instead of being reformed and, at the expiration of their sentence, returned to society as useful members thereof, are generally hard ened and brutalized day by day and year by year. The young man, sent to prison for larceny—his first crime perhaps—comes out fit for murder. Prisoners are made to feel that eociety is their implacable enemy, and the natural result thereof is that they become the enemies of society,

We believe that all this might be changed for the better that prisons might be made schools of virtue and morality rather than universities of vice. Believ ing this, we hail with sincere satisfaction this call for a "National Congress for conference on criminal punishment and re formatory treatment."

SHULER,

Warden of the Indiana State Prison South, who, with little public encouragement and, we believe, no pre vious experience in the -management of convicts, has already, in a few months, effected one oft he most remark able and beneficent changes ever known We don't think it is profane to say that Col.

predecessor, /MERRI-

WEATHER, reigned as Governor General —dnly accredited—over a colony of Hell The brutality of one bad man and his minions, placed in authority over the four hundred convicts in that prison, had stilled, every good impulse, every worthy as piration in their hearts had transformed four hundred men— not much worse than many who are lucky or rich enough to keep outside of prison walls—into four hundred demons. Col.

SHULER

has sue

coeded in wrenching the colony from the grtusp of Satan has exorcised the evil spirits nurtured better impulses enkind led Hope where dwelt Despair and in stead of reigning as Demon-in-chief over four hundred demon subjects, lie finds himself loved and respected by four hun tired men who, with rare exceptions, cheer fully comply with his wishes, perform their allotted tasks with alacrity, and would shed the last drop of their hearts blood rather than harm should come to the friend who rules over them. 1

of the most sensible measures

adopted by the present Congress is the bill to prohibit the practice of making gifts to the superior officers of the Gov eminent, by subordinate officers under their direction. It is an act for which many thousands of Government employes will be thankful, and at which a few dozen will be chagrined. Hereafter, no in spector, night watchman, or ordinary la rerin the Custom House need be taxed in order to show his gratitude to his chief, whoee emoluments are immensely superior to his own. There will be an end to the business of imposing upon petty officers in order to pamper the ^jrfide of great ones. Possibly there will be a falling off in the business of manufacturers of silver plate, watches, chains and seals, makers of .gold-headed canes, photograph operators and fancy frame makers, who furnish the materials for such "testimonials but at the same time, that which will be to their loss will be for the public benefit, and they should be pleased to suffer the deprivation in the interests of the public at large. a

TnAT generally amiable sheet, the Toronto Olobe, has become fired with the slights that the dignity of the Dominion has sustained from the Winnepeg revolutionists. It condescendingly promises that any just demands of the half-breeds will be listened to, but the rebellion must be put down. Interference by the United States, the Ghbe admits is improbable but its blood is fired, and wc are assured that any meddling on our part will be promptly met by something more effective than the "Queen's Own" regiment.— Commenting on the Globe's foolish bluster, the Philadelphia Inquirer remarks: "We hope our Government has no desire to interfere in the Northwestern troubles but if it had, the power of the Dominion would be of little avail. The idle vaporing of the Toronto Globe will probably have the effect of rousing the dormant ts of our fillibusters, a few thousand 5f whom might take it into their wild heads to cross the frontier just to see how ^promptly they would be met by the Canadian warriors."

article on "Newspapers and the

Franking Privilege," which we reproduce from the Chicago Republican, is well worthy of public attention. It states the case fairly and concisely, and has our unqualified approval. There can be but one object in this Congressional attack upon the country press, and that object must be to compel the press to a selfish opposition to the abolition of the "Franking Privilege." Congressmen say to their constituents: "Keep quiet and let us fill the mails with our buncomb speeches that nobody reads, and with our shirts that must be washed at home arid returned fres of cost, or we will bring you to your senses by taxing you for the privilege of reading your county papers.'' ..

most popular man in the Lnited

States, to-day, is

HENRY

Ffoltf the Chicago Republican.] vs While we most cordially second the recommendation of the Postmaster-Gen-eral as regards the abolition of the franking privilege, we do most unqualifiedly condemn the proposition introduced into Congress to impose postage on newspaper exchanges, and on weekly papers sent to subscribers ."through the postofhees in counties where they are printed. nder present laws, regular exchange journals in the United States pass free, so do hebdomadals, under the circumstances we have specified, except that carriers, personally delivering such weekly jjapers to subscribers, are entitled to receive five cents per quarter, payable in advance.

In theory, it might be made to appear that there is no broadly equitable reason why a newspaper proprietor or a subscriber to a country weekly should be more entitled to be served free than Congressmen, Postmasters, and thousands of other favored Government officials. But the practice and effects of the two cases are very different. In the former ca.se, the cause of useful knowledge is directly promoted, by the interchange of recorded facts and opinions, by encouraging the establishment and growth of newspapers in every country in the Lnited States while, in the latter case, the mails are crowded with reports oi speeches, the cream of which has already appeared in the prints of the time. In a word, the people want to read the journals of the day, and especially the newspapers of their particular locality, far more than they wish to read voluminous speeches on special subjects,delivered in Washington, and sent from there. Moreover, newspapers do not begin to abuse their postal privilege as Congressmen do.

In this connection, one very important question comes up. Why should this attack upon the country press be made? Is it to organize an opposition against the abolition of the franking privilege JHV set Are the advocates of the measure, just as it stands imbued with the conviction that the country press will be so influenced by the special provision that affects them individually, that they will l'cel called upon to cover up, from purely selfish motives, the general abuses or iniquities of the franking privilege, and so afford an excuse to continue the imposition?— Should thisbe the dodge,we feel confident it will not prevail. Let every country journal unite in raising its voice against this "tax on knowledge," and Wc shall soon witness as great a subsidence of the agitation in the direction we have stigmatized, as when the wrathful, surging, mighty waves of the Red Sea swept into ultimate quiescency and placidity over Pharaoh and his armv of Irreconeila-

Jenny Lind of To-day. -ii.. From a letter describing Jenny Lind's recent appearance in Fxeter Hall, London, we quote the following

Wc waited very impatiently through Her Goldschmit's ambitions "instruments at Prelude," and through the first of his jerky choruses. It was not entirely the fog which made our eyes see dimlv the sweet faced wonian sitting on his left hand thinner, older, sadder, but still with the same winning, pathetic atmosphere about every pose, and every expression which conquered all hearts twenty years ago, disarms all criticism today, and will continue to do so so long as Jenny Lind's dwells in body. If there be such things as perfect grace of clumsiness, perfect beauty of homeliness,. she has them and they are more lasting than the grace of gracefulness, or the beauty of good looks. As it is with her face, her movements, her attitudes, so it is with her voice. Sacred above all it has lost, it has kept a certain something of such individualty that one would know it for Jenny Lind's voice. In spite of the huskv chest tones, in spite of the strained and hardly reached upper C, there is a peculiar soul-full quality in it which has ieen rarely heard on any stage, except hen Jenny Lind has sung. Critics would say—and, perhaps, bv rules of art, their assertion can not be contradicted that Jenny Lind's voice is gone. But men and women are still moved to their hearts' depths by her singing. I believe if she sings when she is three-score years and ten it will be the same.

It bears date April 12, 1782, «nd commissions him a3 Lieutenant Colonel in the IJuited States service, to take rank from September 16, 1776.

Since the grand old Commoner went to his fathers, there has been no voice raised in the House that has struck a responsive chord in so many hearts, all over the country, as has the voice of the Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations summoning alike the Executive and Legislative departments of the government to the immediate and serious consideration of the one great duty of the hour rigid, unflinching, practical economy.

We find in a French journal the following dialogue between two married ladies: "My dear, the first months after my wedding, I was on my knees before my husband from morning till evening. It was a perpetual adoration, an incessant delirium, an inexpressible felicity. I over whelmed him with caresses. 1 think I could have eaten him." "And now?" "Now, I am right sorry 1 didn't.'*"A newly married lady in 'hicago complained to her ma that on her reception day her card-basket wits overrun with circulars from lawyers Almoin icing terms for divorce.

For downright sharp practice commend us to a widow—particularly a California widow. Recently, in San Francisco, a widower of mature years proposed to a young and blooming widow, and was accepted. Before the day appointed for the ceremony, however, the lady dashed the cup-of jov from the lips of her lover by informing" him that she had "taken a notion to change her mind. She- had, in her travels for several days past, heard remarks concerning him which created some suspicions in her mind, and she did not like to be almost starved to death, or kept without a dime, as she heard his first wife had been." After the ardent lover asseverated and entreated a long time in vain, she agreed to marry him if he would give her security against ill-treatment. Resort was had to counsel, and a document was drawn up and signed by the bridegroom, securing $3,000 to the .lady, in case of ill-treatment or desertion. They were then united by the matrimonial bond without another delay If she don,t hold that bond in lerrorem over his head, she will be falsetto woman nature.—Cin. limes.

VICTORIA'S HEALTH.

Provable Abdication of tlic }ueen ami Regency of the Prince, of Wales.

The London correspondent of' the New York Herald predicts that the coming session of Parliament, which opens early in February, will be a most eventful one. Apart from all measures of law-making, there is no doubt that the health of the Queen of ngland is such as to render it very probable that a Regent, will be appointed. Her Majesty's health has never been fully restored since the death of her husbandry Prince Albert but latterly she has become less than ever fit for public business. The Prince of Wales would, of course, be named Prince Re gent, a suitable allowance being given him to support his position. That will be popular there can bo no doubt, as indeed, he already is to a very great de gree, and his wife more so oven than the Prince. The change will be very well received by the nation at large, for the absence of court pomp and ex penditure for so many years lias caused a terrible stagnation in trade air over the kingdom. The Prince of Wales has great fund of common sense. lie fully knows and accepts his position for the fu ture, and understands better than any of his family have ever'donehow an English king must rule, but not govern—how he must be at one and the same time the most and the least, influential person in the whole kingdom. His mother was no doubt very popular for many years, but the public got into their heads an idea that she interfered, or rather that Prince Albert thought she interfered, in Stale affairs, and then her popula rify ceased in a great measure Since the Prince died she has been the reverse of popular. At firpt when her widow hood began,

YEARS since a poor but talented

gentleman of the medical profession conceived the idea that if he could produce a medicine of universal application nnd extraordinary merit, and make it known he could not only enrich himself and escape the drudgery of a Physicians life, but also benefit the sick in a greater measure than by his private practice. He therefore consulted with the best Physicians he could find and the result was the product ion of the

JudsonVMountain Herb

Pills, a famous and most successful med icine. He began in a small way to make the Mountain Herb Pills known by advertising them and such was the value of his Pills, that in a few years he had not only amassed a fortune, but had that rare satisfaction for a rich man, of having relieved the sick, and benefitted his fellow-men in every part of the country, as thousands of grateful testimonials could prove. The Judson's Mountain Herb Pills have curhd Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, Female Irregularities, and all Billons disorders. This little sketch serves both to adorn a tale and point a moral.— Dr. Judson's Pills were meritorious and the doctor himself knew the valne of printer's ink. For sale by :aU dealers. f2dwlm
