as the commission thought it for the

Fleiscbner does himself injustice wheo
ho published that he will do a thing
which in fact be will not do. h may
have been ofersigbt oa his part that this

who lire at a distance and are holders
State warraats to publish that they
can tome here for their money and
disappoint them, on their arrival here,
by tendering them only a part of it.
There-is another announcement made
in this advertisement, in which it
strikes os I he Treasurer has "reckoned
without bis host." He adds a para
graph to say that no interest will be
paid " after this time." Wo confidently
anticipate that the courts will prick
this bubble blown np -by Democratic

an illegal affair, and pronounce all its
acts illegal. We should regret to see
all the high judicial aspirations of our

humbug pretensions of this commis
sion should be done away with and set
aside, and steps taken to bare the busi

.Society: !
Herewith I submit my annual report as
Secretary of your Society for year ending
with last month.
During tbe year the regular meetings of
the Society have been punctually held, and
well attended.
Our efforts have been less active, in some
respects, than in previous years, because,
probably, of tbe accomplishment of the de
sign to provide a home, which was built
and provided with a matron daring tbe pre
vious year.
At the present time this institution tt un
der tbe eare of Mrs. Raymond, and while
there are no orphans in the Home, it is still
accomplishing much good by affording a
comfortable home, at very low prices, for
half-orphaned children, where fathers are
not prepared to personally provide for them,
except in some such manner.
Tbe child, in the institution a year since.
has been adopted by Mr. Fisk, and so is
well and providentially eared for. .
While it may be thought by tome that
the Society ia not accomplishing much io
the line of its epicial design, we may feel
proud of having, by our labors, and the
benevolence and generosity with which tbe
public has seconded them, erected a com
fortable Building and made a commence
ment that shall some day form tbe basis of
an extensive establishment or which the
State may be glad to avail itself.
We are ready and willing to receive and
provide for any orphans who need a home,
but it U a fortunate thing for our State that
there are not many such as yet. There are
frequently cases of orphans adopted and
kindly esred for by families, which so re
lieve the demands upon us.
I can say, with sincerity, that so far we
have done a good work, and have met with
success that is gratifying. Our means
equal our needs for the present, and when
ever the demands upon us shall increase
there is no doubt that tbe public will second
our efforts by liberality in furnishing neces
sary means. Harriot T. Clarkc

Tbe storm raised In tbe House of

b iw Howell Cobb, tbe rebel Secretary
of the Treasury under Buctaansn, wat
0:ing hs office to break down the
credit of tbe United States at one of
the surest means of making bis trea

tban tbat, since Cobb bad at least tbe
merit of sincerity, without avarice,
while here is a combination of a De

tbo lobby, whose sole motive can be
nothing but the making of money by
aa act which it is flattery to call
'robbery.
One of the counsel for the lobby who
were interested in the consummation of
the villainy was Earle, law partner of
Creswell, now Postmaster-General. He
was alto once Assistant Postmaster
General. A joint resolution, authori
sing tbe payment of tbe claim, was re
quired. It was engineered by Jobo
Cessna, Congressman from tbe Six
teenth Bedford Pennsylvania Ds
trict, ia this wise: Oa his motion, tbe
rule were suspended, and the joint res
olution was carried without report or
debate; he then bad it sent at once to
the Senate, where by a similar process
it patted tbe same day ; it was tben
rnthed to the White Home and the
President was prevailed on to sign it
right away. From first to last bat 18
hours elapsed. Tbis " law " was then
taken by Earle, tbe conasel for these
confederate swindlers, to the Postmaster-General,
to receive the d ran ft for
tha cash wbicb it authorised to be
paid. He showed Creswell a forged
report of tbe House Postal Committee ;
aad on the sight of this forgery aad the
law just paesed, Postmaster Geaeral
Creswell, without waiting for farther
information drew tbe draft oa the Gen
eral Fund for it. He did this ia the
face of adverse reports made by four
f hie predecessors la tbo- Department,
and aleo by kimttlf! - That reports all
concurred that tbe claim had no foun
dations in law aad equity.
Whea the facte were exposed by
. Dawes aad Beck of tha Sub Committee
' oa Appropriations, 'tha House stormy
as is it normal coaditioa even ia tbe
. fact of most important matters, was
' startled into a thrilling silence. Mem
: bers crowded aboot the Speaker's chair
ia-otter consternation at bat was be
: ing divulged, and Cessna, tb member
wbo engineered lb claim through tbe
Ron'. et eilm, aw t.h4
owa cbalr. At tbe conclusion of tbe
reading of tbe report a resolution-was
unanimously passed repealing the Earle
Oeeena ' joint, resolution 'to . psy the
claim, and so Tor the present arresting
tb swindre. Tbat is,we treat, bat the
begioniaff of boocit proceeding. Now
let the House arrest this man Earl
and his apparent coadjutor, Congress
man Cessna, and let tnere be such a
thorough overhauling of the matter,
from top to bottom, aa will drag to tt" '
tight every one of the confederate
high or low. The conduct of Post
master-General Cretwell, to make the
very bett of it, is suspicious and
blamable. His hasta in signing the
d.af.. wbeu he knew tbe claim was a
cruet without color ol law or equity
to support it, will shadow bis reputa
tion witb suspicion, and decent men
will be vety apt to think that tbe bett
thing he can do is to resign bis office.
But as for Earle and Cessna, the timet
demand an example, aud there will
hardly occur a better opportunity to
make one of material more worthy of
severe punishment.

French Betoastraetloa.
We have received no positive infor
mation at to what are tbe terms pro
posed for. Germany to secure peace
with France, but it is evident tbat tbey
wish to secure a lasting peace, and to
bate It upon a Government that shall
be satisfactory to the French people.
It was expected that Germany would
either attempt tbe rretoratioo of Napo
leoo or tbe foundation of a monarchy
lo some measure dictated by herself,
but we see no signs of interference
with tbe proceeding of tbe French
Assembly ; no attempt to dictate a to
what style of Government tbey may
adopt. England, Italy aad Austria,
have already given an official recogni
tion to tbe Provisional Government
witb Thiers at its head, tbe first act of
tbe Assembly. With thit Government
Bismarck it willing to make peace,
after wbicb tbe French eople are to
be left to work out their destiny at
they may elect. So far, the Germant
have been reasonable and tbeir course
commands respect for its justice snd
forbearance. It is to be hoped tbat
terms for peace may be agreed upon so
reasonable and just tbat the two na
tions may be able in tbe future to
maintain tbat peace and cultivate
friendly relations without tbe constant
threat of war to hover as a shadow of
evil over both.

Suffering France, trodden nnder foot

people ere reported a being bocgry

bare lent a helping baud, and tbe peo

thould be so, for humanity should lead

T. Martin is ajrent for the sale of the above
work, wbich is a volume of 1,040 pages,
eontaining a thousand illustrations. This
