Tiikhk in a blight unpleasantness of
feeling lietween Washington, Pa., ami
Waynesburg, on the ground that the
former did not contribute munificently
to the Narrow (Jauge railroad now build- 'p
ing. The Reporter of yesterday replicn |jec|
caustically to a taunt of the Wayncsburg (jjm
Republican in regard to niggard line. on wjtj
the part of the Washington people, by
remarking that they hare spent large
sums in the lleinptield and Chartiers y
roads, and that the building of these givi
roads at so much expense to Washington a^A
county has inured to the benefit of
Greene county, and made her present prei

well as a poMibility. ?up
There is force in theso remarks of the
Reporter. The Greene county people have |iirj
made a terrible amount of fuss over the ir red
narrow gauge project, ami taken their As*
time to do what they have done so far. aru'

Wk referred Home time ago to the fact of I
that the Kiverside Iron Works of this vill
city had imported several car loads of 'ow
tiu direct from Liverpool to Wheeling at por
I t cents freight per hundred pounds, a jj*
rate hardly more than half the present is
rate from Baltimore to Wheeling on the
same cla<s of goods. The case is, it would
seem, not an isolated one. Tin is being
shipped through from Liverpool to Chi- ?'.<
cago for Ie?s than it is chipped to New Jjo'i
York. Why this is so does not appear. ^
It seems, however, that contracts of this lull
character can be made in Europe, and
we judge by some remarks iti the New one
York Times that they are not confined to y
tin. That paper expresses the apprehen- ??
hioii that the wholesale trade of New j?'.|
York is being thus threatened by interior J!"J
citieH. It hIiowh that 100 tons of tin 'l>
platen Kent from Liverpool to New York
would pay a freight cost of $350 02 in
currency; whifo if Bent from Liverpool
through New York to Chicago, the freight 0f
cost would l>e only $320 SO. In other inp
words,the European steamship companies tat
running vessels into New York transport
one hundred ton* of goods from Liverpool j)0]
to Chicago for $32 73 less than it costs to
bring the same goods to New York. ^
When it is remembered that the buyer of t
these one hundred tons of goods in New t
York must pay some $700 or $800 to have fy*
them railroaded from there to Chicago, i
it will be seen at onco why her jobbing
trade id threatened with annihilation. jC(J
It id no wonder that a New York mcr.
chant complains that the "grass is beginning
to prow in Cliir street" in that q?
city. ClilVfltreet is the great heavy hard- the
ware street of New York. be
Ocr German Lutheran friend* debated dei
a curious question yesterday at their Sy- Pai
nodical session in this city, viz: the
scriptural relation of marriage with a tjv
deceased wife's sister. The argaments res
pro and con are given in our local report of
of proceedings. The report indicates
that there isja decided opposition among cj,j
some of the members* to recognizing- such doi
marriages as scriptural. Those who are 111
curious in this matter will take the trouble
to read the report for themselves. to
The debate will be continued to-day. of
The question thus rained is not new by
any means. It comes up periodically in
England, in Parliament, and was up not J,,
long ago, at which time a very strong cf- ore
fort was made to abolish the law forbidding
marriage with a decoased wife's l)e<
sister, llut while the sentiment in favor mt
of abolishing tholaw is the erowinpspnti. tK*
ment of England, and will finally pre- *>8
vail, it was, nevertheless, not strong
enough this time tu eftect the desired lri
change. There was the same law in Vir- ur
ginia when we were a part of that State, ca;
am!ouch may stillbe the law.hnt it was
always avoided by going into other States tj,
and Reforming the ceremony. pa
The debate yesterday shows how hard
it is to make out a satisfactory caso from
a scriptural standpoint against such
marriage*. I/>gic in logic, and no man 1
can be convinced that a relative by marriage
stand* in the position of a relative
by blood. Physically there is a ^
world of difference, and it in only by as- ra
sliming a doubtful construction of the pj
Levitical degrees as defined by Moses sc
that a theological case has been made out vi
against marriage with a deceased wife's nc
sister. **
Without mixing ourselves up with the
discussion now going on among our m
Lutheran friends on this subject, we pi
would liko to ask them what, they do
with the case of tho woman who had JJJ
seven husbands,especially with the record \\
found in the 19th verse of the 12th chap- T
ter u( Mark, reading'a^followa: ,
"Master, Mooes wrote unto us{ if a rr
man's brother die, and leave his wife boland
him, and leave no children, that his ij,
brother should take his wife ami raise up tj,(
need unto his brother." co
If thin should not meet with sufficient mi
faror in the eyes of the brethren now in
our midst, we would cito them to the JJ
book of Ruth, 1st chapter, 12th and 13th
verses. The old original?, way back in mt
y days, did not ?eem to4b? very carebout
degreed of consanguinity, Raying
ling about mere relation by mard,
for we read that Abraham
ried*his half sister, Isaac his cousin,
le Jacob married two of his courins.
hen, too, beside these two outside
is, there is the direct case of Tamar,
waited so long for a chance to mara
brother-in-law, as recorded in tlio
i verse of the 38th chapter of lleneTrue,
the case occurrcd before the
ng of the law, but it serves to show
it the custom of the country was
mg the chosen people of Providence
u the very start. They wero not a
particular on such points as marrjra
sister-in-law,
here is certainly much to be said for
i marriages, an for instance, where
welfare of a sister's children is at
c, as is often the case, and where
relation thus acquire* a nanctity penr
to itaelf. It ia hardly po?nible,
ever, that the theologianx will ever
e thin question satiifactorily. It
finally be nettled by law and cuntorn
II part* of the civilized world. At
time it wax unpopular in thin counbut
now-a-daya it is allowed to be
ere matter of taute, and the old proi
of "dc guttibus non dLii>utandum" npi.

Johnson, the Republican State Auditor,
vs. Juniel, who took possession of the of*
tico April 25. Judge Billings, of the United

dismissed the petition for an injunction
restraining Jumcl from acting as Auditor
and nays: The petitioner ban not alleged
that he was deprived of any election, but
retained his office four months. That
the attempt to deprive him was defeated
I. by the Keturning Board. Thus he
ha* secured the election and has been deprived
of an oflice to which he was electy
ed and declared elected not bv the exclusion
of votes for any reason but by revolution.
The statute limit* the jurisdic*
n tion to the sole question arising out of
the denial of the right to vote. Its scope
extends from the tirst act to the final
canvass. It' tho preliminary exclusion
of votes has been prevented
or the result declared without discrim*
3 ination or exclusion by the proper
State authorities, the atatuto closet) the
doorway on the jurisdiction of this court.
The defeat must be accomplished by the
machinery of an election. An election
free from enclusion the plaintiff alleges
0 has been accomplished and the result ar*
rived at under the statutes. It gives no
jurisdiction over a cause merely to physically
regain an office. The aucation by
which the court could take jurisdiction
is not presented. This loss of office is
iw independent of any right to vote as if
he had been ejected by a government set
by a foreign invasion claiming authority
