A millionaire of Granvill, Wis., has
recently mado a will, in whioh be leaves
650,000 to any incorporated town or
village in Wisconsin, that will not tol
erate a brass band.
The Democracy o( Indiana county
have nominated ex-Governor Biglcr for
Governor, and the ex-Governor tells
them that "my personal desires shall
not interfere with my duty to my party
and my State."
Peter B. Sweeney, one of New York's
big thieves will return from Paris, un

agaiost him.
Europo has 'tfive millions of soldiers
all ready for fighting, with fifteen
thousand cannon and a million and a
quarter of horses; its united fleets con
sist of 2,039 vessels, manned by 280,
000 sailors and carrying fifteen thousand
guns. The cost of these immense arma
ments is fivo hundred and sixty mil
lions of dollars annually, three-fifths of
the amount boing consecrated to the
armies.
By a recent Act of Congress twenty-
five cadet engineers, U. S. Navy are to
be appointed by the Secretary ot the
Navy annually on the recommendation
of the Academic Board, under whoso
supervisions and direction the competi
tive examination is held in September
at the Naval Academy. The appoint
ment is not within the patronage of any
member of Congress, but may be i
curea Dy any smart boy possessing
ambition and self-reliance enough to
help himself, The plan is one which
cannot fail to work well, inasmuch as
the rhnd examination of the loaid will
leave no doubt of the aspirant's qualiU
cations, and each boy will stand upon
his own merits, rrith no favoi-3 to ex
pect and no patron at his lack. Erie

The residence of James McMullan,
ot Warren, Pa., was partially destroyed
by fire on Monday morning last a week
The house was occupied by Mr. J. II
Bowman and family, and Miss Fanny
and Mr. Robert McMullan. Mr. B.
and child had a narrow escape
Through great exertions on the part of
the citizens and fire department a por
tion of the furniture, and clothing of
the family were saved. Mr. Bowman
bad just returned from Pittsburg with
over 1,100 which, as the banks were
cioscu, no placed in a closet wita a
quantity of silver ware with which it
was destroyed. The fire was caused
by the explosion of a lamp. The house
was valued a 83,000 but was insured
for 2,000. Insuranco on furniture
1,200.
The New York Times speaking of the
potato says; Of all products of the soil
there are none, except perhaps a few
cereals, whose cultivation ought to be
better understood than that of the
potato. It is the most valuable of our
vegetables, and the most generally
grown, and it is nlso the one which has
been often affected by serious disaster.
It is; however, at intervals during the
current century that the potato crops
have suffered most. In 1822 much
loss was felt by the potatoes rotting
almost as soou as they were out of the
ground. In 1831 and 1S38 the "taint"
destroyed the crops. In 1845 and fol
lowing years murrain, or "potato
disease" as it was specifically called led
to famine and much suffering. During
recent years dry rot, aphides, fungi, or
some unknown cause has, affected the
potatoes, and in maoy instances des
troyed them. Three centuries nearly
have passed since this vegetablo was in
troduced into Europe, and although
there are recorded instances where the
supply was almost ruined by frosts, it is
chiefly within the last fifty years only
that it has failed from disease. Whether
the art of cultivating the potato has
been lost; whether we have imprccupti
bly glided into methods of culture that
are not suitable; or whether any change
ha3 come over the plant itself, are ques
tions undetermined. But there seems
little room for doubt that the subject is
one which deserves tho most carfelul at
tention of practical agriculturists and
men of scienoe. It is one which so in
timately affects tji.e interests of the com
munity generally that it cannot easily
receive too much consideration.
New York, July 16 The joint com
mittee of the National Itifle Association
and Amateur llifle Club held a meet
ing ta-day for the purpose of making
the necessary arrangements for the re
ception of the American team. It was
resolved to give the team a reception
down the bay, a procession up Broadway
in carriages, and a banquet at night.
The Ninth Regiment has oflered their
servioe as an escort. It was also re
solved that a suitable testimonial be pre
sented to each member of the team.
PENNSYLVANIA FINANCES.
The New York Post publishes from a
correspondent an interesting statement
of State debts and resources, in which
Pennsylvania figures very favorable.
He states that the receipts of our State
Treasury were, during the last fiscal
year, six million throe hundred and
thirty-six thousand dollars, against six
million four hundred and thirty-four
thousand dollars disbursements. Her
receipts from personal property taxes
were seven hundred and two thousand
dollars; from banks, two hundred and
eighty-four thousand dollars; from cor
porations, twelve hundred and forty
one thousand dollars, from insurance
companies, two huudred and seventy-
nine thousand dollars; by an item stated
as "gross receipts and net income,"
seven hundred and eighty-nine tbous.
and dollars; from coal, two hundred and
fifty-one thousand dollars; from tonnage
and commutation of tonnage Oax.)
seven hundred and sixty-one thous
and dollars; fVii writs, deeds and
collateral inhcfraAoes, four hundred
and sixteen thousand dollars; from licen
ses, eight hundred and six thousand
dollars; from sales of warrants and
patents for publio lands, ono hundred
and thirty-nine thousand dollars; and
from miscellaneous sources, one hundred
and fifty-six thousand dollars. All the
receipts have been detailed at the risk
of prolixity to show how the taxation is
distributed over the main sources of
revenue that tho State possesses. Her
principal expenditures were For Exe.
cutive Department, one hundred and
two thousand dollars; for Legislative
purposes, two hundtcd aod seventy.
seven hundred dollars; for' the Jukicial
Department, two hundred and eighty
nino thousand dollars; for publio print
ing and binding, one hundred and
thirty-seven thousand dollars; three
hundred and thirty-six thousand dollars
for charitable institutions; five hundred
and eight thousand for soldiers' orphans'
schools; six hundred and forty-eight
thousand for other educational pur
poses; only one huudred and four
thousoud lor State penitentiaries
(agaan.st nino hundred and fifty-six
thousand dollars for State prisons in
New York:) feveteen hundred and
eighty-nine thousand dollars for redeem
ing debt, aud eighteen hundred and
sixty-four thousand for interest on the
publio dedt, with some other smaller
items,
A Naw Tarn of Civil Eights.
While the colored people of the
country, aud particularly those of tlie
South, havo awaited with anxiety the
judical interpretation of the Civil
Rights Bill, the Caucasian element has
felt no comparative apprehension of any
possible construction which should cur
tail thcii rights or even bring into qucs-
tion the tirivileee ot a white man to
avail himself ot every convenience
which publio or private enterprise
opened to the community at large. Our
Washington exchanges are now discuss
ing tho novel question of a white man's
rights as against a colored publican and
the decision ot the courts is awaited
with interest. It is quite common at the
National Capital for colored persons to
keep lodging houses, and quite as com
mon for gentlemen of good social rank,
Congressmen for instance, to rent rooms
in them, On Thursday last a suit was
entcied by a white man against Henry
Smith, who keeps lodging house, for
ejecting him from his house on account
ot his color, contrary to the Fifteenth
Amendment ot the Constitution of the
Uuited States. A room had been
rented to the white gentleman in the
absence of tho landlord by his mother
and upon his return he closed the doors
upon his lodger, with the frank avowal
that he would accommodate no white
person. Justice Sampson issued a war
rant for the arrest oi the landlord. Now
the boot is on the other leg, and we
shall await the result with interest. So
will the colored people, for if a deoision
is made in the white man's favor in
this case it is in their favor in a hun
dred others just like'it. If the courts
should decide in favor of the white
man and against the colored proprietor
in this instance the entire brigade of
"off-colored swells in Washington will
begin actions against the barbers of
their own color in that city with a view
to damages for refusals to allow them
the privileges of tho hair-dressing es
tablishmcnts. L'lic Dispatch,
The speech of the rebel General
Preston, at tho UuiversityJ of Virginia,
has accomplished an excellent work. It
has given the South an opportunity to
say that it has outgrown the old faoa'
tics and ranters, aud has ceased moan
ing over the past. Not a single
Southern journal has defended Pres
ton's harauguc, but ou the contrary, all
of tbem have uttered sentiments similar
to the following from the Memphis
Avalanche:
Tho destinies of the South have been
transferred to the keeping of the
younger men, most of whom were not
voters when Sumter fell. They have
more important tasks than brooding
over the past aud presaging evil in the
future. They have a vast, almost
ruined empire to rebuild and beautify
and enrich a country to render
greater and more glorious than ever be
fore. Men charged with thia great
mission have no time to listen to the
maunderings and jibberiugs of un-
sheeted and uucoCned ghosts.
A man named Wells, reoently re
leased from the Connecticut State
Prison, will be retained by the rule
shop contractor as over-seer, at regular
wages. He is now seventy years of
age, and has been in prison nearly forty
years of bis life due to a mania lor
horse stealing.

A LIVE NEWSPAPER,
IN :
ALL ITS DtE.rfA R TJIENTS.
In entering Jupon the New Tear, ana
within a few months of the Beeond anni
versary of the first appearance of the paper
the publishers of the PITTSBURGH
EVENING TELEGRAPH renew their ex
pressions of thanks to an intelligent and
appreciative publio for its
LIBERAL AND EVER INCREASING
PATRONAGE
during the year just closed. Comlne into
existance, at a time when every kind of
Business was to a certain extent depressed.
and when retrenchment in every direction
was tne rule, the T-ELJSulvArn has fought
its way, and become, not only an estab
lished fact, but a
PRIME NECESSITY IN ETERV WELL.

whether it be of the" counting-room, tho
professionalofBce, the woskshop, or the
family. Its circulation, equal to tho best
from the start, has grown in extent and im
portance daily, until now it acknowledges
but two equals-Mhe Dispatch and Leader
bo far as the number issued daily is con.
cerned, and no equal as to the character of
its readers. Ihesc'aots are so well known
and apprcciateu by the business commu
nity, or the shrewdest members thereof,
that our columns have been wcll-filled by
the favors of
THE BEST CLASS OF ADVERTISERS.
and we are gUd to know that their faith in
the TELEGRAPH as an advertisidg me
dium has becu firmly established.
TIIE'PITTSBURGII
EYEIfflG TELEGRAPH,
ban, we think, during the past year rr.ain
luiued its claim to the good will and sur-
prot of the people, irrespective of party,
inasmuch as its opposition to bad nomina
tions within the party whose principles it
favors was largely instrumental iu procur
ing their defeat. While it shall be our aim
io promote the established principles of
the Republican party, we shall in the fu
ture, as in the past, oppose the election to
office of men not fully qualified, or who
shall by trickery or any uufnir means
manage to secure a place on tho ticket.
Honesty and capacity ouly will receive our
support.
THE. TELEGRAPH? will oontinue to
publish ALL THE NEWS OF THE 'DAT
at the earliest moment, aud in such a
shape as to be acceptable to the most
critical reader.
The TELEGRAPH will coutiuue to re
fleet' the BsntimeBts of tho people on all
publio questions touching their welfare.
The TELEGRAPH will uphold zealously
the hands of all men honest and earnest in
reform, and it will, as in the past, give all
sides a hearing on the topics ot the time.
The TELEGRAPH will labor with, re
newed zeal for the prosperity of the city
aDd State and the advancement of the ma
terial interests of our citizens. Its
LOCAL DEPARTMENT
will continue to tie carefully attended to,
and its reports of local events will be
always fresh aiid reliuble. Its
SPECIAL TELEGRAMS AND CORRES
PONDENCE from the Capitals of the Nation and State
and from all important news centers will
continue to be of the most .attractive aud
trustworthy character. Its
MARKET AND FINANCIAL REPORTS
will receive the same careful attention that
has been remarked in the past, aud in this
respect the TELEGRAPH will .continue to
be without a competitor. Its
EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT
will 'contain an honest expression of views
ou all importHut.live topics, political aud
otherwise. Its
NEWS AND LITERARY DEPARTMENTS,
which have always enjoyed an exalted rep
utation, will oontinue to jbe of the same
unexceptionable character. In fine, the
EVENING TELEGRAPH
IN; ALL- ITS DEPARTMENTS,
will be during the Jear 1875, superior to
the cast, excellent as it has beeu by gen
eral admission. No expense will be spared
to keep the paper abreast with the times,
and its managers will exert every effort that
experience may suggest to mane ii possible,
more attractive to the general reader.
