SENTINEL & REPUBLICAN MIFFL1NT0WN. Wednesday, Dec. 5, IMS. B. F. SCHWEIER, EDITOR aBB raorKicroK. Too Much Money. Whabtos Barker, of Philadelphia, vho waa qaietlj working for Gar- field for the Presidential nomination, with Garfield's knowledge, while Gar field himself was at the head of the Ohio delegation at Chicago, instruct ed to work for John Sherman, is the father of the plan to distribute the surplus revenue of the National treas ury among the States for education al purposes. The late Republican State convention was unwise enough to pass a resolution favoring the plan of Mr. Barker. Outside of the Com monwealth the plan has come to be known as the Pennsylvania plan for the disposal of the surplus money that has accumulated in the treasury of the Nation. A number of public men favor Bar ker's plan. A number believe that the custom duties or tariff on foreign goods, should be reduced, and the internal revenue or war tax should be taken off to Euch a degree that the income of the government will pay its expenses and no more. James G. Blaine come.? forward in a newspaper article that was publish ed last week, and declares himself as against this Barker Pennsylvania plan for dividing the accumulated money of the United States govern ment. His first objection to the plan, is, that there ia no way of ariving at the amount that the U. S. Treasury can spare every year, and without know ing how much money they are to re ceive each rear, the States cannot know how much to tax themselves. His second objection to the plan, is, that it would tempt Congressmen to withhold National appropriation, eo that they could get a large share of the National Treasury fund for their respective States. His third objection, is, that it pre sumes that the Treasury will always continue to be overflowing with mon ey, and such a belief will engender extravagance and corruption. After having stated his three points of objection, he states that ho has plan, for the trouble of too much money in the treasury. Hits plan is to keep the customs or tariff on foreign goods. The revenue or uioney desired therefrom will pay the expenses of government, but all taxes cauhei by the war, which are comprehended under the name of In ternal levenue no would repeal, ex cepting the tax on whisky. Whisky, he says, is a luxury, and in his view is as properly a subject for taxation as homes, business pla ces, and farms which bear the bur den of taxation, too often, to the dis tress of the owners. The whisky tax, ho advocates, should not be repealed but should be collected and divided among the States. In his jnJgmcnt, to so dis pose of the whisky money would be a great relief to taxation in the States. The tax on liquor the past year a mounted to ov-er eighty-six million dollars. Pennsylvania's share of that amount, if divided among the States, according to population, would be a bout seven million and a half dollars. Blaine's plan for disposing of the surplus money in the treasury is pre ferable to the Barker plan. It is argued against them both, that the whole of the Internal Reve nue tax system must be repealed, for the reason that it is not constitution al. ' It was 6et up as a system dur ing the civil war, as a military neces sity, to raise money to uso to pay soldiers, and munitions of war with which to put down rebellion. The war being over the raising of revenue for the maintenance of government should relapse to constitutional meth ods. What wild vagary in the mind of Wharton Barker poesessed him to propose his plan for the disposal of the too much money in the National treasury has not been stated. Blaine's plan may arise from an honest purpose to fix the power of the National government to tax the States, in times of peace, or it may arise from a desire to make for him self a distinct Blaine issue on which to carry on a campaign for the Pres idency in 1884. Blaine may not be bidding for the applause of the gal leries, or for a Presidential nomina tion, he may be perfectly honest in the expression, "that it is wiser to tax whisky than to tax farms and homesteads and shops." If Blaine's plan can be brought within the scope of the constitution it will raise many advocates to speak and write for it Thk New York Sun has quit yell ing that the Republican party must go- Looking up pension claims takes up a great deal of the time of Con gressmen from the Northern States. Bedford Methodists come in first this year, with a report of a glorious revival season. Fifty conversions are reported. Rev. Warren II. Cudwobth, of Bos ton, dropped dead in his pulpil just as ha announced -the text for his Thanksgiving sermon. The Allegheny State Senators who threatened to resign their seats and go home, have not yet d me so ; they were easily induced to sUy. The American hog may now be im ported to France, and the question with dealers is, will the new field for the Bale of pork raise the price of pig meat ? ' Souk one states that the oyster is nearly all water, and that puts the juicy bivalve on a par with the earth which is said to be 30 parts water and 1 part solid material. a s a member oi uongress proposes thi3 session to offer amendment 16 to the constitution to prohibit poly gamy within the limits of the au thority of the United States. Some one has said that tha Irish element is large enough and influen tial enough in the United States to make a war with Great Britain prob able within the next ten years. . Governor elect Hoadly of Ohio has been passing a time in York State, and that has given rise to the ques tion among politicions, that perhaps he is figuring for the Presidential nomination of 1881. The Democrats elected John S. Carlisle, of Kentucky, Speaker of the House of Representatives. There is a great crowd of hungry office seek ers at Washington, each expectingto pick up a loaf or a fish in the Demo cratic House. A burglar broke into a preacher's house in Hellertown, Pa., on the night before Thanksgiving, and was caught by the preacher and put in jail. A preacher's house is as poor a place to break into as an editor's. The thief should be punished twice. Congress convened on Monday. Important questions will be brought before this session. The redemption of the trade dollar. The reconstruc tion or the destruction of the inter nal revenue system, are questiops of the highest importance to the whole people. Two corporations churned a piece of property in Westmoreland county, this State. The one corporation con cludsd to drivo the other out of the oc cupancy of the property and with that end in view, armed a number of its men and marched them to the place they wanted to occupy. The place was guarded by the other cor poration ; a battle took place, pistols aud shot guns were used. One man was killed and three men were wound ed. It will be just aa well for the corporations if they refrain from such outrageous proceedings, before the people become disgusted with their wrangles. THAXxsoiviNa day is getting to be a big day. The Yankee seems to think as much of it as he does of Christ mas. People who have not yet be come Yankeeized are disbelieving enough to declare that it is a day of more worship to the turkey gobbler than anything elae. The first Thanks giving was a feast by the Massachu setts, Plymouth colouy in 1G23 in thanks for the harvest of that, the third year of their life in the woods of America. In the two preceding years they had almost starved during tho winter, but the autumn of the third year found them with a stock or provisions sumcient to remove them from all fear of starvation. From that comes the Thanksgiving day of these times. "Commodore W. J. Koujttz, propri etor of the Allegheny Mail, who was convicted of criminal libel in a Pitts burg court was sentenced last week to pay a fine of $500, costs of prose cution and undergo thirty days' im prisonment in the County JaiL The article which provoked the libel suit charged Councilmau Walters, of Al legheny City, with using his official position for personal gain. Commo dore Kountz is well known through out the Northwest and along the riv er from Pittsburg to the Gulf. He is an old steamboat man and ha con trol of a line of steamers running np the Missouri. He is also President of the Pittsburg, Allegheny and Man chester Railway Company and at one time was immensely wealthy, but re verses have considerably reduced his fortune." "At West Point, once, Gen. Sher man, accompanied by the Command er of Cadets, was making an inspec tion tour of the barracks. He wasn't looking for contraband goods, but while in one of the rooms he got talking about his cadet days, and "When I was a cadet," he said to the Commander, "we hid things in the chimneys during the summer months. I wonder if the boys do so still." (It was then in June.) So saying, he stepped to the fireplace and reached up the chimney. Rattling down at his touch came a board, followed by a frying pan, a bottle (empty) and a suit of citizen's clothes. The faces of the cadets who occupied the room were a study, but the General only laughed, and, turning to the Com mander, said : "This is an excep tional case, ColoneL" No need of reporting these young men." Judge Kimmell Eide of S. W. .Pomeroy. When the Rebel forces under Gen- i TOA fflmA intn Ppn nevlmTiia in 1 - I for a number of days no definite ic formation could be obtained as to what point he would direct his army so as to meet the amy of the Poto mac, which was following him close ly on the Washington side. When the State government, and the Pres ident were most perplexed to know where Lee was heading for, Gover nor Curtin received a despatch from Port Royal, this county, stating that Lee had concluded to movo his army to Gettysburg, the despatch was not signed, but the information was sent to Washington and thence to the commander of the army of the Poto mac. Reader, you know what took place at Gettysburg. It was the bat tle that rolled back the tidal wave of Rebellion. As to who sent the de spatch fjom Port Royal as to the movement of Lee was not found out by Governor Curtin till quite recent ly. The Governor never gave up the search for the man who sent the im poi tant information, and when he earned that Rev. Stephen W. Pom eroy, of Mount Union, Huntingdon county, had sent it, he requested Mr. Pomeroy to write to him an account of the event which must, from the nature of the case, now be classed a mong the great events of those try ing and important pivotal times. Mr. Pomeroy answered the Governor's request as follows, which was pub lished iu the Philadelphia Times oi last week. MotrxT Chios, Pa., Nov. 13, 1883. IIo. A. G. Ccbtib Dear Sir: In com pliance with your request, I send you the account o( bow I came to send you the tele gram or tbe concentration of the Confeder ate army at Gettysburg during the war. Af ter being discharged from the nine months' service of the Pennsylvania Volunteers, I happened to be borne, at my father's Judge Pomeroy, of Boxbury, Franklin county when tbe enemy were marching down the Cumberland Valley. There was, of course, great excitement, for the enemy was at our doors and taking what they would. Farm ers hid their horses and other stock in the mountains, as far as possible. One day thee hundred cavalry marched into Roxbury. When we learned of their coming tea of the men who had been out in the bine months' service armed ourseli es as we best could and went out to intercept thorn ; but the odds were too great, so we retired. Anxions to hear the news and render what service we might to our country, a number of us walk ed to chambarsburg, a distance of fourteen miles, reaching there in the afternoon. That night the rebels concentrated at Gettysburg. Next morning Judge F. A. Kiromel, with whom my father sat as Associate Judge, learned that a son of Thomas Pomeroy was in town. lie sent for lue to come to him at once I found tbe judge on the street that leads to McConnclburg, a short distance from the Franklin Hotel, where the Central Presbyterian Church now stands. As the town was fuy of rebels and a rebel had bis beat near us, the Judge asked me if I was a son of Thomas Pomeroy. I replied in tbe affirmative. With apparently unconcern, be atked me to follow him. I did so and he led me into a little dark back room and told me that the rebels were concentrating at Gettysburg and Governor Curtin did not know it. He said it was of the utmost im portance that tbe Governor should know at the earliest possible moment and asked me if 1 would take a tclt-graru to the nearest point on tbe Pennsylvania Railroad and send it to him. He added : "It is of in finite importance to him and to our coun try." I replied that I would try it. The telegram was already written, so he cut a bole in the bucklo-strap of my pantaloons and deposited the telegram to be sent there and said : "Get this safelv and in the shortest time possible to the Governor."- Assuming indifference, I came to the street and met tbe rebel guard who did not dis turb me. Some of those who came with mo wishing to return to Roxburv, we set out together, We met many at the edge of the town, re turning, who conld not get tbrouzh tbe guard, who were stotioned around the town. Coming to tbe forks of the Strasburg and Roxbury roads we found both cavalry and infantry. On tbe left there was a slight hol low, also several wheat fields, and beyond these there were woods. This was the on ly way to hope for escape. Atniy proposal we crept along this hollow, at the end of wnicn tucre were some wneat nelds; we kept these between us and the guard till we reached the woods. Wben getting over the fence into the woods we were seen by the enemy. They called, rode after ns and lev eled their mnskets at ns, but we ran on, and as iney am not nre or follow us tar we es caped. Still fearing capture we reached Strasburg all bad fallen behind but one. We must have walked about seventeen miles be fore we got to Roxbury. As the horses were hid in the mountains I was in dread least I should not get a horse, but I met Mr S. L. Sentman riding into town to get feed for his horses in tbe mountains. Telling him of the message I was carrying be gave me his horse. Informing my father of my errand I sot out on my trip at once. It was about noon. The mountain road to Ander son Valley was, I knew, blockaded with trees to prevent tbe marauders from enter ing tbe valley to steal horses. On this ac count I crossed the mountain into Ander son Valley by a foot-path, then another mountain into Path Valley. Reaching my uncle's W. R. Pomeroy, at Concord, and telling him my business he got me another horse. The Barrens, below Concord, wore blockaded by citizens of Tuscaxora Valley, many of whom knew me. Tbe report hav ing reached them that I was killed while trying to hinder the rebels from entering Roxbury, tbe obstacles and excitement of my friends at finding me alive hindered ma about ten tniautes. Free from them I has tened down the Tnscarora Valley as fast as my horse could carry me. At Bealtown Mr. Beale, now the Rev. D. J. Beale, speedily got ma a fresh horse. When I reached Silas E. Smith's I did two things, got lunch and proved to the future Mrs. Pomeroy that I was not dead, as she supposed, but good for many years to come. From thence I rode to my unclfa's Joseph Pomeroy, at Acade mia, found them likewise mourning my sup posed death, and he supplied another horse, the fastest he had. That carried me within a mile of my destination, when a soldier on guard called, Bait!-1 told the sergeaut on guard my mission and requested one of the guard to go with me, that I might get the telegram off to Harrisburg in the shortest time possible. Getting on the horse behind mo we rode in a few minutes to the office. Finding the operator, he cut the telegram out of the strap of my panialoous and sunt it at once to yon. The excitement and journey be ing over, and the telegram being off to you, I began to look at the time and found it a bout nidnight, 1 had walked that day a bont seventeen miles and ridden a Do at for ty-one miles. Anxious as I wai about the critical state of the country, I was so tired I had to seek the house of my kinsman, Major J H. Pomeroy, in Perryville, new Port Royal, for reat. Tbe above is the history of that telegram, that, I believe, first gave you notice of tbe concentration of tbe rebel troops at Gett) s- burg, just before the famous battle in that place. Respectfully yours, Stxpbii W. Pomibot. Calathumpian Bands. In the Quarter Sessions Court of Perry county, there was a prose cution against a calathumpian band which was reported in the Blooinfield Advocate with the charge of Judge iSarnett, last week, as follows : This suit in the quarter sessions against John Rhoads, Samuel Baum gardner and wife, Jchn Sitterly, Jr., rsutcher John Knoads, Anna lijlen and John KaQ'enberger, grew out of a caiatnuuipiiin serenade given Eli jah Davis, of Rye township, who had not then recently been married, but had left his wife and homa and mov ed to a shanty on a coaling in the neighborhood, and there took np his residence. It was alleged that the wife instigated the serenade and was indicted with the above defendants, but as Mr. Davis and his wife had come together since the suit was brought, a nolle prosequi was enter ed as to Mrs. Davis, but the others for the racket they made with horns, bells, "musical" boxes and their oth er proceedings had to fitaud the "racket" of line and costs. That all others may know how the law stands in relation to the "fun" of calathum pian serenades, we give below the charge of the Court in this prosecu tion. To the Jury : The defendants in this case are charged in an indictment contain ing three counts, first with the offence of Kiot, in too second count with being guilty of a riotoua assembly, and in the third with riotous destruction or a private dwelling. Blackstone defines an unlawful assembly to be "when 'three or more do assemble themselves together to do an unlawful act, as to pull down enclosures, to destroy a Warren or the game therein and part with out doing it, or making any motion towards it-" A Riot (as defined by him) is where three or more actually do an unlawful act of violence, either with or without a common cause or quarrel ; as if they beat a man ; or hunt and kill game in another's chase, war ren or liberty ; or do any other unlawful act with force and violcuce; or do a lawful act, as reaioving a nuisance iu e violent and tumultuous manner." Violence is defined by Webster to be "physical force, strength of action or motion." Bouvier'a Law Dic tionary says it is "the abuse of force." That lorce which is employed against com mon rights, against the laws, and against public liberty." ilolt, C. J., in delivering tbe opinion of le court in certain case, said that the books are obscure in the defi nition of riots, and that be took it, that it is not necessary to say they assembled lor that purpose, but there must be an unlaw ful assembly; aud as to what act will make a riot or trespass, such an act as will make a riot ; as if a number of u.tn assemble with arms, is lerrortm populi, though no act is done ; so if three come out l au alehouse and go armed." (Tomiis's Law Dictionary See Riot.) "Wherever there is a prede termined purpose of acting with violence and tumult, the conduet of (he parlies may be deemed riotous. Tbus, although the audience in a public theatre have a right to express the feelings excited at the moment by the performance, and therefore to ap plaud or hiss auy piece which is represent ed, or any person who exhibit? on ttie stage, yet a here a number of persons, baring couie to a tbeatre with a predeteruiiued purpose of interrupting the performance, so as to render tbe actors entirely inaudible, though without offering any injury to the house, it was held that they were guilty of a riot." (Clifl'ord vs. Brandon, 2 Camp. Iii8.) "it is a riot if a number of people assemble in a town, in tbe dead of night, and by noiso or otherwise, d slurb peaceable citizens." (I'enna. vs. CritTs et al. Addison's Reports 277.) Time, place and circumstance are not without influence in characterising hu man action. The ringing of church bells in years tbat are gone waa considered, if not absolutely necessary, at least altogether lawful. But now in densely populated pla ces and when clocks and watches are found iu every habitation, the same thing under certain circumstances has been declared a nuisance and restrained by injuuetiou. Cer tain conduct might be considered riotous in o church which would not bo so in a bar room ; on tbe Sabbatb, which is not such a secular day ; acd under our preseut civili sation which would not have beeu consid ered in ages past and goue. The cviJcuco on both sides iu this case shows that tbe defendants or some of thrm in the latter part of July last or beginning of the follow ing August went to tbe cabiu of the prose cutor in this county and with racket, boxes, bells, bores, and discordaut noises engaged in what they called a serenade. It does not appear that they did any injury to the cabin, then forming tbe residence of the prosecutor, and 'therefore wo think there should be no conviction under tbe third count of the indictment. But we thiuk the evidence is sufficient, if believed by tbe jury, to constitute the offences charged in tbe first and second count of the indict ment. In order to operate th6 boxes produced iu evidence, tbe bells and the born tbst pro duced the noi-es beard a mile away from the sceue of action, such violence waa ne cessarily employed as was sufficient to con stitute an element in the crime of riot ; and the acts so performed we thiuk must now be held to be unlawful. It is the duty of the Courts so to admin ister the laws as to preserve tho public peace. And however aerenades may have beretofore been regarded in the commun ity, we think it is tbe duty of the Court to so declare tbe law to be, that that which is uow calculated to disturb the public peace is contrary to law. If we are not mistaken serenades of this kind have been resisted in several instances by the parties serenad ed to the exteut even of tbe use of tire arms, and it certainly depends very much upon the personal characteristics, good nature and forbearance of the parlies serenaded that tbey are not forcibly resisted in every instance. Ttmpora tnutanlnr tt not m lamnr is tllit, is tbe expression of a fact which challenges recognition. That wbieh ia now calculated to disturb peaceable cit izens and incite to active resistance, must be declared to be unlawful; and serenades of this kind are characterized by tbat sort of violence that constitutes the offence it perpetrated by three or more which is riot ous in all its incidents. All present at a riot are prima facia of tbe number of rioters. But owing to tbe curiosity implanted in our nature, which at-, tracts spectators to public demonstrations, the presumption of guilt may be rebutted by actual proof that the spectator were not ac tive participants in tbe scenes tbey were witnessing. And if any of the defendants in this case were merely spectators who were not of tbe number who originally met for the purpose of effecting this serenade, then upon evidence tbat they did not actu ally assist in producing tbe discordant sounds aud annoying noises, they should be acquitted. But if all assembled at the place of serenade bad previously met and came tbere in company, tbey might all be convicted. Yon may find certain of the de fendants guilty in manner and form as thev stand indicted in tbe first and second counts of the indictoient, and as to the rest of the defendants not guilty if you thiuk such ver dict jus i lied by the evidence. If you find any three or more of tbe defeudants guilty in manner aud form as they stiud indicted in the first aud second counts of the indict ment then you utid say uolhing about the costs. Bnt if you acquit all of tbe defend ants then yon must dispose of tha costs. Ana you may put all the of the costs upon the connty, or the prosecutor, or tbe de fendant, or you may apportion them be tween the prosecutor and tbe defendant in any mauner which under the evidence yon may believe to be just and right, and if yon put any portion of the costs upon the jiros- jw must name uim id your Teruici Now, finally, we say to you that so called calathumpisn serenades, perform w:!h horns, twits and other instruments creating hideous noises are riotous'wlthin the mean ing of tbe law, and we submit it to you un der all tbe evidence in this case to sav whether the defendants in this case or any of them are guilty of such offence.
