New York Itlot.
Tho OrntiRO lodges Of Nuvy York,
composod of l'rotcstnnt Irishmen, de
termined to colcbrato tho battlo Of tlio
Iloyno, on tho 12th Inst., by a grand
procession. Tho Catholic Irishmen de
termined to break up tho procession.
Excitement ensuod, which wns fanned
to tho utmost heat and excess by tho
newspapers of tho city without ulatlnc
Hon of party or creed. Finally tho
Mayor of tho city and Chlof of l'olluo
determined thcro should bo no process
Ion, and tho latter Issued n proclama
tion to that effect. At this stago Gov.
Hoffman Interfered nnd Issued a proc
lamation promising protection to tho
procession and tho Orangemen contin
ued their preparations. Thoy turned
out on Wednesday nt 2 o'clock, p. m.,
protected by tho police nml a largo forco
of Mllltla. They had not proceeded
f.r, however, until somo shots wcro
llreil nt them from windows. Tho flro
was quickly returned by u portion of
tho military. About .10 persons in all
Including men, women and children
wbro killed hnd over 100 wcro wounded,
and, what was most unfortunntc, most
of theso wcro Innocent persons.
Of courso tho right to turn out In
peaceablo procession Is ono that every
rorm of government, from tho Fcdoral
authorities down to tho most humblo
municipality, U bound to protect. This
is abstractly truo and denied by no one.
Hut peoplo of certain peculiar opinions
would not bo tolerated in procession by
tho most peaceablo of communities. In
former times, in days of inllnlto public
purity as comparod with tho present,
an Abolitionist was not anywbero In
this Stato permitted to lecturo without
Insult orattack In somo form. No Ab
olition procession could thenhavo mov
ed through tho streets of tho most pence
nblo towns In tho Stato without attack.
Kvonnow,lfseces3lonIstgor anybody, clso
wcro to attempt to colcbrato ltobol 'vic
tories In tho most peaceablo northern
towns thoy would bo drivon from their
purpose. IfaMormon procession wcro to
pcrambulato tho streets of tho highly
moral, patriotic and boautiful town of
Hloomsburg, its sweet nngels, If nobody
else, would Instituto a riot. Wo hold.
therefore, that this abstract right of
glorification of events or purposes, can
only bo Indulged In" with safety and
will only bo respectod when substance
Is not offen9lvo to tho public. Nor Is It
oxpcdlont to exercise abstract rights at
all times or at all places. A child may
bo proporly spanked In tho kitchon but
not In tho church. To put a strong caso,
any man las a right to shear n wolf or
a grizzly bear, yet all will agree that It
la Inexpedient to exercise such rights.
Tho Orangemen had a right to parado
In tho streets of tho city or Now York.
It is tho duty of the government to uro-
tect this right of the people. It was,
kowovcr, Inexpedient and unwlso for
tho Orangemen to parade, as tho result
proves, and whllo tho government of
mo city ana Btato of New York proper
ly protected tho procession, It cost many
lives and a great deal of monoy to do
so. Should factious peoplo bo porm! tied
tbm to Jeopard tho public peaco and
Weed tho public purse? The whole
ducstion resolves itself into ono of ex
pediency, and not of principle, and from
that stand point must be decided.
Orango lodges havo little business In
America. They aro Inapplicable to our
institutions. Thoy aro protcstant Irish
men who avow loyalty to tho English
crown in opposition to Irish indepon
ilonce. Tho battlo of tho Boyno, which
the Now York lodges proposed to cele
brate, was tho decisive battlo fought in
J090 by a usurping king of England,
William III, against James II, who had
been driven from tho throne and had
taken refugo In Ireland. Tho forces of
tho former wero composed of English,
Dutch.a few protectant Irlsh.and others.
Thoso of tho latter wero mainly Irish
Catholics, aided by a small French forco.
Tho victory of tho former was comploto
and overwhelming, and tho persecu
tions of tho Catholic Irish that followed
wcro or tho most cruel character. Tho
feeling of hatred has over sinco been fos
tered and Intensified, tho Orangomcn at
all times siding with tho llrltlsh against
tho great mass of Irishmen who deslro
tho Independence of tlieircountry.Tho
latter look upon tho former as traitors
and hate them with all tho Intensity of
their rervld natures. That any clorin
cation of tho Orangemen, therefore,
woum exclto recllogs of tho utmost ro
sentment on tho part of tho truo ropro.
BPmauves or the feelings of tho Irish
nation against tho participators In It Is
natural. But as tho wholo matter at
issue is foreign to our soil, and has no
referenco to anything with which tho
American peoplo can havo proper con
nection, and Is suro to induce serious
not, as wen as other most dangerous
consequences, tho Orangemen might
wen bo required to conduct thomselves
In such a manner as not to disturb tho
nubile peaco.
The Itadlcals expect to mako political
capital out of this sad ovent, and their
nowspapcrs vchcmcntlyospouso thosldo
of the Orangemen. Well make It. What
ovor they gain by taking sides with the
oppressors or a peoplo who navo as
much right to independence as any
other on earth, they aro legitimately
entitled to, fortorob whlto men of their
rights and to oppress all who do not
agree with them, is tho very heart of
tuclr principles.
Of courso tho Radical press teoms
with and will contlnuo to spew out any
quantity of libels upon tho Irishmen of
Now York particularly and tho Irish
peoplo generally. At present, therefore,
it will bo well to accept only as facts
that which is admitted or otherwlso es
tablished.

President Judge.
An unusual number or rresldent
Judges aro to bo eleeted next fall, as tho
second term of ten years from tho first
election In 1857 will expire tho present
year. An ofllco so Important, honora
ble nnd pecuniarily valuable, is of
courso sought after with avidity and
energy, nnd Intcnso excitement is a
natural result. Wo rejolco to see, how
ever, that In several localities (as In
Berks, where W. J. Woohwaiid pre
sides) no political or other opposition
Is offered to present Incumbents of pe
culiar acccptlbility. In districts, too,
where party machinery is almost nec
essarily resorted to, wo obscrvo that
many refuso to acquiesco in its binding
force, bieauso tho ofllco Is not political,
and ought never bo partizan, aud Inde
pendent candidates are therefore tho
result.
In tho Mifllln district n rather unusu
al clrcuinstanco has occurred. Tho
Lewistown True Democrat, nu organ
that has over been faithful to all tho
principles and usages of its party dur
ing a long period of soro trial and do
feat, expressed a prcferenco for tho
Judgo now on tho bench, but distinctly
asserted that it would abldo tho action
of its party in tho premises. Certain
gentlemen of extraordinary political
virtue, led by that rcmarkablo speci
men of high sonso of moral and party
obligation, and imraaculato virginal
purity of thought and action, den.

manded of the editor to sell out to them,
which mandato ho declined to obey,

Henuy Fkysingeii, Esq., tho editor
of tho True Democrat, Wo havo known
him long and intimately. No better
specimen of " God's noblest work, an
hontst man," lives. During all his
manhood ho has been a sincere, indus
trious, devoted, honest, nover tiring
and always firm and rellablo editor and
democrat. Although his position on
tho Judgo question is mado tho excuse,
wo do not in tho least doubt that his
storn personal integrity and firm devo
tion to tho priclples of his party, anil
hi3 Invulnerability to dictation by self
ish political gamblers, is tho real causo
of opposition to him. We liopo tho

It Js said that somebody has got to
lying- about candidates. Wo don't
know whethor it is exactly truo that
this wondorful thing has happened, but
it Is one of tho possibilities of sublunary
affairs and if considerably indulged in
ought to bo sovcrcly reprehended. It
is a fearful thing to admit that there aro
any peoplo in Columbia county who.In-
dulgo In that vllo propensity ami u was
fondly lioped that tho clergy had so rar
headed off Clootlo as to stop that branch
of his enterprises amongst our people.
But lrcandldates are suffering from tlio

dering it harmless than for pooplo to
dlsbeliovo everything that is said about

there aro about as many good lies told

provement and embellishment of

Wo would further say, for tlio consoia
tlonof candidates, that a man who can
not gracorally stand somo lying at his

tho manipulator of his schemes in Con

thirty years, with occislonnl Hashes to

REVENUE OPPRESSIONS,
ltnlir Mrllenr)'s Statement.
Editor oi'' Columihani As n fow
persons havo blowed nbout my troubles
with government ngonts and nceuscd
mo of cheating tho government out of
whiskey tnx, I will glvo you tho facts
of my caso. 1 havo not chawed nor at
tempted to cheat tho govcrilmoiit out
of nny tax, but I havo Peon persecuted
by government ofllcors and Informers
and havo bpon robbod out of many
huudrods,or dollnrs by thorn.
in tho rail or 18G3 I mado application
for a llconso to distil whiskey nccordlng
to my understanding of tho lnw, and,
was informed by tlio proper olllcers
that I would havo to pay $100 per year
license nuil GO cents per gallon tax on
tho amount I would distil ; that I
would havo to build a warchouso ut mv
own exponso for storing (ho spirits and
that tho government would appoint
and pay a storekeeper to take charge of
too storehouse. 1 mado application to
Mr. Clark, who was then Itoventio
Assessor, for ihoappolnUncntofii store
keeper, and ho recommended to tho
Treasury Department tho appointment
of Samuel 11110x1:, Esq., who was a
very competent and rellablo man. 1
signed 11 dlstlllci's bud ami nil tho
other papers that wero required "of mo,
and as far as I know compiled with all
tho requirements of law for starting
my distillery. Tho llconso (or special
tax, ns It was called), could only bo
granted to run tlio b.ilaneo of tho revo
titio year, that Is to tho 1st of May, 1SGD,
which was about six months from tho
tlmo when my application was mado,
and I was charged for that tlmo at tho
rata of $100 per year. Shortly after my
application I received notlco to pay tho
license money nnd did pay It to tho
Collector of tho district.
I built my wnrehouso, to comply
with tho law, got my grain on hand
and bought up hogs to feed at tho dis
tillery. So f did all that I understood
was neeopsary in order to begin nnd
carry on my business. As far as I know
I had compiled with all tho require.
ments of tho law, and I looked for tho
nppearauco of a slorokoepor iu ordor to
go on lu nil respects, in a regular niauucr,
I waited somo time, but no storekeeper
appeJied. What was I to do ? Was I
'o start, or lay ldlo nt heavy loss and
oxponso? I had paid my licensoand It
was running out, I had laid out monoy
10 prepare lor business and had my
stock of hogs on baud to feed. U.'.der
this stato of facts I started up with tho
expectation of tho storekeeper's being
on overy day nnd Intending to pay
every dollar of tax when called on. I
distilled openly and In no way tried to
ovado tho notlco of tlio rovenuo officers
or of tho public, but did not run near
all tho tlmo covered by my llconso and
which I had paid for. Altogether
ran only about live months and then
not nil tho tlmo
Why tho appointment of storekeeper
wns withhold I nover could learn
whether It was through political Inter
foreuco or for somo other causo. What
I do know Is, that tho law which wns
shown to mo required tho Treasury Do
partmcnt to mako such an appointment;
that I was told by tlio proper govern
ment ofllcors that it would bo mado;
that I did all I could to got n store'
keeper and that tho fault, if thcro was
any fault, In there not being such an
officer overy day nt my distillery, was
not mine. And it looks to mo very
much as if there had boon an attempt
by ovil-dlsposod mon to prevent an ap
pointment Iu order to persecute and
plunder mo ns was dono afterwards. I
havo been credibly informed sinco,that
Mr. Mehcur objected at tho Treasury
Department to Mr. llitoxrc'ri appoint
ment, which ho must havo dono nt tho
instigation of men in this counlv who
desired to injure mo.
But I was ready to bo nssossod and
pay my taxes whenever called on, and
with fair treatment from tho govern
ment ofllcors tliero would nover havo
boon nny difficulty or complaint. But
I will stato how Samuel Ivnorr, tho
Assessor, and Kichard Stilus, his
iVsslstant, managed my assessment.
Stiles, who mado It, ns ho said by
Ivnorr s direction, never called on mo
In regard to tho matter, but mado it to
suit himself. It was dono without my
knowlcdgo and without an examina
tion of tho facts, and tho first I know of
It was by a notlco to pay it from tho
Collector. Tho tax assessed was i 1 179,
SO, which was over $000 toj much, ac
cording to tho full capacity of tho dis
tillery for tho tlmo it was run. Why
was I not called on nt tho tlmo to re
port tho amount of spirits distilled, or
allowed to show that tho assessment
was wrong? Stiles lived In my neigh
borhood, and If ho had conio to mo and
mado this assessment, ns 1 think was
his duty, ho could havo got It right and
saved mo much troublo and expense,
besides tho payment of n largo amount
of unjust tax. IIo, could como to mo
lor every thing clso ho wanted to learn,
and lio admitted afterwards, when a
witness, that I always gavo oatlsfactnry
answers to all questions ho asked lu re
gard to our business. Ho ho has no ox
cuso for his conduct und tho explana
tion for It must be that ho had wrong
motives and Intended to take tho ad
vantage of 1110 in that way.
Tho assessment, which was moro
than doublo whnt it should huvo been,
I tried to have corrected. I showed by
tho old books nnd receipts or previous
years that It was erronoous ana by
statements or J. S. Woods and others
that I could not possibly run tho amount
I was assessed with. Woods had as
sessod mo for two or threo former years
when ho was nsslstant assessor, and
know tho capacity of my stills what
I could run overy day or month ns
did my workmen. Tho full capacity, or
my stills was four bushels of ryo Iu
twenty-four hours, and I proved clearly
that I did not run moro than two or
threo bushels per day a good part of tho
tlmo during tho llvo months I stilled
under tho llconso of 1S0S. Having
proved this by tho old rovenuo olllcers
nud by my sliders, as well as by official
recolpts and papers, I asked tho rovenuo
authorities at Washington to correct tho
orroneous assessment which Stiles
had mado. After much troublo and
somo delay and expense It wasiulmltted
that tlio assessment was wrong and
ought to bo changed, but I wjts Inform
ed that under tho government practlco
It could bo reduced only 1!0 per cont,;
that becauso the assessment had been
mudo it must stand whether right or
wrong ns to 80 per cent, or tho amount:
This Bottloment or tho matter I was
obliged to submit to and I paid tho
wliolo amount as round against mo with
tho understanding that tho wholo sub
Jcct was ended mid closed forever; that
though I had hat) n good deal of troublo
nnd expense lu tho settlement nnd was
obliged td iayalargo amount of "mart
money" under Stilus's nHscssmout,ycl
all trouble would then end and I would
huvo no moro difficulty. For tho
prlvitcgo of running my small copper
stills flvo months I paid for llconso and
tax on spirits, tho amount of $1091,83,
and havo my receipts to show. Tho
government received from mo nil that
owed under tho law for taxes and
hundreds of dollnrs over, and tho rov
enuo officers hero nnd nt Washington
well know this fact for they had tho
ovldcnco nnd thoy received my monoy.
I was charged nnd I paid between flvo
and six hundred dollars moro of tax
than tho truo amount, nnd when I paid
It I thought 1 was uurcawnnbly pun
ished for any Irregularity In my busi
ness which -had been caused by tho fault
of tho government Itself lu not sending
1110 u storekeeper ns It was bound by
lnw to do.
But I had n good deal to learn In tho
ways of government olllcers nnd In
formers ns 1 will explain by Htatlng
what further took placo between them
nnd me. Stilus, not ml Is lied with
making nu unjust nssossmcul against
me, mado 11 raid upon my premises In
Benton township. Ho camo to my
homo nnd said ho was lu search of
whiskey. I told htm I had somo on
hand that I had kept for my own use
I told him where I kept It and how
much I had, bororo ho went to look for
It; that I kept It In tho cellar kitchon
which was used every day and where
every 0110 that camo In could seo It;
also that there word SI gallons of old
whiskey, made before the stamp-tax was
jmt on whiskey, that lay In tho room,
open to vlow. llo said ho must lake
an account of that old whiskey too. So
ho had full Information nbout tho
whiskey from me, but not satisfied with
that he went to the stlil-houso and
through It, then to another homo closo
by, then to tho plg-pcn and to tlio bam,
and all tho whiskey ho found was that
I told him of, at first, in tho house, be
foro his search began. Ho went through
every building on tho promises except
a small ono lu ono comer of the garden,
and I wondered that ho did not exam
Ino that. Tlio question nny bo asked
why ho was so very particular In his
scarcn. My answer Is, that ho was
playing Informer nnd tho moro wills
key seized tho moro monoy ho would
make, ns tlio Informer's share wns 0110
half. Well, tho amount of whiskey
seized was Gl gallons, and it was all
confiscated, old whiskey and all. It
was nftorjvards sold at government salo
although every dollar of tax on It had
been paid by me.
Threo days after 1 had paid off nil
tho demands of tho government upon
mo ns settled at Washington, a man
named De Lacy, of Luzerno county,
ncting under tho U. S. Marshal, camo
to my homo and nrrestod mo. Ho up
pcarcd as both prosecutor and olllccr
und hnd some fat pickings In vlow
I havo since learned that ho is n low
creature, and has been discharged from
the government service. Ho camo from
Stilus' to my placo nnd went back
there afterwards. After my arrest
appeared In Bloomsburg before U. S.
Commissioner ItomsoN for a hearing
but tho prosecution had not their charges
ready nnd thov put off tho caso for two
weeks. They fixed their own tfmo and
I was bound over with ball to appear
A fow days before tlio tlmo for tho nil
journed hearing, tho deputy collector
camo on, under orders, nud levied 011
all my real and personal proporly which
I havo been advised wns against law
AH my property was thus tied up on
tho assertion that I was an offender and
it was to bo held to answer nil penalties
that should bo mado out against mo by
tho informors und scoundrels who woro
on my track. They intended to fright
ened mo Into buying them oil' for a big
sum, or If that failed to mako nil thoy
could out of tho prosecutions.
When I appeared before Koiiison tho
bosond tlmo and had n hearing, it was
not pretended that I had committed
my fraud or that I owed the govern-
moot any tax. But it was said that
certain regulations of law as to storing
nnd stamping my whiskey before salo
had not been attended to, which thoy
know very well was caused by tho neg
lect of tho government Itself lu not
sending mo a storekeeper. Such officer
would havo scon to tho storing and
stamping In tho coutso of his duty nnd
given mo directions about tho other
llttlo poluts brought up tho keeping of
books and putting up n sign. Now I
should like to know if tho law is to bo
kept so nicely, how tho government It-
soir will stand? I asked for a store
keeper aud it was my right to havo him
and tho duty of tho Treasury Depart
ment under tlio law to scud him to mo
at my plnco of business. They did not
execute tho law and then I was prose
cuted for Irregularities that happened
in conscqucnco without nny fraud or
loss of any kind to tho government.
On tho hearing of tho caso tho only
witnesses against mo wero S. ICnorii,
tho Assessor, nud Bichard Stiles, ids
Assistant, nnd I was bound over by
Commissioner Bomsox to appear In
tho United Stales Court nt Pittsburg- In
three days. That was rather short no
tlco for crossing tho wholo length of tho
Stato and getting ready for trial I Ho w-
ovcr I got ready as well as I could and
hurried out to Pittsburg to tho Court,
where tho U. S. Attorney told mo to go
home, that my trial bolongcd ut this
end of tho district, nt Willlamfiport, So
I camo back with no result from my
Journey except a consideralilo bill of
exponso which was put upon ino by tho
net of tlio Commissioner Iu binding mo
over to Pittsburg. But Mr. Koiiison,
though a United States ollloer, Is known
to bo no bolomon.
At tho hearing before Koiiison,
ICnorr stated very positively that I
was arrested before 1 had paid all my
taxes.' But my receipts contradicted
him lu that. Tho last of my tax tho
payment of which was delayed lu tho
attempt to get a deduction at Washing
tonwas paid In full 011 tho lib or Oc
tober and 1 was arrested on tho 7th or
tho sumo month. So that it cannot bo
denied that tho nrrest was after full
payment (and In truth over-payment)
by mo.
Stilus also sworo boforo HonisoN
Umt tliero was no sign up on my distil
lery when I was distilling, or ho could
havo scon It. At tho samo tlmo ho ac
knowledged that ho haif not Uecii nearer
to tho dlstlllory than tho road leading
from Benton to Itohrsburg which Is six
or soven hundred yards distant. Every
person, jicqunlnted with tho placo knows
illUV -I JUIKUI' IIUVU JIUlt H HlgllS Up
without tholr boingBcen from that road.
This ovldcnco was given to liolp tho
prosecution In their inlsorablo charge
that 1 had not a sign with letters "three
Inches long" 011 my distillery. That
was a crlmo for which 1 was lo bo
bound over for ttlal four hundred miles
off on threo days notice.
Now I will mention what took placo
after this In relation to my prosecution.
Papers which showed up tho facts wcro
sent on to Washington nnd my lawyer
went tliero, as ho had gono to Pittsburg
more than onco, to get n settlement.
Mr. Mercur nlso went to tho Treasury
Department sovcrnl times to urgo a set
tlement. Finally (after asking n higher
sum) thoy ngrcod to tnko $300 moro
from mo ns n compromise nnd settle tho
prosocutlou ; but I was to pay nil costs
and expenses of overy kind nnd glvo n
rolenso to tho rovenuo officers and agents
that I would not suo them for damages
for nnylhlng thoy had dono. This set
Moment I was advised to nccept nnd
did so. Although It did not do 1110
Justice, my friends said to 1110 1 ''You
havo your hand In tho lion's mouth and
must got-lt out tho best way you can,"
and I supposed I had host follow their
advice. However on making my last
payment of over $.V)on costs last wcck,I
concluded it was duo to myself and my
friends that I should print tho facts of
my caso for public information, espec
Inlly ns thoy havo been misrepresented
nnd It Is tlmo that tho truth should bo
known.
You will soe, Mr. Editor, that I had
strong reasons for going on to still under
my license, nud that no wrong was dono
to tho government by me. Also, that
Micro nover was any ground to nccuso mo
with fraudulent conduct or concealment
In my business, aud that I was always
ready to pay my taxes when demanded
On tho other sldo tho government offi
cers woro to blamo in not providing mo
a storekeeper when I was ready to bo
gin work and applied for ono to bo sent
mo. Tho Assistant Assessor, Stiles,
treated mo very unfairly in tho assess
ment of my tax and I was obliged to
pay much more than I Justly owed.
Then, nil my whiskey 011 baud was
seized and sold though I had paid tho
taxes on It. Then I was prosecuted by
nn informer, who wu3 helped on or set
irolmr by Knoru and Stiles, and
bound ovor to Court, nud all my prop
ortywas levied on by Fortner and
put in charge of 11 watchman. And nt
last 1 was charged $1100 more at tho
Treasury upon 11 settlement or tho caso
nnd required to pay alt costs nnd ox
penses. My own expenses nlso wcro
heavy during thoso proceedings. Tills
was tho treatment I got from govern
ment olllcers and I havo had moro than
enough of It. I think It waslmost un
just nud scandalous.
I had no troublo or difficulty with
other rovenuo officers, in my business:
except ICnorr and Stilus. J. S
Woods assessed mo for two or three
years and ho nnd all tho othors can
testify to my conduct. Including 11. 1'
Hartman nnd B. F. Paxton, who
woro collectors. They ncted with mo
fairly and I respect thcin. I paid tax
when it was 20 cents per gallon nnd
when it was 00 cents and for a whllo
when It was $2,00 11 gallon. I havo paid
on my llttlo distillery ovor $8,000 tax to
tho government nnd nover hnd nny
troublo until thoso olllcers camo In. As
to B. P. Fortneu, tho deputy collector,
though ho did somo things that scorned
hard, ho acted moro honorably than
tho.othors. After papers woro put In
his hands I could not blamo him for
executing them. But the men who
sought nfter tho destruction or my prop.
crty aro tho ones I blamo.
