OUIl MILITIA.
At a heavy expense to the people, a mili
tia organization of 10,000 has been kept in
exigence In tbls State for some years. They
made n nice "bow (on paper) and were han
dy for I'oilrtb of July celebrations, and the
Centennial Exhibition, lint recent events
have shown that they are utterly Incompe
tent to quell domestic violence. With a few
exceptions the otlicers wero Incompetent, and
the men cowardly, or else open sympathizers
with the mob. Men, women and children
were unnecessarily shot down, and thus kin
dled the fires of revolt, and in other instan
ces where firmness was needed, whole com
panies took to their heels, leaving their arm;
in the hands of the rioters without firing n
shot or fixing a bayonet.
It is not the fault of the law. That was
cirefully prepared by Gov. Hartranft and
contains all that is necessary for a model or
ganization. The principal evil is that
the Republicans have made it a political or
ganization and a rendezvous for political
hacks. The men are not tnkeu from among
veterans who could be relied on In any
emergency, but from an inxperieneed or oh
jecliouablo class. Of course there are hon
orable exceptions, but they are rare. The
fain needs no revision, hut tho organization
dmy.
JTIIi: HANK ItllliltKHY TKIAL.
Some tinio ago a hank at Northampton,
ila.ssacliu-ott.s, was robbed of a largo amount
of money and securities. Tho robbers got
into the house of tho cashier, Mr. Whittle."-,
and after biniling.liim and his wife they forced
liiui to give up the keys and to disclose the
working of the combination lock on tho vault.
Subsequently, two men, named Scott and
Dunlap wero arrested for the theft, and are
now on trial for tho crime. Tho principal
witness againt tl-- m is William F. Kdson
who claims to havo been an accomplice and
who has given full particulars of tho planning
and execution of the daring scheme, on the
witness stand.
Mrs. Whittlcsy thinks sho identifies the two
men as tho men who hound her, though both
men were masked. Edson was at one time
in tho employ of n cafe manufacturing com
pany and is an expert in locks. At tho time
he was so employed ho was engaged in plot
ting different bank robberies, though his em
ployers had perfect confidence in him. lie
testifies that Scott and Dunlap entered into a
enmnanv with him in rrili nn Elmlm l.nnt-
Th defense is an ulibi, and that Kdson lias
sworn as ho has against the prisoners on ac
count of a grudge hohas towards them. It
is not denied that the parties were old cro
nies. Great excitement has prevailed in
Northampton ever sinco tho trial becan. It
will probably close this week.
SAVING FUND FINES.
Tho following opinion as to tho manner of
charging fines by the several Saving Fund As
sociations of this county has just been filed
by Judge Elwell
Tho caso was a scire facias on a mortgage to
which an affidavfciof defence was filed. The
plaintiff association claimed to be entitled to
fines for non-paymeut of dues and interest for
six months previous to bringing tlio .suit
which was November 1S7G, and afterwards
until April 1877, when tho defendant's securi
ties were forfeited; and also to fines charged
at the rate often cents on each dollar of dues
and interest for every month in arrears. De
fendant claimed that plaintiff could not col
lect more than one fine on each dollar in ar
rears,nor for a longer period than six months.
The facts were submitted in a caso stated.
CASE STATED.
Opinion if Hip f'uurl.
Tho fifth aiticie of the charter of tho
Bloomsburg Mutual Saving Fund Associa
tion provides that "For ever' dollar of dues
or interest which shareholders neglect or re
fuse to pay, they shall pay a fine often cents
for eqcb month in arrears." Now, as tho un
paid dollar of tho first month is in arrears for
tho second month, the languago of the char
tcr allows the imposition of a lino for the non
payment of the second and succeding mouths.
Building Association vs. George, 3 Weekly
Notes 239.
Whero there is power to impose fines and
tho rules imposing tlicm are clearly expressed,
tho Courts will allow them to be enforced, if
not unreasonable. In tho caso referred to in
Jluilding Association Journal for Juno 1875,
the by law was"willbosubject to a fine of three
pence per share for tho first month, and every
succeeding month thrco pence per sharo addi
tional on tucli repayments." This was con
strued to mean one" fino of thrco penco on
each share. This is different from a provis
ion for a fino on every dollar for each month
in arrears.
x no oniy question men is, wnetucr sucli a
fino is unreasonable. If it were unlimited in
point of time I think it would lie, as it would
then amount to a forfeiture far exceeding the
debt itself. Bat where prompt payment is
actually necessary to the success of tho cor
poration, and delay is unjust to the other
.members who pay according to their ngreo-
, incnt, tho provision for imposing a fine
monthly for six months or until tho whole
hum becomes due and payable by reason of
HuTalll, 14 nftt En nnrncnn.lilnnnil mLnntia na
to render it void.
But after failure to pay interest and dues
.for six months, tho charter imposes another
- and d iffei cnt penalty to-wit : that tho whole
debt shall become due and payable. There
are after that time no monthly dues and no
fines can bo charged for non-payment. The
Association must pursuo its remedy for collec'
tion by legal process and must be content will
legal interest. For tho purpose of recovering
, .both interest, and fines on interest and pay
. . incuts, tho association cannot neglect to pur
sue tho remedy which the by law and the
,, contract of tho party debtor has placed in its
hands.
The Board of Pardons refused to enter
tain the JSeamUh case at their meeting last
week. The next meeting of the Board wil
be on the first week In Sept., and will be the

b made for pinion.

The strikes on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad extended yesterday along the line
to Chicago. Tho United States troops sent
from Washington and Baltimore arrived at
Martlnsbiirg early in tho muriilug, and bar
racked In olio of tho round-homes. During
the afternoon and night KOvcral trains wero
moved from Mnrtiusburg under protection
f the military, and It was expected that all
could bo moved from that point to-day. In
the afternoon, tho telegraph wires west of
the town wero cut by tho strikers, and tho
officials of Ohio division called upon tho
Governor of Ohio for troops. Soveral of tho
ringleader at Martliisburg wero arrested in
tho afternoon, which had a subduing effect
on their followers. Klsewhere, tho strikers
seem to havo been still masters of the situa
tion.
The Ireight train men on the Western Dl-
ision of the Pennsylvania Railroad also
struck yesterday, against nil order of the
Company Increasing thn number of cars in
their trains. The strikers prevented the
moving of freight at Pittsburg, aud before
evening there were eighteen trains without
crews to run them. At a meeting of the
strikers, in which tho engineers participated
as held last night, and it was determined
to stand firm.
Tho Central "Council of the Labor League
f the United States met In Washington
yesterday, and adopted resolutions in refer
ence to the prevailing depression of labor,
and the evils likely to result therefrom. Tho
resolutions advise coolness and moderation,
and warn members of tho Order as well as
working men in general, "to beware of
emissaries who go around inciting to strikes
and violence, which injure labor generally,
and result In the conviction and punish
ment of the participants therein ;" they also
declare that "mob violence and riot lean on
ly to anarchy and the final destruction of
iiman liberty, and it is better to submit to
any sort of despotism for the time being
than to have no government at all.'1 A mass
meeting of tho Labor League of tho District
f Columbia will be held next week to en-
lorse these resolutions.
SATURDAY, JULY 21.
On the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad trains
began to move yesterday morning at Mar
tinaburg, under military protection, and by
eleven o'clock thirteen had started seven
west and six cast. The train sent to Keyser
on Thursday night with a lieutenant and
thirteen soldiers was stoned at Sir John's
Run, but no one was injured. Yesterday
fternoon two companies of troops were
sent to the latter place. Tho firemen of
some of tho freight trains arriving at Keyser,
Cumberland wero taken off by the strikers:
The trouble at Cumberland was such that
the Fifth Regiment was ordered there from
Baltimore. Governor Carroll issued a proc
lamation in the afternoon, commanding the
rioters along the the line of the railroad to
disperse. In Ohio, the passage of trains
was stopped at Newark, and, the cival
authorities being powerless, the Governor of
Ohio Issued a proclamation against the
strikers,and ordered four military companies
to the scene.
The atriko on the Western Division of the I
Pennsylvania Railroad continued yesterday,
and tho firemen on the Pittsburg, Fort
Wayne and Chicago road joined it in the
afternoon. Over a thousand loaded freight
and cattle cars accumulated at rittsburg,
and the strikers are very threatening in their
conduct. The Sheriff of Alleghany being
unable to preserve the peace, General Pear
son was ordered to call out the three regi
ments in Pittsburg.but he was unable to col
lect the men in sufficient force. The Gov
ernor, therefore, Issued a proclamation, aud
called out the entire First Division of the
Militia. Two Gatllng guns and a quantity
of ammunition were sent from Harrisburg
to Pittsburg last night.
The hands on the western division of the
Erie Railway, at Ilornellsville, struck yes
terday morning, and all passenger as well as
freight trains were abandoned, except those
on the Niagara Falls branch.
To-night all the interest in the Baltlmoro
and Ohio Railroad strike centres in Baltimore
arid Cumberland, Maryland. Governor
Carroll came to Baltimore this morning,aud
was assured of the grave state of affairs at
Cumberland, where a mob had assembled
and used abusive language towards two
companies of United States troops, com
manded by .Captain Litchfield, who re
mained in the cars. The troops had not
been called to operate in Maryland, and
ere merely en route to Keyser, West Vir
ginia, where it was expected they would be
needed to quell an insurrection in that State.
In Baltimore Governor Carroll was satisfied
of tho need of prompt action to preserve the
peace of Maryland. Ho ascertained that
the situation was very threatening at Cum
berland, aud did not believe tho local au
thorities could preserve order. Ho there-
tore issued a proclamation, calling on all
citizens of Maryland to abstain from acts of
lawlessness aud to aid the lawful authorities
n the maintenance of pcaco aud order. The
Governor then gave orders that the Filth
Regiment(Maryland National Guard)sbould
proceed at 9 o'clock, under command of
Brigadier General James R. Herbert, to cm
bark for Cumberland, and that tho Sixth
Regiment, Colonel C. Peters, should be held
in readluess for orders. The commands had
been notified on Wednesday that there might
be need for their services, and tho signal
for assemblage at their armories was the
City Hall alarm bell striking 1-5-1.
ran alarm bouNDED.
This alarm was souuded ut C:30 P. M,
and, with the soldiers, it drew to the vicinity
of the armories Immense crowds of men,
many of them with dinner-buckets in hand
coming from their work. Tho crowd was
especially large at the Sixth Regiment arm
ory, which is on the corner of Front and
Fayette strects.opposite the shot tower. Tho
Sixth Regiment is composed largely of wort
Ingmen. lue crowd jeered and stoned the
soldiers. Cheers were given for the strikers
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, developing a great sympathy amoug
the crowd, which grew greater every minute,
Stones were thrown at the armory and nearly
all the windows were broken. Finally, at
about 8 o clock, three companies of the regl
ment, numbering 120 men under Captain
Tupper, of Company B, attempted to move
out of the armory and were stoned in the
vestibule by the crowd pressing over the
sidewalks. The column staggered and full
back, unwilling to use their breech-loaders
or bayonets, which were fixed. Finally, the
column issued forth again, and were agal
greeted with a shower of cobble-stones from
the pavement, which had been torn up i
front of the armory.

The soldiers fired on tho mob ilid the first

volleys wero fired and tho erond scattered.
One company went by way of Fayctto street
and the others by FrnnUtreet to llaltlinoro
street. The latter were followed by n crowd
using stones, and tho attack continued on
Baltlmoro street, all tho way up on the road
to the Camden depot. Tho militia marched
without music, at a very rapid pice, turning
to firo right and left as they were assaulted
with stones. Ten persons were left dead or
wounded on llaltlmoro street, several of
thcni being newsboys, who had been crylug

was quickly cleared and the militia parsed

Seven men nro known to bs killed and
eight wounded, some of them mortally. Tho

which look llko butcher pens. At n saloon
corner of Holiday and Baltimore ntrects a
dead boy, with his skull crushed in, a dead
man, with his bowels torn out by a ball, and
nuothcr dying of wound in the neck, lay on
tho lloor. Similar scenes characterized other
localities on the route. At Cauden Depot
an Immense mob was congregated, and the
Fifth Regiment found tl dlllicalt to make
the way clear. The crowd, piesaing upon
them, tore the muskets from many of the
men, but there was no firing.
EXCITEMENT IK THE CITY.
The greatest excitement and Indignation
prevails In tho city. The troop train for
Cumberland, which was expected to leave at
9 o'clock, could not leave, as It was reported
that the tracks between Baltimore and tho
Relay House wero torn up in several places.
No evening trains due could get in. It was
evident, too, that there is now us much uso
for troops in Baltimore as anywhere elso in
the State. The strikers and iiympathizcrs
here held a large general meeting to-day
privately, but it is not believed this meeting
had anything to do with the emeute, which
was sudden, unexpected anil apparently
spontaneous.
MONDAY, JULY 2.1.
t&itttrdivj at 1'ithbnvy.
The situation In Pittsburg on Saturday
morning was extremely critical. The Alle
gheny county troops and (bote from Phila
delphia were on duty, including infantry ar
tillery and cavalry. The strikers, however,
expressed the greatest contempt for the mil
itary, and mingled freely among them.
From the Union Depot to '.Cwcnty-cighth
street tho streets and avenues were all pick
eted, and every suspicious individual was
stopped. Judge Ewing, of the Common
Pleas Court, early in the morning issued
warrants for tho arrest of the principal strik
ers, and Sheriff Fife attempted to secure a
posse of one hundred men to cxecuto them,
but could only obtain eighteen, most of
whom were the regular deputies. Prepara
tions for a umiflict were b'fun abuut six
o'clock. iiikI at that time the military, with
Gatlini; gum and lield-picciw. were being
concentrated, and the striken reinforced by
millers from Wilkinsburg nuiJl idlo workmen
in the east end. More than half the men
engaged in the obstruction of the tracks
have no connection with thci railroad, and
all the late accessions are froi a non-railroad-
The city was in a feverish .jtate of excite
ment and the streets throrged. At 3:40
o'clock tin. First Brigade of Philadelphia,
under General Brinton, and headed by Su
perintendent Pitcairn, left tl 10 Union Depot
for the bceno of disturbance at the Twenty
eighth street crossing, roaruhing out along
the track and preceded by the Sheriff and
his posse. Anticipating failure in the effort
to disperse the strike.s, the Sheriff, accom
panicd by sonic fifteen deputies, expected to
attempt the arrests and then call upon the
military lor the required assistance. Ihe
party arrived at Twenty-eighth street short
ly before 5 o'clock.
When the line reached tjio depot they im-
med ately cleared the crossing amid the
jeers and hootings of the itrikers, who wide
ly scattered through the fjreat crowd, there
being not less than G,0W) people present.
Consultation was then hekl by the officers in
command with Superintendent Pitcairn and
the Sheriff, after which tiio latter proceeded
to read the riot act. ILaying warrants for
the arrest of fifteen of the ringleaders ho
proceeded to make an arrest. The parties
lar man for whom the i warrant was issued
approached, waved his hat, and calling, to
the crowd and the strilrcrs, said, "Give them
hell." Immediately a. shower of boulders
was hurled into the troops nnd one revolver
shot fired into tbe'iania. General Brinton
then ordered his men. to fire, and the word
went along the line from platoon to platoon
until the left of the Hue was reached, and
then the firing was repeated several times.
Tho crowd fled In dismay and hid wherever
it was possible. Immediately after tho fir
ing crowds of excited people sprang up from
all directions, and the imprecations against
the Philadelphia troops, who wero blamed
by ttie strikers and the mob as being rejpon
Bible for the truuble, were very threatening.
These remarks were interspersed with loud
and bitter threats that the company's shops,
depots and buildings should be laid In
ashes.
Sixteen persons were killed and thirty or
forty wounded. Tho shooting exasperated
the strikers intensely, and at 10 o'clock the
city was in possession of a howling mob,
The gun stores and cutlery shops were forced
open and gutted of their contents, iirmlug
thousands of men who had sworn vengeance
against the military.
tiii: troops besieged.
The troops retired alter the shooting to
the rouud house, where they wero besieged
by the mob. The cars standing on tho track
outside tho depot containing oil weru set on
fire, and at 1 o'clock Sunday morning, the
tracks for the distance of a quarter of a mile
were one sheet of flame, tho inteutlou being
to burn the military out of tho round house.
The firemen were not allowed to uso their
engines. A number of the citizens went to
the Philadelphia soldiers,who were intrench
ed in the Pennsylvania round house, and
begged them to leavo the city, as a general
massacre was feared. They were unable te
do so on account of tho surrounding mob
aud three of the soldiers who attempted to
Blip out singly were shot and Instantly killed
Two citizens were shot down on Liberty
street, and it was reported that Sheriff Fife
was killed and General Pearson mortally
wounded. The rioters also captured three
pieces of ordnance from Knap's battery,
This was the condition of affairs at the close
of Saturday night's and Sunday morning's
reports.
ON THE KOAI).
At Altoona at 5 o'clock a train of soldiers
arrived, en route for 1'ltLaburg, wheu the
strikers congregated on tho railroad and at
tempted to keep It from starting, but the
train got off, toil while it was moving out
the strikers threw stones and fired a number
of shots at It. Several soldiers returned the
fire, but no one was hurt. After the train
left the rioters dispersed along the railroad
in squads and since then everything has
ree n quiet.

lessness, anarchy and turbulence now perva
ding our Stato be emphatically denounced
and condemned and a military company bo
immediately formed for tho protection
of life and property, whereupon seventy-
five names wero at once enrolled.
AITAIItS AT DANVILLE.
The decision of tho borough council at
the special meeting last night, that work
would be furnished tho disaffected men at
tho rate of eighty cents a day, for two days
of tho week, was not accepted by the men.
They claim that $1.00 per week is not sufli-
cient to keep themselves and families from
starving. Contrary to all hope and expec
tation tho mob reorganized this morning,
and Bcveinl inflammatory speeches wero
made. About noon the mob made descent
on a building in which it was supposed arms
belonging to a disbanded military organ
ization were stored, but succeeded in secur
ing only two or three old muskets. Somo
one started the report that the arms were
stored in the third story of tho Baldy build
ing, corner of Mill and Northumberland
streets, for which place the excited mob
rushed, followed by boys and women, while
the alarmed citizens fully aroused to the
sense of their peril, looked on vainly ondeav
oring to decide upon some plan by which
the dangor could be averted. Arriving at
the entrance leading to the third story of the
. . -
Baldy building, the mob was met and refus'
ed admission by polico officers King and
Klphin, and ex-Senator Chalfant, editor of
the Intelligencer, whose office is In the sec
ond floor of the building. Threats were
made that unless admission was granted
blood would be spilt.to which the threo gen
tlemen responded with commendable cour
rage "that an entrance could only be effect
ed over their dead bodies." The determined
manner of the gentlemen awed the crowd,
which soon dispersed and congregated in
crowds of fifteen or twenty at different street
corners. No further demonstrations have
been made, although the excitement is still
intense. The council meets again this eve
ning, and if their action is not favorable it
is expected that stirring scenes will be wit
nessed in Danville.
THE LATEST ItEPOUT.
Danville, July 24. 10M0 p. m. The
borough council did not hold a meeting as
was Intended. The chief burgess had a num
ber of special police sworn in to prevent, as
far as possible, any damage that might oc
cur by fire during tho night. The swearing
in of the police was done with closed doors.
Everything quiet at this hour.
HOW IT WOltKS.
At last ono Federal official has been found
who loves his party more than he loves of
fice. His name is Jones. He has been
postmaster at Nowdlum, Oregon, for sixteen
years, and here is what he said, according to
Don Piatt's Capital of Sunday ;
Newdlum, 0., July 1, 1877.
Mr. J'. AT. Oenl. Key and Tyner :
I ree'd tho Prest't'a order concerning be
ing P. M, I consider this very small bill
ness ; but you want my offico and you don't
want my jaw. Now I havo been P. M. here
nigh on to 10 year, and in all that time I
ain't maid my solt. Newdlum is a town
without much pop., and that pop, is of tho
ignorest sort. They don't reod nor rite woth
a cuss, and half the time when the male
come chased in ahead of the time by Injuns
and other wild varmints they are no letters
and no papers, only dry goods slch as
whiskey and tobacco. That don't pay.
But Newdlum Is hell on votin, and every
year I get orders from the State Central
Committee to fetch doun tho polls with so
many votes, and you bet I do, for I get pade
for that. So you con take your damod old
office and wipe yourhead with, for theyr not
another cuss in this neck of woods that can
read or rite worth a dam, and wouldn't have
It If he could. Agin, I'm ordered to be In
my offis during bizness hours, and I could
do that and starve I spose. True, I cood
keep the ollis in my bat, and be in it most
ot the time, if there was anything to put In
it, but tber ain't. Hoping this may meet
with your aprobaclon and find you and yur
family well, I rumane, yours trooly,
Seneca Jones.
At latest accounts Jones was the only
postmaster who had sent in his resigna
tion. Hon. William McClelland, Chairman of
the Democratic State Committee, says the
Pittsburg Post, reports the organization of
the party throughout the State as favorable
to a full vote this fall. The signs of the
times indicate that it will not be an off year
so far as Democrats are concerted, but that
they properly appreciate tho necessity for
rescuing tho State from the bands of rapa
cious politicians and remorseless Rings.

Tilt' BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
The many who voted for Hayes in the hopes
of better times must acknowledge that sales
by pherifls or constables havo not decreased.
Our own county is a sad illustration of tho
fact. The following extract from tho Shen
andoah Hcrahl, we republish as an item of
general interest to our leaders :
Ashland, July IS. Tho readers of the
Herald will no doubt bo very much surprised
when they learn that tho First National Hank
of Ashland is about going into liquidation.
The affairs of thi.s institution havo always
been managed with signal ability, but like
very many of its contemporaries, it must at
last succumb to the disjointed condition of tho
times. For pome time pa.st it has been appa
rent to the officers of the bank, that unless
something unforeseen would occur they would
have to close up nud acknowledge their ina
bility to do business, in tho face of popular
distrust.
CONDITION 01' THE HANK.
On tho 22d of June last a btatcuicnt of its
affairs was drawn up, which however, showed
that at that timo all things considered, the
bank was in a fair condition and if the times
would soon improvo all would be well, but at
a meeting of tho directors on Saturday last
they concluded that thero was no prospect of
an immediate improvement and that it was
best to go into voluntarily iquidation. The
liabilities of the bank arc something like
S70,000and wo aro informed by an officer of
tho bank that the assets are at least double
that amount.
THE DEPOSITORS.
The depositors will be paid off as rapidly
as possible, and it is thought that in sixty
days they will have received every cent of
their claims. It will tako something like ono
year before the stockholders can be 6ettlcd
with. Pending this time the bank will keep
open and transact tho business necessary to
'closing up its affairs. The assets include
1 1 , . , , . I,
bonds and mortgages, loans, and considerable
money duo from approved re&erve agents,
also agreat deal of real estate that it will tako
some time to dispose of satisfactorily.
THE CAUSE.
Mr. Robert Gorrell is President of tho
bank, and to his loss of the great cDal case
can be attributed to somo extent at least the
public distrust in the institution and its loss
of business. The deposits have been so small
that for the past six months there has been
but little discounting done. Tho verdict of
$128,000 against Mr. Gorrell is what precipi
tated matters,
THE CONTINENTAL COLLIEUV.
Apropos of the big verdict it looks as if Dr.
Prevost would experience considerable diffi
culty in getting even a portion of it. Sheriff
Hoffman, of Columbia county, created a
brcezo iu Centralia yesterday morning by levy
ing on tho Continental Colliery owned by
Robert Gorrell & Co. The miners, to whom
Mr. Gorrell owes soveral months waxes flow
around lively and naturally wero anxious to
know what it all meant. It did not take long
before they disanered that tho Sheriff was di
rected to levy on the property to tho extent
of $00,000 in consideration of a debt in favor
of John T. Audcnried of Philadelphia, a
former partner of Mr. Gorrell's. Dr. Prevost
is much exercised over this part of the pro
gramme as are the miners, and judging from
present indications thero will be no end to tho
litigations arising from this levy.
THE UNION COLLIERY.
It never rains but it pours. On Monday
morning last there was an immense crowd of
peoplo around tho Union Collier', owned by
John Anderson & Co. Coustablo Welsh was
going to sell tho lease and effects of this col
liery, iu lieu of divers executions caused to
bo issued by the employees who wanted a
couplo of mouths' wages duo thcni. There
was no sale. Sheriff Hoffman got out an in
junction provo nting tho coustablo from pro
ceeding to extremities. As soon as this was
done tbo Shcrifflevied on the property for a
debt of $9,000 in favor of Robert J. Ryou, a
former partner of Mr. Anderson's.
Quito a number of executions were issued
against tho Union colliery by tho employees,
but as soon as tho constable got possession
of them they wero bailed to court by Mr.
Anderson. Finally a number of writs wero
issued that were not bailed and hence the men
wero sanguine of getting their pay. While
the coustablo was preparing to mako a sale
the levy was made by the Sheriff on Ryou's
judgment. As soon as tho Sheriffgot through
making his lovy 'Squiro Murphy of Central
ia hied himself to Bloomsburg and laid the
matter before Judge Elwcll. His Honor de
cided that Sheriff Hoffman could havo fifteen
days to mako a sale, and if nt tho end of that
timo tbo 'property was not told constable
Welsh should go on and dispose of it iu tho
interests of tho employees. Hero tho matter
rests for tho present.
Tho men are to be commiserated for being
compelled to remain so long without their
money, but as their claims are preferred by
the laws of the State, they will finally get
what is coming to them.

dence ut the trial of the Northampton bank

Persons insured in tho mutual lire or life

think about in a recently reported decision of
tho Supremo Court, in the Ease of llueklcy
ct.al. vs. tho Columbia Iuurnnca Company.
Tho plaintitl's in error insured in the company

upon the premium note, given at the time of
insuring. Tn the full of 1872 they gavo no
tice to the agent through whom the insurance
was obtained that they did not loniur wish

and there informed that the policy should bo
null and void. In the f-pring of IS",-, anoth
er asso.sMii"iit was made, and without notice
of it whatsoever to HucUcy & Co., suit was
brought. Tim l,it named tirm upon the
trial sought to introduce evidence blowing the
notice to the iiuent as abovo desciibcd. This
the Cnmt below rilled nut, and the case went to
a higher tribunal, which lays down as apriu-
ciplo that notie. by the insured to the agent
of a mutual enmpauy of his desire to bono

such notice is notr,hotico tn tho company.
Upon tho oMier point of the caso a new trial
was granted, the Court below to charge "that
if the jury found th.it no notice of tho assess

holders in mutual insurance companies are en
titled to notice of assessments before suit
uponthuso latter can legally bo brought.

THE INTERNATIONAL REVIEW.
The "InternatlonS" for 1978 will prosent tho usual
number of articles upon religious, selentinc, art, po.
Utlcol and social subjects most occupying the nub
ile attention. It will devoto space to European mat
ters so far as they ore likely to bo IntcrestiBg to
Americans. It will conUuuo to Introduce the Gnost
popular foreign writers to compete for favorwith
the best American writers. It will aim lobe table:
strong ard rractlcal, as well as popular, la the thar!
ncti-r and Biyio of Its presentations. It la safe tb say
that no other magazine In the world can suptfly its
place In the libraries of Americans ho love to con.
slder the progress of events throughout thovtoiid.
