Tho Harrisburg correspondent of the

speaks of the Lycoming oouuty Senator as
follows :
Senator It. P. Allen appeared In his seat
this evening, after a few days' absence. The
gentleman is announced us a candidate for
Lieutenant Governor on tho Democratic
ticket by Madame Humor. It is but simple
justice to Mr. Allen to say that not a single
nun has been named for this position who
would bring greater intelligence, culture or
dignity to the position.

The Local Option Law.
,Uarrisburg, January 23. The Local Op
tlonists have tirtually given up the fight on
the bill providing for the submission of
"license;" or "no license" to the voters of the
several couuties'in February, 1879, and, in
expectation of defeat, Representative Slew

duced v bill to night which embodies the
feature of the Kansas liquor law, in which
State no license is allowed to be granted un
less the signatures of a majority of men and
women (twenty-one years old and over) in
the district in which the application be made
is obtained to a petition for license. But
this bill will share the fate of its predecessor
and the Local Qptiooists will have ,to look
to. a subsequent Legislature for redress.

Patriot; ' , .
FLIGHT OP ltEPRESENTATIVE BULLA11D.
Tlio citizens of Harrisburg, members of
the legislature and others, were not a little
surprised to learn yesterday morning that
O. F. Bullard, tho republican representa
tive from Delaware county, who was ordered
by thtjjiouso 'of representatives on Tuesday,
tp be remanded to, the Delaware county jail
for an qtTcaso already kuown tp our readers
had mado his escapo from tho scargant-at,-arms
of tho house, Mr. Gaines, in whoso cusT,
tody Dullard had been placed for several
weeks past, Mr. Gaines ksi caw his man on
Tuesday night ia the room of representative
S. Jones, of :Luierue. Ho had intended
to take Bullard to Delaware county yester
day,, and when he looked afler his charge at
half past seven o'clock yesterday morning he
i! .almost, jhiinfounded to learn that Bui
lard had quietly slipped out of tho room and
disappeared. Search was instituted at once
and in a short time a clue was found from
which it was learned that Bullard had been
noticed, purchasing a ticket at tho Philadel
phia and Reading depot for tho 5:20 train
east, user tho Lebanon Valley railroad for
Reading. Tho bergeaut'at-anus, telegraphed
to' the principal points iu tho state, giving a
dosuription of the fugitive, and the probabil
ity is ho will be captured before many days.
Bullard was confessedly guilty, Oscar
Gaines, tho ccrgeaut-at-artns, is not an ass,
imd'uVndng 'thetn they let Bullard "skip."
Are You Gaining?
If you are gaining a little every day be
content. Are jour expenses less thau your
income, so thai, though It be little, you are
yet constantly accumulating and growing
ricuer every day 7 Be content, for as con
cerns money, you are doing well. Are you
gaining knowledge every day? Though it
be little, the aggregate of the accumulation,
where no day is permitted to pass without
adding something to the stock, willbesur
prising to yourself. Solomon did not be
come tho wisest man iu the world In a mln
ute. Little by little never omitting to
learn something, even fur a single day a!
ways reading, always btudylng a little be
tween the lime of lining, up In the morning
and lying down at night this Is the way to
accumulate a full storehouse of knowledge.
Finally, are you dally gaining in character?
Be not discouraged because it be little by
little. The best men fall short of what they
ivould wish to be. It is something, ft is
much If you keep good resolutions better to
day than you did yesterday, better this year
than, you did last year. Strive to be perfect,
iut not to becomo downhearted so long as
you are approaching nearer aud nearer to
the high standard at which you aim. Little,
by little fortune are accumulated; little by
little character and reputation are achieved.
TRR RUSSO-TURCAX WAR.
The Russians have lost about 100,000 men
in 10 months; tho other material losses aro
Incalculable. The Ottamau Linpira would
loco everything If the Russians pressed them
to tho wall. Rut the English nation, with all
its lovo for Cbiistianity, and its immense be
navolcnco in tho way of cheap lliblcs for
those who cannot read them, would prefer
that Itritlsli bayonets and ironclads, for the
take of trade, should uphold Moslem power
thau sec it suppressed. Rut huglatid is too
late. The case stands now us follows :
"Tho latest authentic advices from Con
stantinople do not confirm tho statement in
the special despatch from that city to the
tkaiuiard that tho Porto has received a des
patch to tho effect that tho preliminaries of
pcaco have been signed and that tho Turkish
delegates and the Grand Duke Nicholas
wonld reach Adrlanople on Saturday. The
Porto had no advico of tho conclusion of an
tmistice, though orders woro telegraphed to
tho Turkish plenlotentlarics on Friday to
accept tho preliminaries of peace. Tho do
lay causes apprehension that the armistice
may bo accompanied by onerous conditions.
Tho Porto is now in tho peculiar condition of
having accepted terms of peace without
knowing on what conditions an armistice will
be granted. An armistice, if properly hand'
led, must make tho Russians muro than
ever masters of the situation. They are at
liberty to fix, not only tho line of eletuarca-
tiou, but the timo during which they may re
main in possession of tho territory occupied,
This will loavo their hands freo to settle de
tails according to their own views, which, in
the pcaco preliminaries, have given place to
general principles, thus : Iu the latter
witli regard to Iiulgaiia, the futuro limits of
this province do not appear to have been
specified, nor the degree to which autonomy
of Bulgaria or reforms in ltosnia and Herze
govinia are to extend. Tho tamo teem? to be
the case with regard to au increase of territo
ry for Montenegro.
ihe cession ot Roumanian uessarabia is
not mentioned, and tho question of tho Dar
danelles is reserved. Nor is anything said
about a march into or through Constantino
ple, which sectus rather to be n matter con'
uected with the suspension of arms. Mean'
time the Russians, Servians, Roumanians and
Montenegrins are pushing military operations
with great vigor about Widdin, l'risrcnd,
Lake Scutari and Silistna, and in the Marit
za Valley east of Adrianoplc. 'From all these
poiuts war bulletins are received, showing no
abatement of the offensive operations by tho
allies. Suleiman Pasha's army continues to
embark. Six Kgyptian transports have been
ordered to Kavaia to assist in the operation.
Up to Saturday evening Safvct Pasha (Act'
ing Foreign Minister durin? the absence on
tho peace commission of Server Pasha) per'
sisted in his refusal to infrom Mr. Layard
the British Ambassador.of the terms of peace,
showing that the Porte has been pledged by
Russia to keep them secret.''
Our sympathies arc with Russia.
MORE KASCALS COMINU TO GRIEF.
Ever since the fraudulent counting In of
Hayes, evidence has been accumulating to
show the monstrous rascality of the scheme,
nor can we cease to wonder at the patience
of the Democratic party which permitted it,
Tilden received a popular majority of 250,'
000, and the electoral votes of South Caroli
na, Florida and Louisiana, out of which be
was defrauded. Hayes was quick to admit
the Democratic successes in those States,
and yielded to the induction of the Demo
cratic officials into office, although their ti
tie was not bo good as that of Chamberlain
Packard, and others. Even staunch Repub
licans now see the fraud by which their can
didate was seated.
Justice, however, is reaching out her arms
to punish the instruments of this great
crime, and at last has commenced operations
In Louisiana by arresting the late Returning
Board of that State. As heretofore, th
criminals sought refuge iu the New Orleans
Custom House. Speaking of the event, the
Philadelphia Ledger, a staid Republican
journal, says:
"Mr. Returning Rsard Wells, of Louisia
na, and bis colleagues, are manifestly of the
opinion that a modern custom house build
ing in New Orleans has the same efficacy as
sanctuary for fugitive offenders that
church or other ecclesiastical edifice had in
feudal times in Europe. Summoned before
the State Courts they took refuge on Satur
day in the Custom House to escape service
of process, a United States Marshal was
called to protect them, and he was backed
by sailors from a revenue cutter. All this
was strictly according to regulation practice
in Louisiana, In former and quite recent
times, but the present incumbents of the
Federal offices In New Orleans should have
memories long and strong enough to recol
lect that that the United States Government
weut out of practice in that line' nearly a
year ago. There was a great hub-bub oyer
the matter for a few hours on Saturday, but
It was all quieted down by a brief instruc
tion from the Attorney General at Washing
ton to the United States marshal to stop all
interference with the process of State Courts,
While the affair lasted, there was a big
mountain of fuss, but the final issue was a
very ridiculous little mouse."
CONGRESS AGAINST SUBSIDIES.
THE SILVER BILL.
It is a matter for sincere congratulation
that Congress has at last put itself on record
against the granting of subeidics. Our peo
ple aro under obligations to our member,
Hon. F. D. Collins for bis favorablo vote.
Tho followiug Press Dispatch gives the views
of these measures at Washington, and the
votes of Pennsylvania members ;
Wabiiimito.n, January 28.
The House, by more than two-thirds ma
jority, passed a resolution presented by Mr.
Mr. Baker, of Indiana, declaring against tho
granting of subsidies. Tho vote was much
larger than had been expected, but too much
reliauce should not bo placed upon such a
vote. It is not an iron-bound record. Simi
lar votes have been taken in other Congresses
and the same men have subsequently, in the
same Congress, voted tho most liberal subsi
dies. They are likely to do so in this Con
gress. There were many votes given for this
resolution this afternoon which are certain to
bo given to tho various subsidies.
The vote of tho Pennsylvania members on
tho anti-subsidy resolution was as follows :
Yeas Baync, Campbell, Freeman, Over
ton. SliellenUruer. Smith and Watson Un.
publicans, and Clyuier, Collins, MaUh, Roil
ly, Stenger, Turney and Wright, Democrats.
Navs Errett. Evans. Harmcr. Kellv. Kil
linger, O'Neill and Thompson, Republicans,
awl linages, uemocrai.
Not voting Ward and White.
On tho Matthew's silver resolution tho
vote was as follows :
Yeas Bayno, Errett, Kclley, Killimrer,
Shellcnbargcr, Thompson aud White, Re
publicans, and Bridges, Clymer, Collins,
Malth, Reilly, Turney and Wright, Demo
crats. Nays Campbell,- Krans, Freeman, Mar
iner, O'Neill, Overton, Smith nnd Watson,
Republicans, and Stenger, Democrat.
Not voting, Ward and Mitchell.
Below we give the tcxi of the Matthew'
Resolution, which passed in the Senate on
Saturday by a vote of 43 yeas to 22 nays :
Jletolved, lly the Senate (the house of rep
rescntatlves concurring therein.) That all
tne bonds of she United Slates Issued or
authorized to be Issued under the said nets of
Congress hereinbefore reiterated are payable,
principal and Interest, at the option of the
government of the Muited States, In sliver
dollars of the coinage of the United States,
containing 412 grains each of standard sil
ver, and that to restore to its coinage such
liver colni as a legal tender In payment of
said bonds, principal and interest, is not In
violation of the public faith nor derogatory
of the'rlght of the public credit.
PH'K LINES.
Our nil producing counties aro much agi
tated over the proposed new pipe line which
proposes to give the producers a new outlet.
Why should they not have It, if they arc
are willing to build and pay for it? If they
can get their oil In m.irkct cheaper than
they now do by the construction of an addl
tloual line, they should have tin; privilege
of doing so. If consumers can get oil cheap
cr by it, thru are alo the gainers. It Is well
knowli that the present means of transport
tlon are In the hands of a monopoly, who
care nothing for any interest hut their own.
To oppose healthy competition Is not policy
for the people. It might as well be argued
that the North A West Branch R. R. should
not be built, because the L. A 11. Is In exis
tence und a competing line.
The argument against pipe lines, that
they will inflict injury upon parties that
have Invested money In more costly means
of transportation, is nn equally good argu
ment against sewing machines and mowing
machines. A costlier plan of making
breeches and making hay was abandoned
for cheaper, swifter, btter methods, just as
railroads superseded to u large extent the
use of turnpikes aud canals.
The usual reasons assigned for Blaine's
assault upon Massachusetts appear to be er.
roneous. some allege that it was caused by
the obtuseness of Massachusetts republicans
in falling to recognize the greatness of the
Mai no statesman at Cincinnati, and others
say that It was on account of Mulligan.
But theso arc mistakes. Blaine himself has
explained the cause of his Olympic rage. 1c
was all along of Daniel Webster and the
Ashburton treaty. For thirty years it has
generally been supposed that the treaty
negotiated by Webster with Lord Ashbur
ton was quite a diplomatic success of the
great'Massacbusetts statesman. The treaty
gave to Ma!ethe British settlement of Mad'
awaska with about seven-twelfths of the dit-
puted territory. And what was still more
important, it prevented a conflict between
the two countries over a region that was not
worth going to war about. But Blaine now
says that Maine should have had the whole
of the territory, and he reproaches the mem
ory of Webster for its loss. The country
nevertheless will rest satisfied with the set
tlement as it stands. The accession of a
few thousand Blue Noses more or less under
the Ashburton treaty would havo been of
small consequence. H'ebster concluded
that they were not worth a quarrel rnd the
wisdom and patriotism of his course have
been approved by the country. Had he
ceded the whole of Maine Blaino would prob
ably be now thundering in the parliament
of the 'Dominion at Ottawa or teaching
school in Madawaska instead of assailing the
memory of Daniel H'ebster in the senate of
the United States. It is plain that H'ebster
had the better of the trade with Ashburton
though the concession of the whole of Maine
would have been no serious loss. Vatriot,
HARRISBURO LETTER.
Legislative Correspondence.
IlAitRisBUltn, Jan. 30, 1878,
The great auxiety of the average small
politician to keep on the right bide of the
fence and avoid making a record that might
bo difficult to straddlu at some future time
was strikingly demonstrated in the House of
Representatives on last Monday evening.
Mr. Quigley, a rather sensational democrat
from Clinton county, offered a resolution ex
pressing the thanks of the Honse to Hon,
Wm. A. Wallace and lion. J. D. Cameron
for their action in voting for tho Matthews
resolutions which declare that the United
States Bonds may bej(paid in silver coin.
The dodging and squirming that toek place
when this resolution was read was disgust
ing as well as amusing. Notwithstanding
the fact that the resolution was so worded
as to compliment both a democratic and a
republican leader and Senator, more than
one-half of the members of the House were
afraid to meet the issue and either made a
hasty exit from the Hall or sat in their
seats and did no answer when their names
wero called. Only 83 men had the nerve to
put themselves on record on this all-absorbing
and important question, while 117 were
abseut or did not vote. No one accuses the
average Pennsylvania legislator of possessing
an uudue amount of brilliancy or quickness
of aprehensiou, but it does seem that it is
almost time that they, were able to havo an
Intelligent opinion upon this much ventila
ted sliver question,
On Tuesday morning the house disposed
of the case of lion. O.F.Bullard summarily
and suddenly. Tho Judiciary committee
presented a long report, the gist of which
was that there were no precedents in Eng
land or America to show that members of
Parliament, Congress or other legislative
bodies were privileged from arrest when
charged with criminal acts, and recommend
ing that Mr. Bullard he remanded to the
custody of the jailor of Delaware county,
from which he had been taken by tho order
of the House. To this the House agreed
by an almost unanimous vote, only 5 or li
votes being recorded in the negative.
Petitions praying for the re-enactment of
the Local Option Law pour into the Senate
and House every day but apparently have
no effect upon the minds of members.
Though their opinions on financial subjects
may be mitty aud wavering, it is safe to as
sert that every Senator aud every Represen
tative has an unalterable opinion upon the
subject ot local option inai opinion in nine
cases out of ten being the identical opinion
of a majority of the vpters of tho district, he
represents.
It Is perfectly plain to the unprejudiced
observer that there is not the slightest pros
pect of tho passage of a local option law by
the present Legislature. On .Monday even
lug Mr. Fullertou, of Indiana county, tried
to have a special session fixed for nextTues
day evening to consider the local option bill
but the proposition was defeated by a vole
of 08 in favor to 79 against. These (!S affir
mative votes included all the friends of the
bill and perhaps ten or twelve of Its enemies
who whljo opposing It were yet willing to
give It a courteous and respectful considers
tlon, The bill wll probably ho defeated by
a two-thirds vote.
A full month has now passed ilnce the
Legislature met and though there bas been
a good deal of work but little has been ac-
complished. It teems now, more than over,
thai much valuable time haa been lost by
not taking up the old calendar and finishing
business that wag already more than half
completed. Many bills that had advanced
to third reading on the old calendar are now
In the hands of committees and not yet re
ported or are only on first reading on the
new calendar, and much time will be taken
up In going over the same points that wero
so thoroughly discussed last winter. Coun
try members arc beginning to see their mis
take, but there Is now no remedy,
llarrlsburg Is full of oil men just now, and
tho excitement In reference to the Free Pipe
Line bill Is on the Increase, On Tuesday
evening the bill was reported in the Senate
with some important amendments providing
that the first line built to the sea board shall
havo its terminus at Philadelphia, should
the bill become a law. It was agreed that
the bill should eome np on seeond reading
In the Senate to-day (Wednesday) at three
o clock p. m. The vote this afternoon will
probably be a fair test of its strength and its
fate may be practically decided before this
letter reaches you.
It Is probable that tho committee to Inves
tlgato the Allegheny railroad riots will be
appointed this week. Though Allegheny
and other counties that suffered from these
riots are debarred from representation on
this committee no doubt seems to exist that
its composition will be perfectly satisfactory
to the counties interested.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C, Jan. 29, 1878.
Secretary Sherman's subordinatcs'in New
Orleans including J. Madison Wells and An-
dcrson, on Saturday sought refuge in tho
United States Custom House from tho offen
ded justice of the Stato of Louisiana. It ii
fitting that tho Custom Houses, the homcwf
fraud and peculation, should open their doors
to tho protection of such scoundrels as tho
members of tho Louisiana Returning Board.
The wonder is that the reform administration
of Mr. Hayes, which is tho creation of those
criminals,, did not protect them. It will be
strange if tho Ncwzcalander, who comes to
muso on the ruins of all countries, docs not
find in tho history of Hayes and the Prcsi
dency and the Louisiana Returning Board of
1870 the most astonishing figures of all time,
Looked at in any way there is nothing but
fraud in all the proceedings from Nov. 8,
1870, from the incredible flight of conspira
tors to tho shelter of a United States Custom
House and their surrender by an administra'
ttou which they created.
ilicre is still doubt as to tbo passage
through tho Senate by a two-thirds vote, of
the Silver Bill. It is the better opinion, per
haps, that the necessary votes to carry the
measure through, over a veto, will not bo
forthcoming
To-day and, hereafter the National Bank
will receive subscriptions for the 4 per cent,
Government bonds, in sums of $50 and up
wards, a slight deduction from par being
made on subscriptions of over $1,000.
There is the germ of reform in the House
Military Committee's proposition to cut down
tho pay of army officers., ono and one-quarter
millions of dollars, and increase, the pay of
non-commissioned officers. We havo an of
ficer, with an avcrago salary of say $2,50Q
per year, to seven or eight enlisted men
whose united pay amount to less than $1,500
per year. Hero is certainly room for reform
, irancis Murphy, tho tempcranco advocate,
is here and has met with a warm reception,
He comes at an auspicious time, as our local
societies already have the work well started.
One of Washington's noted men died on
Saturday. Fred. D. Stuart first came bcfoie
the country in connection with the famous
Wilkc's exploring expedition to the Antartic
Ocean in which he occupied a position of rc
sponsiblity and the narrative of which he
helped to write. During the late war ho was
an officer iu the Navy, and sinco 1805 ho
has been prominent in Odd Fellowship
and in other secret and benevolent societies,
and as a friend ami i'ramcr of reforms in the
common school system. Ho lived surround
ed by friends and without an enemy, and died
in peace.
It is evident that the fight for a subsidy
for 'thoYTexas Pacific Railroad is about to
commence in earnest. Tom. Scott, a remark
ably ablo man,-and the head and front of the
movement, has unfortunately for him, involv
ed himself in a quarrel with other railroad
men, and there is every indication now of a
fight which will prevent aid to any road.
Perhaps this is not an unmixed evil to the
Southwestern country, for extending business
will ultimately complete the road, and the
defeat of this subsidy project will make it all
the easier to get through Congress a liberal
appropriation for tho Mississippi levees and
other strictly legitimate improvements in that
section.

Delivered From Death.
HOW A MAN DIED AND THEN CAMP. TO LIFE
AGAIN VKErAIUNQ TUU BODY 10 R Till!
OltAVE AN Al'FKtallTEII WATCHER
SAVED. Tho Philadelphia Preti fit' Tuesday says
that there transpired on Monday iu tho small
two story frame house, No. 123 Sl Mary's
Street, an event which, while not without a
parallel, is yet so ftrange and wonderful as to
merit more than passing notice. Cases of
suspended animation havo been a fruitful
theme for the romancists, and many a tan
gled story and weird plot has been woven out
of apparent death, but subsequent and unex
pected recovery. But while many well au
thenticated cases are to be found chonicled
in medical works, one rarely 'falls to lho lot
of the newspaper reporter to full of thrilling
flctails as that, which tbo I'rttt is enabled to
give (his morning.- On iast Sunday a week
the congregation worshipping in tho old
Swede's church', on Swanson street, wero
alarmed by the sudden fall of one of their
pumbcr, and it was soon learned by those
present that a man named Schrack had been
taken quite ill. Some of his friends removed
tho prostrate, man to the open air, whero he
revived slightly, and was then carried tolas
home tho houto abovo mentioned. Sohraclc
Was at oneo placed iu bed, and Dr. Jones, of
Washington avenue, called to attend him. It
was found that tho natient wniimfttrinf from
hemorrhage, but no immediate danger was
apprehended. During tho past week Shrack
apparently progressed slowly towards complete
convalescence, and when Dr. Cantrell, anoth
er physician who attended him, visited tho
hou.-o ou Sunday afternoon last, 'hero had
been apparently no unfavorable cbango ; and
when tho doctor departed thero was every
reason to beleivu" thut In a few days tho pa
tient' would bo completely restored to health.
It was doomed ndvNablo by hi.s'wife, Jiowev
er, that her sick husband be carefully watch
ed, and accordingly a friend of tho family
agreed to sit up on Sunday night, and Until
Monday morning dawned. Through the cars
Her part of Ihe night Shrack slept well, and
when bo awakened' spoke cheerfully of his
freedom from bodily suffering. About two
o'clock yesterday morning the watcher was
alarmod by a sudden change which became
observable in the face of the sick man. The'
face assumed a yellowish hue, the e tre ml
ties becatne(cold and the eyes fixed and glas
sy. Thcra could be no doubt but that the
great chango was about to take place, and
tho watcher calling the wife of tho dyng
man, told her to prepare for the worst, which
he wag afraid had come.- Shrack'g condition
betrayed no change until about 4 o'clock,
when at once the muscles became rigid, the
chin dropiKM, and the weeping wife was led
from tho bed, on which was all that remained
of her husband. When the neighbors awoke
yesterday morning tho band of craiie tied on
tho door told tho story that Shtack was dead
and tho disconsolate wife was soon surround
ed by sympathizing friends. In tho mean
lime a man was engaged to take charge of
the body, tho blinds were let down, aud the
remains left in tho silence and solitude of tho
room whero the great chango had taken
place. Shortly beloro 8 o'olock tho body was
undressed, and tho work of preparing it for
tho habiliincuts of the grave begun. Sud
denly as tho body w! being moved, soniO'
thing which sounded liko a muffled groan
was heard J tho eyes of tho supposed corpse
opened, tho hands moved feobly and tho dead
had come to life 1 With a yell tho attend'
ant rushed from the room and told his story
to tho amazed auditors. The 'weeping wifo
and her friends and iclativcs crowded into
the room and found that the man whom they
had mourned as dead was really risen again
as if from the grave. Restoratives were ap.
plied, physician! summoned, and before
noon Shrack was so far restored that ho bids
well to ultimately recover.
Dr Cantrell, who visited hira shortly after
hts deliverance from death, says this slngu
case is one of spasms of tho heart. But tho
most wonderful part of this strange story is
the experience of Shrack, a! related by him
self: "I was," ho says, "in heaven, and
had no wish to return. I cannot describe
my ecstatic visions they were not of thi
world. I was, however, conscious that I had
one foot on earth and dimly aware of what
was going on around me, but I had no fear
that I should be buried alive no wish but
to pass the brief spaco which separated me
from tho world of which I had seen the glo
rles." Shraok is quite an Intelligent man
and tells nf his wonderful experiences with
out hesitation. His family and friends are,
however, reticent pn the subject, fearing to
increase the alreadv great excitement which
has been manil'e-ted in the immediate
vicinity of the huuse. Tho case, however,
is one which, iewed either fiom a medical
or n psycolngieal standpoint, seems well
worthy of f.iither inVHstiulion by scientific

has at last been brought before the Courts
nnd argument has been b"gun. The case 1
likely to prove one of interest nnd perhaps
importance, nn account of the questions
rnied by demurrer. Tho claim of the Go
vernmeut is fr luxes duo iu all the years
from lSii-J to IfiTO, and amounts, with inter
et, to about Sl.'iD.doO. Tne demurrer to the
claim fjr tho taxes lor lib'l lias been SUS'
tained by Judge DSatchford, and argument-
on the other claims has been begun. Mr,
Tilden's council contends as to these claims,
that the act of the assessors, in fixing or ac
cepting the amount of taxable income, par
took of the character of n judicial decision
binding on tbo Government and not subject
to review. The attorneys for the Govern
ment hold, on the other hand, that the act
of the assessors was purely ministerial, nnd
that the errors made by them are open to
review in the Courts. The decision of this
disputed question may effect other claims be'
sides those made under the Income Tax
laws.
