any cheaper than anybody else, they certainly
ought not to be required to pay more than an
Individual would pay. Ko man could supf ly

thirty assistants, and have a profit left. As the

have a small profit left. On square business

IMPORTANT TO DltUGOISTS.
A JCD1CAL DECISION TDAT THBT ARK LIABLE TO PAT
LICENSE AS VENDERS OF I-ATENT MEDICINES.
For some time Druggists in diflerent parts of
the slate have been agitating the question as to
their liability to pay a license as vendeis of pat
ent medicines. The discussion has culminated
in the druggists ofl'ottsville carrying the qui
tion to the courts. On Monday Judge Pershing
of Schuylk-ll county, delivered tho following
opinion on the subject.
"Fifteen persons who were returne I by the
mercantile appraiser 'as liable to pay a license
as venders of patent medicines of five dollars
each, have jointly appealed from his decision lo
the court of common pleas. His assessment
was made in pursuance of the act or loth of
April, 1849, Purd. Dig., 1129, which accepts
"regular apothecaries for the sale of timple
medicines, the prescriptions of physicians and
the compounds of Ihe ph armacopia, and th
several dispensatories of the United Stales.''
The distinction between Ihe apothecary and a
diuggist need not be adverted to, as the mer
cantile appraiser has agiced thai the apptlanls
come within ihe recited exception. Their ap
plication lo be released from Ihe payment of
this license fee was refused by Ihe appraiser
This appeal is expressly based on the act o f
1845, Purdon's Digest, 4157.
It is to bo observed that the act under whicl
ihe assessment requires the payment of a license
for the sale of pa lent medicines in addlticn to
that prescribed for tho sale of drugs and mc-il
iceno by Ihe act of 1830, Purd Dig.. 4,1,55
and graduates the amount of the licent-e fee by
the amount of the sales made by the ven lor.
The appraiser in the rase befoie us has in each
instance assessed the 1 owcsl lictnse recognized
in the act of assembly. The plain language of
the act of IS 15 has referred to Ihe amount of
the assessment, and affords an opportunity
appealing to the court when a party regards Ihe
amount of license as excessive. This construes
tion seems to have been placed on the seclion
quoted in Simpson vs. Cain , referral to in note
A, Purd. Dig. 1 153, This view of the statute
leaves the appellants nothing to appeal from
The question of their liability lo pay this
license at all, we think cannot be raised in the
shape in which Ibis pioceeding has ben pre
sented. If it could, the point was decided by
the common pleas of Luzerne county, Com. vs
Fuller, 4 Luz.Leg. Ob. 225, where it was held
that an apothecary who sells patent medicines
is liable to the additional tax imposed by the
act of April 10, 1S49.
Our alien tion has been called to what pur
ports to be a decision of the court of common
pleas of Allegheny county, made in 1879,where
it was said "that the act ot 1830, under which
the tax claimed was assessed, had been re
pealed by the act of 1853, and even if it had
not been there was no power under Ihe act to
collect the tax."
The controversy there cnine Into court after
the county treasurer had brought .suits against
the delinquents on eleven separate appeals
from the decisions against them of Ihe demurrer
before whom suils were Instituted. The report
is taken from a newspaper, and if lhat court
really did hold, that there was no iower under
the act referred to collect tho tax, it is difficult
to understand the ground for such a ruling, Ko
reference appears to have been made to the act
of 11 th of April , 1802, the fifth section of which
gives explicit directions lo tvery cily and
county treasurer of all licences duly returned to
him by the mercantile appraisers." After an
elimination of the pamphlet laws of 1853 we
have been unablo to find tho act of 1850, refer
red to. And now Juno 30, 1879, Ihe appeal is
dhsniissed at the costs of the appellants."

The Important event of Ihe past week was

sary address wss detlvt-ra! In Academy Hsll,
byU-v. W. K. Krebs eif llloomsbutg. The
suhjee.1 of the address wis "1'repiMtlon for
wotk," The address wss excellent an 1 made a
favorable Impression on all present.
On 1-riday morning at 10 A, M, a reunion of
friends and sludenls of the Academy took
place.
At 11 A. M. the visitors assembled In the
Hall lo listen to short addresses from the friends
present. After a few words from the I'rlncb
psl.ltev.O.K.Canfitld, Rev. W. K. Krebs
made a stirring little speech which 'pleased all
present. He was followed by (be Rev. Mr.
Clees who gave us a spicy address, containing
some allusions to the chickens etc., which he
hoped would soon follow. After a few wards
from Ihe Rev. Mr. Houlz and Mr. W H. Har
rison Ihe audience adjourned to the grove, where
they found liberal preparation fur their lefresln
inent. About four hundred partook of the good
Ihtngs, which the ladies of Orangevllle had pre
pared. At 2 r, M, we again assembled In Ihe Hall lo
listen to the "Exercises of Ihe Graduating class
and other sludenls-,' After a few essays and a
short dialogue, the Gradnatlng speeches were
dellvereel,
Latin Salutatory by Mark F. Mendenhall
was finely written aad displayed a good knowl
edge oftlio Latin language.
This was followeel by an oration by J. U,
Mendenhall, on "Perseverance." He called our
attention to the fact that nothing worthy of
nolo had ever been accomplished without
perseverance. He then brought .up numerous
instances of great perseverance in ancient and
modern limes. After urging all to renewed
perseverance, he closed by a quotation from
Longfellow's "Psalm of Life."
Wm, It. Campbell followed with an oration on
"The Crime of Ignorance-" He held that I twas
God's will that no one should live in Ignorance
and therefore! It was certainly a crime to do so.
He also showed that whereas the advantages for
education now, were so much in advance of
those of former days that therefore the crime
of ignorance now was greater than then. After
citing examples from Hi. lory, to prove lhat
Ignorsnce was a crime, and by au exhortation
lo all lo improve the advantages of education
which were ollered. to them, that they might
not be guilty ofthe crime of Ignorance.
Next was an oral ion by James M. Fritz, on
"Singleness of Purpose." By "Singleness of
Purpose." was meant that quality which
prompts one to continued effort, la whatever
may be his life work ; the speaker proved lo us
by examples from life that whatever had been
undertaken with this "Singleness of Purpose.'i
had always been successful. He also showed
us that It was the duly of every oiie lo have
some object In life ; and having that object lo
press steadily on, overcoming alt obstacles, to
the accomplishment of it.
After this came an Essay entitled "Culture
for gills and the Valedictory by Miss Lillie A'
Megargell. These .were finally written and
lisplayed a great deal of talent. The right of
omen to a higher education was strongly ad.
vocated, and the advantages resulting there1
from were plainly shown. The Essay and Val
edictory were delivered in a clear tone reaching
to every part of the Hall,and the pleasing mod
est appearance of Ihe young lady made a good
mpression on the Audience.
The Principal followed with a short address.
and presented the Diplomas to the members of
:ie Graduating class.
After this came the presenting of prizes.
Miss Lillie A. Megargell received a prize of
wo volumes of Dr. Fields travels round
the woild. This was awarded by Mrs. Can-
field for proficiency in-sludy. Tilghman Laufer
received a priz) of $5 in gold awarded by Prof.

Prof. Canfield to the best Students in Latin and
German in the middle class was divided between

A prize of 55 in gold to the best students in the
sciences was awarded uy rroi. Harrison eo

In the evening an Exhibition was held which
was very well attended, some 000 being present.

cess.

Religious Murderers.
From thuo immemorial it has been com
mon for persons under benteuco of death to
becomo very religious before tho arrival of
tho day of execution. The exceptions to
this rule tho number of persons who have
died tcoffers have been comparatively few.
Iudecd, this has been au argument fre
quently made use of in favor of capital pun
ishment. It has becu defended as a most
efficient means of effecting the conversion
aud final ralvatiou of the most abandoned and
the uiot hardened.
It lias happened, singularly enough, that
of lato the religious, character of murderers
has appeared at an earlier period in their his
toiy. Thus in tho fatal letter of Covert Beu
nett to Mrs. Smith, written in jail tho let
ter which convicted them both thero are
devout and rcvercut references to tho Di
vine protection on which slio is assured they
may depend.
Tho mulatto Cox was noted as a religious
pcrsou, and was actually attending church
when arrested in Boston. Ho professes
great dislike of rough and profano compa
uy.
Tho caso of Ililairo Latrimouillc, the
French Canadian, just convicted at Albany of
tho cruel murder of a maiden lady for the
purposo of robbery, furnishes another illus
tration iu point. At a house whero Lutri
mouillc spent a night, after tho murder, he
was observed at Ins evening and morning do
votious.
What do all these things provo ?
They gu to show that thero may bo a good
deal oi emotional piety without any fixed am
restraining principle. They do not mako at
all against true religion, with which all crime
Is wholly incompatible. A, Y, Sim.
