United Stales Senator Jlnltliow II.
Carpenter, of AViseoiiHin. died at liis
homo in Wasliinirton on Tlunnday of
last week, lie, had not boon in liis nlaco
in the Kounto for several weeks. Ho was
n man of Treat ability and o na
tional reputation.
It is not our desire to find fault witl
any one, nor to oast hliitito upon auv
private or publio individual, but our plain
duty ns journalists lequlrcs us to look af
ter tho interests of tho tax payers of tho
county, and in tho performance of that
duty wo attain ask tho County Treasure
to givo to the publio an explanation of that
tax salo transaction with tho Commis
sioners. Our questions of two weeks ago
have not been answered, though wo hav
been told that tho wholo matter will bo
fully explained at tho proper time. "Who
is tho proper tlino it not now ' If the
tiling was all right nnd done to protect
tho interests ot tho county why delay
lontrer in satisfying tho people of the
fact ? To hesitate, is to throw suspicion
on the oflicers. and it is n duty that they
owo themselves, to cast off suspicion by
making a lull statement ot tho case.
Wo do not believe that there was
dishonest intentipn on tho part, of any of
tho otliccrs, but wo do believe fiom our
present knowledge of tho facts, that
mistake has boon mivlo soniowhere,. and
that tho county treasury has paid out
n much lamer sum of money than it
outrht to have paid, for real estate,
Tlioimli the county is said to have pur
chased moro than one hundred tracts of
land at Treasurer's sale, there is no rec
ord on tho books.of anvsuch transaction.
The law clearly ppints out tho duty of
iliii Commissioners in such cases as loi
lows:
"If any tract of unseated land, hereaf
ter to bo sold -Jor taxes, uuo m, una mm.-,
or wnton shall liuruaf icr bo lmposed,shall
not have bidden for" it a sum equal to
tho whole amount ol taxes ior which it
shall havo been advertised, and the costs
accrued, then in that case, it shall bo tho
duty of tho Commissioners of tho proper
county, or any ot them, to bid olt tn
Hanuyind a deed shall thereupon bo made
by tho Treasurer to tho Commissioner
1 for tho timo being, and to llicir.success-
ors in olhee, to and lor tho uo ol tl
proper county ; and it shall bo tho duty
of tho Commissioners to provide a book.
wherein shall bo entered tlio unmoor 11
person as whoso estate the Bamo shall
havo been sold, tho quantity ot laud, and
tho amount ot taxes it was sold lor, nn
every such tract of land shall not there
after, so long as tho same shall remain
tho property or tho county bo charged
tho duplicato of tho proper collector; but
ior liveyears next loiiowing sucn sale.
if it shall so long remain unredeemed,tho
Commissioners shall, in separato columns
in tho samo book,chargo every such tract
of land with reasonable county and roai
tax, according to tho quality of tho sa'u
land, not exceeding in any caso tho sum
or t-lx dollars lor every hundred acres.
By an act of March 111 1817 it is mado
tltscreUovart with tho Commissioners,
what lands they will purchase in, for tl
nso of the county. Did the Commission
ners exercise a wise discretion in tl
wholesale purchase of all tho tracts" su
vertiseu that wcro not bought by any
body else? If so, thoy performed the
duty. If uot,they aro answerable to tli
people whose servants thoy are.
Wo ask, again, how is the amount of
S3.C2, the sum paid tho treasurer for
each deed, mado upt Tho Jaw gives
mm i:;.b:j as his lees m ordinary cases,
and ono dollar for entering tho aeknowf
odgrnent ot tho deed, hut wo do not un
dcratand tho law to moan that tho conntv
shall pay ono dollar On each tract for tho
t'utentig of deeds mane to itself. If wo
urn correct, tho Treasurer hns received at
least 10C moro than ho was entitled to
If wc nro wrong wo should like to know
tinner wuat law mat extra dollar was
paid. If it is all right, tiiero is no dif
jiciuiy in explaining ir. ji moro is any
thing wrong, tho ullicers interested
should proceed at onco to correct tho er-

Patrick's oriihanago in Ilydo l'ark. Tlio
building is situated at tho corner of Jack
son street and Lincoln avenue, about n
mile from tho centro of tho city. It is
occupied by a number of Sisters of Char
ity, and under their charge wcro forty
children whoso ages wero from six to
twelve years. The boys and girls oc
cupied separato dormitories on tho ord
door. - At half past eight o'clock this
'evening ono of tlio Sisters escorted tho
children to their rooms mill locked tho
door for tho night. Hho then started to
descend tho stairs. Whou sho reached
the second story sho discovered mnoko
issuing from ono tf tho rooms. Opening
tho doors nIio whs driven' back by h
cloud of sinoko. Firo was raging along
tho coiling and taking its way to tho up
per floor. Tho Sister darted upstairs and
.round tho girls' -room full of smoke. Shu
took tho gills to tho lower floor and
started back to reach the boys' dormitory.
Tho biuoko was pouring into tliu hall
way in blinding clouds, and when about
half way up the stairs tho Sister met u
stranger. Sho mado an effort to pass
him, but ho refused to allow her to pro
ceed, saying that tho boys had been res
cued and that it would bo dangerous for
lier to go for them. Sho reluctantly
went back. An alarm given soon after
tho tiro broko out, brought four tiro com

when tho firemen frot to work. Thoy
woro informed of the belief among tho
fJlsters that some of tho childreu wero

Mr. Tilden's
Leadership and
ltetlrement.
llr. Tilden's
Tho present condition of the Demo
cratic party in tho State of Now York
shows how advantngcoiiH tho abandon,
mont of Mr. Tilden's leadership and Mr.
Tilden's policy has been. The position
of our party as a force and a power in
public, affairs has sadly changed since
J 871. Then it controlled tho Jndicary,
tho State administration, jmd the J,gis
lature. In J 881 it controls nothing. In
1871 it was so strong that it elected
Francis Kernan United States Senator,
tliim wresting from tho tcnacions grasp
of tho livpublican maohino a Represen
tative in the National Senate. In 1881
ns a powerless minority it witnesses the
election of u Republican, and a Tom
Piatt nt that, as his successor. Tho ex
ecutive, with tho whole Stato adminis
tration, tho Judiciary and tho Legisla
ture, havo all been handed over to tho
Bejiublican party by the men who wcro
jealous of ?fr. Tilden's success as n lea
der and who supplopted him. They
lmvo gintihed their, own BUtmosities.
Thoy havo retired tho ablest leader and
tho wisest political manager the ucrao
cracy has had for years, the only one, in
fact, who could defeat Conklingt and
Willi him Ituva retired the wholo par
ty from every position of power anf em
olument in the State. The result- is any
thing but satisfactory to a Democrat who
loves tho old party and delights in its
success. Tho warmest friends ot Mr.
Tildon could not desire for his leader
ship and his policy a more telling vindi
cation than that afforded by the present
unfortuuuto position of tho party that ho
once made ho iinjtpd and mviiicibio.

Tho few citizens who may not bo hero

wltnt has been dono nnd what is to bo
done in tho wny of celebrating tho day.
Tlio decorations will bo chlcliy on I'cuu-
svlvanla avenue, along which tho pro

beautifully and elnborntely adorned by
Nntlonnl flags will be suspended over tho
intersecting streets being nn arch lor

in tho way of ornamentation. Houses
and business places along tho Avenuo
will geucrnllv.be decorated. There will be
20,000 men nt least In tho proccssion.and
General Sherman is Chief Marshall. Tho
ilisnluv of fire works ot night will bo
vorv extensive, expensive nnd beautiful.
Hut tho marvel ot tho occasion will uo
tho Inauguration Ball. Eight thousand
tickets will bo sold, nnd that number can
hnd ninnlo accommodation in tho ball
building. Thcro nro sixteen rooms in
which dancing can tnko place, all so con
nected, or rather so opening into each
other through wide spaces, that tho mil
sic, from its singlo location, will answer
tor all the hundreds-ol couples who may
nt tho satuo timo ho on tho floor. The
decorations hero aro superb. Tho only
danger that threatens tho success of tho
ball is Hint the conunilteo may yield at
tho last moment and sell soveral thous
and moro tickets than tho limit now
fixed.
Already arrivals hero aro very nuiiicr
ous. At tho larger hotels mere are uauy
announced guests from every State nnd
Territory except Oregon and Washing
ton, lint tho grand rush will be, of
course, on Thursday. The most liberal
estimate hcreloforo mndo as to numbers
will probably bo surpassed.
Tho situation of affairs in Con
gross to-day indicates an extra session,
though some of those Hepublicans who
for n week havo been obstructing busi
ne3S showed signs of repentance this af
ternoon. Jl hero-lias not been in years so
much ugly determination shown in Con
gross to gain party ends by obstructing
important publio business as by tho He
publicans during this session. Mr. Frye
usually cool headed, warned his party
friends last week that they could not at
ford to take this course, but bo has since
suffered hnnsel, to qo carried along witl
tho current.
President-elect Garfield arrived this
morning. No further intimations as to
tho Cabinet aro given, nor does any one
seem to havo been informed of the top
ics to bo treated in tho Inaugural mes
snge. In fact, tho Washington publio is
as ignorant to-day of coming events
connected with tho administration as it
was a month ago.

in Connecticut who cured long-standing
diseases by prayer. A letter was sent
to this lady aud an answer received from
tho worker ol miracles appointing th
day and hour when Lillio and her friends
should engage in prayer lor her restora

Mr. Mitchnel Davitt.tho Land Lcnguo
prisoner, is a Komnn Uatholio and tho
son of a tenant farmer, nnd was born at
Strnhl, near Castlebar, pi tho county of
Mayo, in tho year 3848. liis father was
evicted in 1851, nnd tho family went to
reside in England. They settled in L,an
conshire, where thoy remained for twen-
ty-llvo years. Michael Davitt went to
work In a oetton mill at Haslingden,
nenr Manchester, at tho ngo of nine, and
ho was a year nt that labor when his
ight arm got crushed by tho mill mn-
ihlnery, ncpcssitatiiifj jts njnmjtatjon at
ho shoulder. For nvo years lifter ho at
tended tho Wcsleynn school in Haslingden
and at fifteen got employment as a letter
carrier and bookkeeper,
FlU John Porter'scaso has beenngniu
postponed, and it the veterans heuit is
not already sick by hope deferred his pa
tlonco is equal to his intrepidity, and
that U saying as much as the best soldier
that ever set a squadron in tho red rankr
of war could desire.
Taxing Luxuries of tho It tela Instead of 'c-
crssltles of tlio l'oor,
At n meeting of tho Tenth ward Dctn-
ocrntloABSoclntion,in Brooklyn, Tuesday
n letter from Mr. Willinm Mnrshall, tho
wealthy cordage manufacturer of Brook
lyn, to tho president of the association,
wns read, in which Mr. JMurshnll says :
"It is encouraging to seo tho Demo
cratic members of Congress taking tlio
s. nnd thoy have on tho tariff question.
Wo want free trndd in tho purchase of
ships and tlio duties taken oft of nil inn-
lerial used in tho sailing nnd construc
tion of ships. Tlio business of tho na
tion is increasing in imports nnd exports;
but while this is tlio ease, wo havo lost
our portion of tho carrying trado of tho
world, and this is becauso a high tariff
increased tho cost of construction, sup
plying nnd manning our vessels. Tho
proof of this is tlint tho low tariff of MO
built up our commerce, and tlio high
tnriff ol '01 destroyed it. In contrast to
this aro thofrco navigation laws of Great
lirituln, which has enabled it to tako all
our portion ol(tho carrying trado and has
driven our commerce from tlio scatf. I
would ndvocato tho highest duties possi
ble on luxuries, wine, tobacco, Bilks,laces
ivc, hut let tho nceessavics of Ii to come
free,thnt tho cost of living maybe cheap
ened for tlio working people.

lloiisi:. Among tho items in tho sundry
civil appropriation bill just reported is
ono of S!i0,000 for now furniture for the
Whito House, tho committee thinking
it proper that General Garfield should
have a now outfit. It is a custom to
mako similar appropriations nt the be
ginning of each administration, ns the
wear and tear upon the furniture at olh
