Conversations vrlito Great Men.
A custom has bcn gaining gronnd for
ome years which, it seems to u, would
bo "more honored in the breach than the
observance." A correspondent of a city
dally, with an ubundanee of leisure on hit
hands, nets himself down before Home
leading ixjlitician, and having obtained
leave to interrogate him on the moat im
portant ipgocs of the day, ventilates his
opinions in the organ for which he is a
contributor.
This process of ascertaining and pub
Hiking conversations of distinguished men
acquired its growth during the rule of
1 'resident Lincoln, and scarcely a week
passed without some of these persistent
publishers reaching the sanctum Kinctorum
of the President, and obtaining the views
of the great joker for general circulation.
Since his demise the same thing has
been indulged in with regard to President
Johnson, and kept up with wonderful per
tinacity to the present time. More re
cently these itinerant enlighteners of the
public mind are Hitting all over the coun
try, and collecting the opinions of every
Jtadical who has any opinions for the pub
lic eye.
Not long einea Thaddeus Stevens was
called upon, and the At ate of health of the
Father of the Radicals was such that his
sayings had almost the force of death-bed
coaftsMons. The result of tho visit to
the great Amalgamator was the publica
tion of a column of trash that nobody be-
Jicved, interspersed with an occasional fact
. thatIiev--wJioIe world knew as well as
Thad. His rhapscJ jibout negro equali
ty and confiscation, and all that, found no
response in the public mind, iVbUe his as
6rtion that Iladical corruption was ruln
' ing the country and that Governor Geary
was a great failure, was just as well un
derstood without the addition of Lis testi
mony. In like manner Wendell Phillips, Ben.
Butler, and . tuer secondary Radical lights,
have contributed to the general political
gossip of the day. Thus far, however,
while much that was silly and purile got
before the public, there was nothing real
ly offensive to morality and decency.
Hut one of this travelling fraternity
nut ticeda call upon old Hon.' Wade, who
is a .profane old curse, and at a very in
. oppertune time, too on the heels of tht
great - i -O W An J . we
lav old lien. Wade's conversation, with
every oath recorded with due emphasis,
paraded In the papers of th day. The
conversation, without the expletives, would
fill an ordinary newspaper column, but
the oaths make ifnearly one half longer.
Old Hon. reiterates his love for the ne
yo, and swears most lustily that we must
stand by the negro as ho has stood by us,
while he acknowledges that weak-kneed
f oliiicians will go back on the rads. since
the ieac:l n in public sentiment.
He is terribly down on the non-committal
course of, General Grant ; says that he
even he called upon Grant for the very
furpoae of drawing him out,- but that
when he talked politics Grant talked horse,
and therefore he considered U, S. a better
horseman than politician. He winds up
n lorg rigmartie by .attacking, without
gloves, Mrs. Lincoln, 'alleging that she par
Joined largely Tram "tho White House, and
lhat, from the multitude of boxes which
he removed clandestinely from the Pres
idential mansion, he gloried in the belief
that the was going to open a tavern in the
West.
Taking the whole conversation, it is
but charitable to the gentleman from Ohio
to suppose that it was an after dinner
conversation, and that the distinguished
fientloman was (to use a Hibernicism,)
oUr his accustomed post prandial pota
lions.
Hut we did not intend, in the outset, so
much to retail these "sayings" as to pro
test against the practice, and to hope that
if we must have tkem, we shall hereafter
get them clear of profanity and obscenity.
Our Enormous) Taxes.
It has been demonstrated beyond a
t doubt, by the most accurate statistics,
that no peopJa upon the face of the earth
are burdened to tie same extent by taxa
lien as are the people pf the United States
at the present time, notwithstanding the
fact that our country enjoys the blessings
of peace throughout its entire borders.
The taxes levied and collected by the
general government alone, during the year
1866, reached the enormous sum of five
hundred and sixty million dollars. Add
to this amount the State, county, asd
other taxes to which we are subject, and
it is fair to estimate tLat not less than one
thousand million dollars are annually taken
from tho pockets of the tax-payers to
maintain the miserable boon of a bad gov
ei ninontvith-which tho nation is unfor
tunately cursed in our day andencratlon
C Everything : we eat, drink and wear:
wjererytbin required hj tWjaily wants of
national government, while the State and
municipal governments have to be main
tained at a sacrifice of treasure never be
fore known, perhaps, in the history of so
ciety. Was this immense outlay necessa
ry to the legitimate purposes of a popular
system of government, it would not be felt
to the same extent as an incubus upon the
energies and incomes of a submissive peo
ple, but when we pre a great portion of
the revenue squandered for no other pur
pose than to maintain the ascendancy of a
party which has outraged every principle
of free government, and still seeks to crush
out the last vestige of liberty and rear in
its stead negro supremacy and Congres
sional despotism, it is little wonder indeed
that the people cry out against the oner
ous burdeni that have been foreed upon
them.
Hut the sum totals given above do not
present the worst aspect of the case. As
the New York Jlerald justly remarks, the
figures show only what was paid in, only
what found its way to the government
coffers, and that may have been the small
er part of what was taken from the people.
Tax-gatherers with us are corrupt beyond
all possible precedent Popular opinion
hardly makes the distinction between a
revenue officer and a thief. Stealing in
place is so common, so general, it is so
much a recngnized fact that this class of
functionary seeks position only to acquire
a sudden fortune, that no one of them any
longer feels called upon to deny it through
any suppesed necessity to seem honest.
From remote times the tax-gatherer was
a scoundrel, publicans were robbers and
the friends of robbers, and the Christian
text classes "the publican and the tax
gatherer" as one in repute and perform
ance ; and those old fellows stole a mcxs
ure of cummin, may be, or a skin of wine,
Perhaps some fellow 'of unusual boldness
here and there may have taken a talent
of silver. What pigmies of plunder!
Hundreds -of thousands of dollars make
the small dust in the balance of our reve
nue collectors, and a place is hardly worth
the intrigues by which it is gained if it
docs not promise a round million above all
contingencies for a term.
REL.IQUES.
We have on our table before us a batch
of ancient papers which has been handed
us by a friend. They show how tilings
were done "forty years ago," and possess
interest to the politician and the literaleur.
First in' order is the "United States
Telegraph," with its motto "Power is al
ways stealing from the many to the few,"
by Duff Green, dated Washington ity,
Dec 2G. 1827. Ic was a daily paper,
full of political matter and "nothing else,"
bristling up for the campaign of 1828, and
ventilating very freely tho alleged "bargain
and sale" between John Quincy Adams
and Henry Clay. Another number of the
same paper contains an article of more
than a page, abusive of Daniel Webster.
Then we have the "Washington Ga
zette," of Feb. 27, 1824, a Federal organ,
and bitterly hostile to the claims of Gen.
Jackson to tho Presidency. It .argues
strongly against the danger of entrusting
the civil administration of our government
to a "military chieftain."
Next is John Hians "Democratic Prcs,"
published in Philadelphia, bearing date
January 4th, 1828. It is anti-Jackson
and very spicy in its editorials, evincing
tLfi biting sarcasm characteristic of its
editor.
And lastly, :be "Bedford Gazette" of
the same date, aad about half the size
it has since attained uade? PUf friend My
ers. It was published by Charles Mc
DowelLT Its contents are mora furcat
ing locally than any of the others. 2
gives our Legislative proceedings John
Mathews representing Cambria county.
It contains tho Carrier's New Year's
Address about as bad poetry as we have
ever seen. The sheet before us is entirely
guiltless of editorial.
So much for the "light of other days."

ealy part of the present week a young
married couple, more blessed with honesty
and industry than with worldly wealth',

city their small capital was stolen from
them by some graceless scamp, and they
were compelled to obtain employment at

dininpj-room servant at the Pacific House,
and the husband as porter at one of our
wholesale establishments. On Wednes

Extraordinary Bank Robbert. For
some time past Messrs. Pettis & Ingalls, of
Tremont, Tazewell ccunty, have been do
ing a banking business, and have become
the depositories of the surrounding business
men and farmers. They had established
themselves in a snug banking house with
a fire-proof vault, and deemed that they
were safe from the element or burglars.
Within the vault was a large safe, and
within that a steel burg'I.ir-proof case
weighing four or five hundred pounds,
which it was deemed impossible jor any
one to break into. -
On Friday morning last, an early riser
was passing by the bank and noticed the
door standing ajar, an indubitable evidence
that a burglary had been committed. The
proprietors of the establishment were no
tified, and on their arrival at the scene of
action, an examination was made, and
it was found that the outside door of the
building had been broken open, the door
of the vault was cut through, the safe
blown to pieces and the steel case carried
away entirely. So far as known, all of
this work had been done without alarming
any one: It is probable that the burglars
arranged their powder in the safe and
closed the door of the vault before they
ignited it, thus stifling the noiso made by
the explosion.
Tho safe contained from one hundred
to one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
in bonds, notes and cash. The bonds be
longed principally tc people in moderate
circumstances, and were in the nature -of
special deposits, so Messrs. Pettis & Ingalls
will not be responsible for them. The
amount of money in the safe belonging to
the owners was not large, as they had
fortunately made remittances before the
burglary was committed, and the greater
portion of the loss was in bonds, of varieus
kinds.
The services of the Peoria detectives

cion. The general impression is that the
work vvas done by some one who was not

A Hastt Marriage. Improbable as
xt may seem to some, the statement we
are about to make is absolutely true. Tho
incident occurred in Juniata comity, only
a few weeks ago. A rather good-looking
stranger come into the neighborhood, ped
dling spectacles. Arriving at the house
of Mr. -Smith we shall call him, for
short,) he exhibited his stock to the old
lady. She tried several, and finally one
suited her exactly, but she had "no
money to buy with." Peddler pressed
her to buy. She reiterated the fact that
she had no money, but jokingly remarked
"I'll trade one of my daughters for a pair
of spectacles." Upon this the eldest of
the girls spoke up" You needn't trade
me, mother, for I won't havo him."
Thereupon the peddler turned to the
younger and said, "Well, will you have
me I" The answer was promptly "Yes I"
Accordingly the spectacles were handed
oyer, and arrangements at once made
for th wedding. That night the hap
py! paiV (who had never seen each other
before that Jay) were united in the holy
bands of matrimony" by Esquire L. A
short honeymoon of three days passed
pleasantly enough, the peddler going out
on a trading expedition each jnoruing and
returning faithfully in the evening. All
seemed delighted, the old folks as well as
the young, the new-made husband being
exceedingly amiable and apparently a per
fect gentleman. One or two . nights he
absented himself, but made satisfactory
explanation of the circumstance, and be
sides made additional amends by present
ing his wife with a sum of money , suffi
cient to buy a new dress and pair of shoes,
both which she very much needed. An

Mr, Editor As a friend I wish you
to insert what I am about to write, 'as it
may be the means of relieving some poor
suffering creature of a painful and distress
ing affliction, such as the subject of these
lines was afflicted with. While in the
army I became acquainted with a young
gentleman whose kindness and aid during
a spell of sickness, served as a great pro
moter of attachment for him who thus
kindly cared for mo, though himself
wounded at the same time. Years rolled
on, the war ended, and we both returned
home to follow the bent of our inclinations.
And just here permit me to say that I was
glad to learn that he had concluded to
study medicine with our good friend L- r. R.
S. Hunn. Before concluding his studies,
his mother, as kind-hearted a farmer's
wife as one would meet in a day's travel,
became the subject of rheumatic pains,
which in spite of all the medical skill ap
plied, grew worse and worse, until finally
her limbs became much drawn up and
distorted and in an almost hopeles condi
tion she was confined to her bed, enduring
such intense suffering and excrutiating pain
as only those who have been afflicted in
like manner can form any idea of. Fi
nally, the medical course ef the son was
completed, he received his diploma and
located in Carrolltown as a practising
physician. Aad now comes that which I
wish to relate. The son undertook to
cure his mother, and after a short time
the effect of the treatment he adopted
could be seen operating in her favor ; and
as I pen these lines the suffering mother
is able to go about the house and rejoice
that she has been delivered from her ex
cruciating suffering by the skill of her sonf
Dr. James J. Oatman. I have written
these lines without the knowledge of Mr.
Oatman, and have done so for the benefit
of afflicted humanity.

DKSrrKATE COHFIJCT WITH A MURDKR-
xii. Some time last spring an old lady
named Elizabeth McDonald was coolly
and deliberately murdered in her own
houso, in Washington Township, Jeffer
son County, Pennsylvania, and robbed of
J.000 in gold and some other money and
valuable?- The crime was committed by
two desperate- villains, one of whem was
arrested soon after, tried, convicted and
hung. Before he w&i hung he said that
W. D. Graves was his partner 4in guilt.
The officers of the law have ever since
been on his track. The other day he was
found in a school house at Cedar Springs,
Michigan. The officer entered, and call
ed on him to surrender, which he seem
ingly did. He laid his pistol down in or
der to iron him, when the man seized it,
and pointed it at the officer. Hie latter
thereupon drew another revolver. . Tha
two remained a moment aiming at eaeh
other, when Graves turned and ran for
the woods. The officer fired several
times, but did not hurt him. He was
finally overtaken, when a bloody and
desperate fight took place. The man
fought with clubs, stones and anything
he could command, and until he was com
pletely covered with blood, and so perfect
ly bruised and cut to pieces by the officer
that he could no longer make a show of
resistance. Finally, when taken and
ironed, he begged the officer to shoot him,
or give him a pistol that he might end his
own life ;J knowing, as he did, that if it
was not ended then it would be in a few
months hence on a scaffold ia Pennsylva
nia. Consumption Curable by Pa. Schesck'h
Medicines. To cure CONSUMPTION the
system must be prepared so that the lungs
will heal. To accomplish this, the liver and
stomach must first be cleansed and an appe
tite created for good wholesome food, which,
by these medicines will be digested properly,
and good healthy blood made ; thus building
up the constitution. SCIIENCK'S MAN
DRAKE PILLS cleanse the stomach of all
bilious or mucuous accumulations ; and, by
using the Sea Weed Tonic in connection,
the appetite is restored.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup Is nutrlcous as
well as medicinal, and by using the three
remedies, all impurities are expelled from the
system, and good, wholesome blood made,
which will repel all diseases. If patients
will take these medicines according to direc
tions. Consumption very frequently in its
last stage yields readily to their action.
Take the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver
and stomach. It does not follow that be
cause the bowels are not costive they are
not required, for sometimes in diarrhoea they
are necessary. The stomach must be kept
healthy, and an appetite created to allow
the Pulmonic eyrup to acton the respiratory
organs, properly and allay any irritation.
Then all that is required to perform a per
manent cure is, to prevent taking cold.
Exercise about the rooms as much as possi
ble, eat all the richest food fat meat, game)
and, in fact, anything the appetite craves
but be particular and masticate well. '
