Williams. Garvin, a veteran Dem
ocratic politician, and for many years
connected with the Wertrrn Press, pub
lished at Mercer, in this State, died in
that place on Monday last, in the seventy-six.
h year of his ag?. Few men in
the State were m ?re widely known than
Mr. G,, and no one was more highly re

The court martial appointed by Gen.
Hancock for the trial of Sergeant Ma
son, who shot at Guiteau through the
window of the Washington jail, met at
tha barracks iu that city en last Mon
day. We presume his counsel will set
up as a defence the plea of insanity, or
as Guiteau calls it, "inspiration." That
dodge is now the convenient and often
the safe refuge of every criminal who
attempts to commit a murder, or who
actually succeeds in effecting his pur
pose. Tiik JTepuhlican committee of Schuyl
kill county mttat I'ottsville on Monday
last and adopted a resolution urging up
on tho Republicans the propriety of re
nomniating Hod. Cyina L. Teishing as
President Judge. We take it for grant
ed that tha Democrats of tho county
will of course nominate Judge Teisuiug,
thus making him a non partisan candi
date, as ho was ten years ago. His old
friends and neighbors in Cambria coun
ty will always rejoice in his 6iicccs3and
iniwhatever honors may be conferred
upon him, knowing that he will always
honestly and faithfully discharge any
trust that may be confided to him.
When a man is indicted in Kansas
for seliitig lager beer, the mar. who
drank the Ix-er, when produced as a wit
ness to prove the selling, declares upon,
oath that it was not Leer, but "sea
foam," that he drank. In this way the
prosecution gererally falls to the ground
Tho following colloquy, taken from the
record of a case recently tried at Tope
ka, the capital cf the State, will serve
to show from a Kansas standpoint the
d'jfertnce between leer and sea foam :
"Question. Did this sea foam look like
beer .' Answer. It did.
"Q Diil it foam I'.ka beer? A. It did.
Did it taste litie beer? A. It did.
"if. Could you discover any difference
between it and'hter? A. I could not,
(.2. What then, in your judgment, wm
It? A. It wa3 sea f.iaiu.

know."
Cardinal Manning was one of the
prircip.il speakers at an immense public
meeting held in Loudon on tho first of
the pr?r.t month, for the purpose of
denouncing the brutal and inhuman
persecution of tho Jews iu Russia. In
his speech ho was somewhat severe on
his old schoolmate and still personal
friend, Mr. Gladstone, for his neglect,
or rather hia rufustd, to protest against
the cruel outrages committed upon these
unoffending people by tho subjects of
the Russian Fmperor. No passage in
Cardinal Manuirg's address elicited
greater nppuius; than the following :
"For uprightness, for refinement, for
generosity, for charity, for all the graces
ar.d virtues that adorn humanity, where
will be found examples brighter or more
full of Iranian excellence than iu the
Hebrew race ?"
TnEtwo Uuit -d States S.-nators from
ew Jersey and the members of the
House from the .same State have ad
dressed a letter to the President asking
him to take such action as will relieve
Gen. FitzJohu Porter from the penal
ties and forfeitures imposed on him by
the finding of the Court Martial before
which he w as tried in l?o3. At a cabin
et meeting last week Porter's case was
the subject of discussion, but no con
clusion was reached. The general be
lief at Washington is that whatever ac
tion can b? taken in the matter by the
President will not be much longer de
layed. It is a terrible outrage on a man
as brave as Fitz John PorUr to be the
victim for nineteen years of a false ac
cusation made before a Court Martial
a tribunal, which it has l-en well said,
is always "organized to convict."
The Tammany Hall members in the
JCerv York Legislature (three Senators
and eight Asjemblymen) went over neck
and heels to the Republicans on Wed
resday of last week, and organized the
Senate by voting to give the Republican
Lieutenant Governor power to appoint
the committees, and in the House as
sisted the Republicans in electing the
chief clert. This is the end of Taui
maDj's mournful but hypocritical howl
for the last seven weeks over the dan
ger of corporate influence and power in
enabling legislation at Albany. There
is no philosophy in crying over spilled
milk, but if any man claiming to be a
Democrat ever richly deserved political
damnation, that man is John Kelly.
"Oh 1 for a tongue to cure the slave
Whose treason, like a deadly Wight,
Conies o'er the councils of the t.rave.
And blasts t'ueui in their hour of might."
Guiteau has addressed a private note
to Col. Rt-pd, tha Chicago lawyer who
was associated with Mr. Scovilla in de
fending him before Judge Cox, in which
be offers bim, Ben Butler, llr.ilerrick,
of "Washington, and Judge Magruder,
of Maryland, five thousand dollars in
promissory notes,' payable in ono year
if they will put their legal heads to
gether and Jget bim out of tail. lie
tasea bis belief in bis ability to pay. up
on the theory that if be was released be
could make fifty thousand dollars on the
lecture platform before the first ap
pearanco of 6now next winter. Aside
from the folly of bis proposition, it is by
no means certain that Guiteau couldn't
scoop in a nice pile of money as a public
lecturer. This is a great country and
some very astonishing things are con
stantly happening iu it; and as Robert
Ingcrsoll, "Royal Bob," as GarCeld was
wont to call bim, never fails to draw
crowded houses, thereby putting money
in his purse, the probabilities are very
etronj that Charles Julius Guiteau
would meet with the same success if
the same erportneity was afforded him.
The Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue, Mr. ftaum, appeared before the
Committee of Ways and Means of the
House one day last week and advocat
ed the reduction of the tax on whis
key from 90 cents, the present tax, to
50 cents per gallon ; a reduction in the
tax on tobacco from 16 to 12 cents per
pound, and on cigars from $d to $4
per thousand. He also recommended
the'abolition of the tax on matches, etc,
making a total reduction in the internal
revenue of the country of about JtW.OOO
000. The committeelwill report a bill
for this purpose. It is not a doubtful
question that the government will de
rive more revenue from a tax of 50 cents
a gallon on whiskey than it now does
from the tax of 90 cents, just as more
revenue was collected under a tax of 70
cents than under a tax of one dollar.
The reason why this is so is easily un
derstood and need not be stated. A re
duction of the tax ought, one would
suppose, to bo followed by a correspond
ing reduction in its price, out somehow
this does not follow, and particularly so
with regard to tobacco. A few years
ago the tax on this staple was largely
reduced. Did the manufacturer reduce
the wholesale price 'i We don't know,
but we do know that the retail dealer
didn't do so, because a ten cent piece of
tobacco before the tax was reduced, was
a ten ceut piece of tobacco after the re
duction. Men who use tobacco need
not, therefore, flatter themselves that
any addition will be made to the size of
the hiy after Raura's proposed reduc
tion in the tax takes place. The con
sumer who really pays the tax is the
only party who is swindled, which leads
us to say that there is something rot
ten in the practical results of reducing
the tax on tobacco.
The Supreme Court on Monday last,
Judge Sharswood delivering the opin
ion, reversed the decision of Jude
Pearson, ofthe Dauphin county Court,
in regard to legislative salaries. This
decision of the court establishes the con
stitutionality of the act of 1S71. allow
ing f 10 per diem to legislators for time
spent over one hundred days. From this
decision, whether right or wrong, there
is of course no appeal, and the question
which wa3 in issue must be regarded as
finally settled. From the experience of
the past one thing may now bo regarded
as certain to take place in the future,
and that i3 that each session will be ex
tended to tho utmost legal limit of time
covereJ by the $10 per diem clause,
w hich is 150 days, unless the people will
elect a Legislature which will repeal the
act of ISTi and enact iu its stead a law
fixing a definite talary for the session
rcUhout regard to its lewjth, whether it
lasts one hundred or one hundred aud
fifty days. This is the only remedy, as
we have time and again expressed our
firm belief, against the curse of a five
months' session of the Legislature, and
if adopted would save the taxpayers of
the State every second year not less
than one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars.
On Monday last the telegraph inform
ed tho country that on the previous Sat
urday night, the Grand Jury of the Dis
trict of Columbia made presentments
against tirelvc cf the Star route contrac
tors, charged with conspiracy to defraud
tbs government. Anions those presen
ted for indictment are ex-Assistant
Postmaster General, Thomas J. Brady,
ex-United States Senator, Stephen W
Dors'-y, of Arkansas, now Secretary of
the-.RepublicanN'ational Committee, who
in ISoO took to the State of Indiana the
money by the corrupt use of which Han
cock was swindled out of the vote of
the State and Garfield elected, his bro
ther, John W, Dorsoy, W. II. Turner, a
former clerk in the Fostoffice Depart
ment, and eight others. George Bliss.
a New York lawyer and a close friend
of Mr. Arthur, who ha3 been engaged
in pieparir.g this and other Star route
cases ever since Mr. Arthur became
President, states that he will be ready
by April to begin their trial. They
have been the constant subject of news
paper discussion during the past nine
months, and the country is exceedingly
anxious to learn what amount of rascal
ity will be developed at the trial.
The Congressional Apportionment
bill, as it passed the House 011 Saturday
L-u-t. fixes the number of representatives
at o5. This is au increase of 32 over
the present number, 233, and under the
bill tho respective gains in Democratic
and 1'epublicau States will nearly be in
the same proportion. Texas gains the
most and increases her present number,
six, to eleven. Pennsylvania gains one,
and so also does New York. The only
States that loso are Maine, Vermont
and ZS'ew Hampshire, 'each getting one
member les3 than at present. This bill
will pass the Senate and be signed by
the President. A great mistake was
made in the House by defeating an
amendment prohibiting the division of
a county in districting a State, as is the
case now in thi3 State, several town
ships m Bucks county, being attached
to the Northampton and Lehigh coun
ties as the Tenth district, and the bal
ance of the county connected with
Montgomery, as a district. The form
ation of a district in that way for a par
tisan purpose, which is always the con
trolling motive, is a wrong that admits
of no possible excuse.
The Washington correspondent of the
Pittsburgh J'ost, referring to the an
nouncement of Morgan U. Wise, of
Greene county, as a candidate for re
nomination to Congress, affirms that his
(Wise's) colleagues from this State do
not regard bim as a Democrat ; that he
was a skulker and a dodger at the last
session when his vote was needed ; that
his conduct has been such as to bring
reproach on the delegation in many
ways ; that bis fellow members actually
blush to own him as a colleague ; that
he has always been a cheap demagogue,
and is a man without either brains or
culture. This is rough on Wise, but
not more so than ho deserves. He was
a bad egg when lie was in the Legisla
ture, and it will always be one of the
mysteries of politics to Democrats who
live outside of his district, how it ever
happened that he succeeded in impos
ing himself upon it as a candidate, and
therefore, from its strong Democratic
majority, was certain to be elected.
OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
Regular Correspondence of Thi Friemas.
Philadelphia, Feb. 20, 1RS2.
Dear IIexrt Our most excellent
Mayor is beginning to look with a kind
lier eye upon the amusements of jouth,
and will not issue an order'to prohibit
the picking of eggs on Easter, The
boys will therefore be permitted to pick
?ggs without molestation. The Phila
delphia small boy is correspondingly
happy.
By the time this communication
reaches you, and before it appears in
print, the interminable agony of balls,
receptions, and other large public social
entertainments, will be over. The so
cial paths of the fashionables of this
city, which have been thick with, festal
roses, will all have the faded aroma and
the DPrUhahlfi rm-Uitv f nlpasurM view- '

ed in retrospect, hen the patrons of j
the FREJE.MAN are reading this, the i
pleasure path along which the fashion
ables of ourcity have been travelling
will be strewn with head aches and
heart aches. The season has been one
of the gayest ever known in Philadel
phia, and there is but one night more
to wind up the blilliant winter, which
it is presumed there will be a sort of
Lenten resolution that only the highest
and noblest aims of social intercourse
will be aspired to. The most fashion
able of our citizens will go out of the
city until Lent is over. The fashionable
ladies who remain will fall back upon
luncheons, card paities, "teas," visiting
and making preparations for Easter
dress and bonnets.
The distressing intelligence hr-3 been

lost its three leading beauties. All of
these beautiful women will bo missed

ead 1 A cable dispatch also announces
that the Marquis of Scotland, who has
been cruising about the Grecian Islands
for a month or two, intends coming to
the States and hiding himself in the
Rocky Mountains, wheie some of his
pastoral compatriots will give him a job
of herding cattle. The Marquis is thirty-four
years old, and a great favorite
socially, but ran away between two days
to avoid arrest on a charge of obtain
ing 190,000 by lalse pretenses.
Guiteau was sane enough to be a cam
paign orator and worker, but not sane
enough to be remembered in the divi
sion of the spoils. He was an honored
and trusted leader of the Republican
party in the last Presidential campaign.
He was a constant visitorat Republican
head quarters and ws put upon the hus
tings, to educate and persuade the mass
es to cast their ballots with the God and
morality party. Ha sat at the feet of
Gamaliel. lie was of the lambs of
lieecher's flock, the high priest of Rad
icalism. Still he is not remembered in
the division of the spoils.
The Progress of this city says : Tho
Press and Times are hard at it, "disfig
uring the face of nature." Along the
route of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
from Philadelphia to Xew York, these
dignified journals are running a race
with Blizzard's Pills and Thompson's
Cough Syrup. If Thompson and Bliz
zard advises the people of the great mer
its of their syrup and pill.s in letters two
feet high on one fence, the virtues of
the Press are suns on another in four
feet letters, and the Times goes two feet
bizger. So the people have their choice,
whether to take enterprising newspa
pers, or syrup, or pills. Both the Prcts
and the Times are now silent about what
some time ago they made a great outcry
against what they called the "disigur
ing of the face of nature" by advertis
ers who glorified their wares wherever
in the open country it was possible to
apply paint.
Many Democrats at first, excused Mr.
Fattison upon the supposition that be
wit s working only for a "vindication. "'
At first Mr, Fattison very shrewdly
caused many good Democrats to toler
ate, in a passive sort of a way bis can
vass for the Governorship by pretending
that be was not really desirous of ob
taining the nomination, but that he siin-
ply wanted to snow wane lnuuence ue
hud in Philadelphia against that winp;
of the iuirtv which onwsed him : but
now the very men whom he deceived.
are turning on him. Mr. Pattison gave
bis friends to believe that he would
quietly withdraw from the held, when
lie had asserted tlie extent of his leader
ship, but instead of withdrawing he in
tends to carry his fmht into the State
convention, and thereby render Phila
delphia powei less in that body. Honest
ly, Mr. Pattison is not the choice of
one-half of the Philadelphia Democracy
and if he had the real interest of the
Democratic parly at heart lie would at
once withdraw so that the Philadelphia i
Democracy may unite on one acceptable i
candidate and on a harmonious policy.
He can save the Philadelphia Demo
cracy from much bitter feeling by with

It was for a long time supposed that
Maj. Piiipps had something to do in the
management of the Almshouse, but the
people now learn that he was merely an
ornamental otlicer, whose duty was to
hand round the cigars. It was moreover
presumed thai Major Thipps wasan im
portant man about the Almshouse, but
it appears that he was not. To hand
round tlie cigars and see that his three
horses did duty for the institution was
his principal business.
Public sentiment is not at all mealy
mouthed in expressing itself in regard
to tlie Almshouse exposures. J rom be
ginning to end the developments have
been a series of blistering shames. There
is not a feature in it that will bear ex
cuse, Nothing more shameful and hu
miliating than the disclosures made in
regard to petty larcenies of public pro
perty and the stinting in the matter of
food, clothing, etc., to the wretchfed
creatures entrusted to the Guardians of
this Board cannot well be conceived of.
Every Christian citizen feels humiliated
and indignant at the disclosures of petty i
meanness and heartlessness of the Board
of Guardians of the 1'oor.

A Mii?Acri.ors Escape. One of tho most
singular adventures and wonderful escapes
from death ever recorded took place in this
city Saturday mornh'.g, suvs the Davenport
Democrat. At that time Mrs. Peter Ander
son, who lives in the vicinity of the Half
way House, and who had hern uptown, was
returning to her home. She liad to cross the I
railroad. Jut-t then a C, H. and Quincy j
train was coming and she stepped back on
the C, li. I. and P. track to allow the train
to pass, not notieiua at the same time that a j
train w:ts back i lit; down toward her on tha j
C, K. I. and V. Bond. The latter tniin 1

ihpand knocked her down, she filling im- j
mediately between tho rails. The train ;
came ou and passed over her prostrate body ;

hard thumps. The locomotive was the hist

Some of the PKn.Ts op Tuesday's
Kt,ections. In Philadelphia the political
bosses met with a crushing defeat on Tues
day last, The friends of reform in the city
government. Democrats and Republicans,
stood shoulder to shoulder in tho different
wards, and elected nearly all their candidates
for city councils, which was the only cpiies
tion at issue, One more such victory next
February and the supremacy of the corrupt
rule of the bosses in thp government of that
city wiil disappear and become a thins of
the past. As regards the results in most'of
the larger towns of the State, they show
that the Democrats were wide awake and
discharged their fu.lduty, notably so in Lan
caster and in several town of the oil regions.
