The Pittsburg JW pronounce* Mr.
Orris' speech, upon our state finances,
the ablest that was deiivsred at llar
risburg last winter, and the Philadel
phia Ape recently spoke of him as the
ablest member of the House. Mr.
Orris' straightforward course in favor
of honest legislation, and the great
ability he displayed has already gain
ed for bim a state reputation, rank
ing him among the foremost of onr
public men.
Even the New York Sun has reed
Mr. Orris' great speech, published in
last week's Reporter, and comments
upon the astounding defalcation of
nearly 3 million dollars as revealed
by our representative and proven by
the official documents.
President Grant is on a pleasure
trip to Colorado. There is evidently
little to do at Washington, for Presi
dent Grant always spends his entire
summers away from the seat of gov
ernment—or else be is not capable of
doing taoch, which we are inclined to
think is the fact, and tha machine is
run by Proxy. But why double his
salary when he can find time to be
away on pleasure tripe nearly half bis
term?
Gov. Hartrauft has not yet signed
the congressional apportionment bill
passed by the late legislature. And
he ought never to sign it—it is the
most infamous and unfair radical ger
rymander to cheat the democracy of
Pennsylvania out of their just repre
sentation in Congress that wickedness
could have conceived. Let's see how
long Hartranft will bold oat.
The reason why Grant's salary was
doubled may have been because he in
tends doing more traveling and sport
ing this summer than ever before,
which will require mora stamps. He
is already ou his tramp, and is now in
Coloreda. Really, we have a gov
ernment with nothing to do, unless it
goes hard to draw big pay.
They had a beer riot in Frankfort,
Germany, last week, in which about
a dozen of men were killed—the price

Thus some of them got moro bier tbso

will qnench their thirst forever.

The Lewiatowo True Democrat co
pies, with its endorsement, our recent
article on the senator question in
which we pointed, oat the danger of
defeat if a tricky and unpopular dem
ocrat should succeed in getting the
nomination in this close senatorial
district Let democrats ksep their
eyes open and nominate a deserving
man, one who can command the en
tire vote of tbe party, end tbe diatrict
will be safe for the democracy. Tbe
True Democrat, however, thinks it a
little early to talk about this matter ;
but our cotemponry would not think
so, perbap, if he were aware that
schemes are already being hatched by
bad men to obtain this nomination,
and this is what induces tbe Reporter
to give this timely waning.
Louisiana b still Ui from being
quiet. The usurping, bastard Kellogg
government, uphold by Grant's bayo
nets, b trying to enforce its mandates
against an unwilling people. The cit
izens of that state are unanimously re
solved to pay no taxes levied by a
bogus government They are right—
that government b not the one they
voted for, and why not resist the pay
ment of taxes which it levies to uphold
itself? That b what our revolutiona
ry fathers did. To resist such an in
justice b the sacred, God-given right
of any people. The people of Loubi
ana want nothing to* do with the Kel-,
logg government—it b there in direct j
opposition to their votes.
Mr. ATancock's "little rooster" does
not like what we said on the senator
question—that part of it which advi
ses against the danger of selecting any
one but a sound and incorruptible
democrat. Of course we did not, nei
ther does any one else, expect that to
suit Mr. Hancock's "little rooster."
We oly reminded the parly of the
fket that democrats have shown, even
in onr own county inside the last five
years, that they will not vote solidly
for a bad man, benee we think it a
matter of the highest importance that
is this claee district the democracy
be warned against making a weak no
mutation. We think it quite natural
this is distasteful to Mr. Hancock's
"little rooster" at it is undermining
tbe dunghill upon which he scratches.
Mr. Hancock's "littla rooster" ex
claims that the people of this county
know the editor of the Reporter. Of
course they do, all of them ; we are
glad they ao, and regret they all do
got know Mr. Hancock's "little roos>
ter." When weauit ruttuing for the'
legislature we htuf an Increased ma-|
joritv. and higher than our excellent
nominee for governor, Hicsler (lymcr. j
But when Mr. Hancock's "little roos
ter" quit running, it was evident that
only a portion knew him, for he was
a telescopic distance behind, and had
he been ltiowti bv all, he would have
been won cat. The only place in whioh
Mr. Hancock's "little rooster" rues
highest in figures, is when he draws
pay for printing, he distaneea all oth
ers, and comes out from 400 to 600
iu majority. Our mutual admiration
society now stauds adjourned.
An International Scandal.
Though it has been understood frotu
the beginning that the appointments
of Commissioners to the Vienna Kxhi
bitiou were honorary and carried no
salary, the pressure to obtain these
placee has been unprecedented. At
first it was hard to uudemUud why the
applications were made. Sotpe
graceful facta have leaked out since,
which show that the same corruption
that had made other offices a by-wort!
had fouud footing in those places of
honor. U was charged explicitly that
two of the Commissioners appointed by
I Col. Van Buren had agreed to obtaiu
S for their clients certain restaurant
privilages, for which they were paid
$6,000 and $2,1>00 severally : Inves
tigation has shown these charges to be
but too true.
Wheu the first whisper of the scandal
reached Washington, the Secretary of
the Treasury telegraphed to our Min
ister at Vienna, .ur. Jay, asking him
to act with Sub Commissoner Thomas
McElrath, as a board of inquiry into
the alleged corruption. They were
not long in finding the culprits. Ii
stead of helping on the great work
that Austria had planued, they have
beeu portioning out the plot of laud
given to the United States into places
for soda-water stands aud bakeu-bean
depots. Their covetousness had over
reached itself, however, in their eager
ness to get their money and put their
friends in possession of their stands.
They will be removed, and the corrup
tion will stop here. But the scandal
will remain.
Of all the humiliation forced upon
our people by the greed of political
bummers, this is the worst, because it
puts the nation to shame in the eyes of
all Europe. Statesmen and thiukiug
people abroad bave read of corruption
in the American Legislatures anil av
arice in high places that stooped to the
lowest depths to turn a penny, but no
doubt they thought the account exag
gerated. With this fresh proof of ras
cality before their eyes, they will no
longer hesitate to believe the worst.
Is there no place of honor in our
long list of offices that is free from the
taint of corruption ? It becomes us
to think well before we answer the
question. Our claims to greatuess are
advanced by our orators aud writers
on all occasions. What shall we
say to the claim of excelling all other
nations in shamelessness ? Do Toc
queville wrote of this land of the free
a generation ago, "Behold a nation
rotten before ripe." Was he the Cas
sandra of our Troy ? The Graphic.
The majority report of the Com
mittee on railroads and canals was be
fore the Constitutional Convention on
7th, sitting as a Committee of the
Whole. After an anuimated discus

upon hereafter :
SEC. 1. Any individual company
or corporation organized for the pur

a railroad or canaljbetween any two
points in this State. Any railroad
may Interset and connect with any
other railroad, and no discrimination
shall be made in passenger and
freight tariffs on persons or property
passing from one railroad to another
and no unnecessary delav interposed
in the forwarding of such passengers

The legislature shall by general law
prescribe reasonable regulations to
give full effect to these powers and
rights.
Serious Riot Between Strikers and
Imported Negroes-
Indianapolis, April 15. —A serious
riot is in progress at Knightstown, In
diana, between the strikers at the coal
mines and ftirnaces and the colored
miners lately imported from Virginia.
The whole town is apparently now en
gaged in a general melee, originating
with a negro and a striker, which soon
spread. The negroes are now at their
board ing- house, well armed and well
guarded by local police. A crowd is
surrounding it, throwing stones and
missiles. A company of colored mi
oers from Brazil and vicinity came to
aid the ueproes, and many shots were
fired during the melee. Governor
Hendricks has been appealed to for
troops, and it is expected that the Em
met Guards and a body of police from
this city will leave for Knightstown at
2 A. M., and arrive there about 5 A.
M. The indications now are that
there will be bloody work before the
troop arrive. One of tbe guard over
the negroes has been injured, it is not
known how seriously. The town is
full of rumors. The women are the
most furious and are leading the riot
ers.

persons were killed and forty wounded.
One hundred and twenty of the rioters

Children.
New York, April 23.—This morning
Mrs. Annie Hennesey, aged 26, wife of

came in yesterday, being the first for
a week. The reports of the late storm
•how it to have been one of the sever
est ever known. Men were frozen to
death within two rods of their houses
while trying to get to their stock.
Near Afiou a man named Kieler at
tempted to reach his neighbors a half
mile away with his wife and child, and
the latter were frozen to death. Mr.
Marshall, near Hastiug, perished while
tryiug to reach his stock from the

house, their own being reudered useless
Their bodies were found on Friday
ten rods from the house. Families
were compelled to take refuge iu cellnri

Beecher on South Carolina and the
Modocs.
New York, April 21. —Mr. Beecher
in his sermon yesterday said he did
not know on earth a more pitiable
sight than the present condition of
South Carolina It was at one time
the richest and proudest of the states.
It inaugurated these ideas which led to
tha disaster of war and cleansing of
the continent. The people of South
Carolina had risked and sacrificed
every thing for their principles.
They had seen their childreu laid in
the grave, and their households re
duced to beggary, and yet in the plen
itude of their sorrow, they would take
back no particle of their faith in the
cause. Throughout the bad cause
they showed heroism it would be well
to pattern and admire.
In his prayer he besought the Fath
er of all mankind to remember in
mercy "the children of the forest,
whose pent-up wrongs had driven
them to bloodshed aud diabolical
murder."

A thunderbolt which came down
last Saturdav at Milton, Conn., and
paid particufar attention to the house
of Mr. Brown, deserves record for its
singular and vigorous behavior. It be
gan by demolishing the lightning-rod
in the most sarcastic andscornful man
ner. It then entered a second story
room of the house, cut a hole six feet
square in the floor, demolished the
stove, and broke every pane of glass
in the window, after which it mildy
enterd the dining room, and ripped up
the floor there. It made minced
rneat (so to speak) of the wash-room.
It left that house without any under
pinning to speak of. Then it paid its
respects to the barn, went Dack to the
house, violated the sanctity of a ser
vant maid's room. The poor girl was
just innocently adjusting her hair in
the looking-glass when she was thrown
violently backward on the bed by the
furious thunderbolt, and she says she
will never be vain again. In a neigh
boring house the frisky element "scat
tered a quantity of soft soap, and tore
1 rivet from a frying-pan." There
never was such a bolt bei'or.

CONSENTENTIAL DAMAGES
The fellowing important section to the

last, by tho Convention
All municipal, railroad, canal, and eth
er corporations and individuals shall be
liable for tbe payment of damages to lbs
propcity resulting from the construction
end enlargement of their works, as well to
owners of property not actually occupied
as those wbese property is taken; and
said damages shall bo paid or secured to

It is rumared that Senator Wallace ha*

By turning to the last official report of
the state treasurer, we find on page 27 that
that the balance in the sinking fund No*
vsmbtr SO, 1871, was 3,478,938 40; and en
page 38 that the balance in the fund No*
rember 80, 1872, was 3,496,514 08. Why
did not this large amount of money remain
in the sinking fund instead of being ap
plied as the constitution and laws require
to the payment of the public debt ? Why
should the people of the state be swindled
out of tho interest on this largo amount T
For if this money had been applied as it
should have been, the interest bearing
debt of the state would have been reduced
that much more, and the tax payers of the
stale relieved from tho annual payment
of 208,730 30. What explanation can the
commissioners of the sinking fund, or the
state treasurer give why this money has
not been applied as reqiured by the con
stitution? They may say that it is unwise
and impolitic to pay tho public debt more
rapidly than they have been doing. They
arc not, however, tbe proper judges of the
wisdom or propriety of the rapid payment
of the public debt. Tho people settled that
question of policy when they ratified the
amendments to the constitution of 1857
Why, then, i this money not applied as
the constitution requires? Is it used by
the "Treasury Ring"—for wo hear there
is tueh an institution, among numerous
other "rings" here—is the interest on this
large amour.t of money used to enable this
ring to perpetuate its rule and power at
the state capitol ? If it is, it is time the
people of the state should understood it

Modoc* have fled to the south. The
| Warm Spring Indian* and cavalry will
'probably communicate with each other
i >-day. Colonel Mason ha* moved hi*
; camp into
Captain Jack'* Lair.
It is really one of the most remarkable
freaks of nature in tbe country, and if it
had not been for the mortars and howit
ters the loas en our side would bare been
very heavy. It is impossible to giro a
clear idea of tbe formation of the rocks,
but if one looked at a very coarse sponge
through a magnifying g.ass it would give
an idea of tbe lava bed* if seen through
a telescope from a post ol observation two
or three mile* distant. Yesterday the sol
dier* scattered all over the neighborhood
of the stronghold, searching in the crevices,
chasms, and cave* for relics of tbe Mo
docs. They found the body of a buck and
'two iquaws hid in different parts of Ike
; rocks. Tboaejofthe bucks that were woun d
rd were soon put out of their misery by
the soldiers, who are evidently determin
ed to leave no male members of the tribe
to gloat over tbe tnurder of their beloved
general.
Tbe Modoc Fortifications
Tbe officers of the command were much
astonished at th# ingenuity of the Modoc*
in their artificial work on these natural
fortifications. At one spot they construct
ed a winding gallery up a rocky bluff,
which was guarded by a side wall of bro
ken recks, so placed as to render it impreg
nable to musketry from any point Eve
ry prominent rock that commanded an
approach was fortified with breastworks
ef loose rock, behind which they could
shoot with their guns at rest and perfect
security from the fire of the attacking
party.
Seventeen Dead J/odoc*
The lava bed preeenls a horrid spectacle;
bodies have been discovered in the crevi
ces from under heaps of rock, and a aick
sning stench fills the air. There must
have been many killed and wounded we
kaow nothing of, but we have evidence of
the .death ef seventeen Medocs. Their
wounded must be in a greater ratio than
ours, as the ground is literally covered
with fragmen tea# broken shells all over
the place.
The Shelling of tne Caves.
Three shell* fell in the main ravine, in
the centre ef their caves, scattering mot
of them. There were about 2® men.
women and children, sixty of whom could
fight. Probably fifteen warriors were
slain in three day*'fighting. Yesterday
the soldiers captured an old squaw who
was unsblo to escape. She confirm* the
death of Schonchin, the second chief, who
was shot by Commissioner Meacham.
Difficulties of the Situation.
If the Indians do not make a stand, this
country will be in a horrid state this sum
mer. The ranchers will sell thoir cattle
and be compelled to abandon their rancb
e*. Fifty do*pernio Indians roaming those
rocky fastnesses will work incalculable
destruction to property, and cause a fear
ful loss of life, and lay waste the country,
while the soldiers will bo compacalively
powcrles because they cannot bunt them,
and when they find them,they cannot ven
ture out without'incurring groat risk, not
knowing what branch or sage brush con
ceals a foe. The troops will not be idle.
Tho Medocs will have no chance to re
cruit their shattered force*. Extermina
tion is tbe word.
A Modoc View
Black Jim's mother-in-law, who has
beon captured, gives the followiug account
of the fight ;
She said on the first day one of ths big
balls, meaning shells, fell near whore the
bucks were sitting in council, and that
One Kyed Jake, ono of the Shacknasty
family, ran and picked it up and look it
over to John Hchoncbin and another Indi
an, and they all three tried to bite it At
this Interesting juncture the big ball
broke into pieces and they were all three
killed. The old squaw said that four otli
ers had been killed on tho first day by
musket balls, and she had been bid in a
crevice ever since and did not know what
was done afterward*.
Another Battle in Progress. *
Later—lo a. m.— Firing has commenced
at the head of I-orig Cave, where the
troops were attacked by Indians coming
down to the water. An escort coming to
meet tho pack train has also bean attack*
ed, and the men ordered to fall in. Light

Atneriraii Antiquities).
There i* a vague popular idea that the
so called New World is in reality the Old
World in its habitation and civilisation,
at lest a* compared with any portion of
Europe, and study of tl> work of Squire,
and the contribution to our earlier history
will go far to make distinct the impres
sion. The proof that tbe Indian tribes of
North Amerieajwhich we have been used
to consider the aboriginal races, were tbe
•uccettors of a people far above them in
civilisation, is full and unmistakable. The
evidence is patent to the miners of North
ern Michigan, to the explorers of the
Ohio mound*,* and to tbe careful observ
er* of tbe works yet left, if not intact, at
least unambiguous in their teachings, all
through the Valley of Mississippi and in
the wild* ef Florida. We can only point
out the salient features of this wide field #1
exploration, and direct attention to a few
•f the result* attained. And, first, . it
be observed that the Indians who inhabit
ed thi* country, upon its discovery, and to
many of whom yet remain in precisely the
>ante stile of barbarism a* tbqp, neither
builded the mound* to which reference
will be made, nor have any traditions in
regard to them ; they have and had no
copper tools ; migratory in their nature,
they erected no fortifications, rude or oth
er* Ue, of the tame character, and the re
main*, of ancient monument*, which
dot tbe valley of Mississippi art to be re
ferred unquestionably to a prior and ex
tinct people.
Thi* more civilised race has lcfla*y*-|
lent tf earthwork*, designed for defense,,
worship and sepulture, intricate and ex
tended. The age ot those earthworks is.
of course, in a gresit degree conjectural ;
>ome idea, however, of their antiquity is
gained from the article* within them, and
from the fact.lhal upon them trees now ex
ist having six or seven hundred .ring* ot
annual growth, with other* of grtal sixe
decaying in the mould beneath them, so
thai tbeir abandonment must hare boen
more than a thousand year* ago, pessibly
several thousand year*. The place* se
lected always possess peculiar adaption to
ihc purpose designed, and the eppioachesi
are fortified with great skill. Bay* Mr.
Squire in "Anliqulie* of New York and
the West," they are guarded by double
over-lapping walls, or a series of them,
having sometime* an accompanying
mound, designed perhaps, as a "lookout,"
and corresponding to tbe barbican in the
British system of defense, of the middle
age The banks of the Western river* are
unusually steep, often unaccnssible, |and
these works are built upon their nio*l dif
ficult point* ; successive terrace* are fre
quently found by the river** shifting on
it* channel. The fermtiion of each ter
race constitutes a sort of seniigelogical era
in the history of the valley , aud the fact
that n*n of the worki occur upon the
lowest formed of these, while they are
found indiscriminately upon all others,
bears directly upon the question of their
antiquity. In tbo vicinity of Cbilcolbe,
Ohio, is a fortified bill containing within
its wall* an aiea of 140 seres, and other*
approach this in extent. Ofthese mounds,
Ohio alone contains ten thousand, betide*
as nmny er more inciosurrt, some eflhem
con taining five or six hundred acres. The
mound* are from a .small size ts that at
Cahokia, in Illinois, which is nearly one
hundred feet in height, and a half a mile
in circumference at bare, with a level
summit of several acres.
Such results, a* is well said, can only
have been achieved by a dense population,
organised into a firm government, and pre
sided over by despotic ruler ; some such
i political system, in short, as in Egypt pro
duced the pyramids, and in Mexico and
Peru their many massive works. Those
' mounds are composed principally ofearth,
though stone, in largo quantities, is often
introduced, and many mounds are com
posed entirely of stone. The great stone
j mound about eight miles south ofNewark.
Ohio, was composed of stones in their
natural shape, built up without cement to
the height of from forty te fifty feet, upon
a circular base of one hundred and eighty
two feet in diameter. This was surround
ed by a low fosse and parapet of an ornaU
form, with a gateway at the east end. Li
a small mound at the base of this was
found human bones, copper rings and
breaat-plates and a stone box inclosing an
engraved tablet in unknown characters ; a
skeleton in a trough, formed.by hollowing
a log, which trough showed ax-marks of a
sharper cut than could have been produc
ed by a stone ax ; disclosing an era prior
to the existence of the Indian race. In
tho great mound at Grave Creek, Vir
ginia, found a vaulted sepulchral
four yards long by two and a
half yard* wide. It was composed of a
stone wall, nearly four feet thick, and
contained two skeletons, one being of a
woman almost reduced to dust. There
wero found many ornaments, ameng them
necklaces of pearl. In anolhor grave
eighteen feet above the last, was found a
skeleton, shell head, leather bracelets,
and one hundred and fifty mica plates, and
a most curious alphabetical inscrip
tion composed of twenty-two characters,
in three lines, with a cross and mark en
graved on a handslone of elliptical shape,
about two and one-half inches wide, and
about five lines thick.
In the nitro caves of Kontucky are
found great number* of mummies, pre
served by the air of these caves, as there
it no ovidencc of preparation. They are
wrapped in fbur successive coverings, the
interior consisting ofa stuff wovon of fine
cord, peculiarly twisted, and of large feath
ers, which arq arranged with great art.
The second covering is composod of the
woven cord without feathers, and tha twa
outer ones of deer skins. *
The inclosures were probably in some
way connected with the religious ideas of
this lost people. The circles are usually
small, ranging from 250 to 300 feet in di
ameter, though some have [a circuit
of more titan a mile. Tha walls usually
range front three te seven feet high, but
in tho great circle in Newark, it is thir
ty feet front the bottom of the ditch to the
summit of tbe embankment. The "Works
at this locality covered an area of four
square mile*. Within or near the enclos
ure* occur tbe sacrificial mounds. These
'vary from two to fifty feet lag, averaging
about eight feel. They are burnt hard ;
on the alter* have been found instru
ment* and ornament* ol silver, copper
•tone and bona ; bead* of silver, copper,
pearl* and hell; pcar and arrow head*
of flint, quarts, garnet and obsedian; fo*
*ll teeth of shark*, teeth of the alligator;
marine shell*, galena sculpture* of the ku
man band and of numerous animal*, pot
tery of various kind*, and a large number
of interesting articles, seme of which
evince great skill In art. In Florida are
vestige* ol road* slsty Jo seventy-flve
mile* long, terminating at a mound.
These mound* are fiom eighteen to fifty
feet high. Dividing, as archaeologist* do,
the progress of mankind Into the several
epoch* ol development characterised a* the
old and now stone age*, the age ol bronae,
and that of iron, the people whose work*
we have been considering lived in what
■hould be termed the copper age, and be
fore the age of bronae; a* witness the
operation* of this rare in the Michigan
mine*. We have barely touched our sub-.
Ject, end must forego all argument as to
what has become of the race which ha*
left uch monument*; it will will repay
the student to look authorities lor
a fuller understanding of the history of
this continent, so far as it may be gathered
long pge* before an European ft ot was set
upon il> shores.
