of Karon Nathan Mayer de Rothachild,
who was a native of Frankfort-on-the-
Main and who came to England in 1600,
and of a daughter of Levi Unmet Cohen
of London. The deceased was born in
1800, and in 1840 he married a daughter
of Abraham Monteflor. In 1656 he was
appointed to act as Austrian Consul-

Sheriff of Buckinghamshire in 1661; and
in 1871 he was made a Commissioner of
Lieutenancy for London. He received a
Baronetcy of the United Kingdom in
1546, with remainder in default of male

Charles Alfred, and Leopold Rothschild,
sons of his brother, Baron Lionel.
A GBASD FIXXLE.— The 76 convention,
held at Tyrone last week was the great
est "Btate fisxle" ever enacted. Wm. J.
Hemphill, ex-member of the legislature
as*e#or, revenue collector, general Radi
cal political manager, etc., of thUcounty,
was the substitute for Gen. Gordon, of
Georgia, and oar corpulent and discreet
friend, Mr. Humphrey, superseded
Judge Kelley. A few other small pota
toes were thrown in to make up the dele
gation of working men from this couuty.
If working men and reformers are made
out of this kind of stuff, we are greatly
mistaken and most unlearn a great deal.
Not one of the delegates from this town
has done a day's work in the past five
years, and yet they assume to regulate
the working man's affaire,. What hy
pocrisy and demagogism.— Pott.
Governor Hart ran ft, in his annual mes
sage, dwells at some length upon the
misgovernment of American cities and
the reign of lawlessness in the mining
regions of Pennsylvania. The Gover
nor's remarks are in the main just and
timely, ami his position is none the leas
amusing and instructive because the two
elements which most largely contributed
in November last to his own re-election
were the fraud- perpetrated by the Re
publicans in Philadelphia and populari
ty he had obtained among the _ Molly
Maguires by pardoning out the worst
scoundrels of their number. Precisely
what good it can do for the courts to
commit prisoners in at the spigot while
the Governor is pardoning them out at
the bung, is something which only Mr.
Hartrenft can explain.
From Chicago it is reported that in
addition to the crooked whiskey which
was disposed of by the distillers to the
rectifiers, and shipped hence to whole
sale dealers, large quantities were also
sold to vinegar manufacturers. There
are some twenty or thirty of these estab
lishments in and near to this city, and
they could have used a large quantity of
high wines in their business. It was a
safe way for distillers to dispose of their
crooked whiskey, because no trace
would be left behind. The rectifierfand
wholesale dealers are all required to
keep a record of all their transactions,
and the vinegar men were not all under
the surveillance of Government officers.
Of course it will be difficult to trace
these sales tothe vinegar manufacturers,
and it can only be done by some of the
parties turning State's evidence.
In consequence of several of the firms
employing ship caulkers, carpenters,
fasteners and spar makers in New Fork
having reduced the wages of their em
ployees from $4,50 to $4 per day, the
members of those trades have struck and
ceased work. A meeting of the ship
caulker association was held at which it
resolved not to accept the reduced wages.
Other trades is the strike evince the same
determination.
Any set of men who will strike when
they can get $4 per day do not deserve
much sympathy. Wages are coming
down with the fall in commodities, and
they must be governed by the same in
exorable rule that raises and lowers the
price of everything—the times supply
and demand.

A gloomy roll stares in upon us from
western Pennsylvania. Two hundred
and fifty petitions in bankruptcy have
been entered in the U. 8. Court at Pitts
burg dnring 1875, representing debts to
amount of $12,000,0(K), with assets less
than $G,000,000. Will we not soon have
a change and get the tide of ruin stayed?
Let the honest voter ponder over the
fearful sufferings of the business portion
of the country.

Speaker Blaine lias an amnesty bill for
all confederates in the late rebellion ex*
cepting Jefferson Davis. This is in bad
taste, and small business. Some of the
worst rebels like guerilla Mosby, and Gen
Lonstreet have been pardoned long ago
and are now white-house pets and have
fat offices under Grant, and Jeff. Davis
is not any worse than these, and to single
him out alone is an insult which the
South would not forget. The southern
members threaten to vote No on the Cen
tennial appropriation if Blaine's bill re
ceives the support of the radical uicin-v

That most stupid of all humbug*, the]
Sons of '76, were to have a state ConVfti-1
lion at Tyrone, on 28 IVo, which was a
gram! fixale behind closed doors. The
Ke|orter n|wi>d this rodiculou* hum
bug, gotten up by saloon lounger* aud
scurvy politician* for the purpose of sell
ing out, and our word of warning pre
vented it from gaining recognition here.
We published a despatch last week, to
the Philadelphia Time*, showing what a
miserable tlssle the Tyrone convention
was, and to show that the Time* corres

The State Labor Convention or Junior
Sons of' 76. met in this place on Decent

lion we made diligent inquiry of the time
and plat"* of meeting, the protukble num
ber present, etc., etc , but could find m>
head, nor any one aide to give us the de
aired informrtion. >V# then dropped the
matter, but afterward* learned that a
Convention was in eaion in Oaldwell'*
Hall, sitting with closed doom. We
made no ftirther inquiries at the time,
aince learned there ware only
about 25 or 30 persona in attendance. It
waa the most invisible bodj of litf men
that we ever heard of. We aaw here and
there on the streets, a stranger, that we
took to be a member of the organisation.
We do not know bow long they were in
*eesion or what they did, but we do
know, that it was a flaxleso far a* mem

representing himself to be from Con

former*, came to our office on VVadms
day to have bills printed for a public j
lecture that evening, lie also volun
teered to give us a report of the proceed
ing* of the convention. He left to com
plete further arrangements for hia pos
ter and that is the last we have seen of
him. The lecture didn't come off. Yet iu
the bice of this and knowing it to l>*
true, tbwre are papers in this section
of the state which continually lie about
and talk up this humbug, and even try
to make their reader* believe that the
Tyrone "State Convention" of bummers
was a success.

There seems to be lightning in reserve
for the Grant group for St. Louis next
week. The Chicago Times' Washington
correspondent says: •
Very trustworthy authority here is re
sponsible for the intelligence that docu
mentary evidence apparently implica
ting Fred Grant and Oreille Grant in the
whiskey frauds has been concluded and
forwarded to St. Louis for the use of the
grand jury. Dilligent inquiry and com
parison from ail sources likely to be in
formed confirm this point. The docuv
inente in the case hare been under ex
amination for weeks in skilful hands,
and the result is said to be the iraplira-
tion of the two Granta It is further
avowed that the authorities who arc
prosecuting the whisky cases hastened
this evidence out of the city, last the ef
fortof Mrs. Joyce, in behalf of her hus
band. through the instrumentality of the
Babrock letters, should impede the cause
of justice, in order that juat one guilty
man may be permitted to escape.
The democratic House at Washington
has resolved that the government ex
pend itnres shall be reduced, and one
item that it intends to begin on ia the
redaction of the army. President Grant
now intimates that he will veto any such
measure. The country baa a surfeit of
soldier straps and military loungers, and
several millions can b saved in that
quarter—we do not need a large stand
ing army.

The appropriations made for the fiscal
year ending November 30, 1675, exceed
ed the receipts of the general revenue
fund $515,821.22. and with like appropria
tion# and receipta the deficit for this
year would be doubled. It ia estimated
however, that the revenue of this year
will be five hundred thousand dollars
less than that of last year, which would
make the deficiency at the end of the
current fiscal year about one million five
hundred thousand dollars, unless the ap
propriations can be reduced. The np
propriationa are already made for that
part of the fiscal year embraced between
December 1, 1875, and June 1, 1876.
Moreover, the principal appropriations,
such as for schools and the ordinary ex
penses of the government, are fixed by
the constitution or by law, except those
for public charities, and these will de
mand unusually large amounts at this
session by reason of their failure to re
ceive anything at the last. It is mani
fest, therefore, that the appropriations
cannot be materially reduced, and thu
deficiency must be provided foreitberby
the imposition of new taxes or the ii-
Tureion into the general fund of some of
the revenues now flowing into the sink
ing fund. To levy new taxes at a time
when the businoasand industrial inter
ests are prostrated would be unwise and
a great hardship, and would justly meet
with public condemnation. The nccewd
ty, therelore, of the re-distribution of the
revenues is obviously a duty that is ur
gent, and demands your immediate at
tention.
By virtu* of a constitutional amend
ment, the sinking fund was created for
the purpose of gradually reducing the
public debt at a time when it exceeded
forty-million of dollars. An anntial re
daction of two hundred and fifty thous
and dollars, and the payment of interest
of the entire debt were its only require
ments, and they have been faithfully ful
filled by the sinking fund commission
ers since the creation of the fuud iu 1557.
It will also be oliserved by the following
statements, the most sanguine hopes of
the framcrs of the constitutional amend
ment have been more than realixed, dur
ing the last eleven year* the annual re
duction of the debt averaging nearly .a
million and a half of dollars:
Public dobt Dec. 1, 1864. $351,371),<'-<)3 W
Public debt Dec. 1,1875. 23,233,137 74
Total redaction in 11 years. 10,14)1,466 20
Average annual reduction. 1,407,800 06
The appended statement will show the
balance of the estimated receipts of the
sinking fund, at the expiration of the
fiscal year after the requirements of the
constitution will have been complied
with:
Tax on corpora
tion stocks, $2,100,000 00
Commutation of
tonnage tax, 400,000 00

nual redaction
of pub. debt $260,000 00
Int.on pub. debt 1,300.00000
Surplus $1,280,000 00
It will thus be seen with the present
distribution of the revenues, there will
resaain each year in the sinking fund
after the payments which the constitu
tion requires, over a million and a quar
ter of dollars, and when it is remember
ed that the amount of interest to be paid
will annually decrease and the receipts
be greater, owing to the natural nccre
tion of the taxes, the amount of this
balance will be augmented from year to
year. If this surplus is annually appli
ed to the extinguishment of the debt, u
careful calculation will show that in tin
years the entire iudebtednessof the state
will be redeemed. However desirable
this reduction may be, and gratifying HC
it certainly would be to the executive,
under w hose administration a large por
tion of it would be made, yet the diminu
tion of the taxes in 1873, to the amount
of one million of dollars, and the five
hundred thousand dollars additional ex
penses made necessary by the new con
stitution in behalf of common schools,
the judiciary anil legislature, and the
claims of deserving public charities, for
bid this large reduction as the revenues
are now distributed. By another calcu
lation it appears that by taking one

legislature assigned to the sinking fund,

In Ins recommendation* conceriiing
the puhlit Nloads of the state the gotll -
nor reitrrutes tho opinions of his former
messages. There is in all that ho sa vs
on thin subject not one word of the vi
j eiou* and miserable cant about sectarian
j interference with the common schools'
, which ha- formed the staple of so much
lof tins kind of jiolitical writing. Tlie
i governor has too much respect lor the
representatives of the people and for
j himself to indulge in this sort of partisan
1 clap-trap. If ho hnvl not the example of
I Grant before hint in this regard his own
, sagacity and good reuse would bav c serv
ed billl H" well.
In the body ofthe mes-age tliere is a
J learned andel.dorute dissertation ou the
j cubjeet of muuicipai government.
I Though excellent in its way it seems
i somewhat out of plnev in an exeeutive
message, unless the governor was espe
cially desirous of impressing on the legis
lature the fact that "rings" have existed
in municipal government since the tlrst
public corporation jobs wort started in
the auciunt cities Tyre and (iiiloa. lU
' ginning with the cities of Phoenicia the
I governor traces the history of municipal
corruption down throught tJie comttur
eial towns of the middle age* until the
defeat ofllenocey in Pliilaiielphiaseem
to bare afforded the material for the lust
, touches of the exe. utive pen. This his
torical resume i* merely preliminary to
the recommendation that the legislature
authorise the appointment, ofa coumdis
sion of experienced |tens*ns to examine
j into the condition of our cities and t wn#
and prepare such legislation as ill met t
the abuses in the municipal gov eminent.
.Such an investigation into the manage
ment of the afiair* of the cities of the
state woultl undoubtedly rip up a fear
■ ful amount of official depravity, fillers
the legislature be utterly iuseusibln to
the eloquence of Gov. Hartrauffs do
' script ion of inunitipal corruption, an
cient and modern, the commission will
jbe authorised without delay. As an ad
ditional inducement for raising this com
' mission the governor gives it at bis
, candid opinion that all the legislation
upon the statute book referring to tnui ••
ei]mlitiesshould be regaled.
The governor next turns his attention
to the law less outbreaks in the coal re
gions. After wrestling lustily with the
question of labor and capital through an
other coluutu he gives up the conundrum.
Want of iquii'u prevents u further revit vv
of the topics oonaidemi in the nie-wage.
The treatment of the insane of the state
j and the necessity for more hospitals are
' humanely discussed. In regard to the
I Centennial the governor reeotnmenda
j that financial aid be granted by the leg—
j luture for the favorable -xlubitiou of the
industrial products of Pennsylvania. As
j there is to be a grand military display,
he urges that provision be made for the
■ tr.insjK>rtation to Philadelphia and for
the encampment of the volunteers ofthu
state at some period of the exhibition.
The geological survey, In- trance, sala
ries of county officers, the lish commis
sion, banks, and other subjects of gener
al interest are appropriately treated.
Some of these subjects urc of sufficient
importance to entitle them to further
notice. The message deserves, and will
doubtless receive, extensive jn-rusal.
Many will consider it the ablest state
paper that has been prepared by Gover
nor Hurtranft.
