Bo says the Lewlsburg Journal, and it
is the trnth—wherever Mr. Dill is known
people of all parties are for him. That a
the best recommendation for the demo.
cratic nominee. _
Haves has removed Ben Bdtler s
brother-in-law from tho New Orleans
post-mastership. This is about as close
as the fraudulent President * able to
strike at Ben, because he will ** w*
lieve Hares was fairly elected, and

tigating committee.
Making a fraudulent president did not
make a happy family ont of the radical
partv. In lowa tho republican platform
opposes tho Southern policy of Presi
dent Haves and demands a tan:, .or
revenue. In Vermont the county con
tentions approve of the President - en
tiro policy. In Wisconsin the rule of
Boss Keyes is disputed by independent
republicans, who threaten to bolt if the
Boss is to use the party to make himseif
United States Senator. In Tennessee
the colored republican organ, the
Knoxville Examiner, reports that the
colored voters are spliUng their tickets
on local nominations and voting for
democrats where these are the best
men.
Totato bugs will kill fish as well as
potatoes. See:
A colony of potato bugs attempted to
fly over Saratoga Lake, New \ork, but
mis-calcnlated the distance and fell into
the water, to be gobbled np by the fish,
to the great joy of the farmer*. Bui this
jov was of short duration. The hard
shells not sotting easy on their stomach*
the fish died by hundreds and were
washed upon the shore. W hen opened
many of the fish were found to contain
hundreds ofthe objectionable bugs.
The republican papers of Union coun
ty arc making sham a fight.on Dill thej
try to say some things against Andy only
to keep their standing in the party.
They actnally like Dill —as do all I nion
county people—and it would be risky to
be? that the Chronicle and Telegraph
men will not aleo vote for honest Andy.
We predict that Union county will show
a largely increased vote for Dill. M hen
ever one ofthe republican papers down
there says something against l'ill, it
does it with a strong wink.
If all men were honest —and all could
be—and did unto others as they would
be done by—what a grand old world

and juries, no business for lawyers, no
costs, no taxes, no police*men, watch*

would have to learn a different trade, no
thieves, murderers or liars or cheats, no
quarrels, no counterfeiters and forgers,
and no one to cheat the printer after
lifting a paper regularly every week for
years. And if every body were hone9t
and upright, all would be happy—but
because it is otherwise, we have trouble,
misery, expense and all manner of evil.
How foolish people then are !
The magnificence of Jay Cooke's fail
ure is attested by the figures presented
to the meeting of creditors on Monday.
The total claims exceed eight millions
of dollar, of which nearly three millions
has been paid to preferred creditors, in
cluding seven hundred thousand to the
United States. On the Sth of July the
Trustee had on hand 1280,812 belonging
to the estate. The assests are varied,
ranging from debts due the estate of
"twenty-eight cents" to thousands of
shares of stocks and bonds; "Ogantr,"
the country palace ; Gibraltar Island, on
Lake Erie, the resort of overworked
parsons; "pew 35 in St. Andrews Church,"
and lands, town lots, water power, ho
tels, houses and farms, East and West;
"4,000 tons pig iron," etc., etc. No valua
tion is put on the assets.
Hoyt is not at all popular in hia own
county of Luierne. Dili is not only
popular in Union but also in Luxerne,
Iloyt's county. Where Hoyt is known
he is not liked. Where Dill is known
the people are his friends. That's the
difference.
In parts of the west the wheat crop
was damaged by storms and heat. From
a summary of over two hundred reports
received by a leading commission firm
in Milwaukee, from points in Wisconsin

crop by late Btorms and excessive beat
averages 17 per cent, in Wisconsin, 27
pgr cent in lowa and 27 per cent in Min

"There is one thing that I regret,'*
said the Fraudulent President upon
taking an effectionate leave of Mrs.
Jenks, "and that is that you are not an
Ohio woman."
A smoker in Portsmouth, N. H. f find
ing that his cigar wouldn't draw, ci"*t R
open, and discovered a cartridge, wi*h
the bullet toward the mouth end. This
is just like Hoyt—if you open him, you'l
find Cameron inside "turned toward the
mouth end."
In North Carolina, Alabama and Del
aware the republicans have determined
to make no nominations for State offi
cers. Now, then, where is this great re
publican party in the aouth, that could
carry states to make Hayes president?
It's not there.
The indications point to a gain of fire
Democratic Congressmen in Ohio and
four in Missouri. It would not be our
orising if the Democrats had a majority
of forty in the next Congress.
Oil has declined at the wells to less
than $1 per barrel. It is quoted from 80

John Sherman waa before the commit- (

The Secretary of the Interior has just
decided a question which long and vain
-1 sought settlement in past years, and
which is of great importance to settlers
on i iiblic lands, l'lte law provider thai
all lands granted to railroads, and not
sold by tbeni three years after the final
completion of the roads, shall be open to
entrv at a dollar and a quarter an acre.
Mr. Sohur* decides that this law shall
be enforced, and that the companies
cannot hold their lands at higher prices,
a- they have beeu doing. This just de
cision will open millions of acres to
entry and settlement at low rates, Ibe
companies, of course, receive the money
but they can no longer tlx a high price
on their lands.

The failure or Jay Cooke A Co. five
year* ago will always hold a sad promi

and business troubles of the present

Governor Hartranft has lasued a pro

A number of citixens of Gregg and
Walker township* have informed us of
the danger they werp in, this spring, of
having their lauds sold by our imbecile,
proecriptive Treasurer, Muaser. whose
tracts he advertised to be sold for taxes
without any right whatever. No doubt
there are numerous other eases that
were not reported to us. M e give a few
instance* &* AnjpUia of tlio work of a
selfish pnbtic officer: A prominent
farmer of near Zion tells us his land was
placed in the list without the shadow of
right under the law. and that when he
discovered it, the Treasurer made as an
excuse that he did not understand or
know any tiling ahont the business of
the office—the truth for often but rath
er humiliating adnnssiou from one who
in a book puts himself down as a "lead*
ing business man."
Again, a numher of land-owners of
Gregg township tell us their lands w ere
advertised by Masser for sale for taxes
when they held the 'proper receipts that
all taxes were paid.
These parties tell us that when the Re
porter began to expose Mosßer's incom
petency arid illegal work, they were led
to hunting op the lift of tax sales, and
not being pot in the Reporter where it
should hare been in the interests of the
landholders because every body reads
this paper, after much difficulty it was
found printed in an obscure i>aper of no
circulation, and read by no one, and
that thus by the Reporter's expose they
were saved from having their lands sold
and probably expensive law suits to re
cover their titles to their lands.
Now we should like to know what
people think ofthis pig-headed proscrip
tion by our Treasurer that would thus
lead land-owners to vexatious law-suits
and endless trouble* He advertised
contrary to the spirit of- the law which
requires that snch important work
should receive the widest publicity in
stead of hiding in an obecura and vir
tually defunct sheet. He advertised
twice contrary to law, after he was in*
formed of it, and had to UJ stopped by
the courts. He collected illegal CMS on
the larger number of the tracts and
which any who thus paid can and should
make him refund again.
Now, was all this the result of ignorant
blundering, or did the Treasurer, who
himself has been a one-horse speculator
in lands, think that by not giving the
salew proper notice as the law concern
plates, fie or some of his advisors might
have an opportunity to speculate on the
lands of his neighbors, many of whom
reluctantly voted for him? How is it?

LEGISLATIVE
ED. REPORTER:— It i with pleasure I
see tha name of our fellow citizen, Hon.
Samuel Gilliland, announced for the office
ofAsaembly. He haa consented to this at
the persuasion of some of his friends who
are ardent democrats, and who, for the
good oftbe party, desire a good man placed
on the ticket for thßt office. Mr. Gilliland
is so well and favorably known, that he
needs no praise at the bands of your writ
er. Wc, hia neighbors, would be proud to
see our friend chosen, and the party would
do itself great credit and add strength to
the ticket. He is opposed to increased sal
aries, aid when in the legislature refused
to keep the increased pay, andplaced it
back into the treasury. He is a working
man and has always favored their interests.
Hit honesty can not be called in question,
and be posscscs tbat knowledge of public
affairs which a qualified representative
needs. Let democrats act wisely and
nominate Mr. Gilliland.

Iho doctoral votes of Florida and Lou
isiana. which wore given to Hayes, bo*
longed to Tildon. Leaving out of con
aide rat ton the Stntoof Florida, which no
honest nan will deny to have baan
stolon, wo will take up Louisiana. As to
this State the Potior oomntiiloo ltaa
clear! v proved:
1. "flint a conspiracy was entered into
by certain Republican leaders, the oh*
jeet being to bold no election in last
Feliciana, Uraut and other Peinocratie
parishes.
2. That the fret that no Republican
votes were cast in last Kelieiana w.t
| not due to intimidation, as alleged, but
waa owing to Anderson'* advice to the
1 Republican lenders not to vote, tin it
would have a better ett'ect than nil the
affidavits that could be produced.
That for a period of two davs after
the election the Uepubbean leauera id*
milted thai Tildeti and Niebolls had
earned the State by a heavy majori
ty.
4. That when it became evident that
the election of Haves depended ujam
the result of the Mate, deliberate pre
parations were made for the purpose of
defeating the will of the people as ex
pressed at the polls.
5. That in pursuance of this plan,
protests, forged ami alterted to suit the
occasion, were made for the parishes <>f
Fast and West Feliciana, whereby a
Democratic majority of over ".'.sou was
changed to a Republican majority of
600. , ,
t. That the Supervim rs of the above
named parishes were prevented by
promises of reward made by John blier
man and others from ex|Kising such for
geries. . .
7. That on the 27 th day of November,
when the Hetnrulng lloakl proceeded to
stun up the result of their labors it was
discovered that while Packard and a Re
i>ublic*n Legislature were elvvteii,
Hayes w as defeated.
s. That after the above date, and in
order to secure the electoral vote for
Haves, foiged protests were made for
Kiciwanu and other parishes, and the
returns from Infayette ami otoer
parishes so changed as to increase the
Republican rote.
9. That affidavits bearing ficutiotis
names, and the names of dead men,
w ere manufactured in thoUustom House
and upon such affidavits various Demo

It), 'that the acts above recited were
known to souse of the visiting states

11. That the electoral vote of the
State, as counted before the two Houses
of Congress, was a forgery.
12. That John Sherman, now Secretary
of the Treasury, and at the time the |>er
sonal representative of Mr. Hayes, was
guilty of ::bornation of perjury.
13. That the leading parlies necessary
to a completion of the fraud were
promised by him protection and re
ward.
14. That the Fraudulent President in
fulfilment of eheriuau's ami Noyes's
promises has rewarded with office every
scoundrel connected with the great
crime in l*>th Florida and Louisiana.
15. That Stanley Matthews, a Repub*
iiean Senator from Ohio, and Justice
Harlan, a Judge of the Supreme Court,
had guilty knowledge of the fraudulent
transactions by which the vote of Lou
isiana was stolon, and personally inter
ested themselves to reward and protect
the crtmiuaia.
10. That Senator Morton and Gen.
Garfield. both member* of the Electoral
Commission, knew when they voted o
count the vote of Louisiana for Haves
that it was both fraudulent and a for

17. That senator Kellogg, who assist

turns has since been guilty of secreting
tho witnesses.
IS. That not one of the criminals who

all but two —numbering over a hundred
—have been provided with offices by
Mr. Hayes's direct order or request, and
in some cases by and through his con
tinued and persistent interference.
With few egecptjons these facts are
proved, exclusive of tho testimony of
cither Anderson or Weber, notwith
standing that the committee has only
j fairly entered upon its task.
WHO TJSA'FRED THE TAR JFt
The Morning Patriot turns to the re
con! upon tins subject, where these liars
about the tariff will beinformeti that the
Forty-first congress, iu suasion in 1569-70
passed a bill reducing the tariff on a
number of articles. The duty on pig
iron was lowered in that bill from |?.'JO
to f 7.(10 per ton. See Congressional Globe
Icr proceedings-and Tote in detail on
the pnrtia.-' "f'bill. The borty-first
congress was largely republican in the
house of representatircs, and in the sen
ate by a two-thirds majority. This bill
to reduce the tariff became a law through
the signature of Ulysses S. Grant. The
Forty-second congress, in sesaion in
1871-2, passed what is commonly known
as the I'awcs tariffbill, by which a gen
eral reduction of ten per cent, on all ar
ticles of import was made. The duty on
pig iron was again reduced in this bill.
From ff ,00 per tan it went down to f'1,30
at which it stands to-da\ *JT? C ,en P° r
cent, reduction bill was introduced in
the lionse of representatives by Hon.
Henry 1- I'awes, then chairman of the
committee of ways and means. After
prolonged debnte and some unimpon
tant additions and amendments the
house passed the bill on the 20th of May
1572, by a vote of 149 to 01. Among the
republicans voting for the bill were N.
P. Hanks, Henjamin F. Hutler, Henry L.
Dawes, Charles Foster (Ohio), J. A. Gar
field, George V. Hoar, <l. IV, M'C'rary
(now secretary of war), Famuel Shclla
barger, James X. Tyner (afterwards
postmaster general), W. A. Wheeler
(now dc facto Vice President) and
Jeremiah M. Wilson. These were the
leaders of the republican side of the
house in that congress. The bouse was
largely republican, but scarcely more
than one-fourth of the republican mem
bers recorded their votes against the |
passage of the bill. See for detailed
vote Congressional Globe for the Forty- j
second congress, page 3b,12. The bill
went to the senate and was discussed
and amended in some slight particulars
by that branch reaching its final passage
there on the 30th of May, 1872, but three
senators, Messrs. Chandler of Michigan,
Scott of Pennsylvania and Sprague of
Rhode Island, votiug in the negative.
Senator Cameron was absent. Among
the republican senators votiog for the
bill were Messrs. Anthony, Carpenter,
Conkling, Fenton, Ferry of Michigan
(now president of the senate), Freling
liuysen, Harlan, Howe, laigan, Morrill
of Maine, Morrill of Vermont, Morton,
Nye, Ramsay and Sherman (now secre
tary of the treasury). It i needless to
add that these men shaped the policy
of the republican side of the senate nor
need we remind the reader that the
democratic membership of the senate
constituted then hut about one-fourth of
the entire hotly. For detailed vote see
Congressional Globe Forty-Becond con
gress, page 4088. The bill as it passed
the senate went to a conference commit
tee of the two houses whose report was
adopted by the house June 4, 1872,
without a division (see Congressional
Globe- for Forty-second congress, page
4212) and by the senate on the same day
also without amendment (see same vol
ume of Globe, page 42JG). The bill re
ceived the signature of Ulysses S. Grant
and Is the law of the land to-day.

It appears by thesu tlgures that tho dem
ocratic house appropriated twenty-eight
and a half milliens less than tho estimates;
that tho republican senate raised the bills
of the house more than fourteen millions,
and that the laws as passed excesded the
house grants by nearly ten millions. In
the last congress, when ths house Com
menced the work of retu-ttig the public

millions from the budget of economy, and

Introduced hie then a by quoting a para*
rmph found in a volume of soi tnons by
Pr. Adams, of Hoston, Just from the press,
whsreln thors is an expression to ths effect
that nothing will occupy ths thoughts of
seme through eternity more than their
wnder wl.y Hod loved them and that lie
condescended to ask them twice that they
should give their love to Him The quo#,
lien, the preacher continued, which had
frequently occupied hi* own mind was
whether lis iiad permission from any roy.

preme Using, and if He would give him
anything in rnturn. Could ho walk
through life with the ronscisusnox of hav

log in some of the public .puis, er

ipay see a king or emperor pats. It u said
to be a privilege, and hats are raised in
token ef respect, and possibly of admira
tion. Ihe laws of auch a sovereign are
obeyed, but he is far front bis subjects
and it teems that he has but little interest
in than personal aggrandise
ment, '1 here are no ties between the mas
ter and the subject, excepting, perhaps,
those of selQstiness on the part et the for
mer. Friendship with earthly ktngs has
hut little value. With liod, who is the
Ring of Kings and the Lord of Lords, it
is vastly different. Po you wonder, then,
that this Lord Las any interest in such as
w ? lam only a keggor, seeking for a
crust at the rising of the sua and the soft
est pillow that I can find at the going down
of the same. It is a matter of womfer that
my name is written in the book ol such a
fixing, and it is still more surprising that
all the actions, all the trilling as well as
the important things, are noted, and that
tto cares for what Ido and bow I dolt
This truth U so beyond the roach ol oao'e
intellect, beyond the grasp et the imagin
ation, that we must stop and think the
matter ores. Il this be true then we look
al everything with a different eye, and we
have no right to say in regard to serious
subjects, "This is no mailer." There s>
something in thodoctine which checks us
and leads us to better doing, to always be
•t our best and doing eur best.

A SOUTH AMERICAN HORROR-
Twenty-five Men Attempt to Back a
Town and are Killed,
rimmt, July Id.—Peruvian journal*
publish an account of a horrible atrocity
in tbo Pravinca of llualgayec. Some
months ago a number of persons from the
town of San Pablo arrived at San Miguel
for the purpose of having a baptism per
formed in the latter place. After the re
ligious ceromeny, those present proceeded
to a piece ef diversion, where after tho
consumption of a good .■! of Ijcjij.or, a
scrimmage occurred between the parties
from San Miguel and those from|San
Pablo, which resulted in the death of one
of the former sad the detention of some
others. A few days afterwards a number
of San Pablinoi proceeded in San Miguel
and forcibly rescued their imprisoned
friends, threatening to rctUJn bpfflfe lonf
to take vengoance for tha blood of their
townsman- At the beginning of the pros
ent month the town of San Miguel was
invaded by twenty-five individuals from
San Pablo, well armed and furnished witb
munitions, who began to sack the town,
behaving with tI)P greatest brutality and
cruelty. The inhabitants aseandod the
church towers, rtng tho bells to give the
alarm ar.d attacked the invaders with un
controllable fury. The result was that
fifteen of the gang were instantly killed,
and tho remaining ten weie severely
wounded and taken prisoners. On the
following day tho latter were ulso lifeless, >
and tho public squaro of Salt Miguel of-
fared ths revolting spectacle of twenty*
lire corpsesstrewn in all directions.
SPIDERS' EYES.
Tito more you study into things, the
more wonders you will find, even in
things so small as the eyre of a spider
Eight is the usual number a spider
has, and in each branch of thejfatnilv
thejr are differently arranged to stilt
their way of life. Thoee which live
in caves, or dark holus, and need enly
to see before them, have all the eye#
in u group ott the front of the head.
Spiders which live in a welt have the
pyes raised, so that they can see all a
bout them, and those of the family
which travel about and hunt their l
prey have them more scattered. Tbey
are very beautiful, too looking unv
microscope—like round polished
diamonds.
