WM. LEWIS ' - }EDITons
HUGH LINDSAY,
The "Globe" has the largest number of
readers of any other paper published in the
county. Advertisers should remember this.
Editorial Brevities.
THE total receipts from the internal
revenue for. the fiscal year, will reash
$175,000,000.
THE $lOO,OOO appropriation for a
new expedition to the North Pole has
passed the U. S. Senate.
A bill for the gradual abolition of
slavery was introduced into the Span
ish Cortes on Saturday.
CONGRESS, it is now eipeeted will bo
able to adjourn on July 11—four days
earlier than the appointed time.
FIVE millions of gold. are to bo sold
and eight millions of bonds boUght
by Seorotary Boutwoll during June.
4 , WE want, if possible, a thoroughly
honest Legislature for 1871," says a
cotemporary. To which we say amen.
DURING 1867 there were built in the
United States 65588 miles of railroad,
nearly twice as many as any previous
year.
THE Sandwich Island Reciprocity
Treaty was defeated in the Senate by
a vote of 20 yeas to 19 nays—two
thirds being necessary to carry it.
A colored cadet named Michael
Howard is at West Point, He appears
to understand the "situation" as well
as his.white comrades.
WAYNE MoVmatt, son-in-law to Si
mon Cameron, has been appointed
Minister to Turkey. Hon. E. Joy
Morris has held the position for nine
years.
CONGRESS has agreed thuthenceforth
the amount of exemption under the
income tax shall be 62000, and the tax
on incomes above that amount throe
per cent.
A shameful slaughter of Jews in
Roumania has been perpetrated by the
Christians. Our government has been
importuned to take some action in the
matter, and we hope it will.
Two Indian chiefs named Spotted
Tail and Red . Cloud are at Washington
consulting the authorities with regard
to their wrongs and rights. They do
not wish their reservations invaded,
and prefer to live at peace with the
white man.
Tux Post office department, under
the able management of General Cress
well, is getting in a healthy condition
—the receipts now bulanCing the ex
penses. It is to be hoped the franking
privilege will be abolished so that the
department will yield a handsome
revenue:
.THE subject of taxing Government
bonds was before Congress last week,
Mr. Beck, a Democrat, introduced the
amendment, which was debated at
come length : Butler favored the scheme
together with twenty-nine other Re
publicans, while Schenck opposed it.
The vote was nays 110 and yeas 78.
THE business of appointing Luxuri
ous Committees has boon commenced
by Congress. The first one appointed
is a Senatorial Committee to go with a
clerk and Sergeant-at-arms up and
down the Mississippi river, to ascertain
the peoPlo's views on the levee ques
tion— We suppose the clerk will do
all the work, while the rest travel at
the expense of the Government. This
is a piece of extravagance that the
people have no delight in, no matter
what tho legislators may think.
se ‘ One•damaging fact must be re
membered by Republicans, that at least
nine of every teu, (and perhaps a II,)
of the men holding office in and from
this county received from Senator
Scott and Congressman Morrell, voted
with the Democrats last fall and de
feated Republican nominees for the
Legislature and county offices.. Men
acting such a part may bo tolerated in
the party but they cannot be permit
ted to lead. Mr. Morrell know what
the disorganizers' programme was,and
he knew that Mr. Scott was at the
head of it, and it was his duty as a
party man to require his friends to
support a party 'ticket. If', Mr. Mor
rell had given his influence for the tick.
et it would have been elected and the
party would now be is a healthy con
dition.
• A NOTABLE INCIDENT.—The respect
of the President for the memory of his
fallen comrades, as well as dislike of
oven appearanees of ceremonious dis
play, were illustrated the other day,
on the occasion of the dew)rative cere
monies, at Arlington, after a majority
of the spectators had left the cemetery.
The President and Mrs. Grant procee
ded in their carriage to a comparative
ly retired section of ground, where the
President,llevoted some time to strew
ing the graves. movements were
remarked, however, by a few lingerers
at the graves of departed relatives or
friends, and thus the incident became
known.
"INVISIBLE" at Harrisburg, corres
pondent of the Blair Co Badical,writes
like a thief,lies like a thief and we have
no doubt is a thief, and a oowardly one
at that. He is just the kind of a fel
low anxious office seekers employ to
do their dirty work.
TUE dissatisfied ones who would like
to leave home and go to the West aro
informed that there is already too much
migration thither, and many of the
Cities, from Michigan to Kansa°, ire
full of mechanics and laboring men
who can find no employinent, and la
bor is cheaper there than in the East.
At Humboldt only a few days ago
were about a thousand emigrant wag
ons filled with crying women and chil
dren, whose tears reproach at once the
folly of their husbands and fathers and
the cruelty of those who bade theta
shako off the dust of the East and ad
vance upon the West like an army
with banners. For the last five weeks
the region has been cracked and warp
ed by drouth, water can hardly be ob
tained, and thus to tho pains of bun•
ger are added the intolerable pangs of
thirst. Emigrants to the West are re
turning in large bands, thankful only
that their lives have not been lost.—
Kansas is so overcrowded that it is
next to impossible for a traveler to find
any sort of accommodation, and labor
is a drug.
Se•Sorno dissatisfaction exists in
certain quarters in regard to Sunday
Schools and their management; some
persons finding fault with the number
of young persons employed as teach
ers; others denouncing the character
of the libraries selected; and one rev
creed individual declared himself hos
tile to the Sabbath School because the
"word is unknown in the Bible," and
another pronounced the f t Sabbath
School to be "ono of the greatest evils
of the time," adding that four-fifths of
the convicts in Now York penitentiary
were found to have been pupils of the
Sabbath School." These arguments
show to what extent the denunciators
of the Sabbath School have had their
eyes opened, and we think they need
a better acquaintance with the moral
teachings there inculcated before they
proceed with their denunciation.
raLThe folloWing exhibit of figures
obtained at the General Land Office
shows the disposition we are making
of our public lands : Taken up, 12,201,-
980 acres; granted to soldiers for ser
vices prior to the rebellion, 61,076,922
acres; schools, asylums, universities
and agricultural colleges, 70,282,787
acres; swamp lands given to States,
47,875,245 acres; granted to States for
internal improvements, 12,403,054 acs.
saline lands given to States, 514,585
acres; granted to individuals and corn
panics, 11,195,567 acres; in aid of ca
nals, as above stated, 1,450,000 acres;
in aid of wagon roads, 3,782,212 acres;
and in aid of railroads, 182,108,581
acres. This shows that 401,890,934
acres have been already disposed of.
The publio domain undonated, not in
cluding the Alaska purchase, is 1,206,-
756,563 acres.
,Because we are in favor of clear
ing the'track of stumbling blocks for
the race for Congress next fall, some
earnest friends of Mr. Morrell, (at least
they want to be so considered that
they may be permitted to stay "in"
or get "in,") have got their "backs up"
at us and think wo should not have
any influence with Republicans. If
the whole party had taken our advice
last year, its "situation" would not now
be as uncertain as it is—and it may be
worse if a now mail should not be no
minated.
The Senate.
HUNTINGDON, PENN'A , 1
Jane oth, 1870.
_
Editors Globe :—My attention has
been called to a letter in a late num
ber of the Hollidaysburg Register, in
which the readers of that—paper aro
informed that your humble servant
has withdrawn his name as a candidate
for the nomination of Senator in this
district. This is news to me; I did
not know before that my name had
been mentioned in connection with
such nomination, nor do I know now
that it is withdrawn. At any rate, I
am as much a candidate now as I was
before that letter' in the Register was
written. I have always held the doc
trine, and hold it still, (and this I sup
pose is one reason that I never was
much troubled with holding office,)
that the office should seek the candi
date, and not the eandidato the office ;
nevertheless I should esteem it a great
honor to be chosen by the people of
this district to represent them in the
State Senate, and should promise to
servo them faithfully and honestly. A
nomination to be worth anything at
this time must come from the people
and be made by them. Politibians and
office-seekers may by management suc
ceed in fixing up a ticket, but I am
very much mistaken in the temper of
the, times if the people• at the polls
will ratify any such private arrange
ments. Respectfully Yours,
D. BLAIR.
One of the most singular sights
growing out of the war is a continu
ous line of poach trees of nearly fifty
miles in length, around Petersburg,
and extending towards 'Richmond.
They are growing from the breast
works thrown up by the rebel army,
and are the only legacy left by the
rebels who were on the advance. Hav
ing oaten of the fruit while on picket
duty, they cast the seed aside, and
now they appear in ono continuous
line - of forty-five miles of beautiful
trees, which yielded an abundant crop
the last year.
An Ohio quince grower has been
very successful for two years past
with his fruit. His treatment of the
tree is very simple. He spades the
ground of his orchard every spring,
and scatters a peck of coal ashes
around each tree. He finds salt the
best manure for the quince, and ap
plies about one quart to the ground
under each tree after the soil has been
spaded, and another quart when the
quinces are about half grown. Last
year be sold three hundred bushels of
quinces from his orchard of throe.
fourths of an acre.
Letter from Kansas,
LIBERTY, MONTGOMERY CO.,
Kansas. May 23d, 1870.
Editors Globe :—From this frontier
county, in the spirit of greeting an old
friend, do I send you a short commu
nication, although for some time I
have ceased to cater to the tastes of
the "dear reading public." To day,
riding along the banks of the Yerdigris
river, I was reminded of your—shall I
not say our—own beautiful Juniata,
save that gracing its banks there were
not the long lines of fencing, nor any
of the evidences that man had long
been plying his arts and arms; only
the hut of the squatter, and the in
couth wigwams of Indians, now almost
deserted, their former occupants hav
ing gone on their spring hunt, !caving
only some of their squaws to attend
the corn or "Squaw potatoes," as the
Indians term the meagrely cultivated
spots.
This is the Mecca to American Pil
grims at present. The first white set
ter came here a little over one year ago.
To day within its borders is a popula
tion of at least 10,000 souls. Mon
from every State in the Union, nay,
almost every country in the world

industrious Swede, the glib-tongued
Son of Erin, tho witty Yankee, and
last and least, the dirty, theiving red
skin.
Mr. Editor, you cannot conceive the
true condition of the "Dime Novel,"
noble red man without seeing him in
his native state, He may be doomed
to utter extinction, but never to civil
zation. The Quaker agents aro not a
success so far as tried here, and are
very unpopular with the settlers. They
are trying to make house dogs of the
Indians, but will learn that the blood
hound propensities will never be eradi
cated. All those pretty appeals to hu
manity over the Baker Massacre thro'
eastern papers "go down" like nause
ous drugs, to border men, who know
the Indian's dog-like traits.
I have met hero, many Pennsylvania
farmers, who have sold the old home
farm, that they might come whore
land is cheap, and get "all the boys a
place" as they express it. They are in
variably pointed out the beet farmers,
'and I found this the case everywhere
I have been west. This land has nev
er been treated for, yet the claims are
all occupied and to-day I stood on an
eminence and counted 150 houses scat
tered over the prairie as far as oyo
could reach, where one year ago not
one structure stood. Cattle have suffi
cient grazing to support them through
out the winter in an ordinary season ;
the soil is excellently adapted for ce
reals, and the land only awaits devel
aprnent by the hard sinewed pioneer
farmer to make it an accession to our
wealth that will have a realizing ef
fect throughout all our broad land.

Massaore of Jews.
CONSTANTINOPLE ; Juno 1, 2 p. m.—A
fearful war of religious intolerance
has broken out in the Province of
Nomuelia, the Metropolitan Province
of the Turkish empire in the south of
Europe. For sometime the native
Christians have manifested a spirit of
fearful vindictiveness against the Jew
ish population who have endeavored
in vain to obtain from the Govern
ment some protection against outrage
and extortion. A secret movement
has been:in organization for the ox.
termination of the inoffensive Jews,
and the deep and deadly hatred of
the bigoted populace has only been
slumbering awaiting a vent for its
fury. On Sunday last, by a precon
eerted signal the Christian, populace
rose and the fearful work of butcher
ing was inaugurated. At an early
hour the houses of all the Jews were
invaded, and those of the occupants
who were unable to escape were mas
sacred in cold blood. The fleeing Is
raelites were pursued through the
town by the mob and murdered
whereever caught, men, women and
children were ruthlessly slain. The
fury of the populace was inflamed by
religious bigotry, and only exhausted
itself for want of victims. In all the
principal towns the fearful work of
butchery prevailed, and thousands of
men, women and children of the re
pugnant class were butchered in cold
blood. Tho work of slaughter still
goes on in the interior, and nothing
has been heard yet of any movement
by the authorities to suppress it. The
reigning Prince is absent from tho
province, and advantage was taken of
this' to complete the total extermina
tion of all Jews from the province.
Prince Charles is, hurrying home,
and energetic measures will at once
be taken by the Sultan •to suppress
this religious omeuto. ' Meanwhile the
fury of the mob continues unabated,
finding fresh victims to glut its inset.
late frenzy. •
Exploits of a Female Sheriff.
An lowa paper gives the following
cheering account of the efficiency of a
lady sheriff in that State;
It is reserved to lowa to produce
the first female sheriff, and to Des
Moines county to be the first in the
State to accord to a woman the diffi
cult and trying duties .of the sheriff
alty. It is true the people have not
formally elected a lady as sheriff of
this county, but in so far as practice
is bettor than precept,' tho substance
superior to the shadow, • and the deed
greater than the name, to that extent
Des Moines county has a lady sheriff.
Of course wo allude to the estimable
wife of our worthy sheriff, J. H. Latty,
Esq. Mrs. Latty at various times has
displayed a remarkable coolness and
nerve in the management of the coun
ty jail, over which eho presides, with
a firmness of judgment and a vigor of
rule rarely excelled by the best of
prison wardens.
At ono time a desperado confined
in one of the cells attempted to escape
by making a man of straw reclining
on his couch as usual, while the flesh
and blood prisoner secreted himself
in an empty cell and waited the advent
of Mrs. Latty, who; in the absence of
her husband, entered the jail room to
lock up the prisoners for the night:—
When she came to the cell containing
the man of straw, a very clever imita
tion of a man asleep, she called his
name, and hearing no response, enter
ed and detected the cheat. Instead of
calling for help in an emergency which
plainly indicated a plot and a determi
nation tipon the part of ono or more
prisonmis to break jail, Mrs. Latty
quickly proceeded to the other cell
and marched the prospective fugitive
hack to his cell and locked him up.
As ho was a heavy, muscular man,
and the deputy sheriff a slender, light
built woman, it, ie evident that nerve
triumphed over, muscle. _ Womanly
courage is more than a match for bru
tal force and the desperation of a
criminal seeking to flee from the bands
of justice.
On another occasion, two young
men in a cell refusing to cease their
profane and boisterous language, the
deputy entered the cell and gave them
a sound flogging with a whip, until,
with tears in their eyes, the rascals
promised better behavior.
The last exploit of our deputy, and
one which recalled to our mind the
preceding incidents, was the taking of
a prisoner to the penitentiary a few
days ago. „A. man who bad been ar
rested for stealing a carpet bag at the
Union depot in this city, last January,
was sentenced at the last term of the
district court to two years' imprison
ment in, the penitentiary, and was
taken to Fort Madison by Mrs. Laity
alone, without any assistance from
others, and duly delivered to Warden
Ilelsey. The astonishment of the
warden and the Fort Madisonians
know no bounds.
A Woman Shoots a Burglar.
About 11 o'clock last night the resi
dence of Dr. Gotchell, No: 1-43(1 Spruce
Street, was entered through a back
window by a burglar, who succeeded
in gathering together a number of
silver forks, knives, spoons, wearing
apparel, etc. Like "Little Oliver,"
not satisfied, ho desired more, and ac
cordingly commenced ransacking the
parlor. At the time-Dr. Gotchell was
absent on a visit to one or his patients,
and no male adult, other than the
burglar, was in the house. Mrs. Got
chell, in her bedchamber overhead,
hoard • the noise in the par!or, and at
once surmised the cause, but not
knowing how many or how few per
sons were in the house, she for a time
kept quiet.
At length she determined to brave
the danger and make a rccotillGiSSlMCO.
Accordingly she quietly made her
way down stairs, and approaching the
parlor door, which was partially open,
discovered but the one person, candle
in hand, searching for plunder. Now
Mrs. Getcho although a woman,
does not lack courage, a quality some
would have us believe no woman pos
sesses, and finding but one thief in the
house she determined to give him bat
tle. Making her . way up stairs again,
as noiselessly as , she had descended,
she secured her, husband's revolver,
and once more proceeded down stairs.
When near the bottom, the stairway
made a squeaking noise, and the thief
taking alarm, abed out of the parlor
and past Mrs. Getchell. Although the
shOck was sudden she remained firm,
and coolly taking aim, fired at and
wounded the burglar, although whore,
or to what extent, is not now known.
The rascal kepton,clambered through
the window by which he had entered
into the yard; then on to a hydrant,
then over the fe'nee and escaped. An
examination of c the premises showed
that the burglitiAad bled profusely, as
splotches of the brintson .were discer
nible all along the hall way, on the
window sill, in the yard, and on the
fence. It is unnecessary to add that
he secured no plunder• other than
the leaden pellet 'which ho carried as
a souvenir of Mrs. Getchell's skill

Doings of a Rat.
Nzw YORK, Juno 2.—A few days
since Mrs. Smith, residing in East
Brooklyn,was attracted by the screams
of a child, sleeping in one of the upper
rooms of the house. As she entered
the room a large rat sprang from the
cradle and made his escape, and Mrs.
Smith discovered the child's leg muti
lated. A physician was called, but
the child sickened and died in' a few
days.
Mrs. Smith had taken a poor woman
to live with her, who bad a child about
the same ago as the ono she bad lost.
This woman left the child asleep for a
short time, and, alarmed by hearing
it scream, s he hastened to it, and
found the rat just making his escape.
He had bitten the child severely in
the neck, severing some of the cords.
This child, like the other, immediate
ly sickened and died.
