Laws Relating to Newspaper Subscrip
tions and Arrearages.
The following is the law relating to newspapers and
subscribers.
1. tabs:ribers who do not give exprese notice to the con
trary, are considered wishing to continue their sub
seription,
2. if subscribers order the discontinuance of their peri
odicals, the publishers may continue to trend them until
all arrearages are paid.
3. lisubscrilx.re neglect or refit's@ to take their periodical@
from the office to which they are directed, they are held
responsible until they nave settled their bille, and order
ed them discontinued.
♦. If subscribers move to other places without informing
the publishers, and the papers are sent to the former di
rection, they are held responsible.
5. The Courts hare decided that ' refusing to take period!.
ails from the office, or removing and leaving them un
called for, is prima jack evidence of intentional fraud.
6• Any person who receives a newspaperand makes use
of it, whether he has ordered it or not, is held in law to
be a subscriber.
T. If subscribers pay in advance, they are bound to give
notice to the publisher, at the end of their time, if they
do net wish to continue taking it; otherwise the pub
lisher is authorized to send it on, and the subscriber
will be responsible until an express notice, with payment
of all arrears, is sent to the publisher.
a The Mississippi floods are subsiding
and the planters and merchants are hope
ful.
The Democrats have consented to
the confirmation of the new judges. They
got tired blocking the Senate and turned
off the brakes. We commend their good
sense.
iegt. The Louisville and Portland Canal
bill, which was so ably championed by
Senator Scott, when before the Senate, has
passed the House. This is a great tri
umph for the friends of river commerce.
spy The Bill for a Uniform Series of
School Books throughout the State, as
amended and passed by the Senate, ap
pears to give pretty general satisfaction to
the • people. Of course the publishing
houses are fighting it, which, of course,
is to be expected.
seit.. The squabbling Governors of Ar
kansas are atill growling in the neighbor
hood of Little Rock. Neither of them is
remarkable for honesty of purpose, and the
people of the State are beginning to feel
that it would be utter foolishness in them
to shed blood in defense of either.
NI. Hon L. Q. C. Lamar's eulogy upon
thelife and public services of Hon. Charles
Sumner, was one of the moat magnan
imous tributes ever uttered by a violent
political opponent, over the grave of a fall
en antagonist. He deserves the commen
dation of every true patriot in the land—
North and south.
The Washington special correspon
dence of the Philadelphia Press states, on
the highest authority, that the President
had made a formal tender of the Secretary
ship of the Treasury to Joseph Patterson,
of Philadelphia, which had been declined.
It is further represented that the President
is bent on giving the office to some Penn
sylvanian, and that J. Donald Cameron is
now prominently mentioned in connection
with the place.
icsi_ The House Apportionment Bill,
which links us to Bedford to form a Sen
atorial district, has passed the House finally.
The probabilities are that the Senate will
not accept the House amendments and the
bill will go to a Committee of Conference.
We are perfectly satisfied with our neigh
bor Bedford. The interests of the two
counties are identical.
Since writing the above the Bill has
gone to a Committee of Conference.
agtit.The cause of Cremation, looked upon
with horror by one class, sneered at by
another, and warmly advocated by another,
seems to be rapidly gaining ground. The
Medical Record of New York, says that a
German correspondent of the British Med.
Journal, writes that the merits of the new
system of disposing of dead bodies are
shortly to be tested by actual experiment,
in Saxony, the two principal towns of
which, Dresden and Leipsic, have offered
to legalize it as an optional course, suppos
lug its advocates can practically make good
their assertions in its firm. We are fur
the informed that a furnace for cremation
is actually in process of construction, the
cost of which is estimated at £250. It is
calculated that the complete combustion of
a human corpse will require about an hour.
The number of persons who have enrolled
themselves as members of the Cremation
Society in Zurich amounts to at least four
hundred. The subject has, like all others
at which the world stood aghast, made
great and rapid inroads upon the old and
and well founded prejudices.
arm The following is a copy of the bill,
and the vote thereon, referred to in our
last paper, as having passed the House on
first reading, 55 yeas to 37 nays. It will
be seen that our Representative voted
against granting license to brewers and
distillers to manufacture and sell in Local
Option counties :
SECTION 1. Belt enacted, &c., That it
is the true intent and meaning of the act
of 27th March, 1872, relating to the grant
ing of license to sell intoxicating liquors,
that license shall be granted to brewers
and distillers to manufacture and sell malt
brewed, vinious and spirituous liquors in
the different counties of this Common
wealth agreeably to the laws in existence
at the time said act and supplement were
passed, anything in those acts to the con
trary notwithstanding.

"We do not hesitate to say that from our
own knowledge of the condition of affairs in
this county, having read the public prints gen-
EDITOR erally once a week, that the parties are enga
ged in in grossly libelling each other as well
as private citizens and have been for months;
and the other parties are just as liable to pro
secution as you are, and so far as this Court
is concerned they will meet with precisely the
same punishment, without distinction of par
ties or persons."—Judge Dean.
This looks to us like a deliberate slander,
legally speaking, upon us and others, good
citizens of this county, perpetrated to miti
gate a sentence. It certainly is a peculiar
kind of dictum, and the threat, to say the
least, is puerile. It is the Judge's duty
to adjudicate that which comes before him
—NOTHING MORE. If we'should ever be
so unfortunate as to find ourself in the
presence of His Honor, arraigned for ma
licious words, we will insist upon his try
ing us according to the law and the evi
dence, and if we should be convicted, we
will insist further that he sentence us ac
cording to the measure of our offense,
without regard to the actions of others,
and we will expect him to have the discre
tion to confine himself to the case before
him.

NEW YORK, May 4, 1874.
INFLATION-THE VETO.
The financial circles of the city were agi
tated last Wednesday to a degree seldom
seen. It was known that on that day the
President would either sign or veto the
currency law, and the whole money inter
est of the city hung breathless on the
event. The wires were burdened with de
spatches to Washington, for every specula
tor desired to have the first intelligence of
the fate of the bill, that he might buy or
sell, as the case might be. All sorts of
lies were put afloat. One moment it would
be announced that the President had sign
ed the bill; the next that he would send
in a veto message, and so on. At last, at
about 2 P. at., came the authoritative an
nouncement, "the President has vetoed
the Senate Finance Bill," which set the
matter at rest. Immediately those who
were operating for a rise in Governments
became jubulant, and those who were gam
bling for a fall were correspondingly de
pressed. The rich men out of business,
were gratified beyond measure, while the
younger men in active business felt that a
sure prop had been knocked out from un
der them. The papers of the city, , ithout
an exception, approve the act of the Presi
dent. Even the Tribune has a good word
for him. .But there is a strong party in
the city that desires an increase of curren
cy ; and it is a power. The papers 3o not
echo public sentiment in New York on this
matter. The question is an important one,
and will show itself in next fall's elections.
CREMATION.
The idea of burning the bodies of the
dead instead of burying them is gaining
favor rapidly. The matter is being - dis
cussed every day in all the papers ;
the
churches have been appealed to for their
opinion; in short, there is a great deal of
genuine feeling on the subject. And the
feeling is all in favor of it. The idea of
"avoiding the decomposition of the dead—
of reducing the mortal remains to ashes,
and preserving the ashes, strikes the peo
ple as something of an improvement. The
clergymen have given it as their opinion
that it in no way crosses the dogmas of the
church, and everybody seems to favor it
—but the undertakers. It would be hard
on them. They see in this movement an
abolition of the ug'y coffin with. its sickly
smell—of the gorgeous hearse, with its
ghastly trappings, of carriages and all the
absurd and costly accompanyings of funer
als. Instead of all this, a dead body re.
solved into the elements in a simple way
by the action of fire, and the remains, a
handful of whitish-gray ashes, placed rev
erently in an urn, and kept as a sacred
household treasure. Is not this better
than burying? I think so;
and so does
almost all of New York. Indeed, a so
ciety has been formed to introduce it, the
members binding themselves to direct in
their wills that their bodies shall be burn
ed instead of buried. It already numbers
eight hundred.
GALVIN,
convicted of the robbery of a jewelry store
on Ninth avenue, and sentenced to twenty
years in the penitentiary, was very recently
a keeper in the Tombs ! 1 mention this to
show the style of men who attain place un
der the City Government. This man's
character was as well known before his ap
pointment as it is now; in fact it was,
probably, his character that gave hint the
appointment. A robber, an official in a pris
on ! Is it any wonder that great criminals
have cared nothing fbr imprisonment or
conviction ? All they had to do was to
"stake" such a keeper as Galvin and the
doors would fly open.
How many Galvius arc yet in these
places? The Democracy are in control of
the city; the same kind of men that put
Galvin in his place have yet the appoint
ing power. New York is in a bad way.
MOCK AUCTIONS.
The mock auction business, which the
authorities got under some years ago, has
broken out afresh within a few months.—
The Bowery is full of them. Stores filled
with the vilest pot-metal jewelry, with the
tongueist of auctioneers and the usual as
sortment of ropers•in and bidders at the
door, are becoming as plenty as in the old
days before the police killed them out.—
The young man from the country is roped
; the "genuine gold watch" is put up;
he buys it; and while the "guaranty" is
being made out it is adroitly changed, and
he finds when away that lie has paid $4O,
$5O or $6O for a eameern that would be
dear at five dollars a bushel. It• is a fact
that respectable jewelers have been driven
out of localities by these Peter Funk con
cerns. Rascality is irrepressible; hold it
in one way and it will break out in
another.
FEMALE DOCTORS
There IR very much that is bad in New
York, and a great deal that is good. One of
the best of the good things is the idea of
the female physician. There are over fifty
regular practising physicians in the city of
the softer sex—women who have gone
through a regular course of study and hos
pital practice. And they have practice,
too. Few of them have an income of less
than 3,000 per annum, and a number of
them earn as much as $lO,OOO. Their
practice is, of course, entirely among wo
men and children, and it is claimed by
those who employ them that they are snore
successful than physicians of the other sex.
There is a reason for this. The invalid
woman can confide more fully in a woman
than she can in a man, and it is more fit
ing that women should stand at the bed
sides of women. There are four colleges
in the city devoted to the training of wo
men for this wide field of usefulnes. There
cannot be too many of them.
BUSINESS AND RUM.
Business has been dull, fiat and unprofit
able all last fall and all last winter, and it
continues in the same state of health now.
The merchants have made no money, and
the same is true of all the professions.—
And yet there has been more fine, costly
liquors consumed in this city this winter
than ever before. The amount of costly
champagnes that have been drank is real
ly startling. Now one would suppose
that when money is scarce and tight, and
business dull, that men would economize
in their luxuries. But it does not so work.
The harder the times the more expensive
the potations. Does a man get desperate
from adversity? That is the question.—
The tailors, shirtmakers, shoemakers—ev
erybody who furnishes necessities—have
suffered from the hard times, because men
have worn their old clothes to enconotnize;
but the same men are drinking the most
costly drinks money can buy. Curious,
isn't it?
RAPID TRANSIT.
The city is and has been for years trying
to get some better way to get from one end
of the island to the other, but so fir to no
purpose. With the exception of the ele
vated railway on the west side of the city,
there is nothing better or faster than the
common horse-car or the primitive stage,
and as the companies owning these lines
have untold wealth, and as everything in
Albany is governed by money, it is prob
able that there will be nothing devised for
years to terse their place. But it is a ter
rible want, nevertheless. It takes half the
people of the city a full hour to get from
their homes to their places of business,
which takes two hours of the twenty-four
in travel. Then the discomfort of the
travel is something fearfzi. If it rains,
the cars swarm with people. Every seat
is occupied, the aisle is crowded with stand
ing men and women, the platforms front
and rear are jammed, even the steps are
occupied.
News and Notes from Washington
Congress—Last Act in the Defeat of the
Currency Bill—Why Currency is Scarce
—Public Debt and Revenue Progress.
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 1, 1874.
THE CURRENCY BILL VETO IN THE SENATE.
The Currency bill was finally disposed of in
the Senate on Tuesday. It bad been returned
a week before with the President's Veto, ac
companied by a message stating his .reasons
for his action. It will be remembered that
the bill originated in the Senate. When it
was returned without the President's signa
ture, it was, on motion, laid on the table,
without a word of debate.
On Tuesday the bill and the message were
taken up,and in the same spirit,without debate
or comment, except in a conversational way
on a collateral point, the question was put,
"Shall the bill pass, notwithstanding the Pres
ident's objections ?" Thirty-four Senators
responded in the affirmative,as they had voted
on the passage of the bill, and thirty voted in
the negative. The majority in favor being
less than two-thirds, the bill was, of course,
lost.
Other more practical measures are under
consideration to afford the West a larger vol
ume of currency, one of which is a transfer of
$25,000,000 from Eastern States.
But after all, the position is unanswerable
that it is not more currency, but the means,
or disposable values, necessary to command
the use of the currency already issued that the
Western business men most need. They have
all been pushing into new business beyond
their capital, increasing their stocks, enlarging
their farms and their manufactories, investing
in new railroad schemes, or in other ways
putting their capital beyond their control.
Now they find themselves "short." It was
stated in a previous letter that the number of
miles of railway in the United States had been
doubled in ten or twelve years. The statis
tics were not then at hand ; but I have since
obtained the official returns, which are as fo
lows:
1864. Total number of miles,
1865 . 11 Lt
1866 . It tt 41
1871. " " "
Here it is shown that the increase was neat
ly 100 per cent. in five years, (1866 to 1871
and that it was over 100 per cent. in six year
(1865 to 1871), by nearly a thousand miles.
In the same way, in almost every other direc
tion, the development has been rapid beyond
all former experience. The business men have
all gone beyond their means. When Jay
Cooke & Co., hitherto rated as among the
wealthiest banking firms in the United States,
went down the people were astounded and
filled with alarm. Confidence wai,destroyed,
and capitalists, small and large, who could
control a dollar, withdrew it from circulation
.for safety. Much of it is yet hoarded, and
this is the real secret of the scarcity of cur
rency, now so severely felt by business men.
If any of your readers question the logic of
my argument, or the pertinency of the railroad
illustration, on the ground that the railways
were built on borrowed capital obtained in
Europe, my reply is that only a comparatively
small portion o" this immense investment of
$1,440,000,000 came from abroad. Foreign
capitalists, especially in later years, have been
slow to invest in United States railroad bonds
or stocks; they were "shy" and preferred
United States bonds or other securities. A
very large proportion of the capital put into
railroads during the last tea years, came from
the pockets of the property owners along the
line of the proposed railway, and from others
who expected to be benefitted by its construc
tion. Another very considerable amount came
from small capitalists who owned from one to
thirty thousand dollars above the necessities
fo their business or immediate use ; also, from
old folks, widows, orphans, bc., who had a
few thousand dollars to invest. These small
savings were put out at interest on railroad
securities, and thus millions of capital were
absorbed.
"True," the reader may reply, "but when
the money was received by railroad projectors.
or contractors, it did not stick to their fingers,
nor did they burn or bury it; they simply
passed it through their hands into the pockets
of their workmea and others to whom they
were indebted, who put it again into
Precisely so; but just at this point came
the Jay Cooke dc Co. disaster, and with it a
loss of confidence and the retirement of these
funds from circulation.
This is the only logical explanation of the
cause of a deficency in the volume of curren
cy. Yet Congress spent four months endeav
oring to solve the mystery ; and when they
discovered the cause and applied the proper
remedy, as they supposed, the President ve
toed their four mouths labor and left them
where they commenced last December.
query? suppose the President had signed
the bill and under it the Secretary of the
Treasury hadissued an additional 40 or BO mil
lion dollars in currency, how were the needy
ones going to control any portion of this
money.
I have stated that it was not currency, but
disposable values, or means to command
cash capital that was really required. Before
the Treasury could issue a thousand dollars of
the new issue to any one, it must have a U. S.
bond of the value in exchange; and whoever
has had that bond in his possession or could
control it at pleasure, could at any time have
converted it into currency by sending it to
Washington or to Wall street in New York
city. Is it not the want of currency but of
convertible values that just now causes in
convenience among business men, and this
can be overcome only by retrenchment and
economy in expenses.
PUBLIC DEBT AND It4TENUE
The reduction of the public debt, in Aprll,
amounted to $2,965,451.48. The Internal
Revenue receipts for the month were fully up
to the Commissioner's estimate, and in excess
of those of the corresponding mouth of 1873,
to the amount of $872,109.43.
PROGRESS.
A colored member of the House, Mr. Raney,
presided, pro tempore, on Wednesday, over
the deliberations of the House. A few days
ago an educated Indian lawyor was atlinittes
to practice before the bar of the United Stated
Supreme Court. N. H. P.
Letter from Washington,
WASHINGTON, D. C,, April 20, 1074,
DEAR TOMPIAL :—Being an occasional reader
of your valuable paper, I am pleased to learn
through it that Prof. Goss is reaping his just
deserts at the bands of an outraged commu
nity. lie is a nuisance that should have been
abated long since.
The imp;ssion sought to be made by Huss
and others is that Senator Scott has been at
the bottom of this, and has caused all the dis
affection in the Republican party in Hunting
don county, whereas it is only malice on their
part, because" he holds so high a position, and
one which he fills so ably and creditably to
the State he represents. Mr. Scott stands
second to day to no one in the Senate. He is
strictly honest, and one of the hard-working
members of that body. Pennsylvania never
had a more faithfulrepresentative in the U. S.
Senate than the now has in the person of
Senator Scoit. While he is just to himself be
is faithful to the bsst interests of those he rep
resents in the broadest sense of the word, and
if Pennsylvania is as faithful to herself, she
will re elect him to a second term. There is
np one stands higher in the estimation of his
fellow members nor commands more of their
respect than does Senator Scott. Lie is be
youd the reach of designing and corrupting
influences, which is saying a great deal in
these degenerate times.
The District Investigation is likely to be
brought to an end.:The Committee has closed
the evidence in chief, and will take but a few
days to bear the rebutting testimony.
The impression seems to prevail that Con
gress will abolish the Board of Public Works
and put it inthe hands of Commissioners which
I think would be the best for all parties. I
do not believe that Gov. Shepherd, against
whom so much has been said, ever was
cognizant of, or gave countenance to any
dishonorable transactions, but on thecontrary
believe Lim to be an upright, honest christian
man. JUSTICE.
A Wrong Custom Corrected.
It is quite generally the custom to take strong liver
stimulants for the cure of liver complaint, and both the
mineral and vegetable kingdoms have been diligently
searched to procure the most drastic and poisonous purga
tives, in order to produce a pbwerful effect upon the
liver, and arouse the lagging and enfeebled organ. This
system of treatment is on the same principle as that of
giving a weak and debilitated man large portions of
bmndy to enable him to do a certain amount of work.—
When the stimulant is withheld, the organ like the sys
tem, gradually relapse into a more torpid or sluggish and
weakened condition than before. What then is wanted ?
Medicines, that, while they cause the bile to flow freely
from the liver, as that organ is toned into action, will
not overwork and thus debilitate it, but will, when their
use discontinued, leave the liver strengthened and
healthy.

ALL THE NEWS
AND
FULL OF PICTURES,
THE D4ILY GRAPHIC.
TUE ONLY ILLUSTRATED DAILY NEWSPAPER IN
With its issue for March 4, 16'74, THE DAIL'I GRAPHIC
enters upon the second year of a career phenomenal in the
history of journalism. Its story of a twelvemonth has
been a steady and unquestioned growth in popular ac
ceptance as the most orfainal, artistically luxurious, alai
wonderfully comprehensive metropolitan journal ever
published in the United States.
Asa brilliant novelty, the whole country has confessed
its unique attraction; as a practical and marvellously com
plete NEWSPAPER, it bas become a daily necessity to
the social and mercantile interests of one of the largest
permanent constituenciee ever attained by ajournalistic
enterprise in the same period, while its greet specialty,
beyond all actuality or Lope of conapetition,. A sUPERIS
PICTORIAL MIRROR OF DAILY HISTORY has been
the wonder, delight, and new education of individuals and
homes in every State of the Union. In the very idea of
such utilization of the finest pictorial art, for every day's
information and reflection, there is all the charm of a ro
mance; and the realization of that idea, made visible in
THE DAILY GRAPHIC, is a practical and ever-varying
usennilation of the must fascinating Ornament with the
commonest use which never palls upon even the most
pampered taste. From the first issue the succi.sive mats
titude of its pictures has been a perfect study of medians
teal and journalistic development; the inevitable early
imperfections of artists and others, not yet thoroughly
trained in the new process, disappearing steadily in an en
steadily increasing accuracy and beauty of artistic effects.
Indeed thin very illustration, from dry to day, of the
Time's spirit of Progress in Art, as well as in Events, hats
been an added and piquant interest, which is yet to be
maintained for the public by unending future "Graphic' .
improvements. Scarcely more, however, for its beautiful
portraits, trenchant cartoons, vivid news-etchings, and un
equalled productions of the world's choicest works of art,
than for its unrivalled :attractions as A MODEL JOURNAL.
OF NEWS, SOCIETY, AND LITERATURE. Has THE
DAILY GRAPHIC has been nationally recogniaed and
popularly welcomed Its genuine editorial independence,
wide sweep of intelligence, ever-varying department& of
literary and personal interest, sparkling correspondents°,
.d pungent criticisms, make it as much a favorite in the
sanctum of the great Western or Southern or Northern
newspaper as in the counting-room and the family circle.
