    The POTTER JOURNAL
A> •
NEWS ITEM.
FA.. Dec. 24. 1573.
/ FOR twenty years Potter County
has stood by the side of Allegheny,
and Chester, aild Lancaster in main
taining the most advanced positions
in favor of freedom, justice and good
government.
\<jw it company with those
staunch Republican counties and has
voted to continue special legislation,
with its long train of corrupting in
fluences, and to continue the word
'•white" as one of the qualifications
of an elector.
It looks as it we needed some
young men to do missionary work
among us. /
No Increase of Taxes.
Since writing some words on thin
subject for the lant JOURNAL we have
been favored with a pain phi at copy
of the last annual report of the Treas
urer of the ~t nited States. It is a
very interesting document, and ought
to be carefully studied by even*
member of Congress.
Our conviction that no iucrease of
luxation should be permitted, by
even a hasty reading of this, report
•was greatly strengthened.
A single extract will show our
readers why the treasury is now
empty and the Secretary recommend
ing higher taxes:
On comparing the tables of %iße
veipW"' and of "■Expenditure*,' that
appear at the beginning of the ap
pendix, hereto annexed, v ith t he like
tables in my report of the preceding
year, it will appear that there lias
leen a large falling off in the receipts,
amounting to $28,2t50,764.17 on O' --
?jk! to f,hl2,S6.i> 53 on Infer
nal Revenue.
This decrease iu the revenue is
mainly due to the great reduction of
taxation >n both of these, the main
source. of national income, that wa.>
made by the last Congre-s, which
was demanded by the people, and has
received their sanction and approval.
Rut. unfortunately, it will also ap
pear from further inspection thai
the expenditures arc largely iu tx
i-o.v of those fvr the preceding year.
Thin increase of 'expenditure* u main
ly due to the large approjrial rO/to
made by the last { on pres.- in c.tctvs*
<j the e.-iimater made by the see< rat
Executive 1 tr.pa\rtments of the Gov
ernment. The falling off of the re
ceipts and the increase of oxpeuui
per annum at which the public debt
was paid off in preceding v i i
! I.e -i: facts combined make an inter
esting subject for reflection, the
study of which will make a good
guide, it not a warning, to ngre-.-,
and the administrativeotlie- r as well,
of the course that should be pur.-n. d
in tiic future. Either taxation mint
1 increased, an expedient that can
hardly be thought of, or the appro
priations must tie kept largely bclov
the receipts. Otherwise the rapid
reduction of tin* public debt v. Hi ix
arrested, if not abandoned.
We lmve italicised a f. a lines that
tell tie' whole story anil point to tiic
title remedy—keep the vxpeiidltiiics
below tne estimates made by tiic e.v
eeutivc departments, instead of in
excess of them, and there wiJ! bnji
lull treasury—for the re\eni • m t.ie
Government are enonnuo-.
.Strict economy and dt-vob d fidelity

ing <1 mam! < f die country. 1 i'' '••n
g:ess sled! give due heed to this de
mand.. it will merit ami receive the
gratitu le of the people.
Cheese Factories a Remedy icr
Hani Times.
The farmers in the southern part
of our County would do well to make
themselves fully acquainted with the
working of the Ringhatn cheese fac
tory.
1 roin liie best information v\e e..n
obtain on the subject, we judge that
the farmers who rely on sales of hay.
oats and stock for receipts are in>l in
as good financial condition as those
who manufacture butter and cheese^
llay and oats can only be sold to
advantage after sleighing, an 1 when
ever conies a tightness in money
matters they are the first of the farm
products that become a drug in the
market. For instance, oats cannot
now—Ret;. 23—lie sold l'or more than
thirty-five cents per bushel, which is
fifteen cents a bushel less than the
price a year ago, whereas butter and
cheese has a ready sale at very near
ly or quite last year's prices.
One great advantage of a eheeae
factory is that it brings together, at
one all the products of a large
liumlier of farms, which induces buy
ers to come to that point and pur
chase at a higher price than would
be paid for small quantities. We
are informed t hat ail the cheese of
tin Gingham factory was sold at
.New \-J k prices, k - the eosl of
1
transportation, to buyers who came
! t< the factory, and as frequently as
the patrons cared to make sales, thus
giving them the money for the pro
ducts of their farms when it was need
ed or desired.
Contrasting this state of things
with the situation in our part of the
Couuty, we should think our farm
' ers would do well to try the Bingham
plan.
RLVISINU TIIE ESTIMATES —The
Executive Department w ill next week
begin the revision of estimates with
the object of reducing public expend
iturcs. It is believed estimates for
public buildings can lie lowered three
or four millions. Work on build
ings in New fork iu process of erec
tion will probably be continued, as a
cessation would be injurious, and w ill
require the appropriation ot about
one million dollars. Estimates of
the engineer of the bureau, amount
ing to $21,000,000. for improvement
of rivers and harbors, fortifications,
etc., can also be reduced one-half,
but Secretary Belknap declared the
expenses of the War Department
proper canuot be reduced without
detriment to the service. There will
probably bo a small reduction in es
timates connected with Indian affairs.
THIS Couuty gave OS majority
against the new Constitution. We
can remember when it did even worse
than that.

i HE Popular Science Monthly for
December lias an unusually valuable
L and interesting article on the "Co
• relation of A* ital with Chemical and
Physical Forces," by Professor Jo
- -eph Le Contc. It is written in a
plainer, more comprehensible style
■ than most scientific writers use, or
else the subject itself is one we arc
. so ready for that it is easily seized.
It is certainly one that will interest
any reader and make us more ready
f to appreciate other scientific tiulhs.
■ We give a few words:
"Force i> incapable of destruction,
except by the same j>ower that crea
ted it. The domain of Science lies
within the limits of these changes—
creation and annihilation lie outside
of her domain.''
"Mars by the Latest Observations,"
taken from La Suture, describes that
planet with so great a likeness to our
own, in its motions, seasons, land,
water and atmosphere—and even
guessesut its animal life—that though
nothing is said of human inhabitants,
one cannot help thinking of our
neighbors over there.
A lighter but not less pleasing sub
ject is "Tennyson and Botany," which
points out many charming things iu
Tennyson's poetry that one might
hardly notice, but which could never
again be overlooked. Among the^
people lo whom we must ever be
grateful are, prominently, those who
show us new beauties in familiar
thaigs, ami* this writer, J. Hutchin
son, in the Science Monthly , has
done many of us a cheery service.
We refer to the table of contents
of the January number in the Jot k
xal this week.

THE OUTLOOK.
In the series of pictures called
"The Voyage of Life," we see man at
four stages of existence. As infant,
under the care of a bright-winged,
smiling angel; as youth, starting on
his career, buoyant and hopeful,
springing eagerly forward and leav
ing the angel behind looking after
him with loving eyes, hopeful, too;
as man, absorbed, anxious, worn and
as though he had been, or might
easily be guilty: too weary and care
worn for peace, too resolute and dar
ing to regard always the right, lie
sees no angel—he has left her t ears
ago, but we see her looking, through •
a lift in the threatening clonus, at
him lovingly still. The fourth pic
ture is of old age, feeble, and with :
bowed head again under the care of the
angel. Perfectly correct are all these. •
the great throb of pain at your heart
tells you. But of the intermediate
steps, of the years that change a mail
from a joyous youth to a haggard
toiler or him again to the time of old
and introspection,you think and
yon long for other pictures, or rather
you make mental pictures and main
branches to the artist's great idea.
However it may lx* to one whose
manhood was strong and reckless like
this type, there i.-> in ordinary lives
| a time when one begins to withdraw
■from the bustle of worldly care, to
sec tlie futility of one's anxious la
bors, to know that re-suits !i<- in the
far future, to look back over one's
own life and abroad upon the tur
moil that surrounds u>, with clearer
eyes than before, with a better per
-1 ception of the springs of action in
the busy public, of successes, of fail
ures, of the causes of both.
1 think this period is the harvest
time of life, when growth has culmin
ated and decline has not begun; and
it is often indicated by a countenance
u serene, a manner more genial,
a lone of conversation more just and
, charitable, though those words mean
, '. ... VUCIII
through their busier years.
; It is a great tiling to feel that this
i time lias come, to be able lo relin
quish naturally, not the activities of
life but its hurry and worry, to feci
that our experiences are no longer
bundles of thorns that prick, but
golden -heaves, I ••.nigh there may be
some briers gathered with them.
Then if we are wise, our storehouses
i of thought and experience grow full
er and richer and may be made to
help many of our companions who
are still rushing after some elusive
good.
Poor, very poor must he be. or
she, to whom this period docs not
come with the ripened years; who
follows the toil and turmoil of life to
the very end or until infancy again
overtakes hiiu. He misses the gar
nering—lie has no harvest-home.
Rtakyuno Statistics. —The Day
ton (Ohio) Journal has been getting
up statistics about "the drains we
drink" and "the bread we eat" in tin
eitv of Dayton. Davton spends au
lly for whiskey alone in bar
rooms. 81,000.000; for Hour, $402,-
000. Dayton lias 590 bar-rooms,
which consume daily ten barrels of
whiskey. "Bar-keepers inform us,"
naively remarks the editor, "that i
there are seventy drinks in a gallon. :
Averaging the drinks at something;
like ten cents, the total consumption
reaches 10,000,000 drams per annum.
The profit realized by the mixiolo
gists on this guzzling is estimated at
$945,000, or 700 per cent., which
i beats banking out of sight. Of malt
liquors, the Paytonians consume
l$ 1,000,000 worth annually." The
Journal sums lip as follows: "The
grand total of whiskey, malt liquors,
and tobacco, $2,300,000 per annum,
'and $402,000 for bread," which, for
a city of 33.000 population, is not
bad.
IIENUY W. GENET, a prominent
Democrat of New York Pity,elected
to the Legislature by his party after
he was indicted, has just been con-1
victed of fonjery in connection with
the New Court-House Swindle.
In view of this and other convic
tions of leading New York Demo-j
erats of swindling and stealing,
wouldn't it is well to the Wellsville
lice J'rces to give a little more at
tention to the shortcomings of its
associates before denouncing in such
big words its opponents? Keform,
as well as charity, should begin at
home.
The Great Contest.
Onr satisfaction over the magnifi
cent majority for the. .Nov Constitu
tion is so great that we have no in
clination to say anything to hurt the
feelings of those who honestly
thought the old Constitution on the
whole, better thau the new; but in
I justification of some pretty strong
expressions in these columns, as to
the motive that inspired opposition
to the New- Constitution, we make
the following extract from a paper
outside of the state: The New Vork
Evening J'ost is one of the very best
papers published: candid, honest and
intelligent, and here i> its view of
• our late contest.
"it has always been found in this
country that w hen the community at
large becomes thoroughly aroused
ou any question of political rights or
honesty, that which is morally right
prevails. We do not expect that
the honest men of Pennsylvania will
show themselves to be exceptions to
the rule. The strenuous and unscru
pulous elfortsmade to defeat the New
Constitution present a fair measure
of its prospective utility as an aid to
good government, and those who
; believe in and wish for good govern
ment ought, therefore, to put forth
unceasing efforts tor its adoption un
til next Tuesday, the day of theelec
! tion, w hen we hope and believe they
will find that they have wou a great
; victory."

"Rambles in Martinique," opens
the list of contents of Marjter''* Mag
azine for .January. 1574. It is pro
fusely illustrated and cannot fail to
give its rentiers a pretty good idea
of the flowery, beautiful island that
, was the childhood's home of the Em
-1 press Josephine. Here, is the de
; script ion of the approach to the city
of St Pierre:
Two miles north of Pearl Rock
lies the little village of Preeheur, on
a low point of land. Rounding this,
the beautiful bay, harbor and city of
St. Pierre burst upon the view—a
splendid picture, with a wonderful
background of mountain magnifi
cence. Few cities in the world enjoy
a more delightful situation. On ev
ery side there is beauty. On one
hand gentle slopes, covered with gar
dens and plantations and dotted
with villas, lead up to the lofty moun
tain cliffs ; on the other the lovely
bay, with its picturesque shipping,
and its low headlands with fisher
men's cottages and liamlets. The
climate of St, Pierre is equally at
tractive for eight months of the year
—namely, from October to May— l
the northeast trade-winds, blowing
from the sea, give a delightful tem
perature by day, while the land
bieeze at night, laden with the fra
grance of orange and lime blossoms,
enchants the senses and makes sleep
more luxurious than we can imagine
in our Northern climate.

The Retrenchment Movement
WASHINGTON, Dec. IS, 1873.
Judge Durell, of New York,chair
man of the Conimitte on Expendi
tures and Public Buildings, will
probably not begin his investigations
into the affairs of liie Supervising Ar
chitect of the Treasury Department
for several days. At the Republican
caucus, it was indicated that a dispo
sition existed to retrench in the mat
ter of public buildings, at least until
the financial condition of the country
shall be more hopeful. The points
toward which the inquiry in this case
will be directed uie as follows: F rst,
Whether appropriations have been
made for buildings not yet begun,
which are not necessary or can be
deferred; second, whether there are
any constructions upon which work
has !*een begun, that can be pvoperlv
set aside or discontinued for the
present; third, whether extravagant
or unnecessary expenditures have
been made or contemplated on build
ings now being erected in various
I}>aits of the country. Members of
the committee say that no charges
whatever have been made against
Mr. Mullet, the Supervising Archi
tect, but that it is the specified duty
of the committee to examine the
' questions above referred. It is prob
able that the committee will investi
gate with reference to the building
in Philadelphia, for which $ 3,000.000
will be necessary, and also the Cin
cinnati building, for which the same
amount will be required. Neither of
these has been liegun. Mr. Mullet
MIVS that neither the n w .Slate De
partment, the Boston, the Chicago,
the St. Louis, nor the New York
buildings can be stopped without se
rious loss.— Pre**.

A Washington dispatch says: The
official opinion of Attorney General
Williams as to the status of the
steamer Virginia*, dated the 17th
inst., is just furnished for publication.
He recites the terms of the protocol, j
and then refers to the provisions of
the act of 1702, which details the le
gal qualifications necessary to give j
the protection of the United States
to vessels. The fourth section of
that act provides that the owner of
a vessel, before obtaining registry
therefor, must take the oath that no
foreigner is interested, directly or in
directly, in her or her profits. The
Attorney General therefore holds
that if the registry was obtained by
false oath she cannot be entitled to
the benefits of United States vessels.
He then recites the fact that the
registry of the vessel was obtained
at New York by Paterson in 1870
for certain Cubans in New York, and
Capt. Shepard, who left New York
as Her commander at that time, tes
tifies to having been employed by
Quesada and other Cubans. Testi
mony is given showing conclusive- I
lv that the Virginia* was bought by j
money raised by the Cubans, with
the understanding that l'aleison
shouiii appear as the nominal owner. j
Numbers of the crew employed alter
i'atcrson boughl the vessel testify to
iljuesada eommandbig and treating
them as if the vessel belonged to
him. in addition to these facts lv>
bond was ever given by Patersun or
('apt. Shepard, as required by law.
She was not injured even.

wonderful blessing to the rising gen

A list of the questions propounded
at an examination of teacher-, in Ohio
which in addition to the usual
branches of learning taught in com

make us feel that teaching in school '
is the la st business. The Kditoi ial

vcrtiscinents of just the things j>oo-;

Lastly there is a description of the
