By an act of a corrupt Congrcst our
subscribers are all blackmailed 20 cents
a year, in the shape of postage, to swell
the purse of a Department irhich paid
Chorpening $450,000 when his claim
was less than 875,000. IVe expect the
next Congress to undo much of the bad
legislation of the last ; and to partially
remedy the outrage or embargo placed
upon intelligence, we propose to pat the
1 i-owaok on all eojties of the Jlepublican,
. within the county, upon which the sub
scriber DAS TA1D US SIX MONTHS OR
more in advance, and ir do not want
Post Masters to annoy our advance
paying subscribers for postage, because
we will pay the same before the quarter
expires. The postage will also be paid
for all persons becomina advance-vauina
subscribers on or before the first day of
uctoocr next.

The editors of the Dnovillo Intelli
gencer and Lancaster Express bad bet
ter take care bow they assail Presi
dent Grant's guardian angel Jim
Duffy. This man, who can neither
read nor write, has more influence
with tho President than any fivo men
in the Union. Ho eats and sleeps
: with liim ho nurses "tbo Govern
ment" when drunk, and travels witb
it, wbeo it leaves Long Branch to bury
its relations, and kcops the Govern
ment's tiino'at horse races, and baits
its book on fluting excursions; be wit
nesses Um title papors in the purchase
of gold minos and other real estato,
and uncorks its rum boltlos. Such,
in short, is tho occupation of "Jim
Duffy, of Marietta. Tho Senator from
Montour has drawn this fishy debate
nut of as and is therefore responsible.
Another Great Robber.
Ono of Henry Ward Bocchor's
church mombers, named Mills, who
was tho President of a Brooklyn sav
ings bank, has dofrauded tho widows
and orphans of that city out of near
ly halt A million of dollars. Whoa
he discovered that bis accounts wore
to be exatninod by the directors of tho
dank, knowing full well that hiscrimo
would bo exposed, wont and drownod
himself. No man in that city stood
higher in a business and social capao
' ity than this man Mills. ' Tbe bank
has suspended and depositors will
fooso $150,000 and tho widows and
oiphnus $450,000. It's tbo samo old
lory fusliiomiblo and fast living.
Later investigations develop tho fact
that the book keeper is a defaulter,
too, to nearly $10,000, and that Mills
had negotiated $1100,000 worth of
Georgia SUto Bonds, fraudulently is
sued by lVa Bullock carpet-bag gov
ernment of that State, which aro to
tally worthless, and for which Mills'
account is credited at 75 conts on tho
dollar. It is no wonder tbo old vil
lain drowned himself.

This is precisely the plan of Cam
eron, Mac key & Co., at llarrisburg
The Stalo Treasurer annually reports
a balnnco of about one million three
hundred thousand dollars in the Treas
ury, when there is not tbe ono-thir-tcenth
part there In money. But in
stead, there Is to be found in a pigeon
bole a note of Don Cameron's for
200,000; J. K. Kidgway & Co., a rot
ton banking conoorn in Philadelphia,
have note thore for $100,000; a
cashier's chock of the Middlotown
bank for $50,000 ; tbe chock of a Lob
anon and a Lewisburg bank for a sim
ilar amount each, while Mackey'sown
chock drawn on bis Pittsburg bank
for $100,000, is in tbe same bole, be
sides thoso of banks at Huntingdon,
Altoona, Williamsport, Korristown,
and Sunbury, ranging In sums from
$20,000 to $50,000 each. Thus tho
balance in our Slate Troasury has
been used by these banks for years for
speculative purposes, without paying
any interest to the Stalo, while the
tax-payors of the commonwealth are
compollcd to pay interest on this samo
money, used by those bankers to en
rich themselves.
Why do not our State, authorities
take this money and redeom State so
curilios and stop the interest f We
again ask : Why not save tbe tax-payers
of the State at least $00,000 annu
ally, by using tbo balanco in a legiti
mate way, instead of allowing these
banks to use it, out of which they coin
from 15 to 20 per eent. f How much
is this motbodof doing Imninees above,
that of tho common highwayman f
Is it not simplo robbery, too 1 If the
treasury affairs of Clearfield county
wore managed in a similar way, what
universal indignation would come from
every loyal throat within its borders.
And jot, what is to prevent it? . If it
it endorsed as a christian and loyal
virtuo, to rob tbe people at Washing
ton and Llarrisburg, what is to pre
vent that virtuo from spreading all
over the country I ; ' j
A burst of boly horror and indigna
tion has gone forth because a band of
freebooters upsot a train of cars on
the Pacifio railroad last wock and
robbed tho express of no loss than
$-1,000. Yet this it but a little over
balf tho sum which each member oi
Congress stole from the United States
Treasury in March last. What kind
of morals and system of economy is
the country being cursed with any
how f It would indeed be Strange,
and wo arc astonished ut tho verdancy
of the Led.jcr man, if the robbers'
game, practiced at Uarrisburg, is not
also played at Washington. r Is any
body green enough to suppose that a
chango of locality would produce a
revolution in Simon Cameron's system
of robbery, which he has practiced
for forty years, or improvo his mor
als f No. Instead of there being
from thirty to forty millions of dol
lars in the United Stales Troasury, at
tho end of each month, thcro are not
five millions. Two hundred banks
snd branchos uso no other capital but
this, which coats tho lax-payers two
million four hundred thousand dollars
annually in the way of interest Such
is the loyal modo of banking. Com
pel tho tax payors to furnish tho capi
tal ail muko thorn pay the interest,
and if any of thoso boobies want to
get a discount or loan then charge
them from twelve to twenty per cent,
for the ACCOMMODATION, and toll
the customer that no other man could
havo bcon accommodated at this time
but him, as the bank is hard up, etc.
If the people are foolish onough to al
low this system of publio robbory to
continuo for Ave years longor these
banking freebooters will become as
daring as the Iowa gang, and not on
ly compel the owners of property to
furnish thoir capital, but they will
compel fui'Miers and lot ownors to pay
them a rent for tho property they havo
earned by (ho sweat of (heir brow.
There are more public robbers honsod
at llurrinbtirg and Washington and
tho capitals of our southern stales
than are to. bo found on our western
plains, including Indian agents, Mo
docs and all. ' And rot tbo soft, oily-
tonguod patriot exclaims "don't dis
turb capital ; don't kill the gooso that
lays the goldon egg !" Hell must in
deed bo a large place it it succeeds in
holding all tho publio robbers, hypo
crilcs and murderers.

In ono of our telogrsphlo dispatches
yesterday morning brief reforenoo wat
mado to the murder of Isabella Mo
Bride, an aged lady, sevoral miles from
Williamsport, and tho terrible beating
of her husband. Sinee then we have

the horrible Dutohery ana tee oniocl
which Impollod its perpetration t In
farm houso noar Linden, about four
miles and a half from Williamsport.
cqul-distant from the Philadelphia
and Erie railroad and a publio road,
resided a couple ugud about tovenly
five year. The building Is located
about 800 yards from the railroad and
can be plainly teon by nasaengors on
the various trains wbiob pass that
point. The houss is reached from the
publio road by a lane, and no habita
tion is within 800 or -100 yards of the
place. The oouple wore known as
quiet and unobtrusive peoplo and pos
sessed no social qualities. They had
low visitors aua aostaineu irom can
ing on others unless absolutely neces
sary. Xboy bad lived at the spot lor
many years and woro tho owners of
two large farms In the neighborhood.
Beside it was generally believed that
they had socretod in the bouse a large
quantity of gold some placing the
figure as high as $25,000.
it was known Inst two wealthy
bachelor brothers of tbe wife had died
at the place and bequoatbed their pos
sessions to the acred couple winch ad
ded to their frugality and other circum
stances caused them to be regarded
as among the most affluent residents
of the country. The knowledge that
tbe honso contained but two occupants,
and they old and feeble, and that
thousands of dollars of gold woro sup
posed to be in their possession, was
communicated to a brakoman on the
Philadelphia and Erie Uuili-onrl, named
Nelson Wado years ego. and on Tues
day evening he carried into execution
the diabolical dosign which bo had
doubtless nourished for a long period.
Tho man and wife were just making
preparations to cnl thoir supper, tho
edibles having already been plueud on
tho table; when a visitor suduonly
made his appearance.
Mrs. MUrUa had cono toward tho
cellar on the outside with a crock of
milk, and the door leading to the base
ment being closed sho placed the
earthen vossel on tho doorstop. As
sho prooeodod to open the cellar door
she was violently assaulted with a
club by tho strangor, and although

with the blood dripping from it rushed
into the houso and applied tt to the
head of the husband until be bad sup
posed he had killed him. Ho was
now master of tbe terrible situation
and commenced a search for tho gold
winch be thought was In tho bouse.
lie succeeded in obtaining, tt is said,
about $0,000, when be quit tbe scone
of bit terrible work.
THE SITUATION DISCOVERED.
Although tho murder was oommit-
tod on Tuesday evening, it was not
known by any person but the assassin
and robber until near noon on Wed
nesday, when soma one bad occasion
to go to the house and found Mrs. Mo
Bride covered witb gore, her skull
fractured, her features generally dis
torted sod ber inanimate form lying
wbere she bad been stricken down by
tbe murderer. Tbe crock of milk
which she bod placed on the door step
seemed to have been untouched. : The
startled aod horrified discoverer of
the woman's fate thon entered the
house, where he found Mr. M'Brido
still breathing but porfoctly uncon
scious, llis hood bore abundant evi
dence of having boon violently beaton,
and his faco, hands and clothing wore
stained with blood, while the floor
contained considerable quantities of
coagulated gore. , r
TUE TERRIBLE NEWS SPREADING.
. Soon after tbo nonror neighbors
were informed of tbe trscrcdy, and by
sftornoon hundreds of people on foot
and in carriages wero hurrying to the
tcono. Tbe most intense excilemont
prevailed, and those who witnessed
tho bloody corps of Mrs. M'Bride and
hor almost dead husband were filled
with indignation against tbe murderer
and threats of lynching wore freely
made. Tbe eountry for miles was
scoured by parties in ecach of the as
sassin. THE TELL-TALE GOLD THE MURDERER
CAUGHT IN A TtROTIIKL.
On Wednesday night a man-apparently
intoxicutod and with a swagger
ing air entered a house of prostitution
in Williamsport and was very extrav
agant In the cxpondituroof his money,
lie exhibited moro gold coin than is
ordinarily possoBsed by individuals,
nnd the mistress of tho houso, having
boon informed of tbe murder near
Linden and Of tho supposed robbery
of gold, began to suspect the visitor
as the guilty party and slipped to the
outside and communicated her suspic
ions to tho police authorities of Wil
liamport. Thoy soon made thoir np
poaranee at tbe bouse and took the
man into custody. Ho was examined,
and in bis pockets woro found about
$0,000 in gold. Ho offered no resist
ance to the officers, and nflor a brlof
interval confessed that ho had com
milled the mnrder and stolen tbo gold
after Iho pcrpotration of tbe crnno,
besides making revolutions as to bow
he had proceeded uboul tho bloody
businoss. Tho fiond is now in irons
in the Lycoming county prison, from
which he will not cmergo until he Is
brought ot for trial.
TIIE CONDITION OF MR. M'nPIDB.
Yesterday morning the condition of
Mr. M'Brido, who rccoived tho brutal
troatmont at tho hands of Wade,

i M'nre Water. : , .
Nothing is so productive of good
health n plenty ot puro water. An
exchange, referring to this imports nt
question, says: Dr. J. C. l'elors, an
honorary momber of tbe Now lork
Board of Health, has just returnod
home from tho Southern and Wottern
cities, whitber bo bad been sent tore-
port upon tho nature of tbe cbolrraio

loose sections, iuo doctor s report is
rcry reassuring, and proves that the
pesiilot.ee has obtained its strongest
bold in cities supplied by wolls, cis
terns and springs, whore the water
was liable to bo contaminated and aot
at an agent of diseaao. Tbe fact ap
pear patent that water is tbo most
dangerous channel for carrying the
poison of cholera, and that the susest
sanitary precaution is an inexhausti
ble supply ot running fountains tbat
cannot by any possibility be affected
by the food on which this dreaded
pestilence feeds. Dirt aod fear pre
dispose the body to any disease, but
of themselves thoy do not and cannot
produce cholera, xboy make men
more iiuoie to prostration ana leeoie
in the ficht for life, tot that is tbe ex-
tont of the injury. Tbe poison tbat
produces cholera does not lie under
ncath the markets or even in the filthy
slums of back alloysi but infects food
and drink and is conveyed in clothing.

Wo are pleased to read tbo follow
ing in tho New York Herald of the
24tb ult: Tho idoa upon which tbe
Contonnial Exhibition at Philadelphia
in 1870 is baited a grand centenary
colebration of tho Declaration of In
dependence is in itself sufficient to
sot at rest any quibbling about the
pronriotv of selecting that cilv for
boldinc a world's fair. Every part of
tbe country recognizes this, so it can
not bo a mutter of municipal jealousy.
Now York, which has no occasion to
bejoalousof Philadelphia in anything,
would bo leant likely to bs jealous ie a
mutter whero moro patriotism is suf
ficient to decido in fuvor of our sister
city's pretensions. . So far, indeed, is
the metropolis from being jealous of
Philadelphia that the best assistanoe
Now York can givo towards making
tho exhibition a great success will be
cheerfully givon. Wo shall work as
hard for that end as if tho exhibition
wero to bo hold in this oily, that the

Independence may show such an ex

inmates jumped out to the roar under
Uie cover of half a dozen navy revol
vers, i i ' '
Two of the robbers marched up and
down tho train, threatening to shoot
any person wbo showed his bead, eay-
inil, "Got down out ot sikht, d n
ye, or we will sboot you." The rob
bers then took about $2,000 from tho
express safe and cut open the mail
sacks, but took no letters, niouutod
their horses aod rodo off across the
prairie in a southerly direction, the
wholo being dono in loss than ton
minutes. : .
Thoy fortunately did not cat the
telegraph wires, and Superintendent
Itoyee at once bastenod to the nosrost
station and telegraphed in all direc
tions, .ngmoe and a posse or men
were sent out from Council Bluffs on
tbe Burlington and other roads to in
tercept the robbers. Their drees and
voices indicated tbat they were recti
lar bushwhackore. They evidently
intended to got the usual valuable ex
press matter sont by this roots on
Monday, but which went throuch on
an extra train Sunday night.
ibe robbers, during the day, stole
a spike bar and hammer from a band
car bouse at tbe station. Tbey drow
two spikes Irom one ond ol a rail,
socreted themselves several rods away,
and as the engine approached pulled
the rail out of place. Tbe promptness
of the engineer in reversing the en
gine, and the use of tho air brakes
avoided the passencers Irom beine in
jured. .
Ibe track was at once laid around
tbe wreoked cars, and the train re
sumed its trip, arriving hero at half
past seven this morning, bringing tbe
dead body of the engineer, wbo resided
here and who loaves a wife and three
children. , .. .
Sr. Louis, July 25. Tbo police of
tbis city, from facts which have come
to their knowledge, beliove tbat the
robbort of tbe Iowa railroad train are
tbe same cane that robbed the bank
of St. Goneviove, Missouri, last May,
and the liusselsville, Ky., bank two
years ago, and tbe Gait Bank, this
Stale, and committed several bold rob
beries. Thoir rondosvous is said to
be in Jackson county, Mo., and that
their homo are scattered around in
that and Clay and Lafayette aod Bay
countiet. Some of their natnoi are
Jesse snd Frank James, Bill Sbepard,
Cole Young, and McCoy. Their fami
lies are said to cultivate small isrms
in the counties named, and their homos
are surrounded by their own relatives
and mends, wbo would not themoelvot
commit a crime, but would shiold those
dospcradoes to the last. ' "
An Old Dodo Ittmvrn. The
Reading Eagle says I Threo or four
weeks ago two men traveled through
a neighboring county pretending that
they wanted to establish township
libraries, which wero to be kept at the
furmor'a house, and the books loaned
out free of cost. Culling upon a woallhy
t'armor thoy would aals if he would
take chargo of the library. If be
would, they asked him to write bis
namo on a pioco of paper, which was
to'be sont to tho County Auditors."
ine men then cut tho sheet into slips,
turnod them over and wrote a noto of
linnd on the other s!do, leaving the
larmor t name tocark It. They served
half a dozon or moro farmers this way,
writing notes of $50 or $00, to run
thirty days, and signing any name
they ploased, so long as tlio noto bad
a rood endorsement. The notes wero
altorwards discounted at tho bank and
the thieves fled, loavinc tbo farmers
severely stuck. . ' ' ' , " "
"Dry Up." Pauley Jr., of tho
Waynosburg Messenger vrsitod a danc
ing platform near hi a town, and ex
presses his surpriso at the muscle dis
played by the fair ones on a warm day
like the Fourth of July. Ho says !
"Dancing is certainly invigorating
and strengthening, as wo saw ladies,
a lto aro totally unable to wield a mop,
twing a broom or Hit a skillet, take
their placet on the platform, and ap
parently wi'Jiout an effort whirl
through the intricate "mazes of tho
danoe," for a half dozen consecutive
tots, wilh scarcely a breathing spell."

Tbo Williamsport Bulletin says :
A correspondent says that on the 17th
instant a party of young women west
out from Queen's run to tbemountnift
just book of tbo settlement, grttbering
liuckloberrlot. , One of them, Jerasha
Bryan, advanced a littlo farther Into
the woods than tbo others, when she
wo tttackod by a bug panther.. Her
companions, Bearing ine uruie scream,
sought safety in flight, but Miss Dry.
an. findinir escsno impossible, dotor-
minod to stand her ground, nnd sola-
inn a buce pine knot, cave her enemy
battle. The contest was a close one
fof a few minutes, but human cour
ace, judgment and coolness soon trl-
umphed over brute strength, and the
horoio woman soon naa me satisiao-
lion of layintr tbe blood-thirsty mon
tor dead at hor foot. Her gar mon U
were torn in shreds and ber laoe and
and arms badly scratched, but the
walked home with a firm ttep and tbe
light of triumph in hor eye, and wat
ablo to give a cood aooount of herself.
Tho dead panther was soon afterwards
loana oy uie people oi yueon s run
and provod, on measurement, to be
six foettnd ten Inchet long. Mits
Brvon is the lion for lioness) of the
neighborhood, a she well dosorvet to
be. We doubt whether on Instanoo
can be found on reoord of moro cool
horoio bravery and wiso discretion,
dovoloped by any woman, ovon in the
most historio and perilous day of
1 onnsvlvama.
Practical. Tho Indiana State
Liquor Law toemt destioed to create
an alarming incroaso of tbat pitiable
class oi husbands unieoiiogiv styled
"henpeckod." A provision of the law
makes the liquor-sollors responsible for
the damages caused by the purchaser.
In order to escape these penalties the
saioon-koopers oi liluntown have noli
fiod all married womon tbat if thoy
do not wish liquor sold to tboir bus-
bands, all thoy have to do is to leave
at the bars a wrilton notice to that
effect. The samo privilege is extend.
ed to unmtti'riud women wbo have
lovors whom they wish to be kept
from tho intoxicating cup. , But this
is not nil. The sellers have issued a
permit for the uso of wives who are
willing their husbands shall drink
when and whore they ploase, the
wives waiving all claim to damages
theroirom. it is a prelty dark out
look for imbibing husbands and lovers
in Blufftown. . lbs bachelors and the
women will have a cloar field to them
selves if the law is enforced
