That celebrated fanatic, Wendell Phillips, puis it in this way, "Whon Congress refused tho fureo bill sho left tho true men of the nation with ono alternative. Wo must tako for President a man who is a force bill that is, Grant. I am cer tain that under no other man can tho Republican party hope (or success. With theso views I demand of Grant that ho load us again to victory." Pooa Barn Builders. The Direc tors of the Too'r and County Commis sioners of Lebanon county have had a sharp legal contest as to who had the rii'ht to build a barn at tho Alms llouso in that county. The Lebanon county court decided in favor of the Commissioners, and then tho Directors of tho Poor carriod the matter to the Supreme Court. THE LICESSE QUESTION. We notice that Judgo Ross, of the Bucks and Montgomery district, lias delivered a written opinion vn the II conse question. Ho hold that In. ef fect the new license law Is to take out of the discretion of the oourta much responsibility which has hitherto been vested therein or perhaps imposed thoreupon. He maintains that tho courts are bound to grant licenses to all who may apply therefor and who comply with the legal conditions which re required from applicants. By this new act of legislation Judgo Ross be lieves that a tree license law has been ostaldishod, and that it no longer lies within the discretion of conrta to limit tho number of licenses granted by any consideration except that of the quali fication of tho applicants, but that they are bound by tho law to grant the petitions of all proper petitioners. If this opinion should be confirmed by the higher courts, tho new licenso law will mako a radical change in the whole license system and produco re sults which wo belk-vo woro 'not con templated by those who effected tho legislation. For these results, howev er, the courts cannot be held responsi ble, for, as Judge Ross remarks, it is not for them to speculate upon tho con sequences of tho law but to adminis ter it in accordance with its spirit and meaning, and in regard to this tho doc tors seem to widely disagree. A Government assault. a game of political sharp-shooting is going on between Vice President Wilson and Grant's personal organ, the Washing ton Republican. Tho Vice President scorns to bo ashamed of tho behavior of his superior, and speaks out quite plainly through tho columns of tho Boston Advertiter. The Republican counters and charges the Vice "gov ernment" with being a "thin-skinned Credit-Mobilior" and a "oringingly, cowardly imbecilo." ; lutthor high- sounding words, wo should say, for an organ which loads a party csntrollcd by grand moral ideas. If imbecility leads an old rooster liko tho V. P. to tell the truth, it would be well for tho country if a few more leaders would imitate him. It is so remarkably strange that wbenover a loading Had ical becomes disgusted with the crimes and follies of his party, and commenc es to exposo them that he is at once pronounced a rascal or crar.y.

RAILKOAD AND OUR COAX SHIPPERS. Our attention has boon called to the following article la last week's Stand- afil, which we flilly endorse. We give It place, because the combination enter ed into by the Pennsylvania liailroad and certain oonl operators, to crush out other less favored, Is to manifestly un just, that evory fair niiided man must condemn tho action ol the company in entering Into the arrangement, and which will be to disastrous in iU re sults to many worthy and deserving men who havoinrosted their all in the business. It is to bo hoped that the company will at onos retrace tho step, and do equal and exact justice to all. Thore has bouo greutuxoituniont.and, indeed, consternation among the bitu minous coal operators lor the punt ten days. Uapoiirs that on the first of tho nionth the I'enua. Itailroad Com pany leased the preference of a fixed number nf coal oars to certain coal shippers in the bituminous regions. In this proforeneo each liipier pays the company 130 tier car per annum for as many cars as lie wislies. and that num ber of cars are set aside for bis ex clusive use. For instance, if A takes 100 cars and 11 200 cars, the oom puny will beep him supplied with his 100 or zuu cars, as ine cast may bo, to tho exclusion of everybody else. A fter all the largest operators are supplied in this manner, it is mud that a large num ber of cars woultl beahtorbed, and the remainder of the cats are then used by tho company for their own use, for lumber shippers, stole, Ac, and for,wi mal drahrt at do nottnjnu the tirrtertnet. I lie enect, it appeals, was Instantane ous. Operators who had boen ship ping ten, fifteen, (wenty or more cars of ooal a tlay, suddenly get none, or perhaps one or two a woek. Their customers, of eorrse, could not be sup plied aim natumiy Kerr comwiled to go to thost tntpprn tno tnunied the prefer- enet of the compmy ; and it Is said that ot an the oporabrs in tho Allegheny regions only oni Arm is supplied with cars, lbe otbt-H get none, and, it is said, if the polcy is continued, they will be competed to go out of busi ness at great Ins. It would strito any ono with com mon sense viev that a policy produc ing such disastrous results must be wrong; and wlen we have heard the opinion of tho ligul profession they say as common carter for all shippers, it is simply and clearly illegal on tho purt ot the coinpanyto make any sucn tin- just and gross (Incrimination. Again, it is snd it an ordinary ship. Kr wishes to sSip coal to parties on the steading roa4,lie mnst transfer his ooal to Heading lailroad cars at llur risburg, at a cost; to him of say twenty oents a ton. Itul if one of the prefer red shippers shits his special cars to the same points ion the Heading road, his car and coil pass at once to the Beading road,-and without cost of transhipment. I Theso aro the complaints, and, if true, it Is evident that are niatlo with good reason. The lituminotis coal men have thousands nfdollars invested in their business. Tboy havo sustain ed heavy losses by reason of panic and strikes, and now, whin tboy aro look ing for a revival of ttado, and in some measure wero rogaiiing It, by reason of the anthracite troihles, tho Compa ny that should protest and encourage evory industry alongthoir road strikes a blow that must ruin hundreds ot men who naturally had a right to claim this great corjioratiol as their protect or ana incna. BOLD ROItllERY. Tho Vonango Sjiectator relates tho following: On Thursday evouing last, threo men came to tho house of Wil liam Prilchard. near Deinnsovtown. and Inquired tho distance to Franklin; they also askoit lor something to eat. They wero told to como in by Mrs. F. II. Prilchard, who lives in the house, and a lunch was tot before thorn. Af ter outing, they linked Willium l'ricli ard what tho charge was and he refer red them to his son Francis in an ad joining room, engaged In tacking down a carpet, 1 uey went U) the other room and wero told there was nothing to pay. Olio of tbo mon stopped back a few imees, drew a revolver and as tonished Mr. Pritihaidby tho demand, "your money uryour life nghlstraightl" Mr. Prilchard backed into the dining room, tho whole fhruo of the robbers following, each with a cocked revolver. The whole family wero then in tho dining room. The chief rohlwr then told tno other two to guard the doors. Francis I'ritchard told them to hold on, and he would give them tho pock, ot book containing all the money in tho llouso. Ho then went to a drawer, a robber follow ing him with a cocked revolver in one hand and a "billy" in the other, Tho robbor took the pocket hook, examined it, and said to Mr. l'richard: "You havo more money than that.'' Mrs. Frichard replied "search tho house then." The robbor commenced a search of tbo drawer, finding a silvor watch, which he pock eted. At this timo Mr. I'richurd's hired man, who hnd been watching his chances, spnnig for a door that led np stairs. The robber made a grab at him but. did not catch him.. Ho then snapped bis revolver at him. which fortunately missed fire. The hired man succeeded in getting to tho upper story and jumped cut of a win dow. The robbers heard the ash tall and the whole threo ran out to catch the hired man and prevent him from giving the alarm. That was the last seen of tho mhlHirs. The man rcturav ed in hour with Daniel Turner, John Turner, and George Turner, three neighbors, all armed, but the robbers had gone. The hired girl also suc ceeded in gutting uway without tbo thieves knowing it, botore tho In mi man mado his esuapu, hut rdio was too much frightened to do anything but concvul herself in tonic bushes, a short distnnce from Die bouse, until tbo rob bers bad left. The amount in the poclcot book was about four dollars and fitly cents. That and tho watch make tiio nut result of the thieves' rlabors. Mr. l'riuhard hud several thousand dollar in I ho house, which tho rascals might havo secured if they had nut been frightened by the hired man's ohcupo. That money, which no doubt caused the attack, is now where it ought to bo, deposited in oue of our banks, where it is perfectly info and is no lunger an incentive to robbery and perhajis murder. The lending villain was about six feet in height, with Burnside whiskers and dark clothes. . Tho other two wore about fivo foet seven or eight inches, dark clothes, stout built ; one with a gontooaud chin whiskers and tho other a mustache They wero all ol vory dark complexion, perhaps colored for the occasion. In their hurried depart ure they left a vulise containing some scraps of victuals, matchea,seissors and a comb. There was also a letter in tbo valiso, addressed "Mirecves, Mil lerstown." Its contents werei; "1 havo seen Jim and Andy. Martin will tell you the night we have set." Tho CBSTENSUL VISITORS. A correspondent of tho Now York World, in alluding to tho gigantic en terprise in which our townsman Is now engaged, says: "Now, as to the sight seers, ex-Govornor Bigler says that the matter has received tho careful at tention of the Board of Finance, and the number of visitors, pluced at the probable minimum, is estimated at 3,000,000. In tho main exhibition building alono there will bo twenty miles of avenue, more space than most visitors would care to cover in one day. In addition to the main building will be the many other attractive adjunct to bring the visitor on the grounds for mora tiiun ono day. An important question, then, Is, How often will be come? The gentlemen who have studied the problem say at least throe times. Tlireo entries for 3,000,00(1 peo ple gives a total of 9,0110.000 entries, which ex-Governor Iligler thinks a moderate estimate. A reliable firm, with extensive Kuropeau cunnenions, is already in receipt of advices which lead to the belief that all Kurope will be represented by ut least 500,0110 )ieo ple. The greater part of these will come from Great Britain and Germa ny; it is difficult to say Which will send the turgor number. This leaves 2,500, 000 to bo drawn from tho States and Territories, nearly all of which have given very promising assurances. Tho commissioners think, however, that the requisito number cun be relied up on without going vory liir in any di rection. Taking Philadelphia as a fo cus, there are, within a radius of 2.1(1 miles, 12,000,000 of people, allowing five members to each family: should each send a representative there will be 2,400,000 visitors from nenr-by points, leaving 100,(100 to come from oiiuddo tho limits named. The com missioners estimate 6(1,0(1(1 as the av erage daily attendance." Six horses, purchased in Boston for Senator Jones, of Nevada, were ship lied to him on Saturday.
