Mr. Editor: IVrmit mo through
thccoliiinns ot jourpupcrto say u fuw
wunls in regard to the times. In the
yar 1K74. my brother and I assumed
the payment of the Clt ftrflo d Plaining
Mill Company 'a iinlvliteiJiii'sa, (having
a fourth interest in tbo Company pro
vioim to ibis lime,) tho liabilities were
851.000. the axrelH $04 000. Any one
looking at the figures would say that
wo could pay tho debta in full and have
$10,000 left, but bow different the re
sult. Tho firt year, by the aid of
$13,000 oi previous acquired cnpitul,
wo letlucvd the debt $27,000. Tbo
next year $9,000. Third j oar $4,000
and then offered the balance of Ihe
pioporly tor the remaining $14,000,
augl winch consisted of timber lund. steam
aw mill, planing mill and town pro
perly, onginully coming us $30,0(10,
and our creditors would not take it,
but kindly consented to reduce the
debt one half. Any one wishing: the
property can have it for $10,000, a loan
diicctto us ol $JO,000. In cuing thin
cane 1 do not east any reflection on
our creditors, lor they are all perfect
gentlemen, and did till in their power
to help us out of our difficulty ; but
llio tlumo is attributed to the system
of finance under which we are Buffer
ing. The money power, through the
leaders of the Republican party, have
bad control of the finance ol the
country over since 180, when they
effected through the Secretary of the
Treasury and tho Senate, the passage
it the legal tender ail in a mutilated
fin m "interest n bonds and diiliex
on imports made payable in gold"
tho duties on imports to pay the gold
interest on bonds. Had tbe interest
on bonus been made nuvtihle in cur
rency, mere would nave been no ne
cessity to have the duties nn imports
payable in gold und our government
wotiiu not nave discredited our
currency, liy refusing to take it for
duties on imports. This was the fii hi
act of treachory on our currency by
tho money power, but it was not ihe
lai-t. Every act passed during the war
was to dircredit our currency, in order
to get posseaoion ol it at thirty-five
etuis on tho dollar; so as to buy
hu bomls as cheap us possible.
How different ulier the war. ' First
Act. All bonds, treasury note', and all
other obligations of the government,
ahull be exempt Irom taxation, br or
untler Slate or municipul authority."
(Act ol June 30th, 18B4.) Although
passed betiuu the termination of the
war, this act belongs to this period.

ply anticipated events.
Contraction tgan in 18C5, August
31t, by Secretary McCullough. In
I860, Oct, 31st, tbo amiiunl contracted
was 1395,815 318.27. This policy
was persisted in until all evidences ol
ndebtedness of the government bear-1
ng currency interest, and having but
short time to run wero converted
into gold Interest long bonds. Ill tbe
meantime contraction bad done its
work, business men began to suffer,
and tbo industries of the country to
dtchne. ''Hugh McCullocb had lapped
great artery and let nearly all the
blood fiom tbo body politic."
Tbe next great act to prostrate Ihe
dustries ( f our Country was the
Specie Resumption Act, passed in
amiary 1875. Tho lion. Moses W
itld, of Miihigan, gives a detailed
atatement ol the profession and call
ings jal the Forty third House. He
said: "the Forty-third Congress, to
which I belonged was composed of 379
members. In this number there were
six lumbermen, thirteen manufacturers,
seven doctors, fourteen mi rchants,
thirteen lanners, three millers, one
land surveyor, one priest, one professor
of Latin, ono doctor of laws, one bar
ber, one mechanic, ninety. nine lawyers
und ono hundred and eighly-iiiiie
hankers, which includes stock-holders
in national bunks."
Farmers, mechanics, business m n
and day laborers, will you not arise,
shake off your lethargy and assort
your rights r, In tho hour of the coun
try's peril you are called to face the
bulb ts j in peace you are compelled to
pay all the taxes and support govern
ment officials. Why should you not
have a fair representation in Congress.
It is said by politicians that wo are
too ignorant, but we know enough to
mako laws to protect our own interests.
Tbe money power have controlled
tbe country sixteen years, rnd why
i ii-.. i .
nttiium not we nave control, wo are
nine-tenths of the population and we
let the one-tenth rule us. Real estate
is rapidly depreciating in value, which
will inevitably result in a general fore
closure oi mortgages, and transfer of
property. We are last drifting to "Enir
lund'a policy," where twelve men own
one half of all the real estate, th
balance are slaves. M. G. Brown.

JAMES L. OILLIS.
FEW INCIDENTS OP AN EVENTFUL LIFE.
Any man wbo bas lived in tbig sub
lunary sphere, ever since the year 1792,
and been at til active in tho pursuit of
Knnwludgo or lame or wealth, or even
a living, must of necessity have bad
very many Interesting experiences,
Think oi il away back to the year of
our Lord 1793 is long time sgo
almost a century. Washington was
then President and lived eight roars
after this, until 1800. At that distant
Jny, history tells us, there were thir
teen little States in this now glorious
Union of thlrjr eigbt. These Stales
were somewhere away East of us. W
have no doubt Judge Gillis could locato
tbem if it wore necessary, but thoy
were not far from our Atlantic coast.
Il was in ono oi those namely, Now
York where James L. Gillis first saw
the light of day. In this Slate "ho
livod and loved and aaw Niagara"
until th year 1822, when he removed
to 1 effurson county, Penn'a. This was
ool the far West, but it was some wars
South of iJsw York, but as sparsely
settled a ar. our Wtwturs plains or
mountain ranges of the present day,
and probably as wild country tk.n aa
,. 'us lujiy cdinpeleiff to tako 'carel atalwart Captain-; " What In h I are
of bitn.ell. About ' roughing" it, this
was one of the little experiences, we
are aliotit to relate :
At tbe time of tho last war with
England in 1812, ibo Judge was about
twenty jeais of age and was Dot tbo
kind of man to hold himsell alts it Irom
any dislui bunco of this kind. Ol course
he was iu for it, in lor the aar, ready
to do bis part aa far aa in bim lay in
honor ol bin Hug ami country.
In July, 1814, ho wus Lieutenant ol
cavalry and a as engaged in tbo buttle
of Luntly'a Lano, July 2.1 lb. Hu wus
among the 'first to eugiigv in tbe buttle
and the last to come out, and remem
bers distinctly all tbo incidents of tbe
day and night,
Soon after this battle he waa out
with a foraging party, and when three
miles from Ft. Krio was captured by
tbe British. This was on the 7lh of
August, 1814. Hu was paroled at
pluco culled Ueauport, below Quubee,
between tbe mouths of the rivers St.
Churles and Montmorency, bis parole
limiting bim io a space extending thrv
miles fiom the river. November 14,
1814, (sixty-lour years ago), be wa,
with twenty-five other prisoners, all
army officers, taken from their parole
and put ou board tbe transport ship
"Stuloly, about to sail lor Eugland,
under convoy of a Man of War. Nut
relishing a voyage across the Atlantic,
undersucb circumstances, Liuul.Gilli
with four others, concluded to muke
an effort to regain their liberty. Il
was, they all very wull knew, a very
bold and husardous attempt. Tbe
chances were aguinrt their being suc
cessful, but rather than be taken to
England as prisoners they decided to
risk it. The sympathies ot the other
prisoners wero with thoin and they
aided thetu while they were gutting
awuy Irom the vessel by loud songs
of revelry. Tho long bout belonging
to the " Stately " wus made fast at the
ship's side and drilling back of her
stern. Lieut. Gillis first got out of thu
cabin window in ihe siern ot the ves
sel, climbed down a ruddle at the ship's
stern, caught bold of the i sinter and
drew tho long boat under tho stern by
the window, 'J he five thon climbed
out, got in and with only a bottle ol
rum and a loaf of bread lor rations the
boat's painter was cast off and they
were sent adrilt, ibo tide drifting
them rapidly away down the river.
The first danger they encountered
was, their drilling on the chain of a
niguie at aiicuor neur. Uere il wus
almost a miracle thai ibey were not
capsized. Their boat rubbed against
the side ol tho Irigute and they were
hailed by ils watchman, but tbe night
being dark liny escaped detection and
drilled away, landing two miles below
Point Levi, ou the opposite side oi ihe
St. Lawrence. Leaving the boat, they
climbed the precipitous bunks.sat down.
ale llieir loaf, drunk their rum and
started, going towards tbo river Chau
diere, which empties into iho 8l. Law
rence above Quebec. Striking that
river as tbey supposed at duv light,
eleven miles from (Quebec, they took
to the Woods, going up that river, fol
lowing tbe woods during ibe ray and
the road by night. On the morning
of the second duy of their wanderings
they arrived at a Frenchman's cabin,
he telling tbem thai they were not on
the Cbaudiuru river, but a branch of it.
He gave them a breakfast of oatmeal
cakes and cooked onions, which, in
their condition, were very pa'atable.
Their host gave them three hitter oat
meal cakes, and informed them the1
were on the wrong route, and woul
have to go back to Santarie, on tb
Chaud'cra river, or tuke a marked line
through tbe wilderness for forty miles,
to St. Mary s, on the upper Chandicro,
They chose tho Isttor, after wandering
for three days through spruce and
brush. On the third day tbey reachei
a beech tree ridga and feasted on the
nnts of that tree, one ol their party
Lieut, rontaino eating shell and all,
bich gavo him the colio. Soon after-
wards striking a road, they came to
the cabin of another French settler,
and no ono being at home, they con
suited as to whether they should go i
help themselves to food and leave
money to pay for it, or go on. Con
eluding to leave the Cabin unmolested
they pursued their weary march, and
soon after met the owner of the cabin,
wno, wun ins lamily, was reluming
Irom St. Mary's, The Frenchman in
formed them that bills were up at St,
Mary's, offering $100 and tho King's
bounty a guinea for tho capture of:
each ono of the refugees.
They retured to tho Frenchman
cabin, wbo gave them food, and agreed
to pilot them through St. Mary's aa far
as St. r rancis, stating that he had a
brother at Iho former place, wbo would
assist them. This man, professedly
friendly, finally bit laved them to tbe
enemy. In bis company they set out
lor St. Mary's, arriving there at a late
hour, Here they found the brother
and were admitted into lb house.
Tbe distance irom St, Mary's to St,
Francis was only nine miles, and could
tbey have arrived at this place th.y
would have found a road cut through
the woods, and from there to the head
waters of iho Connecticut. The road
was cut by a man named Craig, in tbe
time of the embargo, several years de-
lore, for the purpose of smuggling cat
tle to Quebec, and from Quebec goods
on tbe return into tbe province of
Maine, J be road was sixty miles lonir,
through tb. woods the entire distance.
Thoy are now almost to this road.
which, bad tbey succeeded in reachinir.
tbey would have been sale from dangers
oi capture,
Altor secreting themselves in this

crying "murder I" when Hunt and
Clark cumo up and told him be was

Each prisoner wus placed iu a culush,
and wilb a driver, also wilb a guard,
were started buck to Point Levi. A
culush is a two-wheeled curriugo, like
an old fashioned gig, with a wooden
apron hung upon hinges. Tho one
having Lieut. Gillis in charge wus the
sumo Freiichinaii whom bo had beaten,

how be bad been mistaken and whip

trip lo Q iebee, and on arriving there
were put In Jiul for sale keeping, the
Fall fleet having sailed lor Eugland.
Alter three duys they were taken bo-
lore a Magistrate and arruigued on the
cburge of having stuleli Ula Majesty's
long boat, and the ieiialij for stealing
was deutb Our prisoners employed
a tatikee lawyer named Cuibberi,
loriuerly of Boston, to defend them,
and be shrewdly look ihe position that
iho British having lakuu tbem Irom
parole, they were, al the limo ol the
alleged stealing, lawful enemies ul His
Majesty, the King, and added lhal il
lliu prisoners bad destroyed the entire
fleet they would have been justified by
the luws ol war. This plea saved them
and they were acquitted, when they
weie put on board a brig and sent, as
regular prisoners of war, to the prison
on Alollullu Island, where were gatb
ored about 1,100 other prisoners. The
Judgu afterward learned from D
James Rush, of Philadelphia, that this
lawyer Cuibberl's wife was a daugh
ler ol Benjamin Rush, and a sister ol
his und Richurd Iiuah.
At this prison in Mellville tbey were
onfined in a building fitted up with
slulls und ulleys. In euch of which
stulls wus swung twenty -seven ham
mocks. Here they again attempted lo
escape, but were foiled by the cowurdice
of one of ihe night gunrds whom they
linil bribed, and who, al th last mo
ment, betrayed tbem. For this at
tempt, one of their number, a sailur,
was put into a dungeon ior ten days,
and given only broad and water, but
bis companions managed to supply him
pluntilully with rum and rations, so
that he tared very well. Here they
wero kept about lour weeks and then
again paroled al Dartmouth, opposite
llulilax, where they remained Until
April, when peace having been eon
eluded they wero sent to Salem, Mass.
At balom, they were royally enter
tained hy one Captain Crowninshield,
a resident, who was with them al
Mellville Island, near Halifax, and
who was, Ibe Judge thinks, tbe brother
of the Secretary of th Navy under
Jefferson or Madison.
After tho war in 1818, Mr. Gillis
made a journey to Michigan Territory
on horseback, being in Detroit when
there was only on brick bouse there.
There be met the celebrated Ixird Sol
kiik, oi Scotland, who, having located
a colony at Mauatobn, was then on bis
way to Montieal to attend a suit
brought against bim lor trespass by
the Hudson's Buy Company. Lonl
Selkiik bad traveled Irom Manatoba
lo Saginaw in a dog train, and here he
employed a sleigh to tuke him to Do-
IroiL Mr. Gillis accompanied Selkirk
as tar as Ancustrr, near tho head of
Lake Ontario. Tho Judge describes
him as a thin visaged, tough, sharp
Scotchman. Not until four years aim,
during a cruise with his son ou Luke
Superior, did be learn what particular
trespass Selkirk had committed. Here
be fell in wilb Mr. McLaren, in the
employ of the Hudson's Bay Company,
wno gave him the particulars. The
Company bad agreed to furnish Selkirk
and bis colonists transportation from
tort Chippewa, but on their arrival
there, refused for some reason to com
ply with their agreement. This was
a great disappointment to Selkirk, and
be determined to obtain by strategy
what was denied bim. Accordingly he
invited tbe officer of the Fort to dine
wi'.h bim, and succeeding in makinir
ibe entire party drunk, while they were
under the influence of bis rum, Lord
Selkirk helped himself to boata and
whatever was necessary, and nut out
for his destination. Hence the suit, i
Soon after the oiganizaiion of Jeffer
son eonnty, Pennsylvania, Mr Gilln
was appointed Associate J udga ot lb
eonnty hy Governor Porter, and ae-a I
on tbe organization of Elk county, w
appointed Judge in tbateouuty. Ue

1 be Judge relates a veri interesting
story about a liitlexwrtinc be one
had witb ex Governor C.rlin, ol Pent
sylvania, where ihey pitted eucbr for
bull ; but be duvliiers to bsv the
particular published At any rate
the Governor won ihetull. Tbe Judgu
is now in the f7lh year ol bis age. He
has bad (org and Wenilul life, and
having aid. sprtad acquaintance
with many of tb leading men of our
country, h can Ml many thiog oil

mate iriend of James Buchanan, and a
member of tb Convention that nomi-i
nntud l)ltri.vijii!j,'i,''-u!tt . .
Judge Gillis has now nine children
living, only two of them living at
Mounl Pleasant, namely, Roburl S. a,nd
Charles H. Gillis. One daughter re
sides in tbu Stale of New York, one in
Pennsylvania, one in Detroit, Mich.,
and one iu Bvardstown, 111. One son

The Judge, despite his great ago, is
ul present iu the eiijoyniuut of good
health and spirits, and hurdly looks It
be over 60. That be may yet live lo
vole for several more Democratic
Presidential candidates, and see them
sulely installed into office is thu sincere
wish ol his many Irieuds.
AN ELECTION DECISION.
Judge Hoggs, ol Armstrong county,
recently gave a decision in an election
case Ihut possesses general interest
In Washington township, tbut county,
the Republican Inspector hud appoint
ed the Judge and two Clerks, all Re
publicans. He had also sworn ihusu,
officers, notwithstanding tbo require
ments of tbe law, that tho Judge, al
hast, shall bo Bworu by thu minority
Inspector. A lurlber objection was
presumed thai the ballot-box bad not
been sealed, and bud been lull in ibe
custody oi an unauthorized person from
Tuesday uigbl until Friday uiorning,
The objections were presented and
argued hy E. S. Golden and John Gil
pin, K-q.'rs, while the election officers
wero represented by Hon. J. V. fain
ter, J. tl McCain and David Barclay.
Alter a full bearing tho objections w ere
overruled, and Ibe Court directed tbe
returns to be counted.
Judge Boggs held that while thu ap
pointment oi election officers w as irreg
ular, and ugsiusl the provision ot the
law, yel inasmuch as they had taken
upon themselves the duties ol tho seV
elul appoinlmints, bad held the elec
tion, and no olijucliou had been im.de,
and aa no clauu ol truud or unluir
means had been net up or proven, be
was unwilling tosuy that the uieru luci
of irregularil) , and even illegality in
the constitution ol the Board should so
tar viiialu the election as to make il
null und Void.
Tho count was therefore proceeded
with, and the result in thu county will
be as heretolbre slated the election
ul thu Dumocralio Assemblyman and
two County Commissioners the I'ul
ance of the ticket Republican.
