SATURDAY, JULY 0, 1878.
A final dividend of a farthing in the
pound has been declared in the case, of tho
London bankers Stralian, Paul & Bates,
whoso fraudulent falluro in 1855 made such
a sensation.
We have received from L. F. Farmer,
general passenger agent of the Pcnna. K.R.,
a ncatlittlo hand-book handsomely illustrat
i ing the attraction gf Capo May as a sea-side
resort. If you think of going there, send for
a copy of the book by nil means.
An oil train on tho New York Central
Itailroad, about ten miles from Albany, was
thrown from the track Saturday night and
completely wrecked. A rail had been re
moved and robbery was probably tho object
of the scoundrels who committed tho deed.
Tho trial of Benjamin Hunter for tho
murder of John M. Armstrong, in Camdenj
X. J., resulted Wednesday evening in a vcr
dictof murder in tho first degree. The jury
were out but ashorttimc. Prisoner's counsel
intend to tako the case to the Court of Errors.
On Sunday last we took a short stroll
around the suburbs of Ivnox, to tako a look
at the wheat fielfls. Stark Co. (Intl.)
Ledger.
Friend Slusselman, don't you think it
would have set abetter example 16 your
readers if you had gone to church instead of
viewing the wheat field on tho Sabbath?
Wo are afraid you have become sadly de
praved since leaving old Carbon.
The revenues of tho United States for
tho fiscal year just closed show a decline of
$10,393,709, of which $1,039,149 was in cus
toms and $8,429,451 in tho internal revenue.
Tho expenditures for tho ordinary Govern
ment expenses declined $5,914,881, whilst
tho debt interest increased about $5,875,000.
Tho operations of tho year show about $23,
000,000 surplus.
July usually ushers in tho extreme heat
of tho season, but this year it camo some
what in advance. Tho last few days of June
were among the hottest that aro often re
corded, and Sunday, tho last day of June,
according to telegraphic reports has had no
parallel in tho history of somo localities, es
pecially in New England. Tho thermome
ter, Sunday, at Boston was 90, 102 nt
"White River Junction, Vt., 100 at Lowell,
98 at Laconia, N. II., 102 at Bangor, Mc,
and 100 at Manchester, N. II.
Tho now national bank note circulation
taken out during the month of Juno amounts
to $1,400,000. Except for tho repeal of tho
contraction of tho Resumption act tho Se
cretary of tho Treasury would now bo oblig
ed to cancel $1,120,000 of United States legal
tender notes, tho clauso repealed having
directed tho cancellation of United States
notes to tho amount of 80 per cent of new
bank notes issued. As it is, however, tho
legal tender note circulation cannot be di
minished, while there is no limit to tho
issue of bank notes except tho ability to end
them.
Congress appropriated $8000 forlhepur
Iose of observing tho total solar eclipse on
the 29th of. this month. As soon as tho
money was available, Admiral J. Rodgers,
Superintendent of tho U. S. Naval Obsorva
tory, began to mako preparations for as full
and cxhausliveobservations as tho means at
his disposal warrauted. Tho preparations
aro now completed, and tho observing part
ies will soon tako tho field fully instructed
ns to their duties and tho work carefully
mapped out and divided up among tho dif
ferent observers. Tho jiolariscopo and tho
spectroscope will bo used to examine the
corona of tho sun during totality. As tho
duration of totality will not bo moro than
three minutes in the North and two and a
half in Texas, all tho observers will bo re
quired to work very rapidly to obtain the
required observation.
Thero is nothing that tho wholo circlo
of communists, socialists, grecubackcrs, and
po-called labor reformers, hato so much as
usury, which their organs define to bo
neither ten per cent, nor six per cent, nor
twojpercent. butany per cent, at all. Thero
Is, however, a most effectual way of defeat
ing this enemy and annihilating Shylock,
which they seldom or never alludo to, and
that is, don't borrow any money nor incur
any debts. Just why a man who puts his
money into a house or farm can draw rent
for it, whilst ho who lends it out for others
to use should get nothing for it, is not very
apparent, but certainly there would bo none
of tho latter class if Interest were abolished.
Tho country might in that caso long and
sigh for railroadsbut none would ever bo
built, because people who lend their money
for such purposes want some return for it.
If tho efforts now being made to open
up foreign markeU for anthracite coal should
prove successful, it will bo a good thing for
a great many workers in this State, besides
the coal miners now employed for only
portion of tho year in supplying homo mar
kets. Tho exhibit mado by the Reading
Railroad Company at tho Paris Exposition of
coals and anthracite burning stoves should
direct the attention of a groat many people
in Southern Europo to the value of tho fuel,
and aidotlicr efforts now being mado to open
up markets lathe Mediterranean, India and
South America also off-T opirartunilies for
speculative experiments, and may,, in time,.
bo induced to use Pennsylvania coal in pro
ferenco to.BritUh. Such a largo proportion
of tho cost of coal in foreign ports arises from
the cost 'of transportation, resbipineut and
wale; carriage, that I lie benefits arising
from trade In. this commodity are pretty ture
to U widely distributed Lclyu.
II. V. MORT1HMEU,

Points in Politics.
Cincinnati! Gazelle thinks that " the
Thurman crowd is on top" in Ohio.
'ho St. Paul Press has this verv accur
ate head lino : "Politlcsand Other Frauds."
Cincinnati Commercial: ' Ex-Scnalor
Harlan ' has consented' to run for Congress
in tho First Iowa district."
Washington Post (dem, : " It is now
perfectly apparent that John Sherman wrote
that letter at the dictation of of Tho Jenks."
Tho Baltimore Gazette (dem.) intimates
that tho mention of Tildcn as a possible
Presidential candidate in 1880 is a piece of
exquisite humor.
Baltimore Gazette (dem) : "Jlr. Steph
ens is a very able gentleman and a kind
hearted person, but his presence in Congress
is not absolutely necessary to tho promo
tion of our pecular system of government,"
, Tho democratic House of Representa
tives wero responsible for tho present Indian
troubles. The Southern members beliovo
that "charity begins at home." Hcnco tho
food supplies at tho agencies are short.
Courier-Journal: "Ohio farmers aro
receiving circulars which run as follows:
Sir You aro requested not to use, in taking
your grain or grain crop off, a rcaiwr or
mower, under pain, of having them and
barns destroyed by fire."
Chicago 2Vi6une. "Whether Mrs.
Jenks, Weber, Anderson or anybody else
wrote this letter it would fail in its purjioso
of convicting Secretary Sherman of dishonor
able action, oven if his alleged authorship
thereof had not been disproved."
Baltimore Gazette (dem.) : "Jlrs.
Agonies Jenks, tho femalo Munchausen will
neverconvinco tho American jwoplo that the
Sherman letter was woven from tho active
loom of her brain. It sounds, too much liko
John Sherman."
Tho St. Louis Post thinks that Ohio will
bo democratic.
Democratic journals seem really alarm
ed at tho talk about renominating Grant.
Tho democrats of Somerset county,
Pennsylvania, favor General A. Coflroth for
Congress.
Samuel Dick is the republican candi
date for Congress in Crawford county, Pa.
An Indiana greenbacker said in a con
vention the other day that he had more re
spect for Jeff Davis than for John Sherman.
Hartford Courant: " Orville Grant has
apparently heard from Ulysses. Was it a
cable message reading: 'Hold your tongue,
and dou't bo such a blanked fool.' "
Ito.ton Journal (rep.) : " A prominent
Virginian writes tea friend lit Boeton that
he considers tho Porter resolution tho most
injurious thing to the South that has hap
jienod 6inco tho paeago of tho ordinauco of
eccosdioii."
Nasby:"Hevin full faith that wo
shall elect another dimocrat Cougris, and
kuoivinthatef wodo this matter uv pen
shuin and aymcnt for projwrty destroyed
is a tleod mre thing, I am content not to in?
sift upon Tilden and reform."
- Philadelphia Timet idem. 1 t Senator
Reyburn announces that he will contest tho
republican nomination for Congress witli
Judge Kellcy In the Fourth district. Ho got
his present place by tho folly of his prede
cessor. Senator Davis, getting cross-eyed in
politics looking with longing eyes from tho
Senate to Congress, and he will repeat tho
lesson for the benefit of somebody else if ho
makes tho contest against Judgo ICclley."
Kent county, in Michigan, is nearly
unanimous for the theory of paper money.
Tho Cincinnati Enquirer (dem.) says
tho nomination of Grant by the republicans
is a foregone conclusion.
Tho Philadelphia Press (rep.) acknow
ledges that tho next delegates In Congress
from tho South will be solidly democratic.
Reading Times: "Andrew G. Curtln
will, it is rumored, tako tho democratic
nomination for Congress in his district If
ho can get It."
Tho Boston Traveller says that tho
national Senate is lost to tho republicans,
but witli a proper effort they can retrieve
tho House of Representatives.
The Springfield Republican (Ind.) says
that tho evidences multiply that there is an
organized movement for tho nomination of
Grant to tho Presidency in 1880.
The Springfield Republican (ind.) be
lieves that nothing short of a belief in its dire
necessity by tho Independent electors would
causo tho re-election of General Grant as
President.
