A Now About Wlalzky
After passing through two or three hands,
we received the following open letter, from
Collector Wiley :
UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE,
Collector's Office, 9th District, Pen na,,
Lancaster, Feb. 29th, 155.
A. lf. Rambo; Esq.:
13.nt: You are respectfully Informed that
every effort was made by me to ascertain from
when Distillery the forty barrels of whisky,
seized In a car at Columbia, came from.
And In addition to my own efforts—three
different Revenue officers were detailed for that
purpose immediately after the seizure of the
whisky—fffi of Whom failed to discover either
the evidence sufficient to assess the tax, or to
sustain a forfeiture army Distillery.
If, however, you areaware of any evidence in
thls case, and 11111 produce it—it is not too into
to assess the tax, or to seize the Distillery.
Respectfully, '
•
W. 11. WILEY,
. •
Collector.
Although nettling was said by the author
of the above, us to its publication, we infer
that he desired it, from the fact that especial
care was taken to inform the person, who
left the letter at this office, to first show it
to one who had no right to see it, and who
has in no manner been mixed up with the
affair which hes given rise to this discus
sion.
Hereafter when Wiley, or any other
person, sees fit toaddress us, wo will thank
them to do so without first publishing the
seine to the world. If informatibn is de
sired elsewhere than of us, let the Collector
address his missives accordingly—we want
no circumlocution ; but desire to lirstknow
what our correspondents Want, and who
they are.
AH the Collector manifests a laudable
desire to obtain evidence which will lead to
the collection of the tax, due on the forty
barrels of whisky, seized in this placesome
months since, or the seizure of the distillery
from' whence It came, we are disposed to
accommodate the gentleman. But in Ow.
ing the witnesses upon the stand, we wish
it distinctly understood that it is not our
province to cross question them, but merely
to suggest such leading questions as will
have a tendency to bring out all the facts.
The first person we shall call is Samuel J.
ticebee, Esq., now residing at Safe 114rbor,
in this county.
Ask him when, and where he seized the
forty barrels of whisky reierred to abovp

whisky/Al, than he would receive. by send

Whether said Ilreybill went to it certain
landlord on East King street, and told him
that " It was too late now to buy off the wit
nesses, as the whisky was fast."

WITH shipped, and iltVoiced Its two 111111111;d
bags of eurn:'
‘Vhy is the Collector so anxious to have
all the whisky rim into Bitoer's ware
house?
Call the Messrs. Miners, and ask them
the Imtn, of the person who made the bar
gain for the use of the car, and the IMMO of
the person Who Wits present and overheard
the conversation ; also, at what place this
whisky, involved its Corn, was shipped,
and in whose nerve•.

OM Jacobs, of Alaytown, and ask hint
what he knows about the matter, and

the Collector's ollice, saying, II they came

What Gan. Grant Fiala in 1801
The Randolph Mo., Citizen publishes
some interesting reminiscences of Gen.
Grant, one of which wo copy below:
In the summer of 1861, General Grant,
then Colonel of the 21st Illinois regiment
of infantry, was stationed at Mexico, on the
North Missouri railroad, and had command
of the post. Ulysses the silent was then
Ulysses the garrulous, and embraced every
fair opportunity which came in his way to
express his sentiments and opinions in re
gard to political affairs. Ono of these decla
rations we distinctly remember. In a pub
lic conversation in Ringo's banking•house,
a sterling Union man put this question to
him " What do you honestly think was
the real object of this war on the part of the
Federal government?"
" Sir," said grant, " I have no doubt in
the world that the solo object is the restora
tion of the Union. I will say further,
though I am a Democrat—every man in my
regiment is a Demoorat—and whenever
shall be convinced that this war has for
its object anything else than what I
have mentioned, or that the Government
designs using its soldiers to execute the
purposes of the abolitionists, I pledge you
my word as a man and a soldier, that I will
not only resign my commission, but will
carry my sword to the other side, and mat
my lot with that people."

Row AMONG THE RADICALS.—After the
election for delegates to the Radical State and
National Conventions was over, on Satur
day night, there was much anxiety among
the members of that party to learn the re
sult. Quite a crowd collected around the
Examiner office. It was not not a harmoni
ous assembly, "not by no manner of
means." The rivalry had been too bitter
for either party to accept a defeat with
equanimity, and the result was a row of
magnificent proportions. Night was made
hideous by the loud profanity of the crowd, r
and several fights showed what wonderful
love these radicals have for each other. The
hideous din, the fierce wrangling and the 1
fighting progressed so vigorously that the ;
police were compelled to interfere in order
to prevent the two factions from engaging

BALD EAGLE SHOT.—Ou Sunday last
Christian H. Charles, of Manor. township,
shot on his farm a bald eagle, which meas
ures seven feet 9 Inches from tip to tip of Its
wings, and whose weight is about twelve
pounds. The claws of the eagle are fully
two inches in length, and are very sharp at
the points. Mr. Charles fired three shots
before he succeeded in bringing the noble
bird to the ground; the first ball from the
rifle struck the eagle on the side, severely
injuring it and crippling its leg; the eagle
then dew some distance, and being fbl
lowed by Mr. Charles, it was again struck
by a (rifle ball in the breast; finally the
third ball completely disabled ono of its
wings and brought it to the ground. After
receiving all these wounds the eagle lived
until yesterday evening, over twenty-four
hours from the time it was shot.
. _ .
There was another eagle with it when it
was first discovered, but on the report of
the rifle it flow away toward the river. Mr.
Charles pr poxes having the eagle stuffed,
and brought it to town this morning for
that purpose, The bill of the eagle is yel
low, which indicates that it is full grown.
The celebrated ormithologlst, Audubon,
has termed the eagle "The bird of Wash
ington, and gives the following reason for
doing so: "Washington was brave, so is
the eagle; like it, too, he was the terror 9f
his foes; and his fume, extending from
poleto polo, resembles the majestic soar
logs of the mightiest of the feathered tribe.
r America has reason to be proud of her
Washington, so has she to be proud of her
great eagle."
ANOTHER Now RAILROAD.—It has re
cently been proposed to build a railroad
from the borough of York, York county to
Peach Bottom. Ternon's Mining Register
comments upon the enterprise as follows:
" York is one of the great counties of
Pennsylvania, its area being 925 square
miles, five square miles more than Berks
and twenty-five square miles less than Lan
caster. York, the county town of York
county, is centrally situated, contains a con
siderable and increasing population, and
ranks with Allentown, Easton, Wilkesbarre
and Williamsport, For Investments in
railroads, however, we are not aware that
York, hitherto, has been distinguished,
though not a few of its citizens are opulent,
allot its citizens are industrious, and many
of them are enterprising.
If the people of York so will and deter
mine, they can make York a city that will
rise in position equal to Reading, Lancas
ter and Harrisburg: it is already the seat
of important manufactures, and only wants
a few short railroads diverging from it, in
different directions, to make It the domino:
tMg centre of large operations. In 1860 York
county contained 08,200 of population, and
was in number of indwellers the ninth
county or the State.
The road to Peachbottom will some day
be built, by somebody, because Peachbot
tom is distinguished for its slate quarries,
and, besides, the sealed territory south of
Columbia, on bothsides of the Susquehanna
and on both sides of the State line, will ore
long be stimulated and developed by the
mileage,
and the connection, of the Colum
bia and Port Deposit and Philadelphia and
Baltimore Central intersecting lines. The
Susquehanna River will be bridged, for
railroad purposes, between Columbia and
Havre do Grace, and combinations and
counter combinations, on a small scale, will
for a time be " the order of the day."

A FARMER writing to BAuon & SONS, says he
used their Raw Bono Phosphate last spring,
and found it to be all its friends claimed for it
—used It on corn, broom corn, potatoes, straw
berries, and the various hinds of vegetables,
with the most satisfactory results. Another
one says, owing to the excessive wet weather
his corn did not mature properly, but he is
satisfied where he applied the Phosphate there
was 50 per cent, more corn than where lt, was
not used. Another used It on eight rowed yel
low flint corn which he found to be larger and
more prolific than formerly—the oars being 11

showing 12 to 19 rows per ear—this land was In

• •
Dr. S. //. Hartman & Bents.—Mr. Abra
ham Martin, of this county, paid me a visit on
the 10th of December last. l observed an ulcer
oehind his ear, and his eyes also were sore.
On questioning him, he told me that he had
several ulcers on his legs, and small ones all
over his body, and even among the roots of his
hair, with shooting pains Wong the bones.
I advised him to write to you, and see whet
you would nay of his case, knowing Dr. Hurl
man to be a practising physician of the old
school. He followed my advice, and wrote to
you all the facts; which you answered by
stating, that his disease was Scrofula, or some
other constitutional disease, and you advised
him to take Mlshler's Green Label Bitters. Ile
bought six bottles of Dr. Elimaker a druggist
in Lancaster, and commenced with a table
spoonful every three hours, and gradually in•
creased the dose to a email wine-glamitil, and
then diminished gradually again to the same
dose be began with; he said these were your
directions. I saw him this morning, hale and
hearty—perfectly cured—even his eyes are well
which I consider remarkable, as I have known
persons to be afflicted with inflamed eyes all
through life. I never saw a man more delight
ed; and having myself been cured of a most
terrible, lingering Dyspepsia, about a year ago,
by your Bitters, I asked him if he had any in
the house. "0, yes," said he. And going to the
cupboard, banded me a bottle half (all, and
saying. " this is what I have left from the six
bottles." I took a swallow, and It two ed so un
like the Bitters that I had taken, that I was
sure it was not Mahler's Bitters ; and be hav
ing never taken any other, decnrixed, that he
bought it for Mishler's Bitters. Unable to de.
ride the question, I concluded to write to you,
and ask it you have more than ono kind,
Yours, most respectfully,
CHARLES FORREY
ANSWER:
LANCASTER, Feb. 111,11, 1:401
Dear Sir Yours of the
Mr. Charies l'urrey
10th last., is at hand, and In reply, would say,
we make three kinds of Bitters. The ono you
used for Dyspepsia Is called
MISHLER'S HERB BITTERS,
generally sold for a dollar, or one dollar and
twenty-five cents a bottle. It Is always used
for Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Kidney Affections
and Diseases of the Lungs and Throat, &c,;
and in these it is a sure and permanent remedy.
Dr. Hartman, ou referring to his books, finds
that we have cured, since the 2d of July, 1807,
the time we became the proprietors of this in
stitution, 213 cases of Dyspepsia; 78 of Chronic
Rheumatism; 107 of Lingering Coughs and
Colds; 03 of Kidney Affections; 17 of Yellow
Jaundice; 'Z.I of Neuralgia; 43 of Headache,and
Mick Headache; 10 of Lumbago or Pain In the
Back; 10 of (leneral Debility; of Chills and
Fever, and 27 not well defined.
There are, of course, thousands who have
used Mohler's Herb Bitters, that never visited
Dr. Hartman, nor wrote to him, with doubtless
the same effect, But the number above given
are carefully recorded In it book, with their ad
dress, Those that have visited the Doctor are
marked V. and those that have written to li he,
W. This book Is open to even ybody, and all of
them can be written to, if desired.

H OVER'S CARBONIZED PAPER.
From Pmfemor Booth, U. EL Min!.
PIIILADIMPLIIA, Jan. 19Lh, 1807
I have temed htovaa's -CARBON D PAPER'
wilh the ordinary Mks, and found that the
writing became instantly blackened and re
mained so—more black in fact than the name
ink on ordinary paper, oven after long ex
posure. One advantage of this paper is, that
even if a pale ink be used on It, the writing
becomes fully blackened as last as applied to
the paper; um, obviating au incOnvenience
often experienced by the eye in reading what
has been written. 'fills advantage In the Inure
available, from the almost uaiversal use of
steel pens, and the consequent employment of
weaker and paler inks, In order to prevent the
too rapid corrosion of the pen.
t am acquainted with the materials employed
In rez ar Hover's eatol Vapor,
azarntonl;thntt;= not aure
tile paper, but that they will rather tend to its
more perfect preservation.
