THE PEBLIC DEBT.
The?-work of • reducing the public
debt still "goes bravely on." During
the last month the amount has been
decreased nearly SEVEN AND A
HALF MILLIONS, which relieves
the country of the payment of over
$400,000 taxes. Thie is the result of
a skillful and honest management of
the finances, and confirms the confi
dence of the country In_ the Admin-
istration. 4Vithatever differences of
opinion may exist as to the wisdom
of the policy of rapidly extinguishing
the debt, there can be none as to the
fidelity with which the Administra
tion has-redeemed its promises to
the country. •
sir The , movement in favor - of

Representatives, says the Montrose
Republicari, seems to be ispiclly gain

We are glad to see this, for we think
his election would by a step in th'
direction of Legislative reform. Mr.
Wil3B has been a member of the
House for several terms, and, , has es
thblished a reputation as an chonest,i
incorruptible legislator, as well as a
sound and able Republican. Much,
hairbeen said of late years—and no
dOubt with too much troth—concern
ing corruption among ,Peunsylvania
legislators; but we have - noticed that
those papers which claim to under
stand the mater best and to individ
ualize, ^ all dist; JAltts H. WEBB
among the honest, incorruptible
members.
The new party movement'
which originated with the Chicago
Tribune and a few disappointed poli
ticians, is not meeting with the favor
its yrojectors had anticipated. The
people are satisfied that there is no
occasion for a new party, and will
not lend their aid,to build up an or
ganiranion, the only result of which
would be to agtfin place , the Demo
cratic party in power. The mission
of the Republican party is not yet
accompliajied, and until it is, the
people otthis great ration will not
permit it to be superseded or defeat-

” , tiluntsy continues to resist the
attacks of Frederick Charles, taking
many prisoners and inflicting heavy
losses on the enemy, From this yo
may judge how false are the German
dispatches, which state the army of

only half of that army, is still able
to successfully oppose the German
advance."
Naw YORK, Dee. 12.—A special dis
patch to the World from Pagis on
the 6th, Tours the 9th, and Brussels
and Versailles the 10th, contains the
following: '
The French hold Brie, Champigne,
Creteil, and Monte-a Neron. Du
crot's army on the 6th inst. was at
Nincennes. The german prisoners
in the recent battles numbered 800.
The French loss in killed, wounded
and prisoners, reached 6,780.
The indications are that. the next
sortie will be made on the north-east
along the Soiseons railway. The
Saxon headquarters:aie now remov
aback to Le Vert Gallant.
The loss of the 'Germans in the
sorties amounts to over 8,000 in kill
ed, wounded , and prisoners. The
loss of the Germane in the battles of
the Loire, exceed 7,000 men in kill
ed, wounded and prisoners.,
Intense relief was felt at Versailles
on receipt of the announcement of
the defeat of Aurelles.
The battles of the 7th and Bth be
tween Chanzy's 16th and 17th corps
and the army of the' Doke of Meek.-
lenburg, were extremely severe, the
French retreating only inch by inch,
and selling their positions dearly.
Chauzy finally abandoned the line of
the Loire and fell back on Vendome.
The. German advance on Havre
has been turned aside, and Dieppe
was probably occupied , by them to
day, the 10th inst.
The excitement in Brussels con
cerning the threats of - Bismarck
against Luxembourg runs -high. '
The - revision of, our State Con
stitution seems to be a question on
which all parties are agreed. Sena
tor 001 * !NELL has drawn up a bill to
be o ff ered at the next session of the
legislature callifig Coniention for
that purpose. If it shall do away
with the present flood of special leg
islation it will go far towards correct
ping the abuses of which men justly
complalit. 4 private letter - from
ex-Governor Cram has been pub
fished, in which he very properly
says:
"I am rejoiced , . to learn that au
earnest effort is abOutto be made to
secure a general revision of the Con
stitution of Pennsylvania by calling
upon the people of the State to exer
cise their sovereign power through a
chatuicl of a reform convention:
Surely such a movement' must meet
wiA the cordial approVia, and enlist
the positive efforts of the best men of
both parties, for the necessity of a
thorough reform is painfully appar
ent to all. .It is not in any sense a
question of party politics, and it
should be be preserved from the
dangers of mere partisan direction.
The revision of the fundamental law
of a great - Commonwealth like Penn
sylvania, after the lapse of a third of
a century, embracing a decade of
matchless progress, is a work of no
common magnitude."
S. C. R. R. low ORTASO.—As the
hills whiten with snow, and the
ponds congeal, and the savage.wintry
airs drive 'us to the fireside, our
thoughts naturally wander away to

time when , trains laden with - - cheap
coal shall thunder into our depots,
'and we begin to feel a pardonable

on the unfinished- "link" to hurry

that little section below Owego is

snce of one of the contractors. The
deep damnation of this man's walk

thousand dollars of the road hands'
wages iu his pocket. The men re
belled at vacant purses, and, -when
the track-layers came up to them,'
planted thewelves in the way. A,
horrid scene of carnage was arrested
by the track-layers being sent back

'Col. Welles at Past paid off la ipiser

with my budget of JIMISMIB4) for - thi
eigertaintnetttof the Bradforditer. I
have beenput 'on. a -tour of inspec
tion. Yesteriky, a friend and Ivo-
cured steam and started for a *
called Collins, s' village at the based
the Rooky Mountains. We drove
along the Comae 'La Padre about
eight. miles ; the endless prairie on
the right, the mountains-ahead, :and
on the left 'of us a long range of curi
ous bluffs, being about of a uniform
height,- and round in form, looking
like a succession of gigantio sand
hills, that had had a bard whirlwind
pass over ,them. The prairie will for
mile or two'
: present the _never
ending cactus, "unhealthy "
looking thorns, then , again no
thing is to' be seen but -wild sage
bush and buffalo grass.
As we drive along we occasionally
pass a ranch with its romantic gothic
dwelling, a. hut that is generally
about twelve feet scpiare and about
six or seven feet in height under the
eaves, the sides being bunt of 'mud
with a few slabs on top for the roof
cover, With a fonple of feet of dirt.
'kind some of the ranches there
would be five or six overgrown, lazy
men, whose whole aim seemed• to -be
to kill time; eveiy ranch has about a
dozen hard looking mongrels yelping
about your heels. As . there are a
great many trails across the prairie.
and no snide to go by, we have to.
ask our 'way; so we commence at
ranch No. 1.: ,Say, stranger, which
route do we take for Collins ? " Wall,
yon keep this side the creek for
about two miles, and if you don't
miss your road you'll . strike Bill
Johnson's ranch, and he will tell yon
which way to -go." "Thank - you,
can we buy a little milk from you-?"
I ask: "rugo in and see; (comes
out again) old woman says we ain't.
nary drop to spare." " Thank you
we will try at the next ranch." We'
drive on the next ranch, and are
greeted by our ,old friends, "the
dogs; woman comes to the door:
"Good day, Mrs., can you direct us
to the best crossing to get to Col
lins ?" "Yes, you keep right on till
yon come to am opening in the trees
on the river bank—l forget whether
it is the first or second one—and if
you come out at the right place on
the other side, you'll come to a mile
stone stuck on the end of a long poll
aid that'll tell you which road to
take." ." Thank von, can yon spare
us a little milk?" " Yes, Ino ger re
fuse a stranger milk." We get some
d then cross the creek and come
'to the mile stone, which is a piece of
board with the following inscription:
"CoLiss-14 MILLs—LiPoaTE 20
MILD." At the milestone or slab
there were three roads, but as the
above mentioned mile stone did not
point to any of them, we of course
took the wrong one. We drive on
for a couple of miles when one of our
horses jumps one side, and we hear
o rattle behind us, and as we turn
sound we see right in the track, an
enormous rattlesnake coiled up. I
get out and give him the contents of
one of our revolvers, which makes
him feel quite sick, as his head lies
in one place and his body in another.
Occasionally we start-up a herd of
antelopes, which ily away before us
like the wind; and again we come to
a dog town; the little fellows will sit
on their haunches looking ;it us• for
&moment, then give a bark, wiggle
their tails and scamper into their
holes. We keep on and see no sign
of any habitation, and I begin to
think we have lost our way, and so
ifturns out, for after driving about
twenty nites we 'come to a "city,"
consisting of a mill, a
,store, and
about six houses. We drive to the
store and ask what : plaCe is this?
and the reply is, "St. Louis." " Any
hotel in this place'?" " Yes, they
keep folks at that house sometimes,"
pointing to a particular one. Utile
house did not look veryinviting; we
thought we would go on. Turning
to the store-keeper, s we said: " Can
you tell us what time gig?" " Wall,
I reckon it is about (looking at the
sun through his hands, and then
turning back in the store)—Sal, these
gentlemen wants to know the time o'
day ?" " Sal " screams out from
some bidden recess, "Five o'clock i-t
" Thank you; how far is it to Col
lins?" "Sixteen miles." Away we
start, with the pleasant prospect of ,
sixteen miles further drive in the
dark across the prairie, but we pit on
a good face, look. to our revolvers,
light a cigar, and—travel. After a
couple of hours' drive, I see in the
distance, a light, then Will sees an
other,
fi nd I again a third. So I say,
"Will, we are surely boning to some
place of importance, as we have seen
three lights !" So it proved to be,
for we had at last' arrived at the
county seat of 'liarimy county—the
long sought for Collins We drive
for the first light and find a mill; a
man pokes his head out out of the
window, and we ask if there is any
hotel in the place. "Yes, the next
light," he answers. We drive about
a quarter of a mile and come to the
second light—two or three 'men in
'front of the door. " Halloo, there?"
)"Halloo yourself." " Is this a hotel?'
" I guess so." " Can we' get supper
here ?" "I guess so." Old Jody
Comes to the door. Can we 'stay
here to-night and get some supper?"
" Yes, all right; where is the ostler ?"
" The what?" " The ostler." " Who
is he?" "Some one to take care of
the horses." -" Ain't any here."
" Guess we' will have to take care of
them ourselves." " Beckon yo u
? will,
that's the was they hew.' " All
right, get us a light, and we ,we will
take them to the stable, and in the
meantimeget us some supper."
" Here, pin Joe, run to the 'Squire's
and buy a candle for the lantern and
hurry." After attending to the_
horses we returned 4-theliotel, and
after waiting about an hour, supper
made its appearance, and we "piled"
in. After supper we wanted some
cigars, and enquired 'if there were
any stores in the place, and were
told there was one—the, next light
' above. So we go for the gad light,
and find the store. " ' Have you any
cigars?" We asked' " No.". " Got
any pipes?" " No.' - Got any to
' bacco ?",- "Yes, thawing tobacco."
"What have you got ?" " Not much
of anything now; all sold out." "Any
more stares here?" No, but we are
going to build a lot of houses and

only fifty-five cents. The 'Squire is
olold, bachelor, not, over fifyls
d, and has got Mimi, iisoJa
.a4toollohance,fur. some 4oungJad,y.
who would like to deal in old bachel
ors and iron-handle jack-lodvea.`The
hotel was a
-long, low, log hoildlot
sleeping apartments anuatt'the fait
era p - ,nith - curtains around three 'or
four beds, so as to ,
divide &ion into
rooms.' On one end of the building
there is a large sign with "Collins
House" upon it; at the other end of
the building an arm projected about
three feet from the ground, and
hanging to it was a large rusty circa=
tar saw. I was study's% what use it
was for, when the old' woman came_
out armed with the shinbone of some
defunct monster and commenced
poundiegon it to call us to break-
Wt. Mter breakfast we harnessed
up and drove along the base of the
first range four or.five miles furper,
and came to another village, ',:called
La Porte. This place had two' stores,
some houses, and the "WashlngTos
sAutoN," kept•by A white man mar
ried to a squaw. - There were a nuta
-bar of Indian women here, and the
principal product otthe place seem
ed to be bad whiskey, half-breed
children, and dogs.
I thought I should like to go into
the second range of mountains, they ,
looked so rugged and grand; and I
wished to examine the forma tion, of
the reeks,. It seemed as if I could
walk' there in ten'minutes, but when
I enquired the distance, I was told
that it was six miles; and upon' ex
pressing my surprise, the man said
to me: " Do you see that house yon
der that looks as if were just ahead
of you?" '" Yes," I replied.
." How
far do you suppose it to be?" "About
a quarter of a mile." He laughed,
and. said it was just three miles.
Alter looking around a while longer,
we turned homeward, and arrived at
Greeley about 3 o'clock . ; r. 31., and so
ended: my first visit to the Rocky
Mountains. The next time I write I
will tell you all - about Greeley, what
we are doing, and what a fast people
we. are. ' For .the present, adieu, •

TERRIBLE AOOIDEBT.
ANOTHER WOMAN HORRIBLY
BURNED.
The wife of Mr. HIRAM KISCUUII,
who resides about five miles below
Elmira, On the river road leading to
Chemung, was burned in a most
'shocking and terrible manner yester
day afternoon.
Mrs. Ks-reams had occasion to. go
into the upper part of the house, in
the loft where there were no windows,
and found it necessary to take a lamp.
She took in her band a lighted lamp
containing .crystalized oil, but one
upon which the top was loose. In
moving about the top fell :from the
lamp and the oil was instantly in
flames.
Both the clothing t of Mrs. licrcarem
and the house in her vicinity were at
once on fire. With great presence
of mind_ and unusual courage she
seized a bed (pant and wrapped it_
about herself to smother the fire
which was consuming her
_clothing,
and went to work to extinguish that
which was burning the house.
Her cries for help brought the
members of the household to her res
cue, but not until'she was burned in
the-most horrible manna...4er. limbs
and her - body up to her waist, as well
as her, hands, and her arms to her el
bows,'were completely r i posted. Not
only the Skin but also_ the flesh was
burned to a crisp, and her
_sufferings
were of the most excrutiating charac
ter. The fire was kept from the up
per part of her body by the quilt
which she wrapped around her. Had
she attempted to save herself instead
of thq,building also, she would have
escaptid with far less injury, although
the house probably haw taten burned.
Dr. F. H. FLooti-or- this! city was
summoned to attend her , r is speedily
as.possible after accident., and every
thing that could be - done to alleviate
her sufferings. Her situation is ex
ceedingly critical, although : hopes
are entertained of her recovery.--'=.E/-
