THE Philiidelphia North zinteri , an
makes the ,ertinent suggestion that
a very large part of the clamor that
t,
is raised in reference' to the indebt
dness' of I he Southern States is
intendetl to' "Make a case upon which
a demand can be based that the
United States Government shall
assume and pay the bonds." There
is a good deal of force in this hypo
thesis, and the election of a Demo
cratic President and Congress in
187 C would probably soon be follow:
ed by a formal presentation and
recognition of the "demand."

county. It is highly complimentary
that the.suggestion should come from
the only other county in the district:
" Bradford and Wyoming counties

a Senator must be elected this fall.
The best man named for the position
in our judgment is M. C. Merotr, of

much for. the industrial interests of

has very considerably built up its
material wealth, and is a bright ex

probably better acquainted with the
kind of legislation necessary to pro

of State policy, is bitter against chi

good men in opposing the trickery

do herself honor in selecting him as

A (TREAT LAND SUIT.
TLe great snit of Tuescru. against'
Yki.I.PEE et al., involving f four thou
sand acres of coal land in Lnzerne
county, Pa., has been decided in
'favor of the defendants.
The land in dispute was in the
vissession of the TuaNnut.r. family
years before Coal was known to.exist
there. JAMES TIAINEL - LE., deceased,
was the last of the family in whom
the title rested.- unconscious of its
value, or careless of his Artist, he neg
lected to maintain it free from tax,
and it was sold at treasurer's sale
for arrears of taxes, and finally fell
-into:" the -hands of Pr.lios and other
largcapitalists
JAMES' TT:lin:Cll. died about forty
years ago, in Philadelphia, leaving a
divorced wife and one Ef?1:1. The lat
ter went to sea some years after his
father's death. In l8:52, the lands
basing become of great value, the
mother of young
,TuaNnutn deter
mined make an effort to substan
tiate his clairri to the title. Effort
was made to recall young Tua.saunn,
but no trace of him. could be found for
20 years, when he was heard of in
"Mazatlan, Mexico, and summoned to
the United State. He had been
living a life of adventure during his
absence, having been shipwrecked
several times, nearly murdered by
Mexicans and robbed of the accumu
lation of 'years. He was a forty
niner in California, and had made a
comfortable fortune in the gold
mines in two years.. He arrived in
Philadelphia- in Psi 2,. and the pro
ceedings for the ejectment of. the
parties in possession of the land *ere
begun. - The case came np last sum=
tiler, but was' postponed, and a final
hearing was begun last month, with
the result stated: The title of the
defendants. under the deeds given at
the treasurer's sale was held to be
-perfect..
=
A STAM convention of the friends
of prohibition was held in Harr/is
burg last month,. Hon. S. B. CHASE,
President. The corr:mittee on reso
lutions brought in a majority report
in favor of a straight prohibition

ance, the attempt to form a third

unfOrtunate and• ill-timed by ;► . large

The majority report was adopted,

vote of twenty-ono to sixteen The
Thnipercioi; Vindicator, Col. 'GEO. F.

"The resolve to nominate State
officers does not commend itself to
our judgement. We fear that while
it will produce no immediate valuable
result, it will divide and distract
prohibitionists, and prevent united
effort in executing the other part of
tho resolve. We are glad the matter
was deferred until the reassembling
of the,convention, a call for, which we
publish elsewhere. We shall await
developments with much solicitude."
IN commenting on the duties o

ea lastltiftter; the , York Press says
"A State and county • tax must
have been paid at least one month
before the day of election, to entitle
any one to a right ..to vote. When

Temperan Law.' and it -will gratify
the friends of temperance to learn
that the Supreme Court of that State
has Put rendered a decision constru
ing ita swam' g and affirming its
nstica.
" The statue is broad and sweep
ing in its lino - s ens. I renders both
the liquor dealer and the owner of
the premises where the liquor is sold
jointly liable for all damages, direct
or consequential, which may result to
the persons, property, I or means''of
support' of any one, from the sale or.
giving way of intoz . icating liquors.
The law, amid many other salutary
enactments, also provides that if the
owner of the premises' here the liq.
nor is sold is a minor, then the pri
vate party of his guardian, wherever
situated, shall be held liable instead
of the property of the Minor. Strange
that Illinois, with such an eicellent
law on her statute book,' could ever
need the efforts of temperan cru
saders.
"The .facts in the case just ad
judged upon by the Supreme 'art
will interest your readers by sho •
thepractical working of the law, and
one method by which the vice of in
temperance can be combatted by
statute. The evidence showed that
one Thomas Addis got a drink of
whisky at the 'saloon of Maurice
Emory, and was afterward seen going
into this saloon, as well as other sa
loons. He became 'intoxicated, and
the next morning wrs found upon
the track of the Illinois Central Rail
road, having - A:keen cut Ito pieces, 'evi
dently by a passing train. The suit
was brought by the surviving wife
against the liquor dealer to recover
damages for injury to her means of
support by,reason of the death of her
husband. At the hapds of a jury
she received a verdict for $2,000 ; a
decision which was promptly con
firmed by the Supreme Court, with
the assurance that it could avail the
liquor dealer Emory nothing to show
that other persons had sold part, or
even most, of the liquor which con-
tributed to the - intoxication of Addis.
"We believe such decisions will
promote the cause of ;temperance in
Minois more effectually than all the
effervescent fanaticism of her late
crusaders."
PRETTY ROUGH TIDIES
Under the above caritici the San
Francisco Ecentny?lean relates
the following interesting incidents.
As one of the prominent actors in
the scenes is a Bradford. county man,
we copy-the article, believing it will
be read with interest by the many
friends of Capt. Hcasr at least :
"Some three monthsngo a couple
of gentlemen who are closely identi
fied with mineral interests of the
coast, and whose traveling experi
ence tan by no means be termed lim
ited, Were called to Sonora on busi
ness requiring their presence for a
few days only, and proceeded thither
by the route via Mazatlan, taking
passage on the Pacific Mail Stearn
ship Arizona. The steamers of this
company were then touching at Ma
zatlan with comparative regularity,
and, there were no signs of any pro
jected change of the programme in
this respect. Oar heroes had ar
ranged the ,details of the expedition
prior to leaving pleasant homes in
San Francisco, and had taken every
precaution against difficulties likely
to be encountered frdm first to last.
The sail on the steamer, and the trip
t 6 Sonora from Mazatlan, passed off
according to anticipation, and were
devoid of startling or disagreeable in
cidents..; But trouble, was simmer
ing and only lacked time to bubble
furiously. Upon returnine- n to Ma ; ._-
zatlan the news of the withdrawal of
the Pacific Mail steamers from that
port way first heard
_by the gentle:
een from San Francisco, who had
not dispatched their business with
unusual haste; and, in a truly Chris
tian sphit of kind consolation, they
were informed by the residents of the
port that had they arrived from the
interior two days sooner they could
have taken passage on the steamer
Co,-!o R ,, '2, which strayed in there.
After a thorough canvass of the Mtn
ation, and on learning that no steam
er was likely to touch the port within
a remarkable period, the Sari Fran
ciscans took passage: on a man-of
war, for Cape St. Lucas, a locality
whose features as a Summer resi
dence differ materially from those of
Mazatlan, where the predatory flea
attains a tropical growth and other
insects are both vicious and vora
cious, and at the Cape they remained
for sixteen days. Time was disposed
of with such precision that scarcely
an hoer of the day elapsed that was
not noticed. Such was the serenity
of the ; spot. The , belated travelers
varied the monotony of lying upon
the ground and gazing into the cer
ulian vault by swinging signals to
the P. M. S. Co.'s steamers passing
the coast from time to. time, a prac
tice pursued in vain and simply pro
ductive of galling aggravation. Final
ly, the Colorado Steamship Compa
ny's steamer Montana I.(Montanela atf
the Mexicans call her. in contradis
tinction to the .Pacirie Mail Steam
ship Company's steamer Montana)
came along through the gulf with
about 100 passengers from Arizona,
including twenty desperate scoun
drels who had been tried by the mil
itary for offences in the Territory and
sentenced to confinement in the pris
on at Aleditraz for terms varying from
two to ten years. The little - steamer
is not arranged for the aceonitaoda
iion of over thirty cabin - papriungers,
and, 'of course, was in a crowded con
dition, in every sense of the word.
And, as if this were , not sufficient
wewand tear upon the patience of a
manYthe soldier convicts became ob
streperous. While the Steamer was at
Mazatlan, after leaving the Cape, the
prisoners surreptitiously secured two
bottles of inferior whisky, through
the connivance of the guards, and
some were geverned , by a spirit of in
dependence that disdained to brook
restraint.. Hitherto these sons of
Mars ' had: appeaied peaceably dis
posed and anxious to ,be. considered
men under a cloud of? misfortune,
rather than desperadoes, and the of
ficer in charge, Captain Hurst, was
little prepared to find among them
such a tendency to bOisterousness as
was eventually displayed. One of
.the seamen of the vessel apprised
Captain Hurst that the four privates
detailed to stand guard over the
prisoners bad assumed a position less
tiresome, having been temporarily
relieved by the prisoners themselves:
The officer battened forward - to_ his
charge, and was greeted with an
irruption of hilarity he little relished.,
The prisoners had kicked off ball and
