DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET
JUDGE OF SUPREME COURT,
HON. GEORGE SHARSWOOD,
PHILADELPHIA
The Congressional Vacancy,
The "Loyal Leaguers" are very much
troubled about our next member of Con
gress ; and are busy manufacturing re
ports about candidates on our side. But
Democrats' are not likely to be cheated
by any, radical tricks, and their newspaper
squibs should be disregarded. The ene
my have no hope of electing their candi
date; but would like very much to see
some " no-party" trickster or" loyal Dem
ocrat" receive the Democratic nomina
tion, so as to play the Wilmot and Grow
trick with the district.
The Democracy have only to nominate
a candidate from among their sound men,
and the traders who vainly sought, by
both open and covert means, to defeat
Mr. Denison, will continue to be disap
pointed. '
Give us a sound man, and an able one,
and we will win another real victory in
October.
Iff - The Radical State Convention of
South Carolina, at its recent meeting,
adupted a resolution demanding that the
negrues shall be represented by one of
their black race on the next Presidential
ticket of that party. This is a cold bath
to the Radicals of Pennsylvania, who
were afraid to put even a mild negro-suf
frage resolution in their State platform.
The Secretary of War.
The President has asked E. M. Stanton
to resign ; but he refuses to do so until
Concrress meets.
This calls to mind the debate pending
the passage of the tenure-of-office bill.—
Sherman, of Ohio, then said :
I take it that no case can arise, or is
likely to arise, where a Cabinet Minister
will di-sire to hold on to his office af
ter his chief desires his removal.
I a can scarcely conceive of such a case. I
Oink that ni:ir gentleman, no man with
Any sense of honor, would hold a posi
tion as a cabinet ofr_atiftrial§ ch:111-(141-•
, at 1....7a7.74111111 — mr. part 0 the resi
dent wou'd always secure the resignation
of a Cabinet officer. For this reason I
do not want to jeopard this bill by an un
iinportant and collateral question. * *
Apd if I supposed that - either of these
gentlemen was so wanting in manhood,
in honor, as to hold his place after the po
litest intimation by the President •a the
United States that bis services were no
longer needed, I certainly, as a Senator,
would consent to his removal at any time,
and so would we all."
If Stanton is a gentleman he should
read Sherman's remarks.
District Politics.
We copy from the Montrose Republican
aR hereunder: •
"The Scranton Republican says that the
Democracy of Luzerne are agitating the
nomination of R. B. Little, of Montrose,
for additional law judge of Luzerne Co.,
expecting thereby to quiet all opposition
to the selection of a congressional candi
date from Luzerne. The Republican says:
`Judge Woodward has authorized the
withdrawal of his name from the list of
contestants for congressional nomination.
Jep. Stark' is now considered the 'coming
man.' The faithful in Susquehanna Co.
must remain out in the cold.'"
Judge Woodward is in Europe, and
does not know aught of this matter ; and
tbe whole item is idle gossip.
The Lnzerne Union says:
"Slum. TRICK. —The papers of ' z .the
hlockbelid'• party are circulating a report
that Judge Woodward has declined the
nomination for Congress. Such is not
the ease—whether be will or not, if offer
ed to him, remains to be seen. The
blockheads' are getting wondrous
smart!"
Impeachment Conspiracy!
In the daily papers of Saturday will be
found an official document from the At
torney-General, communicating to the
President the details of a most infamous
and diabolical conspiracy alleged to have
lbeen formed between Charles A. Dunham,
better known as Sanford Conover, and
certain prominent members of Congress,
(Ashley, Butler, & Co.) for the purpose
of manufacturing and procuring testimony
implicating the Executive in the assassi
natjon of Abraham Lincoln. The,charac
ter of this testimony is well calculated to
awaken public attention to the desperate
purposes of the men now leading the
dominant party of the country.
—The State election in Kentucky Mon
day passed off quietly. It resulted in a
Democratic victory.—The majority of the
Democrats is estimated at from 45,000 to
60,000.
Legacy and Succession Taxes.
The appended abstract of the law and
decisions relative to Legacy and Succes
sion taxes covers some of the most im
portant points, and is published as a
matter of public information.
By "Legacy taxes" are meant the taxes
upon personal property, whether the same
be legacies devised by will, or distributive
shares arising from a legal division of
property among heirs-at-law.
"Succession taxes" are those levied up
on real estate, whether belonging to an
estate, or passing_ hg deed of gift, &c.,
during the life of the owner.
LEGACY TAXES
The estates of all persons who died
after July Ist, 1862, are liable to the
legacy tax, provided the whole amount
divided among all the heirs exceeds $lOOO.
But the share of the husband or wife of
the deceased is exempt from this tax;
also the share of a minor child of the
de
ceased is exempt, unless such share ex
ceeds $lOOO, in which ease the excess is
taxable.
Where a sum of money is left in trust,
the annual interest to be paid to one per
son during life, the principal to revert to
another, both the annuity and remainder
are taxable upon their present value.
Executors, administrators, ttc., having
charge of personal property for d/stribu-
Lion, shall give notice of that fact in
writing, to the assessor, or an assistant
assessor, within thirty days; and before
making payment or distribution of such
money or property to heirs, shall make
return thereof, under oath, to the assessor,
and pay the tax. Rate of tax, from 1 to
6 per cent.; the tax to be by the
administrator filom the shares.
In case a voluntary return and payment
of tax be not made, the assessor shall
make an assessment; 'and in case of wilful
neglect or refusal of those having control
of an ,estate to make return and pay the
tax, they shall be liable to a fine of not
exceeding sloo—together with the tax,
costs, &c.
Any one assuming control over the
property of a deceased person, bears all
the responsibility of an administrator.
This tax is a lien upon property for 20
years, unless the same be sooner paid.
SUCCESSION TAXES
The real estate of persons who died
after June 30, 1864, is liable to Succession
tax, without reference to the value of the
same. If real estate be sold, the funds
arising thereetom for distribution, are li
able to Succession tax, and the adminis
trator or trustee , shall give notice, make
returns, and pay the tax, as in case of
Legacy tax, under penalty of 6500, costs,
If,personal property be left in trust to
be invested in real estate, it is liable to
Succession tax, to be paid by the person
having it in charge.
Real estate passing by deed of gift, &c.,
(as from parent to child,) without full
payment for the same, is liable, at once,
I Lands belonging to estates of those
who died after June 30, 1864, are not ex
empt from Succession tax, although a
deed of gift may have been executed prior
to that date, provided the same did not
fully take effect until after that date.
Lands belonging to egtates of those
who died prior to June 30, 1864, but
which were left encumbered, (as with life
interest of a widow,) are subject to Sue
cession tax where encumbrance termi
nated after that date.
Persons liable to Succession tax, shall,
within 30 days front the time of becoming
entitled to possession of the real estate or
the profits thereof, give notice of that fact
to the assessor, make return, and pay the
tax, or be liable to penalty, expenses, &c.
Rate of Succession taxes, from 1 to 6
per cent.; which tax is a first lien upon
the land for five years, unless sooner paid.
Bold Theft.
On Wednesday night of last week,
when the 7 o'clock train from Scranton
arrived at the West Pittston depot, it was
some minutes ahead of time. While the
train stood there d man was seen to get
off and walk deliberately into the hail and
up the front stairs of the Luzerne House;
as he passed in he spoke politely to those
sitting in the hall and on the poro. H e
first opened the door of Mrs. Raynsford's
room, who being in, inquired his business.
He made no answer, but immediately
backed out and passed hastily towards
the stairs, but opening all the room.doors
on his way. Coming at length -to the
room of Mr. Eugene Thayer, stepped in
and helped himself to a suit of good
clothes, worth Some £350, took a news
paper and deliberately laid it down on
the ball floor, wrapped up the clodies,
passed down and out to the train without
exciting the least curiosity from any of
the several persims sitting at the time in
the hall and on the porch. All saw him,
but his actions appeared to he so com
posed that all supposed, until the theft
was discovered, that it was some one get
ting something from the house which be
bad a right to. He went to Wilkes-Barre
on the train nil stopped at the Steele
Hotel, where be stole from Mr. Wm. Con
ner, of Wyoming, a satchel worth $3OO,
and took passage ; on the Lehigh (t. Sus
quehanna and is understood to
have gone to Match Chunk. He is sup
posed to be an ; accomplished city sneak
thief. Look out for him.—Pittston Gaz.
—The Radicals of New Jersey held an
"Impartial Suffrage Convention." at
Treoto4, on the 22d, and committed the
party to that State fully and squarely to
the principle of negro suffrage and equality.
Resolutions approving the execution of
Maximilian, and nominating General
Grant for President, were offered and laid
upon the table. There will be fun in the
pine woods when this question of raising
the negro to an equality with white men
is presented to the people of New Jersey.
Tt) Union Pacific Rail
.Road.
OPEN 425 mILBS.7
A few weeks since we noticed the open
ing of the Union Pacific Railroad to Jules
burg, 377 tomes weet of Omaha, and we
now have to report its completion to Crow
Creek, a point 48. tniles further west,
making a total of 42.5 miles. Fifty miles
of track in addition pre graded ready for
the iron, and there is no doubt of the
completion of the road to the base of the
Rocky Mountains early in the Fall. The
Company are confident that the whole
line to the Pacific will be open for busi
ness in 1870. The Indians have annoyed
the surveying parties and tie-cutters, who
are many hundred miles in advance of the
work; but they have a wholesome fear of
the population that a railroad carries with
it, and all trains run without interruption.
The business of the Company has been
most flattering. The earnings for the
quarter ending August Ist, Iyere about
8700,000; but as the report "for the last
week in July has not been received, the
exaot fraction cannot be given. These
earnings accrued from operating an aver
age of not more than 350 miles of road,
and after deducting operating expenses,
the balance is far in excess of the interest
obligations of the Company on the amount
of bonds they can issue on that distance.
It should be remembered that this result
is from a way business alone, through a
new country, and is not to be compared
with the vast thraugh business that must
follow the opening of the whole line to
the Pacific. The success of the enterprise
seems to be thoroughly assured, and we
can see no reason why the First Mortgage
Bonds are not entitled to rank among the
best securities. The daily sales are now
so large, that the Company already enter
tain the idea of advancing the price.
Drinking Ice Water.
It, is claimed by some physicians that
the universal American habit of drinking
ice-water is a very injurious one as re
gards the ultimate health of the individual.
Pouring so much cold water into the
stomach chills it, and directly leads to
that most horrible of diseases, dyspepsia.
It disturbs the circulation, introduces
heart deseases, and causes other woeful
physical condition. In Europe, light
wines, ales, beers aud, among the temper
ate, sugar water is the drink. There we
find clear complection, robust health,
sound judgment, and good common sense.
In this country the health seems to be the
last thing thought about, and no sense at
all is used upon the snbject.
OP — Mr. Thaddeus Stevens, the leader
of the Radicals in Pennsylvania, seeing
the signs of the times and knowing that
his party's stock is at a heavy discount,
lately gave expression to his tears in the
following language :
I fear that we shall lose Pennsylvania
this next election. I do not think we
have earnestness enough in the State to
Arength, While the Republican portion of
our Legislature has been so openly, noto
riously, and shamefully corrupt, that all
the honest people in the State are dishear
tened and disgusted.
—There would be two hundred and
forty-two members of the House of Repre
sentatives if all the members from all the
States a ere present. Of these only one
hundred members voted to pass the des
potism bill over the veto. As a two
thirds vote, or one hundred and sixty odd
members, are required to reject a veto, it
became more fully apparent what a mis
erable rump now controls .the destinies
of the country.
—Nineteen millions of dollars were
coined at the United States Branch Mint
at San Francisco during the fiscal year
ending Jnne 30.
—Great distress prevails in the country
surrounding Unadilla, N. Y., consequent
on the failure of the Unadilla National
Bank. One woman, a widow, has, it is
said, become insane over her losses, and
another has attempted to commit suicide.
—Col. J. M. Neibling was nominated
Postmaster at Findley, Ohio, by the Presi
dent last week. He was rejected by the'
Senate. He lost an arm at Chickasaw
Mountain. This rejection shows how the
Republicans are paying a "lasting debt of
gratitude" to the soldiers.
—Waldo F. Davie, the late postmaster
at Van Wert, Ohio against whose re
moval the Rump Senate took decided
grounds at its late session, has been com
mitted to prison on a charge of embez
zling money from letters.
—The New York Constitutional Con
vention, which is largely composed of
Radicals, refused to insert a clause in the
Constitution disfranchising deserters.
Did they refuse because it would hit too
many Radical voters.
—The Rump at its extra seesion, re
jected Col. J. M. Neibling, an one-armed
soldier, as postmaster at Findley, Ohio.
More gratitude (1)
—The citizens of West Chester have
bad executed a bust of General Anthony
Wayne, of revolutionary fame, which they
intend placing in the Court-house at that
place.
—The Springfield, Mass., Republican, a
straightly partisan sheet, condemns its
party for their radical measures ana con
fesses, just now, that it is ashamed of the
result in Tennessee and the way the elec
..,
tion was carried.
—Sanford Conover, who was convicted
of perjury before the Judiciary Commit
tee of the Rouse of Reprbsentatives, when
they were investigatin* an alleged com
plicity of Jefferson Davis in the assassina
tion conspiracy, has' been taken to the
Albany Penitentiary, to which be' was
sentenced for ten years.

Letter from Delaware.
Mn, EDITOR:— Great changes have
taken place since I saw you one year ago
last January, and ordered your paper sent
to me at Milford, Del. Rev. 'Willard
Richardson .(formerly School Supt. of Sus
quehanna C 0.,) and myself then located
:At this place, on the Junction and Break
water R. R. A place without a Elaine, and
occupied only by tenants it now has a
name, a H. It station arid a post office,
three new houses, three families, and
plenty of room for more. I have made
over two miles of new road, have two
miles more to build, all of which are at
right angles and parallel with the R. R.,
which here runs east and west. We have
one of' the finest locations to be found, and
are luxuriating on au.. abundance of the
finest of fruit. We 'commenced with
strawberries the 23rd of May, and have
not been without fresh fruit a day since,
such as raspberries, blackberries, whortle
berries, as well as cultivated fruits, cher
ries, curr.ints, &c. Peaches are just now
getting ripe; a few have been sent to
market, and next week a good many will
be shipped. The peach crop will be larve.
One th in (Mr. Yardley of .Milford, Mr.
VanVoorst of Jersey City, and a dealer
N.Y.,) have bought largely. They ex
pect to pay $3OOO freight on what they
have bought. The Del. R. R. Co. esti•
mite the freight on the peaches to pass
over their road this season at $500,000.
The peach crop on one farm near here
is sold (the buyer to pick them,) for $5OOO.
Seven years ago the whole farm (225 acres,.
trees all set,) could have been bought. for
$BOOO. Three years ago the peach crop
sold for $lO,OOO, and two years ago for
$3,000, the buyers clearing $2,200; last
year no crop. Land he' is badly used
from constant cropping with corn, (not
slAve labor, as many assert). The R. R.,
which has been built to Milford 7 years,
and is now being extended to Lewis, will
cause the country to improve faster than
all the emancipation proclamations that
ever emanated from the Republican party.
Peaches, pears, grapes, and all the small
fruits can be profitably raised here./ Our
first strawberries sold iu N. Y. at 430 cts.
per quart; our late ones at 20 cts. The
earliest from Jersey brought only about
30 cts. Wheat does well here. Mr. Yard
ley (from a farm which 7 years ago did
not produce 5 bhls. of corn per acre,) has
harvested and sold $lOOO worth, and has
plenty for seed and family use for a year
to come. To you and all my old Susque
hanna friends I would say, leave your
rocks and hills and come down and see
our fertile fields, where neither rocks nor
hills impede the plow, and we will shake
down the peaches and roll in the melons
till you are satisfied. Yours ever,
DAVID SCOTT.

Have we the precious metal in sufficient

I am satisfied that in times of great

AN EX CRAORDINARY CONFESSION.-A
late number of the Springfield Republican,
(Radical) contains the following extraor
dinary confession:
"Discussion of principles in connection
with Southern reconstruction is now of
little account. We are trying a bold ex
perinieut, outside of Conbtltutional pre
scriptions and accredited theories of gov
ernment, which success alone must justify;
but Congressmen very naturally seek for
some theoretical defense of their action,
and quite as naturally disagree widely. ad
to what that theory may be."
—The Radicals of the New York con
stitutional convention are afraid to submit
the negro suffrage question to the people
by itself, but, insisted on incorporating it
with the entire new constitution, hoping
that, by thus enveloping the disgusting
pill in a large
amount of sugar, they may
be able to i nduce the people to swallow it.
