which you ought to have done In the way of
ridding your premises of all uncleanness ? Are
you prepared to go into your cellar and stare
every old barrel and box and heap of stuff right
square in the face and say you are ready for hot
weather ? Are your stahles and back yard end
outhouses all In good shape—all the odds and
ends of a winter's gathering all raked and
scraped up and carted away or burned 1 Are
you in a shape
, to have your neighbors come
and poke around to see "what smells so 'tarsal
queer round here lately ?" Can you put your
hand on your watch pocket and say "I'm r2ady
for old Sniffemnp to come and visit me ?" If
you can't do this there's a good chanceofor a
maleria factory to start business about the 15th
of May, in very close proximity to your place
and it you'd rather pay the doctor than the

April 22, 1875. Luca.
On Wednesday last, as Mr. Joseph Millard,of
New Boston, Schuylkill county, was digging to
a cellar for the purpose of making it deeper be
unearthed a tin box which he put on his shovel
and threw out with the earth be was digging.—
The box lay about for over two hours when a
man coming along_ stepped in with his heel
and burst it, and a round piece of something
fell nut of it which he carefully picked up and
put in his pocket. Another party then opened
the box, and on the top found a piece of cloth
with a number of buttons on it ; underneath
that a piece of patch-work, and beneath it a
number of ronnd pieces of metal resembling
coin but covered with a green mould. Think
ing these things of little or no value they were
pitched about among the boys for some time.—
At last, on the mould being cleaned off they
were ascertained to be gold coin of the denom
ination of twenties, tens and fives. It is com
puted that the box contained between sBooand
.400,and it has been pretty well divided among
the people of the village. How it came there,
no one knows, but it is surmised that it bad
been buried there by a woman of the name of
Clark who died in the house some years ago,
as when she lay on her death bed she made at
tempts to tall something, but on account of
weakness she could not, and pointed down to
the cellar, but those present could not under
stand what she meant
Behind the Times.
The Harrisburg Patriot speaks of the latest
novelty on the streets of that city as being an
Irish jaunting car.. We are surpnsed that the
capitol of this great Commonwealth is so far
behind the "city" of Montrose. It will be re
membered that Mr. Mclnerny of Choconut, had
a very fine genuine Irish jaunting car at our
County Fair some two or three years ago. and
gays 128 all a ride. But perhaps it is not strange
that Ilarrisburg should be so far behind the
times for it is a little too tar from Susquehanna
County to be posted in these things. It says :
"The vehicle in question was . built in Ireland
and was ordered by J. D. Cameron,esq. It re
sembles (to use our own idea) a dray iiron
springs saritb We caceprinn that it is symmetri
cally built and elegantly cushioned. The seats
run parallel with the houses and accommodate
three adults on each aide, besides the driver
who sits facing the horse. The vehicle was
brought to Harrisburg a considerable time since
and was stored away - in one of the warehouses
till the approach of spring. When the car was
unpacked at the warehouse some of the sons of
Erin actually carried off theharts mementoes
while others abed tears when they viewed this
reminder of happy hours in old Ireland.

A Desperate Prisoner. ,
One of the most desperate prisoners to the
Eastern Penitentiary, is a man by the name of
Judson Woolcott, from Luzern° county,Who is
now serving out his second term in that insti
tution, under a sentence of 12 years and 9
month; for burglary, assault and battery, with
intent to kill, committed at White Haven. He
has now served seven years of his present sen
tence. On this his second visit to the peniten
tiary, he made special efforts to be insubordi
nate and violative of all the rules of the insti
tution, insolent to the wardens and keepers,and
to any visitor who, even by chance, might go
near his cell. He has kept on that course ever
since, and is now as troublesome as ever. As
he always openly boasted that the Eastern Pen
itentiary could not hold tiim, extra watch has
been kept over him. He seems particularly
averse to mtutsters of the Gospel of every de
nomination, and delights tt an opportunity to
insult them. He gets Incensed most at mem
bers of the Society of Friends, and calls the in
stitution a "Quaker Prison."
Woolcott's companion In crime escaped from
the Luzerne county prison, and is still at large
in some part of Europe.

The New Revenue Lam
Bank officers complain of having to be con•
tinually explaining to business men the opera-
tion of the new revenue law which went into
effect in February. For the purpose, therefore,
of giving general information, we will pub
fish the following, as ruled by the internal
revenue office :
That notes payable at a bank, given in lien
Of Checks for the purpose of evading the stamp
tax upon checks, are "vouchers" without the
meaning of that word as used in the statute,
and require a two-cent stamp. This applies to
notes, drafts, etc., made, drawn, or accepted to
February 8, 1875, when paid by the bank on
and after that date.
This tex applies to "checks drawn by a bank
upon itself, for the purpose of paying. its own
divides-Is, and the dividends, coupons, or inter
est of other corporations," or for other par
manta.
Checks drawn by state, county, or city offi
cers in their official capacity, upon public funds
deposited in a bank, are exempt, if said funds
are kept separate from any private axottnts, it
not being within the intent of the law to tax a
public treasury.
Orders for dividends are subject to the tax, it
drawn for a definite and certain sum, but not
otherwise. An ordinary -certificate of deposit,
used in the ordinal' , manner, is not liable.
Interest coupons are exempt. Bills of ex
change, foreign as well as inland, when drawn
upon a bank, banker, or trust company, are
held to be.subject to the tax, whether payable
at sight or otherwise.
Duplicates of bills, orders. etc.,are liable to
the same as originals. Receipts not relating to
the banking business, for instance, as nab!, are
exempt.
The Water Shed of Sullivan County.
Interposed between the two main streams of
the Susquehanna river above its billarcation at
Northumberland, the county of Sullivan is one
of the most remarkable sections of Eastern
Pennsylvania. It is in toot an elevated plat
eau, its highest parts 2,500 feet above the leyel
of the sea, discharging from three or Its sides
considerable streams of water to the two divis
ions of the Susquehanna above mentioned. Of
the latter there are two on the west, two on the
south, and two on the east, each of which orig
inating on a high level and gradually making
deep cuts for itself toward the edge of the plat
eau, eventually emerge from their mountain
gorges Into the river valley beyond. In this
way the West Branch receives the Loyalsock
and iffnm.7 creeks, and the North Branch Fish
ing creek; whh its main territory,and Bowman
and Mehuopanrcreeks. Strong streams are all
these, which if found in . Europe would be de
nominated rivers, and the topography of each
in its upper and middia /anuses would well re
ward; attention. The - dense forests of the
mountain plateau are cc:apposed of beech, ma
ple, hire!! ; and hemlock, but a saran part of
which hsie ; been - yet removed; ind It may be
assured they, have a considerable effect up•
on the climav aid 'rain fall of the general sec
tion of the State in. *inch they are found.—
'Only' Of lite lave the geological features and
mineral resources of Sullivan county andergane
invailigallini, tut from , what
.slready appears
it la evident: that the county Is not the desert
region,Which upon imperfect information many
persons formerly supposed it to be. It has been
assumedthat when the forests were swept off.-
there would be left only a broken surface poor
ly adapted to the UurpOses of agriculture and
beneath to the , profoundest 'depths only sterile
and worthless rocks. But a limited basin of
coal intermediate, between bituminous and an
- thralls has been found and develop:si at Birch
ereek,and recent borings south of that locality
indicate more extensive tommtiOne of the same
Material, distinct proof has, also been obtained '
of yellow ochre in a valuable deposit in the
neighborhood of Gazioga • Lake, extending
northward for several miles, and iron ores also
have been detected at several points.
The whOle_ section is rich in timber and,the
surface is admirably adapted to grazing pnrpos•
es and to the production of root crops, grasses
and summer grain.
Sullivan is dotted by about a dozen interest
ing lairs, which we have no doubt will lurtish
favorite points for summer resort in future
times. Towards the east Mehoopany and Bow
man's creek each originate in one of these
while the outlet flow of, the others are contri
butions to tributaries of Fishing creek on the
south. The two west ponds are located near
the centre of the county, while those two beau=
tiftil bodies of water known as Lewis and Hun
ter's Lakes are found upon the western bor
der.
The enterprise and energy of two men have
been conspicuous in recent years in calling at
tention to Sullivan county, connected as they
have been with improvements within it, with
the investment of foreign capital in the devel
opment of its resources, and with railroad en
terprises for the transportation of its produc
tions to market, and they. will deserve bonom.

The Lizensa Question
Upon hearing the arguments of counsel upon
the subject of license on Friday last Judge
Streeter said : That in counties where the
people had voted against License, the Courts
had no jurisdiction, nor had the Clerk any au
thority to file and advertise petitions until the
Repealing act was fully consummated. Conse
quently all that had been done in that regard
was null and void, and no Licenses for selling
intoxicating liquor in this county could be
granted till August Court.
There is something about this Republican-
Senatorial Liconse Law that seems to adapt it
self both to the "conscientious scruples" of the
eminent Prohibition Senators who originated it
and also of the courts who are called upon to
administer it. Judge Ingham the Radical, tem-
Deranea of t,.111 • dau
trict holds a court in June to grant licenses in
a "Local Option" district. Judge Morrow a
Republican Judge of Bradford county (another
Local Option district) renders no excuse, but at
once proceeds to grant licenses. Now it seems
that this "Senatorial-Prohibition-Stringent-Li
cense-Law" is very much like the animal we
once heard of which was taken around for a
show and when the showman was asked what
he had, said, "if you want to see a pig it's a pig
but if you want to see a puppy It's a puppy
Now there are those who say that politics bad
something to do with it in this county, but all
who know of the fixed and settled prohibition
principles of Judge Streeter ana his utter disre
gard for personal agrandizemeat, will at once
contradict this imputation and will be able to
stoutly maintain that he has no asperations for
a "second term" even, but that his motives in
refusing license was based entirely .upon the
strict legal construction which he and Judge
Elwell put upon the wording of the act.
Warn READ
Coal Trade-
The present disturbances in the anthracite
coal regions of Pentrsylvania are fraught with
much that is beyond the mere issue of wages,
and will be apt to start the question whether
the country is most benefited by private or cor
purated companies. Thirty years ago, before
we bad the Vast railroad facilities which now
gridiron all parte of the state and country, the
price of coal was two-thirds less than it is now,
with labor then certainly not more than one
half less. in 1856 coal which now brings $7
per , Mu atthe yards was sold for $2,75, or at
most $3 per ton in the interior towns of the
state, and at $4 and $5 in Philadelphia_ These
are flames given from the memory of house
keepers A hen coat was carried to market by
horse power, before we had the railroads to take
it there, its cheapness then world seem to imply
that it is of more benefit to depend on horse
flesh than on seam to transport the article. To
be sure, railroad enterprise has vastly stimula
ted the consumption of coal, but the source of
supply is so great, and the means of mining it
an extensive, that at least for a century there
can be no such exhaustion in its deposit as now
threatens England. When the retail sale of
coal was confined to private enterprise, instead
of being conducted by corporated combinations
there was always a fluctuution in its mice, the
figures generally being kept within reasonable
bounds, and the supply steady. The steadineia
of this supply was due to the tact that indi
vidual operators owned or leased the mines, so
that in the produCtion of-coal there was com
petition at every drift, as well as in all the re
tail yards. • It a dealer in coal selling et retail
found that belies not receiving es good an er
tical of coal as he desired for his customers, he
had a hundred winos where to remedy him
self, and could command accomodations in all
directions. Now there are few choices is the
market, one vast organization , having covered
the antbraeite region. There has been serious
trouble in the mining reginee ever since the
railroad combination WhlCli pow,rnle there Were
attained.. We desire to be impartial in the ea
pre:idiot facts, ant we' think 'the business
community has not failed to record the truth.of
what we / record,

Impaired Fruits.
Very few persons have no accurate notion of
the amount of green fruit Imported annually in
to the United States. ACcording to an of
report in the N. F. Evening But, during the
last three months, the importations amounted
In value to $841,600 upon which the custom
duties were $154,137 10. Among the commod
ities which make up this total there were more
than one hundred million of oranges received
at New York alone, or two and a half to every
man, woman, and child in the United States,
not to speak of one thousand barrels of oranges
received from the Southern States, and more
than two hundred thousand boxes and cases of
oranges received trom foreign countries at va
rious other ports of the United States. More
than twenty-tour millions of lemons were also
entered at that port during the same time, or
more than one to every Inhabitant of the Unit
ed States, beside sixty-five thousand boxes of
lemons at other ports. One million seven hun
dred and eighty thousand cocoanuts have been
brought there during the last three months ;
and dining the same time three hundred and
twenty-five thousand bunches of bananas have
been Imported there, or, reckoning only twelve
bananas to the bunch, three million nine hun

The Extension ot, Char Railway.
'1 he question of the extension of the Mont
rose Railway to some point east of Montrose is
again the subject of agitation and we are glad
to learn that our Susquehanna Depot neighbors
intend to take measures at once to know the
exact grades and conditions between Montrose
and that place. We have always been of the
opinion and also have advocated it through the
DEMOCRAT, that our Railway, when extended,
should be made to develop the resnorces of Sus
quehanna county and that every person own
ing property or dbing business within the coun
ty is deeply idterested in such development,
whether it be done in his immediate vicinity or
not. Anything that builds up Susquehanna
Depot, Great Bend, New Milford Montrose or
any other town in the county, benefits the
whole people of the county by adding value to
all real estate„lessening taxation, increasing the
demand for firm produce and mechanical labor
and it is the height of folly for any section or
class of inhabitants to be warring with anoth
er and allow any public improvement or valua
ble enterprise to be diverted from producing the
most beneficial results within our own county
limits. We live in Montrose but the DEMOCRAT
has always been as ready to do battle for the
interest of any other town or section as for
this: It Is the "curbstone brokers" alone, who
are acting like a sponge in Montrose and who
are lying about, Indolent and indifferent to so
eqthing but self and attempting to absorb ev
erything of value that comes in contact with
them, to the detriment of both the town and
county, and we believe that the DEMOCRAT has
done as much towards *queering this out of them
as any one in or out of Montrose. Their unhal
lowed work has had a tendency to bring down
a curse upon Montrose from the other sec
tions of the county who have suffered by their
Infernal deeds and to have revenge, it has beep
considered the surest course by those who have
felt their sting,to tear down the pillars of pros
perity in Montrose and let the whole structure
fall upon their heads not thinking that by so
doing they would create a certain deadfall for
themselves. These shylocks would be the bet
ter pleased, if all taxation for improvement in
Montrose or in the county was at once stopped
so that they could the more securely tighten
their purse strings over their 11l gotten gold.—
Inste•td of attempting to have revenge by tear
ing down Montrose and thus injuring all in the
county, let us encourage legitimate business by
building it op and thus drive out the "money
changers from the temple." -
So long as Susquehanna county remains as It
Is, Montrose will b e the county seat and the ev
ils and corruption which has been engendered
by sectional and partissn strife must be correc
ted In some other way than by a suicidal course
to the best interests of beery inhabitant of the
county.
We have never interposed any objection to
the people of the eastern part of this county
setting up for, themselves in a new county If
'they so desired and could do It fairly and open
ly by the "consent of the zovernedP Neither
would we do so if the, people of the West
altould.tilik the same, tor,under existing circum •
stances, there is no patent in the matter to be
of any section to manly strive for its own in
terest and such action is commendable instead
of being censurable. The "Gardner" style of
low blackguardism to create a feud beteen
sections, which should not exist, is far from
meeting with our approval.
Wouldn't it be much better to use the proper
means to develop the true interests of the coun
ty by Increasing its facilities for travel, and
nmsportation, and thus increase the power of
the other towns in the county to the better Lib
or for their rights and enable them the Boone
infringed noon and we acknowledge the right
to brake up the "rings" and "cliques" that are
fattening upon their substance without lessen
ing the value of their own property? Could they
be a ure of being exempt from similar evils in a
new county ? We believe if the people in the
different sections will put forward the Montrose
Railway to some point in the eastern part of
the county and thus give every facility for tray
el and accommodation to the county seat, it
will cost them less than a now county would
and be far better fur all concerned. Do this,and
also put your f',ot on the "Rings,"as you would
be obliged to do in any county you might be
situated in, and there will be no desire for a
better shire-town than Montrose. Exercise
your rights as independent citizens instead of
obedient servants of the "Court House Ring"
and yourselves, the county, the state and the
nation will be the better for it.
