THE FINANCE BILL PASSED.
The Senate Finance lill was passed
in the House at Washington yesterday
by an almost strictly party vole, there
not being a Democratic vote recorded in
its favor! It would appear that the De
mocracy fancied the ltcpubHcsns were
stealing their political thunder in pre
paring the way out of our financial
difficulties, and so far as was in their
power they have hinderfd and en
deavored to prevent the passage of any
financial measure. While a majority
of the State delegations in the House
voted against the Senate bill yesterday,
it was supported by a majority o' the
, delegations frem New England, New
York, New Jersey, I'cnusylvaniai
South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi,
Indiana, Illinois, Michigtn, Wisconsin,
California and Kansas. The Pennsyl
vania delegation voted as follows.'
l'eas Messrs. 1 O'Neil, Myers,
Haruier, Uiery, Smith, Kiiliuger, Shoe
maker Strawbridge, Packer, Cessna,
Curtis, llichmoud, Taylor, Negley,
Thompson, Moor, Todd and Scofiehl.
Nays Messrs. Randall, Kelley,
Towuseud, Clyuier, Storm and Ma;:eo.
Messrs. Spear, Albright and Tloss
were absent.
The bill now goes to the President
for his approval, which it will recaive
as it in main, conforms with the recom,
tsemdatioas of his late message. The
main features of the bill are reproduced
for the benefit of those of our readers
who may not be acqaain'.cd with them:
First Free banking, to be open to
all individuals and associations without
limitation of capital.
Second The retiring of an amount
of greenbacks equal to eighty per cent,
of the amount of new national notes
issued until the greenback circulation
shall bo reduced to ?300,C00.000, after
which no furthet reduction of green
backs is to take place, (It is claimed
that by this provision there will be
neither expansion nor contraction of
the currency, as about twenty per cent,
is now required as bank reserves.)
Third The withdrawal aud destruct
ion of fractional currency aud the sub
stituien of silver coin, the arrangemtut
to go into effect as soon as practicable,
under direction of the Secretary of the
Treasury, who is authorized to use sur
plus money for supplying silver coin,
and if tbis is not sufficient, to sell the
requisite amount of bends of the tew
series to obtain funds for that purpose.
Fourth The removing of the cost
for the coinage of gold at the several
mints
Fifth The resumption of specie pay
ments to commence on the first day of
January, 1879, The Secretary is
authorized to use the surplus specie in
the Treasury, but, if that is not suffi
cient, to sell bonds in order to obtain
gold to pay Treasury notes. But this
last provision does not like the others,
go into immediate effect. The Legal
Tender act remains undisturbed. 1 ills

Jacob Weise, the first male child
born in Thillipsburg, died suddenly at
his residence in Morris township Clear
field County, on Thursday the 17th ull.
He was born on the 13th of August,
1800 in the first building erected
in Phillipsburg.
The body of an unknown old man,
supposed to be that of a drover was
found in a field in the towa of She.
hesequin, Bradford county, on Monday
under circumstances that leave no doubt
that he was murdered. The murdered
man was about seventy years old. .
We are under obligations to Will. F.
Richards, C. W. Barrett and Irve Cum
mings of the Democrat office, and also
to Wm. Walker, for their assistance in
getting out tho Advocate last week
which assistance was necessitated by
the smashing of our little finger while
aioving our office.
We have had quite a run of sleigh
ing for a few days. The Dickinson
Bro. are improving their time by put

This is the first real sleighiug of the
season, and is no doubt fully enjoyed
by our business men, as it has a ten
dency to enliven trade.
The weather last Saturday, Sunday
and Monday, was the coldest of the sea
son. The thermometer standing some
of tho time as low as eighteen de
grees below zero. Oue of our citizens,
speaking of the cold, said that on Satur
day night, it was down to Emporium,
but on Sunday morning it had gone
dowu to Pvkcr's Landing.
Daniel Ecui,l has been sworn in as
sheriff of Elk Owunty, vice D. C.
Oyster, whose term expired January
1st. Iu this connection we will add,
without any disparagement to other ex
sheriffs, that D. C. Oyster has the
credit, and justly earned too, of having
been the most efficient sheriff that Elk
county has ever hud. In all the busi
ness of the office he has ever been
found faithful, and leaves the office
with the good wishes of all persons fol
lowing him.

Wi would advise our lilliputian friend

tion, os it contains tho essence of a
largo amount of legal verbiage.

"for value received,"
Contiac's made on Sundiy cnanot be
enforced.
A note made by a miner is ' void.
A contract made with a minor is also
void.
A contract made with a lunatic is
void.
A note ebtaiued by fraud or from a
person in a state ol intoxication, cannot
be collected.
If a note is lost or stolen it does not
release tho maker; he must ply it it tbc
consideration fur which it was given aud
the amount can bo proven.
An indorser of a note is exempt from
liability if not served with notice of
dishonor within twenty-lour hours of its
nonpayment.
Notes bear interest only when it is so
stetcd.
Principals arc responsible for the acts
of (hair agents.
E ich individual in partnership is re
sponsible for the whulo amounts ol the
debts of the firm.

It is a fraud to couceal fraul.
The iaw compels no ons to do im

A receipt for money is not always

The acts of one partner bind all the
rest.
Cincinnati, Jan. G. Joseph Zsnonc,
a confectioner doing business on Filth
street in this city, was yesterday
swindled out of nearly $7,000 by two
men who said they wished to dispose ol
a number of 100 bank notes, oiieiion
$100 on tho 1,000 lor the exchange.
When Zauonc produced bis money it.
was found that the other men did not
have a sufficient number of $100 notes
with them, and it was agreed that the
sum they h-ad in their possession and
Zauonc-'s money should be placed to
gether in a trunk in tho coofectiouery,
the key being held by one of the swind
lers, while the three men went to Iu
dianapoiis, where the confederates pre
tended that they bad a business estab
lishment, to get more notes. Shortly
after leaving the confectionery oue ol
tbc swindlers excused himself, returned
slyly to the confectionery, took thr
money from the trunk, and rejoined his
companions. Then all of them went to
Indianapolis, where Zauoae lost track
