EDITORIAL NOTES.
The Ways aud Mean Committee, it
is said, will report ts its verdict on the
Bubsidy itiTestiation, a reeonicndation
that Sehutiisker le expelled Irnui his
pent in Congresi and that Kinic he
prosecuted for perjury. All present
Congressmen will ho csoueiatad, with
the exception of Sohutuuker as noted.
The reinipositiun of the Idcoiiio tux
will ho a most unpopular, measure. The
lict that it will uceesitato the re-creation
of an army of offi'jo "holders,; who
will consumo most ot ita ireccipta, will
Dot recommend it to tho people, .aud ita
iquuitorial ch-irirjt.erjmtkai it oli.ius
to Arnoricans. A good stiff tariff is
the beat fVrin of tuxstion.
Wells, Fargo ifc forgive the pro
duction of bullion lor 1874 on the
"Pacific (dope" at 871,400,000, ol
wLich 826,330,000 is gold, and tho rest
tilver. Cullornia produced about 81
000,000 of gold, and Montana $2,500,

x ue senatorial contest iu nest V ir-
giuia has liaally been sealed by tho el
ection of Alleu F. Capertotya Democrat
of whom few people ever heard until
the legislature bcao. to vote for him
One of tho singular features of the eena
tonal elections this winter lias been the
great tiuuibcr of comparatively unknown
men that have been ihoscn to the sen
u'e. Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri
M'est Yirgiuia, Florida and Nebraska
have ehesen such.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
appreciates veiy clearly tho importance
of the Centennial. Col. Sott icceutly
informed a reporter tiiat a capacious ue
jiot, and a fine hotel would be built by
the company near che grounds, and larg
aud powerful locomotives arc being built
to convey trains with great rapidity be
tween Philadelphia and New York
ri'i 1 t
i uis great rouu, uud-jr its present
management, is
cauy lur every creat
demand upon it.
fcceietary Urittow quietly informs
Congress that if it aJjouins before pro
vidiug buiHaient funds to meet th? gov
ernment defiet, he will use what money
he has (1) to p:y the interest on the
Mibiie debt: (2lto nruvidi' i
ing fund; (jj) to pay the pensions to
soldiers and tailors. Then, after attend
ing to other matters, if there is an) thing
left for the salaries of Congressmen, u!i
right. If not, all right. The probabil
iiy is that Congress will look out for
that deficit.
A bi;j '-railroad war" is now bein
waged between the Pennsylvania Cen
tral aud the Baltimore and Ohio. The
roads are now selling tickets lioru Ney
York to Chicago for $15,25: Cincinnati,
17,25; St. Louis, S21,25; Louisville
18,25. Between Chicago aud Balti
more and Washington the fare has been
reduce i from ifl'J to 10; bttwecu St
Louis and Baltimore aud Washington
irom ?23 tc $15 between Louisville
nud JJultimore and Wellington, from
820 to 812; between Pittsburg aud
Laltmiore and Washington, from 88,50
to 80.
The I'UUburg Telujraph, noticiug
the execution of Oitwein's execution, in
Pittsburgh, on the 23d ult., heads the
article. Lease surenderedl Ortweiu's
Tenameut tf Clay Vacant! The soul of
the Former Occupant Gone to Its Crea
tor. Without doubt the murder of the
llamnett family, by Ernest Oitwein, on
the 30th oi April last, was one of the
most unprovoked aud cold-blooded
deeds that the annals of crime contain.
And although tho muj.bfy of the law
lias been vindicated, the strangling of
one person lor tho murder of five is not
enaugh.
The rare spectacle of pronouncing
the death sentence upon a juvenile mur
derer was witnessed in the Supremo
Court in Boston, on the 20th ult,
The unfortunate offender was Jc&see
Pouieroy, the boy Scud, who was re cent
iy convicted of the murder of a little
boy named Millan, and who lias als0
confessed to tuo murdering and the
eruely butchciiug of a littlo girl named
Kattie Cuirtn. lie is ulso the same
youthful fiend who tortured no many
children to toe suburbs ot Jioston a year
or two since, aocouuts oi which were
published at the time, The boy w-s
brought into the court and Judge Gray,
with tears in his eyes, pronounced the
bentence of death upon him. lie pre
sented tint calui stolid, indifference that
characterized his appearance duriDg the
trial, not moving a muscle, nor seeming
to cure for the terrible lute which awaited
him. After the sentence he was .re
moved to the jail where he will remain
uutil the warrant ot Gov. Gaston is is
bued. Efforts for a pardon will probably
be made but it is doubtful if it will be
granted. j

L VAN I A. Your attention ia specially
iuvited to the fact that the National Banks
are now prepared to receive subscriptions
to the Capital Stock ot the Centennial
