THURSDAY, JDLY 8, 1875,
Centennial Notes.
Seven million six hundred thousand
dollars will ho required for the Centen
nial buildings, Of this sum the money
ha9 thus far come In the following di-
OOO'ttlKylvania, 1,000,000;
city of Philadelphia, ' $1,575,000.
Coupled with this about $2,000,000
has been raised by the sale of stock,
private subscriptions, sale of medals,
&o., the later artioles being disposed of
in immense numborsaud yielding quite
a largo revenue. Ono million five
hundred thousand dollars will bo re
quired by the first of next January to
carry out the plans of tho Board of
FiuaDce, and there seems no doubt but
that it will be forthcoming. Taking
the general characteristics of tho people
of this country as a basis, and incor
porating the ono faot of their desire to
see and be seen, it is believed that the
stockholders in the exhibition are bouud
to realize a profit by their investment.
It is estimated that the number of tick
ets which will be sold will reach about
7,000,000. if that is not exceeded.
Then, after tho exhibition closes, the
sale of the buildings will net about half
a million; nil will be disposed of except
tti6 Memorial and Horticultural Halls.
The Temperauco party have nomina
ted a ticket, which will surely take
some votes from the Republican party.
Mr. Urowo, the candidate for Governor,
is a gentlemau of good character, and
he has seen some publio life. Mr. Pen.
nypacker, who was nominated for State
Treasurer, 13 a Chester County Friend.
We have no patienoe with the temper
ance politicians. Men who will en
deavor to promote any reform by put
ting or helping to put tho Democratic
party in power, must be very short
sighted. Tho only thing possible for
151ack and his friends to do this year is
to take a few votes from Gov. llartranft.

The business classes of the country are
constantly demanding inoro money or
der post offices, for the transmission of
small sums from one location to another
It is cheap and sure means of transact
ing this portion of mercantile business,
and henco its increasing popularity.
On Thursday July 1, two hund
red and ninety-nine additional money
officers were put in operation in the
Uuited States Of these thirty-two will
be in Illinois, seven in Kentucky,
thirty-eight in Iowa, nine in, Kansas,
one in Arkansas, and eight iu Missouri.
The remainder will be located in
various States. There will also be
named at the same time twenty-three
offices, through which money orders may
be forwarded to or received from Great
Britain, twenty-one to do business with
Germany, and five with Switzerland.
Since the adoption of the money order
system only nine offices have been dis
continued. The New York Times has analyzed
the figures of tho report of the bureau
of statistics for April, and fiuds tha
there has been a considerable falling off
of both imports and exports for the las
ten months as compared with the cor
responding period of the fiscal year
1S7-4. The latter period included July
August and September, before tho
panic. Some of tho items of difference
are curious as well as instructive. We
have taken 83,000,000 worth less coffee
and $1,100,000 more of tea. In hides
and skins we have increased both our
imports, just doubling the latter. In
raw silk (here has been a slight increase
and a corresponding one iu silk manu
factures imported. Tho importation 0
metels has largely diminished of iron
" 1 .1 - . r .1 cio
500,000 or nearly forty-five per cent
The exports of these articles, on the
other hand, have increased fully thirty-
three per cent , and now equal seven
eighths the imports.. Curiously enough,
the importation of precious stones has
increased by Dearly two-thirds. Wool
and its manufactures also show a slight
increase. In exparts tha most notable
items of decrease are in breadstuffs,
cotton, oil and lobacco, and the most
remarkable instance of increase is of
course, gold,
Col. Harry lloyt, Wilkesbarre, has
been appointed Chairman of the Repub
lican State Central Committee. He is
very well versed in State politics and
has had a great deal of experience in
managing campaigns in Luzerne county,
which is large enough for a small State.
Col. lloyt will make a vigorous canvass,
and we believe, one the Democrats will
have cause to remember. Coa

GEN33AL NOTES.
In epito of the confidence expressed
by Gen. Spinner and other officials of
the Treasurer, no trace has been dis
covered of the $47,500 rooently stolen
in broad daylight, during business
hours, and with, six clerks present, from
the cashier's room of the Treasury of

Under the ruins of the old castlo of
King Dagobert the Abbe Denis found
a hen's nest full of eggs. They had
beeu there 1,200 years hidden from the
li;ht and the air and the changes of
temperaturo, and the hen herself had,
perhaps, barely escaped when the fall
ing walls sealed her eggs hermetically
tor luture times. Abbe Denis put
tnreo eggs under a hen and they were
hatched.
Jersey Cicy, June 24. Early this
morning a herd of sixteen short horn
cattle, comprising the finest animals in
America, aud probably in the world,
which cost one hundred and twenty-
five thousand dolUrs, were shipped on
the steamship Holland tor England
They were purchased for G. W. Fox,
J'iUi-opean partner of A. T. Stewart, for
his country seat in Staffordshire. One
bull cost thirty thousand aud one heifer
eighteen thousand dollars.
Washington, June 26 The Post
master General has issued the following
order: It is hereby ordered that the
fee for registering a letter nniled at
auy post office within the United States,
or to a loreign country, be fixed on and
after July 1, 1875, at the uniform rate
of 10 oeots, in addition to the regular
postage, to be fully prepaid by postage
stamps affixed to such letter, and can

Washington, June 20 The follow-
ing dispatch was received at the Indian
Bureau this morning from Indian In
spector Daniels from the Red Cloud
agency; June 24 Hon. E. P. Smith
Red Cloud aud Spotted Tail Indians
have signed the agreement to relinquish
their right in iNebraska. 1 hey want

Washington, Juno 24. The Indian
Bureau does not credit tho report that
all the bioux are on the war rath
They believe that neither Spotted Tail's
or lied Cloud s men are engaacd in any
warlike demonstrations, and feel con
fulcut that if any Sionx are mixed up
with the lawless movements that it is
only roaming raiders, who are not un
der the control of these chiefs, and i
would hardly be fair to hold the Sioux
a3 a nation, responsible for any raids or
depredations committed by these lawless
bauds.
Three highwaymen intercepted a
lady and gentleman near Kansas City
Mo., ou Thursday night and ordered
them to hold up their hands and deliver

robbers assailed them, knocking down
the lady Miss Alice Williams and
beating her serverely. The man cs
caped, leaving the lady to the mercy of
the brutes. J. hey searched ber person
but found nothing she having concealed
her watch in her.bosom. They left her
in an iusensible condition on the ground
and made their escape, but were sub

The locusts throughout Kansas beijan
to tako their flight on Friday last, and
immense swarms 01 them wore observed
in tho air, moving iu a northwest direc
tion Their instinct seems to direc
them to travel northwest, but occasion
ally unfavorable winds drive them out
of their course. Very few of the pests

now remain in 1110 otme. Advices
from all parts of Northwestern and
Southwestern Kansas are to the effect
that very few of them have descended
and consequently, the splendid ciops
inrougnout that vast region are as
promising as before the locusts came

tirely overlooks the fact, which is an.
parent to tho astonished eves of all th
civilized world, that we prohibit the ex-
cuange or commodities which would
render the exportation of cold entirely
unnecessary. Jude Kelley -closes his

the ignorance and stuniditv whinh r.
