RELIEF FOR OUR MANUFACTURERS.
When' the House Ways and - Means ,
Com
mittee, at an early,period of the session, re
ceived tromthe Executive Departtnentstheir
various -estimates for -the appropriations're
quired forthe ensiiing - fts`cal • year, it was"
found that these estimates would bear a very
large reductor' without injury to the, public
interests : The;sums to be granted for the
army, fife navy 'and the civil • service, both
foreign'arid doniestie, were therefore - judi
ciously-and decisively cut deism, to the end
of economy and;retrenchment, and the Com
mittee felt authorized to announce to the
Housd and the country that, by these reduc
tions and by othe - savings expenditure,
it would be practicable to reduce the burthen
of taxation to the extent of onethundred•and
-fifty , millions of dollars. This announce
ment was hailed with rneral satisfaction by
the people. Of course, such a reduction in
the amount of our annual taxes was justly
regarded.as presenting the.. first_ legitimate
opportunity for removing those burthens
upon our productive industry which only
onrenormOusivar expenditure had justified,
and which were first . and foremost entitled
to relief whenever, our improving finances
slkouldnllow it
In accordance with the budget as 'announ
ced by the Committee, the House twe'weeks
since passed a bill relieving the greater part
,of our d9PlcstiC.m.WlfactUrcrs from:the five
per cent tAx.ltet'etofore,reating upon them,
and sent the-I)lllViiiroi.he Senate. We were
*prelim:lave that the latter .body"
w ould
hesitate to sustain ameasuce of this decisive
character; uot,lrPanse , it had any feature of
injuitiee, Wan. the interests of the, Treas

a.nces of burglaries-and robberieis; and the 1- • ,
e.xecutivd - authmities .Were beginning to
complain of the extreme dullness of the
times; but the relief, it seems,was only tem
porary,, as the professionals 'resumed busi
ness on ' Wednesday night. A car
penter. shop on Ohio street, near S3reamore,
was entered through a window, the shutter
of-which was pried .open. A : number of
tool chests belonging to men employed -in
theshop were broke open, and -all the more
valhable tools stolen. !,The same )ilght the
yineyard Saloon, in Duquesne borough,
Wm. Beefless, propriethri was burglarious-t
1y entered; probably by the , same partieg
who robbed the carpenter shop. The thievery:
succeeded'in effecting an entrance into the
bar-room by cuttting open a window shut--
ter.. 'The money drawer was broken open,
and the operators. btained about ten dol
lars in money . and a valuable .silver hunt
inn case watch for their trouble. They also
carried off 'an overcoat which was hanging .
up ,in the saloon. The shop of Mr. ffitne,
in thelmniediate "neighborhood; was also
visited the same night;, but, although the
door and windows shoW unmistakable sigra3
of laborious efforts on the part of the
thieves, the attempt to force . , them open
'was unsuccessful. The Alleheny police
were "working on' , the "cases" yesterday,
but as yet have found. no clue to the rob
bers.
DeFerved Compliment.
Justice Ammon,. of East Binningham,
has been r a e-elected to his position by an
everwhelming majority, and one which
affords him a complete triumph over a few
who recently endeavored to cast aspersion
on his private character. Messrs Walter,
Beck and Foell, all very worthy, intelligent
and capable. gentlemen, have een chosen
by equally flattering majorities as members
of the Council of that borough.
..We are
glad that Mr. George E. Slocum, a fit and
representative citizen, has been, elected by
a large majority Burgess of the borough, a
position he will fill with credit and ,distinc
tion to himself and constituents.,
