jjpr-DicKEN. The furore caused iu Uob

has nearly subsided. Mr. Dicken's trausecud
uud ubililies, as a writer, cui.uut be question
ed, but, wo have alwuys tutertaiued the
opinion that most of those who paid from
three; to four dollars to hear Mr. Dickens
lead, did so, more for the purpose of seeing
thuu hearing the distinguished author. The !
trukishis of the Philadelphia Press fully
i.isuias this opinion. The Press says:

"The Northern Central Railway, whose
termini are Baltimore, Maryland, and Can

other 1123 miles, is now one of the most im
portant roads iu the country.
"With its numerous branches aud connec
tions it opens up a vast field lor trade und
busiiii-ss, und ulfords many facilities for
developing the immense resources of the
fertile region through which it passes. The

Williain&port. At Williamspoit the Llmira
division of the Northern Central Railway
begins, aud runs to Llmira, where it con
nects with the New York und Erie Railroad.
The road from Klmira to Cuuanduiguc, is
also operated by the Northern Central 'Rail
way, und is called the Cunundaic.ua division.
The New York Central is intersected ut
Canauduigua, which is the Norfhern termi
nus of this road. This is tha great North
ern Central and Western route from liulti

arc first class, aud its conveniences for travel
not exceeded by any other raad iu thecoun-
try. A r.ew double track is completed bc-

the entire leugth is in good order, and from
the careful and thorough inspection it re
ceives daily, ut the bauds of Mr. Du Haven
the euergetic road muster und his efficient
assistants, is uu ussurunce that the road will
be kept iu splendid condition. The officers
of this road are Messrs. J. D. Cameron, Pre
sident, J. N. Dubarry, Genarat Superintend
ent, Ed. S. Young, Genera! Ticket Agent,
and Mr. De Haven, Road Master. These
geatleineu are all men of high character and
intelligence, and the successful manner in
which thev manage the complicated and
multifarious affairs of this great corporation,
and the prompt, thorough and systematic
mode iu which tliey transact the business of
fheir rexpectivo departments, conclusively
show them to by "the ri'ht men iu the right
place."
The scenery along the route of tlieNoi th
em Central Railway is exceedingly varied,
alw ays interesting, uud iu many places grand
und picturesque. As you emerge, from the
city of Baltimore, leaving behind the dust
uud smoke, uud the ceaseless hum of untir
ing industry, and roll out iuto the country
a splendid panorama of living beauty i
spread out before you. The scenery is full
of change and vuriety. The highly cultiva
ted fields, the tasteful cottages, the elegunt
villages, the substantial farm houses, rapidly
alternating with dense woods, ledges of lock
and shining streams. At York Haven the
road reaches tho Susquehanna river, aud
from thence to Williauispurt, a distance of
over one hundred miles, u succession of grand
and picturesque views of river scenery are
presented, w hich are only equalled by' that
on the majestic Hudson. After leaving
Williainsport, the mountain panoramas are
magnificently grand and imputing. The
"eteiual hills," "rock ribbed and undent us
the sun," covered with gigantic trees und
dense underwood rear high thtir beetling
cliffs on either side, aud seem like grim
sentinels stutioucd at the eutruuee to a valley
of romantic beauty. Tor muuy miles this
primitivo wilderness nnd woody solitude
surround you, and when you emerge from
the impenetrable woods, it is to be ushered
into a most beuiililul country, level or gently
uudulating, und exhibiting every evidence
of pro-ptiity and thiift. Ou through these
smiling acres w Lich stretch out far uud w idc,
but ulw ays impressing you with the most
iudubituble evidence of their inexhaustible
richness uud lertility. Wutkinsut length is
reached, and before you lies one of the most
splendid visions of w ater sceuery upon which
thecjbhus ever rested. The Seneca Luke
is forty miles in length, bud from three to
six milts wide. The water is most re murk s
blv clcur, uud so deep that in parts of the
lake r.o bottom 1:3 ever been found. The
! country tin rounding it is in many pluccs in
! the form cf inclined planes, vust iu extent,
and gently sloping hack from the water,
and dotted us it is with village nud ham
I lets, it iircseuls a most charmini aMieurunce.
.vf!tr leaving the lake the road runs through
j u Que country, passing by the Crooked and
Cununduiguu Lukes, and at the latter point
forms a junction w ith the New York Central
Itailroud. This hurried gluuce uot even a
bird's eye icw docs not give only the
most imperfect idea of the tine region
through hich this roud pusses, and it must
be seen to be properly appreciated.

Tho Hon. David A. Wells, Commissioner
of Revenue, iu his report just publishod,
states that the sum of 1UO,UOO,000 per an
num in irold may bo regarded as the con
stant" quantity required to pay the interest
on our National Debt. In this there is no
room for retrenchment, eccpt by paying off
tho principal, or by reducing the rate ot
interest at which It can be borrowed. The
ordinary expenses of Government, exclusive
ol the auove, lor ine year vuciiug uuuuuu,
18C7, were $101,664,077, being $3 31 per
capita; while the same expenses for the last
year preceding the war were $02,537,000, or
only $3 88 per capita. Mr. Wells assumes
that we ought to pay $50,000,000 per annum
ou account of the principal of the. National
Debt. The Customs Revenue for the past
80 months has averaged n rate of $170,000,
000 per an no in, and cannot probably fall
below $150,000,000. Although Mr. Wells
regards the taritf as prohibitory on some
articles formerly of extensive importation
(tbe internal revenue taxes arc equally pro
hibitory of articles formerly extensively
nianuiactured), yet he thinks no system of
taxation lias beeu devised which operates
so equally aud certainly as the tariif. No
doubt exists, therefore, that our tariff will
always pay our gold interest, with a consi
derable surplus.
Having required $180,000,000 ns a "con
stant" of revenue, for the payment of the
annual interest, and $50,000,000 of the prin
cipal of the National Debt, retrenchment, if
at uli, must lie made in this ordinary cxpen-
sts ol tlie (.iovemmellt, w liu li lust veur t x-
wdml $101,000,000. Mr. Wells does not
cllliln ,(iev Cil llL. miull! , low IIS bt(()re tlc
war, but denies that they need be 200 per
cent greater. He urges the reduction of the
Navy to a mere "police of the seas," of the
Army to the minimum, with no new ord
nance of foititiculions, no new public works,
no payment of damages sustaiued in conse
quence of the Rebellion, rigid economy, and
the fewest employees iu the Departments,
no purchases of iorcign territory, or treaties
diminishing our revenue. These means, he
thinks, would reduce the $100,000,000 of
last year to $140,000,000. This would
enable us to remove nearly the w hole burden
from our cotton, woolen, curpets, iron, steel,
muchiiicry, hats, leather, and similar domes
tic manufactures. Thus the amount requir
ed for all the purposes above designated
would be reduced ftom $U71, 000,000 to
$210,000,000.
The sources whence the revenue is to be
raised are steadily increasing, from the
natural increase of population, from immi
grution, from thu growth of manufactures,
and the progress of invention. The report
takes a hopeful view of the condition of our
gencrul industry. The Northern States have
paid off within the year from six per cent to
tilty per cent ol their state debt. 1 he town
and county war debts are being wiped out.
Our people ure importing aud consuming ns
largely as ever the luxuries of life. And we 1
aie to day the only nation w hich is either I
reducing or seriously trying to reduce its t
debt. The fall iu prices during the year lias
beeu general und even, applying lis well to '
cost of living as of labor and of goods, nnd
has, therefore, rested fairly ou the mass, and i
injuriously on very few. It has hud the
ellict, indeed, to make our currency go fur- j
ther in exchunge, and hence has been equi- i
vulciit, in some degree, to an expansion of !
.1. . o'i .. i r
i lie eui leuej , lueiu uiesitiiie uianeuea 01
industry whose very existence, however,
depends ou the removal ol Hie internal taxes
from them. A removal of all the internal
taxes which thus impede production would
be followed by a stirring revival of business
all over the country.
Mr. Wells favors the reduction of the
present tax on whisky from $2 to 50 cents
per gallon, nrjd believes tho lower rate
would icsul? in about $25,000,000 of rev
enue, while the higher has never produced
more than $30,000,000, being collected on
only one gallon iu three of the quantity
manufactured. He recommends thu increase
of the license tax on retail liquor dealers
from $25 to $100. which would produce- a
revenue of from $10,000,000 to $12,000,000.
The present license tax ou wholesale dealers
iu liquors is $100 ou $00,000 of sides, uud
1-10 of 1 per cent on ull over, and ou recti
fiers it is $23 pur 500 turrets. These two
tuxes uinout.ted lust vear to $1,177,320. By
substituting for the ubove u tax of 21 per
cent on sales, collectable monthly, uud 10
cents per gallon on spirits icclillcd. payable
weekly, they cuu bo made to yield 20,000,
000 per annum, making the total on distilled
spiiits from $50,000,000 to $110,000,000.
The tobacco tux is still mole diilicult of
collection, uud is evaded by dishonesty of
inspectors, by counterfeit brands, by using
the same packages over aguin, by substitu
ting highcr-piiccd for lower ultir inspection,
by allow ing small sales to be made without
inspection, by irresponsible bondsmen, &c.
As u remedy for this thu Commissioners
recommends the stamp system, and sulu iu
packages. The income tax will produce
about $U5,OUO,000. The Commissioner re-'
commends thul the exemption of $1,000
therefrom thull be changed, so as to apply
only to incomes which ure less than $1,500,
or $2,000, and also to equalize owners of
residences with tciiants, that no exemption
be malic of lent. The slump lax ought to
produce $23,000,000, but through evasions
fails to produce more than $17,000,000. A
recapitulation of the sources of revenue as
estimate 1 results us follows :
From dV.UU'il Siiiit3 (new system,) J5n.000.00u.
From fermented lifjuou. H.limi.ullll
From lubaeco uud lit manufactures. 20,0i'U,uuo
From iuuouic, . .'15,000.000

From bHiiks. riulroads, Ac, 10,000,000

From uifect'llunooua (Schedule A, Ao .) 2,lno.0o0
From fiaci, j.coal.ica, Ac , 1,4U0,U00
Total, flS2,000,000
l'xcept the stump tax, no taxes ure paid
so readily, or with so little evasion, as the
license tax. The Commissioner denouuees
the present system of distributing the rev
enue ollices lo re nurd political services us a
most expensive and unprofitable one for the
tax-payers, end recommends instead that
they be appointed only after examination by
a civil service board of exuminers, to consist
of live ollicers of the Treasury Department.
To such a board should uot only be referred
the ijuestious of appointments and removals,
but of rules and modes of collecting revenue,
aud changes in the revenue laws. By this
means our lereutte system, which ought to
be flexible, uud not rigid, would at the same
time be consistent und systematic. The
suggestions made by the rcpoit are the
result of long and familiar acquaintance
with the details of our revenue, and give
evidence of great clearness and impartiality
iu the investigation of tht subject.

Tho Senate has spent tho whole afternoon
upon the caso of Secretary Stanton, sustain
ing him by a Tory large vote thirty-five to
six. Speeches wore made by Messrs. Dixon,
Buckalewp, Hendricks, Doolittle nnd Davis,
in favor of tho President's course. Mr.
Kessonden made one of tho best speeches he
ever delivered in the Senate, in defense of
Secretary Stantou. Senators Morton and
Howard also replied to some of the imputa
tions of the Democrats upon the Secretary.
But when the vote was reached, at seven P.
M., the President's force was so badly de
molished and scattered, that only six could
be rallied to his support, viz . Bayard,
Davis, Dixon, Doolittle and Patterson, of
Those who voted to sustain the Secreta
ry were Messrs. Anthony, Cameron, Cattel,
Chandler, Cole, Conkling, Connes, Corbet,
Crugiu, Drake, Edmunds, Perry, Fcsscndcn,
Fowler, Freliughuysen, Harlan, Howard,

Senator Johnson had paired oil with Senator
Grimes, und Senator Henderson with Sena
tor Hendricks. Of tho Presidential sextette,
only three were elected as Democrats, viz. :
Messrs. Bayard, Buckalew and Davis, though
the others now always vote with the Democ
racy.
Official notice of the nctien of tin Senate
was sent to General Grant this evening, who
will, it is asserted by his fiieuds, turn over
the Department to Secretary Stanton, who
is thus, by the action of the Senate, rein
stated in bis otllice without further ceremo

take up, has not yet been developed, aud it
is dcubtful whether he has made up hh

The Senate, last evening, notified both
General Grant nnd Secretary Stanton of
their action. This morning Genera! Grunt
left the key of the office of Secretary of War
with the Adjutant General, und went to his

The Adjutant General gave th key to Sec

of the olliee, giving his orders ns ol old.
The President was notified at the same
time Grant and Stantou were of the action
of the Senate. It is not known w hut he will
do. The general belief is that he will im
mediately issue on order suspending Stanton
on other charges than those upon w hich lie
was before suspended. This, however, w ill
have little effect, as Stantou retains the olliee !
until the Scnule decides on the uct ol his :

lu the Couventiou to-duv the debate on
the resolution asking Congress for power to
remove l tie Mate othcers was very exciting
und bitter. Mr. Miller, who has hitherto
acted with the majority, surprised the Con
vention, by denouncing thu measure. He
declared thut a large majority present repre
sented negro votes, and not the tax paying
iuhtibitiiuta of Georgia. He denounced the
meusurc us u monstrous deviltry, declared
thut Jucohiu clubs held nightly meetings to
shape thu course of the Convention, nud
appealed to Congress andhe Americuu peo
ple, in the name of humanity, liberty and in
the name of the white race, for protection
from the plots of those who comprised the
majority.
The debate was very bitter and acrimo
nious. I't'oiu 'lViiucMbet'.

AltlZOXA.
Arizona, known as the "Gadsden pur
chase," is a territory of some 130,000 square
miles. It was purchased, by the United
! States, from the Kcpub'io uf Mexico for
$10,000,000 and taken possession ot by Uui
I ted flutes troops, iu October, 131. It is
j bounded on the north by Nevada uud Utah ;
south by tb'u Mexican Stutes of Chihuahua
i uud .Soiiota, of which it was formerly part ;
cu.-.t by Xev Mexico, uud west by ihe Colo-
lado liver of the west.
; It is diver.-iticd by mountain ranges, many
! of the elevations of which rise to a height
I fif 10,000 feet ubove the level of the sea. Iu
j the eastern part of the territory are ridges
' of the Hockv Mountains. A characteristic
of nearly all, is their entire destitution of
limber or vegetatiou of any hind, f ome ol
the lower peuks are covered with a pcculiur
species of oak, w hich produces ucoriis that
ure both palutuble Hid nutritious, und ure
Used iu great qiiuulit .es by t lie w ild Apaches.
I ue climate is temperate; the atmosphere,
! eublaining but little oxt gcu. is leudered ex
j treniely transparent. Iu this respect it dif-
i icrs tuatcriallv from that of the Atlantic
coast. Objects which there can he seen,
with clearness, at a distunce of live miles,
cuu be seen with coital distinctness, in this
country, twenty -five miles.
llaiiis me not frequent, und as il ligation
is necessary for the cultivation uf the lauds,
und liver systems ure scarce, but little cf
the country yields sufficient produce for
the consumption of its scanty population.
The valley of tho Buntn Cruz eontuius much
alluvial soil; it is however confined to tracts
along the run buuks. This stream siuks
ut a point 15U miles from its mouth. It is
a singular fact, that the course of the river,
after it sinks, cuu be traced, by trees aud
vegetation, as far us the biilu liver, where it
empties. This peculiarity ol w ater sinking
ia not confined to thu Sautu Criu, but may
be culled one of the eccentricities o!' Arizona
streams. Another and u more disagrecuble
feature, is their alkaline properties, tasting
like that of our Pnstirn streams, were they
liltercd through a tub of ahes.
It is supposed thut the uiiueial resources
arc inexhaustible. Uoia uiiounus iu the
north, silver iu the south, irou and copper
iu all parts. The facilities for working
miues are cither uot procurable in this ter
ritory, or indifferent capital has been en-
ployed, for it is ccrtaiu uo great fortunes
have, at yet, accrued from them.
As early as 16S7 this country w as explored
by the Jesuits from Spain. They returned to
Souora, then a Spanish colony und tejiorted
that the territory north abounded iu pre
cious metals. A rapid emigration took
place. Missious,,at various points, in the
ferlilo valleys, we're established. A number
of the church edifices are still standing;
they are monuments that pay a lasting lii
bute to the indomitable energy of the Jesuits.
Among the number 1 would meiitiou that
oi fcuu Aavier del ac, in which arc com
biued uot only great tue and strength, but
mticb architectural beauty. It i spleudidly
ornamented withiu. and although built
ucarlv two hundred years ago, with such
material us was then at hand, it is still in a
Hue state of preservation. Hero are found
the images of the Saviour, Virgin Mary,
Apostles and Saints. Statuary tills every
niche of this immenso structure, aud much
of it, though only cast in clay, would put
to shame that of some more uiodera sculp
tors. The same bells that two centuries ago,
pealed fwrlh the Vesper call to a thousand
worshippers, dp r chimes ae sweet at cons
i to the rude u.utaugb.1 illg Indian. -
At tho time tho Jesuits entered this terri
tory, with teif of settling it, the Papngos
I v.ra u m.tnarnna and WKrllka. Thu mis
sions were erected for the purpole of chris-
tianixiog thsrn. Many ut them embraced,
the Roman Catholic- faith, und the principal
part of the manual labor, in building these
churches, was performed by them.
A very large number, however, looked
with jealousy upon the intrusion of the
priests, rejected their religion, moved north
ward and settled on tho Gila river, where
they still live and number about 0,000.
They are known by tho name of "Pinias,"
and all friendly to tho whites. They own
much stock, cultivate more land and raise
more wheat than the balance nt the inhabi
tants of Arizona Combined. Last year they
sold to the government 8,000,000 pounds of
grain. They cluim to be descendants of the
Aztecs. Aa old and bcuutitul tradition still
exists in the tribe, their belief in the coining
of Monte.umn. A sentinel, occupying u
high hill, contiguous to their village, may
be seen every ruorniug at sua rise, watching
lor ins approach.
The "Pimas" have as neighbors the Muri
copas, a small band, numbering 1,500. These
were, at one time a powerful tribe, but were
so disseminated, by continual fighting with
lunias and Moturcs, they were unable to
cope with their enemies single-handed. In
1830 they made a treaty, with tho Pimns, by
which they were permitted to reside in their
midst. In 1837: the Yuma war party. 1,003
strong, inarched up tlicOiba, with a view of
surprising and unnihilutiug what w as left of
the .Muricopus. 1 hey succeeded in killing a
lew squaws, but the news ot their presence j

bleaching, on the very spot where this
bloody conflict took place.
I would here stute that the Yuma, at the
time this buttle whs fought, wcru uud still
ure thu friends of 'the w hite man. They
reside in the .Southwestern part of the terri
tory; the Pimas aud Maricopusiu the central
part, the Pupugos in the Southern part.
The above named Indians are often n-eful
allies, in campaigns ngainst the liu.-li!c
Apaches, who ure the scourge of thu bind,
murdering ami pillaging, w henever oppor
tunity oilers. They, not uufrerjuently, make
u decent upon u ijitrriiumd I'm m, liiivin
off herds of cattle and hoises, the property
of both Government and citizens.
It is time that the conciliatory policy,
hitherto ndopted, should be at an cud.
Nothing w ill Hullice in ease of these savages,
but u war of extermination.
As this article is already sufficiently
lengthy for ine publication, I will give u
