good quality further west. These discoveries add

aontown, who bat been Deputy Collector of Internal
Revenue for this coonty for the past two years; hu
been removed by the District Colleotor, Charles H
Sbriner, and Mr. Haute, until recently one 6f tie
publishers of the MUBlnburg Telegraph, appointed
In bit place. Mr. Bitel has been a faithful, atten
live And obliging offlotf , and our ottlienf will regret
fail removal, - We presume, of course, that the cause
of this aotloh on the 'part bf Mr. Bhrlner was the
wall known devotion of Mr, Bltel to the cause of
Republicanism, and who; although an offloe bolder
nder Johnson, hat alwayt been true to the prlnol-
plesof the Union party. The Miltonian, of Friday
last, notioei his removal as follows : ' . V'
"We bave lust learned that Cot. A. T. BIset.
Deputy Colleotor of Internal 'Revenue for this
county, bat bsen removed by Collector Shrlner, and
a gentleman from Union oounty appointed In hit
iieaa, ana inis, too, alter u waa announoea inaunr.
Bltel would eolleot the taxes as usual. No cause it
give for this strange prooeedur and his removal,
under the oircumstaooee, it not only aa-lnaalt to a
faithfal publlo officer, bttt an injury to his reputation
as a man. Maj. Shriner waa appointed Colleotor
under the Adminiitr. tlnn of President Lincoln, and
after he had been rejected by the apublioans of
Lycoming, Unioa and Snyder counties tor oiate
Benator. lie was not enuuea 10 me puBiuoa uv
when aeleeted had the stench of Democracy rank
and strong upon hit garments. Hi appointment
was a oiuiraer, a oiuoaor weunwu kurvugu

than a polltieai crime. .- The Kepublioaa party, to
day, hat no bitterer, nor more malignant foe than
maj. vhu M. Banner; to d suspeeieo or noia
iaa fullowihln with the nart that cut him In dace.
and feeds him, is an olfenoe punished with instant
removal from omoe."
Damns Robsirt. On Monday, the 27th ult.,
two mta called at the hotel of Mr. Solomon Mengit,
on the rivor below the out-let looks, In Muney Creek
township, during the absence of Mr. Mengis, and
after oalling for drinks, obe of them offered a bill In
payment, and while Mrs. Mengis Was In the act of
making the ohange, he struok her npon the side of
the head with a billy, knocking ber insensible upon
the floor, and then robbed ber of a pocket book
containing about $170.' The scoundrels then made
their escape into the Muncy Hills. Mr. Mengit
coming home and learning the facts at once quietly
set about to ferret Out the gutlty partlea. On Thurs
day evening last he visited Turbutvllle, Northum
berland oounty, for that purpose, and met a man
whom from the description given him by bis wife
he believed to be one of the men. On Friday
morning he had him arrested and brought before
Justice Painter, of this Borough, where ho was iden
tified by Mrs Mengis, and Mr. Hugh MoCabe, the
latter having teen tbe men take tbe road leading
Into the Muncy Hills, after the robbery, but at the
time did not know what bad been done. His name
is Brooch, and he resides at or near Turbutvllle.
He was oommltted to jail at Williamsport, in default
of bail. The other man Is still at large. Muney

Tax Strieb at Dahvillx. The Danville Avie
rtranaays: On Saturday last the Furnaoemen at
the Pennsylvania Iron Works notified tbe Manager,
Mr. Dan Morgan, that they must have an advance
of wages. eVhey were informed that on answer
would be givon on Monday morning. Accordingly
on Monday morning they were informed that a cer
tain advance would bo made. This did not satisfy
them, and they at once left the Furnaces, without,
as usual, blowing them out. Of course, to save the
immense expense and loss of a chill, tbe Furnaeee
bad to be drowned out, which also involves a heavy
loss. The mill hands are also threatened by pla
cards and raids in disguise, to cease working. -
Tub Statb Militia. Under a misapprehension
of tbe facts it has been stated that the bill for tho
reorganization of tbe militia of Pennsylvania passed
tbe Legislature and was signed by tho Governor.
Tbe bill failed in the Senate at the very last mo
ment, notwithstanding its passage was earnestly de
sired by Gov. Geary, as in bis judgment it was a
measure entirely calculated to place tbe militia of
Pennsylvania on a footing aa near as possible to that
occupied by the military foroos of other States. As
tbe facu now exist, it is shown that in this particu
lar Pennsylvania is far behind tbe other States in
armament, equipment and aggregate of militia'.
We spend leu money now, and have always appro
priated less than any of the other States, for such
purposes.

The real estate of Jacob Beaver, deceased, and

aorea, was sold to George Dreete at $125 10 per
acre, without buildings. The other tract was sold
to Michael Beaver at $91 25 per acre. This is tho
largest tale made in Snyder oounty eince its organi
sation. Tbb aitisens of Danville bave tak.n stops toward
the introduction of water in that plaoe. A meeting
was held on Monday evening of last woek, and a
permanent organisation ef a water company effeoled
by tbe election of Thomas Beaver, President ; I. X.
Grier, Secretary, and David Clark, Treasurer.
Managers and several committees were appointed,
and tbe enterprise now bids fair to be a suceess.
A bill passed tbe lata Legislature tnakiug im
portant changes in the fees allowed to oounty offi
cers, including Sheriffs, Registers, Reoorders, Pro
thonotariee, Clerks of tbe Courts, Justices of the
Peace and Constables. T be fees, as a general thing,
