SUNBUHY, MAY 13, 1871.
TnE President bas issued a protlania-
t tion calling the attention ef the people of ,
the Uuited State, ana more patcuiny
; of thoso localities lately in rebellion,-to the
provisions of tho Enforcement Act recent
: ly passed by Congress, known the Ku-
Klux bin. Thi. aot "applies to all parte
' of the United Status, and will be euforced
' everywhere, to the exteut of the powers
vested in the Executive."
A canvass of the voters of the 4th ward
or .New Haven, Connecticut, was umiu on
Saturday, and G79 citizens were found who
have sworn, that they voted for Governor
Jewell at the late election. The number of
votes found iu the box, according to the
accouut on Saturday, was only 4U7, while
. the re-turn called fur COT. The names of
nearly all who voted for Mr. Jewell, as
given iu the return, have beeu obtained.
This seems to conllrm tho report that soma
of Mr. Jewell's votes were nbstiaeted from
the box.
The State Finances. When the Re
publicans came into power iu Pennsylvania
they found it burdened with -a debt of over
forty millions of dollars, a legacy of Bhani
pemncratie rule. AVhat has been accom
plished by the Republican parly, by ccono-
my'and good nianagement,notwlthstanding
the heavy expenses of a war and its conse
quent burdens, U shown by the following
Iteport of the Commissioners of the Sinking
Fund, which states that the total debt April
30, 1871, was 829,o0j,1S7 71 ah average re
duction of about a million a year since the
Republican party has been in power in the
State. The people appreciate this gratify
ing conditiou of the State finances, and
will be slow to hand its affairs over to a
party which has heretofore mismanaged
and-iucreased the burdens of tax-payers :

DEMOCRATIC Inconsistency. The
Democratic papers certainly show great
inconsistency iu advocating the repeal f
the income tax while, at the same time,
thy'eall for the taxation of uational bonds
All the exemption the bonds enjoy by law
(brjs the Chicago Post), is the provision
that no Slate or municipal corporation
shall levey taxes on . them ; but Congress
itself levies an in?omc tax on all incomes
from bonds exceeding 2,000 per annum,
and this tax is the one the Democratic
press insists shall bo repealed ! They
would tax tho bondholder by repealing the
only tax he pays I This is about as near a
common sense view of public affairs as they
tfcncrally reach. To demand taxation aud
urge its re: eal in the same issue is highly
characteristic of that party's method.
Among the choice bits of news we get
this w eck from Xew York is an account of
the murder of a peaceable and unoffendiug
merchant by a bullying rowdy. The oc
currence was outrageous. The merchant
was attempting by expostulation to pre
vent the rowdy from msulting ladies iu a
struct car. The Xew York -Sun says, as
the murderer is in tho Tammany ring, of
course he will not bo hung. Whether
Tammany will be able in this instance to
violate all justice and public safety, can
not yet DetolU. There is a great deal of
sympathy manifested by the merchants
and other friends of tho deceased. Low
Us the morals of New York are we cannot
think they are low enough to save this mur
derer from being made an example to justice.

Another Riot near Srrnntoa.
Scrantox, May 9. Intelligence WBi
orougni to scran ton mat a bloody encoun
ter had taken place in the vicinity of tho
Dodge Shaft, at two o'clock this afternoon.
I immediately started for the scene, and
found that a disturbance had taken place
I iu ft neiu autotniug ma Hampton mines.
I A number of laborers from Patagonia, Hyde
Park, Bolleview, and some other sections,
determined upon holding n meeting to dis-
cuss the situation of all'airs, and to ' deter
mine what line of conduct they should pur
sue uudur existiug circumstnuces.
the assault.
At two o'clock the laborers assembled in
the Held aforesaid, and were being address
ed by one of their number when a crowd
of frenzied WelBh females, backed by about
thirty men, came rushing upon them,
throwing stones at the laborers and calling
them ''blacklegs" and every oimrobrious
-epithet their unchaste tongues could utter.
riM... 1..I ,.! . i ;..- .. ,
aiiu iiiuoiein tuiu i ne 111 10 ucsibiuuu moveu
off, not wishing to molest them ; but they
were followed by the infuriated -crowd, who
continued to shower stones. Their cowardly
husbands in tho mcanlimo went to their
assistance, and urged them to persist iu
their attack.
FISTOLS DIt AWN SHOTS FIRED.
The loborers finally turned upon thefr
assailants nnd returned the assault with
interest. Pistols were drawn and shots
tired, one of which look clR'Ct in the thigh
of William Gore, a miner. Gore Is a 'des
perate and notorious chnntcter. Tito fight
became general, men, women and boys
joining pell-mell in the onslaught. One of
the number got a blow in the ribs and fell
down 'inn, tit: another, named Louisa, the
daughter of Thomas Barrow, a miner, wa
badly cut on tho head. The miners every
w here tried to throw all the blame on the
laborers. The ntlack was brutal and cow
ardly on the part of the miners, the laborers
not being guilty of the slightest provoca
tion. The assault was of the most formid
able aud determined character.
LABOIIEKS AGAIX INTERCEPTED.
Tho place of contlict was covered with
sticks and fragments of rocks. The labor
ers still beut ou bavin.' their mcctiutr. after
having dispersed their' assailants, proceed-
c-u to xtij;a- ouuii. ii'm ui inn disaster
to the V. B. A. men spread like wildlirc,
and tho crowd was rnnidlv augmented and
became fearfully determiued iu tho desire
u continue the attack, beeing the labor
ers approach iu their direction along the
railroad, they marched off toward llvdo
Park, but after proceeding a short distance
they turned and intercepted the laborers on
the railroad near the Briggs Shaft.
The miuers outnumbered the laborers aj
this point, ten to one, and, confident of
their superiority in this respect, fell upon
them in a merciless manner. It was at
one time feared that a general riot would
rusue, as the people began to pour down to
the scene in great numbers, but the labor
ers were so tew in number that but a feeble
resistance could be made against the mur
derous and overwhelming assault.
MOKE FlOnTIXQ FEMALES.
The miners had armed themselves with
pistols aud clubs, which they used with
murderous effect upon the laborers : and,
the women thinking it a good opportunity
to emulate the example of their sisters at
Patagonia, showered stones upon their
heads. Tho laborers, after discharging
their pistols without effect, fled up the rail
road toward tho Notch, but not until a
number of them had been wounded and
fallen into the hands of their persecutors.

ghastly wounds, and thrown upon the road

him as an object of curiosity, and then j
turning away the only spark of tenderness
in their brutal hearts being a curso for the
"blackleg." Ho was at length picked up
by some inoti who happened to be passing
in a wagou, and takeu to his homeiu Belle

was shot iu tho head by a pistol ball, which
penetrated the forehead and lodged between
the tables ot the brain. Mot content with
this, they seized him and kicked him,
breaking thiee of his ribs and otherwise
maltreating him. Martin Gallagher was
also beaten iu a shocking manner, having
received severul terrible cuts in the head,
which were attended with great loss of
blood. Several other men were wounded,
but they cscacd through the swamp near
Bri.;ySi .Shall to the woods, some of them
die or await the approach of night to re
turn to their liotnes.

immediately to the scene of the disturbance

Enforcing Hie I.awN In the Sonth
Troops Kent to Koulht'uroliun.
Washington, May C.
Tho rreshlont has taken Rteps to protect
the citizens of South Carolina from further
Ku-klus outrages, nnd to enforce tho exist
ing laws. Some days ago orders were qui
etly given through the War IX-partnient to
scud a 8tron hody of cavalry, a detach
ment of infantry nnd scvoral piect-s of artil
lery to uiiarieston nnd Uoiumina.tor use in
the counties where the civil authorities arc
powerless to give protection. and where tho
laws are icuored. A portion of these troops
were ordered from the West, nnd the re- i
niaindct from various points in the South.
By the present time, it is supposed, near
ly the whole of this miliary force have nr
rived within the borders of South Carolina,
ready to be used in enforcing the laws. A
company of cavalry was expected to rench
Charleston by Thursday morning, nnd
will proceed nt once to the comities in the
upper part of the Hate. Thisnction of the
Administration, in having sent troops to
tho locality wlicro the largest number of
disorders arc repo-ted, has caused some
surprise here, iu viw of the fact that but a
few days ngo a statement was made that
tho President did Lot think it would be
necessary to carry out the Ku-klux nill by
using the military. It is supposed, how'
ever, that danger was apprehended, and it
wns therefore proposed to have military
within reach if required. Southern Repub
licans now here are pleased, and say that
tho President litis acted in the right spirit
by thus early taking steps to carry out tho
recent law passed by Congress.
