Considerable Interest is felt In the coal re
gion In regard to the final result of the strikes
going on here. In the Shamokiu reiou w here
the Miner's Union has not buen as strong as in
Other parts, work in the mines has progressed
until this time ithout any interruption and
qnlet prevailed throughout that region. Receut
ly large additions were made to the Uulon at
that place.and it is supposed that woik will soon
be suspended iu the mines unless their demands
arecompied with. The miners aud laboring
men In the bhamokin region deprecate the acts
of violence committed at Hazleton and other
placet by their co-workmen. Should operations
b suspended generally throughout the coal re
gion, thousands of men will be thrown out of
mployraent and business will receive another
'heck for several months. We hope that this
ill not be the case, that operations will be push-
forward, and that a speedy settlement of the
aent difficulties will at once be made between
ltolnera, laboring men and the operators,
r-SAlat the business af the country will not re
Jfcrogade alter having aoch flattering prospects
An Eleoast Building. The uew law build
ing just completed by S. P. Wolverton, Esq , in
Second street, near the Court House, in this place,
is acknowledged to be one of the handsomest
structures as well as the most complete, in all
its appointments, iu the Stale. The building is of
biick, three stories high, painted to mutate gruu
lir. wliii'h it rlosi-lv resembles at a distance. It
is located on the corner, w ith a front of thirty
feet on Second street, aud is seventy-three feet
deep. A double massive front door, opens into
a vestibule, the floor of which is tesselated mar
ble, and Ihe sides are waiiisconted with polished
white marble. The first floor contains a suite of
three rooms occupied by Mr. Wolverton as his
law office. These rooms are wuinscoated wilh
walnut, and the floor laid w ith narrow alternate
strips of oak aud walnut, oiled. The woodwork
is paiuted in imitation of rosewood. From the
high ceiling arc suspended massive and hand
some chandeliers. The rooms are nil heated by
i furnace iu the cellar, and cacti room contains,
Oesides the register for the introduction of heat
from the furnace, a grate set into a fire place,
over which is a handsome marbelized slate man
tle. From the centre of the building, on the
60Uth side, is a large vault, arranged with draw
ers and pigeon holes. These vaults have Mar
vin's iron frames and doots with combination,
locks, aud cxlcud up to the Ihiid floor. The
back room communicates with several 6mall
rooms, one of which is a w ash And dressing room,
with running water auu all the conveniences of
the toilet.
On the second floor arc two snits of rooms, oc
cupied as law offices, two in front and three iu
the rear, the latter beiug reached by a passage
behind the vault. The frout offices are occupied
by L. H. Kase, Esq., and the rear by S. B. Boy.
er, Esq., These offices arc also supplied by
Vaults similar to those below csccpt that tbey
are ha-f the size. They are also supplied with
registers lor f urnaces heal, as wel us grates and
marbelized slate mautles, haudsome chandeliers
and other conveniences seldom teen except iu
lirst-class buildings.
Ou the third floor are five very commodious
rooms besides .several small chambers, all hand
somely finished.
Mr. Wolverton deserves great credit for this
euterprire. He has erected a struciuie ni- " "
model or its kind, oue that we have never Been
equalled, aud w hich it would be difficult to excel.
The bulldiug isofthe most durable character
as well as imKsing iu appearance. Jlr. weizci,
of Danville, was the architect, and no expeuso
was spared to make it complete in all its parts.
Tuoi bles 15 the Coal Region. The Super
intended of the Reading R. R. Co. applied tolhe
Goveruor, on Wednesday, lor aid to quell the
aisturbances iu the coal regions, and states that
the men in the employ of the company at Gowen
had been compelled to cease work by the strik
trs, and that they could not resume operations
uuless protected by a strong force ; that cngiues
had been threwn from the track and trams were
flreH Into between Locust uuP nn.i iviasKa.
Laitfe crowds are reported to be gathering at
Excelsior and Gordon, and that several thousand
of the mob have gathered at Ashlaud to attack
the employees of the company. With this in
formation the Governor has authorized the fol
lowing to be transmitted to the cherifTs of
Schuylkill, Columbia and Northumberland coun
ties :
"I am informed that a tumult or mob disturb
ing the public peace exists in your county ana
an application has been made to me under the
act of May 4, 18(54, to suppress the same. Be
fore I act on this application I consider it your
duty, as the civil officer of your county, to order
out the posse comitatus without delay and sup
press all tumults, riots, mobs or unlawful inter
ferencc with person or ptoperty in your county.

Moviso or tue Ice. The mild weather during
the past week caused the ice to melt rapidly, ana
the uorgcs.in the river below this place, were
disappearing grudually. The river at this plate,
raised some live feet on yesterday morning, but
there has not been sufficient water to carry olT
thegoigeson the West aud North Branches.
By dispatches we learj that the Gien Union
to'ge bad started and traiu Lands report haviug
passed it at Lock Haven. The gorge above Mil
ton moved, but etopled between Wiufield and
L,. wisbiirg. I ue water backed up nnd inunda
ted the low parts ot th.it towu. At Lewisburg
Junction and Montandon tome 6lx to eight feet
of water covered the lands aoug the river. Farm
houses and bams were surrounded bl' water and
many sought refuge by climbing to the roof of
the buildings. Passengers on the 0:40 a. tn.
train south slate that the sighl iu that vicinity
is distressing. The ice gorge above the
West Branch bridge at Northumberland, was
krpt buck by the heavy ice remaining on the ri
ver for several miles.
About 1 o'clock, P. M., yesterday, the gorges
above the Northumberland bridge In the West
branch gave way aud passed this place, the kight
up and down the river being majestically grand
aud was witnessed by hundreds of people along
the bank. The water iu the river is uot more
than the height of an ordiuary freshet, and
wouid require at least six or eight feet to reach
the top of the bnnks at this poiut. The ice pasB
ed off without any material damage up to this
wriiiug. The banks of the river are well pro
tected, and as the lee moved down the stria in it
appearei1 to leave uutouched even the Ice along
the shores. Thus far there has not been the
least danger of any part of the town beiug in
uudated. The Daily of Tuesday complains that females
are insured at the dtqiol at this place. If such
is the case the officers of the road should be
made acquainted w tb the facts and we feel
satisfied that the offenders will be attended to.
The officers of the railroad company, we know
will uot tolerate such conduct, and parties who
may be iusulted by reporting to those officers
will receive the thanks of the company. Some
of the causes of these complaints arc, no cloubt.
caused by some improper characters frequenting
the depot on the arrival of trains, which will no
doubt be prohibited by theofflcei stationed there
if he is made known of the fact.

Spelling: Matches. Spelling contests ar
now going on in nearly every city aud town In
the State, and arc largely attended with success.
These matchrs are richly enjoyed, as they afford
great amusement among the contestants. They
are held iu private parlors, churches, school
houses, halls, &c, and occupy the place of exhi
bitions of a less beneficial character, to both the
youths and aged. While they arc instructive
they cieate uo little amusement to spectators,
and the party who may wiu the prize, wh'ch is
mostly a copy of Webster's Uuabriged Diction
ary, no doubt, foci encouraged in their progress
of good spelling. We would like to see exhibi
tions of the same kiud inaugurated in Snnbury,
as '.beio is some room for good Fillers.

The following form of Statement, be it cor
rect or incorrect, will do no more than balauce
(by comparing) the amount of cash received
with the duplicates, outstanding taxes, percent
age and exonerations, and therefore cannot be
relied upon entirely for producing or showing
the true amount actually received by the Treas
urer from the collectors as will be observed by
comparing the two Reports, both balance In this
respect, the amount of the duplicates being
nearly the same, yet there is a difference of out
standing taxes of y39 34 and $225 35 iu cash
received on duplicates, and $52 04 in the orders j
paid by Treasurer. j

Reasous for (as will be observed iu striking
the balance of the Commissioners' account in
the following statement) disallowing or reject
ing oue order granted, "A. Cadwallader" late
Treasurer, one order to "R. M. Cummings, for
advertising land for sale outside the county.
Also part of an order granted to the present
Treasurer, (or rather cash advanced) for paying
all the tuxes on laud sold by the Treasurer to the
Commissioners ; also a certain rate percentage
for money borrowed by Commissioners, aud re
paid by Treasurer. The order granted to A.
Cadwallader, for $115 83. in January, 1874, (as
the bill represents) was given for the credit al
lowed the county, of one per ft. by ibe State
Tieas'r, for money paid out of the couuty funds
to the State by A. Cadwallader, In the years of
1872 and 1873, for which payments he made to
the Stale, he was allowed per cent, in his set
tlement by the Auditors iu 1873 ana 1874. Now
if this order is allowed him his percentage wiil
be 3 per cent, instead of one per cent., as I
think is the law for paying money tn the State
by Couuty Treasurers. The order granted lo R.
M. Cummiiigs, Esq., for 81087 50, for advertis
ing sales of land outside of county. Said adver
tising was paid by Mr. Cummings, as he
was required by agreement, said to have been
made w ith the Commissioners. Why is it, that
he paid more tnoniy into the Treasury than he
was required to do and then drew it out again,
if not to increase the Treasurer's percentage. De
ducting said order with the percentage added,
from the amount be paid iuto the Treasury,
would leave a net balance remaining of $7042 35,
or about forty-two per cent of the whole amount
realized. The order granted to the Treasnrer
for paying all the taxes, as above stated, viz : for
County, Poor, Road and School taxes, at the time
of the sale, amount to ?2212 63, aud as near as
I could ascertain the basis of this order is made
up of the following items, viz : Road, School and
Poor tax, amounting to f 1351 45; County tax
$231 03, aud 120 deeds, at the rate of Vt 00 per
deed, making $030 00. Treasurer's fees out of
which the Treasurer to pay for advertising sales.
Now I hold the Treasurer can retain said part
of $230 03, county tax, since I cannot see that
he is charged in the Report of the majority
with that amount to balance the County tax on
land sold to the oniniissioners. And at bes', it
seems to me. that it is rather a loose and Com
plicated waj ol managing sales of land, by ad
vancing money to the Treasurer, before the taxes
are called lor. Why not issue the orders (as I
think the lnw requires) at the time, when pay
ment is re-j aired to be made, separate and apart
for each town-hip. instead of advancing the
money, in a single order, mixed up with county
tax and Treasurer's fees for deeds. The Com
missioners borrow money, the Treasurer pays it
out, lor which he irrts 2'.' er cent. Afterwards
money Is paid into the Treasury by the collect
ors. The Treasurer pays it bacK lo bank, for
which he is ug.iin allowed 2J-J per cent., making
his percentage $500 00 on ?10.00( borrowed
money. '"The Treasurer shall receive the same
per centum ns was lawfully received by his im
mediate predecessor for like services," act April
18th, 1874. The Commissioners with the appro
priation of the Auditors, shall from time to lime
settle the rate per cent, of the Treasurer ; which
was neglected by said oCleials ; consequently the
Treasurer Is not governed by any legal per cent.

I, the undersigned, one of the Auditors of
Northumberland County, Stateof Pennsylvania,
do certify, that in puisuauce of a special Act of
Assembly, passed March 31st, A. D. 1859, met
the Auditors of the majority report in the Com
missioners' ollice, on the third Monday of Jan
uary, A. P. 1875, and assisted them as much as
iliey desired me to do when present, nntil they
had their report completed according to their
judgment or custom, upon the expectation that
if their report did not prove satisfactory to me,
they woulu in return assist mo to complete one
according to my judgment and sense of duty;
but in this I was disappointed, because they de
clined doinn so. I further certify that the re
port of the majority did not prove -atlsfactory
to me, whereupon I did adjourn from time to
time, and did audit, adjust and state the accounts
of the Treasurer and Commissioners to the best
of my judgment nnd ability. The available as
sets of the county on the 1st of January, 1S75,
were tietween sixteen and seventeen thousand
dollars ibovc the indebtedness. 1 concluded by
submitting this the minority report to the Hon
orable Court and the public generally, and hop
ing that if I may have committed any errors
they will be satisfactorily corrected, that justice
may be doue the County aud all parties interest
ed, according to law.
Iu witness whereof 1 have hereunto set my
hand and seal, this 25ta day of February, A. D.
