The Pittsburgh Comviercial 6ays:
The people of the town of Hender
son, Texas, had a real old fashioned
Democratic celebration over the re
cent liourbon victory in that State.
Thev made a bonfire of a colored
6chool house, mobled the " Yankee''
teacher, and wound up the festivity
by hang'mga'Kadicar' negro. Then
their cup of rejoicing being full
they quietly retired to their couches,
to dream over their glorious victory.

II. Armstrong, of that city, a a can-j
didate for Governor of I'ennsylva
ni at the next election. Armstrong
is a good lawyer and played admira
lty into the hands of lluckalew in
the late convention. Iut we are in
clined to think that before the next
Gubernatorial election the Republi
can party will have discovered how
badly the' were sold out in the con

Hon. Desist W. Gr.ET, convicted! the new Constitution, is insisting
in New York last week as a partici-! upon a radical reduction of salaries
pant in the "King" frauds, and for j and t'je emoluments of office, and de
cheating the city iu the erection of I mai.ditif the most rigid economy;
the Court House, was, after convic-!au l bcre, evidently, will be the salient

tured. Genet was elected to the Leg-j There legislators are most likely to j
islaturc last XovemWr ns one of the ; rush into the ono or the other ex-,
rerular candidates of the Democrat- trenie. There is a wide difference
ic party.
The Pennsylvania railroad, and
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad com
panies Lave got into a square fight,
the result of which is a mutual cut
ting of throats, in the way of reduc
ing fares. This warfare has been
going on for some time, and fare
from St Louis to Ilaltimore is now
ten dollars, and from Pittsburgh to
Washington and Baltimore five dol
lars. There is no doubt that the trav
eling public can stand this as long as
the railroads ean.
The locomotive engineers on the
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad, and on all the leased lines
t( the Pennsylvania road west of
Pittsburgh, are on a strik lecause of
a reduction of wages. Travel is very
much deranged and delayed, and the
shipment of freight is nearly at a
stand still. The Pennsylvania rail
road has given notice f a similar
reduction of wages to go into effect
on the first day of January, and a
strike of engineers on the line of that
rad is alo anticipated. The wages
f all employees of these roads, from
President down, have been reduced
ia the mtue proportion, (ten per
cent.,) und all submit to it without
opposition except the engineers, who
by instituting a geueral strike hope
to so disarrange business, as fn com
rl the companies to recede.
i meb one of the ilinieiilt.es an
ticipated in regard to to ihe loose
hraeo!ogy of the new Constitution,
lias already- arisen, the citizens of
Philadelphia mid Pittsburgh being
tn doubt es to whether their muuk-i-ji.il
election must or mast not be
JkM in February, 1S7. It is said
that tke eonvention, assembled at
Harrisburg oa Saturday last, for the
purpose of counting and declaring
(le rote, proposed to isue a procto--ol
declaring the true inteut and
meaning of the obscure and contro
verted ecctions. As yet, we have
Lcard nothing of their proceedings,
and altLough it would be in perfect
keeping with their former arrogant
pretentions to assume this duty nf
the Supreme Court, we opine that be
ing funriu officio, their manifesto
would be quite as efficacious as the
Pope's bull against the Comet.
Wiu. the new Constili'tion restore
the DettMicmtic party to poster in
Pennsylvania? is a question that is
now being lafubriously canvassed
Ly miic of the erdent Republican
advocates of its adoption. Already
William A. Wallace, (of coffer-pot
tiotorietj-,) who l.ad gone to Texas
as Vice President f tbe Southern
Pacific Railroad, scoots tbe spoils
from afar off, and has resigned his
position, and m ill resume Lis seat ia
the State Senate. And already have
the Pittsburgh W and other Demo
cratic papers intiaiatcd the opinion, i
tLat the adoption of tke new Consti-j
tetion has nut itnprove4 the chances
f the re-election of Hon. John Scott
ta lb r. S. Senate.
We believe as Leretofore stated,
that the ajortionmcnt comjK-lled by
the Constitution will throw the Huse
into the Lands of the Democrats, or
.,t least will not give tbe Ipubl,ns
uc a working majority, as by their
turner strength they are entitled j
.to, and that our immediate loss of:
:lL .Legislature jrill be prevented j

com-e we bow with an-im i

cheering pros-pcrt to see the grand
ol.l Kepublican party, tiu . has dona
... much fur the State, go out of
power through the ill adri-ed action
of it own members.
The '
ion of the Legislature that
aftMi.Ues next
week, will be Ilia
p anr
1 rencd for many
vears, and will nce-
Jessarily be a protracted 011c. 3fany
c.neral laws to meet the requirements
1 0f the new Constitution will have to
be enacted, end tnc Mate win u
to be apportioned into Judicial, Sen
atorial and Legislative districts. The
salaries of all public officers will
have to be arranged, aud uiaeh mis
cellaneous legislation will bo requir
ed to supplant and supply special and
local laws, and to give force and ef
fect to the Constitution.
We trust to eec members address
themselves to their work in good
faith, and with a full determination
to supplement the fundamental law
of the State with such wholesome
legislation as will best subserve the
interests and welfare of tht whole
people. Let there be no querulous
and captious opposition to distasteful
portions of the Constitution, but let
the inevitable be faced wHh manly
frankness, and a lull determination to
do the very best that can be done
under the circumstances. Members
will be lmset oa all sides, and they
will be watched by their constituents
and Lel.l strictly accountable.
This is the presumed dawn of an
era of reform, and as is the ease in
all reforms, bigotry and demagogue
ism will be rampant. Already the
blataut portion of the press, that pre
vious to the election, so mendacious
ly nroclflimed that the expenses of
administering the government would
j be largely reduced by the adoption of
between economy and niggardliness,
aud while we insist that the Legis
lature shall sternly practice the one,
we trust that neither from good or
bad motives, will it submit to being
bullied into the other. The genuine
reforms of the new Constitution are
to be found in the article on "legisla
tion," aud it is hoped by all that, un
der its provisions, a better class of
legislators will find their way to Har
risburg. Rut it is well understood
of ell men that, if the people want
good and able servants fhey must
pay a fair price for them, and that a
miserly pittance will not procure the
services of such men as the people
most require. Wc have always held
it t be true economy in private or
public affairs, to procure the best nec
essary article the market affords, be
cause its wear ami reiiaonuy more
than compensates fur its additional
first cost. fo ue believe that it will
not be true economy iu the Legisla
ture, when adjusting '.he compensa
tion of Judical, Legislative and other
officials, to so fix salaries that the
best available ability cannot be pro
cured at the price. "The laborer is
worthy of his hire," but we submit
that bruins and muscle should not be
valued at the same rate. Economy
is demanded and must he practised,
but niggardliness will defeat the ob-
. jject hoped to V attained.
We have wen no good reason to
alter previously expressed views of
the new Constitution, but we fhall
greatly rejoice if it add to the wel
fare of the entire people, and contrib
utes to the progress of the State.
It will probably remain unaltered for
many years, and we sincerely irusi
that all the legislation necessary to
make it operative, will be enacted
with a view solely to the interests of
tho entire community. AH good cit
izens have too deep an interest at
stake to permit captious or carping
hostility to override or interfere with
the gi-ivral public benefit.

SiXHUiv, December 21. A fire
broke out here last evening between
five and six o'clock in the stable of
John Mukle. The stable and three
horses were consumed. When the
fire w4 nearly out an alarm was
sounded agaiu ami it was found that
the large atablc belonging to the
City hotel, ebout two squares from
the first fire, was in flames. This
was entirely destroyed, aud also the
stable adjoining, owned by D. Heim

y0a whoso taxes fot up from
$1,000 to $10,000 each year can get
two per cent per month for it, or use
it in even more lucrative ways, while
the interest on their taxes is nothing
in comparison. Hundreds of thou
sands of dollars are retained in tn
way. A notable instance of ltia
practice in the case of a colored mill
ionaire ot JNcw Orleans, wno wis
dodged paying his tx until they
now amount to nearly $100,000 due
to the city and state. This man is a
character for a romance. He is so j
abstemious that he may 1 called a
miser. He disdains rest and with
wonderful activitv works on in a
small and obscure one story house
remote from the business portion of
the city. The building is his office
and his home. It is dingy and di
lapidated on the outside. Within a
kind of lobby, partitioned on trom the
main room, is the miser's office A
desk full of pigeon holes crammed
full of papers, an iron safe and a
chair or two constitute the only fur
niture. Ue3rond are the rooms whero
he lives with his mother, a woman
about a hundred years old. Yet
this man, so unpretentious in his bus
iness surroundings, has nearly a
hundred tenements, scattered all
over the city, which bring him any
where from $20 to $200 each per
month. He owns two hundred prop
erties, estimated to be worth at least
$700,000,besides bonds and cash to a
large amount. This man, however,
never pavs any taxes, except when
he disposes of a piece tf property,
and then only on that property. In
the sheriff's office aretax writs against
him dated back twelve years, and to
some of them are attached as much
as six yards of foolscap, filled through
out with closely written descriptions
of his property. The reason for
avoiding bis annual taxes is a sjcc
ulative one. The city charges him
ten jkt cent, interest on his money,
which he never loans except on
mortgage, and lie can make from
eighteen to twenty four per cent.
Every tenth year" also the taxes of
one year are wiped out by proscrip
tion. AVie Orleans Time.

Baltimore, Dec. 24. John Hop
kins, long reputed the wealthiest
citizen of Baltimore, died this moru
insr at his residence on Saratoga
street, in this city, iu the seventy-
ninth year of his age, after an illness
of several weeks. Since 1812 the
deceased has been engaged in active
business in this city up to his' recent
illness. He was prominently identi
fied with all tbe leading industries,
mercantile, commercial, banking and
railroad, and amassed a large fortune.
In March last Mr. Hopkins donated
property valuel at ?4,000,000 to
founding a free hospital in the city
for the indigent sick and poor, with
out regard to sex age or color, con
nected with which is a training
school for nurses. His great public
charities will place ls name beside
that of George Peabody, Peter Coop
er and other public lenefactors. He
was never married.
The Ylririniua.
New York, Deceruler 22. The
Tribune's Key West telegram gives
an account of the surrender of the
Virginius prisoners to Lieut Com
mander Braine, of the Juniata. It
appears that the Spanish authorities
to the last moment kept the poor
wretches in ignorance of their pro
spective release, and with base in
humanity led them to suppose that
they wero to be executed. Priests
were with them, taking their confes
sions and dying declarations, and
imploring them to look to God for
pardon. They were taken out of the
prison in despair, but on their way
to the slaughter pen, as they suppos
ed, th'ir e yes fell upon the Juniata,
flying the Hag of the L nited Mates,
when they realized the twih. A
scene occurred which beggars de
scription. Their enthusiasm knew
no bounds. They were speed ly
transferred to the deck or the Juni
ata, and gave vent to the most cx
travigant but touchiug demonstra
tions of joy, embracing each other,
some crying, some kissing, and oth
ers audibly offering thanks to the Al
inn
-hty for their delivcrauce from
the horrors of their dungeon and
tbe prospect of an ignominious death.
On the night beforo the surrender
the officers aud crew of tho Juniata
were stationed at quarters, her guns
beiug turned on the city, the Spanish
volunteers having been excited to an
open riot by the rumor that the sur
render was to take place. A large
number of volunteers went in a body
to the Governor' palace aud begged
permission to attempt the capture- of
the Juniata saying that they could
do it with knives alouc. The Gov
ernor refused to grant thi'UJ the per
misiou. Our officers believe that the
application was made in earnest, and
not a few reget that it was not fa
vorably entertained, as the Juniata
alone not to speak of the Kansas or
Pinta, would have been more than
a match for their assailants.
Ou the arrival of tho Pints at San
tiago, orders came to the ship from
Commander Braine for the paymas
ter to issue all the blankets and pea
jackets in his department to the pris
oners, who were hardly tit to be seen
in their tags. This was speedily
done, but as thero wa still great
destitution, orders came for every
man on board to give their own
blankets and wearing apparel in the
good cause, the promise being made
that all would bo replaced on the ar
rival of the ship at Key West. The
officers and men cheerfully complied
with this order, only preferring that
it shoidd be iued as a request, in
which case they should have obeyed
with Just as luucii alacrity. Every
heart was touched by the pitiable
condition of the prisoners. The poor
tellows report that they wero bar
barously treated.

TJ lover of liberty had been confin

having been committed from West
moreland county 011 a three years'
sentence for the roblwry of a jewelry
" u'l
rict, as he had been employed for
some time in cleaning the office.
which work he accomplished every
mornmg.
All thoughts of his attempting to
make his escape never teem to have
occurred to the officers. Yesterday
morning the convict, while at his ac
customed work, very mysteriously
disappeared, and a search through
out the institution failed to discover
the slightest trace of him. His man
ner of escape seems to have been
quite daring.
Finding himself in the office alone,
the convict discovered the overcoat,
pants and comforter of the warden's
son, and without any unnecessary
delay in the completion of his toilet
he changed his striped suit for the
clothes in the ofhee, and with these
on and his face almost coucealed by
the comforter, he walked out of the
office. His uniform was found on
the floor, and besides this no other
trace of bim has since been discover
ed. The convict was a native of
Poland, and about fifty years of age.

The Titusvillc Herald records the
following matrimonial muddle: A
singular marriage occurred iu ti.is
city on Tuesday last. The couple
presented themselves before a Justice
to have the ceremony performed.
The bride was rather elderly, say
alwut forty-five, while the groom was
but a little out of his teens. How
ever, as "Barkis was willin'," the
squire had no objection, and tied the
two in that knot which binds for life.
Since the honey moon begun it has
leaked out that the young man was
a step-son of the woman he had tak
en to wife. The statute books de
ciare a marriage to be illegal when
contracted between a woman and
her husband's son, but whether this
is void or not, it is the province of
lawyers to say. The question of rc?
lations growing out of this event is
a little curious. Should there beany
children they would be grand-children
to their own mother, and the
boys would lie brothers, and the jrirls
sisters to their own father.

New York, December 28. A
reporter of the Tribune who boarded
the Jtiuiata immediately after her ar
rival, obtained full particulars from a
variety of sources concerning the
treatment received by the prisoners
at the hands of their Spanish captors.
All these reports agree in one partic
ular, namely ; that the treatment re
ceived was uniformly harsh, aud in
some cases barbarous. A fact which
has not generally been known, by
the statement of the prisoners now
comes to light; which is that they
1 1 -
were robbed by the crew of the Tor-
naao, and all who owned anything
were robbed of money, jewelry, watch
es and other valuables. The prison
ers were takeu to the jail of Santiago
soon after their arrival in port there.
They were crowded together like
cattle. Hero their sufferings began.
They were not assigned to seperate
cells, indeed there was no opportu
nity for such confinement iu the con
tracted quarters of the Santiago jail ;
but the entire party of nearly two
hundred were driven iuto a" small
room, hardly fifty feet long and fif
teen feet wide. There they were
obliged to live as best they could,
though the air, of course, was almost
deadly,and there was no opportunity
to exercise. The prisoners were suppli
ed with provisions which, though suffi
cient as regards quantity, were poor in
quality and hardly fit to sustain life.
These provisions consisted almost
wholly of rice and water. One
nrght the prisoneis wero stealthily
taken from jail and marched with
the greatest haste to a point seven
miles below the city, iu the vicinity
of Morro. The road lay through a
rough tract of country, and the jour
ney was most wearisome, while some
of the prisoners were so sick as to be
almost unable tostand. The sufferings
of some of the number were
intense, and no pity was in the
breasts of the Spaniards. At this
point on tho C(-nst they were placed
on board the steamer Bazan, which
at once set sail for Havana. At
Manzunilla it was met by the mail
steamer coming in an opposite .direc
tion. On board the steamer was (Jen.
Burriel, who at once ordered the Ba
zan to return to Santiago. She
turned about but soon after ran
aground, and the passengers were
transferred to another vessel. Here
they suffered horrors heretofore un
known. They were crowded in the
hold of the vessel where scarcely a
ray of sunlight could struggle in.
The air was poison; the darkness al
most continuous; the food they ate
was wretched in quality and insuffi
cient in quantity ; the water they
(trans was what remained in the
buckets after the dumb animals on
board were satisfied. These animals
consisted namely of horses and mules.
They were kept on the deck above
the prisoners, and were thus a con
stant source of anriovanee to the
helpless prisoners confined below. It
is said that in the midst of ail this
filth and suffering, the prisoners were
not allowed to wash while on board
the Bazan, for a period of ten days,
and that their artas were pinioned
behind them the greater part of the
voyage. They were occasionally
beaten on the slightest provocation
and sometimes on none at all. These
punishments, however, seem not to
have been of a nature so serious as
to produce any lasting effects.
Commander Braine said to the
Tribune reporter: "The feeling at
Santiago against Americans is ex
ceedingly bitter, and Vice Consul
Smith is in actual danger of his life.
He has several times been threatened
with assassination, and I think one
of our men-of-war ought be stationed
there Jtrmanently at least till the
feeling subsides, as I hope it will.
Vice Consul Smith was abused most
shamefully iu their daily papers,
and it was only by my personal in
tercession with the Governor that
they were stopped."

reported that there was nobody there,
but that there was a tiring across
the door ou which was suspended
any number of ladies' tmty stockings.
I he astonished Secretary oipl l reasr
urer iookruVci the servant t iljtt-ov-
er whetder or not she had lost her
senses, and finding no trace of a
mind demented, betook himself to
the door, where sur,s enough, he
found the feminine hosiery as de
scribed. I he string on which the
s( kings were suspended was taken
iijto the house, when it was found
that attached to caeli stocking was
the name of a teacher of the public
schools of Georgetown.
"The official scratched his head
and finally came to the conclusion
that the significance of the whole
matter lay in tho hist that, qs the
teachers h"d not received their pay
for three months they had not the
wherewithal to fill their stockings
for Chrisiijias. Finally, he obtained
a him bom some source, that the per
petrators of tho joke were congregat
ed in an adjoining house, upon which
he sent a cordial invitation for the
teachers to make their appearance.
This they did, and were entertained
by tho St'crt tary and Treasurer in ex
cellent style. He explained to them
his inability, owing to ci rag instances
over which he had uo control, to sat'
isfy their claims, and hoped that ero
long they would receive the compen
sation which they had richlv merited !
