Tj' fact that large quantities
whiokey bare been lately placed upon
the market at New York and New
. Orlear.", at prices below the tax nd
cost cf production, induces the de
partment to believe tLat an immense
amount of illicit delation has been
carried on at the West and South,
and active efforts are being made to
discover tLe source of its manufac
ture. The tew P-emocratic Auditor Gen
eral, Temple, Las appointed bis law
partner chief clerk, aad bis son-in-law
corporation clerk. These are
the two bet paying clerkships ia tbc
department, aad we suppose the re.-d.
of tLe family ureto be put in the oth

considered a cri.r.c when the Demo

tley get in, the thanps in circum

now on!v in Grant.
Here we have it outspoken and
right from the bcirt. Tbc St. Louis

"To-day we firmly believe a vast ma

Akother sudden and bloody rev-1
olution has broken out in Hayti. 1
Domicgue was elected President of
the Republic last June, bis term be
ing eight years. But the disorderly
cUmen'.j constantly at work among
the Haytians seem to have combined
to overturn bim quickly. Of the
slaughter which attended the oat

I"w Haytian rulers bave been for
tunate enough to complete their term

tory , tboegh unexpected, will not
surprise those who pay any attention
to the stupid politics of that stupid
regiou.
The removal of Hon. J. W. Doug
lass, Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue, appears to have been as much
of a surprise to' that gentleman as it
was to the country at large. Mr.
Douglass Las been assured by the
Secretary of the Treasury that bis
resignation was not desired because
of any imputations affecting Lis per
sonal or official integrity. It it as
Fumed, therefore, that some political
object is to be accomplished by the
movement. Ex-U. S. Senator Pratt,
of Indiana, who is to eocceed Mr.
Pooglasa, is a gentleman of high rep
utation for integrity and business ca
pacity. The politicians are commenting
much, en the fact that four important
positions have been conferred upon

Las-t week the Pennsylvania Rail

dividend of four, instead of the
usual five per cant., and a tumble ia
the value of the stock or that compa
ny immediately followed. We ob
serve that all the Philadelphia papers
are laboring bard to prove that it was
Fimply as a mostrr stroke of policy,
and not from lack of means that the
dividend was this year reduced, j
bile it is very good policy not to
pay out more inoney than you have
got, yet f: is net good policy to as-!
sign a false reason for a compulsory
act. The naked truth it that ia its
'efforts to crush the Baltimore & Ohio !

Reliable data of the amount of
gold bullion derived frem the celc-
bratcd Comstock Lode in Nevada
has lately been obtained by the au
Kt critics at Washington. Ia obedi
CQce to instructions Professor Sthir
nier, of tbc Denver Mint, visited Vir-
j ginia City ia March last, and after a
iiuoroun examination estimates inai
1.1 l
tte probable productioaof the Com
stock Lode for 1ST5 will be $35,000,-
000, and for 1S7C $50,000,000
The yield of the California and
Consolidated Virginia mines, alone,
according to Prof. Schirmer's esti
mate, wiil be at the rate of $3,000,'
000 per month, as soon as the addi
tiocal millioe canacitv. now in the
course of erection, shall be complet
ed. The Belcher, Crown Point, and
Consolidated Virginia, the three great
mines of the Comstock Lode, bave
yielded during the forty -eight months
ending March 31, ISIrV, $50,233,470.
Prof. Schirmer's estimates of the
yield of the Comstock lode will in
crease the annual bullion product of
the United States for this year to
$35,000,000, and for the next year to
$100,000,000. The bullion yielded
by the Comstock is known to com
merce aa "dore silver," or silver con
taining tufScient gold to defray the
expense of separating the metals. Its
average weight is abeut Dioc-tentba,
and its value about sixty per cent, sil
ver. The weight of the bullion to
be dissolved in acid in order to sepa
rate the two metals will be about

The Philadelphia correspondent of
tbe New York Tribune, writing con
cerning tbe political situation in Pcoa
slyvania, with especial reference to
tbe fall election, concedes that Gen
eral ITartranft will be the only candi
date for Governor before the Repub
lican State Convention which meets
at Lancaster on the 2Ctb inst He
further conceds that Governor Hart
raaft Las not only lived down tbe
slanders that were set afloat against
bim when first nominated for the dis
tinguished position he now holds, bat
that be discharges tbe onerous duties
f his office with integrity, energy,
intelligence and dignity. All which
is eminently true and complimentary
to tbe intelligence of the Tribune's
corretpondent.
If a candidate
less strong in the
affections and respect cf the citizens
ot Pennsylvania than General Hart-
ranft were put torward by the Lan
caster convention to contest the Geld
with the Democratic nominee for
Governor, it is possible that the oppo
sition might be respectable, or even
formidable. But the advantages ttr
the Republican party of nominating
General nartranft will be to paralyze
the opposition and to record an over
whelming victory, which will be of
ioestimable benefit to tbe party ia the
more important contest of 1S7C,
Governor, Hartrauft has adminis
tered the affairs of Lis great office so
honestly, wisely and well as to have
made tbe call for his re-election to be
more than a mere party one. In fact,
party lines will be largely broken
down at the fall election, for it is not
only tbe Republicans, but the people,
without party distinction, who de
mand that Governor Hartraaft shall
be LU own successor. Every citizen
having an interest in good govern
ment is concerned that tbe govern
ment of Hartranft shall Le continued.
Cbaagea are not always desirable,
and there could be no greater folly
than to make a change whHi would

A Terrible Mntl7 at Sen.
London, May 9. Further particu
lars of the mutiny on the schooner
Jefferson Borden show that it began
on the 20th of April, when the ves
sel was a thousand miles from Eng
land, the leader was a seaman named
Miller, a native of Tinland. He
called the captain at midnight, saving
a man had broken bis leg. This

the npper band, retired to the deck
house, in which they were nailed op
by the captain and steward. Forty
shots were fired at tho mutineers
before they surrendered. It was
thirty hours from the beginning o
the outbreak beture tho last man
surrendered. Tho captain had bis
wife oa board. Miller, the ringleader
of the mutiny, was p?ticcd ia irons
for misconduct just after the schooner
Failed from New Orleans. He after
wards apologized for his conduct.
He confesses that he killed the Crst
mate.
On the arrival of the schooner
Jefferson Borden at her dock to-day
she wa3 boarded, and full details of J
the mutiny were obtained. It seems
that an American sailor namca
Smith struck the first blows. He
knocked down and killed the second
mate, who was in charge of the
watch. lie then awakened the first
mate. As the latter came out of
the cabin he was felled by Miller and
thrown overboard. All this time
their captain, Patterson, was asleep.
He was aroused by Miller, who
shouted down the gangway that a
man bad broken his leg. Looking
around be observed that the bunks of
the mates were empty, suspecting
mischief he armed himself with re- j
volvera and went on deck, no ,
was immediately assailed by the
mutineers with missies, lie opened
fire and they retreated, and finely
took refuge in the deck bouse, where
he besieged tnem an enure aay. ne

they refused to surrenuer unm uiguw
Miller, after receiving Cve bullets in
bis leers and two in the body, at
length offered to yield with bis com
panions, and all were secureu.
The English sailor, whose name is
lew. received two bullets beneath
the ribs, and will probably die.
Smith was wounded in the wrist
and Ehoulder. lie was chained to
the pump aad suffers severely from
ague, contracted irom exposure.
The captain, steward, boy and one
sailor worked the snip seven days
before assistance was obtained from
passing vessels. The Crst mate was
the captain's brother, and the second
mate his cousin, lhcmutinee.rs as
sert their only object was revenge,
for ill treatment. The rest of the
crew deny that the men bad been
ill-treated, and Captain Patterson
declares tbey intended to palndcr

A Valuable Moutnfnl.
Yesterday morning, Edward Wat
son, a burglar and sharper, whose
picture adorns the Rogues' Gallery
at Tolice Head-quarters, accompa
nied by John U. Ranfit, a man un
known to the police,entered the store
of Barmore & Co., dealers in dia
monds and fine jewelry, at the corner
of Maiden lane and Nassau street.
Under the pretense that they desire!
to make purchases, they induced one
of the salesmen to show them a tray
containing a number of diamond
rings. While the men where exam
ining the goods the salesman missed
a solitaire diamond of fine quality,
weighing 3 carats, set in a Ekelcton
setting, and at once Euspecting the
character of his pretended customers,
charged them with the theft of the
ring which was valued at $1,000.
Of course they indignantly denied
the accusation, but the salesman, sat
isfied that one of tbe men bad stolen
tbe valuable jewel, detained them
and sent for Patrolman Terry. On
tbe appearance of the policeman
Ranfit demanded that he be searched,
and the diamond was not found in
his possession. Watsoa refused to
submit to a search ia the store, say
ing that be would have to undergo
tbe same ordeal at the station-house,
and one search was sufficient. . The
men were then placed in custody,
and Officer Terry started with tbeci
for the New Street Police station.
While on the way to, the station
house Watson 6uddenly put bis
handkerchief to his mouth and was
noticed to gulp a) though swallowing
something. Whatever it was it cost
bim a great effort to swallow it, al
most choking bim. His face turned
red and tears came into bis eyes.
There is scarcely a doubt that what
Weston swallowed, was the ring
which be had purloined from the
store, as a thorough search of his
person and clothing at the station
bouse failed to reveal its uresenec.
The prisoners were arraigned,. before
Justice Sherwood at the Tombs Po
lice Court where a charge of grand
larceny was preferred against them,
and they wtre cemmitted for examin
ation in default of $2,500 bail each.

Plymouth Mass., May 7. Wil
liam E. Sturtevant, the triplo mur
derer, was hanged this morning, in
the county jail yard. To the last
moment tbe doomed man maintained
the composure and stolidity, which
bad characterized bim threoghut,
and was apparently unmoved by
any conception of the possible bor
refs of the fature. The arrangements
for the execution were perfect, and
from a professional point of view it
was a complete j suecess.! The' old
style of scaffuld, with its platform
and drop, was discarded 1n this case,
aad the more modern arrangement . of
pulleys aad n eights was adopted,
by which the body is jerked into the
afrby the momentum of a falling
weight attached to the other ead of
the rope. This wrs the Crst occasion
oa which this instrument, bad ever
been used in this State. , !
A large number of Sheriffs of differ
ent counties of tho State were ia at
tendance, with a view of witnessing
the experiment Tbe prisoner took
a farewell leave of bis wife and chil
dren last evening, since .which time
he has seen no one but prison officials.
He retired about half-past 9 o'clock,
and slept soundly and undisturbed
until G o'clock this morning. Owing
to tbe expressed determination to
take his own life, a double guard has
been pal over bim, and . bis s every
movemeni was under the strictest
surveillance. At half-past 6 o'clock
he breakfasted with as much appa
rent zeat as though preparing for a
mere pleasure trip. He conversed
but little, arrayed himself in a plain
black suit carefully, brushed hid hair
and at S o'clock bad the air; of one
all ready and waiting. The B.cr.
Edward Hathaway, prison chaplain,
was with bim, but to all bis efforts to
turn bis attention to tbe subject of
moral accountability,, repentance - or
spiritual salvation, he made tbe same
replv, "lou know nothing more tnan
I what remains in the future. At
9 o'clock tho reporters and a few
others were admitted to tbo corridor
of the jail, and Sturtevant was led
out to listen to the last services of
tbo chanlain. He seated himself
j directly in front, tilted back bis chair,
i and with one hand partially support
ling bis head, submitted to the ser
vice more as a necessary lngreuient
of the execution than something in-
tended in niercy and kindness for
him farewell with deep emotion. He
alluded to tho fact oi their irreconcil
able difference on religions topics,
and omitted any special exhortation.
After reading Scriptures and prayer
Mr. Hathaway addressed tho prisoner
in general terns. While feeling al-
lusioa was made to Lis wife and
children, Boon to be a widow and
orphans, not tbo slightest emotion
was visible. , His countenance defied
scrutiny. At ten minutes of 10
o'clock all but the prison officials
were excluded and final preparation
was made. Tho prisoner's arms
and wrists were pinioned with strong
leather straps aad the black cap
was placed upon Lis bead, bnt not
drawn down over the face however.
Promptly at ten o'clock Sturtevant
was led out to tbe scaffold, .walking
with a firm step tbe fifty feetor more
that separated biui from death.
Stepping upon the flatform, which
was but a few inches from the ground,
be faced th crowd still without emo
tion. As the noose-was placed over
his bead be moved it to one side, as
if anxious to expedite - the business.
The Sheriff's assistants quickly ar
ranged the prisoner, and to the in
quiry whether he desired to say any
thing, the prisoaer pleasantly replied:
". -"NOTHING VUATEVER." f :
The Sheriff then read the warrant,
and shaking hands with tbe prisoner,
commended bim to a merciful , Sav
iour. ' Straps were then placed about
his ankles and knees, the cap drawn
down, and instantly the Sheriff touch
ed tbe spring and the murderer was
in a twinkle pulled into the air. The
body was jerked up about five feet.
Tbe neck was not broken and death
ensued from strangulation.
. Sturtevant was convicted of mur
dering Thomas and Simon Sturte

domestic, on the 15th of February,

cumstantial evidence played the most
important part. I he murdered mca
were relatives of the condemed, who

Deaperate llnrataater with a Robber.
A most daring aad desperate at
tempt was made yesterday morning
to rob ao express car oa tbe Pitts
burgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad. Tbe train was the Pacific
express, eastward bound. Tbc point
at which the robber attempted to
carry out his purpose was somewhere
between Forest and Lima. The ex
press car was ia charge of Messen
ger Price. About three o'clock Price
was surprised by the appearance of
a man at tbc rear end of his car, who
summoned him to rurrender, and at
the same instant fired on bim with a
revolver. Two shots were fired by
the intruder in rapid succession.
One ball passed tbreugh tbe arm aud
cheek, of the messenger. The .latter
immediately retreated to the front of
bis car, seized his revolver and re
turned the fire with an aim bo precise
and stea'dy that his ball took effect ia
the forebead'of bis assailant, t killing
bim instantly. : ;. ! a
The would-be-robber- for such Ito
undoubtedly was gained admission
to the car by sawing a panael out of
tue door, lie was closely, masked,
and had a rope hanging on bis arm
with a noose at tbe end and a ' coup
ling block in Lis Land. Vrhe rope
wa3 a portion of the bcH-cord tut
from the surplus at the rear of the
car..-Ho had. evidently 'expected to
surprise the messenger while asleep
and tie bim, but finding bim a the
alert, resolved to murder bim ia or
der to carry cut hU purpose of rob
bery. . I ;: " ..- ;
After the shooting tbe :messeneer
rang tbe bell and stopped the train,
wnon several porters on the f-Wpmg
cars acd breakmen, wh had Lard
the reports of tbe pistols, ran forward.
It was with great difficulty, however,
that Messenger Price-was persuaded
to open bis car, as be feared tLe rob
ber bad accomplices on tho train.
Tbe car was finally opened and a
hasty examination made, when tbe
train came oa to Crestline,' where the
dead robber was unmasked and
looad to be Hiram C. Biackley," of
Fort Wayne. He was formerly a
freight conducter oo the road, but
was discharged last week, having
been detected in the act of stealing
goods from a train which had ' been
wrecked. An examination of the car
showed that a panel had been - cut
.... . .
cut out of the door of tbe rear part
of tbe ear, and some oats, which had
been piled op against tho door, re
moved. Tbe body of tbo man was
placed in charge of the Coroner at
Crestline. Trice surrendered him
self into-lh cunody of the authori
ties at Crestline, and Mr. McLean,
another messenger, brought the "run"
to this city. Thp .safo . in tbc car
contained abaut. half a million dol
lars. ,
Tbe car, upon its arrival la this
city yesterday, was examined by
large eirowds cf people. Tho rear
end of tbc car was filled with oats
in sacks, which were sent from Cin
cinnati fori the company horses in
New Vork lity.' TLe sacks were
piled - two deep against tL rcwr. door
of tbe car. The, robber cr rubbers,
with a chisel or hatchet, Lrtke the
woodwork around ibciowcr panel of
this door in order to niakeaa openmg
for the hand saw. This was accom
plished, when tbe lower panel was
sawed squarely out of the door, the
pieces falling inside cf tbe car. The
saw also cut the sacks lying against
the door.
Mr. George II. Price, the messen
ger, has been but a Ebort time on
the run between Chicago and this
city, aad is, we believe, a resident of
Cincinnati. He was editor of the
Ejrpreas Messenger, a monthly pub
lication devoted to the interests of
those engaged in tbe business. -
Binckley, it is supposed, had . two
accomplices, as two men were ob
served jumping from the train- about
the time the firing was beard. The
deceased waa a married man, and
leaves a wife and family at Fort
Wayne. I '
A Dispatch from Cre3tliuo states
that the body of Binckly was yester
day returned to tbc authorities of
Allen county, at Lima.
Messenger Price was not danger
ously wounded, and brought his car
through to Mansfield, Ohio, the res
idence of the Route Agent. W. H.
Damsel Esq., who provided a fresh
messenger for tho car eastward from
that point, and took charge of bis
wounded nie3.5enger.-iWscrr7 Com

Wilksbarre, May 3. Last night
was and exciting one in the mining
regions around Kingston. A pro
cession of from 50 to 100 miners with
torches and armed with guns, revol
vers and clubs marched to the dwel
lings of the men who are working in
Hutchison & Payne's mine and gave
them notice to quit work or the pen
alty would be death
The gang were very noisy and
threatening, but did not damage any
buildiog or maltreat any person.
They carried with them tbe effegy
of a blackleg, which they took to a
grove, where it was hanged by the
neck to a tree, and tbe crowd emptied
their firearms at it. The result has
been that Payne's men refused to
return to work this morning. Three
of Hutchinson's men, while on their
way to the shaft, wqre followed by a
gang of women and children and
pelted with stones until they were
forced to seek safety in flight.
Mr Tarrish is carrying out bis
word in regard to tbe Sugar Notch
mines. The pumps and machinery
from Nos. 9 and 10 were removed to
day. It has no effect upon tbe. men
They laugh at the idea of being forc
ed to yield a3 long as assistance
comes so easily as it has so far.
The constable into whose hands
tbe warrantor the arrest of the per
sons who beat McDado were, placed
was unable to serve tbem to-day.
To-morrow a pi. se will accompany
bim, and serious trouble is expected
A miner from that section, named
Thomas, who bad teen a ringleader
in the intimidation, was arrested to
day and is now in jail.
The men at tbe upper Wyoming
region are anxious to bave the strike
continued here for two reasons : It
makes more work there and if the
Lehigh and Wilkesbarre companies
are compelled to advance the prices
all the others will also. The works
of the Delaware, Lackawanna, West-
era and Pennsylvania coal . compa
nies are notr run at their full capaci
ty. The miners of this section will
hold a meeting ro-morrow to consid
er the situation. .

The Coal Region.
PoVrsviLLHf, May i. There
no new developments regarding
strike to report to-day, though
are
the
it is
generally thought it will not last long
er tban May 15, or June 1. Business in
other branches is very dull, and many
merchants, who have been trustiug
the miners and assisting them, cannot
continue busiaess much longer. Al
ready a number are on the verge of
bankruptcy, and iaformatioa receiv
ed from a reliable source states that
the Sheriff has tbe properties of many
in priat, and prepared to post .them
for public sale
An early adjustment
of tbe dificulties is their only salva
tion. The men continue quiet, ex
cepting a few localities in tbe upper
regions, where trains have been
stoned, and one. special policeman,
while doing duty on a train, was
severely wouaded in tho neck. Some
cars bave also run off by misplaced
switches and obstructions placed on
track, though no damage was done.
Yesterday a number of additional
policemen were placed cn duty by
the railroad c mpany. Snow fell
here at intervals to-day.
Tbe Xarseftt Wooden Bridge In
World Earned.
the
HoRXEits ville, N. Y., May C
Portage Bridge, thirty milts north of
here, on tbe Hornersville and Attica
Branch of the Eric Railway, said to
have been the largest structure of
its kind in the world, was buruedlast
night. The destruction of the bridge
will cause no interruption whatever
to through travel over the Erie Rail
way, there being three tbrouadi route3
besides. The Company will at nce
proceed to replace the wooden bridge
with a substantial iron structure.
Ia consequence of tbe burning of the
bridge, trains coming wesf, on the
Erie road will leave the main line at .
Coring via Bath, to Avon, to At
tica, and going east wiil branch off at
Attica, to Coring, and on to the
main line. Railroad oGicials are
taking active measures for the work
of reconstruction. The bridge was
commenced on April tbe 1st, ISol,
and was completed August 24tb,
1852. Tbe timber used in its con
struction was 1,800,W)0 feet and
cost $1S0,000. - Since the completion
of the bridge a sum equal to the orig
inal cost has beea expended ia re
pays, the original timbers being all
replaced by new ones, the bridge so
constructed as to replace old with
new timbers without interfering with
its construction.
