4WThe eqnte of the lateXajor Gener
al Henry W. HOlack, of Colifornin, has
been finally settled , in the San Francisco
Probate Court. After deducting the wid
ow's allowance, commissions and costs, the
estate nets the aura of 8430,785 in gold.
About two years ago Mr. Wm. P.
iktach, a rich Philadelphia merchant,
died,./eaving au estate worth 81,000,000..
By the terms of his will he 'left half of
' :this sum to, his wife for . her sole separate
use, and the other half to his daughter,
Anne Gertrude, then a minor, who was
to come into possession of it when she
should attain The twenty-first year of her
age, on March 21st, 1874. In case of
her death before that time, however, the.
share NV hieli she would otherwise have re
ceived was to go to certain public institu
tions and charities of the cit • of Phila.del-_
phia. On Monday last Miss Wilstach
tiled, and• consequently the $500,000
be
queathed to her will go to the institutions
.and charities named by the father's will.
rliirAs far as the General Government
is concerned, 'Decoration day is this year
to be observed, in a measure at least, as
a national commemoration of the depart
ed heroes of the Union, the President hav
ing directed the closiag of the departments
at Washington-on-the-30th-inst i -hroide
to give-the employees of-the-Gcvernment
ample opportunity to participate in the
sadly greatful ceremony of decking with
flowers the graves of the nation's soldiers.
06„The year is yet young, but its re
cord 'of illustrionS dead is already long.—
Abroad, the ex-Emperor Napoleon, Bul
wer, john Stuart Mill, and Liobig have
died, and the Pope lingers on the confines
of the grave,, reported dead one day and
convalescent the nest. The United States
has lost, since the first of January, Chief
Justice Chase, Governor Gear s y, Minister
Orr, Bishop Mcilvaine, Commodore Mau
ry, Joshua Levitt, General Canby, James
Brooks, Oakes Arnes,Mrs. Harrison Gray
Otis, and other prominent men and wo
wen.
*l'Franklin B. Goweu, Esq., one of
the most prominent and able members of
the Constitutional Convention, on the
Democratic side, resigned 'his seat last
week in that body.
Mr. Gowen was one of the few who
openly opposed the extensive salary grab,
and was satisfied, with five hundred "tlel
lars for the members who resided in Phil
adelphia, while he was liberal enough to
pay those from the country one thousand
dollars, the sum for which they had agreed
to serve. His views were, however, not
enfertaieed by the majority, and he de
clines further to act with them as a mem
ber of that body. The salary has been
fixed at $2,500 and"mileage.' .
ItaiL.France has passed through anoth
er revolution, happily there has been no
bloodshed. The Republican party have
seared to 'rave a Majority in the Nation
al Assembly, and Pr es ident Thiers has re
signed. Marshal McMahon, supposed to
be loyal to theßonaparte dynasty, fakes
the place of Thiers, but whether he will
have a working majority of the Assembly
on his side remains to be seen. Should•
any one of the half-dozen anti-Republi
can factions refuse to support him, he will
be left in a minority and compelled to re
sign. Probably his successor will be an
advanceed Republican. The new Presi
dent has not yet indicated his policy, and
has not said anything concerning the form
of government which he prefers. With
the assistance of the army he has profilis
ed to preserfe peace, which all the world
will be glad to hear.
VERSA' Lts, May 26.—M. Dull - tyre han
ded to Buffet, President of the Assembly
a message from President Thiel; announc
ing that he delivers back to the Assembly
the high inactions which had been con
ferred upon him. The left moved that
the resignation of Thiers be nut accepted.
This motion was rejected by a vote of 168
to 339. ' The resignation of President
Thiers was then accepted.
A vote was then taken, :tad it resulted
in the election of Marshal McMahon, who
received 390 cots. The Deputies of the

FURTHER PAPVICULARS.
Washington,, ,may 23.—A terrific torna
do or whiriwine accompanied by hail and
rain passed over this country, about six
mite north u - f_Waslaington, yesterday af
ternoon, Its path was about half a mile.
in width, and it tore into fragments every
thing in its . course. Hone* barns, fen
ces, trees, cattle and human beings were
caught up and whirled through - the air
like mere toys, and then dashed'to' the
ground with such violence as to produce.
instant destruction. Houses and barns
were torn into fragments and scattered in
all directions, and for miles around the
fields are dotted with large timbers driven
into the ground at an angle of ninety de
grees. Cattle were actually driven head
foremost into the ground: One can scar
cely conceive the devastation, or realize
the force of the tornado.
Already we have heard of thirteen farm
houses and barns that were literally torn
to pieces, and many others badly damag
ed. School was in session at the school
house six miles north of here, and the tor
nado tore the building to pieces and car
ried a fourteen year old daughter of Hen
ry Rothmel abouta quarter of a' mile
from the school. When found 'she was
crushed to a jelly. ; Miss Smith, the teach
er, and six or eight of the seholars were
injured, some of them severly. The wife
Henry Walters was killed. A Miss Gard
ner and a son of Abe Gibson lie at the
point of death. Jacob Seek was serious
ly hurt. A Mr. Baker was hurt in the
back.
The family of J. Campbell, near gents,
era injur 1 Airs. McCoy was seriously
hurt. •
A gentleman who was near the tornado
reports thatit was baloon.shaped, with
the small end to the ground, and moved
at the rate of twenty miles an hour. It
began its fearful work near Keats, where
it demolished several houses. - We next
hear of it about six miles northwest where
it destroyed two or three houses, and as
it passed on northwest scattered to the
four winds five residences, and the barns of
Alexander Gibson, J. A. Babcock and J.
C. Collingham. It also levelled to the
ground the dwellings of D. Cancer, F.
.and H. Walters, Mr. Carringer and Mr.
Kerr.... The lives of many persons were
saved by Aheir hastily getting lute the cel
lars of their houses. Sad hum was made
with all kinds of stock.
From the description of an eye-witness
it seems almost a miracle that anything
in its track escaped alive. lie says he
could see large pieces of timber burled
fromt , tht--storm cloud as though shot from
a canon.
Hail atones fell that meassured nine in
ches in diameter. [Probably the report
er means circumferenck] Some were bro't
to this city,. and four hours after they
were picked up they were still as large as
hen's eggs.
The roaring of the tornado was fearful,
and could easily have been heard ten
miles. At this place, six miles away, it
was perfectualy appalling, surpassing any
thing ever heard, except war and • the din
of . a
terrific battle. . . • • •
A. telegram from. Keota last evening
says that five persons were killed about
3 miles from that place. One chid was
torn to pieces.
.The reports received thus far are from
only a few points along the line of the
terrible destroyer, and the amount of dam
age cannot be estimated, but it must be
many thousand &liars.
Many more lives were prbably lost
than those reported, and no estimate can
be made of the stock killed.
Nothing so terrible or violint has ever
befallen this section of the country, and
it is considered a miracle that so few liv
es were lost.
THE LIQUOR TRADE.—The - organ of
the liquor interest in New York has tak
en pains to collect and group all the facts
connected with the - trade in this country.
The amount of tax on spirits colieetedby
the United States in /872 was $49,475,-
516,36. This . represents about 100,000,-
000 gallons, worth at wholesale $85,000,-
09, but which brought, at retail, about
'5317,000,000. This .aggregates a money
interest of over $400,000,000. The beer
,trade pays a tax to government of 08,-
573,498.45. This represents a retail val
ue of over 4521209,000, which added to,
the value of the artiole to the manufae

presents a retail value otliquors of $27,-
000,000; of beer, $2',800;000:;Yof wines
$135,000,000; or a total of nearly up,-
000,000. Added t. all this-the capita/
invested in building and machinery, etc.,
together with the expenses connected di - -
rectly with the trade, the footing is at

Auprrons ligPotTr.—The Report of
the .Township Auditors which we lately
published did not prove satisfactory.—
Several farmers have complained to us a
bout it, alleging that the report was too
meager and unsatisfactory. In other town
ships of the county the statements pub
lished are more extended, all bills of ex
penses, etc. being itemized.' This we pre
suine our auditors did not deem necessa
ry, though it was certainly -very' impor
tant.
THE WEAntuß.—The weather for the
past week has been all that Farmers cov
eted, warm and dry, which has enabled ,
them to make eonsideiable headway with
the work of corn-planting. With condo
ned dry weather the close of the present
week will finish the work pretty general
ly. The warm sunshine of the past week
has wrought a marked change for the bet
ter in the appearance of both grain and
grass fields. The wheat is now heading,
and gives promise—if not blighted by
weevil or mildew—of a bountiful yield.

*Decoration Day falls on to-morrow
(Friday.) Wherever the remains of any
considerable number of soldiers of the late
civil war have been deposited arrange
ments have been made for the .usual sol
emn and beautiful• ceremonies of strewing
flowers, etc: over the dust of. the gallant
dead. Of those who fell on the gory fields
of the late wicked and brutal rebellion
our town grave-yards contain the remains
of a dozen or more as gallant "boys in
blue" perhaps as ever shouldered a mus
ket or unsheathed a saber. Though the
number be small some token of respect to
the deceased on this particular occasion
is none the less a' duty. Let us then in .
some form, however simple, add some tes
timonial of respect for our dead soldier
friends, that the memory of the gallant
part they bore in the conflict of arms may
not die but grog green as Decoration
Days succeed one another in the far-off
future. The time is short it is true, but
yet ample for necessary preparations.—
We are not advised of any arrangements
for the occasion, and hence volunteer thii
suggestion. •
SERIOUS Accuaror.—On Monday of-_
ternoon last Jacob Fisher, a young man
25 or 26 yea' s old, met with a serious acci
dent between Quincy and Mt. Alto. He
was on his way, to Mont Alto Iron Works
with a wagon load of coal. In reaching
to touch the oil:wheel horse with the whip
one wheel caught his foot *rowing him
down, the wagon passing over him, mash
ing his foot and breaking the thigh bone
of one leg. Dm. Snively, Ripple and
Bouebrake were sent for and rendered the
necessary attendance. He was carried on
a stretcher to the Mont Alto Iron Works,
and at latest accounts was doing as well
as could be expected under the circum
stances. He is said to be a man of indus
trious and steady habits.
SENTENCED.—Espy S. Miller, a mail
agent on the Southern Penna. Railroad,
who, it will be remembered, was arrested
some time ago, for opening and detaining
letters that was being conveyed thro' the
postal departrhent, was brought before
the U. S. Court last week, at Philadel
phia and plead guilty, and made a full
confession. He told the Judge that he
had studied for the ministry, and had been
led int ) theset crimes by various misfor
tunes. His Honor sentenced him to the
Eastern Penitentiary for three years, say
ing that if any one would give him em
ployment for one year, six months would
be deducted from the term.
Mn. Enrrort :—The manner of publish
ing the statement by the retiring Town
Council is very satisfactory,
.and citizens
universally compliment them for giving
to the public a full report of the financial
condition of the, Borough.
The tax-payers call on the School Board
to make and publish in the newspaper a
detailed statement of their expenses, in
debtedness, &c. People do not object to
paying for information on such matters of
importance to all our citizens.

.a week ago it degenerated into a pur
suit' after scattered parties of the lately
compact little body of savages. The at
team which have been made upon them,
although not immediately successful, have
prOved ultimately so by driving them
from refuge to ref lie until at last, defeat:
ed and discouraged,, they sought safety in
indiscriminate flight. The last fight with
the troops took the heart out of a dozen
of the warriors—those belonging to the
Hot Spring band—and on Thursday they
came intosGen.Davis' camp to surrender
themselves unconditionally. Among them
are some dozen of the rascab with the
outrageous names who have been canspic
uous in the conflict. As many more were
killed during the fighting and many oth
ers woilnded. The telegraphic reports
give .a graphic picture of the scene when
these poor wretches, with their women and
children, after parleying with the inter
preters accompanying the troops, dragged
themselves into the presence of the army,
yielding up their arms and sat down in
stubborn, conquered silence. Successful
as' they had been for a while, yet they
were ultimately compelled to surrender
to the prowess and patience of their foes.
But they hardly seem to appreciate the
fate in store for them, for they asked to
he taken to see the Great Father at Wdsh
ington, after the manner of other warriors
who have been paraded around the coun

but he can have but a very small num
ber of men wiloh him in his flight. Besides
those who have surrendered, the Cotton.
wood, Indians have propably deserted him,
and left him with only-a few of those who
lately seemed to bid defiance in their rocky
stronghold to all force that could be bro't
against them. • Tragic as the warfare has
been from thd beginning, it is a l satisfac
tion to know that it has been brought to
a conclusion, and that no more valuable
lives will be sacrificed to punishl the say

COUGHS AND Coims.4—There - are few•
persons aware of the importance of attend
ing to' a cough' or cold at its first appes.rance..
The thousands who die. annually of con
sumption, were first attacked with a "slight"
cough or cold, which they thought would
soon "wear" itself off, and therefore neglec
ted to use the .proper remedies until they.
became incurable.
Eveiy day that a cough, cold or any lung:
disegse is neglected, makes the chances of
a cure• more uncertain. We would recom
mend all suffering from disease of the Lungs
whatever to use HASSON'S COMPOUND.
SYRUP OF TAR. It never fails' in curing
the worst cases of coughs, colds, hoaseness,
sore throat, catarrh and asthma. It is an
infallible remedy for 'looping Cough. Be-.
big prescribed by some of the leading phy
sicians in the Northern and Southern States
and being prepared' under the immediate
Super Vision of a graduate of the Pennsylva
nia Medical College. The proprietors beg
leave to inform all that it, is no "Q k"•
preparation, but made strickly in accord-.
ante with the advanced principles and the
ory of medicine. •
