EQUALIZING iTAYATION
The reople of the two cities are beginning
to turn their attention seriously to the sub
ject of having the taxes equalized, as assess
ed upon property in the city and country dis
tricts. As the assessments are now made,
great injustice is done to property holders in
the cities. The country people do the larger
share of the grumbling at high taxes, while
the two cities pay about two-thirds of the en
tire taxation of the county. It is an un
doubted fact that more money is expended
about the Court House and in the country dis•
tricts for county purposes, than the districts
outside the cities pay. This could not be
complained of were the assessments of the
taxes at all equal, but they are not. It two
pieces of property are taken, one in the city
and one in the country, of equal cash value,
the taxes upon the city property are at least
three times those upon the country property.
A slight examination of the books in the
Commissioner's office will convince any one
who understands figures, that the burthen of
county taxation is placed upon the property
in the cities, while, in a measure, the county
districts go scot free. Yet if the oitiesrequire
any expenditure of the county funds for le
gitimate public purposes, a hue and cry is at
once raised, and the extravagance of the cities
is condemned in the bitterest terms. The
cities will not much longer consent to pay the
lion's share of the taxes, and they should not.
We shall have someting more to say upon
this subject in a-few days. .
Sheriff In Phllettlphin.
On Thursday the Democratic Convention in
Philadelphia on the Thirteefith ballot nomio
nated G. C. Berrill as the Democratic candid
date for sheriff. The contest was a warm
one. -On the twelfth ballot, the vote stood
Berril, 99, Ewing, 99, on the thirteenth Ber
ril hadilo4, Ewing 96.
Texai
Partial returns of the election in this State
leave the result of the choice of Supreme
Court Judge in considerable doubt: the veto
between Buckley (Democratic nominee) and
Bell, (Independent). In about half the
State, Bell, (not ex-Gov. Bell, leads the regu
lar nominee some 1400 votes. The party
candidates for other State officers have no op
position.
THE True Press styles the report of Mr.
Thomas' Williams' speech in the Convention
f (
" a burlesque." The performances of a
mountebank us
_ally have a tendency to the
burlesque. Th True Press has a very just
appreciation o the character of Mr. Wily
liams' speech.
MAJOR M'ILHENNY, of the Commissioners
office, requests us to inform the editor of the
Dispatch that, if he has got a 4 ' free pass "
on the railroad he don't spend his time in
travelling, but stays at home and attends to
his duties, and that he never bet hie beard on
the election and lost it, as the editor of the
Dispatch did.
THE papers are advising their readers to
"look out for Wisconsin money." We must
prefer to look out for money whioh is worth
something
THE report that the legal editor of the True
Piers has invented a machine to take the
noise out of thunder is contradicted.
Reform in Criminal Law.
Lord Campbell is about to introduce into
the British Parliament, a bill dispensing
with the practice of requiring a trczninrous
verdict from a jury. He does not prop ose
the majority principle ; but he wishes to get
rid of the practice of tampering with a jury
by placing one man npon it to hold out
against - all the others. He desires that if, af
ter certain deliber,ation by the jury, they all
agree, except one or two, the verdict of
those that had agreed, should bo as the ver.
diet of the whole twelve, subject, howewe, to
be reviewed, and if necessary, set asitle.—
This would tend completely to break up the
practice of packing juries, or increase• the
risks, by making it necessary to bribe more
than one of - the jurors.

Likeness of Judge Portar.
W. A. Gildenfenny & Co. have placed us
under obligations for an admirably executed
lithographic portrait of Hon. Wm. A. Perter,
of the Supreme Bench of our State. It is
lithographed by Sinclair, of Philadelphia,
and published by T. B. Peterson & Co. Judge
Porter is one of the handsomest men in the
State, and this picture is a capital representa
tion of him. Gildenfenny has copies of it
for sale.

Last Week Dr. lii. T. Child delivered a lee•
tutu in Philadelphia upon the subject of the
Atlantic Telegraph. We gather from it some
interesting dates and facts, which are worth
preserving. The doctor referred to Frank
lin, who had commenced to reply to Heaven's
question to Job, " Can't thou send the light
nings, that they may go, and say unto thee,
here we are?" then entered upon the philoso
phy of human discoveries, and noticed the
number of claimants for every important in.
vention. This introduced the history of the
telegraph W,od, of England,
discoverei it in 17'26. W inkier, of Leipsic,
in 17-46, discharged a Leyden iar through a
wire, the river Pleis formin, , , a part of the
circuit.
Dr. Watsci, in England, in 1747, extended
the experiment to four miles, and suggested
the Telegraph by Electricity. Dr. Franklin,
in 1746, set fro t,. spirits by an electric cur
rent cent across the Schuylkil. In 1784,
Lomond, of France, telegraphed to a neigh
b3ring room by using pitch balls. In 1798,
Betancourt established an electric telegraph
between Madrid and Arangues, twenty-six
miles. In 1816, Dr. John Redmond Cox, of
Philadelphia, proposed to establish an eke_
trio telegraph. In 1819, Oersted, of Copen
hagen, invented the electromagnetic fluid,
by which telegraphing is accomplished. In
18:1 , Prof. Henry, now of Washington, form
ed magnets of great power, without which it
is impossible at present to telegraph, In
182,2, Baron Sehilling, of Russia, made a tel
egraph by striking a bell. In in
'England, Cook and Wheatstone took out their
patent, In October, of the same year, Prof.
S. F. B. Morse, of New York, entered his ca
veat for an electromagnetic telegraph.
In 1844, the first telegraph lino was built,
from Washington to Baltimore ; Congress ap
propriated $30,000 for the purpose. In 1845,
a line was run from New York, through Phil
adelphia„to Wilmington, Delaware. In ten
years the combined length of lines was great
er than the globe's circumference.
In 1846, .John J. Craven, of Newark, N.-
.J., covered wires with guttapercha, and used
them in a creek between Elizabeth City and
Newark. In 1850, the first submarine cable
was deposited from England to France, twen
ty-four miles. Since then various other lines
have been submerged, amounting to 2862
miles in all.
Yellow lever In New York
The New York papers state that a good
deal.of excitement prevails in the vicinity of
Staten Island, on account of the prevalence
of yellow fever at the Quarantine station.—
On Wednesday a committee reported that the
fever had broken out in three localities near
the hospital, and that twene3Nthree cases of
well marked yellow fever had occurred, fifteen
of them traceable to infection from clothing,
SLe. The health officer is charged with the
most criminal carelessness.
St. Fraucin College, Loretto
The fall and winter session of this most
excellent institution will commence on the
first of September. We have a personal
knowledge of the high character of th's insti
tution, and have no hesitation in recumending
it as one of the best educational institutions
in the country. Its reputation as a first (lass
college rests upon a solid foundation. The
excellence of the euurs, of instruction given,
as well as the peculiar healthfulness of the
location of the institution on the top of the
Allegheny Mountains, strongly recommend it
to the favorable consideration of parents and
guardians. The halls and class rooms are
roomy and commodious, and have recently
been enlarged. The institution has now the
power to confer degrees, and is in all respects
equal to any college in the State.
'Flee iNtllle.ntsport Encampmcnt.
The Williamsport Press states that the
ground selected for the encampment, which
is to be held at that place,.:September 7th,
contains one hundred and thirty acres, and is
on the farm of ion. IL. U. Grier, one mile west
of 'Williamsport. It is generally believed
that this will be the largest encampment ever
held in the United States.
A Queer S India
Two men were arrested in Crawfordsville,
Ind, on the 20th, for a novel swindling opera
tion. They purchased groceries, dry goods.
hardware, &c., and paid- in bills on the
" Western Exchange Bank" of Indianapolis.
When ignorance of the money was express
ed, they produced Paddock's Bank Note Mir
ror, and pointed to the quotation of the Bank
—" one and three quarters per cent. dis
count." Suspicion was finally aroused, they
were arrested, and s'6oo of the money found
on one of them. A suspicious circumstance
is connected with the bills, which are dated
on the 14th inst., and the Bank Note Mirror
on the 15th. These numbers of the Mirror
of that date, distributed to subscribers in
Crawfordsville, and adjacent counties merely
name the bank, hut say nothing of its value,
while the copies found on the men are as
above stated. When one of them ,was asked
by the Prosecuting Attorney whether he had
ever known an instance, when money had
been quoted at particular rates, by a bank
note director, and the same paid for, he de
clined to answer; when asked whether he
thought such an arrangement could be made,
ho replied he thought it could. The men
were held in $l,OOO, and officers are at work
investigating the matter. Mr. Paddock must
clear this ud, or his Detector will go by the
board.
Tweir.ty-Thirti Uorigreisioned District.
On the "Oth the Conferees of the district
composed of Clarion, Clearfield, Elk, Forest,
Jefferson, M'Kean, Venango and Warren
counties met at Brookville, and nominated
Hon. James Gillis as candidate for Congress,
by acclamation. Clearfield was not repre
sented. Resolutions were passed, re-affirming
the Cincinnati Platform; declaring that, as
the people of Kansas had rejected the Le
compton Constitution, there was no question
to divide and distract the Democracy, and
recognizing no other test of Democracy in the
present campaign than the support of the
ticket formed according to the usages of the
party ; expressing abiding confidence in the
integrity, wisdom and patriotism of the our
present chief magistrate, and the present
chief executive of the Commonwealth, and en
dorsing the soundness of the Democratic
nominees.
On Tuesday, the 24th, the conferees of
Clearfield, Elk, Jefferson and M'Kean met at
Ridgeway, and nominated William P. Wilcox
as the candidate of the Demooraoy . for the As

An Ex-Banker In Sore Tribulation—Ten
Thousand Dollars in the Suds.
An ex banker of this city, who " went under"
during the late " financial crisis," and was com
pelled by " outside pressure " to " shut up shop"
end endeavor to " realize assets amply " stiffi•
oient to cover all hie lie-abilities, was thrown
into a wild state of excitement on Tuesday last.
He was in fact in a state of mind bordering upon
phrenzy. It seems that he has a queer habit of
having breeches washed. He sends them out to
a laundress. Last Thursday the ox-banker's un
whisperables went oat as usual—one pair at
least—but the washerwoman, from some unex
pected cause, was dilatory and did not put the
bifurcates into suds as promptly as she was
wont. Saturday came, and she concluded to lay
the job over until the first of the week. Mon
day she was interrupted, and the unmentionables
were again put aside until Tuesday. That morn
ing, however, she resolved to dispose of the con
tract, and accordingly she prepared the instru
ments. She got the water hot, the suds made,
and held the " breeke " by the waistwand and
was about to subject them to hydropathic treat
ment, when her hand was suddenly arrested,
and her heart sent struggling into her throat
by a furious rapping at the door.
She hesitated, stood aghat between terror and
her washtub, but before she had time to collect
her faculties her patron stood before her, his
features distorted, his eyes blazing with frantic
excitement. Surveying her an instant, he
screamed rather than interrogated "Have you,
Hays you—washed my breeches ? HAVE you
washed my breeches ? You've ruined me, ruined
me ; have you washed my"—but suddenly catch
ing a glimpse of the garment still clutched by
the suspended hand of the terrified laundress, he
leaped forward with nervous energy, and snatch.
ing them from her, he ran his own hand hastily
along the waistband until he met with something
that seemed to satisfy his desires, and sinking
down in a chair he fairly wont into hysterics
By this time the poor woman found voice and
asked him " why, Mr.—, what is the matter?"
"Oh woman, woman," he sobbed, " what an
escape! 7 hero is ten thousand dollars in those
breeches. Whore's your scissors? Get them
(pick. Had you washed those breeches I would
have been ruined. What an escape?" The
laundress got the scissors; the seam of the waist
band was ripped open in an instant, and before
her astonished gaze beheld layers of bank bills—
of what value she knew not, save that he repeat
ed " ten thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars !
What au escape!"
.This, we aro solemnly assured, is a veritable
incident. The laundress who eo narrowly esca
ped biting" up $lO,OOO is an honest German
woman, who resides on Mill street, near
Third. We had not time last night to satisfy
ourselves respecting all the facts by obtaining an
interview with the washerwoman, and peradvert
tura there should be something unexplained, we
