CLEARFIELD, 'VJL, 5" AY 13, 1370.
The Boston iW says the prohibitory li
quor law never has and never can be execu
ted in Boston. The record of crime of that
city, for the month of April, tells a poor sto
ry for the law. Of 997 commitments to the
Tombs, C67, or two-thirds, were for drunk
enness, 258 being women.
Even thoc of us who see no necessity for
our Government taking any active part in
behalf of the Cubans, cannot read without
disgust the details of the scandalous haste
with which General Goicouria was garroted.
It was done to forestall any appeals to pave
his lif . Thoe Spaniards are brutal wrctch-
es, at best.

The rift-burg Gazette, the oldest daily
in Pittsburg, comes to our labia chid in a
beautiful new spring dress. Although the
Gazette is more than eighty years old. it is
as vigorous as any of its more youthful co
temporaries, and the new suit which it has
donned is a gratifying evidence that the peo
ple of Pittsburg appreciate its enterprise
and spirit.
General Lontr-treet was Marshal of the
Pay for the Fifteenth Amendment celebra
tion in New Orleans. L-mp'treet, whose
courage and gallantry on the field cannot be
gainsayed even by the rear guard and stay-at-home
Democracy, was never braver than
when, on the .""( ti of April last, he met the
allied forces of Southern prejudice an 1 pas
sion. His last charge is his best.
Kentucky and Delaware, the two reliable
Democratic States, cling with a death clutch
to the lat relic of barbarism the whipping
post. In the latter State the spring "sea
son" has fairly set in, and the good people
are enjoying a refreshing excitement. Now
that the negroes have been enfranchised, it
is expected that more enlightened views will
prevail end the whipping pot will soon be
numbered with other brutal Democratic ar
guments of the past.
It is estimated that it will require at least
forty thousand troops to carry on our pend
ing Indian war. The available force is a
bout seventeen thousand. The Mormons
are putting themselves upon a war footing
to resist the enforcement of the laws against
polygamy. The question arises will it be
the best kind of policy, to say nothing of c
cononiy, to add a Mormon war to aD Indian
war, and reinforce the redskins with the en
tire strength of the more savage white fol
lowers of Urigham ?
The Delaware White Men's Convention,
last week, was not a very great success.
The up-country trains brought ten men to
Dover, the down-country trains fifteen more,
and these vfere all that could be mustered in
the State. Even SauUbtiry was not in at
tendance. The fifteen, it is said, looked at
the ten, and the ten looked at the fifteen,
and then all looked at Sam 'f ownsend, who
had projected the movensert, until some
one said, "Let us go home!" when the
white men dispersed.
A Western paper states that Senators
Dick Yates and Zaeh Chandler are both anx
ious to command the Dig Horn expedition
a northwestern land speculating crusade
and maliciously asserts that "the expedition
itself tjiey care nothing about, but they
must have the horn." This trifling, with
Senatorial dignitaries is very unseemly, and
should not be tolerated by the respectable
press. In the- instance referred to it will
probably appear that neither of the gentle
men named cver'finds himself in a dilemma
about taking any sort of a horn.
General Sheridan's way of dealing with
the ''noble savage" makes him a lion among
the "white folks" of Wyoming and Monta
na, who at the same time regard the gentle
Quaker Peace Commissioners as "old gran
nies.." Sheridan deals with tha noble red
man as he finds him, in his necklace of
scalps, a most ignoble savage, while the hu
manitarians who denounce "Little Phil,''
no doubt think that every Indian is a sort
of Hiawatha spouting poetry. The simple
truth is, however, that these Western In
dians will have to be located" to work or they
will be killed off.
Judgment has just been given in New
York against 3 railroad in a case of interest
to all travelers on yearly tickets. A travel
er purchased a ticket that entitled him to a
hundred rides. He paid, therefore, for a
hundred rides ; but when he had taken fifty
rides he lost his ticket, which was the only
"evidence he had of having paid ln money.
The railroad company tried to take advan
tage of his loss by compelling him to pay
again, and he sued for so much money as
would pay for the fifty rides yet due, and the
railroad company had to come down. Rail
roads, therefore, have not got everything
their own. -
The same r?ad news is repeated from Mex
ico only in an aggravated form. Through
out the unhappy Republic affairs are ripen
ing for a universal anarchy, the progress of
which it is painful to contemplate, and the
results impossible to foresee. Highwaymen
abound, public officials are assassinated. and
most of the States, and even some of the
cities, are convulsed by local revolutions.
This is a terrible state of affairs, but while
the Mexicans choose to govern themselves it
is no affair of ours, aod we have no right to
interfere. In due time we suppose Mexico
will become Americanized, and with the ir
repressible but thrifty Anglo Saxons will,
wrae peaee, law and order.
Important to Land Owners. Deputy
Commissioner Douglass, has written a letter
to Joseph T. Valentine, Assessor of Inter-
nai liovenueoi tus tn - "
in answer to a number of persons who had
rented their farms for a portion of the pro
duet, and they ask the following question
"are we as landowners required to return as
income agricultural products on hand and
un-o!d?" The Commissioner replies:
"Land owners are to be considered for the
purpose of income tax, solely as the persons
who, having property, hate rented their
proteny for a cei tainaluableconsideratiotl
or rent, which rent is paid to them accord
ing to agreement in certain products of the
laud. It the rent had been made payable,
as i:s usual elsewhere, in money would
there be any doubt about returning the mo
ney as part or whole of income, as the case
might be? And vet these land owners seem
to think themselves injured because they are
required by law to return as income the mar
ket value of the. agricultural prjduets re
ceived as rent. It i-t however required by
lair -a nil cannot be avoided.
"These land owners labor under a mis
take, that because they own the laud they
must bo reeardedand recognized as farmers.
They speak of their 'stock on hand' and the
Vale o!' previous crops,' as if they had been
the producers of these crops ! Whereas' the
law regards them only as proprietors of real
estate from which rents are derived, and
requires that income be returred year by
year as it is received, for the purpose ot tax
ation. If such income has not been return
ed in previous years in the manner stated,
gross error, at least, has been committoi.
"If the land owners chose to keep the
rent which they '"d received, whether -the
sail re ui was in the nature ' of 'produce or
aught else, until they could dispose of it ad
vantageously to themselves they had a per
fect right to do so ; but when the said rent
has 'been so disposed, it becomes the duty
and the rit of said land owners or propri
etors of real estate, it' the amount received
for it Is in excess of its market value at the
time wheu it was returned as income, to re
turn said excess as income for the year in
which it is exchanged or sold and on the
Other hetid if it be les. to deduct the loss
realized from income. In this light it is re
garded precisely as all other business trans
actions are regarded, as the source from
which income is produced and not as the
growth or production of the estate, said es
tate beir.2 for the time, for the considera
tion of rent paid, in the possession of others
the tenants. Thee tenants are the far
mers, or producers of the crops.
A Good Hit. A very extraordinary
skeleton was recently exhumed in the sub
urbs of Mooiesville, Indiana, which excited
considerable interest in the community as to
its identity. The Chicago Post claims, on
the strength of its information, that the
skeleton is clearly "that of Old Nick that
" he must have died iu Indiana while on a
" visit to the Democracy there, and was
" probably buried by Dan Voorhecs, or some
" other grateful friend." The frame of the
exhumed thing, whatever it is, is said to
have 'some resemblance to a human being.
It measures 5 feet 10 inches in height. The
skull is quite depressed in front, having two
protuberances or horns just above the tore
head, curving backward. The arms are
long. The spinal bone is of remarkable
length, and terminates in a tail about a foot
in length.' "That's the fellow (exclaims
" the Post) we have read about !" Nothing
" is missing but the cloven hoot, and some
" mean iloosier had probably dug into the
" grave and got those out to make glue of.
" This proof of his demise will be received
" as a full explanation of the rapid decay of
" the Democratic party."
The British Nati-ualizatiox Reform.
Great Britain, first by treaty with Hon.
Reverdy Johnson, and now by statute,
o-.ifiinatine in the IIiue of Lords, and since
concurred in by the Commons, abandons the
old decree or "outre a subject, always a sub
ject." The new order provides that British
subjects naturalized in the Unite 1 States,
and United Jstates citizen-' naturalized in the
United Kingdom, are free from primitive al
beiaiiee. It also removes many di.-abiliiies,
and gives adopted citizens tire light to hold
and convey land, enter Parliament, an i
become members of tho Privy Council.
The absence of the first concession led to
the war of and the latter i liberal
almost beyond precedent in Europe.
The Income Tax. If the law providing
for a tax on incomes did-aud the fact is very
plain that it did expire with the year 1SCJ,
it is safe to say that Congress lias no right
to pass such a joint resolution as that which
recently went through the House, declaring
the act to have originally meant that it
should not expire at. that time. The law
ended and ceased, utterly, by its own ex
press terms of limitation, and there is no
honest way to revive the income tax except
by the passage of a new act, or what would
amount to the same thing, the re-enactment
oftheoldone. A resolution declaring the
expired act still pending is as absurd a
would be an act declaring a dead man to be
still alive.
Notes of Fkf.e Banks. The Auditor
Gcnfral continues to administer upon the
scattered remnants of the old free-banking
system of the Commonwealth. His report
fur ISG'j is now public. It appears that the
entire amount of circulating notes issued
from his Department to those institutions
was O.COS t o, of which only $.79 400
are now outstanding. For this sum, twelve
of, the banks are responsible, and have
each lodged tho needful security for their
redemption with the Department. It is
probable that nearly all the outstanding pa
per is in fact not in cxisteuce r"goae where
the woodbine twmeth."
FROTECfJON'iione of the ancient politi

The old Rebel Spirit.. It is pitable to
observe the frantic efforts being made by the
rebel element of the South to obliterate the
record which the country and indeed the
civilized worla have written -against tnem -to
stem the tide of the litih century which
is flowing in upon them. The Confederate
rebel General Gordon recently lectured in
Savannah, and seems to have dwelt chiefly
upon the subject of Northern school books.
These he would have entirely excluded from
the South. "We all know," said the spea
ker, "that the conquered always take their
impressions from the conquerors titkc their
civilization, their religion, their politics. It
may be best that we should take them from
the North; but we cannot think so. It
may be beit that we adopt their theory of
perfect equality ; but we think it subversive
,.e Un (',.,. ,lii.i.tital nrine'mles of covern-
ment, as well as atheistic and anti B:bie a
theory wl ich would level all distinctions
that God has made, anfwhichare recogniz
everywhere (even in Heaven and hell) but
here. Of course the distinction referred to
here is that of color. But how has it been
ascertained by this distinguished mournerfor
the- "lost cause"that white and black are reg
ularly assorted and separated in Heaven ?
But this vaporing may be conclusively an
swered by quoting with our progressive and
liberal;Democratic townsman, John O' Byrne
some of Paul's sermon from Mars' Hill:
"God hath made of one blood all nations
of men for to dwell on the face of the earth."
Not content with banishing all the school
books which do not uphold slavery and State
rights, glorify the rebellion, and canonize
its leading champions, General Gordon pro

Hail Storm in Philadelphia, A de
structive hail storm visited Philadelphia on
Sunday a-week, of which we obtain from
the North American some graphic particu
lars. It says :
The course of the sform was from the
northwest, and it moved rapidly. The fir.st
clouds gathered in the southwest, and mov
ed northwardly until underlying strata from
the southwest overtook them. The sky was
clouded from the southwest to the north
west, between two and three o'clock. The
storm struck Philadelphia at the latter hour
raged furiously and unintermittingly for
some time, and revisited mucli the same
area it ravaged at first. There are oipht
thousand street lamps in the city and fully
one half have been broken. The conserva
tories are a wreck and gardens have fuller
ed severely. I he owner of one mid esti
mates his loss, by breakage chiefly, at seven
to eight hundred dollars. Stores in which
the skylights were broken, giving the rain
and hail access to the interior, must have
suffered severely. The churches had some of
their finest stained glass and illuminated
windows wrecked. The total loss has been
estimated at $:J,0!!),000, and no one has set
it below $ 1, 000. 000. Stones fell that were
four inches in diameter, and they are repor
ted to have been found much larger than
this. 1 tie damage was materially grea'cr
than was worked by the storm of September
25, 1SC7.
The "New Pakty" Mistake. Certain
editorial gentlemen who visited this city
recently have free trade on the brain, and
labor under tho impression that they can
build up a new party based entirely upon
that doctrire. 1 hey held publie and private
conferences, were flattered and compliinen
ted ov I'emocraf.e politicians, ana luciing
assured that they were about to accomplish
great things and astonish the world, return
ed to their respective homes in a high stat
of satisfaction.
Tho idea of a new parly to bo formed upon
the free-trade principle is exceedingly grate
ful to the Democratic mind. They know
it will not take one man from the Democratic
fold, and that the Republican gudgeons who
swallow the bait will find themselves on the
Democratic stri'itr. The movement is in
everv re ;pect for the benefit of the Demo
critic party, an 1 this is so obvious that it
would require a vast amount of charity jo
suppose that the editorial gentlemen in
question do not understand and deaire such
result.
But we predict its utter failure. The at
tempt will be male, ani while in some
localities it may injure the Republican party
temporarily, m others it wu! be substantially
strengthened, and the principal consequence
will be that a few loiirnais now nominal!
Republican will find themselves in the Demo
cratic party, which to Republicans will be

Colonel . L. Hough denies in the
SanFraneiseo newspapers the charge of Fitz-
hugh Lee that General Thomas offered his
services to the Sonthcrcn confederacy. Fie
says that General Thomas met that charge
directly before his death. Colonel Hough,
who was for many years on the personal. staff
of General Thomas, serving as aid at the
time of his death, is a Philadelphian by birth
and education, and wherever he is known
his word will far outweigh that of any man
wlio has ma lo the charge.

Skill of Counterfeiters. The De
troit Post records the v- onderful skill of a
counterfeiter named John B. Trout, now
serving out a sentence in the Indiana State
prison, who was broujrht on to that city as
a witness before the United States court to
bhow the connection of the Johnson family
with the counterfeiting business in Indiana
from to 1807. Trout went into a min
ute description of the proeess of engraving
plates and printing notes, and the uses of
the various implements seized in Johnson
house. But the most wonderful exhibition
of his skill was in telling the name of the
engraver of a plate by examination of bill
printed from it- lie was thoroughly famil
iar with the work of all the engravers.
He detected a counterfeit from a genuine
bill at a glance, lie readily designated as
counterfeit an issue which even the treasury
department took as genuine fur some time
before detecting as false, the department
then heine oUifted to cancel the genuine is
sue because the fair was nearly perfect.
The United States Marshal has a book con
taining samples of all the counterfeits yet
issued. Trout looked at these bills and told
the engraver correctly each time with very
little examination. Trout could not de
scribe the process by which he distinguish
ed these various bills, but spoke of it as an
indescribable instinct.
Financial Recontre. Tho "bulls"

recuperating, and had gained such strength
and ascendancy as to he utterly retrardless

curities ; and so much so that the hieh road
to fortune seemed to consist in buying any
thing on the stock list. On Thursday lat.

ence the peculiar vicl-itudes of Wall street,
by a sudden decline in prices. But this is
only the repetition of an oft-told tale;
when the smoke of the recent battle has
cleareu away, more recruits win oe iurnisa-

Kiel'. organ, the Xeio Nation, declares
that Col Rankin was expelled from the Red

offered the aid of auxiliaries from the Uni

the Fenian movement has not the sympathy
of the Red river rebels, or as a contempora
ry expresses it, that Riel, though a bold
man in a certain way, is resolved not to rim
the risk of being "too bold." Manitoba
being thus tabooed to Fenian incursions,
they will have to look in another direction
for a point of attack on the New Dominion.
"Givf. tfir Devil tus Due." It is
