The Bounty Tax Law.
On Friday of last week, at Philadelphia,
the Pennsylvania Supreme Court rendered a
decision that the act of the Le3islature, pass
ed April 2.5 th, 1804, authorizing the levying
of a bounty tax to raise volunteers, by towns
ship and corporate authorities, was in accords.
atm with the State constitution and legal.
The question arose originally in a suit started
in Indiana county, where the lower court de
cided the act to be legal. It was thence car
ried up to the Supreme dourt, where it was
argued by some of the most eminent legal
talent in the Commonwealth, and after a long
interval, a majority•of the judges have rcn•
dered the decision mentioned.
This case has been watched with more in.
terest perhaps, than any ever brought before
our courts. Upon its issue millions of dollars
were pending, and there is scarcely a town.
ship which is not affected by the decision.
Many persons have refused to pay their
bounty tax until the else had been fully
tested, and they will now be compelled to
settle with the collector without further delay.
The Court in this case, as in a number of
others, since the war commenced, divided
according to partizan sympathies. The two
Democratic judged, Woodward and Thompson,
gave opinions contrary to the legality of the
act; the two Republican judges, Reed and
Agnew, pronounced it entirely constitutional ;
and Justice Strong, who was elected by the
Democrats to the place he occupies, but who
hes in all political issues during the rebellion,
co—operated with the Republicans, cast his
decision alongside of Reed and Agnew, as we.
predioted.
A Movement that Interests the People of
Erie.
We find in the correspondence of the Cat—
taraugus Freeman, the fallowing account of a
new railroad project which , possesses mere
than ordinary interest to the people of this
city. Should the route here described be
completed, it. will materially affect the trade
of Erie. Oar business men, and above all,
our members of the next Legislature, should
keep a vigilant watch upon this movement,
for we doubt not an attempt will be made to
obtain legal authority for its completion, if,
indeed, such has not been obtained already:
Some fourteen or fifteen railroad men were
here night before last, passing over the line
of the proposed road and endeavoring to
arouse an interest among the inhabitants sufh•
cleat to secure the right of 'way ; they do . not
ask any other assistance from the towns. The
company held a meeting at Aurora on the
24th or 26th of June, and it is said that work
will be commenced on the route by-the first
of July. I saw a map of (dui route yesterday.
Commencing at Buffalo, it uses the Buffalo &
Pittsburg to Machias; thence down' the Is.
chum Valley to or near Olean, and up the
Allegheny river to Port Allegheny, Pa.;
thence southerly by a direct and feasible route
to Emporium, Pa., where it intersects the
Philadelphia & Erie road. By this route, it
is claimed, the distance from Buffalo to Phila
delphia, Baltimore, Washington, etc., is much
less than by any of the present routes. The
company promise that with the right of way
contributed by the towns, they will have the
road in running order within a year.
GREAT Loss OP 01L.—..13y the bursting of
two tanks of the United States well on Pithole
creek, a week or more ago, the United States
Company lost two thousand five hundred bar
rels of oil, which ran down the creek. Less
than half a mile below ,the well, two little
boys, with an experimental turn of mind,
applied a lighted match to this extraordinary
stream, which of course ignited, and the
flames, going with- rapid stride up the creek,
menaced the well with its twenty thousand
barrels of petroleum, besides two Intervening
wells. A Bull Bun panic seized upon the
scores of teamsters engaged in " hauling "
oil from the well, and a general and rapid
stampede followed. The telegraph offices
were thronged by nervous holders of United
States petroleum stock, directing their Plow
York brokers to sell out, in anticipation of
what did not occur. By thigreatest effort of
two hundred cr more men a dam was built,
the oil stopped, and at length
, the fire below
extinguished. The scone was worthy of a
better day, of the 4th of July even. The
flames rose almost to lick the sky—not in one
volume of flame, but in little jets, oftentimes
taking the shape of the threads of a-screw.
Had not the progress of the fire been stayed
when it was, the result would have been a
conflagration of grandeur scarcely parallelled.

SONGS YOB. ALL SgA2o2lB.—We have received
from Messrs. Ticknor & Fields, the second ?f
the series of poems entitled " Songs for all
Seasons." It is a collection of brief and popu•
lar poems by Tennyson, with illustrations by
Maclige, Creswiek, Eytinge, Barry, Fenn and
Perkins. The selections are well chosen and
give all the old favorites that are not too long;
among others that noble Christmas hymn in
"In Memoriam" beginning—
Ring ont, wild bells, to the wild sky."
Most of the illustrations are excellent.
There are 84 pages, beautifully printed, and
put up"in neat paper covers for fifty cents.

The Dispatch cornea our item of last week,
mentioning a number'of persons who are un
derstood to lave been invited to deliver the
oration here on the Fourth, and adds some
comments, the propriety or signitioance of
which it would be hard for the writer to ex
plain. Does it mean to intimate that the in
dividuals mentioned were not invited, and
if so, will it have the courtesy to tell as
who have?
We are gratified to learn that the movement
in favor of converting the Erie Academy into
a high school, under the management of the
city Board of Ccntrol, bids fair to become
successful. It is understood that. a majority
of the Trustees of the Academy, as well as of
the School Board, favor the measure, and that
it will soon be consummated. We need very
much a first-class high school, and no build.
ing in the city is more eligibly located for
the purpose than the " old Academy."
On Friday night of last week, the residence
of Mr. C. Engelhart, on Tenth street, was
broken into, and some books, papers and
wearing apparel stolen therefrom. On Mon.
day; a man coming into the city met a boy
some miles out, carrying a basket containing
a queer variety of articles. lie brought the
boy to the city al , ' took him before 'squire
Curtze, Where the basket was overhauled, and
a number of the articles taken from Mr. En—
glehart's house, discovered. He has since
made a confession, and been sent to jail.
On Saturday afternoon a " floral curiosity "
appeared in front of Banyard's grocery store,
on State Street. It consisted of a cactus, on
the branches of which appeared some three or
four varieties •f flowers, in fall bloom. The
novel vegetable " wonder " attracted consid—
erable attention, and would doubtless have
been the subject of a number of learned phil
osophical descriptions in the newspapers, had
not some wise char, acquainted with Ban ,
yard's reputation as a practical joker, made a
closer investigation and discovered that the
flowers were ingeniously fastened on ths plant
with phis, iu a manner that almost forbade
detection. Tho trick was not ascertained,
however, until a couple of score of our shrewd
est eft:seas had been sold.
We were•mietaken in saying that the insane
man Kirtland, whose mischievous pranks were
detailed is last week's issue, had broken out
of the county jail. He had been brought to
the city for the purpose of confinement in the
jail,until an order for sending him to the Asy
lum could be obtained, and while taking a
meal with his attendants at the Park House,
broke away from them, and committed the
acts described. We make this correction
willingly, in justice to Mr. Warren, the jailor, ,
whose vigilance is so well known that we
thought it strange at the time the article
was written that Kirtland could have got
sway from the• premises.
For the beautiful flag, which decorated the
Democratic hickory pole, in front of Brown's
Hotel, on the Fourth, and which attracted
such generd admiration. our friends are in.
debted mainly to the exertions of C 'pt. W. W.
Dobbins, whose zeal in the cruse renders him
one of the most efficient members of oar party
in this city. _ The - means to obtain thof flag
were contribntedlsreome half a dozen of our
leading Democratit s and it was made up, ac
cording to the directions of Capt. Dobbins, in
Buffalo. The latter was largely assisted in
procuring its elevation by Mr. Wm. 0. Ar—
buckle, another active Democrat, who never
hangs back in any work Intended to promote
the good old cause. The Democrats of this
city now have an elegant flag, for use on all
public occasions, and in the hands of Capt.
Dobbins, we feel assured that it will be as
well taken care of as if it was his own private
property.
Col. A. K. McClure, of the Chambereburg
Repository, has been on a trip to the oil court •
try, and gives a long account of the sights he
saw, through the columns of hie paper. On
his homeward way he passed through Ai heal
thy political locality, on the line of the P. &
E. railroad, which he thus describes :
" Here is an agricultural settlement, called
St. Mary's, peopled by German-Catholics, but
I don't think that Americans could live there
by the cultivation of the soil. The Germans,
however, seem to thrive pretty well, and they
have a fine school, a; large chapel, with the
largest church organ in the State, and that
manufactured here in the mountains. They
have also some exquisite paintings in the vil
lage. They don't get distracted with politics,
as they all vote one- way. I remember some
years ago, when I made a small experiment
for a State office, I got one vote In St. Mary's,
to some 400 against me. I believe that the
place got too hot for the author of that vote.
Since then the opposition to the Democracy
have risen to the dignity of five and sometimes
even eight votes, but they came from out—
siders, as the colony presents an unbroken
phalanx for Democracy."
The Republicans of Crawford county held
their convention on Tuesday of last week, and
placed•in nomination the following ticket : As

Harvey Henderson; Com Missioner, B.
David; Auditor, James Irvin; Surveyor, T.

is the only candidate who has been a soldier,
the rest having all - fought " their country's
battles " valiantly—a t home ! He iwas op
posed by Capt. D. P. Jones, anothersoldier,
who does not appear to have been much cf a
favorite, having received, but 406 dotes to
1,018 for Me competitor. Mr. Henderaon, the
candidate for District-Attorney, has been
Chairman of the Republican County Commit
tee during the last year, and Messrs. Sturte
vant and Bemus were Representatives in the
last Assembly. The Convention adopted the
following sa one of the planks in their pint
form :
Loyalty to the Government should be 'the
only test of the right of suffrage—those who
have fought to preserve tho Union on the
field of battle, whether white or black are
certainly worthy and fit to protect it through
the ballot-box—it is unworthy the age in
which we live, to deprive men of voting who
sustain the Government by their treasures and
their blood.
Down in Ciawford coulty, during the GI.
bernatorial campaign of 1863, a young law
yer, noted for the length of hie neck, his
tongue and his kill, was on the stump blowing
his horn for And-ew G. Curtin. Getting on
his eloquence, he .spread himself, and said :
"I would that on the 12th day of next Os•,

Some . wise writer, perhaps Barnum or
.Dr.
Jayne,, thus discourses upon the subject of
advertising :
" Yon see goods are like girls—they must
go when they are in fashion and good look•
ing, or else a yoke of oxen wouldn't draw
them off afterward. The man that advertises
most does the most business, because he don't
make one stook last one's lifetime Adver—
tising is like money if followed up. Mer
chants think nothing of paying forty dollars
for one sign, with nothing but a name on it.
Well, what do you think of having several
hundreds or thousands of signs a week in
newspaper? In it you show your whole es.
tablishment to the coon try every week.

in the ownership of this paper, or any part
thereof, or any control over its columns, or

from the individdal whose name appears as

this explicit statement, to hear no more of the

Where are all the circuses this year" is
a question we often hear asked. We see their
advertisements in many of the papers printed
in neighboring towns, but thus far not one
eindescended to visit Erie. The high
license charged by our city authorities pro
bably has something to do with it. The com
munity is perhaps as well off without them.
