April 11. 1881, to bear interest at the
rate of Z per centum per annum
from July 1, 1881, an follows :
$50 No. 1,851 to No. 1,9.10, inclusive.

Is his report, just published, Ad
jutant General Latta of this Com
monwealth says that "under the laws
recently passed the military system
is made as nearly perfect as laws can
make it The discipline and general
efficiency is improved, and both at
Washington and Torktown the Na
tional Guard of Pennsylvania at
tracted universal approval. The en
campments during the year were un
usually successful and beneficial iu
their "results, and the inspections
show much more satisfactory results
than in any previous year. The
standard of marksmanship has not
j materially improved, but is credit
able, i lfty-three companies now own
their armories and thirty more are
taking steps to secure buildings of
their own."
The Philadelphia Record says : In
Europe there is one soldier to every
110 of population. In the United
States we have one soldier to every
2000 people. The area of the TJuited
States is almost double that of Eu
rope, but we have only 17 inhabitants
to the square mile, against 145 in Eu
rope. In such facts as these will be
found the reason why 700,000 men
and women found their wav across
the Atlantic to our shores in 1881.
There is room enough here to turn
around in. and the wages a man earns
is not taken from huu to support a
vast military establishment
Blackmailers in the Toils of the
Law.
There are men and women in the
cities who make their living by black
mail. They constantly watch people
of character, and if they notice any
thing on the part of the individual
that they are watching that can be
distorted into a charge of suspicious
work, they make a charge, and then
offer to say nothing about it for a cer
tain sum, and too often hush money
is paid by people when they have
done nothing of which they need be
ashamed. It is not often that the
blackmailer getj into email towns to
play his black arts. A couple of
blackmailers made an effort at. their
business in West Chester about ten
days ago, which is related by a West
Chester paper under date of the 11th
inst., as follows :
This afternoon Joseph Duttenhof-
fer, a married man, and his brother
Frank, single, were arrested on the
charge of attempting to blackmail L.
W. G. Hayden. a respectable business
man and married. On Monday Hay
den received through the mail a badly
spelled and poorly written letter,
signed Frank Shockley. It stated
that Hayden had lieen seen on Sun
day night taking a disreputable woman
into his office and unless he would
send to the writers $10 by Tuesday
his wife would be informed of the
scandalous story. The letter was
placed in the hands of an attorney,
who dropped a decoy letter in the
Post-office. The postal officials were
notified and officers placed on watch.
Lost evening Frank Duttenhoffer
called for the letter, which was given
him. The signal was given the offi
cers nnd they followed him to the
store of his brother JosepJt, where
both were arrested and the letter
found on the person of the latter.
They were brought before a magis
trat9 to-day, but waived a hearing
and were bound over to court
Besult of Unlawful Love.
An Ohio dispatch of the 11th inst,
says : Andy Fntzier, a negro, was ar
rest ed to-day, charped with the assas
sination of John Walton, a wealthy
farmer, near St Paul, Ind., last night
Frazier confessed and said he had
been promised a large reward by O.
Ml Garrett, a neighbor living near
him, if he would kill Walton. Gar
rett was arrested and taken to a Jus
t ice's office, where, before trial began,
he obtained permission to go to an
outhouse with a guard, aud suddenly
drawing a revolver shot himself in
the head, inflicting a mortal wound.
He retained consciousness long
enough to make a dying statement
and denied that he hired Frazier to
do the killing, but he intimated that
Walton's wife was more likely to be
the one. It is stated that Garrett
and Mrs. Walton have been suspected
of intimacy for some time.
The Boss Hunting Story;
From tie San Francisco News Letter.
Charles Dull and Harry Colton,
members of the Olympic Club, were
out duck-shooting. While trying to
cross one of the sloughs at low tide
Harry got mired, sinking in the soft
mud up to his armpits.. It was im
possible for Charles to assist him
through, fear of getting mired also.
The tide was rapidly coming in ; no
time was to be lost, for in twenty
minutes it would be over Harry's
head. On the bank was- a piece of
gas-pipe about five feet long. This
Mr. Dall managed to- get to Harry,
who, stuck in the mud, put it to his
mouth, and when the tide raised over
his head breathed through it for four
hours while Charlie went for help to
the drawbridge, six miles away. He
returned with ropes, and when the
tide receded again rescued his friend,
who was ahnoBt dead from exhaos

Tobacco Destroyed.
Deputy Collector Frank V. Stewart
yesterday destroyed a lot of tobacco
which bad spoiled on lbs hand? of Oli
ver CunniDgham. lt was rumoied that
this was done because Mr. Connioghaui
bad violated tbe revenue laws, but this
is a mistake. Tbe tobaeeo being spoil
ed, he could fiud no purchaser lor it,
and in order to get credit for it on the
tobacco account kept by the revenue
oflk'ers, it was necessary for it to be
destroyed by or in the presence of one
of these official; which explains Deputy
Collector Stewart's connection with it.
Tbeae were 1520 pounds in all 8G2
pounds of cutting, 133 pounds of leaf
and 0-0 pounds in paciayes. i ne to
bacco was hauled to tbe Fourth street
bridge in a wagon, and tbe scene tbat
ensued beggar description. Ud men
and young men, big boys and little boys,
all burned over, gome with fl.iur S4fks
and others with two-bush! bags, all
eager to obtaic a supply of the soothing
weed. Their disapi ointment was great,
though, when tbey learned that it could
not be given away, but would have to
be damped into the river. Notwith
standing the vigilance of Collector
Stewart, however, a few of them suc
ceeded in capturing some of the coveted
packages. So eager were some of tbe
persons that they stood on tbe river
banks and fished the tobacco out ot the
water as it floated down. Huntingdon
