A Al&Te.'.N STORY.—An extraordin

wife, of whom he was jealous in the ex

VILLAINY AT A PREMIUM.
It was once common to hear about the
reward of merit and virtue rewarded.
It sounded pleasantly, made a neat copy
for• the urchin in the pothook shigeyand
sometimes "pointed a moral , or adorned
a talc."
But, as the French say, " we have
changed all that." Vice is now 'iiin
fling neck and neck with' gold for a
pretnium ; and its market value may be
about %easily estimated ps that of gold.
For this questionable blessing the coun
try is largely • indebled to the abuse of
the pardoning power by Andrew John
son, President of the trilited States.
For . three years d wealthy New York
er, named Kohnstamm, has been de
frauding the Government in various
ways, but chiefly by trumping up false
claims through forgery, peribry, and
subornation of perjury. The sum total
of his stealings reached about half a
million of money. Justice at last
aroused and arrested him in the full
tide of his criminal career, and ne'less
than fort -eight indictments were found
against hiM. On one of these indict
ments he was arraigned, tried, convict
ed,\
and sentenced to ten years penal
•
servitude at Sing-Sing.
'-' So far so good. It is pleasant to say
that neither the position nor cash of
Oils villain availed to bias the Court
wltich tried him. It seems that he'llad
koce9 ed upon the principle that mon
ey wil do anything, and that it would
continue thus potent. The hypothesis
proved• incorrect,_ and the Judge SeD i,ed
cenced ' him • ILS promptly as if he had
been only a poor devil convicted of fil
ching a loaf of bread from a baker's
~._,
window.
But right here the duty_and preroga
tive of the Judge ended, and the pre
rogative of-Andrew Johnson came in.
The case was carried up to theCOurt of
laSt resort—to the President—and he at
once seems to hilve).ecognized in kohn
stamm a victim of persecution. He im
mediately issued fi full pardon to the
victim, without observing the usual tri
fling formality of having a copy of the
evidence in the court below before him,
and without consulting the District lAt
torney who conducted the prosee . uion
i t
for the Government. But as if he sym
pathized with unconscionable villains,
and sought opportunity' to manifest
that c sympath ,he hastened to save this
perjurer, t of and forger from the
rightous penalty orthe law he had de
fied.
The effect of ,thi4 terrible abuse of the
pardoning power can only be lo en
courage villainy of all sorts and sizes.
There is a mistaken notion of mercy
abroad in the country, a sort 'of retimkl
cruelty, by which the iirpocen t are bro
ken on the wheel and the guilty rewar
ded. The exercise of this quality •of
mercy has rendered lli teunre of life
and property very precarious in many
neighhorhoods. The murderer at heart
beheld how a set ot rascally politicians
lay in wait to take the life of the nation,
k nakitig the deadly assault with impu
a itN, and was embolded to drive tie
znifeto the heart of his victim. The
thief :raw how these . same - Ipoliticians
robbed the national arsenals, armories,
custom-houses and mints with impuni
ty;
and was encouraged to break open
his neighbor's . storehouse, or I,:uock
down and rob the :unwary- traveler.—
The vicious man saw how perjury trip ;
ped from the tonguys of Southern sen
ators, and was encouraged to replenish
his purse by fraud, forgery, and perjury.
The influence of evil example is swift
and -positive; and here we have the ir
refilagable proofs of it.
This exercise of-mercy without dis
crimination is hot restricted to high
places. We - heed not to go to Washing
ton to find it in all its hideoirpiess. Ev
erywhere, to.o much of whaCiSmisnam
ed mercy, is shown offenders against
the y laws made to protect society against
the encroachments of vice. It is time
that penitentiary crimes invved peni
tentiary punishment.. It'-is.time that
the Commonwealth should' take notice
of compounded felonies and punish the
compounders. It is time that penalties
prescribed should be inflicted. Fines
adjudged should he levied and collected,
and paid over to the proper receiver.
And until thes things are done, society
will never be . mire. While mercy is
cheap security will be dear. Making
no specific chaige of delinquency, we

An exchange, whose sympathies are
decidedly rebel, and whose editor was
punished for- deserting from the U.S.
Military service during the war, is very
much exercised about the faMine at the
South. " Who," he r asks, " caused the
starvation?;' The question‘s not a dif
ficult one to answer. We should say
that the destitution now reigning at
the tioutharises from one . of these cans
et, or from the first two combined.:—
Either the people are too proud to work,
or wasteful ; or else the season was'un
propitious for raising and securing the
crops. j If the latter ' ,
.he the true cause
then We Should say that 'the Almighty
caused the starvation at the South;
and if it be not the.true cause, then one
or both of the Causes first named
must be consulted. •
But our• eoternporary, smarting un
der his puniShnie'nt for desertion, over
leaps all the facts known and charges
the distresses in the South upon Abra-
ham Lincoln. 'Mr. Lincoln ordered the
South to be purged with fire and sword,
he says, and the land was therefore de
stroyed. Poor fellow! (we allude to the
editor) He should read the news of the
day,'and learn that drouth In one place,
and floods in another, caused the pres
ent.distress in the South, in the main.
That Sherman punished the South on
his famous march to the Sea is certain.
We aro glad hedid. We are only sorry
that he did not punish the" Northern
traitors as severely.
As some men swagger in their walk,
and are braggarts. in 'speech, so some
men swagger with their pens, and ex
hibit themselves in the public prints as
‘‘Lcus riders do in the ring. It is not
difficult to \ fix the pfecise Market. value
ofsueh fellows. Their language is as
compreheudable as the figures npon the
little tags affixed to dry goods.
So, when we take up a paper which
with various bar-room phrases declares
that "no impeachment of President
Johnson is going to be allowed," we do
not 'stop to ihquire whether such im
peachment is either desirable or possi
ble. But the first question which sug
gests itself is, how is impeachment to
be prevented if just grounds for it be
found to exist? By violence? You have
tried violence as a means to overthrow
the government, and failed. Why will
* not these truculent fellows inform their,
patrons how the ends of justice are to
be frustrated, and so prepare theta for
a seconcl rebellion ?
We still adhere to the opinion that a
little hanging for treason would Prick
the distended - bladdermen who afflict
comfit unities, and reduce talking bullies
to reason. A little hanging, Mr. Presi
dent; wilt greatly assist in keeping the
peace.
The Emperor of Braiil, obedient to
the spirit of the age, has formally de
ci•eed- the abolition of slavery in his do
minions. The ,only reservation made
is that minors shall be free at their ma
jority, It remains with Spain to pro
claim the complete outlawfy of human
slavery in Christendom. Shall we ex
pect a howl of indignation from the
again bereal4ed Democracy ?
A rebel paper being forced to admit
the good behavior of the freedmen,.de
dares that it is all owing to their disci
pline while sires. If that lie the case,
would it not be a good plan to reduce
the rebels to a state of. servitude, and so
ensure the good behavior of themselves
and their descendants?

SECOND PAPER
I mentioned in my former article two
sisters, Anna and Molly Mills. Their
mother was dead and they came up to
the Big Meadows to keep house for their
father, 3 - nay. Mina. 6.2.1n0, ocoon-lot-tx-rn
ed to use the rifle, and Molly some time
later. The old man sent to Sunbury
and got Martell to make each a rifle.—
Anna's cost $O.
Soon after the rides arrived the girls
took the old Man's horses and set off
for au Elk - hunt up Big' Elk Lick in
Potter County. At the mouth of Long
Run they found five Elk in the creek,
near where Levi Furman now lives.—
They dismounted and crept as near as
they could,, and fired away, bringing
down two Elk. They at once set about
loading their rifles, acid Melly got a
hall jammed and broke her ramrod.—
Anna had better luck, and brought
down another Elk. The rest ran away.
The girls loaded their horses with Elk
meat and returned home.
Not long after thits Anna saw an Elk
in the creek, \and taking her rifle set
out for it. Her father was at work on
the_ opposite side of the creek, and see
ing the Elk took his rifle and started
for it. But Anna' was too nimble for
the old man, and 'getting the first shot,
hrought the Elk down, badly wounded.
13lefore she could load, the dog clime up
and away went the Elk down stream
until it reached Jackson's Cabin, where
SuSan Jackson turned it back. The
old man was on the watch and shot it
on its return. He scolded Anna for not
calling him, saying it was too bad to
come there among the rattlesnakes.—
She turned to the old mah Mills and
said : "This is my hunt, father. I
didn't ask you to leave your Work, and
I can take care of my meat." Her
father left her, and Mrs. Jackson ; and
Susan Jackson to take care of the•car
case. And they did it, too. •
Some two or three years after these
incidents oceured, Molly Mills and Jo
siah Furman Married. Father and Fur
man went out to work on John,Norrisls
Mill now owned by John Dickinson.—
During their absence our dog treed a
big bear, and my brother Ephraim went
to Molly Furman for help.
` She shot
the bear, and Elias Spencer came over
and helped to dress it. Spencer died
in Wellsboro some years ago.
Susan Jack Son still lives at Furman
town as the Widow Drew.
Soon after Anna Mills and James
Boatman married, James and his`fath
er went away up Big Elk Lick. 'Du
ring their absence three land proprietors
from Philadelphia called and asked for
food and lodging. They were on their
way to inspect the new road . then be
ing made in what is now McKean
Count.. They were Quakers. Of
course they asked for fresh venison.—
She told them she bad no fresh, but
plenty of dried venison. But nextmor
ning she got up as soori as she could see
and went to Marsh Fork to the first
riffle, where she found three elk. She
brought one down, cut out the ham,
went home and' soon had a smoking
venison steak on the table for her
guests. They were astonished when
she explained how she got it; and when
they went away made her a present of
$5.
I have been particular in recounting
these adventures of Anna and Molly
Mills that people might see what sort of
girls first settled in Tioga County.—
Anna Boatman was living at Little Mi

LAKE Ca; iAI24 April 29, 1867.
00811; Eau., Dear Sir: It is with pain
ful regret that I inform you, and through you, his
many friends in old Tioga county, of the death - bf
our mutual friend, Wattot W. McDonciath,„
which occurred at his residence in Wabashaw,
oil the morning of Aprit26th, at she o'clock, after
a brief' illness of ono week. •
Ile had recently returned from a s'utvoying tour,.
near the headwaters of Lake Superior, where he
contracted a severe cold, which terminated in
Congestion of the Lungs. Mr. McDougall was a
man well known, and highly esteemed, ny many
of the citizens of our native county, Infavious to
his coming to this country. -
In the spring of 181.7, ho' came to this State
and Bottled at Wabashaw, the county seat of Wa..
hash= county, where he has since resided. In
following his occupation as Surireyor and Land
Agent; he soon became widely known, and in con.
setrence of his correct business 'deportment, and
strict integrity, was early identified with the lead.
ing and influential men. of the county. He has
served three years as County Auditor, which office
he filled with the highest credit to himself, and
with entire satisfaction to all with whom ho had
to do.
In the town in wideh he 'resided, he was fore
most in every 'enterprise to advance the interests
of_tho place. In the Church with which he was
connected, he was an office bearer and one of the
main pillars in its support; and the last public act
'of' his life was to attend One of the business meet
ings of the Church, which he did upon the eve
ning in which he was stricken down. But in his
own home circle did his affection, his virtue, his
piety shine more brightly than elsewhere. He
was pro-eminently a tender, affectionate 'husband
and father, a kind and sympathizing brother, and
a sincere riend, and although be was unconscious
of the near approach of death, yet, as he lived, so
have we reason to believe he died, in the bright
hope of a glorious resurrection through Jesus
Christ, his Saviour. Wo shall miss him, and we
mourn his loss, yet '''weanourn not as those with
out hope,", for we are fully assured that "our
loss" "is is eternal gain."
"How blest the righteous when he dies I
When sinks a weary soul to rest,
How mildly beams the closing eyes,'
How gently heaves the expiring breast 1

Light from its load the spirit flies;
While Heaven and Earth combine to say,
How blest thei rtghteousivhen he dies I"

FIFTY riAIYS WITHOUT FOOD.—That

name is Brown, and who has now been
engaged for; fifty. days in starving him
self to death, still survives and convers

says the Dayton Empire, which adds
that his pulse is as strong as ever. The
Empire wonders that this extraordinary
case has not led to an investigation by
scientific persons. Science, hoviever, is
not disposed to trouble itself about elder

any !fort of nourishment for a trifling
term of seven 41yeeks. If Mr. Brown
will keep it up for . a couple of years,
