The bill reduces the tax on whiskey from
two dollars to sixty cents per gallon, and on

vetoes of the Reconstruction acts, with the
giazsual references to the Constitution, of which

nq,.ln the House of —Representatives Mr.
Kelsey introduced a bill relative to coneoli-
dating the national debt. It providds—that
the Secretary of the Treasury shall be au
thorized to issue bonds to the anar,unt of two
thousand millions, and interest
payable in coin in the United States and Eu
rope; as the Secretary may designate. The
rate of interest to be five per cent., payable
setni , annualik ,s and the bonds to be paid in
fifty years from date, or to be redeemed by
the Government at pleasure after twenty
years. The bonds are to be exempt from tax-
ation by the States. One•balf of one per
cent. shall be deducted from the interest on
the bonds semi-annually. This shall be in
vested in bonds to form a sinking fund for
the pay want of the national debt. Bond
holders may convert the bonds which they
now hold into these. There is no prospect
for the passage of any such bill as this du•
ring the present Session.
lerThe Grand Jury of the United States
District Court for Penns3lvania, in their re
cent presentment, added the weight of ,their
testimony to the almcst universal opinion
that the high tax on whiskey is the prolific
source of misery and corruption, while it Alt
terly fails in its object of yielding an ade
quate revenue to the Government. The pre
sentment very truly and pithily says : '.The
high tax does not diminish the consumption
to drinking.
e Fraudulent distillation does
not cheapen it to consumers for drinking
purposes, neither in the alcoholic form for
t e arts or artisans, for medial purposes,
ornpounds, tinctures, lotions, &c.; neither
JOT cosmetics maxi the various preparations
of cologne water, the importation of which,
from the high price of alcohol, is vastly in
creased. These uses last enumerated prob.
ally consume as much whiskey as is drank.
The money, it is believed, made by this fraud
ulent distillation goes into the pockets of
these traffickers instead of the hands of the
Government." There is no subject before
Congress that is more pressing than the tax
on distilled spirits and with all honest men
in the country who ,are familiar with the
practical workings of the law, in favor of a
reform -that is only, opposed by the iniqui
tous Whiskey Ring, there should be no hes
itation at effecting such legislation as will
break up this terrible source of corruption.
gs„The assassination of Maj. Lawrence,
at Russellville, Kentucky, on the 17th inst.,
was the result of a deliberate determination
on the part of the rebels to kill or drive out
every Union man is their midst. He bad
been repeatedly threatened by the Ku Klux
Klan. A week before he received notice
that ho was to be killed in less.than ten days.
— lie paid no attention to the warning, and as
ho was going out of town to serve a sum
mons, the.aseassin stole upon him and liter
sly butchered ' -him' in broad-day-light. Capt.
hlcelery of the army, who went down to in
vestigate the ease, pronounced it a cool, pre-
meditated murder. Union citizens arc arm-
ing, and the utmost excitement !menage. A

__RAILROAD MEETING AT FAYETTEVILLE.--
An adjourned meeting of the Waynesboro'
and Mt. Alto Bail Road Company, was held
on Thursday, June 18th, in the Union Hall
at Fayetteville. The meeting was organized
by electing Daniel Geiser President, Henry
Good of Quincy, Vice President, and Jacob
B. Cook, of Fayetteville, Secretary.
The object of the meeting was stated by
Col. Weistling, to be the hearing of the re
ports of the canvassing committee for sub
scriptions. After the reports were submit
ted, it was ascertained that fifteen thousand
dollars had.beetr subscribed since the last
meeting held at Mt. Alto, leaving but twon
ty-eight thousand to compl e the amount
necessary to effect an orgatnization of the
company. Col. Weistling made a speech,
setting forth very forcibly the importance
and value of the road to the country through
which it passed, and urged immediate ac
tion upon the part of the committees to se
cure as early as possible; the remaining sum
necessary for organization. The Col. was
was followed by Mr. Douglas, showing the
importance of the road as a connecting link
with other roads leading to markets on the
sea board.
A resolution was offered to assess the re
maining twenty eight thousand dollars 'upon
the towns and townships on the line of the
road. This was carried, and a complete was
appointed to make the assessment, which
was done and reported before the meeting
adjourned, It is expected before the next
meeting the whole amount will be raised.

SUCCESSFUL OPERATION.—The last flan
over Spectator says of our friend, Dr. Snive
ly, formerly of this place : "Last week a
most difficult surgical operation, the removal
of the left uppear jaw bone of a young lady
residing in this place, was successfully per
formed by Dr. A. J. Snively. The operation
was a most difficult and critical one, requir
ing the utmost skill, and was pertoinied by
the Doctor in a.comparatively short time and
with but little pain to the patient, who is,
now doing well.
AN ACCIDENT.—An accident occurred on
the turnpike a few miles West of this place
on Wednesday morning last which might
have resulted fatally to the parties. Mrs.
Henry Lecrone with her infant and a lady
in company with her wati driving along the
pike when the horse suddenly took fright
and ran off. ' The lady, whose name we have
not learned jumped out of the buggy, esca
ping without injury. Mrs. L. and the in
fant were thrown out, both receiving serious
but'not fatal injuries. The buggy was de
molished.
OuT.—Oar neighbor, Mr. John Walter,
in another column announces himself av a
candidate for the office of Sheriff, subject to
the decision of the Republican County Con
vention. Mr. W. is one of our most promi
nent and substantial citizens, and if nomina
ted and elected would make an efficient•offi

KILLED BY LIBUTNING —Mr. George
Sarbaugh, Jr., of this vicinity had two val
noble horses killed by lightning during the
storm of Tuesday evening last. Be had just

Our informant states that they were some

struck into a roekbreak tearing up the ground
in four different directions- This is a seri

POLITICS AND THE RAILROAD.- Th e
Democratic Convention to nominate c di
dates for President and Vice President wt
meet in New York on Saturday, the 4th day
of July. With its adjournment it is fair to
presume the campaign will open in earnest,
and which promises, judging from the pres
ent state.of public feeling in political circles.
to be more than ordinarily-exciting. Meet=
logs are already being held, and in a very
short time scarcely a town of any note in our
State will be-without its clubs or political
organizations. Gen. Grant is certainly a for.
midable competitor for a seat in the. White
Hotise, but the Deuideratto politicians will
be none the less vigilant in their efforts to
secure his defeat. An excitingandwarmly_
contested political battleinust.necessanly be
the result.

WHAT RAILROADS DO FOR FARMERS.-
The American Agriculturaliei says : To
haul forty bushels of corn fifty milts on a
wagon would costs at least $l2 for team,
driver, and expenses. A railroad would
trans s ort it for 6-1 at most. Allowin_ an av-
erage of forty bushels per acre, the crop
would be worth $B - more per aere, 0 r 8 per
cent. on $lOO. .As the relative advantage is
about the same for other oro is, it is-. clear
that a railroad passing through a town wou
add $llO per acre to the value of the farms.
t--touts-ten-miles—square — con tained-64,000
. • . - iverease of c - ri per acre is equa
to $6,400,000, or enough t o build two
hundred miles of railroad, even if it cost $22,
000 per mile. But two • hundred miles of
road-would--extend -through twenty--town ,
ten miles square, and cost but $lO per aere
if-taxed - upoii - thelind. These — figures are
given merely as an illustration. If the far
mers had taxed themselves to build all the
railroads in this country, and given them a•
way to any companies that would stock and
run them, the present increased value of
-their-lands-would have—well—repaid—all—the
outlay.
