A Washington correspondent says that
President Arthur contemplates the ad

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 8,000

mass of legislation gone on the statute
books.
The star routers are accused of sending
to the newspapers controlled by them the

becomes the more marked.
Mr. Cyrus W. Field's journal is indig
nant that the Dutchmen at Ctiracoa had
the impudence to fire on the American
flag. A terrier would bite a blood hound

teach the Dutchmen a lesson. As we
have no navy at present, talk of vengeance
is idle twaddle.

The Loudon Saturday Review doubts
whether General Grant would have been
successful if he had been originally as
signed to the command in Virginia, and
it thinks that General McClellan was un

however, that the fortune of war was de
cided by the loss of Vicksburg and the
Mississippi.
A protectionists' organ remarks: ‘-The
prayer of the Philadelphia Press for a
Republican leader in the House has been
answered, and Reed, of Maine, has come
to the front with views broad enough for
the whole Union, and such as are calcu
lated to unite the Republicans on the
great issue of the future, to-wit, ‘Protec
tion to all American industries which
need it.’ ” Now. if Reed will name the
“infants” that need more pap he will sim
plify matters greatly.
In case Congress adopts the internal
revenue part of the Senate bill, and adds
thereto the House sugar schedule and
steel rail duty, as the only tariff changes,
the benefits conferred upon the whole peo
ple can be quickly enumerated. They
will be but two in number, viz., a repeal
of the stamp tax on matches, and a small
reduction of the duties upon sugar. The
reduction upon steel rails is for the benefit
of the railroads, and the several reduc
tions and repeals in the internal revenue
system, except as to matches, are entirely
in the interest of special classes.
Ixt the Fans' Proceed.
The conduct of the majority in Congress
in regard to the absorbing question of
Federal taxation is truly extraordinary.
The President in his first message to the
Forty-seventh Congress urged a reduc
tion of the public burdens, and the
only response made after weeks of
profitless discussion was a beggarl>
proposition to cu( down the internal
taxes, the onlv real relief contained in
this proposal for the people at large being
the abolition of the tax on matches. This
scheme failed, as it deserved to Call, and
the people in November passed judgment
on the rascally majority in Congress by
voting it down at the polls.
The President reiterated his suggestions
at the opening of the present session, and
the greater portion of the time has been
spent in efforts not to comply with them,
but to seem to do so while avoiding com
pliance. The matter has come to this
pass. The House bill to reduce
internal revenue that went
over on the Senate calendar at the last
session has been enacted anew. so that its
original framers cannot recognize it. and
to this has been tacked an alleged tariff
bill, framed by the Senate in violation of
the prerogative of the House. The latter
body, without a word ol de
bate on . the features of this
new bill, by a revolutionary rule, has non
eoneurred in the measure and sent it to a
packed conference committee. The rep
resentatives of the minority chosen to
serve on this committee have either prop
erly declined or, knowing the purposes of
the majority of the committee, take a list-
less interest in its proceedings.
To cap the climax. Mr. Emory Speer, of
Georgia, is picked out as a representative
of the Democracy upou this juggling pom
mittee. If Mr. Speer represents De
mocracy. the people of Georgia and the
country at large are at a loss to discover
the evidence of his qualifications.
Mr. Randall had the decency, being a
protectionist, to decline to serve. The
sooner the farce is ended the better. For
tunately but a few hours remain for the
jugglers to get in their work. The Senate
bill in its entirety is farcical enough,
when measured by the popu
lar demand as formulated in
the President’s message, and to present
to the people as a sop the’ internal reve
nue sections of the bill, with the possible
addition of reductions ou sugar ami steel
rails, would be sublimely ridiculous.
The majority has strained so in its
efforts to avoid incurring on the one hand
the-hostility of the barous who have aided
it so long, and inviting on the other the
further condemnation of the taxpayers,
that it has got itself in desperate straits,
It would appear, though, that it is beut on
maintaining the alliance with the
barons with the hope that the eyes
of the people may be shut up with the
beggarly concessions the juggling confer
ence committee may offer. The minority
should accept the issue. Let the farce
proceed, and wait for the reckoning. This
question is a vital one and will
l>e settled. The people are
learning more and more of it every
day. Protection is digging its grave, Its
over-zealous champions have betrayed it,
not by bold, honest demands for the
licensed spoliation it calls for, but by the
greed exhibited by special interests, the
sum of whose selfishness is the weight the
masses have borne -o long.
The projected movement by the Penn
sylvania authorities against the Standard
Oil Company, on the charge of bribing an
agent of the State, has collapsed. Gov.
l’attison has received a communication
from the Auditor General, in which he
sajs the State Treasurer, Attorney Gene
ral and himself entered into negotiations
with Patterson to procure evidence for
the commonwealth in its case against the
Standard Oil Company for the recovery of
$3,000,000, estimated to !e due from that
corporation. He was to receive commis
sions not exceeding $30,000 for his ser
vices in collecting taxes and 10 per cent,
on claims collected from the United States
Pipe Line and American Transfer Com
pany, both controlled by the Standard.
This agreement, the Attorney General
says, was not executed by Patterson, nor
has he made any claim for any compensa
tion.
The best trade Uncle Sam ever made
was that by which the French ceded
Louisiana to the United States. "What
was then known as Louisiana now con
tains over 8,000,000 inhabitants and about
$2,000,000,000 of assessed wealth, and it
will not be many decades hence when this
territory will include more inhabitants
than all France. Louisiana was ceded
when the Democratic party was in power
iu this country. The best trade of a similar
nature made for Uncle Sam since.the Re
publican party came into power was the
purchase of Alaska for about $7,000,000.
This valuable country (valuable to the
seal monopoly) is inhabited by some 2,000
civilized beings and 40,000 Esquimaux
blubber eaters. It is believed by persons
familiar with Alaska that it will hold its
own, as regards population, provided it
meets with no serious drawbacks.
Three of the Princes in France have
been put on the retired list of the French
army. The Due d’ Aumale is one of the
four sons now living of King Louis Phil
lippe. He inherited , a lortune from the
Condbs, and has gathered a valuable his
torical collection of paintings, manu
scripts, relics and bric-a-brac. He is a
General of division in the French army.
The Due d’ Chartres is a son of the Due
d' Orleans, and a grandson of King Louis
Phiilippe. The Due d’ Orleans died be
fore his father’s abdication. The Due
d’ Chartres, whose brother, the Compte
d’ Paris, is the Orleanist heir to the throne,
but who is now without rank in the army,
was Colonel of the Twelfth Regiment of
Chasseurs. The Due d’ Alencon is the
youngest son of the Due d’ Nemours, and
Is also grandson of King Louis Philippe.
He is a Captain in the artillery.
The Wisconsin Legislature, in its hurry
to enact some law requiring house owners
to provide proper means of egress in case
of fire, has narrowly escaped passing a
measure which would require every pas
senger elevator in the State to be rebuilt,
and a certain patented arrangement sub
stituted in their stead. The bill was in
troduced soon after the terrible tragedy in
the Newhall House in Milwaukee, and
passed the State Senate without attract
ing any considerable amount of-attention.
Indeed, the “job’’ in the bill was so nicely
covered up by the stringency of the other
provisions, that it never excited the least
suspicion from the worthy legislators.
Luckily the lower house has not yet acted
on the measure, and it will probably be
killed there.
The voice of New England seems to be
generally in favor of tariff" reform. The
Boston Journal (Rep.) says: “Our Re
publican Congressmen may rest assured
that they will not receive a very cordial
reception home by their constituents if
they fail to pass a tariff bill. It is the
one thing most needed to give an impetus
to busines§.’’ The Advertiser (Rep.) says:
“The blunder of Republicans who vote
for the proposed rule, and so against a
necessary reduction of the tariff, is far
greater than any blunder contained in the
Senate bill.” It is about time New Eng.
land grew ashamed of playing the roll of
pauper.
Bismarck’s paper, the Morth German
Gazette, refers reproachfully to the fact
that the North German Lloyd Company
has ordered from a well known Clyde firm
a couple of steamers, each of 5,200 tons
burden and 6.000 horse power. Such con
duct. it suggests, is both unpatriotic and
anti-protectionist —two very heinous
faults in the eyes of the German Chancel
lor 'and his accredited organs. If Bis
march would copy our navigation laws,
he might feel happier, bat perhaps be is
not anxious to kill German commerce.
If there is any difference between im.
porting coolies and bringing over “pau.

place of American laborers, it is so slight
that the finest figuring would be required
to show it. Truly, the barons are warm
friends of the workingman, when the lat.
.er is as docile as a subdued mule.

What Shall Be Dime About It?
Much is being said and written about
the rapid destruction of American forests
—startling prophecies uttered of the
bald and desolate future of the hills, of
the rainless sterility of long denuded val
leys, of the transfer of surface soil to the
lengthening delta of shoal-bound torrents
—and crystal rivers once bordered with
living green, reflecting life, animation and
beautv. changed to murky floods of de
struction in winter, and to stagnant pools
divided by glittering sandbeds in summer
all of which, flowing from natural causes,
are sure to happen under any live-to-day
and-die-to-moirow system of industrial
economy, so far as evidence serves we
are warranted in asserting that not a
single extinct, or still existing but effete
empire of the earth, would have
diminished aught of life and vigor, if well
governed, its people had known how and
possessed the will and energy to preserve
the country they professed so mqch to
love. We profess the same amount of
love for our country, and. call it rich,
beautiful and great. So spoke the brave
and patriotic Romans, Greeks, Persians,
Medes. Hebrews, Hindoos and Egyptians,
and yet their empires perished. They
"devoured the land" as clouds of locusts,
and when its substance was gone they
too perished, or sunk down to weakness
and imbecility. If we pursue the same
course of cutting down the forests, destroy
ing vegetation, wearing out the soil, and
floating it away in the streams to form
shoals and obstruct navigation, it will not
be difficult to calculate the period future
history will assign as the beginning of
"the decline and fall” of the American
empire. There will lie less apology offered
for a modern empire well informed on the
great experiences of the past, and fairly
ablaze with the glories of developing
science. There is even danger that the
accurate and fearless historian may
write of the present age, that while
we were lieginning, through the
light of science and the study
of history, to make some effort
toward the preservation of our wonder
fully fruitful country, it appeared, never
theless, tnat all were willing to seize at
every hazard, present fortune, apparent
ly, without the least regard to conse
quences, present or future.
Would we like for this to be written in
history about our dav and generation ?
It is iu our power to prevent it—we can
mould that beginning into an established
system of permanent improvement—we
can acquire fortune without a reckless
di-regard of consequences and with
out destroying the fountains of
human subsistence and wealth, designed
by nature to lie perennial. The hills and
vaileys need not be vandalized or shorn
of their landscape beauty by the enlight
ened agriculturist, nor the serried forests
tie swept as with the liesom of destruc
tion by the considerate woodman. There
are modified forms of procedure, methods
of preservation and reproduction known to
civilization, that will doubtless meet the
approbation of all intelligent men when
made a common purpose aud enforced
throughout the limits oi a State.
But the work must begin, in our
opinion, iu the halls of legislation.
Where there is no legal restraint, there is
not likely to be a pause even in the most
destructive enterprise conducted for pres
ent gain. Education and the press may
reconcile, and even convert the people to
the wannest support of such restraint,
but they are powerless to call a suddeu
halt, and it will be too late to repair when
the work of destruction is complete.
TWENTY YEARS AFTER.
‘•Tle Mills of the Gods Grind Slowly,
but They Grind Exceedingly Fine.”
About twenty years ago an old man
named Kerce and his son were lynched in
Worth county.for alleged cattle stealing.
At that early day, loth in Georgia and
South Carolina, the crime ot cattle steal
ing was a felony, and in South Carolina
was punished by death. The taking off of
Kerce and his son w ithout trial by jury
and legal conviction of the crime for which
they were charged aroused, even at that
time, a deep feeling of indignation among
the law-abiding people of the county, and
efforts were made for the trial of their mur
derers; but they were never tried. As
each term of the court rolled round for the
investigation of the case the court house
of that county, with all its records, has
been burnt, anil so for twenty long years
the course of justice has been delayed.
At the present term of the Superior
Court in that county seventeen of the citi
zens. men of good standing in the com
munity, are to be tried for this act of law
lessness and murdA\ committed twenty
years ago, thus exemplifying the truth of
the caption 6f this article, that the ”mills of
the gods grind slowly, but they grind ex
ceedingly tine.” The long standing of the
case, the fiendishness of the murder, as
will le gradually rttposed during the
trial, together with the standing of a
number of the accused, will doubtless in
vest the occasion with intense interest,
and its final disposition will place it on
the records as one of the most remarkable
trial in the annals ot criminal juris
prudence.
The story of the murder is thus recount
ed from memory by a gentleman now
connected with the Macon Graphic as it
was related to him, and is substantially
as follows:
Before the late civil war there emigrated
from one of the Carolinas a man named
George Kerce, who settled in Worth coun
ty. in what is known as the Warwick
district, it being one of the finest grazing
sections of the State. He immediately en
tered into the cattle and woo] raising
business. Things went prosperously with
him, and in a few years he had quite a
snug 6um of money as the reward of his
labor. But there were dark whisperings
about him and hi 6 transactions, and it
was bruited about the county that he was
a cattle steaier. These whisperings soon
assumed the potency of open accusations,
which issued in warrants charging Kerce
with cattle stealing.
Old man Kerce pursued the even tenor
of his way, allowing himself to be dis
turbed by these persecutions as little as
possible.’ He was a man of powerful
phvsique and nerve. He would pitch in
to his accuser, then pay him for the cattle
alleged to have been stolen, and by “su
garing” tbe court house fellows would
manage to keep out of the meshes of the
law.
Afterwards there came threats of lynch
ing, and Kerce kept his house barricaded,
with plenty of powder and ball within,
and his negroes and boys with himself to
do the shooting in case of an attack.
At last, one night a mob started out to
capture old man Kerce, and they had not
proceeded very far liefore they overtook
the old man’s son. They oarried this boy
on to the house and made him call hi’s
father out. In this way they captured the
old man when he was unarmed and com
ing to answer the call of his beloved child.
Securing their prize, the lynchers carried
him and his child to a spot near the bank 6
of Swift Creek and proceeded to put Mr.
Kerce out of existence.
There is a version of the affair which re
counts the scene around the captured
lion not surpassed in cruelty and inhu
manity by the uncivilization of cannibals.
The old man was put to torture, and when
the spark of life ceased to glow in his
breast, he was thrown into the creek, his
body weighted. Then followed a consul
tation as to wbat should be done with the
boy, his little son, which consultation (it
will be substantiated) was presided over
by a preacher. After deliberation it was
decided to kill the child in order to
destrov all the living evidence of
their ’bloody work, and accordingly a
similar fate' was made of the child, and
when a few weeks after the old mfkn
Kerce"s body was found weighted down in
the creek, near by was found the corpse
of his little boy, similarly disposed oi.
There was a’feeble attempt made at each
court to bring tbe parties to justice, until
very lately, when Henry Morgan, a dis
tinguished member of' the Albany bar,
took the prosecution of the case in hand
and has worked patiently, until he has
weaved a coil of evidence around seven
teen of the mob who were engaged in this
horrid crime, and who are to be tried at
Isabella at the coming term of the Supe
rior Court in Worth county.' In connec
tion with this case it is a remarkable
fact that every time the case
has been approached lor trial
heretofore, tbe court house has been
burned down as previously stated. It has
been destroyed by fire three times. Judge
Richard Lyon and Colonel R. K. Hines, of
Macon, remember the case. The latter,
who practiced at the Albany bar for
several years, was well acquainted with
old man Kerce, and says the first fee he
ever earned was for prosecuting the old
man in Doolv county for hog stealing. He
save that Ke’roe was a terrible case, and
a curse to the country at that time, but
that his murder and that of his little son
was most fiendish, and a tearful blot upon
the countv.
Since the above was written, we learn
that Worth Superior Court adjourned
Tuesday afternoon, and the members of
the bar all came in. Only one of the
fendants in the celebrated Kearee case
was tried, and he was acquitted.

the latter to take up a certain subject for

that this action shall lie in one way and

President Arthur advised Congress, in
! his recent altle and statesmanlike mes

tarifl' tax levy. One house has perfected
a bill which is in no sense sweeping iu its
changes—a bill which, in fact, could
scarcely make fewer reductions and lie
called a reform bill; jet which revenue
I reformers are willing to accept of the
I principle of a qarter loaf being preferable
to no bread at all. The other nouse, con
trolled by a majority of the President’s
1 own party, not only opposes even this
! mild and timid bill, but goes to unheard
of lengths in parliamentary jugglery to
kill it. That is the answer ef a Republi

Sir Godfrey Kneller, the painter, was,
like some living artist 9, very conceited.
He lived next to Dr. Radcliffe, and there
was a door between their two gardens;
and. as the painter's servants stole the
doctor's flowers, he sent word that he
would close the gate. “Do anything with
It but paint it,” said the doctor. “I

There is a dark red line on the matting
of the House of Commons ruled about a
pace from the benches. Its origin is
almost contemporaneous with the estab
lishment of a Parliament. It was for the
purpose of preventing members from
drawing their swords on each other. The
old use of the line is, of course, abrogat
ed, but it is still considered out of order
for any member in debate to outstep it by
six inches.
A Kentucky boy of intelligence, who

years old, has never spoken to his father.
All manner of ingenious devices have
been used to get the child to do so, but he
is just as ingenious in avoiding the traps
set for him. He has great respect for his
father, and follows him about oyer the

give him no shoes until he should ask hiß
father for them. The boy went barefooted

A singular accident lietell a German
laundress, Cordine Bernheuner, in New
Y'ork on Monday. She was leaning out of
a third-story window to dry her clothes.
The sash was low and she lost her balance,
falling to the glass roof of a machine shop
below. The iioor woman crashed through
this obstacle, and ended her career on a
circular saw which was making 3,000
revolutions a minute. It was some seconds
before the machinery could lie stopped,
but the woman survived the shock and
died in the hospital an hour afterward.
Eating on wagers being the fashion just
now, the story of Marshal Villars’ Swiss
soldier is apropos: “How many rounds of
beef can you eat?” the Marshal asked
one day. "Ah, Monseigneur, I cau eat a
great many—five or six, at least.” “And
how many legs of mutton?” “Logs of
mutton? Vot many—seven or eight.”
“And ducks?” “Oh,clucks? Not many—
a dozen.” “And pigeons?” “Oh, as re
gards pigeons, Monseigneur, not many—
fortv, perhaps fifty, according to appe
tite.*” “And larks: how many of them
can you eat?” “Larks, Monseigneur,
larks—forever.”
“The number of guests at a model din
ner party should not exceed twelve or
fourteen,” says Mr. Thomas Hankey, a
well-known and wealthy London diner
out. 2. Keep the dining room cool aud
well ventilated. 3. Sit down to dinner at
8:15, without waiting for guests who may
be absent. 4. Return to the drawing room
at 9:30 to 9:45. 5. Reduce the present
number of dishes. If this were done, Mr.
Haukey says, London dinners might lie
what they ought to be —from the materials
to be collected in London society—the
most agreeable reunions in the world.
The silver wedding of the Crown Prince
aud Princess of Germany brings out many
reminiscences in the English journals.
The present leader of the House of Lords,
held the same jpsition at the time of the
marriage, as it was his duty to convey to
the Peers the message of the Queen an
nouncing the intended marriage. Crino
line. at that period, was at the height of
its ascendancy. The door through which
the bridal procession had to pass into the
Chapel Royal, and which had sufficed for
the wedding party of Queen Anne and
George 111., had to be enlarged to make
room for the dresses.

During a brief visit to the ancient town
of Warwiek, R. 1., recently, our agent ex
tended his trip to the southeastern ex
tremity of the town, to look about among
the wonderful improvements which have
been made in the appearance of Warwick
Neck during a comparatively brief period,
and while conversing on this subject with
Col. Benjamin 8. Hazard, the jopular
proprietor of the Warwick Neck Hotel, he
learned that the greater part of the hand
some summer residences had been erected
inside of a dozen j’ears; and he also
learned that Col. Hazard had been a great
sufferer from a chronic disease of the Kid
neys and Bladder over fifteen rears,
the most painful form of it being a
stoppage or retention of the
urine, which was so very severe at
times as to disable him for his accustomed
work, aud even confine him to the bed,
when a surgeon’s assistance would be re
quired to relieve turn. He was being doc
tored a large part of the time, but could
get no permanent relief. At times his
sufferings were terrible from sharp, cut
ting pains through the Kidnevs and Blad
der; and he had suffered so long and so
severely that he had become discouraged
of getting well again, especially as the
doctor stated that it was doubtful if a
man of his age, with such a complicated
disease oflong standing, could be cured.
But last summer, when he wafe suffering
intensely from one of those attacks, a
gentlem'an who was boarding at his hotel
urged and persuaded him to try a bottle
of Hunt’s Remedy, as he had known of
some wonderful cures effected by it.
Mr. Hazard says he had uo faith in it,
but consented reluctantly to try it; and
alter taking it only two days, the intense
pains and aches had disappeared, and he
commenced to gain strength rapidly, and
in less than a week was attending *to his
accustomed work, and has never had a
return of the pains. Mr. Hazard is over
seventy years of age, aud ou the 25Ui of
November, 1882, when our agent met him,
although it was a very cold and bluster
ing day, he was in the field with his team
at work pulling and loading turnips, as
hale and hearty a man as you could wish
for, whereas last August 'he was unable
to stand up to oversee the work then going
on in this same field.
nunt’s Remedy had given him health
and strength again, aud he recommends
it to his relatives and friends, several of
whom are now taking it, as he considers
it a most excellent medicine for all dis
eases of Kidneys or Bladder.
The Bad and Worthless
are never imitated or counterfeited. This
is especially true of a familj' medicine,
and it is positive proof that the remedy
imitated Is of the highest value. As soon
as it had been tested and proved by the
whole world that Hop Bitters was the
purest, best and most valuable family
medicine On earth, many imitations sprung
up and began to steal the notices in which
the press and people of the country had
expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every
way trying to induce suffering in
valids to use their stuff instead, expect,
ing to make money on the credit ana good
name of 11. B. >fany others started nos
trums put up in similar style to H. 8.,
with variously devised names In which
the word “Hop” or “Hops” were used in
a way to induce people to believe they
were the same as Hop Bitters. All 6uch
pretended remedies or cures, no matter
what their style or name is, and especially
those with the word “Hop” oy “Hops” iii
their name or in any way connected with
them or their name, are imitations or
counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch
none of them. Use nothing but genuine
Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of
green Hops on the white label. Trust
nothing else. Druggists and dealers are
warned against dealiug in imitations or
counterfeits.

myself (a practicing physician) and other
doctors onlv palliatea my wife’s chronic, two
years standing, inflammation of the bladder.

are extracts from a letter of Dr. C. M. Sum

“I have had kidnev disease for 30 years,”
writes Mrs. Sarah Phillips, of Frankfort. N.
