The receiver claimed that thej knew the president' was using the bank's money in his specu lations. : A strange sound aroused the people of Meadville, Pa., from their beds at night about 12 o'clock re cently. Oa going out upon the street to discover the cause the citizens saw that the ky was literally black with wild geese, ducks and Bwan. The birds had become bewildered by the electric lights and hundreds, and possibly thousands of them; were circling in various directions over the city, their "honk" furnishing a chorus -1 that made sportsmen ache to try a shot or two. A gentleman climbed to the top of one of the highest build ing at S o'clock, and at that hoar the birds were flying about by hundreds in all directions. This was kept up until daylight, when the fowls were able to continue their course, and sopn disappeared from view. j e A simple, homely remedy tat many tree ailments and enemie is wood ashes or, if not to be had, coal aahos frith a sprinkling of lijae but aahesj B8h io beused freer before malening (against frost or drought); after mulching, (bat no tree enemieB may harbor therein, the mulching its&if, when gathered up, to be burned and returned to the trees.

Alexander for Governor, and much of their doctrine and expressions we re gard as intemperate and untimely. Notably we refer to a newspaper item in the last issue of the Progressive Ihrvier representing a conversation between a Farmer and a Lawyer. The Farmer said, or was made to say, "That he and all the Farmers were in favor of the nomination of Capt. Alex ander, and if they did not get him they would1 have no one else," or words to that effect, (we have loaned out the paper to a farmer). Now these kind of expressions, we think, are not oeily intemperate, but wrong in every sense of the word. We are for Fowle f or Governor and Alexender for Lieut. Governor, not that we love Alexan der less, but that we love Fowle more. nave we any ngnt to say that if we did hot get Fowle we would have no one else? This would be undemocratic aid unwise in the extreme. jShould Fowle be defeated for the nomination aad Capt. Alexander se cure the prize, we would work just as hard and vote just as cheerfully for Alexander as we would have done for Fowle, and should the reverse of this proposition b true, we know every democratic farmer will act the same way. ' i ' ' . The proper course to pursue in the approaching contest in order to assure success is for every democrat to atick close to the party nominee 'hetber we get our choice or not. are our ideas of party fealty upon these lines we intend to do e.

WAsmioTON, May 3-Sesatb Mr. Stewart introduced a bA to execute certain treaty BtipnltroDt prohibiting Chinese immigration. Referred to the committee cn for eign relation. The railroad land grant for a future bill was taken up and anenied s as to exclude from its provisions the portage land canal Co. and the On tonagon and Brule River R. R. Co., both of; ; Michigan. Amendments were also adopted relating to the course of procedure by the land office officials in carrying, it nto effect. The bill then went over, and the bill for the establishment of the bureau of animal industry was taken up. Mr. Palmer addressed the Sen ate in support of the bill and Mr. Vest opposed it. He proceeded to speak of what he called "The cattle syndicate" and said that the people were helpless and writhing under it. It was the most terrible tyranny e7er exeroised There were five men or firms in Chicago which regulated the price! of cattle every day. They met and fixed prices for the next day so that these men owned the cattle raiser's property and confiscated it as absolutely as if they possessed the right to take it from his farm without paying him one cent. "Talk?, said Mr. Yes', "about trusie, the cattle pool of Chicago is the most infamous tyranny that ever existed in the Uni ted States.. They have got their col lar on the cattle producers of the en tire West and I know no remedy for it. The statesman who would invent a remedy would deserve a monu ment! more enduring than the Capitol. He would put the highest benefac tion on tbe people of the northwest and the cattle raisws of the country." Mr, Plujib had also something to say on the same subject. In his opinion the worst combination in the country was the combination of beef and pork packers, having its headquarters in Chicago, j There was no trustor com bination standard oil trust, sugar trust, copper trust or , any other trust? that had had bo powerful or so baleful; an influence as that com bination. I Under the operation of this trust, prices of cjttle had de clined unnecessarily and tivelyr Itj was safe to say destruc that on old and every steer of three years upwards ( 'raised West of the Mississippi rivor during tho past five yearsj the market value had been I by it his combination reduced not less than ten dollars a head. The damage to the State of Kansas alone during that period of tune naa oeea more ji had forty million dollars, and the wealth of i he syndicate had grown proportionately. Mr) Blair spoke in favor of the bill, favoring morj particularly the commission-feature of it because of the confidence he felt in the judgment and integrity of the appointing power (the President), and the confirming power itue senate), ihe bill then went over and the Senate went into secret session. When the doors were re-opened a bill was passed te perfect the quaran tine service of the United States. It imposes a punishment of a fine of not more; than $30Q or imprisonment for not more than 30 dajs or both upon any person, master, pilot or owner of a vessel entering any United States port in violation of the quarantine regulations framed under the act to prevent the introduction of infectious or contagious diseases into the United States. It provides for the establish ment of additional quarantine stations at the mouth of Delaware Bay, the entrance j of Chesapeake Bay near Capej Charlee, on the Georgia coast. at or near Key West and at several Pacific const points. Appropriations were: made as iouows lor trie con struction and maintenance ot quaran tine etatiOLs: Delaware Bay, $75. 000; Capb Charles, Va., $112,000; South Atlantic Station, $38,500; Key West, $88,000: Gulf quarantine (for merly Ship Island), $lo,QOO. Adjourned. i BOUSE. Mif. Bajmont, of Now York, pre sented aqd tbe House adopted the conference report oh the joint resolu tion accepting on behalf of the United States th0 invitation of the French Republic to take part in the Interna tional Exposition to ba held in Paris in 1880.;(The commissioner represent- ing the United States wi'.l receive a salary of 810,000 ) The Hjuse then went into commit tee of the whore (Mr. Springer, of Il linois, in the chair), on the tariff bill. Mr. Wilson, of West Virginia, mem ber of the ways and means committee, said that the opponents of the bill rep resented the issue to be between free trade and protection. It was rather an effort of the people to recover the right to tax themselves. The rule that only thoBe who paid the taxes should impose taxes was the univer sal test o free government, but after twenty-fie years of protection pri vate interests had no entered into the tariff and ! had bo over-borne public interests 1 that they regarded it as their exclusive domain and resented the intrusion of the people as that of trespassers. In this tone and with this assumption they spoke through the press land even through their ad vocates oh this floor. This was not new. Sii years ago, when a demand came frdm the country for a re duction of taxen, so urgent that not even the Republican Congress could neglect, it, the chairman of the committee oa ways and means, came intohe House, not with a bill to re duse the people's taxes, or stay the unneeded flow ot their money into the Treasury, but with a set argu- iA- .1 i.i - , men. to prove tuat the people a rep resentatives were not capable of fram ing a bfll to tax the people. The iimvoupess yielded to nis argu ment ana numtJiy invited the pro tecieu interests to raaktt known their wishes to Oocgreps through a com mission, the majority of whom they were permitted to select. But privi lege grows with what it feeds upon, and even rises to higher tones. Time was when the test of loyalty to the country was devotion to the Union in its struggle for it preserva tion. Lately, however, the country had been told that' even a McClellan and a Hancock must be ranked as allies of the Confederacy because of their disloyalty to a particular party. But in this debate a new test had been set up and we have heard the hame of a citizen who stands before the. world a the foremost living rep ref Ltttive of A merican literature, with a long and honorable record of public service behind him, a poet whoe words iu days pas', like Luth er's words, had been '-Battles for freedom, '!itfFee'td" wi h that of Benedic AraolT' because he would not bow down to th futioh of pro tection. Hi repflllod Burrows' criti cisms of thj m-iraer in which this bill was prepared, say eg that such criticisms could not justly be made by those who stood for the defence of the existing law. He said .hat while Our tariff rates were runnicg up irota 18 to 48 p9r cent during-the war and nim )ii itely thereafter every interest, that wished to bscome a parasite on the people was permitted to dictate its own terms aud these terms still remained. The so called revision of 1883 soon turned into a struggle be tween the captains of industry for an increase of their boanties and was finally thrown into secrecy where higher rates were given than either house bad dared to vote in public, and was then hurried through Con gress without being read. There was all the diherence in the world be tween a bill prepared in secret and then presented for months of debate and examination in Congress and be fore the people and a law made in secret and hurried on to the statute book without anybody but the con clave that mtde it understanding its provisions. He criticised the claim of the minori ty that it had reduced taxes and said that whetever reductions had been made had relieved property and thrown the burdens on those least able to bear them so that the tariff could well say, "Whoever else es capes my exactions, the poor I have always with me. There was nothing, be said, that ro vexed the genuine protectionist as a tax that went into the treasury. If ho could not invent a lav for transferring a large part of it from the pocket of the man who earned it to sombody's pocket who did not earn it he wiped it from the statute book and in this way alone had taxes been lessened since the war. He declared that ai in the past so now there was no statesmanship in the Republican party to deal with this great question of the surplus. Each speaker, so far as he gave any bint of his plan: had a different one. Ia conclusion he taid this fight will j go cn. There will be no industrial I peacH in tbe country until tu laws are established upon a basis fair to all. (Applause). We will keep the country rocking from ocean to ocean Until we secure justice and fair deal ing among all citizens. You may strike down that tribune of the peo ple at the other end of the Avenue; who, putting aside all prudence, spoke out a ringing summons that rallied the people nothing ever did be fore. You may strike down the lead ers of this fight as you struck them down in the last CongresB and pre vious Congresses. Those who hold the standard may fall but other hands will take it up and move forward. The spirit of our intellizence is be hind us. The spirit of liberty is be hind'us. AH we can hope for is the destiny and greatness of this country to urge us forward and, in the lan guage of our Speaker, "Whoever may falter, whoever may fail, the people of the country mean that its glorious destinies shall be preserved; that they stall be transmitted unim paired to posterity ; that the countrr shall not belong to mon opolisls on the one hand or to com munists on the other, but shall be as it was designed to be of the. people, for the people and by the people. As Mr. Wilson concluded he was repeatedly applauded by his party friends, while many Republicans joined in compliment and amid the cries of "Vote," "Vote," members crowded around Mr. Wilson and warmly congratulated him upon his speech. : Mr. Dincley, of Maine, discussed at tength the President's and Mr. Mills assumption that dutios on im ported articles, which can be pro duced here to the extent of our wants were taxed, which increased the bur dens of the consumer to the extent or nearly to the extent of the duty, and he argued that on the contrary such duties benefitted the consumer by encouraging nome industries ana se curing products for less labor or service. Referring to the charge that protection had destroyed our foreign carrying trade, Mr. Dinglev said it was true that this has declined, but no more rapidly since the war than in six years before the war. The de clines in our foreign carrying trade have been due, not to protection, but to the want of protection. Our foreign carrying trade had been only an unprotected business in this coun try since 1850, and on contending on free, trade principles with foreign vesA sels it had been driven to the wall at the same time that our protected coastwise trade had flourished. .This should serve as an Object lesson to Congress and the country to stand by protection and to extend it to our shipping in foreign trade by means Of direct aid. Mr. McKinney, of New Hampshire, said he came to the discussion of this q ueslion, not as a free trader ; he believed that the bent means of collecting funds necessary for the support of the government was by tax on imports, but he believed that that tax should be levied as far as might be on luxuries and that what might bo necessary for life, should be placed on tho free list. He was not in favor of any radical change in the tariff laws for the business of the Country was now on a high tariff basis and any radical and sudden change would distatb the business interests. He strongly advocated the placing of wool on the free list, de claring that it would work little in jury to the sheep-growers, while it would greatly benefit woolen man ufactures and give cheap c'othing to the people. It was about time for the gentlemen oa the other side to stop crying out that the Democratic party was seeking to bring disaster upon the country. It was only trying to carry out ihe fundamental princi pies of government and apply equal taxes to all communities. It was marvellous to witness the love of the other side of the house for the Ameri can laborer. How was that labor protected T Why, it was about the only thing in which we did have real' simon-pure free trade. The committee then rr.3e.

Scales (or General, as I prefer to call him), s one of the most elegant gentlemen rvo ever met. I had a letter from Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, of Balti more, to him, and my impression of him is that the executive' of North Carolina comes as near perfection as a gentleman, soldier and statesman as is to be found anywhere. What the Governor of North Carolina said to the Governor of South Carolina was not repeated to me. I guess His Honor thought I was a temperance man.
