A Washington dispatch to the New
York Graphics-Ays it is not true that the
House committee on the judiciary have i
ti rennrt a.Uvrselv mum what I
is known as the I lair memorial of the
Maryland legislature and the Kimmcl
bill, rdatiuj; the re-owning of the
Presidential qtiostion. The committee
have never considered the subject.
ToihccoTax to ins IUcuuckj). We
notice a 'communication published in the
-Jrft,y7-u'C!'.' oralis, i.lacc, fi-uio iT-"!77 W.
M. Hobbins, wliich slates that the House
by a majority of 31 had agreed to reduce j
the tobacco tax to 10 cents, and that be
had made careful inquiry as to the views
of Senators and was assured that the
Senate would likewise pass the bill.
Better late thau never.
Surely, the Laadnwrk does not mix
among the people, and learns little or
nothing of public sentiment with regard
to the County and Judicial conventions,
when it prates of satisfaction and har
mony, as to some of the nominations
made, and the means used to defeat, :f
possible, the will of the people in choos
ing their public servants. Democratic
politicians will not only cheat republi
cans, but likewise men of their own par
tyfor it is their nature so to do-to
secure office. The people are beginning
to learn to take care of themselves, with
out the intervention of caucus and pack
ed conventions, and will vote fin men of
their own selection, independent of dic
tation, as they should.
The Landmark denies for lr. Mc
Corkle that he is in favor of a ''county
division," &c. 'We have no d.sire to
misrepresent Pr. McC. upon that or any
other question, but our information was
to the contrary, and our opinion is that,
the only obstacle in the way of such a
measure, would be the opposition from
others to the improper partition of the
county to its great injury. The L"td

no stock in Mr. -Montgomery lllair'sex

To-day is one of Hie greatest iu the
history of (Gettysburg. Last evening,
President Hayes, Secretaries McCrary
and Devens, about thirty Senators and
ilepivseiitatives, including lion. W. M.
Unbbins a'nl other persons of note, nr
r'ved henLwa special train from Wasli
ir .'.i.ii. The usual han.bhaking and
serenades were enjuyed during the even
ing. ids mornn.v people in toe
surrounding coufitry turned out fi nitts.se
an. I mtuilrcils ot excursionists arrived
from Washington, New York and other
points. About 1 o'clock it began to
rain and many thought the exercises of
the afternoon would be stopped, but they
did not fully understand 1'enusylvania
patriotism. The processiou formed iu
the public square at 1:40, the appointed
time. Quite a large crowd soon gather
ed a round the speaker's stand in the
National Cemetery, where an oration
was delivered by lien. Henj. V. Butler,
one of the chosen orators for the occa
sion. The audience listeued attentive
ly, though compelled to stand in the
falling rain, most of them without um
brellas. Then a few appropriate re
marks were made in the. following order
by Ex-liov. Curtin, President Hayes,
Secretaries Devensaud MeCrnry. After
tin? speeches there was a general stam
pede for home.
The few Confederate grave known
here were beautifully decorated in tho
morning by some friends, l'rcs't Hayes
and party left at (j o'clock, and the last
f the excursionists followed soon after.
Thus has come and gone another day
celebrated in honor of brave men w ho

The Bankrupt Law.
The Charlotte Democrat, Hillsboro
En-order, and others of our leading
papers say there is no relief in bank
ruptcy for the debtor owing old debts.
How these influential and well in
formed journals can fall into such
gross error, passes our comprehension.
The case is a plain one. In this
State debtors are not entitled in the
State courts to a homestead against
old debts. The Judgement creditor
can sell out to satisfy old debts, ev
erything a man has, even this bilde
and prayer book, if he has one. The
old exemptions of the Uevised Code
were .-..nealed ill 18C8. Heillg tllll3
sold out he is deprived of nil hi
property, and still owes all his debts,
except the portion satisfied by sale
of the homestead. His wife and chil
dren are turned out of doors, and he
is still the slave of his debts.
In bankruntev according to Sena
tor Stanley Mathews Judge Milleij
Jude David Davis and otherleadi
lawyers, tlie bankrupt is entitled
the hoiuesteail exemption in
State, and $500 worth ol pe
property under the bankrupt,
These eminent jurists say
Justice aite is wrong
ert decision, and tl
baukrvptcy has pow
e-iiUio. reiioacmi:;
iiidL'emcWfrTfT"
Now granting that they are not right,
still a bankrupt in this State can get
a discharge from all his debts and
have exempted to him personal prop
erty to the value of $500 in addition
V . . , r I If
to Ins wearing apparat ior muiseii
and family. So that it is right to
say that tho homesteader if he
must part wltu ins uoroe can nu
great rel'ef iu bankruptcy. If he
stay out and is sold out he is not
even entitled under State laws to
the clothes which he and his wife and
children wear. In bankruptcy he
gets good personal property exemp
tions and a discharge nom an ins
debts with a fair prospect of saving
his homestead. -Cor. Mai. Observer.
