The KENrucKy GrANr.-It appears that there
really is giant the keeper of public house
on the bank of the Ohio who is sort Of human
mastadon, (without the humbug.) A clerical cor
respondent Of the Christian Watchman lately
paid him visit, and says that he is perfect
wonder in human shape, walking like an ele.
phant. and looking like man from another
world. lie measures eight feet and six inches
in height. In gazing at this man, says his cler.
ical visitor, tive felt an awe greater than that
produced BY the presence Of king, and kind
ofshrinking away into our own littleness. 1t
reminded us Of the report Of the spies sent by
Moses from the wilderness of Paren to search
out the land of Canaan, who said on return

and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers

D TAX ON CoAL-The revenue bill is now
before the Senate. We are pleased. TO see that
the odious and unjust tax on coal has been strick
en- out by that body. This is well. Such tax
could never have been collected. With the same
propriety we might tax lumber, iron ore, lime
stone, wheat, corn and other productions of the
soil 1t was, however, in character with all the
proceedings of the powers that be.

GO The Washington Correspondent, of the
Philadelphia Ledger ofApril llth, says:
Mr.. Winthrop, in the House this morning,
asked the privilege of making personal explain
alton, the first request of the kind he had ever
made TO the House. He referred to the charge
yesterday made by Mr.. Yancey, in course of his
discussion on the motion 10 reconsider Mr.. In.
rensioned agent OF Eastern manufacturers. Mr..
Winthrop said he was now authorized to declare,
that Mr.. Webster did no: hold and never had held
share of manufacturing stock, nor had he ever
been in the enjoyment of any fund raised for
his benefit by the manufacturers. On Monday
last he had learned Mr.. Webster was waited upon
by committee, and informed him that certain
wealthy merchants Of Boston not manu- facfuyers,
had voluntarily subscribed fund, which they
proposed to invest, and appropriate the proceeds
as "a life annuity TO himself and family. Mr..
Webster had not yet signfed his acceptance OF
the offer. Mr.. Winthrop read letter addressed
to Mr.. Webster, in which his public services are
enumerated, the vcis.itudes of life. and particu.
iarly the chances of old age set before him, and
be was entreated TO accept the profered funds as
an acknowledgment Of services rendered in be-
half of the cause Of commerce in times past, and
for his personal convenience and the comfort oi
his family in time to come. II had not been de-
cided what course Mr.. Webster would pursue,
and yesterday he tMr. Winthrop was ignorant
of the facts stated.
In reply to Mr.. Yaneey, as to the amount oi
this fund, Mr., Winthrop said that he did not feel
that he had any right ofsearch' with the private
affairs ofany one, but as the people Of Boston
seldom did any thing by halves, the sum intima
ted Goo ,ooo) was probably correctly stated.
Mr.. Ssreey disclaimed any intention to inter
fere with the private affairs fany man. HI
had spoken Of Mr.. Webster a. public man, ane
the annuity was intended o. reward foE services
asa public man.

The WHEAT CRor.-We continue to receive
encouraging reports, says the Chicago Journal, in
regard to the wheat crop throughout Illinois. 1t
not only looks better, but much larger crop has
been sown than in any previous year. The ac-
counts from the Northern section Of the State, as
also from Wisconsin, are equally favorable. The
wheat crop throughout Georgia, it is said, never
looked more promising than at this time, and
should the harvest prove as abundant ~ is now
anticipated, it will greatly relieve the wants OF
the people from the present scarcity Of grain.

or The Tariff bill of Mr.. Mckay has been
reported in Congress. The scale Of duties va.
ries from to rs per cent. Iron Of all kinds to
pay duty Of 80 per cent. Sugars, woolens and
silks, to pay the same duty. II the revenues
should fall short, then duty of 10 per cent is
to be imposed on tea and coffee. We do not
think the bill will be passed.

A member Of Congress has addressed US note,

boldness and also that the Mexico Texan army
will never reach the Rio Grande, and if they do,
will not fight our army.

MEXICAN AFEAIRs.-The Courier des E.
tats Unis. usually very well informed about
Mexican affairs, and protesting to speak in this
instance upon the most reliable authority, gives
the following information.
"TEe different sections Of the republican par
ty in Mexico had, at the latest dates, resolved
to unite against the common danger, and had ta-
ken measures to invite Santa Anna to return to
Mexico. and assume the position Of chief of the
republican party. Their overture had been ia
vorsbly received by the exiled President. He
had stipulated that, in case of his return, he
would submit to the people the election Of .
new President ofthe Republic. and retire HIM
selft private life. The Courier processes to
have seen q confidential letter OF Santa Annals
companion in exile, Signor Rejon, in which the
grounds of the ex-dictaior's conversation to re-
publicsnism are set forth, and its sincerity
warmly asserted. Rejon has also published a
pamphlet explaining the reasons which led San
ts Anna, and himself as Minister, to approve
the DEGREES of the Goth of November and the I'd
OF December. 1874. to dissolve the Congress, re.
strain the liberty of the press, and to assume
dictstoral power. The purpose Of these stropg
measures Rejon alleges to be the eoncen,ra'
tion Of the Mexican force against Texas The
Mexican Congress gave only lukswarm sup
port, he says 10 that movement, and was there
fore dissolved. The return of Santa Anna Ia
Mexieo does not, however. in the judgment o
the Courier. indicate further wsFliks move
ments on the part of Mexico"

GS COLLECTOR OF Tolls AT NoRrHrMBER.
LANp.-The Canal Commissioners have at last
made an appointn for Collector at Northum.
berland by substituting John H. Morrison, of
Centre county for Mr.. John Youngman. Mr.
Youngman, irb his official capacity, had given
such general satisfaction, that the impression
was that he would no; be removed. But the
majority of the Board, to secure their own nte-
rests, were obliged to consult the wishes of O..
thers hence the necessity of taking officers from
a distance. We have nothing to say against MIR.
Morrison. We presume, judging from a slight
acquaintance, that he will make good officer.
But We did think, if it was necessary to remove
faithful and experienced officer, a successor
could have been found nearer home.
G- Next CONGRESSMAN A CORES pondent of
the Union Times strongly recommends Alexan-
der Jordan Esq, Of this place, as the Democ ratio
candidate for Congress, at the next election The
writer very properly states that local preferen-
ces should, at the present time at least, be set
side, and popular and strong man be taken up.
We were of the same opinion at the late Con-
gressional election. Aware of the difficulties
that existed among our democratic friends of Ly-
coming county, we urged the nomination Of Mr..
Jordan at that time. We do not think that Mr..
Jordan is desirous of the nomination. but we are
confident that he will not decline, should his
friends see proper 10 place him in nomination for
that important Office.
The Harrisburg Union, in referring to the sub.
ject, says:
"Mr. Jordan is sound democrat--a gentle.
man of popular manners, and would do more to
reconcile the conflicting interests in this district
than any gentleman who has been named. There
is clear democratic majority in this Congress
sional district, and all it requires on the part o
our friends, is united action, to secure it. Let j
be done'
