literature. The engraving "a Little Higher" is
decidedly emblematic of the Book. Excelsior is
his motto, and the Book is a little higher than
any of its contemporaries.

between these two and the intermediate

place coaches upon the route TO accommo-
date the public. The coaches will leave

PENNSYLVANIA RAiLROAD--STATE TAX
ON TONNAGE. NO. 3.

Will the State lose by the abatement of
the tax on the tonnage of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Before answering this question, il
is necessary to inquire what is meant by
sustaining loss. individuals who have cal
culated upon rea lizing large amount from
some profitable speculation, will estimate as
a loss anything below the realization of their
most sanguine anIicipations. And if the
State expects 10 compel the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company TO bear the weigh, OF her
public debt, and TO extoTt from The company,
in the shape of taxes, sufficient 10 pay the
annual interest on the forty millions of liza.
billies which have been contracted, we are
free 10 admit that this expectation may not
be realized. But with what shadow of JUS
lice could an individual be made chargeable
with the debts OF whole community? What
proprieiy would there be 10 singing out one
corporation and subjecting it 10 burdens from
which others Of the same class are exempt

SUICIDE IN PRIsoN.-A convict, named
John Geiger, committed suicide in the
Montgomery County Prison, on Monday
night, the 2lst ult., by tying cord around
his throat and thereby producing strangula-
ton. In the morning he was lonnd lying
on his bed, with his aims on his breast and
his feet crossed, and had died without an ap-
parent struggle. He was convicted some
three years ago, for Burglary and intent TO
commit Murder, in Upper Hanover tp., and
was sentenced TO eight years solitary con-
finement. He was removed from The Eas-
tern Penientiary 10 the Montgomery Couu-
ty Prison, in February, 1852, and since his
confinement here has occasoned considera-
ble trouble by his discontented and morose
disposition. He continually dwelt upon the
long term of his confinement, and often de.
claGed that he would rather die than serve
ont his time. A short time ago, in one of
his disconIented moods, he attempted TO kill
himself by starvation, and actually refused

Discovery OF VALUABLE SILVER MINES.
1t is stated that great excitement has
been created in the towns on the Rio
Grande, opposite FL Paso, by The discovery
OF some very valuable silver mines OH the
eastern slope OF The mountains, about sky
miles northeast of Donna Ana. The ore is
found in immense quantities directly on the
surface of the ground, and several ions of il,
have already been gathered. The Houston
Telegraph says:
''One mine is so rich ,ha'i,he silver is ex.
'racted readily by melting il with common
log fire of pine. Lead ore is also found in
extensive veins, trayersing the rocks in ev-
cry direction We are informed that thou
sands of tons Of lead ore, similar 10 that OBJ
tanned al the lead mines near Galena, can
be gathered on the surface of The ground, on
the mountains east of FL Paso. There is a
large hill near the silver mines, that might
with proprety be styled the lead mountain
as it seems to be an immense mast OF gale
ma or lead ore. If we may believe the ac-
counts of persons who have visited these
mines, they must te far more extensive and
valuable than any OF the mines in Illinois or
Wisconsin"

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR, DATED
Columbia House, Phiid.,
March % 1883

The trial Of Arthur Spring, for The murder
of Ellen Lynch and Honora Shaw, is now
the most exciting topic in the city. The
Court room is crowded TO excess every day,
in order to get sight Of the Prisoner. This
is probably one of the most cold blooded
tragedies that ever occurred in the annals of
crime. The tale of the dreadful butchery
Of two innocen. females-one Of them with
twin children but a few weeks old is, of
itself, sufficiently horribly. The fact Of the
son branding the father as the murderer is
familiar 10 all but that the father should at
tempt 10 fasten it upon the son involves this
terrible drama with a still more intense in.
terest There is but one opinion mere, and
tha, is that the father alone is guilty.
The Sudbury and Erie Railroad question
still remains unsettled, but have reason 10
believe that measures are IN progress, that
will, before long, bring matters to crisis,
and if am not mistaken, secure a subscrip.
tion from both the city and county or dis.
trcts, TO the amount of Four millions. was
informed by two gentlemen who take a deer
interest in the matter that they knew q
number of individuals who were ready iC
subscribe million of dollars as soon as the
city subscription was made.
Philadelphia has done very heavy bust
ness this season and every thing seems pros
porous The New Workers, however, hav,
had some pressing times within the past twt
weeks. Spectators there have becom,
perfectly wild, and the result has been
revision in the money market and consider
able smashing among the capitalists. Thi
city has had no such difficulties, and thing
here, have, thus far, moved OH quietly an,
pTosperously.
Many articles have risen considerably il
price, especially The metals, such as iron, lin
copper, zinc and lead. Block tin is on
hundred per cent higher Than it was yea
ago, and lead has advanced from so 10 7
per cent. Much of this advance is no doub
10 be attributed 10 the enormous influx G
gold into this Country and England from III
mines OF California and Australia.
