THE TARIFF QUEsTIoN.

AS the government, which had a large
surplus Of over twenty millions Of dollars in
the Treasury year or two since, is now
almost bankrupt, the Cabinet is now begin
ming TO look about to replenish the same, and
revised tariff with specific duties is an
event that may be looked for. Forpey
Press says:
"Mr Buchanan has always occupied a
middle, conservative ground on the subject Of
the Tariff. lie voted for the Tariff OF 1912,
though greatly opposed to some of its pro-
visions. lie was member of the Cabinet of
President Polk when the Tariff of lS4G be-
came laI aud made no secret Of his oppO-
siton 10 the UNMARRIED dd rolorcm feature Of
that measure. \ long aud intimate know
ledge of his views on this question, and a
general acQuiescence in them-ludeed. the
steady support which we lways extended TO
these views, even while accepting the Tariff
Of 1916 as party measure enables US TO
speak somewhat distinctly at this time. We
cannot doubt that he entertains them now
for they have always been uchestatingly
ayowed, up to the latest moment"
The Philadelphia Dolly Ns:rS referring TO
the above, thinks the free traders are begin
ming to smell pretty big rat" We trust
after they have smelt sufficiently they will
see the necessity of promptly using some
disinfectiug and other agents to remove the
cause Of the unsayory odor.

Eg CCUNTERFEITERs or CoIY ARRESTED
Two young men, who said they were from
Pittston, Luzerne county, were arrested in
this place on Friday last, for passing counter
felt coin on number Of persons in this
place. They were taken before Esquire l.az-
arus, who instituted an examination Of their
persons, and found upon them forty dollars
in spurious quarters. This bogus coin is
plated and otherwise well got up, and calcu-
lated to deceive tho unwary. 1t can be
readily distinguished, however, by its light
weight and snowy white appearance. In ad-
dition TO the above, forty.six dollars Of the
same coin was found the same day in o coal
heap, on the wharf Of Beard, Bowen q Co,
by Mr.. Beard. The prisoners did not deny
their guilt, but asserted that this was their
first offence On Monday John Hiatt, the
Deputy U. 5. Marshal Of the Western Dis
trict, arriyed. and took them in charge. They
are now confined in the Jail at Williamsport,
aud will be tried by the I. s. District Court,
at that place.

MISSIONARY INsTITuTE.-We are pleased
20 learn that the managers Of the Missionary
Institute have resolved at recent meeting
of the board, in Baltimore to locate their
new Institute Of learning at Selusgrove.
The selection is an admirable one and well
deserved on the part of the good people of
that place, who have exhibited laudable
degree of enterprise and liberality in this
matter Such an Institute will be worth q
half dozen court houses and petty county
offices This Institute is under the auspices
of the general synod of the Lutheran church
Of the United States. There was a meeting
of the committee, at Selihsgrove, on Thurs.
day, to decide upon the location.
Sunbury American. [volume] (Sunbury, Pa.) 1848-1879, 1858-05-15

The Luzerne county papers appear exceed
ingly wrathy on account of the sale Of the
State canals to the Sunbury & Erie railroad,
as they contend, at great sacrifice. Sup
pose this TO be all true. Is not the north
western portion Of tho State, from Lock
Haven to Erie, entitled to as much of gift
or aid from the State as the people Of the
wyoming region, who have received from
the Golfers Of the commonwealth over four
anu half millions Of dollars iu getting up
that hopeful structure called the North
Branch extension, from Tunkhannock to the
State line, SO miles Now ifthe same amount
OF money had been appropriated by the
commonwealth TO the Sunbury & Erie road
it would have been completed years ago, and
the advantages that would have accrued &c
the whole State would have been ten fold
greater than can ever be derived from the
most successful operations of the NORTH
Branch extension.
And why were they not as much entitled
to aid from the State as other portions of the
commonwealth Their isolated position, ant
their inability to construct thoroughiare tC
market, by private enterprise, gave them, i
anything stronger claim than even oul
North Branch friends, to draw upon the
public treasury. If this sale was for th,
benefit of individuals or foreign corporations
there might be some force in their arguments
But as the State is simply nppropriating o.
loanirg portion of her means, or rather het
unproductive property, TO improve another
portion of her domains, who has any right e
complain?

ENsPAPERs-THEIR sERvICEs AND RE
WARD.

We understand that few individuals labor
under a strange delu1ion that weScharged
the Borough for the publication Of the pro-
ceedings Of Council in 1855. Had they ex-
amined the record, they might have seen that
no such charge was made. The Council at
the time, desired their publication, and offer,
ed TO pay, if necessary, but We refused TO make
any charge. Newspapers are seldom ever re-
warded, or even thanked for the faYors they
confer, yet they often expeud more time and
means, IN the advancement Of the interests Of
their ueighbors and the public, than half the
Citizens Of place put together. In some
Quoted paper is so well understood, that re-
gular contrlbuti;ns are made TO its support
while IN other portions, some vaiily imagine
they are couferring great favor, and teke
credit Tor great magnanmity, in becoming
subscribers TO paper, that may be to them
richly worth treble the amount raid for il
while Others think they are doing pretty well
10y paying when convenient Our readers
We know, will do US the justice to say that we
have never been sparing in our time and
means IN the Advancement Of the interests o.
this place and neighborhood. The ordinary
proceedings Of Council should always be pub
lshod, as q matter Of course, and our columns
are always open for that purpose But whal
is Of more importance is that the accounts
Of the Borough should not only be settled bu
be made public az the county auditors reports
are, annually

STEAM vs. HAND POWER,

AS an evidence, if any were necessary, to
show the superiority of steam over hand pow
er, we will mention that we were on the
Steam Ferry boat, on Saturday, at the land
ing n the Western side, when fiat with a
buggy set out for the Scnbury shore. The
fiat was out about thirty yards, when the
steamboat put out OH her return trip to Mar
ket street wharf, where she landed seTpral
passengers and took on several others and
then returned to the Ian ding on the Snyder
county side, before the fat and buggy reached
the Sunbury shore. The distance from the
Market street landing to the Ferry landing
opposite IS about one mile. DR.. Hottenstein
claims the Ferry landing on the Snyder coun
ty side. Mr.. Clement, the proprietor of the
Steamboat contends that the landing or the
tow path belongs to the commonwealth, and
that he has q right, under the charter OF the
Steam Ferry Company, TO use it. lie has
no disposition TO deprive the Doctor Of any OF
bis just privileges, but thinks his rights are
no better than the man who imagined the
State had done him q great injury in con-
structing q canal on the route upon which be
drove q concstoga team, which was superse.
ded by the superior speed and cheapness OF
the canal boat, or the packet boat and stage
propretors, who in return must yield to the
Railroad car. He has no objection to let the
Doctor have an equal chan ce on equal terms
in running steamboat. Should he refuse
that proposition he certainly cannot complain
and the public most assuredly, will not.
