l-ss A bloody and very dangerous tragedy
took place in Rupert on the Sd inst. 1t
seems party of young men assembled for
the purpose of horaiDg as it is called a new
ly married couple. After having kept up the
noise and confusion" with guns, drums,
kettles and horns, until late hour in the
night. and the patience and forbearance of the
horned party were completely exhausted, and
after notifying the young men that serious
consequences might result if they did not dis
perse and go home; and after being satisfied
that they had no intention of desisting, one
the inmates Of the house fired gun upon tho
crowd, charged with hard paper wad. The
shot took effect in the temple of a young man
by the name of Hodges. producing a Sc
we're and lacerated wound of the scalp, and
a slight fracture and depression of the skull.
His situation was considered very dangerous
for some days, but he is now said to be re-

An IMpOTENT THREAT.

The other day, in the House, the Chairman
of the Committee of Ways and Means pro-
that if the present Congress adjourn
without supplying the Treasury by loans, or
by an increase of the tariff revenue, an extra
session of the next Congress will be immed
ately called by the President. more inn
potent threat it is impossible to conceive, as
it is only from the Democratic ascendency in
m the present Congress that the corruption
lists have any hope Of obtaining the means
wherewith to keep up the existing moustrous
scale of public expenditures.
The public revenue has fallen 20 say fifty
five millions per annum, but the annual ex-
lions when Mr. Buchanan came into power,
has been increased to eighty millions, instead
Of being reduced as it ought to have BEEN
and might easily have been, to the standard
of the receipts. This has arisen. in part, from
absurd anticipation of an immediate revival
of trade INDUCED in at the Treasury Depart
ment, and in part nom the political necessi-
ties of the Democratic party
What the country demands is retrench-
ment and reform, and we shall never get either
until they are forced by necessity The Gov
eminent will spend all the money it gets be
it ever so much but for all the actual wants
of the public service an annual revenue of fifty
five millions is most abundent.
Without going into the civil service at all,
twenty-five millions per annum could be saved
in our navy and army establishment
A modification of tariff, with a view to
protection, is one thing A modification,
with view to increased revenue, is altogeth-
or a different thing. and is only desired by
the partsans and beuedciaries Of an extrav-
agant and corrupt dyuast w. Washington Re-
public.
