ARREST OF ALLEGED BoUNTY JUMPERs,-
By order Of Major Bierce, three men, giving
their names respectively as Smith, Moore and
Scott, were arrested on Sunday evening last
The arrests were made upon the affidavit OF
]. I. Norris, telegraph operator and ex
Government detective Norris represented
himself as a burglar, produced bunch Of
keys by way Of corroboration, and thus drew
from Smith the acknowledge that he, too,
and his companions, above named we're burg.
lars and Jumpers of bounty.
Smith was before Major Bierce yesterday
and had partial hearing. The case will
be concluded this afternoon Smith confess
ed to most of the charges made against him
by Norris, bat alleges that he was only draw
ing him out The question is one of Ueracity
between the parties, aud can only be decided
satisfactorily by outside evidence. They may
both be honest men--but we confess that we
don't specially admire their maner of doing
business Prima faeie, Norris has the inside
track
The preponderance Of evidence in his favor
consists in the fact, that he was first to report
TO the authorities II he has done this premG-
turely, and before be had made clear case,
he may have had motive in it. We await
the development of further facts

TAXES ON ALEs The New York Chamber
Of Commerce, ut recent session, unan;-
imously recommended the adoption of tax
on sales of merchandise. This, it is claimed
removes the most serious objection which has
been urged against the measure, by disposing
of the assumption that it would embar ass mer-
camille transactions. The Mercantile Jour
nal, New York, is also enthusiastic in its ideas
of the good results attainable by resort to
this mode OF taxation. The probable product
iveness of small tax on sales, says the jour
nal, exceeds alIthe ordinary calculations Of
statesmen and inanciers in relet ence to the
ordinary modes Of taxation. 1t is found that
tax of only one per cent. on all sales would
yield larger revenue than the whole amount
now derived from customs internal revenue.
and all other sources put together while the
cost of collecting it would only be about one
third of the average paid under the present
arrangement. The system, it is urged, is
based upon the sound principle Of taxing con-
sumers, instead Of produeers-saving to the
latter the interest Of advanced money, aud
making the collection at the time, and in the
manner most convenient to the persons taxed
The present temptations TO fraud are removed
by this system. ltwouid be necessary for a
merchant, ia order to defrahd the Govern
ment to the extent f$ioe, to falsify his books

Mrs. Swisshelm's new paper, The Recon-
strWctioniSt isprinted on the type formerly
used by the Washington Weekly Nelcs,
and the editor says of it
'Taking it in preference to a new Office,
all mixed and pied, and filed with sand
and cobwebs, as it was, has cost III some
delay, and madethe appearance Ofour paper
less attractive than new type would have
done; but our attention once turned to it,
we could not resist the desire to make this
old type talk of freedom once at least be-
fore it was consigned to the Furnaces and
purified by fire. Here, at the capital Of
this boosted free country, where it had ad-
vertised the cofle and the slave pen, where
it had reported spread-eagle Fourth Of
July speeches side by side with calls for
1ikely young negroes it must proclaim
the year of jubilee. These old cuts OF
runaway slaves, must not melt in the fer
vent heat of the Indignation of God and
man until they have advertised another
class Of runaways.
HThere is poetic Justice in making this
old type tell the world that God is faith
full and true, that He heard the prayers OF
His saints, wrung out by it in agony when
the loved, and oon to be lost, were there
by offered for the Southern market. The
cries of the oppressed did onter into h
ears of the Lord. of the Sabbath; and
the year of His redeemed is come. Thank
God, old typel thank God that the slave Is
free, and will o vote, here in Washing
ton, and in every state Of this Union,
without bowling to his former master and
saying, by your leave, sirP"
Bayord Taylor is writing a new novel
which has for the hero al American
tourist. The New York correspondent Of
a western paper gives this account OF the
plot:
1.-THE gentleman falls in love with an
italian beauty he accidentally meets at
Rome, in the ateLier of an artist for whom
she was sitting as a model. The romantic
lover is separated from his divinity again
and again, but at last, after a variety Of
adventures and romantic experiences is
welded to her, and the tale ends most fe-
licitously, as it usually does in the story
books designed for the edification of good
little children. There are some art criti-
cisns in the volume that are mentioned
favorably by those who have seen the
manuscript"

said that Madame de Marguerite, of Phila-

AT the Columbus Opera House one
night last week when the performers

who was standing at the right hand box,
approached a man sitting in the front
row of seats, in the parquette, and expos
tulated with him for kissing. This led TO
a low-toned alteration, when the police
man undertook to take the man out, in

his failure threw the whole house into
commotion. At this point, Mr.. johnson,
who was playing Claude Melnotte, left

then returned to the stage and resumed

Matilda Heron, whose vertebra has been

with the Louisyillians. The journal

"The gist of our information is that
Miss Heron was engaged to play one week
at the Louisville Theatre, commencing
December 4th. She did not arrive at that
time owing to mishaps on the rout. On
Tuesday evening, finding her audience
very small, she refused to finish her en-
gagement. She made no complaint against
the management of the company, but she
declined to play against the Keans, and
other attractions in the city, fearful that,
by so doing, her reputation would be sac
rifced. This seems like queer logic for
a star ofsuch magnitude as Matilda Heron,
1t was urged upon her that Miss Hudson
would be greatly the loser by breaking the
engagement, but she persistently rejected
ali overtures. Miss Heron was indiscreet
enough to say that by playing here she
would only be casting pearls before swine,
which should be remembered by the peo-

The Fcnians and Canada;

Let the Canucks tremblel The respite
from iRvasion-the rest from trouble and
turmoil and red-handed war-which they
fondly fancied would be eternal, seems
about to pass away. The Irish Republic,
now divided into two factions, led by two
Presidents, recognizing two capitals (both
in New York city and engaged in a blood
less but bitter internal warfare of procla-
nations and addresses, is soon, it seems, to
be h~armonized and the object which is to
terminate the Kilkerney-cat-fght between
Roberts and 0'Mahoney is nothing else
than the conquest of Canada Instead of
tIreland for the Irish" we shall now hear
the r~allying-ery "CaRada for the Irish"
The Saxon tyrant may still tremble in his
seat of power, but it is of his American
possessions aid not of his usurped control
over the "Gem of the Sea that he is to
be despoiled. So at least the veracious tel
egraph assures us. "The Fenian Senate
have determined on Canadian war" and
measures Of compromise between the
Cabinet and Senate are now under debate"
Roberts and OMahony will cease calling
each other hard names, and proving each
other outrageous villains, and,mounted on
prancing chargers. gaily bedight with bran
new shoulder-straps and gittering sabres,
will lead the ~panopled hosts Of Fenia
against the weak and frightened forces OF
the cowardly Canuckl
All very well. gentlemenI 1t may
suit your convenience capitally not to kill
the goose which lays for you such golden
eqrs: and this delusion of a Canadian
wal may call forth still brisker and heav-
Ter contributions from the scanty savings
ofIrish servant-maids. But should ys~-
manifold vaporings and blusterings Gull
inmate in any action, you will soon dis
cover that you have usurped your prerog-
alive. Your Irish republic is not in Ire
Iand-al the worse for US! 1t is in New
York city, where it is safe enough from
harm. but where it is also powerless to do
harm. And it may discover, sooner or
later, tbas the war-making power, in this
eopatry delegated neither to the true
ulent OMahony nor to the sanguine and
s~anguinary Roberts.
The government of the United States
cannot and will not permit SO gross a VIC
lation of the law of nations as this mad
scheme involves. 1t has protested all too
bitterly and all too justly against the sus-
pected connivance of Canadian authori-
ties in rebel raids, ever to wink at the in
auguratiOn On our own soil of a far more
terrible and destructive raid against Can
ada. We cannot allow a parcel of hot
headed Irisbmen TO plunge US into an IN
just war for a quarrel which is none of
ours. We must crush this reasonable
and insane conspiracy in its inception.
