Correspondence of the Journal.

Mr. EDITOR Il see by the last number
of the Cleurfeld Republican, that the astute
editor of that rebel sheet, has seen proper
to assail the Assessor of Internal Revenue.
by charging him with violation of the law
and disregard of his oath, by publishing
the notice for holding the appeal In this
county, in the Journal
Now, the editor is either ignorant of the
law in regard to publishing that notice, or
he intended wilfully to misrepresent the
matter for the purpose of prejudicing por-
tion Of his readers against a competent, hon
est and faithful officer. The law does not,
as he asserts, require the notice to be pub
lished in the paper having the largest cir
culation; nor does his oath of office require
anything of the kind The law says: ''The
assessor shall give ten day notice to the
/ tax payers of the district, that he will hold
an appeal, or a certain day at a certain
place, ''by publishing the same in one news
paper if any there be in the district" and
by notifications to be posted up III at least
four public places in each assessment dis
trict.
Again, the editor of the Republican Jim
pliedly) boasts of his paper having the lar
gest circulation in the county, which may
be true as his party is LARGELY in the major
ity therein but l would ask him, which
party in the county pays the most taxes in
to the Treasury of the United States from
this source? BY reference to the published
Income returns as made to the Assistant
Assessor for the year 1864, he will find that
the Union party in this county returned
about one hundred and thirty-fve thousand
dollars 1875, ,O00l of income for that year,
while his party friends returned about sew
enty-eight thousand dollars (7S,OOO)-a lit
tie over half as much as the former. This
being the fact, which paper has the adyan-
tage of notifying the tax payers of the hold
ing of an appeal? especially, when it is re-
membered that the editor of the Republican,
acknowledges in the same issue that there
are 200 Of his party tout of 2,000) in the
county, who do not take has paper "a bad
admission for an editor who boasts of his
superior facilities of imparting information
to "a large majority of the people of this
county. But enough. MORE ANON.

votes over last election, while the

was only l72, The usual ratio of
votes to the populotion is one to every
seven aud a half, giving our county
the fabulous population Of 47,Al5

Santa Anna and the Paniann.

/
The Roberts Fenians held a picnic
on Staten Island, New York harbor,
on Monday, at which Santa Anna was
an invited guest. He was intrcduc-
cd to the crowd by President Rob
orts, and made speech in Spanish,
being unable to express himself in
English. In response to the cheers.
with which he was greeted, he said
II would be presumtuous on nv
part to accept this demonstration as
. matter personal to myself Mol I
accept this demonstration on behalf
of ny native land of Mexico-rtbree
cheers for Mexico and three for Ire
land --and let me confess it, il is no
surprise TO me. l may say almost
expected il, for the Irish are the peo-
pie most apt to sympathize with Mex
leo. Is not their religion that Of my
own country Do We not worship at
the same altar2 Are not the Mexi-
cans, like your own people, striving
to free their native land from for
eign yoke2 Why then, should the
world be astonished that the Fenians
should be willing to assist Mexico in
becoming once more free from for
eign Tyranny? 1t is not the Grst
time that your people have extended
to me their friendly help. When
Mexico was invaded by that noble
enemy, on whose hospitiable soil
am now living; when / had nrrayed
against me the powerful ormies of
the United States, under that immor-
tai hero, General Scott--[threo cheers
for Gen Scott, and thre for Sarta

we're two companies composed of men
from the Green isle, with the image
of their Patron Saint on their flag
Why wonder then, that they now
come forward TO my aid 2 l do not
desire TO become once more the rul-
er of Mexico There arc no honors
that a nation can bestow on its most
favored one, that have not been
showercd upon me by Mexico. Why
then suppose for moment that my
desire n to again rule over the dos-
tinies of my country For twelve
years have lived retired from pub
lie life on foreign soil, deploring the
Disturbances in my country, yet not
mingling in its domestic quarrels-
Yet | could not remain silent now at
the last fatal blow for my country's
independence, and that old sword
the old companion that helped me to
fight the Spaniard-was unshcathed
n1ain and offered to tho supreme chief
of my country but they thought it
rusted, they thought the old soldier
worn out, and they tried to brand
him with inftmy, calling me French
spy, And would | even like that
rest that becomes my years and ad
yanced age? These imputations and
ISLANDERS give new vigor to the old
soldier. My deeds will defend me.-
My voice is yet of some prestige
among my countrymen, and my arm
strong enough to lead an army. "To
gain or to perish is my motto. With
help or without it ! shall soon again
stand on Anahuc's soil, bearing aloft
that banner that | planted on the
walls of Vera Cruz when | drove the
French from my land in 80 and my
voice shall now, as then, be strong
enough to raise oven the dead, my
former companions, from theirgravcs.

again, or will drag me down to de.
plore with me the ruin of my coun-

4 Fuss Among the MOrmons.

10 Reports from Utah state that the
editor OF the Salt Lake Union VldeHe
has been made the victim of personal
outrage at the hands OF the Mormons,
and warned, with other lending Gen.
tiles, TO lcavo the place within six
hours, No attention was paid to the
warning, and the Yidette continues
its wareIaro against the Motmous.
The attack on the Tdette editor
does not surprise US, considering the
known character aud temperament of
the Mormon leaders. The paper was
established some time since in the
camp of the United States trooIs aent
TO keep order among the Mormons,
and from the f. st it waged an unre-
lenting war on Mormon principles
and Norman leaders. Its weapons
were keon aud its blows heavy and
delivered home. Threats of violence
were made, and nothing but the pro.
lection afforded by federal bayonets
saved the paper from destruction.
Emboldened by the impunity with
which its structures had hitherto
been made, the managers of the "
dete recently adopted the bold meas
ure of carrying the var into Africa
by publishing the paper in Salt Lake
city itself, and discarding the mill
tary protection ii has hitherto en-
joyed, without in the least me cderating
its tone. The Mormon paper, uatur-
ally enough, offered as the best con-
tradiction TO the stories Of Mormon
lawlessness, the fact that the VideUe
was allowed to publish its violent at
taoks without punishment, to which
the liiette replied that the Mormons
dared not do otherwise, The result
has been an outrage, perfectly un.
justihable, but not unexpected. aud
not without some show of provoca-
tion,-Clcp, Herald
