The Tariff Plunderers at Work.

The tariff plunderers OF the labor of the
country for the benefit Of n few are again
at work. A Washington correspondent
thus hints at one of their schemessd d st'dI

DAYTON. Ohio,
ElOpement, Seduction and At
tempted Suicide. l,.......

The parties to the following romantic
affair were returned soldier and young
miss not yet out of her teens, botll of whom
reside In New York State. They had been
acquainted, according TO the lady's state
ment, only about two weeks, and the girls
friends objected to SO hasty q marriage.
She foolislily listened to the solicitations of
her lover, and agreed TO elopcwith him TO
Jersey city, trusting to his honor to make
her his wife ON arriving Mt their destina-
tion. When they reached Jersey City 1t
WAS dearly midnight, and too late 10 find u
minister or Justice, and the couple repaired
to q hotel. where the girl, relying upon her
lovers promises, allowed him 70 register
their names as man and wife, But when
morning came the ''boy in blaes endeav-
ored to evade the performance his prom
Use, and at length coOlly informed the de-
ceived girl that he could not marry her, as
he already had wife in another city.
Upon hearing that, she rushed dawn stairs
with the intention of destroying herself.
As she passed out of the building a gentler
man connected with the hotel suspected
something wrong, and following her, over
took her on the dock, which Is close to the
hotel, and just in time to prevent her from
throwing herselfinto the water. Returning
with her she related TO him her story, and
finding that she had been cruelty deceived,
repaired to the room occupied by the par
ties, where he found the young man and
demanded of him what had become of the
lady who came to the hotel with him. This
was question he could not answer, but he
replied that he presumed that she had gone
down 20 the breakfast table, Upon learning
| that she had attempted suicide he was great
| ly frightened, and in reply to the question
| whether he was married, confessed that he
was not but had made the assertion only
| to evade the fulfillmedt of his promise o.
marriage. He was then offered the choice
Of matrimony or the State prison. and II
| his alarm at the position in which he fount
himself readily chose the former. The ser
vices of a minister were obtained, when tn,
twain were made one flesh.

Brief Reasons Why Bonds Should
be TaXed.

... be Taxed.
There are many reasons why Govern
Inent Bonds should be taxed, rs other prop
erty; but among the most pungent and
pointed that we have yet seen in print are
the following, from the OSHKOSH Democrat,
OF late date. Ii says: N| H n
THE WAY IT SHoUI.D RE.
If daylight is taxed TO the poor, the bonds
ought to be to the rich.
If the poor mans coffee, tea and sugar is
taxed, bonds ought to be taxed, or draw no
interest. t.|.rr sf.... .. ...,
If the poor mans shirt is taxed, the rich
mans bonds ought to be.
Ifjails and penaitentiaries and courts are
keptup by taxation TO protect bond holders
from robbers, is it not right that bond
holders help foot the bill
If the roads and bridges are kept up by
taxes, and bond holders travel over them,
they ought TO be taxed as other men.
Ii scholars are kept up by taxation, and
the bond-holder's children get the benefit
of them their fathers ought to be taxed
like other men and not grumble. i1
Every man who puts his money In GOV-
ernment bonds, claims big interest, and he
ought to help pay the big tax.
Every man owning bonds and opposed
to taxing them, Is rcpudiator of the pub
lie debt, for he thereby asks that his wealth
be exempt from being taxed 70 pay the
debt.

ADVERTISING RATES.
Gold.

Soon after the late war broke out, the
shipments of gold from California to the
Atlantic sea-ports, dropped from about
thirty-flve millions annually to about
twelve millions. All the rest was sent to
foreign countries or brought East by other
conveyance SO as to escape capture by the
English Rebel privateers. The tide has
again turned, for we again see, by recent
table of shipments, that $2056l,S ,S95 have
been sent, by the California steamers, to
New York within the present year. The
whole amount sent forward from San Fran
cisco to the Eastern States, from January |,
1854, 10 December 20. 1865, is 1877, ,0S0 719.
OF course this is not the whole product for
the time specified. Much of the gold Is
sent to foreign countries 20 pay for mer-
chandise and 20 settle exchanges, and q
vast deal moru is seOtiE East by other modes
than regular shipments w the steamers.
In q receit work, published by Mr.. Roman,
at San Francisco the whole gold product of
the Pacific country since 1919 is set down
at S750000g000. u fHd 'fr. .f.iI tlh.fa f
