has just been brought under our
notice which may eventually be

man named Bright was travelling
overland from Adelaide to Majorca,
when. leaving the usual route to
iookalter some sheep, he came across
numerous springs of what at first
sight appeared to be water, but
on closer inspection proved TO be
u kind of liquid gum or oil, which
on exposure TO tho air becomes
solidifed, at first TO q consistency
of jelly, and afterwards that Of
India rubber-in which form we
have now piece in our possession
The popularity of this gum, or
whatever ii may be termed, is that
ii burns freely with a bright fame,
but accompanied with q thick
smo..o and a smell as Of old grease,
such as would be emitted from ma
chinory oil while in state of com.
bustion, Tho substance is light,
and floats easily in water. Oar il
formant assures US that tract OF
country not less than ten miles
square is covered at intervals with
tho bubbling springs; while be-
tween them the solidifod gum is
lying in such abundance, that ma.

Important to Hotel Keepers.

The Legislature has passed an act
requiring that in the future, when any
application is made to any court of quarter
sessions for license to sell intoxicating
drinks, it shall be lawful for the court to
hear petitions in addition to that of the
applicant in favor of granting the license
asked, and also remons.rances against the
application. The court may refuse a
license when, in their opinion, (having
due regard to the number and character
of the petitions for aud against the petit
tion, such license is not necessary for the
accommodation of the public. Upon suf-
hcient cause shown, the court may revoke
any license previously granted, though it
seems to be left entirely to the courts to
determine what constitutes sufficient cause
tor the revocation of license. Applica-
tions for license to keep an eating house,
beer house, or restaurant, authorizing the
sale of domestic wines, malt or brewed
liquors, are to be made in the same man
ner aud to the same authority (the courts)
as license to keep a hotel, though such
houses are not required to have bedroom
or bedding. The sum to be paid for an
eating house, beer house, OF restaurant
license is, in an incorporated city, fifty
dollars, and elsewhere twenty dollars
Such is the license law that comes from
Legislature many of whose members signed
the flaming call for the temperance con-
vention that met in Harrisburg during
last month. The State has now scarcely
less than six different and distinct laws
regulating the sale of alcoholic liquors,
the present Law not working a repeal Of
various local laws regulating tho sale of
liquors In certain counties.

Sunday Travel.

The act lately before the Legislature
70 permit the running of horse cars on
Sunday in Philadelphia, although sup
ported by all the Senators and seventeen
out Of eighteen Representatives from that
city, met with strenuous opposition from
members from the rural districts, and was
defeated. The inhabitants Of the Quaker
city count it an unjust discrimination
that Pittsburg should have the privilege
of running cars on Sunday, while they are
denied it, and certainly their arguments
are very plausible. In Philadelphia, as
in every other city of the State, people of
Afauence have the privilege Of travelling
In buggy, barouche, or carriage, to or
from church or elsewhere, on Sunday, as
on any other day, and despite the judicial
70 perceive why any such distinction
ahord be made between citizens, either
on the groHnd that the habits OF the
afluent cause their riding to come under
the description of "works of necessity .
or on any other pretext- Such distinc-
,icns smack too much of class privilege.
II the horse car may not run on Sunday,
,hsn neither should the carriage. Such,
we doubt not, is the view the people will
take Of il. aud the lsw will ultimately be
s0uiolmed t. il.

Governor GearY.

Governor Geary, in accordance with
his pledges, promptly vetoed the forty
million Pennsylvania Rail Road monopoly
bill, for which be will receive the thanks
of the people. The measure passed the
Senate, notwithstanding the veto, by a
tWo-thirds vote, but when it came to the
House, it gave place to another bill framed
for the purpose of avoiding the objections
of the Governor. By this second bill, the
Pennsylvania Rail Road company is au-
thorized to issue from time to time three
hundred thousand additional shares of
capital stock, at the option Of the stock
holders, their desire In the matter to be
expressed by resolution after duo notice
given. The company is also authorized
to issue bonds payable at such times as
the stockholders may appoint, the bonds
to bear no more than six per cent. interest,
with or without provision for tie payment
By the Company Of any or all taxes on
the principal or interest thereof, to be
secured by mortgage on the whole or any
portion of the company's estate. Even
under this bill, the Pennsylvania Rail
Road Company may become more power
full than Pennsylvania herself.

THE RETIRING SENAToRs-The pres-
ent State Senate is composed of 21 Repub-
licans and IL Democrats, giving the
Republicans a majority of 9. With the
close of the present session eleven Sena-
tors will retire by expiration of their
terms, as follows:

Of the retiring Senator'S, six are Dem
oc:ats and i've Republicans, and any

where q Republicaa should be chosen.

HOLD ENOUGH

A DISPATCH from Galveston informs
us of the departure of Marshal Bazaine
and the remainder of the French troops
from Vera Cruz on the 18th inst. Only
three iron-clads remained, and would sail
on the 10Th. Thus the intervention
which commenced in 1861, for the success
of which, during several years, the utmost
exertions were made, aud which the
Emperor publicly foretold would be one
OF the brightest pages in his history, has
come to an ignominious end. France
withdraws without having obtained any
thing she demanded The Empire which
French bayonets tried to establish is now
almost restricted to the cities of Mexico,
Puebls, and Vera Cruz, and to the army
near Queretaro. Vera Cruz is being in
vested by the Liberals, and was expected
to fall soon into theis hands.
