THE IRISH CHURcn BILL--A London
dispatch of the 23d says the compromise
on tic Irish Church Bill was tho result
OF fear on the part of tho Peers of the
consequences threatened by collision OF
the two houses of Parliament. The
Tory Lords held large meeting, and
resolved to repudiate the Marquis of
Salisbury, and put themselves under the
lead of Lord Cairns. The latter wus
authorized to make peace with the Min
istry, and express the willingness of the
Peers TO yield, Lord Cairns sought an
interview with Lord Granville, and gave
in tho submission Of the Peers, where
upon the Cabinet agreed to tho compro-
mise announced, The prompt and loud
expressions oi public Indignation terri
fed the Lords, and thus has been post
poned for q while the threatened agita-
tion. The compromise OF the Lords
consists in taking back all they said and
did in opposition to The Commons and
the people, and agreeing to do every
thing the Lower House wants them to.
II was such "compromise" as a man
makes when . robber hpllsa pistol 70

Lords yielded because they couldn't help

ADVENTURES OF A MILL SPoNE.--A
fearful accident occurred at Louisville on
the Goth. A man was hauling two i'm
mense mill stones, one which weighed
1850 pounds. While passing along the
side of a high hill, the heaviest stone
rolled from the wagon and sped down
the declivity with fearful velocity, crush
ing small trees and shrubbery in it's
course. The house of farmer named
Darnell, was situated at the foot of the
hill. The milestone went crushing through
the fence and into the yard Of the far
mer's house, where were n number of bee
hives. In the yard were playing n bevy
of children. Tho bee hives were upset.
and the bees in their confusion lighted
upon the children, stinging every one of
them in friglitttl manner. The pro
gress of the great stone was not impeded
In the least by it's collision with thehives,
and went bounding into stock pasture
beyond the house. 1t dashed through
the herd Of calves and horses killing Nv o
OF the former and one of the latter al
most instantly. The children in the yard
had been completely covered with the
bees, and each one was stung by them
until their persons were covered with
laShite swellings. % One of them died 4
short time after the terrible occurrence,
and two others are entirely speeehless
aud blind. They can hardly recover.

No CoctIk TnAFFIc.--If tie Southern
gentlemen who have lately moved with
so much energy, TO organize measures

labor upon the plantations, have in their
minds eye, as most likely they have, an
old-fashioned Coolie trade, in which the
hapless Cinnamon are TO be practically
bought, sold, kidnapped, worked and
generally dealt with ms so many slaves,
under the nominal cover Of a system of
contracts, serious stumbling block in
their way has been discovered, consist
ing of an act of Congress which was
passed ip 1862. The existence of such a
law on our statute books is, exceedingly
fortunate. It settles in advance what
might have speedily become very ugly

JUDGE CHAsE---Is freely charged with
using his judicial position, and shaping
his judicial actions so as to aid him in
his ambitious desires to reach the Presi-
dency. That official can hardly be just,
Trustworthy or reliable, who let's selfish
aims and ambitious views shape and
tinge his official action, regardless of
right and justice in the premises. Yerger,
of Mississippi was arraigned before n
military court on a change OF murder.--
The friends of the accused, knowing the
suppleness and susceptibility of the Chief
Justice when approached by subtle in
fluences encouraging to Presidential as
prations, pctitioned him to grant wilt
of hdbeas corpus, in order to take Yerger
out of the hands of the military court,
and thus secure his release. The Chief
Justice graciously entertained the pro-
position, but adloitly postponed the de-
cision Of the case, thus giving great sat
isfaotion 10 the friends of Yerger, who
now reckon on his entire escape, IA
/ Washington, special of Julyel9th says
The, friends of, Chief. Justice Chase are
busy circulating ii n report that the post
poLement of the decision on the applica'
tfonof Yerger for a writ of habeas cor,
pus was effected AZ tho instance et:the
President and his Cabinet. The tale
bears its own contradiction, for it il evi-
dept that the, Cabinet consultations have
nothing whatever 10 do with the delib.
erations of the judicial officers of the
land. 1t is asserted that Yerger's friends
did not file their application until they
had previously obtained virtual promise
from Judge Chase for its favorable con
sideration. Chase's radical friends (very
few of that kind remain) advised him
that the promised decision, If rendered
at this time, would injure his political
status in the North, hence the postpone
ment and, pending further develop
ments, the judicial candidate for the next
Presidency .fattcrs himself that while he
has gained favor with his southern
friends, he has not 1st ground with the
few northern radicals who believe in him
and who do not believe in the uncopsttu
tionality of the military power now try
ing ,Yerger or his life. When the case
comes up before the full bench of tho
Supreme Court, he will be able to fulfil
his promise to release Yerger without as
suming the sole responsibility of the act

tion of the government has been called 10 an
evident blunder in the system of collecting in
come tax from government employees, both in
the civil and military service, by which the
latter have undoubtedly paid into the Treasury
at least twenty millions of dollars, since the
passage of the incomo-taX act, more than they
arc required TO do by the revenue laws. 1t is
explained that the blunder is occasioncd by
dcducting the income tax from army and navy
officers and civil employees ut the TIME of the
payment of their monthly salaries, without
giving them the opportunities which other in
come taxpayers have of making deductions
for house rent, losses in business, &c. 1t is
further claimed that the system Is wrong be-
cause, MS has frequently happened this year,
government employees discharged before COM
pleiing years work, md before receiving the
thousand dollals exempted by law, are unable
TO obtain employment for the remainder of the
year. They have, nevertheless, paid q pro rata
monthly, when in fact they are not, under the
law, required TO pay any lax whatever. Itis
also claimed that monthly collections of taxes
are not authorized by the law, which provides
Tor regular assessments by duly appointed as
SCISSORS.
The above, from the Washington correspond
cnt of tho Cleveland Herdld, brings attention
to glaring wrong Besides the fact glanced
at, that the deduction from the Government
employee without reference to his losses, rents,
taxes interest, &c, he is not allowed the cx-
enlption of the 81 900 that Others enjoy. His
whole bills against the Government may not
| amount TO $50 month-$800 n year-and yet
he pays out of that $50 the five per cent on
the excess, above the rate per day of 81 900 a
year, although his 5000 may be his entire earn.
ings for the year. This is grossly UNJUST and
now that attention has been called To 1t, 1t il
TO be hoped reform will he brought about
