The EUening Telegraph Of yesterday bas
the following special despatch
HARRISBURG, Dec departmental cir
cles were stirred not little this morning on
reading the news contained in a Philadel-
phia paper of yesterday, in regard TO the
celebrated Credit Mobiher case, as contained
in the following article
The citizens can hardly appreciate the i'm
portance of the verdict which has just been
rendered against the Credit Mobilier Of
America, and By which the State Treasury
has been enriched 81, ,407 600. This was the
tax due by the corporation for the year
1868. This does not end the matter The
Treasurer and Auditor General will now
proceed TO the collection Of the tax on met
earnings, and also file claims for the taxes
aecrning in 1869. and both officers feel as
sured of being able to add at least $500 600
more to the treasury. In this matter Messrs.
Hartranft aad Mackey were assisted by Mr.
j. NJ Foster, the able assistant OF the form
er. This is the case in which Attorney
General b. H. Brewster took so active a
part, and after months of labor succeeded In
putting it in such position as to render a
verdict for the State certainty.
Now, the fact is well known here that the
late law officer Of the Commonwealth lad
nothing to do with recovering this money for
the State The case was worked up by j.
II. Foster, Esq, of the Auditor Generals s
Department, and Lewis w. Hail. Esq, Of
this city, who was especially retained by the
Auditor General for the purpose. 1t will be
noticed that this was an appeal case, which
did not require the Attorney General to even
issue a writ against the defendants A set
element was made by the Auditor General
against the company, which settlement, If
not appealed from, would have become an
absolute debt to the Commonwealth The
company, on appealing, as required by law,
fled with the Auditor General the speeiiea-
tons upon which the appeal is based, and
gave bond with security to abide the result
These specifications were then filed by the
Auditor General in the Dauphin County
Court of Common Pleas, which put all par
ties in court, ipSo tacto, without any action
by the Attorney General who afterwards
tried the case. Here the only steps taken
during Mr. B. II. Brewster time were
those in which the Attorney General had no
part, and the trial was conducted by Mr.
Hall, assisting the present Attorney Gener-
al, Hon. H. Carroll Brewster

Treasurer Spinner's report says between
the eleventh Of May and twenty-fftb Of
November, there were paid for United
States six per cent bonds on account of the
sinking fund and for the fund held subject
to the order of Congress, interest and pre-
MUM paid thereon included, $50, 2S2, 27O.
These payments excel half million dollars
per annum. There has already been re-
ceived for interest on these bonds $704, 304
in gold, which has been invested in United
States bonds, representing $7SS, 500, which
are held for the two funds above named.
If the same rate of purchase is hereafter
maintained and the accruing interest in
vested semi-aunually in like bonds, the whole
National debt will thus be paid off in less
than thirteen wears.

The Cuban War.
Through spa2ish Sources.


HAVANA, Dec. "A military govern
ment will soon be inaugurated for the Cinoo
Villas district. Great results are expected
from this measure which, it is supposed,
will lead to the complete re-establishment
OF Spanish authority IN that quarter.
Adyices from Puerto Principe to the oath
ultimo have been received. Information
was brought by a negro that the insurgents
were approaching San Joes, garrisoned by
Catalan volunteers. Twenty volunteers,
with officers, sent cut to reconnoitre, were
cut off and captured. Next morning the in
surgents attacked San Jose, and after fight
ing for an hour, raised a white flag.
The garrison responded and sent out an
officer and four men, who approached the
rebel lines and proposed eapi,ulation The
soldiers, without orders, fred a yolley aud
killed two of the Spaniards Fighting was
then renewed. The Cubans fought desper-
ately and endeavored to scale the entrench-
mcnts, but tTeinforcements coming to the
garrison, they finally withdrew Eleven
Catalans were killed.
The affair caused much excitement at
Puerto Principe. The colonel commanding
the Catalans had been sent 10 Havana to be
court martialed.
A dividend Of four per cent. has been de-
clared by the Havana railroad company
since the road has been under the manage
ment Of General Clayiio.
HAVANA Dec, IA letter, dated San
tiago de Cuba, Nov %, says A well au-
thenticated report has reached this city that
the steamer Teaser has landed a party of
fihbusters in the Bay of Nipe, with large
quantity of military stores, and that they
have reached the interior in safety.
On the Goth the Spaniards attacked the
insurgents intrenched at Mogate. The
troops commenced by shelling the rebel po-
sition, and then charged with bayonets, but
were repulsed with great loss Many of
their wounded are coming here. The gov
ernment is seizing animals on the streets
for the use of the army

RAILROAD COMBINATIONS. The Balti-
more and Ohio railroad company appears to
have been oYer-reached again, says the
Washington Star, by the Pennsylvania
railroad, which on Wednesday secured
possession of the Cincinnati and GAINESVILLE
railway. This, line, which is in many re-
spects a most important and valuable one,
has from its opening been large contribu-
tor to the traffic Of the Baltimore and Ohio
route, and its ultimate and permanent con-
troll has long been looked upon as a highly
desirable acquisition BY the friends of both
the great rival corporations In buying it
the Pennsylvania Central secures not only a
line which can be made profitable from It's
local business alone, but ky constructing a
few miles Of new road, connecting Zanes-
vile with Dresden, Ohio, ID will be able 10
tap Cincinnati and all the rich country be-
yond that city by much shorter route than
1t has yet been able to secure Indeed, it
may be said that this-last move gives TO the
Pennsylvania Central control Of the most Of
the main arteries of trade in and through
the great State of Ohio.

ment of the public debt, to-day at the end
Of nine months Of Republican rule restored,
no less than S7l, ,9I3, ,524 7s have been paid
off OF nearly eight millions per month. The

THE CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE, charg-
ed with the investigation of the causes Of
the decline of American shipping, completed
their labors in Philadelphia Thursday. Be
fore commencing their investigation there,
they had been engaged for some time 10 tax
ing testimony in Portland, Boston and New
York. The testimony taken covers about
800 manuscript pages, and is now being
printed in Washington The remedies
urged for the great decay in American ship
ping interests have, in nearly every instance,
resolved themselves into three propositions:
!. a drawback of the duty upon all mate
rlals entering into the construction of
vessels and subsidy equal to the amount of
the duty when American materials are used.
, Permission to purchase and admit the
American registers foreign built vessels.
3. Subsidies to American lines of ocean
steamers.
The committee have proceeded 10 Wash
ington, and in due time they win submit
their report and the above propositions for

with Caldwell Mulligan and Others, with de-
frauding the government by means of false

in 1000 bail to appear for an examination

THE tariff question is severely exercising
the patience Of the free traders at present.
Judge Kelley amended bill is not quite sat
isfactory to them. The Harrisburg Patriot
Of the Ist inst, says
when tariff reforms are to come from
such political economists as he, the friends
Of free trade may well despair
We are heartily glad to hear cry Of des-
pair from men who labor for the destruc-
ton of the best interestsof the state We
would be better pleased to hear the editors
of the Patriot say they were ashamed of
their ingratitude toward their native state
How sons Of Pennsylvania can be such in
CRATES as to advocate free-trade, which all
experience has shown to be most iminical
to our prosperity, passes our comprehension.
We sympathize with them in their distress
but cannot wish them any relief. We rath-
er like Judge Kelly's views on most matters
and believe that every true Pennsylvania
viii be pleased with, at least, the main fea-
lures of his bill The Cops have at last
been forced to acknowledge that a revenue
tariff is good, if not necessity; now if a
little is good, why should not little more
be better? Ifabsolute free trade is bad for
US is not free-trade in any shape bad Per-
haps the Patriot viii publish Prof Perry S
argument 10 favor of little tariff, since he
had to back down from free-trade in his
recent lecturing tour, even though he got
his pay for preaching free trade from the
agents Of the British manufactures.

Of Nc. Mcfarland in the Tribune Office on
the 25th nit. He was bat SO years old. Mr.
Richardson was one Of the rising literary
men Of the country. His writings we're
mostly confined to newspapers and maga-

AcCoRD1NG to moderate estimate, the
amount of money paid for intoxicating drinks
in Trenton, N. j., in one year, is twenty
five times as much as the whole sum paid
for the support of the public schools. Add
70 this three-fourths of the sum expended
to maintain the police, and to pay for pau
perism and crime-for at least that propor-
ton of these items is legitimately chargea-
bic to the account Of liquor drinking.

Mexico has adopted new plan Of pay
ing off national debts. The debt is large,
the interest heavy, and her credit bad, so
instead of paying off interest, she quietly
goes into the market, where her bonds are
offered very low because of her bad credit,
and buys the bonds at heavy discount.
We have heard Of bankrupt individuals
practising this sharp trick but it is the FIRST
time we have heard Of a nation outhanking
It's creditors in chat style.
