GOODBYE PHILLPs.-The Boston
Commonwealth. which but recently
loved" Wendell Phillips, now bids
him good bye in the following terse
lords:
Mr.. Phillips is now in coventry.
His influence is gone. No gentleman
d res to be in intimate relationship
W, b him. Few will take his unsup-
r tied statement on any matter
" Ethy Of advocacy. His fall
from an eloquent leader of public
sentiment to a common and indefensi-
bic ibeller of public men has been
sudden and sad. The community
turns With averted face from him."

retaFY or the treasury.


TREASURY DEPT, yYAsHINGToE, D. C.,}
November l9, 1870
SRI have received your letter
of the 18th inst, inclosing a cOmmU-
pication from the President Of the
Louisville & Nashville Railroad
Company, desiring to be Informed as
to the probable expense for services
of inspectors to accompany cars bond
ed for the transportation of merohan-
disc under regulations Of October LIST,
1870: and also whether ordinary
freight cara viii be acceptable to the
DepaTt menk.
In reply, ! have to inform you that
the act of July IA, 1870, leaves the
employment Of inspectors to be sta
toned upon railway cars, vessels or
other vehicles, discretionary with the
Secretary of the Treasury, the ex-
pense of which shall be paid by the
common carriers bonded under the
regulations. This expense cannot be
determined until after routes shall
have been bonded and the system
placed In proper working order. IL
is not designed, however, TO place
more officers upon the cars or along
the routes than shall be deemed
necessary to properly secure the safe
Transportation of the class Of mer-
chandise thus provided for.
Ordinary wooden freight-cars,
known as box-cars, in which mer-
chandise can be properly secured with
customs locks, will answer the pur-
pose. See article 6, Regulations OF
October 1, 1870.
/ am, respectfully,
Gro. S. BOUTWELL,, Sec'y.
Surveyor of Customs, Louisville,
Kentucky.
The above letter will, no doubt, con-
tain matter of interest to our import
ers. We must confess that Secretary
Boutwell, does not display any great
amount of zeal in putting the new law
into operation. We hope the Sena.
tors and members of Congress from
the West will see to it this winter
that the Secretary promptly puts the
Law in operation, and if it is defect
i've, that Congress will, with equal
promptness, remove the defects.
BASE BALL.-The officers of the
Indianapolis Base Ball Club are
taking advantage of the stupid action
of the Cincinnati Club, and have Sc
cured some of the best players in the
old Red Stocking Nine. The Senti-
mel of Saturday contains the follow
ing item in reference thereto:
Colonel Fred. Thompson takes his
departure for New York City to NOR
row evening, whittier he goes in the
interest of the indianapolis Base
Ball Club. The formation of the
nine has already begun. Sweasy, late
second baseman, and Leonard, the
left fielder of the Reds" and Arthur
Allison, late of the Forest City Club,
of Cleveland, and Joseph Doyle, late
of the Forest City Club, of Rockford,
have been engaged. They are all
players of skill and ability, and
should the club be as fortunate in Sc
Letting the five other members of the
nine, cur city will be able to boast
one of the best, if not The best club in
the States next season. So mote
it be.
Colonel Thompson is now after a
catcher and pitcher.

The San Mateo Tanning Bill.

At the last session, BY systematic misrep-
rssenta ion, an act was passed to give to
the San Matso Tanning and Manufacturing
Company the privilege Of purchasing, at an
appt aiseineut, a tract Of tide land near the
county line OF San Francisco county said tract
to contain from seventy five to one hundred
acres. Upon representation made as to
the quantity of land. members voted for
the bill. A more 1agrant instance Of wrong,
prac,iced upon legislative body. vas never
heard OF 10 any civilized community. 1t
turned out. in fact, tha. the trac. contained
from 4 500 to 5000 acres. The exac. amount
it is difficult to learn. as the plat Of survey
is not on file 10 the Surveyor Generals office.
The tract was appraised a. 81 900 an acre,
and the company" invited TO pay up. bu,
failed TO respond to the invitation, aud Of
course their privilege OF purchase ceased.
bill to repeal this measure was intro
duced early 10 The session BY Senator Gwin,
Of Calavsras. aud passed the Senate With
out opposition. II was referred 10 The House
to The Swamp and Ovsrfowsd Land Com
mit.ee, where it has been tied up since about
the LIST of February, to the deep regret of
meo who are solicitous for the credit Of the
Legislature. There are rumors s1oat. as we
are informed, that a portion Of this Com
mittse favor the postponenent Of the repeal
bill. on the ground Of "ves'ed rights" but
We are left 10 the dark as to the character
Of the "vsstsd rights" which bavs grown up
since 1868.
The bill ought to have passed both houses
under a suspension Of the rules, in forty
eight hours, for the credit Of the State and
the good name Of the Democracy and we
trust the House will relieve itself of the
odum Of ,olsrating this bad measure upon
the statute book without days longer de-
lay. The gsntlemsn on the Committee on
Swamp aud Overflowsd Lands are good and
true, and we hope they will recommend the
immediate repeal Of the so-caled Tanning
and Manufacturing Bill.-Reportr.

TESTING A MORMON GIRL.-The San Bsr.
nardino Guardian tells the following story:
Ooe Of our worthy citizens baviog mar
risd a young, blooming. buxom girl for bis
second bsIpmats; she being withal strongly
imbusd 10 the faith Of tho Latter Day Saints
must uesIs bs very jealous 10 attempting
the conversion Of her husband to her way oi
thinking, allowing no opportunity to pass
without sxpostulstiog on the danger iu re-
naming outside the fold, until the good
man became wearied with the pious rasping
An idea came to bis relief, BY which be ex-
pectsd to silence the battery. He at once
put it into practice by announcing to his
over jealous wife that he was struck with
conviction and was going to become a Nor.
mon. The wife was much rejoiced at the
promising fruit of her planolug. "WeIl,
says the husband, II am determined to be q
thorough Saint, and will require at least six
more wives. THIS opened the eyes Of the
proselytiug wife, who could not see the ne
cessily Of more wives. She finally came 10
the conclusion that, with the Lords help,
they might continue on the earthly pill
grimage together. and possibly reach the
desired haven Of rest without having wives
cliugiog to his coattal. Her faith fell short
in fulfilling the text, "Sevsn women shall
clsave TO she skirts OF one man."
