Some arrivals are taking place at the
Addison House from abroad of those
who take up their residence here for the
summer. Well, can only say, "mine
host" d. Rider knows how to play the
commissary well in furnishing the need
full for his boarders, and his past reputa-
ton in that respect is sufficient guaran-
tee for the future. We trust he may
have the house full the coming season.
Again has the stately tread of death
been heard in our midst. Another of our
aged matrons has passed away to "tbe

son of Mrs. Deborah Huntington. She
died at the residence of Mr.. Is aac Lovett,
about three miles east of our village, on
Sunday, the 10th inst. Mrs. III. has, for
about half century, been a member of
the M. Z. church in our village. She
has lived faithful, devoted, Christian
life, and has seen the society grow from
about % members to more than $50.
Her son, W. W. Huntington, Esq, is
Postmaster of Galena, Illinois, and is a
warm, personal, as well as a political
friend of Gen. Grant. She leaves six SONS
and one daughter TO mourn her decease
Her age is about rs years. 1 have often
heard her, in religious meetings, express
her strong attachment to the Saviour
and abiding love for the church OF hel
choice. She has fallen like shock o.
corn fully ripe, and ready for The
garner, and has entered unto rest the
rest of the believer in Christ. ''Let me
die the Seath of the righteous; let my
last end be like LiB."

the surface became so solidlv frozen that
it could not be broken by a heavy iron
weight attached to rope. The ice con-
tlnued as late as July, but disappeared
during the latter part of summer.
This well is situated in the gravel bank
of the Susquehanna River, about three
fourths of a mile from the water, at a
point where the ground is elevated about
thirty feet above it. When a lighted can
die was let down into the well it seemed
to encounter current of air at a depth
of about thirty feet, as the flame flick
cred and seemed carried in one direction
In the Literary Journal published at
Concord, N. H., in 1923, Mr.. Caleb
Emery, of Lyman, Grafton County, pub
lished an account of his examination of a
well in the town in which he resided in
1916, the year of the remarkably cold
summer. In June of that year this well
was frozen solid at depth of eight feet
below the surface of the ground, SO that
water could be obtained only by cutting a
hole through the ice.
The following month he again visited
the well, and found that although the
quantity of ice had greatly diminished.
yet that mass as large as wash-tub
was floating in the water.
NJ. Erman, the celebrated Siberian
traveller, describes a well dug or blasted
through the frozen earth at Kakootsk tC
the depth of AZ feet He computed that
the frozen earth reached depth of 63C
feet
Another explorer, M. Middendorf, bored
to depth of 70 feet, going through
frozen soil and ice until he reached pure
transparent ice, in which he excavated
more than six feet without ascertaining its
thickness. He also observed that shaft
which had been sunk through clay, sand
and Ignite mixed with ice, did not reach
through the frozen crust, though carried
to tn, depth of 384 feet. The tempera
ture n this case increased from | deg. al
the surface to 26 deg. min. at the bot
tom.
M HENDERSON, another observer, com
putesthe frozen crust to be between 3OC
and 90 feec thick. In pit he examined
he fund temperature of more than q
deg. at depth OF IS feet, and that thi:
had increased 10 deg. at a depth of BIS
feet.
81 R. J. Murchison, the author of the
Geology of Russia, and favorably
known for his extensive geological re
searches, speaks of shaft sunk at va
kootk, which passed through sixty feet
of aluvium, and the remaining depth o.
800 feet through limestone, slate an(

The Senate proposition to continue
the collection of income taxes throughout
the present year will have a hard time
in the House, and some of its advocates
are endeavoing to "hedge" by submitting
less Objectionable propositions. One of
these is to stop the imposition of the tax
after the LIST of next July, and another is
to rednce it to three per cent, with an
exemption of all incomes under $4,000 a
year If no legislation can be perfected
the Treasury will have to refund what
taxes it has collected during the present
year without authority of law: but there
is no reason why that authority should
now be given. The legitimate object of
legislation is certainly not to legalize il
legal acts by over.zealous officials.
Mr.. Dawes's resolution of inquiry in
regard to the payment of $500 to Col.
Forney, publisher of the Chronicle, dis
closed the curious fact that the committee
on accounts can pay money out of the
contingent fund, as it chooses, without an
order from the House. If the committee
choose to give ten thousand dollars to es-
tablish a partisan newspaper, there is
nothing to hinder them, provided there is
money enough left in the fund. The re-
suit of calling tho attention of the House
to the subject will be thai law win he

. CONGRESSIONAL APPORTIONMENT -
The Congressional apportionment under
the next census is a matter of good deal
of interest, particularly to the eastern
States. If the number of members of the
House of Representatives remains at
present the New England States will each
lose several representatives, while the
new States at tho West will gain. The
scheme to increase the total number of
representatives, to 300, finds favor from
the fact that it would leave the old states
with about the same number as now,
while the western states would also real
ize the full advantage of their gain in
population since the last censns Z; and as
having a bearing ON this question, the
Washington Globe publishes some statis-
tics showing that, on the present basis of
apportionment our Congress is really a
more aristocratic body than most of the
Legislative assemblies in Europe, while if
the present number of representatives is
retained after the next census, when the
population of the country will prob
ably be shown to be 100000,
the ratio of representation would be
100000 instead of 122,627, as now, the
present figures being considerably higher
than in most European countries. The
following is the table, which gives the
number of members in the Legislatures
of the several governments, and the re-
spective ratios of representation of the

and commission business. Returning t.

ident of the Chamber of Commerce, q
Director of the New York Life Insurance
Company, and successfully held other
important positions. He was once the

STATE TAXATION Or NATIONAL
BANKs.-D. L. Harris, Esq. of Spring
field, Mass e, is the author of the PROPOSE,
ton Submitted in Congress by Mr.. Dawes
for the reg Glation of State taxation of ma
tioaal banks. 1t is simply an application
OF the Massachusetts, system of corporate
taxation to the national banks, and is so
fair to all psrties-Siate, banks and gen.
eral government-that it must ultimately
become part of the national banking
system. The State or local taxes on the
shares, real estate and other property or
rights of the national banks, are to be
limited to the same class of taxes on sim
liar property, and so the law would pre-
vent State from taxing the national
banks out of its limits.

RHODE ISLAND ELECTION.-The Re-
publicans of Rhode Island are worthy OF
commendation for the noble work per-
formed by them al the recent election. In
a total vote much heavier than that of
last year-16,7S5 now against 10,7G0 then
they have more than held their own,
thus offsetting the failure in Connecticut,
besides adding to their own prestige. Re.
turns from all the towns in Rhode Island
give Padelford for Governor 10,493
Pierce, 6292; scattering 282. Padelford's
majority over all, 1916. We perceive that
the organs most violently opposed to the
reelection of Senator Anthony admit that
that event will take place. The Republi-
can party in general will be pleased to
hear so much, and will only wish that
there might be complete unanimity in its
behalf

PEARLS.-GULF OF CALIFoRNIA-The
Revenue returns for 1869 received by last
mall from the City of Mexico, show, that
the catch of Pearls and shells for the past
year on the Gulf Coast of the territory
granted to the "Lower California Com
pany" amounted to the large sum of $7S,.
900.
This, of course is the valuation of the
pearls given by the divers and spectators,
and is consequently very much below the
actual value of the catch.
A Pearl is sold frequently for $50
which resold at Panama at 5000, brings
$1,000 in Paris; and in many cases much
