BIG BURGLARY PREyESTED.-A dis
patch dated Philadelphia April "a says:
About half'past 10 O'Clock last night
the Waterman of the Southwark Bank
heard a noise, as if some one was at
tempting to force an entry into The safe,
and called the cashier, who resides next
door. The latter also heard the sounds,
and Immediately ordered the bank to be
opened, when it was found that the door
leading to the yard was fastened from
the inside by screws With large heads.
which bad been screwed in by burglars
to prevent entrance. After gaining ad-
uittance it was discovered that the
scoundrels ad made their escape through
the roof, through which they had also
entered. They left all their tools, made
of the best materials, consisting of
ctowhars, jimmies, augers, bits, cold
chiseis, lanterns, &c. The inside doors
were completely broken up by the burg.

FaozRx GIANT PowDsR DAHaERoUs.-
The Alpine Miner Of the 10Th inst. says
this fact was plainly ehown q week or
two since BY Mr.. McCuen, of Silver
Mountain. Finding the powder more
compact in the box than usual, he went
to work digging it up, when it took fire
and burned so rapidly that his house was
entirely consumed. This changing the
nature of giant powder by freezing is
now considered the greatest objection
to it, and we hope some remedy may be
found therefor. In the meantime let
those who have anything to do with this
powder be very careful to place it where
it will gradually tbaw out and become
loose or soft before using or handling.
Don't try to use it in the CONCEALED
state, or even handle it, except with
great care.

SENATOR Cole SUED.-During the trial
of Senator Coles brother in Albany,
about one year ago, the former engaged
the services of a prominent lawyer in
New York, and contracted with him,
that if he cleared his brother he would
pay him large sum. The brother was
cleared, but the Senator forgot his con-
tract. The attorney sued and obtained
judgment against the Senator in New
York, and the claim was forwarded to
a prominent attorney in Washington for
collection, and in all probability will
find its way to California.-S- f. SPIRIT

GoRHAM vs. CoLE.-For some time

The position be held. We have not
shared in this belief, nor in the fears of
its probability entertained by some of
Mr.. Gorbam's friends. The Senate
could not avoid investigating charges of
improper conduct in one of its officers
when preferred by one of its own men,
bers. But we have been unable to be-
lieve, from the first, that any consider
able number of members of that august
body would vote to remove an officer
upon grounds so utterly frivolous and
contemplate as that he had pitted his
influence against that of Senator. We
are not at all surprised, therefore, al

DIVORCE DEcIsIoN.-A case has been
decided by the Supreme Court of this
State which is of considerable interest
to divorced persons. 1t seems that a
man by the name of Godoy obtained a
a divorce from his wife in Kern county,
on the ground of criminal conduct, and
that the decree did not state that the
property was awarded to the husband.
An attempt was made by Godoy to sell
the property, but an injunction was
granted, which has been sustained by
the Supreme Court, thus giving the div
orced wife half the property. The de-
cision is to the effect that a decree
must divide or award the common prop
erty. or the wife retains her Rights.

President GRANT AND THE INCOME

President GRANT AND THE INCOME
TAX. A Washington correspondent
states that the President says he is not
opposed to the income tax, as stated,
but wishes the tax reduced to three per
cent, instead of FIVE, with $4,000 ex-
emptiou, and the removal of some other
odIous features. He would then like to
have it continued for three years. He
thinks that at the end of three years
the condition of the Treasury will be
such as to justify the repeal of the tax
entirely.

WEST VIRGINIA OIL AND Coal ITEMs.-
The Clarksburg Telegraph says that when
the oil we'll at the mouth of Elk creek was
being bored, vein Ct bituminous coal
seventeen feet in thickness was encountered
by the operators at the depth of fiYe hund-
red and ten feet. The extent of this vein
is not known, of course, but it is fair to pre-
snme that it extends under the greater part
of the ground upon which the town now
stands. 1t is certainly an immense deposit,
and TO future generations will prove of great
valne.

THE SALE OF CADETSMIPs.
From the Buffalo Express.

When the first revelations were made Ia
connection with the sale of cadetships By
members of Congress we remarked that the
case of Hon. s. Newton Pet,is. who repre-.
sented the Twentieth Pennsylvania District
in the last Congress, looked like manu-
| featured one. From the testimony given
before the Military Committee it was made
to appear that Mr.. Bishop, of Titus sville.
paid eight hundred dollars, in constipation
of which his son received an appointment to
West Point through the recommendation OF
Mr. Pettis 1t was observable at once that
no evidence was produced showing that the
money was paid to Mr., Pettis, but it was
alleged TO have been paid TO Major Derrick
son, and by him applied to the payment Of
a note bearing Mr.. Pettis' endorsement. 1t
appears from facts which have come TO light
since the first expose that Major Dericksen
had nephew who was an applicant. for the
cadetsbip; that the Major was personal
friend and warm adherent Of Mr.. Pettis,
and expected to obtain the Recommendation
for his nephew. Also that Mr.. Bishop had
offered to pay literally for the appointment
OF his son. An arrangement was finally
made without any communication with Mr..
Pettis on the subject, that Major Derickson
should withdraw the claims OF his nephew
in favor Of Mr.. Bishops son, and that the
latter should pay certain election expenses
to the amount of eight hundred dollars
Major Derickson waited on Mr.. Petts aud
asked for the nomination Of Mr.. Bishops son
instead OF his own nephew to the caietship.
This request was afterwards acceded TO;
young Bishop appointed aud ihe stipulated
sum paid over by Mr.. Bishop to Major
Derickson. The transaction was generally
known iu its locality at the time aad no ex-
cept,ons were taken to it.
Mr.. Pettis is not member Of lhe present
congress, although he received the unani-
mons vote Of Crawford County in the pri-
mary e.e ction Of 1865, but was defeated in
the nominating convention, and q candidate
put forward who had not received single
popular vote. Political and personal
maignity seems TO supply the dnimus Of
the present agitation Of the matter. II
there had been any wrong in the transac-
tion, the case had passed beyond the reach
of the present Congress, aud it was eyidcnl-
y brought before the committee for the pur.
pose OF killing off Mr. Petis in the ap-
| proceeding Congressional campaign.
