PREPARATION OF COMPOUND ExTRAc
Blu c H:
a,e hh component parts are Buchu, Long
Fl Cubebs, Juniper Berries.


Mode of Preparation.-Bu chu, in vacuo,
Juniper Berries, by distillatio /, to form a
fine gin. Cubebs extracted by displacement
with spirits obtained from Juniper Berries;
very little sugar is used, and a small proper
ton of spirit. 1t is more palatable than any
now in use.
Buchu, as prepared by, Druggists, is of a
dark color. 1t is plant that emts its fra
GRANGE; the action of a fame destroys this
its active principle,) leaving dark and
glutinous decoction. Mine is, the color of in
gradients. The Buchu in my preparation
predominates upon inspection, it will be
found not TO be q Tincture, as made in Phar-
macopoa, nor is it Syrup, and therefore can
be used in cases where fever or inflammation
exist In this, you have the knowledge of
the ingredients and the mode of preparation
Hoping that you will favor it with a trial.
and that upon inspection it will meet with
your appreciation.

THE NEW DEADLOCK.

ANOTHER deadlock has occurred in the State
Legislature originating in the determination
of the Democratic Senators to compel the
Republican House to consent to certain
amendments to the Registry law. If no
compromise is effected, several bills of gene
raj interest, and large number of private
measures, will fail to become laws. The bill
providing for constitutional reform will be
defeated, and the Appropriation bill will be
jeopardized. AS matters now stand, both
parties threaten that they will go to the peo-
pie on the issue as it is made up, thus carry
ing the legislative quarrel into
q popular canvass. 1t therefore behooves the
Republican House to be quite certain that it
is we'll armed at all points before it accepts
this gage of q general battle, and to carefully
consider whether portion Of the Democratic
demand for a modification of the Registry
law should not be granted.
There can be no doubt that the existing ar
rangements for counting the returns of the
elections of this city are dangerously defec-
tive, and that the proposed remedy of having
them counted in the presence of the Judges
of the Court of Common Pleas seems to be
at once necessary and likely to be eficacious
in averting existing evils. The Republican
party, being party of law, order, and justice,
cannot afford, on point like this, to take
issue with the Democracy. 1t is no part of
its legitimate functions to shield men who
venture to tamper with fair elections, or to
afford to dishonest return judges opportuni-
ties to nullify the popular will. The only
valid argument in favor of the Registry law
is it's usefulness in preventing such frauds
as Democratic leaders have notoriously prac-
tised in former elections, particularly in the
fall elections of 1868; and no man will pre-
sumo to say this object cannot be better at
tanned by provision requiring that the re-
turns shall be counted in the presence of the
Judges of the County Courts, than by a sys-
tenn which excites distrust and indigna-
tion, and which has already led to dan
gerous scenes of violence.
On this single point therefore, we think it
would be at once just and polite for the Re-
publicans of the House to defer to
the demands of the Democratic Senator's.
Any effort of the latter to make such vital
changes in the Registry law as would once
more hand over the city to the tender mer-
cies of the ballot-box suffers of 1868 should
be stubbornly resisted; but it is to the interest
of all good citizens that the returns of our
elections should be peacefully and fairly
counted, and this feature of the Democratic
programme should be at once acceded to by
the Republicans.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1871-05-22

also be proved that the Collec-
tor of Delinquent Taxes has sent his
iinpudent circulars to persons who have
already paid the tax, but who, in case their
receipts we're lost or mislaid, would have no
remedy but to pay it again. Can it, in view
of these facts, be asserted that the business
of collecting this tax is conducted in other
than loose, IRE e9ular, and improper manner2
1t is useless for the Division Board. the Re-
ceiver, or the Collector to contend that
they have not ample power to get
every dollar due them under the law,
for all the enactments with regard to
the militia tax have been prepared in this city
by those interested and carried up to Harris
burg and engineered through the Legislature.
If those entrusted with the collection of the
tax have not sufficient power they themselves
are alone to blame. The fact is, however,
that no persons are better aware of the utter
inutility of the militia tax, to any but those
who get their living by its collection, than
the Division Board and those in its employ;
and the officers of the board, in the statement
before us, freely admit that the principle of
supporting the militia by Communication tax
is wrong in principle and practice. We ap-
prove decidedly of a tax for the support of
the militia, but it should be sufficient
for the purpose, and it should be paid by the
public at large, and not by portion of the
community only. We hope. therefore, that
the Legislature will begin the work of reform
by abolishing the present useless and odious
commutation tax, and then proceed to reor-
ganize our militia system upon proper basis,
and provide suitable means for its support
which will bear equally upon all.

political or moral action they subscribe to,
which are, to get Office by any possible means;
to make as much as possible out of the pub
lie by any possible means; and to remain in
Office as long as possible by any possible
means. Honesty is word such schemers as
these have long since ceased to believe in,
and the public offices they consider
as but their lawful prey, and
the manipulation of election returns as the
best and safest method of obtaining Office.
Brill was one of the instruments used to ac-
complish their purposes, and as he had been
useful in the past so he might be in the fu-
ture; at any rate, the "Unconditionas" con-
sidered it incumbent on them to take care of
their friends, and the prompt surrender of
Geary proves that he has greater ambition to
be in the good graces of the friends of Brill than
to retain a spotless reputation as man and as
the Governor of q great Commonwealth.
We understand a regular bargain was
made between Geary and the "Uncon-
ditionals" for the pardon of Brill, and the
pardon was granted not because any
good and sufficient reasons could be
assigned for the release of the criminal, but
because the Unconditional Pardon Club
guaranteed to endorse Geary and to procure
favorable mention of him in the resolutions
to be passed by the convention. The follow
ing, which appears among the resolutions,
represents part of the price paid for the libe-
ration of Brill from durance viie:-.
'That our confidence in the hrmness, wisdom, and
integrity of our present worthy Governor, John w
Geary, remains mistaken, and that we believe his
qualifications for the offlce he now holds are un-
questionable as is clearly proven by the manner in
which he has brought the State safely through every
storm"
AS there was not man in the convention
firmness, the wisdom, or integrity of John w.
Geary, it is difficult to find polite word to
characterize this resolution.
Doubtless our pardon granting Governor i'm
agines that the ''Unconditionals" will repay him
by dragging him out" as the Republican
Gubernatorial candidate a third time, or that
they may even insist upon his accepting the
Republican nomination for the Presidency;
but the probabilities are that he will find Mr.
Brill's friends less influential that he expects,
and that despite their dexterous wire-pulling
the people will conclude that the granter of the
Ficken and Brill pardons is not proper per-
son longer to disgrace the executive chair OF
this Commonwealth. AS for the Presidency,
the idea of Geary being the Republican can
didate is too preposterous to be thought OF
for a moment. Despite our warnings Geary
has insisted on committing political hari-kari.
and the Unconditional Pardon Club will not
be able to save him FROM the consequence
of his own act which is political annihilation

IT IS NOW definitely understood that the
Reading Railroad Company has nearly per-
fected arrangements which will, in the near
future, place under its immediate control
sufficient body of anthracite coal lands in the
Schuylkill and Mahanoy regions to supply the
present and prospective demands of this re-
gion. This business change is one of no
slight significance, as it will lead rapidly to a
consolidation of all the diverse interests
hitherto represented by coal-land owners,
operators, and various transporting compa-
nies, under one uniform management, SO
that the Reading Railroad will acquire we'll
nigh absolute power in regulating the supply
and determining the price of coal in the vast
region supplied by her wide-spreading iron
tracks
