The Tichborne case had reached it's

accounts, end still witnesses come for
ward who identify the claimant as Rod

recognition of multitude of minute
and ingenious tests. A correspondent
writes that ''a perfect revulsion OF opin-
ion has occurred since the case was OPEN
ed. and every one declares that the YER
dict must be for the plaintiff" The
famous Tichborne bonds issued by the
claimant, and which sold q short time
ago at few pence on the pound ster-
ling, have advanced TO $40 on the G1OO.

Poultry has brought down the price
Of beef in New York. The World, Of
a few days ago, says:
On Monday last the price of beef in
this city was lower then it has been at
any previous time during the last sew
en- years. From 1863 to 1868 there
was an unusual scarcity of beef in our
markets. scarcity due partly to the
extraordinary demand caused by the
armies in the field and partly to the
fact that the great grazing grounds of
the Middle States were rendered prac-
tically useless by the presence or near
vicinity of either Union or Confederate
troops. Latterly, howeve r, the supply
has more nearly equalled the demand,
and hence the prices have ly but
steadily declined. Just at present
there is glut of poultry and game in
the market, as is usually the case when
the weather is sufficiently cold to per-
NIT its transportation in frozen state.
The butchers have therefore been fore
ed to lower the price of beef in order
to meet the competition of the poultry
dealers, and it is understood that they
are contemplating still further reduc-
tion of prices.

EffrOntery of the Land Grab Lob
byiSts.

1t appears that no matter what pro-
ject is started in Washington to be
put through congress in aid of any in
terest, industrial, experimental or
charitable, somewhere in the bill or
resolution will be found a clause au
thorizing land grant. In most cases
the land grant is the only distinct feat
ure Of the bill, leaving other matters,
such as the object of the land dona-
ton, indefinitely stated. A correspon-
dent says:
"The speakers table is now remark
ably clear of bills, there being only
forty.two upon it that have passed the
senate. But of that number thirty
FIVE bills and resolutions contain each
only one distinct feature for legisla-
ton, viz, land grant for railroad,
college, harbor or levee. Thirty.one
of these ask land grants for railroads.
In addition to this there are more than
a hundred bills and resolutions in the
two land committees, a large number
in the Pacific railroad committees,
and several in the commerce commit
tees which ask land grants in aid of
steamship and other schemes, and
about a dozen asking land grants in
aid of ocean cable schemes. The only
ones that are dangerous are those now
on the speakers table, which may be
passed at any time under suspension Of
the rules.

Revenue Reform.

The President confesses in his mes
sage that he does not know anything
about revenue reform. So candid =
confession of ignorance on this subject
wins respect, and We hasten to enlight-
en- him, and others who may know no
more than he.
The President asks, "Whst do these
reformers want p
First. They want TO see as few ar
ticles as possible taxed because every
eax is necessarily an interference with
industry.
Second. They want to see all taxes
and duties reduced to the lowest reve-
nue. poins because thus smuggling is
discouraged, and the honest trader has
q fair chance.
Third. In regard to customs duties,
they want only those articles to pay
duty which are not produced here, be-
cause thus the government will get all
that the people pay, except the mere
cost ofcollection.
Forth. They want to see the govern
ment, when it lays taxes, do so for the
single purpose of raising revenue and
assert that if the people wish to foster
any particular branch ofindustry, this
can be more cheaply done by direct
bounty.
Customs duties are now levied upon
nearly two thousand articles. Ii Is GER
tain that we can raise all the revenue
we need from this source by duties on
less than hundred articles. Now, the
revenue reformers think it more simple,
more business like, more beneficial to
the country, to get the revenue from
the smallest number of articles. They
would, in fact, apply to the customs
revenue precisely the reform which, on
the peoples demand, has already been
applied to the internal revenue.
As between iron or salt, and tea or
coffee, the revenue roformers would lay
duties on the latter and make the for
mer free, because all the people pay as
duty on tea or coffee or sugar the gov
ernment receives whereas, when a du-
ty is laid on foreign iron, for every dol
lar the people pay to the government
they must pay twenty to few already
wealthy iron-masters, who take the du-
ty to raise the price of homemade
iron.
In 1S41, Great Britain raised G2l,.
1884, by duties on 1853 articles, In
1862, she raised f24, ,063. 900 by lower
duties on only A articles. The reve-
nue. reformers ask why We should not
profit by this lesson? For by this ex-
emption of over eleven hundred arti-
cles from duty the working people were
enabled to live much more comfortably,
and many branches of industry flourish
ed which were before failing.
In like manner the experience of
Great Britain has shower that from a
low duty more revenue is raised than
from high one; and as n low duty
makes the people more comfortable.
the revenue reformers wish to substi-
tute moderate duties for the present
high ones.

New York, January An impor-
tant decision was made this afternoon
by Justice Brandy in the Supreme
Court, relating to the right Of stock
holders to examine books Of railroad
companies. Mr.. Churchill according
to recitals in the writ. was the owner
of seventy shares of Erie Railway COM
mon stock. He applied within thirty
days before the election 10 Mr.. Gould,
President, and Mr.. Otis, Secretary, for
inspection of the books, and was de-
MED such inspection. The case was
argued before Justice Brady at the
December term, and in the opioion de-
livered to-day, he decided that the rt-
lator was entitled to peremtory manda-
mus, and awarded him cost, inasmuch
as he had not been permitted to ex-
anime the books Of the company. so
Mr.. Gould was proceeded against as
President Of the company, aud the
company, by its demurrer admits
what Mr.. Gould denies. He refused
costs TO Mr.. Gould.

THE GREAT COAL STRIKE.

Men-RIOOdshed EXnecfed.

Ashland, Pa, Jan. 20.-It is now repol-
ted that all the collieries in the Shamokin
basin have suspended with the exception of
three or four, and great efforts are being
made by the Workingnlen' Benevolent
Association to get the miners at those COL
lieries to stop. In the extreme western end
of the Schuvlkill region there were three
collieries inoperation yesterday. The men
employed there do not belong to the
Workingmen's Benevolent Association.
Some of the striking members of the
Workingmen's Benevolent Association
have made proposals to work there, but il
is doubtful whether they will procure situa-
tions, as the men engaged are sufficient to
operate the mines.
As was anticipated, the suspension has
resulted in acts of violence, the strikers
tampering and fighting with the non-asso.
citation men. Several attacks have been
made in the Shamokin district which have
resulted seriously for both parties Furth-
er and more aggravated disturbances are
expected, as the non-association men will
not quiet, and the strikers are determind to
compel them. Preparations have been
made by.th operators who own these COL
leries TO protect their property and men;
and as they are warelike, it Is not difficult

A railroad meeting was held at
Millheim, on last Saturday, of the cit
liens of, Penn, Haines and Miles, to
confer what action should be taken to
insure the construction ofthe l.. c. 4
s. G. railroad from the forks of Penns
creek to M;llheim, thence TO Spring
Mills, instead of following Penns
creek to the latter place as now pro-
posed. The meeting, we are informed
was largely attended and II was re-
solved to raise $40, 900 to be offered to
the company, upon condition that the
road. be brought to point at or near
Millheim, and thus secure the great
est possible railroad accommodation
for the people of Brush valley and
Haines and Penn townships. COM
mittees were appointed in the lower
townships to raise the above sum.
The people of the lower end should
and we trust will-receivo every ad-
vantage which the topography of that
country shows they can have. They
have raised their share of the stock
for the grading of the road, and that
section represents some 100000 al
ready subscribed, which is big item
in tho stock subscriptions along the
route. fit is possible to make Mill.
helm a point, we hope it will be made
such; they have right to present
their claimes, and offer extra induce
ments for having the road take that
direction-and should it be necessary
to 90 to little diversion on the line,
they should be favored without an ad'
ditiional cent, unless the obstacles to
be overcome in SO doing would out
weigh any induoement they may offer
in which event-they being satisfied
that such is the case-we know they
will be content, let the road go wher'
1t may. We feel satisfied that it is tht
intention of the company to do its ut
most to favor where the interests o
the road allow tive know that any
section presenting its claims-as it hai
a right to do-will receive hearing
and if the people of the lower end car
present a favorable route from Mill
helm to Spring Mills, let them tak'
immediate action, and lay the fact be
fore the proper officers; we are SURE
they viii get the support and sympa
thy of every stock holder west o
Millheim.
