A Human Hog.

The City of Los Angeles, Cal, is just
now honored with the presence of
most extraordinary glutton. He is
native of the Grand Duchy of Monaco,
and seems to have had an eventual lie.
At the age of three years he could mas
ticate course dried beef, and at nineteen
had such voracious appetite that the
Grand Duke, probably fearing famine
in his small principality, sent him as one
ofa purchased quota,to Romania, whence
he afterwards escaped to the United
States. Immediately on his arrival at
Los Angeles he ate thirty-four pounds
weight of pork, pork fat, train oil and
tallow candles, and subsequently con-
sumed all cold joints of good-humor-
ed restaurateur, to whom he offered a
twenty five cent stamp to cover the DAM
ages. The citizens of Los Angeles, like
all Californians, have peculiar fondness
for "big things" and the result is, that
instead of rding til, "big eater" out of
.own on rail, they have taken hold of
him with their accustomed enthusiasm,
and now. offer to back him for square
meaP' against the world. ~

Depriving the Poor of Med,eines.

Stealing the cents off dead negrn's
eyes is popularly regarded as the utter
most stretch of meanncss, but there are
forcible reasons for believing that rob-
hing the living is more injurious Nan
ruhhing the dead, and that, therefore,
stealing acorns from a blind hog and
milk from n sick kitten have claims for
the first premium for meanncss.
The tariff monopolists, with character
istic shrewdncss, have avoided any en-
harrassment on this question hy stealing
the cents as we'll as the milk and acorns.
If they de- not literally take the cop
| pers from the darkened or5s of the de-
funct darkey, they certainly abstract
them in advancc,so that his sable spouse
must from sad necessity see him blindly
staring at vacancy.
And there is quite as much plain fact
and as little metaphor in their stealing
the means of relief from the sick and the
afflicted as in their penny pilfering from
the INDECENT dead.
We have heretofore shown how two
firms pick the pockets of every fever
stricken victim by the thievish tariff on
quinine. We add few more items in the
same line:
Flour Of birthstone is taxed $40 pei
ton and Is per cent adj valorem.
Alum is taxed GO per cent.
Refined borax 33 per cent
| Cod liver oil 20 per cent.
The amount annually consumed OF
these commodities is estimated at S2,.
100000 worth, of which sum not less
than S500,000 is taken from the consum.
ers by means of the tariff.
4 Now the revenue derived by the gov
ernment from these articles amounted
for the year 1869 tojust s27,363 II
which leaves the nice little plum of S472
636 % for half dozen pet monopolists
On this point Commissioner WELLS
l. (who was turned out of office for not con
cealing such facts, says:
The government, to all intents ant
: purposes, has in addition to all its othe
: business become partner in the -four o
; birthstone, alum, refined boraX, and cod
liver oil trade, and runs the establish
ments of some three or four manufactu
, rers Of these articles, at yearly eXpen
7 diture of S500,000 to the people, where
e by its own gain is S27,363 ~
y This stealing of medicines from tn
, sick is simply atrocious, and its mean
D ness bears the same proportion to tn
b milk and acorn stealing that the life of
= sick child bears to sick kitten.
u These are merely drops from the grea
: ocean of tariff iniquity.

Failing Courage Revived.

The Toledo Blade (Rad.) is one OF
the presses of the country that regarded
the, Orangemen's difficulty in New York
as of any account only as it might ben
eft the Republican party. The terror,
the blood split, the lives lost, the prop
erty destroyed, the rights of organiza,
tions to the use of the streets, all were
nothing beside the question: GLOW
much will our party be benefited ?" In
late article on the subject, in which
the New York Herald's impressions as
to the effects of the riot on the Demo
cratic party are quoted, the Blade says: ::
Let the Republicans take courage
something it would seem they have
been failing in.-ED. Enc and be wise
in their plans for the coming campaign,
and victory will be ours" The Blade
evidently considers the New York riot a
Godsend to the Republican party.

AneCIOte OF Pulaski,

doubt if in the American army of
the Revolution, says &C." in the New
York Ledger, there was another who
could equal Count Pulaski either in
horsemanship or as swordsman. His
feats were the wonder and envy of his
officers, and many we're the serious in
juries received in trying to initiate him.
1t is related of him that, with his horse
at full gallop--and he always rode a
magnificent charger-he would discharge
his pistol, toss it into the air and catch
it by the barrel, then hurl it at some OBJ
ject in advance; and then, without in the
least checking the spead of his horse, he
would slip one foot from the stirrup, ,and
bending over toward the ground, recov.
er his pistol, and wheel into line with as
much ease and precision as though he
had been engaged in ordinary exer-
else.
During the retreat of the American
army through New Jersey, when the ma
tons prospects were almost at their
darkest, Pulaski, with a small body
guard, was pursued by a party of Brit.
ish cavalry, the leader of whom was on
accomplish horseman, and mounted
nearly, if not fully, as well as the gal
liant Pole himself. Pulaski rode in the
rear of his detachment, while the Brit
ish commander dashed on at the hea(

shadows across the way, and as the pur

Pulaski, having satisfied himself of tlt
superior speed and tact of his owl
horse, slackened his pace and drew

Briton came up in hot haste, with hi.
sword drawn so as to make the decisiv,
cut upon the Pole as soon az he shoult
reach him.
Pulaski gave no token of alarm, bu
kept his eyes fixed warily upon th,
ground at his right Directly he saw
the shadow of the pursuer's horse-thel

lFrom the Cincinnati Enquirer
The New DISGRACE.

The way the Indian policy of the
Government toward the Indians is car
ried out may be learned from the official
report of Lieutenant Whitman to the
War Department, relative to the late
massacre of large number of peacea-
bic Indian women and children in Ari.
zona. This massacre was, if any thing
could exceed in atrocity the Piegan
butchery by Phil Sheridan, the most
heinous of all that has so Ear strained
the character of the United States in
their treatment of the Indians.
Here was camp of friendly Indians
within hailing distance of United
States military camp, and under it's pro-
lection, that was attacked by band of
whites and one hundred and twentv-six
killed, all women and children but one
old man and one we'll grown boy. The
wounded, those not killed outright when
the assault was made, and who were un-
able to make their escape, had their
brains beaten out with stones or clubs,
while some were shot full of arrows af-
ter having been mortally wounded by
gunshot. The bodies were all stripped
by those who committed the massacre.
Why did the Military Commandant at
Camp Grant, near where this massacre
took place, and under whose protection
those friendly Indians were, allow the
butchery to take place? He says that
on the morning of April 80, while at
breakfast, dispatch was brought him
from Captain Plum, commanding Camp
Lowell, informing him that large party
had left Tucson on the 2Sth with the
avowed purpose of killing all the Indi-
ans at Camp Grant He Immediately
sent the two interpreters he had noun
ted to the Indian camp with orders to
tell the chiefs the exact state of things,
and for them to bring the entire party
within the post. He says further: GAS
J had no cavalry, and but about fifty in
fantry, nearly all recruits, and no othel
officer, l could not leave the post to &C
10 their defense. My messengers re.
turned in about an hour with intelligence
that they could find no living Indian
their camp was burning, and the ground
strewn with mutilated women and chill
dren." Such is the way the Washing
ton Administration manages matters in
the Territories. A more disgraceful ex.
hibition of imbccility has not beer
known. Here was an organized mol
that made no secret OF their intentions
to massacre the friendly Indians near
Camp Grant, and under its protection
which intention they accomplished, mur
dering and mutilating some one hundred
and twenty five women and children, ,and
not musket was levcled or saber drawr
to prevent the horrid outrage. The
President is amusing and enjoying him
self at Long Branch, while disgrace is
put upon the American character
through his want of attention to the
necessary duties Of the Executive de
partment of the Government.

The Revolution In Venezuela.

New YORK, July 22.-Steamer advi-
ces from Caracas, to July Sth, have been
received, stating the condition of the
revolution. The Venezuela revolution
lists under General Herrera> have been
very active, meeting with success in
many principal places, and it seems
doubtful if Guzman Blanco, with
his small force, can hold out much
longer.
Barcelona fell into the hands of the
revolutionists after few hours fight
ing. About twelve. hundred Govern
ment troops were sent to retake it but
were beaten and routed in the port of
Porzuelos, near Barcelona, on the 18th
of June. Cunnena surrendered to Gen
eral Olivo next day and General Ouch
ana, revolutionist took Campano. Ma
turcno was also taken by the Revolu-
tionists The whole East is in arms
against Guzman.
General Herrera is in the West with
two thousand infantry. two hundred
cavalry. The United States mail was
detained and searched and all letters OF
revolutionists kept Many people are
leaving the country. Business is dull
and commercial embarrassment prevails.

EESeveral of the most enterprising
Of the South and Central American
States are entering upon the constrncI
ton of railroads with great pluck. Chill,
Peru, and Brazil are pushing important
lines to completion, and the little State
of Costa Rica has just contracted with
Henry Meiggs for building road from
San Jose, its capital, to the Atlantic
side. Costa Rica has a population of
only 10000, but it has no debt, and is
more productive in proportion to its
size than any other State in either Cen
trail or South America. Its principal
exports are hides and coffee. In Hon
duras road is in progress which is to
reach from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
and will compete for portion of the
traffic which now crosses at Panama.

declaring the Egyptian army an army

Dirty, Dirty Trick.

A very detestable piece of partisan
knavey has been brought to light in
connection with the Ku Klux investisa-
ton. The very Object Of raising the
Committee, which was well understood
To bc the collection of ammunition for
the Radical party, was calculated TO put
the Democrats on the alert but they were
hardly prepared for So scanlalous an
exhibition OF rascality, as was few
days ago, unmaskcd.
The Democratic members cf this com
miitee summoused the foremost men OF
the South, to give testimony as 70 the
condition of society tlicrc,an especially
as to the existence and conduct of the
Ku klux Kan
For soH,e mysterious reasons thcil
witnesses failed to appear. They
thought this little strange, but repress
ed their disappointment until the nonat
tendance of their principal with esses be
came so general as to excite q reasona
bic suspicion that some ardent friend o
the Radical party had an agency in th'
matter.
They telegraphcd to one of their wit
nesses to ascertain the cause of his disc
bedience to their summons and received
the following reply, which exposed tn
whole detestable trick:
