The Insolence Of once.

The New York Times tells that Fed
eral detective recently entered the store
of respectable tobacco merchant in
that city, demanding to see his sales
book for 1869, which was not in the
store at the time. Being refused, he
threatened to break open the safe, and
being insolert, was elected from the
store, whereupon, in the evening, the
officer arrested the merchant and his
porter and marched them, hand cuded
together, through the street to Jail,
where they passed the night. In the
morning they were again handcuffed to-
gcther, and marched through the street
to the Office of United States Com
missioner, by whom they were released
on bail From that time to the present
counsel for defendant has not been able
to procure an examination, but only an
&c parte hearing was had before the
Commissioner, at which only the testi-
mony of the prosecution was taken.
Be it remembered. this United States
detective holds no commission from the
Government, and yet he is able to pro-
cure the arrest of merchants, have them
handcuifed and marched In that condi-
tion through the public streets Ike COM
mon felons, and all to crafty his spite.
1t is simply the second growth of the
seeds of ihsolence and arbitrary power
that class oe persons had sown in them
by Stanton, when at the head of the
War Department. If the war is over,
these United States detectives don't
think their importance terminated with
it. -En0ai,er.

Terrible Devastation by Fire In

Burned Overcome Hundred
Families iIOMeleSS-- wild Beasts
OF the Woods Fleeing In all Di-
rectiOns,
MILWAUKEE, October "A special
correspondence TO the Daily News to-
day from Greer Bay says the fires in
the woods, which have been raging be-
tween there and Luke Michigan, have
extended across Fox river, and cover a
strip of thirty miles wide in Shawana
and Oconto counties, and the large Ium
bering towns of Marinette and Peshligo
are threatened with destruction. The
fires are now raging over three thousand
square miles of territory. One hundred
families are burned out of house and
home, and the refugees arc in Green
Buy and other towns, and at least one
hundred other families are in an equally
had condition. Houses, barns, farm
houses, bridges fences, and absolutely
every thing has been swept away. Pine
forests are destroyed, and bears and
other wild beasts have been driven in
iismay from the woods, and are fleeing
in every direction across the fields. The
entire population are fighting the fires
without success, and many have fallen
down sutfocated by the smoke and heat,
and been carrad by their comrades TO
places OF safety. All the supplies of
food for men and beasts throughout at
least fifty townships have been destroy.
cd, and starvation during the coming
winter stares them in the face.
GREEN BAY, WIS, Oct. 4-The fires
which are now prevailing in six or sew
en- of the northeastern counties of Wis
consin have never had q parallel since
the settlement of the country. The
drouth which has prevailed since early
in August has drie up the springs,
streams and vegetation, and has parch
ed to such depth below the surface
that the soil itself acts as a conductor,
and living trees are falling from the &C
ton of the fire, which undermines them
all. Outstanding property is swept
away, there being so little water in avail
able situations with which to stop the
fire. Barns and their contents, hay.
stacks, corn, wood and other property,
together with hundreds of miles of
fences, are burned
No check can be offered to the ap-.
preaching fires. There is yet DO account
of the loss of life, although Ii a family in
Kennel county and some Indians are
reported burned. The hardest fights
against the flames are made at many
saw mills, which are located among the
pine forests in this region, but many of
them have beer burned All the force
which could be obtained from adjacent
places has been called to the assistance
Of the mills and settlements in some
cases with success, but in many Others
the work has been so long and so har-
rassing, and the men are so exhausted,
that the contest has been given up. In
places where there was no water, the
only available plan has been to dig
trenches around the property, but the
least wind carries large flames of burn
ing bark through the air and renders
such q measure useless.

ScburZ's Opinion OF Grant.

Wherever in the West President
Grant has gone, he has felt the wither.
ing effect of Carl Schurz's denunciations
The cold shoulder is turned on the
Great Reticent in a manner that makes
him shudder for his chances in the com,
ing Republican Convention. Schurz
says of the Gift Taker:
81 will not help to re elect an Officer
whose re election, sanctioning his pre-.
vious acts with popular approval, will
be justification and encouragement to
all future Presidents in committing acts
of usurpation still farther reaching. ]
will not help in paving the way to the
advent Of irresponsible personal GOV.
ernment in this republic; and when ]
am told that by such opposition other
grave interests may be jeopardized, ]
answer that l am very doubtful whether
the wanton levity with which our Presi-
dents are to be permitted to play with
the peace and honor of our people, and
the general decay of constitutional
notions, do not constitute, in their inc.
vitable consequences, as great danger
and perhaps even greater, than any now
within sight"

A Smallpox Remedy.

A correspondent of the Stockton
(Cal.) Herald, writes as follows: Il
herewith append q receipt which. has
been used to my knowledge,in hundreds
of cases. 1t will prevent or cure small
pox though the pittings are filling. When
Renner discovered cowpox in England,
the world of science hurled an avalanche
upon his head, but when the most sci
entifc school of medicine in the world
that of Paris-published this recipe
as a panacea for smallpox, it passed
unheeded. 1t is as unfailing as fate,
and conquers in every instance. 1t is
harmless when taken by well person.
1t will also cure scarlet fever. Here'is
the receipt as l have used il, and cured
my children of scarlet fever; here it is
as l have used il to cure smallpox when
learned physicians said the patient must
die, it cured: Sulphate of zinc, one
grain; foxglove (digitalis), one grain ;
half teaspoonful Of water. When
thoroughly mixed, add four ounces of
water. Take spoonful every hour
Either disease will disappear in II hours.
For child, smaller dc ses, according to
age. If countries would compel their
physicians to use this, there would be
no need of resthouses. If you value
advice and experience. use this for that
terrible disease"

Consumption Of Liquor In Great
Britain.

Lord John Russell, in a speech made
at the Conference of the National Un-
ion for the Suppression of Intemper-
ance," over which he presided, said that
during the five years ending with 1870,
the temperate British people spent for
Intoxicating liquors the nice little sum
of E514, $40, ,34o-about twenty five hun
dred millions of dollars. This amount
is about three times as large as the an
nual income of all the railways of the
United Kingdom; twice as large as the
capital of all the savings hanks; half as
large again as the national revenues for
the whole time, and fifty times as large
as the collective income Of all the re-
ligious and philanthropic societies in
the country. We are sorry to add, on
the authority of the same competent
witness, that the working classes pay by
far the greater share Of this enormous
sum. The calculations given are made
from the amount of liquor which pay
duty.

AlyaII Street Operator,

1t wasrformerly the fashion to regard
the Treasury Department as the depcsi.
tory of the public money; its accounts
were faithfully kept, and its statements
of receipts and expenditures were truth
fll, and easily understood. The books
Of the Register, Treasurer and, Secretary
agreed precisely as to amounts The
imputation of q discrepancy in the ac-
counts OF the public funds would have
startled the country. Now, however,
the Secretary of the Treasury is Wall
street operator-a dealer in gold and
stocks--he sits at the board of brokers,
with the public purse in his hand, ready
10 buy or sell, according to his judg-
ment of tue situation. While he is busy
with these speculations, the Department
takes care of itself, and we defy the most
competent accountant TO determine from
the books Of the Treasury,or the finance
reports, the actual amount of the receipts,
expenditures, or public debt.

WASHINGTON.
The Killing of General Cianton,

A gentleman has just arrived here
from Knoxville who witnessed the kill
ing of Gen. Clanton, ofsAlabama He
says the impression prevails among all
who witnessed the deed that it was de-
li5erate murder. Gen. Clanton was at
the depot with party Of gentlemen,
waiting to take the train for Chattanoo
ga, among the party was Mr.. Fort of
the opposing counsel Of the Alabama
and Chattanooga Railroad case, who in
vited Gen Clanton 10 take drink. He
accepted the invitation, and both started
for saloon near by. when they were
mt by young Nelson. Mr.. Fort intro,
duced Gen. Clanton, and Nelson invi-
ting the latter to accompany them. Mr..
Nelson proposed going to private
place where he know they could get
good liquor, but Gen. Clanton objected,
saying he had only few minutes to
catch the train.
Nelson-You are not afraid, are you
Clanton-No, sir.
Nelson-Well, think you are, and
denounce you as coward.
-Clanton-If you think so just step
out into the street, measure off ten
PAGES, and We will test it.
Instead of doing so, Nelson stepped
into q store, seized q double -barreled
shot gun, advanced into the street, and
fired one barrel at Gen. Clanton, which
missed him. The second shot took eff
feet, twenty buckshot lodging in the
right breast of Clanton, killing him in
stantly. Nelson Immediately mounted
his horse and escaped. Only eight min
utes elapsed between the time of the in.
PRODUCTION of Nelson to Clanton and
the killing of the latter

The. Erection.

The election which takes place to-day
in Ohio, win certainly result in the tri-
umpi ofthe Democratic State ticket pro
vided the party polls its full strength,
The disalfection existing in the Radi-
cal party on the temperance, tariff and
reform issues, warrant us in predicting a
Democratic Legislature in addition to
the election of our State ticket, which
will, next winter, elect Democratic Uni
ted States Senator s.s
Notwithstanding the fact that in this
campaign the Democrats have forced the
Radicals to assume the defensive, all the
advantages gained will be lost if we fail
to poll our full strength The Admins
tration has been pressed and punished
severely; so much so, indeed, that Sec
retaries boutwell, and robson were
sent to Ohio to dcfcad the Radicals and
their corruption. But their defense was
exceedingly lame and only further con-
vinced the People of the trnthfulness of
the damaging charges made by PENDLE-
TON, MORGAN, Ewing, and other Demo
cratic speakers. =.

Our Burden,

From an article in the Cincinnati
Commercial on Tax Reform, we clip the
following suggestive paragraph
''Our burdens Of taxation for the past
ten years have been so enormous as to
excite the incredulity of other countries,
and even the, wonder of our own. Du-
ring the ten years ending June 80, 1871,
the aggregate income of the govern
ment from all sources, excepting loans
and treasury notes, was $3,379,S54, 900,
an average Of about S33S,000, 900 per
annum ;being average per capita of over
50 for every man, woman and child, black
or white, yellow or copper-colored,in the
nation. For some years of the time, we
were unable to collect any tax from the
large territory in rebellion, thus increas-
ing the per capita average among the
population of the Northern States. The
greatest revenue of any single year of
the ten included in the above statement
was $55S,000,O00 in 1866, being about
SIS so per capita of the entire popula-
ton of the States and Territories"

RA young Jewess of Baltimore,

EYA young Jewess of Baltimore
named Miss Bette Jacobs, eloped re-
Gently with Gentle named Altman
The fugitives were married at Wash.
ington, and proceeded to Alexandria for
a quiet honeymoon. The father traced
them up to the hotel and was conducted
up to their room. As the door was
opened the bride exclaimed: "Father,
we are legally married." and then burst
into tears. The father upbraided her
for her act, and forbade her to call him
father again, as she had disgraced both
him and her mother. A dialogue was
carried on between the two amid cries
and sobs, which was only interrupted
whenthe landlord declared that it was
attracting too much attention, and must
cease The father turned to 60, and as
he did so cast fond look at his daugh-
ter, ard to her frantic "Good bye, ia
ther," said: 81 will 60 home, put Grape
Oh my hat, and mark you on the re-
cord, Died September 10, 1871" And

SALT LAKE, October 3.-Brigham
Young was too i'll to appear in court this

Deputy Marshals. The arrest has Gre
ated some sensation, but no popular ex-

General H. A. Morris, formerly in
command here, arrived last night under
orders to report at Camp Douglas. He
was welcomed on the streets to-day en-
Enthusiastically. A company of cavalry

The Annexation of Mexico.

New YORK, October 2-Reliable in
formation has been received here that
there exists widespread organization
of Ex Confederate officers, soldiers and
politicians, including, also, many per-
sons who served in the Federal army,
whose purpose is to bring about the
annexation of Mexico, peaceably if .hey
can, forcibly if they must. This organ
ization expects to secure the annexation
of Mexico within five years. Joseph
E. johnson, the famous Confederate
General, is chief of the organization
Rosecrans is in sympathy with the move
ment, and John A Logan is also named
as one of the prominent members. 1t
is believed that Juaraz himself is not
unfriendly to the objects sought The
demand for annexation is to begin in
Mexico. Newspapers advocating the
cause will soon be started there and the
coming winter will see the fruits of q
movement long contemplated, but only
now about to be sprung upon the two
Republics.

A Convention Scene.

The following scene in the New York
Radical State Convention last week, at
Syracuse, is from the pen of reporter
who WAS present:
"Chairs and table legs were freely
used by the defenders of the citadel, ,and
fists and canes by the attacking party
At last one Of the latter drew pistol,
but before he could use it he was felled
to the floor by blow from the back of
one of the iron seats. laying his cheek
open and putting him hors du combat
"Tbere were cries of Put down those
pistols Don't shoot 'Killsthe son of a
r-,' Kill him. BLOW his brains out,
open the door, Not id one of you
will get in You'll all get in,'. DC. Ejae-
ulations more expressive than elegant
were indulged,in until the place seemed
worse than Bedlam." , ~ s..
