HARRISBURG, March 31.-The Senate is not
in session.
House.
The House devoted its whole time to the Re-
publican AppOrtionment bill which passed
finally by party vote at $50 o'clock, and will
go to the Senate as reported by the House Com
mittee on Apportionment, without amendment.
The Democrats alleged that the Senate will re-
fuse to adjourn until n bill which they deemed
fair was passed. The Republicans, replying,
asserted that they would carry a bill fair to
them, or be satisfied next election with the ap-
portionment of 1864. TIE Senate and House are
Certainly diametrically opposed on this measure.
Mr.. Hager (Rep.) protested emphaticaly
against what he deemed an injustice done by
the Republican ApportionmeHt Committee TO
his district, but he voted for the bill.
Adjourned till Tuesday morning.

Still Onward and Upward.

The extraordinary increase that has
taken place in the sale of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters during the past year is another
proof that an intelligent people, although
they may try all things, hold fast only to
that which Is good. No amount of pufiery
can lift inferior articles 10 the position ol
standard specifics. To use the words OF
Tom Payne, they may go up like rocket
but are sure to come down ANONYMOUSLY
like its extinsuished stick. Hundreds OF
such nostroms have gone up and come
down since the introduction OF HoStetter's
Stomach Bitters, nearly the fifth OF GEN.
fury ago. Yet ii still remains the supreme
tonic OF the age. 1t has not, and never has
had, a rival in efficacy or popularity, and
now stands at the head of al proprietary
remedies manufactured on this sidn nf the
Atlantic. In every civilized community on
this continent, or in South America, it Is
the accepted remedy for dyspepsia, bilious
complaints, constipation, general debility,
nervous weakness and many other un
pleasant or dangerous maladieS. medi'
cine so widely extended is of course pirated
and initiated by dealers without conscience
or integrity.
Therefore, let every man and woman who
designs TO purchase the genuine Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, see to ii that they have
what they pay for, and not the results OF an
Infamous imposture. Look carefully al
label, stamp and name blown in the glass
and do not forget that the true JatcrS is sold
in bottles only.

nm. San pomingo Job Again.

From the Washington Patriot, September l.
An edition Of FIVE thousand extra
copies of the report OF the San Do
miugo Commissioners has recently been
issued from the Government Printing
Office, by direction of the President,
and is now being distributed over the
country directly from the White House.
This extraordinary proceeding Is in
keeping with the presence OF the naval
force at San Domingo, which is main
tanned there for no other purpose than
to prop up the despotism Of Baez, and
to keep alive the corrupt scheme OF
annexation. The edition Of this report
which Congress authorized was exhaust
ed, and the President had no power, OF
his own accord, to order another, just
as the Public Printer had no right to
issue it. The publication will probably
involve an expenditure of twenty-five
or thirty thousand dollars, which has
been incurred without the least color OF
law or propriety.
II anything were wanting to show
the Presidents persistent purpose and
defiance OF public opinion in this mat
ter, it would be found in the fragrant
abuse of the National flag at San Do
mingo, which is used there to cover a
corrupt lob, and in this reckless and
shameful disqualification of the public
money, to serve a personal end. We
say personal, because it is susceptible
of the clearest proof that the President
has contingent interest in the Specu-
lation at San Domingo. 1t is asserted,
without the fear Of successful contra
diction, and we defy the Republican
majority in Congress to order an inves-
tigation, composed of honest anc fair
men, to test its truth. The San Do
mingo scheme is divided into one hun
dred great shares, each OF which Is
subdivided into another hundred. Fa-
bens is the agent of Spofford ~ Co., OF
Holiday, and the men who have fur
nished the money thus far employed,
in addition to the $4,000 corruptly
taken out of the Treasury here. The
ships of war, the prostitution OF the
stars and stripes at SANTANA. the EN-
ployment of a coal agent there and
hostility to Hayti, are the elements OF
capital furnished from Washington.
1t is, therefore, not difficult TO imagine
what share OF interest in this job is
held at the White House, from which
the whole policy is directed.

The city OF Cumberland is just now
infested with thieves and burglars. and
the police force seems inadequate for
the protection of the property OF the cit
liens. Accordingly a Vigilance Com
mittee has been formed and stringent
measures are to be adopted for Kidding
the town Of the pest. Some of the
thieves assume the guise OF beggars
and enter houses in daytime for pur'
poses OF observation, and in several in
stances they have grossly insulted ladies
whom they found alone.

THERE is trouble in the Treasury
Department. Some inquiry was recent
ly made concerning million dollars
which were said to have been lost at
sea, but the officers OF the department
confess that they have no record OF the
numbers and series OF the missing notes
and in fact do not know whether they
were legal tenders or compound inter.
est notes. A million dollars have thus
by confession been issued from the
treasury without record, and public Gu
riosity is stimulated to know whether
any reliance can be placed in the books
of the department and whether there
is any means of ascertaining the
amount of United States currency now
in circulation. The financial state
ments of the various officers of the
Treasury disagree, the difference being
more than hundred millions Of dollars.
Boutwell, states the public debt more
than one hundred millions higher than
SPINNER, and the suspicion is springing
up that there has been large over.
issue of bonds and that somebody has
profited immensely thereby.
These are grave charges and should
be met by the officers in charge Of the
Treasury Department. Efforts at in,
vestigation have been repeatedly made
10y resolution in Congress, but the Rad
ical majority has sternly refused to per
NIT any examination OF the books and
has diligently labored to conceal from
the public the true condition of affairs.

She said she had nice ripe tomatoes

them, and hangs them in a room or

The Radicals are constantly claiming
that they are reducing taxes. They
well know that there is scarcely word
of truth in the statement. The people
know that there is not, because they
pay more taxes every year. The
Rochester Union puts these two facts
side by side as an evidence OF the way
taxes are being reduced:
Tariff taxes paid in 1871 sg6,2,U 10,
Tariff taxes paid in lS1O l9iS5S,3Ii
