HAVANA, March 3l.-A rumor pre-

volunteers in the neighborhood of San
Juan de Los Remedas roasted man
alive, first running stake through his

caught by Spanish officers while en-

rage has greatly incensed the people
and many murders on both sides have
resulted. An American gentleman

Southern Outrages.

The Legislature of South Carolina, q
ack-and tar organization called upon
the Radical Governor to say why he
had not used the militia of the Com
monweath to suppress what they de-
signated outrages against the laws in
certain portions of the State. The Gov
ernor replies that he has no informa-
ton of any organized efforts to override
the laws of the Commonwealth; that
cases have been reported, but they are
individual instances of outrage or
crime, which can be reached and pun
ished by the civil laws. While this is
the condition of affairs he declines to
order out the militia, or confess that the
civil power of South Carolina is INSULT
cient to protect all its people. He dep
recates the use of the military power
in time of profound peace, and calls
upon the Legislature to make the civil
arm of the authorities more potent by
the passage Of proper laws. 1t is to be
hoped that General GRANT will trans
NIT this message of Governor SCOTT to
the Senate by supplemental report. 1t
is an official picture of the condition OF
affairs In one portion of the South at
least, and is worth all the Ku. Klux and

The Supply and Price of Wheat.

The Philadelphia Ledger says:
"The important fact is published
that the stock of wheat at the four
principal markets has greatly dimin-
ished since the European war COM
menced. On the 1st of January, 1870,
Liverpool, New York, Chicago and
Milwaukee held 15,423,000 bushels,
while on the 1st of January, 1871, the
stock was reduced to 10,Gi5,000 bushels.
1t Is also stated that the stock of wheat
in London is a million bushels less
than last year. This is explained by
the constant drain of breadstuiI5 from
the opposing armies. France and Ger
many not only cease to furnish Great
Britain with what she needs, but them.
selves demand larger supply than
they have. The export demanded
from the United States is, therefore,
more peremptory than usual, as even
the 50.OOO,OOO bushels, we shipped dur
ing 1870. did not prevent large dimi-
mutton of the stock on hand in British
markets. Since our last crop of winter
wheat was not so large as that of the
preceding year; and the actual stock in
our own markets is not at present so
large as usual it is not probable that
prices of breadstuffs will decline, and
the large exports will in some small
measure supply the loss caused by the
decline and dullness in cotton.

The New System of Education.

Among the plans of the Radicals for
consolidating the country into a despo-
tism, and robbing the States of their
right to regulate their own internal af-
fairs, is that Of National System of
education. Like most, If not all, the
political idiosyncracies that disturb the
harmony of the country, this project
had its birth in New England, and is
put forth by q Massachusetts, member
of Congress named GEORGE FRIsBIE
HoAR, That end of the Union is IA
nous for wanting all public matters
made over the same block, providing
the Yankee block is used as pattern.
To give substance to his views Mr..
HoAR has introduced bill into Con-
gress by which he proposes to establish
uniform system of education all over
the country. 1t provides for the over
turning of the common school systems
of the several States, and the substitu-
ton of National System in their
stead. Among other things it provides
for appointment, by the President, of
superintendent of Instruction for each
State, at a salary of $4,000 per annum,
and as many division inspectors at a
salary of $1,000 each, as the State has
Representatives in Congress, and q
whole army of local superintendents at
SO per day. There are provisions for
renting or building school houses, fur
nishing books, and tax ing property Tor
school purposes where none can be had
by voluntary contract. Such measure
would enable the party in power to
maintain a political propaganda of
about thirty thousand educators, and
control about thirty million dollars
worth of additional patronage. 1t
provides for the collection of $50,000,-
600 annually by direct taxation for
school purposes.
A system of this kind would prove
both an engine of corruption and tyr
amy, besides giving to the general
government powers that were never
contemplated. by its founders, and
which would ultimately destroy it. In
Pennsylvania we have built up sys
tenn of public instruction, after nearly
forty years labor, which is adapted to
our wants, and we do not believe our
people will consent to have it taken
away by Congress. This is but Radi-
cal plan to control the education of the
country, thinking thereby it will aid
them to bolster up their waning power.
We do not believe the States are will
ing to surrender the power Of educa-
tion to the general government, and
therefore look to vigorous opposition
to this Objectionable measure.-Doyles-
tom Democrat.

The Indian Peace Commission.

The recent council of Indian Com
|mlssioners in this city has not been
without warning to the politicians of
the Radical party. They have been
told as plainly as resolutions can indi'
cate that any nervous anxiety they
may feel regarding the welfare of the
savages may as well be suppressed, In
asmuch as the commissioners Except.
ing Commissioner PARKER) are de-
termined to run the Indian Bureau
themselves, which they intend to do on
the principle of ignoring secular objects
as much as possible. The philanthrop.
lists express great independence of ac-
ton, and assert that If they are inter-
fered with in the business they have
been commissioned by the President to
execute, they will at once give up all
authority and retire. In the several
interviews which have been had with
the President, the commissioners have
received assurances that he will harmo-
nize with them in all matters they may
deem essential for the practical benefit
of the Indians. The real Commission
or of Indian Affairs, General PARKER,
is consequently, of slight Importance,
as he is subordinate to the Board of
commissioners and religious communi-
ties. In this connection it may be said
that the replication of PARKER to the
voluntary report of Mr.. WELSH will
be met by a rejoinder Of charges more
specifically expressed even than before.
The Peace Commissioners do not intend
to let the matter rest where it is, and
some of them express confidence that
the Investigation must inevitably result
in the retirement of that oflicial.-

A CONTEMPORARY defines revenue
reform to be 'the substitution of the in
ternal taxgatherer for the tariff on for
eign products, which protects our home
industry" This is keeping entirely
out of view the leading intention of the
revenue reforms, which is, to so reduce
the expenses of the government as to
render only small income necessary,
and to collect that by a tax upon such
articles as do not enter into the home
necessities of the poor. At the present
time, protection means the adoption of
laws by which few interests will be
benefited at the expense of the general
business of the country. Tariffs are
made by "Rings" of corrupt jobbers,
and members of Congress vote for this
or that rate of duty, as they are let into
The arrangement. This is not a legiti-
mate tariff, in any sense, and yet spe-
cial interests raise the cry of protection
to American industry, and thus blind
the eyes Of those who do not examine
the question. These mOnopolists, in
and out of Congress, oppose any reduc.
tion in the expenses Of the government
They want the needs of the Treasury
great, as an excuse for adding to the
rate of taxation upon certain imports.
But the Revenue Reformers will tear
the mask from this fraud and show,
that with proper and honest admins
tration of the government taxation OF
all kind could be reduced, and business
men make fair percentage on the cap
ital and labor. 1t is the corruption and
robbery of the Radical party which
make both the internal tax gatherer and
the Collector of the Custom House
dues necessary at this time.-Age.

JOHN MORROW, the California aero
nautic enthusiast, is still engaged in
perfecting his principle for the success
full construction of an air-ship. He has
devised an aerial navigator which he
thinks will answer the purpose intend
ed. 1t is twenty-seven feet long, ten
feet in breadth, and ten feet deep. Its
capacity is seventy-fve pounds. The
navigator carries boiler which, on
reaching height of fifty or sixty feet,
has to be replenished. An experiment
was made with this invention few
days ago in SanFrancisco, which prov
ed successful. He assembled to a dis.
tance of two hundred yards. Mr.. NOR
ROW has devoted ten years of study to
the principle of aerial navigation. The
trouble with the present air-ship seems
to be the necessity of replenishing the
boiler at intervals.

TIE query is started among some of
the political friends of the President as
to how Governor GEARY, with his ad-
yocacy of the ancient Democratic doc
trine of the sovereign rights of States,
can mingle in complete harmony with
the Union League ideas, in such direct
antagonism to this principle, and in
close political relationship to the Presi-
dent, who so frequently and so thor
oughly violates that doctrine. The
wonder is expressed as to whether there
was any allusion to the subject in the
consultation which took place at the
White House between the Union
League committee, headed by GEARY,
and the President Washington Pa

A BAIR TAKEN IN BY A FoX.--A
week ago last Monday, says the Adro.
cate, Washington Bair, offspring town
ship, being out hunting, his dog scared
up fox, which took refuge in hollow
stump fifteen feet high. Bair, on COM
ing to the stump, set down his gun aud
climbed to the top for the purpose of
reaching the fox. While on the top of
the stump, the wood being decayed and
rotton, broke from his hold, and the
hunter fell inside, while the fox ran
out, and he was thus left alone in a
very uncomfortable situation-in fact
in trap. Nothing daunted, however,
Bair took out his knife and set to work
to hew his way out, which he accom-
piisned after much whiting. He re-
mained in this novel situation from
Monday at 10 O'Clock, till Tuesday
night near midnight, over thirty-six
hours.-Per1y County paper.

Important Decision.
THE MYTH AMENDMENT UNCoNsTITU
TIONAL.

TIONAL.
The Supreme Court of the State of
California has decided the XVIII
amendment to be unconstitutional.
The question arose in a case entitled
"The People VS.. Brady" the exact inn
port of which we are not apprised Of,
but its consideration involved the val
idity of the XVIII amendment, and
the court held it to be imperative and
void, for the reason that it was not
within the scope of the powers cover
ing the amendments, and because it
had not been adopted in the manner
prescribed by the constitution. There
can be no doubt that this decision will
be ultimately sustained by heSupreme
Court of the United States. 1t being
fact perfectly clear to every person ia
miliar with the constitution, that in
the incorporation of this amendment to
the organic law, the legal requirements
governing such cases, were not observ-
ed, either in spirit or letter.
We apprehend the time is not far dis.
tant, when such "wild cat" legislation
as those series of acts termed "war
measures" will be subjected to such
careful examination as will result in
upsetting the legality of every one of
them.-Er.
