a WONDERFUL MoNsTRosITY.-The
may be seen at COoper's Hotel, in Lancas-
ter, curious freak of nature in the shane
of pig that has two pair of ears lone pair
seemingly growing out of the back of the
head, ten legs, two distinct bodies, and
only one head. The head of the pig is per-
feet, and the flesh is intact to the shoulders
where it separates, and then branches off
INTO two other bodies, SO to speak. The
monstrosity is one out of litter of seven
pigs that were born on the farm of John II
Herr, West Lampeter. This whatever-it-
maybe was born dead, while the rest of the
plggles were born alive, and are thriving
as well as can be. The first glance one
takes at the monstrosity he would think
tiIat 1t was three pigs grown together, the
hndquarters of two growing from the body
OF third. A physician who examined the
curiosity asserted that it had but one throat,
one heart, and one set of brains.

Some few weeks ago, Cyrus Elder,
ESQ. Of Johnstown, read paper, or
it may be more proper to style it an
article, before the Social Science As
sociation Of Philadelphia, on the vital
and important subject Of the present
anamoIous and unjust tax system Of
PENNSYLVANIA We have not vet found
time to pcruse Mr.. Elders paper, al
though furnished with a copy soon
after it was read before the Association
named, and hence can only form our
opinion as to its scope and character
from the many complimentary notices
Of it which we have seen in the leading
papers of both parties, and especially
in the Journals Of the city Of Philadel-
phia. Mr. Elder is well known to be
a gentleman of ability i'll his profession,
as we'll rs forcible and vigorous wri-
ter on literary and scientific subjects
generally. Besides this, he is full Of
research. and did not, we have no doubt,
enter upon the task of submitting his
views on this question, so important to
the people Of the State, without first
having given the matter his most ear
nest and serious consideration. Mr.
Elder as is generally understood in
this county as well as III many other
sections of the State. has always been
strong advocate Of high protective
tariff; but, if we rightly understand
the scope and tenor of the article he
has seen fit to prepare and make pub
lie, he has very materially modified his
former views on the protective policy.
This only affords another illustration
of the old saving: Wise men change
their opinions-fools never do"
Several attempts have heretofore
been made 10y the Legislature to i'm
prove and simplify the tax laws of the
State through the appointment of spe-
ciaI commissions for that purpose but
thus far they have ended in utter and
disgraccfuI failures which only resulted
in entailing thousands of dollars of
expense on the taxpayers. If Mr..
Elders article should he the means of
inaugurating the proper legislation on
this ali-important subject, he will be
entitled to the gratitude and encOniums
Of every taxpayer in the common
wealth. 1t is a question Of great pub
lie concern, but one which the Legis-
lature has hitherto seemed incompe-
tent intelligentlv and practically to
solve, so as to subserve the best inter-
ests Of The people, and therefore Of the
entire State

VIZ. E.rEECe Williams.

The recenS announcement Of Mr.. w.
W. Larkins, Secretary and Treasurer
of the over-assessed tax payers OF New
Hanover, has excited enquiry as to
why the late Secretary and Treasurer,
Mr.. Bruce Williams, has ceased to act.
An explanation exists III the fact that
he has resumed his collegiate course
of studies at Wake Forest Col
lege. From the best of motives
lie has seen proper to devote portion
of his vacation to the service OF his
over-taxed and impoverished fellow
citizens in manly and patriotic re-
sistance to oppression. He has shown
himself to be talented gentleman and
a fine stump speaker. New Hanover
has cause to be proud of this promis-
ing son. Let him, by patient waiting
and laborious study, persevere in his
course of mental discipline and prepa-
ration, and his day of success and
honor will surely come. He has made
many friends, and deservedly, by his
support of the cause of the taxpayers.
