ALL DEfA1sIMENT, 1874.
The illustrations Of The Aldine have
won worldwide reputation, and in tho
art centers of Europe it is an admitted fact
that its wood cuts are examples Of the
highest perfection ever attained. The COM
mon prejudice in favor of "steel plates'' is
rapidly yielding to moro educated and
discriminating taste which recognizes the
advantages of superior artistic quality with
superior facility for production. The wood
cuts of The AIdine possess all the delicacy
and elaborate finish of the most costly steel
plate, while they afford better rendering
OF tho artists original.
To fully realize the wonderful work which
The Aldine is doing for tho cause OF art
culture i'll America, it is only necessary to
consider the cost to the people of any other
decent representations Of the productions
of great painters.
In addition to designs by tho members OF
tho National Academy, and other noted
American artists, The Aldine will repro
duce examples Of the best foreign masters
selected with n view to the highest artistic
success and greatest general interest. Thus
tho subscriber to The Aldine will, at a
trifiing cost, enjoy in his own home tho
pleasures and refining influences of true art,
Tho quarterly tinted plates for 1874 will
be by Thomas Moran and J. D. Woodward.
The Christmas issue for 1874 will contain
special designs appropriate to the season.
by our best artists, and will surpass in at
fractions any of it's predecessors.

Government Loan to Southern States.
cincinnati Commercial, 6th.1
The cotton tax refunding job is los
ing some strength because of scheme
which is being quietly worked up to
secure for the Southern States financial
aid in the shape of a loan from the
Government. The plan is somewhat
similar to that advocated by II. M. L.
Hunter although it is not identical with
it. Considerab1estrengt is said to have
been acquired by it at the expense of
the cotton tax refunding scheme. Who
are at the head of this new and remark
able project does not yet appear, but its
entire extent will doubtless be develop
ed in a short time.
The Sinking of tho virginius.
The Naval Department has concluded
that it will be fine thing to have
court of inquiry into the sinking of the
Virginius and it will be ordered at an
early day. The result may be all that
Secretary Robson hopes, but there are
reasons for believing that the better
policy would be not to talk about the
matter any more than is absolutely nee
essary. Many well informed persons
profess to believe that the sinking OF
the vessel was by order OF the Naval
Department, and the proofs, it is
claimed, are available outside depart
ment when demanded by an investi-
eating committee or court of inquiry.
The following is tho letter of Attor-
ney General Williams. requesting the
withdrawal of his nomination to the
Office Of Chief Justice:
DEPARTMENT OF J UsTIcE,
Washington, Jan. 8, 1874.
TO the President:
my solicitation or any knowledge on
my part that you contemplated such Il
thing, to nominate me for Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of the United
States. Since that time the flood gates
of calumny in all directions have been
opened upon me. My abilities have
been disparaged and my integrity
brought into question, and it seems to
me that a public opinion adverse to my
appointment has been created which
might hereafter embarrass your admin
| istration, and perhaps impair my use
fitness upon the bench. With per-
feet consciousness that I have performed,
with clean hands and an upright pur-
pose, all the duties of the various public
places to which have been called, and
trusting to time and a just public when
better informed for my vindication, I
respectfully ask you to withdraw from
the Senate my nomination for Chief
Justice. L have the honor to be, with
great respect, GEO. II. WILLIAMs.

Gentlemen-I am delighted with the

THoMAs MORAN.
These chron,os are in every sense A1neri-
can. They are by an original American
process, with material of American manu-
facture, from designs of American scenery

this, they will certainly possess an interest
which no foreign production can inspire
and neither are they any the worse if by
reason Of peculiar facilities of production
they cost the publishers but trifie, while
equal in every respect to other chromos
that are sold singly for double the subscrip-
ton price of The Aldine. Persons of taste
will prize these pictures for themselves
not for the price they did or did not cost,

100000 Suit.
A special term of the Court of Com
mon Pleas of Luzerne county COM
menced at Wilkes, Barre Tuesday, be-
fore Judge Harding, to hear the five
ejectment cases Of Derringer VS.. Coke,
which involve the title to coal lands
and other property in Sugar Loaf and
Blackjack townships, worthS2, 900, 900.
The land in question was taken up in
1903, by warrant and survey by Terch
Coke for its timber value alone, as it
was not known as coal land until many
years afterward. Having failed to pay
taxation in 1S18.19, the land was sold
from him by the County Treasurer and
was purchased by the County Com-
missioners. The county held it for six
years, and in 1926 it was bought at
Commissioners sale by II. Derrin-
ger, the inventor OF the well-known
Derringer pistol after his death in
1868, the heirs of the Coke estate claim
ed title to the land, averring that Der
ringer hak not paid taxes on it for 1882
33, and that Judge Coke of Philadelphia,
son of Terch Coke, had bought it at
the County Treasurer's sale in 1884
and entered upon the land and began
improvements. Hence these suits by the
heirs of Henry Derringer. The plain
tiffs are represented by ex-Chi,f JUS
