The Supervisor of Internal Revenue

EMANCIPATION day, commemorative of
the freeing of the slaves in the West
Indies, was celebrated on the 1st inst
by the colored population Of many cities
and towns throughout the country, al
though not SO generally and enthusi-
astlcally as in years past.

nal revenue during the past month at
least 81, 100000 The internal revenue

FRANK WALwoRTH, who was sentenced
to imprisonment for life for the murder
OF his father, at the Sturtevant House, in
New York city, has been pardoned. It

errors action.
The worry of England over the sad
spectacle of eur riots is turned to the
contemplation Of little display of
similar character at home just now. A
mob of 5000 attacked hotel at Grims-
by, a few nights ago, where an unpopu-
lar Member Of Parliament was stop
ping, and tried to burn it. A number
OF persons were injured, and troops
were called out to suppress the disturb
ance.
A WITNESS before the Coroners jury
at Reading, Pa, stated that five cart
loads OF stones were thrown at the
Fourth Pennsylvania Regiment while it
was passing through the deep cut at
that point. These were nearly all

aimed stones was good deal for either
human nature or raw militia nature to
stand, and little wonder the men fired
without orders.
GEN. GARIBALDI would like to settle
the Eastern question in this way "The
Turks at Bagdad; the Russians at Sou
tart; on the Bosphorus, confederation
of all the peoples Of European Turkey,
with Constantinople for the capital; the
Bosphorus and Dardanelles free to
all" This would give the Russians all
of Turkey in Asia south of the Black
sea; retire the Turks to their old capital
of 500 years ago, and still would save
Constantinople from the Russians.
The great civil war continues to rage
in Japan. The imperialist army has
been recruited to about SO, 600 men, and
it is believed that the rebel force is not
weaker in numbers. The rebels, COM
manded by Saigo, have so far had the
advantage of the imperialists. The
Japanese Government has embargoed
all kilograms from the seat of war, and
this is considered, with reason, an indi-
cation that the news is bad. Saigo
seems to be pursuing Fabian policy,
equally harassing and destructive to
his foe. The Mikados affairs are evil
IDENTIFY in a precarious condition, though
the rebels pretend not to be making war
upon him, but upon his advisers.
The Pittsburgh papers which abetted
the strikers and belittled the militia have
been making hero of young railroad
employee named Robert. Almond, who
undertook to run the road in the interest
of the strikers. He did SO for three
days, and it is proudly recorded Of him
that in that time no accident occurred
and no passes were issued without the
young mans countersignature. He is
in his 25th year, tall, slender, inteli-
gent, quick and forcible. With all his
mistakes, he AYERS that he has never
tasted a drop of strong drink. A year
ago he came with aletter of introduction
to Mr. Laying, admitting he had been
wild, but expressing desire to reform
He was placed on the road as brakeman,
and soon attained wonderful influence
among his fellows.
