THE BULLION TAX PENALTY.

Shortly after the adjournment of the
last Legislature of Nevada. the Bonanza
Companies of Storey county paid the
delinquent taxes on the bullion pro-
duct of their mines. which amounted
10 nearly 100000. The penalty of ten
per cent. and costs of suit, which, &C.
cording to law is added to delinquent
taxes. was not collected. the State Of
fcers agreeing to leave the question of
enforcing its collection to the next
Legislature. This penalty is said to
amount to over 500. 900. aud as the
mining companies are amply able to
pay it. it remains for the Legislature to
say whether or not it shall be collected.
The platforms of both parties are
"mphatically opposed to the repeal or
or modification Of the bullion tax. and
sbe members-elect of the Legislature
sre pledged to that effect. Without
modifying the law the penalty must be
eollected5 yet the opinion that 1t will
not be Is quite general. 1t is almost as
eartain as the meeting of the Legisla-
sdre. that bill will be introduced for
che relief of the bonanzas, and many
well informed persons express the
opinion that it will pass the Legislature.

BUrLER AND KEARNEY.

Ben Butler. late candidate for Gov
ernor of Massachusetts,. writes to T. G.
Gilman of San Francisco, an old friend
of his, relative to his relations with
Kearney. the sand lot agitator. Butler
says he knew nothing of Kearney, and
had no communication with him until
he arrived in Massachusetts,. He be
.lieved he had been elected to the Con-
stitutional Convention. and therefore,
upon the endorsement of the people of
San Francisco. extended him the usual
courtesies when he called upon him.
Butler did not ask him to take part IN
the campaign ia Massachusetts,, and
never met him but three times. Kear.
,,ney addressed the people at his own
ams. at his own pleasure. in his own
way and for his own purposes, and
never under any direction or intima.'
ton of Butler. Since the election it
has been said that Kearney made his
speeches purposely incendiary with the
intention of defeating Butler. who says
that he has no doubt that those intem.
perate speeches lost him great many
votes. That, coupled with the fact that
Kearney. near the end of the campaign
was at home in the Office of the Boston
Herald. Buffers most bitter opponent,
constitute part of the evidence which
seems to point to the conclusion that
kearney. while processing friendship
for Butler. was acting in the interest of
his opponents.
The letter from beginning to end
conveys the idea that Butler was de-
eeived by Kearney. and that the latter,
for pay, played into the hands of
Buffers enemies.

KILLED BY the CARS.
A Three Years Old Child Be-
headed ON the ". d II. Rail-
road.

Invaded ON the v. d II. Rail-
road.
From the Virginia Chronicle.
At a quarter past 2 o'clock this after
noon the local passenger train mo. 81
from Carson ran over child in the gap
near the Merrimac mill, on the Carson
river, killing it Instantly. The train
was coming up at the usual rate. and
entered the gap near the mill, which is
one of the sharpest curves on the road.
At this point an engineer is only able to
see about $50 feet ahead. As the train
rounded the curve the engineer saw
four children playing upon the track.
One was little child OF three years
He blew the whistle. reversed the
engine, and rushed out 10 reach the
cow-catcher. hoping to lift from the
track the youngest child. which had
been deserted by the others as soon as
the engine came IN sight. He was IN.
fortunately too late. and the cruel
wheels passed over the child, severing
the head FROM the body aud cuttiog off
Que of the arms. The train stopped
after moving few yards beyond. The
child proved to be the sou of Samuel
Marchiugtou. man employed at the
Vivian mill.
TERRIBLE SIGHT.
His house was but few rods from the
scene of the accident. aud he ring the
cries of the other children, he came out
with his wife to fad the pet of the
household uaaug'ed aud dead upon the
track. The head was lyiog several feet
from the body and crushed beyond
recognition. Mr. Parker. the engineer,
was as much agitated as TIE parents.
and seemed almost beside himself al he
saw the bloody work his engine had ac.
complished. The mother was frantic
with grief. An inquest will b. held on
the remains.

Comments ON the Message.

The Sun says: In this message
Hayes fails utterly to recognize the
great and pressing questions of the
times, fails to make any new sug2es-
tons worthy of u man of affairs, and
again shows himself to be an incompe
tent as he is a fraudulent President.

truth. non-committal on points 10 ref.

ministration should be emphatic, and

some quarters may pass for suitability.
but will be more generally regarded as
an evidence of weakness.
The Tribune says: 1.-The message is
q plain document, q mere synopsis,
and congratulates the country on the
fem stand the President has tax in
the matter of the Southern outrages.
The Republican party will sustain him
with all its heart and strength"
The Herald says: "rhe message is
moderate even to tameness, more re-
markable for omissions which imply
reconciliation with his political party
than for recommendations looking to
legislative action. Plain and nerveless
as the message is, the President eviuces
good sense and sound discretion both

The story of George Clarke, of 0tsego

has been arrested, charged with compile
ity in the crimes Of a secret association of
Anti-Renters IN the interior of New-York, re-
calls one of the most troubled periods in the
political history Of the Empire State. For
eight years the war between landlords and
tenants went on it led to riots, arson, and
murder; and it eliminated in an open insur-
rectiOn which was only suppressed by mar
tial law. Long after the midnight conspira-
cies and masked raids were crushed out, the
bitter quarrel continued in the courts and in
party politics; and although it is thirty years
since open violence ceased, there can be no
doubt that the influence of the old rebellion is
still felt in the public sentiment Of tine infected
counties. The anti-rent disturbances Of 1889 and
subsequent years originated in certain semi
