The commissioner OF internal evenue
has compromised nineteen important tobacco
cases in surry county, North Carolina, in
which the parties offending the revenue laws
were arrested several months ago. The
cases have been pending in the courts, and

guilty to violation Of the revenue laws, and
sentence will be suspended during good be-
havior. If the law is violated, sentence shall be

Gen. Martidale, Gov. Frederick Smyth, New
York; Judge II. L. Bond, Maryland: Hon.
Lewis B. Gnnckel, Ohio; Gen. j. s. Negley,

At Central branch, Dayton, Ohio, 1923; at the
Northwestern branch, 1907; at the Eastern
branch, Augusta, Name, 1925, and at Southern
branch, Hampton, Va, 95s, being over l.0OO
more thad during the year 1876. Total aver
age cost of keeping each man during the year
was 1925, being $40 less than Of the year 1876,
and saving to the government of nearly
100000. There has been decided improve
ment in the conduct and morals of the men

less than ever before. It appeared that more
than six thousand OF the men did not during
the entire year commit single offense, or
violate single rule or regulation at the
homes. The board authorized improvements

efficiency Of the homes, and after making the
necessary appropriations and doing much
other routine business, adjourned to hold its

The 1sussia-Turkish Treaty OF Peace.
A Vienna correspondent summarizes
the official text Of the treaty of peace. The
treaty is substantially the same as already
teleg:aphed. The territory cedcd to Montene.
gro is, however, twice as large as Montenegrins
could have claimed on the basis of the posi-
bilities. This decision of territory is principal
ly to the northeast, Servia beiug considerably
increased on the southwest, the Turks to gain
access to Bosnia and Herzegovina without en-
tering Servia or Montenegro, but must cross
the Montrogona mountains. The frontier of
Bulgaria extends further west than was. at
first stated, the new boundary being formed by
river Struma approaching within few miles
OF Salonica. Russia, however, has made con-
cession that in one year after the in PRODUCTION
of the new regime in Bulgaria, the Porte,
Russia and European cabinets may agree to
associate the special delegates with the Rus
sian commissioner, who is charged with re-
organization OF the province after the treaty
concludes. After exchange of ratifcations a
place and time will be agreed upon providing
this act with solemn forms usual with treaties
OF peace, but the contracting parties are FORM
ally bound from the moment of the ratincati n.
The correspondent remarks that thus far. Al.
though the cooperation OF powers is not dis.
tinctly mentioned as necessary to make peace
definitive, still admission is indirectly made
that something more is required.

criminal court contained in George Wells

port contains certificates from the clerk of the
United States circuit court and Wm. Grant,
special United States attorney in the cases
against W. r. Whitaker, which show that
the three charges against Whitaker for en-
bezzlement were disposed Of, one by acquittal

Attempt to Remove Solah Chamberla LAIN
m Referee.

08 1te10Fecs
Judge Larremere in the New York
court Of common pleas has given his decision
upon the application of Francis G. Saltenstall,
Of Chicago, for the removal of Selah tham-
berlain as receiver of Warren Z. Greenleaf,
surviving partner of the firm Of Greenleaf,
Norris & Co. Judge Larremere says as an
officer Of the court, Chamberlain is control-
ed and restricted by the courts order and
amenable to its direction, and he cannot
legally dispose of the trust property except
by general sanction. No act of his was shown
that was subversive of his trust, or that tended
to violation Of official duty. Saltenstall, as
mere creditor, should not be permitted to
vacate the judgment, without showing fraud
or collision in its recovery. A creditor can
in no case be appointed as receiver of debt
or's property. The appointment as such was
not necessarily improper and invalid, and all
authorities led. to the conclusion that re-
ceivcr appointed by court of competent jur-
isdiction and in the exercise of it's discretion,
should not be removed by any judge of the
same, court except for valid cause. Judge
Larrimere says. however, his conviction is
clear that as a nonresident or temporary
resident of the State, Chamberlain would be
disqualified. AS the question Of residence was
one of doubt he directs the referee to take
proofs and report to the court with his opin-
ion. For the present he dismissed the appli-
cation.

An important contribution to the
secret history of the Presidential sup
Elemental campaign is made by the
publication of the following telegram
to Mr.. Tilden, sent from New Orleans
dated November IA, 1876, and signed
dy Randall, Lamar, Watterson and
Ottsndorfer: CATER full survey of
the situation here, we urgently rec
ommend that you make at once to
Governor Hayes the proposition hith-
erto communicated to you" This
"proposition" was undoubtedly the
suggestion, publicly, though briefly
discussed in the press at the time,
that Mr.. Tilden and Mr.. Hayes both
withdraw and join in requesting Con-
gress to provide for a new election.
Mr.. Hewitt, in a published letter,
while he denies having advocated
this plan, also says that it was often
discussed, and was regarded favora-
bly, by Democrats as well as Republi-
cans. Such proposition, emanating
from such source, is pretty conclu-
sive evidence that the Democratic
managers considered as early as No.
Vember l4th, that the regular election
of Mr.. Tilden through the constitu-
tional machinery of an Electoral
College, and his peaceful inaugura-
tion, was hopeless.

The special agent of the govern
ment whose report from the Texan
frontier has appeared In the journals
of the past few days, whether or not
unprejudiced, throw out some hints
that are worthy of notice. He gives
it as his official opinion that the diff
culties along the border, are due in a
great measure to the high tariffs
maintained by both countries-tLat
the constant source of irritation
comes from the disposition to disre-
gard the revenue laws, and the efforts
of the United States to enforce these
laws upon a people along the line,
who look upon smuggling as legit-
innate business. BE urges with some
force the establishment of a recipro-
city treaty between the two coun-
tries, as means of preventing much
of the trouble of that quarter.

Gen. Grant is looming up as prob
able Republican candidate for the
Presidency in 1880. Mr.. Hendricks
three weeks ago declared him to be
the most probable opponent of De
mOcracy; Postmaster Key in Chi
cago week before last declared that
the whole negro vote would be as
sured to him; last week Mr.. Conkling
in published interview pronounced
brief but eloquent eulogium on his
fidelity and moral strength; at Kill
patrick's great eneampment in New
Jersey his name evoked the most
Eociferous cheering; and now Mr..
Curtis, in "Harper's Weekly" gives
dignity and accretion to this sponta-
neous movement, not only by recog-
nizing it as fact, but also by gent
ly insinuating the old anti-Grant
tlecry of military dictatorship"
If Democracy follows Mr.. Hendricks
and Mr.. Tburman's wild lead and
goes over to. Nationlism, Gen. Grant
may very likely become the ralIying
cry of conservatism and order. The
Republican party might go further
and fare much worse. The country
is well over its third term scare; and
there are a considerable number of
voters who would like to max 9 Gen
Grant President again, if it was only
TO show what a Jack-o' lantern scare.

aid, President Hayes said that the
Democrats, by attacking the Nation
al banks, are evading the real issue,
which is whether the currency shall
be redeemable or not. When that is
settled it will be in order, Mr.. Hayes
thinks, to discuss the question OF
whether the paper money shall be
issued by the State banks, National
banks or by the Treasury. Now the
important thing to determine is
whether we shall have specie basis
or not. The President does not
think there will be any parallel
between the result in Ohio and that
in Maine. In the latter State the
greenback question is a comparative
ly new issue, while here it has had
its run already and has no longer the
attraction of a novelty. In the gu
bernstorial campaign of 1875 the
issue between rag-money and sound
money was clearly made, and the
rag-money advocates were beaten
after a thorough canvass of the
State.
