the House lo the re-election of 1<\ J.
Moses, Sr., a? chief justice. Judge
Moses' aeqnicsence in tin* decision of
the cast of Morton, Bliss ?fc Co., lias
caused a distrust in liitn, and has no
doubt rendered him unpopular with
the Legislature. Judge Maekey is
spoken of as a candidate for the position,
and his chances of election,
should he consent to run, is very
good.
Washington Ztcms.
The following hills were introduced
in Congress on the 4th: Bill to
repeal the bankrupt law; hill to re1
peal the iron-clad oath; hill to proprovide
for the payment of half the
revenue tarill' in legal tenders; hill to
remove all the foui teenlli amendment
disabilities; hill to provide for the
recognition of the lights of beligereney
for the Cubans.
John J. Patterson.
i ne u ashington Star says that
it is rutijoied that ?a movcnifnt is on
foot to oust Senator Patterson from
his seat. The New York Snn thinks
that Mr. Patterson shouhi go to keep
company with Win. M. Tweed ami
Ingersoll. In the investigation ol
Patterson's case, it is to be Imped
that the Democrats in the Legislatare
who voted for him, will he enabled
to prove themselves clear of
receiving any bribe from him.
The Cuban War.
It appears from the latest dispatches
from Washington, that the qnes
tions in controversy between the
Spanish Government and the United
States are not satisfactorily settled
yet. Tlie feeling in Cuba is so aveise
to delivering up the Virginias, that
the Captain-General has resigned,
and requested the appointment of a
successor who can carry out the orders
of the government to deliver up
tl.? \ *

Bays:
The delay in tho delivery of the
Vii^inifiK nci'.nitiiiii? muoli
inent, hut this is not believed to he
the fault of the Madrid government.
The embarrassments surrounding the
matter nro appreciated, and, there"
fore, without any formal prolongation
of the time, the administration
will wait until the delivery can he
effected in a way that will give the
Jeast offence to Spanish pride. It is
believed, from what lias been privately
said in oflicial quarters, that it was
not agreed to between Secretary
Fish and Admiral Polo that the Virginius
should be surrendered at
Havana, but that vessel should he
taken from that harbor and conveyed I
beyond its jurisdiction and then de? I
livercd to such United States vessel |
as might be sent to receive her. It
is considered that this course would
give less occasion for offense than il 1
one or more of our ships should go I
directy to Havana for that purpose. ;
Our government leaves to Spain the f
fulfillment of its obligation, hut if
this should prove impracticable the
facts will he reported to Congress (
for its action. *

Peacc-Officor3 and Their Duties.
When I came to this village about
a year ago, street rows and disturbances
were of frequent occurrence.
Through the columns of the Lkimjkp.
I asked the peace-officers of this
place to aid me in keeping peace and
order. I also favored the election of
a Town Council, hoping that they
would, at least, aid mo in this branch
of my official duties. They passed
certain ordinances, which they have
enforced only to a very limited extent.
The filing of firearms, within
the incorporation, was prohibited ;
but I have never heard of that oidi*
nance being carried out. On yesterday,
a man shot a dog tn the street ;
some of the Council were m view of
the transaction : Trial Justice officers
wore near the scene; but not a warrant
was issued?not a Town Constable
appeared to arrest the violator.
Any individual bad the right to take
out a warrant ; but not a thing was
done. 1 >111 soon, I learned that it
was said, that "the Sheriff ought to
have arrested that fellow and I am
not certain out some of the Council
(whose duty it was to have the perpetrator
arrested) indulged in these
remarks.
I have never failed to promptly
put a stop to parties fighting or
quarreling in my presence, and make
arrests when necessary. This I expect
to continue to do without re
gard to who the offenders may be;
hut any person wishing me to arrest
a party for shooting a dog in the
street, must first put a warrant into
my hands. Let them first take the
small responsibility ol taking out a
niiiinnl, any | it IP Oil tail ?lo,)
and if it is put into my hand" the arrest
will be made, if the offender
does not keep out of the way.

Tax Titlos?An Important Decision.
In the rcent term of couit held at
Wultorboro' a case involving the validity
of tax titles was tried before .Judge M??
Iter. A plantation in St. Paul's, belonging
to the plaintiff, was sold last year :
for non payment of taxes, and bought
by the defendant. The plaintiff claimed
that the law had not been complied with
n that the boundaries were n<?f corrccty
given in the advertisement. Judge
Matter, in h:s charge to the jury, fully
mstained the tux law, but charged that
,hc effect of it being to deprive persons
>f their properly for less than a fair conlideration,
it was necessary that persons
laiming under tax titles should he rcpiired
to show that the law had been
itrictly complied with. If the giving
if the wrong boundaries was calculated
n the opinion of the jury to mislead
mrties interested, and lead them to suprose
that the property advertised was
lot theirs, then the plaintiff was entitled

For the Lancaster Ledger. a
Reply to "Sbiloh and Tirzab.*' /
Mit. Editor: For a man, or any '
body of men, to be misrepresented
and silently allow It to pass, would 1
appear as consenting to the charge*. j
For one man, (or had it been done
by the whole body of Shiloh ami 1
Tiraah, which is not the ease,) to
j make such statements through the 1
public press regardless of the action |
of the whole Presbytery, composed
of scune sixteen ministers and an 1
equal number of Elders, it does appear
to us that there is some neces- '
sity for a reply,
"Slnloh and Tirzah" says: "since .
"the freedom of the press, kept with- '
"in proper bounds, is proteeted by J
"law. for the nuhl ioiit ion of onrieiil.
~ I
"faetslor the information ol the peo?
"ple, t urely the Hist Prcsbytery ought
"not to object to have their official
"acts fairly net before the people."? j
Although this may hu lawful, yet,
whfit thinking tnlinl will consider it
expedient for thus to be pounding in
| the ears of the public, church mat*
tcrs?sacred things. It is after much
| deliberation that we have concluded
to reply to "Shiloh and Tirzah" be?
cause of its unseemliness. We candidly
admit that, if we did not con*
sidcr such writings derogatory tolf
theinlerist of truth, and thus injurious
to the furtherance of the (Jos- j
pel of Christ, we would have l?y* ,
no means noticed it. For these rea* 1
sons, one who was an eve witness of
i I
nearly all the transactions ol Pres*
J by tery, at W innshoro' feels it to ire '
' his duty to speak.
We will not follow "Shiloh and '
Tirzah" in all his various w indings,
but will uiciely state facta.
During the late war, some dissat- '
isfnetiun sprung up between some of |
the members ol Shiloh and the Pas*
tor, and if I am not mistaken, the
I pastor applied to Presbytery to be
j released from Ins chargo at Shiloh,
I and as far as 1 am aware none of
j this congregation objected to it.?
| We are all aware Presbytery bv ! !
! no means willing to release a pastor | J
I <?f Ins charge unless satisfied thatj,
i there is cause sufficient. They there* j
: fore tet about and a reconciliation I .
was made between pastor ami flock. I
j Not long after this some other <1 if- !
ference arose. In this last instance
there were about twenty families,,
j making about fifty members. The 1
! dissatisfaction grew to such an ex-J'
j tent, that this body held a meeting 1 1
: and appointed a delegation to wait ('
I on Hie pastor, nnd ask mm to with* ['
draw from Shiloli ; otherwise that |
j he be released by Presbytery from i
, this charge. This body was compo* j
scd of some five Klders, and w as |
otherwise the strongest pillar in the
church. This last request was not j '
complied with, or eouscntcd to by ! '
the pastor. Notice, here is the cm- |,
ical point, fifty members, strong pi I- j,
lars of the church, whose feelings , <
were wrought up so far that they 1
felt they could not longer worship''
God truly and sincerely under the:
then ministration. Under such eir !|
cumstances what steps should be ta- '
ken? The dissatisfied members, or I
a portion ol tbein, were just on the '
eve of going over to the Presbyterians,
but alter further deliberation, j
they determined to lay their ease!,
before Preshyleiy, and abide the de? i
cision thereof.
Karnest preparations were made j j
on both sides, the other part of Shi- j
1..I i t; i ? ?
IWM (HIM I II/.AII ? III- Mil A l? !!? mill lilt* |
pastor ho retained. On the other i
hand the filly member* desired Pre*- j
hytery to relense him. Piesbytcry |i
met at Wiunsboro, hoth parties ho- i
ill); fairly represented. "Shilo'.i and , "
Tirzah" says, that "ho was removed j f
"hy the first Presbytery from one of | 1
"his ehnrges against his, and their (
"consent, witliont judicial invention* ?
"lion or conviction of crime, was an t
"act too nnehrisliiin to be endured." l'
The facts were laid before a special **
commilteo, (there was no charges ! v
brought against either party, hut the j r
object was, which parly should hold f
the church,) who spent hours ol invesication,
and in making their i M
report to Presbytery asked his re- j
lease. Presbytery demanded a full c
statement from the chairman of the J
committee. There being somethings .
that would havu been luiprildent to ?
have stated in public, it was deemed J
necessary, and they went into secret ti
session. Tlda explains the writer's '
assertion when he says "finally with
"closed doors they ended their trial ?
"ol the innocent pastor.'*
The. investigation of this nuilter
consumed, all told, between 15 and
20 hours, after whioh Presbytery
without scarcely a dissenting voice, <
voted his release. Does this look '
like "without judicial investigation."
No d'>uht, "Shiloh and Tir/.ah" t
feels very much grieved. We see
him at one time repeating the sad ,
exclamation ol Job, "miserable com' I
| fort era arc ye all." Again he lifts
| hi* voice with the words of Cicero,
*
i
Vnd this not sufficient to whow forth
iIh full grief, he tells us that "llisto- |
y infotiiis its that the grent Caesar
ndtired a more of wounds from his
inenriea, but one stroke only from
iih lriend ffcuuis was sufficient 'to
>vci come him." And our only wonler
is that he did not go further and
'X claim, hue me in inerttin ! Wo j

water Kweetened with sugar; then, after
ahout fifteen minutes, begin to give
about a tablespoon ful of the same mixture
every few minuted until relief was
obtained. Apply hot applications to
the extremities. 1 lathe the stomach
with the I'ain-Klllcr, clear, and rub
the limits briskly. Of those who had
the Cholera, and took the medicine
faithfully, and in the way staled above,
eight out of ten reeovered.

Dkah i-ttts: During a long residence
in China, I have used you I valuable
Rain-Killer, both in my own family
and among tliet 'hinese.and have fouiiil
it a most excellent medicine. In the

certain cure for cholera, irimed in time.
Indeed, using it in ft greet many instances,
J do not remember failing in a
single ea-o. For three years I have
Ikm-ii residing in this place, more than
fifty miles front a physician, and have
been obliged otlen to tall upon my own
resources in cases of sickness. The
Cliinese come to us in great nit ft) Item
for medicine and advice. Though with- ^
out medical knowledge ourselves, the
few simple remedies we can eommnuil
art' so much in advance even of their
physicians, that we have almost daily
applications. We allow them to come,
Itectuise it brings us in contact with
them nod opens a door uf usefulness.
In diarrhea, colic, vomiting, cholera,
coughs, etc., your I'ain Killer has been
my chief medicine. Your*, very truly,

Those using I ?nin- Killer should strictly
observe the following directions:
At the ruinnieiiociiieiit of the disease
take a teaspootifitl of Vain-Killer, in
sugar ami water, arid then bathe freely
across the stomach and how els wiili
the Vain-Killer clear. Should the diarrhea
and cramp continue, repeat the
dose every fifteen minutes. In this
way thedreadful scourge may lie chocked
and the patient relieved in the
course of a few hours.
N. 1$.? lie sure and get the genuine
article; audit is recommended liy those
who have used the Vain-Killer for tins
