The United States revenue officials hav® seized the stock and i liquors of eight prominent firms of Newburg, New York, for violation of the revenue laws. The Massachusetts State constabulary, last week, made a descent on four of the principal gambling saloons of Boston, and nrrested eighty seven persons and seiced the paraphernalia. Butler does not like Dawes* charges of extravagance, and has prepared a defence of the “loyal" party. We wonder what Butler's ideas of cxiravagancc are? The Virginia bill was in the hands of the President, Tuesday, for signature. The new bill unseats but two members of the leg- ■> islature. A bill was introduced in the* Ohio Legislature, by Mr.. Ward, of the reform delegation front Cin cinnati, prohibiting the reading of the Bible, or singing hymns Or psalms in the public school*. The Rhode Island House of Representatives passed a resolu- j tion last week ratifying the sis- ; teenth amendment to the Constitution of tke United States by a vote of fifty-seven to nine. The Senate passed the resolution last January. Corbin has been called to Washington to testify before the gold conspiracy investigation committee. He will, it is said dmy the statements of Fisk, Jr. Os course • when first questioned he had no acquaintance with Fisk, but those checks and letters did the business. Indianapolis was visited with one of the most disastrous conflagrations last week that ever visthat city. Morrison’s Opera House nn<l the adjoining buildings were burned entailing a loss of 8250,000. The building took fire while Gough was lecturing to a large audience, but they escaped without . injury. The Mormons by their discus•ions are raising a considerable breeze in Utah. The conductors of the opposition to Brigham are increasing in power, numbersand influence. They have issued an ? address to the people, that is well calculated to embitter the Ceding already existing. Interesting ceremonies took place, last week, in the Mormon Temple in Brooklyn. Edward A. New, an Elder from Edinburg, was installed with novel and appropri ■te services. The Saints, to the number of one hundred ami forty, indulged in sacred singing, and a few prayer*, and listened to sermon* from their Salt Lake Elders. Polygamy was vigorously defended, and the seurrillous Gentile pres* of New York denounced. A doxology closed the proceeding* A woman in Mansfield. Ohio, sued a sj»|oon keeper for damage done her l>y selling her husband I liquor, an<l got a verdict for $250 '

' Temperance in Jay County. . Bro. Jones fires a very scatter- ■ ing shot at our article upon “Tem- [ perance in Jay comity,” publish!ed some two weeks since. He says: “The ‘boldness’ of Brother Hill in asserting ‘that those who desire a dram can get it in any town in Jay county, in quantities to suit,” is based on either ignorance or experience. Now the editor of the Republican has no actual know! edge that intoxicating liquors of any kind can be got by those who desire it, in quantities to suit, or by the dram. The editor of the Eagle however lets out an important fact, and one which will suggest itself with m'ghty force to the temperate and sober citizens of our county. In other words have we. all unknown to the majority of our people a system of gross intemperance, in direct opposition to law, and the often expressed will of the people ? Will the people of Jay county permit this ae cusation to remain on the records of the newspapers without an inquiry’ or an effort to erase it? For our part we will say that wo do not yet believe such to be the | fact- The drunkenness which ex- ■ ists in our place (and it is not a tithe of that practiced at Decatur.) is not so much the result of illegal \ as legal selling of intoxicating liquors. The Eagle advises us to | make the school boy who had the ‘ delirium tremens, come up and tes- 1 tifv whore he o-ot his wliiskv. 1. \ The aforesaid boy never lived in ! Portland, or anywhere near it. 2. ! What would such testimony be | worth in a decent Court of Justice ? The Eagle seems to think that the temperance cause in Jay county is under the patronage of the Republican party and ‘old women.* While this is in a certain degree ! true, the Republicans have pc-ver monopolized the temperance re j form. Among the lists of earnest and energetic movers on ‘the j march of Paogrcss,’ we see the names of Democrats’ good and | true.’ And on the other hand, Mr. j Templer, whose application for' license has met the brotherly sym- ■ pathy of Bro. Hill, is a ‘Radical.’ | The Eagle has in our opinion, and the opinion of many of the Dem- I ocratie brethen in this county •pitched in,’ with more gusto than the circumstances and the limited information it possesses of tein'perancc in Jay County,’ would permit. Reformation like Charity, should commence at home. Let the ponderous eneigies and weigh- • ty influence of the Eagle be used ; by Bro. Hili in purifying his own I whisky and beer cursed "county.' Os course he has our thanks for I his will meant but unsuccessful ‘ endeavors to help us.” ! Now, Bro. Jones, if you have ; no actual knowledge that intoxi-! , eating liquors can be bought in any i town in Jay county, you are wil(fully ignorant or wilfully blind. Some two years since we had occasion to visit Portland. While there we mingled with the business men and were repeatedly invited to partake of the ardent, which | ; we declined ; this may be hard to ! believe, but is <* trict ly true, and as ' it does not effect the argument we present, whether we drank or not. I the reader will be permitted to de cide for himself. /)f course, ! we expressed surprise'that whisky I could be obtained in Portland, because we knew there were no licensed retailers of the ardent in the place. The reply we received was invariably the same; that there was no trouble about that, accompanied with a significant shrug, and knowing smile. And further, several of these men were of un- i doubted “loyalty,” whose word, I after getting in range of their breath, we had no occasion to doubt, being go strongly impreg | nated with the fumes of alcoho’ j that they were really- offensive. Knowing these facts, and having our “experience'' corroborated by other of our citizens, who have.! I from time to time, visited Jay comity, we had no hesitancy in making the assertions we did, and 4 do not hesitate to again repeat, that, if this illegal traffic in the ardent is “unknown to yon, you are either wilfully ignorant or wilfully blind. Our statements are corroborated by your own columns, which have contained repeated notices of intoxicated persons in Portland. In your article above quoted, yon reject our testimony aryl your pulrlfe statements, made as we have stated. You appear wofullj- ignorant, but we think you are well aware of the facts, and dare not attack this illegal traffic iu alcohol, because it woukl endanger the peace of the “loyal" family. As to the whisky drinking of 1 Portland and Decatur,estimate that

drank publicly and behind the door I in both places, and then distribute it pro-rata among the population, from our short experience there, wc are inclined to think Portland outranks Decatur. If we have expressed any particular sympathy for Mr. Templer, we are quite ignorant of the fact. And we appeal to those who have read both sides ot the subject, as it has been presented, as to whether your sympathy for, and defence of, those engaged in illegally retailing the ardent in Jay county has not ours for Mr. Templer*s application for license. We bad no desire to meddle with temperance in Jay county, and only dropped the hint we did, because we then thought that you were earnestly laboring to prevent the spread of intemperance in your county, whether the dealers were legally or illegally engaged in it, but we have, much to our surprise, been mistaken as to the direction of your efforts, having “gone back" on your own statements, discredited ours, pleaded ignorance and refused to invest!- j gate circumstances, that, if follow- . ed, would have afforded positive traces of the “unknown” traffic in your midst. From these facts, we cannot but conclude that vou will - finallv drift into a defence of the * “unknown” whisky drinking of Portland. The New Apportionment. New England js in trouble again. The estimated change in ■' representation through the next | census will materially reduce her ' power politically. The estimate : under the new census will cause New England to lose six members of Congress, the Middle 1 States seven ; the Western States j : will gain fourteen, and the SouthI ern States four. The- western members desire the ugw apporI tionment to take effect iii time for the next election, the eastern mem- I . 8 1 bers are tryin'g to put it off until j alter the election, and it is likely a lively debate will ensue over it. New England is fast .losing power and influence in the government. ~We rejoice to see it. From beI ginning to end her course has been J marked with extreme selfishness, ! coupled with a determination to j force upon the people of the coun- ' try her own puritanical notions, ■ and those who have refused obedi-1 cnee to her whims have been fol- j lowed with the same zeal that was j manifested in earlier days in burn- j ing witches at Salem. « JtiT To prevent any further trouble, in regard to reconstrucj tion, we would advise Congress to I pass a bill making it a penal of , i fence for persons to vote against a 1 ' Radical candidate in any of those I States and territorial despotisms affected by the re construction acts —Tennessee included. Fisk and Gould at the Capitol. — Washington, Jan. 22—Jay I Gould and James Fisk. Jr., appeared promptly at the eapitol to- j day—the latter in a full velvet suit, and resplendent with diamonds, — to testify before the gold panic investigating committee. They were for some time on the floor of the I house, and were introduced to j members, creating a curions sen ; eation. Their evidence lasted six j or seven hours, but can be boiled down into the following resume: i ORIGIN OF THE GOLD SPECULATION, j The}- were anxious to have the crops of 1869 moved at as high | prices as in 1868. in order to furn- j i>h transportation for the Erie j road, but they saw that this could i not be done without a consequent I ’ reverse in the price of gold. GRANT APPROACHED. Gold being low, they at once ■ sought to ascertain what the financial policy of the administration would be. and to that end broached . the matter first to Gen. Grant, June, 15, when he was on his way to the peace jubilee in Boston . This was at dinner on board of one of bisk's steamers, and it ap- j jicared in the conversation that ! Grant- wasi in favor of an early resumption of specie-payments. He was told that this would bring a crash : that gold was too for good business, even then, and Grant replied! “Gentlemen, well, any way, we might as well prick the bubble.’’ i GRANT WAS AGAIN SOUNDED by the witness at Long Branch,! I»ut did not make any defiinite re- | pljcs on .financial topics. In the L meantime.

I GOULD BECAME ACQUAINTED WITH CORBIN, the president’s brother-in-law, and some plans was developed by which Butterfield was to be made assistant treasurer, which was afterward done. A LETTER TO GRANT. In July, Grant went to Newport, and Gould wrote him a letter, which Fisk carried, arguing against reducing the price of gold, staling that the time was near at hand when the crops of the country would be moved, and that if the administration would not sell gold they (Fisk and Gould) could put .up the price a little. No reply was made to this, and CORBIN was brought into their confidence. Corbin said he could fix things all right with Grant. Feeling assured of this $2,500,000 in gold was bought. $500,000 for Mrs. Grant, $500,000 for Porter, secretary to the president. The rest was divided betwean Corbin and Jay Gould, for up to this time Fisk had not bought any gold. AN HONEST PENNY FOR MRS GRANT. Gould, at this stage, introduced Fisk to Corbin, and the letter said that Mrs. Grant's gold had been sold, and a profit of $25,000 had ! been remitted to her at Washing i ton- Corbin explained to Fisk all his arrangements with Gould, and said that be (Corbin) was behind the throne; that he could regulate Grant; that the government would not sell gold; that Mrs. Grant's letter to Mrs. Corbin #aid so, and that there need be no uneasiness Fisk says that at first he was not disposed to believe Corbin, but the latter’s points were so positive that he placed full faith in him. Corbin's letter to grant. To make assurance doubly sure, before more purchases were made, Corbin said he would write to Grant, who was then (Sept. 15) at Washington, Penn., and send the letter by Fisk's confidential man. This was done. The messenger, Chapin by name, reached > Washington, near Petersburg, at j 7 a. m , routed up Grant, and handed him the* letter. He read part of it, went into another room, and in fifteen minutes returned and said “All right.” Chapin went at once to the nearest telegraph office, and telegraphed to Fisk : “Letterdelivered. Grant says it is all right.” Fisk said that on the day before the dark Friday he saw Corbin, who said “All is now right. That letter to Grant has clinched mat ters.” HEAVY PURCHASE* OF GOLD. Fisk and Gould then commenced to bi]” gold, and it rose from 137 to 141, and opened at 141 on the dark Friday. A broker named ; William Belden asked to partiei- ' pate in the transaction, and gave ! Fisk power to buy gold for him. ; One Albert Speyer* was Belden's I broker. On these purchases gold | rose to 143, and Speyer* then jumped in for himself, and bought till it rose to IGO, believing that it would go higher. THE ORDER TO SELL. Then came the order of the government to sell 84,000,000, ■ which immediately smashed down I the market. “That.” said Fisk, “is the story of the combination. Relying on Coibin's statements of hi* influence with Grant, and that letter, we bought heavily, believing the government would not sell gold.” WHAT FISK SAID TO CORBIN. Fisk says he sought Corbin, after the bottom was knocked out of the speculation by the government i sale, and testifies that he said to him : “You d—d old villain, this is a h—l of a muss you have got us into !” Corbin inquired: “What situation are you in ?” Fisk replied : We do not know. We can't tell In all thie excitement, but we may i be ruined.” Corbin blarfdly replied that it must be a mistake; his information was explicit that Boutwell would ’ not sell gold, and if he had, he had ' doubtless done so without coni suiting Grant. MRS. CORBIN came into the room, and said she ■ agreed with her husband. She said she had a letter from Mrs. i Grant, wishing the speculation «as over, for it made her husband nervous. Both of them agreed to go at once to Washington, to see the president, as they said, and have the sale of gold withdrawn, but they never did this. GEN. BUTTERFIELD IN THE RING. Gould testified that Gen. Butterfield, the assistant treasurer, was privy to the speculation, and that he had bought $4,000,000 of gold on Bntterficld’s account. * A DEMAND FOR LIGHT. Fisk chncliuled his evidence by asking that Corbin. Mrs. Corbin, ‘and Mrs. Grant bcsuininoncd be- > fore the committee.A crusty old bachelor *ays he l thinks it is woman, and not her wrongs that ought to be redressed

i An Interesting History Coming. I r • A Washington correspondent says that Jtidge Jerky Blkck, who was Mr. Buchanan's Attorney General, and, Secretary of State after General Cass’ resignation of that office, is prcpaiing a state tneht, which will be made public in a few days, giving a history of what occurred from November to the 4th of March, preceding Mr. Lincoln's inauguration, concern ing the action of the Adminis'trS?' tiori in its endeavors to reinforce Fort Sumter, and the disposition which he and the late Edwin M. Stanton maintained regarding that matter. He will make known a portion of the secret history of that period, which will throw light upon the strange action of'~certain gentlemen who held Cabinet positions under that Administration. Girls Should Learn to Keep House. Young people can not realize the importance of a thorough knowlege of housewifery; but those who have suffered the inconvenience and mortification of ignorance. can well appreciate it. Children shuld be early Indulged in their disposition to bake and experiment in various ways. It is often but a troublesome help that ' they afford; still it is a great ad I vantage to them. I know a little 1 girl who at nine years old made a i loaf of bread every week during; the Winter Her mother taught ' her how much yeast, salt and flour I to use, and she became an expert I baker. Whenever she is disposed ; to try her skill in making simple cakes or pies, she is per- I initted to do so- She is thus while i amusing herself, learning an important lesson. Her mother calls her little housekeeper, and often permits her to get what is necessa ry for the table. She hangs the keys by her side and very musical is the jingling to her ears. I think before she is out of her teens, upon which she has not yet entered, 1 that she will have some idea how to 1 cook. Economy, taste, skill in cooking, and neatness of the kitchen, have a great deal to do in making life happy and prosperous. The charm of good housekeeping is in order, economy and taste displayed in attention to little things; and these things have a wonderful influence. A dirty kitchen and bad cooking have driven many a one from home to seek comfort and happiness somewhere else. None of our excellent girls are fit to be married until they are thoroughly educated in the deep and profound I mysteiies of the kitchen. — Presby- ' terian. '• ; I A Splendid Chance.
