The Government's income. Wsbington special, Feb. 10. Now that there is so much talk about overplus of receipts from taxation, it may lie interesting to know j ust where this money comes from, and what articles pay the greatest amount of tax that is beingrjooured into the public treasury. The sources of revenue, as everybody knows, are the taxes levied upon certain articles brought into the country, known as cust oms, or tariff duties. About onethirdof the total receipts of the government are from internal revenue. This is collected from the tax of 90 cents per gallon on distilled spirits, the tax on fermented liquors, and the tax on tobacco. In the last fiscal year, taxes paid on distilled spirits amounted to $70,000,000, on fermented liquors $20,000,000, and on
tr,hflHiS2S.O0O.00O. The remainder of
the government's receipts,the other twothirds, was from customs duties, more
Tv-mnlariv known as the tann. xnis is
rK ..... - collected from a large number of sources,
a duty being laid on nunureas, yes thousands, of articles imported. Of all
the articles paying customs duties sugar
uavsvbv far the largest sum . The duties
paidipon sugar brought into this coun
try last year was over $50,000,000. No other single article approaches this in toe-amount of duty which it pays. Iron,
Tftrhans. comes next to it. The'tarlfF re-
. K. - . . -. ceipts on the manufactures of iron and
steel amount to fourteen or fifteen
million dollars a year. On manufactui es of silks the tariff paid isabout$14,000,000 a year, and on manufactures of cotton
about $12,000,000. In spite of the feet
that we make a tremendous quantity of
intaricants in this country, the tariff
paid on distilled spirits is about 3,000,-
000 a year and wines about $4,000,000,
while on tobacco, manufactured and unmanufactured, the customs duties
amount to nearly $9,000,000 a year. Raw
i wool pays over $5,000,000 per annum of
customs duties; fruits and nuts, nearly
$4,000,000; manufactures of flax, $7,500,-
000; chemicals and medicines, $4,000,000;
glass and glassware, $4,000,000; leather, $3,000,000; jewelry and precious stones,
$1,100,000; while for the hats with which
the ladies obstruct the view of the opera
they pay a customs tax of oyer $1",000,000
and for taxes on their corsets t nearly
i $500,000 more. ? " , Sam Jones Say ings.

Many preachers say that a man is not religious because he has no morals, nsensie! One man gets religion and he jumps up and shouts the praises of God.

Rev. Dr. Talmage preached at the Brooklyn Tabernacle last Sunday from the text Jeremiah xii.. 5. Subject,
"The Swelling of Jordan." He said: I propose, if God will help me, in a very practical way to ask if it is such a difficult thing to get. along without the religion of Jesus Christ when things arc comparatively smooth, what will we do without Christ amid the overpowering misfortunes and disasters of life that may come upon us? If troubles, slow as footmen, surpass us, what will we do when they take the feet of horses? and if now in our lifetime we are . beaten back and submerged of sorrows because we have not the religion of Jesus to comfort us, what will we do when we stand in death, and we feel all around about us "the swelling of Jordan?" The
fact that you have come here, my brother, my sister, shows that you have some things you believe in common with my
self, iou beheve that there is a God. There is not an atheist in all this house. I do not believe that there ever was a real atheist in all the world. Napoleon was on a ship's deck bound for Egypt. It was a bright, starry night, and as ht paced the deck, thinking of the great affairs of the State and of battle, he heard two men on the deck in conversation about God; one saying , there was a God and the other saying there was none. Napoleon stopped and looked up at the starry heavens, and then he turned to these men in conversation and said: "Gentlemen, 1 heard one of you say there is no God; if there is no God, will you please tell me who made all

it now; for the shining heavens declare
the glory of God and the earth shows

great many of you will say that you.be-
leve it is important to have the religion
of Jesus Christ every day of our lives to
sinootn our tempers ana nuriiv our
minds, and hold us imperturable amid
ail the annoyance and vexations of life.
iou and i nave seen so. many men
trampled down bv misfortunes because
they had no faith in Jesus, and you say
to vourself: Il thev were so easilv
overcome by the trials of life, what will it be when greater misfortunes come
upon them heartbreaking calamities,
tremendous griefs?" ,hl if we have no God to comfort us when our fortune
goes, and we look upon the grave of our
children, and our houses are desolate,
what will become ot us? What a sad
thing it is to see m en all unhelped . of
God going out to tight giants of trouble;
no closet of praver m which to retreat.
no promise or mercy to soothe the soul,
no rock of refuge in which to hide from
the blast.
We have all vielded to temptation.
We have been surprised afterward that
so small an inducement could nave
decoyed us from the right. How insig
nificant a temptation has sometimes
captured our soul! And if that is so,my
dear Drotner, wnat win it oe when we
come to stand m the presence of temp
tation tnat prostrated a uaviu. and a
Moses, and a Peter, and some of the
mightiest men in all God's kingdom?
jnow, we are none3t; out suppose we
were placed in some patn ot nte, as
many of God's children have been,
where all the forces of earth and hell
combine to capture the soul? Without Jesus we would go down under it. If
already we have been beaten by insig
nificant footmen we would be distanced
ten-thousand leagues by the horses. Ah,
I don't like to hear a man say: "1 could not commit such a sin as that. I
can't understand how a man could be
carried away like that.". You don't
know what you could do if the grace of
Gcd lets you. You know what John
Bunyan said when he saw a man stag
gering along the street, thoroughly lm-
bruted in his habits. He said: "There
goes John Bunyan but for the grace of
God." I can say when I see one utterly fallen: "There goes DeWitt Talraage but for . the grace of God." If we have
been delivered from temptation it is be
cause the strong arm ot the Lord Almighty has been about us, and not be
cause we were any better than they.
It is a great folly to borrow trouble.
If we can meet the misfortunes of to
day, we will be able to meet the troubles
of to-morrow; but suppose now if
through a lack of the religion of Jesus
we are overthrown, by small sorrows,
does not our common sense teacn us that we can not stand up against great
ones If we can not carrv a pound, can
we carry a thousand pounds? If we are discomfitted coming into battle with one regiment, a brigade will cut us to pieces. If we are unfit to cone with one
small trial, won't we be overcome by
greater ones? If the footmen are too much for us, won't the odds be more fearful
against us when we contend with horses? I thank God that some of his dear chil
dren have been delivered, ..
But my text suggests something in advance of any thing I have said. We must all quit this life. However sound our health may be, it must break down; however our title may be to houses,land and estates, we must, surrender them. We will hear a voice bidding us away. From all these places. Wo will have to start on a pilgrimmage from which we can never come back. We Will have fteen for the last time the evening star, and watched tba last summer cloud, and felt the breath of the spring wind for the last time. Hands of loved ones may be stretched, out to hold .us baclf, bat they can not go we mu3t. About all other exits and changes we may trifle, but not about thjs. Stupendous 'moment of lifH-fjuitting!

do in the agonies of dissolution Oh, I rejoice to know that so many of God's children have gone through that pass without a shudder! Some one said to a dying Christian: "Isn't it hard for yon to get out of this world?" "Oh, no," he says, "it is easy dying, it is Messed dying, it is glorious dying;" and then he pointed to a clock on the wall, and said: "The last two hours in which I have been dying, I have had more joy than all the years of. my life." A General came into the hospital after the battle, and there were many seriously wounded, and there was one man dying, and the General said: "Ah, my dear fellow, you seem very much wounded. I am afraid vou are not going to get well." "No,"
said the soldier, "I am not going to get .well, but I feel very happy." Oh, I have seen them, and so have you, go out of this life without a tear on theircheek! There was weeping all round the room, but no weeping in the bed; the cheeks were dry. They were not thrown down into darkness; they were lifted up. We saw the tides rising around them, and the swelling of the wave. It washed them off from the cares and toils of life;
it washed them toward the beach of

Whv was there, ears ago, so much
iov in certain circles in New York when
people heard from their friends who
wp.rft on board the Citv of Brussels? It
was thought that vessel had gone to the
bottom of the sea; and when, the friends
on this side heard that the steamer had
n.rrivd as fid v in Livernool. had we not
v A .
the right to congratulate the people, in
New York that .1 heir lnends nad got
safely across?' And is it not right this
morning. that I congratulate you that your departed friends are safe on the shore of heaven? Would you have them
back again? y ould you have those old
parents back again? You know how hard it was sometimes for them to get their
breath in the stifled atmosphere of the
summer; would you'have them back in
this summei? Didn't they use their brain long enough? "Would you have
your children back again? Would you
have them take the risK ot temptations
which throng every human pathway? Would you have them cross the Jordan three times in addition to crossing it al
ready, and cross it again to greet you
now, and then cross back atterward, tor certainly you would not want to keep them forever out of heaven. If they
had lived forty or fifty years longer,
would they have been safe? Perhaps so,
perhaps not.
I ask a question, and, there seems to
come back the answer in heavenly echo:
"What! will you never be sick again? "Never sick again." "What! will you never be tired again?" "Never tired again!" "What! will you never weep
again." "is ever weep again." "Wnat will you never die again?" "Never die
again." Oh, ye army of departed kin
dred, we hail you from bank to bank!
Wait tor us when the Jordan of death
shall part for us. Come down and. meet
us halt way between the wulowea banks of earth and the palm groves of heaven.
But there is one step still in advance
suggested by this subject. If this reli
gion of Christ is so important in life and
so important in the last hours of life,
how much more important it. will be in the great eternity! 1 need not stand here
and argue it. There is some thing with
in your soulthat says now,whi e I speak: 4,I am immortal. The stars shall die, but I am immortal." . You feel that your existence on earth is only a small piece of your being. If I could come into your heart this moment I would see that many of you, my dear friends, had vowed to be the Lord's. I know not what sickness it was, or what trial; but I verily believe there is not a man in the house but that has some time vowed he, would be the Lord's. It might have been at the time when your child lay sick you said: "0, if Thou wilt let this child get well I will be a Christian." Or it might have been is some business trouble, when you have said: "O Lord, if Thou wilt let me keep my property I will be a Christian." You kept your property, your child got well, the peril passed Are you a Christian? History says that long ago it had been announced that the world was coming to an end, and there was great excitement in London, It was said that the world would perish on a certain Friday. On Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the people were in the cathedral, praying and weeping. It seemed as if the whole English nation wras being converted to God, for it was announced as certain by philosophers that on that

Indianapolis, Feb. 25 There was a crowd around the doors of the Senate yesterday long before the time of opening, bui the door-keepers were inexorable in reiusing admission to all outsiders except a favored few. Those who were so fortunate as to get in, however, were witnesses to a scene of t ur
bulence and excitement probablv un
paralleled hi the history of Indiana Legislatures. There are three doors to the Senate chamber, and two of these were cleared except to the Democratic Senators. Around the middle door, which
was used for general admission, there was such a crowd that even those who were allowed to enter had geat trouble in getting in. Among these were a number of the Republican Senators who became very angry because they were compelled to almost fight their way in while the gentlemen on tho other side of the Senate had no such trouble. This precipitated the trouble, and had it not been for the favoritism it would probably have not occurred. It was shortly before the titne of call
ing order when there was a pounding on one of the doors, and a prolonged racket. It wTas made by Senator Macy
trvimr to sret to his seat. and. when
did filially manage to get by the doorkeepers, he denounced them in a very vigorous manner. With him came Colonel Robertson, who didn't pay much attention t o those who tried to stop him, further than to make some spirited observations. He came in, took oil his overcoat and hat and sat down. Senator DeMotte had been struggling in the crowd around the door for nearly an hour, and when he finally got his foot in he shoved on through, pushing doorkeepers aside, exclaiming, "Let me in, you have no right to stop me." There was no disguising the fact that he was mad. and around him soon gathered quite an excited crowd of Republicans and Democrats alike. Senator Johnson announced it as his positive opinion that tho door-keepers were a lot of -'damned buliiesand cowards' Senator McDonald, of Whitley; Senator Howard,
of Decatur, Senator Cox and others were in the crowd, and in a moment there was the greatest confusion, loud talking, pushing and profanity. In the midst of

were then taken up and acted upon, in second reading, committee reports, etc., but only the Democrats - voted, and on each roll-call the Repub
licans were recorded as present but not voting. Eventually Senator French offered a resolution, which was adopted, that the Senators who are present to-morrow be not excused irooi voting, and he read a , section of the statute providing for a fine of $1,000 for members of the Legislature who willfully obstruct i legislation or refuse to vote when not excused. This move apparently had no effect, however, and then the Democrats beean calling up important measures, such as the loan bill, the bill for supporting the insane hospitals, etc., and getting votes on them, but still the Republicans, refused to respond.
Senator Harrett made a report from the
prison committee recommending the removal of the directors ot the Southern prison, and this was concurred in, the
Democrats alone voting. Routine business continued until after 12:30 o'clock, when a motion was adopted that, when the Senate adjourn, it be to meet tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. Motions to adjourn were defeated, and President Smith intimated that the session would continue, up to 6 o'clock. He also announced that the House had refused to receive a message from the Senate, and asked for a resolution for the records of the Senate to show this fact. When Colonel Robertson wa? ejected from the Senate chamber he was er?et

Police Officers Haley and Davis were in the crowd, not on duty, Superintendent Colbert says, but out of mee curiosity, and their presence infuriated the crowd and they were driven out and back. When one of the breaks was made to get in, Mr. Kercheval, who was right at the head of the procession at all stages, was stopped by Doorkeeper Pritchett, and he proceeded to abuse the latter
rather roughly, greatly to the delight of the crowd, who. howled and cheered until they were hoarse. If Mr. Kercheval had received backing there is no doubt that he would have been right in the middle of the senate chamber in a very few seconds. Two or three of the door-keepers were all "mussed up" in the various rushes., but nobody was hurt. . ... During the racket, outside the senate chamber the wildest uproar resulted. Hundreds of persons men who had been denied admission to the senate had collected about the center door. As the sounds of the encounter within dis-

K .Bulger, of Wells county, and assistant door-keeper stopped him,and they had a alight tussle, and, as two or three" other door-keepers came up, Colonel Robertson, seeing that a further effort in his direction was useless, changed his tactics. His fane was as white as marble and he had a determined look when he walked to the Clerk's desk, directly under the President, and he began speaking in a clear and distinct voice. He said: I have been excluded from the position to which the people have elected me, and I wish to make a statement of my position, I wish to make a. formal demand " Senator Bailey I arise to a point of order. This person is not a member of this Senate, and has no right to speak here. The Chair The point of order is well taken. The door-keeper will remove the gentleman if he persists in speaking. Colonel Robertson (continuing) I am here to make this demand. I "am unarmed-President SmithSo are we all, but

Oh, we may be smart with our witticism about the last hour; but when it cornea, and the tides are rising, and the surf us is beating, aud the winds are howling, we will each ona, my brethren, nd for himself that it Is "the swelling of Jordan."

Oh, , if in the bright sunshine of health and prosperity a man felt the need of something fretter, how
how often J have seen men start for the. Senator Bailey This is not the place
for this man to test his alleged rights. While this colloquy was going on Senator DeMotte tried to speak, and was ordered to take his seat. He refused to doit. Said President Smith: "The door-keeper will put Senalor DoMotte in his seat, and if he don't obey he will put him out of the Senate." This brought every Republican in the Senate to hi feet, protesting against what they designated as "an outrage and an infamy." Senator Campbell called tho President's attention to the fact that he had no right to exclude the members from the Senate. "We won't stand this," came up from the Republican side. "This is entirely to much." There was much excitement, in the midst o which Senator Huston, wras recognised and began to explain Colonel Robertson's position. Senator Howard objected a ad he desisted. While all this was going on Doorkeeper Pritchett and Senator DeMotte were having a vehement quarrel, and as the latter refused to take his seat, Pritchetj; sjioved him down ino it, with such violence as' to bf&ik the chair and throw him on the floor. The Republi cans and Democrats all buried over to
this p.jrt of the phamber, and for a time thejre wasdapger o a general fight', but some of the cooler-head' id members managed to allay the trouble. Pritchett was called fill sorts of things, and denounced' in unmeasured terms. Finally something like order was again restored, and Colonel Robertson, who had been standing by the clerk's desk all the. time, again began speaking, President Smith I direct tie doorkeeper lo remove this man from the floor of the fenateand keep him out. enatoj- Cfpibbejl The Senate ajoue cap do that;.'

At Oil City there are two natural gas
companies drawing their supply from tho same district the Oil City Fuel
Supply Company and the Manufacturers
Gas Company. X)ver $1,000,000 have
been invested in the plants. The two companies have drilled ahout thirty
wells. When one well plavs out, as it
is hound to do in time, another one is drilled and the supplv kept np. It is
not possible to determine the life of any
on or gas wen. The oia JNewton gas
well near Titusville, produced in enor
mous quantities for five years, yielding
enough to have supplied the entire City of Ciucinnati during that time, and the
supply is not yet exhausted, although it is nearly so. This well was struck fifteen years ago. The big teas well at
Fairview b lowed away for four years, wasting a fortune every month. Some of the original wells in the Itf urrvsvttle or Pittsburg district are atill yielding in large quantities. The pressure of gas escaping from the Pennsylvania wells ranges from 100 to 500 pounds to the square inch. Some wells fire said to
have a pressure of 1 ,000 pounds to the square inch.

The Westeru hosiery mills, at Connersville, which have been idle since the strike of tbe female employes last fall, were sued on Thursday on notes aggregating nearly $80,000, with other outstanding indebtedness. The mills will
go into the hands of the sheriff. The protracted meetings at Martinsville are still in progress at the M. E. and Christian Churches. The M. E. Church has had 175 additions, more than

has had some thirty additions.
Early Sunday morning Solomon Hampton, a well-known blacksmith, was found lying near the Presbyterian church in Wabash, in a dying condition,
from exposure in the terrible blizzard. His extremities were froaen, and his body presented a frightful appearance. He had been on a spree and went to bed in the street. Notwithstanding the severe cold wind, and, at times, , driving snow, an immense h rong assembled, on the banks of Hart's pond, near the center of Greensburg, Sunday noon, to witness the baptism of a number of the converts of the Wood worth revival for the last three weeks. Although about one hundred have banded themselves together as the . "Church of God," but ten had faith sufficient tp
be immersed. These were equally divided between the soxes, one being an old gray -haired man ami one a negio girl. .; . . .. Patents were issued to the following Indianians Tuesday: John C.

Goyernor-elect Robertson from

functions of pre&iding officer,is reversed, ..-vi.; The Court concurs unanimously in the i view that there is rid jurisdiction over the person of the Lieutenant-Governot; 5,
three Judges held that the General Assembly alone, and not the ('onrt, -has jurisdiction; and Judges Mvchell and
Howk held that there is no vacancy in the Lieuten ant-Governorship, and that the Court has jarisdictthe subje matter.. . ? ". . : ". 5 In effect, therefore, 4he court Ihrows the entire matter back into the hands of the Legislature. Colonel Rolertson will claim the Lieutenant GoyerDorship and
Mr. Smith will resist until the assembly

LEGIS1L-ATI VE NOTES. The Republican State officers Thursday afternoon in cacus agreed upon the selection of the following police commissioners for Indianapolis:' . John B. Elam, Colonel ..N. R. Ruckle Republicans, and William Henderson, Democrat. The Republicans at once called on the Governor and named the above
't op.nt,lftmn. 'Th'Av wpta ttprAimrvfi
sleeted. f The Barrett and Sellers bill for the reorganization of the State prisons and benevolent institutions will undoubtedly pass the Senate, but not the House in its present shape. The Republicans say that if the Democrats will concede an
amendment to make the proposed
boards non-pEirtisan, even by making
each composed of two Democrats an
one Republican, they will support both
measures, and let them become laws;
The Senate committee on the affairs of
the Northern p rison have made a lengthy
report, which is altogether favorable to
that institution. It finds that the sani
tary condition is good, the cell houses
are well heated and ventilated, and that
each prisoner is supplied with every
thing that is necessary to his comfort. The highest commendation is passed upon the hospita I and library. They find further, that the. supplies are purchased in large quantities and at wholesale rates, thus making a saving of 15 to 20 per cent; to the State. Tlie financial system of the prison is complete and accurate. Up to Feb. 16, 1887, all bijis against the prison had been paid and there was on hand $1,139.73, after hayin,, pendetl $76,000 , ftaw buildings
and improYemepts,. Tpjm cash w4 b(mk accpnts of the warden were examined
and fou?id to he porrect, Te gpneral fund of the State treasury
is at length drawn as dry as powder horn.
The State officers held a conference
Tuesday forenoon and concluded that it would be a reasonable precaution to take
from the fund enough money to pay the inteyegt on the State bonds falling due April L .There will be no further ret
ceipts for the benefit of this fV&A before the payment becquAea ce9sarv. It
was therefore prdeyed pftid in advance.
