CUARLES The Chivage Tribune, Tuesdny Morning, Juno 10, 1873, A bill for tho botter Government of Ircland, has boon introduced into the British Parlisment by Enrl Russell, who proposes that the Lord Lioutonantoy bo aboliebed ; and that tho Jury low bo 80 smondod that o vordict may bo so- ourod by tho concurrenco of cight out of twelvo jurors. A Faymers' Board of Trade has boon formed by tho furmers of DuPage, Kondall, and Kane Counties, Tho farmers will moot on fixed days of tho week in their hall at West Aurors, and soll thoir produce with all tho advantages of competition with ocach othor and botweon tho buyors, ng is done by tho dmrymen of Elgio, who havo tried the plan of an Exchango for a year with good result The English Governmont hos a small wor on hand with the Ashantecs, growing out of the transfer of tho Proviuco of Elmim by the Dutch to tho English. Tho King of Ashantoo has ob- jeotod to the tranefor, and is bound to try con- olusions with the English to soo if ho cannot got it himsolf. ‘TPho Englisb, in tho moeantimo, havo vory shrewdly secured tho Fuutis, a vory strong tribe, 08 allles, and will lot thom do tho most of tho gghting. Tho Polaris survivors ‘havo boon eecrotly ox- amined by Secretary- Roboson, as to the cause of @apt. Hall's denth, and the failuro of tho expe~ fition. Nothing is offloially disclosed of tho ro- sultaof the investigation, but ithas * loaked " out that it shows Oapt. Buddington, who was placed In 80 unfavorsble o light by Esquimaux Joe's story, to bo gulity, at tho loast, of having do- Liberately doserted tho Tyeon party. Ho is sald, whilo intoxicated, to have driven them at the peril of their lives off tho ship to the lec-floo, ‘whero ho loft thom with a seanty supply of pro- vigions to tako their chancos of rescuo or death. [ ——————" Annoxation schomes sbound. Washington afiicluls are now ecager for tho absorption of Oautomala into the Union, and no lcss than two Gautemalans have waited upon the Prosident, to assure him of tho yoarniug of their follow- countrymon to bo annexed. Anothor annexation project is proposed, as o preventive for ony trouble betwoen this country and Moxico over puch tranegresstons of the boundary lino ss Mackenzie's recont Indian raid, What aro known a8 the Moxican fronticr Statos, are to bo transforred to our dominion, In this way tho boundary lino would bo shortenod, tho debatablo land whero thoIndisn marsuders tako refugo would be wholly undor our sovercignty, and with the cousideration which Moxico would ro- ceivo for the cession of the torritory she would bo able to pay her debts, Even Capt. Jack hos never done ‘anything moro dastardly than the massacro of five Modoo captives at Lost River by the Oregon volunteers on Bunday. Boventaen of tho sixty-threo Cottonwood Modocs, who surrondored a fow days ago near Fairchild's ranch, wore on their way to Gon. Davis' camp under the escort of ono of tho Fairchilds, and were intor-. copted by eomo Orogon voluntoers, Wwho delib- orately shot overy male of the party. Nothing but the unexpected arrival of 3 detachmont of troops scems to havo pre- vonted tho murder of tho twelve women and childron. Nono of the Indians wero armed, snd the affaiy was simply & butchory not less strocious than the assassination of Gen. Canby. Among the vietims woro Shacknasty Jim and Bogus Charloy, and it ls said that nono of thom wore under any indictments for murder, and that thoy had not participated in any of the troachories of tho band. ¥ Tho Agricultural Congress which rocontly as- sombled at Indianapolis, whilo it rocommendod and urged somo very important measures with roforonco to increascd facilities of transporta- tion, i8 more noticablo for what it failed to do than for what it renlly” adcomplished. The Davonport Gazelte ~ romarks that whilo it gave its nttontion to numerous canal schomes, ospeclally of those in tho South, which will cost hundreds of millions of dollars to conmstruct, while their. uso is problomatical, 1t failed ontirely to racognizo tho fmportance of tho ship canal ui tho mouth of tho Missiesippi, which ean bo constructod for tho comparatively small sum of §6,000,000. No man who has examined this question doubts the absolute nocessity of this great improvomont, and its vital im- portanca to the intorosts of the producors of tho Missiusippl Valley and its tributaries. That the. Convontion should have iguored it ontiroly is incomprehiensiblo. The Chicngo produco markets wore steadier yestordny, with a fuir business. DMoss pork was quiot aud 100 por brl highor, cloning at $16.70@ 15.75 oash, and $16.85@16.00 scllor July.

Congross from tho Stato of Minnesotn, has publisliod & lottor in which ho justified his voto ifcroasing his galary to 7,600 por annum, nnd dofonding such incroaso ao on not of Justico. Mr. Averill 18 ono of thoso mombora who hiastenod to draw tho back pay, assuming that tho popular protost ngainst tho action would soon be forgotton. The storm of lndignation has, however, in no wigo abated, and DMr. Avorlll now scoke to aivert ita forco from limsol? . by somo most oxtraordinary statomonts. Ilo claima “thnt tho incroase from §5,000 to 87,600 18 not in fact an inoronse of 82,500, becanse tho sllowance for mileago and sthtionery has beon sboligliod, which itoms, in tho case of Minnesotn membors, amount to $1,000 & yoar, and bogauso of tho ropoal of tho franking priviloge, which, ho snys, will subjoot him toan annual oxponso of €500 to ©1,000 for postage on correspondenco snd on tons of documents which ho will dis- tributo. Thie ia nob only spoclal but vory potty ploading. Congross votod tho inerenso of §2,660 toall thumembers alike, loss tho milengo and atationory. Tha allowanco for stationery was 2100 a year, and * that for milongo was according to diatance, If Br. Averill rosided ot a grontor distanco from the Onpital than tho aversgo mom- bors, that wae his misfortuno; but whon ho voted to pny himeelf something oxtra, ho also voted to poy tho Increase to tho groat body of tho mem- bora whose mileagewas of inconsiderabloamount. If ho voted for this incronse, ns he says he dld, bocauso Lo thought ho was ontitled to it, thon ho went into tho combination to plunder tho Tronsury, recolving for his vote much loss in tho distribution than othors. In extenuating tho gullt of perebna committing robbory, the fact that ono rescived less of the plunder -than the othors does not mitigato tho offense. The tur- pltudo fain tho act of robbery, and mot the amount taken, Dut Mr, Averlll la oxcossivaly liboral in hia eatimato of what ho hae oxchanged forthoadvance pay: Mileage,$1,000, and postago 21,000, mako £2,000 a year; his back pay was $2,600; netxecoipts by lum for two yoars 1,000, or an annual increaso of only 8500per year. Lot us stato tho caso difforently: Under:tho law he would have received for two years' salary, 810,000 ; mileage and stationory, €2,000; post- sgo, 83,000; total, 914,000 Ho voted to increaso _tho enlary for the past two yoors, ond, according to lig own catimate, re- coived: Balary, §15,000 ; postage, $2,000; total, $17,000, or 98,500 & year. When L vatod bim- solf tho increaso of back ealary, ho did not re- quire that ho ehotild pay for tho 82,000 worth of freo postage which ho had eujoyed ; but adding that to his other recoipts, his net incronso, ac- cording to his own flgures, wore 2,500 o year, which is tho largest statoment of tho oxtent of the robbery which wo have yet scom. Mr. Averill caunot oscapo tho altornative prosented by lis own figures.. 1¢ tho loss of the franking privilego Is equal to $1,000 s year, thon its pos- acasion must have boen worth that sum; and es 1o did not rofand tho postage when he taol the incronso of ealary, ho must admit ho voted Dhimeolf on sunual not Increase of 2,600 (sfler . deducting s mileage), or that his clnim that tho loss of his franking privilege will involve him in any unu- eual expenditure for postage, Is & gross oxagger- ation. Ail porsons writing to Mr., Averill, here- after, will have to pay thoir own postage, and, of courso, like all othor persons writing on their own business, will inclose stamps for retwrn lottar, 'Tha tons of dooumants which 3r. Averill oxpocts to pay the postage on will not oxist,— ono purpose of repealing tho franking priviloga baing to gat rid of that busincss. Ioroaftor, all persone needing documents will haye to remit the postage for thom. Mr. Averill doclares that, if the act incroasing tho pay of mombors of Cougrees had stood .| alone, it would have passed, which statement is probably untrue to the oxtent that, hnd it not boen iiicluded 1n an approprintion bill, it would not have rocelved one-half the votes that passed it, Mombers of Congress knew it was a fraud and o robbery, and thoy would mnot allaw tho proposition to come to a vote as an in- dopondent measuro. Mr. Averill bogs the question whon he declares that it is ' universslly conceded, in view of tho largely-incronsed cost of living at Washington," that justice demandod that tho valarics of mom- Dbors of Congress should be incronsed, and thore- foro there is no complalnt against tho increaso made in tho pay of members of tho next Congress, The talk about tho increnso in the cost of living at Washington is all nonsouso. Mr. Avorill can live at Washington for ae little monoy as ho can ot 8t Paul, if ho wants to do so, But thore aro in Congross o large number of woalthy mon, who have cstab- lished residences thore, and who expend annually fivo to ten timea tho smount of their salary in tho expeneo of thelr households, Any mombor of Congress who attompts to imitato that stylo o”{vlng con do #o, 80 long 88 his money lasts. Membors of Congross aro uot clectad to ropro- sont thoir conatituents in tho sooial, but in tho political, circles of Washington ; they do not sond ‘mon thero expocting them to entor into o social rivalry with foreign Miniators, wealthy capital- ista, or with the lobbylats, whose catablishments ave tho most oxponsive of all, They do not ox- pect their reprosentativos to lvo any moro ox- ponsively at Waghington than they do &t homo, and thoy have tho right to domaud that repre- sontatives who tako their familios to tho Capital and cpter into tho fashionablo and oxtrava- gont lavishnoss of social lite will do a4 thoy would have to do at home, pay tho ox- penaca out of their own pockets. ‘Thero aro mombera of Congress whoso exponsoa at Wash- ington do niot oxcood an aversge of 1,200 o yoar; and if mombora will dance, dino, wino, and entertaln largo assemblios, and will nook in dross and othor obarges to imitate their moro weelthy associates, lot thom do so at thelr own and not at the publio oxpeise, Tho salary of wmombers of Congresa was but £8,000 and milo- ago up until 1805-', and tho cost’ of living was a8 high then as 1t {s now. b - Mr, Avorill rofuses to recoguize any difforence in tho morality of the last Cougrous inoreasing the pay of the noxt succeoding Gungrens,'-nd voting at the closo of thelr own torm s rotro- active increase of their own pay. In BMlr. | Averill's gage $hero waa but Litlo difforence,— ho voting in both Instancon to increaso his own pay after he had boon oclected to nerve at anothor ntated' salary. Arg«xlng that ae it was propor to incronso the ealary of tho coming Congrees, ho aska whoreforo waa It wrong to in- croaso tholr own pay, Thly. loglo lrresistibly domands why Mr, Averill, ln voling limsolf £0,000 oxtra back pay, did not vote thosamo bnek pay to his prodocossors as far baok a8 1860, ond oven furthor, ‘Why mot linve voied tho samo bnok pay to tho widows nnd orphane of all the mombora who have died slace 1860 7 And onco startod on tho retroactive opera- tion, why limit it to two yoars, or flvo yoars, or any othor numbor of yoars ? Is Mr. Avorilla botter roprosontative than lis predocensors ? And if Lio considored himself cntitled to onter the ‘Troasury and tako 95,000 extra pay for past sorvicos, why did ho clogo the door to othors who hnd ne honost and as just a claim as ho had? Thoro is no disguising tho fact that tho salary grab of tho Jast Congress was without oxcoption tho most impudent raid ovor made upon tho Pub- Mo Troasury. It is so xecognized tho conntry ovor, and Mr. Averill will find whon the timo comos that no sophistry or- oquivocation can blind tho judgment of tho peoploe to tho enor- mity of tho act, nor to tho faithlessncss and offrontory of thoso who have pocketod tho mill- {on and a quarter of stolon monoy. THE BEER QUESTION. The addross dolivored ot tho Browers' Con- grosa at Olovoland by Mr. Louis Schado, setting forth somo intorosting facts concerning tho mauufacturo sud consumption of lagor-boor, i likely to draw additional attontion to tho prac tico, slroady quito genornl smong the intelligent peoplo of this country, of making o distinction botwoon malt drinks and aleoholic liquors. This distinction obtaing almokt universally in Eu- ropoan countries. Evon in England, whero the habit of taking atrong drink provails more largo- ly than on the Continont, it ia customary to in- cludo o daily allowanco of beer in the ¢ompen- sntion of sorvants and Iaborers. In. Gormany tho boverage is wnational, ‘and tho Govorn- mont has froquently had to contend with * popular uprisings whon it . has tampored with the exciso dutios, just as it woula inour tho indignntion of the peoplo by legisla- tion caloulated to incrense the price of broad. Evorgwhero in Europe thero ls, and has boen for o vory long timo, a strong disposition to en- courago tho manufacture and consumption of beor nd'an agont of tomporance among tho peo- plo. Tho loading chemists of Europo, including tho Iate Daron Licbig, have taken an active in-* tercst-in Imiproving ite nutritious olements and proserving the purity of its manufacture. The statistics which Mr. Schade prosented at Olovoland show that beor Is likely to scouro as strong a foothold in this country as in Gormany. Thero is renson to hope that this condition will ‘bo attonded by oqually good results, and that thore will bo as small a proportion of drunlken- ness among tho American people as n wholo 16 thoro {5 among tho Gormens oither at homo or in this country. Mr. Behado tells us that tho consumption of boeor in the North German Con- fedoration in 1809 was 21,28 querts por head, and tho tax was 8.02 conts per head. Tho con- sumption of beor in this country in 1872 wag 25.47 quarts, and tho tax 21 conta per head.” It is probablo that tho increase of consumption in Gormany during tho past three yéara will bavoe madoe tho consumption in Nérth Gormony lest yoor somehat groater than in this country, but tho tax in this country is vory much largor and the revenue proportionately groator. Tho brew- ing interest iu the United Btates is represonted ny twico a8 large s that of the distillorios, Tho broworles and malt-houses aro worth $56,- 796,683; thoy pay $7,469,226 annually, in wages ; thoir matorials cost 337,180,778 a yoar, and thoro {8 an annual produot of §67,723,168. The browors employ 14,038 hands, and tho Gov- ormmont onjoys o yoarly rovenue of botween cight and nino millions of dollara from ‘tho manufacture of beor. On moral grounds, the amount of rovonuo which the Govornment re- coivos, tho numbor of men who find omploy- ment, and tho consumption of home products et good pricos, cannot justify the encourago- ment of an industry that is huftful to tho mor- als of tho people; but if, as many thinking peo- plo aro'coming to holiove, the more general in- troduction of beer.is caleulatod to improve tho habits of the poople by rondoring-the practico of drinking nlcoholic liquors lesscommon, then these clrcumstances bocomo an important stimulaut for tho encouragemont of tho manufacture. On tho other hand, tho temporauce, or rathor tho -total-abstinenco, poople can nover hopo to achieve tholr univorsal reform unloss thoy begin at the manufacture and prohibit it altogothor. Whenever thoy shall undortake to do this, thoy will be mot by tho producers of tho ‘matorials consumed in such large quantitios, by the largo numbors who find employment dircotly and in- Qirectly in" their manufacture, and by all thoso who favor tho policy of mnking tho so-called |- Iuzurios of life, a8 distinguished from the necos- sarios of life, pay tho bullt of taxetion. On this vory ground, tho probibitory law of Massn- “chueotts i4 now; condemnod by the farmors and dairymen, who helped to pass it, becauso thoy find that thelr business is suffering from the do- cline of tho browing businoss.” Mr. Schado also gives an gstimnte of what im- migration has done to Ameries, which is val- uablo in teaching tho importanco of concossions to the socinl and Sunday customs of thoso who como from other countries. The population of tho Unitod Btates in 1700 was 8,231,930, Mr. Behado estimates that, i tho incronse from im- migration had boon cut'off, and thoe incrensoe had only beon from the surplus of birtha over deaths, the population in tho United Btatos in 1870 would have beon only 0,450,836 lnstond of 84,- 125,000, which was tho actual white population according to tho last census, According to this statemont, which allows o moro liberal increaso from births than in the most pros- porous and progressive nations of Europe, 24,450,835 of the people inbabiting the United Btatos are omigrants and tho descondants of om- igrfanta, Of theso, tho Qormans, French, and Beandinavians, and porlaps o portion of the Irish, not o far removed from forelgn ancesiry ay to hove abandoned the customs of thoir fore- fathors, are of o difforont way of thinking in rogard to dvinking boer and keoping Sunday from that clags of porsopa who nre called Purl- tons by Mr. chado in tho presont controvorsy. 1t I, thereforo, fair to conslder in how far the emigration from Europoan countries hus beon onconraged by tho idos of the fullest personal liborty in this country, and how much the doc- trines of probibition anda strictly roligious ob- sorvanco of Bunday would affect omigration in tho futuro, it thoy woro adaopted gonorally, or tho growth of . partioular citjos pud localltion whero theso doctrinos should be applied. All thoso things sre of oonsequenco in the conslderation of tho boor nud the Buuday quos- tlonn, which aro just now attractipg considerable sttontion, not only in Olicago, but throughout tho country, * Amidng tho notablo inataudos of tho disposition to rogard boor o8 .ocoupying o distinet placo from aleohollodrinks, fny bo clted Gov, Dix's voto of tho' Looal-Option Liil in Now York, beeause it fallod to rocogrizo thls' dis- tinction, nnd tho failurc of the bill to rocoive as largo a voto aftor tho voto as it did beforo. Tho Nation, too, in n rocont articlo on tha subjoct, inaiBts that this distinotion should Liavo s practi- cal recognition by making taxation and reatric- tlona on tho manufaoturo and salo of boor light- or than thosein tho caso of sloohollo drinks. A vory sorious diffronco of opinion oxlatd smong the Now York papers with roforonco to ho honithinoss of that city. Whilo' tho World fa Iaboring daily by atatistics, descriptiona of lo- calitios, and plotorinl illuatrations of the worat places, to prove that New York is tho filthieat placo on the globo, and 2, doomod to_bo visited by opldomics of all sorta this summer, tho. New York Times progonts an array of comparativo figures going to show that tho clty la ono of tho henlthieat intho world, snd that thero isnorenson why strangors shonld not go thore with perfect impunity. During tho month of Mny, last yoar, tho numbor of donths in tho clty was 2,959, whilo inMay of this yoar it was 2,300, which shows that tho city is at loast no moro dangerous than at former poriods. Tho Times follows this up with p.comprohensive statoment of tho mortality of forty-throo of tho leading citios of the werld, ‘which we roproduce for the sako of its valuo aa s reforonco. Tho figires indleato thio numbor of donths to onch thousand of tho popula- tion, and aro as follows: San Franeisco, 17; Bt. Louis, 20; Oincinnati, 20 ;" Balti- more, 25; Philadelphia, 20; Obleago, 27; Brooklyn, 28; Doston, 80; Now Orloans, 80; Halifax, 81; Now York, 82; S8avannab, 80; Blon. tronl, 87; Momphis, 40 Valparaiso (Chili), G- Turning to Europe, the rato is na follows: Zurich, 18; Genova, 10; Basle, 20; London, 21; Paris, 21; Livorpool, 27; Loods, 27; Glas- gow, 28; Manchoster, 28; Dublin, 20; Loghorn, 90; Venico, 50; Milan, 80; Vienus, 81; Gouos, 81; Btackholm, 81; Nico, 81; Havro, 81; Rot- tordam, 81; BDorlin, 83; Bolognas, 82; Naples, 84; Floronco, 355 Romo, 86 ; Praguo, 41; Munich, 41; ond Cadiz, 44. Tho Times furthormoro claimé that the high rate in New York is partiaily duo to doaths in the publio hospitals, prisons, and asylums, which aro tho receptacles of tho pauperism and disenso of tho 01d World, and that, deducting theso, tho donth- rato would bo roduced to sbout 20 per 1,000, which compates favorably with all the lending citlos oxcept London and Parls, Tho Times maintains that tho ity was nover in bottor con- dition ; tho World muintains that it was nover ‘In worso: The Z'imes olaims that it'is not filthy ot all; tho World claims that it s the filthicst clty in the world. Whore ‘doctors disagros, who alinll decide # . 3 Thoro secrns to be a vory just appreciation outeide of this Btato of tho sorious mistake which the farmors of tho Fifth Ju- diclal District - have made in defoating Judge Lawrence.and eolecting n. man in his placo upon the undorstanding that he will declare the law to be, not what it is, but what they, for the timo being, concoivo that it ought tobo. The evil tondencios of such nction can- not fail to command attontion whorever tha ‘bias which is reaponsiblo for it docs not oxist, ‘The Now York T'ribune juetly speaks of it ns “a grave misfortune, of which the farmors thom- selves will probably be tho first to foel tho effects.” It points out 'tho real dangors whon it adds: - “In - fino, - the farmers aro spoiling. their own ecampaign. If thoy can elect o Judgo pledged m ad- vanco to overturn a docision which they do not like, they may bo assured that tho ail- 'way companies will try the samo experimont. ‘What it menna to havo a railrond Judgo on tho Bonch wo know to our cost in Now York; and e gsn promise our frionds in Illinojs that thoy will ind such s man very different from tho able and incorruptible Ohief Justico whom they have just got rid of." Thoy have blindly rushed in botween two dangerous consts. On the ono, sido, thoy havo jeopardized their cause by giv- ing out that thoy propose to overthrow monopoly, not according to law by which it may bo defent- ed, but by a subversion of tho law,—a polioy _which, if continued, will allenate all sohor, thinking pooplo from them. On tho other sido, thoy have commonced & gamo "(tlmt of electing Judges to servo clase-intorests) at which two can play, and it is & game in which the railronds are likoly to hinvo tho best of it. e Tho Caxlists of Spaln havo a horo whose ex- ploits are more remarkable than thoso of Don Carlos. Hois a soldier-pricst, named Manuol Banta Oruz, and he was formerly tho oura of Iemialde, Holas young man, horn in 1812, aund was ordsinod . a priost in 1866.

Tho Emporor was informed that the proposition camo too late, and was forcod to submit to tho torme whicl' Prussia saw fit to dictato, Tho assumption that this experionco taught Austria to mako Hungary a part of the Imporial domin- fon, with a full share of oqual rights, is woll foundod, and it io probablo that tbo Rrosout -lot the prospority of the Austrinn Kingdom may bo tracod dircotly to tho strongth added by Hun- gar|au thiift and rosourcen, Tho' situation haa ohangod indood whon the rofugeo of '40 holds tho flgn_‘tlplgmu in the nation, . ¥ Tho recent slatoment of Prosldent Ellot, of Harvard Colloge, made to the Soclal Solenco As- soclatfon of Boston, that tho cooducation of tho soxes I8 now on tho wano In the West, cspoclally ot Oborlin Collego, whero it commenced, hna brought out a lettor “from President Fair- child,.of Oberlin, fnwhioh ho corrects Presidont Eliot's statomont as far an tho succoss of tho schomo at Oborlin is concornod.
