Justice Paxson, in delivering tho opinion of the Supremo Court yesterday in the case of the Standard Oil Company, relativo to its taxation by the State, involving about three million dollars, said: "It has been contended on behalf of the Commonwealth that a foreign corporation doing business in Pennsylvania and entering the State for that purpose brings its entire capital stock with it. The doctrine is unsound in law. To the extent to which it brings its property it is taxable, aud no further. Tho custom in such cases of assessing pro rata has received tho sanction of our Courts in soveral instances, and the best precedents sustain this position. I concedo the power of the Commonwealth to exclude foreign corporations altogether from her borders, oi she may impose a license so heavy as practically to amount to the same thing. The Commonwealth should havo been satisfied with tho judgment of the court below and confined itself to the taxation of the property situated within the limits of the State." Justice Turnkey dissented, on the ground that all capital stock of a foreign corporation should be taxed- Pittsburg, Nov. 21.—A Philadelphia Press correspondent called to-day at the office of the Kdgar Thompson stoel worki to obtain the views of tho company respecting the telegram fromChicago indicating an early shutting down of Western steel rail mills. The gentleman who was questioned requested that his name should not bo used. When asked as to the probability of a suspension of operators ho said as yet that he had received no intimation of any such move being contemplated and added that it would not bo dono oven if it should be intended until thcro was a conference of the members of tho company. As the movements wero generally inaugurated in New York, aud Mr. Carnegie was not in that city he could give no definite information. "But," said the gentleman, "tho outlook is certainly very blue. Prices are very low, and, really, there are no orders at any price. Since the first of the mouth our output has been reduced to twothirds of our capacity, and it is the samo at ,the Cambria works." LATE NEWS.

With Niudcrmau and tho intorproter, Mr. Melville then proceeded to Usterda. He was anxious to find tho hut in which Errlcksen had died, but after two day* of ineffectual search he was compelled by a storm to return to Kaskarra. When the storm cleared up witnois started Bartlett V/ith his party to Matvai, with instructions to work northward, while witness would work from tho northward to the southward. After several days of travel Mr. Melville found some sticks stuck in tho sand and a Remington rifle fastened to tho sticks. Some distance further he found the dead bodies of Captain De Loug, Dr. Ambler and Ah Sam, the cook, buried in the snow. Captain De Long's arm extended out of tho snow. Just behind De Long were two ice hooks, as though he had tried to throw them afD far us possible upon high ground. A tire had been built at the spot. Ninderman helped Mr. Melville pry up the bodies, which wero frozen in tho snow. Upon rolling tho body of Dr. Ambler ovor, witness found under it the postal which paptain De Long had carried upon his person all through the march. The piBtol hud apparently been held in Dr. Ambler's right hand. Thid led witi.oas to believe that De Long had died before Dr. Ambler, and that the latter had taken the pistol to protect the bodies from any stray fox or wolf, or to shoot any animal that might offer a hope for food. Witness ordered the natives to continue digging in the mow bank. Just before night tho head of on3 man and the feet of anothor were exposed. Soon the men engaged in digging threw out a box pcct Sullivan to cover it on Monday or Tuesday.

From tho Montrose Republican Reported by Carpenter & Boomer, Rooms and 8 Club House, Franklin street, Wllkes-Barre Nov. 28—S:00 p. m. Tho Philadelphia Press under its present managci nent, has, in its peculiarly eccentric way, made soino very earnest and persistant efforts to purify and reform the Republican party of Pennsylvania. We aro constrained to suggest, however,- that, politically, tho Press runs like a vessel without ballast, or like an ongine without a "governor." Just now tho Press is very earnest for peace and harmony in the party and demands " pardon " for all exccpt Cameron and his adherents, who alone are to be driven out, torn up root and branch. For th&m there aro to 1)0 no concilation, no torms of peace. Such a policy as tho Press advocates and pursues would be as certain suicide to the party as. would be the ostracism of the Independents by the Regulars. The Press ought to know, if it does not, that if the Republican party in this State is made such a closo corporation as to afford neither sitting or standing room for those who have been and still are the friends and adherents of Jamos Donald Cameron, it will be doomed to defeat. Drive Cameron and his friends out of the party and there will be as large a. hole in it as if the 43,000 who voted for Stewart deserted in a body. There can be lie a restoration of peaco and harmony in the Republican party of Pennsylvania on a basis sufficiently broad, liberal and just to take in all factions of Republicans—what is nccccssary is a policy that will not drive men out of the party, but make obnoxious methods and bossim impossible in the future. Mayor Fttzgerald expressed indignation yesterday at the statement sent to the Now Turk papers that there was anarchy in Troy. There is no excitement.

That the Japanese are a people of muscular and groat physical endurance is apparent on every hand. The specimens of muscular development shown in the build and structuro of the working classes are evidences of great strength and hardiness. The diet of these men is entirely of vegetables and fish, and they are very economical feeders at that. The quantity of food they require, or, at least, the quantity they eat astonishingly small when compared with the food devoured bv the meat-eaters from the Western world. The amount of manual labor they perform is simply prodigious. The coolie who tifkes the place of, and who does the work for which oxen and horses are utilized elsewhere, is about as strong and can accomplish about as much heavy work as the beasts of burden they take the place of. They are possessed of immense power of limb, being able to pull loads that would be considered as much as any other draft animal could draw.

Justice Paxson, in delivering tho opinion of the Supremo Court yesterday in the case of the Standard Oil Company, relativo to its taxation by the State, involving about three million dollars, said: "It has been contended on behalf of the Commonwealth that a foreign corporation doing business in Pennsylvania and entering the State for that purpose brings its entire capital stock with it. The doctrine is unsound in law. To the extent to which it brings its property it is taxable, aud no further. Tho custom in such cases of assessing pro rata has received tho sanction of our Courts in soveral instances, and the best precedents sustain this position. I concedo the power of the Commonwealth to exclude foreign corporations altogether from her borders, oi she may impose a license so heavy as practically to amount to the same thing. The Commonwealth should havo been satisfied with tho judgment of the court below and confined itself to the taxation of the property situated within the limits of the State." Justice Turnkey dissented, on the ground that all capital stock of a foreign corporation should be taxed- Pittsburg, Nov. 21.—A Philadelphia Press correspondent called to-day at the office of the Kdgar Thompson stoel worki to obtain the views of tho company respecting the telegram fromChicago indicating an early shutting down of Western steel rail mills. The gentleman who was questioned requested that his name should not bo used. When asked as to the probability of a suspension of operators ho said as yet that he had received no intimation of any such move being contemplated and added that it would not bo dono oven if it should be intended until thcro was a conference of the members of tho company. As the movements wero generally inaugurated in New York, aud Mr. Carnegie was not in that city he could give no definite information. "But," said the gentleman, "tho outlook is certainly very blue. Prices are very low, and, really, there are no orders at any price. Since the first of the mouth our output has been reduced to twothirds of our capacity, and it is the samo at ,the Cambria works." LATE NEWS.

With Niudcrmau and tho intorproter, Mr. Melville then proceeded to Usterda. He was anxious to find tho hut in which Errlcksen had died, but after two day* of ineffectual search he was compelled by a storm to return to Kaskarra. When the storm cleared up witnois started Bartlett V/ith his party to Matvai, with instructions to work northward, while witness would work from tho northward to the southward. After several days of travel Mr. Melville found some sticks stuck in tho sand and a Remington rifle fastened to tho sticks. Some distance further he found the dead bodies of Captain De Loug, Dr. Ambler and Ah Sam, the cook, buried in the snow. Captain De Long's arm extended out of tho snow. Just behind De Long were two ice hooks, as though he had tried to throw them afD far us possible upon high ground. A tire had been built at the spot. Ninderman helped Mr. Melville pry up the bodies, which wero frozen in tho snow. Upon rolling tho body of Dr. Ambler ovor, witness found under it the postal which paptain De Long had carried upon his person all through the march. The piBtol hud apparently been held in Dr. Ambler's right hand. Thid led witi.oas to believe that De Long had died before Dr. Ambler, and that the latter had taken the pistol to protect the bodies from any stray fox or wolf, or to shoot any animal that might offer a hope for food. Witness ordered the natives to continue digging in the mow bank. Just before night tho head of on3 man and the feet of anothor were exposed. Soon the men engaged in digging threw out a box pcct Sullivan to cover it on Monday or Tuesday.

From tho Montrose Republican Reported by Carpenter & Boomer, Rooms and 8 Club House, Franklin street, Wllkes-Barre Nov. 28—S:00 p. m. Tho Philadelphia Press under its present managci nent, has, in its peculiarly eccentric way, made soino very earnest and persistant efforts to purify and reform the Republican party of Pennsylvania. We aro constrained to suggest, however,- that, politically, tho Press runs like a vessel without ballast, or like an ongine without a "governor." Just now tho Press is very earnest for peace and harmony in the party and demands " pardon " for all exccpt Cameron and his adherents, who alone are to be driven out, torn up root and branch. For th&m there aro to 1)0 no concilation, no torms of peace. Such a policy as tho Press advocates and pursues would be as certain suicide to the party as. would be the ostracism of the Independents by the Regulars. The Press ought to know, if it does not, that if the Republican party in this State is made such a closo corporation as to afford neither sitting or standing room for those who have been and still are the friends and adherents of Jamos Donald Cameron, it will be doomed to defeat. Drive Cameron and his friends out of the party and there will be as large a. hole in it as if the 43,000 who voted for Stewart deserted in a body. There can be lie a restoration of peaco and harmony in the Republican party of Pennsylvania on a basis sufficiently broad, liberal and just to take in all factions of Republicans—what is nccccssary is a policy that will not drive men out of the party, but make obnoxious methods and bossim impossible in the future. Mayor Fttzgerald expressed indignation yesterday at the statement sent to the Now Turk papers that there was anarchy in Troy. There is no excitement.

That the Japanese are a people of muscular and groat physical endurance is apparent on every hand. The specimens of muscular development shown in the build and structuro of the working classes are evidences of great strength and hardiness. The diet of these men is entirely of vegetables and fish, and they are very economical feeders at that. The quantity of food they require, or, at least, the quantity they eat astonishingly small when compared with the food devoured bv the meat-eaters from the Western world. The amount of manual labor they perform is simply prodigious. The coolie who tifkes the place of, and who does the work for which oxen and horses are utilized elsewhere, is about as strong and can accomplish about as much heavy work as the beasts of burden they take the place of. They are possessed of immense power of limb, being able to pull loads that would be considered as much as any other draft animal could draw.
