<>rnud Jury Stories.Col. T. W. Knox, :n Scrihner'y for Marth.

has an articli; on the fatuous New Yo.kirand Juiy of which ho was n meral e.'.iVe quote fr;m aivunce ih^et: as follows:

Net many days after WJ were conven-jd, a case that t uchei the heart of everyiut.n in the room was b; oug' t bi fore usA. young Kirl u a d been aecu: ed of theft.

few dollars in money h id been stolen ;t was found in her possession, and shead made partial confession. The com-

plainant was a woman, and tho accusedhad been in her employ. When the easewas called the woman entered the j ury-oom and wag sworn by the foreman. Sheook the chair assigned to" witnesses, audhe foreman questioned her.

" Did you lose some money ? "" Yes, sir."" When did you lose it'/ "" On the first day of December."" Who tool; it P ""The girl named in the complaint.'" How do you know she took it? "" I found it in her possession, and she

oufessed taking it."" Tliat will do ; you can go."But the woman kept her seat, and mov-

d her hands uneasily. " You can go,"aid the foreman npiiu, but she did notitart. A juror sitting near the door roseo show her out, and as he did so the wo-

man said:" I do not wish to press the complaint.want to withdraw it, and nave the girl

eleased."Why so ? " asked the foreman.Because," and her voice began to

hoke, " because the girl 18 young, and Io not wish to ruin her. Somebody ekerged her to steal the money, and I thinkho will do better in future. If I send hi ro prison she may become a professionalhief, but if I give her a chanco she willo a good girl. She is an orphan andas no friends, and I want to oe herrionrt. I know she is guilty, but I want0 be merciful, and I beg you to be mer-iful, gentlemen."Half her utterance was drowned with

ears, which flowed rapidly down her face.The foreman told her to step outside andhe would call her again in a few moments,

ud inform her of the result of her elo-quent appeal. " Be merciful, gentlemen,"vore her last words as she closed the door.

It was voted to dismiss the complaint,,nd when the foreman called her to thoooiii, told her of the result of tho vote;nd commended her for her kindness ofeart, her tears flowed afresh, and shehanked us through broken sobs. I knowhat in that room more eyes than herswere wot—eyi s not accustomed to tears.

But soon a discussion arose as to theropriety of our action. When vhe Grand

Jury w.ts inipunnoled, the following oathwas administered to the foreman:

' You, Lucius S. Comatook, as Foremanof this Grand Inquest, shall diligently I J ™7:nquire and true presentment make, of all i " " u ' " a".v

inch matters and things as shall be givenyou in charge ; the counsel for the peopleof this State, your fellows and your own,/ou shall keep secret; you shall presentno one from envy, hatred or malice ; norshall you leave any one unprescntedthrough fear, favor, affection, or hope ofreward; but you shall present all thingstruly as they come to your knowledge, ac-ording to your understanding : So help

you God!"And to tho other members the follow-

ing oath was administered :'The same oath which your foi'eman

has taken on his part, you, and each ofyou, shall well and truly observe andkeep on your part : So help you God!"

Somo of the jurors thought we had noright, under our oath, to show favor, nomatter how strong might be the appealto our sympathies. Every man in theroom wished to be lenient, but at thesame time, above all other things, wishedto do his duty. Tho discussion resultedin our sending for the District Attorneyand asking his advice.

After hearing the oase, he said thorewas a difference of opinion as to tlxa pow-er of a Grand Jury. " You can undoubt-edly," he continued, "exercise your dis-cretion in certain cases, and act as youthink is for tho best interests of society.It is both right and proper that the GrandJury, and also the District Attorney,should be clothed with a discretionarypower, as it freqiu ntly happens that tin ycan do more gcod by exorcising it thanby following the strict letter of the law,1 will give you an illustration: Someyears ago the case of a young man charg-ed with embezzlement was placed in myhands to prosecute. His employer wasdetermined to push the case ; he was ra-ther ugly about it, and there seemed no

took the money under groat temptation,ami did not realize the enormity of hisoffense until ho had committed it. ' Youcan send ine to tho penitentiary,' ho said,'and nobody can blame you; but you willruin me for life aud bring disgrace uponmy parents and sister, who do not knowthat I am chaiged with crime. If I canbe released and the matter hushed up, Iwill faithfully promiss to do better in fu-ture, and 1 think this will bo a lifo-longlesson to mo.' He pleaded so earnestlythat I promised to do what I could forhim. I sent for his accuser, and urgedhim to withdraw the charge. At first horefused, but I laid the case before him insuch a light that he at last consented.And I then urged him to take the younglimn back and give him a new trial, andalter much talk I succeeded. The com-plaint was withdrawn, the young manwas restored to his position ; in a littletimo his salary was increased ; by and bythe firm dissolved in consequence of thedeath of one of i's members; the youngman went to another house, proved him-self worthy of confidence, and to-day heis a member of that house, and as honora-ble and upright as any . business mini inNew York. He has i.ever forgotten andwill never forget that lesson. If he hadgone to the penitentiary his worst fearswould have been realized. When an of-fender is young, the offense is a first one,and tho offender appears penitent, it isentirely proper for you to exorcise lenien-cy by dismissing the complaint; and inthe case now before you, gentlemen, youhave been entirely right in your action."

As tho District Attorney ended his re-marks tlure was a round of applause, inwhich I am certain every member of thejury participated. Thoso who had beenmost doubtful of the propriety of our ac-tion were heartily uzhul that their doubtswere not well founded.

A Pair of Western Nabobs in Xcw York.In Nevada there used to be current the

story of an adventuie of two of her na-bobs, which m y or may not have occur-red. I give it for what it is worth.

Col. Jim had seen somewhat of thoworld and know more or less of its ways.But Col. Jack was from the back sottle-ments of tho States, hail led a lifo of ar-duous toil, and never seen a city.

These two, blessed with sudden wealth,projected a visit to Xow York—ColonelJohn to seo the sights, and Colonel Jim to

lard his unsophisticated friend from misfortune. They reached San Fiancisco inthe night and sailed in the morning Ar-rived in New York, Colonel Jack said :

" I've heard tell of carriages all my life,and now I mean ty have a rido in one. Idon't care what it costs. Come along."

They stepped on to the sidewalk andColonel Jim called up a stylish barouche.But Colonel Jack said :

" Go, sir.' none of your cheap Johnturnouts for me. I'm here to have agood time and money isn't any object. Imean to havo the noblest r g that is go-ing. Now here comes the very trick.Stop that yellow one with tho pictureson it. Don't you fret —I'll fctaud all theexpense myself."

So Colonel Jim stopped an emptyomnibus and they got iu. Said ColonelJack :

"Ain't it gay, though-' Oh; no, Ireckon not. Cushions, wirj'lciw* and pic-tures till you can't rest What wouldtho boys say if they could see us cuttinga swell likethisiu New York? By GeorgeI wish they could see us."

Then he put his head out of tho win-dow and shouted to the driver:

" Say, Johnny, this suits me—suitsyours truly, you bet. I'm on it, old man.Let 'cm out ' Make 'em go! We'll makeit all right to you, sonny."

The driver passed his hand throughthe stray-hole, and tapped for his fare—it was before tho gongs came into com-mon use. Colonel Jack took the hand andshook it cordially. He said:

" You twig me, old pard ! All rightbetween gents. Smell of that, and seehow you like it."

And he put a twenty-dollar gold piecein the driver's hand. After a momentthe driver said he could not make change.

" Bother the change '. Rido it out. Putit in your pocket."

Then the Colonol, with a soun lingal »p on his thigh:

•'Ain't it style, though? Hanged if Idon't hire this thing ever day for a week."

The omn;bas stopped, and a yotn^ladygot in.

Colonel Jack started for a moment, thennudged Colonel Jim with his elbow.

" Don't say a word," he whispered, "lether ride if she wants to. Gracious, there'sroom enough."

Tho young lady got out her portmonaieand handed her fare to Colonel Jack.

" What's this for? " he said." Give it to the driver, please.""Take back your money, madame. We

can't allow it. You aro welcome to ridehere as long as you please, but the she-bang is chartered, and we shan't let youp y a cent."

The girl shrank into a corner bewilder-fid. An old lady with a basket climbedin and proffered her fare.

"Excuse me," said Colonel Jack. "Youarj perfectly welcome here, madame, butw.; can't allow you to pay. Sit rightdnvn there, mum, and don't feel the

Make yourself as freo as ifyou were in your own turn out."

Within two minutes three gentlementwo fat women and a couple of childrenentered.

" Come right along, friends," said Col.Jack, " don't mind us. This is a freeblow-out." Then ho whispered to Colo-nel Jim, " New York ain't no sociableplace ; I don't reckon it ain't no namefor it."

He resisted every effort to pass fares tothe driver, and made overybody cordiallywelcome. Tho situation dawned on thopeople, and they pocketed their money,and delivered themselves up to covert en-joyment of tho episode. Half a dozenmore passengers entered.

"Oh, thore is plenty of room," said Col.Jack. " Walk right in and make your-selves at home. A blow-out ain't worthanything as a blow-out unless a bodyhas company." Then in a whisper toColonel J im: " But ain't these NowYorkers friendly? And ain't they coolabout it, too? Icebergs ain't anywhere.I reckon they'd tackle a hearso if it wasgoing their way."

More passengers got in ; morn yet, andstill more. Both seats were filled, and afile of men were standing up holding onto tho cleats overhead. Parties withblankets and bundles were climbing upon the roof Half-suppressed laugliingrippled up from all sides.

"Well, for clean, cool, out-and-outcheek, if this don't bang anything I eversaw, I'm an Injun," whispered ColonelJack.

A Chinaman crowded his way in." I weaken," said Colonol Jack. " Hold

on, driver ! Keep your seats, ladies andgents. Just make yourselves free—ev-erytbing's paid for. Driver, rustle those

He said he wasguilty and should so plead; that he hadan invalid sister, and with the utmo. teconomy on his small salary he was una-ble to support himself. He kuew thatthis was no excuse for his theft, but he

How Two Immortals Met.In Praguo there was to be another of

thoso great musical jubilees for which thocapital of Bohemia was noted during thelast century, and from every directionjourneyed thither artists and lavinin,either to participate in tho exercises, orto listen. Already, on the day before thefete, the inns—large and small—of thecity proper woro overfilled, and the land-lords, desirous as they were to profit bythe occasion, could not do other than turnaway tho later arrivals. Many woro,tln-iufore, compelled to seek lodgings inthe taverns of the suburbs, which .wereusually patronized by people of the low-er order. A young man (a "pianist,"said his passport) from Vienna had, likemany others, sought lodgings in all thehotels of the city, without success, andfinally decided to go to an inn in ono ofthe suburbs, where he' was told ho wouldprobably find very comfortable quartersand-very arood fare. The youth was re-ceived by a laadlord of yery surly me n,who, after measuring him rrora head tofoot with a forbidding glance, Ithat he ccAild not accommodate him, " howas full." But there w,is a pretty youngservant girl within hearing, who did no1seem at all afraid of the cross-grained oldlandlord, and ventured to differ withhim.

" Yes, wo can accommodate the gentle-man, too," said she. " There will be noone in the wine room this evening; every-body will bo in the city. It's very easyto make up a bed for the gentlemanthere."

"Do so, for all I caro," muttered thelandlord, as ho turnt d away.

The young pianist decided to remain,as the girl assured him that she would seethat he was made comfortable, and thattho landlord was really not half so muchof a bear as he seemed. She now hasten-ed to prepare tho evening meal, and theyoung musician in the meantime repair-ed to a large rooin that WHS destined tobe his bed-room for thfa night. As theusual evening guests were not expected,the room had not been lighted; but theimam sliond through the vine-borderedwindow so as to enable the youth to seehis way, although indistinctly. In thecorner he discovered a sofa, on which hethrew himself in order to rest his wearylimbs while waiting for supper. He hadbeen there hut a few moments when thedoor opened and a man entered) whowalked to the farther and darker end ofthe room with a certainty of step whiohshowed that he was not a stranger to theapartment. A minute afterward thoyouth heard tho tones of a piano—at firsta few accords, then a melody, a wild mel-ody, that might have been likened to achorus of angels. Tho youth partiallyrose from the sofa, and listened as onewho would catch tho faintest sound.How radiant was every feature of his facewith ecstatic delight! This improvisa-tion, this heavenly improvisation, Be imedto transport him into another and higher-;.inre. There was but one—only one—

(tfid produce snob harmony, and tosee und hear him was tho chief object ofthe youth's journey. Ho rose and walkedon tiptoe over toward the piano, to sec,if possible, the performer. The tonesgrew softer and softer, until they finallydied away.

The finale was divinely beautiful, andheld the youthful enthusiast spell-bounduntil the master himself arose from hisreverie. The latter, when he had finish-ed playing, rose, went toward the sofa,and threw himself upon it, apparently fa-tigued. As the light of the moon fell onhis face, the youth saw he had before himan elderly man of peculiarly noble andbenevolent incin. Seeing that he hadnot as yet been observed, an idoa sudden-ly occurred to him, and he seated himselfnoiselessly at the piano. Again tho in-strument was made to utter its sweetesttones, and the man on the sofa listened inprofound admiration. He saw no on •but ho heard, aud what ho heard was suf-ficient to rivet his entire attention, nowpure the tones came from this masterhand! That it was a m s ter hand tholistener on the sofa qu ckly discovered.Tho joys of a youthful heart seemed tofind utterance in the first accords of theyoung musician. Then, gradually, thetones became deeper; the passions andtrials of a large, struggling nature, spokein the full and sorrowful accords, untilthey became the cry of bitter despair.What Music it was ! The older musicianLeaped his hands across his breast and

listened with his whole soul. lie knewof but ono composer who was capable ofproducing such music, and it was mainlyin the hope of meeting him that he»hadcome to the fete. He was confident thevirtuoso before him must be ho, aud heonly. Finally he arose and nobelesslyapproached the piano, until he stood be-hind the performer, who was so absorbedthat he neither saw nor heard him. Atlast he, too, ceased playing. He struckthe last accord and sank back exhausted.At. that moment a hand was laid gentlyon his shoulder, while another took himby the arm and led him toward the win-dow, where the light of the nioou fell fullupon his face. An elderly man, his eyesbeaming with delight, 'gazed at him amoment and then cried, in a tone that be-trayed deep emotion, "Mozart!" "Hay-den !'' responded the young man in anaccent not less joyous.

Thus met, for the first time, theso twoimmortal composers, whose greatest wishhad long been to know each other.

Tin- Diitchmnu's Insurance.Schmidt insured his wooden barn for

|900, and his Dutch wife for $5,000, tak-ing both policies from the same agent.Shortly after, the barn burned down, andSchmidt applied lor tho money; but thecompany s adjuster made up his mind thatthe edifice wasn't worth the amount in-sured for, and quietly told the owner theywould put up a new brick one instead ofpaying tho tfctMH). Schmidt was terriblyindignant. He said :

" I do not undershtand dis insurancepusincss. [pay you for "|900, and whenmy shtablc burn down you now make unow ouo. I not want a new shtablo. Iwant |900."

Talk and Inspiration.Good talk, says Oliver Wendell Holmes,

n '• Tho Poet at tho Broafast Table," isnot a matter of will at all; it depends—

iu know we aro all half materialistsnow-a-days—on a certain amount of ac-[ve congestion of the brain, and flintSWOTS when it is rrady and not before. I3aw a man got up the other day, in apleasant company, and talk away for fiveminutes, evidently by a pure effort ofwill. His person was good, his voico waspleasant, but any one could see that it was

What Is a Singer?Cobbam, in his " Advice to young Sin-

gers," says:" A person with a rich musical voice,

who can give an artistic rendering of an)-song ho may attempt to sing. Ho shouldbe able to impress his hearers, an;l rivettheir attention, no matter what his sub-ject may be. If sad, then he must usepathos and tender feeling; if gay, hehimself must be oheerful, jojousand live-ly ; if tho strain be martial ho must alsobe martial in look, word and action, fullof fire and brilliancy. He must beto declaim in a clear and masterly stylo ;t o much attention cs;nnot be paid tothis; for if ho merely sing in tune andthe words arc not hoard, he but does thatwhich an instrument is capable of. Thesoul of tho singer must rise with everyemergency ! and if he be clever, he willaway the minds of his hearers as the windplays with the teaves. At one moment)iis audience will bn roused to the high-e t pitch of enthusiasm, tho next may seethem melted even unto tears. But toiichievo this he must lose sight of him-Bolf and for the t ime be ing become ;.s itwere the individual whose feelings fa •

One personwith a capital voice shall sing a songwithout paying attention to tho above,and ero it is finished it becomes monoton-ous and oven painful to the ear. Anoth-er, with not nearly so good an organ, willuse it with judgment, one moment, thrill-ing his hearers with soft, plaintive utter-ings, und anon electrifying them with hisstirring enunciation. This, let it be re-membered, is tho sccrot of our gisingers; there must be life, soul and con-tract. Having a fine voico and usingtheso aids, he may attain the highest po-sition as a singer ; but without them hois poor indeed."

Photographic Ghosis.Photographers are acquainted with

three or four different ways in which sec-ondary images may appear in photo-graphs. In the first place, when a sensi-tive glass plate has served its turn as anegative—as many paper positives as maybe«needed having been taken from it—tho film of collodion or other preparedsurface is removed from it, and it may boused for a wholly new photograph. Butit is found that unless great cure, be usedsome faint traces of the former picturestill remain, and these may appear as aghostly attendant upon the iigure form-ing tho second picture. One photograph-er in endeavoring to utilize an old platewhich had fulfilled its duty as a negative,could not wholly erase tho image.Wash or rub as he might, thero was al-ways a faint ghost of tho person accom-panying any subsequent photograph ta-ken on the same plate.

Dr. Phipson relates that a friend of hisreceived at Brussels a box ot glass plates,quite new and highly polished, eachwrapped in a piece of newspaper; a ladysat for her photograph, taken on one ofthese plates, and both the photographerand the' lady were astonished to see thather likeness was covered with pricharacters, easy to be read—tho ghost ofa political article, in fact. Iu this caseactinic rays had done their work beforethe glass was exposed to the camera. Byanother mode of manipulation, a photographer may produce a ghost-like effectat will; a sitter is allowed to remain iathe focus of the camera, one-half the timenecessary t» produce a complete photo-

raph ; he slips quickly aside, and the f ur-nituro immediately behind him is thenexposed to the action of tho light; as aconsequence, a faint or imperfectly de-veloped photograph of the man appears,transparent or translucent, for the furni-ture is visible apparently through hisbody and head. With a little tact, a really surprising effect may be produced iuthis way. As a third variety, ono nega-tive may be placed in contact with an-other, and a particular kind of light al-lowed to pass through it for a time ; thereresults a double picture on the lower neg-ative.—London Photographers' Juurnal.

Ambitious Hopes Realized.While calling on Mrs. Carl Schurz, at

" I am sure you folt proud of him."In-tantly the intelligent and expressive

" Oh, you can imagine. My husbandtells me I am hi-; severest critic, but onTuesday I was satisfied. He was in themood to speak ; his voice, everything, wasin accord. And 18 years ago we came toAmerica and he did not speak & word ofEnglish. We were in Philadelphia, butmy husband felt tho greatest desire tovisit Washington.

The Weather Signal System.From the Chicago Tribune

The bitter weather of the 13th will not• forgotten. It was especially dis-

1 >lo as following upon a eeasou ofthaw that was worthy of January. Such

i and radical change has eoldombeen experienced. Up to midnight themercury in the thermometer stood at aboutforty-throe degrees, with a very lightmovement of the atmosphere. Soon af-ter midnight a storm set in, the icy windblow with almost hurricane force, andthe mercury sank rapidly. In ten hourstho temperature had dropped thirty-three degree- .i i: grew still colder asthe day advanced ami. shaded off into thonight.

The observations of the weathor, madeat nearly fifty different points in the Uni-ted States, by the Signal Service Corps ofthe United States Army, enable us to se&that this sudden change in Chicago wasbut an item in a general atmosphericmovement of great extent. Our firstpremonition of tho phenomenon came on.Sund iy night, in a telegram from FortBenton. The thermometer at that pointfell to zero ou Sunday afternoon, aboutfour o'clock, Chicago timo. At about elev-en o'clock on that night the temperaturoat Fort Benton fell to 11 degrees belowzero, and it was 15 degrees below at sixo'clock Monday morning, while none ofthe other signal stations in tho North-west exhibited any marked change oftemperature. But during tho day onMonday the mercury fell 35 degrees atOmaha, Hint sonii! eight to twelve hourslater a similar change occurred in Chicago. During all this time the temperaturoat stations several hundreds of milessouth of Fort Benton, Omaha and Chica-go, underwent no marked variation.

Theso facts show us that our city lay inthe path of a vast atmospheric wave,which burst upon Chicago from tho north-west, having traversed the distance of1 lev .i bun li I miles from Fort Bentonin two days, or at the rate of twenty-fiveto thirty miles per hour. How far westof Fort Benton it originated wo cannotnow say, but we have good reason to be-lievo that Chicago is far from the termi-nus of its sweep. The thermometer con-ditions, as telegraphed last evening, in-dicate that it has already passed far tothe southeast, and that a portion of thewave, after passing down the Valley of

en deflected totho southward, and was last night spend-ng its fury on Western Illinois and East-

ern Missouri.The breadth of this volume of moving

air is unknown. It did not extend far tothe southward of the line running fromFort Beuton to Omaha, us is shown bythe foot that Virginia City and Chey-tine wt;ro comparatively unaffected by.t. But thore can lie scarcely a doubt

that tho northern range of its course erx-tended at least ono hundred miles fromthat line, in which case the wavfl of in-tense cold will have been felt with espe-ial severity in Northern Dakota and

Minnesota, aud probably in the Lake Su-perior region. I t may bn that EasternWisconsin has been visit* A but mildly.

It is worthy of notice that the mercuryn tho barometer stood unusually low at11 the stations noted, and rose rapidly

with the advance of this wavo of cola.The barometer rose as ths thermometerfell, showing that the frigid visitation wasealiy due to tho movement of a vastolume of air which increased the total

weight of all the uir above ths places itpassed over.

It has long been known that thesenovementt of vast atmospheric waves

over large portions of tho earth's surfacetre general between the tropics; but theact that they occur equally in the tem-perate zones, though not with the sameegularity, has only been known within aBW years. It is yet scarcely sixteenlonths since a connected series of obser-ations of the weather at widely sunder-

ed places was bcigun in the United States ;;lit the knowledgo already gained there-

by is of immonso value. We now. knowhat very few atmospheric changes ofnagnitudo occur at any cm: place with-

'nonce of similar changes atther points far distant. An.l, what is ofven greater practical value, it is now

known that these changes do not occurimultaneously. They travel, so to speak,rom one point to another, with a definite-ate of speed, which very seldom exceedsforty five miles per hour, so that it is pos-sible to teligraph the fact of the a p ->ronch of a storm of wind, or of heat and>old, long before its arrival. In this wayhe advent of several stoims on the lakeslas been predicted within tho past year,ong enough in advance to enable thosen charge of ves-sols to prepare for the

event.

The system of storm telegraphy now inuso in the United States is far from be-ng perfect, but tho results attained are

very gratifying, and the progress alrea-dy achieved toward weather wisdom has"jeen so rapid that we may reasonably

• thoso prognoses to be all but in-fallible at no distant day.

John Brlght's Early Days.John Bright was born at his father's

residence, called Greenbank, near Roch-dale, on the 16th of November, 1811. Hisfather, Mr. Jacob Bright, a member oftho Society of Friends, had raised him-,elf from the ranks to the position of anopulent master cotton-spinner, and inEochdale enjoyed a well-earned reputa-tion for energy and native shrewdness.The inhabitants of Rochdale ;>re notedfor their sagacity and forethought; andthe town has the merit of being thebirthplace and metropolis of the co-op-erative effort in England. Mr. JacobBright built first one factory and thenanother on the verge of tho commoncalled Oronkeyshaw. Theso, with otherbuildings now erected, known as FieldHouse Factories, belong to his sons—partners in the firm of "John Bright &Brothers." Mr. Jacob Bright the elderretired from business in 1839, and, attain-

o to a good old age, lived to sec thorising political eminence of his son. Thohouse in which John Bright was born

His brother,Mr. Jacob Bright, represents Manchesterin Parliament, and wns elected, in 1836,tl.e first Mayor of l is native borough.John Bright WHS the second of ten chil-dren—the eldest of v ho n died TOHBft-.aud in his ^ arly j e . s h • own feeble healthwas a cuii . anxiety to hisparents.

.. Bis health being still unsatis-factory, he was sent for fresh air and e«Seroise to Newton-in-Bolland, where hiseducation was conducted by a tutor. Iu-vigorated by rambles on the breezy upilands of that part of Yorkshire, he re-turned to Eochdale, and at an early agotook part in his father's business. A factconnected with this part of Mr. Blight'slife, and which possesses a biographicalinterest, was stated by himself, in 1M7,

House of Commons, during a dis-cussion on tho Factory bill. " For my--self," ho said, I have never been at schoolsince I was fifteen years of ago. It istrue there are, no doubt, many thingswhich honorable members know or learn

ing at college until they arotwenty-one of which I am ignorant,but still I consider my own case to be Insome degree » proof that a man may getsome education by remaining :.i schooluntil to is only fifteen."— ':mr.

The Cincinnati Con/ention.When Mr. Grocley said, in tho VV

that the Cincinnati Convention 'prove a fiasco, and it may dosignato thenext President of the United States," Loiiiil not discredit Ids reputation i'or polit-i LI veracity. If all the lijpublieiiu ele-ment* of opposition to President Uruntshould be fully represented attlu: Cincin-nati Convention, it will be one of thomost controlling political assemblagesthat ever met in the United States.

As regards the Cincinnati Convention,tho Democratic party occupies tho posi •tion of spectators. That convention willrepresent P. schism in theBepublioan \inr-ty, which Democrats must loavo to bofought out within the Republican ranis.If tho Republican recalcitrants can de-feat the renomination of Grant, that isan affair of tliuir own, with which Demo-crats have no right to interfere. Weshould, of course, regret to see Grant de-feated as the Republican candidate; be-causo almost any other selection wouldreunite the Republican party, and impairthe chances of a Democratic victory intha ensuing Presidential canvass. Thereis nothing which the Democratic partyso much desires as the success of Grant inthe Philadelpliia Convention, whichwould give us the advantage of Bghtingagainst one section of tho Republicanparty, instead of the whole of it.

Viewing tho Cincinnati Conventionmerely as outsiders, Democrats are per-haps better judges than tho participantsof what is necessary to make the move-ment potential. As yet, its basis is notbroad enough to give it a predominantinfluence. A call issued by tho dissat-isfied Republicans of a single State (Mis-souri) lacks moral and political influence.Tho call needs to be strengthened. I tneeds to bo backed not merely by the an-ti-Grant Republicans of one State, but ofall tho Status. We learn, from a very au-thentic soureo, that a movement is incontemplation for giving the CincinnatiConvention this kind of indorsement. Ifwo are not misinformed, a manifesto willbe issuod in sufficient season before theCincinnati Convention meets, numerous-ly signed by the anti-Grant Republicansof all tho States, calling upon honest menof the party to send representatives tothat assemblage. This manifesto, as weunderstand, will be deferred until afterthe New Hampshire and Connecticut el-ections. If Grant is defeated in both ofthese States, Ms Republican enemies willtake courage, and the Cincinnati Conven-tion will be formidable enough to proventGrant's nomination at Philadelphia. Butif Grant's friends should carry New Hamp-shire and lose Connecticut (and they arecertain to loso Connecticut) the Cincin-nati Convention would bo less bold, andmerely, preparo a bolt against Grant'snomination instead of expecting to de-feat it:

But lot the spring elections in NowEngland turn out as they may, the Cin-cinnati call will be strengthened by amanifesto numerously signed by well-known Republicans in all tho States.For the Republican party the crisis is agrave one, involving nothing less thai)the dissolution or continued existence ofthe party. This question will be virtuallydecided by the Cincinnati Convention ;and the prospect that tho Missouri call•will bo re-enforced by a great number ofeminent Republicans in all tho otherStates, will cause tho meeting and theproceedings of that body to bo watchedwith unusual interest.

About the Japanese Rmbassy.There is a bit of romance connected

with tho departure of the Japaneso fromtime-honored traditions in allowing liveyoung ladies, daughters of high officers,to leave home to reside in a foreign land.It seems that Minister DeLong, with hischaracteristic zeal, assisted Iwakura insending his sons to college, and when thelatter returned his acknowledgment forthe Minister's kind attentions, he visitedMr. DoLong's house in person. Struckwith the elegant and orderly arrange-ment of the interior of tho building, andthe numerous evidences of comfort, Iwa-kura became inquisitive, and bogan.a se-ries of interrogations.

"How is it that your house is so neatand pleasant!'" said Iwakura.

" Because a lady manages tho house-hold," replied the Minister.

This reply set Iwakura to thinking,and, as he is a bit of a philosopher, hequickly propounded questions directy tothe point, and received answers equallypertinent. Mr. DcLong told Iwakurathat the womon of America were allowedto visit places of public amusement withtheir-husband, had almost as much free-dom as the men, and, in order that thisfreedom might be appreciated, these wo-men wer"e educated. In America, womancommanded more respect than in Japan,and was not the slavo of her husband. I t•was good that woman should be educa-ted and respected. Iwakura rememberedMr. DeLong's words, and the demolitionof one tradition about females is due ingreat measure to their joint efforts. Theyoung ladies, Misses Yoshimas, Onyeda,Yamagwa, Tsuda and Nagai, who oame•with tho Embassy, aro not princesses,though daughters of high, wealthy offi-cials, and members of the Japanese " up-per ten." The two eldest, who aro aboutsixteen years of ago, have an excellentJapanese education, and the other threehave advanced as fur in native studies astheir youth would admit. The social po-sition of the female sex among the Jap-anese nppears to be more favorable thanin most pagan countries. Tho daughtersin a Japanese family iviceive an equalamount of parental care and attentionwith that bestowed on the male offspring.Nothing beyond tho oominoulyprevalent pagan sentiment of thoinferiority of the female oyeratos to tin:disadvantage of women in the family cir-cle. Among tho leading classes tho girlsore taught dancing and vocal and instru-mental music. The universal oufiJom ofcr^eiiig the lips a deep red color, am"! be-Fmearrng the face with a white powi?crof flour-dust is one of the features of thoJapanese lady's toilet—in which tho Am-erican lady can so far surpass hor that acomparison would be odious. Our Jap-anese lady visitors are good average rep-resentatives of ladies of the first class, andnre unmarried and disengaged. Theirladylike demeanor has won them a hostof friends among the American women,who declare that they are perfectly charm-ing. They are'vivacious, yet self-reliantand dignified in manners. In the ordina-ry mutual intercourse of friends and fam-ilies, the women have their share, accord-to Hawkin'ii report in 1854, and rounds ofvisiting and tea-parties are kept up asbriskly u* in the United States.

The Toledo War.A very interesting official memento of

the Toledo War has been shown us byAuditor-General Humphrey, it havingcome to light in tho recent removal andre-arrangement of the books in his officeIt is the Pay Roll of the soldiers in theToledo War in 1836, containing the nameof each officer nnd soldier, the amount ofp»y he received, and in most iniitfmicceipt for the same. There are abouti 160 names, and among them some menliving at tho present time. Reuben C.Maddeo, of this city, was a private in the"Oakland Detachment." John J. Adam,now a meiniior of the Legislature fromLonawoe County, was Second Lieutenantin Colonel i.'avi.t Smith's &th Regiment.George C. Bates, now U. S.

'old-, and should be repealed. And be-lieving that all tho evils resulting fromunjust legislation now affecting tho in-dustrial classes can be removed by theadoption of the principle contained in thefollowing declaration; therefore,

S solved, That it is the duty of the gov-ernment to establish a just standard ofdistribution .of capital and labor by pro-viding a purely national circulating me-dium, based on the faith and resources ofthe nation, issued directly to tho peoplewithout the intervention of any system ofbanking corporations, which money shallbe legal tender in the payment of alldebts, public and private, and inter-changeable at tho option of the holderfor government bonds bearing a rate ofinterest not to exceed :S 65 per cent, sub-ject to future legislation by Congress.

. That !!)•• national debt shouldbe paid in good faith according to tho or-iginal contract, at the earliest option ofthe government, without mortgaging theproperty of the peoplo or the future ex-igencies of labor to enrich a few capital-ists at home and abroad.

Resolved, That justice demands that theburdens of government should be so ad-justed as to bear equally on all classes,and that the exemption from taxation ofgovernment bonds bearing extravagantrates of interest is a violation of all justprinciples of revenue laws.

Resolved, That the public lands of thoUnited States belong to the people, nndshould not be sold to individuals norgranted to corporations, but should beheld as a sacred trust for the benefit ofthe people, and should bo granted* tolandless settlers only, in amounts not ex-ceeding 160 acres of land.

Risoixmd, That Congress should modifyt'.i- tariff so as to admit free such articlesof common use as we oan neither producenor grow, and lay duties for revenuemainly upon articles of luxury, and uponsu'-h articles of manufacture as will, wohaving the raw materials, assist in furtherdeveloping the resources of the country.

Resolved, That the presence in our coun-try of Chinese laborers, imported by cap-italists in large numbers for servile use, isan evil, entailing want and its attendanttrain of misery and crime on nil classos ofthe American people, and should bo pro-hibited by letjislat on.

Itesolced, That we ask for the enactmentof a law by which all mechanics and daylaborers employed by or on behalf of thogovernment, whether directly or indirect-ly, through persons, llrms, or corporations,contracting with the State, shall reformto the reduced standard of eight hours aday, recently adopted by Congress for national employes, and also for an amend-ment to the acts of incorporation for cit-ies and towns, by which all laborers andmechanics employed at their expense shallconform to the same number of hours.

11 solth /, That the enlightened spirit oftho ago demands the abolition of the sys-tem of contract labor in our prisons andother reformatory institutions.

j;..•itlrcil, That the protection of life, lib-erty, and property are the three cardinalprinciples of government, and the firsttwo arc more sacred thanthe latter; there-fore, money needed for prosecuting warsshould, as it is required, be assessed andcollected from the wealthy of tho coun-try, and not cntuiied as a burden on pos-terity.. Resolved, That it is the duty of the gov-ernment to exerciso its power over rail-roads and telegraph corporations, thatthey shall not in any case be privileged toexact such rates of freight, transporta-tion, or charges by whatever name, asmay bear unduly or unequally upon theproducer or consumer.

Renuked, That fitness, and not politicalor personal considerations, should be theonly recommendation to office All lawstending to secure tho establishment ofthis principle shall meet with our heartycommendation.

Resolved, That as both history and ex-perience teach us that power ever seeks t Jj ' irpi tuate itself by every and all moans,and that its prolonged possession in thehands of one person is always dangerousto the interests of a free people, and be-lieving that tho spirit of ourorganio law?and the stability and safety of our freeinstitutions are best obeyed on tho onehand, and secured on tho other, by a reg-ular constitutional change in the chief ofthe country at each election ; therefore,we are in fav.or of limiting the occupancyof tho Presidential chair to one term.

Resohvl, That wo aro in favor of grant-ing general amnesty and restoring thoJmion at once on the basis of equality OirijAts aud privileges to all, the impartialjidmi.'iistration of justice b( ing the onlytrue bo.id of union to bind the States to-gether aud restore the people of the gov-erntndi.it.

Air.s. Kramer has remained uncoilduring the day, and no hopes arc enter-tained of her recovery. The house wasransacked from top to bottom, and it isestimated that from 1800 to | |,000 in goldand silver and considerable paper moneywas taken. The victims wero eaoh be-

FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 1.1872

THE INDIANA REPUBLICANS.At tho Republican State Convention of

[ndiana, held on the 22d inst, the follow-ing Candidates weTe nominated:

For Governor—Gen. THOMAS BROWNE.Fbr Lieut. Governor—LEONIDAS 8EX-

TOX.

for Congressman at large—Hon. GOD-LOW S. OKTII.

Nominations wrre also made for Stateofficers, and delegates at largo appointedto the Philadelphia Convention, which

tes\v8re instructed to vote for thenomination of GRANT and COI.IAX.

Tho platform is long and complex, dip-cussing everything tinder tho sun, andfully endorsing Congress and tho Presi-dent, " without a why or whorofore." Ontho question of tariff, one of tho absorb-ing subjects of the day, it "squints bothways for Sunday ; " commending in oneresolution the proposed " reduction of thotariff and internal taxos," and in anotherrequesting " Our Senators and Represent-atives in Congress to use their influencein any revision of tho tariff to secure tothe coal and iron interests of our Stateall the incidental protection consistentwith a due regard to the principles of re-ducing the burden of taxation." "Which" reminds us of a story," tho story of thehunter who, doubtful of the nature of thogame before him, was advised by his col-ored servant, sharper probably than hismaster, to " shoot so as to hit it if it is adeer and miss it if it is a caU'."

THE duty on printing paper is 20 percent. Tho imports of paper for the fiscalyear 1870-71 amounted to only §69,0u0,on which the government collected ¥l;>,-$00. Tho total consumption of paper forthe same year aggregated $72,000,000, thoconsumers paying for,the same—owing tothe tariff but going to the manufacturer—tho enhanced price of $12,240,000. Thisis one very substantial reason why thebill of Mr. VOOBHEES putting paper ontho free, list should puss Congross. I t isa duty levied almost rx< Utsively for pro-tection, and as such violates the correctprinciples of political economy.

The bill of Mr. VoORUEES also abolishesthe duty on typo, ink and other printingmaterial. Before the war we boughtLong Primer type for 32 cent.s a pound;during the war it went up with gold—and a combination grounded on the tariffduty—to 62 cents a pound; and since thewar, though gold has gone from 280 to110, the same size of type has been keptup by tho tariff and the continuation to 56cents. It is not the cost of manufactur-ing, but tho combination mado practica-ble by the tariff duty, which keeps up theprice and wrongs aud defrauds tho cm-ploying printers of the country. Takeoff tho duty and tho price must comedown.

A FEW days ago tho demagogue of theHouse, by the aid of a few "innocents,"mado haste to pass a bill abolishing theimport duty on tea and coffee, a duty lev-ied solely and exclusively for revenue, aduty which put annually about $20,000,-000 into tho treasury, and not a singledollar into tho pockets of sick and lan-guishing producers or pampered and fat-tened monopolists.

On Monday last Mr. Cox, of Ohio, mov-ed to suspend the rules so that a resolu-tion might be introduced and put on itspassage instructing the Committee onWays and Means to report a bill reducingthe duty on pig iron to §o por ton, andthis samo House, by a vote of 74 to 99, re-fused to suspend tho rules and pass theresolution. The duty on pig iron, likethat on manufactured iron, and unlikethat on tea and coffee, is nominally leviedfor revenue, but ready nnd largely for pro-tection, and every dollar it produces forthe government it puts an extra $4 intotho pockets of the manufacturers. Cheaptea and coffee, and dear tools and machin-ery, steamboats and railroads, houses andshops; that is tho aim of the House.What say the people ?

THE Kansas Pacific Railway Companyhas memorialized Congress, asking legis-lation protecting it against the discrimi -nating charges and arbitrary exaotions oftho Union Pacific road. To compel alltravel to go and come by the way ofOmaha, and all freights to sook that lino,/ • al rates are charged for passengers andfreight coining from the Kansas Pacific atCheyenne, and also on eastern bound pas-sengers and freight between Ogden andCheyenne. This is done to provent theKansas Pacific competing for trafficthrough from or to the Pacific, or fromSalt Lake or points intermediate betweenOgden and Chcyonne. Theso two roadswero built under tho samo original char-ter, and the interests of tho traveling andbusiness public, the interests of the coun-try demand that a passenger bo permittedto go tia the Kansas Pacific, stopping offif ho chooses or finds it necessary at Den-ver at through rates. To compol alltravel to cross the Omaha bridgo is aninjustice and outrage and Congress shouldafford the relief asked for by the KansasPacific in tho interest of tho public.

EH the Senato, on Tuesday, Mr. SHTJRZadministered consolation— homeopathicconsolation, perhaps—to his Republicanfriends who have boon so anxious to knowwhat ho was " going to do about it." Thotelsgraph reports him as saying :

" I t has been said that I am on thopoii't of going over to the Democrats.Let n.'1 set at rest tho souls who madethat suggestion. I shall not go over totho Democrats. I have never thought of<*oing over to tho Democrats, and I donot think of it now, but what T do thinkis this, that the."' will be an opportunityof opposing the r._'-eleefion of the Presi-dent without voting for a Democraticcandidate. J think there will be an op-poi-1 unity for voting for a,s good a Repub-lican as there is on this floor without vo-ting for General Grant." [Applause intho galleries. The presiding officer di-reetfrd tho iSergcant-at Arms to arrest the

as who applauded.] "Tho people,"be said, " wore grateful to General Grantfor the capture of Vickeburg and otherplaces, but they were still more thankfulthat. Vieksburg and those other placeswere no longer to be captured, and whatthey wanted now was a free, honest andpure government."

Now let tho GBAXT Kepublicans "boaisy! " they know SOHTJKZ won't ruinhis prospects by supporting him.

One of the best temperance sermonsever delivered is this sen'enco by thelate Rev. Samuel J. May: " I f it is asmall sacrifice for you to give up drinkingwine, do it for the sake of others ; if it isa great (sacrifice, do it for your own sake.

— Tho Detroit Tribune begins to " sus-pect suspicion," or, in other words, "smella mice." I t is of the opinion that thelate Labor-Reform Convention—whichnominated Judge Davis, of 111., for Presi-dent, and Gov. Parker, of N.

LETTER FROM D.YCOTV.F.viifrO, D. T., Feb. 10, 1872. )

Tho Red River of the North. jTO THE AKGUS:

We have received a number of letterssince coming here, from the friends weloft behind not only in Washtcnaw, butin Monroe, Lonawee and other Bur-rounding counties, poking about the RedRiver valley,—of its agricultural resourcesespecially. And whilu wo would adviseall who have comfortable homes in South-ern Michigan to remain where they are,we would like to say a few words throughyour columns to others who are not sowell situated, and who are thinking ofbettering their condition by "movingWest," and who think of coming to thisbeautiful valley and casting their fortuneswith us along tho line cf the N. P. R. R.

That portion of the Red River valleysouth of the national boundary line isabout 70 milos wide and 250 miles long.Through the center of this runs tho RodRiver, between high, bluffy banks, crook-edly but rapidly to Lake Winnepog, andeasily navigable from that point to this,the crossing of tho N. P. R. R., 40 milesbelow Fort Abercrombie. •

Tho Red River iucreases rapidly as itflows north, from the numerous streamsconstantly flowing in from the east andwest. All of these streams flow downthrough beautiful, gently rolling prai-ries, and like the Red River, are heavily• •li'b'.sred with oak, ash, elm, and otherwood of large size and excellent qualityMany of the streams, especially Red LakeRiver, flow down from excellent pinelands, so that this country can be easilysupplied with lumber from tho railroadswhich deliver it horo at a small advanceon Minneapolis prices.

• lame is abundant in the timber, andfish of an oxcellent quality in tho riversThe cultivation of fruits has never beentried north of Southern Dacota, in thoMissouri valley ; but I hold it to be anesi ablished fact that tame fruit can begrown, with a little care, where wild fruitof the same variety grows naturally, aricI have nover seen wild plums, grapes ancherries grow to such size and in fuelabundance as they do here. The saimmay bft said of the small berries—straw-berries especially, which dye the cart-wheels of the Half Breeds red as they aredrawn over the prairies. The soil is althat could be wished for farming, a deeprich black loam and heavy clay subsoil.

To the homeless and lanaless the Daoota side of the Red River presonts greaterinducements than the Minnesota. Tinland in Minnesota is to a great extenheld by speculators in large tracts, amtheso large foreign land holders are acurse to any country. But tho polic;pursued by tho general government iiDacota makes it impossible for one maito 't~rX more- tlian 1G0 acres, except b)buying it of the actual pre-emptor orhomesteader. Hundreds of claims hav<been taken here last summer, mostly bjNew Englanders, and many moro are vaoust. The R. R. lands will be in markenext summer at reasonable figures, ancthey will doublo in value within a yearespecially those immediately surroundingthis town.

Previous to the building of tho N. PR. R. and tho St. Paul <i N. P. to this,river, there were no inducements to raise1

more produce than was actually needecfor home consumption, as there was nomarket for the supplies. Everything isnow changed^and we aro in direct com-munication with St. Paul, over the StP. tV N. P., and with Duluth, the groatshipping point of the Northwest, over theN. P., while a road will be finished toPembina in the spring, from St. Cloudon the Mississippi, and these three roads,terminating on the Red River, will beconnected by a road running up anddown this river on th» Dacota side. Fouiboats of largo size will ply on this rivernoxt summor, between this town and FortGarry, to which point thousands of tonsof freight must be slapped by tho HudsonBay Co.

Magnificent crops of wheat, oats, bar-ley, potatoes, aud some corn aro raisedAs for vegetables—cabbages, turnips, &c—I have never seen hotter. I t does not fol-low because we aro so far north that ouiwinters are severe. Up to the middle oiNovember we never experienced morigenial weather, then winter closedin steady and unchangeable until the be-ginning of this month, since which timethe days have been warm and bright—sowarm, in fact, as to melt the snow on thes'inny fide of buildings. Ice in the riveiis only 1 "> inches thick, and the ground Ufrozen but IS inches, on account of anearly fall of snow, which now isaboutonefoot deep on the prairie.

We aro expecting a great rush of immi-gration here in the spring, and to all weextend a hearty welcome. We need strongarms and ready hearts to help to build upthis Territory : to help build up churchesand schools, and to inako civilized thaiwhich is barbarous.

We already see in imagination thohomeless and landless pressing westwardfrom tho crowded East, and hear theshout go up of "Ho for Dacota ! " Alrea-dy tue whistle of the locomotive is heardresounding up and down this valley andaway over these beautiful prairies, her-alding a bright and glorious future forNorthern Dacota, where soon thousandsof happy land -holders will

The Br i t i sh-Case ."NEW Y<IKK, Feb. 27.

The Tribune this morning publishes anibstraet of the British case submitted tohe arbitrators at Geneva.

In this statement her Majesty's govern-nent complains that it has had to replyo au argument not yet presented. Whenhat shall be presented, anil the claims

of the Unit shall 1 e defined pre-:isely her Majesty's government will ex-iroise the right conferred upon it by arti-

cle four of tin: treaty, to submit to thexibunal an additional or more extended

statement of the facts, as the case mayexact, until a comparison of tho cases pre-sented by both parties shall determineho points really in dispute between thetwo governments. I t will refrain fromill discussion intended to si#ta.in its ownjositiou, and will limit itself at present.o submitting to tho judgment of the tri-

nal the following considerations:THE RESPONSIBILITY 03 ETEUT&AX8.

As the ships, whatever the circum •stances, Were procured in British ports torwar purpose?, and were employed as bel-ligerent uriiiscrs against tho UnitedSatus, while Great Britain herself re-mained neutral, these events l iav he.MI aause of great ilispleasuro and regret to

her Brittannic Majesty. This regret ex-ists, despite tho following facts, which, itmust be conceded, aro important to ar-rive at a j ust appreciation of the question :Tin? vessels were procured by cunningand clandestine means, which hauled thevigilance of the government officers. Notone had the least armament. Soiue hadbeen constructed as ordinary vessels, hav-ing nothing adapting them speciallyfor war. In number they wero very small,and, finally, the persons who obtainedpossession and control of them and em-ployed them for belligerent purposes werethemselves American citizens, which thoUnited States Government has alwaysadmitted. Such facts should seriously af-fect, in the minds of every impartial man,the question relative to tho responsibili-ty of a neutral government.

Till: CLAIMS FOR l'ECUNIAHY 1DEMMTV.

The Vnited States Government, professes to have a right to pecuniary idemni-ty for claims which it says resulted fromthe acts of theso vessels—that is to say,the warlike operations carried on bymeans of these veisels by persons whohad them in charge. I t is evident thata pretension of this nature is such thaiher Majesty's government, animated asit is with the most amicable sentimentstoward the United States, could not, invirtue of the respect it owes to its ownrights, and thoso of neutral nations ingeneral, consent to admit, since it believesthat it is not founded on justice. I t de-volves on the United States to establishthe propositions it. has advanced; tostate clearly tho international duty orduties on which they are based, and todemonstrate the violation of which itcomplains. A charge against a sover-eign government having evinced culpa-ble negligence in the exercise of one othe powers of sovereignty is an imputa-tion which should bo sustained by strongand solid reasons. A nation ought noto bo held responsible for a delay or omis-sion which may be due simply to acci-dent, and not to want of foresight or ivasonablo care. Finally, it does not suffictto demonstrate that .mi act has been commited which the government shoulihave foreseen. What must be advanoecand proved is that the government i'aileito exorcise the same amount of care as iusually employs in international affairsand which it may be reasonably requiredto use in matters affecting internationalinterests an.1 duties. If the tribunal de-

•.lj.it Great Britain has incurredany responsibility whatever toward theUnited Stat.-s th" question will thenarise as to what will be the just miand extent of that responsibility. Her

ty'n government abstains at presentfrom entering on this question, and re-serves for a more advanced period of dis-cussion all the observations that it Bhalldetermine to s'lbmit on this point in thename of Great Britain. If el time of thiskind are admitted without reserve, a bel-ligerent could ask to be idemnifled by aneutral for results which justly mightnot be laid to the account of the litter,but should be placed to its own incapac-ity and initiative. Her Majesty's gov-ernment is obliged to point out that, inregard to the ships which form the objectof the preceding statement, the Unit dStates Government, or its officers, evincedextraordinary tardiness in employing thenaval forces at its command, and that ii'ordinary activity were exercised to cap-ture or interfere with these vessels, the

of which the United States com-plain to-day would have been in greatpart averted.

Whether the decision of the tribunalis or is not favorable, Great Britain isready to yield to thedecrne. She has r>n--ly one wish—that it be just. Sho raisesonly one pretension—that it be foundedon a faithful and equitable interpretationof tho rights of man, and on principleswhich herself and all other powers willnot repent of recognizing and observing,cither as neutrals or as belligerents intime to come.

LAV. ., Feb. 24.—Tho report>f the Committee of tho Legislature to-tayin the Oaldwell bribery caso is re-oivod here with somo surprise. Whilehe evidence is overwhelming againstOaldwell, tho committee attack Pomeroy,barney, Chuke and others, and it isnought have attempted to complicatelie real issue for political purposes by as-aulting outside parties. It is expectedlore that. Caldwell will now ask an inves-igation in tho United States Senate, orhat the Senate will order one.

Politically, the parties implicated aroike Ciesar's wife, above suspicion. No.aint of Democracy attaches to them.They are Radicals all, Radicals of tho firstwater, "loil" and "patriotic" to the core.

An "Old Abolitionist" Heard From.Among tho letters read at tho rocont

Missouri Convention of " Liberal Repub-icans," was one from CASSIUS M. CLAY,

of Kentucky, from which we quote as fol-ows:

Slavery being dead, I resist with thoBame earnestness that I did its existencethe attempt of the Grant conspirators tosubjugate the" South, and to make usprovincial for nil time to a moro thanRoman imperialism

I denounce the attempt to weaken usby a studied policy of arraying the blacksagainst the whites. I denounce the de-sign of barbarizing us by the corrupt andirresponsible rule of men from the North,who have no common interest in our af-fairs, who divido our people and wastoour substance.

I denounce the attempt to reverse thonatural order of tilings by subjecting, byconstitutional changes and ingeniouslycontrived laws, tho intelligence ancproperty of tho South to ignorance ancpauperism.

I denounce the enmity of the Granirule to the independence of Cuba, becausethey know that Cuba must in interestfinally gravitate towards and belong totho South.

I denounco the union of the powers o'the executive, judicial and legislative de-partments in the military head of the nation.

I denounce tho nepotism, favoritismand corruption and proscription ofGrant Administration.

the unconstitutional and despotic interference with the right of peaceable assemblsges of tho people at the ballot-bo>by the frequent and alarming use of tbcartridge-box.

Loil and "Bleeding Kansas'lHeart FromToi'KKA, KAN., Fob 2:1—Tho Bribery

Investigation Committee reported to theHouse to-day. The report was long andsigned by every member of the commit-tee. It saye that regarding the Senator-ial election of 1867, they find that muchmoney was used by Pomeroy, Carney andPerry Fuller, but they hud not time tomake a thorough investigation. Regard-ing the election lust winter the committeereports a mass of evidence showing bri-bery and corruption on the part of bothSenator Caldwell and ex-CongressmanClarke. Proof is positive that Caldwellstated that his election cost him over$50,000, and that he paid of this over tenpercent to ex-Gov. Carney j thathesefv-oral times offered to refund to Clarke allhis expenses if lie (Clarke) would with-draw from the contest. The report alsosays that Alexander Caldwell used brib-ery and other corrupt and criminal prac-tices, by himself and his friends with hisfull knowledge and consent to secure hiselection to the United States Senate; thatthere was an organized effort made fromtho commencement to keep importantwitnesses out of the way, and that it liasbeen impossible to procuie their evidence.Fifty thousand copies of the report andevidence were ordered printed, and cop-ies were ordered sent to eaeh Kansas Sen-ator ami to the Vice-President, the latterto bo laid before the United States Senatefor its information.

ST. Lot-is, Feb. 2-I.—The Democrat's To-peka special, referring to tho report ofthe Bribery Investigation Committee,mado to the House to-day, says some cur-ious facts came to light. It seems thatSenator Pomeroy and Sidney Clarke gaveM. W. Reynolds, at that time editor ofthe Lawrence Journal, their note for $1,000in March, 1866, tho consideration ofwhich was that the Journal should sup-port Pomeroy for re-election to the Sen-ate and (Marke to Congress. Reynoldswent back on them and they refused thenote. Suit was brought, and 1 'omeroyand Clarke put in as a defe.nse the factthat the note was given for an improperpurpose, and judgment was given to de-fendants. Reynolds had the papers allmade out ready to carry the case to theSupreme Court, at. the next term. Justbefore the meeting of the court Reynoldsreceived the appointment of Receiver oftho Land Office in Southern Kansas, amiimmediately dismissed the appeal. Ho isnow editor of a weelrly paper which issupporting Pomoroy's* re-election for thethird term. It also came out that thePresident of the Kansas Pacific Railroadpromised Caldwell $30,000 to help him tobo elected to the Senate, and after elec-tion refused to pay more than he had al-ready paid, which was 910,000. Tom An-derson, agent of the Kansas Pacific Roadit this place, and through whom the $10,-000 was paid, and who also paid out largosums besides, as the testimony shows, haslot been before the committee. He withLew Smith, business partner of Caldwellnnd John Fletcher, another person who,t was proved, paid out money, to use the

A Swindle.Swindlers are now perambulating tho

country representing themselves as pat-ent right venders, and operafng in thofollowing manner, as giveu by tho Tiffin,(Ohio) Tribune:

" The patent right vendor goes into aneghborhood and approaches a <i:

ig him that ho has a patent right tosell, and wishes his assistance in sellingit to a neighbor. Ho proposes to the

man he approaches, whom we willcall A., to take his note for f 1,250 for aoertain amount of territory. This noteho says he will show to the neighbor—H.wo will call him—who by seeing that A.has confidence, in tho patent will also beinduced to buy. When the note is 9©cur-ed of H., it is to be sold, an i tho proceedsare to be divided between the patentright vender and the latter is to havo hisnote back. If successful in getting A 'snote, the patent right man goes to H.and proposes exactly tho miino thing. Ithe gets H.'B note, also, neither A. nor II.sees him as he goes and disposes of eachone's piece of paper, and pockets the pro-ceeds.

Tho work on the Sault St. Marie canalis progressing as well as tho weather willpermit. The sovero cold weather hasoperated very much against tho work.So severo was the cold in tho early partof winter that the taking down of the oldguard look hud to he suspended, as thewhole thing was frozen into one. solidmass, and to tuke it down would haverequired the destruction of every stonein it.

The Pictorial Family Uogisior."We have just received from those well-known pub-

lishers of fir.~t-il.-.i-s robMription books, Mara . E.HANX \FOBD & Co., a copy of their unique and beauti-ful novelty, " The Pictorial Family BttUttr." Wehardly know how to ilcscrilw it. but may a.iy it oom-l.iii, „ the features of a very (nstiful Fumily l'hoto-grftpli Albuni with a complcto and iystemftticaHy ar-ranged family history. Ithu» evidently boen prapetndWith p-eat care to meet a real wont in society.. Inevery family thero arc sacred memories conuectedwith the living nnd tho dead, and a safe, elegant andtasteful arrangement for presorving a fuller record ofthem than ia convenient in the Family Bible, is oftenfolt to be exceedingly desirnWe. The publishers of thework before us have provided for this in ndiuirablostyle.

A great deal of information both interesting andvaluable in the history .of ovary family is constantlybeing- forgotten and lost, for the want of some means,

h u Uiis RBOMTEB, for collecting and preserv-ing it. Its forma are neatly printed and very simple,so that any one who can write can easily fill them up.In addition to these forms, tho " REGTSTEK " [four

. ( ••:,•:, mdifMualembraces&«p«00 for miscel-mamoranda of aar kind, and a leaf for tho

insertion of a photograph. There are enough of theseRegisters to include all desired dates in respect totWQ&t7-fiv6 individual lives and persons. Two " Mil-itary Jcerar.ls " are also added at the close of the work,for noting the principal events in the military life ofthose members of the family who may one© havoserved their country iu the army.

From this brief description our readers will perceivethat the " Pict'iriat Family Begith r " ii really a treas-ury of home comfort and household intnimation, adctidcratum and a positive luxury. It is as useful,too, a& it is ornamental.

Tho enterprising publishers, Messrs. E. HASNAFORP& Co., ;177 West Fourth Street, Cincinnati, and 108W. Madison St., Chicago,) announce that it will beMid by subscription only. They desire agents for it

•lv. We are not informed in regard to com-missions allowed, but from tho character and stand-ing of the firm, we have no doubt they are liberal,and if so, the sale of this most popular work mustrove highly remunerative.

No English wo-man of rank (with the exception of a. fewparvenues) from the Queen downward,would remain for one half hour unem-ployed, or sit in ft rocking-chair, unlessseriously ill. They almost all, with hard-ly an exception, copy the business lettersof their husbands, fathers or brothers, at-tend minutely to the wants of the pooraround them, and even take part in theiramusements and sympathize with theirsorrows; visit and superintend tho schools;work in their own gardens; see to theirhousehold concerns; think about theirvisitors; look over the weekly accountsnot only of domestic expenses, but oftenthose of the farm and the estate; managepenny clubs in conjunction with theworking classes, to help them to keepthemselves; and with all these occupa-tions, by early hours, they keep up theiracquaintance with the litorature and pol-itics of tho day, and cultivate tho accom-plishments of musio and drawing, and of-ten acquire besides some knowledge ofscientific pursuits. The late Marchion-ess of Landsdowne was so well acquaint-ed with the cottagers in her neighbor-hood, that she used to visit and look attho corpses of the dead, because she foundthat her doing so soothed and comfortedthe bereaved. I have known her to shuthorself up with a mad woman in her poordwelling, who used to lock the door, andcould not he induced to admit any oneelse. Lady Landsdowne's only daughterused once one hundred guineas (given herby her father-in-law, Lord Suffolk, to buya bracelet) to build pig-sties, with hispermission, at her husband's little coun-try residenoe. She educates her ownchildren without assistance—teachi ng thoboys Latin and the girls all the usualbranches of education. The late Duch-ess of Bedford, I accidentally discoveredwhen on a visit to Moburn, had, for thir-ty years of hor married life, risen at sixo clock, summer and winter, lit her ownfire, made some tea for the duke and her-self, and then, as he wrote his own lettersof business, she copied them, and theycame down to a large party of guests atten o'clock, to dispense breakfast, with-out saying one word of their matutinaryavocations, so that you might have beena visitor in. the house without finding outthat the duke uud duchess had transact-ed tho business of the day—before, per-haps, you had risen ! I rather mentionthose that are gone to their reward thanwrite of women still amongst us; but youmay believe mo when I say I am con-stantly amongst thoss who live such livesof energy and usefulness, but they so en-joy themselves without ostentation, or anidea that they ara doing more than theirsimple duty;

Transfusion of Blood.Dr. Higginson, consulting surgeon to

the Liverpool southern hospital, has madeareport on one of the newest yet one of themost important branches of tho surgicalart. The cases in which tho lives of thopatients are imperiled by the loss of bloodare inrinito in number and variety, andtho proportion of the cases in which thepatient, even when hemorrhage hasbeen stopped, has been unable to take orassimilate food in time to replaco tho lifefluid, and has died from pure exhaustion,is lamentably large. The plan of sup-plying fresh, warm, life-endowed bloodfrom tho vein of some healthy person tothe drained and oxhausted system of thepatient seems to bo one of the readiestand most legitimate of remedies.

Dr. Higginson reports 15 cases whichhave been treated by himself, and inwhieh tho proportion attended with suc-cess is flatteringly large : and indeed, incases where tho operation was performedin time and where no complications exis-ted,—that is, where the danger threaten-ing urose from simple hemorrhage—theresult was invariably the saving of life.A large proportion of the cases treatedwere those of flooding at childbirth; butwo concoive that tho system would admitof wiHu »ppliout.ion in cases of exhaustionfrom amputation and other operations of-ten attended or preceded by serious loss ofblood. The difficulty, no doubt, is to pro-cure those who are willing and courag-eous enough to lose ten or twelve ouncesof blood ; but there are surely few per-sons so destitute of friends as not to findone willing to undergo snch an ordeal ina ease of life and death. Dr. Higginsonappends to his report a diagram of theinstrument he uses. It appears to besimplo and inexpensive, and certainly nosurgeon—especially when ho has a largeobstotrics praoticfi—should be withoutthat or similar means of employing trans-fusion in cases of imminent danger fromexhaustion.—Liverpool Mercury.

! of Lamps.The easiest way to clean petroleum

lamps is to wash with thin milk of lime,which forms an emulsion with the petro-leum and reino'vc3 every trace of it, andby washuig a soeond time with milk ofKme and a small quantity of chloride oflime, even the smell may be so completelyremoved as to render tho vessel thuscleansed tit fpi keeping beverages in. Ifthe milk of lime bo used warm instead ofcold, the operation is rendered lauehBhortor.

The best time for cleaning them is inthe morning, for reasons of safety, if notconvenience. Scarcely a week passes dur-ing the winter months but we read ac-counts of frightful accidents from keio-sene lamps exploding and killing or scar-ring for life women and children. A sim-ple knowledge of the inflammable natureof the fluid would probably put a stop tonearly all the accidents. As the oil burnsdown into the lamp, a highly inflammablegas gathers over its surface, und as theoil decreases the gas increases. When theoil is nearly consumed, a slight jar willoften inflame the gas, and an explosion isBure to follow, dealing with it death anddestruction. A bombshell is not more tobe dreaded. Now, if the lauip is not al-lowed to burn more than half way down,Buch accidents are almost impossible.Always fill your lamp in the morning;then you never need fear au explosion.—Jiural llmne.

Clovcr—How It Euriches the Land.Wo are afraid of clover. We are afraid

to grow it largely ; afraid to food it ex-tensively, especially as a main foed ; andafraid to plow it under.

This is wrong, very wrong. Wo areconstantly losing by not growing moreclover. Losing in many respects. Clo-ver, if we could only impress the fact onthe general farmor, is a plant that drawsfrom the atmosphere and enriches theland. Other plants do this, but clovermore. It has to do with the most vitaand important element in manure, uitrogen, tho very thing that is tho rarest anmost difficult to obtain. It improves thsoil by its roots alone, the crop used foother purposes; this, evon if a sood crois taken. How much more benefit, thenif a whole crop is turned down, containing so much nitrogen. And you havthe manure without working for it. Thplant works for itself and for you. Wget its strongth from a free source, the almosphere, the great storehouse whic'gathers from all sources, but most fromthe negligent farmer.

And you can make this plant work foyou on a poor soil, and almost any whenAll it needs is a start. A little manurapplied on the surface will do this; anif plenty of seed is sown, thore will bothickset. Then it" needs but a chancwith the atmosphere, and plaster will aithis greatly. Thero will, with warmshowers and winds, be a growth almossurprising. It will be dense, finer stemmod, and of fair length, depending somewhat on tho season. Cut this whenbegins to lodge, which will be about thtime when the blossoms appear, and thorwill be avoided all rot or mildew, consequent on long, coarse lodging, and thyield will surprise you—two and a half othree tons, and such hay as is not madfrom any other plant. And the. soconcrop will be nearly or quite as good atho first; the past year it was be t t e r -heavier yield, on account of* the showers

Now we have known, and that ingoodly number of acres, whero from six teight tons per acre wero realized in twcuttings, and a heavy aftergrowth foprotection. And this hay, fine steinmecgreen and tender, with the fragrance oits stalk and blossom unimpaired, rusliinupon you as you open tho hay, so greein winter, compared with other fodder—and this put before cattle, calves, horseand sheep' Homo will object to its usfor the horse; but we have tested thithing and seen it tested so much, that wknow whereof wo speak. "But clovealono—that all tho while ! "

This is the thought that always presents itself: Farmers are afraid to feecclover alono, or largely. Horsemen arshy of it, which still further discouragesBdsides, we have not carefully tested witgood clover hay, green and well curedwe feed the hard stuff generally, and thais worse than ripo timothy or straw. Whhas given groen clovor a thorough testcut in the full blush of fragrance, with aits substance available, including ithealth-giving influence—who has donthis and noted the effect compared witthat of other fodder, and for a suflicientime, say for months, or all winterVery few, indeed. Can any one whreads this bring to mind any cases ? Therare such, however, and they never gback to the old dead feed again. Thohave learned to keep stock without grainthat expense is saved them. Nov/ theistock is better, all things considered, thabefore; is stronger, nrmbler, healthierand there is more milk, and better growtof young stock. It is like keeping opasture during tho winter—bettersome respects—there is loss water. Bowels are perfect—in summer often too freereducing the animal. And during thmilking period, during the Fall anSpring, no grain is fed, no fodder is cutthere is a full quantity of milk, and itrich, making excellent cheese, and largely, but not so gocd in flavor for butter ais wished. This thing has been donewe know, is done, and will be done inorabundantly. Why not now engage in I—at least, test it fairly ?

Begin by preparing your ground welltho better you prepare it the better wibe your crop; if made quite rich andeeply mellow, fit to grow any grainthero will be a corresponding yield, uloss, and little or no risk. This is thbeauty of clover—you may rely upon iunless you wish to raise seed; then yomust understand your business, the details of which wo have no time here tpoint out. But as a forage crop, you arsafe if you get a start, a good catch, ancwith plaster you will get a good yielcnot less than four tons per acre from thtwo cuttings—there should always be twcuttings; indeed, it is imperative to goo<success, as this will give you tho hay, cuearly, in its green, tondor state, and leavtho roijts vigorous and pushing forwarcwith a continuation of the growth fothe third crop, the aftermath, which remains untouched for protection andstart in the Spring, this growth affordina large amount of fertilizing materiafor the next year's growth.—Live StoaJournal.

OLD AND NEW.—Mr. Becchor's Christian Union says a definition of tho differonce between "old school" and "newschool" has been given thus : " Tho children of Old School Presbyterians sin assoon as they aro born, and the childrenof New School Presbyterians as soon asthey know how."

The Gaulms newspaper this morningsays that King Amadous of Spain is dis-gusted with the ungovernableness of theSpanish people, and has urged his father,King Victor Emanuel of Italy, to sanc-tion his abdication. Tho Gauloitt furthersays that Emanuel counsels patience.
