last the Secretary of the Treasury was author

Although the power conferred is not limited, it
has been deemed best TO report to Congress, that

which the United States are bound 70 pay, without
being able 10 dispose of them at those rates.

amount 70 one half Of the rent stipulated in the
leases This would leave SO large loss, that It
IS submitted to Congress to direct what course
shall be pursued and, in the event Of perempto'

Daily Journal.

Yesterdaywe received ten additional sub,
scribers to the Daily Journal. The increase
of our subscription list, is the best eulogy the
Journal could desire-the only one we appre-
'ciate, after receiving the approval of good
men. There can be no better encourage
ment to an Editor, than to know that the pub
lie approve of his Iabors. He can only be-
lieve this by the gradual increase Of subscri-
bers. The compliments of mans best
friends are always suspicious the com
pliment of general and improving patronage
can never be doubted. We thank the public
for generally extending to US the latter com
pliment. Send in the names for Daily Tri-
Weekly or Weekly. The two latter papers
are intended for the country. The Daily
will be left for ten cents week, or SIS in adj
vance year, to subscribers in any part ofthe
city. For ten cents week. we give, to
spice all the news afoat, general miscellany,
telegraph dispatches, and everything of gen
eraI interest to the mass of citizens. So fork
over at once, without any more grumbling.

INTERNATIONAL OBLGATIoNs.--Th
sound public sentiment of the country, as ex-
pressed in the best journals throughout the
land, comes promptly and strongly up to the
support Of the administration in its firm main
tenance of the supremacy oflaw and the faith
of obligations, both OF which were threatened
with violation by the desperate invaders of
Cuba. If any querulous voice of dissatisfac-
ton is heard, it is heard only from organs
tangled out of tune, and harsh"
If there were no provisions of law to en-
force the observance of the reciprocal duties
of courtesy, amity and the recognition Of mu-
tual rights among friendly nations; if there
were no treaties recognising those duties, and
stipuIating for the performance of them; if,
for example, our statue books were blank on
the subject of international obligations, and
the act Of 1918 had never been posted-still.
notwithstanding such omissions, if it could be
supposed that such omissions were possible,
the necessary condition of civilization would
yet demand the suppression OF hostile aggres-
sions by lawless individuals, or organizations
IN any country, against the peace, the rights,
and the sovereignty of another country, in
times OF peace.-T Republic.

Romantic Marriage
JOHN 2. BAILET 7,
Vice CoRSuL.

The following romantic little affair proves
quite conclusively that when any man by the
name of Sanders is bent upon getting mar
ried, it is very difficult if not utterly impossi-
ble for the force Of Gil cumstances to present
hun. What then must he our personal con
gratulations TO think that no such desperate
resolve haunts us !!
A marriage took place at Cannelton, in this
State, between Mr.. John Sanders of Troy,
and Miss Elizabeth Allen about which the
Economist says ''there was bit of romance
Some three or four years since the now hap
Ply husband, then living in England sought
the hand of his present wife. Her parents
opposed the union. He left the country inn
mediately-camet to Troy-went to work like
an honest man-laid up his earnings, till a
sufficient sum was accumulated, then forward
ed the same, or an ample portion OF it TO her
! by which she was enabled 10 come to him in
this country. She arrived in Troy about one
month ago, expecting to be married immedi-
ately; but owing to the laws Of this State re-
curing months residence on the part of the
female in the same county, previous to the is
sue of the proper marriage license, they were
under the necessity Of extending the time o
their courtship for the space of about thirty
days, at the expiration of which time they
were duly married, and the joyful husband j;
well satisfied with the proceeds Of his money
investment"

IThe Heron Family is playing in Gin
cinnat. The city papers in putting, state
that this family played a long engagement
at Evansville, with remarkable success, and
that when they were about to leave, they
were requested by the Mayor and some of
the most prominent citizens OF the place, by
a written petition numerously signed, to give
little Agnes complimentary benefit! The
beauty of the thing is, that 1t is a fact'-
Their success araS remarkable-and SO was a
portion of their acting ~but the admirable
appreciation of both by the Mayor ard some
of his fellow-citizens was most remarkable Of
all.

A Costly BOTTLE OF WINE.-We can
not vouch for the fact stated in the following,
nor for the accuracy Of the computation ofln-
terest compounded quarterly. We merely
submit the item that is "going the rounds"
for the scrutiny of others:
"A bottle Of wine four hundred years old
was drank one day at President Tyler's table,
and a calculation was made of its cost, on
the supposj'ion that the price was half a dol
lar at the Inst, and that the interest on that
half dollar had been collected once every
three months, and also laid out at an interest
during the four hundred years by which
mode the principal would be doubled every
eleven years. The result was that four hun
dred years, compound interest on fifty cents
amounted to some $49, 100000"

Romance in Real Life.
BY LATHRIE TODD.


In New York, in 1896, my store was in
Maiden Lane, within three doors Of the store
of John Mowatt, an extensive dealer in shoes.
His foreman was John Pelsue, who sat behind
the counter, stretching shoes and waiting on
customers as they stepped in. One day a
corpse was found in the dock at the foot Of
the street. The coroner took the JuTyfnen
from the neighborhood; among them john
Mowatt and his foreman John Pelsne. The
corpse Law on the table in The centre Of the
room. Some of the iurymcn remarked that
as soon as John Pesue looked on the corpse
he started, turned pale and looked as II he
was going to faint. He rallied, however, but
his subsequent movements accustomed some
curious remarks. The jury having rendered
a verdict by drowning, were dlscharged.-
MoWatt turned to look for his foreman, but
behold he was not there. We stepped out
of doors, and saw him high up the street, on
a half run, when he quickly turned corner
/ All sorts of inquiries We're made, but nothing
could be heard of him. This, with his turn
ing pale at the first view of the corpse, occa-
stoned some strange suTmises among the ju-
rors for many days afterwards. John Now
att was bachelor of thirty five, and Pelsue
had seen about thirty summers.
On certain day about month thereafter
a lady in deep mourning stepped INTO Now
While John was trying how the shoes fitted,
the lady inquired:
you had man in your store, John Pei
sue by name-what has become Of him?n
Yes" said Mowatt, but what has become
Of him | would give a good deal to learn."-
He then related the story as above stated.
Strange" replied the lady. And you
have not seen him sinccW
"Y es you have seen him, replied the lady
81 certainly" said MOwatt, would not con
tradct lady of your appearance; but have
not seen him to my knowledge"
"Well, then, "said she, II un John Pelsue,
and the subject on whom we held the jury
was the corpse of my husband. My f;imly
name is Randall. | was born in Philadelphia.
| married against the wishes of my parents,
John Conner, a sober, industrious man, by
trade a shoemaker. We lived happily two
years. He took TO drinking, neglected lns
business and once struck me while in liquor.
We had no family. SO | resolved. while we
were stitching shoes together, to learn his
trade and leave hun. ! soon made passa-
bic shoe, when assumed the male attire and
came to New FORK. and YOU gave me EN-
ployment as journeyman The rest you
know" John told the present narrator some
days after, that on hearing this he was dumb
founded
/, ''Wel madam, y says John. what are
your plans for the future?''
II have not formed my plans"
swell" says John, 81 liked you as Il jour
neyman, and when foreman, | was pleased
!; suppose we go into partnership for lie ?"
In forty-eight hours thereafter they were
, married. She was fine looking woman
and might have passed for twenty five.
This perhaps. is the first instance on re
cord OF d weman's sitting as coroner's jury
man on the corpse of her husband. Til;
above is simple tale of truth. l was wit
ness TO all the facts.
