IIoN. MILO NJ. DJNNICK.

Hon. MILO N. DIMMICK, of Monroe
county, in this State, it is said has al
ready been recommended. and is likely
to receive, one Of the prominent Offices in
one of the new territories to be organized
under the Nebraska iniquity. Mr., Dim
mick represented the Northampton Dis
trict for four years in Congress, and was
last fall the Democratic candidate for
President Judge of the judicial district
composed Of the counties of Carbon,
Monroe, Pike and Wayne, but defeated
by the Hon. James NJ. Porter, who was
brought out as a volunteer candid ate, and
elected By large majority, though not a
citizen of the District.
Mr.. Dimmick is man of very moder-
ate abilities, but a clever, and, as far as
we know, honest and upright gentleman.
Having been defeated last fall in the OLD
Democratic Tenth Legion BY his own par
ty is of course rather a recommendation
in his favor in The eyes of this week and
imbecile Administration, and we have no
doubt therefore he will be taken care Of
by them. 1t seems rather queer to US,
however, that probable appointments for
these territories should be announced e.
ven before the Nebraska iniquity is fully
cousummatad by having the Presidents 5
signature affixed to the bill. Those un.
charitably disposed will be very apt to
suspect that Mr.. Dimmick's appointment
was part of the consideration which pur-
chased some OF the votes Of the Penusyl-
vania delegation for the bill, Perhaps
the Hon. Asa Packer, the representative
from Dimmick's district, can throw some
light upon the subject. Or is msum the
word with him?-Daiiy Nc1rS

Depredations on the United States Mint
Disclosed.

Within the last few days evidence has
come to light that extensive distractions
from the funds on deposite at the Phila.
dclphia United States Mint have taken
place, and of such a character as to in
vol7e the reputation Of an heretofore up,
right and irreproachable citizen. Upon
the chief weigh-clerk of the Mint, Mr., j
Engle Negus, devolves the responsible
duty of receiving, weighing, and describ-
ing the bullion deposited, and of giving a
receipt for the same before it is melted
OF course its value cannot be ascertained
until it has undergone the melting pro-
cess and all impurities and foreign sub
stances have been removed Between
the times Of depositing and of melting,
therefore, an opportunity was afforded to
an evil-disposed person, unless he was
properly guarded, to abstract from the bull
lion committed to his care. The chief weigh
clerk was noticed by one of his assistants
to be frequently in the vault, (Which he
entered by means of a duplicate key,) for
which there was no occasion, but his os-
tensible object might have been to secure
curious specimens for preservation. AT
length suspicion became SO confirmed
that another clerk in the office, and final
ly a superior officer, was communicated
with on the subject The evidence of
wrong afforded seemed incredible; but
the next step taken to elicit the truth was
conclusive in its results. Upon the ar
rival of the last California steamer. at
which time, as is invariably the case,
great quantities of bullion are forwarded
from New York to Philadelphia by the
various express companies, &C., the treas
urer arranged, after the chief weigh clerk
had made his deposites for the day and
weighed the same, to repeat the process
of weighing, and deficit amounting to
81 400 was disclosed. The guilty per-
son, after being informed Of the facts, i'm
mediately confessed his crime, acknowl-
edging that his depredations had been
continued for six months past, and that
he had taken altogether sl4, 900; but of
fered to make immediate restitution,
which he was able to do, as he was pos
sessed of considerable property. This
fact, in connexion with his previous char
acter, makes the present offence the more
inexplicable. The offender took passage
for Europe at the earliest opportunity,
and sailed in the Washington last Satur
day.-JournM Of Commerce.

To fix Carpets on Floors.

The labor that housekecpers have eve-
ry spring and fall, of taking out and put
ting in tacks when they raise their car
pets for busting, should have suggested a
much more convenient aad simple plan
for eRecting the job. In soue places
small rings are fastened into the floor
The edges of the carpet, or the binding,
have hooks sewed or otherwise fastened
in, and the rings serve as eyes to these
hooks. All the labor required in taking
carpets up, or putting them down, is to
bitch these hooks to the rings or unhitch
them. There is no noise of hammering,
no nails required, and the job is work Of
but few minutes.

The First Fruit of War.

A letter from the Rev. VIM. G. Shauf-
fer, of Constantinople, draws melan~
choly picture of the distress which the
Eastern war has already oceasioned a.
mong the poorer classes of Constantine
pie. He says that there is no commerce,
no business going on, but little money to
be seen, and thousands of human beings
are dying of hunger, thirst, nakedness
and disease. Rats and mice are eaten
by many to allay the cravings of hunger,
and people who but few months since
were comparatively rich in worldly goods,
now beg for bread.

British " Consols." q"

As many persons do not understand
what is meant by consols," which are
always prominent article in the English
money quotations, we give the following
definition from the Bankers Magazine:
"They are three per cent. English
stock, which had its origin in the act Of
the British Parliament, consolidating
(hence the name) several separate govern
ment stocks called in the act consolida-
ted annuities," and commonly quoted for
brevity, "consols." When the eonsolida-
tion took place, the principal Of the sew
eral funds thus merged amounted to &C.
l27, ,82l, but, by the funding of addition
al aud subsequnt loans and parts of loans
into this stock, it mounted, on the 9th OF
January, 1886, to e356,769,228. Since
that period only one loan has been raised
that for compensation to West India
planters in the en- ancipation of slaves
G22, 700, ,00O-aud a few millions have
been paid off, The total in January,
1s49, was G317, ,s24,681 English debt,
and G6, ,194,s ,s74 Irish debt, out of a total
debt of G772, ,4O1 ,s5l sterling. The
stock, from it's amount and the immense
number of its holders, is more sensitive
to its financial influence than any other,
and is, therefore the favorite stock Of the
operation of spectators and jobbers. Its
dividends are payable semi-annually."

Boston Riot.

Fngitiue S1ave Case and Raot an Boston
THE Master arrested and held to ball.
Atenlpt to rescue the fugitive. United
States Officer Shot, The Boston MiH-
tary ordered OM.-IXe Rioters Ar
raigned.
On Friday last colored man by the
name of Anthony Burns, alleged to be a
fugitive slave from Alexandria, Virginia,
was arrested and lodged in prison at
Boston. Chas. F. Suttle, the claimant,
was arrested the same day for an attempt
to kidnap citizen of Massachusetts, and
was held to bail. On Friday evening a
meeting was called at Faneuil Hall, where
demonstrations and speeches were made
expressive of their indignation at the bold
attempt that had been made to capture
one of their citizens. The most promi-
nent Of the speakers were Rev. Theodore
Parker and Wendell Phillips, Esq. The
crowd dispersed from the Hall and made
an attempt to rescue Burns, by breaking
open the Court House doors. Clubs, pis-
tolls, guns and other deadly weapons were
freely used, and one James Bachelor,
who had been employed as United
States officer, was shot dead.
The officers finally succeeded in quell,
ing the riot and kept Burns in safe Gus
tody. Burns had his hearing on Satur-
day morning. During the trial but few
persons were admitted into the Court
House and military guard was kept
standing in the vicinity.
Parker and Phillips made application
to the Mayor to station body of Police
about their residences to protect them
from a mob of Irishmen, who had
assembled to avenge the death of Bach
elder. Those gentlemen are denounced
by several citizens of Boston as being the
cause, through their infammatory speech
es, of the death of this unfortunate young
man.
The recent passage of the infamous
Nebraska Bill, has no doubt, been the oc-
casion of the bold attempt of the freedom
loving citizens of Boston, to infringe and
wholly disregard the laws of the United
States.
