Mr.. Walter Harper, gentleman who has
lived SO unostentatiously iii Detroit for several
years past as to be unknown outside OF his I'M
mediate walk in life, has conveyed in trust, to
George Dufield, G. B. Russell, A. c. McGraw,
]. S. Farrand, B. Wight, F. Bull, and D. Coop
er, real estate situated near Detroit and in
Philadelphia of the estimated value of 100000,
for the purpose of establishing Hospital for
the benefit of the sick and aged poor within the
limits or adjacent to the City of Detroit. -
When sufficient means have accumulated, the
Trustees are to connect School with the Hos
pital for the instruction of youth in the different
arts and trades, after the manner of the 'Fillen-
Surgh School, in Prussia. Would that Cleve-
land had its William Harpers.

Not a Law---Consistency.

The Dealer was jubilant "before out Of the
/woods - its boasted ''blow at oberiin" has
not yet been struck Its darling bill to prevent
.,persons reported to be in whole or in part OF
African descent from voting, and inficting
divers pains and penalties on such persons who
vote, on judges of elections, and on persons who
may electioneer them to vote, has not passed
the Ohio General Assembly. The last session
gase it the gO-by, and the present will probably
follow copy
The consistency of the Dealer on this subject
IS characteristic It hates free African blood,
no matter how much diluted by the Anglo Sax
on or other white races Itwould exclude from
the elective franchise all persons rePuted to be
in whole or in part of African descent, even if
natives of Ohio, and educated, intelligent, good
tax paying citizens. The editor of the Dealer
would ineareerate all such voters in the Peni-
tentiary, simply because God has given them
a skin not coIored like his own. And yet the
Dealer, and its party in the Legislature, are
fierce to add Seven Hundred Thousand Africans
and persons of reputed African descent to our
government by an expenditure of hundreds of
millions Of the public treasure, and would give
20 the owners of every three of them, many still
black and savage as when stolen from Africa, a
representation in Congress equal to one white
voter in 0hioi

The Kansas Gnld nIinn..

The published letters are generally favorable,
and the Kansas and Missouri river papers have
letters from gold-land nearly every issue
Thomas L. Golden, formerly of St. Louis, writes
under date ef January 9Th that the winter up
to that date had been mild and pleasant, only
two small snow storms having occurred. Game
very plenty, but sugar and coffee half dollar
a pound, and bacon forty cents. Gold, Mr.. G.
writes, is plenty. he has discovered mines
near Cherry Greek that will yield $50 per day,
when fully worked next spring AtOwn called
Arrapahoe City has been commenced, and
mining precinct laid off ten miles square, of
which Mr. Golden has been elected Recorder.
The ArrapahOe Indians had collected about
the mines, and their chiefs had ordered the
whites to quit the country. The miners num-
bered 700, and did not fear an attack.

TKE GROWTH OF ENGLISH IRoS MANUFAc-
TuREs.-Some interesting facts have recently
been published upon this subject. 1t is stated
that in l76O there were 81 furnaces in England,
the production of which was I5 900 tons of iron
in round numbers. In 1870. thirty years after
wards, the furnaces were increased to 80, and
the product to $4,000 tons. Twenty years af-
ter this, 1910, the furnaces numbered Is5, and
the product SO5, 900 tons. In 1880 there were
2l5 furnaces, and the product was zoo, 900 tons.
In 1855 (which was the last year of which we
have the statistics at hand) the furnaces num-
bered 746, and the product had run up 70 the
enormous amount of 4,5s5,OOO tons

Increase ftbe Free and slave states.


The Washington Republic very clearly shows
that the position taken by Mr.. Crawford, of
Georgia, in his recent speech in the House in
favor of the re-opening of the Slave Trade in or
der that the South can contend, with some hope
Of success, for the possession of the new Terri
tories, is faIlacious Mr.. c. after adverting 10
the constant additions made to the population
Of the North by free white immigration, insisted
that the importation of African laborers by the
South was necessary, as a counterprise.
Foreign immigration is by no means the chief
cause of the superior advance of the free States
in numbers. 1t has been an important auxiliary,
but the transfer of people from one class of
States to the other has produced the great re-
Suits Go through the free States of the North
west, and you will find the people of the Slave
States and their descendants scattered every
where, in many sections bordering the Ohio and
the Mississippi the large majority of the popu-
lation. This immigration has no return tide
1t ever sets westward, and mingles and becomes
homogeneous with the immigration from the
older free States and the Old World The
transfer of half million of people from the
slave to the free States, is equal in its effect up
on their relative position, to foreign immigra-
tiOn of two millions, of which the free States
should obtain the large dispvOpOrtiOn of three
fourths.
The gold discoveries within few years in
the free Territories have and will do much to
increase the disproportionate growth of the free
and slave States, and although Mr.. Crawford an
nounced Arizona as the next battlefield, it is
quite probable that the transfer of free laborers
from the Slave States to that land of gold viii
exceed the shareholders from the same States
The Republic very pertinently remarks;
It is not the North which is to occupy the
great West beyond Kansas. but the white pop
SiIaliap OF both the North and South, Just as it
was half a century ago with the occupation of
Ohio and Indiana. 1t is no question of battles,
or battle-felds, but case of harmonious and
peaceful joint occupation. If there has been
any battle about it, it has been between the
shareholders and white men who do their own
work, as well in Virginia and the Carolinas, as
in New England and New York. Indeed, if the
future IS like the past, greater portion of the
white people of Virginia and the Carolinas will
go into these new free Territories, than of the
New Englanders or of the New Yorkers. tbs
not the South which is to be excluded, but only
the Shareholders.

View York Canal Enlarremen,.

movement is being made in the New York
Legislature, which looks to such modification
oflOcks on the NY Canals as shall enable boats
of 300 tons burden to pass between Buffalo and
New York city. At present the longest boat
which the locks can receive is only sc feet
The alteration proposed will give 130 feet in
the chambers, and the change is estimated to
cost only 100000 for the Erie and 0swego
canals. It is stated that SO prOpellers are being
built for navigating the Erie canal next season,
and that with the proposed length of locks the
steamers hereafter built for the canal can navi-
gale the lakes also, and instead of stopping at
Buffalo or oswegO for transhipment, may pro-
coed, if found more profitable, to the other lake
ports without breaking bulk.

Washington Intelligence.

The special despatch of the 9Th to the Gin
einnati Gazette has the following items:
There is reason to believe that the Oregon
War debt has been purchased by bankers here,
and proof exists that while these claims have
been swelled to five or six millions, the whole
available personal property in Oregon and
Washington Territories at that time was not
more than half million.
Sherman's Committee may or nav not COM
plete its investigation this week. The report
will be divided under four heads, and probably
will be unanimous throughout, namely: l. Con-
tracts for live oak. 2 Navy Yards at BROOKLYN

4. Machinery contracts. The testimony is
damning to all concerned
Mr. Eustis, member of Congress from Louisi-
ana, is to marry Mr.. Corcoran's daughter, about
whom there was so much gossip last summer, in
connection with Murnsga, Spanish Secretary of
Legation.
Mr.. Phelps viii propose bill at the next
meeting Of the Way and Means Committee, to
extend the Treasury note act for twenty mil

By majority there, and it will certainly be de-
feated in the House. There is growing dispo-
sitiou to refuse appropriations until the Democ-
Tacy bring forward a scheme to revise the tariff
and provide a revenue for the extinction of the
proposed new debt.

The pougIas BaII--Mrs. pouaIas

The first entertainment given by Mr.. and
Mrs Douglas this winter took place few eve
nings ago. 1t was thronged and magnificent
affair, although the President and members of
the Cabinet absented themselves. A gOssiping
Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati
Gazette, thus writes of it and the distinguished
host and hostess:
have no faith in the little giant He is a
great nuisance to me. But have q heart full
of sympathy for Mrs. Douglas. How she has
struggled up through poverty and neglect, to
her present position; all the world knows -
How bravely yet quietly she faces this many
headed monster-small heads and no hearts
called Society; tames it down in her beautiful
presence, and makes it respect her and her rude
husband. 1 see-and my heart throbs with de-
light at her success.
L have not given myself space in this letter to
describe the hall. i wish l had. 1t was mag
nifcent The pslatial residence, palatial as to
size, was thrown open to the great throng of
beautiful women and well-dressed men that
crowded in. Save the East room of the White
House no apartment is so well adapted for such
purpose rs the largest room-the ballroom
call it-of Judge Douglas house. Having paid
my respects, l took stand near the entertain
ess. She looked queenly, as usual, dressed in
rich robe of white silk, trimmed with bou-
quets ofviolets. 1 was infinitely amused at the
way she recognized, and made hex husband re-
cognize every one as they approached. While
eonversing with one, she would see some other
approaching, and say for the Judges benefit,
There is dear Mrs. - coming; how lovely
she is;" and the Judge would speak to the
lovely Mrs -, as if she were his dear, long
lost auut, unexpectly turned up on that festive
occasion. By the by, the Judge is an apt schol
ar at that sort of thing, and had not his educa-
ton been SO miserably neglected, would have
made one of the most accomplished courtlers.
