delicate boy patiently waited with the anxious
crowd which had gathered in the room Of the
President. lie was noticed by Mr.. Lincoln,
who said, Come here my boy, and tell me what
you want The boy, trembling aud abashel,
stepped forward and placed his haud upon the
arm OF the chair in which the President was
seated, aud said:

that he had no home. Where is your father?"

My mother is dead also | have no father, no
mother, no brothers, no sisters, and bursting
into tenrs, the boy said, aud no friends,
Nobody cares for me- The scene was very

and he said to him. Can't you sell newspapers p
NO., said the boy, i am TOO weak, and the
surgeon of the hospital told me must leave
ana have no money, and no friends, aud no
place to 60 to-
The scene was indescribably tender and
affecting, AMI the President Immediately drew
from his drawer a card, on which he wrote his
wishes, that the oiiicera should caro- lin his own

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT MRRRIcK's FOugpRY.-
About eleven o'clock on Wednesday night n FIRE
broke out in the foundry Of the Messrs. Merrick
Sons, Philadelphia, which resulted in the
partial destruction of the premises, and the
valuable machinery and fixtures of the establish
ment. The foundry is situated on the south
side of Washington avenue. Ii reaches from
Fourth to Fifth Streets and rearward it extends
TO Federal street. On thblWashington front are
the offices and the storage rooms. On the Fifth
street side were the finishing shops, The fine
workmanship upon the castings, the finishing and
polishing, were done here. The paint shop,
pattern shop, aud the trimming shop were on th o
Fifth street row.
In the centre was the boiler shop. Here the
fire commenced. The shop was wooden, three
stories high, and was entirely consumed So
were all the works on Fifth street, and also
the immense heavy machine shops between the
boiler shop and Washington avenue. The offices
and the buildings towards Fourth street escaped.
The flames spread rapidly, and the fire at first
assumed such threatening appearance that a
general alarm was sounded but the fremen,
who came to the scene in great numbers, coniin-
ed the confagration to Fifth street, and saved
the remaining property.
The loss will probably reach 100000 1t Is
insured. The shops have been running on gov
ernment work, but the firm filed it's contracts
some time since, and had no manufactured ma
terial on hand. The fire will throw two hundred
men out OF employment, but the destroyed pro-
perty will be speedily rebuilt. All the valuable
machinery in the burned shops was ruiued.-
The fire spread so rapidly that nothing could be
taken from the blazing works.

them to proceed from the ordinary fallacy Of a

feeling on the subject and, among other obser-

ANDY JOHNSON SAYS THE DEBT MUST
BE PAID.


We hear that Andy johnson, who was born
poor, and raised poor, and is yet of the people
in his property and expectations, has given the
order for Retrenchment and Economy, and de-
clared that the Nation must go right to work 10
pay its Debts. Good
The National Debt has been ciphered up, and
the sum total is big one,-but the American
People is big one too. On the lst of July
next our Debt will foot up in round numbers
Three Thousand Millions. We eau pay it with
out strain, without oppression. We can pay IT,
and add to our wealth. But we have got to
practice economy, public and private. we have
particularly to apply economy and watchfuness
to the Legislation of Congress, and to the ad-
ministration Of the Departments and Bureaus In
Washington. The expenses of the Government
must be showed back rapidly and in good faith
toward the old peace footing Of 1860 We may
never again get quite to that,-but let US get as
near to it as we can.
The ablest statists in the service Of the Treas.
ury Department have been directed to measure
the wealth and resources of the nation, and to
calculate when it will be possible for us to paw,
and probable that we will pay, that immense
debt Of Three Thousand Millions. They have
reported that the ''bottom dollar" Of it can be
paid in ftCsnty years from 1901!

tics be-PAY OFF TIE NATIONAL DEBT

courts of that district. He will not, there
fore, be arraigned before the Military Com
mission now trying the alleged conspirators.
Some of the wicked editors are now APP
