THE speakers at the Republican meetings
in Ohio and elsewhere are coming out bold
ly in favor of exempting United States
Bonds, held by the wealthy and aristocratic,
from State, county and municipal taxation.
John Sherman and Robt.-C. Schenck (the
great gun and brass piece of the Republican
party In that State) are using arguments to
satisfy the people that they should submit
to such national swindlfngI The idea Of a
pair Of Republican demagogues trying to
reason the people into the, belief that they
should pay ali the taxes, and let the hold

Suicide Of British Ofiicer who Owned
~ Southern Bonds

From the London Court Journal. July 1861
Major e B, formerly of the
Fifth Dragon Guards, and gentleman
of very extensive acquaintance in LODI
don society, has put an end to his exist
ence by blowing out his brains at his
lodging. in May Fair. The details OF
the unhappy occurrence are. very pain
full. If our information be corrects the
deceased derived the principal part OF
his income from property invested III
the Southern States of America. The
effect of the late war upon such proper
ty has, of course, been disastrous, and
on Tuesday last letter was received by
the deceased which probably had grave
reference TO such q calamity since 1T
causedgreat disquietude. On that al
ternoon he appeared at the shop OF a
well known gunsmith in Bond street,
where he was in the habit of occasional
" dropping in. He is described as
evincing precisely his usual demeanor,
neither elated nor depressed, and after
conversing casually upon the ordinary
topics of the day, he asked to look at
some revolvers, and ended by purchas-
ing small one with five chambers,
which he paid for on the spot. From
that time nothing especial seems to have
been remarked about him; but on Thurs
day afternoon it is reported that he paid
few visits to houses where he was par
ticularly intimate, and, in some cases,
made little presents of jewelry. He re-
turned to his own lodgings, where, very
shortly afterwards, the other inmates OF
the house, being startled by the report
of firearms, rushed to his room, and
found him ghastly spectacle, but quite
dead. 1t appears that he had loaded
| all the five chambers of the revolver,
had placed the barrel in bis mouth, and
had blown the back part of his head
completely away. Even this dreadful
event was fated TO receive an additional
aggravation. Though it was obviously
useless, the medical gentleman who
usually attended him, and was private
friend, also, was instantly sent for. He
found of course, that all aid was out O
the question, and was retiring, mucl
| agitated, from the house, when, to hi:
horror, he found driving up to it ths
sister and niece of the deceased, whS
were arriving to pay him visit. The
necessity of some explanation and thu
painful scene that ensued, may be easily
conceived. The deceased was very wei
known in the upper circles of Londor
society, and used considerable influence
among them in the furtherance of char
liable institutions, to which, moreover
he devoted much time and personal ex
ertion. i-.a.-se ,-#r

as From the New York Woriu aug 81
On Monday last a German named
Lantz, accidentally fell off the high
rocks at Bulls Ferry, N. j., where he
lay three days before being discovered,
having broken one of his arms and a
leg and receiving such internal injuries
that he died on Thursday morning. 1t
appears that he had only been in this
country about two months and could
not speak word of English. On Mon
day last he made the acquaintance of
another German, who induced him to
go to Guttenburg to look for employ
ment, stating that he was out of work
himself, and that there was anssopening
for both of them at the above named
place. They crossed the Forty-second
street ferry and proceeded to Gutten-
burg, they visited several lager beer
saloons, and drank quite freely antz
lost his friend, and wishing to return
home, started as he supposed, in the
right direction for the ferry, but it APP
pears that he went in the opposite direc-
ton. The result was that he soon
reached Bulls FERRY. where he tried to
descend to the river road. Finding the
rocks were steep he continued along the
edge for some distance until he came
| to where the rocks were one hundred
feet high, when he accidently lost his
| foothold and fell off, being precipitated
about seventy feet below, landing IN a
small crevice in the rocks, breaking his
arms and legs, and receiving internal in
juries. In this condition he lay uncon-
scious from Sunday night to Tuesday
morning when ne revived, suffering in
tense agonies. He tried TO crawl out,
but found himself too weak, and in fact,
so badly injured that be could not get
off his back. He tried to call but
couldn't make sufficient noise to attract
| attention. He lay all day Tuesday with
the broiling sun pouring down upon
him. Tuesday night and nearly all day
| Wednesday he remained in the same
condition, unable to obtain assistance.
On Tusday evening Mr.. Prindle, re-
siding near by, heard a very singular
noise, but gave the matter no serious
attention. During the night he awoke
and heard the same- noise, and finally
called his wife's attention to the matter.
They, however, fell asleep, but in the
morning the same noise was heard.
Mr.. Prindle fearing some accident had
happened to some animal, communities
ted the fact to two of his neighbors,
| Mr.. Thompson and Mr.. Roach, when
all three started up the rocks to as
certain. if possible, the cause. They
had, however, got but short dis
lance when they came to where Lant2
was lying, He was sensible but very
feeble. and stated to them how long he
had been there. They Immediately
took him out and conveyed him to Fort
Lee, where the only medical attendance
could be procured. Everything was
done for the unfortunate man, but he
died the following morning. The cor
oner was notified and held an inquest,
but no clue could be ascertained of the
whereabouts of his friends. He had Oh
his person silver watch and nearly two
dollars in change. He was about thirty
wears of age.

wears at times the famous green goggles,
but there is not the need for them now
that there used to be. During his rule
at Richmond, the constant strain upon
his eve wore upon it, and il was the
opinion of his best and most intimate
| friends that he would eventually lose
sight altogether. ibis is changed for
the better. Regular hours, much sound
sleep, almost total abstinence fron1wear
and tear, are doing much for his health
generally, and very much for his eye
sight. His carriage is still erect. His
hair is changing color, his cheeks, al
WAYS sunken, are now covered with "a
| light beard, making him look fatter and
sounder, his physique is in good repair,
his limbs are firm and his step square.
OF his mental condition, it is more
difficult to speak. He is as eager for
books, for mind food, as he is for the
substantials needed by his &body.-ssNat-
urally nervous, years of ill health have
made him irritable. Other years of abb
solute power made him impatient, and
trouble seems to have made him queru-
lous. Still he sleeps like top. He
retires early, and sometimes never turns
till morning. Ii the people who write
| lsbored editorials about the treatment
of Jefferson Davis" could contrast his
appearance with that of thousands who
barely escaped starvation and death at
his hands, they would be compelled to
keep quiet or change their tune.
| Nor is it true that he has been denied
the privileges of an occasional walk, any
more than is the story of his near APP
preaching dissolution compelled a
change of programme. Gen. Miles, a
prudent, efficient officer, has been IN
charge of the prisoners person and
health. He is, in fact, held responsible
for him by the President and Secretary
of War. At frs, before the excitement
of capture and confinement wore away,
il was deemed best that he should be
kept quietly in his ample room. Since
then. however, at various times, at the
suggestion of the General or of Davis,
as the case might be, they have walked
out upon the ramparts in the cool Of
the early evening. and shifted the fresh
air together. With Gen Miles, Mr..
Davis has ever been courteous and de-
corous in his bearing and conversation.
There is no reason why he should not
be, for SO far as the externals of lie and
society go, he is as proper a person as
can be found in a days tramp. The
heat having become intense at the fort
Gen. Miles has made these little excur
sions more frequently, and with great
benefit to his mental and physical con
dition.

England and the Rebel Press--Liyerp0oj

The Washington correspondent of The

"From unofficial, yet unquestionable
sources, 1 gather the following interest
ing facts, worthy to be known in COM
mercial and political circles: The course
of the English government, alike con-
sentative and tory, since tho overthrow
of the rebellion, has been unaccounta.
bly, malignant. and is only to be ex-
planned by the fact that all sides, except
the liberals alone, are disappointed that
the fates had not otherwise decreed.
''On the 18th of July, the ship Anne

IA, 600 bales of cotton, valued at present
prices at $160, 000-belonging TO the

The Pirate Shenandoah and cur Whale
Fleet-VesseIs Destroyed by Her.
Iron the New BEDFORD Sstanda

This is more severe blow than New
Bedford has experienced since the Brit
ish invasion and destruction of the ship
ping and business part of the town In
1888. 1t took many years for the place
to recover from the effects of that wan
ton raid, and now our city being on the
decline, this second act of British van
dalism is doubly severe.
We may reasonably expect, however
that the present season will see the last
of such piratical disasters to the whaling
business, and our merchants be exhibit
ing a renewed spirit of enterprise, may
do much to retrieve the past. Let the
full number of vessels be Immediately
fitted for the fishery, and We may con-
fidently trust that before they arrive on
the cruising grounds the pirate will be
among the things that were. In conse-
quence of the news whale oil is going
up, and this should be an additional in
centive to embark in the business.
Some months ago communication
was addressed by Messrs. Williams &
Haven, of New London, in behalf OF
the Pacific whaling interests, to the
Navy Department, setting forth the
danger of the fleet being attacked by
the Shenandoah, and answer was re-
ceived that several naval vessels were
then in the Pacific Ocean, and others
were on their way to join the squad
ron, and no danger need be apprehend-
ed. Many war risks have been cancel
led by the owners of vessels on this as
surance of safety. Still there is no
available force now at hand to cope with
the pirate. The present wholesale de-
struction of vessels will doubtless incite
the government to do as much as to
lock the barn, now that the horse has
been stolen, and we have confidence
that the Pacific will In few months
swarm with our cruisers, and the pirates
| will either be driven from the seas OF
run up at the yard arm.
The total value of the vessels belong
ing to this port was $237, 900, and the
425. War policies had been cancelled
and ceased by limitation, amounting t.
about $50, The Mutual Marine and
Pacific Mutual Offices had no war risks
ON any of the captured vessels.
There is much excitement among oul
merchants and at the insurance offices
and no more war risks will be taken OF
