I.--United States Bonds,

Having thirty years to run and bearing six per Gent
currency interest at the rate of Si6oeO per mile for
517 miles the Plains; then at the rate of per
mile for l5O miles through the Rocky Mountains; then
the of 1900 per mile for the remaining dis
tance for which the United States takes second lien
as security. The interest on these bonds is paid by
the United States Government. which also pays the
company onehaf the amount of its bills in money for
transporting its freight, troops mails etc. The re
naming half of these bills is placed to the companys
credit, and forms sinking fund which may finally
discharge the whole amount of this lien. The claims
against the Government since AprA of the current
year amount TO four and onehalf times this interest

pand. Everything, therefore, looking towards
this great end, should receive our warmest ap-
prOval, and be met by the most liberal
advances on the part of the people. 1t Is a
duty which all good citizens owe to the state
TO lend their oountenance to all plans for
educational advancement, and with the exhi-
bition of public spirit evinced by the grant
ing Of this needed appropriation and its proper
expenditure, we detect the commencement Of
new era, bright in its prospect of wide difFu-
sion Of learning among the masses Of the
people.

necessary 10 subject everything TO taxation, in
order to support gigantic standing armies in
times of peace as well as of war, the ex-
perienoe of successive generations has de-
velOped a system Of appointments which has
now reached perfeotion and it is but seldom
that we hear Of peculation or fraud on the
part of revenue officials. In the selection Of
these officials politics are entirely ignored,
regard being paid solely to their business
qualifications and integrity of character. They
hold their positions, moreover, for life or
during good behavior, and have thus before
them the strongest incentive to uprightness in
their official dealings with the Government
and the people. Feeling assured of an honor
able competence so long as they shall remain
faithful to their trust, they are enabled to per-
form their duties on strict business principles,
and it is very rare, indeed, that they are
tempted to step aside from this straightfor-
ward course of dealing. If such a system
were adopted in this country, we have
enough faith in the superiority Of our republi-
can institutions over all the despotisms of the
Old World, to believe that it would be crowned
with success. First let our tax list be reduced
to the minimum, and make corresponding
reduction in the army of assessors and collec-
tors; and then reorganize the whole revenue
department on the basis of the civil
service of Europe, and both Government
and people will be gamers by this
radical revolution. No man should receive an
appointment who is not beyond reprOach as to
character, and, as test of his business capa-
city, able to bear off the palm from all compe-
titors at a thorough and impartial examina-
ton. If it be found impracticable to place the
| appointing power in the hands of the Execu
tive Department, let it be entrusted to the
Federal Courts, the judges of which, as a rule,
are beyond the reach of political and personal
influences. If we can repOse any faith in
Washington specials, a recommendation to
this effect will be made by Mr.. Wells in his
report to Congress, and we hope that it will
receive the favorable attention of that body.

The Mad stone.

Whatever may be said regarding the quail
tiles Of the mad stone, certain it is a great
deal of confidence is reposed in it, and lis
application is resorted to with wonderful re
suits.
We have a case in hand. The party is a
lady by the name of Adamson, from the
vicinity of Uniontown. Kentucky. On Sun
day Q3th) rabid dog entered her house
and made a fer0cious attack upon child,
her daughter, who escaped harm through
the lady's interpostion. but she was herself
bitten on the finger. Knowing the dog to
have been rabd, she accepted the company
of friend and repaired to the residence of
Mr.. Carlos johnson, in Warwick county. In
this State soon after, TO avail herself OF the
medical properties supposed, and by some
believed, to be possessed by stone, so call
ed, in that gentleman's possession. The
mad stone was not on the premises at the
time, having last been used in this city IN a
similar case with perfect success. She then
came to this city, and the stone was yester-
day applied to her finger at the hotel where
she is tarrying The stone immediately y
adhered with the tenaeity Of a leech. and
then fell off, as is supposed. only when the
poison was absorbed, or the pores filled with
excrement drawn from the wound. This
stone was originally brought from England,
and is of the appearance Of booe, or rather,
pumice stone, being porous, and of a grey
ish color. When the mad stone is applied
and kept on the wound for short period. it
is taken off aud boiled in sweet milk. and
again applied
Those who have had the stone applied, as
sert that it produces peculiar feeling as if
under some electric influence.
Mrs Adamson has been suffering with
the pain of suspense, not knowing what
would be her fate but now she feels much
more cheerful and confident.
As soon as this case Is satisfied. two
children. lately bitten by the same rabid
dog viii have the stone applied. They are
awaiting its use.
We believe physicians generally do not
admit the efficacy Of the mad stone, yet its
successes stagger the unbelever Surely
there is something very remarkable about it.
hundreds of terrible denths are, to all ap-
pearances. avoided by its use. Is this
another proof of the mind over matter, or is
