KIT CARSON is thus described by a cores
pondent: Five feet six in his stockings,
deep-chested and squarely set, with the
slightest stoop of the shoulders, feet and
hands small, an oval face, very young look
ing for its fifty eight years OF care; light
blue eyes, gentle as woman's and clear as
a boys; the mouth we'll cut, but with
straight lines around the corners and the
appearance of having been made from a
harder material than the rest of the face 4;
the nose not remarkable, but the brow
broad, rounding and smooth. with thor
oughly Saxon hair falling to his shoulders,
and looking little thin on top and streaked
with threads of silver: moustache of the
same color was the only hair on his face.
He wore his Brigadier Generals uniform in
careless, half-Indian way that looked
very comfortable.

WISCONSIN ELEcrIoN.-The Republican
majority for Governor Fairchild is various
ly estimated from 5000 to 5000 at the recent
election. The Madison State Journal, Re-
publican, says it may be 5000, and cannot
fall below 5000. A State Constitutional
amendment, giving salaries to the mem
bers OF the Legislature, has been adopted.
The new Wisconsin Legislature will be in
the Senate 8 Republican majority, and in
the House 20 Republican majority; or %
majority on joint ballot. Last year the
Republican majorities were II in the Sen
ate, 46 in the House, and 81 on joint ballot

Who is Scared?

The Nep York Tribune, in its notice of
the attempt to nominate GRANT, says:
/" We object to the Grant movement that
it is of the nature of the Ostrich's simple
strategy, that deceives only himself"
We commend this extract to the kind
of the Dayton Journal whose edi-
tor says that the Democracy oppose the
nomination of GRANT, because they fear
him. We think the fear is on the other

THE ancient city of Frankfort has con-
ferred upon a lady the unusual honor of
citizenship. The recipient was Mademoi-
selle Pauline I.ucca, the celebrated vocal
ist. This lady has been giving concert
there, the proceeds of which were devoted
to the fund for rebuilding the Cathedral,
destroyed by fire few months ago. She
was received at the entrance of the concert
hall by the Archbishop of Mayence, and
the Municipal Council did the honors of
the town, comforting upon her, before her
departure, the citizenship of Frankfort.

The price of butchers meat, according to
the London papers, still keeps low in the
north of England. They state that the very
best legs of mutton and hind quarters of
lamb may be purchased at retail for IA or 10
cents pound, aud inferior parts for to II
cents. The wholesale sheep markets in that
section have not been so depressed for years.
Beef is firmer, but excellent meat may be
purchased at moderate rates in all the retail
markets.

More About the Erring Girls.

In our mention yesterday of the actions
of two depraved girls, who had hitherto
moved in good society in this city, one OF
them being teacher in the Second District
School, we were in error in saving that
they had been allowed to return to the
house of prostitution where they had been
found by detective Hazen and officer Petit.
Instead of being thus allowed to depart.
they were locked up in Ninth Street Sta
tion House, and yesterday morning were
arraigned before Judge Straub, in The Po-
lice Court, the elder being charged with
vagrancy and the younger with incorrigi-
bility. Against the former the charge
could not be sustained, but the latter being
only sixteen years of age, was convicted on
the testimony OF her own mother. and SEN
tenred to be imprisoned in the House of
Refuge until she became OF legal age.
After Court adjourned Judge Straub took
the elder girl into his Office, and gave her
some sound advice. She said that the
course of lite which she had chosen was not
one of her own liking, but she had been
driven to it by circumstances which it is
not necessary tor us to mention. She said
she wanted to reform, and on the advice of
Judge Straub, she consented to go to the
Home of the Frendless for few days, or
till suitable home can be found for her in
the country.-Cin. Gazette of Thursday.

The State Department, at Washington,
has made official publication of a conven-
ton of amity, commerce and navigation,
and for the surrender of fugitive criminals,
between the United States and the Domini-
can Republic. The convention is OF the most
liberal character, and one OF its provisions
is that free ships make free goods, and that
the property of neutrals on board of the
enemy's vessel is not subject to confiscation
unless the same is contraband of war. 1t
shall not be lawful for any foreign priva-
teers, who have commissions from any
prince or State in enmity with either ma
tion, to fit their ships in the port of either,
to sell their prizes or in any manner to ex-
change them, neither shall they be allowed
to purchase provisions except such as shall
be pecessary to their going to the next port
of that Prince or State from which they
have received their commission.

Taxes only One Thousand Million
-- a Year.

Taxes only One Thousand Million
a Year.
England used to be called, par excellence,
the tax ridden country, but the United
States, since the advent of Radicalism, as
serts her supremacy. The New York Her.
aid says: that the taxes are only thou
sand million a year for the whole country"
One thousand millions year, paid in
taxes by the people of the United States
Three hundred dollars for each man, wo-
man and child, white, black and copper
colored, in the whole Republic. To realize
the amount let any one having sufficient
leisure, attempt to count one million-a
half, or even a quarter million of dollars,
and when he has performed the task, or
approximated towards it, he can have a
faint idea of the amount, but not without.
This one thousand million dollars in
cludes, we presume, the taxes for national,
State. county, city, town, township, poor
and other purposes, which require the SER
vices of tax-gatherer.
Except mere income tax, the men who
have placed their money in Government
bonds, pay no tax. They are the tax
gatherers, and, although they receive from
Government a higher interest than the
men who loan money in Ohio dare charge
without being liable to loss for taking
usurious interest, these cormorants claim
that these bonds must be paid in gold, thus
adding one-third to one-half on their
value, for the privilege, we suppose. of
paying little or no part of the 81 900, 100000
paid by the industry of the country.

Fraudulent Voting i'm New York

When New York city gave her majority
of over e1,0O0 at the late election, all Rad
icalism was convulsed, and its organs had
labored leaders to prove, that great frauds
were committed in the elective franchise.
We do not doubt it.
Every voter in New York has to be reg
istered. The board of registry, in pursuance
of the policy of Radical Legislation in that
State for some years past, to take from the
people all power and to put it in the hands
of the Government, is composed of Radi-
cal politicians, who govern the Metropoli-
tan police. If the election had been a fair
one, the majority might have now been
over 10000, instead of but 81, ,160.

TIE true value of Mscbinery applied to W atch--

few people know why aWaltham Watch should be
superior to sny other In the first place. at Walt
ham the Watch is regarded only machine, to
be constructed like any other machine, on mechan-
ical principles. If the Watches good it is be-
cause the machinery is good. OF course there
must be no defect in the principle plan of the
movement-no mistake in the sizes shapes Of
the pieces Of which it is comrosed-nothing want
ing IN their properties and no error in their posi-
tions. These points once thoroughly settled,
rests wholly with the machinery constructed with
infinite diversity Of form and function expressly
for the purpose. to produce the finished pieces By
means OF multiplying guages and microscopes test is
and inspection for the detection of we in the cut

are made to accompany the work in every stage
from beginning to end. As q necessary result, the
Watch goes together q perfect machine. Every

pin may be pushed till it pnches. and every screw
turned home. Instead of sluggish and feeble ac-
tion the bal ance. even under the pressure of the
ightest handspring. vibrates with wide an free
motion. and the beat has the clear ringing sound
always characteristic of the Waltham Watch. The
machine is a timekeeper from the start.
