THE sCaoOL FUND.

In order to assist il the clearing up OF
the mystery surrounding the School
Fund, we have been at soms pains to
correspond with the officers Of Gen. Up
TONS stsf, who had charge OF its de-
livery to Gov. BRowNLOw, and from Maj
GILPIN, now residing in Winterset,
Iowa, learn that the boxes, kegs and
trunks containing it, weighed in gross
1900 pounds.
Now, if we adopt the calculations oil
the Southern Express Company, we End
that $40, 600 packed, weighs in gross l9l
pounds, and dividing the 1900 pounds by
tbs. amount (l9I pourds) it gives Us
within 3 fraction Of twenty-five times
$40 600, or 6579, 58l. This makes S267,-
$40 II more than it is claimed by the
UaloH and american was turned ever,
which may be accounted fer by the pres
ence in some q OF the boxes, OF The
books and papers Of the bank. As they
stand now, unexplained, these figures
make 2 showing anything but fatteriog
10 the honesty Of the officials who re-
eeipted to Nj. GmPIN for the 1895
pounds Of boxes and gold. Can the Press
and Times, which seems so anxious to
protect tie parties inculpsted il this
matter, explain this 1900 pounds Ct wood
ard gold, IN q way that will harmOBizs
with its allegations OF their honesty E?

GALVESTON, March Is From the
Brownsville Rancher0, of the 7th, we
get extracts from the Matamoras %
servadOr of the 9Th, which say that a
courier had just arrived, bringing tie
news of the defeat OF Vargas, who in
his blindness and courage, dared to at
tack Mortenz' position at SAM, and az
ter a combat of two hours, Vargas
shamefully Tetreated into the woods,
leaving the field covered with his dead.
Gen. Cortins vigorously pursued Vargas
into the woods. When the courier left
Vargas had been completely defeated.

NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, Jareh 16.-The HeTdld'S
Washington correspondent ssys it WIS
the Treasury ring and not the law Ct
1889, that ruled u Stewart. That law,
the correspondent says, has been a dead
letter on the books for years. 1t provides
that the Secretary of the Treasury shall
not purchase public lands or public Sc
curities, and yet the official records show
that Secretary McCulloch, since he took
the office, has purchased 70l0 acres CT
public lands. The correspondent also
insists that were it not for the. weakness
of some of the Presidents friends, WHO
ouailed bsfore the clamor of the Treas-
ury ring against the appointment OF
Stewart, t%wO-thirds OF Congress would
willingly have voted for the repeal OF q
law which has become obsolete and USE
less.
