NEW SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
An unexpected obstacle to the holding of
the office of Secretary of the Treasury by
A. T. Stewart, having been developed,
various plans have been suggested for OBJ
waiting the difficulty A law Of 1898
precludes any one engaged in commerce or
navigation, from holding office under the
government. The repeal of the law was
suggested, but deemed inexpedient.
The idea was also entertained that
he would consign his entire business and
profits to three trustees, thereby relieving
himself from the legal prohibition. The
difficulty was finally obyiated by the re
linquishment of the Office by Mr.. Stewart

The adoption of the Fifteenth Consti-

The adoption of the Fifteenth Consti-
tutional Amendment, disallowing the
United States or any State to abridge the
right to vote, on account of race, color or
previous condition of servitude, will pro-
badly be adopted before the expiration
of many months. The wish decidedly
expressed by Gen Grant in his inaugural
for the adoption of the amendment, will
serve to remove all possibility of any OPP
position in any of the State Legislatures,
controlled by the Republican party. The
adjournment of the~Legislature OF Tenn
essee without action on the amendment,
may cause delay. Enough however, is
known to warrant the belief, that before
another political campaign shall occur,
the right of suffrage IN every State, will
be independent of race, color or previous
condition of serYitude.

Building houses of paper, is one of the
new novelties of the times which is com
ing rapidly into notice. The Rock River
Paper Company, is now manufacturing
paper which is used for weather board
ing inside walls and shingling. It is al.
legged that where this material is employ
ed in the building of houses, they are
much warmer and the cost one third less
than wood and plastering. 1t is predict.
ed that this new building material, will
bring about an entire revolution in the
erection of houses.

First Official ACT OF Gen. Grant-A Dele
gatisn Presents Bible.
The first business transaction of
, General Grant after his Inauguration
was the reception Of a delegation Of
the american Bidle Society who pre-
sented him with a magnificent Bible.
Chief Justice Chase made the presen-
tation, and Geo. Fl. Stewart read a
letter from the President Of the Ameri
can Bible Society, the concluding
paragraph, which is as follows:-
"The historical and necessary re-
lationS of oar civil and religious lio-
critics to truths Of sacred scripture is
self-evident, in nation whose insti-
tutions are dependent upon the NOR
ais of the people. In requesting your
acceptance of this precious volume
the managers expressed wish that
principles of truth and righteousness
may become the joy Of your heart,
the light of your home, and the pillar
and ground of your administration.
Be pleased, therefore, to receive it as
token of regard for the great Office
which you hold by the will of the
people, and in the providence Of God;
also the best wishes Of all who love
the Bible for your personal and do
nestle welfare, and for the successful
discharge of a common trust.
(Siened.l James Lcnnox, Pres.
The President responded, with
much feeling, that he thanked the
American Bible Society for their
beautiful testimonial, which he should
preserve as p precious heirloom, and
hand it down to his children.

uURT.-Ne were told yesterday, that
Mr.. Thomas II. List met with an acci-
dent on Sunday evening, near his resi-
dence in Centre Wheeling, which will
probably contine him to the house for
some time. Mr.. l.. was walking out
Just after dark on the evening named,
and when passing Martin Ditmar's
house, struck his foot against the box
in the pavement through which water
is shut off or let on from the street mains.
Totally interpreting such anoccurrence
Mr.. List was thrown down suddenly
and violently, injuring his back. Yes
terday morning he was suffering qnite
severely and being pretty we'll advanc.
ed in years his recovery will be pro-
portionably slow.
1t is said that the box referred to ex-
tends several inches above the pave
ment, and that others are to be found
in different sections OF the city in the
same condition. The necessity for
their rising above the surface is not APP
parent, while their dangerous character,
when it is the case, is clear to any one
who will thin k about it q moment.
We direct the attention of the proper
authorities to this matter, and trust that
they will speedily abate the nuisance
wherever found.

BURNED.-Yesterday morning ser
want in the employ of Mr.. George John
son, on Byron street, was severely
burned by the explosion of a can in
which was quantity OF kerosene OIL
She was kindling a fire in the stove,
and in order 10 make it ignite rapidly,
poured the tluid on the wood and coal.
The flame ran up the descending stream
and reaching the oil inside the can
an instantaneous and terrific explosion
was the result. The report aroused the
family, and when they reached the
room where the girl was they found her
suffering intense agony, and her cloth
ing entirely consumed. A physician
was Immediately called In, and she
was made as comfortable as the nature
of her injuries would permit. Several
deep burns were found on her person,
and it is feared that she may have in
hailed thei flame. If the latter prove to
be the fact, her recovery is extremely
problematical. 1t is strange, with al
most daily mention of such instances,
that the dangerous practice of using
kerosene for kindling fires will be per-
sisted in. Hundreds of lives are annu-
ally lost in the way above described,
and yet, apparently, the warnings are
unEeeded.

ATTEMPTED RoBBERY.-Two robbers
entered the residence Of Mr.. Allen, In
Bridgeport, on Sunday last, while all
the family but two little boys were abb
sent at Church, and attempted to make
a raid on the premises. The little tel'
lows instead of getting frightened de-
Tended their fathers rights of property
30 valiantly that the rascals were glad
to make their escape. And they DID
not stop when thsy had prevented the
theft. Information was given to the
proper authorities. and the would-be
thieves were arrested. We presume
they are now enjoying the inequalities
of the county Jail at st. Clairsville.
