An HERES KIDNAPPED.-The New
o.lean. News of the ID instant relates the
following:
A queer case of kidnapping has just tram
spired, and in some of its aspects it is highly
romantic. Chief of Police Cain several
days ago received telegram from DR.. Cessan
residing near Great Gull, Mississippi, to the
effect that his child, little girl ten years of
age, had been kidnapped by her uncle, John
Cessan. and that she was probably at that
t;me in New Orleans. Several detectives un-
dertook the search. but their efforts proved
unavailing. The only clue given in the dis
patch was that the child while in the imme-
ciate vicinity of her fathers house, had been
dressed in boys clothing, and would in all
probability be passed off as her uncle's son:
Ca Sunday the case was turned to special
officer Cunningham, and after heightened
search, he discovered they had been here. but
laf. day or two before for St. Augustine,
Florida. kilograms were sent to st. Angus
the. St. Marks. Appalachicola and Pensa.
cola, and on Monday the two were arrested
in the last named place by Marshal Nc.
Closkey. As the kidnapped child had
!. great deal Of property in her own right, 1t
Is supposed her grandmother, residing in
Florida, employed DIR. Cessan's brother to do
tae kidnapping.

The Reported Rothschild American Loan

From the London Telegraph, October lsth.l
If a telegram from New York be but
a shadow of truth, we may see in our
time one of the largest single financial
transactions that has ever taken place.
1t is said that Messrs. Rothschild have
offered the United States Government,
at four per cent interest, a loan suffi
cient to pay off all the national debt.
The amount of the principal is proba-
bly, even now abont $500, 900, 900 sterl-
ing, and the average interest is between
FIVE and six per cent; so that the Wash
ington authorities would, Of course,
gain by the transaction, though we
learn nothing about such important
payment of the principal. Unless the
Rotbschilds suggest perpetual con-
solidated stock, We hardly see their
advantage, as it is already open to them
to buy United States stocks in small
sums, and thus to obtain the present
rate of interest. Possibly the whole
story is e fiction, worthy of the inveu.
ton of the people who got up the Gold
room melodrama, and whose President,
General Grant, had to publicly declare
thar he had nothing 10 do with that dis
graceful speculation. In this country
we should be rather shocked if Mr..
Gladstone wrote to the press to an-
nounce that he bad not bought up tele-
graph stock just before the Government
decided on acquiring the lines. But
across the Atlantic, it appears, there
are other linen and other manners

DANIEL DREw.-The New York World
describing the scene in the ante room
of the Grand Jury's apartment, when a
large number of well known spectators
were assembled to answer subp9nas,
relates the following anecdote, as told
by one the bystanders, of Daniel Drew:
He is a sharp old fox, if he has en-
dowed theological seminary. know
lawyer who acted as referee in case
wherein Daniel was interested. The
referee gave An opinion very favorable
to Drew, and charged him $4,000.
Daniels face never moved. He paid
the bill and quietly remarked, "Mr-,
if you have no immediate use for this
money it might be very profitable if
you should invest it in such a way. !
do not advise you to invest; simply
say you nigh: make it very greatly to
your advantage" The attorney, who
supposed that Mr.. Drew was pleased
with the result, and satisfied with the
rather exorbitans fee, believing that
Daniel proposed to do him a good ser.
vice, went directly and invested the
$4,000 and a 81 900 besides as Drew
had suggested. In two days be lost
every cent. That is tbs way he got
even with the fellow for overcharging.

Bile CHANCES FOR A REPUBLICAN SENA.
roR-The Newark IN. J.) Courier,
commenting on the late election in that

lington, and Passaic will elect Republi-
can Senators, which will change the
political complexion of that body. In
the House we lose four over last year,

4 SIRocco.-The San Diego Union
chronicles the weather in the following
gorgeous strain:
TUESDAY, the 26th ultimo, brought
us an east wind more sirocco like than
anything we have before experienced
this season. Coming from the desert,
it searched and licked up moisture like
a thirsty demon. Housekeepers found
their doors warping, their new bread
becoming as dry as remainder biscuit
after voyage, and their watermelons,
cut for dessert, growing as sapless as
boys sponges in school vacation.
Storekeepers saw their salt and sugar
growing 'firmer' than the market quo
tations, and their straw paper cracking
like glass when folded around bundles.
Editors beheld their ink and mucilage
curdli3g, like cowardly blood, their
books for review warping in their COW
ers, like the judgment of their authors,
and their exchanges, even the dullest of
them, growing crispy. Everybody's
nervous membrane suffered disiccation,
and nose bleed and splitting blood be-
came the order Of the day among the
feeble. All things 'dried up except
domestic scolds and the whale that has
been blowing in the bay. Being sur
by a mass of water, which the
sirroceo could not possibly exhaust, he
probably defied its power and gave blow

such unpleasant day each month to

GEN. SPINNER, in his forthcoming re-
port, .akes the ground that all clerks
should be paid according to the work
they accomplish. This would give the
women an equal opportunity with the
men, and he thinks if such rule were
esta blished the women would make the
most money. The women, he says, are
especially expert in detecting counter
feits, and during the past week two fe-
male clerks in his Office detected several
counterfeit coupons, after the engrav-
ers and men clerks had passed them as
genuine.

The American Churchman, of Chicago,

MOTHER. Mother! speak the word
gently, breathe it tenderly, lest the
echo in rcverberation should lose the
melody of its sound. Around it are
enshrined thousand loves, clinging to
it in innate tenderness q thousand ties,
whose growing tendrils Irvine and clus-

its sweet repose.
Mother The name breaks upon the
stiffness, and its undulating tones bear
you gently back to the unforgotten
past. You recall every tender look,
every loving word, every act of that
mothers life that bound your heart to
hers with bonds strong as adamant.
Perhaps you were first to lisp the
name, first to catch life and breath
from the throbbing heart, first to
awaken the mother-love that went out
to you in all its strength and fullness.
Hold the name sacred, then, let no dis
