II. P Revel, the eolored Senator eioct Irom

ma, as first stated. He is graduate Of Ober-
lin, and was educated for tho Methodist nj

A new explosive OF great power is annoaRc-
ed by English journals under tho naIno Of am
monia powder. Analysis shows merely a sub
stitute Of nitrate OF ammonium Tor nitrate Of
potash in ordinary gInpowder, the change ad-
ding immensely to the explosive force. Tic
salt being quite dcliIuescent, the old adogc,
keep your powder dry" would lose its signi-
icaneo should this powder come into general
use.
The report is renewed that England Is ready
and willing to part with her Canadian pro-
vinecs on easy terms, and would be glad 10 use
them as small change in settling the Alabana
claims with US, Minister Thornton, 1t Is said,
is prepared to act on this basis. 1t is indis-
putably true that the people of the provinces
are decidedly inoculated with the desire 10
come under our flag and cast their lot with
Us. General Grant takes great interest in the
question, as is well known; and tho prophecy
is out that the acquisition of Canada and tie
British Possessions viii constitute the crown
ing act Of his administration.
Wallace, the Gle, Gland forgor. who was in
tecepted at Meadvilla by telographic DIS
patch, and returned to Cleveland, says that
for several years, he has been the astenslbie
owner OF $4,000 worth of property but al
heavily mortgagcd, and that he has been
greatly embarrassed for funds lie claims
that the principal cause of his money troubles
was the fact of his carrying heavy life insu-
surlnce policies These poliicesy upon lis
own life, amount to $4,000 and those upon
the life Of his fother $2450O Tho premiums
upon them aggregate about $1,000 per year.
He states that the amount of his liabilities
is about $4,000 and thst aside from his
insurance policies he has not sufficient proper
ty to meet them. 1t is thought that the insu-
r,rnco policies will be divided among the orodl-
tors.
An important medical operation was per-
formed, by Dr.. Weber, OF Cleveland, on tke
20 inst. a boy ten years OF age, swallowed 8
large bean, and at once began 10 experience
the most intense pain. The child was imme-
diately taken to the operating rooms Of Or.
, Weber, who upon examination found that tie
bean had passed down out of the windpiTe
into the opening that leads to fhe lungs, ard
, there stopped. Or. Weber began the opera
ton by making. a longitudinal inicision in the
neck Just below the Ponaun, .4dami commonly
called Adams apple. He then passed an IN
, strument down through the incision, drew TIE
bean up, and pulled 1t out with pair OF for
ceps. The child presented every appeaTan, 0
of a lifeless corpse. The incision was held open
By two hooks and by pressing on the childs
chest the air in it was driven out, by pressing
on the sides beneath the arms and relieving
the pressure on the breast, air was drawn in
through the aperture. BY thus establishing a
mechanical passage OF air the child was return
ed to consciousness.
Mr. Sumner has given his mind to the solu-
ton OF the financial and monetary question:
We know of no member of Congress or OF the
administration who has any ground for claim
of higher financial genius or performance. His
scheme, though we take exceptions to some OF
its features, is at least as good as any that has
been introduced. He lays down one principle
at the start, that all rational men must assent
to; this is the immediate reduction of taxes,
and the spreading Of the payment OF the delt
over other generations. By excessive bur
dens we kill the goose Of golden eggs; wli.e
by tightening taxes, we enlarge the basis cf
our revenues, and thus reduce the proportion
of cur debt He shows that lbe war cost, be-
sides the debt, was 6,3nJ millions. The pre-
sent generation contributed that. 1t has the
right to divide the rest with other generations.
With the increase of our national wealth, the
proportion of the debt diminishes, and thus,
by our natural progress, relative reduction
OF the debt is going on. But every tax is a
burden upon production, and every abatement
of tax iberates industry and expands the
basis of our revenues. Mr.. Sumner argues
with much force In this We are confident
he has the country with him. Mr. Sumner
shows that our increase in material resources
is 50 per cent each decade, which IS rapidly
diminishing the proportion Of the debt There
fore, he argues for policy that viii allow our
resources to grow, instead of GRIPPING them
by a spasmodic attempt at immediate pay
