D6~The plague at Buenos Ayres is ac-
counted for by the fact that the city stands
upon mass Of corruption, the result of
long accumulation and lack Of drainage.
The quantity of the filth is estimated at
60, 900 tons, and the authorities are begin
ming to act on the subject. As showing
the deadly character Of the substratum on
which the city rests, two men, who were
engaged in clearing away the refuse came
upon an abandon WE'LL and SO viruleni
were the gases emitted on the first blow

STEAM SEWING MACHINES.

Steam power for driving machines is ex-
tensively used, especially in the larger es-
establishments. An example is seen at
the great dry goods concern Of A. T. Stew
art & Co., in New York City. On the
fourth floor are about 500 females and a
smell number Of male assistants, engaged
in various branches of cutting and fitting
female apparel. The majority Of these
employees are operators on sewing ma
chimes. Tho machines are ranged in rows,
and are moved by steam. An operator can
start or stop the running of machine by
the use of her foot on pedal, which con-
meets with friction roller attached to a
shaft which is worked by steam The en-
ployes are enabled 10 make very good
wages by means Of this ingenious inven-
ton.

THE United States is now paying in
the neighborhood of $50, 1000 per year
to the principal officers Of the govern
ment, that is, to the president, vice.

member of the administration, to whom
this money is paid, has been absent
from the seat Of government almost con-
stantly since the advent Of warm wealth

pie cannot help thinking that for en-
ployes, they are having remarkably
pleasant time. The old idea that pub
lie position is, or ought to be, onerous as
well as honorable, seems to be exploded.
The public, who pays its officials for

THE LEGISLATIVE DILEMMA IN ILLINOIS

THE LEGISLATIVE DILEMMA IN ILLINOIS
From the st. Louis Republican,
Gov. Palmer's letter 10 Mayor Mason
presents the Illinois legislature in q most
ridiculous light, and unless tho sensibili-
ties of the members are unusually tough,
they can hardly help feeling thoroughly
ashamed Of themselves. For reasons not
difficult to understand, the municipal
authorities Of Chicago invited the legisla-
ture to hold its next regular session in
that city; and for reasons impossible to
understand, the legislature accepted the
invitation. The supreme folly OF such q
proceeding was shown up in the leading
journals of the state, but all TO no pur-
pose-the legislature had determined to
% to Chicago, no.matter what happened
in consequence thereof. 1t might nstur-
ally be supposed that this determination
would be supplemented with some
preparations for the anticipated change
Of base, but it now seems that:none what
ever were made. There are no arranget-
ments to provide q suitable place of NEE
ing for the legislature, or suitable rooms
for the state officers; nor is anybody
empowered to do this work, nor lie there
any money TO do it with. In short, If we
may judge by its action, or rather mac
ton, the legislature win go to Chicago
without the slightest::idea Of what it i; GO
ing for, or what to do when it gets there.
The common council of the city may as
sign the members same hall or vacant de-
pot in which to hold their deliberations,
but unless this is done, they are not likely
to have roof to cover them.
In this curious dilemma Gov. Palmer
is perfectly justifable in calling an extra
session, and thereby given the legislature
an opportunity to show some glimmer-
ings of sense by dropping the Chicago
excursion altogether.

4 Cheek on Profanity.

The following anecdote of the late
Bishop Ravenscroft, of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of North Carolina,
in n biographical sketch in the Quart
erly Church Review,
"One evening, the stagecoach in
which he and several others were
passengers, took in man who was con
siderably intoxicated, and soon began
to be very talkative and very proiane.
After little, the bishop, in kind
manner, told him that his language
was unpleasant to his fellow passengers
and requested him to speak without
the addition of any oaths. To this,
the man replied that his mouth was his
own, and that he could do with it rs he
pleased. The bishop made no reply /;
but when his profane language was re-
uewed IN more offensive form, he
again kindly reminded the man that,
when he came into the coach, the pass
engers We're all on good terms with each
other, and each in his turn contribut.
ing to the pleasure of the others, while
he was making himself disagreeable
to all To this came another and more
insulting. reply, with renewal OF his
outrageous language.
1.-THE bishop then, thinking that long
err forbearance was ceasing TO be a viz
tue, clapped his hand with some force
on the shoulder of the offender, who
was sitting next to him, and in his
most terrific tone, said Utter an
other oath, sir, If You dare, aud | will
rop YOU under the wheels OF the
coach, A clap of thunder could not
more suddenly or more elteetualy have
silencel the wretched maH. Not Il word
was spoken for some time by any one
in the coach, and the frightened crea-
tire never opened his lips during the
remainder Of the night. As day began
to dawn, the poor fellow, to use the
very words of the bishop, stole sever
al timid side-glances ut him, to see
whether it WAS a human being or a
grizzly bear that had SO growled at
him, and laid so huge paw upon his
shoulder. At sunrise next morning,
he got out at his home, which was not
far from the roadside. But before
leaving, he turned towards the coach
and said, Ladies and gentlemen, |
humbly beg your pardon for my con
duct last night and addressing him
self to the bishop, SAID Sir, | par
ticularly ask your pardon, and thank
you for stopping me as Won did, He
then stated that lac was not a drinking
man but that he had got with some
old friends the day before and had
made fool of himself, The bishop, q
good deal affected by the man hum
Bile apology, said my friend, freely
forgive you, but remembet that there is
One up there, pointing with his finger,
from whom you must yet receive par
don, and strength also, if you want to
be better man He then shook his
hand and said Ihope you may find
al well at home. >

A Man Murdered for his Money. and his
Body Burned.
Kalamazoo March 3, Cor. Detroit Tr.oune.


Kalamazoo March 81 Cor. Detroit Trioune
( We learn that most arocious muir
/ der was committed Mt Richmond, Allie
gan county, about ten miles this side OF
! the mouth of the Kalamazoo River, a
point on the Chicago and Lake Mich
gan Railroad, last Tuesday night. As
near as l can learn, the circumstances
are as follows: A man named O'Brien,
a laborer on the above named railroad,
and who also kept Il boarding house at
Sherman's Mill, for the gang of men
who work on that section otthe road,
started last week to go to Holland to
get his pay, some $500 in money. He
had succeeded in his mission and re-
turned as far as Richmond, Tuesday
evening, where he intended to remain
over night and go on the next day to
Sherman's Mill, which is in Clyde
township, some eight miles north of
the junction of the Kali, & S. H. r. r. with
the above named road.
With this purpose, he stopped at a
tavern in Richmond, but after he had
been there some time, two men came to
the tavern to see him. He was called,
and finally went ont with them and was
seen no more. At 4 O'clock in the morn
ing, an old shapty not far distant from
the tavern was discovered to have been
fired and was nearly burned up. On
investigation the remains of a human
being WAS found in the slnoldering ruins,
the body terribly charred, both legs and
arms burned away, and nothing left OF
his form or features for identification.
Under one armpit piece o. q shirt was
found that had escaped the fire a
knife and portion of a WOODEN com
forter were also found. subsequently
these were identified by the wife of
OBrien. The knife, especially, was
known to be his by his wife and son,
who recognized peculiar break in the
point Of it, which they had both FIRE
quently noticed.
A Deputy Sheriff brought the re-
mains of poor O'Brien to Sherman's
mill, Thursday, 1t is supposed that
two men named Hogle and Hayward
were the perpetrators of the act, and
they have both been arrested on suspi-
cion. O'Brien was an honest hard
working man of good habits. He
leaves a wife and three children, utter
ly destitute of means, and application
has been made to the township Of
Clyde for aid for them.
Ii is supposed that O'Brien was muir
dered and then conveyed to the shanty,
and that was fred to conceal the evil
dences of guilt. AS yet, however, no
trace of blood has been discovered, and
the body is 50 badly mutilated by fire
as to conceal all blows, if there were
any inflicted

Congressional Matters.

Bills have been introduced into the
Senate to abolish the tax on incomes
to organize the territory of Okolahama,
and consolidate the Indian tribes under
one government to enable honorably
discharged soldiers and sailors, their
widows and orphans to secure home
steads on public lands of the United
States, being the bill which passed IN
the House last session and failed in the
Senate. A number of railroad and
steamship subsidy bills have also been
introduced. Most of them are those
defeated at the last session.
Rev. j. p. Newman has been elected
Chaplain of the Senate.
The House has spent some time IN
the discussion of the bills for the re-
peal of the duty on salt and coal.
The entire session Of the Senate on
the 10th was taken up in discussing
the report Of the Republican Commit
tee making up the standing committees.
The chief feature ofthe report was the
reorganization of the Committee on
Foreign Relations, leaving ont Sumner
and substituting in his place as Chair
man Senator Cameron. Wilson and
Schurz vigorously opposed this pro
ceeding, but after a long ard acrimo-
NOUS debate the report was adopted by
a vote of 50 ayes, to 9 nays, % being
absent or not voting.
The House has passed a joint reso-
luton constituting the internal revenue
act of July II, 1870, so rs to provide
for the admission of animals specially
imported for breeding purposes, free
of duty from the Dominion Of Canada,

A Sharp Rogue.

German rogues are not the dullest OF
rogues. Recently a youth, seemingly
a bakers apprentice, presented mt the
counter of bank in Vienna, slip
which was, to all appearances, the tick
ct which had drawn the first prize S67,
800 in the Brunswick lottery. The Off.
GERS of the bank had a consultation,
and sent the ticket to the principal
manager of the lottery, the presenter,
all this time, keeping up an appearance
of the coolest unconcern, even inviting
one of the bank clerks ont to lunch
with him while waiting for the return
of the messenger. The ticket was
certified 10y the manager, and the mon
ey was paid the suppositious bakers
boy. He departed forthwith, bearing
his treasure; forty-eight hours later it
was ascertained that the ticket was
counterfeit an exact fac-simile of Il
genuine one which had been cashed on
" few hours before at Darmstant.
How the imp oster obtained cognizance
of this ticket cannot yet be known as
he is among the missing.

More Ocean Steamers.


SIX immense steamers are beng con-
structed at Belfast. which will consti-
tute a new line between this port and
Liverpool. The pioneer of the lot, the
Oceanic, is nearly finished She is 44O
feet in length, and built mainly of iron.
with engines of 5000 horse power, and
capacity of 5000 tons burden. Her
length is divided by six iron bulk
heads, reaching from the keel to the
main deck, and making seven compart-
ments which are fire proof and air
tight She has four masts, they being
tubes of hollow iron, and having
strength to withstand the strain of a
large area of canvas. Her spars are
most accurately balanced, and her
model calculated to afford speed, SO
that even were she deprived of the use
of two engines, she would be able to
move rs rapidly as a chpperbuilt ship.
Below her fittings show many improve
ments. The main saloon is separated
from the state-rooms, is large, we'll
lighted and ventilated. A private sa-
loon or parlor is set apart for ladies. =
Every state room has a fourteen inch
side light and furnished with fresh wa
ter. The rooms of married people are
set apart from the rest, as also are
those of single women. No passengers
are placed below the water line, that
space being given to the engines and
cargo. The vessel is of the utmost
solidity throughout The stern-post
alone weighs not less than eighteen
tons. The engines are the most pow
erful ever used in merchant ship. -
The Oceanic is built to carry 200 cabin
and 1000 steerage passengers, q mum
