THE money safe of the Buckeye
Bel, blown up at Beverly ninctcen
years ago, was found in the river
lust above the dam at that place a
few days nee. 1t was opened aud
nothing but mud was found in IT.
1t WAS slid, at tie time of the accl-
dent, that there were from $500 to
1890 in the safe, some oft in Epe-
cIe. 1t seems, however, that this
was a mistake, and that if there was
any money it, 1t must have been all
IN paper, which The years Of expos
ure las rotted. As some parties
were suspicioned Of purloInIng the
safe and its contents, it is well
that our present state Of low water
has brought the whole matter to
light.

Education I'm Virxiufo,

The Richmond Enquirer states that
there are three thousand public schools
now in operation in Virginia, costing
annually 100000. The. Enquirer
says:
ut has been no holiday affair
putting these schemes in operation.
Our people are dead poor, and are
grumbling and quarreling necessarily
about their taxes. 1t is like drawing
their eye-teeth to get money out Of
them. For them at such time, with.
out . murmer. to have undertaken the
education of 100000 colored children
to furnish them school houses, and
books, and teachers, and fuels q
decidedly notable thing. We say most
emphatically that We are the warm
friends of the system, and want to SEE
our -colored population instructed and
elevated and improved in every way.

AIMissINs WILL RECOVERED.

A Dying Confederate Generals Is
tafe-s3OO, 900 Involved-The Will
inst Restored TO the Generals
Daughter.
Henry Dillon, an ex-Union soldier,
proprietor of a newspaper stand at
Montgomery and Hudson streets, Jersey
City, yestesday received check for $500
from the daughter Of General StegmaD,
of the Confederate army. The circum-
stances under which the money was
paid are romantic. During the war
Dillon served in the Second New Jersey
Cavalry. He accompanied his regi-
ment on Grierson's famous raid through
Mississippi. and while on a scouting
expedition one day encountered General
Stegman and one of his staff officers.
Shots were exchanged, and the Rebel
General fell from his saddle, mortally
wounded. The staff officer fled, but
was overtaken and captured by COM
rade of Dillon's. In his dying moments
General Stegman requested his slayer
to take from one of his inside pockets
his will, bequeathing all his property to
his wife and daughter, and life in.
surance policy for $4,000, He asked
Dillon to keep them and send them to
his family.
After the war Mr.. Dillon advertised
in vain for the owner, and he resolved
to retain possession Of the papers until
some inquiries should be made for them
Recently an advertisement appeared in
the Alabama papers offering $500 fol
the missing will. Dillon answered it
and General Stegman's daughter came
north as the guest Of Roger A. Pryor
She related the particulars Of the long
search for the will, the difficulties thai
had been encountered. the production
of a forged will by her fathers relatives
and their Mobile lawsuits. She ex
pressed deep gratitude to Mr.. Dillon To-
the recovery Of the will, and said thai
through it her mother and herself would
be enabled to regain possession of thel
extensive Alabama and Georgia estates
The estates are valued at 100000.
Dillon is to be subpnnaed as wit
ness in the suits for their restoration t,
the rightful owners. Young Dillon gal
lantly distinguished himself in severa
actions during the war, and was one Q
the few private soldiers to whom Con
gress voted gold medal for bravery

Sinking Fast.

Pale, miserable, discouraged, without
relish for food, without energy enough for
exertion, yet with no acute pain, or other
specific indication Of disease, how often do
we see feeble invalidj fading as 1t were out
OF life without any apparent cause. We
say OF them that they are Sinking fast, or
sinking gradually" as tine case may be-.
But there is no good reason why they should
sink at all. Persons in this dead-alive state
simply want invigorating and vitalizing.
Nature, in state of torpor, demands help.
Bring out the reserve of vitality in the sys-
tenn, brace the nerves; tone the stomach,
break up the morbid trance of body and
Bitters. 1t can be done. 1t has been done
In thousands of instances. The effect upon
the eneryated frame is electric. Never give
up, however languid and broken down.
Remember that for the exhausted, the de-
bilitated, the responding, this powerful
vegetable restorative is a genuine elixir.
1t Is not mere stimulant that provokes a
transient flash of vigor in the system, and
then leaves 1t in more depressed condition
than before. 1t removes the causes of de-
bility by altering the secretions, and regu-
lating the action OF the internal organs, as
we'll as reinforcing them. 1t is a particu-
larly valuable medicine at this season, be-
cause 1t is an antidote to the malaria which
produces intermittent fever, bilious collie
and other disorders Of the bowels prevalent
in the fall.

Suit for Two Million Dollars
Against Secretary Boutwell,.

The New York Sun Of yesterday has
the following: "On Friday even,
ing Secretary Boutwell, was arrested on
the suit OF B. Clifford Calvin, as he
was about to deliver a lecture in
Steinway Hall. Bartholomew Clifford
Calvin is an Irishman; graduate OF
Trinity College, and received a fnan-
cial education. He is lawyer and
member of the Canadian bar" Mr..
Calvin, according to the Sun, claims to
have given Mr.. Boutwell,, in the sum.
mer Of 1869, a sketch Of what has
since been put in practice by that gen.
tleman as his financial policy" also
that before giving the Secretary said
sketch, Calvin claimed to be paid for
it; by accepting it and acting upon it
he insists that the Secretary is bound
to pay its value, which, as above stated,
he lays at s., 100000.

GENTLE ANNA.
Miss Dickinson Hitting Out ut the
Trades Unions.

Anna Dickinson is pretty sure t
have other enemies to fight agains
than the opponents of woman's rights
and secession sympathizers. In hel
new lecture on "Demagogues anc
Workingmen," she talks very bitterly
against trades unions and labor
reformers. She denounces the Goa
miners strike as unjustifiable; pro
nounces the union system, with its
stringent rules and opposition to
apprentices, wrong and unjustifiable
and claims that men who toll with
their brains are as much entitled to be
called workingmen as those who use
only their hands; affirming that the
richest men are the hardest workers.
She closes her srraignment with the
following plain advice to the classes
which che has been arraigning.
You may succeed in obtaining
equal rights, but you will never succeed
in obtaining equal condition; that
depends upon individual will and
individual strength Of mind. 1t is
nonsense to accuse the spirit OF the
nineteenth century of being against
you. 1t is the spirit of your own
ignorance OF mind and perverseness.
Any man can raise himself from the
lowest to the highest positions in
society, as has been shown again
and again, and to blame a man for
being better or richer than you is just
as sensible as to blame him for being
stouter or taller. Remember that
your surest means to climb in the
social scale is. not to strike with
clenched fist the man above, but to
hold out your open palm to the man
below-feeiing certain that in helping
another to rise you will rise yourself
