The Southern Claims.

The reports and papers in the 1900
claims just reported as allowed or rejected
by the Southern Claims Commission have
been removed to the room of the Commit
tee of Claims, in the basement story of the
House wing of the capitol. The commit
tee room is to be kept open daily, from lotto
o'clock, to afford access to the papers by
claimants, their attorneys, or other depu-
tiZed persons. Ga
1t is probable that q supplementary re
port, embracing such of the earliest and
most meritorious claims as could not be got
into the late report for want of time, will
be sent to Congress by the Commissioners
in season to have the awards included in
the appropriation bill to be reported by the
Claims Committee during the present ses-
sion. Should an appropriation to pay the
claims be made during this session the pa
pers belonging to the allowed claims will
go to the Treasury Department and be
placed in the charge of the Third Auditor,
by whom the final settlement is to be
made. e n 81 Fe
Payment is made in every case by a
Treasury draft, current everywhere, but
payable only to the claimants order.
Owing to the large number of claims and
the necessary delay in passing the appro-
priatiOn bill, payment will hardly begin
before the latter part of next spring, and is
likely to extend far, into the summer. AS
some of the rejected claims will probably
be reOpened for cause, it is expected that
after examination by the Claims Commit
tee, the papers will be returned to the files
of the Commission Washington Chron>

The PeSident'S Salary.

The salary of the President of the Unit
ed States is SOS, 600, and has been this
amount from the formation of the govern
ment. Out of this salary the President
used to pay for warming and lighting the
White House. This is now done by the
government, out of the appropriations for
care, &C., of public buildings. The late
President Lincoln saved some 900 of
his salary; other Presidents have saved
and with the payments for fuel and light,
messengers, &C., fruits and vegetables from
the public gardens, the Presidents pay
must now be some $40, 900 year.
The Secretaries need more pay. They
have to furnish their own houses, fuel and
light, and good house is worth nearly as
much rent as the salary of a Secretary.
Pay them at least fifteen thousand dollars
a year. All salaries of our public officers
at the Capital are too low, far below those
paid by individuals and corporations for
ability and integrity in service. The gov
eminent will not be able to get tirst-class
men for poor pay while it can get men
who will pay premium for offices with
out any salary.-NeaO York Ecening Post.

A CURIOUS FRAUD-FLNANCIAL PATCH
woRK.-There was received on Friday, at
the Treasury Department, in Washington,
note purporting to be a United States
legal-tender note of the denomination of
five hundred dollars. 1t is composed of
parts of different genuine notes of various
denominations. The centre is part of a
one-hundred dollar note, with the "one'
taken out of the centre and upper border,
and 'fiven neatly inserted. The left
hand lower end contains portrait of An
drew Jackson taken from five-dollar note;
the right hand lower end a vignette taken
from ten-dollar note. The scroll work
containing the figures five hundred'' has
been taken from national bank note.
The back of the note is from ten-dollar
United States note, the sten" having been
cut out and replaced by the ovals from the
back of five. Although this note is not
calculated to deceive bankers and brokers,
it would readily be taken by those not ac-
customed to handle much money, as the
engraving is all genuine.

Mr.. Bret Hartc, who is authority on

poetry, is delivering a lecture this season
on the ''Argonauts of 49, In his lecture
in New York the other evening, after CIV
ing a historical sketch of the Argonauts,
Mr.. Harte sketched the San Francisco of
1852, in Winter time, when flour was
worth $50 q barrel, and glimpse of a
Woman's face was one of the comforts for
which the hardy adventures sighed. The
gambling saloon was next described as the
central point of interest in the history of
the Argonauts. 1t was approached by no
mysterious passage or guarded entrance,
and frequently opened upon the street,
with every invitation of gliding, lights
and music.
The social life Of that day was peculiar.
The best-dressed men were gamblers and
the best-dressed ladies had no right to that
title. Gentlemen young in years had
wives much their seniors and considerably
larger in their physical persons, and often
one lady bad a troop of gallants to do
escort duty of an eTening. Surely, in the
multiplicity of such attention there was
safety, and especially so when each gen.
tleman wore his revolver. A wife of an
old pioneer used to show chair with
hole through the cushion made by gen.
tleman caller, who sat down in bashful
confusion and exploded his revolver.
Happily the wants of the Argonauts
were few and infrequent 1t was often
that the diversity of amendments to the
miners, clothes were a serious perpleXity
to the recognition of the person wearing
them. In the earlier days, two gentlemen
of responsibility lost their identity entire
ly in the labels of the flour sacks which
had been added TO their clothing, so that
one of them came to be called "Genesee

Laughter. The lecturer then spoke
briefly of domestic life, and described the
time when the highest excellence in
woman was to keep boarding-house and
to be the wife of an aristocratic Argonaut
was to be able of taking in washing.

High Water i'm England.

LONDON, Dec. 2O.-The recent heavy
storms have swollen the streams through
out England to great height, and several
of them have been out of their banks. The
Windsor, Eaton, Trent and its affiuents,
Loar and Dorwent Rivers have overflowed
their banks, submerging large portion of
the country in leicester and Nottingham
counties. In some sections of these cOun-
ties only the tops of the trees and hedges
are visible. Heavy land slides have oc-
Cured near Dover, and railway commune
cation with that town is interrupted. The
town of Peterborough, in Northampton
county, is flooded, and many of the resi-
dents have been compelled to take refuge
from the water in tie upper stories of their
dwellings.
A dispatch from Liverpool says 449 per-
sons, including passengers and sailors,
have persisted by marine disasters during
the past ten days; 80 persons were lost
by the sinking of the ship Matchless, of

MEssRs. EDITORS /: Last night the
Nashville Bible Society, at the anniversa'
ry meeting of its fiftieth year, passed the
resolution below, and which may be of in
terest to many of your readers:
Resolued, That as an appropriate cele-
bration of its fiftieth anniversary, the So
ciety endeavor at once to raise the sum OF
three thousand dollars, of which five hum
of the Society, five hundred donated to the
Parent Institution, and two thousand used
in the great expanding work of the SOcie-
ty.
9 That in view of the fact that while a
very few of the churches have uniformly
and promptly responded to the calls of the
Bible cause as represented by this Society,
others have contributed irregularly and
others have made no offerings, applica-
tions for contributions be made to indi-
Yiduals.
3. That while the emergencies of its i'm
portant work will not permit the Society to
rely on the hitherto great uncertainty of
congregational collections hopes are enter
tanned that churches which have regular
ly given to the cause will continue to be
faithful and will increase in their liberali-
ty, and that this noble example will soon
be emulated by every congregation in the
city in a way worry of the high Christian
character of this community.
Resolved, That the first Saturday of May
be set apart as day of special commence
ration and sen'i-centennialc celebration of
this Society, and that the officers of the
Society be instructed to arrange for said
meeting, and also report as far as possible
the history and work of the Society for the
past fifty years,
To-day the first man whom approach
ed for contributions subscribed $100-the
third set down his name for $3.50, to go di-
rectly to the Parent Society, the sub
scriber being gentlemen long identified
with the Nashville auxiliary and its work
and with the Southern Church.
May these noble examples not be lost Oh
those Of your readers who are equally well
to the great interests concerned.
