DEATH OF WEALTHY ARCHBIsHoP.-The
archbishop of Lima died on the 10Th of February
This event, says the Panaman Star and Herald
although not wholly unexpected, created pro
found impression in the capital. The body was
laid out in state; the different religious commu.
mites relieved each other in the performance Of
the customary rites; the numberless church
bells of Lima and the guns of the fortress OF
Santa Catalina announced the event at short in
tervals Doctor Goyeneche was appointed bsh-
op of Arequipa during tie reign of Ferdinand
the Seventh, and after holding that position for
forty years, was made some ten years ago arch
bishop of Lima. Dying at the age of eighty
eight, he was the eldest bishop and the oldest
archbishop in the Catholic church; the first by
reason of seniority, the second by reason of age.
Another more agreeable circumstance to those
directly interested is the fact thar the late prelate
was probably the richest man in South America,
his property at the lowest estimation amounting
to twenty millions. His life was spotess and
his virtues many; his fault was a remarkable
desire TO increase his wealth.

AN OBJECT OF SYMPATHY.-Mr. Conger OF
Michigan, in a speech in the house the other
day, told the following humorous anecdote OF
"SunSet Cox"
ellis sympathy is not all-embracing. know
the gentleman loves the human race, and yet it
was but few days ago in the house that one of
his venerable Virginia friends, who lives on the
other side of the Blue Ridge, came here to see
him, and looked around this house, and looked
up in that gallery at the shadows clustering
there, and talked with him about the present
situation of this house compared with what it
was fifteen years ago, the last time his venerable
friend met him here. And they talked about
the situation of the people who have got in here
since then. His old friend said that it was diff
ierent now from what it was when he used TO
come here and found gentleman in congress,
and gentlemen riding in the streets, and gentle
men holding office under the government, when
the white race controlled things here. And how
faithfully hel depicted the beautiful old days
that are past and he said Now there is a
darkey in the senate, or was, or has BEEN He
said TO my friend here: Now there are negroes
in the house, laughter He said: Now ne
groeS sit around the gallery; they never did so
when used TO come here and meet the first
families of Virginia in the halls of congress-
ooh, sir, went with my sympathizing friend
and his friend out into the rotunda, and he sat
down on a seat before thar picture Of Washing
ton surrendering his sword, and his old friend,
overcome with grief from what he had seen
here, sat down and looked at the father of his
country, and said, addressing Washington,
George, my father was your friend, and we be-
longed to the first families Of Virginia, your
father and my father did, George. Laughter
But it is no use our staying in Washington any
longer. Another race has come, respectable
people are driven out, the first families are gone
George. [Laughter.l There are negroes in the
street cars, negroes in the senate, negroes in the

pathized with him, but the tears stood trem-
bling in his eyes as he looked up to the painting
and my friend, looking on heard him say in
that doeful voice, George, this is no place for

and his New York friend went sorrowing on
their way.

RELICS OF OLD New YoRK.-Some very in.
teresting discoveries have been made at the rear
OF No. 81 Sullivan street. In digging for the
foundation of new building, the workmeu laid
bare what was, in all probability, one of the
hrst homesteads ever erected on this island.
ABOUT three feet beneath the soil, two square
platforms Of heavy logs of yellow pine were dis.
covered; and, finally, as the accumulated sand
and clay were removed, and what was once the
surface was reached, two log huts were revealed
IN an almost perfect state of preservation.
The first one uncovered stands about sixty
feet from the street. II is eighteen feet high,
twenty feet wide, and twenty feet in length. 1t
is 0ullt OF heavy square logs of yellow pine. with
nat roof Of the same material.
The other hut, which is about FIVE feet further
back, is similar in size but built in ruder style,
of rounded logs. 1t was probably the cattle.
shed, as kind Of trough sunk in the ground
was found close by its side.
The house was not only substantial but for
those primitive times, very comfortable dwell
ing, the roof being so well laid as TO be imper-
vlous TO rain and the logs forming the walls
fitting together in the closest and most work
manlike manner. Quite near this hut was q
well, from which the wOrkmen fshed up broken
pieces Of pump.
Around these huts was once blooming or.
chard, and the stems, branches and roots, pre-
served in the light, dry soil, are piled up by the
workmen around the hut where once dwelt the
settler who planted them.
Diigent inquiries have been made in the
neighborhood, but no tradition even could be
heard Of relating to these relics of the olden
time. Even "the oldest inhabtant," a gentle
man residing in Sullivan street. sixty wears OF
age, never knew Of their existence, but remem.
bers that the site on which they stand was a lea
garden half century ago.-E Y Eye Post.

A USEFUL ARTICLE.-Ammonia, or as il is
generally called, spirits of hartshorn, is power
full alkali, and dissolves grease and dirt with
great ease. 1t has lately been recommended
very highly for domestic purposes. For wash
ing paint, put tablespoonful in a quart of
moderately hot water, dip in flannel cloth and
then wipe off the wood work; no scrubhing will
be necessary. For taking greasy spots from any
fabric use the ammonia nearly pure, then lay
white blotting paper over the spot and iron il
lightly. In washing lace put about twelve drops
in pint of warm suds 70 clean silver, mix
two teaspoOnfuls of ammonia in quart of hot
suds. Put in your silverware and wash, using
an old nail-brush, or toothbrush for the pur.
pose. For cleaning har-brushes, etc simply
shake the brushes up and down in mixture of
one tablespoonful of ammonia to one pint of hot
water; when they are cleansed, rinse them in
cold water, and stand them in the wind or in a
hot place to dry. For washing fnger.marks
from looking glasses or windows, put a few
drops of ammonia on moist rag, and make
quick work of it. II you wish your house
plants TO flourish put few drops of the spirits
In every pint of water used 10 watering. tea
spoonful will add much TO the refreshing effects
of the bath. Nothing is better than ammonia
water for cleansing the hair. In every case rinse
on the ammonia with clear water To which
we would only add, that, for removing grease
spots, mixture of equal parts of ammonia and
alcohol is better than alcohol alone; and for
taking out the red stains produced by the strong
acids in blue and black clothes, there is nothing
better than ammonia.-PrOUidence Journal

| it that the full advantage of the tun-
mel is not hazarded by an alienation of
this great work from the ownership of the state.
The people of each and every part of the state
can only receive an adequate benefit from this
large investment Of their money by securing to
all business which may reach the tunnel, by
whatever line of railroad, the right and the fa-
cilities to pass through it on equal terms. 1t is
necessary, therefore, to demonstrate not only
against the sale of the Hoosac tunnel, but also
against the passage of any law authorizing any
lease, agreement, consolidation or arrangement
by which the use of the state property shall be
nonopolized by any party whatever.
The Worcester eastern district court bill, and
the bill authorizing the purchase of camp
ground for militia brigade and division maneu-
vers, were passed one stage to-day without OPP

cation are divided on the question of recon-
mending gift of 100000 to Amherst college,
a majority being favorable to the grant.

The call for the republican state convention,
to he held in this city on the tenth of April, is
now published. Six delegates to the national
republican convention are to be chosen, four at
large and two for the additional representative
to which the state is entitled by the new appor-
tionment. The basis OF representation in the
convention is the same as heretofore, and the
plan adopted last year Of admitting delegates to
the hall by tickets will be adhered to. The other
delegates to the national convention, to which
the state is entitled-two for each representative
in congress-will be chosen this year as usual
by conventions in the congressional districts.
There are, no doubt, plenty of gentlemen who
would willingly serve their country and party as
delegates at Philadelphia. 1t is perhaps even
more than usually important to select those who
will faithfully represent the republicans of Mas
sachusetts.

There are only fourteen investigating commit
tees of congress now engaged in their varied IN
quiries. Two or three Others are talked of, how
ever, and the number may be increased to a
score. Some of them never had any interest for
the general public, and that of the rest is pretty
thoroughly exhausted, They are costly in
money and, what is quite as important, they
occupy the time and thought of senator's and
representatives which are needed for really i'm

The "stout party" who calls himself Roger
Charles Tichborne, and whose real name, as
other people are now pretty generally agreed, is
Arthur orion, has issued a circular asking the
public to contribute funds forhis defence against
the charge of perjury The force of impudence
cannot 90 further than this. This fellow has
already cheated the believers in his pretensions
out of many thousands of pounds by the sale of
the Tichborne bonds, issued to raise funds for
the prosecution of his claim to the Tichborne
estate, and now that the claim is abandoned and
his shameless imposture exposed, he has the
assurance to ask his victims for more money 10
help him evade the punishment due to his
rascality. His former dupes would naturally be
more eager than anybody else to see him geth his
deserts, and, if they must be bled further, we
imagine they would contribute more willingly to
aid the prosecution than the defence. The pas,
sion for being humbugged, however, Springs
eternal in the human breast" and his appeal
will very likely bring him some money.

| possible that so much corruption, violence
crime, and public and private vice as we know
to exist in New York could be consistent
with decided taste for and universal
indulgence in beverage so mild and primitive
in character, and so charmingly pastoral in its
associations as milk; but the difficulty OF be-
lieving this may be partly overcome by the sug-
gestion that Gin and milk, combination which
we can readily believe has couupling tendency,
is a New York invention, and perhaps is still
freely imbibed there. Another explanation,
which, to some, will be more satisfactory, is
that, in stating the quantity of milk brought in
on the Erie railroad, temizer was too liberal
with his cipherS, and that he meant to say, or
should have said, that the number of gallons in
four years was forty millions, instead of forty
two thousand millions The former amount
wonld be equivalent to about one gill day to
each inhabitant, which is not improbable.
