leaving out of the account the extraordinary
contribution from the British Government.
We observe that the Coin in the Treasury
ia still counted at about ten millions above
the amount actually there. The debt on which
interest has ceased since maturity, consisting,
except small sum, of bonds called for re-
demptOn on June 1st. is still reported ut
$40, ,909, ,7SO. The amount called it will be re-
mcmbered, was fifty millions, and the fifty
millions OF new fves are reported AZ all taken
and paid for. There il no man possessing
any knowledge of such matters who can believe
that so large proportion as thirteen out OF
the fifty millions of bonds which ceased to
draw interest three months ago have not been
presented for payment. The fact Is, as we
have maintained all along, that the Secretary
of the Treasury, for some inscrutable reason
wishes to have it believed that the Treasury
contains and the Government owns ten or
twelve millions more than the fact.
Deducting the coin certificates which repre-
sent gold owned by private persons, the Gov
ernment owns S42,697,S4 Deducting still
further twelve millions more for money ac-
tually paid out or payable on demand, to the
owners OF the overdue debt. and the coin
really owned by the Government is about
thirty millions, which is less than the coin in
terest accrued on the bonds. Yet five millions
more are to be paid out this month for called
bonds, the amount of the call being $4,5OO,O00
in excess of the Alabama payment and six
millions are to be sold to raise currency to
keep the Government going If this is wise
policy, can any good end be gained by con-
ceallng it' The whole force of the gold spec
ulation lies in the .mystifcation of the amount
of gold in the country and consequent course
of supply and demand, out of which bulls and
bears are alternately enabled to rob legitimate
business. Why should an honest Secretary

THE AUGUST DEBT STATEMEyT.

The Public Debt Statement, issued yester-
day, shows reduction of $6,752,S29 during
the month, but this decrease appears to be
wholly fictitious. If the reader will take the
trouble to compare the statement of yester-
day with that of August 1st, he will find that
there is decrease of $11,173,5OO in the amount
of six per cent bonds outstanding. Now only
$l5,5OO IN bonds were purchased last month,
and no bonds fell due under any call. The
sole explanation that we can conceive of is
that sil.i5S,O0O of the bonds called for re-
demption on September 9th and TUNED in by
the Syndicate in part payment of the Alabama
award have been counted as redeemed. De-
ducting the reported decrease of the Debt
from the last-named amount, we have an
actual increase of Si.4Q5.l7 during the month.

railroad reform, the views of Amasa Walker
before the Boston Grange, yesterday, will be

three solutions for this most perplcxinc prob

plan of placing the railroads under control of

New-York tribune., 1873-09-02

Our Cable kilograms to-day represent tne
state of affairs at Cartagena as very serious.
II il not improbable that the insurgents win
persist in their menace to fire on the BritfSh
vessel if nm attempt is made to take the
Almanac and yitoria to Gibraltar. The result
of the conflict. if one should take place, is not
likely to be so unfavorable TO the British as
the telecrams might lead us to believe be-
side the Lord Warden, which is mentioned as
about to sustain heavy fire from larger
vessel of the insurgents, the British vice.
Admiral has several powerful iron-clads at his
command, and there are war vessels of other
nations ready to render him assistance. As
the two Spanish vessels were captured on the
High Seas, without proper credentials, their de-
tention is perfectly regular, according to we'll
established principles of international law.
An Important meeting of the Committee OF
Fifty of Brooklyn is called for tonight at the
rooms in Fulton-st., and full attendance is
urged by the President. This Committee has
maintained its existence for two years past
through much calumny and against great OPP
position. 1t has carefully kept Offce-seekers
from the organization. 1t has exposed great
corruption and compelled reform. 1t forced
restitution of large sums virtually stolen from
the Bridge Company, and prevented the con-
summation of bargains which would have paid
the ring of contractors and directors hundreds
of thousands of dollars. 1t defeated the
iniqutous Bridge bill, by which corrupt
directory sought, on detection of their first
schemes of plunder, to escape further payments
for their stock. 1t has been untiring in Its
work, honest in its organization, and to-day
has the respect of the people of Brooklyn, who
look forward to its action i'll the emergency
which they have now to face with confidence
and hope of relief.

adopted to-day
New-York tribune., 1873-09-02

The official report on the Wawaset disaster
leaves the origin of the fire still involved in
mystery. AS might be expected, however it
severely censures the officers for the utter
lack of judgment they evinced at the critical
moment, and the owners for carrying so many
passengers in excess of the legal number.
The suggestions that the woodwork near or
around the boilers of steam vessels should be
sheathed with iron, and that Inspectors be
required to see that each crew knows how 20
act in case of fire, are practical and judicious.
New-York tribune., 1873-09-02

The arrest of another Of the alleged forgers
of railway stocks, and the seizure of the funds
OF the brokers Kendrick g. Co., viii doubtless
have the effect of putting a stop to the present
operations of the forgers. The amount of
bogus certificates already in circulation has
doubtless been greatly exaggerated, and the
excitement on the street has been described
in extravagant language. The stocks forged
were favorites for investment, and among
holders considerable trepidatiOn was mani
tested lest they had purchased some OF the
forged certificates; but speculation was in no
degree affected by it, and transactions indeed
were heavier than on any day for weeks past.
Two Of the alleged fOrgers have now been

the Commodore steamer tried to take her in

scuttle her to prevent her being dashed
against the pier. The schooner Beatjtude

London for Boston, with maize, was seen
in distress off Skegness, the wind blowing
a hurricane at the time. The life boat Her

sible, and proceeded towards the vessel, the
crew of which were seen labouring at the
pumps Shortly before reaching her the
ship struck on the Knock, at the entrance
to Bosten Deeps, turned over, and sank,
and all hands were drowned. The captain

wife and son-in-law named William Ander-
son, who acted as mate, We're with him.
The body of Mrs. Laurence has been wash
ed ashore, and awaits an inquest. The
brig Darn, of New Castle, from Gehe,
laden with deals, went ashore at Huttott.
The crew were all saved and landed at
Sutton. Intelligence has come to hand OF

SEA-SERPENTS.-Seeing that there are
so many s~ea-serpents always rushing about,
frightening timid spinsters on u coasts,
and taking up the time of captains out at
sea, it is a great pity that no one of the
monsters has been captured, brought to
land and labelled in a museum. We
hasten to appease the wrath of many opin-
donated persons by saying that we fully
admit the possibility OF the existence Of
these creatures. Nor do we treat with
scorn or Indifference the evidence given by
sailors aud others as to> their having seen
some huge animal in the sea The odd
thing is that no one of these animals has
ever been taken, and that no bones or
other traces of them have ever been found.
1t is to be remembered, also, that after
captains and crews have convinced them
selves that they saw the s%ea-serpent at a
distance, they have found, on nearer APP
proach, that it was only a long mass Of
sea-Weed with a cIump OF roots at the end
of it. The last story of the kind rather
suggests the sea-Weed theory. The Rev.
Mr.. Joass, Of GoIspie, after having been
pat on the watch by three persons Whose
eyidnce at secondhand is inadmissible),
says that he saw, on a calm sea, about
haIt-a-miIe off, a floating object which
was certainly a part Of some sort Of beast
dead or basking." But why " certainly! Z"
The only description we have of the OBJ
ject is that the visible portion was about
eight or ten feet long, its colour brown
and light yellow, while at no time did it
raise itself higher than when first seen.
If drifted along and finally disappeared.
1t may have been a s%aurian, as the rever-
end gentleman suggests and we see no
reason why the possibility of the existence
of such an animal should be doubted or
thrust aside with contempt. But we
should like to have a d" s~ea-serpent" in the
British Museum-even the skeleton OF the
head of one.-I6id.

ABD-EL-KADIR-The death of the great
Emir, Abd-elKadir, at the moderate age OF
sixty-six, is an event Of interest to Europe.
1t is said to have occurred at Mecca,
whittier the chieftain had retiren after his
long struggle with the forces Of France in
Algeria, his protracted exile ard nominal
Imprisonment, and his subsequent friend
ship with the French, has couqnerors and
captors. There was something heroic and
pathetic In the character and career OF
this man. He waged a war at once of
patriotism aud Of religion against a foreign
nation, armed with all the powers, and not
always adopting the merclcs. OF clvlIlsatlon /;
and he fought his battle out to the last
chance. There was in hisnature a powerful
religious element. He did not SO deeply
object to the country of his forefathers
being subdued and occupied, as to the hum
~iliation of his fellow Mohammedans, for he
was a Mlrabout, Jealous beyond exaggera-
ton, and would have been intOlerant had
he not been intelligent. AS it was, he at
one time declared the French to be the
bitter foes of his faith and of his claims to
be recognised the Sovereign of Oran, that
beautiful province of Northern Africa, with
which any monarch who understood the
resources and history of the region might
we'll be content. From his earliest youth
he appeared to combine the qualities Of the
saiut and the Surant he was both learned
and pious, pfolouad in the books contain
ing his creed and practjsed in the use OF the
yatagan, the art of Craftsmanship, and all
other exercises, whether Aslatlc or Euro
pean ia their genius. 1t was as an exile
from the OLD Dey of Aigiers that he first
came into contact with European manners;
but he never afterwards refused to acknOW-
ledge their superiority, as he publicly ac-
kn0wledged it, indeed, In more than one cap
ital ofEurOpp. There is something touch
ing in the thought of the death Of this man,
at Mecca, who once, leading ten thousand
cavalry, sweptdown upon the French in AL
giers, enveloped them in whlrl winds OF
horse, confronted every obstacle, dared every
danger, rppuIsed the most distinguished gen
erals of France, collected and concentrated
a hundred tribes under a single banner,
created for awhile almost an empire, though
he himselfremained uncroWned, established
a government, almost succeeded in recon-
stituting a nationality, and at one time
spread CONSERVATION among the armies OF
France. Among the "reminiscences OF his
existence , confessed by himself, are, that
he had three wives, twenty-five children,
and a pension of 4,OOOt. sterling a year.
For he wrote and published a Book OF
Thoughts" with, among them, these self
congratulatory recoIlections.

Harvest in California.

The harvest season In this state COM
meneed on the first day of June. A few
fields were cut before that day. Very
little wheat viii be cut In the coast
coUaties for two weeks. Thus far we
have heard no discouraging reports
about the quality, no rust, blight,
shrinkage of berry, or other drawbacks.
The good quality is conceded by those
who have had opportunity to examine
the ripening fields. Even where there
is oily half crop, the berry is well
developed. Many farmers are coming
to this city for harvest hands, the de-
mani in this respect promising to be
about the same as last year.-San Fran
