A MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
The following account Of the dis.
covery Of an unknown corpse is told
by the Phoebe Record Of Oct. IA:


List Saturday Joe Travis was hunting
som+ horses which had gone astray, ut
Patterson, one Of the eating stations on
the stage route between this place and
Hamilton, and distant from here hetwefn
60 and 20 miles. A. be- was riding about
in the sage brush be saw a man hand,
on the ground. and immediate. iy sur
missed that the rest of the body was
somewhere in the vicinity. Upon dig
ling mp the ground little. the putre-
fed body of u man who had EVIDENT,
been murdered was disclosed to view.
The body was apparently that Of young
man Of medium hight. with light sand,
hair. A hole had been made in the
skull over the left eye, and the man had
been buried with all his clothing on ex-
c. ut his boots. This leads to an almost
perfect certainty that the man was muir
derrd.
The first parts of the body which at
;:f..::ed attention were the skull and one
of the han:a... which h.d been dug IN
from the shallow grave by the coyotes
Upon searching further the rest Of the
remains were fonnd. They were ccl-
lected and buried again, deep enough 10

Lord Lytton.

A subscriber asks to be informed il Bul"er'
the dead novelist, was Lord Lytton or Lord
Bulwer-Lytton.
There seems to be some confusion upon
this point, which we will endeavor to make
clear. The father OF the novelist was Gen
eral Bulwer, and his mothers maiden name
vas Lyttou. His own name, in full, was
Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer, and it
was as plain Mr.. Bulwer that he won The lit
erary successes which make him famous
wherever English is spoken, and have given
him, upon the Continent OF Europe, wider
reputation than is enjoyed by any other
English novelist. In 1888 Mr.. Bulwer, as
the representative Of British literature, was
created baroaet, bis title being simply Sir
Edward G. E. L. Bulwer. In lS43 the
mother OF Sir Edward Bulwer died, and, in
compliance with her will, he changed his
name, taking, by royal license, the name OF
T,vtton in addition TO that OF Bulwer. His
style then was Sir Edward Bulwer-Lytton.
In 1866 he was raised to the peerage as
Baron Lytton (not Bulwer-Lytton) and was
thenceiorth known as Lord Lytton. Bulwer-
Lytton was his family name; Baron Lytton
was his title.

A Coed Move.

Representative Miller has introduced q
bill, to provide for compulsory registration
of births, deaths and marriages taking place
after July 81, 1873. The proposition IS a
good one Such registration will be OF
value in the courts as means OF establish
ing age and legitimacy OF birth, and tne
statistical tables, as published, will sho"
what progress the State is making ID tne
matter OF population. When the people
have fairly before them, in Official shape an
exhibit OF the terrible mortality amongst the
colored people, they will be aroused to the
necessity OF teaching the ignorant classes
how to take care OF themselves and their
children. The registration OF marriages
will naturally tend to increase the solemnlty
of the marriage tie. Jumping over oroom'
stick will not satisfy the confdlng fair, When
the law requires them TO produce, before the
registrars, the certificate OF clergyman OF
trial justice.

The state Debt.

A Joint resolution was introduced IN the
House of Representatives last week, author
izing the Governor to appoint three com
missioners who should investigate the
amount and validity OF the State debt, anu
stamp officially the bonds and stocks found
to be genuine. objection was very properly
made to this resolution. 1t proposed 10
give the commissioners too much power.
None could know who and what the COM
missioners might be, and their recognition
OF any set OF bonds or stocks would emoar-
rass the Legislature, besides exciting IN the
mind OF the bondholders hopes which might
not be realized. The committee to whom
the resolution was referred consulted With
the State officers, and it was then proposed
that the commissioners should be the Gov
ernor, the Attorney General, the Treasurer,
the Comptroller, the Secretary OF State, ana
the chairmen OF the Committees OF Ways
and Means ard Finance. 1t was subse-
o1ently proposed to conine the commission
to lhe four State officers named. Such
commission would be far:more efficient than
a larger one OF uncertain material, and, as
az far as we are concerned, we should prefer
to see the investigation conducted by the
financial board, which consists OF the Cover
nor, the Treasurer and the Attorney Gene
ral This would be better than new or
ganization.
Whatever the character OF the body to
whom the investigation Of the condition OF
the debt is entrusted, it is to be hoped that
the scrutiny will be thorough and final.
This is no time for tinkering. Whether the
examination take five months or five years,
let it be 80 searching and conclusive that
the Legislature can adopt the recommends
tious OF the board with satisfaction to them
selves and Justice to the people. The work
cannot be done in day, ANY undue haste
will only result in patching up the debt,
with certainty that the process must be
repeated o year or two hence. We desire
to see an honest and impartial scrutiny OF
all the transactions Of the government in
connection with the State debt, and we
trust that the Legislature will consider Ia
vorably any practical proposition looking to
that cad.

The Fascination OF Money.

A recent English essay on the above subject
will be found applicable, In some of It's par
ticulars, to the American disposition. The
struggling professional man, says the writer,
looks on quarter OF million as Aladdin's
lamp, but II he had 1t he would, In ten years,
wonder why he could do 30 little. His first
emotion would be desire 10 make his money
quite safe; his next, unless he was abnormally
un.English, to possess "place;" and his
next. to be rid OF the worry Of careful super
vision. When he had obeyed these three in-
stlncts, he would find that he had invested his
money-the purchase Of land included-at
about three and a quarter per cent, that ne
had two establishments to keep up, that he
had lost his old scale OF calculation about
all expenses, and that the $4,000 year he
was receiving was q very moderate In
come, out of which If he gave away tenth ne
would be very liberal Indeed. The idea OF
giving on great scale would trighten him,
as il tr;ghtens Vice Chancellor Malins, who
decided, no doubt, wisely in the case before
him, that great gifts were 80 Improper that
solicitor who drew up deeds conveying them
ought to be soundly fned for lending bis skill
to assist In such deplorable acts Of weakness.
Until he reached very large high figure in
deed, the sense of wealth would not come to
him, and even when he had reached that
figure there would remain the reluctance to
part with capital and new sense OF the
difficulty Of doing anything great, that is
scenically great, out Of the surplus income.
Two millions will accomplish much, but a
years surplus, say 100000, will do but very
little. The interests of ordinary life being
gone-for, after all, 1t is difficult to work any
thing except politics when the money pay
ment for the work has lost all meaning-he
would have to discover new one, and would
find IL either In accumulation, or In building,
or In buying, the latter taste which can be-
come sovereign passion. The Medlcean
habit of mind would come upon Elm like q
cloud, and he would lind that OF all hls dreams
no one could be realized without immense
self-sacrlhce, which he would have rather less
energy to make than in days when he dreamed
of making II. And yet he would not be
changed, but would only feel the old fasclna-
tlon of money In new and slightly less
Imaginative form. We are inclined to believe
that this fascination of money, this desire for
1t as an instrument of power, Increases i'm
mensely with the spread of culture and OF
what we call civilization-that so far from ils
being felt mainly by vulgar minds. 1t Is affect
Ing powerful and liberal minds far more deeply.
They realize the might OF cash much more
strongly than their Interiors. You can mark
the truth Of that sentence In the writings OF
men like Beckford, of "Anastaslus," Hope, of
Edgar Poe-a born millionaire who never had
shillIng-of Ben Jonson, of the heaps OF
modern writer's who use wealth as the instru-
ment of bliss. This spirit ls not sordid, it s
not even mean; but 1t is earthly, and 1t begins
| to be Injurious.

The Brfbing Pennsylvanians.

CLAYTON of Arkansas, Caldwell OF Kansas,
and "Ronest" John Patterson, OF South
Carolina-the three Senators who are
charged with buying their election-are all
natives OF Pennsylvania, very much to the
disgust OF the Union League OF that State,
which organization cannot forgive corrup-
ZIONIST who is simple enough to be found
out.
The Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tlens OF the United States Senate have
begun an inquiry into the money transac-
tions connected with the election OF Cald-
we'll, and the Nationsays that ia similar in
"ouiry will be moved when Mr.. Patterson,
"who stands publicly accused OF having
"bought bis way through the Legislature OF
.South Carolina, presents himself in the
.Senate." About Caldwell we know very
little, but Mr.. Patterson will certainly be
convicted, il thu men whom he tampered
with stand firm. And if they do, as we be-
lieve they will, G monument as high as the
twin flags on the capitol will not be too
lofty for the men who insure the disgrace
OF him who has done so much to make the
Legislative halls an open market, where the
dearest interests of the people are sold to
the highest bidder.
Can the masses OF the colored people be
expected to be frugal and honest, while any
OF their chosen representatives treat vote
as commodity which the longest purse can
always buy? And who s to blame for the
venality which stalks abroad in Columbia,
save Mr.. Patterson and his companions in

leans: not even Paris herself can surpass Ihls
exuberant American city in its buoyancy. As
o consequence, nowhere on this contluent IS
the peculiar celebration of the "IWelith
Night Revellers, the Feast OF Kings, k.pI up
by procession, ball and banquet. "Ihe heVei-
lers" hold high place, not only only ior tneir
secured wealth and position, but also ior lne
liberal spirit in which they permit tne general
public to share 10 their enjoyment. Ineii
mssoues are not crude monslrositieS, out ar
ranged by artists, and usually having ceae
and consistent meaning. Ibis year tne plot
WAS composed from Auduoon's great
work. AS the renowned ornlthologist was
a native of Louisiana, 1t was with mucn
propriety that this method was chosen 10
keen his name and fame before the people.
The characters were the birds described and
illustrated by the patron saint OF the day. AS
the procession turned out of sn unfrequenteo
street, first came two heralds, sacred messen-
gers from the king, portrayed by the famiDgo'
red egret and ibis on horseback. Then ioi-
lowed the Twelfth Night Cake, mountain OF
confectionery, accompanied and guarded BY
birds, aud surmounted by a transparent Dap-
ner announcing the world of Audubon. Au'
dubon himself, with cook and Indian guide
the Lord of Misrule, with in6rnary practlce'
weddings. funerals and al variety of burlesque
were delicately and faithfully represented.
The Battle OF the Birds was prophetic. Prus'
sa and Russia tore each other in pieces, while
France and the Yankee Eagle stood apart
looking on. The Bird Club was meeting Oh
Iolly good fellows, and the MocSing biras'
choir showed up the Gilmore Jubilee win a
graceful and expressive conductor.

The Water Question.

The Columbia correspondent OF the Courier
says that Mr.. Tim Hurley is opposing the
passage OF the bill to incorporate the Charles
ton'Water and Canal Company, and 'it will
.'probably be defeated" Hurley has cog
nate bill OF his own, which he probably de-
sres to sell, but we do not think that he now
carries the Legislature in his pocket. Should
the Legislature reject the bill, whose passage
is earnestly desired by the citizens OF Charles
ton, it will be because they have no love for
this City, and not on account OF their affec-
ton for Mr.. Hurley, who committed the
double crime Of buying them up and then
boasting how easily he did it.
