ABOUT ANOTHER FIFTEEN MILLION
DOII1RQ

The English Government owes, or did owe,
the United States Government $15,5OO,OOO, that
beng the amount of the Alabama award. 1t
is pretended that it would have been an ope-
ration of vast difficulty to transfer this sum
from the Bank of England to the U. s. Sub
Treasury in New-York. For the life of us
we cannot see any more difficulty in it than
in transferring q similar sum from the credit
of private banking firm in London to that.
say, of the president and directors of the Cen
trail and Hudson River Railroad Company
in New-York. Again the United States
Government wants to call in and cancel with
the money an equal amount of five-twenty
bonds and issue new fives in their place.
That is to say, it wants to invest the amount
Of the Award in its own five per cent bonds
until Congress shall provide for the DISPOSE
ton of the fund. This, too, appears to us a
matter easy enough to effect. The Secretary
of the Treasury could call in the old bonds
for redemption in the usual way and place
S155OO,0O0 of the new bonds to the credit of
a special trust fund for the benefit of the
sufferers by the Alabama.
We now proceed to state for the informa-
ton of our readers the method which the
United States Government has adopted to ac-
complish these simple, everyday operations.
Our information is obtained from The London
Times and from various Washington dispatches
to sundry newspapers. 1. For some weeks
past the English Government has been paying
over the award to our old friends, the Syndi-
cate. 2. The Syndicate use the money in buy

Yesterday the cholera, as it is called, was re-
ported in South Western Indiana, where over
thirty cases have been noted. Next, the dis
ease appears in Ohio, and nine deaths have
occurred in the State Penitentiary at Column
bus, and a few cases are reported at Cincin-
natl. This spread Of the disorder-what-
ever it is-from the Southwest, will be
considered by many as its sure march eastward.
Nevertheless, it must be noted that nearly all
accounts agree in diagnosis of the disease
that does not strengthen the theory that this
is Asiatic cholera. Whether it be anything
more than an acute form of the cholera
morbus remains to be seen. AT any rate, 1t
is disappearing from the region where it first
reused alarm and we who dwell by the
Atlantic seaboard have ample warning that
there should be no relaxation of vigilance at

The Prohibitory Law has met with the usual fatal
ity in Rhode Island. The Supreme Court has de-
clared about one hundred complaints against liquor
sellers for single sales to be null and void for want
of averment that the liquor sold was not liquor of

laws. This would seem to make a hole in the stat

Nothing can possibly happen in England which

not surprised to learn that the visit Of tic Shah

come forth from the East-frOm the suns rising"

Of DR.. Cumming that the ten lost tribes are
now in the dOminiOns of these mOnarchs, whose

tribes, who have remained faithful to the law Of
Moses. What thenf Why then may be expected

Mrs Macarthur Of Los Angeles in California has
Just given the highest sanction to the name of her
city, 1t must DO a town Of angels where the wives
regard their responsibilities in the severe and unre
lentng light made evident by Mrs Macarthur. Her
husband was dissatisfied with his breakfast, and ex-
pressed his disapproval in that calm and magisteria
way recognized as tho right of the noble sex. The
dispatches do not state in what the breakfast was
deficient. Perhaps the sausage was so much over
done that all canine flavor was lost Perhaps the
slap-acks had lost their earlier buoyancy or tho bis
cults, like those classic ones immOrtalized in
the Had Of Sandy Bar, had too much

Macarthur found grounds for criticism in
his coffee. But whatever may have been the
cause of his cOndemnatOry Judgment, it was mani
testify recognized by Mrs Macarthur as just and ire
yersible She concluded that her usefulness as a
housekeeper was at an end. She was doubtless, like
all occidentas, deeply read in japanese history and
Jurisprudence, and saw nothing before her but har-
kiri. The laws of her country forbid polyGamy.
She had done her best to get satisfactory break
fast and had failed. The inevitable logic Of the
situation was that her husband could not sit down
to seemly matutnal repast until she had made o
vacancy in the conjugal Office. Her resolution
was promptly taken. She swallowed the
dose of strychnine which appears to be
Kept for such emergencies in all well-cOn-
Quoted Western families, and Mr. Macarthur
is now wdower. There is one paragraph in the
dispatch which Is not easy TO understand. 1t states
that judicial investigation into the conduct of the
husband is demanded II can scarcely be possible
that the coroners jury is 10 sit the breakfast aad

1t is pity that the swelling epilogue 70 the Colo

them. Mr.. SAKE once observed thai every family
limo among us runs somewhere, either into hemp, OF
the waxed end Of plebeian vocation II IS certain
that every affair of honor in day is to touch
somewhere upon piece of hopeless vulgarity or
rowdyism. 1t seems that Wintersmith was looking
for Cole and Cole for Wintersmith, each
with the friendliest intentions. But when
they met, owing to one Of those abeHa-
tons Of vision and memory which beset
the average heightened Tennesseean when the day
IS declining, instead of rushing INTO each others
arms, they mistook each others names, and each
considered the other bore. Naturally, therefore,
they fell first 10 the Of language, and then IN
that Of their sticks, and things done which
called for much shedding Of ink and assumption Of
dignity. The seconds came in and also sent blood
less cartels, and the State thrilled and made
