A Boy HERo.--A boy hero has been
developed in Macy -Brenza, an obscure
Hungarian village, lately visited by the
plague. Among the victims was poor
peasant woman, who left behind son
aged fifteen, but no property. In eonse-
quencc or this latter circumstance the
parish priest and the rest Of the villagers
were in no haste TO make arrangements
for her iDterment, and, in spite OF tho
prayers and tears Of the poor lad, the
body remained in the hut Two days la
ter peasant woman of property also
died, and grave was Immediately dug
to be ready for the funeral, When,ho
ever, the body was carried to the grave
yard il was found that her grave was al
ready filed in. The supcrstilious villa
gers fell on their knees and crossed them
selves, but the priest, guessing how the
matter stood, sent two peasants to the
house Of the poor parishioner 10 see
whether the corpse was there. They re-
turned, having found that the body had
been removed, and bringing the boy with
them On being asked where the body
Of his mother was, he pointed, sobbing,
to the newly made grave. saying that,
by exerting all his strength, he had drag
god the corpse to the grave, and shovel
ed in the earth.

We had been walking now for nearly
two hours, and the purple light of morn
ing began to tinge the tops Of the distant
hills. Then the heavens were sufru.ed
with a rich crimson hue which shot up
ward in brilliant rays TO the very zenith,
and deepened in fire and intensity as it
touched the horizon.
I'VE part here, SeRors, said Marichi-

"Stay, Marichita, cried Charlie,
springing forward and sciziag her by the
hand "you shall not 60 back into that

Let us at least leave you in safety there !;

her hands upon Charles shoulders, she
mo,ioned him to kncel bcfofs her, and,
taking small dagger from her girdlc, she
severed one of the short fair curls that
lay so thick upon his head Thrustlng
it into her bosom, she turned, and with

We never saw her again; but we heard

EARLY LIFE OF CAPTAIN JACK

EARLY LIFE OF CAPTAIN JAIh
it is related that in the year 1851 he went
to Canonvlle in Oregon. to the house of
Mrs Joseph Knott, He was one of the
Rogue River Indians, and belonged to
the tribe then located on Con creek. Mrs.
Knett noticed that he appeared to be an
active, keen, shrewd.looking boy, and
with tho consent Of her husband took
him to raise. With them he remained
for several years. As soon as the boy
was assured that they intended to keep
him, he insisted on having Boston /"
name, as hs called it, and wished to be
named after the best-looking OF Mrs.
Knott's children. This being apprsciat-
cd by the mother, she decided TO name
him after her son-thcr ages apparently
being about the saine--and this son was
j. Knott, better known as Jack Knott, of
saloon fame. The boys grew mp togc,h
er, and many were the days they spent
together in the sports Of the chase. On
one occasion after hc bad been with them
some time, hs became offended because
he was told to leave the room, and load.
cd his rifle with the intention OF shooting
Ieyi Knstt. bat was discovered in season
to prcven, his design. This circumstance
led to his expulsion rom the family, and
from that to the present time he has not
been seen by them, except in lSoa, the
year in which he murdered Mrs. Harris,
after which Jack went TO the Goose lake
country His mother was full sisteref
Rogue River John, who attempted to
seize the steamer Columbia while she lay
at anchor in the harbor of Crescent city,
and also hali.sistcr to the war chief
Sam, of the same tribe, and Chief Joe,
who received his appelaton from having
fought Gen Joe Lane.

dition to the circulation by drawing on the
| $44, ,000, 900 reserve.
Mr.. Morton replied in the affirmative
and stated that the policy was beneficial to
| the country. The suspension Of specie
| payments had generally been a remedy for
a panic, not resumption. He wished to be
| understood that the true relief for panics
during the last hundred years had not been
| resumption nor contraction, and he did not
believe they would cure ours. He favored
small addition to the volume OF currency
as true remedy. The Government did all
in its power to relieve the panic at the be-
ginning, and tie issue of a part Of the forty
four millions reserve did much to restore
confidence. The very knowledge that the
currency was being enlarged induced the
people to put their money out. lie be-
lieved the pf nc could be shortened, and
every day that it was so lessened would be
a great blessing. The English and French
Governments never let panics run their
course, but did all in their power to short
en- them. He believed that if the Govern
ment had inthe beginningput out the whole
of the forty-four million reserve, the panic
would have been stopped Immediately.
The President and Secretary of the Treas
ury however, anticipated that there would
be falling off in the revenues of the Gov
erument and the money would be needed
to carry it on.
Mr.. Carpenter introduced bill to pro
vide for printing for the United States SUI
preme Court. Referred.
Mr.. Bogy gave notice that he would ad-
dress the Senate tomorrow on the resolu-
tion reported from the Finance Committee.
AT 3 o'clock the Senate welt into execu-
tive session.
= AT 5o'clock the doors re-opened and a
resolution to adjourn over during the holi-
days was received from the House.

1t could not be considered except by
consent.
The chair over ruled the point Of order.
The resolution having been read was be-
fore the Senate and must be disposed of in
some way.

should be amended so as TO provide for adj
lOurnment next Tuesday.

Nullbtl
No. Of No. Idle Last
Men. Now Idle. Year.


We are disposed to attach credit to
this exhibit, Notwithstanding the csti-
mated number Of idle persons is not
one tenth as great as the number pla-
cardod on the walls Of Cooper Insti-
tute on the occasion of the meeting
The Times thinks that I,5O0 will cover
the number now idle who do not belong
to the unions. Therefore, l.. 800 in all
probability more nearly expresses the
true number than 10000. The Times
concludes as follows:
"On a calm review Of the whole sub
Ject Of employment, SO far as it relates
to our working men, it may safely be
said that their position is not at all 50
bad as their leaders would have the
public believe; that although there are
about 10000 unemployed. this number
IS not so far IN excess Of the average
number of working men unemployed at
this period Of the year as to create any
unnecessary alarm, when it is consid-
cred that half Of this number. at least.
are skilled mechanics, who have been
hitherto earning from So to 81 per day,
and who ought to be in a position to
meet a bad season when it arrives"
We can easily perceive with what
motives the leaders of the meeting
who, according to the Times, were not
working-menl, choose TO exaggeratc the
woes Of the people. To them rcvolu-
ton is a luxury. The commune of
Europe loves revolution, and knows
nothing but discomfort. Socialism is
obviously reaching our shores. The in
sidious wiles Of foreign influence,
against which Washington conjured
his people to remain constantly awake,
are courting the American populace af-
ter more than one fashion. As an or
der-loving people, we should discour-
age this evil, which, though yet mere
germ, will, if permitted, grow to
tree Of bitter fruit. We have no word
of disapproval for concerted, intelligent
action on the part Of laborcrs TO guard
their rights and to make the most OF
their earnings, but we hesitate not to
assert, that radical socialism is worse
than monarchy and aristocracy. 1t
will oftencr lead to anarchy, than mon
archy viii to despotsm.

wILEs OF FOREIGN INFLUENCE.

The workmen's rally in New York on
the llth inst. has provoked considera-
BILE discussion from the press of that
city, and has induced theJTinaes to in
vestigate the actual condition of the
industrial classes. A reporter Of that
paper was engaged three days in ascer-
tanning the number Of unemployed ar
tisans, and purposcly drew his infor-
nation from parties connected with
the trades unions. The number of
unemployed persons now idle in the
city, as given out at the mass meeting,
was 10000. The Times says this esti-
mate was grossly exaggerated, and
gives the following table as the result
Of careful investigation:
