fmpertinencs Of ignorance

Two members Of the royal family of Eng
land have distinguished themselves by
utterances which have become historical
from sheer sublimity Of ignorance. ''The
poor can not gec bread" said the beautiful
princess. ''then why don's they eat pound
cake'' -" Starvingw exclaimed . noble
duke, impossible, with pineapples sold IN
the market at . guinea piecsr'

blood OF these intellectual ornaments flows,
but if such thing does exist their descend

With these remarks, the following eS.rse:
explains itself:

The New Orleans REPUBLICAN wants 20
know why that city, within three days sail
OF the land of silver mines, gets little or
none OF tho $l7 ,503,7 coined last year in
Mexico. The conundrum is easily an.
swered. II is because New Orleans has
used no silver as currency. Once let the
banks. business houses, manufacturers and
steamboatmen of that city use slver-as
they can now readily do-for the smaller
transactions Of business, and the flow of
silver from Mexico would be as steady as
the flow Of the Mississippi to the gulf.

Latest News from Bahia.
The Navy Department has received ad-
vices from Rear Admiral William Badger
Taylor. of the tag ship Lancaster, under
date of Bahia, Brazil. September q. in
which he says:
Upon my arrival here We found in port
her Britannia majesty's ship Challenger en-
gagged in scientific expedition, having on
board Professor c. Wyville Thompson, of
the University Of Edinburg, which sailed
on the twenty fifth instant, for the Antarc-
tic ocean, with a view of examining some
spot favorable for observing the transit
Of Venus in 1874. Yesterday morning
received information that the British
mail packet Cotopaxio was on shore
about fifteen miles from this port. /
proceeded at once to her assistance, and
during the night received on board 1870 of
the passengers, with their baggage, and
about $250,OOO of treasure. The draft of
my ship was too great to approach near
enough to haul Off the Cotopaxio. but left
on board OF her a force Of five officers and
fifty men. The ship was got atiOat next
morning. The health throughout my COM
mand is excellent.
Some yellow fever prevails here.
A steamer called the Edward Everett,
carrying the American flag and owned by

of our minister.

The Late Lieutenau, Woodruff,

The following order has been Dromul-
gated by the head of the engineer corps in
Washington. in honor of this gallant officer,
who died recently at Shreveport.
General Orders Ne. 81
HEADsuARrERs Corps OF EgGIsKERs,
washington, d. C., October Il, 1873.
1t has become the painful duty of the
Brigadier General commanding to an
nouce to the corps of engineers the death
of a brother officer, First Lieutenant Eu-
gene A. Woodruff, who died of yellow fever
at Shreveport, Louisiana, on Tuesday even
ing, September 30, 1873
Although authorized to withdraw from
that region on the approach of the sickly
season, Lieutenant Woodruff, in his devo-
tion to the public service, remained there,
and from the outbreak of the recent ep-
demic at Shreveport until he was prostrated
with the disease was unremitting in his per-
sonal exertions for the sick, taking his place
as nurse, and encouraging others by pre-
cept and example. His death was the i'm
mediate result OF too early attempt, after
his apparent recovery, to renew his labors
for the care of the sick.
The papers of Shreveport chronicled his
death as public calamity, saying, "He
died blessed martyr to the cause of hu-
manity." ..
As testimony of respect for the de-
ceased, the officers of the corps will wear
the usual badge of mourning for thirty days.

one Office and book keeper in the other,
so that the guards thrown around the treas
ury by law--and which were seemingly so
framed as to render fraud impossible
were a mere spiders web, so long as the
men elected to protect the state gave up
the business TO irresponsible clerks. The
testimony in the case of Taintor, tho same
day disclosed the same state of facts. The
bank was given up entirely to his hands ;
the president and directors knowing no
more about its condition than man re-
siding in Mendon. Few people, in city OF
country, live that are not possessed with
the desire for wealth; and the mass of
them will readily embrace every seeming
opportunity for its requirement. Tho
opportunity is, apparently, given and
seized, and we all know the result. 1t is
terrible temptation to place before man
and woe be to the men, who, by their nc
| glcct lure on these young men to dcstruc

sponsibiity and the same general oversight
| as now, continues, VIC believe Vernon

dollars. and very little was called for The
payment for the first day amounted to
about one hundred dollars and if this is

in the course of seven years, the hall mil
lion dollars of silver, now held at the trea-
sury, will Get into circulation. We are in
clincd to think that if the people. general
". preferred silver change TO use instead
of fractional currency, the drain would
have been very much larger, and that the
silver. now on hand. would soon be en-
hausled We want that which we cannot
get. and SO it was with silver. When, how
ever. we can obtain silver as easily as we
can government "shnplnstcrs," who wants
