Mississippi Bonds.

Away back in 1887 the State of Missis-
sippi borrowed, in New York and Europe,
the sum Of 100000, and gave her bonds
as evidence of Indebtedness This money
was borrowed for the purpose of lending
it to the planters and business men of the
State. For this purpose it was placed in
the Union and the Planters banks and
gradually loaned out in sums of 81 900
and upward. The plan looked like good
one. Here were business men ana plant
ers getting money at low rate, and at the
same time the State was deemed secure
from loss. Money was plenty and every
body was happy, and the wonder was why
the consummate plan to make "easy
times" had not been thought of before
But as the notes fell due they were not
met promptly. Some were not met at all
Suits were brought, the lawyers had fat
fees, hard times came, and the banks
broke. The money was frittered and
loaned and fooled away. The Legislature,
to its everlasting disgrace be it said, took
advantage of some tritiing technicalities
and repudiated the whole debt. Since
that time the spectre of the repudiated
bonds has hung like the sword of Dam
ocles over Mississippi. In every cam
paign they come up, and in every market
in the world Mississippi suffered. Her
credit has been third-rate ever since. No
one has faith in her promises to pay. AS
a mere matter of economy it would have
been better to have paid that debt when
first due, for certainly the State has suf-
cred two-fold in consequence of the re-
pudiation. The bonds have been hawked
about ever since, at from two to three
cents on the dollar, according as the hopes
of payment always slim, rose and fell.
The principal and interest now amount to
nearly $4,000, 000-Cancinnati CONNER

Mrs. Ham, of Canterbury, Mass, who
was rendered speechless by shock OF
lightning in July, 1872, has had her voice
restored by the birth OF child.
AT Iowa Falls, the other day, team

An employe Of a Detroit banking
house was shut in vault the other oay,
and remained there several hours. lie
shouted and made all the noise he cou!d,
but the clerks did not hear him. Finally
being missed and search being maze, he
was found nearly suffocated from 1oui
air.
A party of Auburn Qnd.) ladies recent
ly went out hunting, accompanied by
Young son of Isaac Ditmar. The BOY
climbed hickory tree for the purpose OF
shaking down the nuts, and when almost
at the top became dizzy, let go his hold
and fell, striking a log underneath the
tree, killing him instantly.
A Young man named Grandsinger &C
cidentally shot himself the other morning
while out bunting near Walton, Ind, with
another young man. They were seated
on the railroad track, cracking and eat
ing nuts. Grandsinger had his gun lying
on the track. He started to get up, and
pulled his gun toward him. The ham
mer caught on rail- causing the gun TO
go off. The shot took effect in his breast.
He died in short time.
"A curious case of suicide occurred In
the New Hampshire State Psison at Con
cord, recently. The man had been SEN
fenced for a comparatively short time
only, but in order to escape work he re-
sorted to various means for making him
self sick 1t was found that he had sew
eral times been seen to take handfuls OF
sand, which had fallen to the floor from a
sand-paper wheel, and swallowed it. The
result was fatal. Had it not been for his
sickness he would have been at liberty to
leave the prison by the expiration of his
term before his death.
Near Oakland, Miss, on the Missis-
sippi & Tennessee Railroad, recently, a
nOn-eXplOsive Oil-vender, name not asceT-
tanned, was burned to death by an explo-
sion of can of the fluid. The man was
sitting in a passenger coach, and had with
him several cans of the oil, when the con-
ductor entered the car with lighted
lamp, which is supposed to have ignited
the gas emitted from the leaking can. 1t
was with great difficulty that the man
was extricated from the flames and the
car saved from destruction. He died soon
after being taken from the car.
"A few days since, J. W. Keene, of
Pembroke, N. Y, took his mare from the
barn, leaving two months colt behind.
On his return, some two hours after, he
found the colt on the roof Of the barn.
Being unable to follow the mare, it had
sought some means of escape. In the
first place it had gone up flight of
stalrs-tifteen steps-then over the hay
NOW, and out of a window in the gable
end OF the barn, on to half roof. From
this elevation it worked its way to the
roof of the main barn, which is very
steep; then it returned to the halfroof,
whence, on the return of the mother, it
jumped to the ground, distance of four
teen feet, a feat which it accomplished
without being the least injured.

Improved Method of Administering
Medicine.

An ingenious method of administering
certain medicines, which possibly is not
entirely new, has lately been suggested
by Limousin, of Paris. This consists in
the preparation of little disks of tough,
unleavened bread, which are punched out
with die, and embossed SO as to have
depression in the center, in which the
medicine to be administered is placed,
and then covered with thin plate OF the
same material. The name of the medl-
cine and the dose are stamped on the
disk. When needed for use, one Tor
more) of these disks is placed in a tea
spoon with some water, until slightly
softened, and it may then be swallowed
without leaving any taste of the medicine
in the mouth. 1t is claimed by the IN
ventor that this method is particularly
adapted for the administration of bitter
substances, such as sulphate of quinlne,
rhubarb, aloes, ETC., as well as for those
that are readily alterable by the air, IKE
reduced iron, bromide Of potassium, etc.

DOMESTIC.

A special telegram from Washington of the
18th says the absorbing topic of conversation
was the shooting of ex-senator Pomeroy by
ex-Representative Martin F. Conway, of Kan
sas, on one of the streets of that city. The
following are the facts Pomeroy was walking
along New York avenue, this afternoon, and,
when near the corner of 14th street, he saw
Conway standing, evidently awaiting him.
When he was within four feet OF
Conway, the latter drew revolver
and fred three shots in quick success

HAMILTON FISH Secretary of State.
Advices from New York of the 14th say
| that on that day there had been another furry
| in the stock market, and securities were
| slaughtered in a discouraging manner, the
| losses being heavier and the feeling worse
| than at at any time since the panic The great
decline was due to the straits to which brok ers
are reduced by their inability to secure loans
| Prices fell from four to ten per cent, and
several failures had been announced. New
York Central had fallen to S2115, and this was
taken as a sign of Vanderbilt's inability to
bolster it up, it having always been
his policy to hold up that stock, no matter
what the consequence was to other stocks.
| Western Union, another of the stocks in which
Vanderbilt is interested, fell to 4914s, and Lake
Shore to 59$s. The houses of Burger, Hurl-
burt Il Livingstone; Gillespie, Trowbridge &,
Co.; Whittemore, and VIM. Hoge d Co. had
suspended.
Publication was made, in the New York
Euening Post of the 14th, of letter from
President Grant, in which he says of his letter
to Anthony and Claflin:

would give all the aid in its power, keeping in

100000 of reserve notes in the Treasury would be

pose of showing that the means are at hand to
