ONE OF THE LOST ARTs.-The new discov-
cries in Egypt will add plausibility to Wen
dell Phillips lecture on &c The Lost Arts. -
1t now appears that the smelling of iron was
carried on in Egypt from the very earliest
period. Mr.. Charles Vincent in an English
scientific Journal sets forth some new facts in
reference to this subject ''In the sepulchres
of Thebes may he found delineations of butch
ers sharpening their knives on round bars of
iron attached to their aprons. The blades of
the knives are painted blue, which fact proves
that they were of steel, for in the tomb of
Rameses III, this color is used to indicate
steel, bronze being represented by red. An
English gentleman has recently discovered
near the walls of Moses, by the Red Sea, the
remains of iron works so vast that they must
have employed thousands of workmen. Near
the works are to be found the ruins of a tenn
pie and of Il barraek for the soldiers protecting
or keeping in order the workmen. These
works are supposed to be at least 5000 years
old.

A VIILAIN.--A New York correspondent
Of the Trenton True american says:
The Detective Office at Police Headquarters
having received letters from gentlemen of re-
spcctability, complaining of insults to their
daughters at the hands of scoundrel who
frequented the entrances to the public schools
for his nefarious purpose, sharp look out
was instituted for the fellow and on Tuesday
morning he was arrested at the door of q
Grammar school in 34th street, while handing
to one of the female pupils there note. He
gives his name as Morris Fanham, though he
frequently adopts an alias. On his person
were found letters addressed to and received
from young ladies in Port Jcrvis. Pennington,
Trenton, Jersey City. New York and New Ha-
ven. This correspondence clearly showed that
Fanham's object was to obtain recruits for
houses of ill-fame, and judging from me.
moranda entered upon a notebook, he has
been toierably successful in his infamous
pursuit. In addition to the letters and book.
he had a list of young ladies with whom a
correspondence could be opened. Farnham
was quite indignant when arrested, but soon
toned down oil being locked mp in cell in the
Tombs.

The editors of Missouri have recently held
a convention. AS is usual on such occasions,
there was big gathering of brains. But
nothing more sensible was resolved by the
editors than the following "Thata man has
the same right to walk into grocery store and
order barrel of sugar or sack of coffee, or
ino law office and demand legal opinion
from its occupant, or into an undertakers and
request a coffin, without expecting to pay for
their respective wares or services, as in news
paper Office and demand the use of its brains
and muscle and type. without a thought of
recompense.' People who do walk into a
newspaper Office and make that sort of de-
mand--and it is an everyday oeourrencc--are
atfec'ionately recommended to ponder the fore
going.

Stokes three trials are quite thrown in the
shade by Mrs. Glen, of Indiana, who is about
to undergo her fifth trial for murder. She was
indicted ON charge Of killing two people--her
husband and Nancy Young She was first
tried in December, 1868. and the jury disa-
greed. In February, 1866, she was tried a
second time and convicted of murder In the
second degree. The case was appealed and
reversed on a technicality.. These first two
trials were for the murder of Nancy Young.
Being thus acquitted Of this charge by the
Supreme Court, the woman was brought to
trial for the murder Of her husband A
change OF venue was TAKEN and in the Fall
of 1871 she was tried in Boone county and the
Jury disagreed. III June, 1872, she was tried
again on the same Indictment before one Of
the falrest Judges In the State. found guilty of
murder IN the second degree, and sentenced
to the penitentiary for life. This verdict the
Supreme Court lately reversed, and hence tho
fifth trial.

The State Department at Washington de-
cline to make public any of the evidence touch
ing the Vienna scandal. Mr.. Fish says if
his wants to examine the papers he can do so.
This is a strange course, in the face of Gen.
Van Buren's assertion that any one who AYERS
that he has done what is wrong in this matter
is a cowardly liar and scoundrel." Those
the etiquette that surrounds the State depart
ment, will be very apt to conclude that this is
the best possible mode that can be devised of
getting out of an unpleasant position.

took testimony and were about rendering n

The theory that Gen. Grant is dictator and
that Congress only registers his decree, has
long been favorite one with the opposition.
Yet it is wholly inconsistent with the facts
Gen. Grant asked Congress to embody civil
service reform in law, but ii refused. He ask
ed them to take some action in the Louisiana
matter but it did not. He urged it to pass
some measure to facilitate the operation of
the Federal laws in Utah. But it omitted
to do SO. The consequences which the Pres
ident predicted have come about. The courts
are substantially at a stand, because legal jul
ries cannot be obtained, and the criminal law
of the Territories is as good as void for the
time being. Nor is there any apparent RENE
dy available until the opening of congress-
Neao York Times.

MORE ARRIvALs.-W before last another
wave of the immigration flood reached our
shores, in the shape of some $4,000 foreigners
of all nationalities. Both steamers and sail
ers are crowded with this class of passengers.
Germany sends the largest number, then Irish,
Swedes, Norwegians, English and Scotch
Frenchmen are also coming in increased num-
bers.. About $50 900 came in 1872, but this
year it looks as if the figure would reach 600,-
600. popularity of this modern influx is
that few of them stay in the Atlantic cities,
but the majority go West. The care Of these
people is now SO we'll organized by help of
American agents stationed in Europe, that
they can provide with through tickets for all
the great points in the West, and so switch off
in Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Kansas.

The Republicans of Maine expressed the
judgment Of their brethren everywhere by the
resolutions of their State Convention last
week. They protested against granting
another acre Of the public lands to railroad OF
canal companies; they declare the party will
interpose no shield to. protect men who have
proved faithlcss to their trusts; they denounce
g Credit Mobilier' transactions in every
form, and demand that the evils of private or
special legislation shall be uprooted. That is
exactly how Republicans feel in New Jersey,
The Maine Convention denounced most stern
ly the ..back pay . transaction in Congress as
gross violation of political honesty, and
called for the immediate repeal of the disgrace
full and odious act.

A correspondent of the New York Times es-
Inmates the coming peach crop in Delaware at
100000 baskets. The falling off from the
last years crop in Newcastle county is fully
1000, 600 baskets, but this is made up in Kent
and Sussex, while the Maryland crop is a large
increase on that of last season He concludes
that. so far as the peninsula is concerned. the
crop Of peaches will exceed that of last year
by fully 100000 baskets but as reports from
New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania in
dictate an entire failure of the crop in those
States, peaches may not be SO abundant as they
were then.

Mr.. Zittle-The question whether
license to sell Neutrality-suspicious. should
be granted, which was before the in
dustrial Association" of this place, was
indefinitely postponed. This is tanta-
mount to d dismissal of the subject. 1t
was doubtless brought about by the ma
nipulations of some who. like Demetius
of old, thought their craft i'll danger,
from the agitation Of the question :;
more especially if the anti-license prin-
ciple should triumph.
This license question is very grave
one. The principle in itself is at fault
as it stands on the statute book. The
idea of the law licensing and manutac-
turing that, which most Of all else helps
to break it. amounts to reductio nd a0-
smdum. 1t is, as if a man should put
into the hands Of another club to beat
out his brains. The law cries peace,
peace, when by its own permission and
protection there exists a state OF things
in which there is no peace. Its spirit Is
fatty contradicted by its practice, stamp
inc it with weakness and folly. 1t IS
no better on the principle Of political
economy. If the traffic is legalized TO
raise a revenue, the pauperiSm produced
bv it and the criminal or state cases
growing out of it, over balance by far
In the taxation to sustain its evils, the
receipts of money from its support.
Then the law has against it, the immoral
and debasing effects of the traffic. 1t
upholds that, which beyond every thing
else, is sowing the seed Of immortality
and unrighteousness' 1t corupts the
young, debauches the middle aged, and
brings gray hairs to the grave in sorrow
and anguish. And yet, am not pre-
pared to admit, that the law should
have nothing to do with it ? That in
some way it should not come under It's
perview To ignore it entirely and
permit its sale and use I'D Hbitum would
be worse state than the first. 1t is a
matter of necessity that the law take
hold of it in some way. Still further, If
it be a thing Of merchandise, for the law
to confine its sale to one or two parties
in a community or communities would
be an unfair discrimination, partial and
unjust 1t is knotty question | think
and how to unite the difficulty has puz-
zled Legislators and moralists. To my
mind the most effectual way to meet
and manage it's to adopt what's known
as the Ohio or Illinois law. Put the
seller under a heavy bond, fence him
with stringent regulations and hold him
under good security, responsible for the
