deaf Of money We hope 1t does. not come
ont Of the depleted treasury Of :he State
on ,ecgraphs to the United States Attor-
ncv General to assute him Of the past
and future payment Of the interest on the
bonded debt. Even in such small 5usi
ness as this our usurping Governor finds
it impossible to be exact, not to say truth
full About one half only of the January
interest was paid.--a very large portion OF
the bonds being left unpaid on account Of
an injunction affirming their uaconstitu
tionality and the granting Of a rehearing
of a judgment dismissing that injunction
on the last day Of the. term oflhe Supreme
Court. .....s .t :...
But even granting the truth Of this state
ment, our supposititious Governor forgets
to add that while thus paying the coupons
of the bonded debt, he has rtpudiatei the
floating debt of the previous State Admin
istration. And then. Of what concern or
business is it to NJ. Attorney General Will
liains whether our bonded interest is paid
OF no, O. Is he holder OF State bonds! !!
We sincerely hope he is, AS we owe him a
grudge for his interference in our affairs,
and his gross indignity to our citizens.
But aside from such merely private inter
est, I'VE are still pazTled TO know why
such information should be so expensive
" comm unicated to the law officer Of the
Federal Government OF what value or
use can it be- to him Z What bearing
can it have upon the law questions which
are alone referred to the Attorney Ge9eral

How, too, can it influence the deterrni.
nations Of the purely political questions
relating to the controversy in our State
Does it make Kellogg any less law'ess

State, that the interest on the State bonds
are paid I Does that, fact justify the in

the exception Of an umbrella, was
followed there being 40 police
man in sight-by fierce and
vengeful tiger, or some such

been. a rhinoccros or chimpan-
zee-it is immatcrial. The AMI
NAL was about to springs, upon
her-it was the kind of animal
that springs, which we forget
about-when, with great pre-
scnce of mind, she opened her
umbrella suddenly and unexpect- .
edly-like right in his face, and
eyes, just as you, may have seen
a middle aged woman burst out
Of q dry goods store sometimes !,
with an umbrella in front of her,
which she opens into the face of
some gentlemanly- per
son who isn't expecting her. The
wild beast was so exasperated
that he turned round and went
away. Since then old ladies cross
the Descr:: of Sahara habitually,
carrying umbrellas, whatever the
weather probabilities are. ,'s.

Miss LOGAN 1SaLEcTURE AGAIS.-Thc Ice.
lures Of Olive Logan have been received
with so much favor and heard with such in
crossing interest that but for the rainy wea.
ther last night she would have had Il perfect
ovation. AS it was, however, the audience
was large, fashionable, and eminently select.
Tie lecture on Passions is decidedly the best
in Miss Logan's repertoire. 1t is full of pure
and wholesome thoughts, and abounds in
eloquent passages, striking imagery, and
amusing illustrations. It cannot but fall
with good effect upon any auditor. We
were not surprised, therefore, to hear that
