THE Boston Transcript has solved a
problem which has long puzzled phioso-
piers, namely, What is the chief promoter
of happiness. 1t says: "Tbert is nothing
in this world which creates so much pleas
ure and satisfaction as the possession of
choice diamond. II well purchased, SIS it
can be, it is the only investment that fur
nishes q continual daily and nightly divi-
dsnd; for yourself, friends and others all
admire it, and the flashes of light it emits
are ever beautiful and fascinating" Blessed

No RIGHT of woman is more sacred than
her light to choose husband, yet reject
ed sutton in New York has not only shot
himself, but tried to murder another man
whom he believed to be more acceptable to
young woman of their acquaintance.
The Herald's report says: "Captain Walsh
is making every effort in his power to find
the mysterious female who has caused all
this trouble" The Philadelphia Age is at
loss to see what offsnse shs has commit
ted, that the police should he after her. In
New York, those who sell liquor are made
responsible for damage doue by those who
drink it, but there is no law YET, to make
women lesponsible for the jealousy they
inspire in their admirers.

THE BANKRUPT DISTRICT GOV
ERNMENT,

EMINENT.
The territorial government of che Dis
irict Of Columbia was created especially tc
reward the partisans of the Grant admins.
tration, and it has been piling up debt at q
fearful rate during the short time it has
been in existence. Desperate efforts have
been made by the Republican officials to
conceal the true amount Of the debt thus
created. Referring to he statement sent
from Washington some time Stree by the
Associated Press, to the effect that the debt
Of this District was but nine millions OF
dollars, Forney's Sunday Chronicle of the
Sd inst. publishes carefully tabulated
statement showing that the debt is already
seventeen millions, and that i will require
eight millions more before the present i'm
provements are completed. In despair of
paying this immense debt without the aid
Of the government, this administration pa
per moralizes as follows:
"No sane man will admit that the taxa
Die property Of the District can bear The
burden of debt of twenty-five millions, as
it will reach this figure before we get
through, and at the same time carry on the
present system of government. Our only
hope is for Congress either to assume the
whole or at least one half of our debt, and
in the future to assume the expenses of the
District over and above what is realized by
tax of one dollar and fifty cents per one
hundred dollars on taxable properly. This
the people could bear,without sacrifice, and
would be a fair proportion of what they
should be held liable for. As step toward
th reform let the present Government be
wiped out, or if the people are TO govern
let al! the officers be elected, and not hum
bug US with the miserable farce with which
we are afflicted at present, which, from its
very origin, has been the source of profit
Pacy and expense largely in excess of the
expenditures of many Of the State Govern
ments of the country. This is a subject
entirely in the hands of the people, and if
they move with the proper spirit the remedy
can be easily reached. 1t is rumored, and
in fact semi-offcially announced, that the
Governor and Board of Public Works in
tend to retire at the meeting of Congress,
giving IS an excuse that they are tired Of
the job, Or in other words, that the old ship
has more freight than she can carry, and
the best that can be done under the circum-
stances is TO scuttle her and let he 60. Well,
anything for change, even if the old craft
should have to be rebuilt"

THE Allentown, (Pa.) Chronicle men,
tions an incident, which shows how rail-
road accidents occur and the cause is char
gedto some other account. 1t states that
recently the rails at certain points on the
East Pennsylvania railroad, between that
city and Emaus, expanded by the action Of
the extreme heat to such degree that sew
eral trains had to lie over until the displaced
rails were put in order. In some places the
rails were expanded so much that they were
forced nine inches out of their proper posi-
ton.

THE Philadelphia Age of the 22d inst.
says: yesterday the main lines of rail-
roads running from this city and New York
and the West advanced their freight charges
to Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati, St..
Louis, Louisville, Memphis and interme-
diate points. The increase from this city
to Chicago Is twenty-three cents per humid
red, and a like advance to other places on
the schedule. The increase from New
York to Chicago is twenty five cents per
hundred.

A Boston capitalist, who is taxed on
property valued at halfa million dollars is
reported to have made will the other day,
and as he had no wife, children, no near re-

needy snd deserving men and women, to
whom l have given $1,000 apiece, amount

after have passed away; and possibly
