present condition, and to discontinue all i'm
provements and embellishments of an elabo-
rate nature until we are better off financially
than at present. Colonel Stebbins, as an enthu-
sast In all that pertains to the Central Park and
as gentleman of refined taste and of poetic
turn OF mind, would no doubt desire to see all
the beautiful but costly projects that have
been conceived in regard to the Park COM
pieted, including such an aquarium as the
splendid one at Brighton, in England. But
many plain, matter of fact men would prefer
that the money these works will cost should be
expended on repaving streets outside the Park,
ana IN making 'Rotten Row" inside the
Park. This Is mere matter Of opinion,
however, and no sensible person would
desire to embarrass the Park Department in
any improper manner, or to discontinue any
perishable work. On the whole the members
OF the Board of Apportionment, to whom we
owe the general reductions made in the tax
list for 1874, are entitled to the thanks of the
community. 1t is to be hoped they will per-
severe in their effort to reduce the public
expenditures wherever economy is desirable,
and that they will apply the pruning knife to
the several departments of the city govern
ment yet more effectually next year.

JOHN

\ reporter OF the St. Louis Globe has
been interviewing John Mccullough,
C%alifornia's favorite, on bis personal
acquaintance with Ned" Forrest, AID
tells how Mr.. Mccullough got his first
start in the profession from that gen.
tleman. The interview throws con>id-
cradle light upon the personal pecu-
liarities of the great tragedian from a
friendly standpoint, and though the in
terviewed denies nothing of the de>-
p6ic disposition of Mr.. Forrest when
he had once conceived a hate for any
one, he softens the asperity Of judgment
against him by the claim that he was
n of the most tolerant and kind OF
patrons to the weak and TO those who
needed his aid in the profession. Me.
Cullough loves the memory of Forrest
1t seems natural that he should be hi:
successor.

4 NOVEL FURNACE.

A traveller in North Carolina gives
a description of a furnace built at
Buckhorn during the war. This
furnace. he says, was a model of its
kind. being constructed at a cost of
5000 in gold, and making from
four to five tons Of iron per day. 1t
was stone to just above the hearth,
thence up was merely a frame work of
timber, with a lining OF brick the space
being filled with packed clay. When
burned by General Sherman it stood
as n solid brick. 1t was a success
in every respect, and turned out about
300 tons Of pig iron in sixty running
days, but it was managed and run by
a practical Scotchman named John Col
vile. The North Carolina style OF
furnace would hardly serve the pur-
pose of our Eureka 8 elters.

of what are known as spiritual phe-

we reproduce the annexed from the
local columns of the Record. The re-

LEGISLATION FOR UTAH.

The Washington correspondent of
the New York Tribune makes the fol-
lowing allusion 10 n of the manv
bills pending i'll Congress, relative TO
Utah affairs:
\ minority of the members of the
House Committee on Territories
strongly oppose the Utah Persecution
bill, recently reported by the Chair
man. Mr.. Mckee. They are satisfied
from the evidence before the Commit
tee that the bill would confer danger
Gus n ~tNrannlcal powers upon a few
Federal office holders, and would place
the personal liberty and property OF a
majority OF all the citizens of the Ter
rItory III the hands of a few persons
hostile TO hem. They SUSPECT that
bidder beneath the avowed purpose of
the bill 10 exterminate polvgamv, is a
scheme on the part of a .'Gentilc';
Ring 10 blackmail all the wealthy Nor
mons. The bill gives the Governor.
Marshal and District Attorney and their
deputies power so to organize the courtS
throughout the Territory as TO convict
all the polygamist Mormons whom
they Wish 10 convict. to imprison
them in military prisons, and to con-
ii>'otc tAtit rupert DV means OF

called wives. II the bill were not liable
to DO made the instrument of cruel
and unwarrp ntahle persecution, the
minority hold that it is Objectionable
because it takes away from the people
Of Utah all privileges OF self-govern-
ment. The minority bill. prepared by
Judge Crounse of Neba>ka, provides
Il more efficient judicial system for the
Territory by increasing the number of
Federal Judges from three to five, and
providing for the division of the Ter
ritory into five judicial districts, i'll each
Of which a judge shall reside. No

court 10 try Federal cases is to be held
al Salt Lake City, and the bill contains
a provision ~impaneling juries for this
court, which is opposed by two of the
minority, Messrs. Crounse and Mills,
as open to the same objection as the
jury section of the Mckee bill.

DEAD. BY a telegraphH dispatch
from Berlin we are informed OF the
death of Peter Andreas Hansen, the
celebrated German astronomer. The
deceased was born in the town of Ton
dern, Schieswig, on december Stl,
1875, and was therefore a little over IS
years of age at the time of his death.
He was the professor of astronomy
and a director in the observatory near
Seeburg, Gotha, for nearly 30 years,
retaining the position until his death.
In his writings and theories on the per-
turbations of the 400 and other plan
cts he found an opponent in Encke,
and the controversy between the two
astronomers attracted the attention of
scientists all over the world.
