\ Diver at Work.

Charles Everett an experienced diver in
the employ of Mr.. Preston, superintendent
of the dredge at work raising the wrecked
span of the Congress street bridge at Troy,
says the Times, commenced operations Sat
urday morning last. He went down on
the deck of one of the sunken canal boat
loaded with ore, and from thence to the
bottom of the river. He reported the deck
of the boat in good condition, bu' did not
make any examination of the Aull, his OBJ
ject being to recover portions of the iron
work of the bridge in which he was very
successful He will continue operations
until the structure is raised. An employe
on the dredge went down Friday afternoon,
without any diving suit and succeeded in
attaching chains to three large chords. He
remained under water at least half minute

ANN ELIZA ON MoRMONIsM.-Ann
Eliza Young, nineteenth wife of the much
married Mormon prophet, and now in
search of a divorce and alimony, has ae-
vanced as far eastward as St. Louis, oo
lecturing excursion, her exhaustless sub
ject being the sins Of Mormonism, or OF
Mormon polygamy From the brief re-
port given of the St. Louis lecture, she
evidently speaks as one having authority.
She is sharp, and earnest. she knows
whereof she speaks, and she rakes the
nolygamous saints of Utah fore and aft
She describes from experience the heart
burnings, the strife, the deception, the un-
speakable misery and degradation of Nor
mon polygamy. She denounces it as
without one redeeming feature and as ut.
terly diabolical and repulsive. She re.
ioices in her emancipation from this loath'
some system of bondage, and is in . fair
way to turn it to good account. II is
said that she is on her way to Washington
TO illuminate the darkness Of the Mormon
system of many wives before the benighted
lawmakers Of Congress.

THE BANKRUPT LAw.-Thc New York
Bulletin throws considerable light on
some of the Objectionable features of the
bankrupt law by reporting the answers OF
well known merchants and business men
dodge, ClaAin, Opdyke, Mayor Have
meyer, &c. to categorical questions re-
gardiu2 the working of the law. These
gentlemen, to the number of dozen, are
almost unanimous in the opinion that the
law. as i stands at present, has not bcne-
fitted the commercial community, and is
not all cEectual IN, ans of collecting debts
Mr. Dodge says he has got dividends in
only twelve or fifteen out Of one hundred
and twenty-five cases and Mr.. Clafin that
"out Of thousands of cases they have rare
ly recovered anything, the little that is
realized being eaten up by the expenses o.
passing Though the court" On the 9TH
hand, Mr.. Dodge says that I'm private set
Elements We have always received some
thing, and never so low as fifty cents on
the dollar" but this is partially owing to
the fact that the most promising failures
are settled in this way. Complaint is also
made of the excessive fees, aud on the
whole, these opinions do not confirm Mr..
Jenckes's view that this IL Il business
mans law, and not lawyers law That
the country needs permanently an equit-
able and inexpensive bankrupt law there
can be no doubt, and it is the duty oil
Congress to 20 amend the present law as
to make it such.

dresses in California mines, no less tnan
FIVE thousand dollars in gold.
Writing at last to say that he was al
ready munifcently overpaid for his bene-
faction, and to release his grateful CORES
pondent from all possible future obliga-
ton, he was answered that the contract
for the half of all mining gains still held
good, and should never be foregone.-
'The obligation ofthe contract is as much
with my maker as with you" wrote the
Californian, "and insist upon paying ac-
cording to my agreement" So at inter-
vals Of months, from year to year. but no
longer with:places of address given, the
overwhelmed benefactor was the recipient
of the golden shipments, until 1862 the
sums which had been sent amounted to
about forty thousand dollars. Soon after
these splendid figures had been reached,
there came another surprise. The volun-
try debtor wrote that he was about en-
tering a business enterprise requiring
thirty thousand dollars more capital
than he had at command and begged his
benefactor to lend him that amount. Here
again another man might have hesitated,
but the Doctor with faith mistaken freely
sent the money, even at great inconveni-
to himself, in those war times. In 1864
it came back to him with full interest and
with it another letter expressing the most
ardent gratitude to his benefactor. "You
doubtless think concluded the writer
''that you have already been we'll repaid
for your kindness, but the time is coming
when you shall receive further proof of
my gratitude. You will yet be the pos
SCISSOR of larger frntune than you ever
thought. possible" But since the letter
so ending, and without address, Dr.. Welt
ing has never heard again from Wright.
Whether the grateful Californian is dead,
or has experienced reverses Of fortune
which he cares not to reveal, is unknown
to his benefactor, whose etters to Califor'
MIA, inquiries and messages, have all prov
ed unavailing to solve the mystery
Hence it is, after all, in most unsatisfac-
tory condition of ofincompleteness that the
remarkable narrative finally comes to pub
lie knowledge; but this artistic effect is
more than coanterbalanccd by the high
and fairly poetic humanity running
through the given facts. and the fine spir-
it of matiy trust and oensummats fidelity
characterising the respective actors in this
drama of faith.-Happy Home.

AN ExAMpLE.-Thee people Of the
Southern States, who are desirous of Sc
curing white immigration, may perhaps
gain hints of value from the experience
of Maine in colonizing New Sweden, in
the northern wilderness Of that State. In
December, 1871, the colony Of New Swed-
en- was founded, and it now numbers six
hundred souls. The colonists have taken
up twenty thousand acres Of land, have
felled twenty-five hundred acres Of forest,
and have seeded four hundred acres OF
grass land. The State furnished the
Swedes, from the founding of the colony
in 1871, to September 80, 1873, the sum
ofS24,321, of which the Swedes have re-
paid S9,O29 in labor on public roads,
leaving balance of little more than sl6,-
900, which is to be paid in road labor when
wanted. Provisions and tools were the
principal articles supplied to the colonlsts
by the State which also put up twenty
six houses to receive them on their arr
val. Since then the Swedes have built
one hundred and four houses, one hun
dred and thirty barns, two steam shlngie
mills, and one water power saw-mill. One
hundred and thirty men Of the colony
have declared their intention of becoming
American citizens. But this is not all.
In addition to the six hundred Swedes
in New Sweden. there are nine hundred
friends and relations of the colonlsts scat
tered through the State, adding, by their
industry, to the wealth Of the community.
The fifteen hundred Swedes in Maine all
paid their passage to this country, and
brought with them one hundred thousand
dollars in cash. 1t is esteemed that as a
producing force these immigrants are
worth one million five hundred thousand
dollars to the State, all this has been ac-
complished by the intelligent expenditure
of twenty thousand dollars, third OF
which has already been repaid in labor on
public works, and the remainder of which
will also be repaid in due time.

Spain, during less than year past, ha

The third annual statement Of the pork
packing operations this season in the West
have just been published. Returns from
3S9 points and 81 additional estimated,

to pay this no less than 26S,553 acres OF

Troops IN THE SoUTH.-The following
is the first of the testimony given by the
military commander Of this department,
and is worthy Of the attention of our rea-
ders
Major General Mcdowell, commanding
the Department of the South, appeared
before the House Military Committee and
made full statement of the present con-
ditions and needs of the army in the South
ern States. He is clearly Of the opinion
that no further reduction of the troops in
that section is either wise or practicable
this year. The number of men under his
command is between three and four thous-
and They are scattered at the posts all
over the South, there being notmore than
three hundred or four hundred men at
the largest post. This number includes
all who are doing garrison duty at the
Notifications on the coast. There are only
fourteen companies, numbering less than
one thousand men in all, for the States OF
Mississippi and Louisiana. All the cav
airy, numbering one thousand men, were
taken away year ago, and sent to guard
the line of the Northern Pacific Rail Road.
The general informed the committee that
it was the policy of the government to IN
terfcre as rarely and as slightly as possible
in the affairs of tbe South. The princi-
pal service of the troops is in aiding the
United States Marshals in serving
their writs. The troops were really no
more than nationalpolice, and not much
if any larger than the police force Of New
York city. Matters were generally peace
full in the South, but there would continue
to be good deal Of friction between the
two races for some time to come, and 1t is
well for Congress to consider whether the
moral effect of maintaining certain mill
tary force in the South can be dispensed
with. The General emphasizes the ne
cessity of keeping up the moral force Of
the army as means Of preventing aisor-

to a1Iay feeling, wherever Il va pUssisas
to do SO, and has mingled freely with both
sides. He ridiculed the idea that there
was such thing as bayonet anywhere
in the South, or any necessity for it; yet
he believed certain amount of military
force necessary at present. He gave to
the committee detailed statements Of his
forces and their whereabouts. Under the
circumstances it is hardly probable that
any reduction will be made in Genera
McDowell's department.

Northerners at the South.

ing upon the debate between Senators
Merrimon and Edmunds, says:
We share in Mr.. Edmunds' pleasure at
learning from the lips of Southern SEN
ator of Mr.. Merrimon's standing, that in
at least one Southern State the natives
are beginning to get he nonsense out Of
their heads and the rancor out Of their
hearts, and to heed the apostolic injunct.
ton about using hospitality, and entertain
ing strangers. The quicker and more
thorough the process, Che better for North
Carolina, and the coasrry at large. We
could wish, though, that he had not laid
such strong accent on the word ''gentle,
men," or that he had taken time to ex.
plain what he meant by that much abused
term. "Gentleman" used to mean, on
Southern lips, man who had a great
grandfather, and a larger or smaller num-
Der of (unpaid) servants-a man who
didn't earn his own living. But the great
mass of our Northern people have neither
coat of arms nor family portraits, and
they earn their own living 1t is these
honest, hard working, frugal people
small farmers, artisans, mechanics, thrifty
trades-people-whom the South most
needs to-day. They can do a great deal
more for her, if she will let them, than she
can hope for from the capital classes par
ereeNence-the millionaire railroad men,
manufacturers or real estate spectators.
But these people have New England
pride of their own, and as MIR. Edmunds
told his friend from North Carolina, they
are not going anywhere, where they can
not take their pride along with them,
with the assurance that it will be safe
from outrage We wish Mr.. Merrimon
had bid for this kind Of immigration a
little more explicitly.
We are afraid, too, that it will hardly
be prudent to argue from. the state OF
things in North Carolina to generaiza-
tion embracing the entire South. Mr..
Edmunds might have reminded Mr. Mer-
rimon that the latter State had always
been rather looked down upon and snub-
bed by their neighbors, as deficient in
blood. gcntility, "Southernism.' We sus-
pect there are still z good peay commu-
mites in which Yankr' - Farmer, shoe
maker or storekeeper, would find himself
rather lonesome, and his wife exceedingly
homesick. DR.. Henry W. Bellows, a very
conservative man by temperament, and not
given TO exaggeration, writes from Flori-
da to this paper: THE skin is tolerably
smooth, but under it the Southern flesh
creeps still, and is very sore and exasper-
ated towards the North While North
erncrs are treated civilly. there is very
little social communication between North
and South, and the bitter feeling toward
the North is far from being sOitened, if
concealed. 1t will take whole genera
ton to change this Marah into a sweet
spring" And the most enlightened OF
Southern newspapers, the Louisville
Courier Journal, is at this moment enga-
ged-more power to its elbow in an at.
tempt to persuade the Kentucky legisla-
ture and people, that immigration would
be good thing for the people of the
State, and that the old cry of kentucky
for Kenluckians," has outlivcd its useful,
ness.
