The celebrated $1,000 package given
to Senator York Of Kansas to secure his vote
for Pomeroy in the Senatorial election, which
Mr. York produced in the joint convention
to the discontinue of Old Subsidy, is again
the subject of public interest Mr.. Fran
cis the new State Treasurer, has receipted
for it among other valuables in the State
Treasury, but does not know what to do
with it. York, who only took it in order
to entrap Pomeroy, will have nothing to
do with it. Pomeroy's explanation of the
affair was that the money was given in
trust to York for one Page, who was to
start national bank on it but Page has
relinquishcd all claim to it. So the cash
remains in the treasury without an owner.

The civil rights bill is meeting with
opposition in the House. If it is not de-
feated it is probable the Senate bill will be
modified somewhat. The question whether
the clause providing for mixed schools is
compulsory or not, is the turning point Of
the debate. The variety of opinion, upon
this question, shows that the Senate bill is
not sufficiently clear and explicit upon the
subject. That matter, however, can be
easily adjusted, and it doubtless should be,
before the bill becomes law. Its mean.
ing should be plain and pointed upon SO
important portion Of tho bill, though the
Senate debate showed it was understood by
some Of its advocates, that the provision
relating to mixed schools was not compul,
sorry, and there seems no commanding rea
son why it should be.

ONE of the finest sights Professor Stiner,
the aeronaut says that he ever saw, was the
view he had of two sunsets, while on his bal.
loon trip from Milwaukee. He was at a GER
tain altitude the first time when he saw the sun
go down on Lake Michigan, and then descended
to the waters Of the lake. Afterwards he com
menced rising very rapidly, and soon reached
such an altitude that the fiery orb again began
to rise, apparently upon the western waters,
and ere long he was once more in full sunlight.
Then, as he descended again, the sun sank be-
meath the waters a second time, thus aifording
two sunset views in single day The pro-
iessor says as the sun appeared to rise second
time, it was one of the finest visions he ever
witnessed, and the spectacle was one of the
most magnificent description.

There was ono sensible speaker at a
labor reform meeting in Boston, last week
Tuesday. A Mr.. Mcneil said that he de-
sired to raise his protest against common
fallacy, oft repeated that the rich were
growing richer and the poor poorer. The
contrary was the truth, as every thinking
Individual must see. More people wore
broadcloth in 1874 than ever before. Peo-
pie enjoyed advantages to-day that the King
Of England did not have years ago. The
profits Of business were growing smaller
and smaller from year to year, and it now
required the employment Of many work
men to secure the profits which a few would
return some years ago. Again, the wages
Of brief period now would purchase more
than the work Of year a century ago, and
wealth was more equitably distributed than
ever before. Monopolies had accomplished
many things, and had taught what cooper
alton could do. Cooperation was the need
of the working classes.

The Bowdoin Faculty have shown a
commeudable faculty for discipline Every
body who has been a student knows how to
sympathizc with students a little rampa-
geous and rebellious and everybody who has
been young will make allowance for the
quick impulses of youth. But order ODE
dience and subordnation are essential to
the well being of all organized institutions
and even those who may in their early days
have fretted under the tight drawing of the
halter of rules and regulations, after reach
ing manhood generally learn to have good
opinion of the law. President Chamber
lain walks with firm tread in the footstep,
of the late genial President X, who, Oh
one occasion, declared TO the Harvard boys
that authority should be maintained ever
if the whole college were dismissed and
the venerable walls left to the owls and the
bats.

Mr.. Thomas Raines, State Treasurer OF
New York, is lunatic In the Utica asylum,
and his friends fear that he never will be
restored to his right mind. The Phelps
deialcation in the treasurer's department,
nearly year ago, by which the State will
lose nearly $500, 900, annoyed Mr.. Raines
very much, aud when this was followed by
a recent failure Of bank 10 Rochester, Of
which he was manager, and in which hi
entire private fortune and that of his family
was invested, he broke down completely.

In San Antonio, recently, says the St.

iuriousy into town with the alarm that the

There is now a very general brushing
up and reftting of our hotels and boarding
houses for the anticipated summer busi-
ness. To secure the best class Of summer
visitors at almost any point among the lakes
and mountains, it is only necessary to
promise airy and comfortable rooms, with
out any special richness of furnishing, and
such food as the neighborhood ought to be
able to supply. People come from the
city, not to get just what they can find at
homo, but are delighted to taste real cream,
sweet butter, fresh eggs, fish just out of the
water, crisp cucumbcrs picked in the cool
of the morning, vegetables and berries, each
in their season, and wholesome bread Nc
matter about the beef steaks, and other
meats, that must come from distance
Ensure these things and you will have all
the company you will want.

To recognize Cuban belligoreucy at the
present time would be the most arrant
piece Of folly in the world, and it cannot
be advocated with reason or sense. What

has heard anything Of it for months p
What progress has it made? 1t has neither
organized government, capital nor seaport.

to such recognition. Our sympathies are

ultimately secure their Independence But
we cannot disregard the laws Of the world

Decoration nay.

Nine years have passed since the dark
cloud Of war, which had so long hung like
pail over the country, was lifted, and to
a great extent the bitterness ongendered by
the strife has been buried, and the marks
Of the terrible struggle are fast being oblit-
Grated. Other aud newer issues now en-.
gross the attention Of our people, but not
withstandipg this, 1t may safely be said
that the memory of the nations dead will
never be obiterated, and that the time is
far distant when the Observance Of the
memorial day, on which their graves are
strewed with the choicest flowers, will be
dispensed with
The purposes Of this observance are sim.
pie and significant, aud seek only to recog'
nize the fact that but for the soldier the ma.
ton would have been dismembered, and
her free institutions overthrow. Hence
the claim Of the soldier, living or dead, to
distinctive remembrance aud honor for
what he accomplished in those dark and
troublous hours when the very existence OF
the nation was threatened.
1t is just aud natural that those whose
sense Of personal bereavement in the loss
Of some loved one can never be healed,
should take an active part in performing
the touching ceremonies incident to this
day, aud hardly less SO that more fortunate
comrades should take mourniul pleasure
in bedecking the graves Of the heroic dead
with the fairest and most beautiful fora
tributes But the eminent propriety o.
this ceremony should engage others in its
performance as were hardly disturbed
in their individual relations and prosperity
during the war. And we cannot fail t,
feel duly grateful that to so great an exteu
it does engage the sympathy and assistance
of nearly all classes.
Let us hope that the Observance Of Dec
grafton Day may continue as long as tn
Republic endures, or rather let us remem

will endure so long as her living sons tax

Secretary RIchardsOn,s Resignation.


We think the country is to be congratu.

The developments Of the past few months
as to his connection with the Sanborn con.
tracts, and other similar transactions, has
not had a tendency to inspire confidence 10
this gentleman, nor in the Treasury De-
partmcnt while under his management
His resignation did not come any too soon
nor was it any too promptly accepted by
the President. We WISH however, that i'll
this gentleman has got to be 1ensoned at
the expense Of the government, that a
SUN sufficient to his maintenance might
have been voted him outright. This course,
We think, would have been decidedly prefer.
able to transferring him from the important
position Of Secretary Of the Treasury to the
important position Of Judge Of the Court Of
Claims The fact that he has proved himself
ootoriously unfit for one position, is 10 our
Judgment, very poor recommend for him
to another However, we are certainly
glad he is no longer Secretary Of the Treas
ury He may make a respectable Judge
Of the Court Of Claims he certainly was
failure in the other position. The presi.
dent has named as his successor, General
Brstow, Of Kentucky. General Bristow

tics, then spoke Of him as man Of great
ability, aud equal to any position. 1t may
be assumed that the President would not
have nominated him, or any other man,
without knowing that he stood right upon
the financial question. But it strikes US
that all would have been better satisfied il
he had named somebody whom the country
would not have had to take on trust

average crop. John Wikle gathered
go bushels per acre from field of 40
acres.
Mrs. Morrison, late of Monroe, was
buried here yesterday by the aid OF
the Odd Fellows Order. Her hus
ban was away on visit to Prince Ed
wards Island, on the Atlantic coast |;
and of course the mournfnl rites were
conducted without his presence. Mrs.
Morrison's father, Mr.. Jacob Collins,
was buried just six weeks since, and
only three members survive to mourn
the loss of father and an only sister.
The funeral was attended by large
concourse of people, who seemed to
share the grief of the bereaved and
give them consoling sympathy. e.
