Heartless Treatment Of Dead Body on q
Steamer.
CORPSE THAT FLoArED IN THE WAKE OF
A VESSEL.

Few persons can be found who will defend
the inhuman. to say the least, treatment of
the dead by certain steamship lines now ply
ing between this port and Europe. With
sailing ships making long voyages and carry
ing no ice, there is no alternative save to con-
ide to the deep the corpses of those who may
die during the protracted voyage. That
steamship companies have no objection to
carry bodies, however, is proved by the fact
that they are often handsomely paid for trans
porting over the Atlantic to their last resting
place the remains OF those who have died
away from their homes. But should q poor
wretch breathe his last on board, his or her
body is thrown over to the sharks, instead of
being kept for few days or hours on ice,
until port is reached. The following Incl
cent on Cunard steamer will be read with
interest in this injection:
On recent passage Of the steamer China
for Liverpool, belonging to the line just men,
toned, an American lady, who was accom-
panied by her daughter, died short time
before the vessel came in sight Of Sandy Hook
Both were cabin passengers. The daughter
begged the captain, with tears in her eyes,
that he would not cause her mothers body to
be thrown overheard but he was relentless,
and neither her prayers nor those OF several OF
the cabin passengers mad any enect upon Ill.,
All he said was that the rules of the company
must be carried out An old box,
in imitation of coffin, was impro-
vised by the ships carpenter, and
heavy weights put in to sink it. So
roughly was it constructed, that the shroud OF
the unfortunate woman was seen projecting
from the box. The doctor of the ship muir
INJURED a few words of burial service, and the
box was flung overheard. At first it disap-
peared, but owing to the weights falling out,
It rose again, and was seen floating for some
time in the wake of the China Of course, in
case OF an epidemic of cholera or yellow fever
breaking out on board ship, and large num-
Der Of deaths occurring, there would be no
alternative but to contide the bodies to the
deep, but in cases like that aforementioned
there is little excuse for such conduct. The
relatives of the dead woman in this city would
have willingly paid hundred times the cost
OF the ice for preserving the body till it ar
rived here.-Ne,p York. Paper.

The Washington correspondent Of the Balti-
more Sun, speaking Of the course of Attorney
General Williams, the law officer OF the Govern
ment, in ignoring the decision of Justice Brad
ley of'the Supreme Court, in the Grant Parish
prisoners case, remarks:
The U. S. Marshals are now doing in Ala
bama, Tennessee, and Louisiana exactly what MIR.
Justice Bradley has held thai they have no power
to do. 1t of course would be presumptuous to
endeavor to pre-, let what the decision Of the SUI
preme Court will be on this question, but it may
be said that Justice Bradley is not disposed to
be any more of strict constructionist OF the
Constitution than any Of his associates on the
bench.
''This fact would be enough to make almost any
other man than the Attorney General hesitate
before going to the extreme lengths on which he
has ventured.
''Not satisfied, however, with what Mr.. VIII
Iams is undertaking to do, it is significant that
the mouthpleces Of the administration in this
city are alleging that the laws now on the statute
books do not give sufficient power to the Federal
Government to maintain peace and order in the
South, and have commenced to prepare the pub
lie mind for additional political legislation Oh the
meeting of Congress"

A NOVEL DIVORCE CAsE.-AJ. Secor wished
divorce from his wife Polly Ann Secor, 30 he
employed Belva Lockwood as counsel, and FRO
gether for over twenty years, but that he had
found out now that she was crazy at the time of
marriage, and just for the principle of the thing
he wanted q divorce. But Judge Carter knocked
matter by assuring the plaintiff solemnly that he
was not bit worse off than other men; all
women had the devil in them, some more and
others less, and that if his wife possessed little
extra supply of that material, it only made things
superior divorsial rights; the principle was the
same in all cases, and if he once started prece-
dent by separating parties because the devil en-
tered into the combination he could go on for
eternity if he had the time, breaking up house
on the community. So the divorce was refused.

The New York Tribune, referring to tie reports
that Gen. Grant intends to have an Overhauling
of Southern ofiice-holders, truly says Reform
in the South is not to be secured by the removal
OF few peculating postmasters and defaulting
revenue agents. Criminals Of that )rt are found
in every community, and when the Government
sends them to Jail it merely performs one OF it's
ordinary duties that calls for no more remark
than the discharge of a function of routine. The
worst disorders of the reconstructed States are
attributable to the partisan activity Of
. class of otfice.holders of whom
Mr.. Williams at Washington and Mr.. Casey at
New Orleans are conspicuous types. The duty
of Federal marshal, collector, postmaster; nay,
even OF Federal Judge, accordir to the base
code of ethics which politicians of this sort pro-
fess, is principally to look after elections and see
that the State is carried for the right side, if not
by ballots, why then by iniunctions, mandamuses,
check-books, and military orders. These are the
men Of whom the President ought to relieve the
country if he really desires reform. 1t will not
help us much if the patronage is to be taken
away from Senators who have no right to it only
to be clutched by President who abuses it,"

A Stylish Rams Head.

In the show window Of the jeweler
Thomas Kirkpatrick, at Broadway
and nineteenth street, is displayed
a highly ornamented rams head,
intended as a gift to President Teje-
da, of Mexico, from Gen. r. Bena-
vides, Mexican Minister to the Court
of Berlin. The horns of the ram
are capped with solid silver imita-
tons of a Scotch thistle, with an
amethyst about the size of half a
dollar set in each. On the top of
the head Is a small silver crown,
surmOunted by a "cairngorm," a
Scotch stone resembling topaz, about
two and a half inches long by two
inches wide. A silver rake, spoon,
a rabbits foot, and other emblems,
are attached by silver cords. In
Scotland 1t Is customary to fill the
crown with snuff, Of which the
guests at table are expected to par
take as a matter Of ceremony.
When sent to the Mexican President
the crown is expected to serve as a
holder of cigarettes.-NeW York

A Liberated Slave in the Speak
er's Chair-The First Negro
Presiding Over the House of
Representatives - Memorial

The hall of the House of Repre-
sentatives, during this session, has
been the scene of events of more
than ordinary historical interest.
At the beginning of the session,
there came the wierd, attentuated
form of the Vice President of the
Southern C0nfederacy, the cynOsure
Of all eyes. With a grace as dell
cate as it was magnanimous, the
House accorded him the privilege,
extended only to one other, of Sc
Iecting his seat, without the usual
form of drawing by lot; again,
when he spoke for the first time the
House massed itself about
him, eager to hear every
word from the infirm veteran,
and gave him such attention as has
seldom been equalled in u Con-
gressional halls. A few days ago
the eulogy pronounced by L. &C.
Lamar, of Mississippi, on Charles
Sumner transfixed, as it were, every
one present in the House. The
Speaker sat with folded arms and
gaze intent throughout its delivery,
while a silence unbrOken prevailed
the chamber. All this was con-
sidered eminently proper. But to-
day the other scene, the emanci-
pated negro sitting in the Speakers
chair, presiding owe the House of
Representatives, while Judge Par
ker of Missouri, was making an
eloquent appeal i'm behalf of civiliz-
ing the Indian and elevatIng him
to citizenship-that is the scene
which will make the history
Of the session memorable
i'm American annals. The
honor of presiding over the House
was accorded to a colored represen-
tative for the first time in the per-
son of Joseph III. Rainey, the rep
resentative of the first South Caro-
lima district, who was born a slave
i'm Georgetown in 1882. During the
wal he was forced to work on the
Notifications Of the confederates in
Charleston, from whence he escaped
to the West Indies, returning to his
native town ut the close of the wal.
He has been a member of Congress
several times and is highly respect
ed by the members Of this House.
1t was to this member that the late
James Brooks went at the close of
the Credit Mobilier matter and
thanked him for the friendship he
had shown him during the discus
sion, and other evidences Of his es-
TEEN, remarking that his conduct
challenged his admiration, and as a
debt Of gratitude thenceforth he
would be the friend of the colored
race.--N y. Herald, april S0th.

a word passed between them about
their disagreement.
The world became convinced that
such a friendship between such men
could not be broken by a mere
honest difference of opinion. Abra-
ham Lincoln, a nan of sincere and
profound convictions himself, es-
teemed and honored sincere and
profound convictions in others. II
was thus that Abraham Lincoln
composed his quarrels with his
friends, and at his bedside, when he
died, there was no mOurner more
deeply afflicted than Chas. Sumner.

Nav 5, 1874.

Business has been little better
to-day, both on local and western
orders.
Sugars advanced an eighth OF a
cent all around this morning, but
with that exception prices remain
steady at former quotations.
By our latest eastern advices
trade in grain was limited, while
the provision markets were only
moderately active.
The live stock markets seem to
be improving. Navigation is now
open to and from Montreal, and
holders of grain may expect an in
creased demand for it for shipment.
