Fortunes of singers.

A New York correspondent of the
Boston Gazette says: Nine. Parena.
| Rosa is said to have died worth some
S250.000. She was a very thrifty
woman, and looked well after her
pennies. Nine. Nilsson Rozeand has
certainly not squandered her mean.
and is reported to have 100000 ia.
vested in stocks and real estate.
She also is careful with her money.
or rather mean, if all that her man
ayers say about her be true. Miss
Kellogg is worth probably 5000. 900

is close at q bargain, but liberal with
money after she once gets it. AIDE
line Patti is extravaganza and avari-
ciouS, too. She makes a great deal
Of money, and spends a great deal
as well. But she has saved a for
tune. Mile. Alboni is just begin
ming TO make money so she has not
saved any so far. Mr.. eye, however.
will see that she does not lose any,
thing. Lucca is more like the old
fashioned prima donna. She does
not save penny, though she makes
a great many. When She first came
to this country she was utterly pen
niless, and had a daughter and her
old parents to support. De Muir
ska, also, is improvident. To be
sure she does not make anything
like what the others do, and she has
those to take care Of who know how
to spend. Adelaide Phillips is poor,
through her generosity to her rela-
tives, am told. Miss Annie Louise
Cary would save if she could only
get little ahead. But she is SO
kind hearted. Her purse is always
open, and people know that and take
advantage of it. She has a small
bank account, l believe. but she did
not make much out of last season.
and had to draw upon it, if what
hear be true. Nine. Anna Bishop
belongs to the improvident, or, rath-
er, unfortunate generation. She has
made fortunes, but only to lose them,
and is q poor woman to-day. OF
male singers I do not know so mucb.
The survivors OF past generations
are, as a rule very poor. Carl

CapOul didn't, neither did Maarel |

1aritones of the second class are
poorer than church mice.

Long Branch Dispatch to Boston Transcript.
There IS good authority for saying
5hat President Grant is well pleased
with the present political outlook.
For the past few days the President
has abandoned The reticence for which
lie is usually remarkable, and has not
hesitated to express his views of cur
rent events freely among his friends.
Under all circumstances, President
Grant believes the people win be
compelled to recognize the Demo-
cratic party as the party Of imitation
and reputation. and the Republican
party as the friend Of resumption
and of the preservation Of the ma
tional honor and credit. The issue
Of next years campaign, says the
President, is already made, and has
been chosen by the Democracy.
In his message to Congress, when
Democratic House of Representa-
tives will have the privilege of con-
sidering his recommendations he
will set forth as strongly as he pos
sibly can, the depressed and suffer
ing condition of the business and
commerce of the nation, and will di.
rect attention to the necessity of
taking measures to establish the cur
rency on q sound basis by preparing
for resumption under the existing
law in 1879, to which he will say we
alone can look for q restoration of
confidence and credit and revival
Of trade.
He will enlarge upon the aece8si- |
ty of increasing the national reve-
nues as preliminary to resumption. |
EIe will to that end recommend the |
restoration Of the duty on tea and |
coffee, by the abolition of which the !
Government has lost from $20.OOO,-
600 to $25,OoO,0OO a year without
any benefit to the consumer; the
taxation Of all articles of foreign
manufacture, and probably the aboli-
ton Of the entire free list.
In addition the President will prob
ably suggest such an amendment of
the legal-tender act as will require
the payment of all internal revenue
duties in gold, as further provision
for resumption. The President will
make it clear in his message to Con
gress that lie intends to practically
carry out the duty imposed upon the
Government by tile resumption act,
by proceeding to contract the pres
ent greenback Issue to the limit al
lowed by the law. Upon this point,
more than any other, he relies for
the support Of the moneyed interests
of the country in the Republican
Presidential Convention.

CITY RETRENOHMENT.

The claim of the city Administrators that
they have reduced the floating, certified and
bonded debt to the extent of $1,4l1, 3l4,
seems to require some explanation. They
present o comparative statement of floating
debt by which it appears to have amounted
to 81. 929. $50, December 81, 1874, and to have
been reduced to sl,136. $40, June 80, 1875, a
reduction, in six months, of 1872, Ills. They
present also a comparative statement of the
bonded and certified debt, which amounted
to $22,812, l79, December 81, 1874, and to
s22, 1873, $50, June 80. 1875.
The bonded debt December 81 was $22,-
246, 159 We are not informed OF the liquida-
ton Of any other class Of bonds than the
wharf improvement SERIES which have been
reduced from s7O2, 900 to s6s2, 900, for which
purpose the wharf dues were applied. The
reduction claimed must therefore have been
in the certified debt, which amounted De-
cember 81 to $500, 029 only, Of this 500, 1913
consisted of certificates for gold bonds of the
general and drainage SERIES 1t bonds have
been given for these certificates, as stipu-
lated, the transaction does not produce re-
duc.ion of the debt, but ouly a change in
form.
Another large item Of certified debt was
coupons Of interest due and unpaid December
81, 1874, $257,3S If these have been paid
out of the proceeds of the tax of 1874, and
an equivalent portion of the city bonds de-
posted with the Louisiana National Bank as
security for its advances in payment of inter-
est has been Withdrawn, the apparent reduc-
ton will be twice what it really was. The
pledge Of $500. 900 in bonds Of the city draw
ing no INTEREST," to that hank as Fiscal Agent
The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1875-07-15

to secure advances, figures to that amount il
the above quoted debt statement The pay
ment Of certified debt Coupons of interest
overdue) and the withdrawal of the pledge
therefore would make double showing OF
reduction.
The Administrators deserve credit for col
Letting part Of the interest tax of 1874 and
applying it as the law directs. They will
scarcely claim to have reduced the volume OF
the bonded debt at the same time that they
declare themselves unable to pay the interest
on the balance of the debt.
The floating debt due in December, 1874
consisted largely of the appropriations made
by the former council, and comprised nearly
all the current city expenses for seven months
from June l to December 81, 1874. The
former Council found great deal larger
floating debt when they entered upon their
offices, consisting similarly of the expenses
of the last few months of the Flanders adj
ministration. These expenses they paid as
far as the proceeds of the taxes of 1872 and
preceding years would permit. The present
Council have not been as successful in paying
the arrears of 1874 out of the taxes of that
year. Services rendered to the city in July,
1874, and all following months of that year
remain unpaid.
The Administrators have wisely resolved
to leave no similar legacy to their SUCCESSORS,
the law of 1875 forbidding the contraction of
further debt. For this they merit and will
receive the cordial thanks of our citizens.
Still more meritorious is their action in re-
ducing all expenditures to such extent as to
correspond with the diminished resources of
the city. That they are wholly in earnest in
this measure is worthily shown by raseeing
their own salaries which were adapted
to prosperous times when the existing city
Administratorships were created to be filled
with the pets of the Radical party. The re-
naming half salaries paid in cash will net
about the same as the average pay of 1871,
discounted at rates ranging from forty to
seventy-fve per cent.
In this connection honor is due to the Fire
mems Charitable Association for abating one
half from their contract charges for extin-
gushing fires. Their noble example has
done very much towards enabling the Coun-
Gil to adopt measures Of wholesale retrench-
ment, such as will enable the city govern
ment to get through this trying last year of
distress without loss Of credit and without
serious inconvenience to our citizens.

RISE UP, MR. MOULTON.

After dragging its slow length along until all
sensible people in the entire country became
heartily sick and disguised with the whole
affair, the Beecher case has simmered down
to an affair of threats and talk Nearly every
person interested in the case has, since the
trial, been making dire threats about doing
something or other terrible toward the Others
1t would not be at all surprising if some one
or more serious cases did arise from the origi.
nal trial.
| The most serious threats made, SO far is
the one INDUCED in by Moulton, the mutual
friend, who it is said intends to indi,t Beecher
for perjury. If this is done it will doubtless
be more to satisfy Moulton's wife than him
self. Of course the lady feels deeply aggrieved
at the imputation, cast by Beecher against
her that she bore false witness If ever this
matter is brought to the courts the result may
prove of an interesting nature, and will be of
far more value than the count of the jury at
the termination of the first trial
If Mrs. Moulton be maligned by Beecher
she should prosecute him to the fullest ex-
tent. The country is by no means as we'll
satisfied with the result of the trial as the
Plymouth congregation seem to be, and a
settlement Of the question of veracity be-
tween Beecher and Mrs. Moulton would 20
far to decide the public mind as to the truth
of the case.
The action of Beecher's friends since the |
trial has been sort of glorifcation over the
result; it may be rejoicing over the fact |
that no verdict was reached, or that further
and more astounding revelations were not
made.
Now is the time for Mr.. Moulton to rise up
and bring to decision this question of
If he stops where he is, there
cannot but be lingering doubt in the pub
lie mind as to who told the truth, his wife or
Beecher, and hs should dispel the doubt as
speedily as he may.
