THE ENGLISH ARITC EXP E.
DIITON.

A recent letter from London says
that the people of that city have been
intensely interested for the past two
months in watching the preparations
for the departure of the expedition
which has set sail for the frozen reg
ions. No former Arctic expedition
has ever been so literally provided
for or SO completely equipped. Should
it prove a failure, inadequate supplies
and imperfect appliances will surely
not be the cause, and when so much
has been already accomplished by ex-
petitions which have sailed for the
northern seas under much less favor
able circumstances, very interesting
and important results may reasona-
bly, be expected from the present
sumptuously appointed one.

.IMPRACTTC.ABLE.

A proposition was made some time
ago in this country to establish post
office savings banks. In Great Brit
ain the scheme has been tried and it
is criticised, the objections urged
against it being First, that in the
attempt to introduce the new system
and compensate those interested in
the old, grave injustice has been done;
second, that the Government does
not keep sufficiently large reserve
to enable it to meet its promises to
the depositors in case of a panic, and
third, that the faults in the manage
ment of the banks are due to a fear
Of offending the large number of To-
cal magnates who are interested, as
trustees in the old banks.

POLITICAL NOTES.

The New Orleans Picayuae, demo-
crat, declares that the success of the
Ohio democrats on such a platform
as they have will ruin the democratic
party as national organization.
Ex-Governor b. Gratz Brown, of
Missouri, has indicated his intention
to take part in the Ohio campaign in
advocacy of the reelection of Cover
nor Allen. He indorses the expan-
sion platform of the Ohio democrats.
In reply to the frantic demands of
many of its contemporaries for "more
money!" the Memphis Tenn. Aua-
lancbe makes this unanswerable ar
gument -" The currency is ample.
In proportion as we produce articles
needed by our Northern neighbours
or for foreign export, currency will
flow into the South. Sections that
produce onlywhat they consume can
not expect an influx of capital. The
problem is simple: Produce some
thing to sell, and the money will seek
it.n
The Iowa Republican State Con-
vention assembled at Des Moines
Wednesday. The platform adopted
declares the unity of the Republic,
and in favor of gold and silver as the
only reliable legal tender, tariff to
encourage home industry, against
land grants to railroads or other cor.
porations, approves arbitration in
the settlement of national disputes.
opposes a third term, demands that
railroads be subjected to the law-mak-
ing power, endorsing free education
and the present school system approx
ing the National and State Admins
trations, and inviting all who oppose
the restoration of the Democratic
party to power to unite with the Re.
publican party. Samuel J. Kirkwood,
of Johnson county, was nominated
for Governor, and j. j. Newbold. on
Henry county, for Lieutenant Cover.

Five Years with Il Bullet i'm
His Head.

From the h',cinton (Ga. ),Southerner.l
In the battle of Hatcher's Run
in 1864, Mr.. Green Pittman. of
Wilkinson county received a
wound in the face, the ball enter
ing the upper portion of the nose
on the eft side. The wound was
probed and dressed by an army
surgeon, and finally healed up and
although the surgeon stated that
the ball was still in the head. Mr..
Pittman had almost forgotten it.
rever having experienced the
least pain or inconvenience from it.
In 1869, one Sunday morning in
February, five years after receiy-
ing the wound, as Mr.. Pittman
was making his toilet to attend
Church, it fell out into his mouth.
Mr.. Pittmaf was combing his
hair at the time, standing perfect
!y erect, and came near swallow
ing the ball after it fell into his
mouth. Strange to say no hemor-
hage followed its exit, nor was
there any pain felt. The ball
weighed one ounce and two pen-
n.y. weights. 1t is now in posses
sion of Mr.. Pittman, who was a
gallant member of the Third
Georgia Regiment during the
late war.

In this town there is an old lym-
phatic negro who has wonderful
large feet, and is always ready to
take a rest. One day, while LAYING
upon the cabin floor slumbering
with his feet presented to a glim,
mering fire, he opened one eve a
little, and getting a glimpse Of the
dark objects, he mistook them for
two little negroes, and cried out.

CHARLEY ROSS.

Charley Brewster Ross was stolen
from his home in Germantown on Ju-
~ 1st-one year ago to-day, and al
though every resource of detective
skill has been enlisted in the search
for his recovery, or for information
respecting his fate, the mystery sur
rounding his whereabouts is practi-
cally as impenetrable as it was on the
sad evening when the shock of his
abduction fell upon his family.
No child has ever awakened public
sympathy throughout the land as this
culy-haired lost child has. No house
hold in the land but has mourned
him, no village but has sought him
diligently, and though the apprehen-
sion of stray children in various citi-
es and towns has ceased, and Char
ley Ross picture is rarely seen plac-
arded, the public solicitude in his
behalf is undoubtedly as deep as ever,
and only needs a fresh occasion to
manifest itself.
One fact worthy of attention sthe
increased number Of kidnappings
that have taken place, or been attemp-
ted in various places, since this foul
crime was committed. On that ac-
count, if no other, no human agency
that can be invoked should be neg
lected to bring to punishment the
accomplices in the Germantown alb
duction.
Mosherand Douglass, the undoubt-
ed principals in the affair ,have made
terrible atonement. But they had
assistants, who even yet may have
the boy in their possession. They
might have given him up with entire
immunity, or given some tidings OF
him. In their long silence they
commit crime as heartless as that
of thedead kidnappers and as certain
in the end, to bring its full retribu
ton. 1t may not come through the
fundamentally of human law, but il
is nevertheless inevitable.

Womanss Affracfiveuass

Personal attractions most girls
possess-at any-rate in a Sufficient
degree to render them attractive
to somebody-for although there
are Standards and models of beam
ty, yet these do not prevail with
all persons. There is something
wonderful in the difference of as
pect which the same face wears fo
different beholders. Probably the
philosophical explanation of this
is, that what is hidden to all 9th
ers becomes apparent to the eye of
love.
How can moderately good
looking girl Increase her attrac-
tons? By culture. She must Gull
.lvate her mind. An ignorant and
1lllserate woman, even if she at
tract the attention, cannot retain
the interest of an intelligent man.
she must do this by reading. bv
study, by reflection, and by famii-
lar conversation with the best and
most bis My educated persons with
whom she comes in contact.
But the heart must be cultivated
as Well as the head. OF all things
exclaimed a most elegant and re-
fined gentleman, after nearly life
times familiarity with the best So
cIety, of all things, give me soft
ness and gentleness in woman.
A harsh voice, a coarse laugh-tri-
fies like these have suddenly spoil-
ed many a favorable first impress
sion.
The cultivation of the heart
must be real and not feigned. A
woman VINO studies to appear ra-
ther than be good and generous.
seldom succeeds in deceivipg the
opposite lcy in these respects. She
woo in truth seeks earnestly r.
promote tle happiness of those
around her, is very apt soon to OBJ
tain admirers among men. No wo-
man ever 0 sherwise SO completely
.iiumphs over rival as when she
is in good earnest to prefer that
rivals interest to her own.
Above all other requisites in a
woman is conscientiousness. With
olt this touch-stone Of character.
no matter what her charms and
requirements, she cannot expect
to co.nmand the lasting regard of
any man whose love is worth hav-
ing.

DEAD HEADS.

We mean those who borrow the
papers that more enterprising, liberal
people pay for. 1t is our business to
tramp around looking up news, and
recently we took it into our head to
look over the list Of subscribers, Sc
that in our labor we could distinguish
the legitimate owner of the paper
from the regular dead. head. Wewere
led into this q little by the complaints
of subscribers. They frequently say :
" Look here; can't you send so-and-
so paper free?" We answer " No /;
our paper costs us money, time and
hard labor, and why do you ask US to
give these things free to man who
is not a pauper, and is perfectly able
to pay for the paper Then the truth
comes: .Why, / can't get a chance
to read my paper. He comes here and
picks it up as if he paid for it. He
might as well put his hand in my
pocket and take out my money. -
That is the truth, and we have con-
firmed it by observation. We have
looked at these non-sttbscribers impos-
ing on subscribers and leaving their
families at home without home pa
per, whilst they go out and rob their
neighbor of the morning news. They
pass for respectable people, never buy
the INDEPENDENT and never lose an
opportunity to defame it and abuse
it's editors. There is no travelling
quack or swindler meaner than men
who do this. A man walks into store
and walks out with coffee, sugar or
flour for his stomach and he is arreS-
ted; but so-called gentlemen walk in
and out and off with a paper to salts
fly the cravings of hismind land thinks
he is living economical by not paying
for paper. Oh, how mean and des-
picable-and the beauty of it is, the
lender always complains to the editor
and tellsshim how mean Mr.. So-and-
so is mot to take and pay for a paper
for his family. They are generally the
wise men in the community. They
make their living by being smart
so-called. Heartless and worthless,
with clean linen and smiles; after all
they are merely cormorants, going
through the world on cheek and i'm
pudence; but, in this, as in all other
things, when their days are ended and
the newspaper they have SO long bor-
rowed records the time of their de-
cease, they cannot sham it longer or
cross the dark and rolling river ON
borrowed pasSpOrtS.

No Verdict Vet.

NEW YORK June 29.-The Brook
lyn city court house was not occupied
by SO many loungers this morning as
it had been on previous days. The
jury breakfasted in the room facing
on the third floor. They passed the
night in another room, and when
they made their appearance there was
a large crowd assembled in the corri-
dor to observe them. Police officers
kept the crowd back so that no person
could, either by whispers or signs,
hold any communication with the ju-
ry. The jurors looked worn and
haggaTd, as if they had passed sleep
less night. They carried their vests
and coats over their arms, and their
hats and a few parcels in their hands.
Judge Nelson came up to the court
about 10 O'Clock, and entering the
room he took up the calendar for the
trial of causes. Mr.. Shearman, of de-
fence was around shortly afterwards,
and after paying visit to Judge
Nelson, took his departure. An Off
Ger then brought a verbal message
from the jury-room to the Judge aboutl
IL O'Clock, but Judge Nelson declin-
ed to make public the nature of the
message. At 1870, Morris and Pry-
or, of Tilton's counsel, came into
court and took seats beside the Judge
with whom they held a short CONVEX
sation. A few minutes after, Judge
Nelson said to the clerk "Send for
Mr.. Sherman, and when that gen.
tleman made his appearance, a dis
cussion took place between the four.
1t appears that the message from the
jury was in relation to Beecher's and
Moulton's testimony, which they de
sired to be sent up to them. 1t was
suggested that a volume of the evil
dence be sent up, but Pryor objected,
and it was agreed to cut the evidence
of these two parties from tie book
and send it to the jurors. 'sTell the
jury" said his honor to an officer,
s'that counsel are preparing the pa
pers, and will send them up in ashort
time. Counsel then left Judge Neil
son to the consideration of the case
he had in hand-an action for DANA
ges in a street car accident-and
went to the chambers to prepare the
testimony for the jury.

The Crops i'm the KanawEaa
Valley.

[ From the Charleston Chronicle. I
1t is generally acknowledged that
there is a good prospect for crops in all
this part of West Virginia. The corn
crop is backward but promises well now
since the late rains, and there is an un-
usual quantity ofland planted with corn
this year. Wheat is not bad; oats good
as usual and the tobacco is dong well.
Fruit that blossomed late is doing well
In some places there is an abundance,
and it is thought there will be a fair crop
of peaches and apples. The potato bug
is not so destructive as was feared, and
that the crop will not be meager, though
less ground than usual is planted in po-
tatoes.
