HOW IT DONE.

The way in which Federal Office hold
ers rapidly acquire fortunes is well illus.
trated in the case of Mr.. Thomas Will
liams, National Bank Examiner, who was
in this place a few days since. Mr. Will
liams receives his appointment from the
Government and resides at Washington
CITY. He has the banks in several States
AS district over which he exercises an
examiners watchful care, and which he
visits stated number of times during the
wear. His services arc paid for at the rate
1--WE dollars per day, and two dollars for
every twenty-five miles he is compelled
to travel in order to reach any bank in
the scope ofhis territory. On Friday he
closed his labors at Lexington, and the
following day came to Richmond. The
distance is twenty-five miles, and for this
he was entitled to two dollars, the regu-
lar fare by stage. His duties here with
three National banks requirep his actual
labor only on Friday and Saturday, which
at FIVE dollars day gave him ten dollars;
and this with his mileage would make
twelve dollars. But he understands the
routine of how not to do it, and thereby
turns "an honest penny" Instead of
making out his charges against the banks
or the amount actually due him, he
counts his mileage at the rate stated for
the whole distance from Washington City
to Richmond for three separate trips, or
one to each bank. Andin place of twelve
dollars for one days work he receives
one hundred and fifty dollars. Truly this
is glorious government Of ours, and the
softest place on earth is an Office under
Grant Is it singular, then, that all the
office holders in the land are squalling
for third term?

EFFECTS OF THE DULL IRON
TRADE.

A Philadelphia correspondent of N. Y
Tribune says:
The recent failure of the iron firms Of
Malin Bros and S. Fulton & Co. in this
city, creates considerable uneasiness
among who have advanced money to furn-
ace and mill men. 1t is known that a
large number of iron manufacturers, par.
ticularly furnace owners, have been run
ming their works at a loss for months, in
the hope of being able to eep their trade
until better times set in. If there is no
improvement in the market for iron, nu-
merous failures are inevitable More
would have occurred already were it not
for the leniency of creditors, who, acting
for their own interests; have granted ex-
tensions knowing that to foreclose upon
furnaces and rolling mills in a time when
no one can make iron at profit would
be to run the risk Of losing a large share
Of their claims. A reviving market, il
experienced soon, willtide numer us en-
barrassed firms over, butif the prevailing
prostration continues, they must soon go
to the wall. ID .iInN. gpi h3~ Jt

At the expiration Of the morning hour
Mr.. Conkling took the floor and conclu-
ded his argument in regard to LOUISIANA
Mr.. scHuRz MoDIFiEs HIS RESOLUTION
Mr.. Schurz said he desired to modify
his resolution to read as follows;
Whereas, Any military interference by
officers or troops of the United states
with the organization OF q State Legisla-
ture or any of its proceedings, is repug,
nant to the principles of Constitutional
government, and .sv.t. ,.r.r... d.,
Whereas, The military interference OF
General De Trobriand, Of the United
States army, and soldiers under his COM
mand, with the organization of the Leg
islature of Louisiana, on the fourth OF
January, was without warrant of law;
therefore be il ..,.sr
Resolved, That the Committee on Ju-
dietary be instructed to inquire what leg
islation by Congress is necessary 10 Sc
cure to the lpeople of Louisiana their
rights Of seifgovernment under the Con-
stitution, and to report with the eleast pos
sible delay by bill or otherwise.
Mr.. Schurz said the first sentence OF
this pSeamble was taken from the Presi-
dents12essage and asno Senator ofeither
side, MT even the Senator from New
York, had undertak to assert that Gen.
De Tr6briand's action was warranted by
law, he hoped that the preamble would
have the unanimous approval OF the
Senate ,"l
Mr. Gordon, (Ga.), next addIessed the
Senate at length, after which Mr. West
obtained the floor, with the understand
ing that he would address the Senate
when the Louisiana discussion was re-

before though but little at that, are a sect of
most singular habits. Their name is de-
rived frem Memo Symons, contempora-
ry of Luther, who originated their pecul-
lar doctrines. That they resemble both the
Quakers and the Baptisis has frequently
been remarked. They decline TO take a
formal oath, and consider II sinful to pay
or receive pay for preaching. When new
minister is to be chosen the choice is made
by lot. The process was exemplified In
Rockingham county, Va, recently, when
two new ministers were TO be chosen and
ordained. Nominations were first received,
and whoever received even one vote was
put into the lot. In this case there were
twelve names suggested. On day set
apart for the ceremony twelve fresh copies
of the New Testament were taken, into
two of which slips of paper were placed,
one in each, by party who carried the
books into a separate room for the purpose.
This party left the room and another party
entering carried the books into the church,
after shufllng them about, and laid them
upon the pulpit. The candidates next
chose each a copy, and those drawing the
ones containing a slip were at once ordain-
ed. God is held responsible for the char
acter of the preaching, and the faithful are
content to receive ii as God gives it TO
them. The ministers make their living
by working as the rest of the people do.

An Era In GIass-making.

NJ. de la Bastie's invention marks dis
tinct era in the history of one of our most
important industries. Never during the
history of glass manufacture, which ex-
tends over some $500 years, has any radi-
cal change been effected in its character
The glass blowers of Egypt, who practised
their art before the exodus of the children
of Israel, and representations OF whom
have been found on monuments as ancient
as that event, produced a similar glass to
that of our own times. This has been pro-
we'd by an examination of glass ornaments
which have been discovered in tombs as
ancient as the days of Moses. 1t has been
proved, too, by large bead of glass, found
at Thebes, upon which was inscribed the
name of monarch who lived 1900 years
b. c., and which glass was of the same spe-
cifc gravity as our own crown-glass. 1t is
true Pliny mentions that a combination
was devised in the reign of Tiberius, which
produced flexible glass; but both the in
ventor and the apparatus were destroyed,
in order, 1t is said, 10 prevent the value of
copper, silver, and gold, from becoming
deprecated. There is, however, no evil
dence whatever that this was the toughen-
ing process of De Ia Bastie, nor does the
record in any way detract from the merits
of that gentleman as the inventor of an i'm
portant economic process. The fact re-
mains that the world has now given to it
for the first time, in practical form, an
invention by which the brittleness of glass
is superseded by an attribute OF the most
valuable nature-tougLness. II is by no
means improbable that the old adage, ''as
brittle as glass;" will be superseded by
new one-"as tough as glass. "-Poputdr

Self preservation is the first law of our
nature but it is a law which we ignorant
ly and constantly disregard in laying our
life and health at the mercy of the foul con-
dtions of life prevailing among our neigh
bors. We roll up our eyes and stand a
ghast when contemplating the horrors of
war, yet the mortality of war is trifiing as
compared with the mortality by preventa-
BILE disease. England, in twenty-five years
of continuous war, lost 1900 lives; in one
year of cholera she lost IA, $50 lives. We
look idly on and see our population deci-
mated by an infant mortality so great that
its like among calves and colts would ap-
pal the farmer, and set the whole commu-
nifty energetically at work to discover
remedy.-AtLantic Monthly.

RECOVERY FROM L1aurN1NG-SrRoKE.-

RECOVERY FROM oKE.-
In his valuable work on 1.-THE maintenance
of Health" DIR. Fothergill has the follow
ing on resustication amer lightning stroke:
"Persons struck by lightning arc not al
ways dead when they appear to be so.
There are few recoveries from this state,
because no means are tried to restore the
sufferer. In the tropics there are many
instances of persons, struck down by light
ming, recovering after heavy thunder
shower; and it would appear that cold af-
fusion to the body has decided action in
such cases. The injured cannot be harmed
by the free use of cold water, and if only
an occasional recovery took place 1t would
be well worth the pains bestowed. The
persons so injured should have cold water
poured or even dashed freely over them"
