The Way Grant Has Sacrificed Himself.
From the New York Sum-

lFrom the New York Sun.
The pay of the General of the army is fixed
by law at S13,50O. That of President has
been $50, 600 year since the fourth of March,
1873, and was raised by the Presidents per-
sonal importantly. From Washington to
Grant it had never varied from $25, 900 year.
Nov let us see how the account stands:
Four years President, from 1869 to 1873,
at *25, 900 500, 900
-Four years President, from 1878 to 1877,
at $50, Goo 200 600
Total. $500, 900
Eight years General, from 1869 to 1877. 103,0C0
Excess in salary as President. ........ sl92, 0CO
It would have required more than twenty
two years for him as General to have realized
the salary he will have received for eight
years as President. Or, in other words, he
could not before 1891, as General, have drawn
from the treasury the $780, 900 which he will
have drawn as President, if he lives to the 4th
of March, 1877.
But this is not all The enormous sums
voted annually for the President by the Re-
publican msjorities in Congress. under vari-
GUS prete xts of furnishing and repairing the
White House, improving the grounds, keep
ing up greenhouses, and the like, exceed all
precedent and more than double the largest
grant made in q quarter of q century before.
These perquisites or emoluments average
more than SO, 600 year.

the Premium Bond Plan, skipped up nearly
ten points. with a prospect of going higher.
Securities that were kicked about the streets
few days ego are now sought for eagerly,
and the impression exists that in the near
future city evidences of indebtedness will
crawl upward to the vicinity of par. Should
this prove correct, we shall never cease to sing
p@ns to the wisdom of the City Fathers, who
found the city cast in slough of despond
and succeeded in setting her up upon hill.
There can be no doubt about the ability of
the city to settle her troubles if she shall
vigorously prosecute well devised systems Of
economy. Among other things that might be
done to advantage, We think, is the farming
out the cleaning Of the city to contractors.
The different districts might be farmed out
separately or together; but it would probably
be best to separate them, as in that event a
spirit of rivalry would be created which would
rebound to the general good. The contracts
should be made very stringent however, SO
that the city could at ell times enforce their
terms and hold the contractors to rigid per-
Torrance of their duties.
We are indebted to Mr.. Thomas Hepp,
son of our late esteemed friend, William T.
Hepp, of the firm of Rochereau & Co., for

able farm on Rosedsle Plantation, about two

II THE POINT WELL MADE.

"The Harrisburg Saline county, Hill
nois.l Chronicle" saye the STATE REGISTER,
"makes its point well as follows;
The Cairo BvLLETIS charactcrizes
| the proposition TO abolish the Normal
schools az "A reputation Of the contracts
| made BY the State with the people OF
| Mclean and Jackson counties How II j.
| with Mclean we do not know, but If our
memory serves us right the contract with
| the people of Jackson was 'rcpudlatcd'
| some time since by the refusal of the city
OF Carbonate 10 pay the bonds voted TO
secure the location of the Normal AT that
place.
The point iSnot well made, anu the
State Register ought to know the fact.
Carbonate nearly impoverished itself
| by the bids ii made to secure the Normal
school and. anxious TO be relieved of
the burden. the council got into the
courts the question of the liability of the
city to pay the subscription the city had
made to the school. The circuit court of
Jackson decided in favor of the city, but
the Supreme court reversed the
decision and required the city
TO stand by its contract with
the State. II then the contract bind, the
city, why should itnot also bind the
State! I'VE will give you so many
bonds II you will locate Normal school
in our city" said the people Of Carbon
dale to the State. agreed" said the
State; and it proceeded to put up the
buildings and employ the faculty. "Now
pay the bonds. J." said Illinois to the Dco-
pie of Carbonate. 1--WE will not: we
have received no legal consideration for
the bonds you demand" replied the pco-
| pie of Carbonate. 1--WE will See" said
the State: and it asked the courts to de
| eide the question. The courts decided
against the people Of Carbondale and the
bonds must be paid. And now comes in
Senator Burke, saying: LET us abolish
the Normal school," We say: mo; the
State agreed with the people IF Carbon
dale that If that city would pay certain
| bonds the State would establish
and maintain Normal school at Car
bondale. The court says the contract is
binding as against the city, and We hold
that it is also binding as against the
State" 1t is clear case.
Besides this, private individuals gave
to the State the ground on which the
Normal building is locatcd-gave it to be
used Tor specific purpose. Can the
State now refuse to stand by this contract
with the ground owners: Surely not
without paying them tor the land, and
this Senator Burke does not propose to
do.
We do not believe the Chronie, made
its point well, and We do not understand
how any honest person can advocate the
proposition Of the gentleman from Ma

THE YEAR OF JUBILEE.

Pope Plus Ninth has proclaimed the
Jubilee, and his triumphant assertion
two years ago, when, sick and cnfeebled,
he said he would not die until he had
proclaimed the Jubilee has been verified.
The pontifical instrument was given III
Rome and dated the oath of December,
1874, and is addressed Ito all the
I,atriarchs, primates, archbishops, bishops
and other ordinaries of places having
grace and communion with the Apos-
tolic See, and to all faithful Christians"
The origin OF the Jubilee of the Ro-
man Catholic church Is traced to the
reign of Pope Boniface Eighth who insti-
tuted il in the year 1900. During that yeai
the number of pilgrims in Rome never
fell below two hundred thousand. As
instituted by Boniface, the Jubilee was to
be held every hundred years. Pope Gle
ment the Sixth abridged the time to fiity
years, ut the request of the people OF
Rome. and his Jubilee in the year 1850
was attended by one million pilgrims. In
| lI70, by edict of Paul the Second, the
Jubilee was ordered to occur every TWEEN
ty-flve years. which has been the custom
ever since, with two exceptions; inlsOO'
the Holy See was vacant and other
troubles existed In the church
in 1850, the church was also
enveloped in troubles and the celebration
of the Jubilee was omitted. Now the
church is also under cloud, but the
Pope has issued his proclamation and the
year of Jubilee will be kept. though
not with the outward observances
usually attending the occasion.

Rome. The celebration of the carnival
In Paris is grand and magnificent
affair. ms Is also that ut Venice and Rome.
During the procession of the carnivS in
Rome the population appears. on the
route and all engage IN casting bonbons,
flowers and confetti at each other. The
confetti are small pellets of lime dust
which scatter over whatever they are
thrown against, giving TO the object a
white appearance. Numbers of people,
wherever the carnival is celebrated, be 1t
in America or Europe, wear masks, cos
tune themselves as harlequins. pallta-
looms. and punchnellos. and parade the
streets with inflated bladders attached to
short sticks, with which they administer
| noisy but harmless blows.
