Rev. l.. F. Drake, a we'll known
member of the Ohio Annual Conference
of the NJ. f. church, stationed at Bloom
ingburg, Fayette county, died very sud-
denly at that place last Sunday. After
preaching at the usual morning hour,
and before he had completed the services
appointed for the occasion, he was taken
i'll, excused himself, and started home.
Before reaching his house, however, he
became helpless, was carried to his
house and very soon expired. Mr..
Drake was greatly beloved in and out OF
the church. He was faithful
and most efficient minister Ohio

Sub Treasury Statistics.

The annual returns from the sub-treas.
uries have just been received at the treas
ury department. The Boston branch re.
ports total business for the year of $97,-
065,2S9, which, with the balance on hand
IN the sub treasury at the end of the last
fiscal year, is sos, SIC. These returns,
when contrasted with those of last year,
show an aggregate increase of business, but
a diminution of receipts from certain sour
ces. Last year, the receipts from customs
sources were something more than $l8,-
100000. This year, they are about &c.
600, 1000. On the other hand, the receipts
for last year, including the balance on
hand, were STA 200, 900, while the receipts
for this year, including the balance on
hand, are more than $108,000 900. The
total business of the year at the Chicago
branch was 1884, 455, G72, an increase over
the preceding year of $10,307.7l3. The
years receipts at Cincinnati were S27, 00O..-

The Guibord Burial Case. Again

The Guibord funeral and attempt to bury
the body in the Catholic cemetery at Mon
treal will take place, it is now asserted,
either on Saturday or early next week. The
probability of any serious repetition of in
reference on the part of the French Cath
olics has been lessened by the circular let.
tiers of the bishop, counseling peace, and in
the firm yet tardy action of the auth6lsies
IN providing for the presence of large
body of police and militia. The authori-
ties have also resolved, much to the sur
prise of the French Catholics, upon prose-
cutting II of the Guibord rioters, who took
part in the disturbance of the 2d of Sep
TENDER, and have already arrested five of
them. But MS the Canadian law requires
the trial of Frenchman by Frenchmen it
is hardly probable that jury can be found
who will not acquit all the rioters arralgn-
ed for trial

Sam Randall and the Speakership.

The Baltimore Gazette makes savage
raid upon the candidacy Of sam Randall
for the speakership, and charges that ac-
tive trading is going on in Washington to
secure his election, and that there is mmi-
nent danger that the scheme will succeed.
The Gazette says 'The plan TO secure
Mr.. Randall's election is to unite the inha
ton members of the democratic side of the
house with the republicans, by divers
pledges and assurances, and thus defeat a
more Incorporating independent demo.
crat for the place. 1t is maintained that as
an extreme protec,ionist Mr. Randall would
throw the control Of the important COM
mittees into the same power which now
controls them under Mr.. Blaine, and would
thus aid the republicans in carrying out
their ruinous high tariff policy. Further
more, it is more than limited that those re-
publican members with furnished records,
who fear the const quences Of rigid investi-
cations of sundry acts OF legislative job
berry, for suspicious reasons, are strongly
in favor of Mr.. Randall"

A New Phase in the Whisky Frauds.

The whisky fraud question has been
given new phase by the publication of a
long correspondence showing beyond
doubt that in the summer of 1874 promi-
nenl lawyer of St. Louis presented to Mr..
Douglass, the then commissioner of inter-
nal revenue, the a.nplest evidence of the
frauds in st. Louis The question is at
once raised, why did not Mr. Douglass act
upon this information And thereby
hangs an interesting tale. In the February
following the dates of the letters, Secretary
Bristow, upon receiving simple statement
from another source that great whisky
ring existed in St. Louis, which could be
easily broken up, if it was proceeded
against without the knowledge of the in
ternal revenue office, at once instituted
the effective investigation which has pro
duced such startling and wholesome re-
suite. Ex-Secretary Richardson and ex-
Commissioner Douglass now have the floor
if they have any explanation to make.

The President and the Whisky
Frauds.

The st. Louis Republican of the 9th inst.
says: "The attempt to get the whole re-
publican party interested in saving the
revenue delinquent comes too late. We
believe President Grant is wholly discon-
nected with the whisky frauds. Our in
formation is reliable that he has co-opera-
ted thoroughly with Secretary Bristow in
unearthing the frauds. When appealed to
by Mcdonald, Joyce, and others to inter.
fere with Bristow's work, he firmly, and
with emphasis, declined, us he has since
done. He has been visited at Washington,
Long Branch, and here by scores of per-
sons advising the dismissal of the suits, but
invariably replied rs before, taking the
ground that if innocent the facts would
vindicate the officers under the most search
ing Investigation. 1t had, indeed, reached
the point where this position was necessary
to indicate himself. During the presi-
dents late visit to st. Louis, General Nc
Donald sent up his card for personal in
terview, when, as we are credbly informed
Mr.. Grant returned word that 'he could
not receive or hold intercourse with any
government official resting under the
odium Of Indictment for defrauding the
revenue. No doubt the president has been
imposed upon, and very shamefully, too,
by his professed friends but, if ne had
any real connection with the whisky ring,
he is quite as willing that all the facts
shall be known, as that he shall rest under
a suspicion fully as damaging"

The Credit of Virginia.

In noticing the result of the election in
Virginia, which was for members of the
house of delegates and one half of the
state senators, the Richmond Wing, an
anti-funding paper, Of Thursday. says
Enough is known to assure us that in the
house, as well as in the senate, there will
be sufliciency of ability, intelligence and
experience to compare favorably with any
legislature we have had for many years in
Virginia. 1t is well that it is 50, for there
will be questions of public concern to be
considered which will require the calmest
judgments, the highest devotion to the
state, and the most comprehensive and ele-
waited views, to adjust legislation upon
them 10 the best advantage tor the public
good. The question of the STATE debt will
in all probability, be the chief subject of
absorbing interest, and the most difficult to
determine with satisfaction to all parties
If there has ever been any ground for a
fear of Reputation, we think we may safe
ly say there is none now. The people of
Virginia will be really represented by a
legislature determined in good faith to
stand by the obligations of the state. But
at the same time they would be misrepre-
sented by any man or any measure looking
to an increase of the present rate of taxa.
