Samuel B. Covall, clerk at the Sault St
Marie canal for five Years, has absconded
and, it is presumed, taking with him a
| large amount of funds. 1t was ascer
iained that he took passage on the pro.
peller Celtic, and kilograms were sent TO
Port Huron to have him intercepted !:
but it appears that he had thoroughly
canvasscd his situation, and Iatl e.. than
run the risk of being captured he made
his arrangements and jumped; owe board
before reaching that port, rs the follow
ing note, written ON linen collar, would
indicate:
CAPT. KILE: Desperate men take
desperate chances. | will send you pay
for your life-preserver some time If it on
ly does good service now and takes me
| about miie to shore.
A careful search was made of the boat
upon her arrival at Port Huron, but the
abscOnder was not to be found. 1t is not
known whether or not he succeeded in
reaching the shore, and it may possibly
be that he was drowned in making the
attempt. Mr.. Covall had heretofore en-
joyed a good reputation, and it is to be
regretted that he has allowed himself to
destroy, by this act, his good name.
Advices received since the above was
in type would seem to indicate that Mr..
Covall's hasty departure was occasioned
by the Canal Board of Control sending
up an expert book-keepfrto make an cx-
animation Of the books of the office at the
Sault. The state will lose nothing by the
embezzlemnt, as the bouds of the alb
sconding clerk are sufficiently ample to
cover any deficiency that may be discov-
cred.

House Burned.

Last Tuesday morning about 10 o'clock
Allen CamerOn's dwelling, situated on
his farm near the vi lage, caught fire, and
no aid being at hand TIE building and all
it contained, with the exception of IL W
small articles. was burned. The fire is
supposed to have caught from sparks
from the stove in the kitchen, which
was lower than the main portion of the
building. The greater portion of the
building was unfinished, and in that part
Mr.. Cameron had stored several tons of
hay and considerable wheat. all of which
was, of course, consumed. The loss OF
the building and contents will reach
500 or $500, which, to a man i'm Mr..
Cameron's cond { on. is a Sc e one. No
alarm reached the village, and even If an
alarm had been given nothing could have
been done to save the property. owing 20

That Subterranean OutIet.

In an article in the April number ol
Scribner an old theory of a subterranean
passage between lakes Huron and Ontario
was revived. This has now called out an
article from the pen of ID. Farrand Hen
ry. engineer of the Detroit water board
in which, by showing the ratio Of rainfall
to discharge, he efiectually explodes the
subterranean hypothesis. Mr.. Henry
was for many years connected with the
lake survey, and while in this service it
became his duty accurately to ascertain
the facts upon which his argument is
based.

In order thata comparison may be had
with the last valuation bY the Board. we

From which it will be seen that Che
boygan county has. in the estimation of
the Board, largely outstripped her neigh
boring counties during the past five
years. At the valuation placed upon her
in 1871, she was assessed equally with
Chippewa, Mackinaw and Presque Isle.
and $4,000 less than Sclhoolcraft: but,
under the valuation this year. she will be
assessed $350,000 above Mackinaw, and
100000 above any Of tie rest, her i'll
creased valuation being $750O0O. Thirty
three counties are valued at less
amount than in 1871. In thirty-three
coun, les the valuation is sincreased. There
are six counties that at the valuation of
1871 were attached to other counties.
which will probably account for the de-
crease in valuation of some of the coun-
ties. -Four counties have the same valu-
alton they had i'm 1871. Isle Royal and
Manitou counties are each valued at
100000, which is the lowest valuation
placed upon any county in the state.
TO show the rapidly of increase in
value OF Cheboyg;.n county, we give the
valuation as placed upon it by the Board
OF Equalization at tie last three meet
ings: In 1866, it was only S152.s6l: in
1871, $45OO0O; and 1876, Sl,2OO,OOO. The
aggregate valuation OF the whole state is
$63O,O00,0O0, Which is the same amoun;
as the valuation Of 1871. The largest in
crease in valuation is that of WAYNE
county, S7,25o.0G0 being added TO the
amount of that of 1871. The largest de-
crease is that of St. Joseph county, a re-
duction of s6.225,00O being made in the
valuation of that county. The amount
of state tax levied for 1876 is S69S. 1872 so.

Fish for INLAND E,DIxcs.


AT recent meeting of the fish COM
mlssioners they decided to put into the
inland lakes of the state, at the proper
season, 100000 whitefish, 1000. 600
lake trout, and 100000 Skenea.elcs trout.
a species very liltle inferior, in the esti-
nation of those familiar with their auali-
ties, TO the speckled trout. Arrange
ments have been made with the fisher
men at Crosse Isle for a supply of white
fish spawn, which will be taken to the
state hatchery and hatched out so as to
be ready for delivery at the proper time
for putting them in the inland lakes.
The commission have also perfected
arrangements for supplying other varie-
ties OF fish, including eels, in expectation
that the Legislature this coming winter
VIII vote additional funds to aid in the
PROPAGATION of fish in the state. The ad
Wees the commissioners have received
from their efforts last winter is such as
to give them great encouragement. The
Detroit Post says the fish at the state
hatchery show finely. Some of the SAL
mon 21s years old will weigh 1 % pounds,
and are about II inches along. The
speckled trout are perfect, beauties AMI
growing apace. So Wi h the whitefish-
rayling-proving that under proper
conditions there can be no doubt of the
success of fish culture.
Ii is to be hoped that there are those in
terested in the lakes of this section who
will take enough interest in the matter
TO see that the lakes of this region Sc
cure from the commission share of the
amount to be distributed.

Tilden.s Revenue Franz.

The Detroit Evening News. the lead
ing Independent paper of the state in re-
ferring to the late charge against Mr.
Tilden of making false returns of his in
come in the years 1862 and 1868 thereby
defrauding the government, says s'the ev-
idence of Tilden's alleged fraud and per-
jury is of such a nature that it demands
an immediate and thorough going an.
swer. If the Democratic candidate fol-
the Presidency is not able to show that
he is innocent o these grave charges. the
honest element of his party, as well as
the public sentiment of the country, will
demand that he be deposed from the head
of tie national ticket. 1t is not enough
to say that the law requiring the income
tax was evaded bv many tax a eys; it is
| not enough to charge thai the law was
| linqnisitorial i'll its nature. 1t was a law.
and SamuslJ Tilden, leading lawyer that
he was. head Of the Democratic commit
tee that he was, was amenable to chat
law as much as any other citizen. If ne
has deliberately, and for years. perjured
himself, he is not the man to be Presi
dent OF the American people, however
brilliant his reform rccoli and However
loud his reform protestations. Before
Mr. Tilden was nominated, it w:is stated
ut Washington that certain facts i'm his
record were known which, when made
public, would blast his hopes and pros
poets for the Presidency. 1t was further
stated that these facts would not be
out till that stage Of the campaign arrived
when they would be most effective. So
excellent had been Mr.. TiI,lcn's record as
Governor of New York, that these state
ments from Washington were regarded
merely as idle rumOrs, or idler threats.
The first serious charge brought again t
him, having the seeming of sufficient
truthfulness and importance to do him
injury, was that in connection with the
Terre Haute railroad case. This. how
ever, WAS surrounded by so many legal
techncalities and forinalitics, and was so
promptly answered by a similar array OF
legal forms, that it had no seeming effect
in reducing Mr.. Tilden's support. The
general public cared little for the formal
tiles Or mysteries of what seemed 10 be
fight between railroad magnates or a
claim for professional services. But these
later Developments, these charges OF fraud
and perjury, are so plain, so simple in tile
forms OF statement, and, withal, so
damning in their import, that the most
ordinary mind cannot tail to grasp them;
and the humblest member of The Deme-
cratic party with any claim to honesty OF
character or purpose, will demand a
prompt answer. As stated on Saturday
in some comments on this subject, the
American people are actuated by cleal-
ly defined love Of Justice. They will
hear Mr. Tilden's defense patiently and
to the uttermost. But the emergency is
great; the charge is grave and the de-
Tense must be prompt; if it be saiisa,c-
tory, Mr.. Tilden will secure not ONLY the
congratulations that attend acquittal, but
the sympathy that attaches to the case of
a man unjustly charged. But if it is not
proved at once that he is innocent of
fraud and perjury, his star of hope and
success must wane and set.
