Advices from Bosnia assert that the
insurrection was spread ing, and, what is
worse that Christians and Mohamnedans
are being massacred for refusing to take part
with the insurgents. Tit details of their
atrocities are sickening. The peace confer
ence at Suttoria between the leaders of the
Herzegovinian insurgents appear to have
resulted in nothing. The leaders have re-
turned to their posts and intend to resume
hostilities against the Turks on the 1lth

Mr.. Stewards Income.

On the occasion of the election of SIR
Nathaniel Mayer de ROthschild to the
house of commons, as one of the MEM
bers for Aylesbury, the English papers
estimated him to be worth Gl0, 900, 900,
or $50, 900 900, gold. In recent debate
in the house of commons on the sub
iect of the commissions of the Roths.
childs, in the matter of the purchase by
England of the Isthmus of SueZ canal
shares, Sir Nathaniel declared he was not
a partner in the house of Rothschild.
We can then fairly compare him with
our New York milliOnaires. If the Eng
lish papers are correct in their estimate
of Sir NathaniePs fortune, Mr.. Stewart
was probably the richer man of the two.
We need not compare the fortunes of
Stewart aud Vanderbilt with the vast
landed estates forming the bulk of the
fortunes of the English aristocracy.
Real estate in New York city Just now
is by no means so remunerative, thanks
to our stupid fiscal legislation, as real
estate in Great Britain. What the in
comes of the great mobiles of England
really are, it is very difficult accurately
to estimate. The new DOmesday Book
puts down the territorial income of one
great parsonage, the Duke of Norfolk,
not hitherto reputed among the richest
of his order, at no less than e264, ,504
sterling, or more than 81, 800, 900 in gold.
The Duke of Westminster is reputed to
enjoy revenue of more than S2,000,000
The Duke of DevOnshire, whose predeces-
sor held a higher position relatively
than himself among the British Crpsuses
of the upper house, is set down in the
new lists as receiving from his landed
estates in four English counties alone,
exclusive of Ireland and London, in both
of which he is a great proprietor, e127,-
633 in gold, or more than 100000. Our
own impression is that e20O,Oo0 in gold,
or 81 900, 900, would barely represent the
annual rentals and profits of the late Mr.
Mr.. Stewart-N. y World.

The New Tariff Bill.

The committee on ways and means
have added to the free list of the Morri-

cles: Window glass, painted or stained,

tional, literary, benevolent and religious
associations, and not for sale; books in
other languages than English, Greek or

cents pOund-the present rate is 81
pound opium, prepared for smoking,
and all other preparations not otherwise
provided for, 50 pound; licorice, in
paste or rolls, five cents pound.
The committee have added the follow
ing: Champagne and all other spark
ling wines in bottles, each containing not
more than one quart and more than one
pint, 50 a dozen bottles; containing not
more than one pint each and more than
one-half pint, $3.50 a dozen bottles;
containing One-half pint each or less,
1925 a dozen bottles-this is an increase
of one-third over the present rates; en-
ery grains, one cent pound emery ore,
50 a ton; emery, manufactured, ground
or puIvelized, One-half cent a POUND
this is a reduction of one-half the peseDtr
rates. The committee have not get
acted upon tea and cofHe, but have
nearly reached the end of the bill.

The FIDELITY OF A CONSCIENTIOUS
SwITCH-TENDER.-A switch-tender had
Just taken his place to change the track
in order to turn train which was in
sight so as 10 prevent collision with
another train from an opposite direction.
At this critical moment, on turning his
head, he discovered his little boy playing
on the track of the advancing engine.
He might spring to the rescue and re-
move him safely, but then he would not
have time to turn the switch, and hun
dreds of lives might be lost by his neg
lect. In an instant his resolution was
taken. "Lie DOWN." he shouted to his
boy, and the child happily accustomed
to obedience, promptly threw himself on
the ground and the whole train thun-
dered over him, the passengers little
dreaming how much their safety had cost
that father. The trembling man rushed
forward fearing to find only mangled
corpse, but no words can express his Joy
at seeing his child alive and unharmed.
The next day the emperor, having heard
of the circumstance, sent for the man,
aud presented him the medal of honor
for his bravery VolksblaH.

and forty bodies. The wagons discharged
their skeletOnic freight in the govern

and its contents was dropped into a
separate grave. There were no religious
or military services or ceremonies, and
the men hired to accompany the process
sion tossed the sacks of bones about with
as little care and feeling as they would
boxes of merchandise. A spectacle so
weird is not seen every day in Santa Fe.

the expedituren. The bed of the roads
are as solid as it is possible to build them; ;
the culverts, drains, and bridges, of cut
stone, brick and iron; the depots all
built of brick and tagged with cut stone,
and the railway shops constructed in the
most solid manner. Some of the bridges
in this country are marvels of size and
strength, and the newly-opened Alexan-
dria bridge, near Wirzabid, is the longest
railway bridge in the world, being some
thing over nine thousand feet in length,
and supported upon ninety-seven brick
piers. This railway system has secured
England's hold upon India against any
future rebellion, and, in my opinion,
against any attempt upon the part of
European powers to wrest it from her.
