The Charleston Ne,cS reproduces the Rev.
s. A. sTEEI.'s letter to the Dispatch on the
one side, and as to the other side it says:
"Unless the former are strangely mis-
represented by the leading newspapers OF
their section very wide difference OF view
exists between the two Churches regarding
the ultimate scope of the work entrusted to
the commissioners. At the North the re-
suit accomplished at Cape May seems to be

Fossil Plants in Greenland.

From the fossil remains of numerous
landplants and few insects found in the
MiOcene beds of Disco Island, it appears
that in comparatively recent times lux
uriant vegetation, somewhat similar in
character TO that of California or the
Southern United States, fourished in
these arctic wastes. Luxuriant evergreen
oaks, magnolias and sequoias, grew where
now is found only the dwarfwillow,
creeping along the ground with stem
not over half an inch in diameter.
Among the fossil trees of Greenland,
Prof Heer has discovered three distinct
species of sequoia, nine of oak, four of
which were evergreen, like the Italian
oak, two beeches, chestnut, two planes
and walnut. "Besides these" writes
Prof. Heer, American species, such as
the magnolias, sassafrasses and liquid.
ambers, were represented there 4; and the
characters of the ebony-tree are to be dis.
tinguished in two of the species. The
hazel, the sumach. the buckthorn and
the holly, the guelder-rose, and the
white, probably formed the thickets at
the borders of woods; while the vine, the
ivy and the sarsaparilla climbed .ver
the trees of the virgin forest, and adorned
taem with garlands. In the shadow of
the wood grew a profusion of ferns, which
covered the soil with their elegant fronds.
The insects which gave animation TO
these solitudes are not all lost. The i'm
pressions Of these which have reached us
show that Chrysomelos and Cdstitide en-
joyed themselves in the sun, and the
large Trogsite pierced the bark Of the
trees, while the charming Cicadelio
leaped about among the herbage." In
all, about one hundred and sixty-seven
species of Miocene plants have been dis
covered in Greenland.-Poputar Science

A Boys Composition on Parents.

Parents are born to be great trouble
to their offspring. They upset all fel-
lows plans. 1t would be jolly not to have
any. When l was ever so little, re-
member. tried to hang up the kitten
by my whip-lash, and mother took the
kitten away, boxed my ears, and went
and drowned it herself, the next day.
She had all the fun herself; and fathers
worse than mother. He told me to take
care of the pennies, and the dollars would
take care of themselves so l and Ben
Smith formed an Anti.Swearing Club.
We had rule that for every profane
word we used we should pay one cent
into the treasury. We had seventy-fve
cents in the first day, but when we
divided, and / fetched thirty-seven and
half cents home, father said it was
bad business, whipped me, and broke up
the club. How is fellow to know when
he is doing right2 If had no parents
to hound me around, I'd beat George
Washington all holler, for I'd cut down
every cherry tree in the garden, and
own it, too. If l was an orphan, know
what I'D do tomorrow. Ben Smith and
me would 60 straight to desolate South
Sea Island, and stir up the goats and
monkeys and things, crack cocoa-nuts,
fry tOad.stools, eat oranges spell, and
then we'd make ship and sail all around
the world. What's the use of drying up
in one place? l told mother one day,
when she wouldn't give me ten cents,
that l meant to go whaling, and /
hoped whale would swallow me as one
did Jonah, and then she wouldn't never
see me again, for can't swim. She said
l wouldn't be likely to make much of a
visit, for would turn the whales stom.

dren have some fun. There's Tom Cults
lives with his aunt, and has bully time.
He goes woodworking and ceiling, Sun
days, has no best clothes, and no pocket
handkerchiefs to bother him, crawls
under the canvas of every circus tent,
earns money at the theater, sleeps in the
stable when he likes, and always has his
pocket full of peanuts. He says he
wouldn't be bothered with parents, If he
could have 'em for nothing, and he thinks
if / hadn't any it would be money in
my pocket. Them's my sentiments.

The London Press on the Belknap
Scandal.

The Times says editorially of the Belk-
nap scandal: This event is more grave
because it is confirmatory of suspicion
which has long prevailed among the
American people. Even we Europeans
can not but be struck with the altered
tones in which Americans speak, if not
of their institutions, at least of the
men who have the present direction Of
them.
The Netcs, alluding to the same SUBJ
ject, says the American political life
seems to be in anything but healthy
condition. 1t refers to the whisky
fraud trials, the Emma Mine scandal and
the downfall of Belknap, and says that
these scandals lift the veA from class
of society which it was hitherto pretty
generally supposed had as yet escaped
the impurities of the social strata below,
and they lead one to fear that some of
the worst vices of municipal government
may be percolating into the Federal ad-
ministration.
The Telegraph says: Disclosures after
disclosures, charges after charges, vary
ing in degrees of truth, but with, at the
same time, ugly and outward character,
have lately darkened the commercial,
religious, judicial and administrative in
stitutions of the United States. Some
have proved false, others true, and more
await evidence, but the general effect be-
yond denial has been, and is, to bring
the blush of shame and anxiety into the
faces of all honest Americans, and to
make the countless friends of the repub-
lie in this country silent and sorrowful
when its enemies rejoice over these re-
curing revelations.
The Standard says: Happily, the
countries are few where 50 gross an abuse
of trust would be possible.

The Belknap Drama.

The closing scenes of the last act of
the drama are sketched by the witness
with unconscious vividness; the easy
going, obtuse and blundering impertur-
liability of the blundering Cabinet Of
ficer, even after the investigating COM
mittee had subpenaed his partner in
jobbery; the despairing and womanlike
suggestion of the wife that the guilt be
thrown by Marsh wholly on herself as
his partner in the corruption; the white
Tipped family consultation i'm Belknap's
gorgeous parlor on the night of the 23d
of February, at the same hour that the
fate of BabcOck and his agOnized family
was also trembling in the balance; the
proposition of Marsh to leave the coun-
try or cut his throat before perjuring
himself before the committee +; the cry of
Belknap that it would ruin him if Marsh
fed the reply, "If l 60 before the COM
mittee / will surely ruin you, for will
tell the truth :" the departure for New
York by the midnight train the advise
of his counsel to Marsh to leave the
country; the packing of his trunk for the
flight; the midnight arrival of DR.. Tom
linson, the Secretary's brother.in-law ;
the writing and rewriting of an exculpa-
tory letter, that contained nothing
untrue, but was not the whole truth
the daily trips of Tomlinson back and
forth between Washington and New
York the agony over the framing OF
versions Of the conversations with Mrs.
Belknap; the final explosion and clean
breast of the whole wretched business
all this forms rapidly moving drama
which it may well be hoped will never
be repeated in real life.-Boston Trans

The Glorious Privilege Of the Ballot
In Cincinnati.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer we learn
how the virtuOus citizens of the Fourth
Ward in that city exercise the sacred
rights of freemen:
Mr.. Pat OBrien, Councilman of the
Fourth Ward, called at this Office last
night and made some rather severe
charges in regard to the counting Of the
vote i'm that ward at the recent railroad
election. He says substantially that he
desired it distinctly understood that he
was opposed to the road aud had voted
against it both times. Yet he desired
fair play. AS one Of the Judges he did
his best to preserve the purity of the
ballotbox at his polls, but from the first
he saw that such thing would be in-
possible. The other two Judges were
George Duffy and Steigleman, both
opponents of the road. In the morning,
Dufy's brother, Arthur, persisted on
staying Oh the inside of the inclosure
with the Judges. To this he had objected,
but it did no good, except to incite Duffy
to call him hard names, and threaten
him with personal violence. When the
ballotbOx was opened in the evening,
and the count commenced, it was found
tudb tuCiC WCiC dDOut lOut NOtcS lOI tiC
road to one against it. At least, when
the first string of twenty negative votes
was counted, there were four strings of
twenty votes each in the affirmative.
At this point George Duffy, he states,
put his hand into the ballot-box, took
out a handful of tickets and threw them
on the floor behind the table. About the
same time, he was observed to be busy
separating punches of tickets which had
evidently been folded together and de-
posted in the box in a lump. These
tickets, he noticed, were all nays" lie
objected to all these high.handed, bold
faced frauds, but without any good re-
sulting from it. He simply got curses
for his trouble. But when one man was
allowed to come to the table, and,
deliberately picking up bunch of
affirmative votes, put them into his
pocket and walk away with them, he was
not willing to be party to the farce any
longer. So he arose, put on his coat, and
said: Gentlemen, l will have nothing
more to do with these frauds" He
thereupon left, perfectly disguised, and
went home not TO 60 back again.
