Captain Bunce, Of the Leonida, is
the owner of a large Spitz dog named
Jack, that was picked up in tie mid
die of Long Island Sound several years
ago as he was swimming about several
miles from land. On Tuesday the
captain left the faithful creature on
the East Neck wharf by some mlshap,
and Jack, seeing the vessel some dis
lance out in the bay, decided to fol-
low. AS tho vessel was under good
Roadway, little notice was taken Of
his jun ping off the wharf, as it was
supposed that he would soon return.
The vessel reached New York that
night. Nothing was seen Of the dog
about here during the following day,
but what was the astonlshmonU Of the
captain and crew, or going up to the
deck while the vessel lay in her dock
in New York on the morning Of the
second day, to find the faithful Great
ure at his post watching over the yes
sci in his usual manner. lie was
thoroughly exhausted by his long
swim Of over forty miles, however,
and could do nothing but lie about
and recruit his strength for two or
three days.

At Joseph Winters restaurant is
a bulltrog that measures about thlr-

The dookeeper, Ntzhugh, has slepsd, or
in other words vacated the Office that Con-
gress has been trying to force him out of,
and has thereby saved them that trouble.
"Fitzy," as the facetious members were
disposed to call him by way Of abrsviation
and pleasant familiarity, felt the inglorious
means that had compelled him either to
leave or be bounced with considerable re-
sentiment, and when he did conclude to 60,
which was on Tuesday, took with him valu.
able papers and records, which it is said, if
exposed, will cause the Lightning to strike
on both sides of the House. If such is really
the case, then We regard Mr.. Fitzhugh, al
though thief for taking that which did
not belong to him, as a proper custodian
OF the documents. 1t is well to know the
dishonest men of any party, that they may
be avoided, and the sooner the electric cur
rent finds conductors the better it will be
for both the government and the people.

Morton tho Saddest of All,

A Washington correspondent writes:-
Mr.. Blaine will be able to attend the meet
ing of the sub-Judiciary Committee to-mor-
row, when the examination of witnesses In
regard to the Fort Smith and Little Rock
Railroad bonds will be continued. The
friends of Mr.. Blaine are not despondent
over the action of the Administration in
giving its influence fer Conkling, and assert
that it will have the contrary effect to what
was intended by the eriginators Of the coup
d'etat. The saddest of the Presidential
candidates is Senator Morton. His face
shows unmistakable evidences of disgust,
and his long and bitter fight for the Admin
iseration in the Senate yields no other re-
ward than the bloody shirt which still
waves over the seat Of the Senator from

THE WIN1LOW EXTRADlTION
CASE.

The grounds that the British Minister
assumed in refusing to surrender the for.
ger Winslow, are gradually being aband'
oned by them a. untsnabls. These
grounds are that the act of Parliament Of
1870 imposes conditions subsequent to the
Extradition Treaty Of 1s42. The modified
position now assumed, says the Philadel-
hia Ledger, "is, that the treaty itself i'm
plies that a fugitive surrendered for a
specific crime shall be tried for that crime
only. Then why not let the implied obli-
CATION rest upon the implied responsibility
Of the Government to which the fugitive
is surrendered? The attempt to exact an
express stipulation upon 4 constructive
implication is in no degree more tenable
than the ground first assumed and now
apparently abandoned. Tho fact is the
ministry has erred throughout this whole
controversy in trying to subject a treaty
between two powers 10 an en- post facto law
of one of them. There is reason in the
request that fugitive surrendered upon
one charge shall not be tried upon another.
That practice might lead to political op-
preston. But the method adopted by the
British Ministry to bring about the modi-
fed practice is bad one. Modification
of the treaty is the right course, and fail |
ing Of success in that, notice Of the termi-
nation of the extradition clause should be
the next step.
In the meantime there is no reason to
believe that the American government
will make any concessions. The reply of
Lord Derby has been considered in the
Cabinet and well deliberated, after which
It has been determined to adhere to the
American view of the matter. Informa-
ion from Washington states that the
will this week send an answer
o the English note, in which the Ameri- {
an case will be reafirmed, and then it is :
he intention to transrsit the entire cor |
to Congress for that body to !,
AXE such action as it may deem proper. h
is gratifying to know that the Foreign t
ommittee of both houses approve what v
as been done by the Administration in II
lis matter, so that Congress and the Ex- I
'utve will probably be in accord in s.
hatever final action may be taken. In -
nsland there is evidence of decided
tierence of opinion in reference to the =
and taken by Lord Derby in the case =
ut no disposition is shown by the author v
les in either country to imperl friendIv)

GRANT AND THE CAMERONS

AT first there were some misgivings that
). Donald Cameron would accept the pos
ltlon rendered him in the Cabinet by the
President. But positions of that kind are
not to oe picked up every day, and the IN
flnential Pennsylvania politician has G, Id
out the Republican vote of his State to
eonklns, ,and accepted the position. This
is remarkable illustration of circumstan-
ces altering cases. The Camerons and
Grant were enemies. The old man re-
garded Grant as a stupid blockhead and
Grant regarded the old man as a fool. and
not statesman. But in the fight against
Blaine, the President had to pick his tbun-
der from the sources that would prove most
effective, whether tasteful to himself or
not, and in the choice of Cameron, he ele.
waited one who had never forgiven him for
his long indifferenence to the frienship Of
State that almost of itself made hin,
President for the second term. AT the
eleventh hour, the President sees his mis-.
take, and that it will destroy any political
ends that he may wish to serve, and it is
therefore when he finds himself nursing =
burning desire for revenge, that he cIast
hands with old enemies to consumatestba,
aching wish. In his great scheme to de.
feat Blaine, Pennsylvania is one of hi,
greatest strongholds, and with Ohio and
New York added to it, the combination is
formed, that must win in the Cincinnati
Convention. Grant has strong preindiceu
but they are ef that kind that will bend ,f
strike higher, and humble themselves be.
fore those lower in his revengeful pur
poses. Thus it is that the Camerons ano
Grant have shaken hands, and smoked tn,
pipe of peace, that has sold out the Re-
publican party in Pennsylvania to Gran
and Conkling.

Cen enf1agratIOM OF Market BaAke ct

A queer accident is thus described by the
Reading (Penn.) Times "The wife of a
farmer resident near Alburtis the other dav
was on her way to one of the stores in Mill
erstownwith lot OF farm products-butter,
eggs, &c, the whole bundled up in Dumer-
GUS cloths. A live coal from an engine on
the East Pennsylvania Railroad, alongside
OF the track OF which she was walking, was
driven into her basket, aud the linens gni-
ted unknown to her. She kept on her way,
carrying the miniature cOnflagration with
her until at last cracking noise and COL
umn of smoke rising from her side CAUSED
her to make an n,estigation, when to her
horror part of the butter had melted from
the heat and run out OF the baskets bottom,
while the eggs had cracked, and escaping
from the shell actually baked under the act
ion of the fire to which they were subjected.
The woman after this loss retracpd her
steps homeward to repair damages as far as
The material left would permit.

The construction that the New York
Hersld puts upon the recent event in politi-
cal circles, in Washington, is amusing. It
compares Grant with jackson, and saws the
President, like old Hickory, has found it
necessary to reform his cabinet. But where
is the reform' Pierrepont goes to England
as Minister to st. James. If he was unfit
TO be in the cabinet and the President could
not throw him overheard, it is very Door
reform to put him into an office that
schenck disgraced. The reform certainly
was not intended even if there has been any,
for Judge Taft, who took the place of the
notorious Belknap, has been elevated to the
one vacated by Pierrepont, and j. Donald
Cameron takes the position made vacant by
the promotion of Judge Taft. If the changes
were made to bring about regeneration of
the cabinet We think it has been very poorly
done, for two of them have ascended I
grade higher.
