The Last Michel.

The nickel is an interesting coin.
Whether it is contemplated by the spot
taire" Of the horse.car as it ranges itself
in the glass box for his inspection
whether it is silently transferred to the
weak'eyed beggar boy who stirs up the
human heart, or whether it is passing
over the counter Of some honest grocer
in exchange for an article more adulte-
rated than. itself, it is equally an object
of thoughtful interest. That this popu-
lar coin should strike the fancy of the
couLterfeiter is no wonder, for in cor.
rupt times likes these the couHterfeiter
is not so very far removed from the rest
of u%s-unless, perhaps, he may have
been removed to the ~penitentiary. We
all have something like an affection
for the nickel "a pure sentiment,
with which the pecuniary value Of
the thing has nothing whatever to
do. 1t may be merely the effect of
association, but, whatever it is, we have
it, The fact that the nickel is counter.
feited does not spoil its reputation. The
counterfeits, strange to say, are just as
good, barring the I'm God We Trust" OF
the mint, as the original coin. And there
by hangs a joke on the government. The
superintendent Of the mint at Philadel
phia, after a careful essay, announces to
the public that the counterfeits contain
copper and nickel in the legal proper
ton, and that they are Of proper weight,
size and finish, SO that the counterfeit.
er's metal is exactly as valuable as that
Of Uncle Sam. This may prove the death
Of our beloved nickel. We shall hate to
see itgo, but perhaps the time for the
silver bill has really come. Pass up
your fare, gentlemen; you may never
have another opportunity to put only
nickels in the box"

A Wen Known Mempbian.

The St. Louis Republican thus de.
scribes a well known Memphian, a chap
whom everybody has met on Main street
He is always on the street, and if you
walk much you will meet him at least
once a week. he bears down at a rapid
pace, and appears to be going to pass on
your left, but at the distance Of tive feet
he s~uddeAly ducks to the right. You put
on your brakes and try to veer to the
east, he veers TO the east, you try the
west, he tries the west, you try the gutter
side, ne tries the gutter side, you try the
inside, be tries the inside, you become
excited and jump for aa opening on bis
right, be Aushes up and jumps in the
same direction. There are bat two WAYS
to get By this excitable idiot. The one
IS to right-about-face, and 60 round the
block; the other is to grab him around
the waist and hold him till a policeman
comes up and let's you go by.

ClOo.
In the Criminal Court to-day the case
of John Holmes, indictment for murder,
is on hearing. On Saturday afternoon,
the 7th of August last, several railroad
men we're playing cards in a saloon on
Charleston avenue, when one of them,
John Holmes, drew a pocket knife and
cut in twain the jugular vein of Thomas
Montgomery, killing him almost instant
ly. W. F. Montgomery, brother to
Thomas, was present, and he at once
drew a deringer and following Holmes
from the saloon fred at him, the ball
passing through his forearm. Holmes
then with knife in hand chased Mont.
gomery, but was arrested before further
injury could be done. 1t seems that bad
feeling had existed between the parties,
and this was the cause of the difficulty.

The Grent Fire in New York.

NEW YORK, February 9.-The fire
Last night did its work thoroughly, and
vast crowds OF spectators gaze az the
Tujns to-day, wondering how any part
of tine block mad been saved. Where a
ereat block Of solid brick and iron
Findings stood last night is now great
chasm. in which lie in confusion piles
of steaming brick and fragments Of bent
and twisted giTders, bounded by black
ened wslIs, some Uf which are already
totteripg to their fall. Two engine COM
nsnies and hook and ladder company
are at work to-day, pouring water into
the smouldering mass OF ruin, and
tumbling down the dangerous walls.
At present it is impossible to obtain an
accurate list of all the losses and insur-
ence The total loss is estimated by
GOOD Judges at about three million dol
lars and the total insurance at two
niIijon dollars. The bodies Of David
NnIden and David Clute, the firemen
who were killed, were viewed by the
corouer's jury this morning. Both men

heen placed around the burned district,
and travel and traffic are interdicted
therein. The fire has devolved heavy
losses upon the British fire insurance
companies in this city, and it is supposed

fifty thousand or two hundred thousand
pounds exchange Immediately.

"A Frank AVOWaI.

BERLIN, February 9.-In the reichstsg
to-day bill amending the penal code
came up for third reading. The debate
was on the clauses which were recently
rejected imposing penalties Oh members
Of secret societies and to prevent the in
citing OF hostility between different
classes and attacking of national insti-
tutions. Prince Bismarck participated
in the debate, and urged the reinsertion
OF the clauses which had been thrown
out. He animadverted upon the mis-
statements and calumnies of the press,
and instauced the invention of war ru-
mors last spring by newspapers, which
were falsely considered ss semi official.
He emphatically denied the existence
OF the semi-oficial papers or correspond
ence. The prince concluded as follows:
"We live in state of most profound
peace; we have no wish for conquest ;
we are contented with what we possess;
we have no thought of threatening any
one. Nevertheless, these rumors are
continually arising" No action was
reached on the bill.

question is, however, do the facts in his
case constitute "high crimes and misde-
msanorsp within the meaning OF the
constitution? Do they constitute high
c. ines and misdemeanOrs In the light OF
English law? Do they constitute high
crimes and misdsmeanOTs in the light OF
any American precedent? Many OF the
most intelligent lawyers in both parties
express doubt in regard to THE. Promi-
nent and influential Republicans say
that this legislature ought not to i'm
peach Anes for its own sake; in other
words, that the Mississippi Democracy
dwell in glass house, and should not
throw stones. The legislature has in 1t,
however, some Of the ablest men in the
State, whose sense Of right and justice
will not be warped by party feeling.
Their legislation go far has been marked
by temperate and conservative tone
that was not expected by Republicans.
Most persons believe that when the sem
ate comes to sit as a court Of impeach-
ment, that Governor Ames will have a
full and impartial trial, and that an hon.
est and conscientious verdict will be re-
turned.

Latest from England, Russia and Aus

LONDON, February 9.-In his speech
iu the house Of commons last evening,
Disraeli made the following important
announcement: "BefoTe we agreed to
support the Austrian note it had been
intimated to US, in an uumistakRhle
manner, that it was the poTte's desire,
however much it objected to the note,
that England should not stand aloof."
The Russian telegraphic agency re-
ports that there is reason to believe that
the sultan, when he forwards his reply
to the Austrian note, will simultaneous
" grant an armistice to the insurgents.
A dispatch says that the European con-
suls at Moslar have received instruc-
tions to negotiate with the insurgents on
the basis Of Andrassy's proposals. The
porte is preparing circular to the powers
complaining OF the activity Of the in.
ternational revolutionary committee at
Ragusa. It is reported that the SerVian
ministers have declared their intention
to resign. The Istdk, the organ Of the
premier, says there is no doubt that the
skuptschins is resolved to go to war with
Turkey.
