&3e0s SCQoUCA VA4 VSS OVAOAASAsSs
The Committee on Foreign relations
having intimated that no further evidence
would be received in the Emma Mine investi-
cation, and asked ex-Minister Schenck if he
would be satisfied with an acquittal from oil
blame, Gen. schenck replied that he desired
such investigation for others as well as him
self. foreground he took was this: that ne
was neither dupe nor rascal. he knew ne
was neither. but he invested his money in
the mine with view of lettering his condi-
ton. He made his investment with his eyes
open. He:wished to show not only this, but
that the mine is still an enormously valuable
property, and the failure was owing to mis-
management Of the company in England. He
did not want to appear as simple BOBBY,
takeni in by others, and therefore desired to
have the value of the mine fully established
These things had gone to the world on the
wings Of lightning, to his prejudice, connect
ing him with the alleged fraudulent purchase
and sale of the Emma mine.
The Sick Man in Turkey Getting no Better.
A Dispatch from St. Petersburg says:
"Despite the happy conclusion Of an armis-
tice, the general situation Of the Oriental
question has rather been aggravated. The
porte has relapsed into inactivity and leaves
the European cabinetsto work for peace with
out assisting them by the application Of re-
forms. On the other hand the revival Of
Mahommedan fanaticism is announced. Re-
cent accounts Of the massacre Of Christians
are confirmed The Christians are calling fol
reprisals, and 5000 insurgents have entered
the districts of Bihiace and Seravink. All
these incidents are more serious because they
occur at the beginning Of spring. The Time.
correspondent points out the special gravity
of the above statements, as the dispatches d
the Russian telegraph agency are always
strictly in keeping with the opinions Of tho
Russian governments. The tenor of this dis
patch seems to show that Europe will at las
know the immediate object of Russia's recent
proceedings.

fugitive lawyer was the custodian Of Miss Hal
pines estate, and by his dishonesty the pro-
perty thus intrusted, in amount about $4,000
is lost. After his recent departure for Europe,
it was found that the property had been ap-
propriated entirely by him. His method, in
general, has been to induce Miss Halpine to
sign assignments ignorantly, and then he
sold her property.

How Belknap Gagged the Army Officers.

How Belknap Gagged the Army Officers.
Gen. Gustav has shown up consider
able of the true inwardness OF the ex-secretary
Of war. The last exposition by the young
warrior clearly shows why he did not do it
sooner. When asked by the committee
Why was it you and other officers of the
army have not given information Of these
abuses on the frontier, Of which you have
testifed?" he answered, "Because of an order
dated March 18th, 1873, as follows: mo Of
hcer, active or retired; shall directly Or indi-
rectly, without being called upon by the
proper authority, solicit, suggest or recon-
mend action by members OF Congress. Com
munications by officers relative to subjects Of
military character will he forwarded through
the general Of the army and secretary Of war,
for their action and transmittal.'"

RE0RGAN1ZEn SAINTS.

r. At the recent annual cOnferene of
the Reorganized Church of Latter.Day
Saints. held at Plano, ILL.,, delegates
were present from Pittsburg, St. LOU
is, Council Bluffs and points in Mis-
souri,, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan In
diana, Ohio, West Virginia, New York
and Ontario.
This church is an offshoot from the
the Mormon church, and claims to
have except. the faith as taught by
Joseph Smith, the founder of the orig
inal Mormon doctrine. This branch of
1858, in little town in Wisconsin,
and they at that time adopted the title
which they now bear, viz. the Reor.
ganized Church of Latter-Day Saints.
The new society did not increase very
rapidly during the first decade of its
existence, having at the beginning of
1863 but little more than 300 hundred
members. Joseph Smith, son of the
prophet became the leader of the SO!
ciety about this time and during that
year semi-monthly paper was estab-
lished with the publication Office in
Chicago, the whole occupying room
l6 feet by 20 feet. This year their
standing is about as follows. They have
$50 distinct churches or organizations
with an aggregate membership of over
10000. These are scattered in almost
every state and territory in the union,
including tlourishing societies in the
Canadas, in England, Wales, Australia,
and even some of the remote islands.
Their missionaries are in almost every
country on. the face of the globe, and
all of them are supplied with books,
papers, periodicals, ETC., from their
publishing house here, which instead
of a room l6x2O and a hand press, &C.
cupies three floors in one of the largest
blocks in the city, which is fitted up
with steam power and modern cylinder
presses. The bible in use among them
is one said to be translated from the
original, through inspiration by the
''Prophet" Joseph. The first edition
was printed in 1867. but several edi-
tions have been printed since to supply
the growing need of the society.

National Colored Convention.

The national colored convention was
held in Nashville last week. The attendance
Of spectators was large, and speeches were
made by several prominent colored politicians.
Pinchback spoke but did not take the new
departure expected, but his speech had a
strong flavor ofindependence. He said the COL
ored people were beginning to think OF them
selves, and would never again vote for the
republican ticket in solid column as hereto
fore. He said the south could never prosper
while party lines were race lines. He wanted
no more color-line party, but a division Of
parties on other than race lines. Resolutions
were adopted endorsing and reafirming de-
voted adherence to the National Republican
party and its principles, and expressing graf
itude to President Grant and Senator Morton
for their acts in behalf of the colored race.

The senate committee on privileges and
slections are reported to be unanimously OPP
posed to the house bill prohibiting members,
senators and others officials from contributing
money for election purposes. The demo-
cratic senators are as much opposed to the
priociple involved as the Republicans, and

Sad Accident on the River Dee.
l. Another wholesale drowning took
place on the 9TH inst; this one on the river

warnings, was pulled by passengers into the
middle Of the stream, where it was swamped.

CH1LDREN's FEET.-Life-long discom-
fort, disease and sudden death often
come to children through the ina.ten-
ton or carelessness of the parents. A
child should never be allowed to go to
sleep with cold feet. The thing to be
last attended to is to see that the feet
are dry and warm; neglect of this has
often resulted in a dangerous attack Of
Group, diphtheria, Or fatal sore throat.
Always in coming from school, on enter
ing the house from visit or errand, in
rainy, muddy, or thawing weather, the
childs shoes should be removed, and
the mother herself should ascertain if
the stockings are the least damp, and if
so, they should be taken off, the feet
held before the fire and rubbed with the
hand till perfectly dry, and another pair
OF stockings put on, and the other shoes
and stockings be placed where they can
be well dried, so as to be ready for
future use at moments notice.

PRINTING OFFICE SECRETS. - The
Brunswick Telegraph says that prop
erly conducted printing Office is as much
a secret societo, as is Masonic Lodge.
The printers are not under an oath
of secrecy but always feel themselves
as truly in honor bound to keep secrets,
as though they had been put through
triple oaths. Any employee in a print
ing office who willingly disregards this
rule in regard to printing Office secrets,
would not only be scorned by the breth-
rem of the craft, but would lose his po-
sition in the office at once. We make
this statement, because it sometimes
happens that communication appears
in Il newspaper under an assumed sigma
ture which excites comment, and various
parties tries to find out who is the au-
thor. Let all be saved the trouble of
questioning the employees or attaches
of the printing office. They are ''know-
nothings" on such points as these. On
such matters they 'have eyes and ears.
but no mouth" and if they fail to OBJ
serve this rule, let them be put down as
dishonorable members Of the craft.

A correspondent of the Boston Adrer-
tiser gives this remarkable incident IN
his experience with lions. A lion rarely
attacks women, and l once witnessed
scene which will go further than the
longest explanation toward illustrating
this. It was hot sultry day IN July.
The sirocco made the atmosphere dense
with sand and glare; the very earth
seemed on fire. / was returning from
little expedition on the frontiers OF
Tunis, and as / had some matters to
settle with tribes in the environs of Ia
Guile, left my troops to return to Con-
stantine, and followed only by two
soahs, turned my steps toward Ia Gale.
having started just before day, we
arrived about four o'clock in the after
noon at the ford Of the little river de la
Nlafrag. Our horses, rs well as our
selves, were sadly in need of food and
drink, and we stopped to refresh our
selves at little inn kept by an Euro
pean, and situated on low mound two
or three hundred yards from the ford.
While waiting for my frugal repast 1
unbuckled my sword, laid by my pistols,
and, stretched out comfortably in the
shade, idly watched band of Arak

All at once l was startled by cries pro-
ceeding from the opposite side of sand
heap bordering the river, and half
dozen women came rushing into the
midst of their peaceable companions,
dragging them into the shallow water,
and behind them magnificent lion, his
tail proudly in the air, and his great
brown eyes looking carelessly from one
to the other. Paying no attention to
their retreat into the river, he followed
them there, rubbing himself up against
them, not seeming to mind in the least
their cries or terrified gesticulations,
and when he had had enough of it he
took long drink of the running water,
and, turning, majestically walked away
into the mountains from whence he had
come. This lion was a stranger in that
part of the country, and when on the
following day went out in search of
him. he had disappeared.

A hundred years ago, on the ODD of
June, 1775, the Continental Congress
put in circulation its first Issue (S2;0OO,-
0OO) of paper-money. These issues were
repeated from time to time till they
reached, in the aggregate, $500, 200, 900.
Their subsequent depreciation and
worthlessness, Notwithstanding law of
Congress making them leGal-tenders for
the payment of debts, are familiar facts
of history. In 1888, thirteen years sub
sequent to the first issue of paper-money
by Congress, Madison, in communica-
ton to the F'edeyaiist, says: "The
loss which America has sustained since
the peace, from the pestilent effects of
paper-money, on the necessary conf
dence between man and man, OH the
necessary confidence in public councils,
on the character of republican govern
ment, constitute an enormous debt
against the States chargeable with this
unadvised measure, which must long
remain unsatisfied, or rather an accumu-
lation of guilt which can be expiated no
otherwise than by voluntary sacrifice
on the altar of justice of the power which
has been the instrument Of it,"

The character OF a gentleman is a re-
lative term, which can hardly subsist
where there a:e no marked distinction
of persons. The diffusion Of knowledge,
of artificial and intellectual quality,
tends to level this distinction, and to
confound that nice perception and high
sense of honor which arises from con-
spicuousness of situation and perpetual
attention to personal propriety and the
claims to personal respect.
