Figures 10 Think Over.

According to a French statistician
taking the mean of many accounts, a
man of fifty years of age has slept
5000 days, work, d $500 days, walked
800 days, amused himself 1000 days,
was eating 1900, was sick 500 days,
etc. He has eaten 1900 pounds OF
meat, 1900 pounds af vegetables, eggs
and fish, and drank 1000 gallons of
liquid, viz: water, coffee. tea, beer,
wine, ETC., altogether. This would
make respectable lake Of 800 squire
feet surface and three feet deep, on
which small steamboats, could navi-
gate. And all this makes up the rou'
tine Of an average mans life.

STEAM cN CITY RAILWAYS. The
Pennsylvania Senate has passed a bill
authoaizing the use of steam motal s
Tor street passenger cars, which the
Philadelphia Times calls upon the
House 10 approve. 1tis believed that
practically noiseless engines have heen
so perfected rs to remove all well
founded objections to their use as a
substitute ter horses. The Times
urges that the introduction of steam
on the streets of that city would be the
introduction of cheap transportation.
fo- the actual average cost OF handl pg
the passengers OF the Philadelphia city
railways with steam substituted for
horses would hardly exceed three
cents per head, ard the profit on ave

The India n
" ar.


New York. August I. A letter from the camp
at the mouth of the Rosebud river dated August
d, says that Colonel Otis with $50 men, arrived
there on the steamer Carroll, having had skrm-
ism with the Indians ON the bank of the river on
the way up
General Terry hopes to make forward move
ment on the 10Th inst. if General Miles arrives
before then with the 9TH cavalry and needed sup
plies.
Gen. Teny's command consists, at the present
time, of the following troops: -Four companies
of the I'd cavalry; tine 1th cavalry, minus the five
companies annihaed; six companies of the 9TH
infantry six companies of the 22d infantry; five
Ga ling guns; one Napoleon gum and about 100
Arickasee and Crow scouts have reached Terry
from General Crook.
The steamer Far West has been sent down to
the Powder river to bring up the supplies found
there by some of Colonel Ots's command, which
the Indians were appropriating.
From all indications the Indians concentrat-
ing from all sides for big fight and they are es-
timated at from 5000 to 5000 men.
Captain Thompson of the I'd cavalry committed
suicide just before the troops left Big Horn river
He was native of Pennsylvania, but was appoint
ed from Maine.
The Indian commissioner has removed agents al
Red Cloud aud Spotted Tail agencies for incom-
potency, and the agencies have been turned over
10 the war department. All agents on the Sioux
reservation have been directed to assist military
authorities in arresting the Sioux warriors who
participated in the fight with Custer, as they re
turn to the agencies. These men are placed il
the hands of the military, as prisoners of war.

Proctor knOtt's ExOnOra,iOn.

Washington, August I. The judiciary commit
tee, to-day, took up the report exonoratng Knott
III relation to the suppression of the Caldwell dis
patch. After discussion the report was adopted,
all the democrats voting in favor of it, and repub-
hcans against it. Mr. Frye of the minority was
allowed to submit minority report or prepare a
resolution a substitute but the republicans con-
cluded not to do either, and the original report
to be submitted to the House.
Congressman Lamar Overcome by Heat.
About one o'clock this p. M, Congressman
Lamar was overcome by excessive heat, causing
vertigo and he was assisted to the speakers room.
He fully recovered in few minutes and re-
turned to the hall of the House.
BlufOrd Wilson'S Testimony,
Bluford Wilson to-day said he did not know of
his own knowledge that the President was angry
at the publication of the publication of the en-
dorsement Let no guilty man escape, if it can be
avoided, etc. lie did remember saying to Var
yam, that importantly was required to procure
such endorsement. He then repeated his previous
belief that after the Sylph telegram was discov-
cred duplicating Babcock, the President changed
his mind about the whiskey prosecution.
MIR. Wilson was crossexamined for several
hours, his testimony being elaboration and ex-
planation of that formerly given by him. In reply
TO question he SAID that 1t was mistake to sup
pose that those TO whom it was promised escaped
punishment. In his opinion they were severely
punished by the ignomny of the confession OF
their guilt and the loss Of property, because the
loss of property to some persons is more severe
then the loss of liberty. As to criminal punish
meut he could say nothing.
Confirmed.
Tie Senate to-day confirmed III. F. French OF
Massachusetts as assistant secretary Of he Trt as
uiy, vice Burnap,, resigned.
