VINO ~ FRAycGs MURPHY ?-Hear.
ing and reading so much about Muir
phy and his work, the question uaiur-
ally arises in every ones mind, "Who
is Murphy ?" The question is answer.
en- by an exchange as follows "Seven
years ago Francis Murphy, an Irish
man, was a keeper of low grog shop
in Portland, Me. In drunken fgbt
with one of his companions, Murphy
kicked his antagonist down stairs and
the fell killed The man. Murphy was
arrested and thrown into prison, and
to this day, he bears the scars on his
limbs inflicted by the heavy chains
with which he was bound. BY the in
tervention of powerful friends, who
saw that underneath rough eX;eri
or Murphy bore a warm heart, and
were familisr With some acts Of chari-
ty lie had done, he was at length re
leased from Jail. During his impris-
oument he was converted, and through
his lebors twenty seven other persous
were brought into church. Murphy
then entered the temperance cause,
heart and soul On fire with its impor>
tance, and has since been an active
worker"
FINANCIAL FACTs.-Attention has
been called to the fact by those theor-
isis who think We are ruined by hav
ing the balance of trade in our favor,
that Great Britain exports less than
she imports by hundred mil ions or
more, while we export that much
more than we import ; yet Great Brit
ain, they say, is prosperous and rich,
while We are poor and commercially
depressed. 1t does not follow, how
ever, that these things stand to each
other in the relation of cause and eff
feet, for remaining fact is excluded
from the calculation, which material
ly changes the state of the case. Great
Britain, it must be remembered, is a
lending nation, and her annual re-
ceipts of interest on her loans more
than make up for the differences be
tween exports and imports while the
United States is a borrowing nation,
and pays more interest on her debt
held abroad than the aggregate of the
balance of t,ade in our favor. Take
that factor into the account, and the
problem becomes much palmer.

f}c" Wha he said was we'll enough bu! Il
jeit the il, ar.r IN doubt as TO whether the
snake was going North or eomiog South.
Philips Of Kansas, in the House, aud
Wright, of Iowa, in the Senate. both radicals,
10 speeches yesterday, took the ground that
HAYES had been elected, aoi should be counted
10 by the presiding officer of the Senate. Sher'
man admitted that the two Houses had the
right to reject the vote OF State, but denied
that either House separately could throw out
vote
The Presidential mudd|e is no nearer so'u-
ton, and grave spprehenslous are again ez-
pressed that trouble may ensue.
Gov. Grover, Of Oregon, sat in the oeoate
Yesterday and listened at,entiVely to severe
denunciation of himself by Mr. Wright
Wright's term expires on the 4th OF next
March, and Grover comes 10 on that day,
which, in somo measure, explains tue COM
plaisaucy with which the latter took the oastl
CATION, and has failed to resent the accusation
that he ''was not fl associate Tor gentlemen.
The refusal or the part of the radicals, 10 the
House, yesterday, to allow 90 enquiry into the
cause Of the concentration OF troops at the Capt.
tai, is the occasion of some comment, and Is
considered an indication of their further pur.
pose to sustain the President in bis "loIoo
policy. = w
1t is stated here, BY persons from the West
that the feeling out there in reference TO the
Presidential contest is iutensifying. and that
there is . regular war feeling sprlnglng up 10

out OF his election. An old gentleman from
Kansas, who fought through the last war Oh
the side of the Unioo, says he has twelve
months supplies at home, and Is willing TO
