TERRIBLE SHIPwRECK.-The steam
ship Metropolis left Philadelphia Friday
with 26O laborers for railroad in Brazil
Capt. -Ankers, was in command and the
cabin passeng gers were VIM. Ogden and his
wife, Miss Helen F. Snyder, who were &C
complies and the exposerss Of the Bliss
spiritualism frauds, Mrs. Flavin Hurst
and Mrs. M yers. The ship went ashore
Saturdayinear where the Huron was lost
three weeks ago on the North Carolina
shore and only ITO pers Es We're saved.
There was no aid from the shore and only
those escaped who were washed ashore by
the SURF The only female survivor was
Mrs. Hurst. Mrs Harrison was alive
when she was thrown upon the beach, but
died from exhaustion. Her husband Was
saved. Mr. Myers peished with his wife.
Mrs. Hurst gives very interesting &C.
count of her miraculous escape. She says
she begged her husband to save himself
and leave her to the mercy Of God, but he
would not desert her. They both chung to
the foremost until it was carried away,
and then they were at the mercy of the
terrible seas hat swept over the ships deck.
When the foremost fell there was about
fifty persons left on the wreck. Seeing
that all hope of remaining there was gone
MRS. Hurst seized her husbands hand and
babe him goodbye, and just as she uttered
a prayer to the Blessed Virgin the twain
were carried overheard. hand in hand.
Violent waves tore them apart, and both
were thrown insensible upon the beach.
Mr.. Hurst became conscious while being
borne toward fire that had been kindled
for the comfort of the survivors, and he
,ol, l,<,, ND on,
being led to group of bodies beheld his
wife almost naked and apparently dead.
Imagine his JOY when he found her alive
and reviving. She, however, did not be-
come conscious until eight hours had
elapsed.

The DEVIL QUOTING SCRIPTURE-In
the U. S. House of Representatives Sat
urday Mr.. Butler arose and asked consent
to present two memorials. There being no
objection, the gentleman from Massachu-
sets sent d memorial to the clerk s desk to
be read. 1t was from his constituents pro-
testing against the passage of the Bland
bill and the repeal of the resumption act-
and asking him to vote and work against
these measures. Mr.. Butler said he was
very sorry that he could not comply with
the request. He was sorry to differ from
his constituents but his own convictions as
to the right prompted him to support these
measures and he would do so. If he was
wrong he would regret it all his life. He
would support these measures more heart
lily because his constituents protesting
against them were laborng men and they
could not possibly be worse off with the
bills passed than without. He next sent
up memorial, from the Norfolk Confer
ence Of Unitarian churches held in Massa-
chusetts. IN memorial sets forth the in
Iqulty OF the two financial measures and
called on the Senators and Representatives
OF Mass chusetts to prevent if possible the
passage Of them. After the clerk had fin
lshed the reading of the memorial, MI.
Butler said: Mi. Speaker, will you please
send me the Bible On your desk ?2' A page
brought it to him. He rapidly turned over
its leaves, amidst a roar Of laughter and
found his place with surprising familiari-
ty. MarSlng passage in the second CHI p
ter Of st. John, he requested the clerk to
read it. The clerk did SO. 1t was the de-
scription Of the Savior going into the tenn
pie, a0d finding ti,sre the table IF the mon
ey changers with the money-changers car
rying on their trade, and how the Savior
drove them out. s'After that rebuke, Mr..
Speaker said MI. Butler, Il have nothing
more to say"

We were very much surprised to see our
staid and quiet loving friend the "Specta-
tor" standing up last Tuesday morning
with MI Vanlear's head in chancery and
giving it some vicious punches. We're
afraid there is no way for our worthy del
egate cut of the scrape. He did hold that
the people couldn't bear any more taxes,
and now he has bill for putting 10 cents
in the 500 more Cd them. Query. Is a
tax put ON by an Adjuster easier to bear
than one put on by anybody else?
But we want it understood that we are
or Mr.. VanIear's side in this matter. We
want the taxes raised whenever it is prop
or, and he is tile first man except Hanger
that has had the pluck to advocate it for
any purpose. But bless us. how they'll
welt him in Middle River for it, when he
gets home.

Ex-Gov. Young, Of Ohio, and Governor

Ex-Gov. Young, of Ohio, and Governor
General Dufferin, of Canada, happened to
meet at reception in the White House on
Monday evening. The Ex-Governor was
born on the estate of Earl Dufferin' s
father ia the north of Ireland. There is
OILY a difference Of two or three years be-
tween the ages Of the Earl and Mr. Young,
and a pleasant hour was passed together
by the two gentlemen in recalling remiui-
scenes OF their youthful days.
The colored population is getting credit
ably fast. Mr.. johnson Terrell, colored
gentleman, representing himself as Mis-
Sissippi planter, visited West Point. Va,
last week, and pretending to want to buy
land, borrowed from the coloied people
money, clothing, and one mans wife, The
runaway pair were caught in Caroline
county and carried back to King William,
where Mr.. Terrell received thiIty-nine
lashes, well laid on by the sheriff.
Judge Baxter says that the average
cost of the United States courts in East
Tennessee for the past three years has been
about $52, 0G0 per annum, while the cost
for the court for the southern district OF
OHIO last year was little less than S24,-
600. The territory OF the latter had pop
ulation of 100000; the population of the
eastern district of Tenness ee is about 400
600.
When ex-Postmaster General Jewell left

Men who make law are sometimes first
to evade law. By an Ohio statute, legisla
tors forfeit their pay il the legislature ad-
iourns for mere than two days. To get
around this enough members remain in
Columbus on Friday to move an adjourn

paws for six legislative days work week
and gets two.
Receiver Jewett, of the Erie railway,
anneared before justice in New York,
Sat rday, and gave bail IN $4,000 to an

Statements concerning the affairs of the

The last hope of the Louisiana Return
ing Board to escape the State prison has
vanished with the refusal of the notorious
Judge Bradley to intervene to get their
case into an U. S. Court. In the mean
time the prosecution in the Louisiana
State Court is producing crushing evil
dence of the guilt of Gen. Anderson the
collector of the tort of New Orleans who
is the member of the Board now on trial
1t is stated that the evidence will certain
ly implicate Secretary Sherman and Gen.
Garfield. in which case they will be as GER
tainly proceeded against. The penalty is
five years in the penltentiary. Anderson
and the two negro members of the Board
were the only ones who remained in New
Orleans, though J. Madison Wells has
since surrendered himself and been put in
jail.
