Such canal has long been great necessity
to the commercial world, but although this
government has for many years held grants
to encourage IFS instruction, nothing re-
sides surveying routes has been accom-
plished. If England will undertake the COM
pletion of the work which the United States
as thus far neglected. we see no reason for
interfering with her plans, for the canal
would he proportionally as great benefit to
this country as to Great Britain.

The Collector of the Port Charged With
That He Viii Le IL. nnored From Office.
New York Times.
For week or two past certain circles of
Buffalo society have been good deal
agitated over a scandal in high life which
| has not hitherto been mentioned in the local
press, but which cannot much longer be kept
| from the public, since it has been brought
to the attention of the authorities at Wash
| ington, and is likely to result in change
in the office of collector of customs
at this port. The following are the facts
A young daughter of an old resident and
well-known business man of this city, resid-
ing GA Delaware street, was lately discovered
| to be- in an abnormal condition for an I'M
married lady, and, on being called to account
by her parents, charged Mr.. John Tyler, the
collector of Buffalo, with being the author
of her ruin. Mr.. Tyler is a married mal4i
somewhat famous for his gallantry, and was
retired officer of the regular army on half
pay when he was appointed collector under
Gen. Grants administration. He lost an
arm in the war of the rebellion, and has been
satisfactory and rather popular collector.
! When confronted with this charge he put in
general denial to the ears of his friends
| and miscellaneous inquirers, but is said to
have owned up TO the strong pressure of the
girls father, and admitted the truth of the
accusation. However that they may be, the
| facts were communicated to Presiden /
! Hayes by some friend of the family, said to
be 5. S. Guthrie, an old acquaintance of the
| President, formerly of Ohio, but now a resi-
dent OF Buffalo, aud an agent of the treasury
department. was forthwith sent here to in-
vestigate them. Heis reported to have con-
vlnced himself of the r truth, and to have
immediately rising to explain Tyler
explanation or denial, and the story of both
sides will then be reported to Washington
The girls statement is generally credited
here by those who have become cognizant of
the scandal, and it is believed that Mr.. Tyler
will be soon removed and a new collector APP
pointed in his place. This has enlisted the
interest of politicians in the scandal, aud
speculation IS now rife as to who will be
Iyler's successor. Some of the friends of
Tyler sheer at the idea of his removal on
such charge, and say that if Preside1c
Hayes undertakes to remove all the govern
ment employees whose morals do not coma
up to the Sunday school standard, he will re-
quire an additional clerical force to make out
commissions for the new appointees There
are said to be, however, some aggravating
circumstances connected with the charge
against the Buffalo collector. The girl Is
motherless, and has been considered rata, r
weak minded. she is now at a living in re-
treat near New York.

ONE cause of the alarming increase OF.
with which pardons are procured. Statistics
just compiled show that within the past
twenty years one hundred and sixty-two
murderers have received executive pardon
more than one-half of the entire number
convicted. The best preventive of murder
would appear to be the rigid enforcement of
the law and the abolition of the pardoning
power of the governor in the case of capital
crimes

The Apostle Paul exnorts US to ''be tenn

apparently does not regard temperance in
language as enjoined. In recent issue OF
that journal he employs the following rather
vigorous language:
Rather than to undertake to establish q
throne. it would be better for man to go to
sea in a stone boat, with iron oars and leaden
sails, with the wrath of God for breeze and
hell for the nearest port.

ANOTHER cause for dissatisfaction with
Hayes has been developed. 1t appears that
he wants to run the whole government ma
chine himself. Instead of allowing the
heads of departments to make appointments
of subordinates, as has been the custom
heretofore, he makes them himself, and the
aforesaid heads of departments are exceed
ing VIZ tn in consequence.

A HEADLEss HORROR.
The Mutilated Body Of a Girl Found on
the Ricrg Rank.
Missouri Republican. I

the KiCrr Bank.
missouri Republican,
Lowell has frst-class horror. Yesterday
afternoon the frightfully mutilated body of
white woman or girl was found on the
river bank, at the foot of O'Fallon avenue, q
couple of hundred yards east of where the
Hanson bone yard was. The spot is one
seldom visited by any one, and body might
lie there month without being discovered.
This one had evidently been there for several
days-possibly q week, as it was
very much decomposed. It was naked.
and there is no probability that
it will ever be identified, for the head was
missing. Deceased was, according to the
Judgment of several who saw the remains q
young girl, but even this could not be posi-
lively determined. The trunk and limbs were
intact. save that q terrible slash, evidently
made with razor Or very sharp knife had
opened the abdomen all the way across
just where the neck joined the head another
slash on tue right side bad made very deep
cut, running upward toward the front, so az
to cut off some feshy part of the chin. This
was evident from the smooth edge on the
flesh there. The balance of the neck was
all ragged, and seemed to indicate that the
head had been torn off, or eaten off by hogs,
after the deep cut had been made on the
neck. There were no other evidences Of
violence. If it be true that the head was torn
by hogs, there should be skull remaining,
but there is none. TIE body is not
the refuse of adissecting .room, and there is
no room for any other supposltion than that
most atrocious murder has been commit
ted, the head and clothes being removed to
prevent Identification. No female is missing
IN that part of town, and the probability is
that
THE MURDERED GIRL
was taken from the city up there, or was
caught in that neighborhood, outraged aud
murdered. The police are at loss for some
clue to work upon, and the worse reflection
is, that the impossibility Of Identification
carries with it the inposslbility of convic-
ton even should the right party be caught.
1t is SIMPLY sickening mystery, and the
exhibition of the frighttul remains at the
lnorgue can do nothing to solve it.
