this talk was, he said, to misrepresent US
abroad; and the Democratic party stood
indicted and he hereby charged them
with the public SANDER of their country,
in creating an impression to the civil
lied world that we are under military
despotism.
But, continued Mr.. Blaine, the real
motive of the Democrats must be looked
for elsewhere. 1t is simply to get rid OF
Federal supervision at elections-to get
rid of the civil power Of the United
States in the election Of representatives
to congress, and therefore this bill con-
meets itself directly with the bill which
was before congress last session known
So the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill. He was aware that
parliamentary rules forbade MIN to dis
cuss bill pending before the house of
representatives, but he knew, also, that
nothing forbade him to speak of what
was not done in the house, but in Demo.
cratic caucus, where this legislation was
performed.
Mr.. Blaine discussed the legal ques.
tions involved, and continuing said:
The design now is to get rid of all civil
officers Of the United States under pre-
tence of keeping troops away from the
polls, and the amendments which will
be offered will test the sincerity Of the
Democratic side on that point and show
the federal government would !
be allowed representation at all except
by two men Of straw, without any
power. who can merely lookon. He would

through in lis present form the remain:
der of the law, in regard to marshals and
would be worth nothing,
since there would be- no power vested in
the federal government to enforce its
provisions. We are told, said MIR.
Blaine, and it is rather novel thing,
that if we do not agree to the bills as
offered, we are not to have an sppropri-
alton. That haa been announced in
both branches Of congress, be supposed

A Mysterious Expenditure.

A Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune says that informa-
tian believed to be trustworthy has
been received here which indicates
that the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
Railroad Company has not yet profted
by the extravagant expenditures Of the
famous Patterson investigating Com
mittee for transportation. 1t will be
remembered that one of the items of ex.
penditure of the Patterson Committee
was 50, ,0Gl for transportation. Mr.. G.
A. Reynolds, who figured as an attache
of the committee while it was
engaged in its Indian Territory
jaunt, now says that the treasurer
of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Rail-
road, who sig.ed the vouchers on
which the sum mentioned was paid de
clares, that he never received one cent
Of the money. The money was paid
out by the disbursing officer OF the Sen
ate OH a voucher signed by Mr.. Jaynes,
treasurer of the railroad, and approved
by Senator Patterson, chairman of the
committee. Mr.. Jaynes is reported as
saying that he paid about ~, 600 of the
amount charged for the sleeping cars,
provisions, wines, etc, used by Senator
Patterson and his friends, and that he
would be very glad to get the money
back. An explanation of this matter
by Mr.. Patterson and the officers of his
committee would appear to be neces-
sary.

what Makes Wealth !:

The Rev. r. D. Hitchcock says: "Sup-
pose no muscle is put into the land; no
sweat moistens it; it goes back into its
original wildness, and that which form
ly supported one hundred civilized
men, affords support for one savage.
The value which land possess has been
developed by labor. Have you consid-
cred how short-lived value is Crops
last no more than year. Railways,
so soon as you stop work upon them

valuable. Houses have 70 be made over
constantly. St. Petor's church, at
Rome, one OF the most solid of struc-
lures, is repaired annually at cost of
$50, 900. A great part OF the wealth Of
OF tho world is only twelve months old;
when men stop working it passes away.
Suppose you earn SLIPS a day and
spend the same; at the end of the year
you are no better OF than at the begin
ing. You have only lived. Suppose
you spend d, or better yet, S5 cents;
then you become a capitalist. Capital
is wages saved. and every man can be-
como a capitalist. begun to preach

and has been since, to. live within my

capital and your capital will be as good
as that Of Peter Cooper or any other

A CoIOred Man Kills His White
VIE 10 Avoid Prosecution.

The sending of Edmund Kinney (col-
ored) and Mary Hall (white) to the
Richmond Penitsntiary for five years,
for marrying in violation Of the stat
utes OF Virginia, has caused great alarm
to such mixed couples, many of whom
have lived undisturbed for years. In
case which has just come to light it
appears that colored man killed his
white wife to avoid trial. 1t seems
that r. T. Coleman, of Cumberland, a
well to. do colored man, was married
many years ago to white woman.-
She died, and just on year ago, in the
District Of Columbia, he married
another white woman. Having re-
turned to Cumberland, they were in,
dicted. They were to have been tried
on Monday last. On Sunday she died,
eviucing all the symptoms Of narcotic
poisoning. On Wednesday her body
was disinterred, and the stomach re-
moved. There is little doubt that she
was poisoned. The husband, however,
has not yet been arrested. The law
making the intermarriage Of the races
felony was passed cnly about year
ago. The mixed couples married pre-
viously can only be prosecuted for un.
lawful coha abitation, it is said.

SmaiIuess or the World.

DR.. Mosely, after three years and a
half spent in voyage of scientific ex-
ploration around the world, says the
voyage left a deep impression of the
smallness OF the earth's surface. We
live in the depths of the sea. Like
those, we can crawl up into the shall
lows, or mount at peril in balloon; but
the utmost extent of our vertical
range is no greater than We can walk
horizontally on the earth's surface in a
couple of hours. Ifthere were land all
along the equator it would be possible
to run around the world in train in
less than three weeks. A walk of four
miles day would bring a man from
Behriag Strait to Cape Horn in about
seven years. The earth as compo-
nent part of the universe may be COM
pared to small isolated island Oh its
own surface. As, in the course of az ,
such an island develops its own pecu-
liar insular fauna and fGra, so proba-
bly, on the surface of the earth alone
has development Of nitrogen occurred
in manner to produce the various
forms of animal and vegetable life.

The Greenback Democratic Call.
tl0U.

Senator Mcdonald, OF Indiana,
states that he is in favor Of the Demo.
Gratis and Grsenbackers in Ohiouniting.
He considers that the campaign in Ohio
this year will be fought on the issues
which have been before Congress, State
control Of elections without military in
reference, and a bi-metallic basis for
the paper currency, of the country
The Warner silver bill hs pronosnces
the embodiment Of the views of the
democratic party on the subject of the
currency, and he predicts that it will DO
made party measure in that body.
If the Ohio Democrats and Greenbackers
combine on the above issues, he pre-
diets they will sweep the State. Sew.
eral of the Greenback members of the
House, including Messrs. Murch, OF
Maine; Russell, of N. Carolina; Ford,
Of Missouri, and others do not concur
with Senator Mcdonald in the hope
that the two parties will coaesce. These
gentlemen express themselves very de.
cidedly against any further combina-
tions with the democrats. They say
the national greenback party is strong
enough, and should make unequivocal
platforms, and unequivocal straightout
nominations. This they consider is
the surest road to success, and they
contend that myriads of voters from
both the republican and democratic
parties with flock 70 their standard.

A Montreal Outrage.

A man, named Quenville, watchman
at Morey's livery stable in Montreal, ,
was assaulted and knocked senseless
with an iron instrument on Friday
night, and the building, which con-
tained new carriage valued at $40, 900.
was then set on fire. The fire was dis
covered in time to prevent the destruc-
tion of the premises, and the damage
will not exceed $15;000. Quenville
died of his wounds on Saturday. The

Morey, whois extensively employed by
the hotel keepers, and they are susp.c-
ted of being the authors of the crime.

THE NORTH TO THE SOUTH.

BY gentle breezes BONE afar along our South
Were tones e. :, ,of manhood's deep despair, and

From Miss!ssippis valley came the sound ol

And whispers OF the dying in vibrations faint

The Empire State heard it on all her hills and

The cry came up with ocean on New Eng.

And our lar Western pralries echoed 1t o'er

brotherhood, :,
And reverse the golden maxim "for evil to do

Though your deeds have been as scarlet, they

Ye have with united voices thanked us deep.

Not by words OF Kindness spoken, will your

went to work to investigate. They
piled their axes aud by dint OF
hard labor split the tree, when to
their establishment the obstacles
which the saw had struck proved TO
be bones. Then they opened the
tree rs far as they could find bones,
some 81 feet, and the remains
proved to he those OF the monstrous
reptile SO often seen but never cap
turcd. The ribs measured SIX
inches in diameter and from that
tapcred down to smaller sizes. The
tail of the snake was found I'M,
hcdded in the upper part OF the

in backward. 1t is believed that
the last time he was chased, some
