GIN. GRANT being out of a sit"
just now, the great North American
nominators are at work looking up
something for him to do. Since he is
out of the presidential boom business,
he has been suggested as United States
senator from Illinois, Logan WIS
elected president of the Darien canal
company, and minister to England.
His name is still open for further nom
nations. He cannot prevent the use
of it, however much he may ~deprechte
the vandalism.

Coin Testing Machine.

Apparently infinite are the uses of
electricity. The London bankers are
now using an electrical machine for
the detection of bad or light gold coins.
A stream of coin is gently shaken down
a brass slide and one by one they fall
upon a testing bar so delicately adjust
ed that a slight deficiency will set an
apparatus in motion which jerks the
bad coins out at u side escape hole,
while the good ones pass into another
receptacle, The invention saves a good
deal of time, and is correct to the
minntest point, and the royalty of
5000 a year which the inventor gets on
every machine is not considered exorb-
liant.

YELLOW FEVER is no ~respecter of
persons. So far the wealthy class seems
to have suffered quite as much as the
poorer class. This seems strange, for
this reason: Yellow fever is generally
supposed to prevail only in localities
where the sanitary condition Is faulty,
and in households where cleanliness is
not the rule. But the wealthy people
of Memphis do not live In filthy locali-
ties, nor are their dwellings permeated
with the fumes Of filth. Yet they are
afflicted with the terrible scourge Just
like the plebeians. Again may we sug-
gest that the first principles of yellow
fever are not understood by the scien-
tihc medical men Of the country, and
they should bend every effort to mas
tering its mysteries that they may
either prevent the frequent appearance
to the plague or cure its victims.

JIM KEENE having made u cool mil
lion of dollars, according to reports, in
his first wheat speculation, he may re-
tire from the cornering business with
self-satisied success. Possibly the
fact of succeeding 50 nicely may cause
him to again enter the market as n
buyer. And IL is more than likely that
the announcement Of his retirement
from the wheat business, is a shrewd
device to cover the future operations of
his brokers in buying up the staple, and
storing II away.

Our Georgia correspondent says
elsewhere in this issue that JEFF Davis
new book will create a stir in civil cir
Giles, much the same as Gen. Sherman's
memoirs did in military circles. JEFF

Alex. Stephens, and will cauterize him
reientlessly. Other civil and military
ch~ieftains of the lost cause will be
handled on pen points. Speed the

a Steer Chhr&" lpon Fort
A steer, one of 4 lot Of 1870 head of
southwestern Virginia beef cattle which
were going on board the Spanish steam
ship Guillermo, for Liverpool, Mt the
lower Locust Point pier yesterday,
jumped overheard and landed-in Fort
McHenry, where he made things lively.
Having left the a on the pier, with
other steers, he went up the gangway

He did not stop there, however, but
leaped over the rail into the water. He

his feet he became warlike at once and

some minutes he held the fort. He
