THE Washington correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Commercial estimates that the
census Of next year will show an increased
population Of 8 ,5eo, 600, necessitating, under
the present superintendent, an increase Of
sixty-six in the House of Representatives,
making that body the unweildy number of
80. The Electoral vote will be increased
TO ass. New York would gain five Con-
gressmen, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michi-
gan. Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas
and Wisconsin, four each. The estimates
show NO increase in the population Of Col
orado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida,
Louisiana, Maine, Nevada, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont and South Carolina.

rmE PENSION Jon AND ITS cosr.

The passage Of the .Arrearages Of Pen
siops Act, which was improper in itself,
md done in the interest Of political dema-
gpguss, has naturally brought in its train
. greet Number OF difficulties and embar-
yassmeBts, some Of which threaten to in
voSve serious consequences. The money
must be raised, but q the House is un-
willing or afraid to increase taxation or to
authorize the issue Of more bonds, the
sttempt 10 made to force the Secretary Of
tho Treasury to supply the funds imme-
diately required, $26, SOC, 900, out Of the
accumulated reserve held in the treasury
vaults to insure resumption. The effect
Of this will be to cause an imitation OF the
currency, and at the same time to impair
70 some extent the public confidence in the
stability Of specie payments. Another
difficulty has arisen out of the defects Of
the law itself and its absurdities, which
epen the way to fraud. Secretary Schurz
Les already written to Congress on the
subject, calling attention to the need of
amendments to the statutes on the PEN
sions, and noting the fact that since the
new law was passed the demand for blanks
has doubled. In the Senate recently, in the
course of the debate on the internal rev.
Island, told some startling facts in connec-
ton with the effects Of the Arrearages Act
upon the revenue. He said: "We have
passed . bill for arrears Of pensions which
will take from the treasury, at the lowest
estimate, $40, 600. 900, and at the highest,
and I think the juster estimate, $3.50, O0O,-
900. The applications under this law, to
employ the words Of q late COMMISSIONS
Of Agriculture to my friend on the right,
when he was Chairman Of the House Com
mittee on Appropriations, have exceeded
the most sanguine expectations Of the de-
partment. Not only are these applications
from men who had been receiving the
regular pension from the time of their
original application, but men who have
never applied for the moderate allowance
made by former laws find the accumulated
arrears . sufficient object. in these hard
times, to make application. The number
Ct this class received at the Pension Office
Last week exceeded fifteen hundred. One
Of the first applications was for arrears Of
$4,000, and they run by thousands into
$1,000" One thousand applications in a
week for arrears Of 81, 200 each. implies
81, 900, 900 . week. and these are all new
pensions, too.

EXECUTION IN VIRGINIA.-John Dean was exc
cuted at Estellville, Va, yesterday for the muir
der OF Harry Fugate, In this county, on the 25th
OF June 1871. The evidence upon which Dean
was convicted was almost wholly circumStan-
tiaI. The murdered man was shot on the day In
question whilst engaged in blowing his field By
some unseen Zoe who rested his gun on the fence
self and his victim. One Witness who testified
to having seen the prisoner about the time Of
the murder at work In his tleld admitted, upon
being closely pressed that he had perjdred him.
self, and that he had been promised pecuniify
consideration by one OF the counsel OF the ac-
cuSed for making this statement. The murdered
man had prosecuted the accused for perjury sew
eral weeks prior to the commission of the crime
for which he was convicted. and this was sup
posed to have been the motive OF murder. After
Dean mounted the Scaffold the sheriff discovered
that he had no rope with which to bind the priS-
onerS hands, and some delay was occasloned by
this negligence. The condemned man denied his
guilt.

The food-disaster at Szegedin, il,
Hungary, though it will not be so last
ing in its effects, is scarcely less ap-
palling than a great fire. Any catas-
trophe by which $4,000 people are
rendered homeless even temporarily is
horrible enough to arrest the attention
of the whole world, and to call for such
aid as may be necessary to relieve their
Immediate suffering and assist the vic
TINS in regaining self-sustaining con-
dition.
It is not possible at this early day to
estimate the loss nor the suffering of
this Hungarian community. The peo-
pie of the town had warming of what
was to come by the breaking of two
embankments and the probability
that the third, largest, and last pro-
lection would give way before the
food. Thousands of men had been at
work for several days in the effort to
save the embankment, but it gave way
during the night, and hence the flood
must have taken large part of the
population by surprise. The terrors of
rushing waters have been graphically
described by Charles Reade in one of
his novels, and American readers have
closer recoIections of such impressions
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1879-03-20

as may be communicated by descrip-
tons OF the breaking dams in New En-
gland three or four years ago. It would
probably be difficult to exaggerate the
horrors Of such scene as he's been
enacted at Szegedin, for water may be
more terrible and relentless than fire
when it comes in torrent that no
human hand can stay, and too swift and
overwhelming to permit of escape.
Hundreds of houses must have gone
down in that night of terror, and hun
dreds of men, women, and children
must have met sudden and frightful
death.-Chicago Tribune.

Our Enormous Losses by Fire.

The loss caused by fire still continues
to be enormous in this country, the
figures reaching total which must SUR
prise many people. During last year
this loss amounted to $64,315,900 of
which the insurance covered 1876, 575, 900.
For the four years from 1875 to 1878,
inclusive, the total loss was 1915, 314,5
of which the insurance companies bore
$147,674,7O0. The greatest destruction
by fire of course occurred in this State,
the leading one in population and in
the number of it's buildings. The loss
last year was over $9,OO0,OOO, Pennsyl-
vania coming next with over $6,0OO,-
600, then Massachusetts with about
$5,5O0,0O0, Ohio So, 25O, 900, and Illinois
about 100000. l
Of the establishments which are
classed by the insurance companies as
extra hazardous ON account of their
special liability to fire, due to the ma
ture of the business carried on in them
or to their construction of infammable
materials, the total number burned in
1878 was 1929, valued at So, 557 200,
and insured for $23,970,990. Thus,
though these specials, so called in in
surance parlance, were numerically very
small minority of the whole number of
risks, the loss by them footed up to
about two-thirds of the total losses of
the year. '.H -
The establishments of this character
of which the largest number were
burned in 1878 were the following; and
the table is instructive as showing the
sort of buildings most liable to fire:

under, and of the strange places from
which the family silver and other ar
ticles of value were unearthed after her
sudden death.
So Adrienne and / found ourselves
rich people. The jewels realized far
more than / had imagined they would !;
and, by buying more ground, on the
spot of the old house I built such q
home as Adrienne was fitted to adorn.
Then came a telegram to my wife,
telling of fat her father had received,
and that his life was in danger. We
found him sadly changed from his for
mer self, and when, in feeble voice,
he called @Adrienne! and held out his
weak arms to my wife, all my anger van
ished.
We did not tell him of the difference
in our fortunes, but, after he had sufi-
GENTLY recovered, we brought him by
slow stages to our home, which Adri-
enne had named "Ingleside." Then he
was told the wonderful story of the
treasure trove we had found through
little Adde'S desire and attempt to kiss
'the pity lady" The old man held out
his hand to me.
Herbert, I am almost sorry for this.
I had thought to prove my changed
feelings by sharing with you the wealth,
which has only been a burden to me
since, in my pride, I refused to listen to
my daughters request for forgiveness.
"Say no more. SIR" replied. "Let
bygones be bygones- for you
would never have had my wife, my dea,
Adrienne-"
"Nor little Addie, papa" cried sweet
small voice, whose owner had come I'M
noticed to my side, and overheard my
words.
Looking around me, I sometimes sigl
as the memory Of old Aunt Susan comes
back to me; of how she pinched and
struggled to live within her small mean,
and keep her little home, while all thu
time the legacy which had been left he
by her grandmother, and which would
have made her beyond want, was, al
unknown to her, within her very reach
