Rise Early and Observe.

If you will rise early you will observe
that Mercury is beaming in the constel-
lation of Pisces-but rise an hour and
half earlier, and behold Jupiter, the
bright morning star, in this month of
May, in all its glory; quarter past
two O'Clock is the most brilliant hour.
Saturn is also morning planet, but it
is so near the sun that his light is
dimmed so as to be barely visible.
Mars is near Jupiter, only one-half de-
gree north of it, ruddy and apparently
flamming-beautiful spectacle. Nep-
tuue rises after daylight, goes down be-
fore sunset, and only telescopes can
find him. Venus is the most brilliant
object in the evening sky. Brorsen's
comet reached its nearest point to the
earth last Saturday, and is consequent
ly now in its grandest brightness. 1t
is seen among the stars at the head of
the Bear.

Again After Sammy.

New York, May 26.-To-day, in the
clerks Office of the circuit court, the
United States district attorney filed his
bill of discovery in the case of the
United States against Samuel J. Tilden,
to recover for alleged deficiencies in his
income tax. When the case was on the
calendar for trial several months ago,
the counsel for Tilden answered that
he was ready, and the-district attorney
asked leave to file bill of discovery
on the ground that much of the testi.
mony taken before the commission out
west was liable to objection, and that
the bill of discovery would very much
facilitate matters and make an early
trial possible.

Donald spoke at length. He said the
control of the southern states was pass

they assumed the power of interfering
in election for their own advantage.
AT the conclusion of McDonald's adj
dress Edmunds said he intended to
speak on the subject when it again
came up.
The president pro TEN. announced his
signature to the legislative appropria-

Money Matters Abroad.

New York, May ga large delega-

ex-senator La Thammethion, are in

said: "Since the adjournment Of the
conference last fall, at which all the
European countries except Spain and
Germany were fully represented, he has
met numerous gentlemen who took
part in it, and other representative men
of France, England, Holland, Belgium,
Italy and other countries, and inform
ally discussed monetary matters with
them. He says those countries which
have demonetized silver are beginning to

SENATE.

Washington, Nay 26.-The bill re-
ported by Mr.. Bayard to provide for an
exchange of subsidiary coins for lawful
money, and making such coins legal
tender in sums not exceeding twenty
dollars, was taken up.
Mr.. Edmunds spoke against the bill.
When Mr.. Edmunds concluded, con-
sideration began of the bill hereto
fore introduced by Mr.. Mcdonald,
authorizing the employment of the
militia and land and naval forces in
certain cases, and to repeal the election
laws.
Mr.. Mcdonald claimed that the re-
spective states have absolutely the right
to prescribe the machinery for conduct
ing elections. No power for this pur-
pose was ever delegated to the general
government. and it was never exercised
until of late years, under authority of
law, through the agency of supervisors.
The debates in the convention that
adopted the constitution support the
position he had taken; nor was the
principle departed from until 1870,
when the false plea of security and
freedom and fairness at elections was
urged rs an excuse for the enactment
of the election law.

that Goldsoll is indebted to the bank

President Hayes Exodus Visws.
Washington, May 26.-The president
is reported as having expressed his
views regarding the negro exodus from
the south, as follows: Judging from
the reports of officers and agents as well
as from other good sources of informa-
tion, he thought the exodus was des-
tined to become general, especially from
those portions of the south where the
greatest amount of persecution was
inflicted on the negro; that there would
be no need of funds to help emigants
If the need of them were but properly
made known to the good people of the
country; that there could be no ques-
tion of the right of the negro to emil
crate whenever he saw fit to do SO, and
that this would and should be main
tained; that the interest of the negroes
themselves would, he thought, be best
served by their scattering throughout
the western states instead of crowding
into any one of them; that he had no
doubt, from very extensive information
on the subject, but that all who CAME
from the south would get good employ
ment north of the Ohio. He said also,
the exodus would do good, and, in fact,
had done good already. AS to the
proposition to charter boats and deliver
them by thousands on the banks OF the
river, the president said he thought the
step ought to be taken as one of justice
and humanity. In answer to the fol-
lowing question: Suppose the planters
or their agents use violent means to
prevent such boats from accomplishing
their object, could the government be
relied upon to give its protection?'' the
president replied with considerable
spirit and earnestness: sSuch resist
ance to lawful business carried on on
the national highway, such as the Mis-
sissippi, would be rebellion, and there
would be no doubt but that the govern
ment would afford protection.

Important Circular.

Washington, May 26. The following
circular has just been issued by the
treasury department: "Holders of called
bonds which mature before the 1st of
July next, are requested to send them
to the department for payment during
the month of June. In this way holders
of such bonds will receive payment for
them with interest to maturity before
the bonds mature. The very large pay
ments of called bonds to be made in
July will fully occupy the different
offices of the department in that month,
and preference in the order of liquida-
tion will be given to maturing bonds
rather than to bonds past due, the
holders Of which have failed to present
them for payment. All United States
bonds forwarded for redemption should
be addressed to the ''Loan Division,
Secretary's Office" and all registered
bonds should be assigned to secretary
Of the treasury for redemption. -
When parties desire checks in pay
ment for registered bonds drawn to
the order of any one but the payee,
they should assign them to the secre-
tary of the treasury for redemption on
account of the owner or owners, giving
name or names thereof. As it is i'm
possible to notify directly the holders
of such called bonds, the press of the
country is respectfully requested to give
publicity to this notice that there may
be no delay in the payment of the bonds,
and that an accumulation of money in
the treasury may be avoided.
