A CENTER SHOT FROM VANDERBILT.

An interview with Vanderbilt is given
in our dispatches this morning, and 1t is
fall OF significance. The millionaire was
asked whether it was true th.t all the
bondholders and rich men were for the
Republican party from motives of personal
interest. He replied by pointing out that
the financial policy of the Republican
party had taken two millions a year out
OF his pocket, in reducing the interest on
the funded debt from to per cent. If,
therefore, he said, his motives were selfish,
according to the same reasoning he ought
to desire that the remaining per cent.
should be abolished, and the interest re.
duced to nothing, This was neat way
OF answering the demagogic cant which
desperate Democrats arc trying to make
capital out OF. II the "bloated bondboId.
GERS were consulted, and if all of them
were controlled solely by personal greed. it
is very certain that they would have been
found in body opposed to any propo.
sition for refunding the public debt, since
by that operation their earnings are dinlin-
ished. Vanderbilt, however, could not
keep his great fortune if he had not the
sagacity to perceive that the maintenance
of the public credit is the first necessity of
national prosperity, and that the better
the security the lower will the interest be.
VINO will sou trust The financial honor Of the
United States; think about it, Who can we trust

NEW DIRK, October Zoth.-BrlyadIer-
General Joseph w. Forsyth was the only
witness before the Warren Court of Inquiry
to-day. His evidence was in relation to an
interview between General Sheridan and
Warren Oh the day of the battle of Five
Forks While General Sheridan was talking.
General Warren sat part of the time and
stood part, and sketched the formation Of his
corps, which he submitted to General Sheri-
dan. 1t was habitual with General Warren
to sketch. He looked gloomy and despond-
ent when spoken to by General Sheridan, and
when the latter said there was no hope for the
enemy he replied that he had seen things look
that way before, butthat Bobby Lee always
got us at the end" Witness also stated that
General Sheridan had direc,ed him to write
an order removing General Warren from the
Fifth Corps and deliver it to him in person,
which he did.

Japanese and Chinese.

Comparing the japanese aud Chinese
students now enrolled in American schools
and colleges, several marked contrasts aud
likenesses are made evident. The most
prominent difference in respect to external
characteristics is the greater readiness
with which the former adopt the dress and
manners Of the Western world. The ia
panese dresses Ia European, and ia ex.
cellent taste; the Chinaman still braids his
cue, aud wears his loose trousers and blouse.
The japanese is more denatioualized; the
Chinaman is constantly impressed with the
duty Of loving and serving the land that
gave him birth and is giving him educa.

guage with greater ease aud uses il with
greater facility; the former, after resi-.
denee Of even fve or six years, expert.
enoes, In the case Of not few indiyidu-
ais, difficulty 10 conducting an ordinary
conversation. Both manifest much defer
ence to authority, and are models Of de-
corum and pOliteness. The Japanese be.
long relatively TO higher caste, the
majority Of the Chinese students are from
the middle class Of the Empire. In men
tai characteristics the contrasts are less
marked than in physical The exeellen-
cies and tho defects Of the two types Of
mind are similar. In each the memory
is developed TO degree not commonly
attained by an American sehool-boy; aud
the Chinese draw forms and figures which
they have once seen with marvellous accu-
racy. The superior development Of the
memory seems to weaken the growth Of
the logical faculties; and difficulty in
conducting processes Of thought Of ordina.
ry intricacy Is one Of the first defects
which teacher notices in their mental
constitution. Intellectually, both are
clear-sighted rather than far.sighted; and
are distinguished for cxactness IN thought
and statement. Considered as a whole,
the Chinese make more rapid progress in
linguistic, aud the Japanese-in mathemat-
ical studies. The former are by tempera.
ment the most passive, the latter the more
impulsive. Both are hard students, and
though seldom ranking first, maintain
creditable stand in their classes. In re-
spect to moral character, also, as well as
intellectual, high degree Of similarity is
obvious. Neither, as body, Is addicted to
the use Of liquors or tobacco, and both are
free from the vices to which American
college youth are somewhat subjected. -

The Buoyanoy Of Water.

Another terrible steamboat slaughter
Presence Of mind, and slight knowledge
OF the specific gravity Of the human body,
would have saved much of this frightful
loss oflife. There was loose wood enough
about the boat to have foated ten times
the number Of passengers on the ill-fated
vessel, If it had beed used with Judgment.
The human body weighs about one pound
IN the water, and single chair will carry
two grown persons. That Is, IL would keep
their heads above water, which is all that
IS necessary when it is question Of life or
death. The burning vessel was close 70
shore, the water was calm, and warm,
aud all Of these passengers might easily
have jumped overheard aud padded laugh
ing ashore, il they had only possessed and
used the simple knowledge that one finger
placed upon stool, or chair, or small
box, or piece Of board, would easily keen
the head above water, while the two feet
and the other hand might be used as pad
dies to propel towards the shore. 1t is not
at all necessary TO know how to swim 10
be able to keep from drowning in this way.
A little experience Of the buoyant power
Of matter, and faith 10 it, Is ali that Is re.
quired. We have seen a small boy who
could not swim stroke propel himself
back and forth across deep, wide pond
by means Of board that would not sus
tain fve pounds weight. In fact, that
sometime small boy is now writing this.
Children and Others should have practice
in the sustaining power Of water In nine
cases out Of ten the knowledge that what
will sustain pound weight is all that is
necessary to keep ones head above water,
will serve better in emergency than the
greatest expertneSs as swimmer. A per-
son unfamiliar with the buoyant power OF
water will naturally try to climb on top of the
Heating object on which he tries to save him.

water. While fishing here | discovered o
huge alligator regarding my movements
with apparent interest. As he seemed
civil and not evilly disposed, | threw him
a twenty.pound bass, and he ate it with
relish. For six days he remained near
me, reaping harvest. lie at last became
so tame that he stationed himself thirty
feet away, and received his fish with eyi-
dent pleasure. Nor did be act the hog,
or display any ingnti:ude. He took only
the fishes that were thrown to him. At
one time a vicious bluefsh snapped the
line above the float, and huge white
drum ran off with the bait. l followed
the float in boat and secured it. When
| returned, the old alligator was at his
station, and pile Of choice fish that
had reserved for myself was undisturbed.
