The Late Maharaiah of Jeypore.

By the death Of the maharaiah of
Jeypore, India has lost the most en-
lightened of her native sovereigns, and
England has lost firm friend. The
position of the mahararjah among the
princes of India was unique. All other
Indian princes assume the air Of war
riors; the prince of Jeypore had the
appearance and manners of a student.
His small, slight figure, his spec
tacled face, showed strangely among
the warlike figures who assembled at
Calcutta to do homage to the prince of
Wales on his arrival, but much as the
natives of India think Of military
pomp, no ruler was more beloved by
his people than was the prince, to
whom warlike shows we abhorent.
During the royal tour through India,
the other rajahs visited by the prince of
Wales -Scindia and Cashmere, and
Holkar-e exhibited with the pride their
armies, formed upon British models:
the rajah of Jeypore was content to
show city with broad regular streets,
scroupulously clean and well kept, and
a contented and prosperous people,
and amuse his guests with few hum
dred fighting men ola type elsewhere
extinct, armed with strange and un-
couth weapons a mere parody upon a
military force The rajah of Jeypore
was more proud of the schools he had
founded, the institutions he had set on
foot, the sanitary regulations he en-
forced, the magnificent enamel work
his people alone can produce, than of
the pomp and display in which other
Indian princes delight. And yet
among the rejapoots of whom he was
the chief, there is as good fighting
blood, as high, if not higher, a sense of
chivalry than among any other natives
of the Ind Jpn race. But the prince ap-
pears to have had the happy faculty of
convincing as we'll as rulinghis subjects,
and the fact that he should have been
immensely popular among all classes,
in spite OF devotion to the arts of
peace, and fondness for western in
novations of kind generally most OBJ
noxious to natives of India, speaks
volumes for his tact and wisdom as
well as his enlightenment and intelli-
gence. His death is grievous loss to
his subjects, and matter for sincere
regret among Englishmen in general.

A Petriaed sq nav.


On Thursday last Alonzo Zaletto, an
Italian fisherman, discovered a petrified
woman at Cascade Lake. He was go
ing out to fish at the time, and when
pushing off his boat, struck his oar
against something. which attracted his
attention. He investigated the matter
and found a petrified hand protruding
from the sand and pebbles on the
beach. In short time he had UNI
earthed woman. The body was small,
brown and scrawny and emaciated.
The petrifcation had q hideous APP
pearance, and the body originally must
have belonged to q shriveled, sickly
woman. The left breast was we'll de-
veloped, but the arms and legs were
not much larger than the bones would
have been, and the fingers of the right
hand were gone. The petrification
weighed nearly 208 pounds, and a
more unsightly object could not well
be imagined. 1t was brought down to
Lake Bigler in the afternoon, and L. ].
Wilson, of San Francisco, has offered
800 for it, as he wished to present it to
the Academy of Science. In all prob.
ability the body is that of an Indian
woman. There is tradition that
years ago the Indians had battle al
Cascade lake in which the squaws
Joined, and the dead were buried on the
shore of the lake. The finder wants
$50 for his prize, and it is probable
that tn sum will be paid by the acad

sufficient excuse for concurrent vote,
as the Chicago convention will undoubted-

prolong the session for partisan purposes,
while the Republicans, il the Democrats Go
as have indicated will allow no adjourn

convention, as it is just possible that the
Democrats will nominate some one who
cannot be supported by Republicans. The
early adjournment idea has been fostered
by two highly respectable clark horses"
Garfield and Randall, both of whom have
evinced considerable solicitude for the lib
critics of the people, in the shape of protec-
tive tariff laws, and have thus far only been
defeated by combination of congressman
who are interested in appropriations for
public civil buildings, and who were antag-
onized by the appropriation committee,

the full powers OF congress.

The feeling in congress is very favorable
to the bill which provides pension for all
of those who have been employed in the
civil service Of the country for fifty years
continuously. At first thought it would
seem as if there could be very few who
could claim this pension, but investigation
shows that the number is quite large. There
are several country postmasters who held
on to their Offices for over half century,
and in the different departments at Wash
ington there are clerks who entered the gov.
eminent service when they were very young,
and who have given to the civil service full
fifty years OF work. They have saved no.
thing and pension in their old age would
be appreciated by them.
