been appointed to ascertain the nature and
amount of the debts, aud to take preliminary
measures with a view to making arrangements

it was only when taken to hospital that her
sex was discovered. Notwithstanding this,
on her recovery she was permitted to re-enter |
the army. She claims to have served three
years, and exhibits her scars4as evidence of
the truth of her statements and of her hon

There are gentlemen of culture and expert
ence employed in the United States Treasury
at Washington who do not consider it beneath
their dignity TO sit beside and associate with
an intelligent. we'll bred colored clerk, while
have apparently considered it an act of con-
tamination to speak to an amiable, inoffensive
youth, who possesses at all events as much
manly dignity as the best of them. 1t may
be further added that at many European Uni
versties, notably that Of Edinburgh, colored
students as black as the ace of spades have
been received with the courtesy and consider
alton due to manhood and intellect wherever
found, without respect to color, race, parent
age or nationality.

1t is reported on the authority of a Tribune
correspondent that Senator Edmunds has said
very Smphaticaly that the mention of his
name as a candidate for the Presidency is
exceedingly distasteful to him. and that 1t
will not be presented to the Convention with
his consent. There is no doubt that Senator
Edmnnds is sincere III this declaration, and
singular as it may seem, that he has an abso-
lutte freedom from the presidential itch y
that afiiicts nearly all our prominent states
men. But the fact remains that the country
could not have wiser or safer President than
he would make MorriSto@n Jerseyuaaa.
THE DOOMED DEMOCRACY ANY lingering
doubt--if such existed--that samuel j. rilden
would not be a candidate for the Presidential
nomination before the National Democratic
Convention, is dspelled by Mr. Theodore p
Cook, of Utica, N. Y, Editor Of the Utica
Observer and author of sThe Life and Times
of Samuel j. Tiden" Mr.. Cook may be
considered to speak with authority, in conse-
quence of the close intimacy with Mr. Tilden
which he must have enjoyed N order to write
such book. He recently visited the Gram
ercy Park statesman and spent night with
him, revising an additional chapter for the
new edition of the above " Life, F" which APP
pleton Il Co. are to issue Immediately after
the Cincinnati Convention. The additional
chapter gives history of the Presidential
fraud, and explains deliberately the cipher
dispatches.
Contrary to current rnmor, Mr.. Cook says
that his patron is in good health, has no par
alysis, and is in dead earnest in his claim for
the nomination. Why said MIR. Cook,
g it would be political suicide 10 throw over
/ board man who has expended $75O,00O out
of his private fortune for the benefit of the
Democratic party If the party needs 1t Til
den will spend million this year In organic
ing for victory, and we cannot afford to throw
such candidate over, and take up with
poorer man."
This is the vital point, and the one which
will have most influence with the hundreds OF
impecunous delegates who will gather at Gin
cinnati--that Tilden twill spend million
dollars If necessary"
