Abiding to the recent meeting held in
Philadelphia of the centennial organiza-
ton for the better endowment of Wash
ington and Lee University, an account
of which has already appeared in our
telegraph columns, the Inquirer of that
city editorially remarks: ''The meeting
was a memorable effort TO attract popu-
lar attention and affection to that college.
The meeting was presided over by Hon.
Samuel ]. Randall, and appeals in be-
half of the University were made by dis
tinguished citizens from different Sec
tions of the country, showing an active
interest in the affairs of this university
similar to that displayed by General
Washington HIMSELF. by leaders of all
parties and many professions, and rep
resenting the intelligence, wisdom and
wealth of the whole country. In no
way can we prove more conclusively our
desire for the complete determination Of
the whole people of the Union than by
promoting the success of this venerable
but enterprising university, which will
continue to distribute its great benisons
throughout the United States by the ad-
vanced education it provides to its
alumni, and enlarges its usefulness in
exact proportion to the patronage ex-
tended. 1t will also give to the youth
of the South an opportunity to Sc
cure thorough instruction, many
branches of which cannot be obtained
elsewhere The outcome must be such
liberal encouragement to the Washing
ton.Lee University as will impel its
managers to promptly carry out all their
excellent plans for extending the useful
ness of the institution. The association
honored itself and recognized the distin-
guished claims to credit of two noble
American citizens by electing as its
President Mr.. w. w. Corcoran, of
Washington City, and as Vice President
Mr.. II. II. Houston, of Philadelphia.
The former holds US firmly linked to the
patriotism of the past, while the latter is
bright representative of the enterprise
and civilization of to-day"

Why the Scotch Emigrate.

Mr. Alexander Sinclair, editor of
the Glasgow Herald, who has been
making an extensive tour of the
United States, going as far west
as the Rocky Mountains, sailed from
New York for Glasgow Saturday last.
Mr. Sinclair says the desire to i'm
migrate from Scotland to the United
States is more so than formerly, es.
pecially among the better classes of far
mers-men who have a little money.
There is feeling of independence grow
ing up, desire to own land for them
selves, that pervades all the members of
the Scottish farming community, so
that as soon as they can get what they
consider undoubted information about
the farming lands of this country, and
make sure where is the best place
to go to, they will come over in large
numbers. This increased desire to i'm.
migrate, Mr. Sinclair says, is due in part
to the agitation about the land laws, to
the increasing spirit of wide prudence,
and to the fact that American ceef and
American dairy products have become
the great rivals of the British farmers
products. The probabilities, therefore,
are that the great proportion of immi-
grants will be farmers. Heretofore
mechanics have come over, because
work was scarce for them at HON, Now
they can find work in Scotland, and
while their wages are not as high they
save more, as the cost of living is less.

National FINANCES.

The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun says: eff the public
revenues keep up the figures which have
been prevailing for some time, the cash
balance in the Treasury on the Both of
this month, the end of the fiscal year,
will run close up to $17O, 600, 900. About
$16,000,00 of this will be used TO liqui-
date the six per cents. which the holders
decline to convert into the new three
and half per cents. In about month
after the accruing unconverted five per
cents. will be due, and the cash balance
will be largely drawn on to provide for
them. A portion of the five per cents
already due have not been presented for
payment, but may be at any time. To
meet these obligations, the cash balance
in the Treasury will be considerably re-
duced in the next three months. But
there is no anticipation that any embar.
rassment will be suffered in consequence,
and it is considered that the Secretary
will be able to send in very f1attering
report of the condition of the national
finances when Congress meets in De-
cember.

CoLoNIZING MEXICO. Mr.. Samuel
Brannan, who has been granted by the
Mexican Government large area of fine
land on which to found colony of
Americans, has arrived in San Francisco
and been the recipient of a banquet
which was attended by many leading
citizens. Mr.. Brannan offers tempting
inducements to those who first come for
ward to colonize his land-a free grant
of 100 acres of land and city lot; the
land and the lots to be selected alternate
ly, and the priority of choice is given to
those who first arrive on the ground. In
addition to these advantages the Mexican
Government undertakes to pass through
its customs free of duty and through its
mails all supplies and letters for bona
fide settlers on the Brannan grant. When
five hundred families are on the ground,
the title of the second half of the grant
or AZ leagues more will be given to Mr..
Brannan.

The Northeastern Zimmerman declares
that the South will, within a few years,
make great deal of money over the sale
of furniture timber. Walnut is becom-
ing so scarce as to give furniture manu-
facturers in all parts of the country a
great deal of trouble. The North and
West is completely exhausted, and prices
have gone up twelve dollars thousand
in the past year. The furniture people
are now largely dependent upon the
South for their supply. Some of the
shrewder ones have already sent agents
South to buy up as much land timbered
with good furniture timber as possible,
but the majority of them are hoping that
something will turn up to get them out
of their difficulties. 1t was thought by
some of them that mahogany would
again assert itself and take the place of
walnut, but this the Lum5erman thinks
improbable, as mahogany is becoming
scarce in Mexico and South America,
and has TO be conveyed from points so
far in the interior that its cost is too
great to allow its use to any large extent
in cabinet making.

The New York Legislature has very
large idea of its rights and powers. One
of its latest acts was to prohibit foreign
insurance companies from bringing suit
in the United States Courts, aud COM
polling them to go to the State courts in
stead. As the Federal Constitution ex-
pressly grants foreigners and citizens of
another State the right to seek redress in
the United States courts, the act of the
New York Legislature was a bold at
tempt to override its provisions. Fortu.
nately Governor Cornell interfered with
a veto. declaring the act the widest one
he had ever had an opportunity of kill
ing.

THE REMEDY.-The New York Jour-
nal Of Commerce says one of the saddest
things connected with the allegation of
bribery just made at Albany is that the
charge astonishes nobody, despite the
affectation of amazement on the part of
the members of4the Legislature. 1t de-
clares that statutes and investigations are
useless to stop legislative bribery, and
that it Twill only become extinct when
communities cease to give Office to I'M
worthy candidates. There are some
men in every city and town and village
whose lives have been pure, honest and
honorable. When these men are pre-
ferred as legislators to the professional
politicians and chrome office seekers AL.
bany will be freed from the suspicion
which now clings TO her as the hot-bed
of venality." What the Journal Of Com:
merce suggests as the remedy for legisla-
tive bribery is worthy of consideration
and application outside of New York.

CONGRESSMAN SPEER's LAwLEss DIS
TRIcT.-"It is reported" says Wash
ington dispatch. that the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue has written letter
to the Secretary of the Treasury to the
effect that the Georgia district repre-
sented in the House by Mr.. Speer is the
most lawless in the United States so far
as internal revenue is concerned, and
that the moonshiners and other defraud-
ers of the government are encouraged in
their acts by Mr.. Speer" Commission
er Raum seems very anxious to create
the impression that there is perpetual
war going on between his department
and the ''moonshiners, backed by the
people of Georgia; but he should be
careful how he makes such serious
charges against member of Congress.

a GROUNDLESs RUMoR.-The well in
formed Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore Sun says: There need be
no confidence placed in the statements
that Mr.. Randall is engaged in a scheme
to combine the Democrats and Green
hackers with view to control the next
House. Mr.. Randall is particularly OBJ
noxious to the Greenback members, as
they allege that mis- treatment of them
during the last Congress was very un-
fair. In addition to this, any combina-
ton that Mr. Randall would be interest
ed in would, of course, have for its pri-
mary object his reelection as Speaker
This would be manifestly impossible,
because quite a number of Democratic
members have publicly affirmed that
under no circumstances would they
again vote for Mr. Randall for Speaker.
Ii may be assured as certain, all specula-
ton to the contrary, that the Republi-
cans will organize the next House with
fully as large a majority as the Demo-
Gratis had in the last House."

There are at present in the Old World
and in the New World more than zoe, 900
railway locomotives. Their total force
is equal to 10000, 900 horse power, and
all the other steam engines on the globe
are estimated at 46, 600, 600 horse power.
The technical ''horse power" however,
Is really equal to three average horses,
and each horse to about seven men; the
aggregate power, therefore, of all the
engines being vastly more than the effec-
tive force Of all the human workers
living. Four-fifths of the steam engines
now at work have been made within a
quarter of a century or so.

The undoubted willingness OF Conk-
ling to form an alliance with the Demo
Gratis in order to secure his return to the
United States Senate has given rise to a
curious statement, current in Washing
ton. which may or may not be true in
manner and form stated, but which, in
the light of known facts and of the e1-
isting situation. is not difficult of belief.
It is that the Conkling people tempted
Tilden with the proffer of Platt's place
as the price of Democratic support OF
Conkling, and that Tilden refused to en-
Ter into the proposed bargain, not only
because he did not want and would not
accent a seat in the United States Senate
under any circumstances. but because he
approves the position of President Gar
field in the present controversy alike upon
considerations of law and of choice.

Why the Greenback Organizations
are Kept Alive.

A Washington dispatch says: Last
summer and fall the managers of
the Greenback organization at this
point worked the canvass in the
interest of the Republican party for
all that it was worth in this respect,
following the example of the Presiden-
tial candidate of the Greenback party,
Gen. Weaver, whose every move and
every speech tended to advance the Re-
publican cause. limitations were fire.
quent that substantial equivalents had
been given for this aid, and while natu-
rally enough these limitations were re-
PEELED by those interested with great
show of Indignation, they were gener-
ally believed, and are to this day. The
Greenbackers are keeping up their sepa-
rate local and national organizations, and
a conference of the members of the
national committee has been called at
ST. Louis The same agencies which
were at work last year to control this
organization for the benefit of the Re
publican party are again in operation.
Republicans in disguise-men who
know how to scheme and plot-are
beng put forward for places on the COM
mittee, which will have the control of
all the machinery of the Greenback
organization. The importance of this
move can we'll be appreciated when it is
remembered that the Republicans only
are able to maintain a majority in num-
Der of important States in the North
through the diversion of voters to the
Greenback organization, who would, if
there were no such organization. cast
their ballots for the Democratic candi-
dates.

Statistics of pauperism in England for
the year which closed in January last
furnish striking example of the poverty
which exists at the side of colossal for
tunes and material social and political
progress. The number of paupers on
the 1st of January was 500. SIS, of whom
1873, $50 were indoor paupers and 614,-
232 outdoor, with exactly and only III
of the total number classed as ere
lieved." Reckoning the total popula-
ton at %, 7OO,0 900, which are the figures
given in the census of 1871, the proper
ton stands one pauper to every twenty
eight persons. Some improvement, how
ever, was made over the previous year
a reduction of paupers numbering a.
513, who were confined wholly to the
outdoor class.

THE WORLDS BALANCE SHEET. For
the decade 187O-1S8O, according to Mr..
Mulhall, the statistician, the worlds bal
ance sheet stands thus: Increaseof popu-
lation 9.76 per cent, of agriculture 8.56
per cent, of manufactures IS. 60 per cent,
commerce $500 per cent, mining 47O6
per cent, carrying trade 1922 per
cent. These figures, says the Baltimore
American, are very remarkable. They
not only show that mans resources
grow much faster than he increases, but
that his condition is being improved and
elevated by the enormous increase of the
more skillful forms of labor, which
bring in the highest wages and exact the
fewest hours of work.

Edwards, the Albany lobbyist, came
to Assemblyman Trimble and offered to
buy his vote. Trimble says that he
naturally thought, 'as any other honest
man would. that Edwards was rascal.
Trimble, however, did not, as any other
honest man would, kick Edwards out of
the room. He was not in the humor, so
he testifes to treating him uncivilly, and
after cutting the conversation short, ac-
companied the precious scOundrel to the
door and bowed him out. The impress
sion which the testimony will leave upon
the other honest men in the country
who, by the way. will not be iattered by
Mr.. Trimble's companionship-will be
that he is either a fool or knave-or
both.
