curtailing our use of it. Life is too short
and our routine of living run on too rapid
scale to give four years to college, and
two or three thereafter learning profess
sion. 1t may do for some, but not for
the masses in whose interest we speak.
The right metal is the main thing and if
that be in a person he will dig out name
and fame without the hot house culture
Of the college. If the dead languages or
high methods, or any deeply hidden sci
ence be needed, he will fathom the depths
and polish his mind and shine with the
great geniuses Of the age, and best Of all
he will be vigorous and self-made.

PREsIDENT OF THE SENATE.
why no President Pro Tenn. was
Elected Before Adjournment.
wa.hlnELon spseIal . baltimore sun

Washington special TO Baltimore Sun
A statement was widely circulated
some time after the adjournment OF
the last special session Of the Senate,
to the effect that the reason OF the
failure TO elect, in accordance with
~unvarying customs, a President pro
tenn. of the Senate, was due to the fact
that there was a disposition on both
sides Of the chamber to center on
Governor Harris, Of Tennessee, but
that Mr.. Bayard had made such a
point in his own favor that it was
impossible to reconcile di~ferences,an
a sine die adjournment took place,
with this important action, made
doubly so by the attack on the Presl-
dent, honored only in the breach.
Your correspondent has been placed
in possession of the facts in the case,
which it is eminently proper should at
at this time be made public, as in case
of the death Of the President it would
be considered i~mperatively necessary.
to summon speedily the Senate
in special session, whereas ii there
was a President pro tenn. OF that
body no such necessity would exist.
A few days before the final adjourn
ment Of the Senate all, or nearly all,
of the leading Democratic Senator'S
were approached with the suggestion
that it would be an eminently fit
thing to select Governor Harris as
President pro TEN; hat owing to the
peculiar position of politics in Ten
nessee. and the issues dividing the
Democratic party of the State on the
questions Of debt paying or repudia-
ton, the selection Of Governor Harris
would materially assist and strengthen
that wing Of the party which had
planted itself in favor of honest obi.
cations. The Democratic Senators gen.
orally recognized that under some
circumstances there might be more or
less force in these suggestions, but
they held that there could be no pos
sible combination of circumstances
which could outweigh the claims of
Mr.. Bayard in this connection; that
in point Of service he was the Oldest
Senator on the Democratic side; that
his high character and ability deserv-
eddy made him the leader, and that
according to all rules and prece-
dent he was entitled to the position.
Butin the course Of all this discussion.
and consultation it is Just and proper
to say that Mr.. Bayard took
no part, and to those who
know him at all it is superAuous to
make this assertion. There was no
Democratic caucus to consider the
question, as has been intimated. These
are the facts so far as Mr.. Bayard is
concerned. Why Gen. Arthur did
not follow the course which every Vice
President has pursued since the foun-
dation of the government, and by va
eating the chair give the Senate an
opportunity to elect a President pro
tenn is for him to say. 1t is no secret
that there never have been any but
the coolest and most formal relations
between Senators Bayard aud Conk-
ling. Whether this had anything to
do with the extraordinary course Of
the Vice President may be left to the
| public judgement.

A Rural Wedding and What Fol-

lOWed.
"Clara Bellies" Vermont letter.
We had a contrast between town
and rural manners and dress yester-
day at a country wedding. The bride
was a rosy checked chambermaid at
the hotel, and we we're all invited to
the marriage at her fathers farm
house, several miles away. The eere
mouy was performed in the usual man
ner by a clergyman, late 10 the after
noon. A bountiful, if not p~reteLtious
supper followed, and then came games
odd fashioned kissing games, like
Copenhagen, Dostofice and forfeits
The city girls held off for awhile, but
seeing hat their coyness was not well
received, made martyrs of themselves
and generally liked it. l think l OBJ
served a fact that is not generally
known in kissing that, for the most
electrical results, one kisser should
be a blonde and the other a brunette,
representing the opposite poles Of a
battery. Certainly the kisses between
persons ofthe same complexion looked
and sounded mechanical and perfume
tionary, while those by contrssted
couples we're fiery, spirited and har
moniously explosive. However, after
several hours Of diversions, largely
OsculatOry, there went to bed a
most thoroughly kissed bride. Her
scarlet lips looked swollen with the or.
deal Of long and earnest kissing, for
she had been smacked over and over
by every man and woman in the party.
She had borne the treatment with
good humor. and no married lifc
was ever begun with a irolic. But The
browning exploit was an observance o
the old Vermont custom of tucking NJ
the happy couple in bed. Halt al
hour after they had retired Wa bur.
glarized their bed chamber, anC
turned the light Of half a dozen lamp,
on them. We saw a sight that provet
woman's superior fortitude. Thu
bridegroom turned red and white b,
turns and was completely fabbergated
but the bride, though her face b
rosy enough on the snowy pillow, wa
quite possessed. She had dressed her
self in a dainty new night dress, wit
shrrings over the shoulders and O.
the bishop sleeves, and may have de-
rived her courage from a previOu
view Of herself in the glass. Yer
lovely she was, and very prettily care
full 10 keep herself covered u enougl
but not so much as 10 hide the yoke Q
that charming night gown. The cere
mony consisted Of tucking the be,
clothes all around, and so closely apC
violently that the new man and wifi
were well shaken together. Then W
left them.

Howgate's fright.
Washington Dispatch.l

Washington Dispatch.l
Captain Howgate's default will
amount to $500, 900. His property in
this city was seized on attachment
yesterday by the government. 1t will
not cover one-half the amount stolen.
Meanwhile the gallant Captain is
missing. From being short of his
accounts he has actually become short
himself. The direction taken is un-
known. but it is supposed he has been
in Canada several days. His bonds
men are left in the lurch to the tune
of 10000. They are good for the
amount. The Captain is reputed to
have taken with him about $22,000in
cash. He has also taken his mistress,
Nellie Burrill, the story Of whose
liason with Howgate first appeared
in these dispatches and furnished
the clue to the government
officers. Fortunately for his wife the
latter was left behind by the scoun-
drel, and this wife is now left, with a
grown daughter, entirely penniless.
1t appears that this plan of escape has
been premeditated. The wife had
some property OF her own, but the
licentious husband got possession Of it
in some way, disposed Of it and kept
the money. A part Of this was in
furniture. When the exposure Of his
Thirteenth street establishment and
the family row which accompanied its
discovery by his wife occurred, he
sent his wife and daughter to Ocean
Grove. Once out Of the way, they
we're kept in ignorance as to what was
going on. He then took the elegant fur
niture of the Thirteenth street estab-
lishment and disposed Of it, moving
his mistress to a more secluded spot,
He then took his wife's furniture and
placed it in the deserted house and
collected all his rents in,advance, and
otherwise raised money by converting
his securities. His counsel made q
vigorous fight to get his bail fixed at
as low a figure az possible. bis bold
move Of coming back here at the first
movement after his arrest in Detroit
is supposed to have been a part Of the
bluff game be was playing to get away
with what property he had in this city.
He evidently thought he could get
away from here, where he had so many
personal friends, on his own per-
sonal fecognizance, but Captain How.
gate overreached himself. anil the
gyatings of a prison rose before his
vision before he had been here twenty
four hours. 1t is thought by those
who know him that he was PLANNING
for fight with his mistress to the
Sandwich Islands, as they had lone
ago laid an immigration scheme o.
that kind. When the appraisers went
over his houses yesterday it is reported
that some very rich discoveries were
ma de. Where the guilty birds have
flown is purely a matter Of conjecture,
There are four persons, however, who
are just now very anxious TO know
and these arc the fersaken wife, the
United States Marshal Of the District
of Columbia aud the two bondsmen

George Martin is a thin-faced,
Sharp-eyed, curly-haired, leathern-
colored negro who killed another
negro in a gambling spree at Senate
bia, Miss, two years ago.
1t was learned that George was on
the Gibson farm aud on Tuesday a
warrant was placed in the hands Of
Marshal Walker, who took as an
assistant r. Il. Cole, and they started
out at night with the proposition to
catch a mighty bad negro. As a result
the refugee was interviewed in Jail
yesterday by our reporter, whose QuGs-
.tions he answered very frankly aud
intelligently, yet he has the air of a
man who Is not AFRAID.
Our reporter asked:
what was the name of the party

II can't remember. | think it was

They all ran out. but l followed them
and made them come back. This
fellow was the last one 10 and the only
one who refused to be searched. Just
as he came in he grabbed me, after
some scutling he got me down, and |

ANOTHER WONDER.
A Powder Mountain Discovered
ia Arkansaw.
Dardancllo Immigrant ]

Dardanelle Immigrant,
ION lost Monday morning Hardy
Duke brought into town a rag full of
black stuff much in appearance like
old caked powder. A piece as large
as a thumb was laid on the brick.
pavement and fred with a match,
when it burned like wet powder,
smelled like powder, and tasted like
powder, but the residue was hard
white cake, something like sulphur,
which chung tenaciously to the brick
and was very hot. Uncle Jack Boyce
made a similar experiment with a.
piece about as large as an egg, when.
it fumed and fried like burning sui
phur and closed with a number of
little explosions which threw burning
drops Of the stuff on Mr.. Boyce,s
shirt, each piece burninga hole in the
cloth. With this residue was found
some small red fragments of stuff as
hard as stone. Mr.. Duke seems to
think he has struck a bonanza, and
refuses to tell where it is found further
than that it is dug out of a mountain

table powder mountain near us we
shall move.
