THE wonder often expressed at English
ignorance Of American affairs is lessened
by reading what one George Cary Eggles-
ton wrote from America in a London paper
about the death Of Gen. Garfield. He said
that "while not intending anything of the
kind, the stalwarts led by MIR. Arthar, were
responsible for Guiteau's crime. So bitter
and violent was this feeling that a gentle
man who has held the very highest official
positions, and has been cabinet officer
under Q former administration, said to me
at the time: The president will probably
die, but if you love your country, pray
God that his death may be delayed; for if it
comes speedidly. we shall have civil wal.
The people are so exasperated with the
stalwarts that they will not permit Arthur
to succeed Garfield without struggle. I"
English readers are constantly RECALLED with
this sort OF stuff by American correspond
ents who have no scruples whatever in re.
gard to what they communicate concerning
our affairs, so long as sensation can be
creatsd.e In this respect they are worse than
the Washington correspondents, and that is
saying great deal.

AS bit of Melbourne gossip arising out
of the recent visit of the Detached Squad
ron to Melbourne, We need not conceal the
rumor, which is believed to have truth to
rest upon, that Lord Charles Scott, captain
of the Bacchante, has been engaged to be
married to Miss Ada Ryan, daughter of Mr..
Charles Ryan, Mount Macedon, Victoria.
1t is said that MIR. Ryan did not readily ac-
quiesce in the purposes of the two princi.
pals in this affair of the heart. and that at
the most he would only consent condition
ally-the conditions being that the duke of
Bucclench. father of the love smitten sail
or, should be consulted, in the first place,
and that the affairs should he postponed
for twelve months.
Here is how The Melbourne Bulletin
(suppressing the names) has put the story
in its pages" She was beautiful bru-
nette, with certain witchery in her eye
that had charmed and fascinated the gal
liant and noble captain. As they sat
together in the conservatory. he,
in bluff, manly, sailer-like fashion,
asked her for her hand-her heart was al
ready his. oh, my lord! she said, blush
ing up to her eyelids, you must really ask
papa And ask papa that noble and GAL
liant captain did next day. No. said the
old man, sternly; love my daughter, and
if she marries into your family fear in
the end she might be unhappy; besides,
although you can answer for yourself, you
do not know how she would be received by
your people, But pleaded the captain,
If 1 write home and get nay fathers and
mothers consent, will you not give way?
We'll, replied the father, get that fixed,
then We will talk about it, for do not wish
to stand in the way of my daughters hap
piness." And now, as the Bulletin puts
the matter, there is q letter speeding ita
way home over the snowy billows, watched
by two young and anxious hearts. Will il
all end happily We shall see.

Louis T. Pow. prominent young busi-
nes-man of Salem, Columbiana county.
O., was arraigned in the United States
district court at Cleveland, last week, on
very serious charge-that of sending on OBJ
scene pamphlet through the mails. He
has for some time been sending this PAM
phlet, which bears the euphcnious title of
Nuggets" to young ladies'. Pow is a
married man, about 26 years OF age, OF
highly respectable family, and said to be
claimed that he was assisted In the nefarious
business by bookkeeper, who has hied
imself to some other place to avoid the
consequences of his acts. The pamphlet
which he has been sending to young ladies
is paper-bound book, four by six inches,
and containing thirty-two pages of the
most filthy and scurrilous prose and poetry
ever printed:

FIRES AND OTHER Gas ALrIEs.

At the farm house of Fila Parker, in Bloom
field township, Iowa, while putting up a stove,
the pipe fell down on lamp filed with patent
safety fluid. The lamp exploded instantly en-
veloping two little children sitting at the table
with the burning fluid, setting their clothes on
fire and burning them horribly before the
flames were subdued. In removing their
shreds Of clothing the flesh peeled to the bones.
The boy lived but q few hours. The girl will
probably recover Their parents were badly
burned in their endeavors to save their children.
The captain Of the steamer Winslow at Du-
luth, was asleep in his stateroom Saturday
night, when some unknown person entered and
stole therefrom q valuable gold watch and
chain; also Z new suit of clothes and some old
clothes belonging to the captain. Some of the
clothing was found on the wharf yesterday, but
no clue to who the thief is has yet been discov-
cred. At tho time of the robbery there were
four watchmen on duty on the steamer, and it
seems q little strange that the thief could have
eluded them and made good his escape with
the booty.

CRAZY OVER GOLD.

A "Crank" Who Would Take Nothing but
Coin for His Bonds.
This afternoon an old man with a valise
full Of gold beside him, and quantity of
the coin, which he was counting on the table
before him, sat in the room Of Assistant
Treasurer Wyman. His name VAS Jesse
Baldwin, and he came from Ohio. He
owned $17.149in 6 per cent. bonds.
They matured on the lst of July last, and
he came hers to have them cashed. He
demanded the gold for his bonds, and he
would have nothing else. Treasurer Gil
fllan tried to induce him to take treasury
checks, but he would have none Of them ;
he wanted the gold and nothing else. He
was finally paid that coin. double eagles
being gwen him.
The weight Of the whole amount was about
70 pounds, This was more than he could

AS regards the proposed new national
bankruptcy law, United States Senator In
gals, of Kansas, says: "The sub-commit-
tee have been engaged during the summer
in collecting information from all parts of
the country as to the desires of the CONNER
cial classes in respect to the enactment of
a national bankrupt law. There has been
no consultation as yet upon the subject by
the committee, and nothing definite will be
done until congress meets in December. "
It is important that the new law should be
in operation before the crash that wise
people believe is impending and likely to
occur at much earlier period than has
been apprehendcd.

VENNER INDUCES in long preamble
about the coming winter weather, but
finally states that he looks to a further con-
tinuance of the warm wave on our cont.
nent during the approaching winter.
Broken, this may and will be, by waves OF
low temperature, but these will be of but
brief duration as compared with the pro-
tracted periods of mildness and warmth.
As usually happens in such winters there
may be an advanced and severe term of
cold and snow as early as October or No.
vember. If SO, look out for an open
"Christmastide."

The steady drain of gold from the bank
reserves of England, France and Germany
for nearly three years begins to alarm the
ablest fnanciers of England and the con-
tinent. While the coin supply OF Europe
has beer steadily diminishing our coin
supply has been increasing at rate which
has made possible the widest speculative
enterprises. The excess of exports of gold
from Great Britain alone during the years
1879 and 1880 amounted to over $50, ,O0O,-
600, while the excess for the last nine
months has teen about $40, ,O00.0 more.
And still the golden current continues to
flow ut the rate of several millions mouth,
regularly, in addition to all that has been
sent before. What the end will be no one
can tell, nor the ultimate effects at home
and abroad.

els in which he put the coin, he staggered
across the cash room to Mr.. Wyman's Of
fee and immediately began to count bis
ducats. He sid nothing to anybody after
he got the yellow coin, but was very demon

was evidently crank. Lsut. Reklof was
