Republic of Guatem ala.

~. ". DomOcrhl.
The interior Of the republic of Guatemala,
from either coast, Mt 3 distance OF about
twelve leagues from the sea, may, therefore,
be classod as eminently healthy; as much so,
perhaps, as any portion of our own highly
fovored republic. The population Of Guate-
mala may be safely estimated at / 400, 900 peo-
pie Of whom, perhaps, at least 300 900 are full
blooded Indians, and the other 100000 are
creolcs and foreign whites.The latest CEN
sus was taken in 1872, but during my visit
another was being taken. Col. Mcjia, an
officer Of the regular army who at present
is filling civil position, gave me the above
figures. He assures me that the given esti-
mate will probably fall below the actual re-
suit OF the census.
The annual revenue of the republic was, in
1877, $i,520000, one-third of which was de-
rived from duties on imports. The ex
psnditures Of the government was little
less than its revenue. The public debt
which, in 1875, nearly reached S4,000,000,
is now reduced oabout $3,000,000. The
greater part of this debt was contracted du.

Fate OF a Patriotic Tramp.

The Police Court bcak, the honorable
Smell, called the turn this morning on u
wooden-legged tramp named Frank Pile,
and sent him to the workhouse for thirty
days. This was rough On Pile, who has
been among the most faithful of those who
have fingered around the entrance to the
Executive Mansion grounds watching the
progress of the Presidents condition. When
Pile had been lowered down the shaft and
the windlass had ceased its creakings, the
thugs" over in the cooler Joined in the
following anthem:
ooh, Franklin dear, we live in fear
That we will meet at the river;
His Honor here, now on his ear,
Has turned stern Pile-driver."
Pile paid no heed to the song Of his boon
companions, but as he passed out of sight he
whispered to Bailiff Barton, asking him to
send him the latest bulletin of the Presi-
dents condition tonight, so that he could
go to sleep knowing in just what position
the country stood.

Prosecuting Russian Jews.


The anti-Jewish riots in Southern Russia
resulted in the destruction of property
valued at $3,600,000, a smaller amount than
the first account reported. All the leading
rioters have now been tried ut Kief by
cOurt-martial, and several were condemned
to loss of civil rights and terms ofimprison-
mont varying from a few months to three
and-a-h half years. One individual, at least
was condemned to twenty years exile in
Siberia. At Odessa, where the prompt
action of the authorities prevented much
damage being done, the rioters were tried
by magistrate and few of the principals
were sentenced to undergo short terms Of
imprisonment varying from one week to
three months. 1t is now considered pretty
certain that these riots may be ascribed to
the impoverished condition of the country
through the failure of last years harvest;
to the ignorance of the peasants; their
hatred of the jew as money lender; their
jealousy of his wealth; their desire to re-
venge themselves upon those whom they
consider to have impoverished them, and
the hope in some of plumber.

The Socialist Salon party, of Chicago,
had meeting yesterday and denounced the
attempted assassination of the President by
Guiteau. They cmphatically deny that
socialistic principles had anything to do
with it. They think it was the natural
outgrowth of the concentration of power in
the President and Senate and the last reso-
luton adopted is as follows: Resolred, That
we hope that this attempted assassination
will call the peoples attention to the
dangerous power invested in the President
of this country, and that it will lead to the
speedy abolition of that office and of the
United States Senate, which is little less
pernicious and dangerous and equally un'
democratic and absurd.
The Rabbinical Association met in Chi
cago Saturday and adopted the following
resolution: "That the attempt on the life
of the President of our beloved country
which has filed with dismay the whole
civilized world and elected the deepest
sympathy of rulers and peoples for him and
his family, has touched our'hearts to the
core. We Join our prayers with those Of
the great human brotherhood to oul
Heavenly Father that He may speedily
grant our beloved Chief Magistrate speedy
and full recovery, knowing that OF his
suffcrings arose the Angel of Mercy and
Love, who cemented with new ties stronger

IL The Sand slipping" Again ?

WASHINGTON, July s.-Attorney- Gen
eral MacVcagh is just now the object of vio-
lent abuse from the Star-routc men and
their organs for his alleged efforts to manu-
facture a conspiracy in connection with the
murderous act of Guteau. Mr.. MacVeagh' S
positive and repeated assertions, to all who
have mentioned the matter to him that he
entcrtains no suspicion that there was con-
spiracy, and has only sought to investigate
such circumstances in connection with the
act of Guiteau as common prudence and his
official duty prompted, have no weight with
his traducers.
The volume Of evidence is something
enormous and as yet its character is un.
known to the men who are most deeply
interested in stopping further proceedings
Hence, doubtless, the abuse of the Attorney
General. 1t will not avail.

Only twelve women have received

and an Italian lady named Rosetti, and q
Russian lady named Goutscharon, are well

more than three of the female physicians
now practicing in Paris are Of French ma
tionality; but one of these who began to
while burdened with two children, has at
tanned distinction, and is q regular medical
attendant at the Chatelet Theatre. The
number of female medical students now
studying is forty-twO, of whom three are
American, eighteen English, eleven French
and ten Russian. The length and expen-
siveness of a course of medical study in the
French capital keep the number Of female
students small. Such course lasts seven

Penetration of Rifle Bullets.


Hartford Comm Courant, Julys.
Col. Corbin, of the War Department, an
old friend of Gen. Garfield and constant
visitor ut the White House, says 81 have
an idea that ball does not have its great
est power of penetration directly upon
leaving the muzzle, and we are busy now in
trying to discover some data upon this
question" Others have imagined such q
thing before and have experimental. A
ball, certainly is at its greatest velocity
upon leaving the muzzle, and whether it
has its greatest penetration then depends
upon the character of the substance into
which it is discharged. Col. Corbin will
find that if he discharges II rifle-ball with
20 grains of powder into bank Of clear
sand, it will fatten out into % "rose "
almost as if he had fired against rs iron tar
get at, say, 500 yards, and penetrate u COM
paratively short distance; but, that if he
sends similar ball the same distance
into the sand with only, say, 40 grains OF
powder, the second ball will preserve its
form much better and penetrate very much
| further, perhaps four to six times as far.
One can take cane and smartly thrust 1t
into the sand three feet with comparatively
little effort, but he cannot throw rifle
ball that distance into pure slick with any
charge he can put in. The heavier the
charge the less easily the sand gets out OF
the way; it packs and is crushed into dust
while the ball is crushed out of shape. And
similarly, If he will slap the water with an
oar with rapid, vigorous blow he can
SILVER the oar, penetrating the watera very
short distance, while IL he strikes the water
gently the oar will penetrate the water UNI
injured. 1t is not the distance from tn,
muzzle that affects the penetration, cor
rectly stated, but the greater or less velocity
