MINISTER CRAMER'S OFFICIAL RECEPTION AT
BERNE.
BERNE. August 29.-The speech of Mr. NJ. j.
Cramer in presenting his credentials as minister
to the United States to the president OF the Swiss
confederation consisted of the usual cordial
assurances of amity and friendship. The presi-
Dent IN the course Ct his reply. said he highly
valued these expressions of friendship, as they
arose not only from the material and moral
interests which united all civilized people, but
also from community of views relative to the
aim and form of institutions. which in both
countries were equally federal, republican and
democratic. The Swiss people. he said had true
friendship for the great republic beyond the
ocean. He expressed the sorrow and anger of
Switzerland at the act which brought her Presi-
dent to the brink of the tomb and an earnest
hope for his recovery.

CAPT. HOwGATE's GULNARE INyEsTMENT.-A
dispatch from Milwaukee says:-Prof. Ludwig
kumlien. formerly connected with the SmithsO-
MAN Institution. and who was naturalist on the
Howgate Arctic expedition is resident of this
city, having lately married Milwaukee woman.
He says that the vessel in which they sailed on
the Arctic expedition was bought by private
subscriptions, and that on the return of the ex-
petition it was sold and Capt. Howgate pocketed
the money. While it was generally supposed
that the enterprise was purely private affair.
and that Howgate footed the bills, the fact was
that most OF the crew were in government en-
Howgate himself. Prof. Kumlien also saws that
valuable cargo of furs was brought home in the
vessel, and that Capt. Howgate sold them in
bulk for $4,000 and pocketed every cent of the
proceeds. ~ ~ '-S

ONE OF THE OLD SETTLEMENTs-RECoIIEC TIoNs

A MEDICINAL SPRING-ANXIETY ABOUT THE

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
NORTHUMBERLAND, PA, August %.
have been rusticating for some DAYS near
this ancient town. which is one Of the Oldest
settlements in the land of Penn. 1t was har-
Dor of refuge for the survivors of the WYOMING
massacre. who fled oths place on the Sd of July.
177S Situated as it is at the confluence of the
North and West branches of the Susquehanna
river the scenery is of character to delight the
eye OF an artist. The Blue Hill. opposite the
town, has often been sketched and en-
graved for illustrations in magazines.
and good view of the country NAV
be had from the cemetery back of the town, in
which repOse the mortal remains of the cele-
brated DR.. Joseph Prestley who lived here and
died in 1904. Many of his descendants reside
here still. and in 1874 quite number of his adj
mirers assembled here to attend the centennial
of his discovery of oxygen
Among the local celebrities of the place is a
medicinal spring about three miles from town
called Horton Spring 1t is warmly commended
by some of the medical faculty. and many per-
sons think it equal to the Bedford Spring water;
but there are no buildings near the spring for
the entertainment OfyistOrs.
Speaking of the Wyoming massacre reminds
me that a large stone az evidently of Indian
manufacture, was found on a farm near here on
the 9th instant 1t is IL inches long inches
broad, and inches thick, and has quite sharp
edge. 1t was probably used for skinning deer
and other animals by the aborigines
Great anxiety is felt here for the recovery of
President Garfield. the democrats feeling as
strongly on the subject as republicans.

The Work in the Washington Channel.

Mr.. Fly. contractor for making the tramway
for conveying the mud and debris to be dredred
from the Washington Channel Of the Potomac
Is making excellent progress, having already
driven about three hundred plies south of the
Long bridge and nearly on a line with it. These
piles are OF black pine from the forests of Mary
hand and Virginia. and are driven at convenient
distances for laying cross-ticS and sleepers foI
the rail to be laid on. The piles are all left
standing pretty high in order TO make the tram
way as elevated as possible. They can be pulled
mp when necessary TO change the course OF the
tramway and driven again. thus making them do
double service. The growth of wild oats on the
liver bottoms this season is unusually luXuriant
almost hiding the piles already driven from view
and the stencil arising from these flats, wher
the tide is low. is almost intOlerabie. The cause
of this rank growth is thought To be the vast
quantity Of debris deposited over the flats last
winter during the ice gorge.

In connection with the ever VARYING changes

pirate name Of Garfield. The baby-sickly from
the moment of his brth-has passed, like his
illustrious namesake. during the eight weeks of
ms lie. through most sorry existence. and has
followed all the fluctuations of the PRESIDENT
condition in the. most remarkable manner
Again, on Friday night and during Saturday the
Child was rapidly sinking; the family physician
Ut. van Arnam-had lost all hope, and the
family was despairing of the tiny life when sud
denly on Saturday night ray of confidence
seemed to enter the household which began to
brighten on Sunday, and is still more promising
this morning. Let us hope that no further
untOward circumstances will throw shadow on
our hopes for the complete recovery of the two
Garields, and that both may vet enjoy great
many years OF robust health and happiness. C.
