Women az CAPITALISTS.

OF the $346, 446, 500 of 4 and ~ per
cent. national bonds held in this country
by individuals, women hold $72. 672. $50.
This by no means shows tho interest Of
the women in these bonds, for especial
ly in the eastern and middle states.
women own bank stock, or are deposit
tors in savings banks. to a very great
extent. II TO this we add the fact that
women in these days own real estate in
their own names, and at their, prac-
tically speaking, absolute disposal. we
| shall see that the women Of this country
have q large interest in it. And this is
q conservative factor in our history.
| Whatever may be said Is to the matter
Of universal suffrage for women, there is
no question that those who have proper
ty will seek to know something Of the
reason for its taxation, tho mode in
which the money Is spent, and more or
less Of the fundamental principles and
duties Of government. Nor is there any
more doubt that the intent Of this class
would be TO obtain or maintain In honest
an able and economical government.
The changes in our laws which have
given the women so much right in and
liberty of disposition Of hor own, have
been moro equitable to her than they
have been valuable in stcadying the
general ifigmont.

The Cold Brick Swindle Attempted
In New York.


VIM. johnson, apparently a Califor-
nian, is a prisoner at the police head
quarters in New York city, charged
with attempting to introduce in the
city a peculiar western swindle, the
complainant being Col. C. Ellis, No.
go South street, who is in the tow-boat
business. johnson presented to him
letters of introduction from the presi-
dent Of the National board of Stockton,
Cal, and other well known business
men in the west. The letters, doubt
less forgeries, were addressed to bank
presidents and others in the city, and
spoke OF the bearer as a man of integ-
rity and honor. Mr.. Ellis accordingly
treated his visitor with much considera-
ton. On Monday johnson called on
him and proceeded to tell a long story
Of saving the life of a burglar who had
robbed a bank in California, and who
told him where gold was buried, and
he now sought Mr.. Ellis advice, asking
him to go with him and see the gold
which the burglar vas in gratitude to
share with johnson. This made ELI.
suspicious and he made an appointment
for the next day and had detectives
ready to attend to the matter. Ellis
met johnson at the Compton house,
who showed him the gold brick, and
said he had eighteen such bricks, worth
5000 apiece, which he would sell for
$500 each. Mr.. Ellis seemed anxious
TO- close the bargain, but objection was
made as he did not have all the gold
there. Another meeting was appointed
and Mr.. Ellis left with johnson, when
the detectives arrested johnson. The
practice has been to make a gold brick.

DURING the republican caucus, last
Tuesday, Hawley referred to the cleo
ton Of the senate officers, remarking
that Gorham, in consequence OF his
conduct towards the president, in his
newspaper, was not worthy of being
chosen secretary of the senate, and be
did not propose to vote for him. When
the caucus adjourned, a number of SEN
ators commended Hawley for his utter
ance in reference to Gorham, and ex-
pressed their approval of his position.
