Governor Morgan Declines the Treas
uryship.
| WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.-The name OF
Governor Morgan, for the Treasury,
was not sent to the Senate without con-
| sultation with him, nor was it sent in
| any doubt of his decision to accept it,
There were many reasons why he pre-
ferred not to undertake the proposed
labors, but the reasons the other way
seemed to him stronger, and upon an
understanding that he had overcome
his ohjections> the nomination was
made. The New York papers sent re-
porters to him, and they all concurred
in the understanding that he would not
decline. The intention of the President
to send his name to the Senate was
made known in advance, and the mat
ter was treated as public fact. He
was nominated and confirmed, but,
after all, new elements came in, and
Governor Morgan was induced to re-
consider his determination to-day. He
positively declines the Treasury port
folio. So much has this confused mat
tiers that the President has decided to
withhold action as to the Attorney
Generalship until the Treasury port
folio is settled. Nothing can be ascer-
tanned as to his second choice for the
latter place. A former rumor is there
by revived that ex-senator Howe will
be nominated for the Treasury, and that |
this action will be deferred until the |
head of the Department Of Justice is
determined upon. The strong proba-
bility, however, is that the Secretary OF
the Treasury will come from New York,
md that Judge Folger has been ten
iered the position. To-morroW's de-
1elopments are looked for with much
interest.

Fatal Shooting.

PLACERvILLE, CAL, October GA
fatal shooting ARRAY occurred at Nash
vile last Sunday, between B. E. Carter
and James Maginnis, an old resident.
The two men had a few unpleasant
words in J. c. Heald's store, when Ma
ginnis went to the rear of the building,
took up his rifle, went out upon the
street and dared Carter out: Carter
was then unarmed, but made his way
across the street, procured pistol and
both fired simultaneously at distance
of about sixty feet. The second shot
of Carter took deadly effect in the left
breast Of Maginnis.

LONDON, Oct. 26.-The Times, dis
cussing Secretary Blaine's letter to
Minister Lowell with reference to the
Panama canal and the Monroe Doctrine,
says: The weighty nature of the in
terest of America to the use of any
inter-oceanic canal through the Isthmus
of Panama will be readily admitted,
but Blaine pushes the point too far
when he would have the world take it
for granted that no government but his
own and that of Columbia has any
claim to be consulted in regard to the
neutrality of the work. The propo-
sition is far from self-evident, and it is
unfortunately not supported in the
letter by arguments which will make
it acceptable to the European powers,
and least of all to England.

AN AMERICAN VIEW.

New YORK, Oct. 26.-The Tim es
says Of Blaine's letter: 1t seems to us
that the ground upon which Blaine
now puts the American position is i'm
pregnable, and that any action OF the
European powers seeking to substitute
their political guarantee for ours may
fairly be considered unfriendIy. The
case would be somewhat analogous to
our furnishing a guarantee Of neutrality
to Egypt, in case it had been asked,
and we had the physical force to estab-
lish it, fer the Suez canal. The in
stincts and the good sense Of our coun-
try have always retained it from in
truding in any way into the agree
ments of European powers.

One Vast Grogshop.

Bear me witness if ] eAaggerate when
| say that the country is one vast grog-
shop, to which nearly half a million OF
it's youth are yearly introduced, and over
whose threshold sixty thousand are an
nually carted to drunkard's grave. The
streets of our cities echoed to the shouts
and oaths of drunken jewellers, from
whom society seeks protection through
police regulation: and within howell and
mansion alike, not entirely smothered
either by physical fear or social pride, Is
heard the sound of insane violence amt
wailing. What river is there along our
coast, what harbor upon whose shores q
city stands, whose waters have not closed
over the bodies of those who, victims 10
this traffic, were flung by violent hands
from pier OF bridge. or madly sought be-
meath their silent surface forgctfulness of
woes or wretchedness too pregnant to be
borne9 Within the darkness of dungeons
and along our highways may be seen
wrecks of former beauty and manhood
wrought by this traffic; and now and
then one, as miracle, after long years
of misery and abasement, rescued there
from, lifts up his voice in public, and
makes men aghast with the recital of his
woes and degration.

them, among which, it is alleged, were
number of promissory notes. The whole
thing has a queer look, and the question
which agitates newspaper men is where
has all the money he has made in the last
quarter of a century, amounting to mil
lions, gone to- Perhaps it is one Of those
mysteries no fellow can find out, but the
curiosity of the natural man will prompt
him to find out the undiscovered channel
through which it flows. Looking at and
talking with Mr.. Beecher, who is now
more spiritually minded. reverent and
large hearted than ever before in his life,
the mystery deepens. That there is a
mystery connected with the mans life and
his daily expenditure no one can doubt.
Perhaps when the curtain is lifted, it
will increase the charity which the world
is beginning to feel for great sorely
stricken man.

Medicinal Qualities of Buttermilk

For summer beverage there can be
nothing more healthy and strengthening
than buttermilk. 1t is excellent for weak
or delicate stomachs, and far better as a
dinner drink than coffee, tea or water,
and, unlike them. does not retard, but
rather aids digestion.
A celebrated physician once said that
if every one knew the value of buttermilk
as drink, it would be more freely par
| taken of by persons who drink SO ex-
cessively of other beverages; and further
compared its effects upon the system to
the cleaning out of q cook stove that has
been clogged up with ashes that have
sifted through. filling up every crevice
and crack, saying that the human system
is like the stove, and collects and gathers
refuse matter that can in no way be ex-
terminated from the system SO etfcctually
as by drinking buttermilk. 1t is also
specific remedy for indigestion, soothes
and quiets the nerves. and is very somno-
lent to those who are troubled with sleep.
lessness.
There is something strange in the fact
that persons who are fond of buttermilk
never tire of singing its praises, while
those who are not fond it never weary of
wondering how some people can drink it.
So far as is possible, people should over
come their aversion to it, and learn to
drink it for health's sake.
One gentleman of our acquaintance is
so extremely fond of it that we knew
him one time to drink about three glass
es, then set his glass down with thud,
exclaiming earnestly, as he smacked his
lips That's food and raiment BOTH
While another buttermilk enthusiast
made the statement once that where the
liver has become lifeless from torpidity
and inaction, and is too dead to perform
it's functions, buttermilk will cause a new
one to grow in. Whatever exaggerated
statements may have been made concern
ing buttermilk, its medical properties
cannot be overrated, and it should be
more freely used by all who can get it.
Every one who values good health should
drink buttermilk every day in warm
weather, and let tea, coffee and water
alone.
For the benefit of those who are not
already aware of it, l may add, that i'll
the churning the first process of diges-
ton is gone through, making it one of

perties that readily assimilate with it,

Startling Statistics Of the Cost OF Funerals.

\ young English physician, DIR. Charles
w. Purdy, recently delivered All address
before the Chicago Medical Society in all
vocacy of cremation, in which he made
some striking statements as to the cost
of funerals. This argument, if not the
strongest which can be urged in favor Of
cremation, may we'll be used to strengthen
protest against the wicked and ridicu-
lous extravaganza which almost univers-
ally characterizes the funerals of the pres
ent day Following are some OF the COM
parsons by which DR.. Purdy sought to
show what a burden is laid upon society
bv the burial of the dead: Zone and one
fourth times more money is expended an
nually in funerals in the United States
than the Government expends for public
school purposes. Funerals cost two and
one half times more money annually than
would buy the grounds and buildings ofall
the universities and colleges in America
The amount of money expended on funer-
ais in the United States, if saved for a
fraction over four years, would equal the
total sum disbursed by our Government
for pensions during the last twenty years. .
Funerals cost this country in 1850 enough
money to pay the liabilities of all the COM
mercial failures in the United States dur
ing the same year, and give each bank
rupt a capital of $500 with which to
resume business. Funerals cost annually
more money than the value of the COM
bined gold and silver yield of the United
States in the year 1880. The population
of the Christian world, i'll round num-
bers. is about 400, 600. 900 people, a little
less than one-third the population of the
entire earth At the average cost OF bury
inc the dead in the United States. the
Christian world would expend annually
for funerals $500, 000 900, at a safe esti-
mate. Let this annual expenditure OF
money be saved with its accrued interest
at q per cent, for u tritle over twenty
| wears. and il would pay Of the combined
| National debts of the world These 1iS-
| ures do not include the enormous sums
invested in burial grounds and expended
| in tombs and monuments nor the loss
from depreciation of property adjacent to
| cemeteries.
