Savings banks for employees are excel
lent features of some of the British rail
ways. That of the Caledonian Railway
contains about $3OO,O 900 of the savings of
the company's servants, and that of the
North British Railway over 5000, 900,
making more than half a million dollars
belonging to the employees of the two
companies only. which is earning A per
cent. interest, or at least 1 per cent. more
than the ordinary rate. The RGilaeGy
Age thinks that it is safe to say
that these great accumulations were
made without any appreciable eff
fort or sacrifice on the part of
the depositors. The discontinuance Of
the glass of beer or the cigar will make
a wonderful difference in a mans finan-
cial condition after while, if the money
thus saved is put at work in the bank.
Moreover, the man with money laid up
works with far more spirit and hope
than he who lives from hand to mouth,
spending everything as he goes. Our
railway managers would do a great
thing for the service if they would estab-
lish a savings bank system, and get their
men into the habit of making regular
use of its opportunities.

vOking Hayes order prohibltory Of

he proposes simply to see that every
employee performs thoroughly the duties
assigned him without inquiring how he
employs his time afterward.

Discussing the late suicide of Cornelius
J. Vanderbilt, an exchange says it recalls
a mass of public scandals, which for a
long time the Vanderbilt family have
been trying to live down with exemplary
pertinacity. He was the particularly off
sheep Of a by no means white feeced
flock. He was left in the old Commo-
dOre's will the interest on the sum of
two hundred thousand dollars, which,
considering the debts he had managed to
accumulate, was hardly doing the hand
some thing by him. Then came the
grand family squabble among the chill
dTen Of the deceased Representative
American, and proceedings were insti
tuted to break the will. 1t was fight
in which shreds of the COmmodOres
reputation physically, mentally and NOR
ally were submitted to a microscopic ex-
animation, in which every dirty stain and
blotch was placed before the eyes of the
public in all the hideOusness of realistic
description Of a disreputable life. But
the will was sustained, though there
were preparations for an appeal. From
this contest Cornelius ]. stood sloof
He had an objects claim that William
H., the principal heir under the will,
had promised him 81 900. coo for his for
bearance. AS William II. did not re-
member this promise, Cornelius ]. went
TO law on his own account But con-
venient friends Of the family interferred,
and a settlement was effected in May,
1879. with all the warning branches of
the family by which Cornelius ]. receiv-
ed handsome income from a sum
placed in the hands of a trustee. He
had won his money, but it came too
late to benefit him. Epileptic fits left
but little Of what was originally mind
Of the lowest grade.

Won't our Northern Radical cOntem-
poraries please be kind enough to let up
on their disgusting twaddle about "Bour-
bon trickery in South CarOlina2' Messrs.
Chamberlain, Moses, Patterson ct. al,
have given the country ample and con-
elusive evidence that all the trickery
which has ever been committed in that
State since the formation of the Union
was not comparable TO that of its Re
publican despOllers when they were in
power. Besides this, the long record of
Radical frauds in the country, from the
year 1860 to the present day, including
the stealing of the Presidency for Hayes,
ought to impress the Republicans with
the truth of the adage that those who live
in glass houses should never throw stones.

of the extra Representative TO which
the mother of modern Presidents is enti-
tied under the late census.

of New York, which on the 1st of Janu-

extinguished from the sinking fund in

ton. The contingency of very proba-
bic increase in the present Indebtedness
is not, however, taken account of in this
calculation.

Henry Mandsley, the great English
authority on the mind and its diseases,
SAYS that insanity is the almost inevitable
result Of exclusive devotion to money
getting. It may not show itself in the
first generation, but it is almost sure to
break out in the second. The suicide of
the son and namesake Of Cornelius Van
derbIt is probably very fair Illustra-
ton Of this assertion. He was never of
entirely sound mind, and his self-de-
struction was only the end of a diseased
aud disordered mental career.

The Quiet and determined way in
which President Arthur has tOftified
himself with a stalwart Cabinet, and has
strengthened the position of his faction
of the Republican party, speaks well for
him as a political strategist- Neverthe-
less it will not make the conservative
faction any the less determined to wage
relentless warfare with him, and if the
Democrats are careful they can success
fully throw themselves into the breach
and whip out both parties in detail.

GROUND TO DEATH BY GRANITE.
Fearful Fate OF Samuel Blyther at the
HallOwell Quarrtes.

A terrible accident occurred at the HALO
we'll quarries Monday forenoon, resulting in
the death of one of the workmen named Sam
uel Blyther. A crew of men had swung
block OF granite, weighing three or four tons,
to a position near another smaller piece Of
stone. The large block rested on skid', but
not firmly. Blyther went in between the two
pieces of granite, to adjust the foundation,
and while thus employed the large block fell
over upon him, grinding him down against the
other stone. His mates sprang to the der
rick handles, and hastily hoisted the huge
mas. off the unfortunate man. The right
side of the body was crushed to a jelly. The
ribs were shattered, and the pieces OF bone
forced into the great internal organs In all
directions. Drs. Martin Of Augusta and
Nutting of Hallowell were summoned I'M
mediately after the accident, but their Skin
was of no avail. Death was inevitable, ana
the poor fellow was taken to his residence
where after an hour Of agony he expired.
Blvtber was about As years of age, sober and
industrious. He leaves wife and three
children. Unlike most of the workmen al
rho ouarr,. his life was not insured.
