Matt Carpenters estate when all settled,
has LETT Mrs. Carpenter and family S150,000
in money. His life insurance amounted to
$40, 900, Congress gave Mrs Carpenter one year
OF the senator's salary, 5000. Mr.. Carpenter
owned for number of years stock in the
Milwaukee Sentinel. This he had vaInly
sought to SELL or almost give away. When

solidated this stock went up so the estate
realized S25 600 from the sale OF this interest
In the sale of a portion of the law library of
the late senator s., 900 was realized. Congress
will probably purchase the records and briefs
of the library These are valued at $8,000
Five hundred volumes of the library were
kept out and retained for the use OF Paul
Carpenter. the only son of the great lawyer,
Property in and about Milwaukee was sold
so as to realize nearly $4,000. Mr.. Carpen-
ter never tried to save any money So long
as be had his health he could always earn a
very large income He said there was no use

Prospective Change in the Treasury.

Special to New York Tribune.
There is also reason to believe that there
will be another vacancy in the Treasury De-
partment soon, and that x-Representative
Burrows, of Michigan, will be appointed to
it. 1t has been understood for some time
that Secretary Folger is dissatisfied with the
manner in which Second Comptroller Upton
has conducted the affairs of his Office, and
while it is not known that Mr.. Upton has
been requested to retire, it is pretty certain
that his resignation would be very acceptable
to the Secretary of the Treasury. A friend
of the President said yesterday that the Presi-
dent was quite strongly OF opinion that
Mr.. Upton ought to retire, and was ready to
act Immediately upon any suggestion from
Secretary Folger looking to that end. 1t is
understood that the subject was mentioned
in the cabinet meeting Yesterday, but Secre-
tary Folger was not present, owing to illness

Hayes in 1877,

Mrs. Cougar was recalled, and denied that
she wanted at one time to talk to Mayor Nc

of evidence regarding the reputation of Mr..

such evidence, claiming that the character of
Mandler had not been called in question.
After argument by Judge Coffroth and Colo

evidence. Judge Gregory and John A. Rice
then testified that Mandler's character for
truth and veracity was good. The court then

A New Order Of Things.

Every intelligent planter knows that
within the past few years a new era has
opened for the South, in the rapid and
profitable development of its agricultural
and manufacturing resources. It's indus
tries have been multiplied and their vol
urne increased in such a degree that
new demand for motive power has
sprung up, especially in such branches
of production as require light power to
take the place of the slow, inadequate
system of horse and mule power which
has prevailed for so many years.
The old methods are wholly unsuited
to the new order of things, of which in
creased production, larger profits, and
the adoption of improved processes are
characteristic features.
To meet this prevailing want, the
Bookwalter Steam Engine has been pro-
duced, and is especially adapted for use
on plantations, Cor such purposes as GIN
ming cotton, grinding corn, and many
other purposes that viii suggest them
selves to any one who desires to keep up
with the new order of things and make
a profit on his product.
This Engine gives the maximum OF
service at the minimum of expense. 1t
has an upright boiler, constructed with
special reference to economy in fuel,
safety, durability, and freedom from
leakage. A defect frequently observed
in upright boilers-namely the burning
out of tubes, and leakage at the point of
insertion at the crown sheet-has been
carefully guarded against in the construc-
ton of the Bookwalter Engine. Every
detail of its mechanism has been made
the subject Of diligent study and expert
ment, and it is offered to the public in
the full confidence, based upon its sue
cessful use by thousands of persons in
all parts Of the country, that it meets in
the most perfect manner every require
ment of an effective, practical motive
power. .
All working parts, including. also
CRATES. bed plate, door and bonnet to
boiler, are made in duplicate, so that in
case of breakage the owner can get a
new part and replace it without having
TO go to machine-shop with the Engine.
The aim of the makers of this we'll
known Engine, Messrs. James Leffel &
Co., Of Springfield, Ohio, has been to
give perfect efficiency to the working
parts, producing but few sizes and build
ing them in the most thorough manner
in short, to combine effectiveness with
simplicity, durability and cheapness.
Every boiler and engine is tested by
steam pressure to over twice the work
ing pressure, and run, before leaving
the works, to insure it's perfect working
in the hands of the purchaser.
They. are easily operated, and that
they give the best of satisfaction is fully
proven by the fact that over three thou
sand of them are IN use in the United
States. many of them successfully driv-
ing cotton gins, cotton presses, cane and
corn mills in the Southern States.
Tho manufacturers are always pleased
to furnish all information regarding this
Engine to&ny one asking for the same.
