Venient as we'll as very silly for the
House to advise the sbrogstion Of the

views, and even those YieRs, if President
Arthur has any views on the subject, he

there is something in our diplomatic

The Tennessee Treasury.

Nashville, 5.-The announcement
from the state capitol, this morning,
of a deficit in the state treasury pro-
duced a sensation. The following
is the report of the legislative joint
select committee to settle with the
comptroller and treasurer. They
report they visited the Office of the
treasurer and upon inquiry found
the treasurer away from the eapi-
tol and had been for two days, and
they were not advised when he will
return. His clerk states that he
cannot 90 into a settlement OF the
treasurer's account till his return.
They also have information from
his bondsmen, or some Of them,
that the condition of the treasury
is such that they feel justified in
recommending that the workings of
the treasury be stopped until an eX-
animation can be had.
The Senate adopted the following
joint resolution:
Whereas, The Senate has reason

Washington, 5. Democrats who
eagerly voted fer the civil service bill,
will, it is asserted, fnd q wsy TO evsde
its provisions, and fill the offices with
Democrats, in case they come into pos
session of the administration. There is
little doubt the President will sign the
measure, IS be expressed in his last an
nual message his approval of the same
bill then pending in the Senate. while
he believed the nation had outgrown the
provisions which the constitution has es-
tablished for filing minor Offices IN the
public service, and that there could be nc
perfect reform action without constitu-
tionsl amendment, still he thought there
might be some improvement OF the sys.

Grants Estimate of Gambstta.

Washington, 5.-General Grant ex-
poets to remain here this week with
General Beale OF Gambetta he says
IF Gam betts's death had occurred five
years ago, when Mcmahon was Presi
dent, I doubt if the republic would have
survived the shock, but now It is different.
He was q remarkable man, and at the
time of which l speak. seemed 10 be the
only person in France who was abba
to rise to the requirements of the occa-
sion. Mcmahon was q good old soldier
and did what he honestly thought was
the best fer the people of France. He did
not think, however, that a republican
government was the best for the people
and for that reason made an attempt and
used eveIy means in his power to defeat
it. He had large army scattered over
the country differed by men who thought
as he did. He exercised the highest au-
th GRITTY in prOroguing the legislature and
dismiEsing officials and appointing others
in their places. These offices could not
be filled by election again until he should
name the day. He postponed calling gu
election rs long as possible. and finally
wnen it was called gave instructions that
every officer, civil and military to use
every influence In their power to see that
republicans were rot elected. Very few
nations would have submitted to be over
ridden in that way, as the French people
did then. The people OF this country
would not stand it at all. Of course pub
lie feeling ran high and an eruption wss
imminent at any mOmen', but every day
Gambetta Issued his paper
which went to all parts Of
France, and was read everywhere, ad-
vising moderation. From day to day he
wrote, telling the people to be quiet and
abide the result of the tallot-box, telling
them to say nothing and 90 nothing. but
simply go to the election, deposit their
vote and then 60 home. At the same
time he was counselling quiet he was
every day indicting McMshon for his
ou.rsges upon the liberty Of the people.
The result WAS the masses followed the
advice of Gambetts, committed no vic.
lence, but went quietly to the polls and
carried the election. In France it ia al
ways absolutely fair count and fair
election, so when republicans put in
more votes than their opponents, they
ccme into power in government, Now
the republic is safe in France because
they have good president. Should the
time come again when another Mcmahon
should be president France will need
another Gsmbetta. Now, while he may
not be necessary, the death OK such a
man is q very great loss to any nation or
| age,

A Whole Family Killed by Train.

CINCINNATI, July "a horrible and
fatal accident occurred on the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton railway at Wilton place
crossing, just north of Spring Grove GEM
etery, at 9:15 tonight, whereby six per-
sons were instantly killed. The Thunder
bolt express coming south on the New
York, Pennsylvania & Ohio railway, due
here at $50 and half-hour behind time,
and running fast to make up time, struck
huckster wagon in which were a family
of six persons and driver. Every one
except William Bertsch, the driver, was
killed. Bertsch escaped with serious,
though not fatal injuries. The wagon was
broken to spl1nters. The family were
that of huckster, Mr.. Henry
Kracke, and they were goiag to their farm
seven miles from Wilton place. Mr..
Kracke had been living on the farm for the
benefit of his health, while the family lived
in the city. Tho names of the killed are
Mr.. Kracke and his wife and four children
John, aged nineteen; Annie, sixteen; Mag.
gle, thirteen, and Lizzie, seven. The bod
les of the victims were thrown in fragment:
in the grass by the roadside, where they
were picked up by the light of lantern;
and were brought to the city. Mrs. Kracke':
head was severed from her body and al
the victims of the disaster were horribly
mutilated. The engine was so besmearec
with blood that it was sprinkled with foul

Gen. ROSecranS.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.


CHICAGO, July 4.-Gen. w. S. Rosecrans,
member of congress from San Francisco,
arrived in the city yesterday from Wash
ington and left in the afternoon with some
friends for Lake Geneva to cool off and
escape a Chicago Fourth of July. The
general was seen by a reporter at the
Sherman but was not in any mood to talk
politics. In fact he said he had been for
some time past in close attendance on his
sick wife and had heard very
little about what was going on.
Ha thought the Democratic party was
going to carry Ohio this year and elect
Judge HoadIy, and that would be a big
step towards electing the next president.
A Democratic victory il Ohio this fall
would encourage the Democrats and would
be very hard for the Republicans to
explain away. The general said it would
be time enough to talk about the speaker
ship when the time came, but he thought
the party would make a wise selection.
He failed, however,to state what he thought
would be wise selection. In regard to
the nominations he said he would talk
about that when he returned from Wiscon-
sin, but that it was too warm to go into
such questions now.
