IT is not always that neglect Of fnanciai
matters for ten years insures so satisfactory
an audit as that which is now progressing in
The Uuited States Treasury As a matter of
fact an absolute balance is generally consid-
cred commercial necessity, though it un-
fortunately happens that the modern bank
cashier sometimes fails to come up to that
stand. and he never by any chance in the
matter of accounting for few handred mil
lions of dollars has an excess of cent.
There has been an individualized penny
running through government accounts for
some years past, and it has always been a
mystery how it got into and remained in the
national finances. We know all about IL
now; it is an excess in the interest tellel's
account, and is one of those things which no
fellow can understand, beyond the fact tina.
somebody has taken one cents worth of in
terest in national finances more than he was
expected to do. The name of that patriot
should be registered.

An apparatus for the instantaneous kill
ing of animals by an electric discharge has
been invented in England. The animal to
be killed is placed on large iron plate fas-
tened upon the floor With this plate is
connected the negative pole of an electrical
condenser, formed of alternate layers of tin
foil and tissue paper soaked in parafine.
This is charged from an ordinary coil to its
full capacity of a hundred micro farads,"
and is TO be discharged at an electro-motive
force of Is, 600 ''volts,' producing one-inch
spark. The victims head and its feet and
legs being wet with salt water, the brass
battery and has All Insulating handle IS ap-
piled to the animals forehead, and as soon
as the contact is effected Instant death en-
sues. This method Of putting an end to au-
imal life, either for butchering purposes or
the killing of worn-out beasts of burden, is
far more humane than the clumsy and often
needlessly cruel means employed. If some
such plan were substituted for our present
system of execution by hanging, the horrible
scenes which sometimes occur owing to the
blunders of unframed executioners would
be avoided.

THE PRESS.
TUESDAY MORNING. APRIL 10.
Opera-Bouffe in the City Building

SA0-oOuliS III Un6 OlVy DuhNtAhS'
Our brand-new Mayor is as amusing as
Artemus Wards kangaroo. Last night he
called the Aldermen and Councilmen into
Joint convention and lectured the lower
board because it refused to adopt the salary
bill. He told the unruly boys in front of the
desk that they had no right to refuse to
adopt the report Of committee. He then
went ON to accuse this journal of being the
representative of the lower board, intimated
that the PRESS had iusulted the city in op-
posing him and using the word 'shench-
men, and called upon the convention to
vindicate the outraged majesty of the Mayor.
BY this time the convention was on the
broadgrin. The Mayors remarks were i'm
pertinent and impudent, but so unwittingly
funny that resentment was swallowed up in
laughter Even the aspiring councilman
from Ward Four, who knows as little as the
Mayor about the meaning of ''henchmen,"
was struck with the humor of the sit
uation and did not offer the resolution GEN.
surfing the Press that he had so carefully
prepared. No response was made TO Mr..
behring's remarks, for the Councilmen
were choking with laughter. After stand
ing for few moments in sulen dignity the
Mayor declared the convention adjourned,
and withdrew to his room like Highland
chief or one of Bo-Peep's sheep, with his tail
behind him.
1t was the most amusing convention of
the two boards ever held, and strongly sug-
gestive of scene from comic opera.

ANOTHER reporter has been visiting Gen
eral Sherman, and the result of the inter-
view is stated in the following abrupt SEN
fences. Sherman said his father was an adj
mirer of Tecumseh, the Indian chief, te-
cause he tried to band all the Indians on the
continent together; in fact, GOOD union man.
Hence the Generals name. Grandfather
came from Connecticut. Is related to the
Beecher family and w. NJ. Evarts through
the Sherman root. Is one of IL children.
Was brought up by Tom Ewing. When
boy went to Washington, peeped through
the White House pickets and saw General
Jackson taking his walk in the grounds with
staff in his hand, lean, slender figure, low
chest, long face, and big brosd-brlmmed hat
Considers Jackson to have been a man of
undoubted military ability. Has seen JEFF
ferson Davis since the war. Doesn't like
him. Didn't want to shake hands with
him. Always did look ON him as a domi-
neering, unpatriotic, willful fellow, afiiict-
ing his countrymen with mischief. Sup
poses Lee the ablest general on the Confed-
crate side. Admires General Joe Johnston
for the clean way in which he made his re.
treats and cleaned up his property after his
battles. Thinks John Logan a first-rate
commander, fighting man. hearty man,
no coward nor trimmer; but is beset with an
atfiiction for going to the rear after a battle
and making speeches, like Frank Blair.
Knew Georgia geographically well before
the war. Thinks that the great thing in war
is TO know your ground well. Doesn't think
he was ever discouraged in his life. Does
not think that his march through Georgia to
the sea was as great as his marching from
the sea to Joe Johnston.

WHEN the salary bill was reported from
the committee it was at once amended on
motion of Democratic Alderman; his mo-
ton being supported by the Democratic
members of the upper board who served on
the committee. When the bill reached the
lower board motion to amend it was made
by Democratic Councilman-and some of
the Democratic members of the city govern
ment have the effrontery to condemn Re-
publican members of the City Council for re-
fusing to adopt the bill as reported.

TEE English police appear to have un-
earthed conspiracy of formidable charac-
ter, and to have laid their hands upon the
ringleaders in movement directed toward
the destruction of public buildings by the
use of explosives, by way Of terrorizing and
coercing the British government into max
ing further concessions to the Irish malcon-
tents. 1t seems that the men arrested spoke
with an American accent, and that Ameri-
can money was found in their possession.
This will probably lead TO further demands
that the United States undertake to suppress
Land League meetings and Fenian journals
demands that the United States will re-
fuse with great promptness.

In an article upon "Type-writing and
Photography" published in Harper's Ba-
Ear in the series Chow Skilled Work Remu-
nerates Women" the writer says: "The
best private secretary is one who can write
shorthand and can operate a typewriter.
The young woman who can write shorthand
and operate a typewriter is in demand to-
day, and she can reasonably expect to earn
from s7oo to 5000 year, If, of course, she
has had good common-school ucatlon.

THIS is the kind of weather in which the
impulsiye and imprudent person diyests
himself of his overcoat or of his heavy fan
nels, because he feels SO uncomfortable
warm, and is determined to accommodate
himself to the meteorological variability of
this extremely versatile season. The judi
cious and experienced man knows better
than that. He knows that is impossible
to count upon the vagaries Of American
weather at this time of the year, and in or
der to guard against the danger Of
being caught by frost with his
fannels off and his overcoat at home,
he submits with philosophic equa-
nimity to the lesser inconvenience Of being
superfuously calorifc.

Those European Socialists are such par
ticularly desperate and INSCRIPTIONS per-
sons, that the action of the Danish govern
ment in breaking up the Socialistic Congress
at Copenhagen is not to be wondered at
But 1t is not by any such arbitrary measures
that Socialism is to be suppressed, and to
break up meeting is very much like getting
rid of symptom by way of extirpating a
disease. If they cannot discuss their griey-
ances at Copenhagen the Socialists wild 60
elsewhere, and if they are prevented from
celebrating openly they win do it in secret.
Ii Socialism is to be cured at all, it must be
by other and widely different means.

THE attempt to work up Tilden boom
meets with little encouragement in the
South. The Charleston News and Courier
says that sit is quite possible that Mr.. Til
denis health may have improved great
deal, and it is equally possible that he may
entertain hopes Of the next Democratic NOM
nation, but he is as little likely to get II as
he is to develop the muscular force of the
eminent 'slugger,' Mr.. Sullivan of Boston. !"
A similar view is taken by the Vicksburg
Herald. 1t considers that "the re-entry Of
Mr.. Tilden into active politics, except in the
capacity of mastery counsellor and assist
ant to the most eligible candidate for the
residential nomination, whoever he may
be, would, to put it mildly, be very unfortu-
nate.'

In MemOriam.

Charles E., eldest son of w. c..
and Elizabeth J. Sharp, departed
this life Saturday night, March 10,
1883, aged sixteen years, lacking 8
days.
For a considerable time he had
been an invalid-his disease baf-
fling medical skill--and for weeks
before his death little or no hope
was entertained for his recovery.
But, though afflicted in body, his
mind continued clear almost TO the
last moment.
Charlie was a dutiful son and a.,
pious boy. Death found him fully
prepared. At his own suggestion,
he was baptized, responding with
great clearness and readiness to the
questions propounded.
He was fully aware of the critic
al nature of his disease and spoke
calmly both Of living and dying.
Though preferring life, death SEEM
ed totally disarmed of its terrors.
He conversed with as much COM
posture as if he had been only de-
parting on brief visit to a friend.
Almost his last words was thrice
repeated attempt to quote the words
of Jesus Nevertheless, not my
will, but Thine be done"
The members of the M. e. Sur
day School, with which he had
been connected, and large numbers
ofother friends attended the funeral
services, and received with pathet-
ic interest the account of his tri-
umphant death.
But few months ago an oldest
sister passed away in similar tri-
umph.
The deeply bereaved family sor-
row not as those who have no hope.
0, that all young people, wheth-
er living or dying, would follow
Christ Then would life be flied
with substantial sweetness and
hope, and death be stripped Of his
power to terrify. s.
