THE super6uous proposition is before Con-
gress to m axe the Census Bureau perman-
ent. As the work of preparing the census
taken four years ago, is long way from
completion, and at the'present rate of pro-
gress not likely to be completed much if any
before 1890, it is in the nature of a sarcasm
to propose, as the Senate does, to make the
bureau permanent The end of the nine
teenth century is likely to be reached before
the Census of 1850 is finished.

tain the mode of treatment in vogue in
private asylums, and it any such cases
are known or believed to exist to send
them to state hospitals for the insane,
where they can receive humane and
proper treatment. The letter further
informs them that if they have any rea-
son to believe any such insane are con-
cealed and badly treated they should

The American banker association,
in session at Saratoga, has been giving
considerable of the time to "a discus
sion of panics and bank failures. One
of the notable papers was read by Ly-
man j. Gage, the Chicago banker, who
urged as remedy for panics the keep
ing Of cash reserves considerably larger
than rs per cent, repeal of the usury
laws, and the adoption of uniform rules
as to loaning freely in times Of distrust.
1t is shown that in such times of dis
trust, when those who have money are
locking it up, and extensive loans are
necessary for strengthening the different
branches of trade, the banks draw in on
their loans and discounts and on the
other hand, when trade is good and
times are easy, money is easily obtain
able. Mr.. Gage takes the ground,
which has every appearance of being
reasonable, that the practice should be
more nearly the reverse-that the re-
serves should be larger, and loans more
easily obtainable in times of general
distress,

THE Buffalo Courier, not satisfied
with the vindication of things accom-
plished by "Gen.'' King has produced
another. 1t, however, resembles Kings
so much that.it seem hardly worth while
to publish it. 1t does admit the asylum
business, but denies that any more force
was used in putting the woman there
than was necessary to make her go. We
don't remember that the clergymen' S
association said that there was. 1t
takes considerable force to put an able
bodied woman in the asylum, if she
knows it. The vindication of Grover is,
jim short that Maria was about the same
kind of a citizen that he was. This is
not brilliant, but perhaps it will do.

THE recent earthquake in the east

THE recent earthquake in the east
was described in the telegraphic dis
patches in a highly sensational manner
and the people of the west were led to
believe that it was no ordinary shaking
up. The accounts swelled in their SEN
sationalism the farther west they were
sent and the Boston Advertiser in COM
menting on this fact says: According
to the Geographic reports the recent
earthquake was not felt in the west; but
the reports of the western papers tend
to remove this impression, and seem to
show that the intensity of Seismic cat
aclysm" became greater as the news of
it moved toward the Pacific. Here there
were ten people who did not know there

able building, might perhaps have roll
ed a man off a sofa but by the time it
reached Chicago the poor wretch was
thrown from the sofa across the room,
while in Omaha all the furniture was
piled upon him and in San Francisco
only faint traces of his remains were to
be found. The great danger discovera-
BILE in this curious phenomenon lies in
the possibility that the shock may make
the circuit of the globe and return to

it does the Chicago newspaper correspon-
dents had better be chained up for the

LIEUTENANT GREELY has been inter-
viewed in the matter of the alleged
cannibalism of his party at Cape Sabine
and says that if there was any of 1t, it
did not come under his notice. He says
that men living for months upon shrimps
and partially out of their heads by rea-
son of famine, might very naturally COM
NIT excuses of this kind. As to private
Henry, the full report Of his case was
forwarded to the war department. He
was shot after due trial by court martial
for stealing provisions from the COM
mon stock. 1t was not his first offense
and he had been warned of his fate if
the act was repeated. He said that a
prompt and terrible punishment was abb
solutely necessary to save the lives of
the party. Henry was shot on the 9th
of June. Doubtless in palliation of the
poor mans offense it may be truthfully
said that he was himself insane from
hunger and had lost all control of his
actions. But situated as the Greedy
party was it was probably necessary
to impress upon the mind Of every man
in the party that the lives Of the whole
command could not be imperilled in
that way. Henry, aceordingto Greely's
account, had taken the last time two
pounds of bacon and had made himself
sick by over-eating.
