Director of the Mint.


Notwithstanding tho refusal of Horatio
@. Burchard, Director of the Mint, to re-
sign the position, James B. Kimball has
been appointedt to it, and has assumed its
duties. Mr.. Burchard's objections will
come under review when the Senate shall
convene and appointments are considered.
The new Director of the Mint has &C
quired the scientific knowledge which, AS
far as learning goes, adapts him admirably
to the appointment given him. He is a
Massachusetts man, born at Salem in the
year 1886. His course of education in
cluded attendance at Harvard University,
the Mining School of Freiberg, Saxony,
and the University of Gottengen. When
he had completed his course at the last
named seat of learning, he took the degree
of Doctor Of Philosophy. Upon returning
to this country he found employment i'll
various geological surveys ordered by the
Federal Government and several State gov
ernments.
In the war DR.. KimbaIl had place rs As
sistant hdjutant General in the army Of the
Potomac.
His scientific attainment5 have received
ample recognition. He haa been Vice Pres
ident of the American Institute Of Mining
Eu CHEERS, and was Professor of Economic
Geology at Lehigh University, Bethlehem,
Pennsylvania, when given his present ap-
pointment. As DR.. kimball is President
of the Everitt Iron Company Of Pennsylva
mia, it is presumable that he possesses
superior business as we'll as scientific quail
fcatiops.

WHEN AM DEAD.
When am dead
And laid within my coffin, still and cold,
NY friends will gather near and place
Sweet flowers for my nervofess hands to fotdi
And whisper in my deaf, unheeding ear
OF how in life they held mo ever dear.
When am dead,
He whom my soul holds best
Will think of how yearned for just
One look or word Of tenderness,
And standing passion-rocked beside my bler'
win give With lavish hand all: that lacked
while here.
Oh! husband, friends,
If in your hearts there stands
throne enshrining me, cry with lifted hands,
Give. give me no,r the wealth Of love l crave,
And waste it not beside an open grave. +.

The steamer was finally rghted, and when
the sea calmed somewhat a thorough exam
animation was made Ii WAS found that Ia

The vessel also was badly sprung, and the
captain decided that il would be perilous to

Many of the saloon passengers received
severe bruises by being knocked about and
struck with pieces of furniture. One of the
seamen was washed overheard and drowned.
The engines were not injured in the least.
The passengers are loud ia their praise of
the captains conduct, and the competent
manner IN which he handled the steamer
during the encounter. They say their escape
was simply miraculous, and express the be-
lief that with less competent captain the
vessel would surely have foundered.
