THE STATE TREASURY.

The Columbia correspondent of the Ners
and Courier reports that at the close of bus
mess on the 31st of December, the State
treasury had at its command twice as large
an amount of money as it has had at any
similar date for many years. The state
ment shows a total of S4l4, ,222OO, of which
amount $15,796.44 is to the credit of the
sinking fund commission, and $4,727.9S to
the credit of the board of agriculture. The
State is therefore well in funds for the dis
bursements Of 1885. While the collection
of taxes in the fall and winter was not as
complete as it was year previously-When
the closeness of collections was phenome-
nal and the subject of general comment-still
it was large and satisfactory, and proved
that Notwithstanding the hard times the
people were paying their public as well as
their private debts with promptness and

THE WEATHER.

Last Saturday was cold and most disagreeable
day in Yorkville. The weather was cloudy, the
ground frozen hard and the thermometer marked
II degrees. About dark light rain commenced
falling, which changed to sleet and on Sunday
morning the trees were covered and the ground
was coated with ice. The temperature moderated
on Sunday afternoon, the sleet melted away and
rain fell on Sunday night and through the day
on Monday, rendering the streets of Yorkville,
which are noted for their tirmness, disagreeably
muddy. Reports from various points in the

STEVENS ARp BUCHANAN.
Their Partisan Asperities Forgotten In
the EVENING Of Their Lives.

the Evening Of Their Lives.
From the Lancaster Intelligencer.
There has been a great deal written
and said Of the personal relations OF
Stevens and Buchanan and much Of II
Is fanciful. No man was in better
condition to know this than DIR. Car
penter. In their early lives their
paths seldom crossed Buchanan's
active service az the bar was over
when Stevens came here. Stevens
practice was had i'm the local courts
when Buchanan was in public life,
and Stevens became q commanding
figure in Federal politics after Blu
chanan retired from the Presidency.
During the war period Stevens, In
common with many Laneastrians,
made unkind and unfair references to
Mr.. Buchanan, born Of prejudice and
passion, and one Of Stevens charges
in Congress he afterwards withdrew.
There are TO De found some sharp ref
erences to Stevens public career in
the Buchanan correspondence.
IL Is true, as often related, that they
met for the last time at DIR. Carpen-
teF's second wedding in July 1856, at
the residence Of DIR. A. NJ. ROhrer, in
Mountville. but the popular story that
Buchanan turned his back upon Ste
vens' pToffered hand is not true. Mr..
Stevens was In the parlOr when Mr.
Buchanan entered. The latter
walked across the room and Mr.. Ste
vens, thinking he was advancing to-
ward him, made q motion as II to
speak. But Mr. Buchanan, who, as
Il wsll-knOWn, had one near and one
far-sighted eve and held his head TO
one side, failed to see Mr.. Stevens at
all, and his attention being directed
elsewhere, they did not meet and
each was engaged during the occasion
with friends
As they grew older each expressed
to his family physician concern for
and good will toward the other. Mr..
Stevens spoke with much sympathy
Of Mr. Buchananis alfiietion, and one
day the ex-President said 10 DIR. c L:

he would come down 10 his gate and

another interviewed, and the meeting
never came OF. The iReident, how

to their mutual feelings.
