InleDendPnce Day.

There is a wide spread belief among
Americans that the Declaration of indie.
pendence was signed on the Fourth of
JULY The writings of John Adams
and Thomas Jefferson, as well as the
printed journal of the Continental
Congress, bear out this idea, but a
recent investigation by the chief libra
ran of the Boston public library shows
that we have all along been laboring I'M
dera mistake. The declaration was read
and agreed to on the 18th of July, but it
was not signed. 1t was ordered to be
authenticated and printed during the at,
ternoon. and on the following day copies
were sent all over the country. On the
10Th it was resolved that the declaration
be engrossed on parchment and signed
by every member On the I'd of August
nearly all the members signed it. Thorn.
ton, of New Hampshire, did not sign
until November 4 of that year, and
Mexican did not sign until 1881. OF
course no one proposes to change our
day of celebration. 1t is fact that ouI
independence was announced to the
world on the 4th OF July, and that is
enough The signing of the document
was of less importance.

Ashland Special On Sunday, 23d, there
was areligious celebration at u Pointe,
to commemorate the fifteenth anniversary
OF the coming Of Bishop Baraga. Father
Frederick Baraga arrived at La Pointe,
July ~, 1885, and commenced the build

found too small to accommodate the large
congregation OF Indians, half-breeds and
whites, q new and larger church a built
on the site where it now stands, the old

the old French fort of171S. The celcbra-

this mission by Father Allouez, Dablon
and Marquette, 1865 and 1871, the mis-
sion then being on the west shore Of Ash

Royal Cow.

Mrs. Samuel NJ. Shoemaker, says the
Baltimore Sun, has lost by death from In
hamation of the lungs the world renowned
cow Princess Second. which astonished the
world by giving in seven days a yield Of
forty-six pounds and ten and a half ounces
OF butter. This test OF her butter qualities
was completed April 10, 1885. Some time
after the tests the blankets were taken off
rather suddenly, it is thought, and she took
a cold, from which she never recovered.
She was a magnificent animal, OF great
vitality and force, as well as q fine butter
producer. One Ofthe secrets OF herimmense
yields of butter was her great vitality
and appetite. During the very height of
the test, when she was fed as large
quantities OF butter-producing food as
it was thought she could safely bear, she
broke loose one night and consumed over
200 pounds OF prepared food in a box in the
stable. About two years ago Mrs. Shoe
maker refused $25, 600 orher. She was s
years and six months old when she died.
She was an imported COW, and was bought
at auction in New Yorkfor "a, 500. She
was at the celebrated Coomassie strain.
Her first calf was sold during IN absence
from home of Mrs. Shoemaker for Sic, 600,
but the sale did not stand, Mrs. Shoemaker
refusing to ratify it on her return.
While the Burnside Park Jersey herd has
sustained great loss in the death OF Princess
Second, it is thought her place viii be more
than filed by a noble cow of grand ply
sique of the same strain. This animal,
Oxford Kate, a near relative of Princess
Second has already a record OF thirty-nine
pounds twelve ounces of butter in seven
days, which is already second to Princess
Second, and as she has never been pushed,
it is believed she can beat the foremost rec
ord. The father OF this COW sold for So, 150

Fire at Furgus Falls, Mimi.

Fire broke out in Company F's armory
at Furgus Falls, and in a few minutes the
entire structure was in flames, which spread
to adjoining buildings. The armory,
with its entire contents, fifty or sixty
Springfield rifles, as many full suits OF
fatigue and dress uniforms, a large number
of cots, n all the camp paraphernalia,
all the property OF Company +, was totally
consumed. A tenement house on the east
side of the armory was destroyed, the oc-

with their lives. The building and furniture
are a total loss. On the west side, r.

city were unroofed. Parts OF the spires OF st.
Michaels' and st. Matthews churches were
blown down, and the spire OF the Citadel

The wharves and warehouses are badly
damaged. At Sullivan's island two steam
ers are aground, ana the new Ashley river

Four vessels which recently arrived are
wrecked. The telegraph wires are down
and there are no cars running. The loss is

wharves and churches. No lives lost.
A number al houses on Sullivan's island

the pretty and interesting Jenny had
several puecliar antipathies, in one OF
which she somewhat resembled a dog

to the singing voice of one particular
person, a lady, n relative of the doc

QUE DEBT.
The Debts of other Nations Per Capita
Indebtedness

Indebtedness.
Cor. Cincinnati Times.Star.
The decrease ofthe public debtinthe
fiscal year will be over $6O,0OO,000.
This is not so great as informer years,
but it is faster than we generally sup
pose. Fivemillion ofdollars a month
is S166, 900 a day, or 800 q minute.
That is a pretty rapid rate at whichto
be extinguishing the public debt, in
spite of the people who are crying all
the time that our debt is growing less
in an imperceptible way:
People who are in the habit o fgroan-
ing about our debt being
great to bear will do well to inquire
about the debts OF other nations. Take
Italy, for instance. Her debt is over
50, 900, 600, 900, or about three times
as much per head as our own. Russia,
who is apparently eager for war, has
debt of So, 500, OO0, 600.
Great Britain, whose population is
but 80, ZOO, 600 against Our 56,0O0,-
600, has adebt of about four times as
much per head as we have, and yet
Great Britain is supposed to be eXcep-
tionally we'll off. France, brilliant and
elastic France, whose recovery from a
terrible war q few years ago has been
the wonder of the world, is carrying a
debt of 81, $50, 900, 600, or five times
as much per head as our country is
carrying. Our debt is about $25 per
head all round, that of Russia almost
$40 per head, that ofItaly nearly $75
per head, that of Great Britain 500
apiece, and that of France about$130
per citizen. The interest charged on a
debt of this sort is something NOR
nous, more than thepeople "a stand
under for any great length of time.
Of our debt only q little over q bill
ion bears interest, or to be exact ST.
196,150,3 $50. OF this only as much
as $3.50, 100000 bears as much as
4 per cent. interest. 1t is interest
ing to see how much money remains in
the treasury unclaimed, after the in
terest has ceased to accrue. On some
of this the interest ceased a half a
century ago, while on large sums in
terest has accumulated for twenty
years, and yet the principal has never
been asked for.
what do you suppose is the expla-
nation of the delay in presenting these
bonds for payment, that have been
due so long?" your correspondent
asked of an official, running over the
curious list, which, by the way, foots
up several millions OF dollars.
That's a mystery" he answered,
with a smile. 81 suppose some of it

ed up, some of it stuck away in for
gotten places, perhaps some held by
people who do not know that interest
has ceased on it, or who do not know
that they have the bonds at all. There
sometimes come to us some of these
that have come to the light by some
curious turn in the wheel of fortune.
OF course, a very considerable portion
of them will never turn up or be pre-
sented for payment.
