The Secretary of the Interior. re- ferrlng to the admission to the Union of four new States, and the growth of population in the West says: 1t may be safely sad that but few years will pass before the center of pOpula- tion will have advanced quite 10 their own borders" This is a prediction which may be safely made, and its chief significance IS in the fact that with the shifting of the center of pop ulation to the West will come an in- creased representation in Congress winch will give to the Western and Middle States a controllng voice in legislation. It would be the part of wisdom for political party leaders to recognize this inevitable change, and by more friendly recognition of her claims to win her favor Increased silver coinage and the irrigation pro- ject are of paramount importance to the West and the party which opposes those measures must expect defeat.

J. Frledenstein, metal broker, New York, in his monthly market report, just received, says of copper: The present betterment in prices IS, as be- fore mentioned, not the result of any preconcerted speculative movement, but Is attributed to the enormous in crease in consumption consequent up- on the lately ruling low prlces. and has surpassed the most sanguine ex- pectations, as well as the largest pro- duction ever recorded. The rapidity of the advance has been accelerated by heavy purchases by consumers in gen. eral, who, finding themselves bare of stock when there appeared indications of a sustained advance, came into the market for larger quantities for prompt as well as future deliveries. so that at this time producers are fairly well sold up, and in the absence of any extensive speculative element, the chances for the maintenance of pres ent values is quite good.

The Tucson. Citizen, of the 9th in referring to the statement that Col. Fred Smith ex-receiver of the U. s. Land Office had deposited in a bank the amount ($33,000) due settlers who had intrusted him with money, await ing final proofs in the Land Office during hls administration. The Citl- zen ayers that the sum so deposited is but S2500O, or S8,000 short of the sum for which Smith is responsible. The U. s. Grand Jury has the matter un- der investigation. According to the Phoenix Gazette there are upward of one hundred and fifty land entries in the office awaiting action, which will not be taken cognizance of by the pres ent receiver, Drake, until the requIs- ite sums are forthcoming to warrant his action in the premises. In the event of Smiths failure to reimburse settlers. the Citizen says, neither his bondSmen nor the Government can be held responsible for the dedication, as the Government recognizes no claim until final proof is entered and the claimants title perfected, so that in re- ceiving money from settlers. awaiting final proofs, Smith was not officially accountable.

The reignlng sensation at Washing ton, D. C., is the Silcott dedication and forgery. Silcott was the trusted cashier for the Sergeant-at-Arm of the House of Representatives, who dis purses the salaries of Congressmen, and in that capacity has access to very large sums of money. The Sergeant at-Arms has also been dolng a bank ing business for the accommodation of members, and was custodian ot funds belonging to large number of them, who since the disappearance of Silcott find themselves cinched Tn various sums from S3,0O0 down. The total amount of the dedication is placed at about S72,000. \ special committee appointed to investigate the matter find that the responsibility for the loss can not be located, and Sergeant-at- Arms Leedom and his bondSmen are not legally liable, although it is said that Leedom will reimburse the victims of Silcott's dishonesty to the extent et hls ability. Silcott has absconded, and his whereabouts is unknown, although he IS believed to be Tn Canada.

gone! added haughtily, I see that the friends of the South are prepared to consent to her degredation,' and sweeping the company with proud and despairing glance he attempted to pass from the room. But the blow was too much for his feeble organiza- ton. His face was white with anger and disappointment, and the mist of unshed tears was in his eyes-tears winch pride struggled to keep back. The sentiment that all was lost went through bis heart like the slow and measured thrust of a sword; as the wound sunk into 1t. 1t left him speech less; loose and tottering he would have fallen to the floor, had not Gen. eral Breckenridge ended the scene by leading him faltering from the room. '"
 The story which galned currency in the North, of the capture of Jefferson Davis, alleging that he was dressed in woman'S attire, with hoop-skirt and bonnet, has been etfectually exploded. Mr. Davis own account of hIs capture IS told in letter, written in 1877, to his classmate Col. Crafts J. Wright, published for the first time Tn the Cincinnati Evening Post of Decent Der 9th, current month. He states that the only persons with him when cap tured were his wife and a colored maid. He wore a waterproof cloak and carried a shawl such as were com monly used by men Tn those days. When commanded to surrender, Mr. Davis dropped the cloak and shawl, and advanced defantly, declaring he would not surrender. Mrs. Davis ran forward and threw her arms around her husbands neck, and he then sur rendered. MT. Davis is substantiated by Andrew Bee, a Norwegian, and member of the 4th Michigan Regi- ment, the captor of Davis, who states that the latter wore a military suit, cavalry boots and gray flannel blouse, and as he stepped from the tent he was pulling on sleeveless ulster, Mrs. DavIs followed him and threw his travelling shawl over his shoulders.
 Sorrow for the death of Jefferson Davis is generally felt throughout the South, as Is to be naturally expected. Upwards of sixty thousand persons viewed the remains lying in State in the New Orleans city hall. A New Orleans dispatch says: "The Confed- crate veterans are much pleased with the fraternal spirit characterizing the remarks of Capt. Jacob Gray, of the c. A. R., before the executive commit tee Saturday night. Capt, Gray said that while the army of course could not take any official action in regard to the death of Davis, they had great respect for mm as a sole fer and states man and would attend the funeral"
