MIR. MANLEY,s TESTIMONY.

Testimony in favor of the new ballot sys-
tenn continues to he offered. Very signif-
cant is that of Mr.. Joseph Manley of Maine,
who is said to be chiefly responsible for the
defeat of bill embodyipg the System in the
Maine legislature last winter. Manlsy has
this to say: must admit that the system
has, in the main, proved successful. It has
had fair trial in two States under directly
different conditions. The great object of
any reform in the ballot system is to insure
absolute freedom and, SO far as it is possi-
BILE, purity ia the election. think the sys-
tenn has some defects which can be easily
remsaied, defects which must be remedisd
before 1t can be generally adopted. In
Maine we have always held that the voter
should never be deprived of the intent of
the ballot, if that could be ascsrtained.
Under the law as it existed in Massachusetts,
at the last election, the evidence is conclu-
sive that many voters by the system were
practically disfranchised, because, If the
Cross was not in the right place, although
the voter intended by his marking to vote
either for the Democratic or Republican cam
didats, the vote was counted contrary to his
desire, or was not oounted at all. The great
benefit of the law is seen in the cities and
larger towns.
The new system has made a very promfs
ing start. OF course 1t is not to be expected
that 1t will do away with all the evils that
have bsen SO apparent in the old method OF
voting, but it bids fair to make great and
lasting Improvement.

SOmE sNTEREsTING FACTS.

SOME INTERESTING FACTS.
An interesting review Of Catholicism in
the United States is made in, the New York
Independent by prominent Catholic. It is
shown that in 1860 there were 1856 parochial
schools with about $4,000 pupils. Now there
are more than 5000 with 600, 900 pupils. At
the present time the Catholic body in the
United States is divided into 13 ecclesial
provinces, each with an archbishop and suf-
fragan bishops. Baltimore with seven bish-
ops, 351 churches, $50, 900 Catholics; Boston
with six bishops, 621 churches, and nearly
LOCO, 900 Catholics; Chicago with three bish-
ops, 5s3 churches, $50, 900 Catholics; Cincin-
natl with nine bishops, 800 churches and
1000. 900 Catholics; Milwaukee, three bishops,
500 churches, 500, 900 Catholics; New Orleans,
six bishops, 400 churches, 45o, 900 Catholics;
New York, eight bishops, 1900 churoKes,
2,000, 900 Catholics; Oregon, three bishops,
14O churches, 81, 900 Catholics; Philadelphia.
four bishops. $50 churches, 800, 900 Catholics;
st. Louis, ten bishops, 1900 churches, $780,
600 Catholics; St. Paul, five bishops, 500
churches, 200 Catholics; San Francisco,
three bishops, $50 churches, 300, 900 Catho-
lies; Santa Fe, two bishops, 1870 churches,
175, 900 Catholics; so that little body of
$4,000 Catholics century since, has swollen
probably to 100000, with 13 archbishops,
one also cardinal, rs bishops, 5000 priests,
$500 churches, one great theological univer-
sity and ~ seminaries, 81 colleges, $50 acad-
smies and 525 charitable institutions. besides
the paroohial schools already enumerated.

means and returns his entire salary to his

means and returns his entire salary to his
church.
DIR. Rainsford of st. Georges receives ten
thousand dollars year. He also is pos
sessed of a private fortune, and, like the
rector of st. Barthelonew's, turns his salary
over to his church.. There are at least
dozen other Episcopal parishes in the me-
tropolis which pay their reotors salaries
ranging from four to eight thousand dollars
per annum. The bishop of the diocese Of
New York is paid fifteen Thousand dollars.
In the Methodist Episcopal churches large
salaries are not the general rule, but the am
bitious minister can aspire to become one Of
the agents Of the Book Concern established
here or the secretary of one of the many
branches of church work, or, for that mat
ter, bishop. The Bishop of New York re-
ceives five thousand dollars. All the other
bishops receive forty-fve hundred dollars
annually, excepting the Bishops of Africa
and India, who are paid four thousand and
thirty-fv hundred dollars respectively.
The agents of the Book Concern get Ave
Thousand dollars. The same sum is given to
the various secretaries. The pastor of st.
Pauls on Fourth avenue, the largest Aetho-
dist church in the city, gets five thousand
dollars and large parsonage comfortably
furnished to live in rent free. All the Meth.
odist churches furnish their pastors with
residences. The Madison avenue church also
pays ltb pdstOF uV6 tuOushuO OolioIS.
The Presbyterian pulpit in New York is
filled by some of the ablest preachers in
America. DR.. John Hall of the Fifth ave-
nue. church draws salary Of twenty thou
sand dollars. DR.. Paxton is said to receive
ten thousand dollars, DR.. Parkhurst eight
Thousand dollars and DR.. G. @. Thompson
eight thousand dollars, while T. De Witt
Talmage Of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, whose
influence is as great in New York as it is in
Brooklyn, is paid twelve thousand dollars.
Apart from what they receive from their pa
rishioners, DR.. John Hall makes handsome
sum each year by writing for the New York
Ledger, and Dr.. Talmage is paid a salary for
editing Frank Leslie's Sunday Magazine.
The Rev. Robert Collyer of the Park ave-
nue. Unitarian church receives ten thousand
dollars. DR.. William N. Taylor of the
Broadway Tabernacle, Congregational or
eanization, is supposed to have like salary.
But, putting all monetary considerations
aside, the reputation clergyman of talent
is certain to achieve in New York, and the
opportunities for doing efficient work for the
cause Of religion and humanity, are so many
that most clergymen regard 1t as very de-
sirable field Of activity.

About Diamonds.

From the London Telegraph
Colsrless diamonds are usually the most
valuable, bat oolored stone with an exqui-
site tint fetchss as high price as any. The
famous Hope diamond, which weighs about
one hundred and forty-four and one-half
troy grain, and is said to be worth twenty
Eve thousand pounds, is of q superb sap
phire blue color. Large diamonds Of the
first water are very rare, and in the whole of
Europe at the present time there are only
five Of more than one hundred carats weight.
A carat is three and one-fourth grains troy
The largest of these is the gem of the impe-
rial scepter Of Russia, which came. from In
dia. The others are the Pitt or Regent dis-
mond, belonging to the French government
this was the jewel Napoleon used to wear
in the hilt of his sword]; the Tuscany dia-
mond, which is now the fret crown jewel of
the Emperor of Austria; the "Koh-i-Noor,"
ia the possession of Queen Victoria, and the
ssStar of the South" which originally came
from Brazil, and is now lying in pawn In
some banking house in Paris. The diamond,
which cen only be cut and polished by its
own powder, is either fashioned into a
"rose" or a "brilliant." In the former one
portion is made fat, while the rest of the
stone is carved into faceted dome. The
latter, which is always made about three
times as thick rs the rose, is always cut into
facets, bnt so as to form kind of double
pyramid with a common central base OF
girdle.

Y MORNING, NOVEMBER l3, 1889.

German, who smokes more than the French
man, poisons himself less, N. Ortolan said
that the percentage of nicotine in tobacco is
less when the stalks grow close together and
when the leaves are numerous and placed low
on the stalk; hence in Germany, where to-
baoeo growing is unrestricted, the amount
of nicotine Is less than in the French tobacco,
where the industry is regulated by govern
ment and the number of leaves to the stalk
is limited. French tobacco contains as much
as 6 per cent. Of nicotine.
An ingenious and useful telegraphic re-
corder is coming into notice. The new in
strument prints its messages in lines upon
the surface of roll Of paper elk inches
broad, SO as the type-written slips, as cut off
by the guillotine, appear much in the form of
proofs of printing types set in galleys. The
new machine prints horizontally, so that a
compositor could set directly from the
machine, having the messages like hand bill
on the wall before him. The cylinders of
paper are Of convenient size, three inches in
diameter, including the wood core, and six
inches in length, corresponding to the breadth
of the paper as 1t is unrolled. Each roll will
take the impression Of Is, 900 words, the rate
Of printing being 26 or 20 words per minute;
aud one winding of the oloek-work gives ef-
feet for 5000 words. The motive powe, for
the paper cylinder is derived from the gravi-
tation of heavy weight; the actual printing
is done by the electric current.
Dr. Philippe Rieord, whose death in Paris
was recently announced, was the most ''dec-
GRATED" man in Europe, having more than
two hundred crosses, medals, insignia and
other tokens of gratitude and admiration be-
slowed on him by European potentates, and
was buried amidst an almost national display
Of military and civic honors. He often said,
in jocular way: "The eighteenth century,
just before expiring, had one more mistake
to perform; 1t was to push me into the
world. Twas born on the 10th of December,
1900, at eleven and three-quarters at night. "
The event occurred at Baltimore, where his
parents resided. They were French, land had
taken refuge there from the French West
Indies, desolated at that time by the revolt
of San Domingo aud Guadaloupe. DR.. Ricord
established himself at Paris soon after having
obtained his diploma, and he attained there
the highest honors in his profession and
great popularity among the poor and the
rich, not only in France, but in all Europe.

Ministers and Money.

A few facss and figures will give an idea
of the opportunities that New York holds
out to brainy men who have chosen the min
istry as profession.
The wealthiess single church organization
on this aide of the Atlantic is the Trinity
corporation of the Protestant Episcopal
church. 1t embraces old Trinity, at the
head of Wall street, and eight parish chap
els-St Paul's, st. Johns, Trinity chapel,
st. Augustines, ST. Cornelius, Zion church,
Zion chapel and Trinity church, Morrisania
To support these churches there are ample
funds. The income of the corporation is
between seven hundred and fifty and eight
hundred Thousand dollars year. Yet this
amount does not adequately represent the
corporations capital. A large portion of its
lands we're leased long ago, when property
was not as valuable as at present. The
leases were to run ninety years. When
they expire the income of the Trinity oorpo-
ra ton will pe double what 1t is now.
DR.. Morgan Dix is the rector of old Trini-
ty, and exercises general supervision over
the parish ehapels. His salary is fifteen
Thousand dollars per annum. The assistant
rector of the same church receives six thou
sand dollars, while the assistants who have
charge of the chspels receive four thousend
dollars year each, excepting DR.. Swope, of
Trinity chapel, who gets eight thousand dol
lars.
These are pretty high salaries, but the
Episcopalians of New York are renowned
for generosity toward their pastors. The
Last rector of st. Thomas was paid eighteen
thousand dollars DR.. Brown, who fills the
pulpit at present, gets fifteen thousand dol
lars. DR.. Huntington, of Grace church
which Vice President Morton attends wher
living in the city, has, perhaps, the most de-
