. Pennsylvania State Loan.
At last the disgrace so long attached to our
State is to be wiped out, and the preparatory
steps to tho redemption ot our overdue bonds
have already been taken. Elsewhere In our
paper to-day will be found the advertisement
of the Governor, Auditor-General, and State
Treasurer, asking for proposals for the loan
of $23,000,000. The loan is exempt from
all State and local taxation, and divided
into four cla9se9,namely : Fi ve millions of dol
lars, payable at any time after five years, and
within ten years; ciht millions of dollars,
payable at any time after ten years, and
within fifteen years ; and ten millions of dol
lars, payable at any time after fifteen years,
and within twenty-five years.
The proposals for this loan must state
whether they intend to demand five or six
per cent, interest, and whether they will pay
cash, or exebance the overdue bonds, i'he
proposals must be forwarded to the Capital,
with the direction "Proposals for Pennsylva
nia State Loan, Treasury Department, Uar
risburg, Pa., U. S. A." The seals will be
broken on the first of April, 1807, at noon, by
the Governor, Auditor-General, and State
Treasurer, and the loan awarded. The ad
vantages of such an investment must be ob
vious to every capitalist. The security is
undoubted, the interest Is a high one, and the
length of time before maturing commends it
to all guardians and trustees. Much credit is
due to Mr. W. IT. Kemble, the Treasurer, for
the energy with which he has pressed this be
coming change in the financial policy oi our
State, lhe Legislature also deserves thanks,
uot for doing what is only its duty, but for
Joing it so promptly, and in such an accept
able and equitable form.
McCracken on His TravelsWhat
He
Saw and What He Nuitl.
The Senate has succeeded in unearthing
the peripatetic eavesdropper and spy who
made it h's "special business" to wander
about Europe, and "report" on the senti
ments of our foreign ministers. He bears
the elegant patronymic of ''McCracken."
The attempt to connect him with Mr. Charles
O'Conor, of New York, as bis nephew, lias
proved a failure . Mr . O'Conor declines the
honor, and says he doesn't know the fellow
he Is "neither relative, connection, nor ac
quaintance" of his. H7to he is nobody
sterns to know. He is merely McCracken
"only this, and nothing more !''
His letter to the President is a miserable
tissue of twaddle, and is only interesting as
an illustration ot the kin I of creatures that
now have the ear of the Administration,
and upon whose representations eminent cit
zens like Mr. Motley are subjected to insult
by our fallen and decrepit Secretary of
State. The substance of it is that he has
travelled a good deal in Europe, seen some
thing of our Ministers and Consuls, and
found that a majority of them are "bitterly
hostile'' to "your Administration." Espe
cially is this true of those from "the Ne w Eng
land States," who seem to compose a majo
rity of our representatives abroad, and who
are a "very indifferent set, Individually and
collectively." Mr. Motley, at Vienna, is one
of these "indifferent" fellows. lie is "dis
ousted" with "your whole conduct." lie
don't conceal it. He applauds Charles Sum
ner. He despises American democracy. lie
says Seward Is "hopelessly degraded." He
( Motley) Is a flunkey."
Next is Murphy, the Consul at Tangier,
who "is said" (that convenient hearsay slan
der) to have cleared more than a hundred
thousand dollars. He is one of Zach. Chand
ler's "tools," and thinks "you" ought to be
impeached. Hale, at Madrid, "condemned
your course in a malignant manner." Some
of "my friends" who went to Morocco heard
McMoth "rail violently and shamefully against
you, and so did Morris, at Constantinople."
And so the unknown McCracken "swings
around the circle." Becoming Inspired by
his theme, be exclaims, "Radicalism of the
worst sort makes war upon you and your
friends I" ' It is a shame to permit this
longer I" "Massachusetts monopolizes the
liou's share of the consulates," and Boston
has "no less than three of the first missions!"
Contemplating this irruption of the universal
Yankee upon the feeding-ground of first-class
missions, McCracken grows pathetic, and
exclaims: "Is no other part of our country
to be considered as worthy of notice? Must
Sumner, Butler, Phillips, Chandler, and the
like, engross all the honors for their satel
lites?" Ordinary people would suppose that ibis
was a gentle hint to the President to bestow
a few honors on one ot hti "satellites" by the
name of McCracken. But no; McCracken
resents the Imputation. "I want nothing at
your hands of any sort," he exclaims ; never
theless he adds, "But nc and decent men
should be sent abroad, who will not slander
the Chiel Executive of the Government;" and
at the conclusion of his letter he adds the
significant note that "a friend will deliver
this note personally." II McCracken or his
"friend" did not get one of those Consulships
which his righteous soul was so grieved at
beholding in the hands of Massachusetts
Bic n, It certainly was not for tho want of
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. rHILADKL-riHA. THURSDAY,
doing dirty work enough to entitle him to
the name of a "sattelllte."
We must say that this whole business, from
beginning to end, is about as paltry as it Is
possible to conceive of. How a man of Mr.
Seward's intelligence and ordinary sense of
propriety could for a moment have listened
to such stuff" &s this Insignificant creature had
concocted, would pass our comprehension,
had he not made it the basis of his insulting
and discreditable letter to Mr. Motley.
SouiBKitw Military Distbicts. The
Reconstruction Committee, yesterday, re
ported a bill in favor of reducing the entire
South to a number of military districts. It
provides, after reciting the dangers and op
pressions to which loj al men are exposed,
that the "so-called States shall be divided into
military districts and made subject to the
military authority ol the United States as
hereinafter prescribed; and for that purpose
Virginia shall constitute the first district,
North Carolina and South Carolina the second
district, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida the
third district, Mississippi and Arkansas the
fourth district, and Louisiana and Texas the
fifth district." The remaining sections of the
bill make arrangements for carrying this new
provision into effect. The bill is one of the
utmost importance, and, as all its ideas have
been thoroughly discussed for the past two
months, both in and out of Congress, Mr.
btevens announces his intention of pressing It
to a vote this evening. There seems to bo
but little doubt of its passage.
The Cask of Hon. C. V. Culver.
We are glad to see by telegraph that Mr.
C. V. Culver has been acquitted of tho
criminal charges of which he was accused.
Wiiile public feeling, immediately after the
failnre ol Culver, Penn & Co., ran high
against him, yet time has allowed the passion
to cool ; and he who was first reviled as a
scoundrel, has shown himself only an unfor
tunate gentleman. The fact tliat his acquittal
was received with applause by the entire
audience, shows what way public feeling
tended at his home, and ia the best evidence
of bis innoceuce.
Tbe Kate of Interest in Massachu
setts. The Massachusetts House of Repre
sentatives has passed a law allowing the rate
of interest to be fixed at seven per cent, by
special contract. All the States bordering
upon New York, and whose rates of interest
ara less than seven per cent., will eventually
be forced into measure s similar to this, or else
behold their floating capital drained to that
State.
Mr. Spurgeon's Almshouses and Orphanage.
Rev. C. H. Spurgeon has ju.it concluded tne
purchase oi two and a half acre of land adja
cent to Chaplain Common, upon which the
bu'Miuss for the purposes of tue new orphanage,
i.nder his auspices, will be erected. It ia not
intended to commence the whole structure at
ouce. In the centre of the fcite the schools,
chapel, and other nece$arv butldiuiru will be

will oe reared, in which the children can live to

Austrian Mine. It is supposed to be the iu
teuiion of Count Larisch to lease the ruinos
belonging to the State in Aur-tria. A commence
ment has been made with the well-known quick
silver mines of Idria, which have been farmed
by the banking-house of Weickersheim & Bran
dies tor a term of ten years. The lessees ai?reu
to take tbe whole produce of the mines at a
certain price, and as the demand lor quick
silver is very fluctuatine, the Government gains
tne advantage of a tixed revenue upon which it
can depend.
TI1K DOUBLE MURDER IN MAINE.
A Negro and a White Man the Murderers
Arrest and Confession of the Negro
The While Man Sure to be Arrested,
Ktt. Etc.
Lewiston, February 6. The terrible murder
of two old women in Auburn, on the stormy
Tliumiay three or lour weeks cince, is well
remembered Hb one of the mopt brutal aud
heudisu that ever was recorded in the criminal
calendar ot this country. Two old women were
ravished, and then murdered.
Several arrests have been made, but until
now all attenipta to secure the reallv euiliv
parties have been in vain. When th stran
gling Frenchman wim arrested some two weeks
ago, tne double murder wan envelooeil in
greater mjBtery tban ever, and every trace of
tueautnoroi tne hellish outrage seemed to be
obliterated. Search had been made in every
direction tor trace of a straggler, but alihouga
a fortnight had elapsed, and evwry neighbor
hood had been aroused, yet none could be
heard ol as suspicious except the unfortunate
Frenchman.
This absence of every trace of a btraegler
gradually compelled the ollicers to dismiss the
stiaggler theory, and coutine their attentlous
nearer home. As soon as tne cae came to this
joini, the authorities sent to New York and
becuredthe services of one ot the best detec
tives In that city, who quietly came to Lewis
ton and Aubuni eooie ten days siace, ana,
unknown to any person except those specially
interested, proceeded to investigate the clrcum
siaucet ot the scene ot the double murder, and
mingled with the peoplo in the vicinity in tne
guife of an ordinary stranger, conversed ireely
with evwjbody who had any Information, auii
tock note ot every circumstance trial bore upon
the tragedy, and with the hilp of the local olli
cers lerreted out every tact.
The detective was satisfied that the rrlme
was committed by some person or persons well
acquainted with the premises, and that there
was ptonable teason to suppose that money
inlght have been tbo original object in entering
the house, if not of the murder. These and
oiher f tela threw suspicion, upon a negro about
twenty jcars of ase, who has been at work
some mouths in a shoe factory in West Auburn,
about hall a mile distant trom tbe scene ot the
murder. He had been arrested previously, but
nothing appeared against him, Bnd he was dis
charged. He was, however, arrested a second time and
confined in the Auburn tail. From their In
vestigations the ollicers were enabled to lay
uefore the neitro certain developments, which
led to a full confession that he was one of the
parties ens-aged in the commission of this
diabolical crime, and the further statement that
a white man wai concerned with him in the
double murder. He conf-sead all tbe circum
stances of the crime, particularizing the manner
in which admission was gained to the houe
and tho crime committed. The white man im
plicated by tbe negro will be arrested to night,
knd n Investigation had to-morrow.
