urer, and little less wonder Is it that
under the provisions of this bill,
drawn In the interests of the treasury
ring, the people are to be balked in
their wishes for another whole year.
Mr. Speaker, you will probably
agree with me, that it is not theduty
nor the province of gentlemen on
this side of the house to fix the indi.
vidual responsibility for all this.
During the last six years every mem
ber of the board of sinking fund
commissioners, the several State
Treasurers, the Auditor Giineral r
and the Executive belonged to your
party; none to ours. Who is respon
sible for this grand larceny; who is
responsible for the falsification of the
records and the misapplication ofthe
sinking fund ? We leave the gentle
men'on the other side of the house
determine this question. If our late
Executive was derelict in his duty,
our late Auditor General should have
detected and prevented it. Whether
the sinking fund commissioners,
whether the several StateTreasurera,
are responsible, we leave you to
determine, and to fix the individual
responsibility in the matter. One
thing, however, is but fair to state,
that the greater discrepancies both
in the payment of the principal and
interest upon the public debt, occur
during the administration of the
treasury department by the gentle
man who conducted that famous
correspondence with August Bel
mont, the author . of the new political
philosophy, the main principle of
which is expressed in his own lan
guage, "4&lition,Piviaion and Si
lence:" .Ever since - he made the ad
dition and division, he and his friends
have maintained the most profound
silence. I now ask and demand that
gentlemen upon the other hidebf the
hou.se shall speak for him, and ex
plainhis figures and account for the
falsification of the= record contained
in three annual inessages or the
Governor.
Now, Mr. Speaker, I shall vote
against this bill, bemuse I desire a
inure immediate inquiry into the
condition of the treasury than can
possibly be had, under its provisions.
I believe the people demanded this
when they ratified the last amend-
ment, to the constitution by such a
decided vote. I further - believe it to
be a violation of that amendment to
continue the present Treasurer in
power for a full year after the ex
piratihn of his'present term by legis
lative action. Had the Senate an(
House of Representgtives met in
joint convention on the third Mon
day of January last and proceeded
to elect a State Treasurer for the
term commencing on, the first Mon
day of May, 1873, and ending on the
first Monday of May, 1574, every
one would admit our action would
have been in open contempt of the
requirements of the recent amend
ments to the constitution. I deny
that we have a right to do in this
indirect manner what we were pro
hibited from doing directly and
openly. The effect of this bill is
undoubtedly to continue Mr..Macky
in 'office for a full year, after the ex
piration of his present term. When
we come to the propersection of the
bill, I, or some other gentleman Lt.ti
this side of the House, will offer an
amendment to strike out "the first
Monday in May" as the time, when
the treasurer shall enter upon the
duties of his office, and substitute
"the first alunday of December,"
the beginning of the fiscal year. This
the House can and should do, al
though the majority may be of the
opinion that it is unwise and im
politic to provide for a special elec
tion before the expiration of the
present term. But I deny that the
Legislature has the right to contioue
the present treasurer in office for
any length of time, much less a full
year, in open and palpable contempt
of the decree of the people of this
commonwealth.
Incidents of the Wrecked Atlantic
The captain sat at the head of the
table, and the purser at the foot.
The twelve were Miss Scrymser.
Miss Barker, Miss Broodie, Mr.
Sum ner, M r. Kruger, Mr. M erri tt,lll rs.
Merrett,M r. Price, Mr.Cbmancho,and
my-self. Miss Merrett,sick during
the voyage,had remained in her state
room. On Monday she came out to
dine with us, making thirteen in all.
Mr. Price said in a half jocular, half
serious way, "I won't sit at this ta
blepthere are thirteen at it." A la
dy replied, smiling, "Weilon't want
you here." Mr. Price moved to an
other table. Of the thirteen at the
captain's table, Captain Williams,
Mr. Brandt and Mr. Comancho sur
vive, and thirteen is the number of
saloon passengers saved.
The prettiest woman on board was
Miss Merritt. Mrs. Merrell was a
pleasant, elderly lady, bilious and
sea-sick. Mr. Price was the life of
the cabin, always laughing and
joking. When the vessel careened,
instead of stamping his feet and
keeping his body in motion, he lay
flat on his hands and face and groan
groan WM the only reply to
his friends; who were urging him to
exertion. When Mr. Price came
out of the cabin he offered $5O for a
life-preserver, and placed it around
one of the ladies in his charge. She
was, of course, lost, as was every one
who put on the rotten articles mis
named life-preservers. Mr. S. W.
Vick, (If Wilmington. N. C , and
Mr. Cionacho were saved. They dis
played no more nerve than Mr.
Price, and muld not have lived ten
minutes longer had they not been
rescued.
The most interesting couple in the
cabin were Mr. and Mrs Sheat, of
Nevada. They wore jewelry to the
value of about $30,000. Mr. Sheat
talked of nothing less than millions,
and poor, lamented Kruger, of Ex
change Place, New York, used to
joke with Mr. Sheat by talking mil
lions back. Mr. and Mrs. Sheaf and
their $30,000 worth of diamonds are
floating around in the cabin yet.

The statement in several of the
Continental papers that Prince
Arthur Patrick, third son of Queen
Victoria, is engaged to the Grand
Duchess Mary, only daugther of the
Emperor of Russia, is now repeated
by the London press, with some ad
ditions. First, that the Priniti" of
Wales. and his sister-in-law, wife of
the Czaroviteh, have greatly contri
'Jilted to this union, and, next, that
Prince Arthur - will go to St. Peter*
burg immediately after the return of
the Czar, who is now in Italy. It is
not unlikely that the Princess of
Wales had 'more to do with this
matchmaking than her husband. In
1866 her sister, the PrincesssDagmar,
of Denmark, married the Czarovitch,
heir to the crown of Russia. Accord
ing to the custom of the Imperial
Court, the Princess Dagmar had to
abandon the Protestant faith and
adopt that of the Greek Church, at
the same time changing her baptis
mal name to' Maria Feotiorowna.
The rule Which exacts this change
of religion from the Princesses who
marry into "the Imperial family of
Russia, is equally rigid in requiring
that when a daughter of the house of
Itomanoff marries out of the Greek
Church she shall continue in mem
bership and communion with it.

"It occurred a number of years ago,
and is of no consequence. I had ta

somewhat tired and altogether
sleepy, had stretched myself on ' u
seat for as ceinfortibte a nap as cir

"It was useless. If you have trav

in fact, all men have designs upon
the company's dividend but himself.
It was perfectly natural, therefore,
that the faithful steward in question

much importance, I could write to
my partner for money. It would
certainly be as well as to tramp ten
or tweive miles back to the city I
had left, and where I should be no
better oft, being equally a stranger
there.
"in due time I found myself in
Lauderdale, went to the best hotel,
telegraphed for money, and wrote
an explanftory note to my partner.
This business attended to, I sallied
out to see what sort ofa place Laud
derdale City might be. There was
nothing to do but amuse thyself the
best I could until the money should
come. As I strolled leisurely up the
main street, a newsboy started out of
a printing office, crying:
`Daily Banner-- extra edition—
all about the murder—great excite
ment on the E----road,' etc., etc.
`Have an extra"
"I took the sheet and thrust my
hand into my pocket for the money
without a moment's thought.. Yon,
might imagine my feelings when
compelled to return that two-penny
bit of paper back to the boy, with
the muttered excuse that I had no
change, and the utterly contemptu
ous expression on the boy's face as
he received it. I immediately step
ped
into the office of the Banner urns,
wrote a paragraph of my recent
mishap, taking care to make it As
amusing as possible. When corn-
pleted, I handed it to the clerk. Ile
read it, laughed and took it into the
private office. Coming back a few
minutes after, he told the book keep
er to give the fifty cents. It was not
much, but more than I expected.
Well, I continued my walk until I
finally reached the entl'of the street,,
which terminates at the S riv
er, here spanned by a long, covered
bridge. I crossed the bridge and was
surprised to see upon reaching the
opposite side that I would be re
quired to pay toll. A young girl
came to the door of the little office as
I stepped up and inquired how much
I should pay, drawing forth my soli
tary shinplaster.
" " said she, with a smile
and a slight blush, "we do not charge
ministers anything.
"It was a bad joke, but. I suppress
ed the laugh that arose to my lips.
and thanking her for the considera
tion shown to the clergy, I turned
about and retraced my steps to the
hotel, not withrint some twinges of
conscience for allowing the mistake
to pass and taking advantage of it.
"My first duty next !morning was
to seek some knight of the razor. I
had noticed a pleasant little shop at
no great distance from the hotel, in
my walk the previousday. Think
ing that I should do no better looking
farther, I repaired to that. There
was in attendance a boy about twelve
years of age. who stated that his fath
er, the proprietor, had gone to a
neighboring city, and Would not re
turn before noon. Without any hes
itation I asked for the lain of a razor,
and proceeded to operate on myself.
While thus occupied, the customers
began to present themselves, express
ing great - dissatisfaction on learning
how matters stood. Now, although
I am a proud man, I am not, thank
God, cursed with.that species of van
ity which prevents a man from
doing certain kinds of honest labor
simply because they are not genteel.
Here an opportunity offered to at
least earn the price of my breakfast.
I took advantage of it: told the first
man that came in, after I had com
pleted shaving myself. I would shave
him, I did so. In fact, I did quite
a brisk business tor a couple of hours,
an if any of the unfortUnate indi
viduals who- came under my hand
had any doubt of my fitness for the
business, they certainly, expressed
none. At the expiration of that
time I thought I had done sufficient,
and feeling rather hungry, having
had no breakfast, I divided the pro
cewis with the boy, and prepared to
return to my . hotel. But , I was not
done yet. As I was brushing my
hat. a young dandified specimen of
humanity came in. Resolved that
he should be the last, I wenjto work
on him. When he came to pay me
I was, to say the least, somewhat sur
pria.d.to see him deliberately pro
duce my own pocket-book —the one
I had last. Standing on no ceremo
ny, I snatched it from his hand, and
demanded in no gentle tone. how it
came into his possession.
"Without stopping to reply other
than by a volley of imprecations, as
he reached the door, he tumbled.

The Earth's Future.

ture of the earth. lie. gives a soul

entific knowledge 'with regard to the
history of matter, from its- nebulous
to its stellar, and, finally, its planet
ary condition. Oa- the probable fu
ture of the earth, the first two phases
throw no light, but the - last does.
There is in the moon, as - every one
knows, no present evidence of the
existence of an atmosphere or of
water, but their former existence is a
fair and direct deduction from the
doctrine of the common origin of the
earth and moon. But if they once
existed, how shall we explain their
disappearance? They have been
absorbed by the rocks. In an age
long gone . by, the moon was in the
same physical condition as the earth.
The water on its surface, -or that
which descended in periodic
storms, as it percolated the porous
rocks and thin crust of the moon,
soon reached a temperature which
dissipated it in vapor, and returned
it to the surface to be recondensed.
But the moon having only one forty
ninth the bulk of the earth, cooled
forty-nine times as rapidly as the
earth, and at length a temperature
was reached at which the rocks on
the sertace took it in faster than it
could be evaporated again. "The
moon is a fossil world, an ancient
cinder suspended in the heavens,
once the seat of all the varied and in
tense activities which now charac
terize the service of our. earth, but in
the present period a realm of silence
and stagnation." Such will be the
fate of the earth. Already our plan
et has passed the "ring condition"
now presented by Saturn, and the
stage now seen in Jupiter, in which
"a water mist begins to condense in
the peripheral regions," and gathers
with a vaporous envelope; this pre
cipitates an aqueous rain, which ul
timately finds a resting-place upon
the incrusted nucleus. Later, lite
makes its appearance. Then comes
the terrestrial stage, in which we
now 'are, and in which the "organic
phaSe now culminates." Then
comes the stage in which Mars now
seem to be, with diminished vapor.;
and in frequent rains, encroaching
cold, and "decline of the organic
phase." Last of all will bethe stagein
which the moon now i 4, beginning
with the disappearance of aqueous va

"The progressive cooling of the earth
will allow the waters to circulate
deeper and deeper. When the thick
est of the terrestrial shell, which
must be saturated with water, has
doubled, the increased demand must
lower the waters of the ocean, and'
long before refrigeration has reached
the center, the thirsty packs will have

High Words
Discussing the rise in gold and the
fall of American stocks, The Sacra
mento Union uses some pretty high
language. It thinks that the price
of gold, depreciation of stocks, and
high rate of interest are all due "to.
over-trading. The balance of foreign
trade is reckoned as $230,000,000
against us. - Congress, however,
comes in for the most vigorous criti
cism from our California cotempora
ry. Instead of coming to the relief
of the country, Congress added $.54,
000,000, or 38 per cent, to the sum it
cost to conduct the Government last
year. These figures, however, are
not accepted by some Congressional
authoritias. The Union sums up the
ease in this fashion:
In addition to these causes we have
to add to the account a sum of offi
cial and incorporated villainy such
as no nation has exhibited since the
rottenest era of the old Roman Em
pire. A thieving, shameless con
grem, guilty of many individual
frauds which are morally worse Ulan
ordinary felonies, awl of one whole

that of Caesar when he laid violent
hands on the Roman treasury; two
great railway corporations planning
by the aid of Congressmen and Sena
tors and by the tacit consent of the
officers of the Government, to rob the
trea-ury of many millions; and all
over the country heard the sullen
and illsuppressed rumbling of a dis
contented and betrayed people, look
ing forward to revolution as the only
sure method of relief from the doub
le tyranny of corrupted law-makers
and corrupting cornomtions. This
is the true condition of the country
without disguise or concealment.
Waste, theft, fraud, robbery, treach
ery and insolence among the rulers
and the rich. Discontent; heavy
taxes, costs of living all the while
increasing, and wages threatened to
be cut down among the laboring

out West: An Indiana journal es

-On Sunday morning -last, about
9 o'clock, some parties who were
traveling over the - Welsh mountains;
a short distance from. Morgantown,
found the dead body Maven known
character in that section by the name
of "Black lte,"' upon the floor Of his
eabin,,,in:sviiich Tie had IlVed all alone
for a period of over fifty - yea& Life
had' been extinct apparen Oyler genie
time, and the body lay stretched
upon the rude:floor of his hut, the
bee having the appearataw as if the
old hermit had died in ereat agony. -
The history of this old man, who
lived isolated' and alone upon thp
mountain lot so long a time, mutt
remain a mystery-forever, as nobody
In that section - knows from' whence
the hermit came or anything con
cerning any relatives he miy have
had, either alive or dead. and the
manner of his death, at this writing,
is also a mystery.
•The black hermit was in the neigh
borhood of seventy years of age, and
_came to Morgantown about sixty
years ago. He never stated to any
one from whence he had come, but
the general supposition is that Ike
had escaped from Sotuhern slavery
in. some manner, worked himself
North, and found his way to the
beautiful valley of the Conestoga.
There he worked among the farmers
for sometime, until he became tired
of civilized life, and before he was
twenty years.of age he took himself
to the mountains, built himself a hut
out - of rough sla bs, bark and clay,
and there passed the remainder of - hb3
yearn in solitude. -
He learned basket-making, and in
this manner gained a livelihood.
There is not a farm-house In the
lower section of the county but what
has a hickory basket in its possession
made by this hermit. He was frugal,
and during the long number ofyears
In which he worked it Is possible and
probable' that hesaved a considerable
sum of money, which he• had hid
away about his cabin or somewhere
in the mountain. When this fact
is coupled with his sudden death, it
is not improbable that the old man
met with foul play at the hands of
one of the many bands of strolling
ginsies that cross the mountains at
Oils season of the year, or some one
else who supposed that the old negro
had his wealth hid in his Pahl!).
"Black Ike" was known far and
wide as an honest and inoffensive
character. He would come down
from the mountains only at night,
' for the purpose of selling his baskets
and procuring necessary supplies at
the Morgantown store. He has been
seen many miles from home at in id
night, prowling about the country,
but was never known orsuspected of
stealing. Upon many occasions when
the country was stilt, about the mid
dle of the night, Ma people residing
in the valley could hear the notes of
the hermit's violin sounding away
up at his cabin ;
Ike was a short, thick-set, hump.
backed man, very black, and had a
peculiar laugh. Through the long
and severe winters he remained upon
the mountains, and the question as
to how he lived was very frequently
asked by the people of that section.
But when spring came the old negro
would invariably make his appear
ance with a large stock of baskets.
And in this manner he lived for over
fifty years.
The body was taken to Churchtown
and buried a few miles outside of
that village. Thus ended one of the
most singular lives having its exist
ence in this section of the • State.—

Mir. Seward and President Lincoln
There are,-says the New York Bun,
several thingsin this oration (Charles
Francis Adams' tribute to the late
Secretary Seward, et Albany, New
York, Friday last,) which are likely
to excite dissent, and there is one
especially which seems to ruire
immediate correction. Having been
absent from the country during the
period of President Lincoln's admin
istration, and never having enjoyed
the advantage Of personal intimacy
with that remarkable man, Mr.
Adams falls into the rather natural
error of attributing to Mr, Seward a
degree of influence with Mr. Lincoln
and of control over his actions which
he did not possess or exercise.
No doubt the Secretary of State
had his full share in the transactions
of that time. He was much consult
ed by the President. who was fond of
his conversation and his society; but
-the trefffh is—and this we say not
from reading, information, or infer
ence, but from personal knowledge—
no man was ever more entirely the
the master of his own affairs or of
his own conduct than Presdent Lin
coln of the executive power of this
Governn'ent. He was on friendly
terms with all the members of his
Cabinet, and gave them due latitude
in the discharge of their proper du
ties; but when any one had to yield
his opinion it was the Secretary and
not the President; and his judgment
arkt his orders had to be followed in
every one of their departments.
There were, of course, Occasional
differences between him and then),
but there never was a day when he
would not have immediately accept
ed the resignation of any one of them
had it been offered, and there ~ ,never
was a day when any one of them
was resolute enough to make his
resignation the alternative of his
advice.
This we say not to lessen the just
glory of Mr. Seward or any of his
colleagues, but to state the exact
truth and do justice to Abraham
Lincoln.
No ',lore Rice from China.
A law has for a long time existed
in China preventing the exportation
of rice. This law has, until recently,
not been practically enforced. as in
, the year 1872 there was exported
from Hong Kong 31,000 pounds. It
is reported that the law will from
this time forth be strictly enforced
in China; and as all the custom offi
cers are foreigners, who will profit
largely by seizures, it is presumed
that very little China rice will hence
forth be received at • San Francisco.
The result will be that the Chinese
will be compelled to eat flour, the
production of our State. This is well.
Another effect will be that the re
turning Chinese will still desire to
eat flour, and thus our floor will find
a market in China.—San Francisco
Chronicle.
—There was a passage in Mr.
Adams' eulogy upon reward which
has not excited the attention it de
served.
We reproduce it:
"Our forefathers would marvel
could they imagine it possible for
me to claim credit for Mr. Seward,
on the score of his honesty as a pub
-tic man. Yet the time has come
when we must honor one who never
bought nor sold a vote or a place, and
who never permitted his public ac
tion to be contaminated in theatmos
phere of corporation Influence. On
that subject I had occasion to know
his sentiments - more than once."
That is a rebuke which strikes
right and left.
—The London Daily Telegraph ex
plorer in Assyria has met with great
sucerNs. He has found eighty new
inscriptions, including histories
known and hitherto unknown of As
syrian kings. Among his discover
ies is - a highly important tablet con

two language?), which will add in the
further ; elucidation of the whole class
of inscriptions. Many of the inscrip
