A. )'. World. Horrible Affair at a Ufforinntcry. We are informed that the most horrible discoveries have been made in the Jamaica Reformatory for Xative Hoys, which is situ ated on a hill about nine miles from Kings ton, Some time ago, under the governor ship of Sir William.Grey, a Haptist clergy man was appointed Superintendent of the Reformatory, with a salary of C-100 a year, besides a house and other perquisites. Rut these appear not to havo been sufficient for tho reverend gentleman, who applied tho fond allotted for the four hundred poor boys under his chargo to fattening pigs for the market. Meanwhile the little wretches were starved and growing desperate they actually iought with the pigs for the food thrown to them. Jho miserable creatures were neglected in every possible way. nasty insect, called a tick, well known to every traveler in tho tropics, burrowed into their feet, and as tho doctor had to look af ter ills private patients, tho wounds, which if examined in time, would havo been trill ing, became to serious that amputation of toes or feet wcro luctssary in no less than eljdity cases, Starvid aud neglected, the lads bicanio unruly. The oll'enders were then shackled together iu pairs and cou signed lo ihe cells, where tome were forgot ten for three days and left without food or drink. All this nt last came to light by lucre accident, i ho boys wero entrusted with knives lo cut duwn somo guinea crass out side, in chargo (f one warden only; they naturally used their liberty to satisfy the cravings ol hunger by plundering the neigli boring gardens. The owners did not dare (o interfere, but reported the matter to th Governor. This ltd to investigation and re form, and wo understand that Lord Carnar von has, in a ttrongly-wordcd dispatch, de nounced this horrible affair as a disctace to Die colony and to the v, hole Government. I oiufy J-uir, Our Gold Colni. nisTonicAi, SKnton .or tiie vamoos DENOMINATIONS. Tno following historical sketch of our gold coinage is condensed from an exhaustive pa per ofMr. 0. W. Wright, in tho Milwaukee Journal of Commerce. 1. The double-eagle, or $20 piece. Coin ago of tho double eagle was authorized by tho actofMarch 3, 1819. Its weight is 010 grains. Its fineness is 900. (This technical form of expression means that 900 parts in 100 aro puro metal, tho other 100 parts are alloy.) Tho total coinage of tho $20 gold piece up to Juno 30, 1877, the close of the last fiscal year.was $809,593,440. Tho amount is far greater thin that of all tho other coin age of the United States. It is tho im perial coin of our counlry, nt onco massive in weight and regal in appearance. The Eagle, or $10 piece. Its coinago was authorized by the act of April 2, 1792. The weight was first established by law at 270 grains, bat was changed forty-two years aftciwards, by the act of Juno 23, 1834, to :5S grains, where it has remained ever fincc. Its fineness was, in tho beginning, 9103, but was changed, by the act of Juno 2S, 1S34, tho samo act that lowered its weight, to S99, Two years and a half subsequently, its fineness was increased less than one part in a thousand to 900. Its weight and fineness have remained thus fixed to the present day. Tho total coinago of t Ills noblo picco of American money, up to June 80, 1877, was $5C,707,220 less than onc-fourtccntii of the total coinago of tho imperial doublo ea gle. 3. Tho half-eagle, or $5 piece This ele gant coin has undergonoj tho same vicissi tudes as the caglo. Its coinago was authori zed by the same act of April, 2, 1792. Its weight was 135 grains and its fiocness 916J. Dy the act of June 23, 1831, its weight was reduced to 129 grains and its fineness to 899,- !25. Dy tho act of January 18, 1837, its fineness was slightly raised to tho uuifonu standard of 900. Its weight aud fineness havo thus lemained to our time. Its total coinage, up to the close of the last fiscal year was $69,412,815. 4. The quarter-eagle, or $2.50 piece. This fine coin belongs to tho samo family with the eagle and half-eagle. Its coinago was au thorized, its weight and fineness correspond ingly altered by the samo acts. The statuto of 1792 made its weinht 075 grains and its fineness 910. Its weight was reduced to 015 grains and its fineness to 899,225 by the actoflS34. The act of 1837 raised its fine ness to 900. Its total coinago up to Juno 30, 1877, was $20,975 5. The dollar. This pretty littlo gold piece was created by tho act of March 3, 1849, tho Kama act that authorized the coinago oflthe doublo eagle. It lias remained unchanged. Its weight is 25.8 grains and its fineness 900. Tho total coinago up to the close of tho last fiscal year was $19,345,438. 6. Three Dollar Piece. An act of Feb ruary 21, 1853, establishing this irregular coin. Its weight 77.4 grains, and its fineness 900, aro of the normal standard, and have not been changed by subsequent acts. Its total coinago up to June 30, 1S77, was $1,300, 032. It is hardly necessary to state that all these gold coins are legal tender to an un. limited amount. The Federal ttatute re quires, however, that the weight should not be materially reduced by attrition. Thus it will bo scon, there are six pieces of gold coinage in tho United States. The doublc-eaglo, tho threo dollar piece, the dol lar piece all of lato coinago havo not been changed in weight or fineness. Ono of the cailicst acts of Congress authorized tho coin ago of the eagle, the half eagle and tho quar ter eagle. They remained of tho samo weight and fineness during moro than forty years. Dy tho Act of Juno 23, 1834, the weight and fineness wero both materially re duced. Two years and a half subsequently, by the act of January 18, 1837, tho fineness was in creased by less than one part in a thousand. Tho standard of weight and fineness has re mained tho samo ever since for all gold coin. The fineness is nine parts of puro gold and ono part of alloy ; or 900 parts in 1,000, as it is generally expressed. The standard of weight including alloy with the gold is 5.8 grains to the dollar; the doublo cagleis twenty times that (510 grains); th o eagle. ten times (258 grains) ; the half eagle, five times (139 grains); tho threo dollar piece, threo times (774 grains) ; the quarter caele, J times that (045 grains. The question is sometimes asked : Of what is the alloy made? In gold coin, it was, at first, a compound of silver and copper. It was forbidden by statuto that the alloy should bo moro than half silver. It is now nearly all copper owing to advances in tho art of assay ing and Improved methods in coinago. Tho total amount of gold coinage, up to Juno 30, 1877, was $933,159,095. I'opo Tins' Successor. Tho new popo was born at Carpenetto. iu tho ilioccso of Arragul, on March 2, 1810, and is sixty-eight years of ago. Ho was ere- ated Cardinal on December 19, 1853. Ho is archbishop of Perouse and chamberlain of the pope. Ilo was to havo been created car dinal at the request of a Protestant, King Leopold I, of llclpiuin, to whom he had been sent as Nuncio by Gregory XVI j but on the death of the latter, Pius IX, yielding to An tonelli, allowed feven years to elapse before appointing him.

EOMGTHINO CONCEUNINO TIIE MAKSllrlELD MANSION THAT WAS BDAKED. The Boston Traveler has tho following concerning the mansion of Daniel Webster, situated in the soutneastern part of the town of Marshfield, Mass., which was totally de stroyed by fire on the morning of the 14th ult.: "The building was owned by Mrs. Fletcher Hebster, who, with her (son, was the sole occupant, and was insured in tht Massachusetts JIutual insurance company for $G,20O. The lady and her son, upon dis covering that the destruction of the mansion was only a question of time, set heroically at work, nnd in the short time allotted them succeeded in rescuing a cpjantity of the sil ver plate, pictures and some other articles, priceless as mementoes of Mr. Webster. It was thought that the valuable library had been destroyed when the intelligence first spread among the residents of the neighbor hood, but investigation showed that it had been removed some time since, Tho build ing was quaint and after no especial style of architecture, the various additions being ad ded with moro regard to the" taste and con veuience of the owner than general effect. The mansion set back fiom the road some 300 yards, was painted white and nearly hidden by the elms which haye become so famous. "I he original owner was Captain John Thomas, a near and dar friend of Mr. Webster, and it is related that the latter upon visiting the spot became charmed with its great natural beauty and entered in to negotiations for its purchase. Captain Thomas became, however,financially embar rassed, and upon the urgent request of Mr. Webster, he and his wife occupied a room in the house until his decease. The house wa surrounded by a wide piazza and to the west of the old building Mr. Webster had constructed an L., after a peculiar Gothlo Pattern for his library. This room was light ed by colored glass, which made it a favor ite resort of all who paid the mansion a visit. Adjoining the library were the drawing room and a small reception room. To th rear of these apartments was the immense dining hall, some fifty feet in length. To the east of this was the main hall, about 125 feet in length, running the whole length of the building. At the easterly side of the bouse was the small sitting room, connected by a hall with the breakfast room. Passing through a hall one passed into tho large kitchen, in the rear of which was situated the extensive dairy and woodshed. Upon the second floor, in the front of the bouse, was the loom in which Daniel Webster died on tho right of the hall. Opposito to this on tho left of the hall, a large bed room suc ceeded by eight rooms of the same descrip tion, These apartments were very large. At the rear end of the room in which Mr. Webster expired was another large bed room, and over the library on iht extreme nest of the upper story, was called the 'Cas triiHi,' so called because it had no entrance except from the bed rooms on either side, t-oinc 400 feet from tho mansion was the barn, aud near by the various outbuildings, but these were not destroyed," The articles Hived were but a small part of those iu the house. The servants lost great er part of their clothing. Mrs. Webster savtd some of her wearing apparel, Nothing iu the upper stories was removed from the building. Of tho fine collection of china nothing was saved, although a part of the iilvr was. A large punch-bowl, presented to Daulel Wtb.ter by the Paudwich glass compauy was lost. The dining room con tattled some costly antlqui furniture and fine engravings which wero lost, A portion of the library and the piauo in the music room were laved. Among tho portraits saved were those of Lord Ashburton, Judge Ptory, three of Daniel HVbster, one of Mts. Dauiel II ebster, those of their sons, Calouel Tletch- one er and Mnjcr Kdward-an ell , am ig of iu I flies .presented to Mr. Hebster by the Z pecor of Ikazil.
