for Conkling after all.
Mr. Wright, from the si nate Commit
tee on Civil Servioe and Betrenehment,
reported lviek the hill tiling the salary
of the President at fSo.OOO |wr annum,
together with the menage of the Prv>.
dent vetoing the same, and reeomiuem!.
Ed the bill ;be passed notwithstanding
the objections of the President. Mr

the Committee to request the senate to

Short time *ge>. who >-iiel in his uie---
gige that $50,000 was not too much for a
president to live on, although all the
presidents before him get along with
$ '5,000 ami eliel not complain.
The Washington correspondent of the
World, speaking of the appointment of
Don Cameron as Secretary of \V;.r, say -
The appointment of Mr. Cameron i> j
claim oil by all the {politicians, ever,
those friendly to Mr. Conk ling, to b<
the result of a bargain between tlie
I'resident and the old Winnebago chief
to pledge the Pennsylvania d ligation t.
support the nomination of the New
York Senator at Cincinnati, for the
Presidency. It has been known for
some time that the President has desir
ed tits nomination of Mr. C'onkling, and
has warmly supported it in private s:uce
his letter a year ago to General Harry
White, of Pennsylvania, abandoning tin
third term for himself. Now he favors
him so openly that it was conceded t
the capital to-day that the whole power
of tlie Administration would be throw n
henceforth in Mr. ConklingV interest
Senator Cameron has also supported Mr
Coukling. and has thtown his iufluena
against his leading rivals, Blaine and
Morton. The coalition between th.
President and himself was, therefore
easily brought about and the old Penn
sylvania politician rewarded by a cabi
net api>o.utmeut for his son, the tenun
of which is to be continued if Couklii -
is elected. Mr. Conkling's friends I •
to-night the result of to-day's wor
that he will go into the Cincinnati Con
vention with the delegations front N-. w
York and Pennsvlvaina united for hit:
on the second ballot. This bold step i:
the Presidential canvass has eau-i '.
what may be termed a sensation hen
among the Republicans, with a decided
flattering of the supporters of Morton
and Blaine.
The beauties of the Civil Bights Bill
are well illustrated in the item be! w.
which we find in the Chambersburg
Valley Spirit:
CIVIL Knurrs BILL. —About two or
three days ago a negro came to this place
and went to the American House, f
which Mrs. fc>. K. Boyd is the landlady,
and asked for lodging, which w as grant
ed. Before retiring that night he order
ed his breakfast for seven o'clock next
morning, and promptly on time he war
called but his lordship did not respond
An hour passed by, the breakfast be
came cold, the darkey went down to
Tbos. Whites barber saloon and fixed
himself np. He then went back to the
hotel and asked for his morning meal,
and was told Utat it had been ready at
the time specified, but as he did not
come it had been removed. Mrs. Boyd
also told his that she would get hint an
other breakfast which was done, but
when the Ethiopian found it was served
in the kitchen he left in disgust, declar
ing he would sue her for violating the
Civil Bights bill. He tried to get it done
here, but was discouraged by the law -
vers. On Monday morning last, Mrs.
Boyd left for Harrisburg to answer for
her "violations," the result of which we
hare not learned.
A German came into the Reporter
office the other day and wanted to know
about the presidential race, and being a
little busy we gave him the following
bird's eye view of it:
Morton may find himself too light in
the balance for the nomination for pres
ident, because more-tow is wanting all
the time, and then besides til-den New
York will interfere, and Ohio has f/.ur
man too, and it is not so Main that
Maine will fill the chair, for the whole
thing may get black and burnt -w won t
travel. A cork-ling is too light too, ami
they have a heavy barker in Jersey, and
a fine brty-yird to draw the people it;
Delaware, and there is a strong hanxoci
in Pennsylvania which make- a big
kuck-er-e-koo all over the country, ami
then ken-dricks in behind too. The Teu
ton left, saying, Yaw, dat i-h all glear
un the democrats make ilay gosh.
Grant has appointed his Att. General
Pierrepont, as minister to England i
place of poker and Emma mine Sehenk,
A Washington despatch of 22 ult., says
The cabinet changes to-day and the
nomination of Judge Pierrepont as min
ister to England were the occasion ol
great surprise in all quarters. 80 care
fully had the intentions ofthe President
in this regard been concealed that with
the exception of Mr. Fish and the gen
tlemen directly and personally interest
ed the other members of the cabinet
were not aware of the arrangement un
til the nominations had been sent to the
senate.
Judge Pierrepont will take immediate
steps to depart for England and Judge
Taft will without delay take charge of
the dapartment of justice.
Don Cameron, Simon's oldest boy has
been appointed Secretary of War, in
place of Judge Taft. So Don gets the
place out of which his dad was kicked
during Lincoln's administration.
Some fellows will evidently have u
good thing and a good time out of the
funds appropriated by the legislature for
a state building. The Morning Patriot
says of this house that it was put up at a
cost of $17,000, though the legislature
liberally approriated $40,000 for the pur
pose. There was not time enough to
put up a more ambitious edifice that
would have consumed all the money,
but some of the newspuper correspond-,
ents are wondering how the one that i
has been built could cost so much. The J
accounts in the Philadelphia newspa-j
pen say tire room of Gov. ff artranft has
Wen fitted up in elegant slvlo with

ey to a business tirui charging more than
tiie legal rate of interest, iijh'H the fail
ure'of the firm obtained judgment for
its kail and interest at the rate stipulat
ed. The property ot the firm was s*il*l
siihj* et to the lien of the judgment ob
uined by the bank. The purchaser
resisted the pavtnent of the hank's
claim in full, alleging that only legal
interest could Ik- reeovere.l, ami the
common pleas court of Schuylkill county
decided that the usurious interest must
he deducted from the amount of the
judgment. The supreme e* urt reverses
his decision on the ground that no
•bird party can succeed to the rights of
the debtor or take ud\uutage of the rein
ed.es o|>en to him in resisting the pay
ment ot an illegal rate of interest. The
•urt says upon this point: "The act ot

from an eve witness, giving tho follow-

ted on the occash n of the funeral *f
Kamr.i.-i, King of Otinyor, in Central
Africa. An immense grave or j it, cupa
fcle of holding several hundred people,
had been dug, at tlie bottom of which
the wives i f the defunet Kinp had l>een
placed in the form ><( a ring, to he in
readiness to receive uj>ou their knees
the corj sc of their late tyranical and
harberona master. Several regiment
of the royal guard had been -cut on the
preceedinp night to -ileutly surround j
sotue of the neighboring villape.-. Tin
first human being, l>e it man, woman or
child, that made its exit from the sur
rounded huts was forcibly seized and
carried off, and the captives entrapped
in this manner conducted towards the
pit prepared fir the funeral. Here there
commenced the most horrible scene.
The limbs of those js-or creatures, arm-,
and legs, were broken by the soldier-.
The lamentations and cries of th-spnir
of the victims intermingled with the fa
natical crowd, and one by one they wi rt
thrown into the paj ing pulf below.
Then commenced the heating of the
drums, the flourish of tmmjK-ts, the
piercing soup 1 < f the whi.-tlc and pipe
which, together wall tiio violent \ici
fc rat ion- of the irowd, drowned the
ries of the victims. The soil dug out
if the pit the previous day was then
thrown L;,< k into the monster grave.
The fanatical spectators of the dismal
Iraina, as soon as it vva- filled "up, coin-1
mcnccd to dunce on the summit of the
grave, stamping the soil down with all
heir might, so as to fori i a hard, c>:n
a -t layc r above those btirii I alive. All
the larnentatc i.s having ceased, not hint
. was left to imlicate the ceremony of the
. abomni.'. ilc ;< pulti.ri ; the noise of the
iustrumeni- hail ic-a-ed also, and the

themselves, and admiring the greatness
of the King whose names demanded

The town of Lucas was all excitement.
For some time a hand of robljUre have

dred dollars they contrived a plan to rub
him. Armed with shot guns and the
habiliments of sportsmen they went to
the mill-dam and began to shoot snakes.
The unsuspecting miller went out to
view the indiscriminate massacre of the
progeny of mother Eve's beguiler and
would have been minus all the money
he had but for the timely interposition
of the officers from Mansfield who were
in pursuit of thorn. Huns and pistols
were freely used. Three of the four
