Tho rucont arwunl of tho check
stunip conlrnet to tho Ornpliie
Cunipany, of Now York, by Commig
aioner 1 ratt, would have botn worthy
of tho Indian or whisky rings. In thoir
fialniioat days. Tho printor who had
ho contract for fiirnwhiiig tho two
ccnt Btninpr) wan authorired by tho
t'oiiiniinsiunor of Intornal Itovonue to
print, the aUmps directly on chocks,
and charge tha partioa ordering thorn
at tho ruto of ono cent for every im
prcasion lukon from platea containing
not moro than aix atampa. The con
Yonicuco of having the stanipa thus
printed on tho check has mndo tho
use of thorn in that way almost tinl
vernal, and as tho government received
ita full iDVcnuo, tho printing of tho
atampa was merely a niattor of buni
ncso botwoon the printer and hia cunto
mora. A formal proposition to print
the atainps for uvarly ono-lhiru the
prlco charged by tho contractor In
duced tho department to invite pro
posals lor tho work, and thus protect
tho bunincrM public from the wanton
exaction of from thirty to forty thou
sand dullara a year for the benefit of
contractor. The proposals wore duly
invitod by advertisement, and a varioty
of propitious won, mibmitted from
tho printora of tbo conntry. The low
est bid was three dollars and fifty cents
per thousand impressions, being about
sixty per cent, less than bad boon
charged under tho old system ; but the
Graphic Company, now publishing tho
administration organ In New ork,
proposed to pay the govornmcnt a
bonus of twonty-one hundred dollar a
month for exclusive authority to print
stumps upon checks, and to receive
such compensation therefor from cus
tomers as Commissioner Pratt should
approve, and that bid was accepted
and tho contract awarded on it.4n vio
lation of every principle of justice to
uie DirsmcM pnouc. ,
Hud the lowest bid been accepted
by Commissioner Pratt, every business
man could havo had his checks stamped
at about one-third tho cost kerotoiore
paid, but the Graphic Company are to
pay a bonus to tho government of
twenty -nvo tliouminU twouuiidrwJ dol
lars annually lor the privilege of print
ing stumm upon checks, and charging
business men such price as Commis
sioner Pratt may assent to. Thus the
Graphic Company contractors am to
first collect from the bnsinoM public
twenty-llvo thousand two hundred dol
lars to puy tho bonus to tho govern
moot, and then extort from tbo busi
ness of the country aa much moro for
thoir profits as thoy can make M r. Pratt
agree to. Uo may mako it ono, two
or three cents an impression, and tbore
is no appeal from bis decision, lie
must, first of all, assent to a larger al
lowance thau tho lowest bidder pro
posed to enahlo tho contractors to uav
their bonus to the government, and if
no glioma mako it one cent an impres
sion, he simply authorises tbo Graphic
Company to extort from thirty to forty
thousand dollars of profit front our
paralyzed business circles to sustain a
party organ that supports the admin
istration through evil and good report
if he should, as he could, make It two
cents an Impression, be will authorise
the collection of over ono hundred thou
sand dollars of plunder from tho busi
ness of tho country. Let it bo bortio
in mind that there aro no perquisites
or profits in this contract beyond tho
authorized allowance to bo mado by
Commissioner Pratt for tbo actual
printing ot stamps upon checks, and
the contract must contemplate a aysto
matio and Inmorativu extortion Irotn
commerce and trade to sustain a party
organ. - ,
. W hat Commissioner Pratt will allow
the Granitic Comnanv in not vnt known
to the public, although it ia doubtless
known to tho contractors. Mr. Pratt
is an honest but a weak man, and he
will be readily induced, under the pres
sure of politico! necessity, to make a
liberal allowance to one ol the vary low
papers that still play the now unfaxh.
louablo and unhoalthy role of organ.
If sach an agreement had not been
oithor oxprossed or implied between
the government and the contractors,
no such contract would havo been en
tertained foramoment,and tba Granitic
Company doubtless well understand
tnnt thoy aro not to sutler by printing
stamps ana grinding in tue prison
nouso oi tue administration.
Besides, ' elections aro just coin
ing, and contributions are needed to
debauch the ballot, and tha cry of party
necessity win ocno in me earn ol Com
missioner Pratt whon ho is called npon
to fix a liberal rata for tho onran con
tractors, to bo literally filched from tho
business interests of the nation. View
ed in any light, it is a most dangerous
and demoralizing contract, and liable
to tho grossest abuse, and to protect
extortions iront too people, it is one
not contemplated by any existing law,
and is In defisnce of every principle
that has ever controlled government
contracts. It is a public declaration
that the government and a cotorie of
partisan contractors shall make com
mon cause-to plunder the public, after
the government receives its legitimate
revenue from stamps at its own lawful
price, and it reserves to Itsoll and its
contractors the right to say whetbor
me punno snail ue plundered thirty,
forty, fifty, one hundred or two hun
dred thousand dollars per annum, to
keep party naiiers in tuno. The ac
ceptance of such a bonus, that ia to bo
collected from the businoss of the coun
try, is in itmlf monstrous fraud. If
tho prlco of bank stamps should be
more than two cent each, the govern,
mont can say so by statute, and the
peoplo would pay it ; but whon a bonus
is accepted as a blind ta enable con
tractors to col loot twice, or thrice or
quadruple the bonus from the public
tor the individual profit of political con
tractors, the government descends to

A CII1ST WITH 175,000 JN DOUBLOONS
FOUND.
'i'horo have always been for many
years past vague rumors flouting about,
that along tbo Louisiana and Missis-sippi'-rxjiurt
tho men of Imlltto had
buried treasure. Evory now and then
we hoar of expedition starting on a
search tor the bidden booty, but what
may be thoir succoas is never known.
It will be remembered, doubtless,
that soino years ago a certain family
hero reooivod from tho dying lips of
one ot Liantto s men tlio description ol a
spot where a chest of doubloons was
to bo found. Tbo two sous still to J but
never returned. A third of the family
started but was drowned In a storm.
This fatality has in a measure damp
ened tbo ardor, of many, and wa now
hear of fowar such trip. ( ' ! I
Tbo quiet of tho coast has, bowovor,
just been seriously disturbed, and as wo
loarn from Mr. Holly, of tlio United
States Circuit Court, just .returned
from Bayou La Battre, thirty miles
this side Mobile, on the New Orleans
Railroad, there is a money fever rag
ing. It appears that five days ago, at
Devil's Ilole, a curious craft of schoon
er rig put in. She was very small,
but had tbo appearance of having come
some distance, her build being unlike
anything seen hereabouts for years.
Her crow consisted of two men and u
dog. Tho men conversed well in Eng
lish, and from their appearance wero
evidently connected with the sea.
Coming to anchor at sundown just
outside, a man came ashoro, anil row
ing up to a fisherman at tho mouth of
tbo llayou asked him if he would pilot
them up to this Devil's Hole. They
gave bitn at onco forty dollars in gold
on this agreement, and accordingly the
other man on board tho schooner was
signalled. IIo rowed in with spades,
lanterns, oto., in tho boat and all got
in. Piloted by tho fisherman they
went up tho llnyou four miles and
commenced work. '
Thoy Bolected a spot from a diagram
they consulted, and after digging un
til 12:15 that night, the spade touched,
a motal box. They becamo very ox
cited, dug faster, and at last lilted nut
ot tho hole, some seven feet in depth, a
strong iron chest, corroded and rusted.
Breaking it open with nn mm bar,
they wore rewarded by a sight ol $75,
000 in gold coin. Tbo fisherman was
excited, and hardly knew what to do.

Under tbo above caption the Colum
bia litrald presents the following lucts.
showing tho extravagances and cor
ruptions of Radicalism in this Htute.
Tho editor ol tho WeraM is Chief Clerk
in the office ot Internal Affairs, and
gathered bis figures from tho book.
Ho says:
Democrats can not and will not ob
ject to the most rigid and unrelenting
scrutiny ot tha Xienditures incurred
last winter. Tbey will demand, bow
ovor, that 6irnros, instead of men) as
sertions, be given the public, in order
that a tair deduction may be reached.
n hat, men, do the ngtireg sliowr
First, that the number of Members
and Senators, under the now basis of
representation provided by tho Con
stitution is double tbat of former Lcir-
islatures, entailing twice tho amount
of exponso in the matter ot salary,
miloago, stationery, stamps, ic
Second, that heretofore the contin
gent fund in the bands of tho chief
clorlc ot the House lias ranged, under
Radical rule, from within a fraction of
150,000 nor annum, down to f 18.000
whilo tho present Democratic Chief
iiorx, Air. Adorn Woolover, has had
loss than 14,000 of a fund at his dis
posal. Third, that tho total expenses of the
House, last winter, under Dumocintio
rulo, and with a membership double
that of preceding ones, was S6,000 leu
than thtd of the session previous.
Fourth, that tho expenses of the
House, last winter, with two hundred
Members under Domocratio control,
wa srwii fAoKovimf dollars less than the
Radical Senate, with only fitly mom
born. .. .., ,,.,.
Now, here aro the facts and flirurea.
Tho general appropriation bilf of the
last session, originating in a Dcmocrutc
House, fixed tho amount of publio ex
penditure at precisely the same fliruro
of tho year previous, when under Rad
cal rulo, notwithstanding tho number
oiitepreseniatives hod boon doubled,

voriflod by flguros in tho office of tho
Auditor General, tho publio for thom
selvos can fairly judgo as to the rela
tive claims of the two parties to econo
my, as well as to tho moudacions charge
mot the Democratic party has com
milted or permitted extravao-nncc in
tho handling or disbursement ot any
publio money under or within its con

Hard and Soft Water. There Is
a notion quite prevalent In the minds
oi me peoplo that tho drinking of bard
water is injurious to hoaltb, and most
physicians have warned people to so
far as possible avoid tho practice. But
an. ucmuriij, am jangnon pnysician,
who hot devoted much tlina to InVusli
gating the subject, finds as the result
of his observations that hard water is
not only clearer, cooler, and moro froo
from air, and more agroeablo to the
taste thsn soft, but that it is less liablo
to tbo absorption of organic niattor and
to the sustenance of the life of symotic
organisms, or to exert solvent proper
ties upon salts of iron or upon leaden
conducting pipes. And he claims that
the lime salts exort a beneficial Influ
ence. It I asserted that practical
tost of the truth of this now theory is
to be had in the case of the residents
of mountainous districts, where tho
water is most Invariably bard, and
whore the inhabitant exhibit the host

Ono ot the most despicable cliarao
actors that disfigure society with ita
presence U tho syoophunt. Uo Is al
ways obsequious to those in power, al
way fawning upon tlioso who have
patronage to bostow. In politics this
class ot persons will "grease and swal
low tbomselves" with the most romur
kublo skill, uud a faculty which only
Innate muanuus or long practice could
produce, -
The reader has seen those follows
by the score, and time without num
ber. Just previous to on election or a
convention, they will denouncocertuin
cundidutcs with violence, and li cup up
on thorn all manner ol vituperation,
declaring most emphatically that thoy
are unfit to hold any position of trust
or houor, and that their election would
bo a triumph of fraud and villainy,
and alarmingly disastrous to tho coun
try. But as soon as these persons are
nominated, and especially ullor they
are elected to office where patronage
is to bo bestowed or holpBocurod,tbeso
virtuous denouncers of tho men will
got down on their knees to tho officers,
humbly uruve a slico of bread and but
ter, and toady in tho most disgusting
manner to the Individual in authority
they bad defamed in privato life.
Can humanity present itself in a
moro pitiable and contemptible aspect?
Can. what ought to bo manhood get
down to any lower debasement? For
a serf or a slave this abject littleness
might be excusable ; hut for a frco
American a sovereign by birthright
it is not only uiipardonuhlc, out
nuascutiiig.
And next to the debasement of tho
tradncer, is the acceptance of hi sub
jection by the one ho soeks to nroniti-
io. no must Know mo noiiownetwol
the profession of friendship, and havo
some appreciation of tho unspcukitble
depths ot contempt to which the being
has sunk who can thus stultify himself
ior a little pelf ; and yet he accepts
tho empty tender of good will, take
tho lick-spittle into his confidence, and
they mutuully plan to further each
other's ends.
It is tho most common occurrence
for politicians to thus exhibit tbom
selves before tbo world ; and, wo pen
tbo words with a sense of sbamn, it is
no uncommon thing for tho poopMo to
take up these very men ami elect them
tootlleel
There is oomothing noble in tho lor
givenoa of an injury. A man is nev
er more God-like tbnn when ho can
pardon an enemy who is deserving of
clemency, nut this taking or leprosy
to the boiaoiu i thi making oommon
bed in sliino wilh pestilent corruption ;
this collusion of (inducer uud truducod
for the spoils of ofiico and the purpo
ses of political piihlio robbery, is so
opposite'to tho other that it may be
classed as diabolical.
' Reader, havo you seen anything ot
this kind of men ? Do you recall any
instances which have (alien' under

politicians of tho times aro tree from

1 There aro many fanners, Intelligent
and well Informed on most subject,
but unacquainted with vegetable physi
ology, who firmly believe that different
varieties of potatoes (Irish and swoot'i
win, li planted together, mix with each
other so as to partako of the charac
teristics of both. But this not so it
does not and cannot happen.
Potatoes or tubers uro not seed in
tho proper Bcnsoof tho word, but parts
of the plant ; and now plants propa
gated from tubers, roots, branches,
vines, buds, or leaves, will bo the same
in all respects as tho plants from whichl
iney were taken, and ol which thoy
nro in reality oniy a divided part. iNow
varieties in nature uro produced bv
sood. But plants, from some cause, do
sometimes vary in some part in color
or tiabit or growth which may be
confined to a single branch or root;
tliese aro called bud variations or sports.
and occur uninfluenced by other plants
growing near. Art takes advantage
of these sports to produce new varie
ties. A branch may assume a pendu
lous habit, or tho leaves may becomo
variegated ; tho gardnur takes this
sporting branch and buds or grafts it
on some congenial slock, and produces
a weeping or variegated plant, as tho
caso may bo.
Tho sum is truo with tubers ; a red
potato may be planted, and In ten acres
there mny, perhaps, bo ono plant that
may prttduco yellow potatoes, or a
part yellow and a part rod, of but a
single tuber showing but a stripo of
yeiiow tins is a sport ami can be per
petuated. If a tuber is bedded that is
part red and part yellow, the eyes on
the red part will produco plant that
will produco rod Mitatocs, whole those
coming irom tho yollow part will pro-
uuco yenow lioioiooa. I -liud one or
moro such sports nearly evory year ;
this year I found ono hill of Red Span
ish that was part red and part yollow,
and on two dill'ercnt occasions 1 found
tho Red Bermuda showing sprout,
which I propagutcd for a whilo, but
finding it liko the red in all respect
but color, I discarded it : and now an
other parly has tho Name thing, dubs
it with Ins namo, and sends it forth
into tho world as a now thing. This
may gratify personal vanity, but the
world gains nothing, for the chaniro is
only in color. These sports aro not
caused by contact with other plants, as
it happens with mo every year that
plunts of two different varieties will be
planted together (accidentally, as I
ncvor plant more than one in a nluco
intentionally), and they aro as distinct
When dug as others not in such close

THE fiANOVAGK OKBWA'S.
A Hpunish ambassador, of princely
birth, aoerodited to the Court of SU
James, dining with King James tho
First of England, expressed his ideas
to tho King that bo was always of
opinion mat some oone oi sign might
lio established whereby a universal
uudersluuding could beohuiiiied among
nations ol different languages. 'The
King, a vain monarch, and anxious to
display to tho ambassador tbo resourc
es of his kingdom, immediately an
swered that ho had himself given this
subject much attention, that bo bad
instituted a chair of language in ono
of his northern universities. - Tho am
bassador, in (testacies, insisted that ho
should set out immediately, and real
izo tho visions of his youth. Tho ro
iiioiislraiico of tho King as to tbo per
ils and distaneo of the journey, Ac,
wus of no avail, and tlio ambassador
si iii tctl on his Journey. Although the
King wits a notorious boastor, he did
not wish that foreign courts should
lose respect for him, and started eou-1
ricrs mist liuste to ujipriso th city.ond
premised his favor to get him out of
tho scritjio. It so happened that there
was a butcher in the city who bad only
one eyo, hut brass enough for a dozen.
The provost and magistrates according
ly iu solemn council assembled, alter
tho arrival of tho King's niesage,sum.
inoued tho butcher to their presence,
and offered hitn a rich reward if ha
would go by tbolr directions. Ho wa
accordingly Initiated into tho niysto
ries, which wus to bo silent, wbntever
was spoken ; and the second, to get ac
customed to make a bow in a profes
sor's rogiinunluls. j
1 bo ambassador at last arrived, and
was received with great honors. Ac
cording to his desire, he wa immedi
ately ushered into tho hall whore Ibo
great prolcssor was in waiting. The
ambassador, on entering, bowed tho
prolcssor bowed ; tho ambassador held
up ono finger tbo prolcssor held up
two fingers; the ambassador held up
three the protessor closed his fist :
the ambassador took an orungo out of
ins pocket tho professor took soino
ont-nieal crumbles out of his pocket;
tne ambassador then bowed anil re
tired to tho council, who wore anx
iously waiting tho result of the inter
view. Thoy inquired with some trepida
tion, the result of the interview. "O,
a wa grand, replied the ambassador.
"When I entered 1 bowed, by which I
meant to say. I rcscct your learning.
1 he prolcssor bowed bis thanks to
me. 1 held up one finger, to say there
is ono iiou. lie Held up two, mean
ing, You havo torifotten tho Son. I
held up throe fingers, to acknowledge
me iioiy i iiinly. He beta up bis list,
meaning they are one. I showed him
an orange, to show bitn the produc
tion of my country. Ho showed mo
some out meal bread, to remind me
that nature was good to all. O, he is
a wniidurtul man 1" -
i no nnicner said : "I holool came
into the nsim and looked at bis shoes,
and I looked at mine. Ho held up
ono finger, to tell mo 1 had but one
eyo. I held up two fine-crs, to let him
know that my one eyo was as good a
ins two. no held up Hi lee lingers, to
lot mo know that we had but throe

insult, and shook my fist at him. He
sow 1 was angry, and offered me an
orange, but 1 told him oat-meal bread

baa no home has not tho sweetest
pleasures of lite ; he feels not the
thousand endearments that cluster
around tbat hallowed spot to fill the

lot, you will liud a friendly welcome

The chosen partner to your toil has a
smile of approbation whon other have
dssertod, a hand of hopo when all oth

ehorob with prattling gleo and joyous
laugh, will drive all sorrow from your
careworn brow, and cucloso it in tho
wreaths of domestic bliss. .

Something worth Knowing. Eve
ry littlo whilo, writes a correspondent,
wo rcaa in ino papers of soino ono
who has stuck a rusty nail into his
foot, or kneo, er hand, or some other
portion of his person, and tho lock-jw
Las resulted thoralrom, of which the
patient died. If evory person in tho
world was aware of a perfect remedy
for all such wounds, and would apply
it, then all such rojiort must cease.
But although we can givo tho romody,
wo cannot enforce tbo application.
Some will not employ It because thoy
think it too simple ; others havo no
faith in it whon thoy read ll: whilo
others think such a wound of small
account and not worth fussing over,
until it is too lute to do irnod. Yet all
such wounds can bo healed without
tmch fatal consequences a follow
them. The romody is simple, almost
always on hand, and can be applied
oy any ono, ana What is Hotter is in
latiiiiie. jl is simply to smoke such a
wound or bruise that is inflamed, with
burning wool or woolen loth. Twen
ty minute in the smoke of wool will
take the pain out of the worst wound
and repented once or twice, ft will al
lay the worst cose of inflammation
arising Irom any wound wo over saw.
Peoplo may sneer at tho "old woman's
romody" as much as they ploaso, but
wuun nicy are alllietwl, just lot them
try It. It has saved mauy lives and
much pain, and is worthy ol boing

BECOMING DEMORALIZED.
' Not long since Judge Kdmouds
who, wo ilium, inigut, do in potior busi
ness sent a circular loiter to tho grand
army of olllco-holders Uirouguout the
United States, requesting subscriptions
for campaign purposes. It was simply
a request, on the face of k, but it wa
in reality a demand, and the circular
contained instructions to each respon
dent to be particular in giving bis
State, county, and post-ofllce address,
in order that proper credit might be
given that ho might be continued in
ofHco, was tho clour Kngllsh el It. But
one of those otllce-bolders a atoro
koeper in Kansas seems to have lost
his resect lor tho Administration to
havo become absolutely demoralized,
In tact since the third term prospect
becamo dimmed, lu response to tho
modest and unassuming circular sent
him by Judgo Edmunds that wicked
anil ungrateful storekeeper mailed tho
following reply :
"1 am not a little surprised at the
audacity whichcbaraclir.es the demand
you niuko uHin mo for money. I un
derstand you mean simply that if 1 do
not band over the amount my commis
sion will berevoked. Let it bo revoked.
then, for certainly 1 do not roooirnizo
your right to make any such demand
any moro than I recognize tho right of
tue ntguwaymnn ta place bis pistol to
my hoad and demand my money or my
lite. And if tbo Republican party has
arrived at tho point which requires tbo
use of such means to porpetuuto it, my
opinion is tbat tho sooner wo are rid
of tbo party and very many of its
leaders the better it will be for our
oommon country. And iu view of the
foregoing tacts, I must beg to be ex
cused from your very modest demand."
Tbat man is evidently no longer a
Republican but bo ought to bo con
sidered a republic ho is so ungrateful.
We trust Judge Edmunds will see to
it that his successor is immediately un
pointedprovided be can find any one

Tux Southern Goose and the
Northern Ganiikr. An Iowa corres
Kudent ot tbo Chicago Tribune has
I'urnishedVhat papor with tho statistics
showing that during tbo past six
mouths fifty-seven cases of outrages
upon woman have been porpetrntod in
Iowa. This is a sufficiently startling
array of horrid crimo, but what makes
it ovun mare intollerablo is tho accom
panying fact that of the fifty-seven
criminals only throe have boon brought
to justice, and ovon of those throe not
ono has had a severe punishment in-
dieted upon him. Tho Chicago Tri
burn says in regard to Ibis, that "it is i
a sad commentary on the condition of
Iowa justice." "The fault iu that
State," adds tbo 7Vifcus, "appears to
bo oxcessivo tendorness of heart on tho
part of tho peoplo who rulo."
Whon crimes of any sort are com
mitted in the South, and the criminal
by any means escapes recognition and
conviction, the 'Tribune and the news
papers which follow in ll lead always
ascribe tho cause to the pernicious
doctrine of "State sovereignty," and
the disloyalty of the peoplo. And yet
there are unsophisticated creatines
who think that what is sauce for tho
Southern goose ought to be sauco for
tho Northern gander. But that isn't
