As tlie Aotooits forctharlowed last
week, Mr. Conkling lifter several days
calm deliberation has dcollued tbe offlfje
of Jndge. of lbs 8npreme Court of tbe
United States. He would have made an
eminent ornament of tbat exalted posi
tioned bare brought to lis duties mag
nificent legal abilities and an impartial
Judgment There can be no doubt tbat
President Artfinr made the nomination
In good falth,and there is less occasion to
doubt that the ex"-8enator debated with
hlm!f very seriously before he gave a
definite answer. The country would have
hailed his acceptance of tbe place with
satisfaction. Enemies of Mr. Conkling,
and back-biting enemies of the President,
were opposed to tbe ex-Senators confirm
ation, but they were an insignificant mi
nority. Tbe universal opinion being in
favor of a jurist whose perfect bouesty
was reflected in a long period of pnblio
usefulness where his uncompromising In
tegrity had neTer been questioned ,
Mr. Conkling is yet voting and from
early manhood has neglected to provide
himself with that prop and stay so n c en
nary to the aged, man money and he
may bars felt that now in' the prlmo of
life a practice which will cororunml fir
him an Income of from $50,000 to $100,
000 could not n abandoned to accept a
position which would command but a few
beggarly 'thousands, and besides moke
tltn a judicial recluse, compelled to ket p
aloof, except in an' eminently dignified
way, from politics in which he has long
been a distinguished figure. But there
has yet been established no precedent
why judges of tbe highest judicial body
io the land should not take a band in
National politics if tbey chose. But Mr,
Conkling is a man with a chlvalrio sense
of responsibility which would forbid his
aocepting a judicial posi while realizing
that he would inevitably still be rated as
a factor In politics.
Boscoe Conkling will yet be heard from
and the enemies in his own party who
hare predicted his utter annihilation will
be seriously disappointed to see him rise
Pbcenlx like in 1881 and overthrow all
their airy political castles.
Financial matters are unsettled in
many of the great money centres. Wild
speculation and over-trading is the cause,
and yet the country, taken as a whole.
Mas never more prosperous. A $3,000,
000 failure in Boston last Monday creat
ed some surprise and consternation, un
til it was ascertained tbat tbe principal
creditors of the broken bankers wero
amply secured against loss by good seen
rities. New York might have had
panic on Friday and Saturday of last
week, had not TVra. H. Vanderbilt rush
ed into the Street with $10,000,000 and,
by judicious purchases of his favorite
securities, bolstered up the market and
restored confidence. In Chicago, those
giant operators in provisions and bread'
stuffs, the Armour Brothers, are sending
tbe markets up and down at their plea
sure; but, if by any accident, they should
lose their grip, "what a fall there would
be, my countrymen!" Legitimate trade,
prrseveringly conducted, is tbe only
true road to permanent fortune, and the
only thing that will give financial and
moral stability to a nation.
A queer story comes from Utah that
Brigham Young is still living and that
wben the right time comcs'he will once
more appear among bis people and claim
to have risen from the deaiT. In nil like
lihood the story is a canard, although
there are many who profess to believe it
is true. It is claimed by some persons
who knew the late Mormon President in
timately in life that the corpse which was
buried bore but the remotest resemblanoe
to Brigham. The ways of the wily Mor
mon leaders are something past finding
out and there is no telling what ruse they
might resort to, to arouso tbe supersti
tious awe of their ignorant but credulous
followers.
The irrepressible Capt, Eads hss not
yet abandoned his ship canal scheme.
He is a persuasive lobbyist and is work
ing Congrees with the skill of a veteran.
He is not at all bashful and wben he asks
for anything he asks foreuougb.so that If
begets anything at all he will get plenty.
Just now he is asking tbe Government
for the trifling loan of $18,000,000. Of
course he will have the support of notor
ious jobbers of tho Bobeaonian stripe,but
we hope there are enough Senators and
Representatives in Congress, to protect
tbe Treasury from tbe ruthless invasion
he suggests.
. Justice is looking up in New York,
and in the near future she may rival her
neighbor. New Jersey, in the prompti
tude with which her laws are vindicated.
A young rough, who recently murdered
a French wiue merchant, has been tried,
convicted and seutenced to bs hung on
April 28th. Several other desperate
characters are under sentence of death
in that city, and their ntcks will soon
feel tbe remorseless hempen collar.
Tha robust Beecber, whose fine ora
tory has charmed many great oongrega

Mr. Trescolt, ex-Secretary Blaine's

Many astronomers have held the
opinion that Alcyone,the chief star of tbe
Pleiades, is the center abont which our
solar system revolves. Very curiously,
an extraordinary importance seems also
to be given this group of stars by many
savage and semi-civilized tribes, who have
peculiar beliefs conot ruing it, apparently
banded down to them from antiquity.
Another prehistorlo canoe has been
discovered in the old bed of the Rhone,
In Fiance. It is about 38 feet long, three
feet wide and two feet deep. It was ex-

Mr. W. M. Williams has concluded that
spontaneous combustion takes place in
some degree in nit casts where coal is ex-

Granular vegetable carbon, saturated
with sulphuric acid, of which it holds
about seventy times its own volume, is
now being tested as a destroyer of phyl
loxera. Buried amongst the roots, it
gradually gives off sulphurous acid gas
and this being heavier than air, not only
permeates the soil, but bangs about the
surface and asphyxiates the phylloxera.
Icebergs are often of enormous size,

encountered bergs of 200 feet or more in
height. Pyer has estimated that in an
iceberg 200 feet above tbe water a total
height of COO to 800 feet may, as a rule.
be inferred. An exception to this rule
must be the bergs Capt Ross saw aground
in 1500 feet of water. A mass of ice float
ing in tbe Southern ocean is reported by
Capt d'Urville to have been thirteen
miles long with vertical walls 100 feet

In a recent address In justification
of compulsory vaccination, D.'. W. B.
Carpenter, the eminent British physiolo
gist, presented some interesting statistics
showing the decrease of small-pox in
Great Britain with tbe adoption of mod
em protective measures. From 1CC0 to
the commencement of the present century
tbe average annual number of deaths
from small-pox was upwards of 4000 for
each million of inhabitants. For the de
cade 1801-10 the yearly small-pox mor
tality was 2,010 per million inhabitants.
In 1831-35.it had fallen to 830. In 1810
means for vaccination were provided by
the government, and the annual rate fell
to 100 per million. Then enme compul
sory vaccination In 1853, and in tbe de
cade 1851-C0 there were each year hut
278 deaths from small-pox in each mil
lion inhabitants. In 18G1-70 tbennm
ber was 270. In 1Q71-80 the rate was
greatly increased, but the circumstances
were so decidedly exceptional that these
years can afford no basis for an argument
against vaccination.
Archaeological researches have shown
indisputably tbat the art of weaving was
practiced in prebistorio times. It may
even date back nearly to the creation of
man, as fragments of woven cloth have
been found among tbe relics of the Lake
Dwellers, who are supposed to have been
about the first representatives of the hu
man race. Tbe Bronze Age furnishes
specimens which place the art above most
others in degree of perfection, even fab
rics of wool being lound in the remains
of Denmark, Scandinavia aud England
the remains of France and Switzerland
ielding linen fabrics. The oldest his
torical reference to the art of weaving is
furnished by the Bible. Jub lamented

It is proposed by Mr. G. F. McGla-
ban, editor of the Santa Barbara (Cal.)
Press, to place moving railway trains in
constant telegraphic communication with
the rest of tbe world. In bis method a
train telegraph office would be kept in
electno connection with an over-bead
wire by means of a truck running upon
the latter and carrying a short wire lead
ing into the car. Aside from its conven
ience to the traveling public, this appli
cation of tbe electric telegraph would
seem to furnUh engineers with a consid
erable safe-guard against accidents.

Lent has come and with, it many of the
galties of the winter conclude, but not
all. Whllo certain ladies will not receive
visitors ou their usual reception days
during Lent others propose continuing
their receptions informally until warm
weather begins, and tbe number of those
who intend seeing their friends at 5 o'
clock and giving them tea is now so large
that one can make such calls every day
in tho week, and yet not pay nearly.all
the visits owing. Ladies are now looking
forward to paying up all their unreturned
calls during Lent.
Tbe rumor of further changes in the
Cabinet jo occur In the near future was
confirmed by one of tbe President's most
Intlmato friends. Tbe Interior Depart
ment portfolio, ho said, would lay be
tween Postmaster-General Howe and
Frank Hatton, with the chances of tho
latter enhanced by tbe fact tbat he halls
from tbe same State as Mr. Kirkwood.
Mr. Howe, though, is most likely to be
the coming man, as he has personally
asked for tbe position, and his experi
ence in tbe Senate adapting bim for the
office. Wm. E. Chandler for Secretary
of tbe Navy, the President now has under
consideration.
It is again rumored that Col, George
B. Corkblll, District Attorney, is shortly
to bo removed from office Belief in this
report has led to the filing of numerous
applications for the position, mostly by
members of the District bar. Inquiry at
the Department of Justice elicits the fact
tbat some fifteen or sixteen applicants are
in the field. Most of these have pushed
for tbe place since the Guiteau trial.
The trial of Sergeant Mason for shoot
ing at Guiteau whilo guarding the jail in
which be was confined was concluded at
tbe arsenal yesterday, and although the
findings of the court-martial have not
been made public it is understood that he
h.s been convicted, and that he will pro
bably be imprisoned at Ft Leavenworth
The findings mnst be approved by Gen,
Hancock before they can carried into
execution.
The President on last Friday nominat
ed Roscoe Conkling. of New York, to be
Associate Justice of tbe United States
Supreme Court. His nomination was re
ferred in executive session of the Senate
to the judiciary committee. Mr. Howe,
Massachusetts, objecting to its luimedi
ate consideration. It is well known that
during tbe fourteen years of service of
Mr. Conkling in the Senate he made
many personal enemies on both Bides of
the chamber. With a man of bis peculiar
temperament this was inevitable. Th
Senators whom he bos offended, and who
are still members of the Senate, had the
opportunity to-day to pay him back, in
part, at least With possibly one or two
exceptions there was not a Senator who
to-day voted against the confirmation of
Mr. Conkling-as Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court who were not prompted
by his personal dislike for the man. Tbe
vote is nnderstood to have been 39 yeas
12 nays,' 8 Democrats and 1 Republicans
Messrs. Hoar, Dewes, Morrill and Haw
ley are said i to be the Republictns who
voted in the negative.
The indictment of Dorsey, Miner.Reve
dell and others for perjury in certain Star
route cases has revived the veil-worn
topic here. We are told tbat tbe prose
cution will be vigorously prosecuted. We
have been told that before, I think but
let that pass. Attorney General Brewster
informs me that when the cases come up
he will be there to conduct them in per
son. I am convinced Brewster means to
try to convict, but I am very far from be
ing convinced that he will succeed in get
ting any of these fellows within the walls
of tbe penitentiary. The conspiracy busi
ness appears to have been dropped out of
sight Conspiracy to defraud is as diffi
cult to establish as anything which can
be brought before a jury, A number of
conspiracy cases have been brought here
and no convictious obtained. In tbe
great whiskey ring suits convictions were
obtained on evidence secured long before
the suits were brought or before any
publio exposure.
The fifth act of the Garfield tragedy
was enacted at the Capitol ou Monday
before a large and distinguished audi
ence. The first was the khooting, the
second tbe death, the third the burial, the
fourth tbe trial and conviction of Gnitean.
There is but one more act to come and
then the drama closes, and that is the
execution oi tbe murderer. The set ne at
the Capitol was a very impressive one.
and will linger long in tht memory of
those who witnessed it The bright morn
ing sunshine brought forth thousands,
who flocked Capitolward long before the
bour announced for the opening of the
doors. There were a number of Congress
men early on the ground, actively en
gaged in placing their ladies and other
friends. At half-past ten the galleries
were literally packed, and those who
cams afterwards had to be content with oc
casional unsatisfactory glimpses through
the open doors. It appeared that the
seating capacity had been greatly over
estimated. Notwithstanding the reiter
ated announcements of the press tbat
none without tickets would be admitted
to tbe Capitol buildings, there were hun
dreds inure merely to le turned away.

WiSHixoTo, March 6, 1882.
Tbe principal even since my last letter
is the Garfield memorial service, which
brought to Capitol Hill the largest throng
since the obsequies in September and to
the inside of the grand old structure the
most imposing gathering I have ever seen
there. The National Capital recalls but
one other occasion to which this may be
compared the spectacle of the whole
body ol loyal people crowding around the
bier of the firt martyred President, tbe
heroic Lincoln. The scene was brilliant
and profoundly impressive. Tbe orator,
tbe most msgnetio of bis time, like bis
great prototype, the Mill Boy of tbe
Slashes, had filled a great spaoe in tbe
contemporary history of his country, had
been Speaker and Senator and Secretary
of State, had desired tbe Presidency at
tbe hands of the party, of which he was
the most idolized member, only to see it
twice snatched from bim just as his bands
were closing upon tbe coveted prize al
most within his grasp. Everybody ex
pected of Mr. lllaiue an effort worthy of
f the occasion, aud so great was tbe anxiety
to hear it that as high as $25 was offered
for a single ticket, a number equivalent
to the capacity of the hall having been
given out by Congressmen days beforehand.
There was a conspicuous absence of
floral decorations, and no display ef
mourning drapery. On the Speaker's
desk, rcaohing up over the parapet of the
reporter's gallery, was a faithful full
length portrait of the late President The
tall, spare figure of General Bhcrman, the
stout form of General Sheridan, and' the
splendid proportions of the gallant Han
cock, in their blue and' gold uniforms,
with Generals Howard and Meigs, occu
pied seats near the presiding officer, act
ing Vice-President Davis. Tbe diplomat-
io gallery was brilliantly filled, represen
tatives of all the notions having legations
hero being presentall in court uniforms.
Tho members of the Chinese and Japan
ese legations were attired In the costumes
of their country and attracted consider
able attention as they sat with their
heads covered during tho ceremony. A
sister of Mr. Blaine, the wife ef Major
Walker a retired army officer, came all
the way from Montana, a distance of 2,
800 miles, to hear her brother's oration,
arrived just in time, and on going to the
Capitol was unable to get a seat until
given one by the courtesy of a stranger.
Tho eulogy was accepted as meeting the
largest expectations of the audience, ex
alted as they were. The last formal tri
bute to Garfield has now been rendered,
First Ibe inauguration less than a year
ago, then the funeral services, and last
the Nation's tribute to the honored dead,
Tbe three scenes, each narking an epoch
in our history, tbe Cipital has witnessed
within the space of a few months.
One of the best kept and most genuine
surprises I have ever known in publio af
fairs was the nomination of ex-Senator
Conkling for the Supreme Court. If .the
fact that tbo nomination was to be made
was .communicated to anybody by the
President the custodian of the secret was
selected with unusual care, for State se:
crots of tbat kind, and oven Executive
session proceedings held nnder sworn
pledge- of secrccy.neorly always find their
way out, and into newspapers. Senator
Edmunds, it will be remembered inaug
urated n sort of inquiry into these latter
leaks some time ago and was unable to
find out whether the reporters had a se
cret recess in the walls or whether they
invoked tbe aid of clairvoyancy. But the
nomination of Conkling was really an ex
ceptlon, and the man who knew all about
it beforehand has not yet been found
On the very day it was made a Senator
who was supposed to have the inside of
things told me that the chances were that
Edmunds would be the man. After th
President's messenger handed in the lit
tle packet and the presiding officer had
opened it, assisted by the clerk, a single
glance sufficed for the whole Senate to
know that something surpri.-iug was con
tained in tbe message. Judge Davis
puckered up his mouth for a prolonged
whistle, but restrained himself end gave
a jerk of his head fur Senator Windom,
who sits near, to couio up and look. The
clerk stepped down to his place and was
whispering to his associate clerks. The
first Senator to come up and look hurried
back and began whispering to his essoci
ates. Then, in as decorous a procession
as the Senators could well form withon
bringing nil business to a stop by a' dis-
orderly rush the! members of tbe Upper
House sauntered up aud looked over th
entrancing bit of flimsy tissue paper 'on
which the mraecf Roscoe Coukhng head
ed tbo list. Not one seemed to be satis-
fled with the assurance from his fellows,
but went up to make himself doubly as
sured that there was no error about the
Identity of tbe nominee. Then here and
thero about the floor were groups of Sen
ators, exchanging smiles of doubt and
surprise. "What does it mean?" "Will
he accept?" "Did he know il?" were a
few of the questions put but not answer
ed, and within an hour it was the talk of
the town.
Thero is in the United Slates Treasury
trifling matter of about a million and a
half of dollars belonging to Japan, which
this country for its own good namo
should return. It is tbe so railed Jap
anese iudemnity fund puld nuder a treaty
award for the destruction twenty years
ago of American ships by vessels belong
ing to- Japan. The story is too long to
relate here, and is probably already well
known. This money, $785,000 In gold,
was paid over in 1851, but Secretary Sew-
rd being satisfied that it had been un
justly claimed.invcsted it in bonds which
havo been held by the State Department
ever since, until tbey now amount with
accrued interest to $1 ,770.361. The For
eign Affairs Committee, through Mr;
Williams, of Wisconsin, recently reported
bill providing for the payment of $251-,
000 to the officers and crew of tbe ship
Wyoming for meritorious service, and
tbat the remainder be returned to Japan.
The speech of Mr. Williams on the sub
ject, delivered February 20th, briefly
states the faebfin the case, and should be
read by any who wish to understand tbe
matter. Tbe shame is that it has been
so long neglected. Don Fedeo.
