Suffering in the southern fitates—Re. ,
is of District Commanders.
Gen. 0. 0. Howard. Commissioner of the
Frctdmen's Bureau, will to-morrow transmit to
Gen. Grant reports from Generals. Ord, Gillian,
Hancock, Canby, Scott, and other officers, bear
ing upon the destitution ' present and prospec
tive, in the Southern States. The sudden fall in
the price of cotton, together with the failures of
the crops, has produced great depression,
anxiety and apprehension, and it is generally
believed that 'there will be ,great suffer
ing. for want of food in Louisanna,
Mississippi and South Carolina before the
close of the winter, and that relief'in some shape
lunette afforded to prevent the anarchy that
many appliend. Gen. Howard recommends
that the attfntion of the President and Congress
be called to the report, with a view to some
thorough and practical mode of relief. It is sug
gested that if a fund could be established from
which employers might draw on pay
ing reasonable Interest, it might, afford
temporary If not 'permanent redef. Gen.
'Canby favors relief through. such a fund,
or through the issue of provisions,
taking a lien upon the , crops for security.
It is also recommended by some prominent per
sons that (Oran of $30,000,000 in currency to be
secured by bonds and mortgages, and other good
security, for the benefit of all States in extreme
need. be made. Generals Ord and Hancock re
commend the repairing of the levees of the Mis
sissippi by the Government. Gen. Howatd says
that certain politicians have taken advantage of
the suffering in the regions where destitution
prevails, to further their own interests, and are
trying to reduce the price of labor to board
merely, and thus got control of the laborers.—
firctqinigton Star, .Sd.
Vice-Admiral Belcher has revised the new
edition of the late Admiral Smyth's "Sailors'
Word Book," just issued in England. The
Pall Mall Gazette, speaking of this book,
remarks
"It might be curious to speculate on the
origin of some of the new meanings which
sailors have given to phrases used in com
mon life, and on the way in which the words
belonging to other professions have migrated
into the navy. We can understand the dis
taste, not 'unmixed with contempt, felt by
seamen for those who do not know the stem
from the stern of a ship, and yet succeed in
various walks of life. It is significant of this
feeling that all classes of men on board ship
who do not keep night watch are called
idlers, though their work during the day may
be severe•and continuous. But what is so
strange is, that nautical language abounds in
similes derived from the work of these de
' spited classes. If there is any one obnoxious
to sailors, it is a lawyer. Yet they conde
scend to compare a ship that fails in an
attempt at tacking, to one of those suits
which were formerly interminable, and when
she misses stays they say that she is 'in chan
cery.' All the other legal similes are per
fectly intelligible. When a lawyer is called
a land-shark, and a shark a sea-attorney;
when a man who, argues instead of
obeying, or incites others to revolt, is
nicknamed a sea-lawyer or a king's-bencher,
we think of the discipline applied to Jack on
board, and the latitude he claims ashore. But
how comes he to, know anything about the
Procedure of courts of equity? What does
he know of riding and of horseflesh that
makes him talk about 'working up the dead
horse' when he has had an advance of pay,
and of stirrups, and the coach-whip, and the
captain's coach-horses, and saddles and bri
dles? Why does he go to commerdal life for
a description of sea-sickness, and of the white
patch on a midshipman's collar? The term
of 'casting accounts,' which is applied to the
first, is perhaps more easily to be explained
than the 'weekly account' of the second. But
one would think that in the case of sea
sickness a purely nautical operation might
have found some nautical equivalent.
"There is a richness about original sea
terms which is not altogether shared by these
adaptations to nautical life. Many phrases of
which the present use is figurative bear the
most evident traces of a practical origin. It
is very suggestive to read that severe means
effectual, and it takes us back to the old days
when there'was no half-and-half measures,
but when all the exploded kinds of punish
ment,which are histoncal in Admiral Smyth's
book,were actual, and were used daily. Such
a phrase as 'touching up in the/bunt,' applied
primarily to a sail, had once an unpleasant
meaning, and officers who had a 'touch of
the tarbrush' in them were not always the
most agreeable to sail under. Turning back
a few pages, we light on the word `scaldings,'
which was .used by a man carrying a load,
and had the effect of clearing the way. Here,
too, we have a vivid impression brought be
fore us of the bare-footed seaman,who would,
of course,
be sensitive to the spilling of a few
drops of hot water. In like manner a 'hell
afloat,' 'devil's smiles,' meaning 'gleams of
sunshine among dark clouds, either in
the heavens or' 'captain's face,' bringing
up with a round turn,' and so on, speak
volumes.
Newspaper Bribery in France.
In the Corps Legislatif some fortnight ago
M. De Kerveguen caused a very unpleasant
sensation by some remarks on the liberal
press of Paris. He reminded the Chamber
that certain papers which were vigorously
scolding the Government last spring for not
making war. upon Prussia, suddenly veered
mound and advocated a pacific policy. He
bad received several letters about this curious
fact from Berlin., He had now found an
article in a journal for which he did not hold
himself responsible, bat which he would read
to the chamber
"BERLIN, December 2.—The bill for a loan
of 60,000,000 thalers has been presented. It
will no doubt pass. The financial situation
here is brilliant, and therefore the liberals
grant all that is asked of them. * * *
The average amount of secret service money
for years past has been 35,000 thalere, but it
has been observed with the greatest astonish
ment that in 1866 the sum swelled to 729,000:
Now, it is notorious in Berlin that the greater
part of this sum was employed in bribes in
foreign newspapers. It is especially said that
400,000 thalers (1,500,0000 were absorbed by
the French press, and principally by five
leading liberal Paris journals."
. MM. Gueroult and Flavin—We protest.
M. de Kerveguen (continuing to read)—
"And whose names I can give you, if you
wish to have them."
M. Gamier Pages—This is a calumny.
Several Members—Go on; go on.
M. de Kerveguen—"A certain great jour
nal, which boasts of having a million of read
ers, received six hundred thousand francs;
another, a more stately one, which pretends
to have its entree to salons, and affects high
society, pocketed only three hundred thou
sand francs, because, having terribly declined
from its former greatness, it now lives only
by the favor of those' governments which
are good enough to honor it with their confi
dence. [Laughter.] This old organ of well
bred people has now a very limited circula
tion. A third journal, which dates from the
Italian campaign in 1859, got only one hun
dred and fifty thousand francs. This, con
sidering the services it rendered to M. de
'Bismarck, was the worst paid of all. rlnterr
ruptions and laughter.] It is true that it
would have been throwing money away
to pay it highly; because it would cheerfully
have worked for nothing against a Catholic
nation. And, moreover, this journal having
learned that its brethren wore better ' paid
than itself, now speaks very tartly of Prussia
and M. de Bismarck. The fourth organ,
a younger paper still, was valued
at but one hundred thousand francs.
The fifth, Which had then just come
out in a new character by reason
of a change in the proprietary, was thought
worth two hundred and fifty thousand francs.
You will, perhaps, be astonished that I should
be enabled to give you such precise details.
The thing is, however, so simple and so well

known here that lam entitled to be astonished'
that you should be ignorant of it. .T nue are
hundreds of German correspondents in Paris,
and we are far better informed of What goes
on in Paris than you are who live there."
MM. Havin, of the Sieele, and. Gueroult,
of the Opinion Nationale, have called upon
M 1 de Kcrveguen to prove his charge 3 before
a "jury of honor."
The latter gentleman has accepted the pro
position. The jury will consist of MM.
d'Andclarre, Muter, Marie, Jules Favre, and
perhaps President Schneider.
The Absurdity of Drinking.
All the Year Round says: nab oecome
a sore of popular—almost national—faith that
it is not phssible to he truly happy unless you
drink. Among certain classes—and they are
by no means exclusively the lowest—drink
is the beginning and end of everything. The
very name of liquor is held to be synonymous
with enjoyment, and the dearer the liquor
the more it is prized and coveted. • Yet every
man who is not a • dOwnright drunkard,
is well aware that the pleasures of drink
ing are, beyond a certain point, a
mockery, a delusion and a snare. I put it
to any one who has stood halt the night at a
bar or sat half the night at a club-room,
drinking, smoking and banding reckless
talk, if the enjoyment of audit an evening
has been anything like that of a few quiet,
hours spent at home with a book or news
paper? The evil influence of tavern pleasure
on the health is too obvious to be denied by
any one, and the illusory nature of the plea-.
sums themselves would be undeniable also,
if the persons who indulge in them did not
deceive themselves and put the truth out of
sight.
No one ever brought any good out of a
drinking bout yet. It is a short, feverish
spasm of animated enjoyment, which leaves
nothing behind but moroseness, regret, bad
temper, self-reproach and headache. I
should like to ask you, sir, if you say your
prayers wken you come home in that state?'
No—you don't. You - are ashamed to say
them. You postpone them until you have
purged yourself, your mind and your lips
by more sober and rational behavior. Next
night when you pass the hours quietly at
home with a book or a friend, you feel that
you have had real enjoyment, and that the
time has passed pleasantly, that you have
learned something, and that you have not
injured your health. You are not ashamed
to say your prayers, and you get up next
morning with a clear head, a good appetite,
and an increased faculty for work and enjoy
ment of life.

with secret or quack medicines, as their names suffi

has caused them to be appreciated and prescribed by the
faculty in the whole world. They widely differ from those
numerous medicines advertised in the public papero as able
to cure every possible disease, as they are applicable only
to but a few complaints. The most stringent laws exist
in Franco, with regard to the sale Of medical prepara

eilleselous, either in the Hospitals, or in •the practice of

statistics of Immigration—Arrivals at
• _
Columbus.
(From de Columbus (0810) Journal, Dee. 30.3 '
Week by week our readers have read of a cer
tain number of emigrants seeking homes in our
own and adjoining states, but very few, proba,
bly, have any idea of the immense addition which
has thus been made to the population of the
Great West. They have come quietly, un
heralded and In squads, yet the number of
emigrants arriving 111 Columbus between Dec.
29. 1866, and Dec. 28, 1867, was forty-three
thousand two hundred and twenty-four. More
than .13,1100 persons, mostly Germans, ready and
anxious to use their energy, skill and wealth :in
the advancement of the prosperity, civilization
and power of the great Republic. When we re
flect that only a small portion of the tide which
is constantly flowing to the shores of the Western
Continent touches our city, we can form some
idea of the immense emigration from Europe to
America. Of the number passing through
Columbus, 5,33-1 arrived during the•first quarter
of the year; 16,023 during the second quarter;
11.531 timing the third quarter, and 10,366 during
the last.
Of those who arrived during the first quarter,
1,867 proposed to settle in Ohio, 1,536 in Mis
souri, 755 in 111liwis, 535 in Indiana. 354 in Ken
tucky, 146 in Tennessee; 137 in Wb-conSin, 1-1 in
Minnesota, 14 in Kansas, and 9 in lowa. Of
those arriving during the second quarter, 4.641
proposed to settle in Ohio, 4,652 in Missouri;
2,248 in Illinois, 1,589 in Indiana, 1,521 in Ken
tucky, 659 in Tennessee, 647 in Wisconsin, 250 in
Minnesota, 46 in Kansas, 160 in lowa, and 56 in
Nebraska. Of those arriving during the third
quarter, 3,189 proposed to settle
in ° Ohio, 2,489 in Missouri, 2.156
in . Illinois, 1069 in Indiana. 1,264 in Ken
tucky, 173 in Tennessee, 909 in Wisconsin, 455 in
Minnesota, 63 in lowa, and 74 in Nebraska. Of
those arriving timing the last quarter, 2,275.pr0p05ed

The smallest number of immigrants arriving in

Literary EXllll2llllfttioll6 Ia China..
The students in the literary institutions of the
Chinese empire are sometimes put to severe
straits in obtaining their diplomas. According
to the statement in the Nankin paper, only about
two-thirds of those recently "examined" in that
city survived the ordeal. We copy from the
''Nankin Recorder the following:
The examinations which have just been brought
to a close at Nankin have attracted more than
usual interest among the Chinese,
and have also
been of an unusually important character. No
less than two thousand students were present,
and there were double the usual number of
successful candidates for the Ku Jig. or "M. A."
degree. This was in virtue of an im pedal decree,
issued in consequence of the shortcomings of the
past years, brought about by the rebel dis
orders. Two hundred and forty-eight students
passed. While the examinations werepro
ceeding as many as seventy-five competitors
either died naturally, or committed suicide
in the hall. Cases of this kind are of ordinary
oceurence, but this year the number was sur
prisingly great. The Chinese method of account
ing for these misfortunes is highly characteristic.
The victims are held to have been guilty of va
rious improprieties, such as to disqualify them
for advancement in literary boners. They are,
therefore, pursued by evil genii. even in the ex
amination hall, where vengeance overtakes them
by fatal sickness or the determination to com
mit suicide. No pity is felt for the un
happy men. Their bodies are removed by
an underground way, as it is thought the- sa
credness of the main doors will be outraged by
their being carried through them. It is strange
to find the most respectable institution of China
not free from those superstitions, which seem to
become mixed up with everything else; and
some of the reputation of these celebrated ex
aminations must vanish when such fabips are
known to be believed. Weihear also upon good
authority that the idea of its being perfectly im
possible for there to be any false play is not
founded upon fact; and that notwithstanding all
precautions, it still happens at times that a
shutiling oethemes is effected, and &clever, but
poor. scholar agrees to be " plucked" for a few
taels, in favor of a less erudite but more opulent
competitor.
