A Bisliiigivtslicd Hindoo. The Calcutta Review gives a sketch of the career of a distinguished Hindoo, Rajah Sir Rodbnkant Deb Bahadoor. lie was a man who, to a zealous liberalism in matters of politics and popular education, united a zealouß theological othodoxy of the most un bending kind. Being eighty-four years old when he died in April last, his literary and political antecedents went back to the period when the present notions about native educa tion were first fighting their way against the . prejudices of the old school Of IndianWhninis tratorsj and the Rajah, then plain Radhakant Deb, was one of- the foremost pioneers in the struggle. Prom that time (says the Pall Mall Gazette), whether in the compilation of Ben gal spelling books, or in the designing and 1 completing a voluminous Sanskrit Lexicon, in the management of the Hindoo College at Calcutta, or in the promotion of the education not only of the multitude but of Hindoo girls in the privacy of the Zenana, he proved at I once the sincerity of his convictions and the I acuteness and perseverance of his practical judgment. Nearly all the chief learned so -1 cieties in Europe gave him their diplomas, of honorary or corresponding membership, in cluding those of St. Petersburg, Berlin and I Vienna, and the Asiatic Societies of London, I Paris, Germany and the United States. In I 185!) Queen Victoria sent him a gold medal I with her own portrait, and two and twenty years previously the Governor-General in- I vested him with a robe of honor and con . I fared on him tho titles of Rajah and Baha- I door. ■ •- , . ■ 5... I Yet from first to last he retained the rigor- I oub orthodox Hinduism in which he bad been : brought up, entirely repudiating" The Broad” I Church critical school of interpretation which I is now making such surprising progress I among the most cultivated Hindus. One of I the most amiable and kind-hearted of men* I and blameless in all the transactions of life, I he yet strove hard to fetain the horrible cus- I tom of suttee, and used all his influence, happily without effect, against the passage of the - law which entitled native Christian converts to succeed to the property of their I parents when they died intestate. He was, in fact, as firm a believer in the compatibility * of liberalism ol politics and popular education ■jvsth ib* roost rigidtraditionalism in religion as was Lacordaire himself. Stories about JBeportcrs. A writer in Chambers’ Journal says: ■ “Capital stories are’ told of the different varieties of provincial reporters, especially of ( those of the old school,'which is now, hap- _ pliy, passing away.. There i-3 the frighttnl, eager reporter, who Is always on , duty, neve?, forgetting his mission. One worthy of this class was roused front liis slumbers one night by a disturbance bn. his door-step; His alarmed spouse compelled him to- descend and see what the matter was, and on open ing the door he discovered a man stretched across the threshold in a fit. ‘Mary, Mary, cried he to his better-half, ‘bring my note book and a candle directly; here’s a paragraph come to the door!” Huch eagerness tor work as this shows itself in different forms. An enterprising reporter had heard that Lord Palmerston was to he present at an archery meeting in a small country village in Hamp shire, and he accordingly posted down to the place, and, like Mr. Micawber, waited for something to turn up. Lord Palmerston s task was to distribute prizes to some half-dozen blushing young ladies, and the whole company present didn't number much above a score. His Lordship performed his task with his usual grace and good-humor, I dare say giving the young ladies a pa ternal pat on the head, but making only the most common-place observa tions. Our stenographer waited anx iously in his place until, to his hor ror, he saw the proceedings brought to a close without a speech from the Premier. This *wfts more than he ceuld stand. H© rußnea from his comer to the noble lord, who was gettmg out of the room sb fast as possible. •My Lord—l beg your pardon, but really this won’t do.’ ‘Aybat do you mean, sir?’was the reply of the astonished statesman. -‘Why, you've made no speech; I’ve come ail the way from London to report it, and I must have a speech of some sort.’ Whereupon, it is on record —and this story is a true one—that the good-tempered old gen tleman turned Lack, and detained the retreating audience for twenty min utes, whflst he gajve them a genial disserta tion on the good .qualities of English women in general, and of Hampshire lasses in parti cular. <?n another occasion, however, he made up for this complaisance. He was attending an agricultural dinner, and saw a large gathering of reporters, for the times were critical and a speech of his certain to be valuable. But he had made up his mind riot to speak—no m®o knew better when to hold bis tongue—and accordingly he slily sent down to the gentlemen of the press a slip of paper on which, in his bold round hand, were written .the words: ‘This fish won’t bite!’ “After the eager reporter comes the flowery one, who has always been particularly great in small provincial towns, and who has at his command a stock of adjectives enough to make Lord Macaulay hide his diminished head. This gentleman is in his glory at a (lower show, an execution, a funeral, or, in fact, whenever he has an opportunity of mur dering the Queen’s English. One specimen of the school, when writing about a flp wer show—which is always ‘a horticultural and 11 oral display’—said that it was ‘illumined by cartloads of sunshine.’ Another, a Liverpool worthy, in giving an account of somebody’s funefal, observed that ‘the body of the deceased gentleman was followed to the ’■ grave by a silent and deeply sympathizing audience.’ I have heard of a paragraph which, with forcible redundancy, was en titled ‘Funeral of the remains of a late ■ deceased military officer;’ and I havo seen an account of a penny-reading wound up with : the remark that ‘ the entertainment was, upon the whole, the most mirth-provoking and soul-stirring which could be had for the : money!’ ; “The worst thing about the flowery re | porter is, that he has done so much to injure i the English language. If he can find a fine j word to express the same meaning a 3 a plain i one, he never hesitates to cast aside (he lat ter; and if he hears of any barbarous inven tion of our transatlantic cousins, he straight way makes a note of it, and carefully makes use of it at the very first opportunity. His ideas, too, of the meaning of certain words are somewhat hazy. Thus, a fatal accident is con stantly spoken of by him as a ‘fatality, ’ and his adjectives are applied in such hap hazard fashion that they might almost have been scattered over his ‘copy’ with a pepper castor. The quantity of bad French and Latin, too, which he lugs into all he writes, equals that made use of by a fashionable author of twenty years ago. He has almost naturalized some, foreign words amongst us, and has given many a slang term a perma nent place in our language. Upon the whole, he is the most objectionable representative of the reporter’s craft to be met with now-a days.” Tlie Arkansas Gold Ficitlall A Western exchange says: “Accounts are still rife of rich gold and silver deposits in the counties of Polk and Sevier, in Southwestern Arkansas. These counties are but thinly populated, and though legends of auriferous wealth in connection with that region have for a long tiine been current among old settlers, nothing definite has hitherto been known in relation thereto. Parlies, ho wever.have been actively engaged in prospecting oi . late, and reports of their great success in the de velopment of rich placers continue to reach the public. The Fort Smith papers say the mines in this new El Dorado are becoming to attract much attention throughout the coun try, and that emigrants are rapidly pouring into Polk county, hitherto almost unknown. Claims are in such request that a branch land office has__been established at Dallas, the county'seal'of Polk, to facilitate their loca tion. Specimens of rich gold and silver ore are frequently brought to Fort Smith, and an old California miner, who has been ‘prospect ing,' pronounces Polk and Sevier counties richer in material than any two counties in California.” Tub Goon Old Democratic Times. — “Sam, have you whipped Molly, as I told you?’” “Yes, father.” “Have you delivered Sue’s young 'un to that trader who bought it yesterday?” “Yes, father.” “Did you cut down the rations of the field hands?” “Yes, father.” “Did you tell the niggers that if they wore any clothes to the cotton field, ex cept, tor the women, a tow skirt, and for the men a pah of tow pants, that you would give ’em twenty lashes each?” “Yes, father.” “Have you rubbed Jim’s back with salt?” “Yes, father." “Did you string up that nig ger that had the spelling-book?” “Yes, father.’’. “Have you heard whaMliey did up the creek, yesterday,, with that d—d aboli tionist that was psalm singing around r that neighborhood?” “Yes, lather. ’’ “Well? “They guv him live-and-forty and rode him on a rah 1” ‘ ‘Cuss it, why didn’t • they Bang him?

KzpanMlon of the Currency. [Special Deapaich to the PhUadciphla Evening Bulletin.} Wabiiisoton, February 15th.—It Is generally understood that the Ways and Means Committee will bring in a measure increasing the volume of the currency by at least fifty millions. Several bills and resolutions offered in tho House, chiefly by Western members, looking to an Increase of the paper currency, and referred to the Ways and Means Committee, have not re ceived speedy attention on account of tho Com mittee's anxletv to perfect the Tax bill. Pressure is beiDg brought to bear upon tho Committee, especially from "the West'and by the West ern numbers, In favor of an increase In the volume Of paper money circulation and It is so great that the matter cahDOt be much longer de layed. It Is known that a majority of the com mittcefavor such action, both ns a financial and as a political' measure, and It is claimed that when reported it will pass the House by a decided vote. The representatives from the West say their constituents demand it, and that it is absolutely necessary to their business prosperity. On.such a measure the Democrats and Republi can sfrom the West will vote together, and many Eastern men are also counted upon, so that tho eontraclionists will not have enough strength to resist It: ' ' . r ■■ ■ tromirtalhe. ** buildings (cooper shops), owned by A. & W.

Im migration syndics have been appointed.- An I'xcitlng Kcenc-A Voung Lady un der a miodk fttuard—Keneue n* At tempted and the Police Interfere, [From the Detroit Free Ptcm.) A beautiful and accomplished young lady, who is the daughter of one of our-wealthy citizens, in opposition the oft-expressed wishes of her parents, entertains an affection for a young me chanic, who reciprocated the tender feeling. Notwithstanding the parental displeasure ul the mutual preference of the young couple, they, like all other lovers, found frequent oppprtunity for an interchange of sentiment. A knowledge of Ibeir stolen interviews reached the stem parents aforesaid, and after much anxious deliberation, it was finally concluded to send the young lady to visit some relatives in an interior town, in the hope that change of scene and new associations would turn her from the object other heart’s ado ration. But the old adage that “love laughs at locksmiths,” applies with equal pertinence to many other conditions, and the youngsters dur ing the lady’s stay secretly communicated with each other, and so kept the flame burning brightly. At length the time came round for her return home, and yesterday, she, in company with her mother, came to Detroit, arriving about 5 o’clock last evening, via the Detroit and Mllwaukeo Rail road. Having previously received an intimutiou that she wouiu arrive on that train, the lover was early at the depot, us were also the voting lady's father and a brace of “big brothers,” fully prepartd for on; contingency. When the per / verse object of all this solicitude made her ap , ptarance, a general rush for her was made by the opposing parties, the result of which was a collision between the relatives on one side, and the lover on the other, which would have ended , in a pugilistic encounter, had not a posse of po licemen separated them. The girl was then placed In a carriage and taken home, but at the moment tho party were leaving the depot, she turned and waived a kiss to her disconsolate love r, who promptly returned the mute but elo quent salute, and slowly wended his way from uie scene of his discomfiture. Flood' in Cblnor-Overflowlnir of gtbe Yellow Kivcr—'Terrible Lana of i.lfe and destruction of Property. The Shanghiie corrcepsndence of the Boston - , Traveler, dated- Dec. 10, refers thus to the recent flood: V " “China’s sorfow, the Whang hn, part and par cel of the Yellow River, has overflown its banks i in its periodical deluge, but this season causing almost unlimited devastation, flooding a space of over four thousand miles and sweeping off en tire villages, and Inundating any and everything in the rush of the waters. Thousands have per ished, while over sixty towns and villages cease to exist. The remaining ones are so flooded that their Inhabitants go in boats from house to house, seeking shelter, or food from the . scanty in mains of the', gathered, crop—barely enough to last for a few days—and then suffering and starvation awaits them- during the winter months. The amount of destitution even now Is absolutely frightful, and unless the Chinese Gov ernment takes active measures before the frost sets in, these hard-w-rking farming people will hardly survive their at best miserable existence. Their past experience has taught them to rely on : their own resources only, as Government will hardly extend a helping hand to dying fellow creatures.” Embezzlement In Pinft*h-*2Z,000 Appropriated.
