TnE legislature of Rhode Island have been trying for about ten days to elect a United States Senator, to succeed Mr. Sprague. So far Qenoral Burnside lead in the race, but at the last balloting lacked 15 votes of receiving enough to elect him. It may result as it did in Massachusetts, in a compromise, by the election of some of the less prominent candidates.

Kauffman, of Letterkenney. Last week we cave an account of a splendid donation to the public by Mr. Lick, of San FtanciBco, who it seems is a Pennsylvania man. Mr. Lick is the son of a plain Lebanon farmer, was born in a one-story house common in the country in those days, seven miles from the town of Lebanon, and bred a furiuor's boy. Dur ing the gold excitement of 1840, Mr. Lick, like many others, wended his way to the Pacific slope in search of a fortune. Un like many of his fellows he succeeded be yond expectations. A few years ago Mr. Lick bad the old house in which be was born shipped by rail to his Pacific home, and there Bet up on his farm, and furnish ed as of old, a wonder to curiosity-seekers. Mr. Lick's fortune was made in lucky gold and real estate ventures. Pension Acts Approved by the President. The President has approved acts as fol lows : An act to increase the pensions of soldiers and sailors, who have been totally disabled ; an act providing that all persons who are now entitled to pensions, under existing laws, aud who have lost either an arm at or above the elbow, or a leg at or above the knee shall be placed in the second class, and shall receive twenty-four dollars per month ; provided that no artificial limbs or commutation thereof shall be furnished to such persons as shall be entitled to pensions, under this act. This act takes ellect after the fourth of June, 1874. Financial Wrecks. The trustees of the estate of Oakes Ames have been obliged to put it into bank' ruptcy, declaring at the same time Jhat if properly managed the assets will meet all the obligations. He was the organizer and manager of the notorious Credit Mobilier, into which he inveigled a score of leading Congressmen, only to betray them at last and blast their reputations. If he bad beon a mere lobby agent or adventurer the case would not have beon so bad. But he was one of tho most extensive manufac turers in New England, and was reputed to be worth nine inillioua. He was one of the very few men who rendered possible the buildiug of the Union Pacific Railroad at the time whon no one bad anj faith in it. At that timo it was regarded as a won- derful exhibition of personal energy. But underneath it lay this Credit Mobilier, through which Ames and his associates took the contracts and reaped immense profits without putting in any money, the government lands furnishing the working capital. The success of the enterprise was such a tremendous streak of luck that it seems to have turned Ames' head completely. He went into building railways aud cities in all the wild places of the west aud south, and at last became bankrupt. But it was believed that the linn could be put ou its legs again, and every effort has been made ' to that end. The Credit Mobilier ex posure was a set-back he had not calcu lated ou, and under it he sunk and soon after died. With the malinger gone, the work of resuscitating his credit has proved abortive, and the bankruptcy swoops away his entire fortune. In the era that closed with the great panio there was a considerable class of men like Ames, who reared up what seemed to be colossal fortunes in manufactures, and railroads and mining, but lost their heads and became bankrupt suddenly to the ut ter consternation of the public. Throe years ago none but an invotorato croaker would have predictod the failure of A. & W. Sprague, Ames Brothers, Jay Cook & Co., Ilenry Clews and a number of others who went down as before the blast of a tempest. How Blaln was Rebuked. The day followirg that on which Blaiue lost his temper in the House an Illinois Con gressman said to him : " Mr. Blaino, I am not very familiar with you, and so I cannot speak as freely as I would to an old friend. But I feel I ought to tell you that you made a d fool of yourself yesterday." Blaine answered with a sigh, " I am afraid I did forget myself." Tiion, breaking into a chuckle, be added : "what kind of lan guage do you use when reproving a man with whom you consider yourself thorough ly intimate?" Shooting Affray. San Francisco, June 16. A shooting af fray took place to-day at the post ofilce between Charles De Young, editor of the Chronicle, and B. F. Napthaly, editor of the Sun.

At a fire in Port Jervis this morning, after all per sons were removed, widow Udell became possessed of the erroneous idea that her child was still in the building, and rushed in through the smoke and flame.

Mr. Mead was quite badly burned. tW Little Joe was the mediciue man of a tribe of Indians uear Rig Pine, California, Sapsey had a fever, and Little Joe killed him in a clumsy effort to cure him. The tribe were indignant at the malpractice, and as a punishment dosed Little Joe with the medicine that had killed Sapsey. But the doctor did not die of bis own physic. Then he was stoned and stabbed to death, Four of the tribe have been arrested for the murder. They confess the deed, but do not regard it as a crime, arguing that any doctor who cannot cure ought to be put to death. tUThe Crawford Journal tells of visit to Meadville recently, of a little gir named, Perking, of Kinsman, Ohio, who can rood with her eyes blindfolded, by simply passing lier lingers over common print.

For the BloomBeld Tlmoa. Sakdy Hill, June 17, 1874. A hot Days' Experience Big Snapper The Deacon in Trouble. One day some three weeks since, about 2 o clock P. SI., when the neat was UU in the shade, two Medical btudents might have been seen reclining on the grass, in the shade of the trees that surrounds Dr. Rodcers' Med. Office, at Sandy Hill. The one held in his hand the last system of Groose's Surgery, while the other was bothering over a work on Chemistry. The first to break the silence was Mr. A. R, R , surnamed the " Deacon," who faintly squeaked, "old fellow let go swim ming." "All right" wa the reply that came from the lips of the other, whose name we need not mention here, and - so they were soon on their way to indulge in one of tbe most pleasant past-times of summer. As they were crossing a small stream, the " Deacon" suddenly yelled snapping turtle, and instantly fainted. The other chap landed the " old snapper" in double-quick, and then proceeded to awaken bis comrade out of tyncope, by holding that snapper in close relation to the glutams maximu muscle of the "Dea- vm " Thev then proceeded on their iour- ney to the creek, holding the snapper at arm length, while the enraged Brute snapped at everything within reach, not forgetting The " Deacon s ' one inferior ex tremity, which he nabbed and relieved the now irate " Deacon" of both spunk and blood. But to proceed, having arrived at tbe bathing grounds, the next trouble was, what to do with the spunky old snapper, while in bathing. However, they both came to the conclusion, that " wherehere is a will, there is a way," but the way was not visible to them yet ; at last the " Dea con" looked wise, and said ho guessed he knew of a way to stop his infernal traveling while in swimming. So he set down on a grass plot and pulled off a boot, that looked like an inverted canal boat. He then divested himself of bis unmentiona- ablc : tied the legs shut, and then proceed ed to chuck the snapper in, and fusteuing them shut at the top, completely conliuin his "suappership." Tbe " Deacon" all this time, was as calm aud serene as (Geo, Washington was the night be crossed tbe Delaware, when tho fate of a nation rested on his shoulders,) and certainly the fate of the old snapper l en ted on tbe strength ol them breeches, and well he knew it too, tor the way the old chap did rear and pitch was bininlv awful. All the while lust quiet a smile played around the "Dea con's" mouth, a ever bedecked the visnge of Jeff Davis, when Unionists got a hold of mm iu Dixie, tint to proceed, alter being in the water an hour or more, they came out to prepare to go borne. It was then that the work began. Tho old snapper just clinched ou to the internal posterior portion of that garment, and there be bung, let go he would not, and to go home without that necessary article, was not to be thought of. If the " Deacon" was calm before, he was not now. He said, con- twist that snapper ; shoot him ; kick him, and a host of similar wicked sentences. After workinir half an hour, the snanner let loose and came out, much to the " Dea cons" dolieht. He. however, was finally recaptured and taken home where he will get into a worse scrape before long. The parties aro doing well, but the " Deacon" says he will never accommodate a turtle of that description in such departments again. The " Deacon" also says, when the snap per clinched him by the leg, it " painfully" remindod him of Aunt Jemimas Plaster, the more he tried to pull that critter off, the more be stuck the faster. S. R. I. For tbe Bloomfield Times. A Nuisance. Mr. Editor : What we are coin? to con sider in this article has engaged the minds of many beside us. It is this : There are entirely too many vagabonds in the shape of "beggars," runuing through our land. in tbe winter time they manage to got into our 1'oor House, to lay tnere all win ter, but as soon as Spring comes, when there may be somothing for them to do, tney ioave there and roam the country ovor lBginf? thoir way as thoy go. They aro not always reliable either. People who ive alone the public bitrhwav are often bothered with them a great, deal. If they should rofuse them something to oat, or a place to sleep, and should tell them to go and earn their living by work, instead of roaming through the land, thoy may seek revenge by burning their buildings. Last Spring, a year since, four of this kind of people came through our part of the coun try ana askea lor lodgings. JNot getting any they found their way through a win dow in a school house, near this place, burnt all the wood, candles aud matches tnat were in tbe house : thev also performed some other tricks which are too shameful to mention here. The teacher, tbe next morning, found tbe house iu a horrible condition. Would it not be well for the people of this county to petition Congress to pass an act, forbidding the landing in this country of such people. It is said and we believe it is true, too, that some foreign countries empty their poor-houses and prison-pens, pay their expenses, and send them over to tbe United States, so that they can got rid of them and no longer feed them.
