U the 7th of April. .11Wr6hrtf.ite is to have a 'COthra's. sionagi Rensions, salary-three_thousand dollara per annum. This is a soft berth for some "loll" individual. In this con nection we make so bold as to inquire, what has Governor Geary done, that the appointing power should be taken out of his hands in thi; case? Convinced at Last. The daylight of truth has finally flashed upon the vision of that portion of the people who have been soperfeetly deluded by the deceptive schemes practiced upon them by the party in power during the last ilecade in the management of the finances of our Country. There has been a class who have seemingly felt to chuckle over their apparent prosperity, and have persistently followed the miser able financial paper balloon and furnished combustion to inflate it, by aiding to keep in prAar those who have, been deceiving them by as Fairy like a story as the one we oft did hear in our childhood, "that if we could catch the rainbow we would find a chest of gold." The class to whom we refer is a portion of the farmers. It must be admitted however, that they have been shielded from many of the op pressive burdens which have been weigh ing down the mechanic and the day la borer, and from this fact they hare been sailing along in apparent smooth water unmindful of the breakers and shoals of a ruinous financial system. We have been astonished to hear some of them de clare with seeming candor that, although we have been engaged for nearly five years in a most' ruinous and destructive war, yet that we were increasing in wealth, and as a proof of this position, cited 1113 to the price of their produce and the increased value of their real estate. The legerdemain which has succeeded so well in deceiving them has been,that gold was not the standard of value but that greenbacks were, and now as necessity compels the advance of greenbacks to ward a par value with gold, the scales are faltug from their eyes, and they can begin to realize their condition, and that the increase of prices which they have supposed they have been receiving for their productions was but the enormous decrease of paper money. Just consider for a moment what has been done. The government did make 1 , greenbacks the standard of vamo as Ix- I tween the common people when it pro nounced them legal tender for debt and in exchange for agricultural and other pro- ! ductions. But with the boudholding tihylock's for whose express benefit it was j enacted, nothing but gold has been the standard, and the greenback dollar which the laboring man and the farmer must accept for their labor and prodnationa has been taken by the bondholder to be paid in gold for as low a sum as tkirl yliec cents., In proof of what we say, tae refer to the price of gold in July 1884, which I was 285 in paper, making the paper dol lar worth thirty five cents, and it has not raved since that time above sixty or sev enty until within the last few months, and now it stands worth about ninety cents. In this manner the managers have succeeded in hoodwinking the people in a great measure, until they have inflated this Badical financial balloon to its far thest tension and now sad experience clearly shows that as we approach the trnt standard of value their produce bears the same price it did ten years ago, and also that when they exchange it for man °featured articles, many are astonished to find that it goes only about half as far as it did then in purchasing those articles. and the query is raised, Why is this so ? The answer to us is plain. Bondhold ers and gold speculators rule this coun try at the present time. Every financial scheme which has been undertaken has been managed by the plea of necessity to redound to their benefit, and the vassallat irig leaders of the party in power have succumbed to their every wish. They have been assisted by Congress to accu mulate their wealth by paying only about one-third of what they demand that the people shall pay them, and to cap the climax they are exempted from taxation. These leaders Mild be supported, with all their auperntwoery adjuncts and hence in addition to the enormous burden of taxa tion in other ways, every manufactured article which is purchased, must, by a rotten revenue system help to raise the fund, and it will not matter how much paper money advances, under the extrav agance of the present administration, which with all its boasted decrease of the debt, of $150,00900 has increased its revenue receipts 6400,000,000, during the last year, no-one need look for trey de crease in the price of Those articles. The war is ended and they-are no more beholden .to you for the protection of their lives and property but by a wily and base system of legislation, they lave engen dered upon you and your posterity financial serfdom, a large portion of the proceeds of which will go .to fill their coffers and enable them to corrupt legis lation, to centralize and perpetuate their parer.

After persever ing fot some weeks in vain, they gave up the idea. shortly after a - hearl Storm, a few weeks ago, this box of treasure was discovered, in an accidental manner, by'a couple of negro boys. . • 'rhe treasure consists principally of Spanish- coins, dated front 1450 ityqo 1530, and is probably worth about $30,- 000. Besides the coins, there were sever al' gold and silver ornaments, a little gold cross, with the image of - our Saviour, proies the religion of the people who bur ied the treasnre, and from the dates of the coins, and Various' historical events ; it is believed that this treasure which has been so long hidden from the eves of men, was buried by none other-thari the greatller nando De Soto, and his followers, about the year 154.0. It is well known that the discoverer of the Mississippi Was in that vicinity about -that time, and was much troubled by the Indians. " This discovery is au important.onc i as it tends to throw new light on the advem tures of the hardy Spaniards, who fre quented the spot in its primeval beauty. The coins will be purchased, by agen tleman who will take them .to New York, Where they will bring a large price from antiquaries. carfMiKf7gSIONAL SUIMJITC r.

STONING-TON, Conti., Feb. 19.—For the last few : days this village, as well as the .neighboring •. towns of Westerly and Charlestown, in Rhode Island. have been the. scenes of:much excitement, caused by various rumors as to the condition of .ii young lady in the•latter place, who, it was reported /Ind boil] in a star of tratie4• _for nearly a week. Others denied this, as serhng that she was dead. Yesterday Afternoon your correspondent, in trnpa ny with- DrAireorge it. Stanton,. of Sten- ington, visited Charieston, a small manu facturing, village. and art with no diffi culty in finding a low weather-beaten house, the residence of Mrs. Josiah King, the yonug ladvls mother, from whom we learned the following facts : Miss Susie A. King, her daughter. was about. twenty-three years of age and of fine personal appearance. About two weeks ago she was taken sick with some alketion -of the throat, by which she was confined to her bed for several days, when she was supposed to be convaleseent, and allowed one day to come (ien stairs. That night, however, the grew worse. complaiumg,of ,severe pains in her heti& and fee ti and continued to grow worse till theenext day, when she lapsed into (mini. conscious state, in which she remained until her death, Friday. the 11th, at half past seven A.

The Relapsing Fever. This terrible disease; about which SI) little i., known except of ifs commonly fa tal results, and which in the cities of Lon don and - New York. has treated as much fear as incilliry, now prevails in Philadel phia to a greater extent than is at all ap preeinted by imr'eitizenS. So far it seems to he - confined to only the most wretched of our population,' an? to find its victims among the denizens ci Bedford and kindred streets. From all that is known of this insidious disease— '% hie+ oftenest results in death when it is least e xperted—it undmibtedly arises from a pcisonims attno-ph and while it i 8 e(lnragjoaS, as the 1110 . ;, ray or other fevers are, it is at tr.sent confined to those or filthy hni,it, and surroundings. At present Chore are over fifty per:ons in the Philadelphia alnik hone.. prostrat ed Ly relapsing toyer, told the number daily inereas-s, though a ~ - r oat many deaths have occurred from . it during the week. It is a little ritrioio:t that the great est pereentage of the ta, , ott ending Wally. was among the colored population. The ithites are generally - convalescing, lint the tA, tiiMlr WO -11111:: tar the patients in the cure, non, soff•ring, from the fever had it when ta k.•tt there. with bat two exceptions. Those two were from one of the rooms of the Workingmen's Ward, the overcrowded condition of which the inquirer referred to in its extended oport of the Institu tion. Into this room intended for the accom modation ~1 porsons, the g,nariliam have been compelled, against their tot it inclinations, to put 85 people nightly ; and if the system of Ventilation now em ployed at the alinsharis , ' was not s o cxecl lent and thorough in supplying fresh air to these Ft:', paupers, who are . by the crowd ed itiOn of the institution obliged to lice in this room. the danger of the fever Treading through the whole house would . be Tory great. As we have said, this disease finds its victims where dirt and poisoned air must abound, and this fact should teach the Board of Health the urgent necessity there is for a thorongh cleansing of our streets and alleys before the hot weather comes fully upon ns. Fifty out of a population of 3,800, suf fering from a generally fatal and coutag ions disease, is a large number, and it must he remembered that this fever is finding fresh victims every day, and that not to check it now is to let it grow yond the power of checking, as i t will be when it has crept into every dirty street l and alley in this city.—Ph frit Inutrirer.
