Wat .sk&mntt Henry A. Parsons, Jr., Editor THURSDAY, MARCH 13, .1879. Paul Boy n ton left Galllpolls last Friday. Just above there, a country man took him for a water animal and leveled a musket at him. Boy n ton's cries saved his life. When the news reached the Pacific coast that- the President had vetoed the Antl-Chluese bill, flngs were lowered at half mast and public meetings called to denounce the Presl dent's course. John C Howard, who died last week In Paris, Ky., was the tallest man In the state, being six feet and eleven and a half inches high. He weighed two hundred and sixty-seven pounds. His parents and children are all more than six feet high. No tidings have yet been received of the fourteen fishing vessels which went out from Gloucester, Mass., to the George's banks, and the feeling is generally prevalent that the entire number went down with all their crews in the severe gales of lost month. The Legislature of Arizona is abusing Its power of granting divorces of the marriage tie by enactment, and there Is clamor on the Pacific coast for Congressional interference. None of the State Legislatures have such a power. The State Constitutions all prohibit divorces except through the courts, and it is thought that there is no reason why this should not be the case In the Territories also. Before Colonel A. Louden Snow. den took possession of the mint in Philadelphia, there was a general ins pection of the building, when the cash on band, bullion, and so forth, was counted up, and formally transferred to him by the retiring superintendent, Hon. James Pollock. The money on hand was found to amount to the sum of $4,309,126 99, which was duly re ceipted for by the new superintendent. The debt statement issued Satur day shows the following increase of debt for February : $311,411.24, cash in the treasury, $447,292'498.48 ; gold and silver certificates, $1,987,680; United States notes held for redemption of certificate of deposit, $46,100,000; United States notes held for redemption of fractional currency, $8,519,741 , called for bonds not matured for which four per cent, bonds have been issued, $216,628,200 ; outstanding legal tender notes, $346,681,016; outstanding frac tional currency, $15,976,412.34. The Dime savings bank of York has suspended. The following notice was posted on the door: The demand npon the Dime savings institution during the past few days having been largely in excess of possible collections the trustees have been advised by a majority of the stockholders, Injustice to all depositors to proceed as promptly as possible to collect its outstanding maturing paper in order that there may be the least delay practicable in meeting its liabilities. The liabilities are not yet known, but it is supposed the bank will pay 75 or 80 cents on the dollar. Samuel Hunter, age fifteen em ployed as a cart driver at the Bessimer steel works, Pittsburg, was found dead Thursday evening. Circunwtances in dicate that he was murdered. Thirty minutes after he left the company's tables his dead body was found on the rfver bank, his face and body was cov ered with cuts and stabs and bis head badly crushed, as though some blunt weapon had been used. John Lawler and Martin Murray, with whom Hun ter had quarrels a short time ago and who threatened him with vengeance have been arrested on suspicion and will be held to await the coroner's In vestigation. Mr. Blockfan, superintendent of the foreign mails, is in receipt of Information from Thomas C Mont gomery, of Rochester, New York, that a letter mailed there on the 9th of last December, has accomplished the circuit of the globe in eighty-seven days. It left San Francisco December 11, Hong Kong January 17, London February22, and arrived back at Roch ester March 6. This is the fastest time on record, and probably the best obtainable without an acceleration of the- speed of steamships and loco motives on the routes traversed, the letter Laving exactly hit every one of the connections. Mr. Tilden is now hard at work arranging for the campaign of 1880, and there is no longer any doubt but what he will appear in the Democratic national convention as a-formidable candidate for nomination. Smarting under the defeat of 1876, and lamenting the vast sum of money that be expend ed he- determined to make another effort to regain what he lost on that occasion. The Democrats are divided as to whether he is the best matt' they should take or not, but the prospect ef the large sum of money that he will put up has a powerful influence with many of them and they may yield there objections for the sake of seeing the contents of the fresh "bar'l" put in circulation.- On the other hand the Republicans are exceedingly anx ious that Mr. Tilden should be the standard bearer again as they feel con fident that the odium of his last cam paign will be sufficient to overwhelm ingly defeat Ilim; in other words they eonsfdfcr him the weekest man the Uemocrata could put up and will not Washington Letter. From our regular oorreipondeut. Washington, D. C, March 11, 1879. The forty-fifth Congress has ended its career and gone down to history. On account of the political issues in volved In its last acts, the closing days were rather exciting, and attended by larger crowds than usually interest themselves in the winding up. In fact both day and night sessions for the last three days have had packed galleries and Tuesday morning when tho last hour approached there was not standing room anywhere within sightor hearing. The Democrats seem to have astonished themselves by the pluck displayed in the determination to force a repeal of the supervisors law, and they have thereby carried their point to the extent of securing an extra session, with a majority in both houses. It was generally believed that they would weaken at the last moment and accept a compromise, the Senate having offered to repeal the test oath and omit the posse comiatmus clause of the Array bill if the supervisors law was permitted to stand. But the latter is what the Democrats were chiefly fighting against, and they stood firm. Mr. Springer was obliged to abandon his committee's proposed impeachment of Minister Seward, because the Republicans proposed to filabuster the session out in his defense, But it does really seem, from the evidence, and from his refusal to produce the books upon the ground that they might criminate him, that Seward must have deserved what he just missed getting. The scenes at the lost night session were interesting, but very different from what was witnessed last June, when the last night especially in the Senate, was but narrowly removed from a drunken carousal. Perhaps the memorable notoriety that occasion received served as a warning. In the house, notwithstanding the partisan feeling which pervaded both sides, there was a remarkable absence of personal animosity, on the part of members toward their political oppon ents. Conger, of Michigan, was the most active and irritating of the antag onists, against whose attacks the Dem ocrats were all the time called upon to defend themselves. But he and Springer, of Illinois, whom he seemed specially intent on annoying, were, whenever they met in the isle, or when they acted as tellers together, in as amicable and pleasant a mood as if no stinging sarcasms ever passed between then. It was the same with Atkins and Foster, with Southard and Gar field, and with all the other mutually hostile elements. On one occassion, when Springer tried to get iu some re marks out of order. Gen. Butler planted himself squarely in front of mm, ana aiscnargea a volley or "1 objects," each louder and more emphatic than the one before; and he kept at it until he carried his point. And as he walked over to his desk again he gave, as a reason for his de monstration, that he was not going to listen to abuse of a friend of bis. There was less of tumult and uproar than at most any other last night of congress, ana tnere was not the least sign of that hilariousness which has sometimes characterized such night sessions. The attendance of members all through the twenty-two hours of the sittng was quite large, and when the vote indicated the absence of a quorum it was generally because members refrained from voting. Some of the oldest members, notably Gen. Butler, and Messrs. Patterson and Townsend of New York, were among those who shqwed the least signs of fatigue, and after the brief recess of one and three-fourths hours they were the earliest in atten dance. The Speaker was seldom out of his chair, and he steered the House through the sudden storms and quick sands of parllmentary navigation with great skill, tact, moderation and im partiality. The extra session of the Forty-sixth Congress, already called to convene March is, will very likely last until June. There will be a livelv contest among the Democrats over the organi zation oi vne two nouses. vine only necessary annroDriation that failed to pass the now defunct Congress was that providing for the legislative, ex ecutive, and judicial expenses of the overnmeni. rne proposition or tne ienate to appropriate $J50,000 to build national museum on the Smithsonian grounds to receive the present col lection of Centennial exhibits, donated oy ioreigu powers, ana ine constant additions from all parts of the world that remain in unopened boxes, was reeeded from. Something like this ought to be- done, however, and some ot these days, when all our teotle don't feel so poor as now, such a pro position may pass. The failure of the Brazilian steamship subsidy to pass the House surprised nobody aequain ted with the situation. Lots Of people don't agree with Blaine and a few others that such a scheme would make the country rich from trade with Brazil, though nearly everybody can see how it would nave been a good thing for John Roach and his partners Taking all things into consideration, the lobby has not fared particularly well at the hands of the retiring Con gress. x nave not heretofore felt inclined to criticise the action of executive officers. But the Commissioner of Pensions has. recently been guilty of so gross an outrage upon right and decency, that x cannot retrain irom paying nim some deserved attention. He has been urging upon Congress, with all Els strength a radical change or the pension laws, by which he proposes to do away with the present examin ing surgeons and mode of proving Bp a pension claim, by dividing the whole United States into districts, and assigning to each one a surgeon and clerk, before whom all claimants for pension must appear with their witnesses. This scheme is so impract icable and so unjust towards soldiers whose witnesses, sate hi rarest in stances, are, if alive, scattered all over the conntrv. that the pension attorneys of Washington combined to defeat the measure. Fot this be suspended some sixteen of them from practice before nis Department, ana puousnea in em as guilty of fraud. Yet he had not a scintilla of evidence in support of his action, and his assigned reason was a deliberate falsehood. The injured men should subject him to the severest penalties of the law. I shall ventilate this matter more fully hereafter, for, though ho has reinstated all excepting two of the suspended men, yet a delib erate wrong done, simply because one possesses the arbitrary power to do it, should he exposed in all its enormity. It can scarcely be said that the publio will be overwhelmed with grief at the news that this or that young woman, or the whole of them in fact who are now striving in diffe rent parts of the country to walk thous ands of miles in thousands of days, or perhaps hours or minutes we do not feel greatly interested in the matter and are not quite sure of the terms of these matches has had two hundred faint ing fits at the end of each of two hund red consecutive minutes and has given up the match, the chance of glory, the gate money and a possible silver ser vice. One young woman in Brooklyn, we believe, has been attacked with fits, and undoubtedly nine out of ten of these misguided females have suc ceeded in permanently injuring their constiturlons, but good may come of these failures in discouraging other foolish ones from doing likewise. The public is thoroughly tired of the busi ness, and nothing less than a million miles In a million hours, and by a lame man at that, will now be able to engage the public attention. N. Y. Pott.
