Our mailing list Is always opon to tbe Inspection of advertisers. v Senator Crawford has our thanks for the Legislative ItecorJ, and other pnbllo documents. - Tite Chaplain of the House hi Augus ta, Maine, is reported to have used the following sentence in his prayer the other day: 11 Give these thy servants wisdom, for the Lord knows they need it." The Senate have at last confirmed the Presidents appointments in the New York CuBtom house and Naval office. Senator Couklln fought against it bitter ly, but the Senate have decided that Couklln Is not dictator, and nine-tenths of the people in the United States will gladly welcome the decision. The kfiukmic which is sweeping with such terrific effect through the southern part of Russia, and which can only be checked by burning Infected towns and villages, should send notes of warning to our own shores. We are in no Immediate danger, perhaps, but it would be the part of wisdom to take steps to guard against a more disastrous evil than that which ravaged the south last year. The nature of the plague which Is spreading consternation through the Russian Empire is unde termined. But the appalling fact that ninety per cent, of those attacked die, demands for it most earnest considera tion. Our direct trafio with Asiatic ports, or the ports of the Mediterranean, Caspian or Black Sea, is not great, but extensive enough to afford opportuni ties for bringing this dread pestilence. Precautions Against the Plague. London, Feb. 3. The Times'1 corre spondent at Berlin says that Russian railway cars are no longer admitted to German territory. The export of grain from Poland will suffer severely from this restriction. The Roumanian gov ernment are discussing the expediency of prohibiting the transit of Russian pro visions sent to victual the Balkan army. The Russian Sanitary Commission has proposed to shut off the Volga line from all intercourse with western Russia and permit communication only under quar antine. A Thief Instead of a Hero. For some time past, Detective Dear born, of Boston, has been investigating the circumstances attending the myste rious death of James V. Barron, cash ier of the Dexter, Me., Savings Bank, who was found in the outer vault of the bank, about 8 o'clock in the evening of ' February 22, 1878, bound, gagged, and in a dying condition. Barron died in a few hours after, and it was believed by the bank officers and all others that he had been murdered by burglars for re fusing to disclose the combination of tbe inner vault, and Barron became a hero for preferring death to a betrayal of trust. Tbe affair attracted universal attention at the time, and a considerable amount of money and was raised for Barron's family, chiefly from banks, as also for erecting a monument to him. The truth now comes out that Barron has been a systematic forger and defaul ter ; that he tied, gagged and locked him self in the vault ; that his death was caused, not by wounds recived from robbers (for these wounds were super ficial and self-inflicted), but from poison administered by himself. Where the Contingent Fund Goes A Dis graceful Report. A Washington dispatch is as follows : The Clerk of the House of Representa tives has just made his report of the expenditure of the contingent fund of the House for last year, and the state ment contains some very interesting items. The first items to attract atten tion appear under the title of " Disburse ments for fuel and oil under the appro priations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1878," and read so many tons of coal, so many cords of wood, so many gallons of oil. Then comes one dozen " squirt cans," $7; also, to J. H. K. Wilcox, ex pert to Committee on Expenditures in the Treasury Department, from March 8 to May 7,at$0 per day, $300." "J. II. K. Wilcox, expert, etc., from May 8 to June 8, loss than three days, at $Q, $180." This is Glover's celebrated ex jert, Profwwir Wilcox, the famous sla. tlstlcliiii, political economist, woman suffragist, and above all, reformer. He Is the man who claimed that there have been millions of dollars of money and bonds printed In the Treasury Depart ment and carried off by the Secretaries from Cliuse to Sherman, and these emi nent services are paid for as fuel and oil, along with "one dozen squirt cans." John CJ. Tlionipson.Bergeant-at Arms, presents an account of $937.80 for ex penses paid by the members of the House who went to attend the funeral of the late Senator Morton. The expenses of the funeral and of tbe Senators who at tended It were only $750. Among the other Items of the bill Is one which reads; " Amount paid George Driver, as per bill, $319.10." George Driver keeps a liquor saloon and wine room near the Capitol, and although no bill Is printed In report, it is of course un derstood that tills $410 represents the wine and whisky purchased for this trip. It has been reported here that the supply was so much greater than the demand although the demand was great that after the return from the funeral, certain Congressmen were able to have baskets of wine and demijohns of whisky sent to their lodgings. In addition this is a bill for $192 for a Pull man car for the use of the members of the House on the trip, notwithstanding the fact that $275.70 was paid for rail road tickets. More Senators went to the funeral than members of the House, yet for their car and tickets the Senators paid only $291. The House paid $99 for scarfs and gloves also for use at this funeral. The above is but a fair speci men of the list of charges. Counterfeiters Discovered by a Girl. For some time past a gang of counter feiters and moonshiners have been car rying on quite an extensive business in Preston county, W. Va., defeating all efforts at detection until Thnrsday last, when a girl hired by David Stenchel to nurse his wife made a discovery in an old chest in a room of Stenchel 's house of a lot of nickels, quarters and half dol lars and a set of dies for making coun terfeit money. The girl related the facts of her discovery to her father, who In turn related it to the authorities, and they Informed United States Commis sioner Henshaw, of Grafton, on Satur day last. The Commissioner immediately Issued warrants and placed them in the hands of United States Deputy Marshal Alex ander, who, with a posse of men, started on the 1st inst. to make the arrests of Stenchel, Campbell and Williams, coun terfeiters, and late that night the Mar shal returned to Grafton with his prls oners,havlng captured the parties named after a hard fight, during which numer ous shots were fired by both parties, none, however, taking effect. The prisoners were taken to Clarksburg, before United States District Attorney Goff, for a pre liminary hearing. On the way to Clarksburg Stenchel confessed by Baying that Williams and Campbell did the counterfeiting, and that they used him as their tool, they having leased an old bank near his house, in which they made tbe counter felt money, and paid him for circulating it. Tbe moulds are made of plaster Paris and gum arable, and tbe coin they made is difficult to tell from the genuine. Campbell and Williams are held in the sum of .$2,000 each, and Stenchel as a witness. Justice Conflicts with Law. Baltimore, Feb. 3. In the United States Clrcut Court, Judge Bond presid ing, to-day, the case of Thos. B. Perry, Robert B. Perry .William S. Wilkinson, Judge of election for the Eighth Dis trict of Ann Arundel county, was con cluded. They were indicted for holding the late Congressional election at a place other than that selected by the County Commissioners. They were found guilty and remanded for sentence. In the same court Policeman Louis Norrls was called to answer an indictment charging him with having stuffed a ballot-box In tbe Sixth ward at the late Congressional election. Defendant en tered a general demurrer, alleging that under the statutes of the United States stuffing a ballot-box Is not a penal of fense. Tbe demurrer was eustained,and the prisoner discharged. Supposed Case of Trance. Miss Anna Carter, a beautiful young woman, while at a sociable, last Friday, at Fort Edwards N. Y., dropped appar ently lifeless to the floor. As conscious ness was not restored it was supposed she was dead, and her funeral was to have occurred Thursday. When the hour for the obsequies arrived her parents refused to allow ber to le burled, afllrmlng their belief that she was only In a trance. The body is warm, and the flesh, after pressure with the hands, Indicates that the blood is still in circulation. The body will be kept for several days. Veins . In her hands and fect have been opened . and the blood flows freely. The body was burled after being kept six days, the family being convinced of her death. En. A Lancaster Farmer Deserts His Family. Lancaster, Feb. 15. Samuel M. Roop, a wealthy young farmer of West Earl township, this county, deserted his wife and family yesterday and eloped for parts unknown, taking with him as a companion a young woman who has been living In the family, and upon whom it Is said Roop has been bestow ing his affections for some time past. His flight was accelerated by the fact that his wife's mother threatened to prosecute him for adultery with the girl in question. Before leaving, Roop bor rowed about two thousand dollars from different parties, for which he gave judgment on his farm. He was traced to this city, where It Is supposed he took the cars for Philadelphia. To his friends he said he would be hack In a few weeks, unless arrested In the meantime. Roop is 24 years old and has been living with his father. All parties concerned are quite wealthy. Roop, It Is said, Is worth forty-five thousand dollars. Much pity is felt for the wife and family.
