These, feccordinar to the Boston Globe, were keeping boarders, setting type, teach ing needleV'wii, labor in cotton mills land folding and stitching in book- binderies. Now there are 284 occupa tions open to women in Massachu setts, and -651,108 members of the gentler sex in that State alone earn their own living, receiving from $150 to $3,00u each per annum. A stkdiAL to the News and Courier announces that the Court of Claims on Monday gave a judgment in favor of Samuel Lawton ill One of the direct tax cases brought by Major Earle to nbtain the surplus proceeds of the sales iu Beaufort at which the Govern ment was the purchaser. ^TliM judg- knenl jblfodally overrules the decisions of the treasuiy department. A great many other cases will bo vigorously pressed as the decision involves over $70,000 directly, besides materially favoring fbrthcr recoveries on other grounds. It expressly holds that the lands were not forfeited to the Gov ernment by the Act of Congress and that titles passed only by the sale. It is about timp that the Government should show some sense of ju°tice in eonnection with the lands sold under the Direct Tax. Those sales were out rageous in their character, and ruinous in their effects upon the Beaufort peo ple, and thus far the courts of the tlnited States have denied them all redress. The Managers of the American Bible Society have just presented their sixty-seventh Annual fleport. During no previous year of the history of the ^Society have so many pages of the sacred word been issued $ and only a single year—the last of the great civil war—ranks the one just closed. In the United States the Fourth General Sup ply has been auspiciously inaugurated, nnd in foreign lands the Society lias entered new fleK^*, while in countries where the work bad been previously established it has been prosecuted with remarkable vigor and success. Three hundred and eleven bolporteurs have labored in this country, and two huie- dred and seventy-six iu foreign lands. The receipts for the year for general purposes were $598,041.91. Of this amount, $283,999.55 were received for books and on Purchase account; $184,170.20 from legacies; ft) 1 ?,387.83 in donations from auxiliary societies, churches and individuals'; $32,294.47 from rental*, and the balance from in terest and other sources^ Besides which, $53,000 have been added to the trust fund, the interest of which alone is applicable for general pUVposes. The disbursements for manufacturing and for all other general purposes were $596,-20$ .89. For the foreign work of the Society, to be expended during the year, the amount of $164,986.86 has been appropriated. The number of copies of the Scripture issued during the year is 1,676,232. The issues of tiie Society during sixty-seven years amount to forty-two millions, ciglity- three thousand, eight hundred and sixteen* A special to the Bismarck, Dakota, Trtbuic, dated Mondav, jrives the ful- iowrfig details of a fl »od ..t Dead wo >d: '‘‘Almost every day for a moartl? there has been a fall of rain, which haw ren dered the roads impassable and thor- onghly saturated the gronnd A heavy {hH'of snow followed, but disappeared rapidly under the heavy warm rain of Friday night and Saturday. Gulches or valleys in hills afe firom a few hun dred feet to probably a quarife'r of a mile wide. Deadwood is situated at the junction of Whitewocd and Dead- wood Gulches, and numerous other gulches their emptied accumulating waters from (lie mountains into these two main gulches, making a volume of water that rushed down White wood with resistless force. Central City, Anchor City and Golden Gate are on Deadwood Gulch, above Deadwood City. The greater portion of Central City was above the flood, but for Anchor City and Golden Gate there was no escape, the gulch there being not over 600 feet wide. Remington is entirely gone. The vallev is flooded and half of Spear Fish is washed away. Crook City is nearly all gone. The water is now falling, though there is much snow iu the mountains yet. George Chandler and his wile and two unknown men are known to have been drowned. Rope and basket commit-j nication has been established between the two parts of the city. The main residential portion of Deadwood is from 100 to 300 feet above the milch and the main business portion is also above the danger line. The portion destroyed was occupied by cheap tene ment bouses, second class hotels, laun dries, small traders, sporting houses, livery stables, etc. Some of the build ings are built over a stream which at its ordinary stage is but a few fdet wide. This locality is generally avoid ed, however, its danger being recog nized. "When the flood came timely warning was given by means of the telephone system which exists in the hills, and most of the valuable articles were removed by the residents. So far three bodies have been recovered; but it is believed now that the loss of life has been great. The flood swept everything before it excepting the most substantial buildings. The losses in Deadwood will reach $700,000.

SPRiMS STCOK THE SUX SEOT TIIEHET. THE TESTS OF 40YEARS PROVE BEYOND DOUBT THAT 0 18 er THE GREAT HEALTH KEEPER THE RELIEVER OF DISTRESS THE COMFORTER FOR PAIN THE ENEMY OF DISEASE AND A FRIEND OF THE FAMILY, WHICH SHOULD ALWAYS BE AT HAND. Ex-Governor Thos. B. Jeter died nt his home in Union county on lust Sunday afternoon. He had been quite ill for some little time, and for several days before his death great anxiety was felt by bis friends. Governor Jeter was fifty-seven Vv n's of age. He graduated from the South Carolina College in 1846, and iu 1848 was ad mitted to the practice of law. He was at one time associate'd with the late Thomas N. Dawkins, and gave prom ise of high rank in his profession. Tiie law was not to his taste, however, and he soon abandoned it for other pur suits. He was for some years presl* dent of the Spartanburg and Union Railroad, a position which be filled with credit. In 1872 Governor Jeter was elected Senator from Union coun ty, and his influence for good was felt even in those corrupt days. In 1877, upon tiie restoration of good govern ment, he was elected President pro tem. of the Senate, and, by virtue of that position, became Governor in the summer of 1880, upon the resignation of Governor Simpson to take bis seat on the supreme bench. In all these posi tions Governor Jeter showed his high character, modest worth and executive abiltiy. In 1882, he retired to private life, in spite of the earnest wish of his miinerons supporters to retarn him to the Senate. When the Railroad Com mission was organized he was induced to accept an appointment, and he was engaged iu the arduous duties of that position when he was attacked with Some Facts Going to Show that There Is something Iu It. [From the New York IL ral'l.] Judging by the number and violence of the atmospheric disturbances im ported all over the world during tic recent maximum display of solar ac tivity, the sun spot theorists seem to have made out a clear case. Accord ing to the best astronomical nnihori- ties the relative values of observed sun S|>ots steadily increased 3.4 in 1878 to 54.2 in 1881,811(1 further increased last venr, but are probably new at the maxiinfi.ii or on the decline. Mr. Garrett P. Serviss, in the last issue of the Popular Science Monthly, refer ring to tiie multiplied magnetic storms, cyclones, tornadoes and floods of the past two years, forcibly suggests that they furnish “a good deal of evidence in favor of the views of those who think a connection can be traced be tween sun spots and the weather.” Perhaps still more striking evidence of this connection will be seen by some in the returns of sea casualties for 1881-82 made to the London Board, of j Trade last month. Avery serious irt-1 crease iu the number of vessels lost, by all classes of casualties in that year as compared with the average of the five previous years is ofticiallv reported. How much of this increase is to bo, laid at the door of the weather, and UNDERTAKERS DEPARTMENT. how much to tiie rottenness of (lie lost ships and the carelessness of their owners and crews, cannot he deter mined* But, however that may be, it is worthy ot note that if there is any reliance to be put on the sun spot the ory the recent maximum of spotted ness is passing away and we may hope for a more quiescent state of terrestrial weather. A very competent scientific authority announced this spring to the Royal Society ot Edinburgh that he finds Hint “the maximum heat given off by the sun is when the sun.spot period is at the maximum, and the minimum heat given oft' is when the sun spots are at the minimum.'’ Upon this showing it may be expected that the coming season, while possibly Warmer than the average summer, will not be phenomenally hot. But no trustworthy forecast of the season based ou cyclical solar changes is possible in the present state of solar science.

W. PHILLIPS. Ap 19 THE MOST TICAOrC OF THAGEbltSS. A Dreadful Scene Knactcd In a UfldAl Chamber In South America. [From the Montevideo llnzoi i] A horrible affair took place recently at Rio Grande del Sur, near Hie Uru guayan frontier. A young farmer was bitten by a mad dog, and remedies were immediately applied to tbe wound. Cauterization was resorted to, and there was every reason td be lieve that the virus had not entered the victim’s system. When the accident occurred the young man was about to marry, but iu consequence of tbe un toward occurrence the ceremony was postponed for three months, when tbe medical men who were consulted on the case gave it as their unanimous opinion that there was not the slight est gronnd for apprehending any dan ger from the bite. Tbe marriage took place on tiie farm and was celebrated with the customary festivities. After the nuptial supper was over the bride groom appeared to be seized with a fit of melancholy. One of love’s caprices, said somebody. After supper camo j the hall, and when this was ai its height ihe newly-wedded couple with drew fVoiii the festive scene and retired to their apartment.
