The national debt amounts to $2, 100,000,000, upon which thiei's is a permanent interest charge qf $12Q, 000,000. State, county and municipal debts aggregate $1,500,000,000, the perma nent interest charge on which is $105,000,000 per almlunil. The annual national taxation is $315,000,000 ; the annual taxation, 5450,000,000 ; the totttl:anual taxa tion is $765,000,000; total intorost; $225,000,000. . , The assessed value of property i 1870 was $14,000,000,000. The total debt is $3,600,000,000 on which we pay $225,000,000 aycar. In addition to this, the annual taxa tion of $766,000,000 amounts to $17 for each man, woman and child, or to $85 for each man in the coun try. The amnual taxes, then, leaving out the interest aecount, amount to 5} per cent. of the total assessed value of real and person estates in the United States. Meanwhile the industries of the country do not yield a not income of more than 3- per cent., and money is quoted somtimes in New York at a less rate. The bondhold prs have triumphod in Ohio. Look out for a further tightening of the screws, a further recletion of wages, a rapid succession of failures, and probably the most trying winter the poor have ever known..-Columuis Ti mens. The Great Pennsylvania Steal PImLADELPnIA, Octoher 21._A. comnunittee was appointed by the House of Representatives to invosti gate the affairs of the Treasury. The report of the investigation has developod the following facts : From 1861 to 1874 yearly over charge on interest account of public debt the diflerent Treasurors taking credit for paying more interest tihan The State debt bore. The grand aggregate thus unlawfully taken from the State Treasury in eleven years was $1,123,301.6(5. Second, from 1870 to 1874 there appears to have been . an oxces of premiums charged in purchiase~s of gold to pay interest on gold bearing hMuds, amounOltingr in all to $121,42i.05. Many other minor fraudulent trans actions, 'biut thoso mentioned aire the most important. Reoferring to the action of the ex-Treasurer in refusing to appear before the comn mission, the report says :"Certain ly it is fair to assume that all charges made are true, as5 the Treasurer does not appear when lawfully. sub1 pconaed and explain or deny them." Ui'just Suspicion. The other day a Detroit husband wvent en a tishing excursi on with a small party of friends. Retuirninig at mid night he pounded on the door mnd awoke his wife. As she le thinm into the hall she saw that something ailed him, and cried out: 'Why H-enr'y, your face is as red as paint.' 'Guesso'r n't,' he replied, feeling alonmg the hall. 'And I believe you'yo, been dinik ing m*ded.' 'WVhazz.er mnean by zhat ?' lie in Omired, trying to staLnd still. 'Oh! H-ouiry, your face would never look like that if you hadn't been drinking.' 'Mi to blame ?' he asked, tears in his eyes. 'Spozen big bass jumped up)'n hit me in lih' face an' make it red-mi to blame ?' .And he sat dlownl on thme floor and cried over her unjust suspiions. .Det1roit FPree Pres.. .The Ohi< radicals helped out their V etory by applealing to the mnost ig,. n:>rant bigotr'y. A s thiey 'introduced the relhgious qulestion into the. State campaign, they will doubtless~ make it an issue im the nationial contest next year. The party is naturally one of illiberal ideas, and if thme r'evi val of Know-.Nothingism is deslired, it is welcome to agii identify itself with the atroiou 'piniiciples of that defuncet organiz~ation. -Lou iu iee Ledger.

She Paddled her Own Boat. The train was approaching Atlanta, and the obliging conductor went up to the homely old lady who was evidently traveling alone, and said : "Madam, have you a companion ?" "Oh, yes, sir ; Marthy Ann made me fetch along her little black ridi kulo that she calls a kunipanyun 1" "Noino 1 I mean as escort !" "A what, sir ?" and she looked at him hard enough to break her spec tacles "A fellow-traveler with you ?" ex plained the conductor, desperately. She rose. Her uplifted hand looked deadly in 'its black mitten garniture. . "You good-for-nothing scamp I No, sir ! The idea of me, a lone woman, with no nateral pertector but a sheepskin covered New Testymeut, havin' a feller travelin' with me ! Your mother ought to weep over your iinperdence, young man, and I'll have ye to know that I kin git along in this world as well as any sixty-yor-old widder ye ever struck agin 1" By this timo the conductor was out on the platform, wiping the perspiration from his fac , and swearing that the old lady might "go it alono" to her heart's content. When the measles broke out among the nativos of New Zealand, twenty-ono years ago, just as the same disease has now broken out in the Fejee Islands, all efforts to euro the Moors proved hopeless. Their only idea of relief from fever and skin irritation was to plunge into the brook'wvhich ran by each "pah," so "driving the disease in," and making it fatal in a few hours. Chicago is putting on pious airs. She has a committee of church mom boers who wvere ap~pointed to suggest the best moans of getting up a re ligious. revival ; and yet, if she were to lay her hand on her heart and de clare the truth, she would tell you that she wvould rather have one first class prize fight, or even a game of base ball, than all the religious 're vitals you could'stir up in six months. Just as the doctors had gotten that Vineland editor fairly before the world as an illustration of the propo si tion that a man can live always with a bullet in his brain, lie has made up his mind, it is said, to hand in his cheeks. That an editor could be ca pablo of treating the doctors in so shabby a manner we find it very difficult to believe. An elderly lady named Cannon, of Massachusetts, was standing by an' iron sink during a thunder storm, when 'she wvas sprostrated by light ming., She wvas entirely senseless, and 'was so charged and bgttored by the electr'ic carront that . the gold b~oads on her neck weore melted, but she lives, and ascribes her escape to the silken cap she wore. A French scientist has invented now fis' bait. A bottle is lowereda mino the water by electiicity and Lh e shi are to follow it into the net.
