NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at lOJall. -The New York cotton market closed steady at 19c for up'and?; sales 3500 bales. -The Liverpool market closed strong; up - lands 9ja9jd. Orleans 9|d; sales 18.000 bales. -The average fall of snow at Cincinnati, yesterday, was four and a half inches. -The Canadian Colonization Society, com? posed of British subjects, hat. passed a r?solu tlon favoring the annexation ot Canada to the United States. -The Louisiana State lair was formally opened at New Orleans yesterday, fifteen thousand visitors being present. The lair continues until December 3. -A countryman bargained with a California photographer for a half-length picture of him? self at half price, and when the artist deliver? ed a fine view of bia subject from the waist? band down, the victimized sitter Indulged ID remarks more forcible than polite. -The public schools of Texas, according to a recent act of the Legislature cf that State, are to be supported by the proceeds of the sales of the public lands, and one-fourth c f all the taxes raised are to be applied to the same j object. -A New York paper says : "David Dudley I - Field has been employed as Republican conn-1 ! sel to assist Reverdy Johnson in the argument of Ku-Klux cases in South Carolina. It ls ex-1 peered that Judges Bond and Bryan will dis? agree in opinion, which will have the effect of I bringing the case before trie Supreme Court at Washington, andthustest the constitutionality of the law." -The Navasota (Texas) Tablet of the 4th Instant says : "One thousand persons are about to settle on lands Just outside of town, with every faci'ity offered to them by tba own? ers, and at a nominal rent for some of the best land in the country. A Catholic church and school-house will be built for them; also, quar. ter?. A priest will reside la their midst There are thousands of acres which will be J offered with the same inducements to lmmi grants settling In our midst." -The vine was planted ls Cali lom i I nearly one hundred years ago by the first missiona? ries. But now the grape region consists of a vast area ol mountain lands, too high and dry j for other crops. On this soil the grape flour-1 isbes and produces better wine than In the J moist valleys. It is estimated that there are J thirty mUllon vines growing In California, I whl?'j the number ls increasing every year. ? Los Angelos ls the eldest vine-growing county, , and leads in the production of wine. AB the I ?Ines grow older the productiveness becomes greater. The wine interests is destined to as- 1 sume magnificent propor' is io C iii forma. - During the past three years forty-nine of I the August meteors have been so successfully ! Identified, at different stations, that their dis- ? tance from the earth could be calculated, j Their average height at appearance was found | to be about seventy-seven miles; at disap-1, pearance, fifty-four miles. Toe velocity, I j relatively to the earth, was estimated at I ( thirty-four to thirty-seven miles per second, j ' Astronomical theorists long ago set dovo the 1 average velocity at thirty-eight miles to the 1 second. The above observations show that their reasoning brought them very near the 11 correct figures. 11 -In Munich it ls required by law that every ? corpse, whatever the cause of death may be, | shall be publicly exposed at the cemetery be lore the burial service can take place. Tue rigid features of the dead can be clearly seen through the broad windows of the room, their bodies elegantly draped and covered with flow? ers. In the right band of each ls a small cord that reaches upward to a bell. A watchman ls always at hand. Burial alive is su; posed to be impossible under this arrangement. The law has been enforced for hundreds of year-, but there ls no record of a life saved by lt. Snch a law invades the sanctity of private grief. -This ls the age of exploded myths. The latest character ro disappear is Lycurgus, the j1 famous Spartan lawyer. Herr Trleber, author I of a newark in German on "The Spartan Constitution,*' finds that ihe Greeks them? selves vere divergent to the extent of a cen-1 tury as to the time when Lycurgus lived; that I all existing accounts of him are traceable to an obscure writer named Eupnoru?, whose j works have perished, frogmen's only surviv- j lng lr. Plutarch and A'Utotle, and ihat Eupho rus was untrustworthy, and an inventor of I names and dates. All, therefore, that re-1 mru'ns is the possibility of lhere having once I lived In Sparta a man named Lycurgus, but of I his age, life and work we have no tm PI won hy account whatever. -ii wild woman of the woods, attired after the fas ?J ion of our original mother, tall and slender In figure, and with "the air of the queen ol thd forest," swift as a deer, and hav? ing an ova face, "set with keen black eyes, and framed in long manses of flowing black I hair," is just now, naturally enough, one would say, exercising the rustics of the village of Gebharrlsville, Somerset County. Pennsyl? vania, by her presence in their vicinity. This female Casper Hauser, it appear.? affects not men or women either. As to mao. with the j admirable premonition of her sex, "she I bounds away over fenceB and fields whenever one attempts to approach her. Yet," adds the j local reporter, "she ls consistent, and avoids in like manner too great familiarity with women." But for children this poor creature has a great fondness; she even goes to the ex? treme or stealing them Irom their parents at favorable opportunities. -The lock-up of gold by the Prus-ian Gov? ernment has now reached its highest point The different German Governments will pay off their bonds and other obligations to the enormous extent of seven hundred million t alers, equal to about $">75,000,000 currency, I c mmencing the let of Jauuary, and from tbat ?a?e to April 1 next year. This will, ii Is be? lieved, produce a currency expansion and .peculation In securities tornew'. t analogous to what took place ia the United States from 1862 to 1864, owing^te the issue of about one thousand millions of greenback dollars, which at that time were not worth so much In gold as the seven hundred millions of Prussian thalers. The expansion from this operatiou is excltinz the hopes of railroad men having bomb for sale, that some of the surplus capi? tal tliere may seek investment here. From present indications our various enterprises will be found tufficiently extended to absorb any amount or capital Europe may have to spare. -The almost constant retirement of Queen Sc? oria from public view since the death of Prin ce Albert has been made thD occasion of many uncharitable and some very absurd statements None have been more unkind than the recent? ly extensively circulated story that retirement was but a screen for her insanity, behind which she babbled In her paroxysms like an idiot with the spirit of her departed husband. It can easily be understood how the mind may become morbid under the influences of grief | and isolation, but mere retirement from the glare of public lite, while yet surrounded by every social influence royalty might command, makes but a poor apology tor such suspicions. There have been several informal contradic? toria of the story referred to of late, and now ve trve the positive assurance of the Queen's j.bvsi ian that "ali reports that her Majesty has shown any symptoms of mental weakness are unqualifiedly false." It is a pity that such testimony has been deemed necessary in the case; but since it is given, it Is to be hoped that with it ends the poor sensation. The State Debt. The statement of the public debt pre? pared by Mr. Treasurer Parker, aa printed in THE NEWS of yesterday, is ample proof, if such were needed, that there has been monstrous extravagance, as well as a sta? ll ietl suppression of the truth, in the manage? ment of the fiscal affairs of the State. According to Mr. Parker's accounts, the bouda printed by the present administration are as follows: For the Redemption of the Bills Re? ceivable .$ 500,000 For the Payment of Interest. 2,000,000 For the Relief of the Treasury. 1,000,000 For the Land Commission. 700,000 For the Redemption ol Bills of the Bank ot the State. 1,590.000 For the Conversion of State Securi? ties. 8,200,000 For the Sterling Loan. 6,000,000 For Certificates of Conversion of Stock. 2,550,000 Total printed.$22.540,000 Of this amount there are said to be on hand, on Deposit, and Destroyed.$10,053,600 Used in Transactions not affecting the Debt. 2,953,200-$13,007.000 Bonds Issued and in Circulation ...$ 9,533,000 Add Old Debt.$6,665,908 Less Redeemed. 212,000-$ c.453,908 TOTAL DEBT, as we understand It.$15,966,908 From this amount Mr. Parker deducts: Sinking Fund Bande... $ 200,000 In use U3 Collaterals... 3.773,000-$ 3,973,000 TOTAL DEBT at this time, ac? cording to Mr. Parker.$12,013,906 We cannot, however, admit this as a fair set-off. The S200,000 of Sinking Fond Bonds may be properly deducted if tbe bouc s can be produced when required, but the bonds under hypothecation are security Tor about $900,000 due the Financial Agent, and it is plain that either the $900,000 in money or the S3,773,000 in use as collaterals ru:ist be treated as a part of the actual debt of the State. Returning to tbe statement of the bonds printed, ($22,540,000,) we find that the ?raount is far less tbun was expected. But t is not clearly explained why so nany blank oonda were needed. Again, the people will require that all the bonds stated to be io band shall be produced; also, that proof shall be given that the bonds written off as iestroyed were so destroyed ; alao, that the S2,953,000 mysteriously used "in ordinary "transactions, not affecting the debt," shall be properly accounted for. The Treasurer says that the facts and data are open to the public. And we hope that trusted represen? tatives o? the public will toke Mr. Parker | j at bia word. As to the amount or bonds issued under the acts for the redemption of the bills re? ceivable, for the payment of interest, and and for the relief of the Treasury, we need only repeat that, under the letter of the law, the financial officers might issue as many bonds as were necessary to raise, in money, the suma required, viz: $2,500,000. But it mast not be forgotten that the State officers have, aga! and again, declared that the booda issued under these three acta amounted to only the several sums author? ized, or $2,500,000 in all. Until the impromptu investigating commit? tee of citizens shall have announced the re? sult of their examination, we refrain from unalyzing more thoroughly Mr. Parker's exhibit. We may say, however, that we are more and more convinced that, aa one result of the present agitation, the people will ob? tain an accurate statement of the public debt. By hook or by crook, this will be had. Industrial Partnerships. Co-operation bas not yet done much for the operative classes in the United States. The co-operative groceries of Connecticut were failures; the building oaaociationa or the same State provd mostly unsuccessrul ; the efforts at co-operative distribution in the Novelty Iron Works, in New York, came lo nothing. One firm, however, in that city, it appears from a communication in the Lon? don Spectator, hos made a remarkable and successful experiment in thi3 direction, to which the attention or all students or thia great problem should be called. The Mes3rs. Brewster, carriage makers, of New York, state that finding, aa their business en? larged, they were necessarily more and more thrown out of communication and sympathy with their employees, and that thu?? misun? derstandings might arise which would lead to Btrikes, and knowing that a valuable busi? ness like theirs would be greatly injured by a sudden strike, they resolved io give their workmen a permanent interest in their busi ness. They reaolved to pay their men the high? est wages or the trade, aid in addition a certain abare of the prout, before capital or tbe managers were paid, an 1 to put each year by itself, so that io the event of the capital being seriously impaired, the men would not have to make np the losses of the employers. The percentage with which they com? menced was ten per cent, of the profits. They also gave the men great power in the admin? istration ortheconcern, allowing the "Board "of Governors" at any time to pass a resolu? tion advancing the wages, and only giving the president (one of the firm) the power of vetoing, but in case the resolution was re passed by a two-thirds vote, permitting it to be law. From this liberal arrangement they have experienced no annoyance or obstruction to their business. Harmony has reigned, they state, throughout the establishment, and the utmost good feeling prevails between em? ployers and workmen. There is, in every part of the factory, the most careful cleanli? ness and good order. Far greater economy is shown in every department, the men are more punctual in attendance, there is a less WP.ste of stock, and improvement in all di? rections. The work is better done and the production more valuable than under the old plan. Their first dividend was made in July, 1870, for six months, of three and seven eighths per cent, amounting to $3600; the last was in July, 1871, of four per cent., or $8200. fastener's Sitters. ~^1TH?1KW?^ DENCE.-Whence comej that firm reliance, that absolute, undoubtlng faith in the efficacy or HOS TETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS as a remedy for indigeatlon, billons disorders, intermittent and remittent fevers, which notoriously prevails in all parta of the Dnited States ? This confide nee has been growing for twenty years, and lt is still ex? tending. It ls net the remit of credulity; it has not been engendered by any beman device, but ls the spontaneous and natural consequence of ex? perience. What people see dally going on under j their own eyes they cannot question. When rami? lles In unhealthy districts, that resort to this wholesome vegetable toe lc as a preven'Ive, escape periodical fevers, end the r immediate neighbors, who neglect that precaution, are prostrated by the distases, how ls it possible that the phenome? non should be without its lesson ? In like man? ner when lt ls seen that obstinate cases of dys? pepsia, of liver complaint, of constipation, of | net vous weakness, and or general debil ty, yield to the operation or the famous remedy, how can even lncredn Ity ltaelf withhold ita endorsement? Eye-witnesses of the salutary effects of the Blt-, te:s are to be found In every civilized settlement on this continent. The thousands upon thous? ands who owe their restoration to health and strength, or their preservation from sickness to its extracrdlnary medicinal properties, are en? thusiastic in Its praise. The multitudes who re? commend it in a neighborly way to their friends and acquaintances, as well as those who make public their estimate or its virtues, are always ready to state their reasons for the filth that ls In them. They have all either felt or wltnee.-ed its beneficent operat ons. nov36-stnth3D*c dc?ncational. MISS C.
