Donald Macleod, minister of the Park Church, Glasgow, to be one of her Majesty's chaplains I In ordinary in Scotland, in the room of Dr. j Norman Macleod, deceased. -A Berlin physician recently tried to ??ssev er the bodies of two twlUB girls grown togeth? er like the Siamese twins.

The commissioners oil charities bave consented to take charge of two hundred and fifty children for the present. -The master masons of London have made au arrangement by which nine hours are to constitute a day's work, the reckoning being 11 made by laking the average oi thc whole year, 11 giving less than nine hours in winter and 11 enough more than nine hours in summer to equalize the time. The carpenters have effected a compromise with their employers by agreeing to abide by a code o? working rules, to be settled by a board composed of an equal number ol employers and workmen, and thus the lockout In tbe building trade in Lon don ls terminated. -The Savannah News, the opposition of I which to Greeley bas been such a comfort to j the Grantltes, goes back on them In this fash-1 i ion: '-The Macon Telegraph quotes from For- J < ney'a Press of the 17th Instant a paragraph j j attributing to the News a statement tbat 'Grant I ( will beat Greeley twenty thousand' in this j State. The statement aforesaid was incorpo? rated in an article written Borne weeks be-11 fore the nomination of Greeley at Baltimore, j1 and was Justified by public sentiment at that 11 time. Since then lhere has been a tremen- i dous revolution among Democrats, and lt the 1 negroes enter the campaign with their .pre-? I < sent apathy, the Greeley ticket will carry the I ? State with little or no opposition." I , -It is stated that Italy and Germany have I an understanding that In case of the death of Pope Plus IX they will resuscitate the right of I veto held by certain Catholic powers in olden I ! times upon tbe election of the head of the 11 Roman Catholic Church. Austria, lt is said, I . agreed to act ia concert with Italy and Ger-1 ' many provided France would do tbe same; 11 but M. Thiers has flatly refused to enter into j I any arrangement ol the kind, at the same < time declaring that In his opinion the right of IJ the veto has long ago ceased In every country . in Europe, and that, were it otherwise, he I ! would never sanction any interference o( the ] State in religions matters. The college of j' cardinals have resolved that upon the death ' ol the present Pope, if any attempt ls made to ' Influence their votes they will at once proceed < to Malta and hold the election there. \ -The latest novelty in the way of street car ( motive power ls now In operation on the New j Orleans and Carrolton Street Raliway. On a \ four-wheel truck about halt the length ol an ordinary passenger car are a boiler, a tank ! and a double cylinder engine ot seven inches ! stroke. The tank is filled with about three ] hundred gallons of water. This water ls heat- 1 ed at the depot in a stationary boiler and dis- . charged Into the tank at the beginning of each < trip. In this manner enough steam is pro- ? vlded to propel the car nine miles, and have a ? surplus of power left at the end of the trip, j One man performs the duties of engineer, brakeman and conductor. There is no escape of steam, nor any noise beyond that ordinarily caused in running a passenger car; and a trial 1 of nearly three months bas shown this uew ?' motor to be not only practicable, but much .' cheaper than horse power. The actual run- > nlng expenses bave been one dollar and forty- ; eight cents per day. ' -The new French loan, it ls believed, will , cause a considerable shifting of specie and . hallion in Europe from one financial centre to another, the effect of which is likely to be felt * on this side of the Atlantic. Advices from 1 Germany state that at the last semi-monthly ' settlement on the Berlin Bourse, money was ( worth seven to eight per cent, on stocks, and 1 that bullloa was flowing from Berlin. In all ( I parts of Germany manufacturing ls very ac? tive, except in tbe Iron districts, aod orders from the United States are reported to be quite large. This naturally creates a demand (or money, which ia increased by the con? tinued payments on account of new enter? prises formed during the late speculative mania in Germany. All these facts have their Influence at the financial centres of this coun? try, and the natural result is increased firm? ness in gold and foreign exchange. -It is safe to presume that President Juarez is in reality dead, in defiance of the usual rule that Mexican news Is to be interpreted by contraries. The report comes through govern? ment channels and is fortified with accounts of flags at half-mast and general surprise and consternation. With the death ' of Juarez, Mexico loses the one man amoDg Its native statesmen who has been able to give it even a semblance 01 established government and to maintain a technical, it not always a practical, authority over all parts of that very volcanic nation. To render Mexico peaceful and quiet underany constitutional government ls a work beyond the scope of human powers; but Juarez has done the next best thing in holding bis own against revolutions and conspiracies and keeping the capital out of the hands of the insurgent?. His death, In the midst of the long struggle against the present Insurgents, is likely to remand Mexico again to anarchy, since the predilections of his successor, Chief Justice Tejada, are not to be trusted as thor? oughly patriotic. The Way the Money Goes. The affidavit of Mr. Treasurer Parker and the accompanying statement of receipts and payments, submitted to Judge Willard in the Gibson case, throw considerable light upon the operations of the Treasury Department since the first day of last November. Mr. Parker is unable, for the reasons which he J gives, to furnish a detailed account of the various expenditures, but the monthly re? ports made to the Comptroller-General, which are now under examination, will clear up many points upon which information is desired. Turning, first of all, to the state? ment of receipts, as printed elsewhere, it is seen that the total amount is $1,115,911). This hage sum was paid into the Treasury in about eight months, and, of the whole amount $950,613 came from the taxes of 1871, and $34,782 from the Liceose tax. The State tax for 1871 was at the rate of 7 j mills on the dollar, and was payable between November, 1871, and January 15, 1872. A J previous tax, that of 1870, had been collect- J ed only a few moDths earlier. Taking the I assessed value of all the taxable property in the State at $150,000,000, the State tax for I 1871 should have produced $1,"050,000. The I Treasurer reportr the receipt of $950,613; j so that fully nine-tenths of the tax was promptly paid. This is a sufficient answer to the charge that the State credit is rained by the failure of the people to pay the taxes. The amount received from the License taxis surprisingly small, but the Land Commission is credited with $3785, and the South Caro-1 lina Phosphate and Mining Company has paid $500. What has been done with the money ? The creditors of the State are clamoring for the payment of their claims. Where are the million of dollars which were paid into the Treasury between November 1, 1871, and July, 1872 ? | A striking feature in the exhibit of dis? bursements is the absence of any large I charge for the payment oT interest on the J ?tate debt. Only S3354 were paid for inter-1 est Tho bloated bondholders have not ab- j sorbed a million dollars in eight months; j although they were doubtless able and anx-1 ions to do so. The Free Schools are charged j with $117,671; an item to which no one] would object if there were any assurance j that the money was properly and profitably spent A loan for the payment of interest on the public debt cost $1082 ; about one- J third as much as the amoant of interest paid. Most of the remaining items aro fair enough, but they do not account for the missing mi!- I lion. It is not seen where that went to, until the charges for salaries, for the armed force, I and fer legislative expenses, are examined. I Mr. Parker reports that $103,566 was paid J Tor salaries, and $82,723 for the armed force. I What is this force ? Where ia it ?. Who drew J the money? Why did they draw it? This j is one of the disbursements which will bear I critical examination ; although we say here I :hat we do not charge Mr. Parker with any j official misconduct in confection with I ;hese accounts. Assuming that the pay- j nents were authorized by law, he bad nothing I :o do but to keep on paying as long as any I money remained in the Treasury. The mount paid out in the eight months for I legislative expenses is $510,9C3. Before the war the cost of a legislative session was j about $40,000. Here is a charge of ten I times the amount, wilhont counting in the j, public printing. Nor is that all. Mr. Par- i ker says that, by authority of a Joint Reso-1 i lution of the General Assembly, he has J issued notes for money borrowed io pay the pay certificates of the members of the Legis-1 ? lature, and these notes amount to $399,312. Here we have in tbe neighborhood of one mil ion dollars-the entire tax collection of one fear-swallowed up in the pay of members iud attach?s of the General Assembly and in I incidental expenses. Nor does this take into account what orders on the County Treasurers, issued by Mr. Parker, may be in ;heir possession. No figuring of which we tre capable will account for these enormous iebts. During the session of 1871-72 there I ivere appropriated for legislative expenses I [including the deficiency appropriation for I. he session of 1870-71) only $450,000. j [ ?Vhence comes then the authority for an J ! ?xpenditure of at least a million ? It must j ' ae found, if found anywhere, in the Joint Re3oluticn of March 12, 1872. Again and ?gain has it been charged that Speaker I Moses has flooded the State with pay certifi . sates, using them as a bribery fund to secure 11 his nomination for Governor. Judging by j what he says and what he does, there is no i limit to the number of pay certificates which may be issued. i These are only the most salieut poiuts of I the statements printed to day. There is no guess-work about it. The State Treasurer is authority for the figures; they are the j j official admissions of a high officer of the i government. It needs not to go farther] ? The record of extravagance and profligacy 3xpo8ed in the short reports of Mr. Parker ls i jnough to condemn the Radical party to jveriasting shame. Yet it is not to be doubted 1 ;hat nearly every member of the Legislature, J he body which authorized these monstrous expenditures and is responsible for them, viii have the effrontery to come before his I .onstituents and ask for a re election. The Georgia Bond Frauds. The Investigating Committee of the Geor? gia Legislature submit a report giving the result of their inquiries into the swindling schemes of Governor Bullock and his asso? ciates. They rind that thc fraudulent issues of Slate and railroad bonds amount to about $6,000,000, and present to the Legislature bills repudiating the Brunswick and Albany bouda, Brunswick and Albany gold bonds, Cartersville and Van Wort bonds, anil Bain? bridge, Cuthbert and Columbus bonds, and declaring all null and void ; also a bill de? claring void one hundred gold bonds held by Henry Clews. Resolutions are introduced recognizing the validity of the quarterly gold bonds issued under the art o? 15th Septera .ber, 1870; requiring that bonds hypotheca? ted be redeemed by payment of the borrowed money; declaring that the endorsement of the South Georgia and Florida' Railroad bonds, and the Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad bonds is valid; also that the cur? rency bonds issued AuguBt, 1870, having been cancelled by gold bonds, are not bind? ing. The Governor and Treasurer are pro? hibited from paying the interest or principal' of any of the bondB declared invalid. The plan in Issuing railroad bonds is ex? emplified in the case of the Brunswick and Albany Road, 243 miles. For this road the State agreed, on the completion and equip? ment of sections of ten miles, to endorse the bonds of the road to the amount of $15,000 per mile. Before this road was completed for half its proposed length, over $5,000,000 worth of bonds had been issued. In other cases, the Ring issued duplicate bonds for the same sections of completed road, and boldly forged the signature of the State Treasurer when that formality was necessa? ry. Well might one of the committee say that the knowledge of tie facts, in the Geor? gia swindles, "would bring tears of envy to "the eyes of Tweed." The truth is worse than was expected, but a like investigation would reveal frauds quite as hideous in the reconstruction history of South Carolina. For years the whole influence of the National Government bas been exerted to sustain just | such thieving concerns as that of Georgia, and the natural remedy is that which the committee unhesitatingly propose. That Bine Bldge Case. It is commonly believed in Columbia that the original plaintiff in the petition for the appointment of a receiver of the Blue Ridge Railroad bad no higher motivo than to force tho controllers of the road to pay a disputed claim which he holds. However this may be, it is conceded that the action of Mujor Corbin, in making the City of Charleston a party to the cause, bas upset the little game, and puts it out of the power of any one per? son to drop the case. This will come up again next week, when it will be pushed vigorously forward. Is it not strange that so much argument and entreaty, on the part of THE NEWS, should have been necessary before the City Council would consent "to "make an effort" to save something of the municipal million out of the Ore? All the Dombey a are not yet defunct. The Long Stroke. The latest Northern papers Iring us tho particulars of the great college regatta that bas been the one thought of those interested in aquatic sports in New England for some time past. The colleges represented were Harvard, Yale, Amherst and Brown. The race was won by Amherst by twenty-seven seconds, Harvard being second. The race is noticeable for giving the American crews another illustration of the advantage of the long and steady English stroke. When the Harvards went over te Eogland, they found too late that their short, quick stroke was sure to be beaten by a slower aDd longer one in a straight race. Profiting by this, they dropped their stroke to about thirty eight or forty, and in this race never went above forty-two; while Yale, which pulied the quickest stroke of all, came in last. It is conceded that bad steering alone was the cause of the defeat of the Harvard crew, otherwise their stroke would have brought them in the victor. l -Governor James L.
