Lee's room at Lexing? ton, Va,, University, ls to be kept "forever untouched." -The Iowa Agricultural Society offers a pre? mium of $1000, to be paid twelve years from nov, for the best ten acres of planted timber in the State. -Matilda Heron, who sets np a claim to the estate ot Mr. Byrne, of San Francisco, under the plea of being his widow, bas been denied all allowance from the estate by the courts. -Bismarcks says a Berlin Jenkins, smokes dally nine twenty-cent cigars, and drinks about lour dollars' worth of beer and wine. His tailor's bill annually amounts, on an aver? age, to $600; and be pays his servants, in the aggregate, about $2400 a year. -The Woman's Tea Company of New York city bas bought a ship and fitted It out for trade between New York and China. It has been named the Madame Demorest, after the president' of tbe company. This ls the first time a ship was ever bought and fitted out by women for commercial purposes. " -The Pall Mall Gazette says that after their expulsi?n from Germany the Jesuits of the Rhine provinces will go to Holland and Bel? gium, where they will remain lor a time, and bea go to EngTand and America. Most of the Jesuita of Silesia have already set out lor Ga? licia, where Ihe establishments of the order yet' exist -A Washington letter says: "Official ad? vices recel ved here lay good foundations for trouble -bot ween the United States and Mexl CCtc Nothwithstanldng the protest of this government against the outrages on the Mexi? can border on the life and properly of Citi? zen? of this country, and the appeals to join In some--'co-operative policy to secure a safer condition ot affairs on the Rio Grande, the Mexican authorities not only are indifferent to the representations of the government, but apparently encourage these offensive opera tloaav-The Mexicans bave also broken faith on the--Joint claims commission, which hos Deed in session here, and lt is probable that all the work thus lar. accomplished will jjlflSIBt t/v_t?a?tiing " -A 'New York letter says: "Prominent mekbers of the Cuban Junta in this city are quite sanguine as to the proposals they have oponed In London for a $20,000,000 loan. They say they can satisfy the great capitalists thea that, with funds to that amount In band, they can drive the Spaniards out before next ?pring, even If King Amadeus succeeds lu floating his loan of one hundred millions. What the'Cubana most fear is that the British Governmen; will Btep In and forbid subscrip? tions In aid o? a rebellion against a power with which lt has treaties. In any event, they talk aai ll the final fate of the present struggle must be decided In the European money mar? keta, If Spain gets her $100,000,000 and Cuba han to go away empty, the game will be up; hut should the conditions be reversed, they say .Cohan bonds will soon be selling at par." -The Congress ol Peru bas decreed the ab? olition of the death penalty, and fifteen years' imprisonment ls to be the maximum ol all pun? ishments in tbat republic. In Colombia, the maximum punishment, according to the Con etitutlon, ls ten years,andan article In the code provides that a convict shall have the third part of his sentence taken off if he shows elgns of repentance, which, of course, lt 1B not very difficult lor a convict to do. But the Legislature of Colombia has still further re duc^U^e^maxlmum penalty by decreeing that all punishments enumerated in the ponai laws shall bb diminished one third. So that lor the most ' horrid arson or murder a crimi? nal can be sentenced to no more than six years fed<four months in the penitentiary, and if he writs, h!? term must be diminished to four years, and eighty days. This certainly seems to be carrying mercy a good deal beyond jus? tice and security. \ -The removal of the remains of the Con? federate dead from the Antietam battle-field to *raB?fflil'Cem?teTy, near Hagerstown, ls now In.progress. The Mall says: "On Tuesday of laat week the disinterment of tbe dead from the battle-field of Antietam commenced. On the eastern or upper side of the lot ls located a circle, in which, for the present, a mound will be raised, which, In due time, we hope to see capped with a becoming shaft, 'To the Memory of the Unknown and the Recognized Southern Dead.' In a semi-circle around this mound, and on the gently sloping hillside, with their feet toward the common centre, are the ?hghtfy, curving sections containing the re? mains Ot those Southern soldiers who fell on surrounding battle-fields. Between these sec? tions are walks, avenues and a serpentine drive, which, when completed, will be every :thlng desirable. On Tuesday of this week there were deceived one hundred and forty two dead bodies from the field of Antietam, making the aggregate up to this time amount to three,.hundred and forty-seven. Among jthose received were two officers, whose names are preservad: Colonel Strong, of New Orleans, 'and Captain J. C. Whately, (acting colonel at the time of his death,} Company B, Tenth regiment, Alabama volunteers, Wilcox's brig? ade, Anderson's division. There are scattered graves of Confederates in different parts of oar valley, among whom are some officers whose names are preserved." -There laacharge ot murder pending in the London courts against a man for permit? ting himself to be shot. The circumstances of tue cese are extraordinary in all respects. Two young German gentlemen of respectable family visited London and in four days man? aged to expend tbe sum of two thousand dol ?wa la the pursuit of pleasure. At the end of that time, having exhausted their money, they came to tbe conclusion that there was .nothing lett to them worth living for, and agreed to die together. A few lines of fare? well-, were, written to some girls who had assisted In their revelries, alter which they locked their door and stripped themselves for death. One of the young men, named Paul May, stood up and the other shot him through the breast As May tell lo the floor, his companion flalsbed his work by shootlug himself through the heart It so happened that May was not mortally wounded, but ls In a fair way ofrocovery, and when be ls convalescent he ls to be taken be? fore the authorities to stand bis trial for wil? fully murdering the companion who shot him, in accordance with the verdict rendered by the coroner's Jury whloh investigated his case, as in England, where two persons mutually agree to commit suicide together, and only one dies, the survivor ls held guilty of the murder of the one who died. Some of the greatest Englleh Judges have ruled that such ls the law. Tbe last trial of this kind occurred In the Old Bailey in 1838, when Benjamin Alli? son wai indicted for the wilful murder of I Emma Cripps, A woman with whom he had been living. The two had agreed to commit suicide together, and drank three parts of a cup of laudanum each. The large quantity produced vomiting in the man, and be sur? vived. These facts were proved on the trial, and the man was convicted of murdering the j woman and sentenced to death. '?'lie Crucial Teat. The public eye is now turned to the States in which eleclioBS are to be held in in the early part ot October. The most im? portant are Iowa, Indiana, Ohio and Penn? sylvania, whose elections take place on Oc? tober 8. In the three States last named the fighting is bard, and the result will bave a marked influence upon the Presidential con? test To illustrate bow close a vote may be in a State canvass, and then how large the majority on one side may be in the vote for President, let us look at Indiana. Io 1868, for Governor, the vote stood: Democratic, 170,614; Republican, 171,575; a majority for the latter of 961 only. In November Grant carried the State by 9572 majority. For the j last ten years the vote of the State has been as follows: Rep. Dem. Maj. 1862..Sec Of State..118,617 128,160 9,543 D 1804..Governor.162,084 181,201 20,883 R 1564..President.160,422 180,262 20,189 R I I860..Sec. Of State.. 169,001 166,399 14,202 R 1868. .Governor.. ....171,676 170,614 961 R 1?W8.. President.176,552 169,930 9,672 R 1870..Seo. Of State..167,491 160,059 2,688 D It will he seen that tbe average Republi? can majority has been steadily declining since 1866. There can be hardly a doubt tbat the Liberals this year will carry Indiana almost with ease The changes from the Grant Republicans to the Liberals, both in the Btanding of the mon and their number, I are remarkable. In Ohio the vote is not so close, but Libe j rallsm numbers some of its worthiest disci? ples in Ohio, and Greeley men are bard at j I work.. Looking over tbe political almanacs we find that in past years Ohio hos voted as follows: Rep. Dem. Tem. Maj. 11864..Sec State....237,210 182,439 .... 64,751 R 11866..President....265,164 205,563 .... ?9,686 R 1866..Governor... 223,633 193,697 .... 20,930 R I860..Sec State...268,302 213,606 .... 42 696 R 1867..Governor....243,606 240,622 .... 2,933 R 1868.. Sec. State. ...267,066 249,632 .... 17.883 R | 186?..President....280,128 233,700 .... 41,428 R 1889..Governor....286,099 228,681 .... 7,218 R 1870..Seo.State....221,709 205.045 2,683 16,674 R j 1871..Governor....238,273 218,105 4.034 16,084 R From these figures it will be seen that the n*{*?*t>lfotn /IAAMAS? lr? /~iMr\ n Ino li CK a been steady. Until lately there was no hope of carrying the State for the Liberals, bot de? cided gains should be made in the Congres? sional districts. In Pennsylvania tho Liberal victory is almost certain. The nomination of ex-Gov? ernor Curtin by the Liberals leave the State ? election in no doubt and tbe Grant Repub' Heans can hardly recover from no October defeat by tbe first Tuesday in November. The following table shows the vote of Penn? sylvania since 1864: Rep. Dem Tem. Maj. 1864-...President....269,679 263,967 .... 6,712 R 1866.. AUdlt-Gen'l.. 238,400 215,740 .... 22,660 R 1866..Governor.307,274 29J,090 .... 17,178 Kl 1807..Sup. Court...26?.824 267,746 .... 912 D J 1868..AudlU-Gen'l..331,416 314,739 .... 9,677 R 1868..President....312,280 313,332 .... 28,893 R 1669..Governor.290,652 235,956 .... 6,396 R 1S71..Audit.-Gen'l..2S3,939 ?09,509 3,176 11,316 K Colonel Forney, who is about the shrewd? est politician there is ia this country in tbe matter of eleotion chances, fairly gives up the Grant State ticket as already beaten. The prospect in all these States, which, under the new apportionment cast 66 elec? toral votes, is exceedingly bright Their vote is the more significant and important, be? cause it cannot be figured up or down, or explained away, like the vote in North Caro? lina and Maine. A Liberal victory in Penn? sylvania and Indiana in October will so en courage the party that the election of Greeley ! will be reasonably certain, and a Liberal de? feat in those States will give the Grant party the confidence which ls the forerunner of complete success. The canvass has been vigorous. Money is freely spent by the Ad? ministration party, and the best men on both sides are on the stump. Three weeks will tell the tale. A Paser. Were we asked to point ont tbe apple of gold in the picture of silver which the Hon. R M. T. Hunter presented to the monster assemblage in New York, we should unhesi? tatingly select the following passage : "I will bury all consideration of the ques? tions upon which we may differ, for the Bake of his (Greeley's) aid upon those which I hold to be of transcendant importance. Indeed, I eould make no Issue upon these other ques? tions if I desired lt. Upon them his opponent is as much opposed to me as he ls; but I will not forbear to do the good which I possibly may do because I cannot effect all that I would. Let us secure peace, not pretended, but real, between all the sections and people of this great country, and arrest the rapid progress of the centralization of ali power in the General Governmeut, so as to check the advent of despotism, and we will look after? ward to other and minor causes of division.') One sentence we deem especialy pre? cious : "I wm not forbear lo do Ute good "whick I possibly may do, because I cannot "e?ect all that I would." How vividly this sensible utterance oombats with the absurd I and hurtrul policy o? Mr. Stephens and bis coadjutors. We commend it to the editor or the Atlanta Sun, and respectfully ask him to reply to it Because he cannot do tbe good he would, Mr. Stephens does all the harm he can. Deny it who will, the election of Grant is an evil incomparably greater than would be the election of Gree? ley. Yet this is what Mr. Stephens is doing with ail bis might Is it wise-is it states? manlike-is it friendly to bis people-is it even ordinary humanity? The Mount Vernon Association. The report for 1872 o? the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association, now published, UT? complete answer to the slanderous reports whioh have been circulated by the Northern Radical press against the Regent, Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham. The meeting o? the Grand Council was held on June ll, twentj^^StateSubeing represented. The Council expressed their "warm appreciation of all the regent had "accomplished; of her zeal and devotedness, "and their regrets at the alarming condition "of her health." A committee was appoint" ed to select a resident secretary who "sha!1 "at all times consider the dignity and com? fort of the regent," aud shall "always bear "in mind the deep obligations of the Associ "ation to her." Miss Cunningham present? ed ber linancial report from June, 1870, which shows that the entire receipts of the Association, with the surplus on band in June, 1870, amounted to $14,153 78. The expenses, Including salaries, improvements, repairs, &c., amount to $11,174 43, and Miss Cunningham's personal expenditures, including household charges, expenses of Council Meetings, &c, for the two years, to $1,707 12; making a total outlay of $12,881 55; leaving a balance in band of $1,272 23. The Council say that Miss Cun? ningham 'Jnever desired or received any "compensation for her services-the entire "charge npon the Association, incident to "ber position as Resident Manager for tbe "two years past is embraced in ber item of "personal expenditures, as given above." Miss Cunningham bas been, for many years, the bead and beartof Ibis Association. To ber is chiefly due Hs present position. It was, therefore, especially painful to her and j her friends that reckless letter-writers should have charged ber with selfish motives, and with a disregard of the interests of the Asso? ciation. The charges have already been answered by Miss Cunningham. They are now answered by the Grand Council, who f re intimately acquainted with the affairs 0| tbe Association, and know, better than others can, how mach praise and thank; Miss Cunningham deserves. A Coliseum Cheap. The originators of the Boston jubilee have an elephant on their hands. The great glori .Icallon was probably sweet In tts inception, but ls certainly bitter In Its ending. A desert' ed and barn-like structure-the modern coll' Ben tn stands a monument of reproach. Into Its cavernous depths have gone a couple ol hundred thousand of Bostou's hard-earned dollars, which are lost to Bight, though cer? tainly-judging from the frantic attempt? made to regain them-to memory dear. The Boston people gaze at lt with woe-begone looks. It ls to them an eje-sore, a huge ag gravatlon-a dreary, blank nightmare. The] have tried to retrieve their broken fortunes bj breaking the laws of the Slate and disposing of the unshapely excresence by lottery, but, on laking legal advice, concluded, with true Massachusetts logic, that though the end full} justified the means, yet as the adoption ol the means might get them, and not their neigh bora, into the clutches ol the law, the plat had better be abandoned. Who wants a coll seum cheap and warranted-not to be a bar gain. New Books. TUE BROOKES OF BRIDLEMBRE. Bv G. J. Whyte Melville, author of White Rose, th? Gladiators, <fco. New York : D. Appleton ? Co.
