Examination into the condition of the Union Dime Savings Hank of New York, upon which a heavy run was made recently by alarmed de- •v) si tot's, shows that the institution is solvent, le assets being $8,603,920.99, and the liabili ties $8,235,983.64, leaving a surplus of $368.- 934.45. At Troy, N. Y., two suicides occurred in one day. Charles F. Moore, A real estate broker, shooting himself on account of fear of financial ruin, and Thomas Cornell, a butcher, hanging himself during a fit of despondency. The trial at Wilkesbarre, Pa., of forty mem bers of A vigilante committee, accused of un warrantable firing upon a procession at Scran ton dnring the railroad troubles and causing the death of three men, ended in an acquittal by the Jury. William H. Humphrey, secretary of the New Rochelle Savings Bank, of New Rochelle, N. Y., mysteriously disappeared, and an examination into the bank's affairs showed that many of the depositors had much less sums credited to them tnan they had deposited. For instance, one lady's pass book showed deposits amount ing to $1,000, while the books of the bank had credited her with $100 only. Humphrey was president of the village and justice of the peace, and was held in general esteem. Tiie steamer C. H. Northam, of the New York and Hartford line, lying at the foot of Seventh street, New York, caught fire and was almost totally destroyed. About twelve men were on board the vessel at the time, and all succeeded in making their escape except throe—George Smith, Allen Hogan and George Jackson, all colored—who were burned to death. Tne Northam was worth about $500,000 and was fully insured. At an anction sale of coal in New York one hundred thousand tons were sold and brought considerably lower prices than at a similar sale a month ago. Mr. John Welsh, recently appointed minister to England from the United States, was given a banquet in Philadelphia. David Stillman, a farmer eighty years old, and hia wife, aged about seventy, were found murdered in his house at Sheffield, Mass. Mr. Stillman was found on a lounge, with his head crushed, while his wife was discovered at the foot of the collar stairs with her head cut open. An ax was lying near by and everything was bespattered with blood. The murderer, after committing his bloody deed, had attempt ed to burn the dwelling by starting a fire in the attic with kerosene, but the woodwork was charred onlv. John Ten Eyck, a colored man, was arrested for the murder, several suspicious circumstances leading to the belief that he had committed the crime, the object of which was robbery. Peter B. Sweeny, a prominent member of the Tweed ring, transferred real estate in New York to a widow named Bradley. The property thna made over is valued at a million dollars, and considerable conjecture is aroused as to the motive of the transfer. ‘Western and Sonthern States. The following resolution tvas adopted by the National Grange, in session at Cincinnati : “ The National Grange, representing as it does the agricultural element of every part of the United States, without intending to infringe on any feature of its organic law, which forbids the discussion of any question of party politics, believes it to be not only its privilege but its duty to give expression to the universal voice of its membership in condemnation of all such legislation, either on the part of the general or State government, as t e nds to the injury of the great productive industries. In this spirit, and with no purpose to take part in the partisan politics of the country, wo do hereby declare our disapprobation of the law demonetizing silver, and committing the government arbi trarily to any fixed day in the future for the resumption of specie payment, and do, there fore, hereby express our sympathy with the effort now being made in Congress for the repeal of these obnoxious measures. - ’ The vote on the silver proposition stood 9 to 34 ; that on the anti-resumption, 14 to 30. Both were carried, the West and South voting for and the East against them. About twenty colored people were drowned by the recent heavy flood in the vicinity of Buchanan, Va., while the destruction to all kinds of property was immense, bridges and houses having been swept away and families left without shelter or food. In Richmond the damage done by the flood to private property amounts to between $400,000 and $500,000. On the twenty-seventh the South Carolina Legislature assembled at Columbia.

The special committee appointed by the South Carolina Legislature to examine into the election of United States Senator Patterson, report that about twenty ex-members of the legislature testified that they had been bribed by either Patterson or his agent to vote for his election, the amounts paid ranging from $100 to $2,500. The Second National Bank of Lafayette, Ind., suspended, owing to a defalcation of the cashier, Charles T. Mayo, amounting to $57,000. The destruction to property by the floods in Hardy county, W.

Farms have been swept completely away and hundreds of farmers are ruined The eight and five-year-old children of Eliza Nurse (colored), were burned to death at Sedalia, Mo , during the mother’s absence. The bodies of Capt. Ryan, commander of the wrecked man-of-war Huron, and other officers have been recovered. From Wanhimcton. The ambassador from the island of Samoa, Mr. Lemanea, had an interview with the secre- tary*bf State, and stated that his people pre ferred annexation to this country, but in any event were desirious of arranging a treaty of amity and commerce advantageous to the United States. Dr. Linderman, director of the mint, has submitted his annual report, which shows the operations of the mints for the last fiscal year to have been as follows : Gold bullion received and operated upon, $60,382,502.7<> ; silver bul lion received and operated upon, $97,429,329.93. Total, $97,811,832.00. Deducting redeposits, bars made and issued by one institution and deposited at another, the deposits were : Gold $44,078,199 ; silver, $28,549,935 ; minor. $62,- 165.

Mr. Thurman moved to bv inserting the name of M. O, Butler, of South Carolina. After debate, the amendment was defeated, the vote sUnding 3D to 30, and the Vice-President deciding the question. Mr. Thurman challenged the right of the Vice- President to vote on a question affecting the organization of a body of which he was not a member. After debate the challenge was with drawn.

A Female Convicts of Sing Sing. In accordance with a recent New York State law, which says that female con victs shall be confined only in the peni tentiary, the women who have been in mates in Sing Sing, six hundred and sixty-six in number, were removed to the Crow Hill Penitentiary, in Brooklyn, recently. The women, with their per sonal effects tied np in handkerchiefs and bedquilts, were lodged between decks on the propeller Leader and brought down the Hudson. They were dressed in the blue and white raiment of Sing Sing convicts. Seven of them are serving life-sentences. Jane Brooks was. sentenced in 1853 for killing a man in Allegheny county through jealousy. Ann Barrey was sentenced in 1866 for throwing her child into the river. Lodica Friedenberg was sentenced in 1876. She is an old woman of eighty, who is simple- minded, and who is likely to get a par don before long. She was sentenced for the murder of her sister’s hnsbnnd, v whoso head she chopped off with an ax. i nccted with the office of the assistant attorney- Pollv Fish has been the longest a con- general for this department, and has had much ^ ° i fin xvitn TVioua (JUGStlOnt*, 1,388,709 ..

I think it may also be taken as settled that other printed publications shall pay a higher rate of postage, and I do not recommend any change of either of these rates. The great difficulty is to determine what periodicals are entitled to privileged rates and what are not. The boundary-line between them is by no means distinct nor easily ascertained, and’ the department ft overwhelmed with questions and controversies in regard to it. The fifteenth section of the act of Congress approved July 12, 1876, provides that “transient newspapers and magazines, regular publications, designed pri marily for advertising purposes, * * shall be admitted to and transmitted in the mails at the rate of one cent for every two ounces or frac tional part thereof.'' “Regular publications, designed primarily for advertising purposes,” assume the shape of regular periodicals as completely as may be, so as to avoid the higher rate of postage, if possible, and obtain the ad vantage of the regular newspaper pound rates. It is important to escape these difliculties as well as may be, and hence I have requested Mr. H. Resell, who has for some time been con vict, and has been at Sing Sing for twenty years. She stood in one spot during the whole trip, with lu r hands crossed in front of her, and looking very patient and amiable with her mild face and short gray curls. She killed her child. Mary Johnson, a colored woman, was sentenced in 1865 for the murder of her child, and Emma Oriak, a Polish woman, was sentenced for life in 1875, on account of an aggravated case of ar son. Emma Wimple was sentenced last year for life for the murder of her hus band. She had a lover whom she pre ferred and she would put poison into the husband’s tea. Half of the women smoked, and those unfortunates who were not presented with a cigar, had re course to their clay pipes. All the way down the river there was singing, which was done by the colored woman for the most part. The company were well sup plied with Mr. Saukey’s book,which was all but sung straight through. With the best of behavior and with singular cheerfulness, the women sailed down the Hudson, and at the dock by Hamilton ferry they entered the Black Maria with the same gay good-nature.

A Hint to Duck Raisers. It is well known that the far-famed canvas back duck of the Chesapeake de rives its delicate and peculiar savor from the vallseneria, or wild celery, on which it feeds in those waters. An in telligent agriculturist has turned this knowledge to useful account by cooping and feeding the common domestic duck upon the tops and roots of the garden celery for a week or two before killing •' 'rich is said to greatly improve jivor and altogether destroy the ss which is generally observable _ie barn-yard fowl.

C. Butler, j of Month Carolina, and it was adopted by a vote of 29 to 27, Messrs. Conover and Patterson voting with the Democrats. Mr. Thurman then moved that Mr. Butler be sworn in as Senator, . but the motion went over under objection. ! The Menate then went into executive session and when it adjourned had been in continuous j session for twenty eight hours. The Paris exposition bill was passed with j the committee's amendments, excepting the I one increasing the appropriation from $15 n fuTM, , to $175,000, which was left at the to: as fixed by the House. After a long and protracted debate, a vote was taken at 2 a. m. on the report of the ma- ; jority of the committee in favor of admitting Kellogg. The vote resulted in yeas, 30 ; nays, ' 28. Messrs. Conover and Patterson voted with the Republicans and Mr. Davis with the Demo- crats. This vote seated Sir. Kellogg. Imme diately thereafter a vote was taken upon the credentials of M. C.

Both Senators 1 were at once sworn in. Suggestions About Reading. The long winter evenings are now coming on, and will afford opportunities for reading which all should improve. One of the wisest of American college professors used to tell his students, “ Read—read almost anything; but read. Anything not absolutely corrupt is bet ter than reverie—better than entire stagnation of mind.” Bacon declares that “reading maketh a full man.” There are varieties of intellectual food. The prescription, “ milk for babies and strong meat for men,” applies to mind as well as to body; and so does the other adnee c “What is one man’s poison is another maa'- —«»*. u —— Read, if you are equal to the task, the fow choice books of thought that stimu late and teaeh you to think. It is whole some and bracing for the mind to have its faculties kept on the stretch, as they are by such books. It is lik« climbing a hill. But despise not those who can not climb as high as you can. Let them enjoy other books that convey in struction or communicate power without straining their minds. With a majority of those who are at work during the day, reading is but a recreation in the eve ning. But merely as a recreation it is invaluable. It lifts them oat of their narrow circle of low anxieties and sel fish joys. It quickens their sympathies and expands their views. It ushers them into ideal “ galleries of delight,” which their fancy frescoes with pictures, roughly outlined and crudely colored, perhaps, in comparison with those of your own stately imagination, but none the less vivid and inspiring for them. The Mexican Cactus. A correspondent writes from Mexico : This is truly the land of the cactii. I know not how many varieties I have seen, from the minute plant, that scarcely peeps its diminutive thorn above the soil to the tall pitahaya, which grows to a height of twenty or thirty feet, and then sends forth branches which have the same position as the arms of a candlebra. It has a trunk like a fluted column, and upon the plant there grew clusters of thorns, radiating from a center in every direction, sharp as needles, and as irritating when piercing the skin as the sting of a wasp or bee. Jt is sometimes about two feet in diame ter, and its branches would bear the weight of a man without breaking. The Turk’s head cactus is very common, and attains the size of a flour barrel. Dur- j mg the dry season the wild cattle will ‘ paw off the top of this plant and from : its juicy pulp partially quench their 1 thirst. It bears a brownish yellow flow er which at a little distance resembles the tulip, and has but a very faint odor. I have not found any cactus flower that is very fragrant, nor are they as brilliant 1 in hue as those I have seen in the hot houses of the Eastern States. to do with then6 questions, to investigate and report the best method of carrying out the ex pressed will of Congress in respect to this matter. He has done so ably and faith fully. I indorse his recommendations. He has conferred with some of our ablest : and most experienced postmasters, who , have been almost constantly required to deal with questions arising under this law, : and they approve his plan for perfecting the ! law. His plan is to include publications of all kinds, transient as well as regular, issued from an office of publication, or sent by individuals, in the second-class of mail matter, and to have one rate for matter registered for trans mission through the mails, and another rate for transient and miscellaneous matter. A repeal of section fifteen of the act of July 12, 1876, relative to classification of printed matter and the rates of postage thereon, and the en actment of a statute classing together printed publications of all kinds, whether regular or transient and miscellaneous, the rate for the former to be uniform at two cents per pound, when registered for transmission through the mails ; and for the latter one cent for every two ounces or fraction thereof, as recom mended by Mr. Bissell, will, in my opinion, go very far toward obviating existing difficulties, and better secure'the collection of the postal revenues to which the government is entitled on printed publications. Sheep Browsing above the Clouds. Probably the largest and highest rock in the known world is the South Dome of Yosemite. Standing at the fork of the upper valley, it rears itself, a solid rocky reef, 6,000 feet above the ground. A more powerful hand than that of a Titan has cut away the eastern half, leaving a sheer precipice over a mile in height. No man ever trod the top of this dome until last year. Former visi tors gazed in wonder at the spikes driven into the rock by hardy spirits, who had repeatedly endeavored to scale it. The shreds of rope dangling in the wiud told the story of their failure. Last year| however, after thousands of dollars were spent, several persons found their way to the top of the dome, and this summer two sheep were discovered browsing on the hitherto inaccessible peak. Mrs. A. J. Murphy, wife of a late hotel proprie tor in the valley, writes to a lady in New York as follows: John Anderson is building stairs up to the top of the South Dome. Yon ean go up now by holding on to » bat /it is qqjl,a^*-»rTT , gaTafS trip A few ladies -m-tlRf valley have made the ascent, and I am son-y I did not attempt it. But I am one of the few who have seen the sun rise on the top of Cloud’s Rest, and its glory will never fade from my memory. Strange to say, two sheep found their way to the top of the South Dome this summer, a dam aud her lamb. How they ever got there is more thau any one can tell. They found bunch grass and shoots to eat, but no water—only the dew that fell on the dome at Anderson was going to carry them some water when I left. Business is Business. A reporter on the local edition of the Danbury News went to see the young ady he is keeping company with Sunday evening. She met him at the door with a colorless face. “ Oh, Tom I” she cried in an agitated voice, “we have had such a scare ! Ma was coming down stairs and she caught her foot in the carpet and went the whole length ” “Hold on!” shouted the excited youth, diving nervously into his pocket for his notebook, while he whipped out a pencil from another recess. “Now go on ! go on, Matildia ! go on, but be calm. For heaven’s sake be calm 1 Kill her?” “ Gracious, no!” “ Break her back ? Crush her skull ? Be calm ! For the sake of science, be calm!” “ Why, Tom,” gasped the girl, fright ened by his impetuosity, “It wasn’t serious. It was ” “Wasn’t serious?” he gasr-'d, in turn. “ Do you mean to say she didn’t break anything after all that fuss ?” “Why, certainly not. She never hurt herself a bit.” “Well,” ejaculated the young man with an expression of disgust on his face, as he sadly restored the book and pencil to their places, “that’s all a woman knows abont business.”—Bur lington Uawkeye.

The Influence of Mai nr to Counteracted. That the harmful influence upon the human system of malaria may bo effectually counter acted has been demonstrated for years past by the protection afforded the inhabitants of vast miasma-breeding districts in North and South America, Guatemala, Mexico and the West Indies by Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. Used as a preventive, they have invariably been found to bo a most reliable safeguard against cbills and fever, bilious remittents, and still more malignant types of malarious disease, and when employed as a remedy have always proved their adequacy to the task of eradicat ing such maladies from the system. For dis orders of the stomach, liver and bowels, which in hot climates and miasmatic localities are par ticularly rife, the Bitters are a prompt and thorough remedy. They also strengthen the system, tranquilize the nerves, promote diges tion and sound sleep, and impart unwonted relish for food. CHEW The Celebrated “ Matchless” Wood Tag Ping Tobacco.

It is, of course, principally employed for the snaring of birds and animals. By its means animals as large as monkeys are caught. When once they get the stuff on their paws they soon cover themselves with it, and so exhaust themselves in trying to get rid of it that they fall an easy prey. Birds also as large as ducks and every variety of smaller ones are token by it. Rats are easily caught by spreading a small quantity on a piece of board or paper, and placing it near their holes. It is spread upon a bamboo leaf, and used during the summer for catching flies or other insects. Flea traps are made for its service, aud occasionally used by the Japanese in bod. Birdlime is also used by the Japanese for medicinal purposes, aud is considered one of the best cures bar wounds. Japan is the only country where it is regularly manufactured on a large scale, the principal tree from which it is made being a dark evergreen from the moun tains in the south. from Duff's Broad- ’ork city, are playing to a succession of crowded houses in New York State and Canada.

Mr. Morrison made a speech on the currency question, in which ho said the anti-resumption act was an evasion of the demands of the West. ards, which was bud economy, and directing xmtinne all Shelley, but e secretary of the navy to discontinue all i* m such repairs, was offered by Mr, went over under an objection. Mr. Wadleigh presented the report of the committee on privileges and elections in fa' _ _ r | from money-order business a’ndfrom official stamps, 27,468,323,42; leaving ai> excess of expendi tures over receipts of $4.f ; 4,180,82. Toe expenditures durii^he fiscal yt lore than thro of the pre 13,483.55 lessthan the Monkeys’ Tricks at an Aquarium. The other day, after the visitors had retired from the New Y»rk Aquarium, a sportive monkey known by the name of 1 Sullivan ” was allowed the freedom of the building, when, after duly inspect ing the fishes in the various tanks, he sought a higher field of operations. He ran up one of the pillars and amused himself by hanging head downward. This did not seem to satisfy his desire for fun, ns with a sudden spring he bounded upon a statue of Venus which stood upon a shelf above the seal tank, when his weight toppled it over, and “Sullivan” and Venus arrived in the seal tank together. Venus, unfortu nately, fell upon Ned, one of the trained seals, fracturing his skull and sealing his fate for all time. “Sullivan” was captured and returned to his cage un hurt. There are those indeed, whom the world calls vain, who are not so. There is a desire in some men to have their real characters known, and therefore they speak for themselves, and with more than with perfect justice. Vanity and a spirt so sensitive as to fear lest merit or good feelings should be neg lected, are two different things. Skimmed.... Western*. •• State and Pennsylvania. BUFFALO. Flour.
