WASHINGTON, May 29.—The following mes- sage of the President was delivered to the House of Representatives to-day: To the House of Representatives: Sirns—After mature consideration of the bill entitled, ‘‘An act making appropriations for the legislative, executive and judicial expenses of the Government for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1880, and for other purposes, I here- with return it to the House of Representatives, in which it originated, with the following ob- jections to its approval: The main purpose of the bill is to appropriate money required tosupport during the next fiscal year the several civil departinents of the Governinent. The amount appropriated ex- ceeds in the aggregate $18,000,000. This money is needed to keep in operation the es- sential functions of allthe great departments ofthe Government, legislative, executive and judiciai. If the bill contained no other provisions, no objection to its approval Would ba made. It embraces, however, @ number of clauses re- lating to subjects of great general interest, which are wholly unconneeteft with the appro- priation which it provides foy. Objections to the practice of tacking general legislation to appropriation) bills, especially when the object is ‘to depyive & co-ordinate branch of the Government of its rightsto the free exercise of its discretion and judgment touching such general legislation, were set in the special message in relation to House bill No. 1 which was returned to the House of Representatives ou the 23th of jJast month. I regret that the objections which were then expressed tothis method of legislation have not seemed to Congress of sufficient weight to dissuade from this renewed incorporation ot general enactmentsin an appropriation bill, und that my constitutional duty in respect to the general legislation thus placed Lefore me ecunnot be discharged without sceming to delay, however briefly, the neces- sary appropriation by Congress for the support of the Government. Without repeating those objections, I respectfully refer to that mes- save for a statement of my views on the principle maintained in debate by the advoeca’es of this bill, viz.: that, **to with- hold appropriations is a constitutional means for the redress’’ of what the majority of the House otf Representatives may regqurd as a ‘forievancc.’’ The bill contains the following And provfred further, thatthe following sec- tions of the Revised Statutes of the United States, namely, sections 2016, 2018 and 2u2u, end all of the succeeding sections of said stututes down to and including see- tion ,. 2027, und ulso Section 5522, be and the same are repealed, amd that aii the other sections ofthe Revised Statutes and all jaws and parts of laws authorizing the ap pointment of chief supervisors of elections. clauses, viz.

It also contains elauses amending sections 2017, 2019, 2028, and 2031. of the Revised Statutes. The seetions otf Revised Statutes which the bill, if auproved, would repeal or amend, are part ofanact approved May 30, 1870, and amended February 23s, 1871, entitled ‘*An act to entorce the rights of citizens of the United States to vote in the severul States ot this Union, and tor other pur- poses.’’ All of the provisionsfotthe above- named ucts, which it is proposed in this bill to repeal or modifs, relate TO CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS. Theremaining portion of the law which willcon- tinue in force after the enactment of this meas- ure isthat which provides for the appointment, by a Judge of the Cireuit Court of the United States, of two Super- visors of Eiections in cach election district at any Congressional election, on due application of citizens who desire, in the lan- guage of the law, ‘‘to have such election guarded and = scrutinized.’’ The duties of supervisors will be to attend at the polls at all Congressional elections, and to remain after the pol's are open until every vote cast has been counted, but they will have no authority to make arrests or to perform other duties than to be in the immediate presence ot the officers holding elections, and TO WITNESS ALL THEIR PROCEEDINGS, including the counting of votes and making a return thereof. The part of the election law which will be repealed by the approval of this bill includes those sections which give authority to the Supervisors of Elections to personally scrutinize, count! and canvass each ballot, and all the section3 which confer authority upon United States Marshals and Deputy Mar- shals in connection with Congressional elections. The enactment of this bill will also repeal section ~5522 of the criminal statutes of the Unfted States, which was enacted forthe pro- tection of United States officers in the discharge ot their duties at Congressional elections. This section protects supervisors and tmarshals in the performance of their duties by making the obstruction, or assaulting of these officers, or any interference with them by bribery, or so- licitation, or otherwise crimes against the United States. Thetrue meaning and effect of the proposed legislation are plain. SUPERVISORS with authority to observe and witness the pro- ceedings at [Congressional elections wili be left; but there will be no power to protect them or to prevent interference with their du- ties,orto punish any violation of law from which their powers are derived. This biil, it approved only the shadow of the authority of the United States at national elections will re- main. at lowinz the THE SUBSTANCE WILL BE GONE. Supervision of elections will be reduced to mere inspection without authority on the part of the supervisors to do any act whatever to make the election a fair one. Ali that will be leit to the supervisors is permission to have such oversight of elections as political parties are inthe habit of exercising without any authority of law, in order to prevent their opponents trom obtaining any untair advant- ages. The objectof the billisto destroy any control whatever by the United States over Congressional) elections. The passage of this bill has been urged upon the ground that the eiection of members of Congress is a matter which concerns the State alone ; that these elections shou!d be controiled exclusively by the States; that there are and can be no gnch elections as national elections; and thatthe xisting law of the United States regulating C&~eressional elections is without warrant in the Constitution. It is evidout, however, that THE FRAMERS OF THE CONSTITUTION regaidcd the election of members of Congress in every State andin every district as in a very important sense justly a matter of political in- terest and concern to the whole country. The original provision ot the Constitution on this subject is as follows: ‘Section 4, article 1. The times, places and manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives shall be pre- scribed in each State by the Legislature there- of, but Congress may ut any time,by law,make or alter such regulations except as to places uf choosing Senators.’’ A further provision has been since added, which is embraced in the Fifteenth Amend- ment. Itis as follows: Section 1. ‘‘The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servi- tude.’’ Sec. 2. ‘*The Congress shall have power to eniorce this article by appropriate legisla- tion.’’ Under the general provision of tne Con- stitution, section 4, article 1, Congress in 1866 assed a comprebensive iaw which prescribed a tull and detailed regulation for the election of Senators for the Legislatures of the several States. THIS LAW bas beenin force almost thirteen years. In puisuance of it all of the members of the pres- ent Senate of the United States hold their seats. its constitutionality is not culled in queqtion. Itis confidently believed that no sougd argument can be mude in upport of the constitutionality of the national Fee tiation of Senatorial elections which will not show that the elections of members of the : e of Representati may be consti- tutiona? ; oval anthority. The bill’ sognizes the prin- »lo that tions are\not ~ i eo ey he J + J AY 29, 1879. supervise, inany respect whatever, the Con- gressional elections exists under Section 4 Ar- ticle 1,of the Constitution, it is a power which like every other power belonging to the Government of the United States is PARAMOUNT and supreme, and includes the right to employ the necessury means to vem | it into effect. The statutes of the United States which regu- late the election of members of the House of Hepresentatives, an essential part of which it 1s proposed to repeal by this bill, have been in force about eight years. Four Congressivgal elections have been held under them, two of which were ast the Presidential elections of 18/2 and 1876. Numerous prosecutions, trials and convic- tions have been held in courts ot the United States in a)l parts of the Union for violations of these laws. In no reported cause has their constitutionality ~ been called in question by any judge of the courts of the United States, The validity of these itaws is sustained by a untform course of judici: l ac- tion and opinion. If it is urged that the United States election laws AKE NOT NECESSARY an ample replyis turnished by the history of their origin and of their results. They were es- pecially prompted by tne investigation and ex- posure ot frauds committed in the city and State of New York at the elections of 1878. Committees representing both of the lead- ing political parties of the country have sub- mitted reports to the House of Representatives on the extentof those frauds. A committee of the Fortieth Congress aiter a fuil investigation reaches the conclusion that the number of fraudulent votes cuastinthe city of New York alone im ’68 was not less than 25,000. A committee of the 44th Congressin their report submitted in ‘77 adopted the opinion that for every one hundred actual voters ot the city of New york in 1868 one hundred and eight votes were cast, when, in fact, tne number of lawful votes cast could not have exceeded eighty- eight per, cent of the actual votes of the eity. By this statement THE NUMBER OF FRAUDULENT VOTES at that electionin the city of New York alone was between thirty and forty thousand. These frauds completely reversed the resalt of the election in the State of New York both as to the choice of Governor and State oflicers and ‘as to the choice oi electors ot the President and Vice-President of the United States. Thev attracted the attention of the whole country.It wus plain that it they could be continued and repeated with impunity, free government was impossible, A distinguished Senator, in opposing the passage of the election laws, u«eciared he had for ft long time believed that our form of Government was comparatively orderly and honest. Even the opponents ot these laws have borne testimony to their value and eflicacy, and to the neceasity for their en- actment. A committee of the 44tn Congress, composed of members a majority of whom were oppesed to these laws, in their report on the New York clection of ’76, sasd: The com- mittee would commend to other portions ofthe country andto other citics this remarkable systein developed through the agency of both local and Federal authorities, acting in har- mony for an honest purpose. In no portion of the world and in no era of time, where there has been an expression of the popular will through the forms oflaw. Has there becn a more compiete and thorough illustration of republican insti- tutions?

Her sandal-slippered foot showed dead- wold hose beneath; her head crowned with waves of Titian- colored hair, just flecked with gold: blue eves, and a full, well-shaped mouth, make her a fitting ‘‘subject’’ for the crimson- paneled drawing- -room.

Acard sentup bya bell- boy, with plenty of leg taient, brought back the hospitable response ‘‘come up,’’ and the POSsT-DISPATCH reporter found himself in the presence of a decidedly Eastern-looking gen- tleman, with a full face, red side- whiskers, fair complexion, a round fully developed head, quick and active in his movements, whose whole figure and face was indicative of restless energy. Mr. Comstock said that he had come onto St. Louis to attend the annual meeting of the St. Louis branch of § the Western Society for the Suppression of Vice, which is to take place this evening at the Union M. E. Church, corner of Eleventh and Locust. ‘*‘Where do you come from just now, Mr. Comstock ?’’ ‘*Well, sir, during the past six months I have been through the New England and Middle States, tracing out parties complained of, or those om we had occasion to suspect of being engeged in tnis unlawful business of disseminating obscene literature. Wherever opportunity has offered I have been presenting facts tothe public bear- ing on this business, trying to reach the good men in the community and urging thom to see the necessity otf combined and organized action against this class of people. A week ago iast night I had an opportunity of addressing the General Assembly at Saratoga, andthe weck before that I* was beiore the Methodist Conference tor New York. The idea presented in each instance was that all around us men were secretly circulating literature which was calculated and designed to corrupt,the morals and depauch the minds ofthe young, andto endeavor to put parents, teachers and >? iy on their guard.’’ ‘*[ suppose the public have noidea of the ex- tent to whicib the trafiic is carried on?’’ ‘*T hardly think they have. Ne one can have except from a practical experience and constant watching such a3 I nave kept up forthe last six years. When I commenced, the &mount of capital invested in the business amounted to hundreds of thou- sands of dollars. Of the 165 aifferent books published in this country at the time I com- menced operations as accent of the society, I have seized the plates tor printing anda illustrating 163 of them, and 1 have the best of evidence that the other two have also been destroyei1. I have seized something like 1,700 negatives for printing photographs,§which have also $veen destroyed; also about stecl and copper plate engravings and about 500 wood and elec- tro plates. The matter seized, through the efforts of the society, trom the commencement down to the prescnt time, will reach, in round alumbers, twenty-four tons. From one party alone I seized what cost him about $24,000, consisting of 180 steel and copper plate engravings and stercotype plates for printing twenty five dif- ferent books. It was estimated by printers that the steel and copper plate engravings alone cost not less than $18,000 or $20,000. Ire- ceived $16,000 worth of stuff at the hands of another named Ackerman at one time. His backerand friend,a man named Timsonr, was reported to have made $30,000 to $40,- 000 im the same business. He claimed to be erveespectaplie and moved in good society, p of the ast%firban cities around New I? p, 350 ‘*Where was the business conducted:'’ “AH over’ the United o»states. The headquarters were principally in New York city.The police of New York were per- fectly aware of the business but thev were al- lowed to go onin their infamous business. for years, without molestation. One man who published some ofthe filthiest books ever seen lad been carrying on his business since 1842; could trace iit that far back on his books. A _ detective, one of the headquarters. detectives, received $600 from him, Anda certain prominent criminal lawyer nade Aim pay it back. That man—the publisher, I mean—never was arrested, and yet he did more than any other two men put together in this business. He conducted it so secretly that it was extremely difficult to bring it to a stop. He used to have his printing done in Brooklyn; the ietter press was taken across to New York, where it was bound; then another confidential man took the books over to Jersey City, where they were stored in a room he had inthe Atlantic Hotel. All these precautionary measures were taken so that if we succecded in getting the plates we wouldn't get the letter press or stock in the hauds ol the binder. if we seized that we would not get the plates nor: the bound stock. I finally got the plates, 200,000 books, a@ quarter of a ton oft letter press, and $7,000 werth of bound books in Jersey City. His name was Haynes. I also seized the stock of a man named Farrell, amounting to four tons, and got six tons of stercotype plates from his printer,all of which have been destroyed. His printer was a man named Holman, who laid claims to the very highest respectability, to a reputation for sanctity, infact. Ina book shelf in his store he usa to kecp Spurgeon’s sermons and a lot of tracts written by himself. Above the tracts were the words ‘‘Free, pleasc take one.’’ And on the other side ot a board partition was the printing press yet wet with the ink witu which had been pringed 10,000 of these vile, unlawiul books.’’ ‘*Where do these books and engravings come jrom?’’ ‘*Nearly all the matter that has been seized is Of American production. This man Havnes ispoke of used to import a great deal from (ireat Britain, Isent over the name of one nan with whom he dealt to the London Soci- ety iorthe Suppression of Vice, and in less than amonth they wrote back that they had him under thirteen indictments.’’ ‘*How have you succeeded in yoR prosecu- tions thus far?’’ ‘*About four per cent of the cases that have becn tried have failed to result in a conviction. Ninety-six per cent have been convicted, or pleaded guilty, which is the same thing. There me some seventy cases in the city of New York that have not been tried, in which there is ample evidence to convict, but which have been laid over from time totime through the negligence, or worse, of the District Attornev’s oftice. I mean the State District Attorney, Mr. Pbelps Justice Cowan, of the Court of General Sessions, said the other day, that owing to the frequent prac- tice of giving straw bond, to leta man out on bond amounted practically toputting an end to the case, and he does not intend that that should be so in this court.’’ ‘*Where does this literature go?’’ ‘*Very largely into schools and seminaries from one endof the country tothe other. The names and address of youths. male and fe- maie, and of others, are bought by these deal- ers, who send out to them their circulars and advertisements, and one colleciion of names frequcntly serves several dealers. I found a list of 200,- 000 or 300,000 hames the other day in Boston, which had been originally collected by a dealer in Chicago, who had used them and sold the list to aman in Ashland, Mass., who bad resold them to the Boston man. Catalogues ot schools and seminaries are collected and circulars sent to the various stu- denis. One concern here in St.Louis we found had sent out circulars, describing oO diabolical instrument, to at least two female seminaries—one in Iowa and one in Iilinois. The.man skipped before we caught him, but I haven't got through looking for him yet. I don’t drop men so quick. One man who had been in business originally in New York was caught after he bad fled to Connecticut, thence to Montreal, thence to Detroit, thence to Chicago, thence to St. lois, thence to Memphis, thence to New Or- leans, and finally brought back after two years to Connecticut, where an indictment ad been found against him. The man Farrell cleared out from New York after a bench warrant had been got- ten out for him, and went south, where he died beifore the end of two weeks.’’ ‘*Yon don’t meanto say that the business has been entirely broken up?’’ ‘*No; [meanto say thatthe price of moral purity iseternal vigilance on tke part of pa- rents, teacheisand the authorities. There is no home fm the land, however sacred, but is in danger from this curse.’' Speaking of Judge Treat's decisionin a re- cent case Brought before the U. 8S. District Court here, Mr. Comstock said: ‘'There is but one way underthe law of entorcing it, and Judge Treat rules that we can’t enforce it that way. His ruling is in opposition to hundreds of decisions in cases thathave been tried, as it o in opposition to common sense and ab- sura. . A SPLENDID SALE OF SECURITIES.

Tried in the Various Criminal Courts To-Day. Cases — ——>— — Police Proceedings—Sanders Murder Trial— Arrests—Warrants. The Two Ellens. Elien Shelly is a Hibernian lady who occu.- pies quartersin the rear of No. 2317 South Seventh street. Ellen Kennedy is a'country- woman of the lady Shelly, and has tor many days occupied apartménts in the above men- tioned premises. Yesterday both came prowl- ing around the Four Courts hunting for ven- veance. The Shelly woman had a ponderous looking carving knife in her hand, and a terri- ble gash) over her good right eye. She averred thatthe latter bad been presented to her by the lady Kennedy with the aid of the carving knife which she now heldinher possession. My tady Kennedy told quite a different story. She was much the most abused person of the two. Shelly had tried to take ber life’s blood, and to’ save that to her valuable fluid she had hit her a crack over the éye. Now Prosecuting Attorney Dierkes, who was listening to this story, wondered which of thetwo had began the fight. Before he had ccased wondering the Shelly woman enlightened him upon the sub- ject. Herhusband had died fourteen years ago. Yesterday hennedy in speaking of Shel- ly’s late deceased purtner said she rememvber- edthe way the poor man suffered wid sore eyes. hadn't sore eyes,’’ said Shelly. but I know he had,’’ Kennedy. From Q's they caine to blows. This was what began the row. This wus aclincher torthe young prosecutor. As he had never seen my lady shelly’s deceas- ed husband, he could not tell which wasin the right or which inthe wrong; so be ordered the two Ellens outof his office, advising them to settic the pointin question between them. selves. They ieft, andasthetwo walked side by side out ofthe court corridors, the words ‘the had,’’ ‘‘hehadn’t,’’ could be distinctly heard, andit may be prophesied that betore the sore eye question is setticd more blood will be spilled, the Lew Munsick’s Case. Joel L. Musick,better known as{ Lew Musick, appeared betore Judge Cady to-day charged with the grand larceny ofa horse from Selma Watson. Musick is the man who has figured in sOmany shooting affrays of late. Several charges of assault to kill are now entered on the docket in the Court of Criminal Correction against him. Prosecuting Attorney Hogan to- duy nolle pros’ed the grand lar- ceny case fo. the reason that Musick took possession of the horse under color of authority, and although he acted out- rageously and may be atrespusser the charge oft grand larceny according tothe stock law could not be sustained. Mr. Hogan Will, how- ever, vigorously prosecute the other criminal charges pending against Musick. Keep Your Eye on Ink Peddlers. Fred. Sickles used to peddle ink around town, but to-day his occupationis gone, and ho lies in the crib waiting for the Maria to come along, which is to take him down to the Work-house. Fred, while seliing his wares on the Queen’s birthday, called at the house of Jacob Loesch, at No. 2906 Carondelet avenue. When Fred opened the front door ofthe Loesch mansi>n,he found the occupants out, and saw a gold watch lying on the table. Fred, fearing that some one might steal it, picked it up, intending, as neavers, to return it to the owner. Judge Cady could swallow no such story as this, and sent Fred down tothe rocks for a six months’ term). Unhappy Valentine. Valentine Ritter, lives at No. 927 North Fourteenth street.

The Iron Mountain Railway Company was fined $100 for obstructing the streets. Mary Rooney, for induiging in alargé amount of swearing, was assessed the costs. Second District Police Court. Twenty-two cases tried in this court to-day. The following named ladies and gentiemen were found just where they should not be, i. e., on other people’s property, and were as- sessed $10 each, not being able to account for themselves: Mary Jane Tolvert, Wm. Mont- gomery, Thomas Martin, Patrick Dillon, Jno. Dougherty, Peter Smith and Thomas Grady. Lizzie Lonergan, Jane Wilson and Mollie Luby, three disorderly women, were assessed heavy fines each. Mojlie Maguire, drunk on the street, $3. Mary Kimbell, same, $10. Henry Ellis, an idler, was assessed $15. Jno. Mack disturbed the peace $10 worth. Collections $32. #10 Certificates. The sale of $10 certificates was concluded long before noon to-day, $120,000 worth being disposed of, which comprised the amount for sale in this city. At the Sub-Treas- ury $30,000 worth sold, and the remainder in equal shares at the Post-office and Custom- house. The crowd was not quite so large this morning as usual, owing to a belief having gained ground that yesterday was tho last day. It is thought by the officials in charge that no more will be offered for sale in thisor any of the Western cities tor some weeks at least. Legal Notes. Law docket in No. 4 to-day.

Does not ‘‘All property shall be assess- ed in proportion to its value’’ mean. di- rect taxution? If so, who is to be blamed thai about one-half of all the real estate is taxed four times higher than it ought to be? Is the system the cause that the president of the Board of Assessors and his assistants could only find eighteen hundred thousand dollars ($1,800,000) cash, of which the largest partis owned by the widows and orphans, notwithstanging that the yearly City and county taxes amount to.$ The fire and life insurance premi- UMS TO OVEL....ccceees o- 606s 60 Seee The United States taxes to over..

For ahaains By the great fire in city block 77 were dam- aged the buildings fronting 74 f-c. on North Fifth street by 160 feet on St. Charles street, which were asse sed at *36,000, and insured for $110,000; the cash value sworn to by the Assessor is only one-third (1-3) of the insured value. The assessed value of the buildings and the lot is $124,140, The rental value is insured to the amount of $24,000, or 20 per cent of the assessed value. How many citizens in St. Louis are the for- tunate owners of property yielding 20 per cent, or, after deducting taxes, insurance and other expenses, 16 per cent net interest per annum ? Of personal property Mr. J. M. Randall had stored in the building some furniture which was insured at $5,000, but not found by the Assessor, and therefore does not appear in the Assessor’s books. The mercbandise in the corner building Mo. 500 and 502 Washington avenue was insured for the sum of $&5,000, the fixtures at $3,- 000. 5 - The merchandise in the next house, where the fire was discoverd, was insured: Hamilton & Co., on first floor......... $ Mack & Co., on second floor ...

They correspond with the cash value sworn to and returned by the owners to the Collector’ Of course they do! Whoever will not believe this assertion can judge for himself. The books in the Col- lector’s office are open for inspection. The discrepancies of the assessed cash value and the insured cash value of merchandise do not amountto much. ©O no! But the results caused by them are so dangerous and demor- alizing that the honest merchants are trying to have the cash value standard of the insur- ance companies adopted for revenue pur- poses. The northwest corner of the same block, 53 | feet on Fifth street by 42 feet on Washington | avenue, is owned by Sidney H. Lackey. The corner house. 424 Washington avenue, was in- sured at $4,000: the next, 422 Washington avenue, at $3.000: making the total $7,000, and are assessed at $2,500, The proportion of the assessed value to the insured value is again! : 3.

Mae Sy An Industry for Country Children. A plan by which young persons residing in the neighborhood of great cities, or anywhere else, for that matter, where the mulberry-tree will grow, can, with easy, clean and pleasant work, make from $10 to $25 during sum- mer, ought to’ meet with large acceptance. There is a market for the cocoons at about seventy-fite cents per pound, and the eggs of the worms can be procured without trouble. Placed near to a stove, the worms appear from the eggs im a few days, and soor begin to feed. The worms are hardy, but need pure air, and must be kept dry and warm. -ocoons raised near Germantown were shipped to Italy, whence it was reported that they were ‘‘ex- al ies obane per 1G PG. ai} the p! aay ae eed ‘aff. Crawshay gave Living on Wind for Pive share {nthe works—a 7 BSe yn was more easily manag now, when money 1s con- sidered more #2n brains—to extend over a period. Whe George went out, some dozen years afterward, in a dition to salary, he re- ceived his shere of 9600,000 profits. Mr. Crawshay t in other partners at various times, and at his death the disposition of the Cyfarthfa Works was three-eighthsto Ben- amin~ Hall, two-eighths to Joseph Bailey. ichard Crawshay died worth £1,500,000, a fortune far short of that made by his nephew, who, beside s€yfarthfa intcrests, had vast iron propet in Monmouthshire. When Richard Cr hay died, Hall and Bailey re- tired, andth ‘orks came into the possession of William € wWshay, who, with Sir Joseph Bailey, had pr. tically managed them for sev- eral years. Under this new iron king; who had a genius for invention, Cyfarthfa advanced with gigan- tic strides. In 1819 it numbered six blast fur- naces, and in that year produced 11,000 tons of pig-iron and 612,000 tons of bars. In 1821 it turned out more of these manufactures than the three Kingdoms put together had done be- tween the years 1740 and 1750, and fully balf the total yield of all Great Britain so late as 1788. From 1817 to 1840, the Glanmorganshire Canal, which was the first Crawshay had start- ed, carried from Cyfarthfa 613, 144 tons of pud- dled iron. The most important of the rolling- mills was erected tm 1846, designed by William Williams. Attached were 18 boiling furnaces, and 20 puddling furnaces, which in March, 1847, turned. out 6,144 tons of rails, and in the same month the largest bar of iron pos- sibly ever made. It measured 27 feet long and 6 1-2 in diameter,and weighed 2,941 tons. In his old age, William Crawshay retired to his seat at Caversham Park, near Reading, on the Thames, having, however, built Cyfarth- fa Castle, a magnificent residence, near the works. He left his son, Robert, in charge, and dying in 1867 bequeathed him all his property, which, besides other valuables in lands and gold, included Cyfarthfa, with its 11 furnaces—7 at Cyfarthfa proper and 4 at Ynysfach—7 iron stone-pits, and 8 coal-pits. The estimated fortune of William Crawshay was £35,000,000. Ofthe conl won but un- worked onthis splendid estate the possible yield is 2,500 tons per day, the late Robert Crawshay being content to work it at less than 980. Merthyr Tydfil, where the works are located, as I have said before, has grown froma village to a town. In 1831 the population had risen to 22,083; in 1841, to 34,977; in 1851, to 46,578, and in 1871, to 06,891, which, however, takes in the parish of Aberdare and the hamlet of Caed-y-Cym- ner. It returns two members to Parliament. In 1873, when the ‘*company’’ mania was waning, an enterprising ‘‘promoter,’’ who is now in America, entered into preliminary firrangements to buy the Cyfarthfa Works, and launch the scheme under the Joint Stock act. A syndicate was said to have been formed for the purchase, and along with ita bituminous colliery of 1,000 acres in the same locality. Mr.Robert Crawshay was quite willing to sell, since he could no longer work in harmony with modern ideas of the rights of labor, and a sum was fixed at which the works could be bought. The scheme. however, fell through, owing to the failure of another gi- gantic effort of the same financier, who had worked, almost to completion,the magnificent notion of the resurrection of South Carolina under a joint stock company. with directors | on both sides of the Atlantic.

The animal! had erept in under the floor of a house built on slopine ~ ground, and when the foundation was fimally closed in piggy must have been wrapped in a profound slumber, in a comfortable bed of shavings which filled wp partially the empty space. The house was not finished, and remained unoccupied dur- ing the winter, hence the noise made by the prisoner on awakening, and his strugles to get out, were unheard. Finding bimself in durance vile, the pig, like atrue philosopher, aceommodated him- self to eircumstances, and wisely determined bot to fight against the inevitable. He wrapped himself in the sbavings and went to sleep for the winter. His mysterious disap- pearunce was commented on, but it was sup- posed he had lost his way in the woods, being of a roving disposition. He was a plump animal and a eredit to his owner, who intend- edtoturn him into bacon about Christmas, and it was fortunate for himself that he car- ried a viaticum in his own fat on which he subsisted during the winter. The house was elosed in on the 22d of November, 1878, and on that day piggy was ‘‘lost to sight.’’ A\{ll through the following four months he slept peacefully, perfeetly indifferent regarding the Afghanistan eampaign and the Isandula dis- aster. But with the warmth of April suns his en- ergies returned; he rubbed his eyes and turn- ed over, Managing to utter some feeble grunts. By this time the house was oceupied, and the inhabitants were amazed at hearing these mysterious noises underneath the floor oftheir kitchen. Piggy began to feel the pangs of hunger after his long fast, and his grunts for release beeame more imperative. An opening was made and poor piggy at length staggered forth ‘‘the chost of his form- er self’’—a walking skeleton. His condition drew tears from the eyes of the woman who owned him, who only knew him by a pe- | culiar turn in his tail, which survived the de- struction of all his tissues. Her joy over the resurrection of the lost pet was touching. The news spread rapidly. The miners gather- ed from all quarters to view the wonderful pig who had lived 142 days without meat or drink. One of them more book-learned than tne rest remarked that ‘‘it reminded him of the seven sleepers of Ephesus,’’ but bis observa- tion was profanely scoffed at by the others, as it was feltto be an unwarrantable attempt to disparage the performance of their wonderful } pig, of which they bad all reason to be proud. | Piggy’s fortune was made. Presents flowed inupon him. Delicacies unheard of in the dietary of pighood were liberally supplied to nourish him in his invalid condition. Warm compounds of oatmeal and biscuit, flavored with delicious scraps and tid-bits from kindly housewives, soon begantotellon his condi- | tion and to swell out hislean flanks. Hisstory went the rounds of the mines, and every where awoke sympathy and enthusiasm. Whether he will be sent on for exhibition in St. John’s I cannot say, but there can be no doubt that an enterprising showman would find ita paying speculation.

His accomplished wife, author of ‘‘Lady Helps,’’ and a social re- er, closed his eyes at Cheltenham on urday. The deceased gentleman had been vying there for the benefit of his health. He fee been ‘‘stone deaf’’ for years. He died from an attack of bronchitis. When tbe last great strike inthe iron and wool trades of South Wales took place, he closed his works, and they have only been partially reopened since. I happened to be a visitor at Cyfarthfa Castle during the trouble. Crawshay vowed he would never give way to dictation; he would rather close his furnaces forever; he could afford it. I don’t know’ what his possessions were, but he _ had the reputation of being a millionaire angW here between £5,000,000 end £10,000,000. [I talked to him by means of a pencil and pa- per. He would notlearn the dumb alphabet. Some people thought him morose. I fuund piman agreeable, amiable gentleman. His hobbies were horticulture, photography, and music. His castle overlooked the valley near his vast iron works. His gardens and his studio were together. Inthe former he grew the finest fruits and flowers in Wales. Inthe latter he took or printed the best pictures in England. Some of his landscape photographs ¢xhibited at the London exhibitions were voted superb by critical judges. The best and most natural hkeness I havein my album— always excepting those New York portraits— are by the late Robert Crawshay. The most luscious peaches I ever ate were grown m bis houses. He could not hear a sound, he told me, even when a drum was beaten in his ear, but he main- tained a brass band that won allthe Crystal Palace money prizes, in competition with all ihe bands large premiums could bring to- gether. It was formed among his workmen, and was the delight of Merthyr Tydfil, a town which, under tbe Crawshay influence, grew from a village to a population of 100,000. When he and Mrs. Crawshay went to visit«a Jocal watering-place in the summer, the band youid go along and play daily for the amuse- nent of these ‘‘cities by the sea’’ which had the good fortune to attract the Crawshays. Abertyswith was one of these places, and Mr. mawshay showed me quite a collection of the Bebbies he had picked up onthe beach there and had polished and set. There was a genial, child-like simplicity in this strong-headed man’s tastes and pleasures. He wasa rare fisherman. and had a lovely little box on the River Usk, which he presented tohis wife over breakfast a few months ago, be- fore he was takenill. Inhis hall at Cyfarthfa Castle are many preserved eWamples of his argling victories, with their weights, and particulars of their capture. The Little Taff, a trout stream, runs by the castic,and,though face to face with iron furnaces and din of hammers, the scenery is beautiful and ro- mantic. When Iwas there enjoying the iron monarch’s hospitality, he employed at his iron and coal works about 5,000 men, and, in all, families numbering 20,000 were dependent on him for their daily bread. Though the man- agers came tothe castle daily with the letters, for consultation and advice, he did not appear to take an active partin the management.

On May 5th, says the Norwich Bulletin, we noticed the fact that a Brahma ben belonging to Mr. H. R. Gardner, of Bean Hill, had laid and egg measuring 6 7-8 inches reund and 8 1-4 inches in oval circumference. Subsequent to that date the egg was pierced by Mr. George S. Ford, atthe end, to be blown, that the shell might be preserved, when it was discoy- ered that there was enclosed within the outer shell a seeond egg, two-thirds as large as the first, with a shell much harder. That was also punctured and the contents drawn, which showed it to be a perfect egg. The outside egg contained no yolk, holding only the albu- men in whieh the inner egg was enclosed.

[From the New York World] One of the strangest and most remarkable cures that the people of Petersburg, Va., have ever witnessed was that which took place at a colored baptizing in that city on Sunday after- noon. During the evening fifty-four candi- dates were immersed, one of whom was a deaf and dumb mute named Burwell Lancaster, about twenty-one years of age, who is quite highly educated, having received his school- ing at the college for the deaf and dumb in Providence. R. I. After being baptized by the officiating minister, Rev. Henry Williams, pastor of the Gilfield Baptist Church in that city, the mute returned from the water cured of his infirmities and gave vent to his feelings bya lusty shout of ‘Thank God,’’ when he was again taken deafand dumb. To say that the spectators were considerably amazed would but feebly express it, and no little consternation was occasioned among the larze crowd atthe miraculous cure which was to last but a few minutes. — ee ee In Malarial Districts no family should be without ‘‘Brown’s Household Panacea.’’ It quickens the bleod, warms the system, and quickly breaks up the chills; 25 cents. Kidnapping Children in Paris. [From the Pall Mall Gazette. | In Paris people lament over the numerous disappearances ofinfants, and this is a mys- tery upon which no light can be thrown. It is certain that about six months ago the police arrested a woman Known as the ‘‘Ogresse des Lilas,’’ who is supposed to have stolen several children and to have made away with them in some mysterious manner. The ‘*Ogresse’’ is still in prison; she is a highly educated woman, who has moved in first- class society. but what her real name is the police haye been unable to discover. Toward the close of the reign of Louis XV. there was a report spread that a number of children had disappeared, and serious riots ensued when it was asserted that they had been kidnapped for his Majesty, who had been ordered to bathe in the blood of children.
