Wall Stkkkt, July 24. 12.30—The following lots just been unan imously adopted hy the Stock Exchange, in relation to the death of Gen. U. S. Grant “Death has removed that most illustrious citizen of our country, (General Ulysses S Grant. In common with our fellow-country men, members of the New York Stock Ex change hereby express their profound sorrow, and sincerely mourn the nation's loss. Gen. Grant lias occupied the highest positions and received the highest honors his country could bestow. As a soldier, he was signally vic torious, eminent in leadership, exalted in tidt lily to his friends, honorable and mag nanimous to his foes As a statesman he was tar-seeing, sagacious in his career. He lias received the world’s homage. His rec ord in American history is imperishable. He will remain forever enshrined in the hearts of a grateful and patriotic people. Resolved, That a copy of the minute be forwarded to his family, to whom the mem bers of the New York Stock Exchange tender their sincere and most respectful sympathy.” Washington, July 24. Chief Engineer Snyder, superintendent of the slate, war and navy department, borrowed a flag from the war department and had Rig ger Crowly place in position some halyards for the old flagstaff on the little building on the southwest corner of 17th and F streets, which was at one time Gen. Grant’s head quarters, now used by the clerks of the sec ond auditor’s office. In a few minutes the flag floated at half-mast from the former headquarters of the great chieftain. The members of the congregation of the Metropolitan Methodist Episcopal church, where Gen. Grant attended, will probably make arrangements for a meeting for a special service to be held in memory of Gen. Grant in case the remains are brought to this city. The use of the church will he tendered for the holding of funeral services. Prof Widdows who plays the chimes in the Metro politan church hastened to the church as soon as he learned of Gen Grant's death and tolled minute bells for one hour on the large bell of the chimes and then played the fol lowing dirges at intervals: “Windham Tune.” “Plyels Hymns,” “Flee as a Bird.” “Rock of Ages,” and then the funeral chime changes into E. Minor. In conclusion he struck General Grant’s age, 63 strokes on the large bell. Gen Grant was present on Thanksgiving day, 1X71, when the chimes were dedic ated. One of the hells was the gift of Mrs. Grant and bears her name. Secretary Bayard addressed a circular to all diplomatic and consular officers of the United States, inviting their attention to the President’s proclamation announcing the death of Gen. Grant. He directs that the flags of offices be displayed at half-mast on reception of the circular and the usual sym bols of mourning continue for thirty days The draping of the public buildings in honor of Gen. Grant is about completed. Many thousands of yards of crape have been used and drapery is profuse and taste ful. Sargeant-at-arms Canady, of the Senate, j has received the following despatch: It is proper that the Senate of the United States hail participate with other departments of the government and with the people in doing honor to the mem »ry of Gen.

The Oklahoma ••boomers” are contiiient that the country will soon be opened to them. In Denmark a drunken man is taken home in a hark by the police and the bill is sent to the saloon keeper who sold him the last drink. How would that work as a temperance move in this country Cigarette smoking, probably the most injurious wav ol using tobacco, has been rapidly growing in popularity in the last few years. In 187ti. 8,000,000 cigarettes were manufactured. Last year the num ber was 80O.OOtt.fKX). It is said that a bill granting $.5000 pen sion to Mrs. Grant, the amount which is usually given to widows of Presidents, will he offered ir. Congress by a Southern senator. The South remembers the mag nanimity shown at Appomattox. A certain ruling of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue lias caused some ex citement among Louisville tobacco manu facturers. The new ruling requires that the record books containing a list of the foreign ingredients used In the manufac ture of tobacco be kept open for public in spection. Heretofore the books have been kept secret. The ruling was brought about by Mr. Lori I lard ot New York ask ing to see the record ot the manufacturers at St Louis, who. in turn, asked to see the record at Louisville. Miss Blanche Williams, of Brantford, Canada, has just matriculated in the Uni versity ot Toronto. The event is made the subject of an editorial article bv The Toronto Globe, the reason being that the matriculant is a young lady of color, and the lirst to l>c admitted to the privileges of the university Six years ago two col ored girls, sis'ers, matriculated, but owing to the regulations then in force they were not allowed to attend lectures tti Univer sity College. Miss Williams, according to The Globe, passed in mathematics, his tory. geography, classics and Knglish. and obtained second-class honors in French and German. A case is now before the New York courts in which a number of English heirs are interested. The suit relates to the possession of certain property on Twenty fourth and Twenty-fifth streets, in New York City, once belonging to the late Mary Clark. Mrs. George T. Downing, ncr Grasse, of Newport, of Count de Grasse's family, et France, is also con tending for a part of the same estate, Thomas 1!. Clark, husband of Mary Clark, having deeded 39 of the lots to George de Grasse, the father of Mrs. Downing. Mrs. Downing’s ease is in charge of Gen. Ben jamin F. Butler and promises lobe one of considerable importance. The New York Tribune remarks that the production of “The Mikado” after it had been forbidden by Judge Wheeler is likely to prove no joke tor those men who are responsible for the performance at the 1'nien Square Theatre on Monday. Coun sel for the Gilbert and Sullivan side of the contest have come back from Vermont with a pocketful of orders of arrest, and Ludlow Street jail fairly yawns for Ko« enfeld, Abrahams and Perkins The own ers of the theatre are also summoned to ftirni*h good reasons why they should not be punished for contempt. Sure here is entertainment for the public for davs to come at considerable less than #1 50 for the best places. The heathen Chinee is not the party who has the sole agency for ways that are dark and tricks that are vain A corres pondent of the Titusville Herald, writing from Williamsport, devotes considerable spare to exposing these same ways and tricks practiced by the oil sharp. The oil sharp is an enterprising person who goes up and down Pennsylvania along what may be supposed to be the oil line, armed with a derrick and a drill, and seeking whom he may bamboozle. Having se lected a field, he proceeds to form a com pany and dispose of shares to the men of great and small means in the neighbor hood. He is a voluble, insinuating talker, and generally manages to sell a large quantity of stock His next move is to drill and b->re and to “salt" the well while he is doing so. In Wayne county, near Honesdale. we are told, one of the gentry boomed a bogus well by surrep titiously pouring "beautiful crude oil” into it. The same scheme was successfully employed in Wyoming county. In Brad ford county, twelve barrels of crude oil, carried across the country at night from Elmirs, were poured iDto a well, “and then,” says the correspondent, “the drill was passed down and into and through and oat of the splendid evidences of wealth in the presence of excited stock holders, who were kept so blissfully ignor ant that they immediately subscribed enough money to pay this unprincipled swindler an outrageous price for drilling another well in the vicinity to extend the supposed belt.” The Treasury and Importers. Secretary Manning has addressed the fol lowing letter to importers throughout the country Investigations of the methods of entry and appraisement ot imported merchandise have shown that the tariff laws are largely evaded by undervaluation, wherever the duties are levied ad valorem. A remedy suggested tor this evil is the adoption of specific duties With a view of obtaining information on this subject, which may he usetul to Congress in fiscal legislation, and serve as an aid in the improvement of the customs revenue system, it is deemed proper to ask the advice of mer chants whose business may be affected bv tariff legislation, and whose just interests, as well as those of the government, are depend ent upon the honest and efficient administra tion of the laws. You are therefore requested to give your own views as to the feasibility of simplifying the tariff and making the du ties specific upon imported merchandise with which you are familiar, as now subject to ad valorem rates, or to which the ad valorem principle is applied, together with such sug gestions as you may he pleased to make toward the removal of incongruities, so that the admini-tration of the revenue laws may be rendered more effective and uniform. It is suggested that your reply may be accom panied by a schedule showing the rates of specific duty, which, in your opinion, should he levied upon the various kinds and quali ties of merchandise named in such schedule and also the sp.-cifie rates which, according to your best information, would be equiva lent to the present ad valorem rates. Information is also desired as to w-liat ex tent, and with respect to what classes ot mer chandise your firm has suffered injury on ac count of evasions of tariff, and how, in your judgment, such evasions may he prevented, whether by specific duties or otherwise. Itoston's Suburban Citizens. The Boston depots of the various railroads centring in this city present a curious study of human nature in the afternoons from two to six o’clock. Especially is this true on Saturday afternoons,when a great number of “transients” are added to the usual suburban population. The transients and the tourists arc distinguished from each other by an un failing sign; the former carries a hag; the latter a bundle. The man who has gone out to the seaside, or the interior country, with his family, for the summer, becomes, per force, a species of local express. When John Smith comes to town leaving Mrs. Smith t dream away the day on a seaside piazza with all the blue Atlantic rolling at her feet, he is charged w ith the execut’on of various important commissions. He is in trusted with delicate and intricate shopping— the matching of a ribbon, the selection of a certain shade of gloves, the purchase of the warmer wrap that has suddenly become es sential. Or if Mrs. John Smith presides over the destinies of a cottage rather than the corner of a hotel piazza, the name of her wants is legion. Everything, from a copy of Esoteric Buddhism to the domestic clothes pin, is discovered to he wanti ig. and, w ith the usual easy graduation of the American citizen, John Smith nightly loads himself down. Talk of woman's rights Have men no rights that a woman is hound to respect Shall he forever give her the end ear-seat on the water side, ami stand in the horse cars that she may sit, and carry her packages and do her bidding Even so. It is the law and the prophets in America Here in Boston is a population of from tortv to eighty thousand people who do business in the city ami go in and out each dav "o the various railroads. It is estimated that 10,000 people each day come hr one railroad alone. That such an im mense local migration is carried on with such remarkable safety, promptness, precision and despatch is a fact which is a most significant commentary on the executive talent of rail road officers, and also furnishes a typical j commentary on the age of steam and pro gress— Traveller. Personal. Spurgeon, the English preacher, Ims a son who is a pastor in New Zealand, and whose s. rmons are said to be even more sensational t than his father’s. Herr Mileh, the Bavarian aeronaut, has just come to grief, after making more than 200 ascensions in safety. His balloon collapsed at a height of nearly a mile. Lord Palmerston once remarked that the drawbacks and objections to war are some what mitigated by the fact that it teaches geography to persons who otherwise would never learn it. T. Crawford tells a queer little story at illustrating Ferdinand Ward's rapacity. General Grant, he says, was accustomed to go up to New York to attend a board meet ing from Long Branch, and when he did he received the usual director's fee of a $10 gold piece. This he always gave to Mrs. Grant until she had some 70 or 80 of them. Ward heard of this and got hold of them He had so coaxed the remote savings of every individual member of the family that when the failure came there was not a single member of the family who had *100 at his command. (ieneral Sews. The English government received confirma tion, Wednesday,of the death of El Mahdi. Twelve fatal cases of sunstroke occurred in New York, Thursday. In Spain, Wednesday, there was a total of 2,278 new cases of cholera, and 048 deaths. The mutilated body of a woman was found in Charles river, Thursday. It is undoubt edly a case of murder Two per cent of the voting population of Bell county. Kentucky, is charged with mur der .Telly, “speckled” with strawberries, is the favorite di«h for suppers after dances in England The Associated Press announcement of the death of Gen. Grant left Mt. McGregon in less than a minute after his death. A terrible fire occurred Wednesday night at Crawford. France. Several persons were burned to death and sixteen houses were de stroyed The English government was defeated in the House of Commons, Thursday evening, by a vote of 180 to 130 on a clause of the medical relief bill. After mature deliberation the President and Cabinet have reached the conclusion that the leases of lands in the Indian Terri tory held by cattlemen are invalid, and it has been determined to take steps to have them set aside. A new field for stamp collectors has been furnished by the Prince of Monaco, who has replaced the current French stamps by those which bear his own head in profile, with “Principality of Monaco” printed above. In order to prevent their books from being stopped *t the Russian frontier, or even wholly confiscated, G rman authors are now obliged to submit all their ptoot sheets to the red pencil of the arbitrary Russian censor. Over 7000 cigars were found by revenue office** aboard a steamer which arrived in New York a few days ago. The cigars were found in the ice boxes, the water tanks, under the coal and other out of the way places. The marriage of Princess Beatrice, young est daughter of Queen Victoria, to Prince Henry, of Battenberg, took place Thursday, at St. Mildreds’ church, Whippingham, Eng land. At the close of the marriage ceremo ny a salno of gun« from the government ships in the harbor was fired. The bridal cake weighed 250 pounds. It was built up in three tiers, and rested on a pedestal of gold. It is said that the Qugen is the only member of the royal family who is pleased with the match. Hoaford's Acid Phosphate In Liver and Kidney Troubles. Dr. O. G.

They found several salmon therein, one being at the head and about to enter the waters above, j The Penobscot salmon are now characterized b-v tb*'ir medium and small size, which is evidence to the commissioners, that they are the same fish with which the river was pre viously stocked.

BOBIE'S PROCLAMATION Relative to the Ob*enanc/ ot the Late €Sen. Grant'* Knneral. Last evening, Gov. Ruble issued the fol lowing proclamation relative to the death of the late Gen. U. S. Grant and a public ob servance of his funeral: State of Maine By the Governor. A Proclamation. The national bereavement caused by the death of L S. Grant has suitably called forth a universal expression of sorrow throughout the civilized world. I am aware that the heart of the people of this State is in full sympathy with the general expression of econiura which has been so richlv bestowed on his exhalted character, measured on the battlefield for this Union, in its national ex ecutive departments, and finally exemplified in that last great trial for life, in which he displayed the glorious spectacle of a Divine self-sacrifice and composure, the fruit ot a God like manhood. In consideration of the death of s» illustrious a patriot and states man, I do recommend that our national flag he suspended at half-mast on the public build ings of our State until the day of the funeral, and that there be a g-neral suspension of public and private business during the hours •f the funeral services of our honored ex Presideot. Given at the Council Chamber at Augusta, this twenty-fourth day of July,in the year of our L»*rd one thousand eight hundred an i eighty-five, and of th independence of the Lnited States of America, the one hundred and tenth.

The annual report of State Land Agent Packard for the year ending Nov. 30, 1884, is published. From it we obtain the following There appears to be a misapprehension of the law relating to Reserved Lands,” or, as they are sometimes termed, ‘Public Lots,” or “School Lots.” Judgment has been ren dered in favor f the plantation in the case for the recovt ry of stumpage of timber cut on reserved lots in Cvr Plantation L R. 2). Another «uit is pending to recover rav for timber and hark cut *>n reserved lots in Silver Bulge Plantation, which will probably be i trod at the April term of court in Bangor. The care and custody of the ••Reserved Lands,” ,»r, as they are sometimes termed. “School Land*,” devolves upon the Land \geiit. The officers of plantations, in some instances, think and act as though these lauds w* re at t! eir disposal. They have, without authority, sold the timber from these lands and use*! the proceeds for plantation pur poses In 1824 the Legislature of Maine passed a law from which the following abstract is made: “And in all cases where lands have he* n granted or reserved tor the use of schools in any town w ithin this State, the fee in which hunt is not already otherwise invest ed, the *aiu>* shall he, and is hereby declared I to he invested in the inhabitant* of such town I for the use and support of schools therein forever In a suit brought by the State against Cut ler, Maine B* ports, vol. Ill, page 34'.*, where trespass upon reserved lands was alleged, it would app ar from the d >ci*ion of the court, that these lands were reserved for a perpetu al fund “h r the use ami support of schools,” in the several towns “forever;” that the S'at»* of ''wine never owned any part of these lands ai d consequently cannot sell or give them awitv, hu i* go .r-iian or trustee “for the sccurit *»f too e may he entitled to the benefit.” It ap to he w* 11 settled by law. ami siiHtained bv the court, that the State shall have tin* care and management of these lands (for the benefit of those for whom they were reserved) until the township in which th y lie, is incorporated into a town.

The c mimunication* received by the Gov ernor and Council from different sources are often.imts very grotesque and laughable. Recently an old gentleman wrote from Frank fort that he resided in the lower «tary of a house, while another party occupied the chambers above. His neighbors, he said, were in the habit of emptying filth out of their windows much to his announce, and he was desirous that the Governor and Council take some means to r« strain them. The mat U r was referred to the State Board of Health. Another epistle came from Hie first select man of a Waldo county town. This con tained a statement that a young man resided in his town who whs practicing medicine, but never having obtained a diploma was un able to collect his bills. It was represented that there was no other doctor in the place and the services of the youg man were indis- j pt-nsable. The town official was desirous that the Governor and Council arrange mat- j ters so thit the young man could collect his bills. Prof. Rolfe of the Hallowell Classical j School, has accepted a position in a private school in Memphis, Tenn. MAISE OFFICES. Waihlafton Special to the Boston Journal There need be no doubt about a clean sweep in Maine. Chairman Brown of the Maine Democratic Stale Committee has beat en the record by securing changes in 103 fourth class Post Offices in his State in four days He says that if he should stay twenty day* more, he could substitute ten Democra tic Postmasters a day for as many Republi cans. He says the zeal of the Maine Demo crats in attempting to obtain a fourth class Post office is unexamplified. His daily mail includes nearly one hundred letters about Post Offices. Mr. Brown predicts several changes of Collectors before the President’s departure on August 1. He says the Portland Collectorship will be among the first settled. At Belfast he thinks Rust will be appointed at once, with Gen. Leavitt at Eastport. and Lynch at Machias. At Waldoboro he also expects an early change, lie thinks L. F. Stratton will be made collector at Bangor in September. Mr. Brown declines to make any prediction as to the probable appointments at Portland, but other Maine men say Bion Bradbury and Nathan Cleaves can have the two principal offices whenever they agree as to the distribu tion. The Maine men are excited hut entirely in the dark about the Augusta Post mastership. Some *tate with absolute positive less that Col.
