Senator Morton

has our thanks for

valuable pub. doc's. Y+XJi.

The holiday recess of Congress, this year, extends through the two weeks, beginning to-day, and ending on the 5th of January.

-r^

No act of President administration Grantshasdeservedor recevedmore hear ty commendation than his nomination of E. M.

Stanton

to fill the vacancy Occas

ioned by the resignation of Tiistic Grier.

The $126,097, 32 raised in New York for the late safferen in the Avondala -mines, has been disposed of as follows: $12,727 to the families of the dead, $102,630 invested and deposited, and §10,713 the self-constituted charitable trustees of the fund have put into their own pockets.

If Congress is in earnest in its talk about economy and the necessity of curtailing governmental expenses, let it pass the blJl abolishing the franking privilege. Let the henofable Senators and Representatives show to the people that they are willing to sacrifice something themselves, to give up at least one of their perquisites, at a time when all are required to bear heavy burdens.

The Cincinnati Chronicle thinks it "highly probable that Mr. Ashley's political career, as a Republican, is at an end. Whether lie may succeed in commanding the confidence of the Democracy of Montana, whose favor he has been courting, and so "still have a stake," we will not run the hazard of predicting. He naturally belongs with that party, we should say, and can very readily adapt h^itfselffo the demands of that wing, thfe 'party,!especially, which covets success through a new departure."

The Indianapolis Journal asks Congress to please accept the little suggestion that "it is by no means necessary or dignified to have a solemn vote passed declaring the faith of the nation for the full payment of the public debt every time some little whipper-snapper, anxious for notoriety, makes a repudiation speech. The national debt is provided for in the Constitution, is hedged about by numberless laws and resolutions, and, better than all, is protected by the good faith and virtue of the people."

New Orleans appears to be in a bad way. Assuming an adult male population of 70,000, the Bulletin states that there are 15,000 entirely idle, and the same number only nominally employed* Only 5,000 are employed the year through, and "the remaining 35,000 do, on an average, only about half the labor and business of which they are capable if thev could but find daily employment." It will thus be seen that the prospect is rather discouraging for those who may think of applying for a "situation" in New Orleans.

(Jen. IiUTi/Eit proposes a very good thing, for the Government pensioners, the greater portion of whom cannot wait until half-yearly payments are made, and consequently have to resort to money-lenders who demand extravagant ratei of interest. Gen. Butler'sscheme contemplates payments every two months through the means of post-office money orders. A reform eo easily carried out, and which will work so much good to a class peculiarly meriting the care of the Government, ought to receive the sanction of Congress without delay.

Rev. Theodore L. Cuyler, who writes that he has "made too many speeches with Neal Dow before Legislatures and Synods, &c., in behalf of prohibitory legislation" for any one to give him new views on that topic, says: "A genuine prohibitory law is hard to get and hard to keep. If it actually shuts up the tippling house?.' then the trinity of avarice, appetite and fashion are arrayed against it with venomous vehemence. If it is ad cad letter, then the law is hardly worth the paper it is printed on. And a law for suppressing the liquor traffic always will be a dead letter in every community where there is not a powerful and active public sentiment against rum-selling. Such 'suppression' of grog-selling as Boston has seen for the last three months is enough to make the Cevel laugh." v'i

It win be remembered that the Ex. press earnestly protested against the appointment of Ashley to the Governship of Montana. Ilis retirement from that position is, therefore, a cause of gratification to us, aud this sentiment derived additional force from the fact that his successor is, in all respects,a worthy man: Gen. Benjamin F. Potts is a native of Carroll county, Ohio, and 33 years of age on the 29th of January last. In 1S6Q, then but twenty years old, he took an active part in politics, as a Democrat. In 1857 he commenced the study of the law, and began his practice at Carrollton. He was a delegate to both the Charleston and Baltimore Conventions of '60, where he supported Douglas. At the commencement of the Rebellion he raised a company for the 33d Ohio Regiment, of which he was chosen Captain. His waf record is specially brilliant, he having served with distinction in many of the' mast prominent battles of Western Virginia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia and North and South Carolina. He participated in the battles near Atlanta on the 20th, 21st 22d and 28th of July, '64. Gen. Giles A. Smith, in a private letter at the time, said: "Col. Pottsdid more on the 22d of July to save the good name of the Army of the Tennessee than any other one man." He received his promotion as Brigadier General when at Pocotaligo, S. C. in January, '65. He now stands recommended for a Colononelcy in the regular army by Generals Sherman, Howard, Logan,Smith and Blair.

The Terre Haute Journal, a Democratic paper, in alluding to the defeat of the Ingersoll bill to issue $44,000,000 of legal tenders, says: "It is true that the vote on the bill indicated that Western doughfaceism in Washington is not as contemptibly servile as it has ^een." This is said by way of compliment' to Coburn and other Republican members who voted against laying the bill on the table— killing it outright. What has the Journal to say of Kerr, of our own State, Mungen, of Ohio, Cox and ^Brooks. of New York, and the Democratic members from Indiana, and other States, who voted to lav the bill on the table? In this case the "doughfaceism" 6eems confined to the Democratic members. Have thev been bought up by the landholders?—Madison Courier. 1

There were but few visitors when I was there. The hight of the giant Is 10 feet 4} inches, or would be if he stood erect, which he is not calculated to do very well. He reclines upon his back, with his right hand pressed upon his side, and his left hand pressed upon his back,pndicating_that he died of the liver complaint aggravated by the bilious colic. He evidently died hard, and he has been getting harder ever since. 3? lie right side of the face is ijeirly perfect, showing a noble profile, but the left side is very much worn away by the action of water, as indeed is the entire left side of the body and limbs. It is the form of a powerfully-developed man who died in the vigor of life.

The skull is perfectly smooth, showing no indication of hair. (Wood's hair restorative is being tried by Mr. Wood to bring it out. but so far in vain.) The ma term frofunfrluchfWTgialit IT*Pfff8B, (and by wfiicli the proprietors lire carving their o^n'fbrtcm'fej, is gypsutn/a mineral cdasLstrng^of sulphate of lime and '21 per cent*, of water.

None of them ever got 21 per cent, of water^ in their system in all their lives. They might "get to be gyp -some, but not altogether.

An enthusia^ic spiritualist \yhj was viewing the giant with me averted his entire belief tluit,he -was a petrified giant, and declared that being himself a medium, he had actually received communications from the giant's spirit. I asked the medium if I could be permitted to propound a few q'ic ions to the giant through him, and he said I could. I propounded as follows:

THE OIANT interviewed.™* Q.—"Who are you V" A.—"I'm A. Simmer." Q.—"Were you nhvavs as hard as you are now?"

A.—"No simplv a hard-rams that's all. Now I'm haul all thiough." Q.—"Were your pareitlsjlumn"

Q.—"Why did voir ttirn to stone?" A.—Because I didn't kjpw what else to turn to at the time.'4

Q.—"What were yovj petrified with 7"^ A.—'"Petrified wiih astonishment." Q.—"Ever have any of the infantile diseases?"

A.—"Yes stone-bruise on the heel." Q.—"What were your boyish amusements?"

A.—'"Playing marbles, riding on a stoneboat and running around stoneqnar* ries.

Q.—"What is your occupation?" A.—"Laying stone, at present." Q.—"Got brothers?" A.—"Yes." Q.—"Are they like you?" A.—"Yes, aJJ^ntlie stone^biisine&s." "Did thde^toTiy Heart eVer feel'thy softening power of love? Didst ever have' a sweetheart?" (At mention of a sweetheart he softened visibly a sigh heaved his massive chest, while something like a tear trickled down his stony cheeks (washing away some more gypsum), but he quickly recovered, and was stone again. He was silent, and I didn't press the question.) srs

Q.i—''llbw do you feel now, any hp c'l A.—'1 fell a good deal icorn, terfpiciaily on my left side. Besides, I don't like this idol life."

Q.—"What was your drink?" A.—"Stone-fence." Q.—"Would you like to throw in a glass now."

A SfOllY OF SHIPWRECK.

Loss of the* Steamship Grecian, of the Anchor Line—Gallant Rescue of Her Passengers and Crew. From the New York Tribune.] UlcUJJ

The Anchor line of steamers seems unfortunate. A few months ago one of their extra steamers, the United Kingdom, left this port for Glasgow deeply laden, and with a hundred or more souls on board. She has never been heard from since. The Grecian, Captain Nicol, a line steamer, employed in the trade between Liverpool and the Mediterranean, but on the voyage bound from Palermo to New York, laden with a cargo of marble and fyuit, and twenty-three Italian passengers, has been wrecked on our coast.g

The Grecian was well in with the land near Jones or New Inlet on the night of the loth hist.,' when a severe northeast gale set in, and in a short time a heavy fog came on. At 3 o'clock on the morning of the 16th ifist., with scarce a minute's warning, the ship struck. At this time die storm was at its height and the sea waS tremendous. After striking, the force of the wind and sea drove her broadside on, and all hope of saving the vessel was abandoned. Rockets were sent up and were seen by Capt. Waters, Superintendent of the Atlantic Ooast Wrecking Company, Who finding that it would be certain death to attempt to board her in the darkness and with such a terrific" sfep running, mounted a horse and rode to New York, arriving at 5 o'clock. In a very few minutes afterward the steamer Yankee was on her way to the stranded vessel.

At daylight Capt. Nicol, of the Grecian, fearing that the snip would go- to pieces, ordered two of his be3t life-boats' launched, and put into them tweiitl-ttroe persons, trusting to-land them in Safety on the beach. The boats were freighted with their human cargoes amid great peril, and the poor Italians, were nearly, frightened to death, but the stout-lieartecl Britishitars succeeded at last in getting clear with their boats. All went well for a short distance when one of the boats was swamped. Capt. C. N. Smith launched his surLbo.tt ana succeeded in rescuing the enure party. The two boats being landed, Capt. Smith made an'attempt to reach the Grecian but it was not until after being beaten back twice that he gained the side of the vessel. After much difficulty five of the crew were taken" hi the surf-boat and landed.

In the meantime Capt. Waters had returned, and with Capt. Smith resolved to make, an attempt to rescue the.seyenteen persons remaiiung on board* Time after time the boats put out, only to be beaten back by the force of the wind and sea.— About ten o'clock in the evening the boats succeeded by almost superhuman efforts in reaching the vessel aud in rescuing the remainder of the crew. Before they left the weakening of the ship grew momentarily more apparent, and shortly after-' ward she broke in two, and her cargo ot fruit soon strewed the beach. .:V'An Iowa woman helped her husband to raise seventy acres of wheat last year.— She boesedlhe job from the parlor and he did the work.^ljpq.-
