3300,000,000. Of this, some $270,000,000, or nine tenth* of the wliole, is in the city of Chicago.

The

London papers teem with commu­

nications and editorials on the subject of the "Alabama" claims. Some of the correspondents try hard to show that the United States Government is occupying an untenable position in the dispute.' The journalists, on the other hand, acknowledge the fairness of the claims, but incline to the opinion that we ask too mfcch, both *in money and considerate treatment and assert that Messrs.

Revehdy Johnson

and J. L. Motley yielded to Uritish influence. The London

Spectator

defends

lxth the latter gentlemen from these charges, and facetiously asserts that Minister

Johnson

impartially took in

the English people and their dinners, in which remark there is about as much

truth as wit, and there is considerable of both.

Let

and

worth be remembered as the opponents of the Georgia bill which passed the House on Tuesday. Their vo es on that occasion will be an item iw- history of which their dependents will no. be proud. In discussing the bill ili'Ti.Kit stated that ie S ateSenator and four Rep escntatiyes had been murdered, and fifteen had been driven from their homes, and now it is proposed by Mr.

Beck,

of Kentucky to

allow the rebel element to fill the vacancie*Miuscreated thus defeating the fifteenth amendment and every other measure of security. "That was a new way of changing majorities—to murder vour opponents and then fill places." And yet ^ingham and

Ftheir

arnswoktii desired

to postpone the subject long enough to permit the balance of the Kfepuhlican majority to be murdered or driven out!

But­

ler seemed to condense the argument in

a nutshell. ..

the Washington cori espondence

of the Cincinnati

Gazette

Ashleynomination.

In

it appears that

the President gives as his for removing Governor

Ashley,reason

of Montana,

that, in the first place, he was not fully satisfied of his fitness, but allov.cd himself to be overruled by the almo.it unanimous recommendations of the Republicans in Congress which

Asiili

brought.

Next, after the nomination his attention was called to the Dear Case letters, on which he believed the Senate would reject the After confirmation,

made a speech at the West, in

which he expresses the opinion that the Republicans should not desert the Admin istration because of the many injudicious appointments it must be conceded it had made—which the President thought came with very bad grace from

Asii

lastly comes a report of a specch in Montana, where he declared in effect that he was prepared and quite willing to represent the views of the majority in the Territory upon the negro question. Such a bid for the favor of the Democracy the President thought a very unpromising sign and a good ground for removal.

looking over the multitude of bills presonted in Congress thus far—most of which will probably be smothered in the hands of the Committees to which they were referred, a fate which many of them deserve—the editor of the Chicago

Rcpub

selects three which he thinks particularly worthy serious coasideration. We agree with our Chicago cotemporary in

in his estimate of tlieee "good measures" and hope for their enactment into laws. The first is

Ingersoll's

bill providing

for an extra issue of $44,000,000 of greenbacks, to be devoted to purehasingUnited States six'per .cent, bonds. Second in importance is the bill drawn by Senator

Drake

for securing uniform na ional elec­

tions. It provides that the Presidential Electors shall be chosen on :hc second Tuesday of October, and that, on the same day, preceding the beginning of a new Congressional term, Representatives shall be chosen in all the States. The

Bcpubticar»

believes

the substitution of a date a m.nitli earlier than the present for holding Pi evidential

elections is of no great importance, yet, on the whole, thinks it would be preferable. It would give ample time for the summer canvass, and the election day would come at a more favorable season of the year, so far as weather are concerned. The simultaneously of Congressional elections is a good feature, which ought to have been realized before. Indeed it is high time that the incongruity of Congressional elections was done a way with. Third is the bill submitted by Mr.

Sargent,

requiring American Consuls residing in countries which produce crops coming into competition with our own in the markets of the world, to furnish accurate quarterly reports of the condition of such crops to the State Department, which will transfer them to the Department of Agriculture, for circulation in its monthly cirlars. There is much force in the

Republi­

suggestion tnat such a course would be of the greatest value to the producing interests ofthe country by enabling our farmers to dispo of their crops intelligently and to the best advantage. It would stimulate legitimate business and prevent speculation to a great degree. The majority of our Consuls abroad are not so laboriously employed but that they would have ample time to make up and forward these new reports.

An American Woman in the British Museum. A bright, chatty correspondent o* the Boston IZYaiyiHer, now visiting England, gives the following account of her dropping in at the British Museum:

The name is no accident, for anything more characteristically British than the whole institution would be difficult to find. Not even the Bank of England with its Shvloeks in long red cloaks at the church-vard gates, its great dining room and its vanits stored with bullion. Not the National Gallery, whoe name is eclipsed by the wealth of other lands whwh adorn its walls, nor the Abbey and palaces which belong more to mediaeval Europe than to England of to-day, nor the Crystal Palace and South Kensington Museum, which are cosmopolitan rather than British. But the old Museum, from the date ofSir Hans Sloane's,bequest and its acceptance Jby Parliament a hundred years ago, has been a treasury of English learning. The arrival of Egvptiar antiquities 1801, nnd the purchase of the Townley Marbles in ISOo, necessitated a new building with floors strong enough to sustain the enormous weight. The Elgin Marbles arrived in 1811, the Phigalian and Kanthian later, and the vast collection of Ninevite, sculptures exhumed by Mr. Layard have since been added. The buildings, as they now stand with their exterior of massive gloom, their interior of untold wealth but rigid grandeur to a casual visitor, and their inmost

Passing out throughr the line of friendly Cerberi, who guard this golden orchard, we find ourselves again in the stony gloom of the entrance hall. W^an dering on through the Gareco Roman ealoon, between rows of emperors and em presses, lawn and satyrs, Aphrodites and Athenes, we enter the room of the Elgin Marbles. The name had always been a spell to conjure with, and has attracted jus irresistibly toward London.

CHRISTMAS IS COMING!

Anniversary days are created, celebrated for a time, neglected and then forgotten, Holidays are inaugurated, that flourish for a period as flourisheth the arhorian product of Green Bay, only to pass into oblivion but Christmas will endure forever. The star the wise men saw, that gave hope and promise to a sinful and sorrowing world, whose guidance they followed until it stood over the humble stable in Bethlehem, has left a gleam of light and warmth and gladness that will survive as long as homes are fashionable and the family relation endures.

The wise men cf the East brought presents to lay at the feet of the Savior—j"gold and frankincense and myrrh." Is it this circumstance that, after more than eighteen hundred yearsfinvests the Christmas present with an interest that is attached to no other gift we may receive? The iplest gift sometimes attains a value, if associated with Christmas, that rich presents may not: enjoy. All do not know or realize the significance of Christmas, but the sentiments of generosity, gratitude and affection which its return awakes, all recognize n«d (eel. So let tte. never become insensible to the coming of Christmas. Let the children shout "Chrismas is coining!" as -loud as they may. Rejoice in their gladness, for th,e delights of Christmas are innocent, delights. Some bf us old Trojans may well "beware of the Greeks when they bring gifts," but the custom of an interchange of Christmas presents is something to be encouraged, and more especially should the little ones be remembered, to wliom there is more significance in the often quoted expression, "Christmas cotaes but once a year," than to us older ortes, with whom the circling years roll all too rapidly.

Look back, my counting-room friend, to ycur own boyhood. Close the lids of your ledger for a little time, abandon the world ot business aud take the back track, of imagination (o the world of childhood. Do yon remember about what time you began to count the days that intervened beiore Christmas would arrive? Wasn't if soon after you h'ad recovered from the effects of an extravagant thanksgiving dinner? Thanksgiving did very well so far as dinner was concerned, going to church and all (^iat, but it didn't include gifts in its somewhat limited catalogue of joys. There was something the same objection to it a« a holiday the little boy made to the Fourth of July: you couldn't hangup your stocking and slide down hill.

Yes, it was a long while, if^ou recollect, between thanksgiving and-Christmas —Christmas, the king of all the holidays, from the Saturday afternoon school holiday up. You remember how you boys used to get together days and days before Santa Claus was due, or had even thought of starting, and speculate as to what the old fellow would bring you. One wished a pair of skate-s would come to him, an-' other was suffering for a sled, while a third was reduced to a condition pitiful to witness for the want off a rockinghorse or a magic lantern.

Then when the winter days crept lazily along (talk about the days being shortest in winter you can't make a boy believe it just before the holidays), and brought Christmas at last, and when after a long night of tossing and feverish dreams the gray dawn appeared at length, and running with bare feet on the cold kitchen floor, you sought the stout woolen stocking hanging from the mantle, and found just what you have been praying for, what gratitude you felt toward the cood Santn Clans, and how you wondered in what way lie discovered your particular desire. This, old friend of the counling-room, was some years ago, when you and we were young there were such things as kitchens with great fire-places that seemed to be made expressly for St. Nicholas to descend, pack ana all, with ample mantles to hang

(oh, so cold of an early Christmas morning, to bare feet), and t^jequre whose whiteness our motherrinl|^did not scorn to press or

took^T^hai ^whoppfn^labrication about S. CSeoming down the chimney to fill our stocking, as readily as the generality of young gentlemen do before experience teaches them implicit confidence is ngt to b» placed in man, not even trhfre •hfe holG the confidential relation of father or mother. Bright as we were nati

descend it once, and it was not unreasonble that S. Claus could accomplish the feat also, but we think we would hare stuck on the idea of his coming down a stove-pipe or a furnace flue, or even a modern chimney. The narrative about St. Nich. riding over house roofs in a sledge, drawn by reindeers, was not wholly accepted in the country, however it may have answered in the city.

In the la^eqctse rood are sufficiently unit#d Aud on a level to admit of a show of plausibility, but in the country, where dwellings are often half a mile apart, it won't go down. We recollect now, that part of the story was never pressed upoii us, and we were left to infes that the old fellow traveled on the usual highways and gained the roof by climbing the lightr ning-rod.

It is not an entirely happy point in a boy's exwlenpe wlien he (hsqoverswlmt a mytlucil J^rMWglSanta Clause reallyfis. *m ltolf feirHw«-ld inlwMch |as deceives iUolnw wlien o» Siih. is toppled over. He mourns him as he would a lost friend. He wonders if anybody is anything. He begins to doubt whether Cinderalla ever existed, whether

Aladdin had any wonderful lamp, or such a person as Sinbad the Sailor ever lived. It's a chance if he don't denounce Robinson Crusoe as a humbug and the Bluebeard story a lie. feels as though he?had been put ai it werof amfms aaiMi tariHed with. Ire lodks u£on himself as the victim of a confidence game, played on him by his parents, who had undertaken to show him the world. It has its useful effect, however. At that point he loses his hold upon the dreams and fairy vagaries of childhood, and begins to fix his grasp upon the realities of life, and operation not always pleasant, but necessary, as society and man are now constituted,

How one can run on about this historic holiday, around which so many reminiscences cluster. We had almost forgotten our old friend whom we had called from his ledger to go back with us to the Christmas of long ago. It is growing darker in the counting-room-the windows want washing sadly—and we can see him leairfng back in his chair,' busy with recollections of ChrisSmasses passed.

If, now, when yt)u return to your happy home—for you have a happy home—yon Jjear the children talking qf: the coming 6f Christmas, and chattering like magpies of what it will probably bring them, think ofyour own childhood, and join withthem in their joyous anticipations. Christmas only comes once a year, and it only comes at one period in a lifetime when it is thoroughly enjoyed. Help the children then, to feel that Christmas has indeed come by gifts, and joy, and innocent mirth, and if it don't bring to your individual self the delights it once did, you can enjoy through your children the advent of "Merry Christmas."—Cincinnati
