People go about from bank to bank with coupons of tho nominal value of several bun dretls of pounds, and can nowhere get caah for them. There are also in Constantinople 25,000 officials, most of them with familios; their united salaries amount to about 2,000,000, and they have not received any pay since the beginning of the war, not even in paper Money, on which there k a loss of 80 per cent.

Through Raymond II. IVrry, who was Commercial Agent of the United States at Santo Domingo at the time of llabcock's visit, it became known that IJabcock was fully aware that Hotch had been arrested on trumped up charges solely because he was opposed to annexation, and that he was held a prisoner after he was acquitted for the same reason. It further appeared that Babcock was officially notified of tills reason for the detention, and yet in the faoe of all this he not only took no measure to secure hia release, though having ample power to accomplUh it, but acted in concert with Bacx's officials In prolonging Ida imprisonment. All these facts were officially reported to Secretary Kish by Mr. Perry. When the Senate called for Perry's correspondence, the material portions of it were withheld. Perry wm examined, but Babeoek and his RMocfate In that scheme, fearing that the San Domingo matter would be reopened at the next aeMlen, set about deTlsing means to defend thenwelves.

Moore, however, manufactured a Iouk affidavit charging Perry with having comaiitted murder In Texas coon after the cloq of the war. Tills affidavit did not name anv one who had been killed or who had dlappearcd. It. et forth that at a place near Eagle Pas home blood and hair had been found, and a mark in the road as if somebody had been draggfld into the river. Perry's tcouts had been about there a hort time before, and Perry's horse was wet. as if It had been used to drag the body Into the river hence Perry hud committed murder. The affidavit Is in Moore's handwriting, and this and the original of all the papers about to bo mentioned are now in safe hands, beyond the reach of. Moore or any of his accomplices in thi crime. The man who it is pretended igned tho aflldavit was not produced to the Clerk of tln Tmirt. but.

Tills was the plot against General Bristow. The proo;' of It is abundant and conclusive. It wlM' in the handwriting of the villains who i.igcd It on. It has been a continuous plot coming over iuto President Uayea's Administration, and taking some root In It too. Every charge which its directors have made against General Bristow is absolutely false. In so far a honest men have been deceived by them they do daily Injustice to a man who will never be excelled hy any officer who may attempt practical reform through courageous battle with fraud. MaJ. Moore refers in his letter to the fact that Gen. Grant had requested his retention.

H. V, BOVXTO.V. The Origin ef Steam Printing. It is remarkable that tho stoam engine was not called to the aid of the irinUng press sooner than it was; but t had Jong been used in many of the industrial arts before it became a bandmaid to "the art preservative of all arts." The first printing by stenm was on the issue of the London Tims for November 21), 1814. The improved hand-presses of that day could strike off only from two to three hundred impressions an hour, with one man to ink tho types and another to work the prose. At that rate a very large edition of a daily paper was simply impossible, for one day's work coidtl not lie completed before the next day's must begin. The Times men printed from three to four thousand conies daily, and Mr. John Walter, the proprietor (the second of that name), began as early as 1804 to consider whether the work might not be expedited in some way. in that year i nomas Martyn, a com positor in the Times oflice, got up a. model of a self-acting machine for working the press, atuf Walter furnish ed money for the continuance of his exjieriments. As usual in the early history of labor-saving machinery, this attempt met with bitter opposition from the workmen, who supposed their craft was in danger. Martyn was in fear of his life because of the threats of the pressmen, and partly on that account, and partly because Walter had small capital at that time, the schome was given up. As soon, however, as Konig's printing machine was invented, in 18H, Walter consented that it should be tried on the Times; but for fear of the workmen, the experiment was made, not in the regular printing oflice of the paper, but in an adjoining building. Here Konig and his assistant, Bauer, worked secretly for several months, testing and perfecting the machine. On the 29th of November every thing was ready for actual work on the paper, and tne result is thus told in a biographical sketch of Mr. Walter, which appeared in the Times in July, 1847 : The night on which this curious m&ohine was first brought into use in its new abode was one of great anxiety and even alarm. The suspicious pressmen had threatened destruction to any one whose inventions might suspend their employment destruction to him ami his traps.1 They were directed to wait for expected news from the Continent. It was about six o'clock in the morning when Mr. Walter went into the press-room,and astonished its occupants by telling them that the Times was already printed by steam, that if they attempted violence there was a force ready to suppress it; but that if they were peaceable their wages should be continued to every one of them till similar employment could be procured. The promise was no doubt faithfully performed ; and having so said he distributed several copies among thorn. Thus was this most hazardous enterprise undertaken and successfully carried through, and printing by steam, on a most gigantic scale, given to the. world." Pittsburgh Dispatch. Heaven's Prise. One week ago little infant May Gallagher took a prize at tho baby show held at the Methodist Church in this city. How proud did its fond mother feel when she hold her littlo charge above the heads of the throng, whoii the announcement was made by the ltev.

"Mary Jane," said the mother, "but we call her May!" Kiss after kiss was impressed upon those dimply cheeks, and many a " God bless tho little darling " went up from fond mothers. God has blessed thelittle darling." Itwa not to live in this world of grief and , care. Wo made so much of it hero that God said: 'Como up where sin w'dl never roach thee." It has fled heavenward, spiritually, but its little body will go to the grave this morning. Madison (Wis.) Democrat. On account of the prevailing lowrange of prices, some of the New England cotton mills are reducing their rateof production,while others are closed up altogether. The fact that prices have fallen below tho remunerative point proves that the production of cotton fabrics has been in excess of tho demand, and there is, of course, no effectual remedy but to close the factories or run on reduced time until the plethora, is abated. e Rice Wafllcs.
