R'BV. D*. ABI»ER, the colored parson of Richmond Va., having preachcd his famdut termon on "The Sun do Move' before the Legislature now proposes to gite Congress an opportunity to listen to him. He could probably persuade that body that the world will not move without an Appropriation.

THE prospect for the establishment a public library in the city was never better than at the present time. In the hands of energetic persons, anJ backed by a public sentiment which is very earnestly in favor of 6uch an institution, there is at last good reason for believing that we 6hall soon have a library in our nAdst.

A CONVENTION to revise the constitution of Louisiana will meet in April. This will be the seventh convention of thit kind held in Louisiana. Her constitution teems to have been greatly in need qf repffirt. The first convention was held in iSit, the second in 1845, the third in 1852, the fourth in 1861,the fifth i85i and the sixth in 1868.

Si MOM CAMKRON seems to have been a gay Lothario —a very gay Lothario indeed. Having always borne the reputation of being of the world worldly, the sort of charges now being made against him will do him no manner of injury, jurs. Oliver ought to have preferred her charges of immorality against some man who had a character to lose.

IN another column is a call by the Democratic city committee forth ward meetings and the city convention. The former are to be held on Wednesday evening of next week, the latter the next evening. This is beginning the campaign early, but not too soon for the thorough canvass which must be made. The prospects are decidedly favorable to the Democrat?.

AGAIK something has been^ don* which our Notional Fiatic friends insisted would not and could not be done. Congress was organized yesterday without their aid and in spite of their opposition. So far as any effect on the question of electing a speaker was concerned they might not have been there at all. Now that a sptaker has been chosen the}' will be heard from no more.

Now that the great walking match has ended New York will settle down to quiet life again. No previous match of this kind has ever caused half the excitement that this one has. During the six days and a half it lasted, the gate money amounted to the enormous sum of451,000. The champion belt, which Rowell takes back with him to England, is the one which O'Leary won after a gallant fight for it in England less than a year ago.

LAST week the New York Graphic published a sensational article to the effect that some Professor of Agricultur al Chemistry had examined samples ot last year's crop of No. 2 Spring wheat, such as they raise altogether in the North-west, and found that the sprouting qualities of it had been seriously damaged. On. it was based the prediction that if it was used for seed this Spring the crop would be failure. Considerable excitement seems to have been raised by this rumor. It now trans pires, however, that there need be no fear all on this ground.

CINCINNATI journalists are, as it were, not to have their powers confined by any pent up newspaper. On the wings of the morning they soar into the cloudless regions of romance. A Jour nalist in the Paris of America does not feel that he has accomplished his destiny until he has placed his name on the title page of some book and secured immortality by his connection

*ZS-

with the permanent literature of the country. A fame, however light, which rests merely on the ephemeral issues ot a daily paper, and is *iade'%to-day to be forgotten tt) morrow, naturally fails to satisfy that craving which longs for something permanent. Therefore the book. Among the latent persons to enrol himself with the book makers is Fred Hassaurek, editor of the Volkes blatl, and formerly minister to Ecuador. Hii book, which bears the ti tie of "The Secret of the Andes," is a romance founded on fact, the 6cene of it being laid at Quito, South America. His residence in South America has made him perfectly iamiliar with the region he describes.

Robert Clark & Co. are the publishers.

AMONG the multitudinous bills introduced into the Legislature by some industrious Solon of our beloved State is one to prevent betting. Just what its provision* are we do not know, the bill never having been published. Its aim, however, is plain. By its means the gentleman who originated it hopes to prevent what, to him, seems an iniquitous practice. Whether or not it has any chance of passage is not apparent. Public sentiment is not so strong as it once was against this species of diversion. Indeed, 60 long as it is merely a diversion and not a regular business little fault is found with it. So far as critical observation has extended, what the people need more than a law preventing betting is one by which people who bet and lose may be incarcerated in a dungeon if they do not pay If it shall be objecteed that it seem severe to imprison a person for failing to pay a trifling bet, it may be answered that if permitted to go unpunished, small offenses lead to grave crimes. With a view, therefore, of preventing the spread of crime the earliest opt-crop. ping of knavery ought to be Severely treated. It is Do answer to this to say that such obligations are debts ot honor. Honorable persons, and they are many, will pity of course. JJjut" the law is intended to catch tho&c devoid of thatquali. ty, who do rot qoftfe their conduct by (he maxim that tiotWst}' is the b8t capital to bank on. lfsome Legislator will turn his attention to (his point' he will be likely to accomplish., something worthy ot remembrance by" a grateful constituency. He will particularly please those honest souls who do pay UD every loss.

AUOUT BURGLARS.

A thief was arreted in New York the other day having in his pocket the silver top of a 6having tfrusti oh 'which were the initials H. W. B. It was taken to Tiffany, the jeweler, and by him identified as part of a set made by them for Henry Ward Beecher. A World reporter was sent to interview the reverend gentlemen. Mr. Beecher stated that Tiffany must have been mistaken in his statement in reference to the piece of silver bearing his initials having been made for ,him.* He had never had anything of the kind and lost nothing like it. The conversation then branched off onto the subject of burglaries in general and Mr. Beecher gave expression to his views on the question of burglars and the treatment which should bg accorded them. What Ke Mid fwpw so thoroughly sound and sensible thit we reproduce it here as giwn in thfe inter-1' view. It was as follows:. "Mr. Beecher," said tberebortfer, "yoil have read the account of the jplltfig of a burglar by Captain Richard*, M)f tHe Seventh Regiment. What do you think of it?" "Entirely justifible!" ansewered Mr. Beecher with emphasis. "Suppose you found a burglar in your house at night. What would you do?" "Shoot him quick as lightning!" exclaimed the clergyman almost fiercely. "Any man who from motives of person al safety allows a burglar to walk through his house with impunity not only acts in a cowardly manner, but violates one of the most sacred duties he owes to the community. Every man's house is his castle not only to live in but to defend.

I regard him who fails to defend it in the same light as I would a soldier who, being intrusted with the defense ot a fort allows the enemy unresisted to enter and take posbesetsion of it. To permit a burglar to ransack my house is an injustice to the community because it holds out a temptation to shiftless young men 10 commit burglaries. Experienced cracksmen of course will run risks where there is a big prize to be won, but ordinary robberies are committed by less fearless men, who would not attempt them if they knew they would incur the danger of being killed in the act. Now what could a burglar get by coming into my hou6e? The things he could gather up and carry off are such as he could not sell for more than $20 and do you think he would risk hi6 life for that? No, indeed I Bat, he argues, 'Beecher is a clergyman he would rather lose twenty watches tban take a man's life.' Not a bit ofit. I wouldn't let him take the pointer ot a watch. And not from a mere property consideration either, but because it is my duty to defend the sane tity of my household. My house where my wife and children live shall not be entered violently by anv man except at his peril. And so I have taught my wife and all my children to shoot, and any burglar who enters my house may expect to be killed."

The reporter then called Mr. Beecher's attention to the fact that a religious paper published in this city recently offered as prizes for increasing its sub scription lists three sizes of revolvers

INVENTION FOR THE MARINES. A report of curious a invention comes from New South Wales. Particulars Of it are related by a correspondent of the Courier in that place. The invention, which is the joint-work of Signer Roturaand Mr. James Grant,is designed principally to assist in trannportating stock, to England. If it should prove successful it will be mure beneficial to Australia and will do more to advance her material prjsperity than anything else that could possibly happen to her. Signor Rotura, it seems, went to Mr. Grant with the story that he had discovered a South American vegetable poison, allied to the well-known woorara, in which the power resided of suspending animation. This trance could be continued until, by the application of another vegetable essence, the blood could be caused to resume its circulation. Signor Rotura found, moreover, that this suspension of life was 60 perfect that, in warm climates* decomposition set in at the extremities after a week. But he imagined that if the body, while in this condition, could be rcduced »o a temperature cool enough to prevent decomposition the trance might be kept up indefinitely. With a view of testing the truth of his assertion Mr. Grant tried an experiment on his dog. The Australian Mr. Grant seems to have been an exception *o our Hircia in this respect, for he kept a dog while Hiram refuted that alone of the multitudinous things offered him by his hungry friends in search of office. Buttiiisisa digression. The Australian Grant tried some of this vegetable poison on his dog. It worked to a charm. The dog was to all respects dead, and 6taid that way fot* twenty-four hours. At the time some of the restorative *was given him and he returned to life and activity at once. After this experiment Mr. Grant determined to embaik in the enterprise, with Signor Rotura with a view of seeing if animals might not be shipped alive from Australia to England. It was determined to try the effect of freezing the carcasses of a number of animals sleeping anxious under the effects of the drug. results of these experiments the pondent says:

Of the corres-

On Saturday last 1 was invited to go down to see what had been effected. Arrived at the the works in Middle Harbor, 1 was taken into the building that contains Mr. Grants apparatu's for generating cold. Attached to this is the freezing chamber, a small, dark rooui about eight feet by ten feet. Here were fourteen sheep, four lambs, ar.d three pigs stacked on their sides in a heap, alive, which Mr. Grant told me had been in their present position for nineteen days, and were to remain there for another three months. Selecting one of the lambs, Signor Rotura put it on his shoulder and carried it outside into the other building, where were a number of shallow cemented tanks in the floor having hot and cold water taps to each tank, and a thermometer hanging alongside. One of these tsnks was quickly filled, and its temperature tested by the Signor, I meanwhile examining with the greatest curiosity and wonder the nineteen-days' dead lamb. There was the lamb, to all appearances dead, and as hard almost as a stone, the only difference perceptible to me between his condition and actual death being the the absence of dull glassiness about the eye, which still retained its .'brilliant transparency. The. Iamb was dropped gently into the warm bath, and was allowed to remain in about twenty-three minutes, its head being raised above the water twice for the introduction of a thermoneter into the mouth, and then it was taken out and placed on its side on the floor. Signor Rotura quickly dividing the wool on the neck and inserting the sharp point of a small silver syringe under the skin and injecting the antidote. This was a pale green liquid, and is, I believe, a decoction from the root of the Astrachariis, found in

South America, The lamb was then turned on its back, Signor Rotura standing across it, gently compressing its ribs with

vhi8

knees and hands in such a

manner as to imitate natural breathing. In ten minutes the animal was struggling to free itself, and when released skipped but through the door and went gamboling and bleating over the little green in front. Nothing has ever impressed me so entirely with a sense of the marvelous. One is almost tempted to ask, in the presence of such a discovery, whether (Lath itself may not ultimately be baffled by scientific investigation.

Venturesome Rotura says that although it has not as et been tried on a human being, there is no reason for doubting that it would be successful if so tried. He thinks it would be perfectly safe. The owners of this process will doubtless ask permission of the authorities to try it on some criminal who has been condemned to death. Then we shall know its effect on mankind.

HOW OTHERS SEE US. A distinguished Scotchman, Sir George Campbell, lately completed an extended tour through the United States. On his return home, he lectured on his experi ences before an audience in Kilcardy From a published report ot his remarks, we take the following extract, in which he gives his views of American women and men: "There is a popular idea that the Americans are so civilized that they object to marriage, and that for increase of the populaticyi the Americans must de-

with a prospectus remark that a revolver pend no* upon themselves, but upon forin the house at midnight is somethimes eianers. I b»lieve that this is quite a li The peculiar »ects of which we hear

bel. so much are but a orop among the popu lation. I myselt saw none of them, but I did see a great many people who did not belong to this peculiar sect, and undecided impression is that the Americans marry earlier and tru6t to their wit6 t» support a family more than do, and that they have large and rapid families, ju»t such as we have, and there is not the least danger that the American popula tion will die out. In nothing 1 think does Mr. Trollope so much libel the Americans as in the most odious character which he attributes to the average middle-class woman of America. He seems to depict her as a kind of heidous Jezebel who invades tramway cars and other public places, turns men out of their seats in the most audacious and unfeeling manner, and as serts woman's rights, with the most entire disregard to the rights ot unhappy males. Perhaps Mr. Trollope's denunciations have had some effect in working a reform, but all I can 6ay is that 1 saw nothing whatever of tht kind. Where a car is crowded men will generally give seats to women just as they do in a Metropolithn railway in London, but I never saw anything more than this. On the contrary, it seemed to me that the more purely American of the American women—those who are not accustomed to spend money in an ostentatious way in Europe, and tc overdress and overpeacock there—are very nice people indeed. It is the Daisy Miller, and the Daisy Miller's mammas, who to some extent have given the American women a bad name. See them at home and they 6eem to me among the nicest of their sex. Women's rights too are not much overdone in America. Women's suffrage is entirely at a discount. Nobody has it, and nobody seemed to nie to want it, except in some remote States where they have established some new fangled social experiments. Although they do not claim female suffrage, the American girls are certainly more independent than, our girls are.' In this respect I hope many of our girls are following their example. Ladies of a class who would not like to go out as school teachers and telegraph clerks with us do soquitefeelv in America. I think the last school I was in before I came to Kirkcaldy was a black school for little negro children in the Southern States, taught by a young white Northern lady, wh«m we should think quite superior to that sort of work. I am sure our women have much to learn from the American women.

As to the men, I liked their style in manners and dress. There was comparatively little of the Yankee about them. I heard a story of my friend, Mr. Holmes, the member for Paisley, who made a tour in the United States, and when he got to Chicago he was very to 6ee a typical American

Yankee" with his slouched hat, big boots, belt with revolver Btuck in it, and so on. He could not find one for a long time. At last he found a man who exactly came up to his ideas, and entering into conversation with him he said," Have you been long here?" "Naw," was the answer "I'm jist a month from Glasca'." [Laughter.] Perhaps the men too have been somewhat affected by English criticism. At al events it is now the case that in ther conl duct they are exceedingly quiet and orderly, and spit to a moderate extent. In fact as regards smoking and everything of that kind, the American regulations are much more strict than oars. Mr. Trollope denounces the lower class of American men as rude and barb rous in the extreme. For my part, I say I found them iust the contrary. Wheti^ ever I had occasion to talk to any of them, I was always impressed with their civility, intelligence and education. I Applause.] One thing particulary struck 1 me, and that was the quiet and orderly character of their political meeting, I may almost say the dulness of them, for I think they were somewhat too quiet. They never interrupt a speaker, but always let him say out his say without the smallest hindrance, however distasteful his ideas may be to some of them. When I said that some'.imes they are very orderly to the point of dullness, I might illustrate that by telling you ot an American politician whom I met. H^had been up attending a political meeting at a country town. I said,/'How did you get on?" "Oh," he replied, "exceedingly well I gave them three solid hourt of tt, and they were as quiet as if they had been in church." [Laughter.] Upon the whole, my impression of the Americans is this, that in point of energy and enterprise they are rather above the average Britisher, but not above the average Scotchman— [applause], about, I may say, equal to an average Scotchman.

Further Testimony of Mrs. Oliver.

She Offered to Pray Him Into the Euglish Cousulship.

Washington, March 18.—The OliverCameron case was continued to-day. Tne witness said that in the winter Cameron sertfor her to come to his parlors at the Congresfional hotel. When she entered he locked the doors and kept her in the room all night. Cameron said she was to marry him, and she yielded to his solicitations. Upon cross-examin-ation witness 6aid she lived with Thomas Marshall Oliver as his wife, and had two children by him, though he had a wife living. He subsequently procured a divorce from his wife "and the judge told her it divorced her also. After the divorce, Oliver left and 6he never saw him again. For several years she was looked upon as Oliver's wife. The marriage was not lawful because he had a wife living when he married witness, who was young at the time and did not know anything about the former marriage. She had written to Oliver at several places lately, but did not know he was living.

At this point Mr. Oliver entered the court room, and witness said, "That is Mr. Oliver. He is changed somewhat, but that is him."

For five years, witness said, she held herself out'as Oliver's wife, in Louisville. He there left her and went to Lexington, Ky., where he married some one else.

The following lettor was then shown to her, and she submitted the handwriting as he a The envelope bo stamp, October 3m, 1878. Hon Simon Cameron:

Late as it is I will pray to God to have you 6ent t» England if you will marry me or provide for me as you would for a wife, as you promised me. You have but a short time to let me know, and this mission is yours. It will be granted tv) me because I pray for it. My prayers God always answers. Let me know justice to me and the fortune is yours.

Respectfully, MARY After reading it she laughingly! said "Well General Butler, you can't blame me for wanting to stir the old man up, and get him to marry me."

She said she had not shown the follow ing letter to anybody, or recollect receiving it

S. C.

In a letter to Cameron, Mrs. Oliver says: "I will accept $4,000, with the $1,000 I have already received from you, and when you give me the $4,000 in my hand, then and there forever all claims cease of mine against you." In another letter she says she will take $1,000 in addition to what has been received and a $75 per month position in a department. Without concluding the cross examination the court adjourned until to-mor-row.
