EEE eee ee ag aaa _EVENING STAR. Cuchi Yon Poli HOUSE.—After our report closed, Mr. Swann (Md.) moved that the House ad- Tu. He thought some respect sheuld be paid to the anniversary of the birthday of Washing- ton. There was not a State Legislature in ses- sion upon this day, and he did not think Con- gress should be in session. ‘The motion was rejected—reas 70; nays 103. On motion of Mr. Dawes, the House resolved i'se!f into Committee ot the Whole, and resumed ‘the consideration of the legislative appropria- tion bill, the pending question being upon the amendment of Mr. Arnell to make appropria- tion for the Department of Education, and to strike out that clause of the bill which abol- ishes that Department. The amendment was debated at length pro and con. The principal advocates of the meas- ure were Mesrx. Arnell, Sargent, Roots, Hoar, Gartield_and Kelley. ’ The opponents were ‘Messrs. MeNeeley, Beck, Farnsworth and Law- Fence, ‘The amendment was adopted. ‘The House then ordered debate to be closed on ‘n!l paragraphs down to what related @ the Pen- sion office, and this enabled the Committee of ihe Whole to get through with three pages, and the Committee rose. ‘The Speaker appointed Mr. Hale (Maine) a member of the Committee on Elections, in ¥ f Mr. Beaman, declined. ‘The House then, at 4:30 p. m. 200 How Merchants Cheat. Tile New York correspondent of the Roche - ter Democrat isan experienced merchant of the metropolis, and thus exposes some of the wicked mallnesses which wholesale traders practi e: he business men of this city are very dishore t. ‘They have certain “tricks of trade,” as they ar called, which are nothing less than absolut stealing. Boxes of castile soap and similar geods are sold to country customers, who little think that they pay for box and all at full price. ‘The cheating on tare is outrageous. Tea in chests is estimated at 20 pounds tare, which is always allowed by the importer, but a country dealer seldom more than 18 pounds. On half chests 12 nds is al- lowed. while at the same time the dealer marks the chests up a pound or two. “this marking up of weight corresponds to the marking down of tares. Casks of sugar, which few country merchants can weigh, aré often marked up 3 pounds, and sometimes 50 pounds. ‘They tell & good story of old H. H well known grocer on the North side, who was notorious for his boldness in this line.’ The old man beeame at one time somewhat pious, and when in such cask of sugar ., if he “should go it 2) “No. Johnny,” was the reply, “don’t » over ten, for I’m under concern of mind.” pounds. Molasses, spirits, turpentine, and other liquids are gauged up, which is very easily done. An original gauge mark of say 31 ms, can be easily altered into 34, by using a ganger’s “seube” in a neat manner. If that is not enough aturn of the seube can change the 31 into 35. As a general rule with mane Cale, from one to three gallons are in each cask. Provision dealers steal in a different manner. Barrels of mackerel are opened in the bottom by and from twenty to thirty pounds are re- moved, and the space filled up with salt. When ihe retailer i the barrel he always takes the top bead, and here ail looks right; but when he gets tothe bottom he finds a bushel more of salt than he expected. Pork and beef also thus stolen, and hence our Gov nt ies are often short, and men suffer severely nsequence. I have referred to but a few of the different branches of robbery perpetrated g what are called honorable men, for a statement would fill a volume. One turther instance may be cited, and this is the fraud in essential oils. It is next to impossible tor amy druggist to buy a pure article of oil jJemon, oi] bergamot, oil organum, or any simi- lar oils. The reason of this is that spirits of turpentine mixes so naturally with these articles that detection is almost impossible. In these vils our wholesale druggists make enormous protits. ‘Carrying out this idea, a bold contrived not only to cheat country customers, but also to tieece the trade at large. To do this he employed machinist to imitate the metalic seals which the manntacturers ‘put upon the cans. These cans he would unsolder, and then steal about one-tenth of the oil, and fill it up with spirits of turpentine, and then employ the counterfeit seal. These cans would then go into the hands of a drog broker, and would be sold to the trade 88 pure Irom the distiller’s hands.€he operator Ikuew well. He is nothing but a thief, and yet imsecicty he is a “gentleman.” He has a tine house snd lives in style, but retribution may yet reach him, and though 'slow, it , We lay before our readers, that of adrunken father sealing his infant child. On Monday even- ing, Valentine Klein, a butcher, came to hishome ou Pleasant street. about 6 o'clock, drank. His wite was preparing supper, and a pot of cof- fee was boiling on the stove. In the cradle near was the baby girl,seven months old. Three other children, hungry and timid, were waiting for supper, which their mother was preparing. ‘There was no bread for the little mouths, and Mrs. Klein asked her husband for some money to buy some. He answered with an oath and flew into a passion. The children, accustomed to su: h storms, .athered around the table. The mother turned her back to the cradle to wait upon hem. One of the children startled her with the ery, “Oh, mother, see what father has done te the baby!” She turned and saw the helpless infant struggling, the coffee pot ty empty upon it. She took it in her arms, wit! her tngers took the hot grounds out of its mavith, and then it cried. On its bosom and face the Loiling liquid had been poured. ‘The imbrated father was not arrested. He was too much stupetied by liquor to feel much concern when the neighbors were called in and a physician bronght. The innocent little suf- ferer lingered till five o'clock yesterday morn- ing, and then died. ‘Bwo officers arrested the father in Findlay Market about ten o'clock yes- terday Last night he was still locked reet Station, on the charge of he little corpse. little brotty ef the dead child testis that “Father ing afuse with mother because she as! for a quarter to buy bread; and that when hy back was turned father threw the pot of hut cofttee in the cradie.” ‘The father testified.
