Hon. Jobn Sherman, who drew the bill that was enacted into law by virtue of which un- expended balances of certain kinds of appro- priatiovs are directed to be covered into the ‘Treasury at the end of the fiscal year, and who ought to know what was intended by the law, took the view of the case that you have. He did, however, notwithstanding his opinion that unpaid salaries should be covered im, conclude, in consequence of the rulings of the Treasury department, to direct the secretary of the Sen- ate to draw his extra pay and to hand it over to me in my official capacity to covered in. This has been done in his case, as it has inmany other cases. 1 am not a lawyer, but if I should volunteer an opinion as a layman, I should go farther than either the controller or the secre- tary. I doubt whether even the covering in of this money without a consideration, and with- out legal authority or warrant of law, will place it beyond the reach of the les to whom it legally belongs. I think it could be reclaimed at any time hereafter in several ways, and even on the mere statement of an account by the de- vositor or his heirs at law against the United States for monies had and received.

In Search of Statistics, A MARYLAND FRIEND OF “THE BALD-HEADED AMERICAN EAGLE.” A little before 12 o’clack to-day, a six-footer, clad in homespun, and with hair fullof hay- seed, suggestive of the granges, shuttled into the room of Gen. Sweet, acting commissioner of internal revenue, and made himself known asa friend of the bald-headed American eagle andthe republican party. He evidently had something important to communicate, and the General, with commendable sagacity, told hin that two reporters were in the room, and if his mission was important, or of such a nature as to disturb the social or financial equilibrium, he had better chew his words as close as a board- ing schoo! miss would ler laststick of gam. Not at alltaken aback with the announcement he proceeded to “biz” in this wise: The Visitor.—Do you run this machine? Commissioner.—I am endeavoring toserve my Burlington, Lake Champlain steamers to Whitehall, rail to Saratoga and Albany, and day line of steamers on Hudson river to New York—$30.15."” Examining the rates of fare and routes as published by the Northern Central railroad company we determined upon the form rndi- cated in the foregoing. We were soon aboacd and progressing northward. Without any un- usual incident we reached Harrisburg, and had @ view of that wonderful chrome yellow, many gabled, ridiculous cottage that occupies the most prominent position in the capital city. We expected to dine at the exvellent railroad dining saloon at this place, but were disap- Pointed in learning that no time for that purpose was offered but that we would have “fifteen utesat Sunbury for supper.” As we contem- plated stopping over night at Williamsport, we did not avail ourselves of the privilege. The ride through this portion of the country was delightful. The mountain scenery, its pure and exhilirating air, the beautiful streams followed bv the rail, would afford unalloyed pleasure, if each ejaculation of ep cd was not succeeded by a mouthful of coal cinders, and if eyes did not have to quit their usual occupation on ac- count of the same nuisance. AT WILLIAMSPORT the Herdic House ranks asthe best, but its con- tiguity to the depot and the absence of sleep, resulting trom being within hearing distance ot whistle, bell and moving trains, induced us to go down town to the jon f Hotel. We found comfortable quarters. Arriving after nightfall and departing upon the early irain, we were not afforded an opportunity of viewing the city except en route tothe depot. Judging therefrom it presents many attractions and induced regrets that a further acquaintance was impossible. On arriving at the depot we found the entrance to the train there in waiting locked; but desiring to secure central and shady seats, points worthy of the traveler's attention, they being much more comfortable than over the trucks and on the sunny side, we bribed the attenaant to pass us through. ‘Having deposited our baggage aboard, we descended to the platform to prome- nade. Prevailing is degrading to the people. The Property should never have passed from na tional control, and the mistake shoukd be died as soon as possible. A Hesnayxp ——_—__see— The Wreck of the Steamer Eronsides, A dispatch from Fort Monroe brings the news of the wreck of the steamer Ironsides, near Cape Henry, on Fri ight. The steamer, which belonged to the Potomac Steamboat company, has been running recently between Baltimore and Wilmington, and went ashore on Hog Island shoals during a thick easterly gale and rain storm, and has gone to pieces. The crew were taken off, and the Cobb brothers saved the fur- niture and tackle. Capt. Carter went to Nor. folk to get, wreckers to try to save tho engine and boilers. The Ironsides was a side-wheel iron steamer, of about a thousand tons, and was built in Wilmington, Del., in 1866. The vessel will probably be a total loss, although efforts will be made to save her machinery. She was a remarkably fine boat of her class, and for sev- eral years ran on the Potomac river. Durin the summer she was on the route between Phil- adelphia, New Castle and Cape May, but was withdrawn from it with the slackening of travel, and had since been engaged in running a south: ern coastwise trade m New York. She was probably on the way to or from Wilmington, N. C., when the disaster occurred. prevent the vessels from going, : -~ a The New Masonic Temple in Phila. de i, Pritapecrnta, The new Masonic temple was thrown open last evening to officers ot Knights Templar and grand lodges.

The demand is so ten thousand could be disposed of.

It is not thought that any power has been delegated him, but whatever suggestions he may make in regard to the Min- neapolis prisoners wil! be followed out. From the captain of a river steamer, who had just arrived in St. Paul from Fort Garry, and who had had a long interview with the’ prisoners there, it was learned that they were lookin forward to an early release, and were in good spirits generally. Within a short time the sym- pathy of the people has set strongly in their favor, and the kindest treatment has been af forded them. The whereabouts of Lord Gordon are not precisely known. When last heard from he was about 250 miles from Fort Garry, and was traveling with a haif-breed in orte of the Manitoba vehicles. It is generally thought that he will pass the winter at some oi the Hud- son Bay posts. The - INTERVIRW WITH THE BROTRER OF THE MURS DERED KELSEY. A letter from Huntingdon, L.

A FLAXEN-HAIRED HEBE, A little further on, while the tank of the en- gine was being replenished through the open door of a rough cabin by tbe road side, a picture worthy of an artist's pencil or the pen of Dick- ens, was observable. Sitting in a low chair, with hands resting upon its arms, was a country maiden. Allow the words full effect,and imagine a girl of sixteen, with beautiful—not golden but en hair. uncom free to the winds in natural wildness, with a face of good ouiline, complexion unequaled by city art in color, with a form graceful in its natural contour, un- confined by stays or laces, descending to mb scarce disguised by§the scanty drapery with which she was clothed—so scant that midway between knee and ankle ‘nature unadorne was adorned the most,” and to feet--the truth must be told—of enormous size, and she is be fore you. This wild flower of nature, with head resting upon the back of the chair, eyes closed pedsedy eee 3 backward and forward with thc most delightful abandon, and singing at the utmost bent of a nasal tone that usually pre- dominates in village choirs. It wasa picture of uncultivated nature, pleasing to city eyes ac customed to lines of art. PROM “GLEN ALPHA” TO “GLEN OMEGA.’ We arrived at Watkins’ Glen at noon, ani entered a dilapidated vehicle, drawn by a stout horse, belonging to the Glen Mountain House. Through an ordinary looking village to the foot of the mountain, and we began the ascent, slowly but steadily upward; winding through tke cemetery; on past the ‘‘Swiss Cottage” that presents but few of the features usually ascrib- ed to those structures, and across the iron out some distance, disappeared under a heavy breaker. A waterman, who had been lookin, on, immeiliately raised a cry for help. and rushed into the wi » followed by one of the i i amp, who chanced to be at hand. They reached the Prince just as he was becoming insensible, and brought him ashore. Attendants from the neighboring Hotel des Roches Noires hurried to the spot with warm water and spirits, and, after severe rubbing, the breath and circulation of the blood were restored. His royal highness was soon able to return to the hotel, and breakfasted heartily, notwithstanding what had occurred. Two hours afterward, the waterman and others who had assisted were handsomely rewarded and thanked by the Prince.

Can you tell me ‘how much cornmeal could be saved if you would break up this distillery busi- ness?

He might or might not have kept on in this wise for a week, bad not the commissioner sum- moned the chamberlain of the black rod, and directed him to turn the visitor over to the ten- der mercies of some one who could give him the “* figgers.”” The eyes of Maryland ought to be directed to that man. BUTLER’s GHT.. ll River, Mass., last night elected fifteen delegates to th 0 convention, all anti-Butle mouth, Hawich, Pittsfield, anti-Butler delegates, and \ mpton Butler delegates. The list now stands, as far as heard from, 137 for Butler to 8 for Washburn. The Boston Transcript avers that Boston was carried for the Butler delegates by the aid of democrats, The Transcript also predicts that Butler will not get more thana third of the delegates to the republican state convention. Lowell is for Butler all over. The New York Herald says: There area many Massachu- setts politicians who would like to send him to a place of a similar name, parted in the middle with a little “h.” Lynn is pronounced ‘solid for Butler.” There are few people in any city in Massachusetts who have more sole than the —— of Lynn.

ILiinors Divorc ‘The Chicago Times of the 26th ult. reports the following case in tha Superior court of that city: “On the 25th inst a decree of divorce was granted to Jag J. © tis, on his sworn testimony that Mary, his wife, Was a cruel, hard-hearted woman, and had andoned him. Yesterday Mary presented an affidavit to the court, in which she deposes that she always treated her husband with affection and respect. She also deposes that her husband: knew where she was at the time of bringing the action, and that bis testimony in other respects isfalse and malicious.
