TRANSFERS OF GOVERNMENT BONDS—AN INTER- Est!n@ Decision.—First Controller Lawrence has decided an tnteresting question tn connection with the transfer of government bonds. On the 2ist of July, 1882, Paulina Garcia, a married woman, of Matanzas, Cuba, died intestate, leaving govern- ment Wonds registered ta her name. Her husband and three minor children survived her. The hus- band presented to the first controller evidence of these facts, and the sworn opinion of lawyers that by the law of Cuba title to the bonds in question vested in the surviving husband and father as guardian of the minor children. He held that he was therefore entitled to have the bonds trans- ferred to the minor children without letters of ad-+| ministration. The first controller decided that in such a case It was proper to make the transfer to the minor children, and that the accruing interest could be collected by the guardian. He held that the law of Spatn, in force in Cuba, controlled the rights of the parties in such a case, but that if the claimant had been a citizen of the United States transfer could only be made by an administrator ‘upon the estate of the decea: ASSAULTING A DEPUTY CoLLector.—Acting Com- missioner of Internal Revenue Rogers has re- ceived a letter from Deputy Collector Williams, of Ridgeway, &.C., giving detalis of an assault made upon him by W.J. Jounson, William Jones and C. B. Wooten, who fired three shots at him while he Was on the train between Columbia and Blythe- wood, and swore they would kill him because he had prosecuted the first named for violation of Jaw. He also states that on the night of the 25th ult. a_body of masked men attacked his house near Biythewood, and gave him five days to leave the country. Tue DEMAND FoR Goup Cerriricares.—Thirteen million dollars in gold certificates, in denomina- ions of ond hundreds, fifties and twenties, have been received by Treasurer Gilfillan, and the Bu- reau of Engraving and Printing has printed there- on the signature of Assistant Treasurer Acton. ‘These certificates will be issued by the treasurer to supply the demand until the Washington issue is completed, which will not be much before De- cember ist.

UNFOUNDED BEPORTS OF AN UNPLEASANT MEETING BETWEEN THEM—HOW THE “U. 8. MARSHAL'S” C1R- CULAR CAME TO BE PUBLISHED. A Srar reporter learned to-day that the pubii- cations of an Thpleasant meeting having occured recently between the Attorney General and Public Printer Rounds, on account of the circular Fespecting the duties of U. 8. marshals at the elections, which was'given to the public before it was intended, were entirely without foundation. The facts in the case are that the meeting was not between the Attorney General and Mr. Rounds, but between the former and a clerk to the latter. There was no harsh language The Attorney General simply gave a warn- trom the ing that in case of another Ileal printing office the inatter would be laid before the ‘sident. The reports that the leak in question was found to have occurred in the Department of Justice {s also incorrect. The manuscript copy of the circular was taken to the public printing office and a galley proof returned. This proot was taken to the Cabinet meeting by the Attorney General, where it was carefully considered, and everythis {nit which coula by any interpretation be consid- ered to show any partisanship was stricken out, and the corrected proof sent to the printing office, and from it the circulars were printed. ‘The first publication of the circular in a Philadelphia Paper contained the portions which were stricken out at the Cabinet mecting, showing that the in- formation was obtained from the ma nuscript copy, whlch was in possession of the pul int oMice. When clerk from that office protested that the leak could not have been in the printing office, these facts were told him, and fur- ther was said upon the subject. ———_-e-____.

How the Returns were Received. VERY LITTLE EXCITEMENT HERE—SCENES ON THE STREETS. It seemed every minute last night that tt was going to ram very hard the next minute, and so all. who ventured out carried umbrellas. Now apd then there was a drizzling sort of mist, and that Was all it amounted to, The threatening sky, how- ever, had its effect ia keeping people off the streets, There was no very great excitement over the elections. About the morning newspaper offices a crowd of several hundred people were collected during the early part of the evening, and towards midnight the numbers rapidly diminished until the last man shouted h:8 last hoarse hurrah for Butler, and stole away home. ANNOUNCING THE RETURNS. Returns from the election were displayed by Means of @ canvas and stereopticon, placed on the balcony of the Vernon buliding. The dispatches id not come in very rapidly, and the crowd was amused during the long “waits” by the exhibition of comic pictures on the scr8eu. The biggest ma- Jorities on etther side, as they were bulletined on she canvas, created very little enthusiasm. Now and then there was an attempt to cheer, but it hardly ever extended beyond the two or three in- dividuals who inaugurated the attempt. “How ts Pennsylvania?” was the most common inquiry, as the returns from the Keystone state were less satisfactory than from other states. The event of the election most commonly commented upon was Butler's success in Massachusetts, THE INTEREST IN BUTLER’S ELECTION. There seemed to be something humorous about it in the minds of the crowd, and men of all shades Of political opinion laughed over it. “He said he’d be governor of Massachusetts, and he’s got there,” was one remark. ‘I'll bet Ben. Butler is the proudest man in the United States to-night,” Sald another. “I'll tell you what,” said another Man, with a knowing wag of his head, “Ben. al- ways comes out on top of the heap.” “1 wonder ‘what the silk stockings of Boston will do now ?” said another. Such were the comments every- Where. Butler's election gave to those who wero Not well pleased with the returns from other states something to talk about without a wry face, and they gladly accepted it. Late at night the belated toper on the streets, as he staggered home, could be heard hiccoughing out a cheer for Butler. THE COLUMBIA DEMOCRATIC CLUB made its headquarters in the reading room of Willard’s Hotel, and held open unt late at night. As fast asdispatches were recelved they were read to the crowd in the hotel office by Mr. Dorsey Clagett. Of course, there was much good feeling among the democrats about the hotel. In several of the leading restaurants returns were bulletined, and each had tts little crowd, who celebrated the victories of different candt- dates w:th frequent libations. Outs{deot the places Where the returns were announced the streets were almost deserted after 8 o'clock. AT THE REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE ROOMS. In the erstwhile days when tidings ot great joy were in anticipation, the rooms of the republican Congresstonal campaign committee, and the strects near thereto were filled on election nights with a crowd, when numbers could not be est!- mated at a glance. It was went also to hear the exultact cheer of the victors resounding far and wide, until it smote the democratic ear, and fell as harshly upon it as jangled bells out of tune. There was none of this last night. ‘There were not at any time in front of the committee head- quarters sufficient numbersto blockade the streets or disturb the neighbors. It rained a little in the early evening, and this and not the greater deluge may have ‘been the cause of the failure to muster. In front the committee headquarters a screen had been placed upon Wittch, from dark until after midnight, the returns as ‘received were filyminated, “At the startin Jack Sprat style, these were alternated Hthia streak of good and then a silce of bad news, Soon, however, everything was going one way, and to the ever faithful the bulletins gave no encouragement. About the only news over which a cheer could be gotten up were those recelved from Virginia, and these were given with a reser- vation, for the men expected to do the cheer- ing had been too heavily muleted by the Virginia nator, ‘The real sensation of the night came when a dis- patch was thrown out announcing Gen. Butler's election. Some of the “boys” were {nclined to give old Ben. a send off, for not a few were really glad he had pulled through. When Robes on’s defeat in New Jersey was bulletined, there were many who openly sald they were glad of tt, and there were a few who made open manifestations of ret. There was no music at headquarters; no enthusiasm—no ‘nothing—save bad luck ana wore tidings. of THE SORNES INSIDE. Inside the butiding there was the same funereal condition of things. The banner was ready upon which to emblazon further republican victories, which started with Maine and stopped at Oregon. ‘The banner was not further used. The old sign in the treasurer's office, “No Conundrums An- swered Here,” wasin its place, making seeming Grimaces at the crowd. Upstairs Secretary Hen- derson received the Associated Press returis by a wire run into his office. There he carefully read and carefully edited and gave out such as he deemed suitable. A stereopticon was in the room to throw upon the screen outside the bulletins. When a crumb of comfort came along Col. Henderson would say: ‘Ah, this ts sumething good. Throw this on the screen quick.” ‘There was, however, but little repetition of this, for the bad news so overbulanced the good that there was no use of holding it back. Asalds in his solemn work, for the result made it solemu, the colonel was by one or two clerks who looked as if they had been summoned from the cave of gloom. No one seemed inclined to laugh. The night wore on heavily, and at midnight a few lin- red outside, still waiting for a cloud with a silver ining. The avalanche, however, continued, and about 1 o'clock the display of bulletins ceased. ——— Mrs. Scovitle Heard From.

CURRENT COMMENT. by Cable. SHIPWRECK. AFTER THE BATTLE. “Mr. irthur Must Uniead.” From the New York Herald (ind.) Mr. Arthur must “unload.” Let him be his own man again, and he may recover even from th's heavy blow. His mistake arose out of is amiable weakness In submitting to the evil advice of a par- cel of purblind political hacks whom he has the 111 fortune to own as friends. He must “unload” these people; we need not name them, for their names are in everybody’s mouth. So far as he 1s concerned the election means that the people want Mr. Arthur to be President, and not any “old man Of the sea” sitting on his shoulders or any bummers and hacks ruling him in the name of au- cient and injudicious friendships. Let ulm get rid of his “old man of the sea.” Mr. Arthur has still time to recover. ‘The peo- ple have punished Lim here and in Pennsylvania, as they have punished jobbing Congressmen and fat and insolent politicians in other states. But it the President 1s wise; if he abandons evil and sel- fish advisers; if he casts off intriguers and men animated only by blind resentmeuts and personal fiefs; if he determines henceforth to be Presi- lent of the whole country and not a mere tool of @ justly unpopular faction, then he may safely count on recovering the esteem and confidence of the general public. He will not be re-clected, but he may very surely, by a wise public policy, rally the defeated republicans, reunite the party for 1884, and enable it, even ‘if tt does not elect its candidate, to present a formidable opposition in ratic administration. out, either forthe re- President.

Is there any other re- publican leader who can do this? We do not just now think of any. Not a D. mocratic Victory. From the N. ¥. Tribune (rep.) The defeat of the Saratoga ticket yesterday was overwhelming. There will be no mistake as to who did it. This ts no victory achieved by demo- crats. Since the first ‘appearance of, the republi- can party in national politics there has never been a time when the democrats could command a ma- jority of a hundred and twenty-tive thousand in this state, or the half of it.
