Ocean travel a mania with her, aud having receiv- ed from a brother a fortune of $500,- 000 she spent her time thereaft almost entirely in passing back anc forth across the Atlantic, She had the remarkable record of having been on every trip ever made ocean. i & passenger by the Lucania up to the date of her death. Sbe had made the acquaint- ance and was on quite familiar terms with many of the wealthy New York families who traveled to and from Europe, including the Astors s Vanderbilts. She had the respect and confidence of the crew of the steamer to that extent that her flag will float at ha’f mast on the next voyage. But what a life was that! Whom and what did this worthy old lady thiok of but her own selfish de- sires and whims? Did she or her fortune do any good in the world? Little. Nodoubt she was capable of adding to the happiness of those who bad clauns of kindred. What a world of good she might have ac- complished, and what floods of hap- piness captured had she spent a part of the $300,000 or $400,000 which she spent in her selfish pastime to better the condition and lighten the burdens of others. Tue prevalence of the mob spirit throughout the Southern states is greatly to be deplored. Not a day passes but that one or more persons, chiefly of the colored race,are hanged by mobs in various places. In most instances the crimes of which they are accused are so exasperating as almost to excuse, if anything could excuse, their summary execution. But so long as the people indulge their passions in this manner to the and there | subversion of law order | will not be,and cannot be, cultivated, |a proper respect for the laws of the country. There is reason why men should avenge murder or other crime by becoming murderers and criminals themselves.

Great Britain and the United States promise mutually to guard the safety and neutrality of the canal, and to invite all other nations to do the same. 4. Great Britain States promise to exe: support and prote: tiow to any 8 factory company which may under- take the work of coustructing the canal. Under this compact the company was to be joint control of England aud America, This treaty, entered into under the adiministra- tion of Zachary ‘Paylor, was one of the unfortunate diplomatic blunders ever perpetrated by this government. I’, has been an incubus upon the canal project ever since its promulgation, General Grant was en enthusiastic advocate of the Nicaraguan canal, and suid ina message to Congress, “IT regard it as of vast political im- portance to this country that no European country should hold such a work."’ And again, ‘In accordance | dar providing for public buildings in various sections of the country.

If the sen- ate wishes to kill time for the purpose of preventing legislation it should find a better way to do it. The Secretary of State was the guest of the Secretary of State-to-be (Senator Sherman) at this week’s meeting of the Senate committee on foreign , relations, and the questions fired at him about the different clauses of that arbitration treaty kept Secretary Olney busy for about an hour. There are differences of opinion as to what construction may be placed upon several clauses of |~ thetrea.y, and there is a disposition among senators to go slow in deciding whether the treaty shall be amended, rejected or ratified. Mr. Olney told the committee that he did not under- stand how any construction could be put upon any clause of the treaty that would connect it in any way with the Monroe doctrine and as- sured the Sepators that there were no hidden meanings concealed in the treaty. Speaker Reed had a somewhat unique experience this week, when hte | was waited on by a committee com- | posed of Representative Hicks, of | Pennsylvania; Curtis, of Kansas, | Hooker, of N.
