Mr. Gilfillan, the Treasurer of the United States, has a great inteUect,-and wears a nose of size and character. He wai have nobody witn aiconouc habits about him. A London letter says the very name American has in every rank and condi tion of life in England come to typify a man vrho adores aristocratic rank ; if a woman, a creature who would go on her knees for the privilege of frequent ing salons of the noblese. Several of the larger banking institu tions of Canada have branches in Chicago and one or two other points in the United States. It has been ascer tained that these have been evading the internal revenue tax, and the gov ernment will recover from them from one to two hundred thousand dollars. The umbrella China tree, it is said, outsiSe of Texas, is only found in East ern Texas. The , prose?ice'rof the tree was occasioned noewfcJiF captive slaves" who scattered on the "slave trail" the seeds of this beautiful tree which they .had brought over to plant with secret rites of voudoo worship. It is stated that-the special car, with Mrs. Garfield on board, had a most nar row escape rrom destruction wmieeu route to Washington. The parallel rod on the side of the : engine broke while making 250 revolutions a minute. It tore the side ties to pieces for two miles before the train could be stopped. Had the engine left the track the car would have been splintered to Kinanng wood, and all on board killed. Three Presidents of the United States have died in office. Harrison and Taylor died natural deaths. Lin coln was assassinated. Three Vice Presidents have become Presidents by the deaths of the Presidents with whom thev were elected. These were John Tvler. elected with Wm. H. Har rison in 1840; Millard Fillmore, elect ed with Zacharv Tavlor in 1848; and Andrew Johnson, elected with Abra ham Lincoln in 1864. The Chinese are pouring into Aus tralia at a rapid rate, and the prospect is that 20,000 at least will arrive at sya ney during the year unless a stop is put to the immigration. Thev are all Door and manv of them penniless. The majority of Chinese merchants and resi dents in Sydney are averse to the wholesale importation of Chinese to the colony, such as is now taking place. "When three generations of one fami ly hold in succession for over a century an office of trust the circumstance is worthv of note. Such has been the case in the Lewis family, as is brought to notice bv the resignation of John T. Lewis as Treasurer of ttife Pennsyl vania Hospital, which office he has held for f ortv vears without compensa tion. In accepting his resignation the managers fitly pay a tribute to the faithfulness, probity and judicious care of the four members of the family who have held the position since 1780. in these davs of change, self-seeking and too often malfeasance, such an instance is worthv of being held up to the no tice of the world.

Donn Piatt in Washington CapltaL I notice eoine the rounds of the press a most absurd account of how this dead orator of Kentucky got up and got off his electric bursts of oratory ; we are told that Tom wrote, rewrote, studied trimmed and at last reduced to writing his oration, and then committing it to memory, and practicing it m tne woods sought an opportunity among his boon companions to let on tne . nre-wor&s while pretending arunKenness. l knew Tom Marsnaii intimately ; ne was a man 01 genius, errauc. wmiui lazv and indifferent.

' The lie to this suiy story tne papers are spreading is to be found in the fact that his happiest efforts were drawn but 1 in- debate when the preparation charged, was utterly impossible. ;iie was, in fact, more or a aeDater man aa orator. .- ... What a keen wit and delicious sense of humor the man possessed! Strange to say, this quality of humor was npt accompanied, as generally is the case, with pathos, i nave neara rom, grana in his utterances, original, striking and wittv. but I never heard him pathetic. In this he differed from his friend and rival, Tom Corwin, of Ohio. Th&Iast named could pass irom laughter to tears, and from tears to the'wildest fun, with the ease of a master.

Tbm was engaged in the trial or a case somewhere in the interior of Ken tucky, when a decision of the Judge struck him as so bad that he rose and said: "There never was such a ruling as that since Pontius Pilate presided Qn the trial of Christ."

Tbe Manner, ttf FUUns; Them Under tneCenstitittien. It will be oi interest at this time to recall the constitutional and statutory provisions infe event of a vacancy in the office of president of the United States. Tha Constitutional provision reads as follows: "In case of the removal of the Presi dent from office or his death, resigna tion or inability to discharge the pow ers and duties of the said office, the same shall devolve upon the Vice President, and the Congress may by awnrovideror the case of removal. death, resignation or inability both of he President ana v ice-Presiaent, de claring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shall act ac cordingly until the disability De re- mnvttl nr a President shall bo elected.? Under tnis article of the constitution t Congress has by law provided in thpfi act of 1792 - - . ; fS "in the case or removal, resignauon or inability "of both the President nd Vice-President of tho United- States, the President of the Senate or, if there is none, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, for the time being, shall act aa President until the disa bility is removed or a President elect- ed." As the Senate during its recent ses sion failed to elect a President pro tem pore, and the House of : Representa tives; not having yet met, has not elect ed a Speaker, there exists no provision be in any way removed or disabled, ex cept by the process of election, which would not, however, he consummatea before the meeting of Congress. The provision on this subject is as follows : "Whenever the othces or president and Vice-President both become vacant the Secretary of State shall forthwith cause a notification thereof to be made to the Executive of every State, and shall also cause the ; same to be pub lished in at least one of the newspapers printed in each state. The notification shall snecirv that electors of a President and Vice-Presi dent of the United States shall be ap pointed or chosen in the several States, as follows: First. If there shall be the space of two months yet to ensue between the date of such notification and the first Wednesday in December then next en suing, such notification snail specify that the electors shall be appointed or chosen within thirty-four days preced ing such hrst Wednesday in uecemDer, If there shall not be two months be tween the date of the notification and the first Wednesday in December, then the electors are to be chosen in the cor responding period of the foilpwing year, except when the term for, which the President and Vice-President were elected would expire in : the following March, in which case, of course, no special election would be held.

If this town has a charactef 'wdrth pro tecting, we advise the city fathers to be looking after it. Such debauchery and midnight disturbances will gfet away with the good character of arjy town on earth, and we do-not suppose there ia an incorporated town in the State where rowdies are allowed; such unbridled license to 4o as they please.
