A colored boy was car rying a bag containing $5,000 of gold coin along Wall Street the other day and let it fall, the "yellow-boys" rolling in every direction among the promis cuous crowd, who promptly assisted in gathering the coin, and when it was counted not a dollar was missing. m The school attendance in Hew York State last year was 1,021,282, a smaller number by 10,000 than was reported for the year 1880.

There are 11,248, school districts, and 11,894 school-houses in the State. And yet over 9,000 chil dren had to be turned away on account of the hard conditions imposed for entrance. that in view of the suffering of the people of the South from the floods on the Mississippi the House had better attend to the alleviation of , that suffer ing than send a committee down to celebrate an occasion like this. Ap plause. Herbert, of Alabama, opposed the resolution as being a bald proposition to send a junketing expedition to New Orleans to join in tne iesuvai. On motion of Haskell, of Kansas, the resolution and proposed amendment were laid upon the table, 77 to 30. The Senate bill appropriating $20,000 for a statue to Chief Jnstice John Mar shall was passed. The morning hour was dispensed with and the House went into commit tee of the whole, and Kasson deter mined to have the tariff commission considered. Valentine antagonized this with the agricultural appropriation bill, and after a long discussion as to which bill was entitled to precedence, tne cnair ruled in favor of the agricultural ap propriation, and it was accordingly taken up. The amount appropriated is $396,880, being an increase of $71,380 over last year and $15,610- less than es timates. Aiken, of South Carolina, after an appeal for an appropriation for the en couragement of tea culture in this country, branched off to a general dis cussion of the question of tariff, advo cating a revision of the customs, duty and especially a reduction of the duty upon iron. Several other members upon the same text discussed-the tariff until the committee rose, when, upon, motion of Moore, of Tennessee, the Senate bill was passed authorizing the Secretary of War to use the hospital tents for the relief of the sufferers from the overflow of the Mississippi river.

A REMARKABLE STATEMENT. - r 1- In view of the recent remarks by Mr. Bayard in the Senate respecting the manner in which the public funds are voted away to pay for the junketing ex cursions of army officers, it is interest ing to learn that the inspecting tour on which General Sherman has now start fid will be the longest he has ever in- Attorney General Brewster has em ployed Mr. Wm. W. Ker and Mr. Dallas Sanders, two prominent lawyers, of Philadelphia, both Democrats, to assist bulged, that he will be accompanied by a number of ladies and civilian friends, and that during his tour he will visit the lower Rio Grande, view the beau ties of the Yosemite valley and make an excursion to San Francisco Phila delphia Record. him in the prosecution of the Star route cases. This looks as if he meant business. The enormous flood of immigration now approaching us has been forecast by February's arrivals. They number 16,751 for that inclement month, against 9,753 for the same period of last year, whose record has been unprecedented and was made at the time the subject of wondering comment. At this rate it would not be surprising if the month of May or of June alone should bring us 100,000 immigrants, or more than came duriflg the entire Centennial year. Pennypacker Nominated. Special to the Observer. Washington, March 7. Enos Pen nypacker was to-day nominated for collector of customs at Wilmington. IN CONGRESS IMPROVING THE MISSISSIPPI. The great destruction of property and the suffering and destitution caused by the floods in the Mississippi is a strong argument jn favor of the scheme of im provement advocated by the friends of that measure. The frequent recurrence of these overflows is becoming a very serious matter and one that calls for thoughtful consideration by the States interested and by the general govern ment. Jmt what the friends of the proposed scheme of improvement desire we do not know, nor the precise amount of money they ask for, but it is estimated at from $200,000,000 to 3300,000,000 which sum they maintain is small in comparison to the amount of damage that has been and will be done by the frequently occurring floods. What that damage is can only be roughly estimat ed, but it is safe to say that every one of these overflows destroys millions of dollars worth of property, and does damage besides of which it is impossible to estimate the amount in money. For instance, hundreds of miles of land on both sides of the Mississippi and on some of its tributaries are now sub merged, plantations completely covered, and many of them which have not been ruined by washes and debri3 covered over them, will be left in such a condi tion as to render their cultivation this spring impossible, were the waters even now to recede. They will be too wet to plow or to admit of the planting of the spring crop. So that not only the actual direct damage by the flood must be en dured, but also the loss of the valuable crop that would have been planted and raised had there been no flood. When it is considered how large an extent of country is in this condition, it will be seen that it means the loss of a very large amount of money to these people. The lands subject to these overflows are among the most productive in the whole Mississippi region, and would be immensely valuable were it not for the fact that they are subject to these over flows, which discourages investments that otherwise be made. Were farming in that section assured against the de stroying floods, thousands of people would flock to it and make it their homes who are now prevented from doing so because unwilling to run the risk of having the earnings of years swept away in a day. The consequence i3 that a country which ought to be very thickly settled is comparatively thinly settled, and its production though large, is not a tithe of what.it might be under a more secure state of affairs. The levees which protect the back country extend for several hundred miles and a break at any point, which may occur from slight defects at any season of high water, results in the flooding of a greater or less extent of territory. Without concert of action it is impossible to keep these levees in such a condition as to afford a guaran tee of resistance to the waters at all times, and that concert has never here tofore existed. The work has been done by States, counties, townships or ' parishes where the levees are located, and while it is so the danger will al ways remain. Even the people on the lands along the river were ever so willing they have not the means to con struct the works that ought to be con- - tructed, as the experience of years has " shown. It should be done by the unit a anntm of the States along the lower . te...s . on the Federal Govern- ment, which has an interest in the nwll as the States. - fr n - rich as that, as vast as not be, practically speaks, want of some system toprotect tgose-who make their homes there and. give their labor ana capiuw .w velopment. J THE SENATE STILL TACKLING THE CHINESE QUESTION. The House Chats About the La Salle Celebration and Takes a Few Tiffs on the Tariff Question in a General Way. Washington, March 7. Senate. Beck, from the finance committee, re ported favorably with amendment, his bill to punish unlawful certification f checks by officers of national banks. The amendment extends the provision, making wilful violation of the act of 1869, a misdemeanor, punishable by fine and imprisonment, so as to cover spe cifically cases in which anyone shall re sort to any device or receive any ficti cious obligation or pretended collateral in order to evade the provisions there of. Beck gave notice of an amend ment to the committee amendment striking out the words "fictitious" and "pretext." George introduced a joint resolution authorizing the Secretary of War in his discretion to use the hospital tents now possessed by the war department, to furnish temporary shelter to the dis tressed people driven from their homes bv the Mississippi overflow. Passed. Call introduced a resolution calling on ' the President for information, whether any representation has been made by the diplomatic representative of the United States at Chili, that the United States would regard with indif ference or consent to the dismember ment of Peru by the cession of any part of her territory to Chili, under existing circumstances, and whether any such statement was made with authority. Ordered printed. The Chinese treaty bill was again ta ken up, and Miller and Farley, of Cali fornia, and Fair, of Nevada, spoke briefly in favor of the bill, Dawes, who was then entitled to the floor, spoke at length against the bill. PJatt then obtained the floor, but gave way for a motion by Hoar for an executive session. Pending action the California mem bers urged that the bill should be disposed of to-day, and after a state ment that Piatt, owing to the condition of his health, preferred to proceed to morrow endeavored to secure a specific limitation of the debate, but unanimous consent was jiot obtained. Frye introduced a bill identical with that presented by Money in the Houes, for a fast ocean steamship mail service, etc. Adjourned. House. King, of Louisiana, "offered a resolution directing the committee on appropriations to consider what meas ures of relief should be extended to the sufferres by the present floods,of the the Mississippi river and its tributaries, and to report by bill or otherwise as speedily as possible. Referred. Robeson, of New Jersey, from the committee on rules reported back a resolution for the appointment of a committee of five Senators and nine Representatives to attend the celebra tion of the 200th anniversary of the dis covery of the mouth of the Mississippi river by LaSalle, to be held at New Orleans on April 7th, 1882. tfobeson said that the committee on rules was not sure that it had jurisdicj on over the matter but had determined to report back the resolution as serving to remind us that we have a common country, common progress and a com mon interest. Cox pictured the voyage of LaSalle down the Mississippi, contrasting the vast wilderness which was washed by the waters of that great stream with the grand empire through which it now flows, and concluded with an elegant tribute to the achievements of the great discoverer. Washburn, of Minnesota, and Lord, of Michigan, advocated the adoption of the resolution as being an appropriate action to be taken by Congress. uasKeii, oi .Kansas, thought that tne proceedings of the House this morning were a grave travesty on its system of legislation. The calendars were clogged wun puouc uubiness ana memoers were declaiming that it was impossible for them to listen to the demands of their constituents for lack of time. This in jection of such a mass of paltry inter ruptions was out of place and out of order. Taylor, of Ohio, said that he was op posed to members deserting their busi ness, and moved to amend by adding the following: "Provided, that by that time Congress has finally adjourned for this session. Gibson, of Louisiana, earnestly fa vored the resolution, dwelling on the great explorations of La Salle, who had endowed ' America with the riehest jewel inner diadem. Applause. Humphrey, of Wisconsin, thought The Marriage Bells. To the Editor oi The Observer. Last Thursday was a day of rejoicing congratulation and looking forward perspectively among many of the good people of this neighborhood. More than one hundred invited guests met at Mr. Andy Henderson's residence in Hopewell neighborhood, in Mecklen burg county, to welcome Mr. Edgar Henderson, with his beautiful young bride, back to his home. When at length the bridal party drove up at about 3 o'clock, the con gratulations and wishes for their hap piness in a hitherto untried path flowed in on all sides. The bride was Miss Isla Cannon, of Poplar Tent neighborhood, Cabar rus county, whither the bridegroom went the evening before and was mar ried at the residence of the bride. The first thing next in order was a splendid dinner, beautifully and taste- iuiiy arranged, ana wnicn mueeu uai fles all attempts at description. After this pleasure chased the hours away in rapid flight. Music and the dance led the hour. The young ladies, including the bride, were exceedingly charming, and when the question was asked, ' Who will be next?" several were ta ger for the lot to fall on them. And now, Mr. Editor, let up, the friends and acquaintances, congratu late them through your columns, ana wish further the greatest amount of happiness possible; and for ourselves hope that we will ere long be in their estate.

The Unusual Experience of Promi nent Man Made Public ' The following article from the Democrat and Chronicle, of Rochester, N. T., Is of so striking a nature, and emanates from ao reliable a source, that It Is herewith re-publlahed entire. In addi tion to the valuable matter It contains, It will be found exceedingly Interesting: To the Editor qf the Democrat and CTironide: Sib.- My motives for the publication of the most unusual statements which follow are, first, graU rude for the fact that I have been saved from a most horrible death, and, secondly, a desire to warn all who read this statement against some of the most deceptive Influences by which they have ever been surrounded. It is a fact that to-day thousands of people are within a foot of the grave and they do not know it To tell how I was caught away irom jus una posuaon ana iu want outers against nearing It, are my objects in this commu nication. On the first day of June, 1881, 1 lay at my resi dence. In this city, surrounded by my friends and waiting for death. Heaven only knows the agony I then endured, for words can never describe It. And vet If a few years nrevlous. any one had told me that I was to be brought so low, and by so ter rible a disease, l snouia nave sconea at me uroa. T had alwavs been uncommonly strong and healthy, had weighed over 200 pounds and hardly knew, In my own experience, what pain or sick nesa were. Very many people who will read this statement realize at times that they are unusuany tired and cannot account for It They feel dull In definite pains In various parts of the body and do not understand It. Or they are exceedingly hungry one day and entirely without appetite the next. This was lust the way I felt when the relentless malady which had fastened Itself upon me first be gan titill I thought It was nothing; that probably 1 had taken a cold which would soon pass away. Shortly after this I noticed a dull, and at times, neuralgic, pain In my head, but as it would come one day and be gone the next, I paid but little at tention to it However, my stomach was out of order and my fool often failed to digest, causing at times great Inconvenience. Yet 1 had no Idea, even as a physician, that these things meant any thing serious or that a monstrous disease was be coming fixed upon me. Candidly, I thought I was 8uHerlnK from Malaria aad so doctored myself ac cordingly. But I got no better. I next noticed a peculiar color and odor about the fluids I was pass ingalso that there were large quantities one day and very little the next, ana that a persistent frotn and scum appeared upon the surf acejand a sedi ment settled in the bottom. And yet I did not realize my daDger, for, Indeed, seeing these symp toms contlnutUy, 1 finally became accustomed to them, and my suspicion was whoUy disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in the affected organs or to their vicinity. Why II should have been so blind I cannot understand. There Is a terrible future for all physical neglect, and Impending danger usually brings a person to his senses even though it may be then too late. I m.i7 at. lut mv critical condition and aroused myself to overcome It And, oh I how hard I tried ! I consulted the best medical skill In the land, t visited all the prominent mineral springs In America and traveled from Maine to California. oHiiiiMBWiNii Na two nbvalctans aarreed &a to my malady. One said I was troubled with spinal Irritation; another, nervous prostration; another, malaria: another, dyspepsia; another, heart dis ease; another, general debility; another, conges tion of the base of the brain; and so on through a long list of common diseases, me sympwms oi ui nf ortiioh t raAiiv had. In this wav several years passed, during all of which time I was steadily growing worse. My condition had really become pitiable. The slight symptoms I at first expe ;arwui mni dAVAioned into terrible and constant disorders the little twigs of pain had grown to oaks of agony. My weight had been reduced irom oevi n i nn nonnds. Mr life was a torture to my self and iriends. I could retain no food upon my .tnmuh. nd lived wholly by Injections. I was a living mass of naln. My pulse was uncontrollable. In my agony I frequently fell upon the floor, con iQiiroiY Pinched the caroet and prayed for death. UAmhinA vinri hut little or no effect In deadening the pain. For six days and nights I had the death- nremonltorv hloooughs constantly, mj urine was ftiioH ifh tnhrt cast and albumen. I was Strug gtlng with Brtgbt's Disease of the Kidneys in Its 1 a at HtJXTAa While suffering thus I received a call from my noatnr tha tlow nr. Foote. rector of St Paul's Church, of this city. I felt that it was our last ln tAroi.w hnt in thn ranrse of conversation he men tioned a remedy of which I had henrd much but had never used. Dr. Foote detailed to me the it any rematkable cures which had come under his observation, by means of this remedy, and urgd mo trw it ! n nrnrticinir nhrslclan and a gradu ate of the schools. I cherished the prejudice both natnra.1 and common witn ail regular pracuiiuuere. nn Ha.MaH tha nt nnT mftdlplnft outside the noniar hannia hatn? the lfeast beneficial, bo solicitous, however, was Dr. Xoote. that I finally iad I would waive mv Drr judice and try the remedy he so highly recommended. I began its nn tha fir jt iv nf J ii tift and took It according to directions. At first It sickened me; but tb,ls I thought was a good sign for one in jny debilitated condition. I continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed and I was able to retain food Hum m atnmnoh in a raw davs I noticed a de cided change for the better as also did my wife and friends. My hiccoughs ceased and I expe rienced less pain than formerly. I was so rejoic ed at this Improved condition that upon what I had believed but a few days before was my dying bed, I vowed, In the presence of my family ana friends, should I recover I would both publlclyand privately maKe Known mis remeay ior mc smw ui humanity, wherever and whenever I had an. oppor tunity. I also determined that I would give a course of lectures la the Corinthian Academy of Music of this city, stating In full the symptoms and almost hopelessness of my disease and the remarkable means by which 1 have been saved. My improvement was constant from that time, and in less than three months I had gained 2 pounds in flesh, became entirely free from pain and I be lieve I owe my life and present condition wholly to Warner's Safe Kidney and Lvvar Cure, the remedy which I used. dlnoe my recovery I have thoroughly re-investi-gated the subject of kidney difficulties and Bright s disease, and the truths developed are astounding. I therefore state, aeiioeraieiy. ana as puj-sitiou. that I believe mors than one hat j the dxaths WHICH OCCUR JN AMERICA ARB CAUSED BY Wright's Disease of the Kidneys.
